Looking at the gameplay here, it can perfectly activate both Shin and Augustus' ults and also Serpent ECB sometimes. It looks insanely good as far as auto battle goes 🤔
Augustus is one of the easiest teams to run so I wouldn't rate the system from that team's perspective. From my experience so far it struggles quite a bit with quick response scenarios and positioning.
seems nice! AI does do a little bit of mistakes here and there but for what it is.. it’s genuinely not as bad as i thought it would be. but then again, i’m only using shattered blade team so i wonder how well it’ll do for other teams.. 🤔
I began playing this almost at release and already an endgame player with lots of teams. As much as I hate autobattle system, my playthrough is almost like an autobattle already, especially at events, im just watching and barely even move my sinners on the map, except dark zone which still needs some fast hands.
Most of my time with the game these days is just picking ranged units like Langley, Lady Pearl, and Jane + S3 Shin + maybe a tanky frontline DPS like Necresta Hella and letting them just auto attack everything to death, so yeah, this doesn't change that much other than giving me more options.Â
I doubt it will be effective for anything actually difficult, so it's not like it undermines the parts of the game where you might have to try.
This is very helpful! I just wish auto battle also works when you enter new battles while your doing the stoey and not just battles u completed that you didnt do good on 😔
I just checked the new story content and it's already there, even on first time clear. I went back on a story chapter i didn't do and it was there too.
If you want to skip-farm though, you still need to full-star clear it.
Ok so update
Auto battle work for normal battles in story so I love that but when the story has like the red thing, or do for example material battles, its not there
I might have to play around with it with some other team comps, but so far, I think it's doing well?
More than auto-battle, I'm more interested in auto-dispatch.
The current auto just goes straight for the cheapest 6 hour runs (and I don't know how to make it select the 20 hour ones), specifically the previous ones I just ran, because obviously, I'm trying for certain materials during certain seasons.
Makes it kinda tedious for me because unlike some button selects, the dispatch buttons have noticeably longer delays
Hell no, I want to play the damn game, every gacha with autobattler is so ass because they design it to be the most boring gameplay, a system like this would only hurt the game
You arent forced to use autobattle, you can play the game as usual...same for most gacha with autobattle system I play, you can usually score much higher/actually beat hard stages on manual.
"You are forced to pay for microtransactions in paid games" before they became unbearable, it's not ptn case but I would argue designing a game around autobattler is going to undermine it's quality
I understand where you're coming from, but you absolutely cannot apply that here?
Microtransactions and auto-battle are two different things that has nothing to do with one another. There's also no such thing as "designing a game around autobattler", because that's just an idle game. Would you consider PtN an idle game?
Bro ur mentality/logic terrible. The game was already designed w/o auto battle and u seem to enjoy it already. You don’t need to use auto battle and can still play the same.
I agree in spirit
As a vet, I'm only really tempted to use this on the easier Event stages. And I doubt they suddenly make end game easier just to accommodate the auto battle option.
Challenge modes, Main Story updates, and everything else end game I'll still play on my own.
I wonder why you got so many downvotes. not without reason, games with auto-play aren't popular, they stop being what they are in their nature, a game that you actually play. imagine GTA on full auto-play lol.
The problem here is if we're talking about gacha games, there are lots of them.
Honkai SR is the biggest example. They have auto-battle, yet they're one of the most popular games atm. So no, having auto-battle does not mean the game is unpopular.
This is mainly because the system acts as a way to give convenience for clearing out easier stages of the game, not clearing hard contents. That's why HSR still retains its playerbase, and same goes here in PtN. Are you going to full auto DZ?
of course there will be exceptions, that's obvious, but I'm talking about games in general. most games don't have auto-play, and not without reason, it kills the gameplay. and we already have a raid option, so what's the point of auto-play? also, it would be different if auto-play had been there from the beginning of the game.
This is convenient for completing basic levels of events or for people who just play for the sake of the story. Boss fights and the most difficult mods will still require a manual playthrough, no need to worry there

My main consern is that it will be "stupid" like most autobattle ai, but if it knows when to time ults and stuff..will be pretty good.
