Inter-Knot 40 is basically a soft cap. Your progress isn't halted, but unless you haven't been doing commissions for some reason, you're left with basically nothing but events, HIA, and Hollow Zero activities, and even then HZ reaches a point where the missions are too high in difficulty to face effectively. Leveling also becomes difficult, as the materials needed to take things past 40 usually drop in singles, and Dennies suddenly start pouring out of your wallet.
All coffee's should be unlocked around Interknot 20 ish. They will rotate each day similar to how Genshin's domains do. And on Sunday all of the coffee's will be available.
!For the music store! It costed 6 tuners per drive because you were focusing into a specific drive slot. If you allow it to focus randomly, it will cost the same 3 that Genshin's strongbox costs. Also, your first three weekly challenges of the Notorious Hunt will also award 400 XP each. You will also get 100 XP every five levelups of your hollow rank.
I once did something stupid in the hollow deep dive. I got an event before the final boss that made it so I couldn't heal. No problem I'm at max hp, I thought. Then I got an event of the abyss and I was given a choice and one of the choices was to fight it head on, but I'd be set to 5% hp. I did it cause why not challenge myself? I set my HP to 5% with no possibility of healing and then had to fight the twins with that team. Died twice but third times the charm and I managed it. Was the craziest boss fight I've ever done. Well I say 5% but I basically had 10 hp on each character, if not for the shield I got from all the upgrades for being reckless it might have actually been impossible. Felt like a dark souls boss fight lol. So hearing that the bosses get harder brings joy to my ears.
Huh, can you just retry the fight if you die in Hollow Deep Dive? You don't have to redo the whole thing? Haven't died once yet, so genuinely don't know, but that would be nice, that you don't necessarily lose the whole run right away.
@@jepeman It let me retry twice with no visible or noticable penalties though it didn't heal me or anything, just a reload back to the start of the fight. So idk.
@@jepeman area 3 of hollow zero rewards you for courting death by giving you damage boost. It provides healing though so you could run it with full health but the first buff the area gave you at the start would be pointless. I was in the same situation with soulbounddoll. My main damage dealer is about two hits to die, my support is on the same situation. It was a battle that is both exhilarating and exciting! The game allows you to retry. You could press esc (or equivalent on other platform) then just press restart.
I accidentally switched my only stun character in Hollow Zero and now my team is only supports. Worst of all, I had to keep fighting the Twin Marionettes for 6 minutes straight because they kept reviving and I had no stuns to stop them from reviving one another. I was only lucky when I stunned one of them and failed their revive on the other and I gave EVER SINGLE ATTACK onto it. Boy it was Rage inducing to see them revive ;-;
@@BlackPointtI’m at like 34 but I couldn’t play for like a week cause of unity crashing until a PLAYER made a fix cause hoyo just did nothing and blamed device specs even though most people with the game problem had good enough specs
Pokke did a calculation and it’s actually quite efficient to start farming Discs at IK 35 so you can start stockpiling good discs, and then when you hit 40 you can farm combat simulation. This is because the drops increase for CS at 40 bust discs only at 45 so utilize those 5 IK levels from 40-45 to upgrade characters more efficiently with better drops.
@@angelderp6689 its not that hard to hit the lvl lol, i do have a job and im lvl 38, just do dailies, spend stamina, quests, doesnt take that much time, since we have a skip button.
Yeah, it's pretty easy to level up this early, I work 8hrs/day and already 5.7k EXP away from lv40 lol From 50 to 60 is the real deal tho; 1.373k EXP needed just for these 10 levels, while we only need 272k to go from lv0 to lv50, say 5 TIMES less than the amount required for the last10 levels... Friendly reminder for those near lv40, do not use your weekly attempts until you upgrade the Proxy Rank!
@@f2pkx463 the flash freeze stacks. You know you have it when Ellen's weapon is coated in ice (also there will be little ice stars below her HP bar. Having three stars / stacks to keep up her passive is optimal)
tbh thanks to skill issue I rarely have more than one flash freeze stack up LMAO but despite being f2p I manage just fine by spamming E to make sure I have at least one stack if not 3. Moga's ulting, doing chain attack and using E so Ellen's passive isn't completely wasted butler tho... T_T
To be fair, it's easy to miss the Bangboo prompt because it usually only pops up in "Boss" fights, and even then it's not consistent, so one is not usually expecting it, especially in such a fast-moving game.
Yeah I somewhat agree : Pre-35, farm levels. Post-35, farm a bit of Disk Drives then spent the rest on either Team 2 building or improve your Team 1. At post-40, farming level stuff are more efficient as their drops improved (also Dennies gonna take a nose dive here). Post-45, welcome to the grind of your gacha life!
man i just reached lv40+ too in my f2p acc (with the help of 1-2 energy refresh in some days), this is where the real grind begins because all my resources are now scarce af LMAO should've started hoarding lvl, w-eng, and disc resources from lv30 since that's where the steep climb starts.
you can optimize your assist combos on super elite enemies by going dps stun bangboo support instead of dps support bangboo stun it gives you an extra assist attack.
You can also fill up the daze meter, trigger daze with support ex skill -> dps -> stun -> bb/support, this way your dps's chain attack gets buffed by your support's ex skill and you still get the support's assist at the end
My main farming is Agent Skill, plating agents(for disc drive level up). I may farm dennies soon. I ran out recently. Other than that. Once I finish max levelling my 6 characters. If I am not at Inter-knot level 40. I will farm agent level up mats.
Purples are only 9 Greens when each upgrade via crafting takes 3 on each level. I already prefarmed all the stuff for the character and W-engine upgrades and just waiting to hit 40 to craft the mats and go from there.
for anyone whos day 1 u do can get to lvl 40 rn, tho u do have to not let ur stamina caps and do basically every single possible quests and mode atm (im lvl 40 atm its kinda fire)
I bet Moga hasn’t even finished a single page of Mewmew’s Quests, or even touched the hard mode timed Story Quests. But it’s ok ig, he needs to pump out content somehow.
Imagine calling it hard mode, I barely notice anything different Level 41 btw and cleared Shiyu defense up to floor 14 with only 1 S rank character and the other 5 A rank, Ellen is the definition of stat checker, and we will get more characters like her that’s complete braindead to play with no combo needed and will clear Shiyu defense very easily despite being under leveled and under geared, truly an ‘action’ game of all time
I lvl 50 atm and i am so bored man. I literally cant even grind out disc drives or upgrade materials cause of the battery system. Ive done all the agent stuff, side quests, maxed out all my agents including their relationship. Im literally just doing dailys and collecting more s rank characters. I pray they make the next patch come out asap and remove the tv movement
It seems the game now wants players to focus on Disc drives once reaching IL40 since it seems like they give more/better Plating Agents when doing the bosses.
im about halfway to 41 currently, Infinite Abyss was exciting till I first tried it in 2 hour's, and the lvl 40 Hollow Zero was difficult, but its still not getting the itch I want
I feel like they should really increase the materials in the game in general if it takes a long time to unlock that difficulty, just 1 drop for the weekly boss is really unreasonable considering you will need 2 or 3 just to unlock a talent.
I have a feeling the game developers didn't expect people to hit level 40 allready,. Like you and I...SO i believe in the new patch update some more MSQ will be added. Doesn't make sense if they didn't. If they infact will not?!,. they should add some more stuff for level 40 +.. cuz right now, I'm kind of worried this content draught will happen again every 10 levels now XD
i play day one and used like 6-7 battery the game gave on early lvl up if you use battery every day and do every quest you should be 40 now but remember it have to be EVERY SINGLE quest
Always good to save it just in case of an emergency: for example, if there's a few hours until an event / challenge ends. but you don't have stamina to level up and clear it in time. A stockpile of resin / energy wills save the day
Hi here is a tip for someone who have trouble leveling up ( I'm lvl 42) you can gain exp by playing notorious hunt and on hollow zero (note that you can only gain exp on your first finish on the level) if i remember there is one more but i forgot
I’m level 38 as f2p! The thing that helped the most is just using up all my exp on those domains with max enemies it gives 1k exp! And I’m not even done with character quests
@@afton6444 on certain stages like events in hollow zero runs and in weekly bosses before the battle begins you are given a random resonium of your choosing and the red pixel heart(free revive)
what happens? the game becomes shit you can't farm anything because you don't have energy, you can't do endgame because even level 45 enemies take 2 hours to deal with and there is no story left. not to mention you can't advance the day whenever you want because Hoyo doesn't know how to program a wait function anymore
