probs ruan mei cus ruan mei is built different
or ig robin
tho my account wont have robin
torn harbor
Jade just having +150% crit damage is kinda absurd
runic ether
its super unncessary
they could have removed that or the speed and she'd still be strong
im expecting nerfs tbh
and as for sam im unsure
my gut feeling is that sam is just sadly competing in a space that is dominated by jingliu and will feel extremely redundant for accounts
torn harbor
Someone from another server hopes everyone in the beta is too preoccupied by Sam/firefly to notice how broken jade is
runic ether
lol
yeah
if jade makes it with her current kit in its entirey
*entirety
she becomes a near must pull i feel
the only sad part:
her light cone still wont give qingque a real 5 star option
torn harbor
She becomes the strongest pf character ever
runic ether
qq remains lc-less its crazy
torn harbor
her light cone *still* wont give qingque a real 5 star option
It's cause qingque is a destruction character disguised as an erudition one
runic ether
eventually we will get the bis option
torn harbor
I'm still questioning why qingque is erudition lol
runic ether
likely a change from the hsr beta
or early betas at least
like before they went public with them
it was entirely to her benefit though
but it did hurt her in lc options

Simply blame your lack of zhongli

you're dying with a character with self heal with the best shielder in the game?

And can't you use another shielder other than zhong if you're struggling

Regardless i 36 it anyways, I'll worry about it in the reset

did u read the post you posted where they said "im gonna keep checking since she's supposed to have more animations"
runic ether
firefly is def cool but i dont ever need another dps on my account like sam. jade seems like the most busted pf unit of all time and i hope the firefly hype means she flies under the radar a bit
like 120% cdmg is crazy
torn harbor
like 120% cdmg is crazy
Can't believe it used to 150% lmao
torn harbor
its 68% crit value
Nah it's 16% crit rate. And then the stacking for damage increase and crit damage
I made the same mistake when I first read it too
runic ether
16% crit rate
torn harbor
Typos meant 16%
runic ether
for every 20% cdmg that exceeds 120%, fua increase by 16% stacking up to 4 times
battle start or whenever you use basic you get fua and ult ignoring 16% of the target's def for 2 turns
runic ether
||https://vxtwitter.com/dimbreath/status/1787702282118644212?s=46||
ah interesting so she has 2 different fua
animations at least
also the new herta shop erudition cone is kinda crazy
12% atk up, additional 8% stacking up to 5 times per enemy hit with an atk, and if 3 or more enemies are hit, 16% speed up for a turn
honestly better than her lc for pure fiction
torn harbor
Right misremembered what it did
runic ether
52% atk up and the speed up basically permanently for all erudition characters

i assume shes american since i dont really know anything else

3 post up, aeri......
I was simply reposting for our short term memory loss friends
runic ether
yesnt
at c0, faruzan is a decent anemo support for an anemo dps character like c6 lynette, heizou, or xiao
but she has insane energy requirements
upwards of 300% with double anemo and 280% with triple anemo
she obviously works as a solo anemo viridescent venerer set holder for non anemo dps teams but her er reqs are absurd then at up to 400% er in some special teams
slow raft
yeah, obviously
runic ether
at c6 shes one of the best supports in the entire game for anemo and herself is one of the best anemo dps
from experience
she was super good to me early genshin
back then we didnt have a free lynette
so i had sucrose for anemo and anemo traveler
but i needed geo and dendro traveler
and sometimes u do need 2 anemo characters
so faruzan was fantastic
nowdays with lynette, if you get sucrose or heizou its worth considering her if you want to run dps heizou but past that lynette + sucrose/heizou is more than enough for anemo needs
slow raft
i see
runic ether
she falls off more if you end up getting jean
but i would use her over sayu
if you end up c6ing faruzan shes genuinely great so its worth considering investing into her if you find the anemo dps playstyle fun
copper steppe
boys jing liu rolls were a failure
runic ether
which generally involves you running a character that has a lot of displacement and aoe
copper steppe
its joever
mortal iron
I despise faruzan kit design with a passion coz she's not worth using until c6
runic ether
I despise faruzan kit design with a passion coz she's not worth using until c6
heavy disagree
copper steppe
i got like 2 servals
runic ether
faruzan has big er needs but shes at least not like sara
slow raft
yeah the only char i am close to c6 on is freminet
runic ether
and she is miles ahead of characters like yun jin
mortal iron
I despise sara aswell
I despise character that are a pain to build until a certain con, especially if it's a c6
runic ether
i dont disagree that faruzan could have come with better quality of life in her base c0 kit but thatd have been a kit better than 99% of other characters in the game period
mortal iron
If her ER were way down or atleast...not at c6
runic ether
also for her use pre c6, 400% er is only if she is solo and needs to burst every single rotation
you are looking at an average of 300%
-40% from fav bow she can use
mortal iron
Still, 300% is more than an average raiden build
runic ether
so 260% er
mortal iron
That ER is still insane requirement
runic ether
she is also a character that doesnt care about other stats unless she is a dps
so hyperfocusing er
is perfectly viable for her
260% is super doable with level 90 fav bow and an er sands with er subs and if you can fit a 2nd fav weapon, her er drops even farther
mortal iron
Hmmm easier said than done artifacts are a pain, never had even a set go past like 220% ER
runic ether
like i get it. it can be annoying
but i played her extensively for my 1st 5 months of genshin at c0
shes more than fine
mortal iron
Just to me, i dont have a reason to use faruzan other than other supports until her c6
Like theyre considerably easier to build
I dunno, i just hate QoL locked behind way later cons
runic ether
sure but shes way far from unusable
if we are talking about characters that arent real without their c6 in genshin
there are very very few
but the ones that actually suck until c6?
dori
candace
mortal iron
She's not unusable i agree
I just think shes not worth using coz building her pre c6 is a chore
runic ether
and i disagree if you dont have alternatives
and shes better than some too like sayu since sayu can be very awkward to run
mortal iron
I guess yeah roster dependency also factors into it
runic ether
also the general value of an anemo character
would rather have faruzan in my account over razor, dori, candace, xinyan, yanfei, yun jin, gorou, freminet
viridescent is such an insane value artifact set that getting it is more valuable than having a good chunk of characters
mortal iron
I mean yeah comparing her to them is one thing
But im mostly talking about how they made her have such high requirements for herself and locking behind smth that makes her considerably easier behind a c6
I wouldn't despise the design if it was like a c1 or smth
C6 is so far down the line it annoys me
runic ether
they unfortunately learned their lesson with early 4 stars
summer hornet
ETA next Genshin patch?
mortal iron
I just feel like i would rather use sucrose as a VV 4*
summer hornet
Gotcha
runic ether
I just feel like i would rather use sucrose as a VV 4*
well thats easy because sucrose is likely the 4th or 5th best character in the entire game
mortal iron
Yeah as she exist, she's less painful to build coz she doesnt need 400% ER
Or like 300%
mortal iron
Exactly, sucrose is great that way
runic ether
which might be about as hard to get
mortal iron
I mean unlike ER, EM also can be on main stat for circlets and goblets
runic ether
yeah but the numbers are way lower
mortal iron
Er is just on the sands so you gotta pray for subs mostly
runic ether
same with em
3x em mainstat is 561
if thats all you have on sucrose she is significantly weaker than she would at 1k
almost 50% less effective
mortal iron
Plus sac frags thats like 221
runic ether
so you are praying on having sac frags
and em subs from your feather and sands
plus em has a significantly lower drop rate on artifacts compared to other stats
not as rare as elemental goblets but almost
your investment into either is not gonna be easier
its going to be different
sucrose is worth of course cus shes broken
faruzan... is too
you either have a solid vv user and if you end up getting her c6, you have both a great anemo dps and the best anemo support in the game
mortal iron
But getting to a c6 faruzan is probably harder than get a single sac frags
runic ether
potentially
it depends entirely as i told guy, if you end up finding anemo dps characters interesting
mortal iron
Ive been playing for like 3 years but i still have not gotten a character past 270% ER and thats raiden
Im mostly salty because i have wanderer, i wanna use faruzan, but she feels a pain to use and i dont have enough ER
runic ether
shes still good without her c6 for him
mortal iron
It feels not fun to use tho
runic ether
much better than for xiao because xiao also has er needs
mortal iron
I feel like i have to accomodate her
runic ether
are you doing 2pc/2pc er?
mortal iron
Yes
runic ether
2pc emblem 2pc exile + fav bow will often get you all the way there for wanderer teams
where her er needs are significantly less than her as solo
for wanderer if she can do 2 pressurized collapses (she can) her er needs drop to 220% at the highest
3x anemo has her at 180% or so
mortal iron
Yeah not running 3x anemo
mortal iron
Yes
runic ether
zhongli on fav?
mortal iron
Yeah
runic ether
totm?
mortal iron
Yes
runic ether
bennett noblesse?
mortal iron
Yes
runic ether
her er needs should be 200%
206% specifically
fixed actually
i was right on the dot at 200
since no one else in this team needs a lot of er really (i didnt update bennett)
heres how it looks fully optimized
193% if you can finish a rot with wanderer particles fed to faruzan
an average 200% er on bennett
0 real er needs bc zhongli burst is a waste of time
and 0 real er needs on wanderer bc his burst isnt worth using until c2
mortal iron
Yeah i could do that, but that doesnt really address my main issue of feeling that her c6 feels like a huge solve for her
runic ether
ill give it to you that xiao is worse off for sure
c6 does a lot yes but shes not bad to use
also btw this is on 15s rotations
if you extend your rotation time, you have way more chance to give her way more er
mortal iron
if you extend your rotation time, you have way more chance to give her way more ...
That goes back to feeling accommodating her than feeling good to play
runic ether
at 18s, she goes to 182% after wanderer feeds her particles at the end of his
runic ether
That goes back to feeling accommodating her than feeling good to play
but you need to do something similar for every character
unless its fischl or zhongli who can turn their brain off and click their e whenever they want
like its fine to not enjoy the anemo carry playstyle bc pre-c6, faruzan can feel unforgiving or clunky but she absolutely functions and her functions are not hard to get working well on a team
this was one of my earliest abyss teams when i started genshin
even then i never needed 300% er on faruzan
also i def played it safe with just 1 portion of particles fed and 1 fav trigger per rotation
at 18seconds you should be able to get at least 2 fav triggers per rot
could easily be 2 and 2
and feeding 2 and 2

I could roll on the LC to have something for Ratio

since s1 is the way topaz can keep up the debuffs for ratio
otherwise you need silver wolf or pela

I think Clara's mark counts as a debuff doesnt it?
runic ether
nope

Its criminal that there's no good hunt 4* lightcond

runic ether
dps have really mid f2p options on light cones
glossy latch
Or Jade if she's good for FuA
runic ether
jade is good for fua
well shes just good in general
shes a support dps
really good at both
glossy latch
So like Topaz?
runic ether
honestly hoping firefly takes all the attention in the 2.3 patch cus jade is fucking broken
no
better
like significantly better
well
in aoe
in single target shes pretty okay but works mostly as a support
in aoe she does both insanely well
having free 120% cdmg in her kit boosts her dps like crazy
giving an ally 30 speed is also crazy
her own damage is also crazy
if she drops how she is in current beta shes automatically the best pf character
and bis support for a ton of teams
glossy latch
Huh
God i wish I could just get Xueyi eidolons she's a character i really wanna build eventually
runic ether
new game mode has xueyi as a reward
in 2.3
so theres 1
lol
i was talking about this with some tcers on another server for hsr though how xueyi is just kind of a sad case
where even with her c6, if you dont fight quantum weak enemies, her dps completely disappears
she really is tied to the hip with silver wolf
xueyi can def clear but its still awkward
glossy latch
Thatd give me E1 instead
Is Xueyi better in mono quantum than Seele?
Thatd be kinda wild but
glossy latch
Damn
runic ether
qq is only getting stronger with jade
runic ether
yep
glossy latch
Damn
runic ether
and has to be quantum weak from the get-go
because without wolf, if you run into a non-quantum weak enemy her dps disappears
glossy latch
But hey Ruan Mei at least turned out to be a good pull
glossy latch
I wonder if you do double support for Sam
glossy latch
Like RM, Harmony TB, Sam and ... a sustain I guess?
runic ether
kinda self-sufficient
glossy latch
Could do gallagher
runic ether
yes
id do a shield
sam has healing built in
shields will keep the team alive better
runic ether
fu xuan is good
wait thats crazy we have exactly 3 shielders huh
and march isnt great everywhere
my concern with sam
dropping your own hp that hard will be prone to get one shot
even through dmg reduction from fu xuan
runic ether
mhm
but i worry about the dps not scaling enough to 1 rot and can end up getting wrecked since destruction has a higher targeting
mystic python
Heals out of turn are also nice for Firefly like Gallagher/Luocha
runic ether
i guess but i think it could still be a bit risky
mystic python
Might be rough for Gallagher at least ye, I'm not too familiar with his numbers
But Gallagher will help set up breaks as well
summer hornet
id do a shield
So aventurine would be a good fit, then
mystic python
o yea I forgot but shielders can also be iffy with Firefly since she takes so many turns
summer hornet
Since he can refresh his shield fairly regularly
mystic python
Super speed + the action forward makes the turn count on shields tick down fast
Ye Aventurine should be ok since he can shield out of turn
mystic python
But like March/Gepard might suffer
runic ether
firefly is somewhat awkward for that
mystic python
Or ig you just have to think ahead when using Gepard ult
summer hornet
Minimal 2.2 spoilers from the first Trailblazer scene of the patch ||lol, lmao even||
||blade driving with no hands is so funny||
mystic python
her own healing sorry + the shields
Ye only thing extra you need from your sustains is enough of a HP buffer during the troughs in her HP to not die
runic ether
ye
i just worry that sam will have more than a few moments where you will just explode
and it wont feel good
mystic python
With a not good sustain yea
Altho they might tone it down through beta as well, Jingliu's drain went from 10% everyone's HP down to 6% and then 4%
torn harbor
without s1, that team actually doesnt work iirc
It works just not as well
(Also it's E1 or S1 either or)
torn harbor
S1 is a higher overall damage increase due to buffing topaz more
torn harbor
However E1 is more future proof if they ever release a 4 star hunt lightcone that debuffs lol
runic ether
actually shit do u need e1s1 for clara ratio topaz?
hmmmmm
gotta check the flow of it
tossing in aventurine of course

Can I say
Holy hell Robin is easy to build
You have like 1 whole stat you need to minmax and one stat you need a small amount of substats on and everything else is a bonus

How did it hit crit rate this hard while building the character who literally has a constant 100% crit rate

theoretically, if i were in the market to pull more, would it be wiser to pull on the weapon banner or try to go for c1
runic ether
c1
unless your only weapon option is white tassel
even then its a bennett away from being good enough
if pulling more and spending to do so, id probably get the battlepass and get the deathmatch polearm from it and then get c1 over going for the weapon.
slow raft
oh, im not spending any money on this
runic ether
if just spending whatever else u can get then go c1 still
its safer to pull on characters
slow raft
got it
runic ether
this weapom banner isnt bad but its not ideal
if there were more favonious weapons then id say sure go for the weapon
but just fav bow which you are given for free is not enough imo
glossy latch
Yeah no if you don't have a lot saved up go for c1
And even if you do probably go for c1
runic ether
the other 5 star weapon is good too
glossy latch
Do not repeat my mistakes
runic ether
but
yeah lol
ovven went to like at least
220 pulls?
hes set on bows for life in genshin
but at what cost
glossy latch
Something around that ye lmao
Now I'm just trying to scrounge something together for alhaithan
And hoping my bad luck is made up for
slow raft
ill guess well be on that refinement level 1 white tassel for a while
glossy latch
Do any sustain apply debuffs?
long tree
Just explore liyue guy
runic ether
liyue chests have white tassels
should be able to hit r5 on it
its an insanely strong weapon on arle for being a 3 star
this puts polearms as the best weapon group baby
black tassel viable, white tassel viable
long tree
Counter point, pull for the weapon so you dont have to use the piss blade

what do i run
i can't run acerjon cause not e2
jingliu??
idk
or just run acheron with only one nibulity
yk what
i will run archer on wirj 1 nibulity

Do any sustain apply debuffs?

||I just assumed he wasn't playable because of npc hell||

every character used in these fights (except gariyu, funny enough) is stupid as fuck
the idea is simple
iphi to set risktaker on aldo, thille to spam promised land for power buff and giving extra hits, benedict for slash res down and slash break, and aldo smash
also iphi switches out to radias to sustain the party

how do i get statue to level 50?

Theyre niche but they seem to be good in that niche
runic ether

Got Xueyi E1
I think Ill stop rolling now and save for Sam
And maybe get Jade after Sam
slow raft
I think Ill stop rolling now and save for Sam

Fair
Im just not sure I need Topaz right now and not sure how many rolls that will leave me for Sam

I'm doing the uh
fuck it we ball approach to rolling
and I will reap what I sow within due time
idle grove
I will really need it
going straight from rolling for robin to getting Sam to saving again

Good luck!

My brother did c6 arle

Realistically if I stop here I basically have Sam guaranteed already and can just focus on getting as much for Jade as possible
... except I kinda dont care for Jade tbh?

Does decent dmg superbreak is cool but u need to be able to break to begin with
On MOC 11 I did like 100k superbreak dmg
runic ether
i did a throwaway pull to build a bit of pity and hit c1 arle and c6 xiangling
i should still have enough pulls for clorinde which is insane
slow raft
exactly 74 pulls of pity in hsr
i think i save for the 10 roll still sicne i want more copies of xueyi

Do be warned that Xueyi is ... difficult to build

Gets easier with a Ruan Mei or harmony trailblazer in team due the passives buffs u get u get to allocate some breakeffect into critstats instead
glossy latch
Oh yeah I guess Xueyi + RM + two quantums is like the optimal team

I don't regret skipping Ruan Mei at the time she was dropped but like
Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez

whats the set for topaz agains? pioneer diver?

Ashblazing Grand Duke or Pioneer Diver
Ashblazing is easier though and lets you be more SP-positive

apparently helena's getting a buff with tonight's update to change her stellar skill and burst boost passive

There are no good Trans-Am Raiser gifs in tenor besides the raiser sword and giant cannon attack

How do you guys feel about this lightcone knowing what we know?
summer hornet
...how old IS Gallagher?
Just got up to the return to ||Child's Dream||
||very upset that Argenti's English lines seem to be bugged||
||firefly is so much fun to have as part of the crew though, she flips back and forth between being more March than March and very visibly restraining international terrorist tendencies||
runic ether
im glad that ||argenti's theme returned. that ones a banger||
summer hornet
||Argenti as a whole is a great vibe to shake up the status quo every now and then||

...how old IS Gallagher?
||the answer is: how old is Penacony?||
Like that's legitimately the answer
summer hornet
Lmao that makes sense
Wild that ||the creator of SoulGlad is still alive||
||wonder if he's just an old man strapped to IVs in a coma like the war vet Robin and Sunday met||
||Otherwise Penacony has only existed for a hundred years at most||

i already saw that lc art and had my theories which were all confirmed
I meant more so like
||Imagine how pompom feels knowing all 3 are dead||
runic ether
||i dont imagine pom-pom cares. they have likely witnessed the death of many many many many nameless before them||
torn harbor
I wouldn't say he doesn't care
Maybe used to it
But not caring is a strong statement
Also more on pompom
||Since he is the conductor of the train
This would mean the assist in the boss fight has pompom ram the train at the boss
He is the most useful mascot||
torn harbor
||i dont imagine pom-pom cares. they have likely witnessed the death of many man...

||The hands of the compass keep turning until they point to the moment of dreams.
The Asdana system, overflowing with memoria, glows with a soft light outside the train's windows. The frontier prison within is currently engulfed in the fires of war.
"Hey guys, what do you suppose the world within the dream would look like?? I must meticulously map it out!"
The girl, packing away her surveying tools, gazes at the new world within reach, filled with anticipation.
"That place is a mess. Don't you run off once we get there. I won't have you two getting kidnapped again..."
The man in cowboy attire grumbles as he cleans his weapon, then walks over to the sofa with a drink, shaking his head in resignation.
"The Land of the Dreams promises infinite possibilities. We'll surely make our mark... Hey, conductor, if we fall in love with that place and never return, would you miss us?"
The Nameless dressed like a gentleman winks at Pom-Pom, smiling.
"'You can't joke at the conductor's expense like this!' Is that what you want to say, conductor?" The girl's mischievous grin spreads across her face.
"You guys are! So! Mean!"
Bubbles drift up and down in the glass as the Express fills up with joyful laughter.
...
The youthful silhouettes of these Nameless get gradually swallowed by memoria.
"Have a... safe... trip...please..."
When the conductor turns their head, the Express is already empty.
The conductor stand frozen, this scene hauntingly familiar, as if lived through countless times before||

I was able to complete the enitre thing in 2 hours

early leaks but 2.4 might be screwllum and jiaoqiu

so I should probably make a second team now my first one is adequate enough, who would y'all recommend using to build
runic ether
1st team is acheron welt aventurine and pela?
idle grove
yems
runic ether
blade ratio clara and qq are all worth building around
idle grove
runic ether
they can all use tingyun to different effects but shes great too
and then gallagher is a fantastic sustain
last slot can be hanya or asta
hanya great overall, asta will be good for when you start building a team(s) for pure fiction
for pure fiction: acheron will work often as will aventurine and herta and himeko do wonders there
