Please never stop doing Operator Hindsight. The depth of explanation you offer is genuinely irreplaceable and we all really appreciate it, thank you Dragon!

Really appreciate that you put so much effort into these videos. Your knowledge is a Ray of light!

youre honestly a superhero for having this video out literally on character release. hope you're taking care of yourself, eat plenty of food and drink plenty of water! ray seems really neat - on a less optimization focused point, she's the first 6 star cautus operator AND the first 6 star rim billiton operator (if you don't count schwarz), so those niches both got a significant powerup with this patch. looking forward to trying her out, tysm for the video!!

Thanks for the vid - being relatively close to Typhon and Wis'Adel is rough for Ray, but there's no denying how fun her kit is

29 minutes? I'm ready. Easily the best arknights videos on YT!

I think a way to accumulate ammo to reduce the issues with ammo depletetion would be to use operators that can sleep enemies (i.e Kafka), as this will give both Coldshot and Ray time to reload while the enemies are slept as they cannot be targeted by them, a pity that most bosses are immune to sleep, but I guess this could be use for tanky elite enemies.

I hadn't thought about how complimentary the sleep mechanic is to Hunters for their ammo. Great suggestions. But you are right, you would normally use Ray to destroy bosses, and they are typically immune to sleep. Oh well, still a great idea to counter their main weakness which is a horde of enemies.

One of the most valuable English Arknights channels right now.

Incredibly informative as always. The fact you also include information from CN's playtime with the operator in addition to a full breakdown is absolutely invaluable.

You and Frostbyte are carrying the Arknights Operator Guides! With Kyostinv and Eckogen carrying the Arknights Strategy Guides. The Big 4!

She’s lots of fun and I like the new “pull priority” analysis you’re doing. It’s much more helpful for newer players than the old way it was done. Appreciate the work you put into these.

we freaking love you dragongjy

Got Ray and Horn around 50. Im happy. Gl for those who are pulling Also thank you for the videoo

I'm glad the module wound up like it did, because I wanted to like S2 but it kind of is a trap - and it seems like it really improves it

Just got home, thank you for the video 😊

Thanks for putting so much effort into these operator hindsights. I really appreciate the depth and detail of these guides, and you make them quite entertaining as well. Hopefully you get some time to rest before the next hindsight.

I really like the change in format for the end of the video. It felt highly reductive just ranking Operators by pull priority, and I think it's something players should decide for themselves using the available information you provided. Good luck to everyone pulling for Ray!

Production value and script are, as always, top notch 👍

I think its a good idea to take out the pull chart thing, saw it get copy pasted to reddit every single time out of context because all people think is "tierlist go brr." I think keeping it simple and within the context of the unit's release (both now and how they look in the future) without directly implying power comparisons via numbers on a graph is a great call. Cheers for the video as always mate!

Thank you for this super detailed guide! I’ve been going back and forth on whether not to pull for her. Her play style is really unique, but I’ve already built Ceobe and I’d rather save my pulls for Shu. I did one ten pull, but she didn’t come home so it wasn’t meant to be ;-; Operator Hindsight is a really amazing series and always informs my pulls, so thank you!

Thank you so much for your wonderful guides, I learn so much about the characters thanks to your in-depth explanations and tips. I'm so looking forward to playing Ray, massive cutie with lots of damage!

THE GOAT!

Thank you ! Always the best insight videos

The ease-of-usage was not something I even considered before, so thanks for bringing that up. Looking at her kit again, yea, it is quite micro-intensive to get the most out of it unlike Typhon. Now I know, a bit at least, what to say when ppl are asking in the server's help channel about pulling her.

Nice timing!

Thanks for the vid! Amazing as always! Good luck on your pull lads!

I was considering getting Ray because of S2 potentials.. but yeah, negative-cycle, as expected from ammo-feature.. thanks for the info (add:holy.. that S3 range.. omg)

This is probably your best video yet. Really fantastic job breaking down a nuanced kit. And that part about frame data was lovely.

This video is amazing, which at this point is to be expected. I always feel like I get exactly what I want to know about an operator from your videos, so thank you so very much for everything you do!

great video I absolutely adore watching you while eating :D

Thank you a lot. I love these operator analyses.

goated asf thanks fam

There's one thing that prevent us from pulling Ray: Walter. In other words, she was born at the wrong time, wrong moment. The ranks gamepress concluded, on both degen n ray s3, after 6 month of analysis, are revealed to be: *S3M3 S++ for all 3 major type of content* For the former, we're not surprised - is a thing, will explain later. But for the latter, she has highest dmg per ammo, and meant to mow down tough elites and chain their legs, as long as no trash mobs waste her ammo

It's cool that he adds this detail even tho it will be useful to very few people and these people will either know it from somewhere else or put it in a frame counter themselves. It gives more depth and it's a part of increasing the average player's skill level, by increasing the interest of potentially more casual players to higher end content, which may not have been likely to take note of such details. It's always a positive in my eyes. 👍

I love her so much, it's so much fun stacking range manipulation with s3 plus coconut doggy to basically shoot around corners... and the big dmg numbers! lovely.

The pull analysis section is very helpful compared to the previous format. It provides much insight for both early and veteran players!

God i love this guy

I have so much respect for these videos. They are the absolute gold standard of analysis and are extremely well designed and scripted.

still the best AK info source on yt your quality and consistency is outstanding

Thank you for these videos, they're really helpful

I'm gonna called it. Lappland Alter archetype will be the same as Ray, Hunter. Zarro will be the equivalent of sandbeast for Lappland

21:20 wtf, I swear man, everytime I watch ur video I alway came out knowing some new obscure trick that I couldn't even imagine off

5:56 I for some reason imagined a scene in an overly dramatic anime of Ray timing the activation of her ability at just the right time to get the one extra ammo

After watch this deep analize clip ,how dare me not sub this ch.

I told myself to stop rolling after the first 6 star, and about my 40th set I got jessica alter and Ray in the same 10 pull. So I'll build her for being so nice.

thx for the video

Dont pull Ray, I lost the first stage of her event because I was too distracted admiring everything about her:)

I got ray in a random single pull...i love her now. She the reason i beaten so many levels.

Love the new segment of "pull analysis", much more usefull for people who does not care about "meta pulls"

She is a total package. If you are not lucky with W² then she is THE best option.

she is unique enough to me and also, Kurisu

Next banner is Shu right? Damn i need to consider my pull i really want Ray

Thanks for battling the EN schedule! T_T

i cant hear you over the sound of Ray shooting. jk thanks for the analysis as always. ill finish it after i enjoy quality time with my rayray

9:25 Ah, so that's why in GT-S-1 if she's deployed facing left, she's unable to push the enemies coming from the right behind her into the holes, I've been wondering about that.

For S2 sandbeast might as well be unlimited duration...

Thanks for the reviews! In short, skip because she's not wisadel

she is as beautiful as her theme song

Hehe, sitting there with my Ray in 30 pulls and keeping future funds while many people skip

thank you sensei!

Respect for 29 minutes our bro is cooking😎

So while watching the video, I pulled and built Ray to e2 LVL 70. I see cute bunny I pull cute bunny

As far as scheduling goes, the only reason as to why they moved Reed rerun is probably to put it in between Shu and Ela banner and avoid back to back limited. But, whoever came up with this idea is an idiot. It's just messed up schedule and Reed being in that position doesn't make it better for anyone really.

PUSH FUCKING REDUCES FORCE WHEN DOING RADIAL WHAT

fast skill cycle and brute force high def enemies with big damage kind of reminds me of Fartooth. too bad Fart suffers too many restrictions to be viable in almost everywhere.

I'm watching this because I got Ray on my 2nd single pull when I was only pulling for Warmy

I'll give her a chance to spook me off-banner. If she does, I'll build her, if not and i need her - I'm positive plenty of people will have her available for borrowing, CC has a medal for borrowing operators for a reason. I want ling, ela and obviously Lelouche Wi Adel. Im gonna be sooooo broke 😅😶‍🌫️

Wish you could have gone more in depth with how to use her S2 correctly, otherwise great video!

Dragon is 7 star.

My brain is so confused with her. On one hand: OMG bunny Kurisu from Steinsgate On the other hand my brains like: "Upcoming characters are Shu, Ela and other R6 characters and Wisadel and Logos" u really wanna use you non existent pulls for Bunny Kurisu?

Im gonna build ray because i heard she is good in the upcoming cc#2

我打算去哈工大留学, wish me luck xD

Ray's S3 dps is so insanely busted, with or without sandbeast it still does really well. IMO Ray is extremely easy to use and very braindead, since her highest ceiling is purely optional due to her insane performance no matter what. The sandbeast can make her hit really weird spots easily, which just adds to her insanity. Not to mention permabind is great.

At the defense level that Ray can’t deal with I have a silly dog ready to take over
