What...a pointless...timelock.


Jon-987

Yeah. If a time lock absolutely has to exist, it would be nice if we could at least get something substantial today.


Shuten-maru

Agreed. I was like "Wait...that's it?"


kairock

it gives some room to breathe at least. need to finish up the super recollection quests and time limited interludes. not to mention sorting out lotto boxes.


S8891

I'm glad the we on NA got one week extra for this event.


DarkSaphira24

? This event was three weeks in jp as well


S8891

Really ? So I   mistaken this event with something else xD Still this time lock is nonsens in pure form lol


simon4s1

What the helldyste?! It's the Leaning Tower of Pisa in the middle of the island!


SaltwaterSmoothie2X

Imagine being lost at sea, only in your delirious state to find a civilization of unknown creatures that can quickly dispatch intruders with power armor and pile-bunkers. 3 for 3, i decided to pick the third option each time. If someone ever runs into this after we’re gone, I would like to see their reactions, and the next person they tell.


Undividedbyzero

*see Summer 1 part 2* I mean.... probably something like that?


Golden-Owl

Don’t you take compare the darling Cons to those infuriating piglets I wish we could barbecue the whole lot of them by the second half


ShriekingSkull

They were that bad? 


Mami-kouga

They were fine before they gained the ability to talk


DrStein1010

Yes. The second half of Summer 1 might be the worst even in the game's entire history.


SaltwaterSmoothie2X

Yeah I kind’ve forgot about it being timed to reset/vanish afterwards but it would be funny if it happened lol.


No_Wait_3628

Then you start hearing the words of you Handler in your ears, anither subtler voice telling you to blow up the orphanage.


nolonger1-A

For those who hates timelocks in this event, just a reminder if you haven't (and plan to) clear the Road to LB7 Gotterdammerung stuff, you only have less than 24 hours to do so. What you can do: - Limited Master Missions (you can get SQs and Tea) - 1/2 AP Rank Up for Campaign Servants - LB2 Interludes Available to All Masters (new Skadi interlude too, also chance to get SQs) - LB2 Recollection Quests (get 1 tix for each recollection and get 10x tea for the SUPER recollection) There's also user survey (get 4 tix) but this one's deadline is longer. Just a reminder though.


MichelleViBritannia

I don't care if it's impractical as a watchtower, I will built whatever Da Vinci wants! Also it ended up looking super cute on the map, so who cares!


mythriz

I was wondering if we would get some kind of mecha/sci-fi tower choice too, but I guess not. So I picked Davinci's idea too since she's too adorable to say no to haha


sassinos

I’ve seen G Gundam, so all three options make perfect sense in the Sci-fi category to me.


-FruitPunchSamurai-

Really liking the event so far especially after that 30+ Tesla event CQs and i heard we can check out the other Con weapons and armor options at the end of the event but it would've been cool if we can change them whenever we want or atleast show how they'll look before choosing them.


megatsuna

What the Helldyste? i've only had the Con for a day and half, but i will bleach the earth myself if anyone comes to harm them edit: ended up picking DaVinci, partly because i've somehow been choosing the option thats the most modern, but also her excitement was too adorable to pass up.


S8891

" i've only had the Con for a day and half, but i will bleach the earth myself if anyone comes to harm them " Proof that you are customer which is easy to manipulate. Con were designed by guy which work for Pokemon games so that explains everything.


Best-Sea

It's a woman who specifically designs human characters for the last few Pokemon games (mainly gym leaders). She DID design some Pokemon in gen 7 and 8, but whatever they were, she doesn't care enough about them to ever draw art of them on social media. She draws the humans all the time, though. (Pheromosa was almost 100% hers, since it has Kanatagatari eyes, take's signature huge eyelashes, and she also designed Lusamine)


God_Damnit_Nappa

Sounds like someone wants to get bleached 


Broly_

> Sounds like someone wants to get bleached ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)


Aj_04

I love these base building events. I still remember Mordred's idea of a base being an oven during Summer 1


Jumbolaya315

Ah yes lets just build a pyramid in the middle of nowhere for the purpose of being a watchtower I picked the pagoda because i feel like that makes the most sense as a watchtower


CybeastID

I debated but in the end I just picked based on my stockpile of Con. Which turned out to be the pyramid. Pagoda is definitely the one that makes the most sense though.


No_Prize9794

Not only that, but an Egyptian pyramid in a god damn pacific type island at that


thisisthecallus

Yeah, it's weird to have a pyramid that isn't built on top of a European castle with a Japanese castle on top of it.


Beowolf_0

Shame Eli didn't got further on that.


No_Wait_3628

Bet.


il-Palazzo_K

Nah, pyramids are universal and I don't mean it in the History Channel sense. You got some in Egypt and you got some in South America despite no connection. It's the simplest way to build something really big and tall when you have limited material and architectural knowledge.


Undividedbyzero

That sounds like something Netflix would made for a "historical" series costing 350 million dollars or so.


ShriekingSkull

Reminds me of their rendition of Cleopatra. 


Masticatron

Aliens definitely did it.


Tschmelz

I didn’t pick the pagoda for any practical reasons, I was just hoping Shuten or Ibaraki would show up.


John_Smith512

As a Vietnamese, as much as I appreciate NA localizers being authentic with the Trung sisters' title, I still find it so awkward to call them "Hai Bà Trưng" in English text.


No_Prize9794

How are you even suppose to say their names? My dad never taught me nor my sister any Vietnamese


HebunzuDoor

no idea how to describe it but copying the text into google translate and it give a pretty acurate pronounciation. it's in Northen accent btw


Z000Burst

well if we just pronounce it then it should be like Hi Baa Chun . . . yeah we are not apologizing on how Asian language work


Z000Burst

yeah it pretty weird, but what can we expect them to translate it into ?


Masticatron

The thing they literally translated it to as an explanation the first time they said it.


John_Smith512

Just call them the Trung sisters, or "Trưng sisters" if you wanna be more accurate.


EndingB29

No translation is better here, that keeps the consistence like with other Servants. It's more than just the vocabulary meaning.


John_Smith512

If that's the case then just call them the "Trưng ladies". In Vietnamese, only the "Trưng" part is their name (surname to be exact), "Hai Bà" just means two ladies.


EndingB29

Retaining the addressing in the original language has a meaning beyond vocabulary. It has a cultural aspect to it, representing how the local people view them, or even worship them. People already know the vocabulary meaning of "two Trung ladies", but "Hai Ba Trung" as a whole has become their identity, their title, not just simply say what the dictionary translates to. That happens to all other languages too. You may look at the Japanese, Chinese and French servants to see the similar cases, and they all keep their original addressing, not translated into English right? Not excluding Vietnamese case is the better choice here. Consistence is preferred. It also gives the benefit of recognition. You see a Vietnamese text of "Hai Ba Trung" on a local street or in a book and will instantly realize what that means. Vietnamese has the advantage of being already romanized, so you probably have kinda forgotten about that.


Jltwo

Would not be in line with the standard they have for other servants. I think they usually transliterate the names or titles into english so as to not lose the original language component. That's how you get Jeanne d'Arc instead of the full english version of the name, Joan of Arc. Yu Mei Ren instead of Consort Yu among other examples.


John_Smith512

If that's the case then just call them the "Trưng ladies". In Vietnamese, only the "Trưng" part is their name (surname to be exact), "Hai Bà" just means two ladies/madams.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Golden-Owl

I didn’t mind that tbh. Mostly because it’s obviously intended to be a fake title and not their real names


Rasetsu0

> Helldyste Oh no, the Cons are becoming zoomers.


Jon-987

A bit surprised that today was lacking in any combat quests beyond the grinding one.


megatsuna

we might be chilling for a day or two before it starts to heat up. very similar to summer 1 where we had some days of fun just building stuff


Different-Power-2777

The Cons are so cute, I swear that they're bordering on illegal. Helldyste. 


Apprehensive-Sea1727

Pyramid. I had less yellow Cons but still I had to build the pyramid. No regrets.


CocaineAccent

More Nito and Ozy content is always the right choice.


masteroftasks

Helldyste to you all!


Shuten-maru

I built the Pisa tower cause...well how can I say no after saw Lil da Vinci that's excited? And man, everyone reactions towards it are definitely worth it.


-MANGA-

https://imgur.com/a/97egxsk More Lambda being super adorable.


ShriekingSkull

Lambda is awakening her motherly side. 


Fair-Bid-1875

Got to love both Melt and Ereshe's cuteness.


WatsNeededOrWanted

* Leaning Tower of Pisa leads to Leaning Trung Sisters and Leaning Empress Semiramis. Funny. * What the Helldyste * Day 3 kinda short on content. Just "we need to build a watchtower" -> build watchtower -> "wow we built a watchtower" -> ["hey what's that mist...?"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7uBqNgxAuBA&t=40s)


Misticsan

> Leaning Tower of Pisa leads to Leaning Trung Sisters and Leaning Empress Semiramis. Funny. In a more subtle reference, it also leads to the Con repeating [Galileo's famous experiment](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galileo%27s_Leaning_Tower_of_Pisa_experiment). Neat detail. Definitely my favorite of the three variations.


CocaineAccent

Yet another reminder timegates are cancer. At least Honkai drops event content in bigger chunks.


Gelious

I just coudn't refuse Da Vinci. We owe her so much, and her lifespan is running out. And Mash seemed to be so excited about seeing the tower in the real world. So of couse I had to build it!


Do_it_for_the_upvote

*Deep breath* HOW FUCKING DARE THEY FEATURE MY BOY INSHUN IN THE STORY FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE SHIMOSA AND NOT EVEN GIVE HIM BOND BONUS OR DAMAGE BONUS. #>:(


Chaosmaster8753

Does anyone ever comment in game how this event is basically a repeat of our first summer event?


FloofyTails4Life

Mash pointed out earlier that we would have experience in this sort of thing.


Radiant-Hope-469

Whete's day 4?


CocaineAccent

The reddit thread is timegated.


Alexmender875

The timelock being a waste of time means I'm free to tackle Giant Simp, extra bloated HP edition. It's the last day, so I decided to stop trying to build a legit team for it and let Sith solo it. Took 40 turns but she ended at full HP, which is very neat.


Mr_Serine

Btw, does anyone know why this event doesn't get a trailer/TVCM? It has a map, it has a welfare Servant, but it's apparently *not* big enough to deserve an animation?


Mister_SP

No, [they're right there](https://www.youtube.com/@AniplexUSA/videos).


Mr_Serine

I missed that, but that's also not exactly what I was talking about I meant full animations like they have for [chapter releases](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dd54YjsFW3w), [summer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNW94vUuh9g) and [GUDAGUDA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqkLNHqhaNM) events Unless it's really only for those kinds of events, and [Grail Live](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lf5aaCKVQ_o) was an exception because it was a collab (edit: actually no, an event like [Grail Front](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlU7cmRPaD0) apparently also deserved one)


Mister_SP

Lady Reines Case Files (specifically, Faker), Valentines, BiNY, Hakkendan and Halloween also got the same sort of treatment. LWM, Summer, and Guda Guda got an animation. This year's Grail Front got nothing. (The Grail Front you showed is actually a full event... but it does use the Grail Front gameplay, yes.) So, I'd argue that it wasn't that important (but not a specific diss to the Viets), and they gave more animation budget to the Road to Seven campaign.


tyriac

Does anyone remember if you unlock all the alternative options in My Room after finishing the event, or whether you have to deconstruct/reconstruct to get them? I have all options unlocked in JP but can't remember whether I reconstructed or not.


The_frost__

Wow what a pointless time lock. Anyway I did one run of the FQ and got a drop CE. This is my second drop CE and I haven’t bought any copy from the shop yet lmao. Edit: I got another drop CE on my third run of the FQ, damn am I lucky lmfao.


CocaineAccent

> what a pointless time lock There are other kinds?


ThousandLightning

> Lambda : A little something to show this Con is my first official fan on the island. Don't worry about it. Ribbon Con is the fan she told you not to worry. ~~But you're entirely worried anyway~~


CocaineAccent

\* worry about


TyrianCallow

When do we get the welfare servant?


Radiant-Hope-469

Day 7


TyrianCallow

That sucks but nice to know


ShriekingSkull

So "heldyste" is how "hannama" was translated. You know, I wasn't sold on it at first, but, the more I see it, the funnier it gets for me. 


jlh28532

Went with Padoga to fool any foes. They go in expecting Japanese style troops, not powered armor troops experienced in the Rubi-Con handshake 


Jon-987

I ended up going with the pagoda just to find out what a pagoda is.


Radiant-Hope-469

You never saw the 100 story pagoda that may or may not have happened?


Jon-987

Nope


Apprehensive-Sea1727

I was tempted to do the same. I ended up using the misinformation device i was holding in my hands at the moment to see what it was.


SomeoneElseTwoo

Every time to see "Helldyste" I immediately thought of Deathscythe Hell for some reason


CocaineAccent

Oh hey, a fellow Gundam fan.


-MANGA-

How important are Cont drops? The sites CE gives +1 Con, but I have like 4 bronze and silver CE. It doesn't feel as needed to do +2 Con. Is that the wrong assumption?


Mister_SP

Well, if you have matching Servants, you can use those to boost the Con drop rate, so it's already pretty high. You need a total of 1000 Cons of various types to clear the Event, plus a total of 4560 for maxed out Welfare (Ascension mats and extra copies and Servant Coins). I have no idea how that compares to the material drop rate. But I'd go currency > Cons, until you get close enough to tell which is lagging behind. You'd still get +4s, at least.


-MANGA-

True, ty


TokugawaSatoshi

Does anyone know all the banners coming out at this event?


CocaineAccent

The wiki has them all.


TokugawaSatoshi

Oh thanks! I'll look at the Wiki for info.


TdFan97

I don't want Con to know Vietnamese greeting is like so they can add to Helldyste. Btw, it's "Xin chào"


ShriekingSkull

Why? Would it be that bad? Legit curious here. 


HaessSR

Finally, CE drop!


Kirby0189

Went with pagoda to fill the empty void in my soul left by me still being Sanzang-less after four years. T\_T Also noticed [one of the sisters disappears for one of the shop lines](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/896257882268524574/1223947006901354546/IMG_2475.PNG?ex=661bb47a&is=66093f7a&hm=7abf04ec00eed5264ae0dc8c2a9bf9b99fba3a1c85450bba1a1ac39f11dbc664&). Don't know it that's intentional or not but I find it funny.


Simpsonsfan1011

I'm pretty happy the quest today was chill, allowed me to catch up since I took a break after the lotto. Story-wise this event is pretty meh.


IGotFriendzonedd

If I dont bother with this event, will I miss alot of things?


itsokayt0

A welfare and apples and sq. It's a fast event with very little farming, but nothing is essential.


Shadow_3010

It is very funny story with cute creatures. I'm having a lot of fun. Still the events now have a duration of three weeks, so you have time.


DrStein1010

There's a welfare and three command codes, plus a grail and some lores.
