old galleon
#

i haven't even watched the new s&w episode yet bc i'm trying to just finish it

#

i guess if it's any consolation, the 6ce for 90+ is really easy

#

but still

summer hornet
#

Wait huh

#

What setup are you using

old galleon
#

hokusaber/morgan/2x castoria

summer hornet
#

I’ve been doing Muramasa/double Castoria with Mash, Melt and Taisui as backline

#

Ah

old galleon
#

give me a min to finish this run and i'll post my comp

#

morgan basically never kills the 90k dude in wave 2 with her np so i have to card, but it's still stable

#

ignore the wonky cut, i had it sized to another bluestacks window and forgot lol

#

np2 morgan would make this completely free but alas

#

wave 1: hokusai 1/3, castoria all (target hokusai), swich for second castoria, second castoria 3 on hokusai, np
wave 2: castoria all (target hokusai), morgan 1, 2 targeting hokusai, mc atk buff, np, and try to set up cards that'll kill the rest of the big guy
wave 3: hokusai np

summer hornet
#

This is my setup- every backline member has some kind of Con bonus, plus Mash can offer extra NP bar in a pinch

old galleon
#

what cons does mash buff?

summer hornet
#

I don’t have a consistent strategy, unfortunately- there’s a mix of Castoria NPs for overcharge and Muramasa crits on wave 1 + 3

summer hornet
#

The blue one

old galleon
#

which color are those?

#

ok

summer hornet
#

Gamepress using different terminology than the game smh

#

Sorry

old galleon
#

i don't remember which ones the game refers to to start with

#

i've just been identifying them by their color

#

if you have morgan then you shoudl be able to replicate what i'm doing

#

surely you have hokusaber

summer hornet
#

I don’t have Morgan

old galleon
#

hm

#

the big issue is hokusaber lacking servant coins

#

bc for me she gets to 38% gauge after wave 1

#

idk how much it'd be without castoria's 2 but i could at least have that in the back pocket for wave 2

#

i was thinking if she had them that you could try what i'm doing, but replace morgan with muramasa

#

that way you could get away with not having 20% of hokusai's battery come from morgan

#

hmm

#

hokusaber/oberon/castoria/castoria, do what i do, and make sure you use oberon's 3 on himself turn 2

#

hokusaber 1/3, all castoria targeting hokusaber, switch the castorias, castoria 3 on hokusaber, np
all castoria targeting hokusaber, all oberon, with his 2 targeting hokusaber and his 3 targeting himself, oberon np
hokusaber np

#

if he's at high enough np levels he may be able to get away without using his 3, then he can save his 2 for wave 3 if you don't want to deal with the np reduction between those waves

summer hornet
#

I’ll give it a shot!

old galleon
#

i don't think the np reduction in wave 2 will be enough to knock hokusai out of np, but if it is, then it won't work

#

so that's the main thing i'd check for

#

the secondary thing is whether even with oberon's 3 he'll kill wave 2 or not

#

i'm sure he'll kill the small fry but the bigger one idk

#

so consider preparing that turn to card just in case

summer hornet
#

Mine is NP2, so maybe that’ll clutch it?

old galleon
#

oh if he's np2 he should be good

#

idk if that means he won't need his 3, tho

summer hornet
#

Oh wait does it need grailed s Hokusai

old galleon
#

it shouldn't

#

mine is grailed but only to 90 and she does way more than enough damage

#

it's not like her rolls are particularly tight

summer hornet
#

lol, fair point

#

The np gain is the issue, not the damage

old galleon
#

she only overkills wave 1 for me on the last hit

#

it's not like she's overkilling half the hits or whatever

#

and overkill in wave 3 doesn't matter

#

and actually you might not need oberon's 2 on hokusai at all

#

if she gets at least 30% from wave 1, then castoria's 1/2 and oberon's 1 will cover the remaining

summer hornet
#

Yeah, unless I do something wrong that should be fine

old galleon
#

lmk if it works or not

#

if it doesn't then i can try to come up with something else

summer hornet
#

Okay so I messed up on the kill for wave 2 first try, but that was because I didn’t use Oberon’s super-nuke on himself

#

Still, using it wave 3 got the kill even with Hokusai missing half her normal buffs

#

So I’ll try to readjust that

runic ether

we got a trailer for a trailer

summer hornet
#

Lmao

old galleon
#

i heard you like trailers

runic ether
#

wait holy shit this may be related to more than a few theories about arlecchino

#

weirdly has parallels to fucking hollow knight and dark souls

#

also ashikai may have actually been cooking with her batshit insane theory

summer hornet
#

Your setup was consistent btw, Argor!

#

It’s 9 gold/10 blue/7 red as opposed to my last strategy’s 8/10/8, but being consistent means I can run it faster with zero chance of dropping

old galleon
#

good

old galleon
#

i'm becoming more convinced galliard might be the best f2p attacker in the game now

#

helps that earth has a handy dandy easy res down button in helena

#

but still

#

like his performance here is really good

#

and he's only at 30 shadow lol

#

he def gives aldo real competition in that regard

#

compared to aldo, he requires more intensive setup

#

aldo's definitely easier to use in dungeon runs and whatnot

dull bridge
#

what's the rest of the team?

dull bridge
#

BRO u got to be joking

#

thats what I get for auto ig

mystic python
# dull bridge what's the rest of the team?

Bronya + Tingyun very good
Sustain can be Gallagher/Lynx/whichever other sustains are freed up and deal with your current enemies the best (honestly surprised Gallagher isn't with Acheron)
Depending on the content ur against you can flex in a Clara/Herta/Asta over either the sustain or one of the harmony chars (probably Tingyun)

dull bridge
#

ok

#

tats what I thought

dull bridge
#

ill prob build ghallager soon

#

I think my priiority rn is gnna be ghallager and than try to get a speeeeeeeeeeedy bronya

#

cause I dont wanna deal with speed tuning

mystic python
#

Fair ye; Lynx would see play regardless, only thing that changes is on what team

dull bridge
#

I also dont have ghallager e2 whcih is kinda sad

#

fuck it imma roll for a e2 ghallager

#

stupid idea

#

welp

#

got like e10 dan heng and pela

#

but no ghallager

#

is shame

mystic python
#

Ye I'm in the same boat

#

Now I have a guarantee and still E0

dull bridge
#

is he still good without e2?

#

it feels kinda nesscaary but idk

#

and i am on 55 for sam

#

which is nice

#

on my 50/50 aswell but i dont lose 50/50s 😎

mystic python
#

I got my only copy yesterday from the drinks event so I haven't tried yet, but he's looked pretty good from what I've seen without having to use his E at all

dull bridge
#

ok

mystic python
#

That being said it's probably really nice utility and I'm tempted to continue rolling again

dull bridge
#

HOLY SHIT

#

HOLY SHIT

Stay tuned!

im late but THIS IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FIRE

Remember, the best catalyst for the one eyed spy is his oshi

old galleon
#

oshi no ho(ederer)

glossy latch
#

Wait why does the interlude quest need completed character quests?

runic ether
#

which one?

#

i think ik which interlude u are going through but just asking to be sure

glossy latch
#

The second chasm one I think?

#

I cant start it

#

Because it requires character quests i havent done yet

#

Specifically Shoguns second and Ittos first

runic ether
#

yup

#

thought so

#

u need to have cleared raiden's 2nd and itto's quest for some small lore reasons

#

raiden's for general story spoilers about

#

well all of genshin

#

and itto cus u need to have met him

#

small chasm spoiler. hes in the hole.

dull bridge
#

ngl

#

i forget raiders quest

#

i did it so long ago

#

and zhonglis

glossy latch
#

I see

dull bridge
#

i know they were important?

runic ether
#

raiden 2nd quest has some major story beats about genshin

#

so does zhongli's

glossy latch
#

Well Ill have to do those then

dull bridge
#

or at least i think they are important

runic ether
#

2nd

glossy latch
#

I wanna get the interlude cleared so I can get more wishes for Arle

#

Since were getting her soon

runic ether
#

next week exactly

dull bridge
#

imma need to spend

#

if i want arle

runic ether
#

couldnt be me

dull bridge
#

i have legit no pills

#

im on like 60 pity though

#

i also haven't preformed jack shit

#

like i have 0 exp books

glossy latch
#

Oh I havent pre-farmed much either ... I probably should huh

runic ether
#

i already have all her mats besides the new boss mat

glossy latch
#

Eh fuck it, I have so much of the resin possible

runic ether
#
  • the exp + weapon exp
dull bridge
#

i have no resin

#

lmao

#

im really fucked

glossy latch
#

The weekly boss mats will basically put a time limit on the skill I assume?

dull bridge
#

i just haven't been playing much genshin

#

because my computer crashes

#

when I play it

runic ether
#

lol

dull bridge
#

which is really fucking annoying

#

so i've just been playing star rail

#

i really need a new pc

glossy latch
#

Wait isnt the weekly boss hard-limited to once per week?

dull bridge
#

i have this sjitty laptop

runic ether
glossy latch
#

Ah

#

But you can still get it for 60 after that then?

runic ether
#

ya

dull bridge
#

are you crowning her misty

long tree
#

By the time arle comes out I’ll have 50 pulls and 5 pity, so I’m gonna need to win my 50/50

dull bridge
#

i have 0 pulls and like 50-60 pity?

long tree
#

Hopefully genshin is nice to me considering I lost my last 4 50/50s

glossy latch
#

Ive got 151 pulls and like 60 pity

#

So I can guarantee Arle, and have a good shot at her weapon

#

If I win the 50/50 I might guarantee the weapon

#

And then ... I have no idea

#

Maybe Alhaitham if he gets a rerun

runic ether
#

haitham is good

#

could always wait for future dedicated arle supports

glossy latch
#

Maybe, but I doubt theyll make a bond of life support ngl

runic ether
#

actually

#

given the existence of characters like shenhe, faruzan, sara

#

theres a very good chance

dull bridge
#

I really wanna run solo arle

#

she seems good enougj solo

#

with enougj investment

#

and skill

old galleon
#

til the voice of olga marie also voices nona

which is an interesting display of range

both in voice and in character archetype

@old galleon making your FGO tagline “GW is your duty” is insidious

For the record, no spoilers once again- it’s even shorter than Sparkle’s was, and the only lines in it are reprised from the 2.0 Penacony story

Some believe that growing up is to gradually break free from the shackles.
Fate sets the most brutal rules for us, turning day into night, leaving the future dwelling in but the lingering warmth of dreams.
Thus, our weapons clash, burying the remnants of another setting sun, and welcoming the next rising dawn.

holy shit

#

they cooked

#

interesting point

#

||arlecchino ascended as the knave and signora and scara were already harbingers that much is obvious. what isnt obvious though is that it is very possible that she may have been harbinger before even pantalone, pulcinella, colombina, or dottore since only 3 + pierro are present||

#

also ||her given name was peruere which is also interesting||

#

another interesting point

#

||as a child, arle had pyro abilities without a vision||

#

||previous knave had a hydro delusion||

#

and something not conveyed well in english

#

||the girl she was hugging and had to kill, which looks a lot like the girl in the 4.6 web page talking with lyney, lynette, and freminet, is called the previous director's biological daughter||

#

also holy shit erin voices young arlecchino too??

#

shes got hella range

old galleon
#

i've gone 15 straight runs in toto without getting any shadow for galliard

#

and at a total rate of 24.8%, that's kinda bullshit

#

ttw calculates l/s gain differently since there's a chance you get more than one per run

#

the effective rate is 24.8%, but apparently the odds of seeing any at all are still only 20%

#

even so, to not get any in 15 runs is really sus

#

it'd be like missing fissure 12 times in a row in pokemon

long tree
#

Just saw the new arle short

#

If the genshin anime looks like that we're in good hands good DAMN

slow raft
#

so i did 2 tenners on the aventurine banner

#

cause i needed aidolons for all of the 4stars on it

#

and lets just say

#

my choice for the free 5 star just narrowed down a bit

#

i didnt even realize that one could get a 5 star before pity so this was a nice suprise

dull bridge
glossy latch
#

Did 1 10 pull on the banner, no Aventurine pensivecowboybread

#

But I did get Lynx' E2

#

Next would be E4 but the other 4* are at E6 already so Ill have to save

dull bridge
#

oh i want lynx eidolons

#

but not adventuring

#

🤔

#

Whats the best set for ghalllager?

#

2 wanderer 2 messenger?

#

does 2 messenger 2 long work?

mystic python
#

His healing doesn't scale off his HP

#

Break effect gives him more healing (up to 150% break effect)

dull bridge
#

i decided to just do 2 passerby 2 messenger with perfect timing and keel

#

keel buffs my acheron

mystic python
#

Ye that's solid

dull bridge
#

timing gives me more outgoing healing

#

messneger is fast

#

and passerby is more healing

runic ether
#

we blamimg shaoji for this one

Hoyoverse is a tragic backstory lesbian manufacturer

Gonna take a break from the Foxian Beauty mission to get my guaranteed Aventurine now

but this is WILD

#

My condolences

copper steppe
#

lol

summer hornet
#

e2 now

copper steppe
#

my apologies

summer hornet
#

okay so I'm definitely not getting e2 Aventurine lmao

runic ether
#

u were going for e2?

summer hornet
#

I was hoping

#

a naive hope that has since been ruthlessly crushed by reality

#

I did not understand the game at all

runic ether
#

i gotta double check idt u are missing out on much

#

e1 is the stopping point iirc

old galleon
summer hornet
#

hooooo boy

old galleon
#

finished rolling my gw boxes

#

did 56 full boxes with almost 1,000 on the 57th

#

after the 44th box doing a full box costs 10k tokens so it ramped up a lot toward the end

runic ether
#

oh shit i was way farther from pity than i thought. im a 10 roll away from the 50/50

#

anyways though @summer hornet aventurine's e1 >>>> his other cons until e6

#

super tldr on it

#

e1 > s1 > e2

#

if you want to invest in aventurine

#

ill be getting him after arle since im at like 50 jades rn lol

#

i thought i was 10 pulls deeper

#

4pc knight or 2pc knight 2 pc fua

dull bridge
#

pwrden says 4pc

#

but I personally would run 2 2

#

if I was pulling for him

runic ether
#

prydwen is tripping on some characters and builds

#

4pc works for sure

dull bridge
#

yeah

runic ether
#

but aventurine's personal damage is significant

dull bridge
#

I just think his damage is very noticable

#

aand you should be capatalizing on tha

#

t

runic ether
#

yes thats what i said

dull bridge
#

yeah

#

I was typing as you sent

#

:.

#

ngl if I was pulling I would wanna do, 2pc 2pc with salsetto and threads

runic ether
#

salsotto is a given but keel will also net him a lot of damage

#

breakpoints is 4k def and 134 speed

dull bridge
#

Yeah while buffing other team

#

ive seen people say base is fine for speed

runic ether
#

it can be but 134 speed is always good

dull bridge
#

fair enough

runic ether
#

2pc pioneer and 2pc fua is also very viable on him

#

if you have his signature cone, pioneer quickly becomes his best set

#

e2s1 runs pioneer 100%

#

cdmg/speed/imaginary/def

#

im not going for his lc though since i will likely use trends or one of my three moments of victory lcs

long tree
#

Me reading aventurines technique

#

That's a lot of defense

runic ether
#

aventurine completely gaps gepard

#

gepard is still usable sure

#

but aventurine is so much more real as a sustainer and a dps

#

actually specifically his dps is huge

#

no other sustainer comes close besides fu xuan

#

and with either trends of his signature, he applies a fair bit of debuffs for acheron too

#

or for ratio

#

the only "downside" to aventurine is that his ult does have an rng element

#

so you cant guarantee a fua

#

and

#

all his teams will require great investment into all the members

long tree
#

Who would win:
Man who is a dying citys last line of defense, who's devoted to protecting and guarding the last bastion of humanity in a cold and cruel world

Twink who puts too much money on dice but it works out

#

I love this about gachas tbh it's just funny

runic ether
#

?

#

aventurine is an extremely powerful individual

#

much stronger than gepard lorewise

long tree
#

Oh no I know he's very strong and stuff

#

Just comparing the characters though

runic ether
#

right and aventurine is still way more attuned to the preservation than gepard even

long tree
#

I'm just saying it's funny I'm not trying to say gepard is the end all be all of defense, like it's just funny the man who has dedicated his life to defending his city gets out beaten on defense by aventurine and presumably every preservation character to come out

summer hornet
#

Gepard technically doesn't have any Preservation connection at all lol

runic ether
#

he does

summer hornet
#

He got a shield generator and stuffed it inside his sister's old guitar case

runic ether
#

jarilo was directly connected and drew power from the amber lord

#

until it got cut off

#

gepard is a pathstrider of the preservation and is aware enough to worship the amber lord since its still passed down through belobog

#

hes just not as dedicated to the amber lord as someone who literally has a piece of the amber lord's flesh with him

summer hornet
#

I mean yeah he's dedicated to the path of Preservation, but he's not powered by it, no?

#

Gepard, that is

runic ether
#

he is loosely

#

all pathstriders are powered by the aeon of the path they follow

#

aka our playable characters

summer hornet
#

Wtf

runic ether
#

they are at least using a bit of power from the aeon

#

its not a direct connection like emmanators

#

there would be a huge power difference between acheron and herta vs hook or pela or serval

summer hornet
#

I mean naturally

runic ether
#

and even among the playable cast there are different depths of power of course

#

not just from gameplay

summer hornet
#

That's news to me though. I assumed most people were just like, regular people worshipping gods

#

Not that their faith literally gave them a buff

runic ether
#

they are but they still get some form of power up from following the aeon their path follows

#

every single person we play is at least a pathstrider and all pathstriders have, in theory, the capability of becoming an aeon

#

since we know aeons rise and fall with some regularity

#

and we also know that aeons were once pathstriders

summer hornet
#

So it's literally like the thing in Genshin

#

Wow

runic ether
#

yeah more or less lol

#

the scale is different but

#

yeah

#

vision holders are all capable of ascending to godhood

#

the difference is that archons =/= emmanators

long tree
#

Imaginary energy is in all hoyoverse games iirc, how it's distributed and manifested differs but usually if you understand how one games power system works it'll help you understand the others

runic ether
#

archons are closer in comparison to aeons

#

also archons have their preferences on who they grant visions to lol

#

ie: anemo vision? you lost someone important in your life in some form + you crave a form of freedom

#

geo vision is about stability

long tree
#

I like to imagine the archons get to plug in a personality trait + a background trait into a machine and then they just let it run and that's how visions get distributed

runic ether
#

cryo vision usually is granted to people who are outside the usual societal norms or their forced roles

#

electro is if you are a lesbian or a dog

long tree
#

I love how razor is just there, as a treat

runic ether
#

pyro has some form of aggressiveness or tempered aggro

runic ether
#

and sethos soon

long tree
#

Oh shit right how did I forget about him

runic ether
#

its fine

#

we get clorinde to keep the agenda of electro characters all being lesbians

#

clorinde 4.7 btw

#

with sethos and siegwinne

#

dendro vision is all about wisdom of some sort too

#

actually

#

pyro and hydro visions are a bit convoluted in what they rep

#

we can guess pyro requires a sort of aggression

#

though hydro is all over the place

#

xinqiu cares a lot about books and honor but then yelan is a secret agent who isnt afraid to get her hands dirty and break laws to get to her targets

#

on the flipside, kokomi is a military general, ayato is also a high ranking official

#

which would indicate maybe the thing about hydro is granted to those who are in a position of power?

#

yelan works directly for ningguang and xinqiu is the heir to the merchant's guild of liyue

#

but then barbara, while a deconess and an idol in mondstat, wouldnt paint her as someone in power

#

childe further throws things off. hes in a position of power sure but hes not top dog or as close as the others

#

and he only cares about fighting like a maniac

long tree
#

Maybe it's the ability to draw an audience?

runic ether
#

mona is another big wrench

runic ether
#

in theory shes the apprentice to one of the most powerful persons in all of teyvat

#

but shes always broke

#

and shes in no position of power or really cares too much about justice or honor

long tree
#

Yeah she's the one I can't really explain with this except via divinations maybe she can draw in an audience

#

But that's a weak ass explanation

runic ether
#

candace also isnt really drawing an audience

#

i guess if theres anything to say about hydro

late canopy
#

It was a running joke for a while that everyone in Pyro is some happy cheerful person and then you have Diluc

runic ether
#

actually

long tree
#

NGL I completely forgot about Candace

runic ether
#

is that for hydro, you have to have been a successor to a great power before you?

#

that might be it actually

#

yelan's clan was deeply involved with the adepti and the yaksha

#

barbara's father was the master of the knights and her mother the head of the church

#

ayato's parents ran their commission

#

candace is a descendent of king desheret

#

childe is theorized to be a reincarnation of a great hero

#

kokomi was theorized to have been a reborn dragon

#

xq's parents of course

#

yea this is the only one i can think of

#

furina spoilers ||is the chosen successor of egeria||

long tree
#

If that's it that implies Klee is so destructive that it over wrote her being the daughter of the worlds greatest adventurer which is funny af

runic ether
#

siegewinne spoilers ||is a child of the great abyssal beast elynas||

#

yeah okay thats

#

the only way i can connect hydro and why someone can get a hydro vision

#

wait fuck

#

nilou

#

fuck

#

she came from a completely ordinary family in sumeru

#

nevermind

#

she wont throw a wrench in this because i can just ignore her

#

her brain is completely smooth anyways

#

she doesnt count

#

actually pyro can be somewhat surmised as a rebellion against the norm

#

amber isnt a very traditional mondstater or knight being the sole outrider

#

bennett despite his awful luck continues to defy the norms and survive

#

What about yanfei or Thoma I know barely anything about them

runic ether
#

thoma is a housekeeper but acts more like a mafia informant

glossy latch
#

Thoma is an outsider so it kinda works

#

Yanfei is ... yeah idk

runic ether
#

yeah only thing i can pin on yanfei being different is her like

#

her being the new age adepti

#

shes very different from ganyu or xianyun or xiao or streetward rambler

#

shes the new generation of adepti living a very different life compared to the old

Wasnt Kazuyas friend a pyro vision holder?

which means his friend was either a lesbian or a dog

#

... whats geos themeing?

runic ether
#

geo's theme is stability

#

and preservation (lol)

#

everyone that's geo is stable and a solid foundation around others

glossy latch
#

... how is Itto either of those?

runic ether
#

wym

#

itto is the reason the arataki gang hangs around

#

he does a lot to keep them together and unite them

glossy latch
#

Isnt that uhhh

#

Whats her name

runic ether
#

(for ill or ilk)

#

kuki

#

kuki is still subservient to itto in the gang

#

hes the boss

#

and without itto, there would be no gang

#

basically all the geo characters are some form of stability or foundation to a group/place

#

without noelle a lot of mondstat falls apart

#

without yun jin, her opera troupe does not work

#

without itto, there is no arataki gang

#

without navia, the spina di rosula doesnt exist

#

without gorou, watatsumi's military doesnt exist

#

without albedo, mondstat's alchemy and tech just doesnt happen (lisa is too lazy for that)

#

without chiori, the world of fashion in fontaine is not relevant

#

i left klee out and lyney

#

since they are unique cases

#

since we know why lyney got a vision

#

and then klee im guessing has a pyro vision because

#

well im gonna guess its because of her mom

#

i think

#

klee does not have a real vision

#

like zhongli or venti's fake vision

#

klee just naturally can manipulate pyro energies

long tree
#

Could just be her rebeling against the knights of favonious and blowing shit up

runic ether
#

ehhh maybe?

#

we know she was given a vision

#

but was it a real vision?

#

or was it just alice handing her a fake vision for an explosion well done

#

i wouldnt doubt if alice granted her said vision herself

#

its most definitely not outside of alice's capabilities

#

klee is an interesting character by proxy of her mother and her vision and abilities are an extension of this

#

wait is Gepard bad now

old galleon
#

problem is when other stuff interferes

digital marlin
#

its learning how to balance the other stuff and fgo

runic ether
#

just outclassed

#

he had been outclassed by fu xuan already but at least he had a niche with his shield

#

but now aventurine has a stronger shield but on his skill and with infinitely better damage and effects

#

also his role as a sustainer is heavily compromised by even newer 4 stars

#

1st that came along was lynx. who heals and debuff cleanses very well. a bit worse u can argue since shields have a particular role that healing wont have

#

then we got huohuo

#

who heals, buffs atk, regens team energy, and debuff cleanses all in one

#

again, u can argue sure healing and shielding are different and his shields can still be relevant

digital marlin
runic ether
#

then gallagher

#

his whole kit puts even luocha on a run for his money

#

healing? insane. dps? very solid. debuff cleanse? with his e2

#

an e2 gallagher will always be better than gepard

#

pre-e2 they are about even in terms of sustaining a team

#

and now aventurine who just

#

powercreeps all of gepard

Also wait I just realised

#

||Does Arlecchino go by "father" since they reject the previous knaves methods and as such her name of "mother"?||

runic ether
#

yup

#

thats the main theory rn

#

||crucabena was a caring and doting "mother" on the outside but a ruthless and sadistic person on the inside. arlecchino is the opposite. a cold and unfeeling father on the outside but a caring father on the inside||

#

basically

glossy latch
#

||I mean she still trains children to be assassins no?||

runic ether
#

yes

#

||though given the fact that lyney, lynette, and freminet are all way more well adjusted, she has definitely changed the way the house operates.||

#

we know as well

#

through various world quests

#

||that there are original members of the old house who followed crucabena and are on the run trying to fit the agenda of crucabena||

#

||and they are hunted down by arlecchino||

#

||another fun detail is that we know that the house is not as violent within itself anymore at all. no more rituals of many kids killing themselves to produce a single powerful assassin to be handed over to the tsartiza since our main trio are not worried about something like that||

Or have ungodly relic luck

runic ether

it makes sense since the level cap in hsr is lower

and since it doesnt has to test your reflexes or cancel skills

it needs to make the game harder somehow

Hsr shouldn't be too bad unless you're going for MoC 12 in which case yeah good relics are probably very recommended

they almost have the same kit as dioscuri though

and i already did way to many cope rolls for morgan lmao

honest pawn
#

I shall remain here, ever vigilant until the Oberon arrives

copper steppe
#

i’ll cope and dream until next morgan banner

old galleon
#

she has no other regular banner in jp

#

so unless they do one in jp, or global gives us a unique morgan banner

#

alternatively, you can go for summer morgan next year

copper steppe
#

yeah i’ll try fae cup

#

i’ll resort to breaking the piggy bank with this one

summer hornet
#

Still on my premeditated schedule of Zhang Jiao -> Arcueid(?) -> Summer Skadi -> Kukulkan -> Summer 8

#

Thinking I may try for NP2 Bazett whenever she gets another banner though; turns out I like using her a LOT

copper steppe
#

may go for kuku and tez

old galleon
#

isn't zhang jiao a standard 3*?

copper steppe
#

i think he comes with charlie?

summer hornet
#

ye he's a nonlimited 3-star on Charlie's banner

#

but I like having fields for free

old galleon
#

then you'll definitely get him np5 easily over time

summer hornet
#

so I put a note in for him specifically

old galleon
#

same with xu fu

#

who i think is more important

summer hornet
#

I'm rolling less and less these days, so while I'm sure he'll come eventually it'll also take longer than it would otherwise

old galleon
#

he'll eventually get added to the fp banner so just do your dailies

#

it'll happen with time

#

i wouldn't suggest rolling charlie's banner for zhang jiao specifically; go for charlie too in that case

#

man this summer's gonna be something

#

anni gives us arc, then we get proto merlin, s skadi, and s ibuki

#

the second of three consecutive hell summers

copper steppe
#

s ibuki is s musashi on crack right

summer hornet
#

even more damage, plus support DPS functionality

old galleon
#

i have absolutely no desire to roll for s ibuki, as good as she is

#

which is weird, since i do like her design and she's a great unit

#

i just don't feel any real need to get her

#

i think her neatest application is as a plugsuit cd reducer for arc

summer hornet
#

so are you doing arc, proto merlin, or summer skadi?

old galleon
#

s skadi is definitely the most important for me overall, but if i have enough resources i'll go for arc and s skadi

#

proto merlin is nice but i can do without

#

with collab servant bonuses in mahoyo collab, i'm kinda coping we'll see an arc rate up for that event

#

it's next year that's gonna be really hellish for me

rigid pilot
#

Same

#

I only really want Summer Skadi this year

#

I love Arc but meh

old galleon
#

start of the year, we get kuku
summer, we get all of aesc/s morgan, s castoria, the knights, and s chloe
tez is somewhere in that mix too

copper steppe
#

arc won’t be my priority either but maybe i’ll try to get her

summer hornet
#

I've currently got 1100 SQ and then some

#

I'm gonna spend on Arc just so it'll stop whispering to me in my sleep lmao

that really is a pokemon character

slow raft
#

for blade, bronya, tingyun, if i am already using both lynx and fu xuan in another team, whats the next best sustain?
im thinking gallagher, but i only have that guy at e4

glossy latch
#

Gallagher at E4 is good enough

#

Also Lynx and Fu Xuan?

#

Mono-quantum?

slow raft
#

i have sparkle and i really like the gambling gremlin

#

so i wanted to try it despite no silverwolf

glossy latch
#

Ah

#

Tbh even then I'd use Xueyi over Lynx

#

Fu Xuan really doesnt need a second sustain

slow raft
#

only other quantum option i have is seele, i fear

runic ether
#

the beautiful thing about the team is that qq is a nuclear bomb

slow raft
#

yeah thats why i am still building it

runic ether
#

sparkle fu xuan qq

#

and then pick your choice of buffer

#

could be asta, yukong, hanya

#

could do bronya

#

for extra nuclear qq

#

though i dont recommend this since iirc you need some absurd speed rolls on bronya and sparkle to constantly bring up qq

slow raft
#

:icant:

runic ether
#

lol

#

asta eidolon level?

slow raft
#

4

runic ether
#

thats probably her best overall

#

it lets asta be competitive with the 5 star harmony characters

slow raft
runic ether
#

before e4, shes still great

#

but at e4?

#

she has potential to be better than the others

#

she still loses out to hanya and yukong in some cases

#

and tingyun is just absurd

#

actually hmmmm

#

tingyun may be your best bet for the team

slow raft
#

btw, i finally read through gallaghers kit and bro is so funny
when i equip perfect timing he has more than 100% effect res without any relics
and since he scales of basically nothing other than break effect, i assume you just get the 150 of that and then pump as much as you can in speed, then hp and def

runic ether
#

yeah gallagher is actually kinda busted lol

slow raft
#

i do like the design space he occupies

#

an offensive healer is always cool

runic ether
#

yeah

#

at e0 hes comparable to luocha

#

at e2 hes arguably better

#

the only abundance character better is huohuo bc she has atk buff and energy regen buffs

#

i believe e6 gallagher is just outright a dps healer

#

one of the most broken support e6

slow raft
#

i was comparing him to my only 5 star healer (bailu) and its looking real unfavourable starting e2

runic ether
#

and this game does hand out eidolons

i also wouldnt

You basically only pick her against quantum enemies and even then Id only pick her if I had Ruan Mei

oh need to continue story

runic ether

if gallagher or guinfaifen are available id pick them

oh right, this misha character is also availble

Its Hanya, Misha, Gallagher, Xueyi, Luka, Lynx, Yukong, Guinaifen

Probably not

#

Misha is not very good

runic ether

#

he kinda is lmao

misha is not insane

but he has a niche

a particular niche sure but this at least means hes bis for some team strats

oh i knew it reminded me of something

lol

old galleon
#

making my way through western mythos ex, pretty happy with this clear

#

since end of turn skill seal is everywhere in this fight, rosetta's there to stop that

#

the only other somewhat tricky thing is that there's a requirement to reach 500m damage in one hit, outside of af

#

i tried this fight out with mariel es for the memes, and while the fight is easy enough to do with her, i couldn't get the 500m condition

#

so i had to switch to ol' reliable

old galleon
#

this one was really fucking free

#

turns out whenever they don't shaft thunder, it's pretty good

#

velette carries most of the damage until the last turn; in the af you do beforehand, you set lunatic on miyu, then on the last turn, miyu nukes the rest

#

so that's western mythos ex 1-3 done

#

got two more to do, but those are gonna be a lot harder

so i'll do them later
