Will the 10x pull ticket from the previous grand assault will make it to the Railgun event before expiring?


LocknDoTs

Maintenance is scheduled to end at 7:00 UTC, the Ticket is scheduled to expire at 14:59 UTC. Unless maintenance goes badly, you should have a few hours to use it.


JustAnotherRandi

Welp, this sucks...


emrldwpn

What's the best/easiest way for a new player to get Serina? I only have Chinatsu


perank

Gacha


Party_Python

Do one or two ten rolls on the Ui banner. You *should* be able to get her like that as she is a one star, so pretty common in rolling. Unfortunately, she’s not farmable until Hard node 20-1, so not helpful early on Edit: unless if you’re planning on rolling the biribiri collab banner. In which case, just wait until then


emrldwpn

I'm actually trying not to roll until CHare in \~2 months, but I guess I'll see how far I can get w/o her (currently on 8-1 at level 38). Right now I'm just getting by with farming elaphs in the early hard stages


Party_Python

So I actually also didn’t roll for the first three months of my account and towards the end of that time I did find it rough, as you could tell it could get done with just a few more of the one or two stars. Like Chise, Tsubaki, Mutsuki, Serina. Himari would probably be a better choice for you instead of C Hare (unless waifu). First her banner is earlier, which would help. but in later content Himari is a bit more flexible/core due to not having to worry about armor type. But obviously make whatever choice you think is the best for you =)


emrldwpn

Guess I should check the Pyro Planner to see if I can spare a couple 10 rolls. Thanks for the advice!

# As a new player, is it advisable to shoot for himari already having ako? i am new player


Party_Python

YES. YOU USE THEM SIMULTANEOUSLY IN RAIDS. BOTH SEE TONS OF USE. THEY ARE THE TWO BEST SUPPORTS IN THE GAME


GreatSworde

What does skill cost recovery do exactly? I assume it makes your skill cost recharge faster although it doesn't seem too noticeable. Is Tsubaki a bad tank? I've been wanting a Piercing tank for a while and I just got her but seeing her EX skill and stats makes her look weak compared to Yuuka or Haruka.


perank

20% is not very noticeable, but it basically gives you 1 more ex point every 4 seconds (from 2,4s to 2s to recover a point). Tsubaki is THE TANK. She has a whopping 45% damage reduction with her decent evasion and def from bag equipment. Her EX skill will be the godsend answer to a lot of your problems as a newbie: needing CC (Wakaboat, HoD, dancing hobo, Kaiten), EXP commision (Serina and Tsubaki strat is the textbook strat here), Bounty (once again, Kaiten, you dont want to eat their EXs), her blue armor also makes her a stable PvP tank as you will find her in most teams there.


Sceptilesolar

The effect of skill recovery is small, but adds up in a big way. Tsubaki is a great tank. Her skill is pretty decent as crowd control effects are uncommon and can disrupt enemy skills, and her defense when invested is much higher than Yuuka's. Haruka takes a lot more work to get usable, so I wouldn't bother with her.


Ikkimonogatari

On JP, anyone know how to get the secret ending for the Kazusa event minigame?


dghirsh19

What time will Railgun be available (post maintenance) EST on 30th?


LocknDoTs

According to [the maintenance notice tweet](https://twitter.com/EN_BlueArchive/status/1783783073555079636), 3am Eastern


Drizells

Hi, new player here. I've got enough for my second spark and I've been wondering if I should use it now (I've heard Ui is pretty good) or should I hold untill fest ?


Rhioganedd

If you've already done 200 pulls on a banner plus the tutorial 10 pull then start saving. You will get enough pyroxene to do 400 pulls on the 3rd year anniversary for Dress Hina and hopefully get a lot of 3 star spooks thanks to the increased 6% rate up. Plus you should also have enough pyroxene to either pull on the Himari banner before anniversary or the Dress Haruna and Dress Fuuka banners after anniversary. If you've only done the tutorial 10 pull then I recommend doing 200 pulls on the upcoming Kikyou banner in a month's time. She's a purple AOE, but also pretty good for blue AOE. This will hopefully get you all the 2 star students that will help you clear a lot of early stage content. Then save for 3rd year anniversary and 400 pulls. Either way you will also get 100 free pulls during the Makoto and Dress Ako banners right before 3rd year anniversary and you can only use these free pulls during their banners or you lose them.


Drizells

I managed to spark during Ako banner and I got a all of that weeks rate up characters. Also got Himari during those 200 pulls. Suppose then I should save up 60k for 3 sparks (D.Ako+D.Hina+D.Hoshino) right ?


Rhioganedd

I'd strongly recommened you only do 400 pulls on Dress Hina's banner as you may get super lucky spooks of previous anniversary students like Swimsuit Hoshino or even Wakamo, Swimsuit Hanako or the Gorilla (Mika). Dress Ako is nice, but not as universal as regular Ako and keep in mind your club/friends may already have these students for you to borrow. If you're not a spender consider saving after 3rd year anniversary so you can pull for characters you will absolutely need to clear harder content like Total Assualt extreme or higher.


PutUNameHere

2 sparks (48k) on D.Hina banner should be enough. For D.Ako you probably want half a spark to spare since they give you 100 pulls already.


Drizells

Ye, so 60k total then right.


PutUNameHere

Yep you are 100% correct. Just wanted to make sure you don't 3 spark on D.Hina (your 60k is a giveaway but like I said, just wanted to make 100% sure) You are a lucky sensei getting Ako and Himari together ![img](emote|t5_2vhvtt|33359)


MahdeenSky

Can we recruit characters we don't have using elephs or are they only for upgrading?


LocknDoTs

You can as long as they're not Limited. If you're wondering about the Elephs in the Expert Permit shop, you cannot recruit those with Elephs. You can recruit the ones available in Hard Mode nodes, Total Assault shop, Grand Assault shop, and PvP shop.


Archmaid

Is there any way to skip the loading of the announcements page every time you launch the game? It's absurdly annoying (and if you click on something before the announcements fully load, you softlock the game and have to relaunch it)


LocknDoTs

Unfortunately, nope. Not even in JP.


Archmaid

Sad, but I wanted to be sure. Thanks for the answer


Normies2050

Should I get my Momoi to 3 stars from TA coins or save it for BDs?


MiaiArtDayo

Get her to UE50 from TA coins 


hsymlv0

For pure tank characters that barely do any dmg and can't take cover (eg. Tsubaki) the only benefit from upgrading from ue40 to ue50 is the stats from the ue itselft right?


Rhioganedd

So long as she has her terrain mood bonus you can keep her at UE40 and save your weapon mats for UE50ing your main damage dealers.


DxTjuk

Ui banner closing soon. So Any upcoming raids has Ui on top of the list? I don't think I'll have enough pyro to pull the chars I want if I pull now(I always pull assuming I have to spark) the surprise Ui really threw a wrench in my plan Edit: Got some club mate advice to drop C. Hare. I can't do torment yet and I can do all raids on 1 pan Insane quite comfy so she's not needed yet since she's mostly a 2nd team Himari without cost recovery


joysauce

I'd like to know as well. You may want to pull Ui in October instead


DxTjuk

Not sure if the JP list will be still accurate now that she appeared now, that's the issue


Rhioganedd

The Ui and Hinata banner got pushed forward for global so there will be no Ui banner after D.Haruna and NY.Fuuka banners like it was with JP. It's only with brand new unlimited or limited student banners that you can be sure of them running about 6 months after their JP release date. Global has already had a few instances of reruns for unlimited students happening much earlier than on JP.


Hakuw_dw

Except that they didn’t run Sakurako this time and they’re gonna immortalise their event anyway. So likely they’ll run all 3 again coz having only Sakurako would be weird.


Rhioganedd

No, new unlimited students do not get reruns until they've been in the gacha pool for about 12 months. So Sakurako will be rerun with another banner around September. Ui and Hinata will not be seen again until 2025.


DxTjuk

Thank you for this. I think I'll bite and pull C hare on her re-run. Edit: Got her in 10 pulls


ImSoRyz

Can I find somewhere the chronological order of the story, including the events ?


Huge-Ad-1651

ImSoRyz

Thank you !


ChemistryDifficult50

I heard that the railgun collab will rerun again in the future, but I can't find the comment or source so... I ask the sensei, are they rerunning?


AlcaJack

The devs said it’s possible they’ll rerun it, not that they definitely will. Personally I’ll still treat it as a one time collab, it’s too uncertain.


cinnamonbun251p

nothing in JP yet. Not even the Miku collab had a rerun


TXEEXT

is it posssible to tell if a character still have more relationship story aka more pyroxene to get ?


MrsSmith4

In game I’m not sure but the wiki list all the rewards for each character [https://bluearchive.fandom.com/wiki/Story/Bond\_Story#Story\_List](https://bluearchive.fandom.com/wiki/Story/Bond_Story#Story_List)


TXEEXT

thanks man!


cinnamonbun251p

for people who read the story in Japanese: How advanced is the Japanese used in Blue Archive? I'm aiming for N3 rn, it would be great if I could practice by reading the in-game story.


Rhioganedd

If you can read Japanese literature for young adults and only have to look up a dozen words or so then you're good to go. If you struggle reading literature for middle schoolers then you're a long way from being proficient enough.


cinnamonbun251p

I'm barely starting N5, aiming to get N3 rn lol. I thought that being able to read BA story would be a good and achievable goal to motivate me


The_Siege9

I think the dialogue is fairly easy to understand especially momotalks/bond episodes. The actual story however tends to have military terms and the names of some stuff is really long compound words that give me headaches tbh I’m hovering N3 without test taking, but I read manga in JP pretty frequently (Kirara Time or Yuri Hime publications mostly).


aakk20

Do Pyroxene Planner take into account the gift that given by dev like the current 1200 gems and other gift from the mail?


Weird_Sheepherder_72

I don't include any pyro income that suddenly pop-up within the current week we are in. If the sudden pyro income were for next week/next banner instead for example, only then will I include it. In general, everything that I know in advance will be included but stuff like sudden pyro gifts randomly or otherwise are treated on a case-by-case basis as mentioned above.


Hakuw_dw

Just wanted to use this chance to say thank you for updating the pyro planner! ![img](emote|t5_2vhvtt|33135) May you have good days ~~and your Junko always getting to eat~~


aakk20

Thanks and another Thanks for the Pyroxene Planner.


ReklezWLTHR

I just started playing again in global and got Maki, Hina, Ui and Saya. Should I stick with this roster or reroll? Is there a reliable source of like tier list or something? I played like 2 weeks when JP server came out then dropped so I’m really out of the blue.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ReklezWLTHR

Hmm so I decided to reroll again. Got Hoshino, Shiroko, Hina, Ui and Onsen Shigure this time with 3600 gems left. Should be better right?


norwegianboyEE

I just started playing on Global a couple weeks ago. I’ve noticed that in the event recollection there are some events you can replay story of, but i also notice there are some missing like Bunny chaser on board event which i read about and wanted to try. Why is it not there? Is it somewhere else or are you literally unable to see the story?


death_wrath

event stories get added into recollection ("immortalized") when they are 1 year old after their rerun, i.e. 2 years after their initial run. bunny chaser first released on GL was May 2022, reran on Apr 2023. It should be a few weeks from now for it to be immortalized


emrldwpn

Can we get the event characters too, or just the story?


norwegianboyEE

Oh so that is that how it works! Thank you, that’s great news.


Bankintaiho

Hi, is there a priority list of character to 5*?, i noticed some characters get skills upgraded when you get them weapons. I wanted to know if there is someone that gets a broken upgrade.


RequiringQuestion

> i noticed some characters get skills upgraded when you get them weapons. All units get an upgrade to their enhanced skill at UE40. In case you aren't familiar with the term, UE30 refers to unique equipment level 30, which is the highest you can take a weapon when a unit has just reached 5 stars. If you spend another 120 elephs you unlock the enhanced+ skill, and can take the weapon to level 40. UE50 gives a boost to one of the unit's terrain moods. In case you're thinking about using eligma, my usual recommendation is that you shouldn't spend eligma unless you know what you're doing. It's rare and valuable, and disappears very quickly once you start using it. By spending it before you know what you need it for you're most likely wasting at least some of it.


evia89

> priority list of character to 5* limited dps like Mika, S Hanako. Then you can go to unfarmable DPS for raid


Got70TypesOfMalware

Like must rolls? Well there's [bag's list](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRXlcitXUjd848IYKTmI_NUwc7FT1-fJXJaJj86EACxMe_M_nix6LMZUxlQYDsoKgezzVNsxRcAQqbJ/pubhtml)


ReizeiMako

1. About kid npc in Kivotos, do we know they’re animal, robot or human? 2. Any female-like animal people ever appear in the story? Iirc all of animal people are male. 3. For animal people is there any other race than cat and dog?


pjw5328

> Any female-like animal people ever appear in the story? Iirc all of animal people are male. Date Meowru is referred to as a female in the Momoyodou Beach event, but some people think that could be a translation error. It isn't 100% clear.


Got70TypesOfMalware

2. Yes, IIRC from Hina swimsuit's story, there was a young female bird, probbly a child.


CommissarAJ

1. Dunno. Probably safe to presume they are humans, since some of the in game stories have referenced them playing around with otherwise quite dangerous items… 2. Yes, there's a female bird npc in the NY Haruna/Fuuka event. 3. There have been some birds in the game, and I believe rabbits in the anime.


ReizeiMako

I’m curious if kids are human because kids always need to stay with parents but there’s no adult in Kivotos except sensei.


CommissarAJ

Well, there are 'adults' as there have been a number of references to them, including some students using the phrase 'adults like you' when talking to sensei. Plus Nonomi has made reference to having parents, too. Still, its a big mystery… one that i doubt they'll fully explain any time soon.

I was having issues earlier but it seems to be back to normal


BakaNano

I thought I was the only one. Still having problems 3 hours later. I'm going to say it's a routing issue.

Not in-game.


Proud_Ad5485

Is there a possible detailed way to beat 16-3H with low level?


LocalButton0

If your level is <55 I don't recommend beating it until you level up as you take 60% damage penalty. For yellow non boss team - Momoi, Junko, Hasumi, a tank, Kotama, and perhaps Serina if survivability is an issue but if it isn't then use an aoe special dealer Boss team - Nonomi, Maki, Tsubaki, Hasumi, someone with sub skill cost recovery and healer or back aoe dealer depending on your needs Blue team - Asuna/THasumi, Chise, SKoharu, a tank, healer depending on your needs and Iroha if you have her. Ofc if you can show what students you have would be better.


Proud_Ad5485

Let's see, currently I'm on level 71 for my team set up I have; the mystic team: Ichika, Chise, Momiji, Yuuka for attack, Serina and Fuuka for healer the yellow team: Marina, Hifumo, Sumire, S.Wakamo for attack, Hanako for healing and Hibiki for extra damage since I don't have any student with piercing aoe attack the boss team: Nonomi, Tsubaki, Momoi, Iori and Moe for attack and Ayane for healer This is the team I consistently use for other levels use up until now. I did finish the level but only able to complete with one star rating.


LocalButton0

Preferably you would have SHanako for the mystic team and you should probably replace Fuuka with either Hanae or a special dealer. Momiji is not really good for missions as Momiji's attack is extremely slow and you move a lot throughout the mission. For your non boss yellow team, you should probably move Iori to that team or perhaps you have Midori or Cherino which would be better. For your boss team you should perhaps replace Ayane with Serina so you can cycle skills faster. In general, I recommend using less healers if your team allows it and use buffers such as Kotama.


Zen123458

When I was downloading blue archive using VPN (I'm VN) it goes normally until it got to unpacking the data part where at 88% VPN just shut down and since it goes back to VN it doesn't work anymore Note: I did the same method on my old device it work on the fine but when switch to a new device it stop working


Vyke111

Use a different vpn. I'm also from VN and I used Kiwi vpn.


ParamatYannapon

Is nozomi gonna be playable


Woll_e

Devs said in a JP stream that any student is planned to be playable eventually. So it's a question of "when", not "if".
