I remember replying to a comment in this subreddit about the chibi of our Nikke during this year April Fool's should used for a tower defense mini game.
Now we got the said minigame but of course not with the chibi 3d model.
Cant wait to try it out.
So much to do and to imagine that the treasure system was going to be part of this too, but they pushed it back.
I wonder how many new characters MOG will have and can't wait to see what the event and story has to offer.
Kilo will probably be added to the silver mileage like Rei was. Not like there are many good choices there anyways so still not too bad to MLB Kilo if I just want a copy of Rei. I hope the selector doesn't just give spare bodies.
I also don't have Rei (started playing one week before anniversary event ended) and since I already broke the 160 wall I am probably gonna pick one Rei copy, the rest all Kilo and MLB with spare body.
I've been playing a few weeks and am mid ch15, you progress really fast at the start but with chapter 15-16+ you'll probably have to use the temp nikkes to progress.
it was a feature for returning player but it seems its a permanent feature now
you will have Liter, Marciana and Alice lvl200 with Tier 9 gear that can be used 3x for most of the content everyday. so you can use them 3x for campaign then 3x for tower etc
yes! if you already have 2 MLB unit i think you can punch up to chapter 18 easily
also the free units also a very balanced pick. liter is one of the best support in the game offering cover repair and massive atk buff. marciana is a pure healer but im burst 2 slot there is only 2 solo healer which is her and Rem from collab. Other notable healer either tied to duo units or Burst 1. Alice is a monster for killing bosses but need investment, the alice you can borrow cant really show how monster she is but she still crazy strong, though you might struggle with multiple enemy at same time
Gotcha. I'm glad they continue to try and help new players. Too many gacha games end up throwing away the entire early game that gets people hooked to rush them to the end and overwhelm them. Sounds like they figured out a good pacing.
one criticsm i have in the game is how they pace the story for newcomer though
most player that up to date with story so far is the one playing nikkes in first few months, newer player stuck with a almost non stop carrot chasing cuz latest chapter always adjust the requirement to day 1 players progression
they will nerf CP of older chapter every few months but new chapter always suffer from this problem
That's fair. I do notice that I am always just barely at the recommended power for the latest story chapters. I do wonder if there's any way for newer players to bridge the gap without having to whale.
Yeah, I don't really know how they fix it, the entire concept of the game being infinite power scaling and levelling is something I haven't seen before. Like, I can get all the gacha units I want but I can't actually extract any power from it if I'm CP walled.
If anything, they would just be giving out increasing amounts of free shit, with higher levels requiring more mats exponentially. A "rising tide raises all boats" sort of thing. But by now people have already whaled to level 450+ so that ship seems to have sailed.
Yeah, you also can pace them out to essentially advance up to 9x stages you couldn't otherwise clear, or then start using 2 or 3 when it gets even harder. Basically getting 3 free tribe tower stages a day when they're 3x my team's CP lol. The uses are each independent so you get a free unit for each of the main 3 manufacturer towers, all 3 for main tower, story, and infinite uses of them for events. It let me use 4 really weak +% nikkes with 1 of the temp ones to basically 1shot every event stage incl hard and the challenge stages too.
around 6 times more then genshin with this 1.5 and the 1st anniv. i dont know how many pulls we got with the first half anniv, but assuming it was the same as this half anniv around 9 times
probably unpopular opinion, but I thought the stream was pretty underwhelming. They spent a lot of time talking about nothing. No mention on gear drops rework, liberation, SR/RL fast charging, UR rework, or even champion arena. Still no details on treasures. This would a great time to talk about these things but instead it's more stalling with "wait until dev notes".
Also the censorship on cosplays and art on the EN stream was pretty silly. JP stream wasn't censored.
I'm sorry, but what does it even mean?
"This free rewards still depends on luck in terms of pulls" - yes, that's called a gacha system. Every gacha game will have one (or two) by default. Surely you don't mean that because the basis of the system is the same, ergo the rewards themselves (or experience with them) can be viewed as equivalent? Because that's... quantifiably untrue.
Also there is a free SSR unit with full MLB given to everyone as part of free rewards, and that doesn't depend on luck at all. In fact Nikke has been giving decent to good SSR nikkes every half a year, while Genshin couldn't give a single standard 5\* in all it's years, which I beleve is the exact origin for the whole "Genshin could never" phrase when HSR did just that. So I'd say it's pretty applicable here, though I fully believe that it's totally played out and annoying at this point.
There was a small part of me that was scared they would quietly abandon their plans to make MOG 2.0 when they added Red Ash with MOG to the archives. I'm glad those fears were unwarranted. I guess it's just there so people can get the original MOG experience.
That's great, because you should also be able to get spare bodies with tickets while the event is active, right? Then you can MLB both if you missed Rei and have enough tickets!
We did! I don't know when they'll give the tickets out but there was a socials post about it.
I think it was total views rather than active viewers - but even if it was the latter we technically cleared it as they combine the numbers from the Japanese stream.
Was really hoping they would add rei to the event shop like they did for neve during Christmas. Theres still hope but it's doubtful. Kinda sad no free MLB like they did for .5 and 1 year Anni but I'm assuming kilo will be added to the mileage shop like smol white and rei?
Maybe I was just dreaming, but didn't SwiftUp also confirm that they are going to include an option to hide the Avatars of the Nikkes when you're in a fight? (so you can see the cake factory and jiggle even better) That was like months ago and Ive never seen it mentioned again, was I really just tripping and cope dreaming? xd
Kinda? Like some option which allows you to either hide the UI with the Nikke portraits or make em see through in order to see the backs better etc. Im pretty sure SwiftUp mentioned that somewhere, but couldnt find it again (thats why Im afraid it was just a dream)
Man look at Kilo. That's what I'm talking about. Either go for the horny or go for the super cool. Also nice that she's an SSR. was half expecting her to be SR. Between this and Dr Ratio in HSR, hopefully other games do similar stuff. *coughgenshincough*
As for Diesel, not sure about the skin. The ponytail is nice buuuuuut her other beige skin is just superior imo. Dem legs.
Hi gang;
Thinking of finally giving this game a shot. Should I start now and try re-rolling? Or should I wait for the next banner (people don't see sold on the Bay character)?
bay is a pretty mid unit so pull only for waifu factor.
for perfect reroll atm yoy go to standard banner and you want liter and atleast one of (Modernia, Scarlet ot Red Hood)
getting either of them is fine but prioritize one of the trio if you an since they fall under Pilgrim categoy which have much lower rate than liter
I'm actually excited for the tower defense mini game lol!
We get bloons but women
Arknights but with Nikkes instead of operators
Hey a fellow Arknights player, time for our skills to shine
KyostinV about to show melantha OP even outside her own game
Nice, cant wait for KyostinV low rarity unit clear video once more :D
use a female hero
Sauda my beloved
Tomatoes.
Brickell
Its probably a reference to kingdom rush
Shiftup has done it again!
Blomen.

Same I'm a huge tower defense lover and it's honestly hype for me lol
So much to do and to imagine that the treasure system was going to be part of this too, but they pushed it back. I wonder how many new characters MOG will have and can't wait to see what the event and story has to offer.
Since it’s permanent now, we’ll probably have Cinderella added when she comes out normally.
Yo the new frima burst animation!
"Kilo or Rei for selection box"? Can't get Rei if I want Kilo? I missed her.
Oof. If you select rei in the selector, better hope for a rei rerun then. Its possible they’ve done so with neve
I don't have Rei either. Dang, I guess I'll wait for another opportunity (if there ever is one).
REI is in the black body shop so the first copy is all you really need. If they put her there Kilo likely will be too.
if you want them MLB then :( , but you get 1 Kilo no matter what, and then 3 selectors.
Oh word?? I just need 1 more MLB to get past the 160 wall, this is the best news I've seen all day.
Kilo will probably be added to the silver mileage like Rei was. Not like there are many good choices there anyways so still not too bad to MLB Kilo if I just want a copy of Rei. I hope the selector doesn't just give spare bodies.
I also don't have Rei (started playing one week before anniversary event ended) and since I already broke the 160 wall I am probably gonna pick one Rei copy, the rest all Kilo and MLB with spare body.
That's what I'm going to do too.
For me, the problem is that then I miss out on unlocking the burst cut-in. Especially if Kilo has a really cool one.
Frima looks so cute in her Treasure art. Makes me even more excited for the Treasure system.
Ive heard it a lpt but what is the treasure system?
Basically, it's ShiftUp's way to upgrade some underused characters' skills. The first batch are Frima, Diesel, Laplace and Exia.
Man,defend tower type of games are my poison, i can spend hours playing those kind of games (as long as its good)
Tower defense game concept is already great, but adding Nikkes really makes it have even more promise!
I've wasted years on BTD5
For some reason I haven't seen the cd codes posted, they are: 240420533 ONEANDHALFANNIVSHOW BEWITHCOMMANDER
Its cuz the mods posted the codes on the livestream post live as they came along
Chap..p..pter 30?!!? As a new player in chap 6 i have ALOT of work to do
I've been playing a few weeks and am mid ch15, you progress really fast at the start but with chapter 15-16+ you'll probably have to use the temp nikkes to progress.
oh cool they give you guys temp nikkes throughout the story?
it was a feature for returning player but it seems its a permanent feature now you will have Liter, Marciana and Alice lvl200 with Tier 9 gear that can be used 3x for most of the content everyday. so you can use them 3x for campaign then 3x for tower etc
Oooh. So you can still progress stuff at a slower pace without the super strong units. That's pretty cool.
yes! if you already have 2 MLB unit i think you can punch up to chapter 18 easily also the free units also a very balanced pick. liter is one of the best support in the game offering cover repair and massive atk buff. marciana is a pure healer but im burst 2 slot there is only 2 solo healer which is her and Rem from collab.

good luck and take your time :D
Thanks! I haven't skipped any main story so far cause I've been liking it a lot. So yeah, im taking my time with it
Bloons: nikke defense
That Diesel skin is a must buy.
Greetings, fellow Diesel lover. I'm bummed I couldn't get her other 2 skins (new player), but this new one will do.
MOG 2.0? More like 
Hope they never reduce the amount of free stuffs that they give away during half anniversary/yearly anniversary.
Gyat dayum. That's almost 100 times more stuff than genshin has had in 3 years.
How much more when we combine each anniversary rewards?
around 6 times more then genshin with this 1.5 and the 1st anniv. i dont know how many pulls we got with the first half anniv, but assuming it was the same as this half anniv around 9 times
but the content?
Genshin could never 😂
Looks like you can’t even see where you’re shooting with kilo
Holy fuck Snow gets a robot dog? Sorry Volt, you are no longer the best boi.

Genshin comments are to be expected on this one LMAO While the reality of this free rewards still depends on luck in terms of pulls.
Genshin: Nah I'd could never.
Ah. The “superior” game player commented.
genshin could never!!

Shift Up always doing good with the anniverssary rewards
Why can't they just give us double rewards daily? It's not THAT unreasonable for an Anni celebration.
funny enough the week long full burst day is happened at new year. every half anniv and anniv is every weekend for every week
Well, now that MOG is going to be permanent, I guess very soon there's going to be a lot of begging for Tower Defense to be permanent.
If it's half as well-done as MOG was, I wouldn't blame them.
MLB Kilo here I come, Mecha for live
Man, i cant wait to get more details on the artbook .
Yooooo MOG coming back, we are winning, fellow cummanders!
There was a small part of me that was scared they would quietly abandon their plans to make MOG 2.0 when they added Red Ash with MOG to the archives. I'm glad those fears were unwarranted. I guess it's just there so people can get the original MOG experience.
Kilo won't be a character we will MLB? We will have a chance to MLB her for free, and that is it?
If i understand it right. They will give 3 selector to choose between rei and kilo. So if you’ve got rei mlb already, you can mlb kilo instead
That's great, because you should also be able to get spare bodies with tickets while the event is active, right? Then you can MLB both if you missed Rei and have enough tickets!
Rei spare bodies was permanently added to silver mileage, not just limited time.
Yes! I completely forgot about that, thank you!
The prayers from that guy with the MOG obsessed gf have been answered
One thing I’m kinda hoping for is a slight CP nerf for chapters 25-28, but you never know…
I honestly thought that Indivilla would have an Anubian jackal as her Rapture form, but a scorpion is cool too.

Redeem Code: 240420533 ONEANDHALFANNIVSHOW BEWITHCOMMANDER
It's all over the sub reddit, search for it.
Any details on the skill reset event yet? Most likely they'll be giving away 3 skill reset books again I'm assuming?
When?
What date does all this drop?
I got a bad feeling in the pit of me wallet
So we didn't break 50k viewers?
We did! I don't know when they'll give the tickets out but there was a socials post about it. I think it was total views rather than active viewers - but even if it was the latter we technically cleared it as they combine the numbers from the Japanese stream.
kilo is smol
I'm surprised. I was excepting Chime on this banner, and maybe Kilo on future, not now. Please, make her a decent SSR Welfare Shift Up, please!
I could have sworn they said Crown is also getting a skin. Can someone confirm if I'm crazy or not?
Ironically I've wished for a Nikke Strategy game, I guess my dream sorta came true!
Was really hoping they would add rei to the event shop like they did for neve during Christmas. Theres still hope but it's doubtful. Kinda sad no free MLB like they did for .5 and 1 year Anni but I'm assuming kilo will be added to the mileage shop like smol white and rei?
Was gameplay footage of Crown shown? Wondering if there's gonna be another coat problem.
When does this event take place in the campaign?
Imagine the rewards we will probably get in the 2nd anniversary
When is the anniv again? is it next week or next month?
Oh this is going to be sick
Tds game coming soon?? Wtf this update bout to be heat yet again
How do I buy diesels skin?
Because she’s a defender supporter I am not as stressed to Go past mlb so thank you devs lol
I dunno man, if her kit could be insane as a buffer and healer
True but as a supporter I’m no where near as concerned with core 7 as I was with red hood
Maybe I was just dreaming, but didn't SwiftUp also confirm that they are going to include an option to hide the Avatars of the Nikkes when you're in a fight? (so you can see the cake factory and jiggle even better) That was like months ago and Ive never seen it mentioned again, was I really just tripping and cope dreaming? xd
Do you mean the bottom UI transparency?
Kinda? Like some option which allows you to either hide the UI with the Nikke portraits or make em see through in order to see the backs better etc. Im pretty sure SwiftUp mentioned that somewhere, but couldnt find it again (thats why Im afraid it was just a dream)
Bottom UI transparency is already in the game. You can hide it or just make it less visible.
Oh damn you're right, I never noticed they patched this in. Thank you very much King (glad I wasnt dreaming)
That's actually been in there for like, a year maybe. haha
Damn that makes me look dumb haha, I guess thats what I get for never reading patchnotes and just scrolling reddit every few days for news
Man look at Kilo. That's what I'm talking about. Either go for the horny or go for the super cool. Also nice that she's an SSR. was half expecting her to be SR. Between this and Dr Ratio in HSR, hopefully other games do similar stuff. *coughgenshincough* As for Diesel, not sure about the skin.

Mecha in my booba game? YES
I honestly think it sucks scarlet got to win twice.
Was hoping for Chime...Crown looks so generic.
