Welcome back, "Suddenly, one day"
Anyways, this seems like a decent id, but if its really hood depends on the number on his passive and skill 2
And of course his general skill numbers, if his s1 is w ryoshu stlye, i will never use this unit
honest pawn
I'm sure his numbers will be good and bleed deserves support but man that's rough
scheduled update notes also out

Holiday synergy? You shouldnt have.
No seriously, dont do that
This one looks way more rough than yi sang, but j expected as much
honest pawn
we'll be getting the standard 300 lunacy on the 16th but I've decided I'm going to save until they drop a banger ryoshu ID or a red mist ID

Holiday synergy? You shouldnt have.
I hope the S2's on these goobers are good

opus definitely shouldn't have temptation chain for this but it didn't end up mattering
slow raft
In terms of negative effects that you can use for his conditionals theres like
Obviously the ones already mentioned in the id
bleed, burn, tremor, rupture, sinking
But we have a few other ones that still count as negative effects
defense level down, offense level down, attack power down, defense power down, damage down, bind, plus coin power drop, fragile, paralyze, the various sin and type fragilities, hp healing down, red plum blossom, dark flame, spark discharge, nails, gaze, curse, maggots, B.M., echoes of the manor, weakness analyzed, pink ribbons, talisman, vengeance mark, all of the various declared duels.
The questiok is obviously which ones you want to use and for that youd need them to both be beneficial to bleed and easy to apply/long lasting
Rupture, sinking, echoes of the manor, dimensional rift, pink ribblns, talisman and dark flame and spark discharge and hp healing down are all out from the start methinks
Maggots are good for bleed and easy enough to conisistnetly apply and kurkumo gregor is a good bleed unit that also applies debuffs, so thats a no brainer
Curse is on basically exactly faust, who does is a very debuff oriented sinner anyways, so youd either take grip or regret from her
I doubt there will be an infinite ceiling on the bleed count so that should be enough for debuff application the question is who will take the other 3 slots

Bottom line is that theoretically using lunacy to pull instead of refilling your enkephalin is theoretically leds efficient

robin is average overall and boothill is another dps which its unlikely everyone needs

Robin is only average if you already have RM tbh
runic ether
i didnt get the chance to use jingliu this moc reset simply bc i have too many dps
long tree
I also have to turn down jade
runic ether
Robin is only average if you already have RM tbh
thats fair tbh
ruan mei is so absurdly powerful that it makes robin, a good support, look worse
glossy latch
Like if you have RM Robin is just your RM for the second team (and only on par if youre doing FuAs)
If you dont have RM Robin is one of the best AoE supports you can get
Personally skipping Boothill is tough because I kinda love his design

yeah should be better than asta still

Hence why I hope 2.4 doesnt have Screwllum so I can get Boothill and Sam

I should get Jade since I struggle with 12* PF but I also have negative interest in her character

Out of characters we know were getting I think Firefly has the most interesting design because usually female rider designs dont look like that and Im a sucker for Boothill

its just a shame aventurine doesnt has a pet otherwise it could have been pet tribal with topaz jade and aven
glossy latch
Robin is w/e, Jade is fine
I like Screwllums design well enough (though in his case the voice/character is whats strongest)
... who else are we getting

We can't let aventurine have a pet because he can't be allowed to get a W for himself, only the IPC

she was easily the one character most everyone who had gone into hsr wanted to grab

itd have done it way more for me if she had a more aged look
some wrinkles under her eyes? instant pull for me
that or if she was a canonical smoker

Hmm
She does have smoker vibes
But also given how important her voice is I doubt she would

Theyre usually ignored for good reason

Honestly silver wolf is also terrifying, like what do you mean she hacked herself into another reality and can alter the fabric of the universe at a whim

i mean the genius society probably gain something by becoming nous lackey
As far as we know they gain a question
Also its not really accurate to say that they become Nous lackey
Nous has no need for them
They merely become the only people worthy of Nous' glance
copper steppe
maybe nous goal is 42

Aeons very rarely actually care about the people who path stride, and a glance isn't itself an agreement, just acknowledgement that you are making decent progress on the path

Hm? No no, they almost all have physical forms

thats how lan fires arrows that destroy planets more or less
glossy latch
And Qlipoth is pretty much always manifested, building away at his wall
Theres one were not sure on and one that doesnt have a physical form
HooH doesnt
runic ether
qlipoth is doing what celestia (might) be doing in genshin more or less but on a much grander scale

HooH has ascended even further than the regular Aeon and just became part of the universe
Mythus is unclear because no one has ever seen Mythus

Honestly silver wolf is also terrifying, like what do you *mean* she hacked hers...
That’s kinda what SW’s entire planet does lol
She’s just the best at it
runic ether
yea we know aether editing isnt exclusive to her bc there was a famous galaxy ranger who was from punklorde
thats the guy who had the punklorde mentality curio that herta obtained
we also know that the ipc started experimenting on aether editing but are not at all good at it
runic ether
yea aether wars are all from aether editing tech but its really rudimentary compared to silver wolf
tho tbf she herself was already far ahead of everyone else on punklorde
summer hornet
So funny that she was banned from the venue and had to hack her way into the tournament lol
And still dreams about how bad she lost to us
glossy latch
Aether editing doesn't make much sense tbh
runic ether
its reality warping more or less
but we havent seen the full-extent of it
but if silver wolf is confident enough to infiltrate the ipc's tight security by herself
or break blade and kafka out of prison from the luofu
glossy latch
It is, but it also clearly has to be pretty lowlevel
glossy latch
But they don't want to really explain the limits because I'm not sure there's a way to make that consistent
runic ether
though its not like star rail has been a stranger to using a specific mechanic/person as a deus ex
ie: acheron in penacony so far
if they want to, they can go "yeah with aether editing she can kinda do whatever" and then use wolf as the stellaron hunter's deus ex whenever they need something done that might feel impossibe
*impossible
not that i think they will definitely do so
but its not out of the question
leave it vague for now
so that when you need to use it later, you can write that as the ceiling
summer hornet
I mean it’s just superhacking, no?
runic ether
its been described as hacking reality
and it hasnt really shown a limit yet
the only reason silver wolf "lost" against screwllum and herta is because they just outright didnt want to play her game
same for aetherium wars
she preferred a fair fight over cheating but she could win at any time
she was able to transport enemies into black holes super casually
wolf also broke through the luofu's lockdown without any issues
kafka and blade (if you decline helping kafka) get saved by wolf
from what we understand so far, ||firefly is hooked into the dream of penacony through silver wolf||
||either she put her directly into a room in the hotel or stole a dreampool for firefly||
basically
we have no real idea at the upper limit of aether editing yet
ovven (and i do too tbh) guess that the limit has to be reasonable
summer hornet
She (as in ||Firefly||) still ||had to “die” to escape though, no? Which was her second death||
runic ether
||its unclear at what the whole deal with that death was since firefly may have had to brute force it from within the dream. but yeah the script said she had to die. so even if wolf could have avoided it, it wouldnt work bc of the script from elio||
summer hornet
Gotcha, that’s what I was wondering
runic ether
again basically we dont have any idea what aether editing's limits are
summer hornet
Have you seen the post-2.2 theory that ||Sunday will become a Stellaron Hunter, btw? Sounded like leakers trying to pass off future plot points, but I did find a Reddit post that talked about a document in Penacony where Elio read off Sunday’s life story to him||
runic ether
yeah i did see it
i think itd be interesting
||even tho i do think hes most likely dead/dying, him joining the stellaron hunters with that letter makes sense||

this is a bunch of unsourced news
theres absolutely zero substance to these claims besides unsourced leaks
the only one that has any substance is the mounting system

Tho I don't know wether Ruan me is breakeffect scales with firefly 50% increase I doubt it
Implanting fireweakness is nice tho
Make Gallagher help breaking stuff much easier

god misty
you are really convincing about not getting firefly

v2 of 2.3 dropped and she got no buffs

runic ether
im giving good word of warning on people spending their jades on characters that may be completely dead in some accounts
especially cus its meant to encourage ppl to spend money if they dont get it or if they get the character and want full potential
runic ether
Tho I don't know wether Ruan me is breakeffect scales with firefly 50% increase ...
p sure it do
runic ether
will you pull s1?
runic ether
or do you have ratio's lc
dull bridge
so no tjan
runic ether
i know because i got topaz without her s1 and i played her as a hypercarry
she was fine but worse than jingliu and qq
then i got ratio
she felt better but wasnt insane insane
i got aventurine and the team was fun
but it had a clear weakness (topaz)
i got her s1, and now the team feels insane
dull bridge
ok ok
hmmm
mabye I can do like a 10 pull see if I get topaz
if i do
no
im not going to
i'll just work in who I have
I can save for other characters
runic ether
you already have the dps characters
supports and sustains should be what you pull if anything
versed pawn
p sure it do
Can't tell for sure I know In SU the break efficency buff from the nihility blessing doesn't stack with Ruan meist at least
runic ether
i believe what has been tested so far it does work
if it doesnt then firefly is even worse than expected and should get more buffs in v3 of the beta
dull bridge
supports and sustains should be what you pull if anything
Which sustains and supports in particular
like
Fu Xuan?
Loucha?
runic ether
ruan mei first and foremost
dull bridge
Sparkle?
dull bridge
ok
runic ether
fu xuan is just as broken as aventurine
between fu xuan and aven, you shouldnt ever need another sustainer
maybe huohuo
dull bridge
I wish I could use qq :(
dull bridge
dosent she need e4 tho
runic ether
qq is still very strong pre-e4
dull bridge
to be really good?
runic ether
her e4 just skyrockets her to a 5 star dps level
dull bridge
could she be a good team instead of jingliu
runic ether
and her e6 puts her at top of the game alongside jingliu acheron and dhil
dull bridge
for a monoquantum?
glossy latch
v2 of 2.3 dropped and she got no buffs
Fwiw
dull bridge
no
glossy latch
That always is the case
glossy latch
V3 and V4 is when they usually make big changes
runic ether
That always is the case
has it? i think im getting mixed up with genshin where they do changes in all versions more or less
glossy latch
Historically yes
V2 usually just does small wording changes
If she doesnt get a buff in V3 thats a problem though
dull bridge
also sorry to ask this unrelated thing but does anyone know why this is stuck here?
it just will not proceed

runic ether
nah i remember he was playing back during jingliu

I hope they do buff Firefly, but shell probably be fine
dull bridge
Cause I spent all my time during school playing the game :(
glossy latch
The problematic part is that she is hard-forced into one team exactly
dull bridge
which in hindsight was a stupid idea
glossy latch
Yeah
runic ether
if firefly was a 4 star, sure
glossy latch
I do wonder how theyll buff her
runic ether
be niche in exactly one team
glossy latch
If they do
dull bridge
How would they change her
runic ether
i hope her buffs are to her base kit
dull bridge
though
runic ether
not to her eidolons
dull bridge
because like
runic ether
its what i fear will be their solution
glossy latch
Some people suggest giving her built-in superbreak, but having her work with HMC is clearly intended
runic ether
they buff e1 and e2
dull bridge
Some people suggest giving her built-in superbreak, but having her work with HMC...
I dont have a problem with HMC
runic ether
built-in superbreak would be nice
dull bridge
honestly
versed pawn
I mean being completely break reliant makes her niche
dull bridge
its a free character
glossy latch
And I dont see how you can uncouple her from RM given that RM is always going to be BiS
versed pawn
With superbreak the only mechanic that makes break characters into dps
runic ether
how do u uncouple from likely the best general support in the game
yeah boothill is fine without hmc
glossy latch
Way I see it
runic ether
hmc remains a niche option for specific break teams and even a character like bootyhill that cares about it wont be tied so hard to hmc
glossy latch
Best way is to give Firefly native Superbreak and make HMCs superbreak be slightly stronger
That way HMC still has a reason to be picked
But you can run Firefly without HMC
runic ether
i could also see firefly getting the xueyi style treatment where she can break all bars without needing to implant fire weakness
that could be nice
since some cases where there arent multiple fire-weak enemies will also nuke her dps
versed pawn
I think implant is better since it also allows to bring other teammates u coundt bring before to help break the bar
glossy latch
Also questionable leak says Genshin will get ||level 100 characters|| after 5.0
I dont really believe it but
glossy latch
||It could be a way to fix characters without technically buffing them||
runic ether
i am super doubtful
glossy latch
Oh I missed it then
versed pawn
At least for now makes Gallagher so much stronger to run along side her
glossy latch
I am doubtful
But I could see it happen for just that one reason
||Imagine making Dehya for instance actually good outside of a tiny niche||
runic ether
my issue with it is that it wouldnt really buff anyone really because anyone who gets an ascension 7 passive will likely mean they add one for every single character
so like
an arlecchino or neuvillette passive will just make them even stronger
glossy latch
I mean
runic ether
same with haitham
glossy latch
The ascension 7 passives could be not equal
runic ether
and not from getting a passive
just from the raw stats they get
especialy neuv and arle
runic ether
their scalings form having even more hp and more atk would be pushing them beyond what others get
glossy latch
A buff that makes her ult actually super good
runic ether
even if its a total overhauled passive
ah and a character like raiden
who has base energy recharge
ascending and getting even more of it
dull bridge
also is clorinde gonna be dead account friendlyt
runic ether
again it just creates a disparity again
dull bridge
and if my wifi fucking works I wanna play genshin mroe
runic ether

shes an electro on-fielder
unless your account cant spare dendro mc or yaoyao for her
she should be fine
dull bridge
okie dokie!
runic ether
she will want fischl too and an anemo to swirl but should be okay
dull bridge
shes for is it aggirvate or spread?
runic ether
aggravate
runic ether
At least for now makes Gallagher so much stronger to run along side her
yeah but the issues with firefly atm
are kinda just
hard to ignore
runic ether
to start: her dps is nonexistant without a specific team
runic ether
without hmc and ruan mei even with crit her dps just wont keep up
idle grove
i haven't looked at her kit, what's her issue
runic ether
my qq does 2x the amount she was doing without full set up
runic ether
i haven't looked at her kit, what's her issue
shes pigeonholed into exactly one team
without that team, her dps is just bad
and its not like shes poaching niche characters
maybe hmc is niche enough for an account
but ruan mei is a mandatory dps
and gallagher is great sure but without other sustains he may be necessary for other teams too
this also comes with the fact that cc is brutal for this team
gallagher needs his e2 to have a cleanse
and without significant speed, hes going to hurt getting the needed turns to make sure you are cleansed well
basically if you fail to get the damage, the team falls apart entirely
idle grove
is it just like her stats aren't good or does she have abilities reliant on things she doesn't get in her kit naturally
runic ether
a mix of both
relying on break effect is good in theory but its going to be less consistent if you cant break
she implants fire weakness but enemies are coming out with multiple break bars and 2nd phases
if she had superbreak built in to her kit, she would be better
dull bridge
also super break
runic ether
but without having superbreak in her kit like hmc, she needs hmc
if you dont want to run hmc and ruan mei, you have actually no options and her dps disappears
dull bridge
and than she needs RM to get the desired break efficency
runic ether
yeah
cus again if the toughness bar is really big, shes just not going to do damage
basically i find it unacceptable that a 5 star dps, a character that people will spend their in-game currency and real world currency on, is going to perform on average with 4 stars
like shes a better xueyi but thats not good
dull bridge
especially after how fucking hyped she is
runic ether
at least 4 stars are given out often
and the 1.0 4 stars are in the monthly shop
at least when a dps character is released they have multiple teams to be used in
ie: jingliu
you can run her in blade/jingliu dual carry
hyper carry
multiple iterations of it
same with acheron, topaz, ratio
argenti is built for a niche
firefly is getting dropped and shes just
okay
and in theory this is fine? avoid powercreep
but thinking about new accounts
and how it would feel if someone was brand new and wanted to get firefly
they will then be feeling forced to grab ruan mei
and if gallagher isnt on rate up?
tough luck your team actually is less efficient
and she wont even be great in a mode like pure fiction so shes not getting that benefit either like being great in a niche
it feels like they want to bait ppl into pulling her + ruan mei
idle grove
another issue with her is like if she's break reliant she does nothing when the weakness bar is disabled(?) right
runic ether
when the weakness bar is disabled yeah her damage is gone
this is an issue with the hmc no-dps teams ppl are trying out
but those are meme teams
i do expect buffs next week
but gut feeling tells me they will likely buff her eidolons and lc
since ppl are hyped for her they will want ppl to spend money on her
also, the reason this is worse is bc this is one of the only characters hoyo has released that is like this
i cant think of a genshin character so reliant on one specific team comp or a past hsr one thats the same (thats a 5 star at least)
dull bridge

eula?
dull bridge
would you consider nilou/chev in same like idea
or are they more like acheron
where you havea lot of options
runic ether
nilou has multiple teams same with chev
dull bridge
and not that restrictive
runic ether
yeah
acheron has multiple teams too
cus of the options available to all of them
nilou candace yaoyao dendro
nilou furina baizhou dendro
nilou xq yelan nahida
nilou barbara dendro dendro
same with chevy being able to pair into yoimiya, raiden, xiangling, clorinde, arle
runic ether
its fine to be niche but having exactly 2 specific teammates
3 technically
and gallagher will want e2 minimum
itd be one thing where you go oh sure run asta if not ruan mei
or run another sustain
and she performed well still
dull bridge
outside of gold and gear and swarm disaster at max difficulty
is there anything above SD V?
runic ether
no
dull bridge
hm
ok
I dont run douible sustain I just run preservation path
I wanna try elation
I just dont have agood followup team tho
I ran followup acheron with the cats cradle blessing
actually
that was fun
runic ether
thats no big deal if you can clear
versed pawn
Even in Gold n gears double sustain won't save u at high conundrum since most things oneshot
Like I can see aventurine and fu xuan keeping your team alive the most effective there
Aventurine with Clea lucid body and that one preservation blessing that reduces dmg when shielded is nuts
Tons of dmg % reducing effects there
Usually my strategy there is company time and try to oneshot the bosses before they can oneshot me
runic ether
same
its how i cleared the highest difficulty
jingliu/qq nuke them
if they dont? gg onto the next run

I probably cleared condrum 10 with every dice 12 with half of them I think

old galleon
heian-kyo is moderately long, avalon is extremely long, you also still have tunguska prologue and epilogue, and traum is actually pretty fuckin long too
so have fun
on the downside, avalon has some extremely difficult boss fights
on the upside, that makes everything else comparatively a breeze

Tho I guess new players joining won't have a problem to clear early game content with firefly but it probably becomes harder during higher Tb levels since u can't use super break without htb so u need to rush story which is probably counter productive

Same
The first time I did the boss I didn’t know how much damage it’d do and I lost one shield, taking like. 200 damage
But between the shield the battle gives you and the shield Aventurine gives you…..
(Also, it is really something, to spend at least 10-20 minutes on a boss and then watch a streamer have to actively hold back so they don’t kill the boss too quickly)
(5 star eidolons really are BS)

e6 5 stars in particular
they dont balance around them at all
cus the ppl who have a c6 or e6 5 star just arent many
yelan herself is super busted
her c6 for instance
just absolutely shreds any and all opposition
nothing in genshin can survive unless they have a hydro shield that needs to be broken pas
this is the same for most all c6 5 stars in genshin
in hsr its the same

I’m not sure which is more disgusting, the fact that level 90 killed the boss in 16 seconds or that C6 did it in 10
