She's ranked in power higher than her worlds origin and finality and those are of the twelve sentinel swords (parallels to the honkai divine keys)

[runic ether]

?

welt doesnt has his core anymore

the hsr universe doesnt has

any honkai

actually

and welt himself has said that aeons are a tier above the honkai cores

acheron by lore is our most powerful character maybe the only other ones to compare would be diamond (we havent met him yet) and herta (we havent met her actual body yet)

welt is just chill rn

hes running out of his full power and is severely weakened rn

but we can guess that emanators are about as strong or stronger than the 12 herrscher cores

since aeons are tiers above them

[long tree]

Here's void archive telling welt directly that while it will disintegrate in time, his core remains

[runic ether]

yes and this takes place a long time before hsr

[glossy latch]

Im pretty sure Welt has his core

[runic ether]

his core is all but practically gone by now

[glossy latch]

Its how hes creating the black hole

[long tree]

I don't think we have any evidence he's lost it, and the fact he can still use the divine key means the permissions granted to him by the core are still there

It's most likely hanging on by a thread but still there

[runic ether]

These days, Welt rarely fights, and it remains unknown whether or not he retains the strength from his heyday. Gravity manipulation has remained his usual combat means, ever since his cane was transformed from the Star of Eden.

He suppresses his enemies with gravity, even creating a kind of mini-black hole — what he considered his everyday powers are met with amazement by the youngsters on the Express.

from his character story part

3

yeah he may still have his core but it is very much weakened

[long tree]

Ye that's what I mean though

I dont know enough about honkai lore to know how the cores work, I'm picking things up by just stumbling on threads

So I said welt with core is probably very cracked, but without it working it's easy for Acheron to win

Like not even a slight difficulty

[runic ether]

not quite

even with the core

[long tree]

Oh wow is Acheron that cracked

[runic ether]

welt is below herta and acheron and diamond

[glossy latch]

Im not convinced personally

Herrschers are below Aeons

[runic ether]

the aeons as said by welt himself are far above the honkai herrschers

[glossy latch]

But above Emanators Im pretty sure

[runic ether]

i think the scale of emanators is higher than herrschers

[long tree]

Iirc welts core is also the weakest, hes just smart enough to make up the difference

[runic ether]

Different Aeons have different attitudes towards their Emanators, so the degree of the power they share also varies. Some Aeons regard Emanators as an extension of themselves, and as such, generously open their Path to the Emanators completely. There are also Aeons who have no intention of creating Emanators and have no interest in worldly squabbles. Other Aeons just do as they please. It is said that Aha the Elation will randomly give mortals the power of their Path, and toy with humans according to their mood.

this is the difficult part to powerscaling

acheron is a self-annihilator so we dont know how much power she draws from ix

but given what we have seen of her pre-emanator she was already quite powerful

and then what we see of her as an emanator she is definitely very strong

we dont know diamond

and herta by herself

is super powerful

so we know at least nous gives a ton of power to their emanators

we can assume that ix gives a ton of power bc ix doesnt care

and the preservation clearly gives some big shot powers to diamond and taravan

enough for the ipc to be able to bully some other factions by the threat that they have 2 emanators

[long tree]

Just a casual second vampy

[old galleon]

today's freebies gave me nothing

also it's the first time i've gotten only 10 rolls on idealist in a long while

[old galleon]

vampy is core

[summer hornet]

I’m stuck in a Tiamat raid that somehow didn’t die and no one else is showing up to help

[old galleon]

did you call backup?

[long tree]

Isvampycore.com

[summer hornet]

Yyyyep

[old galleon]

aight it's not showing on my shit so can you post the code for it?

can't guarantee i'll kill it but i can chunk it down a bit

[summer hornet]

69C49775

Should be it

[old galleon]

there ya go

[summer hornet]

Thanks a million Argor

[old galleon]

didn't expect it to only have 7%

[summer hornet]

People kept coming in and chipping away and then leaving lmao

[old galleon]

usually i do enough to guarantee or close to guarantee blue chest

which is around 1.2-1.3m honors

[summer hornet]

Well, a copy of the new Aura bow (my first weapon drop) is pretty good consolation for that effort at least

[long tree]

I would've helped but err rank gated

[summer hornet]

What setup are you using btw?

[old galleon]

me, you mean?

[summer hornet]

No worries!

And yeah, you Argor

What’s your current blue chest fire (aka wind advantage) team?

[old galleon]

https://i.imgur.com/S4TBxot.png
https://i.imgur.com/oUjZK65.png

bubsxshiva (4* ideally)

alternatively, can run apsaras mc

[summer hornet]

Oh right you’ve got yours uncapped, don’t you

[old galleon]

my opus is, yeah

used the stuff from last year's anni

[summer hornet]

Oh I meant your summon

[old galleon]

oh yeah, bubs is uncapped

https://i.imgur.com/mQvCiZF.png

turn 1 call bubs and use shiva as well, immediately before percy 3

turn 2 if needed, call the sun and auto

https://i.imgur.com/PQG4MP6.png

as i said, apsaras also works

can run this, you call bubs immediately, mc splitting spirit, yuel 1, michael 2, shiva, percy 3, auto

this requires falsehood chain on your opus to set double strike on the rest of the team

[long tree]

Anyone know when the honkai maintenance goes live?

Also I keep forgetting Michael is a woman, very handsome

[old galleon]

michael is very handsome, yes

anyway if you care about doing stacks for conditional loot yourself, run md and don't use falsehood chain on your opus

if you just want fast blue chest, apsaras only needs a few buttons

[summer hornet]

I also don’t have Percy lol

But I can use Sun

[old galleon]

the way these raids are going, it's pretty reliable to use the rest of the players for green chest stacking

[old galleon]

sounds like something you'll want to remedy, hopefully with the premium rolls we'll be getting soon

[summer hornet]

I really hope so

Was literally 40 rolls away from sparking last gala

[dull bridge]

nooooo

imma be at chorus

when it srops

but i'll make sure to finish tb as soon as i get home

[old galleon]

so this was bugging me for a bit last night

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHNxH9zYDlo

couldn't put my finger on it but this sounded like something i'd heard elsewhere

parts of it are almost a dead ringer for andoain's theme if it were less electronic

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEflMmt3MzQ

like i'm not going totally insane right?

[old galleon]

homie hates aura so much, he gonna get a wake up call once he hits 200

[torn harbor]

The splash art isn't old files
It's new with the predownload

[glossy latch]

No I mean the ||Firefly|| art

[torn harbor]

Yes that's what I'm saying

The thing which was supposed to be old files was the kit
||But apparently that was also a misunderstanding too and it wasn't actually old files for the kit||

Though this splash art is completely new

[summer hornet]

Took me a bit but I can hear it

It’s most obvious in their intros, methinks

Tbh they’re probably both pulling from the same inspiration pool lol

[glossy latch]

@runic ether whats a good cr/cd ratio in genshin?

[runic ether]

1:2

specific numbers

the first u aim for is 60:120

[torn harbor]

Silly ovven
There is no ratio is genshin :p

[glossy latch]

I see

[runic ether]

70:140 is the "good" one

[glossy latch]

Ive got my Navia up to 55.5/141.2

[runic ether]

80:160 is the next step up and very doable

[glossy latch]

And 100:200 is basically wishful thinking?

[runic ether]

90:180 is decently built

and 100:200 is well built

100:200 is not wishful

[torn harbor]

Dr. Ratio is a hsr character :v

[runic ether]

its pretty much what u want to aim for usually

it doesnt has to be raw 100

ie

[glossy latch]

I did get the pun

[runic ether]

marechausse hunter

u can do 64:200

[glossy latch]

Yeah but Navia doesnt really have secondary sources of crit rate

[runic ether]

some characters like rosaria can give additional crit rate

same with xianyun

so xiao furina xianyun and c6 faruzan

xiao will overcap crit rate at anything above 90

[runic ether]

mhm

so for navia

the next step will be to get to 70 crit rate

putting u at 70:141 will be a dps increase

navia is an interesting case though since she frontloads her damage

crit rate is extremely valuable for her

[glossy latch]

70% crit rate is gonna be tough

[runic ether]

she wants to hit as close to or hit 100

[glossy latch]

Yeah

I just need to get the right pieces

[runic ether]

its not actually all that tough imo

the toughest part is getting from 80 to 90

over time and as u keep leveling artifacts u will collect crit rate subs

the hardest part will be the hump past 80 and then 90

[glossy latch]

I guess

[runic ether]

i personally have a ton of characters who on casual builds hit the 70 mark

its going farther that gets harder

also ending up with 5 star weapons will help in general

lost prayers and pjws from standard are great

and while they are very much not needed, they 100% do help in getting the insane ratios to have your character look great

like before i got staff of scarlet sands, my hu tao was still very impressive

[old galleon]

https://i.imgur.com/lzvjpHT.png

finally cleared out tales of arcarum shop

needed over 32k medals for it all since i had to catch up with past runs

[honest pawn]

got nothing else but dupes

[old galleon]

s tyra is pretty based

[dull bridge]

well

maint started

5 hours and acherons mine

[copper steppe]

how the fuck do i do in achilles cq

[dull bridge]

guys it’s so soon

i’ve decided to stay up to pull for her

[runic ether]

"but would you lose (the 50/50)?"
nah, i'd win

[glossy latch]

Do I roll another 20 to hope to get Gallagher ...

Err another 10

[runic ether]

i got 2 gallaghers on the way to her

now the moment of truth though

[glossy latch]

I have no pity anyway

[runic ether]

light cone

oh u should be good to roll for him

[glossy latch]

Fuck it, Sams like 2 patches away at least

[runic ether]

his e1 is his best before like

what

e6?

and theres a free gallagher on the way

so u just need the 1

[glossy latch]

Oh wait there is?

Got Gallagher

[dull bridge]

wait what

still 8 more minutes

[glossy latch]

Tbh a lucky Acheron pull wouldnt have been bad either

[dull bridge]

😭

[glossy latch]

I have 3 GNSW

[dull bridge]

how are you so fast

[glossy latch]

Which is fine

As her f2p option

I think

[runic ether]

servers been up for an hour now

[dull bridge]

SHAT

[runic ether]

yup

[dull bridge]

i’ve legit been waiting

the past 30 mins

on my couch

[glossy latch]

Also tbh

If I didnt have Kafka Id consider Acheron

Buuut I already have a lightning DPS 😔

[dull bridge]

@dull bridge WE FUCKING WIN THE 50/50

whoops

also this was 80 pulls exact

all this patch going into lc

pela e6 finally

gallagher e1 only

[glossy latch]

Also a reason Im not pulling

I have E6 Pela

I dont want Dan Heng

So 2/3 are a dud

Yeah ok Acherons LC is actually an insane DPS increase

[dull bridge]

yeah

[glossy latch]

Its 30%$ better than the best 4*

[runic ether]

yup lol

[dull bridge]

WAIT

lmao

i used the ascension pills

and just randomly got

this is nice

[runic ether]

she works with gnsw very well but

[dull bridge]

also got s5 gnsw

[runic ether]

her lc is such a massive increase

[dull bridge]

from ascension pills

but i'm pulling for lc

gnsw is just holding me over for now

[runic ether]

how did i fuck up the math pre-farming

im 14 shits off

[glossy latch]

Man I really kinda wanna get Boothill

[runic ether]

oh good

fucking

lord

acheron is so broken in sim universe

[glossy latch]

But I dont wanna risk Sam and he's not great for my account

She literally onsetaps all thr mooks and you get rewards

[runic ether]

yup

things are going so quick

its crazy

[glossy latch]

Better farm those technique point consumable

[runic ether]

also yeah boothill is looking to be quite good

and he looks visually cool

and u have ruan mei so u do have his best support

[glossy latch]

Oh wait no, I keep forgetting he actually applies Physical Weakness

[runic ether]

but

he is going to be 2nd half

which is super risky for sam

[glossy latch]

He's also a hunt unit

Which sucks LC wise

[runic ether]

ehh

u can always use herta shop

who else are u using that one?

[glossy latch]

That ones on Seele

[runic ether]

*on?

ah fair

[glossy latch]

Though Swordplay might be fine

[runic ether]

yeah that is a bit rough

[glossy latch]

He doesn't have as many dmg buffs built in?

[runic ether]

wait hows ur destruction light cone situation like?

[glossy latch]

Im just using 4* ones

[runic ether]

from what i see no his kit is more likely to be good on uhh

[glossy latch]

Sam might get Aeon

[runic ether]

or specifically

with ruan mei

[dull bridge]

i just didn’t pre farm

[glossy latch]

Yeah, so Swordplay might work

[dull bridge]

also

anyone doing tb quest rn

[glossy latch]

But being close to Sam is rough

[glossy latch]

I might have to skip him 😔

[runic ether]

yeah

if boothill was 1st half

maybe

[dull bridge]

I AM ACRUALLY LAUGHING SO MUCH

his thing

[runic ether]

wanna spoiler story quest things?

[dull bridge]

sorry

is acheron have a parallel in hi3?

[glossy latch]

Raiden Mei

[dull bridge]

does raider mei know welt?

like well

[glossy latch]

Yes

[dull bridge]

just curious us

ok

thanks

[runic ether]

this team actually feels insane

[runic ether]

yeah damn i think if u play ratio at all

u need aventurine

his personal damage on this build is clearly not built perfect but its still really damn good

though it makes sense

they gave him dps scaling but as a preservation character

also

2.1 story

||interesting that he cant see any of the origami birds||

its time

https://tenor.com/view/tf2-soldi-smirk-grin-gif-14632572

[dull bridge]

HOLY SJIT i got so rolled wtf

double support

[runic ether]

2.1 story out of context

[glossy latch]

How does Aventurine help Ratio?

[runic ether]

follow ups

his ult also has a debuff

and trends of the universal market is a preservation lc with debuffs

that isnt unique to aventurine

but it does give him 2 debuffs he can apply

[versed pawn]

probably build gallahger for acheron

[versed pawn]

kinda confused now

so i get another 18% when attacking debuffed enemies

[versed pawn]

1 did oneshot aventurine in both phases

[runic ether]

hsr 2.1 story minor spoiler ||isnt this a fate reference?||

[old galleon]

definitely a reference to unlimited blade works, yes

I am the bone of my sword
Steel is my body and fire is my blood
I have created over a thousand blades
Unknown to Death,
Nor known to Life.
Have withstood pain to create many weapons
But yet, those hands will never hold anything
So as I pray, Unlimited Blade Works.

[runic ether]

finished

holy shit

this story cooks

[versed pawn]

Ye

building gallahger i guess

[runic ether]

i just didnt expect to like aventurine and gallagher as much as i did

[old galleon]

dantes simps gonna be rejoicing whenever they wake up

[summer hornet]

Lmao yeah they did good by him

Always nice when the dot stacks are 3-turn and not 3-hit

Lost 50/50 at 40 pity, got her at 20

[summer hornet]

🎉

[versed pawn]

did build him he e6

[slow raft]

Ritsuka fujimaru

[copper steppe]

holy crap dantes 2.0 goes hard

insane kit

[summer hornet]

This HSR update is so much fun

Taking a break during the ||Aventurine and Dr. Ratio segment; I'm DEFINITELY rolling for Aventurine later this patch. Aventurine/SW/Ratio/Topaz is just magical||

||plus all the little teasings with Acheron and Sam up to this point. They're baiting us with how much we want the answers (and the references) lol||

[torn harbor]

The followup master plan is aventurine/Robin/E1S1 topaz/ratio

Hopefully we eventually get a f2p hunt LC that makes a debuff so that S1 topaz isn't needed for the full 3 from topaz

[summer hornet]

You mean the full 3 for Ratio?

[long tree]

Damn that new simulated universe boss got hands

[summer hornet]

Who is it?

Put it in spoilers if need be

[long tree]

||something unto death||

[torn harbor]

Yes

[summer hornet]

...oh I'm gonna look forward to that

[torn harbor]

Topaz does 3 debuffs with e1s1

[versed pawn]

[torn harbor]

So that ratio can have guaranteed fua

[versed pawn]

i did one shot both new boss phases before any mechanic could happen

i will find out in MoC later i guess

[torn harbor]

Aventurine does 1 at e0s0 but also has a f2p cone which gives a second one (trend of the universal market)

[summer hornet]

That's why I was using Silver Wolf, tbf

But yeah, probably not as nice as just having extra buffs from Robin huh

[torn harbor]

If you can get e1s1 topaz 100%
Probably still so even without but I can't say for certain there

[slow raft]

alright, now we are cooking with heat

[summer hornet]

Okay I read Robin's kit

I fully understand the vision

[long tree]

How good is Kafka's LC on acheron

[honest pawn]

YOOO

[long tree]

Okay the new honkai story quest has a translation issue in it that is important

MASSIVE SPOILERS FOR THE CURRENT HONKAI QUEST ||when Sunday is confronting Gallagher, he is supposed to say "isn't that right, enigmatas follower?" But just says "isn't that right?"||

Also of note there was a mistranslation for one of sparkles dialogue in the 2.0 story for penacony SPOILERS FOR THE 2.0 PENACONY STORY ||Sparkle incorrectly says something akin to "you might as well make friends with a rock." to adventurine. Instead of the word "rock", she's supposed to say "mute"||

[runic ether]

||yeah this was a big thing to miss since it tags gallagher to mythos which is pretty big||

[runic ether]

hell yea ppl are coming around on him

also

2.1 spoilers ||his boss theme fucks||

[dull bridge]

i can’t win :(

[runic ether]

thats skill issue

||are u not running acheron into him?||

[dull bridge]

||i am but i get stuck when he makes my fucking support roll the dice thing and they don't ever do well||

[runic ether]

||thats never bad tho whats ur sustain like?||

[dull bridge]

||im running lynx welt pela acheron||

i also didn't rly prefarm acheron

so she's kinda bad

[runic ether]

||there shouldnt be a struggle unless ur lynx is really bad||

[dull bridge]

but imma@try again rn

[runic ether]

keep farming

[dull bridge]

cause i levels all relics did a bit of farming

no can do used al fuel and trailblazer power

[versed pawn]

Gallagher heals actually not too bad

[runic ether]

my acheron aint great rn either. i dont have her lc yet or a good takama set

[dull bridge]

i am just using sw lc rn

[runic ether]

shes at a measly 58/156

[dull bridge]

mine at 55 / 143 rn

[runic ether]

and she still does over 450k ults

[versed pawn]

i hit 98/375 with sparkle

[dull bridge]

[versed pawn]

but 84/240 without her but i have e2

[runic ether]

u have her lc right?

e2s1?

[versed pawn]

ye

[runic ether]

mhmhm thats a good ratio

im not going e2

i think i will get aventurine this time around

[versed pawn]

and additional 4% from the set bonus and 10 from sparkle

currently on salsotto tho

[runic ether]

at most i get her s1

[dull bridge]

my acheron only hit for 80k... i think something's wrong

hmmm

[versed pawn]

gonna take a while to get the new one

on that new dino dude

[runic ether]

huohuo

vro...

[versed pawn]

switched to gallahger now

[runic ether]

my man

[versed pawn]

he okay could be faster

[runic ether]

gallagher is so good for acheron but aventurine with trends will clear

[runic ether]

keel?

[versed pawn]

ye

[runic ether]

if so u can trade like 26 ef res for more speed if possible

[versed pawn]

man has additional 50 effres for no reason

my high speed gear is on supports

anyway if id like himto have a turn before acheron on the first rotation i would need him to be either faster than sparkle

or give him vonwaq

[runic ether]

hmm

not worth vonq idt

keel is just so solid

are u using him on the healer set for an sp?

i feel thatd be overkill

[versed pawn]

no 2 piece speed and 2 break

[dull bridge]

yeha

im just getting rolled

i'll just farm more

[long tree]

Hey misty do you know how good Kafka LC is on Acheron?

How long is the story BTW?

[versed pawn]

[glossy latch]

How many hours roughly?

[runic ether]

this was with acheron killing a ton of common mobs

[glossy latch]

Gotcha

[dull bridge]

i was speedy though

[long tree]

It’s very wordy but it’s good so I didn’t mind

I'm not doing it until I get back from Italy

[glossy latch]

[long tree]

I've been using Acheron in simulated universe

She's him

She's himmie the hedgehog

Fellas I'm saying this in case I forget when it happens, but good luck on your gala roulette, may a shower of Percival's and Michael's be upon ye

[old galleon]

that would be bad for me since i have all the copies of both of their weapons that i'll ever need

instead i hope i'll get spooked by poseidon or sandy or something

[long tree]

Then I wish that upon ye

[old galleon]

poseidon in particular has dodged me for years lol

[slow raft]

Hard carried by the goat, i fear

[old galleon]

ah yes, the slayer of european swallows and the savior of france

also one of best girls

cultured team comp

[slow raft]

Koyan was also here, but she died along the way

[copper steppe]

finally done with sheba’s cq

fuck that was long

[slow raft]

Speaking of kama tho, it turns out that an avenger is a way better choice of looper than a saber for a quest with 2 archers and a ruler

[copper steppe]

melt is saving me in all these quests

[slow raft]

Gotta bust out the unreturning formation atleast once yknow

[long tree]

I wonder if star rail is going to show Acheron meeting another Kiana/Kevin

[slow raft]

Did the exact same mistake but this time i tried doing a fight with two knight class servant by bringing an alter ego

In my defense, extra class advantages are weird

[summer hornet]

This is what 80 draws on a non gala day got me

I didn't know Lamretta had a serious SSR version

[old galleon]

define "serious"

[summer hornet]

Oh lmao

NVM then

[slow raft]

alright, got half of the cqs done

thatll do for today

[old galleon]

....palsifal dungeon my beloved?

And the spoils of my labor

so yeah that's like my second or third time ever getting failbard

at least that i can recall

[summer hornet]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcAi8FbC4wY

lmfao ||BOOTHILL REALLY DID SHOW UP WITH A VENGEANCE, I would like to just say that y'all need to answer the phone because I CALLED IT||

[runic ether]

yup

i meant to reply to the spoilered post

but

||i am a huge fan of gallagher not just being a random. hes relevant to the story and thats so nice||

[summer hornet]

paused at the beginning of ||the second Aventurine segment (where he has to start finding clues from people in Golden Hour Penacony)|| but ||I definitely agree, both with Gallagher and Sunday. They've each got way more personality and character here than I expected from 2.0, and even Aventurine as well!||

||also TOPAZ IS BACK!!! I DID NOT EXPECT TO SEE HER HERE, EVEN WITH AVENTURINE HAVING HER CORNERSTONE||

[runic ether]

||aventurine hands down is up there in terms of characters rn. go through the rest of this quest its so fucking peak||

[old galleon]

https://i.imgur.com/YWrRQcc.png

gotten 3 straight tia daggers lol

[long tree]

Hsr spoilers ||the idea of a gambler who has had to stake his life repeatedly in order to rise to the top isn't new, but with adventurine there's something new: sometimes the people just flat out turn him down when he's offered to gamble for his life, and he's had to endure some crazy implications because of it. He's not the gambler who always wins or outsmarts, sometimes he does get caught unawares but he adapts and makes it part of his plan going forward||

[versed pawn]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRIl3JqxfVk stream is tomorrow

[honest pawn]

Wuthering Waves? Nah

Wuthering Heights?

you know it bro

they updated the UI, looks clean

[slow raft]

i have noticed an issue with trying to do the mephistopheles quest with bazett

[astral drift]

I don't think this is happening

[runic ether]

||he actually does always win but even he himself wont know until the very last second||

mehh

xingqiu is great but yanfei and barbara are quite niche and the weapon banner kinda mid

[long tree]

Why is the god of hydro being sandwich between mid

[runic ether]

dont disrespect plunge barbara

yanfei is also nice not the best but nice

c4 can make her a solid shielder, she can always run burgeon well, she vapes

[late canopy]

I require c4 Yanfei in my life for my asia account so I'll be pulling a bit on this banner

I have her c6 on my NA alt and it's great

She's c3 right now on Asia

[slow raft]

This is the power of a seal designation enforcer

[old galleon]

this happened again

failbard is supposed to be extremely low percentage and i can count on one hand how much i've gotten him in 4.5 years of playing this game

and i just got him twice in a row

[honest pawn]

alright when does gbf banner change today

[long tree]

14 hours ish

[old galleon]

lemme check

you definitely save the draws, ofc

yeah as i thought

banner changes in about 7 hours

remember, premium banner pretty much always starts at noon jst

as opposed to every other banner, which starts at 7 pm jst

[dull bridge]

yooo

finally i can clear it?

[runic ether]

no way

lmao

||aventurine's childe arc is complete||

[old galleon]

inb4 they made it harder

[long tree]

They took a crowbar to their kneecaps

[dull bridge]

bro i still can’t clear part 1

[runic ether]

massive skill issue

||i wrecked him in like 3 turns||

[dull bridge]

how much do your acheron hits do

im hitting like 120k

[runic ether]

im hitting 80 -> 110 -> 250

[dull bridge]

oh wow

[long tree]

Damn

[runic ether]

i also have a ton of room for improvement

[long tree]

I got Kafka's sig and I'm hitting no where near that

My relics must be ass

[runic ether]

she wants pioneer + takama

everything else is worse

also my pela and silver wolf are very well built

[long tree]

Yeah I'm using those

Stats and comp (I'm using huohuo because I need to work on my sustains and she's the only half decent one)

[runic ether]

huohuo

[long tree]

I'm trying

[runic ether]

could have been on gepard, fireblazer, or even march on trends of the universal market

[long tree]

She's my only limited 5 star sustain, I got geppy, lynx, Gallagher but they're all built like shit

All my stamina is going into her traces

[runic ether]

gallagher is going to be ur best option besides trends gepard

[long tree]

Noted, I'll try and get my geppy up more

[runic ether]

specifically e2 gallagher

I got him E1 but we're getting a free one soon

I only got 20

lol

[old galleon]

okay so you only need at most 170 to spark

[paper spoke]

MUKKU AND GACHAPIN

[idle grove]

sure is

[dull bridge]

@runic ether i forgot i had a clara just ez cleared the boss fight and uhm what the fuck

||i have si many more questions now||

[runic ether]

||clara wrecks him yes||

[versed pawn]

i havent seen the mechanic i have to watch other people to see it and wait for the new MoC

straight up oneshot him before he could ger there

[runic ether]

yeah i have no idea if ppl are struggling vs the newest boss

i cleared it so fast too

[versed pawn]

like sam is more annoying

because is aburdly tanky in comparison

[runic ether]

moc 12 sam

easily one of the harder bosses they have added to moc

idt newest boss will be even close

[versed pawn]

he doesnt do hard dmg tho but hes made tanky and has that burn to deal that exta dmg that may off you

and healing reduction i think while that fire field is on

ey i got critdmg body upgrade tho

now i hit 100% crit with acheron

and can drop 4% substats for the new set

makes things simpler

[dull bridge]

||is ghallager the watchmaker or smt? is he connected to misha? that end really confused me||

[versed pawn]

||i dont think he is he pretty much said hes one of the childs or something like that||

[runic ether]

||how did u get that||

||theres something to be said that apparently the english translation missed that when sunday calls him out, he calls him a pathstrider of enimata||

||hes not a riddler cus he doesnt talk nonsensically so hes a history fictionologist which means hes actively creating false memories of the past in penacony||

[runic ether]

||which means for this that he is most likely making it up about knowing the watchmaker||

[dull bridge]

who is that?

[runic ether]

||mythus. the aeon of enigma||

||aka the aeon of making shit up and lying to make things a mystery||

[versed pawn]

|| so does he clothes like the higher in command family members since he assumes they goons probably dont know them all||

[runic ether]

||he is dressed and took bits and pieces of all 52 family members probably to blend in and trick everyone||

[dull bridge]

||oh i see, also i really want a picture of firefly in fire as my phone wallpaper how would i get that||

[runic ether]

||and yeah thats a big reason no one recognizes him||

[runic ether]

||screenshot||

[copper steppe]

how do i do mephisto cq, ive been trying for several times and this motherfucker just peaces out when im about to kill him

[dull bridge]

||let me rewatch ghallager cutscene to see if i understand it better now||

[long tree]

Me wondering why my gepard shield uptime is dog water, checks the rope, it's not energy regen

https://tenor.com/view/клоун-gif-13031758617125701370

[copper steppe]

finally

[old galleon]

decided to go finally farm horus since she's on bonus drops and light gw is imminent

got a harakhte within a few pubs

so we're already off to a good start

[glossy latch]

Ok time to do the story quest

... ok Im back to ||Acheron is Finality not Nihility||

That conversation with ||Duke Inferno||

||Thats just not Nihility||

The fact that ||she doesnt appear in the script|| also screams ||She's Finality|| to me

Yeah no Im ||like 99.99% certain shes finality. Her ability to mess with Destiny, and seemingly see beyond the surface just feels to Finality to me||

[versed pawn]

reached the 100%

[glossy latch]

Oh

||The Annihilation Gang werent all jobbers||

[runic ether]

||it was just duke and he knew he wasnt gonna make it far cus of his own dying fire||

||his death likely fueled his children into becoming more realistic threats over time||

[glossy latch]

I guess that makes sense

[runic ether]

do u want a tiny spoiler about this

[glossy latch]

||You dont set them up to waste them like that||

[runic ether]

cus its on the acheron trailer

[glossy latch]

Shoot

[runic ether]

||acheron is a self-annihilator||

||she is an emanator of nihility 100%. this doesnt change that it could be that nihility -> finality some time in the future and it may be that acheron is the reason for the eventual nihility turning into finality||

||but she is labeled in the your color trailer as a self-annihilator||

[glossy latch]

Oh really?

Huh

[runic ether]

||in the bottom right it fades in and out in black letters||

[glossy latch]

Huh

[runic ether]

and

later on in the story spoilers

||her affiliation title changes to self-annihilator in-game||

[versed pawn]

weekly boss did not like that

[slow raft]

5 hours, 5 high difficulty quests left

[long tree]

Iirc ||Acherons worlds equivalent to finality and origin were both destroyed by her, her original weapon was that of the finality, and she destroyed it when she sliced the origin in half, unless myriad celestias aren't canon||

[runic ether]

||u misunderstood entirely. ovven and i have been theorizing that ix will become terminus since terminus is moving backwards through time||

[long tree]

Oh i see

[copper steppe]

i need to speedrun the 2nd cup

[slow raft]

brother im in the mines of that currently

[runic ether]

the gacha players yearn for the mines

[slow raft]

true, this is the most fun ive had in a while

maybe not putting it off for like 2 weeks next time

fuma is just spamming evade rn tho

And thats that

[versed pawn]

Leave me out of your speed run

[glossy latch]

Ok calling it now ||Dr. Ratios "betrayal" wasnt one||

[rigid pilot]

I spent most of my time on those before farming more in earnest. Ended up at 50 boxes but I got all the CQ's done

[slow raft]

well im at 27 boxes and i have onkly the normal one done

also i fucking forgor that astraes np gives invuln pierce :icant:

[astral drift]

106 boxes 🥲

wish i had more apples

[glossy latch]

||"An emanator who shouldn't exist"||

||Ominous, but that ... doesnt really line up with any theory rn does it?||

[runic ether]

it do

||emanators of nihility shouldnt exist since ix in theory, shouldnt ever care about making them||

[digital marlin]

so many bars

a minefield of spoilers

[glossy latch]

||Hm. I wonder||

||The fact that Aventurine considered it a possibility makes it sound like thats not so strange||

[long tree]

Hehehe

[runic ether]

||it isnt really. since there are enough emanators of ix that they form the group called self-annihilators and of course doctors of chaos that study said self-annihilators||

[runic ether]

not inviting the express family

[long tree]

[long tree]

You don't understand I had to drag herta away from her work because the option was there, and I wasn't not gonna pick jingyuan Guin and black swan

[runic ether]

did it give u an achievement?

cus if not u miss out on the achievement for getting the express crew to take a pic

[long tree]

Ye it did

I think it was for dragging herta out of the station because you have to ask her multiple times

[runic ether]

lol

and she still only sent a puppet

rip

wonder when/if we will ever get to see the real herta

[glossy latch]

Oh hey, hot bartender lady

Iirc her NPC model was leaked

[long tree]

Oh good I wasn’t the only one who thought she was hot

[glossy latch]

... why are you surprised?

[long tree]

Idk

[glossy latch]

||Oh and of course she has a girl crushing hard on her||

Im assuming 2.2 is the finale?

Or is it 2.3

(Still not finished, just guessing based on the vibes™️)

[runic ether]

should be 2.3

but 2.2 is going to be the climax more or less

[glossy latch]

And 2.3 is basically the epilogue?

[runic ether]

yeah

most likely

oh are u done already with 2.1?

[glossy latch]

Not quite

I just got past ||Welt and Acheron meeting with Sunday||

Which I assume is close to the end

[runic ether]

approaching

theres a bit more after

[glossy latch]

Hah, knew it

||That was Jades Cornerstone||

Man the difference in quality between Xianzhou and this is sharp

[astral drift]

i lied

[old galleon]

did they ever fix that liz cq people were bitching about

[astral drift]

what's the broken part

[slow raft]

i didnt notice any issues, so probably?

[old galleon]

i don't even konw

people online were just complaining about it

i think somethign with her damage

[slow raft]

i mean i first tried it with her as my only dps, so i imagine thats not an issue anymore

now its time to do the last two remaining quests (the two super high difficulty ones)

wish me luck

[old galleon]

i like how this banner has only two rate up golds, so of course i've been spooked by zara twice on it

make it make sense

on the upside i've finally hit pity

https://i.imgur.com/WBYLyZ6.jpeg

it's been 3,000 years...

the banner insists on giving me spooks

two zara and now eugen

[glossy latch]

Oh come on

||Theyre refusing to tell us Acherons true identity?||

Also damn I wish we would get this form as a playable unit or outfit

||It looks sick with the mask||

[runic ether]

||aventurine? yeah hes fucking cool||

||the theme is so good too||

[glossy latch]

||Jazz is always good||

Also huh

This boss is tough

[old galleon]

https://i.imgur.com/fq1Wuoz.png

finally, some decent rolls

i like how some of the comments on friedrich are "anson was better" (she wasn't)

i also find it funny that in a banner that was supposed to be a bunch of new british ships, the best one is a german

that they likely only added as an emergency replacement for anson

[long tree]

Whomst is Anson

[old galleon]

a ship they revealead for this banner and subsequently removed bc people got pissed

anson is a kgv-class battleship

so you'd figure her design would keep to the themes already established by ships like kgv, prince of wales, etc

instead, she looked like a fucking submarine

https://old.reddit.com/r/AzureLane/comments/1bli24u/royal_navy_anson_announced_king_george_vclass/

[long tree]

Cringe

[old galleon]

so not too long after her reveal, we got this

https://old.reddit.com/r/AzureLane/comments/1bmh02i/azur_lane_jp_announces_hms_ansons_implementation/

[glossy latch]

... it was ||Gallagher all along?||

[runic ether]

||right? that caught me off-guard. i know i saw a theory how he was sus and connected to something unto death but he outright controls it||

[glossy latch]

||I noticed the Thirteen, and I assumed it was something to do with Tarot (though I didnt check) but it still feels ... odd?||

That being said, the rest of the story was a banger

It is genuinely shocking just how vast the canyon in quality between Xienzhou and Penacony is

[runic ether]

ikr

[runic ether]

||yeah the hint he gave us when march asked. also a huge thing that is missing from english voice. sunday calls him a minion of enigmata||

||since he isnt speaking in riddles, this means hes a history fictionologist||

[glossy latch]

Oh that was patched in

||Its not voiced tho||

[runic ether]

ah

nice

||it puts into context so much of what he said is 100% bs||

||i would doubt he knows the watchmaker/is the watchmaker himself? the story he gave about mikhail is likely false. its possible siobhan is with him given their familiarity with the place but maybe she is having 2nd doubts about the plan/is more involved in penacony's ecosystem than he is?||

||theres a ton to unpack||

oh also

||gallagher's texts to you when he speaks about a new pet. i have a feeling hes talking about something unto death||

[glossy latch]

Remind me

||How did we fall into the childs dream in 2.0s story again?||

[runic ether]

||sparkle yeeted us there||

[glossy latch]

Oh right

||She made us sleep||

Hmmm

||Does the Memory Zone Meme "Death" also bring people there?||

Also

[runic ether]

my guess

[glossy latch]

||At this point 4* are always the true villains huh?||

[runic ether]

||the meme is sending ppl to wherever robin, sunday, aventurine, and firefly went||

[runic ether]

||except for cocolia rip bozo||

[glossy latch]

Hmm

||That still makes me wonder how Sam was back so soon after Fireflies "Death"||

[summer hornet]

How long did it take you to clear Penacony, sheesh

I'm still just over 2/3, I think- the part where ||Aventurine enters the amusement park||

[runic ether]

||p sure it was bc firefly was pulled out by silver wolf||

[glossy latch]

Uhhh

[runic ether]

||peak incoming||

[glossy latch]

Like 4 hours?

Its a decent chunk

Very well written though

Surprisingly so even

[summer hornet]

It's so good so far

I think I've spent like five hours already, but then again I spent a while just playing as the demo Aventurine and Acheron

[runic ether]

😔

[copper steppe]

missed erice and the last quest

but man mhxx was quite easy

[slow raft]

mhxx i did bazett

did you know that alter egos have class advantage against foreigners? i didnt before today

[old galleon]

THAT WAS THE WHOLE POINT OF RELEASING THE MECHA ELIS RIGHT BEFORE SALEM

[copper steppe]

https://tenor.com/view/the-more-you-know-gif-26317296

[slow raft]

something that i was definitely around for

[old galleon]

: ^)

[slow raft]

erice was simple for me since i have a fairly strong barghest

and the last quest i just used my command seals lmao

[old galleon]

oh shit right banner reset

[slow raft]

couldve done without but why bother

[old galleon]

they exist to be used

[slow raft]

use em or lose em as they say

cq luckily i could ignore all mechanics because melusine is so busted

[old galleon]

today's freebies gave me absolutely nothing

[slow raft]

this was also a fun fight

The sexist gods fear the nonbinary avenger

What a fun event, they should do more of these

Maybe in a year or two once i have actually leveled skill on any servant outside the main 20 or so i use

[old galleon]

not an event but (oc spoilers) ||around fall next year there'll be a 10 wave gauntlet that's part of oc content, culminating in a fight against a variation of olga marie||

||can't use supports, and both servants and craft essences are limited to one use||

||so you can't just cheese all 10 waves with castoria or koyan or whatever||

[summer hornet]

not being an event means I can challenge it at my leisure

I look forward to it

[old galleon]

well, it's "not an event" in the sense that you'll always be able to play it and clear it, but only once after a certain amount of time

only for a limited amount of time are you allowed to do however many runs you want

which is stupid bc this gauntlet (and presumably the others they may eventually release) is great for testing the depths of your roster

[slow raft]

||The ce part is the hard part for me ||

[old galleon]

as long as you keep up with events, you'll be fine on ces

after sea monster, there'll be a collab with learning with manga

that one has one of the best ces in teh game

[slow raft]

Tbh only things that i feel are missing nowadays are like

[old galleon]

but a lot of events have decent filler you can use if you lack options

[slow raft]

More than one kaleidoscope and maybe id like a black grail or two

[old galleon]

sea monster has a 50% ce that i remember being not great, but usable

honestly, i don't use kscope that much anymore, let alone dupes

bg is great if you have it, but you probably only really want one

[runic ether]

glad i wasnt the only one who did this lol

[old galleon]

anyway, i caved and bought both gala scams

[runic ether]

yup

[old galleon]

ended up getting kaguya (yay) and leona (less yay) out of them

[runic ether]

ive seen like

5-6 good crit link ropes

and only 2 have rolled well

[slow raft]

Yeah i also dont need double kscope that much but it came up multiple times this event so its fresh in my mimd

[old galleon]

my biggest use case for kscope nowadays is simply getting castoria to np or something

and even that's doable with the imaginary element

all the other use cases are for weird buster looping setups i can do better than with other stuff anyway

[slow raft]

Yeah i had to use my non mlb imaginary element

[old galleon]

kscope's still good, but it's not like you're missing that much for not having dupes

mlb bg would be incredible ofc, but it took me basically teh entirety of my time playing the game to get it last year

and the odds are even worse now

[slow raft]

Many of my servants dont need mlb luckily

[old galleon]

(regular bg is still quite usable if you have it)

[slow raft]

Append skill my beloved

I dont have a single copy of bg

[old galleon]

then the best general substitute is heaven's feel if you have that

[slow raft]

Yeah thats what i usually go for
