Elysia is not coming anytime soon
for the most part it doesnt matter because its reruns
I MEAN
Yeah she won't be til Oct 24th for us
the important stuff are always in the first weeks
53 DAYS?
Lots of time to save up crystals
Yes since patches are 8-9 weeks now
I wonder how much pulls ill get
That's like 18k+ crystals bare minimum
Im new
Oh then 16k crystals bare minimum
Ok
Getting duplicates of characters here isnt rlly worth it from what im seeing?
no for gacha valks
aside from whales and nirv players (sometimes)
No, f2p shouldn't aim or go for ranks, f2p also shouldn't go for AOPs 
a ranks yes for the ones u use, get the ranks its free
for others u wanna farm them for dorm levels
Who said i was gonna🥹 also whats AOP’s
Astral ops
Oh
astra op
theyre used with p2 valks
I idnt know they were called aops
Astral ops, it's the new elf, Dreamseeker is given for free at SS and is more than enough 
When SSS 
When Leylah drops probably
Dream sseekeer? S thst the maain chaar of pt2
yes
Yes
I really hope coralie will be a bis support for new elysia
She provides breach for new Ely so she has that going for her 
Breach is elemental resistance reduction
delete qua
That valrahal
Oh it's qua
So none of the above
Both 
istg 
She can't? Can't even Brute force, lost on her own shill on my bracket to trio, genuinely what does she do 
She doesn't do anything special on qua that other valks don't do
afaik fdd doesnt bruteforce in the same sense as vita
but if shes ur strongest valk then go ahead
Yall is red lotus abyss hard
Also losing to trio is just a skill issue
no
drya has s2 vita
Not really, but as a newbie it can be
Ok thnx
Proud of my trio for slaying coralies 
if q mani rl, very easy
if superstring (lvl 81+) rl then its fine and very manageable
Ive been soloing abyss with a solo coralie can u do that in red lotus
yeah idk my explanation is that they were all tanking to not promo
in q mani anything clears
Fdd
that bracket was really slack
as i said in q mani anything clears
It should work in manifold, but idk how long it takes to hit level 81 for the harder abyss ranks
it only starts to be a concern when you reach superstring rl because knowing the boss mechanic, having a proper team and trying more than once is normal
fdd is a good solo valk to top it off. can just 3 stack her with her a rank counterpart and it's such a good starter team
which when you reach youll have a good team for it so dw
Oh @still condor said you cant so i was-
What does her counter part do for fdd
pretty sure they meant superstring rl
Whats that
Yeah I did, it's level 81 abyss
thats one of the abyss ranks than youll unlock when you reach lvl 81+
Oh theres different abyss for different lvl groups i see
aka one of the difficulties in end game
provides a bunch of total dmg multiplier buffs and activates part of this buff.
Yall is it alr to lvl up hov and A rank coralie i need it for a quest, and i dont wanna waste mats so i wanna use my mats wisely? Idk
for q mani it is based on your level yes
for superstring (that will replace q mani when you level up) its based on a trophies and rank system between you and a random selection of people
do note the second bullet point. this i why wou'd probably want to put a rank helia (vbs) as well into the team
level a rank coralie
I need 1 more
whats the quest btw?
Who else can i use in the team?
and whats the level req?
valkyrie boltstorm
a rank helia, like i said
40
if you got someone else with astral ring, they work too. you preferably want 3 rite of oblivion valks for fdd's full potential
hmm i guess as long as you dont go beyond lv 50 its fine
for the characters that youll bench later
I on,y have 2 characters with those and it both coralie
bonono is right, we should move this to #👶beginner-help
bro
so what? people like me will see the help channel and respond later

Don't tell me 
+14D now 
why not
PAWS brute force again 

combat event incoming
no way ER update in 2025



In v8.4 there's a small event mode Star-Tempering Clash that has improved ER skills. One of the valks in this mode is Seele Stygian Nymph. SN skills from the event mode will be permanently added to ER (like a buff) in version 8.5
*Seele is a character from the hit game Honkai Star Rail and vintage game Honkai Impact 3rd
lol is it just tdm +70% ?
why only in er
just +70% tdm isn't giving her any use in abyss
They don't show her number 
holy SN buff for ER ?? 
Why s0 spork is terrible
someone with a very very high copium will say that this is an indicator that sn will get another buff... like a dkey.... /j /j
that sn buff is extremely random
does she struggle a ton in er or smth??????
stuff a buff is weird...
pardo struggles more rn 
she failed to clear 2.0 2 patches ago
As someone who hasnt been keeping up with honky, why is ely getting a new battlesuit?
Because the devs said shes getting one
They can just do a random event and boom some old dead char gets a new suit

Whoa so hoyo had that technology all along 
they can't let go of ely probably
money
cyrene is close to her release on hsr
they gather up cyrene fans to hi3 while they are at it
Cant be true honky barely makes enough money to keep the servers up
also we lowkey needed another ice dps
its more abt players
i see alot of cyrene fans start hi3 these days so ig ely is working
Hi3 is still popular in China this is far from the truth lol
OMAIGOTO SEEWE BUFFS
is new elysia worth it if I've already got thelema, ss dkey hohe and every other sd char?
We don't have any info about her kit or how strong she is yet but expect her to be strong since she's a CN Anni valk
So probably yes
For an definit answer wait until she's live in CN
was hoping for seele next patch because my physical team is cooked, I'll wait and see how good she is then, thank you
There's still some copium for a HoRb dkey so keep coping 
We should know whether 8.5 has a dkey or not in a few days
We'll learn from V2
its also worth noting that she may have her own niche mechanics to offer and that the new bosses will be tailored made for her even if you have ice or sd valks
she also got goi too when that's relevant
Likely gonna have her own Extreme Weather Boss
maybe
I just hope my hoh can retain on her weathers/shill since I'm skipping 
Ainoway your skipping new Ely
wow you're skipping part 1 nostalgia??1??1??1!?1!1
This
this must be a dream
Skipping to save up for ascension supply in the future
Pulling when valk is already dead that sounds more like drya
That's part of the 550 pulls I'm saving up for
I'll have you know my hoh and hofin are well alive despite having adv released
- an SD or/and an ice one
Look what my hofin got me last abyss on global on Coralie shill 
Trio > Coralie real

Probably all three
RL isn't even a measurement I got +100 on hellmaru with paws DPS
You can pretty much play anything and as long as it's decent get a good placement
I thought this was Nirv 
Unless you promoted into Nirv after that one
That was my nirv promo
+100 in nirv would've been crazy
Lol
But yeah waiting for future new Ely ascension supply, it's why I pulled FDD since she'll provide breach for my future Ely 
drya claims that ascension is better bc "you get SS right away" just for him to stay in RL
Could've pulled fdd ascension smh
Hellmaru shall at least be better when I brute force with PAWS
she is chopped and her face card got declined so no ss
You have a good team you should be fine
It will since goal is RL retain 
goal is myriad t50
^
i thought ranks are just for nirv 
when u get there no one can complain about ur pulls
even S0 can retain RL
Real, also FDD was 27k to pull normally rather than spending 150 pulls for SS FDD since I only want her breach 
Just between FWS or PS for the 3rd member
Alright
yes
her signets are terrible

That’s not the problem. The problem is that scale is too low
bunker time 
end of the world 
Nah ur cooked, ice weather with sd boss

HoHum with Sena and Lantern-sama supports 
I’ll skip ’er too, time to pull to SSS Chenxue 
where thele 
Surely SS3 hoh and ss thelema will be enough 
skipped her 
For third Valk I got senawho and s2 vita
🧱
it is up to you if you wanna get or not
but obv you'll be facing a lot of competition with all the people that will be pulling new ely + whatever else that she'll be offering
I mean… I’m already competting with all Helia-Vita owners in new Coralie teams with my HoFin + old Coralie how bad can it get 
waifu over meta 
Probs like -400 score because cant gather shards

at least you have decent supports for fdd but its about new ely dps + if she got any gimmicks that will make her a stronger dps
most er valks have tht
its the reason i dont use a ranks or old s ranks in er anymore
one needs a new er valk every few years
Nah
Im using SI for almost 2y and she still doing good
Some how griseo can still keep it up
Like very good

next month will be 100%⬆️
Can elysia save hi3 revenue
no
The game is like a walking machine at this point

lantern peak
Lantern is actually peak?
include luna outfit
Well i mean sena and the gang does make some revenue
I guess people thought Lantern would have been stronger based on how she was portrayed in the story
also she’s just incredibly cool
Plot twist they were just whaling for luna outfit
ngl, it’s pretty hard to outplay Helia-Vita with Kiana-Coralie on Coralie
and everyone and their cat seems to have that
Lantern isnt spending patch either
well, except me and my cat
no your cat has paws vita
sales suddenly increased after lantern vs perception
No fucking way
that boss fight was so good
Lamp a one hit wonder 
chapter 3 was an emotional rollercoaster 
bangar boss, banger chapter
Best chapter of part 2 by a mile
what does the W signify?
10 000
its worth more now in usd cuz usd has been devalued since then
3,489,248.34
I didn't know lamp had movement like that 
why and how did lamp make more than vita
this feels so backwards i didnt know CN liked lamp like that 😭
I'm surprised lamp did so well despite being well lamp 
Playerbase was bigger at the time
Yes, but why did it suddenly drop
Ass gameplay?
Cuz iirc JDS flopped quite hard in comparison
Many things
Bad early reception of part 2 + other external factors like new game releases
Spork in 2025
where teri
Fund me
i thought we left that in 2024 where it belongs

The Abyss schedule of this patch is very "fun"
S0 spork is terrible
what is it for week 6 onward
say something we dont know 


After HoD it's Hellmaru -> Valrahal
i can't wait for 8.5
the abyss schedule will just be
"ice" "freeze" "ranged" "SD" "bloodthirsty" "shadow"
no stupid ass qua and fire tank
whoever runs the abyss schedule at HI3 should be fired
It should be "ignite" and a lot of cora shill
We need to make CN start complaining
they're all whels it doesn't affect them like it does us 
True 
they don't need it to change cuz they have every p2 valk and all asops SS+ 
maybe if sea complains enough...
just maybe.. possibly.. perhaps

thats hella overestimating sea
let me cope 
I think I'll be winning kind of 
bro u say anything is win for u
revenue went up
he's a hero
you will NOT be winning broski
you need to get cn to complain
hell even they failed on sparkle free
they won't because they have every p2 valk 4/4 
it's the requirement to even play at that level dist with actually active playerbase
If my nostalgia imaginary then why does nostalgia always win with the recent events being focused on p1 
delulu
your nostalgia is "winning" until new ely needs FWS/PAWS
then ur nostalgia is fucked beyond belief
ely ely badum real
Isn't FWS in the nostalgia
PAWS FDD*
you can always do ely dudu ok no i do not want to see cora mentioned
yeah but he didnt pull FWS
I already have FDD and FWS

Anyway, Drya will win if the BiS is FDD FWS/HoHE/dkey
id rather use a rank cora than ever use cora2
wtf
maybe drya was playing the long game after all
I got lucky on half off multi after getting vita and dupe in same multi and got badum on her half off multi
did you get badum weapon
pulling cora2 🙄 🙄 🙄
he won't win bc they aren't P1 "nostalgia"
Yes
PAWS
PAWS yeah
Others I've mentioned I mean
I don't think paws will be needed for my ely
hear me out ely uses dudu as support 
there's probably going to be at least 1 boss that favors PAWS over other options
I got fws and fdd and hoh dkey, at worst me missing PS will be bad probably
Let's get you back to bed
Flawless is slow
dudu the potential man of p2
praised at release but she is so fucking ass 
But Ice demej
It could be good on Ice cycles
Just use trio
she was used before sushang became pure bl*ed
and i doubt she lacks something to justify FWS
She's not Potential Man if she doesn't have potential
The real Potential Man is HoHE
FWS has true dmg to SD enemy HP bars
she will without a doubt be used for at least SD weather
Until we get a thicc shield cycle ig
ely ely badum
not happening 
ill see you next week when ely ely badum has like 4 bosses
it's LWE FDD flex
yup
FDD is very likely gonna be necessary
the only breach support in GoI
what can you do 
just pull her it's not the end of world
dudu's problem is that she gives too much ele but not much other multipliers
it is 🙄
she's also slow and clunky as fuck 
dudu is fun to play as dps
maybe if you're a masochist
and i think HoDom will return again
Yes
HoD is rerunning soon
img weathers 🤤
FDD is playable unlike RS
it's not img weather
phy
FDD's gameplay is actually quite smooth although there's basically no variation to her rotations
The variation is for ranked players
the variation is for fps players 
i got 14th place on a3 yesterday does that count as smth
That too
Wtf
why does it appear when i search hi3 
what is that
new gacha animation (it's removed in beta)
oh is it the HoT beta one
also FDD suffers from RoO syndrome
i guess RoO main carry gimmick is having some special move that requires interaction at the beginning of SO and then just normal glorified burst mode for the rest of it
vita should've been a burst mode character
willing to die on this hill 
so should PAWS then
no she just does ultimate damage
and spams her ult
vita's burst actually empowers her and gives her different moves
not burst mode tho 
she's literally DA pro max 
is DA burst mode?
im assuming she is
well DA has that move where she empowers herself and puts on the armor
she's not
lmao that's crazy
burst mode tag is useless they don't use it anymore
last time they used it was for HoHE
it's wod now
THE glorified burst mode ring
where sp drain tho 
SP drain is not necessary to qualify for Burst mode tho
HoS, HoHE
they just don't use the tag for whatever reason lmfao
DW should've been Burst mode
She's not? 
even tho JDS, LP, SImp, DW, MPS, HoTr, VQ, etc. could have had it and it would fit perfectly
s u m m o n e d e n t i t y
They should make a summoned entity focused AR to make a p2 snek 
I don't think LP qualifies
SImp as well
Thele maybe
why not 
do burst, get empowered, when burst ends you're back to weak form
Cuz no significant gameplay changes outside of the punch sequence
summons star traveler
summoning starcrosser and changing her entire attack sequence doesn't qualify??? 
could have make her summoned entity
no
her burst itself
her ultimate
summons starcrosser
to change her entire attack sequence
and gives her a new ulti
Ah, you meant transforming
Well, by that logic doing her actual ult should stop it
Would make sense actually
And the transformation should cost SP
Same with HoTr, her transformation is free and doesn't stop after ulting
VQ hard no
It's just a flashy A-rank ult
JDS 100% agree
I wish IO was burst mode 
HoHE's?
yes
She isn't? 
i want to get her so bad but im waiting for her to be farmable :((
ig the gameplay changes are not significant enough
I agree, hoh animations are such a serve, the directors said take five and elysia heard change lives
im wondering what elysia’s new forms animations will look like
LMAO
Unfortunately no, I wish she was for kevin2

why do i see videos about elysias new form being in beta.. im scared to click on it
There is no footage of elysia in ba sing se, we have to wait til like 3 more days for beta gameplay I think
ohh ok
no
im so excited to see it though
bro 😭
some valks have burst mode when others deserve it more
like JDS should absolutely have the tag
so should SImp
If you're gonna bring up WC she doesn't count
Too oldge
if SN, nyx and AKA can have it then JDS and SImp should have it
SN is literally 2 valks in 1
so is HoRb but she doesn't have burst mode
Nyx has significant changes + a finisher too
HoTr should 100% have it 
I'd rather argue that SN shouldn't have Burst mode
I love jds ar animation, literally a Valk hasn't served as hard as that one, like mother was mothering like rent was due 
Anyway, we have our own understandings of what Burst mode should be and they clearly are different
burst mode should be
do ultimate, get powered up, using ultimate ends the mode
SImp and JDS check those boxes 
so true
and shes the f2p queen
Then pre-Brick HoS doesn't qualify
Cuz no finisher
yeah she really doesn't
Wtf
other burst mode valks either drain SP to end the mode or can end it manually
HoS does neither
Where is SImp's finisher
Oh, you meant the sleep mode?
Ainnoway
work done in dreams
No finisher
that's why she should get a dkey to finish it 
half the burst valks shouldn't even be burst valks
BKE gets a pass because she got a dkey to enable her to finish burst mode
does anyone even use Burst Mode anymore?
Last one I can recall was Senti
HoHE is the last Burst mode valk
The only AR Valk to have it too
They should continue that trend and make new Ely burst mode 
GoI valk but its like AKA ult where sp is spent by second
Why is agony 3 nearing 500D on Huawei
Ago3 close to NA/EU RL 
how people can disagree with simp having burst mode tag is beyond me
【嗨~我是爱莉希雅,爱的化身哦~-哔哩哔哩】 https://b23.tv/2FYuFjn
I mean...... i feel like sci's ultimate thing is more like aponias offield attacks
except it's attached to an ult and not a WA
Imagine Cora > Lantern
Sure as shit not Lantern 
999999 coin reward 


Wtf

【那一年我的白夜还在使用双狼,我的辅助还是山吹圣女-哔哩哔哩】 https://b23.tv/EeKFelC
chasing fart
wat year is this

Paws is rerunning after FDD banner ends?
its a common pattern for the valk after their first release to then rerun the following patch for p2
only outlier is songque so far
meanwhile reign Solaris over here rerunning every patch
Probably for the best it’s not Badum so I don’t have to fight off the urge to backpull
JD ascension
Bp 
should have waited to fix fish skip until after her adv
honestly that would've been so hilarious
I assume we still don’t know anything about a hypothetical 8.5 dkey?
Cool, ty
ah right 4th is dev vid yeah ?
yes, should be just that. and after that a slight post of the new character skills and banners
new ely better have visuals that are just as good if not better than hohe's
That's kinda subjective
i mean like the amount of detail and how her ult and finisher are super cinematic
The dkey finisher is mid it just fades to white
Ely stigma had the best visuals until her dkey said no
i never liked the i think T one
Why I'm always freaking right
💀
I thought that was going to happen
Oh well
Didn't think it would happen before next patch though
Elysia animations when
2-3days later
Ty noodles
it would almost make you believe they go in order
but no that can't be right, must be a wild theory
I have another wild one you won't believe, next patch is SCI 
didn't they go straight to Thelema instead of having Sena?
they skipped Sena ye, there was 1 patch without anything
LV, FoV, blank, Thelema, Lantern, Sonk
and they'll most likely stick with the 8 patches delay between release and adv now
There was also horb if you wanna add it
wife dead twice, ain't no way
I find it funny (read: sad) how poorly Sena's advertisement aged.
Can they stop run this shit


No way
watch it be Vita
Honestly it was just a matter of time before Songque's ASC would happen, I didn't think it would be that fast though
exactly 8 patches after release
Yes ofc, just I thought they would make most of her potential skin release (that we could guess from the outfit teasing) to release her ASC
Indeed. Thing is normally if ASC = no banner rerun... Guess they could make her ASC rerun right after
ye
ADVs always had 2-3 runs, and sometimes an extra with an outfit, ASC is likely to follow similar rules
and i can probably make a full sd team if ely has LoA support stuff
this is so boring i hope ely comes out soon 

oh right its in um 2 smth days
Spork top now
right before the next patch with the sd valk.. nice bait
yeah
i wonder if the p2 adv means that the valks in it won't be in carnival supply hmm
I would love to gamba for sushang ....or dudu i guess
Teri vita sparkle dudu...
i might use the free pulls on the recent from the list that i don't have
but my luck was shit on both carnivals so 
Well i might do sparkle s2...
err
and i recall u don't have her wp?
Shhhhhh

The only other one thats worth it would be s2 vita..
that would be a banger pick
Yeah...
actually i would consider s2 vita or s2 thele if its available and the other options i don't need
S2 thelema is fun If you like her
But s2 Vita prob better bc shes still used more
yeah, ig i wait for the carnival list first
S2 Sparkle also gives TF on CA 
im assuming it would be lds jds sci lp
if they follow the 2 sample size of a pattern that is
Lds?
lamp
Yeah Vita in a year and a half If it continues like that
But i better have s2 Vita in my Account by then 
Huh okay lol
yeah ill be considering s2 vita as well
that is if i get anything 
i like how it used to be that 3 from the shus were the only wod valks and got matching names but then there's hohe and her dkey 
just that 😔
hard pick between S2 JDS and S2 vita
we'll see what happens with WS cuz that's the only place vita's relevant
def s2 vita
S2 vita
ranked vita starts to match with fdd in loa so worth considering
~~ What about in WS ~~
vita is the best breacher in WS
(Joke)
do you mean qua gaming
Its so funny how WS consists of
Quantum Quantum and Stardust and mecha
Quantum shill goes hard
I would love another ws
Ws's entire concept is so amazing
yet i got my first ws in 7.7
Yuh
Then i lucksacked a sparkle (which could of been my ignite coverage....but oh well) so i got all the ws's
Helia¹ is so tied to sena and
teri
sena doesn't even complete so more like the only option 
I should try sparkle helia Vita

What
why vbs tho
full pewpewpew gameplay in er 
wtv u wanna tho
Eh wtv
i did vbs lp fws in hott bc fuck it

Wait a minute... If we got HoFi in BP Reserve rn and HoTr is currently skipped for Reserve bc of her recent apparition (in BP's patches), does that mean the next potential valk to be put in reserve might be actually Hare in 8.5 ?
imo still a bit early for hare, and they also added things from 2 separate patches that were like 2-3 patches apart in 8.3 we can probably expect something like HoTr + VQ though who knows hare might be the second valk instead of VQ
hoyo hasnt really followed a strict release pattern with reserve work
True and reserve actually only appeared in 8.2
Ok nvm it's not that recent, HoTr last apparition was in BP in 7.8
Though
Aight
It is recent in terms of patches though for HoTr on BP because 7.8 was literally the last BP shop we got before going into BP 3.0
(If not 2.0)
i dont think hoyo cares about that
True though, still weird they skipped HoTr until now
we also got JK and HoO in 8.3 and skipped CN which we then got this patch
so HoTr is kinda obvious for next patch
I mean CN is a SP so if they decided to add 2 S Ranks valks in BP... Not really a wonder
Since it seems they're just going with 2 sets per patch
i mean hoyo isnt following a clear pattern there either we got 2 S ranks in 8.3 and only 1 this patch i dont see how her being SP has really anything to do with this
they're just roughly following release orders while jumping a bit between patches
same shit they did before
Yeah there's literally no pattern possible
Not only bc we got HoTr in 7.8 and 7.9 but also bc we got Hare in 8.0 and 8.1
So yeah either they go HoTr and then Hare later on, or they straight up jump Hare just to propose her again even more later on
This got me curious
Same as the question "will Elysia have many TAGS or just 2-3"
the question I really have is will ely have a "???" tag
18 days of the pink thing this patch alone 
Main event - 11 days clear
Mini event - 7 days clear

So soon ? Idk... Though it will be our 2nd GoI valk. Which might sign a change of AR again in 2 patches if that's the case (starting from 8.5)
i mean, RS started LoA and she already had a "???" tag
True
But reminder : until now, without counting DKs and A Ranks, we only got 3 valks per AR
WoS : Sparkle, Sena, Teri
WoD : Thelema, Lantern, Songque
LoA : Durandal, Kiana, Sushang
GoI : Helia, Elysia, ????
RoO : Vita, Coralie, ????
wtf is WoS 
WS
WS: TFM, FL, VBs, SImp
RoO: VBm, LP, HoFi, FDD
WoD: MPS, LDS, JDS, HoH:E
LoA: RS, FWS, PS
GoI: PAWS, LWE
and then for asops there's
WS: songque
RoO: chenxue, teri
WoD: serapeum
LoA: teri
GoI: chenxue
no dkey name instead? using valk name is kinda misleading
not in a help channel so wtv

2/3 more days 
2 days for us
Again for not reading my messages
^^
you say 3 valks per ring and then ignore the A ranks and dkeys to push and fit your agenda 
I really hope elys animations give what they’re supposed to give and gag everyone 
a day and a half
dem
Because we got no A ranks after Helia and Coralie and also got only a weap bring the others an AR that wouldn't exist without it

it doesn't matter when the game counts them as having that AR's tag 
I don’t want a ranks tbh 
Unless their weapon was free or something I don’t want them since I wouldn’t like if a character I liked got relegated to a rank and not be a s rank 
Still not the matter when literally all valks after 7.3 were straight up S Ranks but whatsoever
"but whatsoever" 😭
would make team building for new people easier though
Understood but at least it avoid the double pain of pulling
no it doesn't
they just have to do a patch where the main valk is an sp valk
but they won't do that again
CE was the last time
sp valks don't even exist anymore
They literally won't do that ever and same for A Ranks
Again
Just pull vita and cora2 and you have a valk to support all rings, plus the dkeys for valks and there you go, you have the cheapest way to support all rings 
SP valks were literally A Ranks too and tbh both are long gone
SP valks and A ranks are different
even if they share the same rank
just like augment cores
their banners are diff and skill tree is diff
And again, if they decided to release A ranks or SP for each AR, they would have done so waaaaay sooner
Plus SP also start at A Rank
7 in which we will have no A ranks since they straight up stopped doing that
we don't know that they stopped doing A ranks yet
it's still possible for future AR types to have a rank(s)
Deadass, Helia and Coralie were mainly made because Sena needed a whole to work well with AR
Without that context, A ranks were literally not a thing since so loong
sena didn't even use senatrio for most of her bosses in 7.3 
i used eden luna sena for a while
and even then helia was used with sena all the way up until 7.8
coralie is still being used today
That still doesn't change the matter. Without the new mechanic, Coralie and Helia wouldn't even be there in the first place as A ranks
that was usually the best team for sena in 7.3 or sena lv htr
you dont know that tho
saying they're done with A ranks is probably decently accurate but not fully accurate because there are still 7 AR types and years left on this game
plenty of time to release 1 A rank
Buddy, it's pure gacha and financial logic here. They wouldn't add a new mechanic without adding the tools needed to play with said new mechanic. Cora and Helia were freebies A ranks for a reason in 7.3 (except Helia's weap).
If you're so on board with technical words, the last A Rank (not SP) valk before Helia and Coralie was Raven
Which was in 5.2
i didn't say SP valks weren't A ranks they're just different
5.2-7.3
21 patches gap between Raven and Helia + Cora
21 PAtches without simple A rank
A Ranks were long gone
no they were not 😭
A Ranks were a fat part of the meta for most of P1
they just took the form of SP valks which are different from A ranks but they still share the same rank
Dude, SP valks were a thing ofc, but I meant like A rank that were not SP valks
21 patches beween no A Rank Raven and A Rank Coralie and Helia
You gotta cope with it
A Ranks without SP were long gone
and when was the last time an SP valk came out before 7.3
7.1
if A ranks were long gone they would have made cora/helia SP valks as well 😭
Yeah but SP, not just A Rank
idk what you're trying to get at or how this correlates with your 3 valks per ring thing
What are you even arguing about
They didn't make them SP valks for a reason
he says they only do 3 valks per ring
Nuh uh you ain't resuming the conv with just that buddy
that's what you say constantly 
About 3 valks per AR and this man going delulu about A Ranks
not even just A ranks
sure, rough pattern of three gacha valks a ring. No guarentee they’ll stick with it, but it’s probably better than even odds. And then we’ll get some random dkeys?
you're ignoring stellar keys too
Spreading love and wholesome vibes
🍞
MAYBE bc that was the main subject before you've gone out of subject
Read the room
and what was that reason
Idk an A rank wouldn’t shock me at some point but it’ll probably be a while, at some point the free units might get dated enough that they release a new slightly less dated cope support. But it’s anyone’s guess, mihoyo does what they please. And it also wouldn’t shock me if they never do an A rank again
because i thought A ranks were long gone after raven
Fathoming the minds of gacha makers is
Reading tea leaves tbh
I try not to have strong expectations about what random decisions they will make
i don't really care if they release an A rank or not honestly but i know it's definitely a possibility 😭
Bc generally you would need to pull for both weaps if that was the case, in addition of Sena
what does that have to do with anything 😭
you had to pull helia's weap, and coralie's was free from story
Bro is gonna make me have my second headache of the week, and it's only tuesday SMH
you literally make 0 sense
Yeah whatever floats your boat
no that literally does not correlate at all
"A ranks were long gone after raven"
"okay, why were coralie and helia regular A ranks"
"cuz u wouldve had to pull both their weapons if they werent"
??????
Still filling your agenda
1- All A ranks after Raven were SP valks
2- Because they wouldn't take the risk of making a Trio case again were you need to whale 3 S valks
3- Same reason as 2nd one
Again pure gacha and finance logic
Nothing more
what would the difference be if coralie and helia were SP valks
Hence why they were free
Bro forgot we needed to pull every single piece of gear for SP valks in a time where banners still had off-featured gears
when tf did you need to whale for 3 s ranks for trio HoO was basically an a rank since you only needed to pull for gear
If you don't understand something when I'm clearly explaining it, do think again
Ok one point for that, still you had to summon entirely 2 of them
in 2 different patches that was really just a normal release
Still 3 S in a whole team
most teams are 3 s ranks these days
okay but they got rid of that in 7.3
during part one the equipment banner was the worse, that's why we make the distinction between S ranks before and after p2
That too, but in P1... Not the same deal, at least it wasn't that common to have triple based S valks in teams
^^ For literally thiw very reason @rancid plank
it was 200 pulls max for all equipment, on the opposite of only 60 max for the weapon now (with stigmata craftable) that's one of the best change i've ever seen

HoO card and stig box were free
and her equipment banner was really good because it refunded you cards every time you did a 10x
it was the equivalent or even less expensive than pulling an SP valk/A rank
Tbf Stellar keys replace the need for a ranks, the Stellar ring valks cover all rings for cheap cost
Plus if you get vita and cora2 you and the Stellar keys it's the cheapest cost to cover all rings 
I'm sorry what
ALL rings?
Sign me tf up for that mysteries key bro
they don't cover WS or GoI
You have hofin for roo and ws, hoh for wod, loa, goi
HoFi?
*elysia does but continue
oh damn they do cover every ring then
Rare Drya W
HoFi covers RoO and WS
HoHE covers WoD LoA and GoI
And you can grab vita and cora2 second Valk to cover all ring types 
Ok but not a key for all of them 
Dw he will ruin it by promoting to pull jds adv
eventually™
soon™
All ring types atm
you're still fucked in GoI
or including stellar keys
Imagine if 8.5 actually makes Songque retire
The ultimate bait
her run has been long enough 😭 it's time to let her go
Fish skip is not good in MA
People should on songque ascension since her AR animation is such a motherquake serve on the motherscale

Cuz CAs alr are sus anis there
Fair
fishskip also does lose a teensy bit of dmg
You more than compensate for that with speed
it's just so tiny in abyss that it never mattered
in MA it does matter tho
(in Abyss)
Well her ASC got officialized for the end of 8.4
Ye, ik
I would pick up songque from ascension but no funds if I do for like a paws probably or Ely ascension, if I picked up songque I would have to skip paws ascension to afford it
????
Shit is coming fast
Isn't it a bit...far?
why would PAWS ascension be anywhere close to JDS ascension
PAWS literally just came out she wont have an ascension for another year
He always have been like that, just his simps habits
He's not pulling for meta
Been knowing him more than you do yes I'm aware
drya just pull JDS at least then youll have a phys DPS
a years worth of xtal income is 122k
I have to afford 14k on vita ascension for SS rank, 16.8k for horb dkey if it ever happens since hoh and hofin got one, then 42k for paws ascension, another 42k for Ely ascension supply
you can easily do that
Just get the card early smh
14k and 16.8k can be made in 1.5 patches
84k can be made in a year

what do you even have for phys actually
And if another Valk I really like comes after Ely then another 42k needed
you make 122k xtals in a year as an F2P
you have more than enough time and resources to afford PAWS/LWE ascension
This my account atm, so nothing for phys

pls pull JDS 😭
what's your xtal count now
we can dissect and go over it 
So basically if I pull songque ascension then I'll be able to afford 50 pulls on vita ascension and horb dkey, and 3 ascension supplys after that by the time it's paws ascension supply? My current crystals count is 34k
According to this image it's at 34k
oh my god you have more than enough xtals 😭
Really? 
vita ascension won't be for another 2 patches at least, so that's ~40k xtals
HoRb dkey if it is coming is more likely to come next patch than any other patch because CN anni, you have enough weeks to afford ely + HoRb dk by the time 8.5 comes out. if HoRb dk isn't 8.5 then even better and you can save more
PAWS ascension is not for another year at least. same for ely ascension. late next year at best. in the time it would likely take for LWE to get an ascension supply you can make 139.5k xtals which would be enough to pull PAWS ascension plus any valks you might want before/after that
songque ascension supply it is then

you can make 17k more xtals by the time 8.5 comes out
that's 51k
if you have even an ounce of luck that's easily enough to guarantee LWE 4/4 and HRB DK
if no HRB dk you are gigachilling lmfao
And songque ascension supply refunds pulls which those refunded pulls can be used for a future horb dkey

oh also next patch is 10 weeks so another entire week to build xtals
I'm skipping s0 Ely for ascension
then you're fine
could even pull SImp ascension if you really wanted to i think
but that'd be risky and not worth it
Isnt jds a lot worse than she was cuz of the loss of fish skip?
I'm so happy, I can get songque she has my favorite ar animation 
actually if HRB dk happens next patch you won't be able to pull SImp ascension
no she's still good
that might change when LWE comes out tho
Tbf I was never gonna do the fish skip since I can't do techs like fish skip or the hofin tech so it makes no difference to me 
i was too lazy to do it
i refused to do it because it was stupid and cheap 
Shes used outside of sd still?
nah but used in MA
also he has nothing else and she's a top 5 LoA support with or without fishskip
Since I'm getting songque who would her teammates be? For WoD I got hoh, thelema, senawho, vita?
thele vita
Omg my ss thelema is getting more use

LoA supports in question:
Songque (given)
Vita
Sparkle
Dudu
Badum
HoH
Sushang
Helia
Coralie
9 valks
wheres ws support.. :(
wheres ws support is a crazy question bro
literally every valk pre-8.0 had WS tag 
only one that didn't was JDS
WS in 2025 
Let's list it for good measure
For WS there's hofin, helibad, cora1, vita, thelema, lamp, simp, sparkle, badum
WS supports:
sena
coralie
helia
thele
lantern
simp
vita
hofi
sparkle
badum
Sena
Helia
Coralie
Thele
Lantern
Teri
Vita
HoFi
Sparkle
Badum
Sena
Vbs
Vbm
Thele
lantern
Schi
lantern
sparkle
fws
hofi
world star and LoA have the most supports

Yes

WS or resonance?
