Come for the Raifus, Stay for the Plot: Girls' Frontline - Baking Time

Reader mode
Copying from the Matsuda guide:

Almost all Shotguns use buckshot. Period. People who tell you to use slugs are retarded and dont understand how it works. Buckshot has +damage and +crit damage. Slugs only add a multiplier, but this multiplier is IGNORED for skills that use a damage multiplier (like M37's) as it isnt actually part of the damage stat, effectively counting as if YOU HAD NO AMMO EQUIPPED AT ALL for skills. Slug effect applies to normal attacks ONLY. All it does is compress your damage (which would normally be in 3 hits to 3 targets) to 1 target. It seems good on Saiga, but her skillshots count as skill attacks and thus dont apply the slug effect either. The only shotgun that has any business using slugs is USAS-12, whose skill boosts her RoF. Oh, and also Slugs dont have innate knockback at all, so that makes them shittier at tanking too.
KR wiki note on Slugs: "슬러그는 5성짜리도 장비 증폭 캡슐이란 멸칭까지 붙을 지경이다." : Translation - Slugs, even though being 5 stars, have a nickname of 'Equipment Enhancement Capsule'.

tl;dr don't use slugs
 
So how do tile buffs work in this game?

Is it like "(BASE_STAT + EQUIPMENT_STAT) x TILE_BUFF"?

Or is it "(BASE_STAT x TILE_BUFF) + EQUIPMENT_STAT"?
 
On the bright side i dont have 9A-91's dress but i have a nice new dorm.

I'd have preferred the dress.

Edit: Admittedly, it is a nice, cosy dorm.



(Yes, PPK is taking a bath in the washing mashine lmao)

So I was reading the dexcriptions of the new furniture set. It's...very obvious how boned the world is. The sense of pervasive melancholy is actually quite well done.
 
Finished Ouro earlier today. Turns out level 90 skill 10 x5 SR-3MP does hilarious things to pretty much anything she can hit, and the rest of the team was built to help her work.

Oh, right, Shrimp. I should level my own one past 30, come to think of it. Maybe for my third echelon after I've got my second to x4 10,000+ night...
 
Sounds like you have to build a team with her as a base then. Don't have any spares for her yet but I'll keep that in mind.

In any case, I managed to get my last echelon and dorm unlocked so I now can give 10 batteries to friend visitors

I have 4 empty slots so send me a request if you like.

Plan to do that myself over the next month or so, via tossing $40 at the game every two weeks when I get paid. Does it result in you having a complete battery at collection time each day?

No, dorms only affects how many batteries your friend gets from tapping your dorm

Like, if you friended a complete noob and tapped his battery charger, you'll only get 2. If you find someone who unlocked all the dorms and tapped the battery, you'll get 10

What makes you have more batteries you yourself can collect is the COMFORT level of all your dorms.

That's why you want the 5star furnitures since they can bump the comfort level to like 20k or something at max. I'm not sure though since I only ever managed to get to 15k with 10 five star furniture of the same set

Highest I've ever gotten is 15k. You get 10000 from the furniture, 2000 from set bonus, and a max of 3000 from 3 pet beds. Otoh that was with 4* furniture, maybe 5* furniture has a higher set bonus.

I've got 3 dorms with 12k comfort, now i'm working on adding pet beds to boost that figure.

Oh you found a job? Congrats!

I'm thinking of maybe buying the gem card at least. 30 gems a day for a month is a nice thing to have.

No, I'm sadly still unemployed. I just figured 40/per two weeks isn't too bad, as far as spending money on hobbies go, that's all. I confess it's mainly because I'd be tossing cash on gameplay upgrades, such as more echelon or medbay slots, vs potentially tossing it into the wind if I was spending it on Quartz in FGO or other gacha games.

I tend to think of 'getting money from Centerlink' as 'getting paid', even though it's receiving money from the government to help me find a job vs actual pay from a job. Apologies if that confused ya.

In that case I would just recommend getting the gem card. It's about $4.99 and gives you 30 gems per day for 30 days. It's not as instant, but it gives you a slow drip of gems that you can slowly accumulate over the month while you level up your girls and accumulate tokens for your dorms. Factoring in the gems you get from the login rewards (30 -> 60 -> 120), you'd earn 1000+ gems easily per month which you can put towards another echelon or for dorms and other things.

Then you can save money for the FGO gacha. :3

The quotes and furniture descriptions are great.

Both for helping to establish the tone of the world in all it's post-postapoc "shits all kinds of fucked and we've lost a lot of what we had before but it could be worse and sometimes things aren't that bad after all" glory, and for really helping to humanise the T-dolls.
