  • Phoebe A versatile player in the gaming world and a symphony of light and shadow

    In the game world, the appearance of each character is like a new member of the social system. With their unique skills and attributes, they try to find their place in this virtual social structure. Phoebe’s appearance undoubtedly adds new notes to the symphony of Mingchao.
    Phoebe’s skill system shows a typical social division of labor. Her absolution state and confession state remind people of the complementary relationship between different roles in society. Phoebe in the absolution state is like a main character focusing on output, while the confession state is more like a supporting character providing special buffs. This dual identity design gives Phoebe great flexibility in the team. She can be the main output or the secondary output.
    In terms of skill priority, we see a wisdom of resource allocation. The resonance circuit is given the highest priority, which reflects the importance of establishing efficient connections in social networks. The sequential arrangement of resonance liberation and resonance skills is like the investment in different stages of the process of social capital accumulation. The lower priority of ordinary attacks and variation skills shows that in complex social interactions, basic but stable actions are also indispensable.
    The choice of weapons often reflects the positioning of the character and the player’s strategy. Phoebe’s weapon recommendation shows a rational choice that pursues a balance between efficiency and effect. The exclusive weapon Luminous Hymn is like a social tool tailored for Phoebe. It not only improves her attack power, but also enhances the overall coordination ability of the team through special effects. Stringmaster and Rime-Draped Sprouts are like multi-functional tools designed for different scenarios, which can be flexibly adjusted according to the needs of the battle.
    The collocation of the sound shell reflects the accumulation and allocation of cultural capital. The choice of the Eternal Light suit is like building a stable social support network for Phoebe. This suit not only improves Phoebe’s core ability, but also enhances her role in the team through special effects. The choice of the Floating Star Darkness Removal suit is like providing her with an ability to flexibly respond to different situations. This way of matching suits shows the balance between flexible response and solid foundation in social interaction.
    The construction of the team is like building an efficient social network. The design of Phoebe’s main C team shows a collaborative system centered on the core character. The addition of Drifter Diffraction and Summer Sky seems to provide Phoebe with necessary supporting roles, ensuring the efficient application of light noise effects. This way of team building reflects the importance of role division and collaboration in complex tasks.
    The recharge system in the game simulates the resource acquisition and allocation mechanism in the real society to some extent. The recharge discount of the Treabar platform seems to provide players with a way to optimize resource allocation. This design not only conforms to the economic laws of the game, but also provides players with a way to improve the gaming experience.
    In this virtual world, Phoebe’s growth and development is not only a process of character cultivation, but also a sociological experiment. Through in-depth analysis of skills, weapons, sound and team matching, we can not only better understand the game value of this character, but also get a glimpse of the social wisdom behind the game design. The existence of Phoebe not only enriches the content of the game, but also provides us with a window to observe the structure and interaction rules of the virtual society.

  • Treabar – Effortlessly Completing High-Difficulty Dungeons in Genshin Impact with 3 Teams: Achieving Great Results without Relying on Aiko

    Hello fellow travelers, I’ve heard that many friends have complained about the difficulty of Level 5’s幽境危战. Especially those who didn’t prepare Adequan beforehand. So, I’ll introduce a few sets of suitable formations for average players. The characters in these formations don’t need to be highly leveled, and with a bit of practice, you can easily pass the level.
    First, the first set of formation consists of Genos, Kaliyugar, Kaliyuga, and the main character. The idea behind this formation is straightforward: Genos generates seeds, and when Kaliyugar activates the grass seeds, the little water men will attack the little water men automatically. It’s noteworthy that the small water men that the little water men release in the last 20 seconds should not be ignored. They don’t absorb energy; instead, they are used to draw fire. As for the white shield, its effect and durability are similar to a shield. All damage will be mitigated. If you don’t have highly leveled characters, you can consider adding characters like Elhazzen or Tenebre, who are five-star, or use Fire Servant as the main character. However, if you don’t have suitable five-star characters, you may have to face it head-on.
    The second set of formation uses Fischl, Bennett, Xingqiu, and Shale. The main idea is to quickly burn in the first phase, use lightning elements in the second phase, and activate all skills in the third phase for maximum output. Alternatively, you can consider using characters like Rikku, Vaey, Kroslan, or Kigyl as the main character to achieve the burn effect.
    The third set of formation includes Silica, Xingqiu, Zhongli, and Charlotte. If your characters aren’t highly leveled, you can replace them with Fennel. The gameplay involves using ice-elemental support first, then utilizing the freeze effect. When attacking the dragon, remember to give Silica the ice-elemental support. Following this procedure will suffice.
    Lastly, I want to remind everyone that currently, many players are unaware that the monsters in Level 5’s are actually specialized versions of the original bosses, essentially being a stronger version of them. However, compared to the bosses in the main world, they rely more on the water men absorbing water elements to restore their health, and they also open a shield. Therefore, the small water men released in the last 20 seconds should not be attended to; they are just used to draw fire.
    In summary, a set of 0+0 five-star characters may not be as effective as a six-star four-star character, but most players can still pass Level 4. For Level 5, it heavily depends on the level and operation skills. Especially for players with limited resources, it can be quite challenging. In my friend list, it’s only possible to pass with six-star characters. Fellow travelers, what formation did you use to pass Level 5? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, you can keep an eye on for more Genshin Impact leaks to stay updated on the latest news.

  • Feng Jin steps into the Starry Sky Railway, challenges fate, and achieves an immortal legend

    On this endless Starry Sky Railway, Feng Jin’s name is like a meteor that cuts through the darkness, shining but short, but unforgettable for a long time. She is not only the memory fate character with wind attribute, but also a peerless genius in the world. With her unique wisdom and courage, her growth is destined to be an extraordinary legend. Her road seems to be destined to go through countless thorns and tests, but because of this, she will write her own wonderful chapter in the world of fate.

    Feng Jin’s journey is not smooth sailing. Every breakthrough and growth of her is the result of countless choices and trials. She is not born to be famous in one fell swoop. Every breakthrough of hers is a challenge and transcendence to her heart. Like those fledgling heroes in the world, every step of Feng Jin is accompanied by an unyielding force.

    She needs 56 pieces of “fear crushing flesh and blood”, which is undoubtedly the first big challenge she encounters on the road of practice. Fear is a topic that every Jianghu person cannot avoid. Those partners who once fought side by side with her may be able to forget or overcome it, but fear has never really left. It is hidden in the aftermath of every battle and in the heartbeat of every moment. Feng Jin has long seen that only by defeating fear with strength can one stand firm in this ruthless world. She is very much like those young people who have just entered the Jianghu, with an immortal ideal burning in her heart, but being beaten by the reality. Every piece of flesh and blood fragments confirms her indomitable and determination in the face of fate.

    The second test that Feng Jin has to go through is “courage to tear the chest”, which is not only a challenge, but also a baptism. Every time the chest is torn, a fearless power is born in Feng Jin’s heart. Most people in the Jianghu have long been accustomed to killing and betrayal, but only those heroes who can draw strength from every conflict can eventually achieve immortal legends. Feng Jin’s courage is not innate. She has never sunk because of failure. Instead, she has strengthened her faith in every blow. She knows that only those who dare to face the fear deep in their hearts are qualified to reach the top of the world.

    And the rise of every hero is inseparable from the baptism of glory. Feng Jin’s “body baptized by glory” is the essence she has accumulated along the way. Glory does not lie in the praise of the outside world, but in the inner growth brought by every experience. Feng Jin’s glory is her persistence when facing difficulties and obstacles alone, and it is the result of her constant self-honing and unremitting pursuit. Just like every hero in the world, only after experiencing countless challenges and pains can you get real glory. And Feng Jin, precisely in these hardships, gradually transformed into who she is today.

    However, to truly achieve a great cause, courage and glory alone are not enough, but more of the expectation and pursuit of the future. Feng Jin’s “May the rainbow light stay in the sky forever” is the eternal belief and light in her heart. She knows that the road ahead is full of thorns, but she is willing to use her own strength to illuminate a path to light for herself, her partners, and the world. Her light is like a pearl in the world of martial arts. Although small, it is enough to illuminate the direction of everyone’s progress.

    Feng Jin is not satisfied with her current situation. She constantly seeks growth in breakthroughs. On this Star Dome Railway, every step she takes is an expectation for the future. She needs to gradually strengthen herself by constantly collecting materials such as “Fear Tramples Flesh and Blood”, “Courage Tears Chest”, and “Glory Baptizes Body”. These materials represent her lifelong practice and growth. She must use this as a cornerstone to gradually move towards her peak. And these materials are the starting point for her to move towards glory again and again.

    Just like a hero in the world of martial arts, Feng Jin is not alone. Behind her, there are countless people who support her, and the teammate who once fought and bled side by side with her. Everyone is a witness and promoter of her growth. And she will continue to fight with her partners on this Star Dome Railway and fight for her ideals together.

    Her growth is the result of countless personal efforts and countless choices. And she will eventually create her own legend on this road. No matter how bumpy the road ahead is, Feng Jin will rely on her wisdom, courage and glory to eventually create an immortal legend of her own.

    This Star Dome Railway will eventually shine because of her name, and Feng Jin will also write the most moving chapter under this vast starry sky.

  • From the complexity of Xiakong’s development materials in Mingchao, we can see the cold reflection of modern social system and alienation of human nature

    In this noisy and increasingly complex era, the list of Xiakong’s development materials in the video game “Mingchao” is like a complicated and cruel social microcosm, reflecting people’s confusion and alienation under the framework of modern system. Tide-eroded sail core, burning phosphorus bones, crystallized phlogiston, golden fleece, iris blooming day… Behind these gorgeous and obscure nouns, there are so many struggles and helplessness of tired souls.

    People often say that games are entertainment and pleasure. But if you only stay on the surface, you will miss a deeper insight. Xiakong’s development materials are like a silent satire, telling the invisible oppression of modern society on individuals. The abundance and complexity of materials are like heavy shackles, which firmly bind players in an endless cycle of labor and deprive them of the possibility of self-realization. Those “tidal sail cores” and “burning phosphorus bones” are nothing more than symbols of the red tape and institutional barriers in reality, which make people want to break free but unable to extricate themselves.

    The classification of materials – impurities, crude extraction, distillation, and high purity are metaphors for the solidification of social classes in modern society. Many people can only struggle at the level of “impurities” and find it difficult to move towards the realm of “high purity”. The barriers of class seem transparent, but in fact they are indestructible, just like the multiple screening and restrictions of materials in this game, which are suffocating. There are also scarce and limited-purchase materials such as “Golden Fleece”, just like the unfair distribution of resources in real society. The pitiful opportunities are as precious as Golden Fleece, which makes people envious and jealous, but unable to change.

    The design of increasing the drop rate of materials in the “Stuffed Meat and Tofu” dish in the game is like those short-lived and false “support policies” in modern society. They are bright and beautiful on the surface, but it is difficult to cover up the deep institutional ills. Players spend a lot of time and energy on this, but they can’t escape exhaustion and loss, just like people in reality struggle in the torrent of the system, but can only get limited respite.

    What’s more touching is that the material named “Iris Blooms Day” is like a blooming ideal flower, which is particularly fragile in the cold reality development system. It symbolizes the unattainable beauty and hope, but it is crushed by ruthless rules and turned into countless cumbersome material fragments. In and out of the game, how many dreams are trampled on, and how many people are betrayed by indifference.

    This scene reminds people of the “little people” in Lu Xun’s works, who silently endure the ravages of fate in front of the social machine. The players in the game are also the reflection of these little people. They are busy and struggling in the huge and indifferent system, but are pushed into the abyss by invisible hands. Xia Kong’s development materials are just like the endless obligations and tasks in modern society, forcing individuals to keep paying but difficult to gain freedom.

    Mr. Lu Xun once said: “Hope is attached to existence. If there is existence, there is hope. If there is hope, there is light.” However, in this complex development system, can players still see a ray of hope? Or have they been tortured by the endless list of materials and lost the courage to resist?

    When we are addicted to the mechanical cycle of “brushing materials”, we might as well stop and examine the real meaning behind this game. It reminds us how the modern system deprives people of their freedom and dignity, and how people who should love life become machines enslaved by materials and rules. Only by deep reflection and brave struggle can we break free from this seemingly invisible but extremely hard shackles and regain the forgotten “summer sky” – a free, pure and hopeful sky.
