Observation on Nodoka's AI attack patterns:

Skill 1: LASER BEAM
- Aims at the player for 3 seconds, the aim speed decays within those 3 seconds. You stay still for 2 seconds and adjust yourself to dodge the laser beam.
- The aiming speed of the beam is extremely deadly at long range, so maintain at least a 200 pixel long distance away from Nodoka, 200 pixels is the whole screen.

Skill 2: Touhou Time - 1st Version
- A bunch of orbs but there are intersecting sections

Skill 2: Touhou Time - 2nd Version
- An enhanced version when Nodoka is below 40% health, all the orbs will now rotate circularly.

Skill 3: Blue Orb Attack - 1st Version
- Nodoka will fire blue orbs towards the player.

Skill 3: Blue Orb Attack - 2nd Version
- When Nodoka is at 40% health, the blue orbs multiply in number

Other stats:
- Nodoka has very high health
- Immune to "stop", "freeze", and all status effects except burning.

Conclusion:
- She's motherfucking broken, but beatable.
- You can go max weapon limit, and only use your base weapon with a tank type character like Mel or Sora.

Time Mode observation:
- Activating Chicken Feather by intentionally dying does not count to the total elimination score of enemies, so Feather is essentially useless unless you just want nuke EXP but even that it is not worth it.
- Halu is removed entirely here
- The best stamp is the Solo Stamp since it maximizes base weapon damage.
- Shop upgrades are not reflected in Time Mode, it is standardized, the same goes for the skills, even if you have reached Gachikoi with the character it will not reflect as such and simply give you the 3 base skills.

I find getting dragonfire just for Nodoka is usually a good idea. Bonebros can work on higher haste characters.
Broken Dreams is excellent too. It can’t slow her down but those droplets hurt a bunch and she’ll eat a bunch of them when she is flying around and you are dodging. It also helps enormously on the pre-nodoka parts.

Fubuki jousting farms her + the entire map pretty trivially, I'm pretty sure her dodge counterattack has no/very low cooldown so you can just wiggle back and forth on top of her and every other boss during the bullet hell attacks and do a bazillion damage with passive + her special move

Portal seems borderline worthless as an escape, especially in high difficulty/Halu maps. Best I can see is using it to escape or avoid bullet hell mechanic traps if you're lucky with the placement, but she already has a one-hit dodge so you can just run through the enemy walls anyways.
I think portal does seem to relocate the garlic to your side when you take it? So it might be useful if the dumb thing gets lost somewhere in large maps like the field

alright, I think IRyS might be the first character busted enough when it's actually crossing into anti-fun
the best way to play it is incredibly straightforward and boring (solo weapon, stamp) and just grinding up your entire upgrade tree + shitload of G-Ranks in like 5-10 sessions of endless, depending on how stubborn you are

There were a few moments in a Hard 2 run with her just now where I was able to use it to get out because I could tell I was getting pushed into one of the cubicles or other stage dead ends, but there were just as many moments where the two ends were right next to each other in a shit position.
Feels like she just needs buffs/tweaks in general. If she had enough offensive power (range on main weapon, damage on the portal/garlic AoE, lower cooldown on the kick) to keep the portal area clear, then she could reliably get to them and use them - I assume the game plan was for her to hide in the garlic until there was too much pressure, then portal away, but the garlic AoE caves within minutes on harder Halu stages and the portal isn't even there half the time.
Alternately if she had more functional defensive mechanisms (some invuln after her dodge, maybe taking the portal consumes it + refreshes her correction brat passive) she can risk diving into a horde to take a portal, or risk taking a portal blind.

The issues isn't even getting to them or using them, it's that the gameplay fundamentally keeps you locked in one area because enemies come from all sides, so the portals will be within spitting distance 90% of the time. At that point, why even bother having them.

The difference is that you don't have to play it, it just increases the damage if you do. A better example is Fauna's old saplings that you had to run around everywhere to pick up because they aren't affected by pick up radius. People hated it because it was tedious, and often dangerous, so they changed it so saplings come to you automatically.

Mel has something like that with her Mel Mel Cooking. You get a short 5 second buff for eating, and throw out a bunch of cooking all at once every 15 seconds of up to 5 food. You can manuever yourself to always have the buff by eating 1 of the food every 5 seconds and then leave 2 to distract enemies, or grab them for more life-drain attacks.

Yes, but again, you don't have to use it. Mel Mel cooking distracts and damages enemies with 0 interaction from the player, choosing to eat it is entirely optional. If the plates did nothing on their own, and players where forced to go around and collect them because they were the only thing that activated her juice skill, or some buff specific to the skill, there would be far more complaining about it.

I haven't tried doggo in a while, but how viable is def stacking for Endless now if you go all in? Assuming multiplicative defense:
>15% shop def
>60% passive
>~20% x3: dakimakura, boobplate, pay2win

There is a difference between one that is optional and one that is forced. Fauna can ignore her savings, they come to her automatically. Mel can ignore her cooking, as it isn't the only way to trigger acerola juice. Korone's yubis are so passive you don't even have to pay attention to them. But forcing a player to use a wonky mechanic as the only way to get a buff is tedious and unfun, and is why many of them received changes in the past.

Fine, here is my running thoughts so far. Note these are specifically for solo-weapon runs
>Bad tier
Ayame - her kit is very un-synergistic, and her weapon scales poorly. Spirit Orbs from awakened weapon appear unaffected by stamps
>Ok Tier
Azki - Haste and Dodge are good if you have Daki, but taking a hit and losing stacks can be killer. Weapon is fast and Encore slaps, but Split Notes from awakened weapon appear unaffected by stamps
Suisei - Strong main weapon with 3x crits, but it's slow even with haste stacked, and procing Stellar Stellar and Block Master on some bosses (especially Nodoka) falls off hard, tanking her damage.
Ame - Strong damage but narrow trajectory demands Usaken stamp to clear waves, or a ton of kiting. Enemy projectiles also still fire during her ult
Aki - Lack of defense outside her ult makes the 16+ minutes hectic, and Aik's laser is incredibly narrow, making it very rng if it gets a good angle on packs or not. Can nuke Nodoka though
>Good Tier
Roboco - Lightning ring makes the early game easy, and strong scaling into late game. No defense outside of Battery stuns, so some kiting required
Mio - Tarot cards benefit from stamps, and a defensive kit makes her quite hardy. Need to play around her ult but otherwise clears fine
Fubuki - Speed makes for easy kiting, and playing around Friendzone/Ult makes decent clears.
Shion - Decent AoE damage from skills, and stamps can turn her basic attack into a potent shotgun. Easy to clear waves and bosses, just be careful about being overwhelmed
Sana - Damage and knockback make her fairly AFK, but if anything gets through planets, repositioning can be troublesome due to pack density
>Great Tier
Sora - Tons of healing, powerful basic attack, and ult makes bosses cake
Kiara - Powerful basic that can multi-proc stamps, good defensive tools, and free revives if needed
Fauna - Homing leaves shred enemies, Tree root keeps powerful enemies away, and you only need to move to dodge the occasional projectile
Korone - Powerful defense and offense lets her juggernaut through enemy waves, and even face tank bosses
>Overpowered Tier
Mumei
IRys

Shion is busted in one-weapon runs anon. Shiraken stamp gives her up to 10 projectiles per attack, Usaken stamp means the explosion can proc for every bolt on every hit. She's just a mini flechette launcher that shreds anything that stands in front of her. Only downside is it can only target about half the screen so you have to be careful about enemies on the other half.
>>43011509
This is pretty much spot on. Her skills are great but the don't benefit from stamps/enchantments/anvil upgrades, so they get less useful as you get to high levels. And her weapon is good, but fairly slow, so while she isn't super difficult, it isn't a cakewalk either.

Not him, and I don't disagree about her weapon damage, but if you're valuing defense for Korone (or lack thereof as you note for Aki) it's pretty difficult to consider her busted.
When I was solo weapon running stage 2 hard with her myself I had a couple runs fail ~10 min because she basically has no options on the table if you get RNG screwed and the core damage/AoE stamps don't drop. Feels like it'd make sense to have her around Ame/Aki, or move up Korone's fellow gamers who can survive well stampless and facetank stuff as well.

Personally I'd also move Mumei down at this point for the same "lack of defense outside ult" weakness dragging down some other girls, but that's just because I value being able to reliably get out of bad situations over her "not having to aim" gimmick.

I'd argue the issue is less that it's forced/wonky so much that it's just zero payoff worth the effort. Having to space enemies into an invisible donut around Aqua (between her social anxiety visible ring the pickup range) is also a huge 24/7 consideration, but no one seems to be complaining about it because she gets some of if not the highest damage in the game for doing it.
Shion staying in the garlic circle, and potentially having to look for her teleporter circle every x seconds, is pretty low effort in comparison, it's just that staying in the garlic gets her surrounded and taking the portal gets her to facetank some random enemy. If the garlic meter gain was letting her shit out a Kusogakick every 10 seconds or something it'd feel a lot less bad. Hell, it probably wouldn't even be broken, since it seems like she stops shooting and goes at a DPS loss lategame during it.
>>43014732
"Just don't get hit for 5-10 secs at a time" should probably be the most ignorable mechanic in the game seeing how that's most characters try to play by default, you could definitely just go around using her mechanics purely defensively if you were lazy

Limiter is one of those things that on paper sounds dumb but in practice ends up very helpful. Theres a lot of field on most levels and exp often gets left and fordces you to have manuver around to get it which means things that die at the end of the screen leave more stuff for you to have to chase down. When you do hard levels you often cant get around every crowd that forms as you try and stay alive and Limiter lets you grab straight out of the pile

It's certainly tougher than previous ones. The early portion can be the hardest part if you aren't a self contained chuuba like Mumei because you gotta get your build online quickly with the weapons you wanna collab, healing and other things.

Huh, went and tried myself a couple times with a G.21 Mumei + maxed store buffs rushing nothing but Awakened Feathers + Halu5 then offensive items I saw (and avoiding the stamp), but by ~3 minutes on stage 2 hard she's already at the "time to start running/kiting for your life because basic enemies are getting too close" point. Do you hold off on Halu or only start off bringing it up to Lv 1~3 in your runs?
The feathers are strong for sure, but it definitely doesn't seem to be "so strong she can turret/stand her ground without the stamp" levels of not needing to consider defense to me.

The biggest issue I have with the portals is how short the timer is before a new one gets thrown out. Makes it impossible to plan out using it for escapes and I usually end up teleporting just because I wanted to stand still for a moment. The teleporting just needs to go and it should be changed to something like firing your own shots into a portal to make a different attack come out the other end or something.

Credit Card + Blacksmith's Gear is going to be overkill on a solo weapon run, you don't need that many anvils.

Collar pretty much negates a lot of the drawbacks. I don't know if it'll get nerfed next round or it's balanced by the fact that it occupies an item slot and doesn't do anything else besides negating drawbacks when fully leveled. I imagine if they want to keep the same end bonus while reducing its effectiveness, they might move it up to level five and reduce drawbacks by 20% instead of 33%.

Does 10k damage in one attack mean to one target and not counting AoE?

It has the unwritten drawback of needing to appear early to be effective. Assembling a line up of items with steep drawbacks before you have Collar is a pretty big risk and there's not much overlap between a Collar line up and a regular line up so if the Collar shows up toward the middle of the game you will have probably removed some of the things you'd want to use it with. I've played with it once and it was pretty good, but I got a super item which kind of wasted some of the Collar's value.

Did a second attempt and surprisingly... Switching out asacoco and shackles for mask and idol costume saved me only four seconds. The rest of the run though went by way smoother with more access to special though. Solo stamp came in after the 10min mark and both mid-bosses were already defeated by that point. Haste stamp came at the very end with the staff wave. Last stamp was bomb stamp which actually came first around the 7-8 min mark.
Paying closer attention, AT field gives you stupid levels of survivability as long as you aren't terrible at weaving between waves when it's on cd.
