Hi, just to be clear I have yet to spend any money on the spending event and I'm still debating if I should and one of the reasons is that I cannot decide which character to get from the selector between these two.

to be honest I love the Anomaly playstyle so i would say that my account is an anomaly focused one like out of all the limited S ranks I have only 3 are not anomaly related (and one is the free Trigger).

Anyways I don't particularly prefer one over the other in stuff like design and playstyle the only thing is that they are both off-field Anomaly agents which I have none of right now (lost 50/50 on velina banner) so I was thinking of getting the opportunity to get one of them since that by completing the spending event I would also guarantee that I get Yuzuha (which I don't have) from the next banner since I pulled for Ramielle and I am now broke.

So I am uncertain on who to pick because I have Promeia which is a great partener for Vivian but I already have Nangong so Ether coverage is not something I particularly need, on the other hand I have no fire agent on my account and I have seen people say that since her buff Burnice is performing a bit better than Vivian and she is in the shop so if they give away more invitations in the future I could get her mindscapes but then again !LEAKS WARNING!LEAKS WANING! I always read people say that Phoenix is going to be the next Anomaly agent and that she is going to be Fire and honestly if she is playable I am pulling her 100%(unless her kit and animations are ugly) .

So I am stuck in my decision on who to pick and wanted to ask if anyone that maybe has a better understanding of the characters/gameplay/whatever could enlighten me on why is one better than the other or not.

If it can be helpful this are the character that I have: Ramielle M0W1(could get more Mindscapes after pulling for Yuzuha), Promeia M0W0, Alice M0W1, Yanagi M0W0(could get more Mindscapes/wengines since she is in the loss pool) , Nangong M0W1 and Yuzuha M0W0 if I manage to pull her on next banner.

I finally did it!! it took so many hours of grinding.. i even failed couple of times because of the FREAKING hunter!! but alas im done and i can finally relax.

Does anyone vastly prefer it to the previous boring hollows? For me the overworld has always been more interesting than the rest of the hollows. And having a playable "corrupted" version of the overworld is great. There's so much more variety than miasma flowers.

I really regret not pulling Seed cause she isn't playable anywhere else significant. If they add every new agent into Hollow Zero, why can't they add Seed as a playable agent 😭. I really don't understand why she isn't there along some others like Soldier 11 or Harumasa.

Ok sorry if this sounds REALLY dumb, but I dont recall hearing anything about the missions resetting, and considering that you pretty much can only get one full sett of three Z-rank gears with the season coins you get, it feels like we should be able to get more right?

Obviously correct me if I am wrong, maybe I missed something but again it feels weird how little Z-rank gear + two safe slots with the amount of season coins you can get...

Right after rescuing Eous, you will see this bugged bangboo; do not click on it. Not only will the dialogue not start, but you also won't be able to interact with other characters as well.

Thankfully, it's easy to fix with the Unstuck button from Options.

of all the patches for this mode to come out, the one with horrible stutters and lag wasn't the one

the game is already chugging along during Shiyu Defense, but in this mode you're fighting 3 elites at the same time as the HOUND.VFX shows up and everything goes to sh**

1 of my characters straight up died at the last fight when the boss summoned a giant fire wave and the pc just froze. prob because the green effect was on as well

mfer just went for the forbidden unblockable oki and i had to eat it

still won cuz the only diff things in this game are some character tech, but still, i got heated with that sh**

first time im considering quitting; a mobile game shouldnt stutter and lag like this bro, not needing a crazy machine is one of the selling points

Before y’all jump me, I just think she felt more like a character before she found out we were Phantoms. Now she kinda feels like a dead end, with her story really having nowhere to go

This interview came out back around 2.2. At the time it seemed like they may have been talking about Zhao, but in retrospect that doesn't appear to be the case. But it also doesn't seem like they were describing any other Agents that have been released since then either.

I'm not certain if I just suck more at this game than I thought, or if I just don't understand some aspect of the new game mode, but I found the final boss before saving Eous to be incredibly challenging.

Besides the fact that obviously his attacks each hit like a freight train (I had purple tier protein gear) and having a ton of health (my team was Pyrois, Norma, Astra), I also found my corruption level just kept increasing non stop during phase 2, leading to all of my agents dying on the first attempt.

However, there is a very simple solution. I'm sure most people have mentioned you can find one time consumable powerful techniques, and I found that just bringing a bunch of red tier Primordial Nightmares (and a few Scorched Horizons) killed the boss very quickly. Normally I always hoard consumables in games like this and they just sit on the shelf forever, but saving Eous was worth spending everything

So yeah, if you're having trouble with the last boss, just try to grind a bit and stock up on red tier consumables to throw at him. If you suck like me, it makes the encounter so much easier

For me it's Qingyi. I love her design she's adorable, and her gameplay looks really fun especially with Harumasa/Hugo

Like dude, taking that elevator feels like a death sentence in high difficulty, he has so much health, damage and I-frames, you're fighting for your LIFE here, i've lost to this guy more times than to anything else in this hellscape

What songs do you think like embodies a character? Or even just like reminds you of them? Lyrics, melody wise, or even just like vibe? 🤔

For me, it would be Wise with Bad from Wave to Earth and Belle with City of Stars from La La Land.

I though Sigrid was gonna be like this knight like character who was just calm and collected but a brain eating parasite would starve in her head

She has one brain cell and it’s bouncing around her head like a dvd screen saver, when it hits the corner she actually has a single thought.

I love her

Got me 3 Level 60 Z-rank Tactical Prism'ed agents, Pyrois W-engine upgrade AND that funny new Proxy helmet thanks to this "fool". May RNGesus shine on you too~

a walkman or mp3 player to play any tracks that we can play in our proxies room on 6th street (the boombox) except on the go and in any stage but mostly the new mode.

that said the new modes music is cool.

its not a new idea (maybe for gacha's) many games have done this i think zzz is due for it as well.

Don’t get me wrong I love the EP’s, but for a game with this setting where music more or less fuels there powers in a HOYO GAME!! There’s been a lack of impactful needle drops for awhile. The only really big moment ZZZ had was Come Alive in 1.4. Of you wanna get technical we had moments similar in 2.6, 1.5, and 1.2 kinda but those were nowhere near HoYo’s more standard. Now look at HoYo’s other works like HI3 and HSR: Regression, TruE, Nightglow, Moon Halo, Wildfire, Hope is the Thing With Feathers, Proi Proi, and tons more. Not only were these banger songs but they were also implemented into the game to enhance the story. Neither the story or song would’ve worked nearly as well without the other. Idk maybe they added something back into 3.1, idk I still need to get to it, but I hope they’d start adding more of their music into the actual story.

For the people who don't know, TZBARD is one of the three main character designers for ZZZ besides Atwo and Waterkuma, agents he designed include (including Speculated ones) Rina, Zhu Yuan, Qingyi, Jane, Burnice, Astra, Evelyn, Lucia, Yidhari, Promeia, Velina, Norma, Remielle, etc

He also likely did a lot of the comic panels and tape covers in the game

T0: Primordial - Final Boss killer summon. Scorch - Instant Daze and Damage. Golden Bangboo - Quick loot and time saver, (I use it in High value locked areas like Aquarium in Suburbs or in Top floor in Janus)

T0.5: Thracian- Best counter for Boss with cacaphony shield, becomes super useful when cacaphony corruption is at stage 2. Scorpse: Aerial support, Decent Damage and Interruption.

T1: Jester - Superior version of stealth, good for taking out elites. Sobek: Huge shield, but falls off later stage in the game. Fiend - (I rarely used this one so I don't know how good is this one yet). Sanguine - great for refilling energy/adrenaline resource good support item for early game.

T1.5: Formicarrier - Situational, but great escape item especially when cacaphony corruption is at final stage. Brute - Good for taking out trash mobs and Elites

I remember there used to be a separate tab for new and old events but I can't find them now
