OH boi

[abstract night]

My question is why theres 3 psychic dkeys

[still condor]

Psy impact 3rd

[noble cobalt]

well a bunch of the stronger part 1 valks were psychic

[wild citrus]

remember how PSY was dominant for a significant amount of time in P1

[abstract night]

The A rank
The 3 dkeys
And lantern

[noble cobalt]

next divine key is probably fov or silver wing, although i remember hearing someone say fov divine key is impossible

[wild citrus]

also: ask MHY when they make, idk, P1 Sushang DK or smt

[ember locust]

HoFi is literally one of the best (and also only) options in RoO for support. She's still really decent for WS and RoO support. Her DPS is great even though she needd ranks.

HoRb is straight up ass without SS in DPS and her support is straight as useless as HoHe 😭😭

[wild citrus]

Why "impossible"

[noble cobalt]

smth about her stamps being available in ER

[wild citrus]

if you ask me, FoV has beter odds of getting a DK ignoring the "trio" angle

[noble cobalt]

idk why that makes a stellar key for her impossible but someone brought that up earlier

[wild citrus]

to that I say: SW is farmable

SSS is literally free

[abstract night]

Yeah. I do

[untold marsh]

The censored CN letter count didn't match up

[abstract night]

Wait what

[untold marsh]

For the fov iirc

[noble cobalt]

8.8 has no valk so im assuming we're getting a stellar key in place of one

I think they should try giving a P1 support a stellar key

[abstract night]

Whos it match up with

[still condor]

AE

[wild citrus]

I personally dont mind because back-to-back DK patches with new S ranks on top of that, except with the one after CNY hvaing also new AsOp and maybe another gacha skin (while CNY also has gacha skin and tons of reruns) would be too demanding

[untold marsh]

A few, the most likely candidate in several people's minds is SW

[ember locust]

1- Her stamps are in ER, until now those who are added in it's shop didn't make it for the P2 DK. Those with P2 DK are added straight to either BP or PWO after the patch of their release

2- As Luna said, the CN letters doesn't even match the skin teased with Younyun ?? Questionnable ??

[muted mauve]

what are you talking about

[untold marsh]

I thought FoV had more than 4 letters

[noble cobalt]

I could see hoyoverse milking the flame chasers one last time and giving them stellar key

[wild citrus]

hope not

[magic gust]

what letters where?

[untold marsh]

Probably misremembering if it is 4 letters long

[muted mauve]

what letters

[abstract night]

Ooh
Gooooooo uhm yeah uh doubtful.. hotr is the last support thats not an sp valk so maybe her? Idfk

[wild citrus]

I had enough with Amphoreus in HSR
let the Flame Chasers rest

[noble cobalt]

Jade Knight sushang

[abstract night]

Sw is outrageous

[wild citrus]

what does the skin have to do with anything?

[wild citrus]

I figured it was a PAWS skin

[abstract night]

I would laugh
Like just laugh, not in a bad way, but like.

[ember locust]

I suppose

[magic gust]

new cloth attire (the kanji)

that’s a skin

[noble cobalt]

Although

[magic gust]

if you mean 2nd

[abstract night]

Lokey i think ps

[muted mauve]

What does that have to do with the conversation context?
That's an outfit.

[noble cobalt]

if they keep releasing divine keys at such a staggering pace, theyll run out of viable valks to give them to pretty soon

[muted mauve]

[ember locust]

Idk trying to connect the dots with whatever Luna said

[noble cobalt]

also not to mention that one day the stellar keys will add up to like +200 ATK

[untold marsh]

Oh wait I'm an idiot I was thinking of the outfit

[ember locust]

😭🤌

[atomic coral]

it's already does, doesn't it?

[sinful river]

Who? Info when

[ember locust]

Lmfao

[noble cobalt]

the stellar keys right now add up to +40 atk

only stellar keys, not regular divine keys

[abstract night]

Or 80 attack if ur lacking

Which is just

._."

[muted mauve]

They add up to 80

[atomic coral]

oh I thought you meant all together

[noble cobalt]

arent the stellar keys +10

[magic gust]

新服装
I don’t know how easy it is to memorize arbitrary symbols without learning Japanese or Chinese, but from left to right those are “new”, “cloth”, “attire”

[still condor]

Stellar keys are 20 each

[noble cobalt]

[magic gust]

or related meanings

[atomic coral]

sync3 is +20 atk

[wild citrus]

not impossible but something about the belt design made me think PAWS

Also, the ornament on the left is similar to Helia's choppy hair but idk

[noble cobalt]

oh sync3

im talking about non whales

[muted mauve]

worst thing hi3 ever introduced

[abstract night]

No thats fair, i just lokey think its ps

[untold marsh]

I was just misremembering the conversation about who the outfit could be for as something else

[ember locust]

Unknown, when you zoom and look attentively : doesn't it looks like Bronya SW somehow ?

Can as well be PAWS though

[muted mauve]

The bracket does not care if you are a whale or not

[magic gust]

my bet would be it’s Mei actually

[noble cobalt]

do they even give skins to p1 valks anymore

[ember locust]

Not even sure

[noble cobalt]

whenever i see a skin teaser i kinda assume its for a p2

[still condor]

they just made a recolor for griseo last patch didnt they?

[muted mauve]

Only these are 4 characters long

[ember locust]

The grey silver hair is weird

[ember locust]

😭😭 Vita again ??

[wild citrus]

whereas the actually viable P1 valks imo are FoV and Misteln

[abstract night]

If its bronya, itll be hotr

[wild citrus]

but Misteln is pretty unpopular so prob FoV if you ask me

[magic gust]

do y’all think it has to match lenght-wise? I thought the number of stars there is arbitrary

[still condor]

its a censored suit name

[noble cobalt]

it would be weird for the new trio team to be 2 native astral ring valks and 1 stellar key valk... i think hoyo would just release a battlesuit for bronya

[magic gust]

ah ok

[muted mauve]

it alwasy matches .-.

[magic gust]

thx

[abstract night]

So those r the outfit choices?

[magic gust]

I genuinely didn’t know, sorry

[wild citrus]

I guess HoTr would work....actually, yeah, I wouldnt mind HoTr as long as HoO gets nothing

nah but fr, I doubt HoTr, Bronya is popular, imo MHY should milk that APHO2 design

[still condor]

HoO should get 4 dkeys, one per sword

[ember locust]

Why I have a doubt about the last letter matching Hare

[noble cobalt]

hare dkey would just be sad

[ember locust]

Idk anything though

[magic gust]

it’s still a skin 😭

[noble cobalt]

Imagine releasing hare dkey right after mei

[atomic coral]

hare dkey after mei booted her out

[ember locust]

There's no ties between a skin and an eventual DK yet

[abstract night]

And if there
"Oh oh but but trio"
Make her LoA supporting WoD and Loa.
And a "og trio lol never gonna happen" skill

[noble cobalt]

If hare gets a dkey her abyss stages will have to include Mei -50% TDM or else she is not top scoring her own abysses

[still condor]

HoTr dkey that buffs HoO and gives HoO her normal ult back when HoO is leader

[ember locust]

Where do you get this image btw ?

[abstract night]

Naw itll be
+100% tdm if u have summoned entity

[noble cobalt]

HoV dkey

[noble cobalt]

+100% for summon AND Mei -50% tdm

[still condor]

now she can do 2 damage instead of 1

[noble cobalt]

that will secure hare's spot in the meta

[abstract night]

Exactly!

It almost beats meis 101%

[magic gust]

200% dmg

[shrewd socket]

XDC can instakill already

[abstract night]

Make it boss not mob

[noble cobalt]

we included mei -50% tdm dont worry

anyways if 8.8 has no dkey at least its save patch

[atomic coral]

the no meis allowed debuff

[still condor]

just make the boss kiana and have mei do 0 damage because she doesnt wanna beat her wife anymore

[noble cobalt]

if there is one then i will instapull, i like collecting the stellar keys

[still condor]

[noble cobalt]

i even pull for them over new valkyries

[wild citrus]

hm? seems I got modded by aichan
this is how I end up leaving till next patch smh, hate automod bots

[magic gust]

how long is the text in Sparkle’s 「」? couldn’t she count as 4 too?

[noble cobalt]

Sparxie outfit for Spork

actually no the outfit doesnt look remotely like sparxie

[magic gust]

I don’t wanna be too autistic about it, but also what about stuff like new Ely’s 嗨 and special symbols? would those count as characters?

[noble cobalt]

how long do we have to speculate about this

official info is usually on global week 3 right

[dark kettle]

no new valk. Isn’t this super new or something

[magic gust]

ah alright, I see
thx!

[noble cobalt]

Im going to tell myself that there is a new valkyrie and that hoyo cannot reveal her for some reason

[wild citrus]

for HI3 it is
though, from another perspective, P2 DKs are basically A ranks for P2, and there were A Rank only patches in P1

....wait, I think there was one patch in early-ish P1 that had no new valk too

[naive briar]

Even without punctuations, Sparkle isn't 4 words...

[wild citrus]

but it was years ago so I dont remember very well

[naive briar]

what in the misinformation...

[magic gust]

I was thinking about dropping the entire 「・・・」 part

[ember locust]

I can check the Kiana's book but I'm pretty sure there was no patch without valk

[noble cobalt]

yeah and just like Sp valks, dkey valks are usually given out for free before they get their dkey

[dark kettle]

So it is pretty new

Are devs just out of ideas

[wild citrus]

why call it misinformation when I didn't make a factual statement, but a comparison?

[noble cobalt]

more like this is the P2 version of an A rank patch

[ember locust]

Not just out of ideas I think

[noble cobalt]

but yes we cant deny that Hi3 is slowly going downhill

[dark kettle]

idm having nahralab being playable

[willow lynx]

do we know what battlesuit comes after Xentinel Mei?

[wild citrus]

no

[magic gust]

well… about that

[atomic coral]

funny story

[noble cobalt]

Theyre spamming part 1 alters even though the people that wanted part 1 alters have already quit the game

[magic gust]

what we know is in the pins and so far it’s a an AOp and a skin

[dark kettle]

I feel like p2 stories are kinda hard to follow

[willow lynx]

yea I saw

[willow lynx]

does this AOP work for Mei or what

[magic gust]

no info so far

[noble cobalt]

no idea yet

[ember locust]

We don't know yet

[wild citrus]

I don't mind P1 alters if they get new models. Those new models are gorgeous

[noble cobalt]

Although, Chenxue covers GoI already

AOP is probably for an old AR

[wild citrus]

I really don't see it that way

[noble cobalt]

I think its an aop for WoD since Sera at S0 is...

WoD needs a new aop

[wild citrus]

in fact, P2 has been very character-driven lately

You can check what the character is thinking or wants to do and you know where it's going at that moment

[ember locust]

So WS and WoD AOP wouldn't be a too far stretch ?

[noble cobalt]

WS is fine with Songque shes strong enough

[atomic coral]

new ws aop that actually works with horb

[noble cobalt]

WoD is the one that really needs a new aop

[abstract night]

Whats wrong with sera!?

[glass nacelle]

This's how elf/ao works

[ember locust]

Songque being given in spending is quite a red flag

[wild citrus]

Sera is legit used more for physical damage valks that aren't WD than actual WD valks, at least at S (idk SS cuz I dont have her SS)

[noble cobalt]

also the util that sera provides to WoD valks is a little underwhelming compared to the util that Chenxue and Teri provide

[abstract night]

Okay well S sera is pathetic

[noble cobalt]

Yeah lol, Rita's best aop is actually songque and chenxue

although sera allows her to immediately fill up stellar surplus

but thats not a huge deal

[wild citrus]

also, P2 Rita letting WD access SO benefits outside of SO also slightly undermines the benefit of a dedicated WD AsOp

unless we get an AsOp that directly interacts with the SO overflow thing at least. Maybe if Sera got an alt AsOp? LOL

[abstract night]

U lose her elemental dmg support without ss
Otherwise its just
Lol

[glass nacelle]

Immediately fill up = not huge deal

[noble cobalt]

directly interacting with overflow would be a bad decision at the moment

[wild citrus]

umu

[noble cobalt]

considering that there's literally one valkyrie that can enable it

needs to wait until multiple valks can enable overflow

[magic gust]

SS is always the one which fills up the SO charge, right?

[wild citrus]

I don't mind if MHY forces everyone to pull Rita

more people should sacrifice their pulls to Rita

especially Elysia pullers

[magic gust]

don’t have Teri, but I think it’s so for others

[noble cobalt]

also rita was a bait pull for XDC, not so many people pulled for her

[smoky lintel]

Not always but that's the trend

[wild citrus]

I did, no regrets

[magic gust]

was about to look it up

[noble cobalt]

immediately fill up one half*

you need to fill one half by yourself but sera can immediately recharge the remaining 50% of stellar surplus

i mistyped

[glass nacelle]

Bro u can use phantom to fill full bar if sera is ss

[noble cobalt]

Eh that depends on if all seras are assumed SS

Which I only assume ranks if the ranks were given for free

[magic gust]

Songque SS : SO refill
Sera SS : SO refill (see correction a few messages below)
Teri SS : SO refill
Chenxue SS : SO refill
yep!

[noble cobalt]

Like I always assume HoH as SS whenever she’s mentioned

[magic gust]

* by SO refill I mean “Astral Ring Intensity”

[smoky lintel]

Sera Ari regen is S though

[glass nacelle]

Oh yes

[magic gust]

oh wait, my bad yes, you’re right

SS is initial

[smoky lintel]

I also don't think it's too far off to release an aop when only one person can interact with that, just look at SQ

Or even cx we only had one GoI unit at that time

Sure she has RoO but goi is her main aspect

[glass nacelle]

Another aunt songque when

[noble cobalt]

I think SQ was more acceptable since at the time Sena was the only P2 Valkyrie and was also virtually the best Valkyrie in the game so everyone pulled for her

[magic gust]

SQ also introduced a new concept kinda
-# not the right word, but you know what I mean

[glass nacelle]

Songque ao is terrible since launch so they have to buff her

[noble cobalt]

Also CX was not locked into GoI

CX is also RoO’s astralOP

[smoky lintel]

I never said that but it's her main trait

RoO is kinda just a side grade so the same thing could happen with youyun

[noble cobalt]

Yes but in a literal sense songque is the only AoP who’s trait interacts with one Valkyrie

Also when CX launched it was a given that GoI will receive more Valkyries, we don’t actually know that the next WoD Valkyrie will grant surplus

[smoky lintel]

Iirc the surplus description very much hints at that

[magic gust]

you mean Youyun could support some sort of Stellar Surplus shenanigans? or anything when AR is at full intensity but non-activated?

[magic gust]

this part?

[smoky lintel]

No like in game when you click on the stellar surplus text the description is not really bound to Rita but rather general

[smoky lintel]

Imo it would make sense yeah

[magic gust]

ah! thx! I skipped her, so didn’t even know that

[noble cobalt]

I think a new wod aop should just enable all wod valks to access surplus

more player friendly

[magic gust]

what if it’s not WoD bound

you could have the same mechanic with also World Star for instance

[noble cobalt]

you would have to change the mechanic a little

[gleaming imp]

I still think if sw got a dkey she’d be WoD or have it as a ring she can support because all our p2 ice valks have WoD/can support it

[noble cobalt]

imagine aop that lets WS trigger resonance outside of SO

[smoky lintel]

Tbh that would just speak against that since they'd take over each other coverage a bit, but we'll yee

[noble cobalt]

or maybe aop that allows older valkyries to end SO ealry because that's something that basically all new valks can do

[gleaming imp]

Wouldn’t it be like thelema is mech and does bio bosses and HoH is psy so she does mech bosses and sw is bio so she does psy bosses and hle is sd so she does SD bosses

Or something like that

[noble cobalt]

I think WoD is the least likely AR for her lol

if shes wod then neither kiana nor mei can support her

[gleaming imp]

She can pull a hofin/cora2

[noble cobalt]

it would be easier to just make her WS or LoA

also having 3 ice WoD sounds weird

[smoky lintel]

But it made sense for cora since RoO DPS are always restricted by passives in team building and any valk will activate their 3/3 leader skill, ofc they could do smth like that but it seems very unlikely imo

Especially since Mei has a locked passive and with the skin everything is pointing in one direction imo

[noble cobalt]

If sw gets a dkey she should be ws so that no matter whos the leader in the trio team it'll always be a valid team

[gleaming imp]

If not wod then please be either GoI or LoA or RoO so I can use my SS teriteri or SS chenxue

[noble cobalt]

I think LoA probably

stellar key valks have not repeated astral ring types yet

[gleaming imp]

I don’t have songque or sera for WS or wod

[noble cobalt]

according to precedent, the next dkey should be from LoA

but precedent isnt absolute

but for LoA i think fov is a better fit

I just really want aponia dkey, shes my fav valk and im still salty that shes useless now

[gleaming imp]

I’m still upset aponia and vill v never got starless shill

A older valk like mobius got starless shill but those two unfortunately none

[noble cobalt]

If the next dkey is sw, that means theyre willing to give dkeys to SUPER old valkyries which means both of them could receive one

[gleaming imp]

[still condor]

if we get more FC events maybe, but SW is technically her most recent form

[noble cobalt]

Aponia and VV have weird kits though that might be hard to translate into an AR

like Aponia is off field for a long time

[still condor]

aponia could be WS i think

off field is just like eepy

have her combo bolts trigger the resonance things

[noble cobalt]

If hoyo continues to release dkeys at the pace they currently do

the FCs will probably all have dkey before 9.5

assuming hi3 lasts until 9.5

[gleaming imp]

i would love a mobius dkey though they’d have to figure out how to make it so snek doesnt just take vitas stuff

[still condor]

vita is old its about time for her to die

[noble cobalt]

just dont make her RoO

change vita's abysses to RoO weather instead of lightning

[atomic coral]

if mobius gets a dkey, vita dies

[noble cobalt]

but yeah mobius taking over vita's bosses wouldnt even be a bad thing

vita is over 2+ years now

Also mobius cant take what was hers in the first place

[still condor]

more importantly than her age, her gameplay is pure ass

[noble cobalt]

vita took her bosses and mobius deserves them back

[gleaming imp]

[noble cobalt]

her charged attack with a 10 year cast time

honestly just get rid of vita dps and let her be a niche support for a few valks

they did that to sena already

[still condor]

i never wanna play an RoO dps ever again

[noble cobalt]

RoO feels terrible to me because their teams are so restricted

[still condor]

i dont really have an issue with the team, its just that vita and coralie both have really boring gameplay for on field

[noble cobalt]

I think RoO valks are designed to be support and are simply given super high dmg multipliers for their dps role

like fws you can tell she wasnt designed to be a dps

[gleaming imp]

I like trio the most of the RoO dps with vita second

I don’t like cora2 gameplay

[still condor]

and songque wasnt designed for WoD

[atomic coral]

i mean trio is just trio

[gleaming imp]

Exactly at least HoO has dmg contribution

[still condor]

yeah its just trio except kiana sometimes does 3 combos instead of 2

[atomic coral]

RoO gameplay just feels like WoD at home

[noble cobalt]

If 8.9 is a part 1 alter im gonna lose my mind

im not waiting 16+ weeks for another part 1 alter

[noble cobalt]

idk what hoyo even wants RoO to be

RoO is like a support AR with dps capabilities haphazardly plugged in

[gleaming imp]

They weren’t cooking with cora2 like they did vita and hofin

For dps

Cora2 dps gameplay

[noble cobalt]

scoralie is the definition of "this valkyrie was designed to be a support but we had to let her have a dps role"

[ember locust]

You mean HoFi Waxing Moon

FWS valk was LoA

[smoky lintel]

I kinda like her dragon breath but her gameplay does feel boring yeah, tbf vita also is really repetitive but feels better because you do cancels in between

[noble cobalt]

im talking about fws

[ember locust]

FWS is not even RoO wth are you saying

https://tenor.com/view/champoy-el-risitas-kek-issou-etu-gif-17837830

[noble cobalt]

I mean I think fws was designed to be a support but they just gave her dps capabilities because of the way P2 works

you can kind of tell whether or not a valk is oriented towards dps or support

[smoky lintel]

They just mean x Valkyrie feels like they're designed to be a DPS no relation to RoO, while in comparison RoO valks feel like supports with a forced DPS part

[ember locust]

Sure but bro used FWS as example

Why FWS when she's LoA and doesn't support RoO

[noble cobalt]

im not talking about just RoO anymore

[atomic coral]

I'd argue someone like Songque feels better as a support than a dps

[ember locust]

Coralie is a good example of what you say, FWS IS NOT a good example of it

[ember locust]

This is also a good example

[atomic coral]

WoD Songque kinda slow and clunky

[noble cobalt]

honestly what im talking about is more of a vibe

[smoky lintel]

? The point is that FWS feels like a valk designed to be a DPS while the RoO valks don't

[ember locust]

Kiana is actually good both DPS and Support wise

[smoky lintel]

They're not saying that FWS was designed to be a support lmao

[noble cobalt]

like i mentioned before im mostly talking about vibes that are in the end, subjective

like XDC has the vibe that shes a dps first and support second

[ember locust]

He literally said the opposite

2 freaking times

[noble cobalt]

well i just explained my position more clearly... please read my updated thoughts

[ember locust]

Ik it's midnight for me but I can still read

[smoky lintel]

You replied to the second point so I assumed you also used that as a base line

[noble cobalt]

I'm not claiming that FWS is a bad dps im saying she doesnt feel like one LOL

like you cant feel the impact and weight behind her attacks as opposed to some other valks that feel like a DPS

its subjective

[smoky lintel]

Ainoway I misread the wasn't in the first statement just ignore me it late already, but yeah I get your point

I think we can settle this here

[noble cobalt]

Although im probably wording this crappily which makes it hard to understand

[ember locust]

Sure but personnally, I don't see how it would be the case for FWS

I could see the point with Cora and Songque though

[ember locust]

THANK YOU for once

[abstract night]

I think Lantern more support oriented
Quickswappy support thats not quick

[still condor]

nah lantern is just chopped

[abstract night]

Sparkles also definitely more support than dps

[still condor]

she has no animations

[abstract night]

[noble cobalt]

Yeah you can't really feel the weight behind lanter's attacks which doesnt make her feel like she was made to be a DPS

[ember locust]

True

[abstract night]

No wayyy

[ember locust]

Sparkle is the peakest example of that

[gleaming imp]

Also her one animation of shooting with her rifle being just as stiff as a pre HoR bronya suit

[noble cobalt]

does lantern have any topscores...

[atomic coral]

tank

[gleaming imp]

She had tank but I scored higher than a premium Lamp haver with trio so

[abstract night]

Sena dps
Thelema lokey support ...
Lantern support
Songque debatable
Teri dps
Vita dps
Sparkle support
Dudu debatable? Idk
Badum support imo
PS debatable
Helia dps
Coralie idrk
Hle idrk
Rita dps
Mei dps

[noble cobalt]

teri does not feel like a dps... her attacks dont feel impactful at all

[scarlet sapphire]

In my experience Lantern ownership is so low that I get +100s just from doing a single non-optimized run with ranked up trio

In RL, I mean

[abstract night]

Her tennis racket feels nice

[noble cobalt]

i unfortunately have lantern, simp, AND mie

i got triple baited

[abstract night]

Whos ..mie?

[scarlet sapphire]

I have simp, but only because I got her on the discounted ten pull

[noble cobalt]

miss espionage

[abstract night]

Oh

[atomic coral]

i got both lantern and simp in the first discounted 10 pull

no pity built up for either

[abstract night]

I got mei in the discounted 10 pull

And.. thats.. it

[ember locust]

Here's what I think :

Sena DPS
Thelema both
Lantern support
Songque support
Teri Support
Vita DPS
Sparkle Support
Dudu DPS
Badum both
PS fits both
Helia DPS
Coralie Support
HLE : Fits both
Rita DPS
Mei DPS

[noble cobalt]

i honestly agree with this entire list

[ember locust]

Lol same but Cora and Helia

[abstract night]

Thelemas more support to me
It doesnt really feel impactful
Like ur just hitting an enemy with a pool noodle

[noble cobalt]

I think i gave off the impression that i was talking about meta strength support vs dps but

i was talking about animations mostly

[ember locust]

Personally I think Thelema's feels smooth in gameplay whether it's DPS or Support. It's way too fun XD

[gleaming imp]

I love thelema gameplay

[atomic coral]

thelema feels like you're playing bayonetta just without the wicked weave at the end of the combo

[noble cobalt]

she really is both because even with HoHe lead Thele is the dps

[abstract night]

Not on ranged ice tank

Or was it ranged heph

[noble cobalt]

I wasnt aware there was a ranged ice tank

[abstract night]

I feel like it was ranged heph

Or hemi.. idk the bosses lol

[atomic coral]

yeah it's ranged heph

[noble cobalt]

why did the devs give HoHe 0 damage outside of outburst

meanwhile hofi horb and lv are just fine

[atomic coral]

they took the term "burst dps" literally

[noble cobalt]

at least Elysia was partially saved from that embarassment of a dkey

[atomic coral]

it's the most exaggerated version of her p1 gameplay

[noble cobalt]

HLE came out soon after which restored Elysia's honor

[atomic coral]

you burst when you have enough sp in p1, in p2 you burst when your ari is full

[noble cobalt]

P1 valks with sp issues...

[scarlet sapphire]

The devs really wanted the Dryas of the world to pull Thelema leap supply

[abstract night]

Didnt hoh not have sp issues in like v2 when her ult was 75 or something?

Or am i imagining things

[noble cobalt]

these days in P2 the QTE immediately gives enough sp for ult

[scarlet sapphire]

That's all I can think of for HoH dkey design

[noble cobalt]

in P1 you have to work for your ult

[abstract night]

For GoI

[noble cobalt]

[atomic coral]

i think it was 100 then they raised it to 125,or maybe I'm thinking of something else

[abstract night]

That was probably it

I wasnt active then so idek

[scarlet sapphire]

Or maybe it was an attempt to sell whichever aop helps with ar recharge post-first use for wod

[abstract night]

SS sera
SS songqueop

But sera was 7.6

[noble cobalt]

I remember HoH initial reveal

[abstract night]

Sooo

[noble cobalt]

her animations were considered top tier

[abstract night]

When i first got her i fangirled everytime i ulted with her

[noble cobalt]

I think either PAWS or XDC has the best animations in the game now

probably XDC

[abstract night]

Aponia

No doubt

[noble cobalt]

there's like 4 animations in her kit

[glass nacelle]

Thelema is still best animation in game

No one can beat her

[noble cobalt]

we need stellar key valks to have top tier animations again

[abstract night]

I like lvs ult :(

[noble cobalt]

HoHe stellar ult is crazy

LV's is...

[abstract night]

Its cute

[gleaming imp]

I like HoH dkey ult just wish it had the arrow from because of you too

Like it’s a callback to that moment but it’s only half of said part so

[muted mauve]

HoHe literally feels unfinished.
It's missing the actual attack.

[noble cobalt]

ummm its a huge boom boom

also its an animation from because of you which excuses it from further critique

[gleaming imp]

Technically it is accurate to her p1 ult ending in a flash bang but like if they’re gonna do the thing from because of you don’t just do half of it and call it a day

[noble cobalt]

Kiana finger laser is the best stellar key ult though

[still condor]

it doesnt even go boom, she spawns the mirror and then flashbangs you

[noble cobalt]

imo
1- Kiana
2- Ely
3- HoRb
4- Luna

[glass nacelle]

All bad

[noble cobalt]

sure hohe stellar ult doesnt really feel impactful but... its from because of you

[abstract night]

Horbs just needs touchups

[still condor]

i like horbs
and the rest are just kinda there

idk why horbs uses her support form when shes locked into dps though

[abstract night]

Horb literally has no movement when shes holding the nuke thingy

[noble cobalt]

Actually both HoHe and HLE just flashbang you for their ults

neither feel impactful

[still condor]

its cause ely is chopped

[noble cobalt]

omg...

never

[abstract night]

I actually like hles ult
Its very pretty

Im just tired of ely

[glass nacelle]

Well all ely gameplay are annoying

[atomic coral]

hohe flashbangs you, hle hits you with the hi im cute attack

[abstract night]

-# 😉

[muted mauve]

That thing with the worst camera work known to the game?

Imagine replacing a 8-10/10 ult with a 4/10 one

[noble cobalt]

compared to her GoI sisters, HLE's ult is kinda... underwhelming

[gleaming imp]

Chopped and Ely in the same sentence

[noble cobalt]

PAWS and XDC ult is literal cutscene

[gleaming imp]

Her face card never declines

[abstract night]

U think her normal ult is 8-10/10?

[abstract night]

Dudus

[glass nacelle]

Both bad

[noble cobalt]

which one? kick ult or trio ult?

[gleaming imp]

I don't remember using hofin old ult

[abstract night]

Ohhh trio ult

[noble cobalt]

I dont think ive seen HoFi kick ult used like

ever unless its ER

[noble cobalt]

worst camera work is LV stellar ult

[muted mauve]

Points Finger - Cuts Camera to different angle - Angles to face - Cuts Camera to different angle - Shows blow travelling - Cuts Camera to different angle - Blow hits

The way that they have the blow rotate during travel (causing your eyes to naturally follow it to the left) and then they cut the camera focus to the literal opposite location on the screen (bottom right).

Genuinely pretty poorly done

[noble cobalt]

LV stellar ult is cute but

its such a downgrade to her p1 ult

LV ult went from bada$$ to uwu

[atomic coral]

don't worry heres her p3 ult

[muted mauve]

It is literally 1 continuos shot with the camera following the projectile's trajectory?

[smoky lintel]

P4 is where she's just cutting the world in half

[abstract night]

lvs new ult is so simplistic tho

HoRb got the worst animation out of the group. But only in terms of polishing..imo

[noble cobalt]

her P1/LoA ult is a lot better imo

[abstract night]

Thats fair

[muted mauve]

HoFin's stellar ult literally pushes your face to the very left and then the next frame the shot is bottom right.

There's no natural flow.

every single one of the 4 cuts doesn't flow well into the next.

[noble cobalt]

I don’t think it’s that bad …

Her finger laser is just really cool

[untold marsh]

From an animation perspective, one of the best ults in the game is still to this day AE's

[noble cobalt]

It’s a lot cooler than Luna reminding everyone that she’s in love with the captain for the 5000th time and whatever tf HoRb is doing in hers

[noble cobalt]

AE ult was ahead of its time definitely

[glass nacelle]

💧 💥

[abstract night]

Facts
Especially skins

Cerulean is so gorgeous

[muted mauve]

1st camera cut - Pushes from bottom right to left, curving upwards then down.
2nd camera cut - Start center and pushes to center down.
3rd camera cut - Starts right and moves left with slight rotation
4th camera cut - Starts bottom right and moves top left.

It's just making your eyes dart across the screen

[glass nacelle]

If only they can make another thelema tier
Ded

[noble cobalt]

And if sw is getting a divine key yes I wanna see her doing some crazy earth splitting laser with 5059383939 visual effects

Make stellar key ults less disappointing

[noble cobalt]

If only they could make another FoV tier

The fact that you can see FoV’s hp draining during her ult

Is such a niche but amazing addition

[abstract night]

Visual*

[glass nacelle]

I mean gameplay

[muted mauve]

Her original ult has her extend her bridal veil with wedding vow voicelines.

[noble cobalt]

I see

[noble cobalt]

Well yeah but she looked like a baddie doing it at least

LV stellar ult is like watching the HoH -> HLE animation downgrade

[abstract night]

Lv visual*

..well somewhat atleast lol

[muted mauve]

your graphic settings are so low

[abstract night]

…yeah

Heres the other two

[noble cobalt]

Giving HoHe two different shadow animations

And then not doing that with Rita

Truly the bait valk of all time

[abstract night]

Ritas great for dudu and wod

[noble cobalt]

Yeah but you can tell from her animations that XDC was soaking up the budget

[shrewd socket]

you say as if all other WoD valks have that

[noble cobalt]

Well all the other WoD valks were pre-HoHe

After HoHe had two different shadow animations I was like

Wow they’re totally gonna do this with WoD valks going forward

[shrewd socket]

why?

[noble cobalt]

Because thats pretty typical of them to do when they try out something new

Like JD had stellar outburst cancel and then most valks after her had it too

[nova osprey]

They should give sena a dkey with early outburst exit

[shrewd socket]

SImp doesn't have SO finisher

Vita doesn't have SO finisher

Sparkle doesn't have SO finisher

none of the LoA valks have SO finisher bc of how LoA SO works

[noble cobalt]

Rita, PAWS, LV, HoH:E, HoRb, XDC, HLE, JD

So I mean yeah SO cancel did become pretty common after it was introduced

[muted mauve]

Songque is still the only valk with a SO custcene

[noble cobalt]

Me thinking that future WoD valks will have two different shadow animations isn’t some crazy outlandish thought that has a decimal point chance of occurring

[shrewd socket]

HoHE dkey was not right after JDS release

[glass nacelle]

I thought rita only has 1 phantom animation

[magic gust]

I think it’s actually fine in the context… Kiana gets into a pose, her face clearly visible; cut to her face with rhythmic, zooming out, steps; zoom out to a much larger perspective, shot from roughly 2/3rds of the screen where one could then assume Kiana-chan to be and the beam comes from there to the left with the camera rotating to the target-location a little bit; and the last shot with roughly the same perspective as the initial set-up from the last to the hit target

yes, it’s not a directly “flowing movement”, but at least on me it works

[potent forum]

The animation looked very stiff to me back when I first saw it, also I think it'd work better if it was first the face shot and then the side torso one

[abstract night]

Nty

[magic gust]

so? (recutted Breath’s video)

[abstract night]

Hmm

[magic gust]

wait, it’s not properly loaded for some reason

huh?!

[smoky lintel]

It is for me it's just dc being weird

I also can't view my own Videos like ever

[magic gust]

oh

[shrewd socket]

kinda see the vision

both ways look good for me tho

[magic gust]

-# (obviously Kiana’s hand wouldn’t be in the position from the next step in the one before, but I can’t really do that with just remontage)

Wild West movies don’t fit as a reference to compare that I guess setting is too different and they focus more on the outcome than on displaying a cute girl

[abstract night]

Ohh u moved the scenes around
I think its just choppy with the 2nd scene since u already did that finger gun

[shrewd socket]

maybe if the hand was closer to her face in the first shot

[magic gust]

yeah, it doesn’t really work with that material
so if Kiana’s fingergun would be visible from front first, then side-view can’t have the arm-movement of drawing the gun charging the finger(? ); and if one shows face only in the first scene and then cuts to side-view to show the arm movement then… cutting back to front view would be kinda odd(?)

by the logic of things, they kinda have to do it the way they did, I think at least if one wants to display that

[shrewd socket]

checked the P1CH35 illust for reference but Kia a seems to have her arm extended

[magic gust]

omitting the front-view entirely though could have worked too

[magic gust]

Kiana stretches out her arm
Cut to her smiling face
~~Cut to Astral Express login screen ~~

[little bronze]

https://giphy.com/gifs/honkai-star-rail-meme-castorice-im-gonna-touch-u-83TkNHzasj6j3ymZzQ

[desert lily]

[solar surge]

it shouldn't be a surprise Kiana avoids the Star Rail
after all, she likes to skip combat training

[tawny bramble]

is this the max?

oops wrong channe;

[potent forum]

ah, thanks for actually editing it

[potent forum]

in my mind it'd be the latter(wait no the former). still, there probably exists a better kinda entirely new composition/animation hypothetically

[copper shale]

cant say oops wrong channel when u post the same thing in like 3 different channels

[somber egret]

[desert lily]

There's bleed mobi

[obsidian berry]

[glass nacelle]

lamp shill

[desert lily]

[glass nacelle]

Prob next cycle is 36 mobs

Bcs badum outfit banner is out

[desert lily]

[gleaming imp]

Badum fdd vita duo again? Or badum mei fdd?

[somber egret]

Badum HLE

[desert lily]

[gleaming imp]

As in mei badum hle?

[desert lily]

Isn't it Flux weather?

Should be Badum DPS

[obsidian berry]

Blood lust?

[gleaming imp]

I hope fdd vita duo keeps this boss let them have this

[somber egret]

Forgot we have new weather for 36 mobs

and I'm remembering my RL runs on Bloodlust 36 mobs

[desert lily]

It had FWS XDC FDD line up

[somber egret]

Nirv is still Badum FDD LP but RL is HLE Badum FDD

[desert lily]

HLE on Flux

[somber egret]

Flux is new and we don't have it yet.
I meant last Bloodlust 36 mobs

[desert lily]

Ah

That one was a bit of pain since you had to keep the buff up-

[next echo]

This is all I needed to know to only pull for Kianners in carnival tnx

[next echo]

Oops meant this

[steady coral]

Anyone has video essay guide explanation regarding the current card game event and any beginner friendly decks?

[obsidian berry]

just an event, figure it out urself

[steady coral]

To tell you how bad I'm on card game, the only successful deck i know is Self otk/ Self kms for Yu-Gi-Oh

Which unfortunately a thing you can't do for this event

[slate elm]

i know carv posted about the event back when it was in cn. maybe you can ask them when they're around

reactionary posts rather than informative posts mind you but i would imagine they would have ideas of what's more effective

[steady coral]

Until i have grasp/basic knowledge on this event, i think I'll keep play skip turns so my enemy would finish me off faster.

[slate elm]

up to you

[steady coral]

I think surrendering doesn't give you anything right?

[slate elm]

if you really need it, i can give my deck code but all i have with it are another essay of words

prob not

[steady coral]

Unfortunately my brain wasn't built to understand text guide but more into live practice, like in video essa/ guide

[tawny bramble]

how many luna weather so far in abyss?

im not exactly familiar with all the bosses

[desert lily]

Just two I believe

Well two so far

[tawny bramble]

if it appears more often i might need to pull her dkey hwhejeifjkfneje

also when is 8.8 cn beta?

[somber egret]

Next week

[prisma tartan]

its almost april

its possible that we gonna get supprise valk for next patch

[somber egret]

[lone grove]

She think she Jojo

Damn the way i just noticed it

[prisma tartan]

gojo

[lone grove]

What 😭

[prisma tartan]

i saw it

dont lie

[lone grove]

Oh

[prisma tartan]

https://tenor.com/view/spin-reisa-gif-13366099139139283031

[lone grove]

Well yes, it's just, i keep forgetting who hit this pose, so someone corrected me

Had to do it quietly

[main goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/honkai-impact-rita-jojo-rita-gif-14427064

[misty hazel]

Has that ever happened?
No new valk but there's a new elf/astralop

[rancid plank]

Arguably back in 4.3

Got Tesla zero and Molotov cherry dlc only

[muted mauve]

1.3 is the only patch with no new valk.

Augment cores were basically new valks given they were full kit reworks.

[rancid plank]

I mean by that logic isn’t a dkey a new valk

[atomic coral]

i mean dkeys are just new moves added to an old kit, augments had entirely different movesets

[quasi glen]

Not as big of a change as augment but close enough if you want to stretch it

[muted mauve]

1 or 2 new moves vs an entire new kit.

[rancid plank]

I mean new moves new skills new teammates (well, hofi aside lmao) new field rotations

At most it’s a difference in degree

Not kind

[muted mauve]

New Field rotations is a bit of a exaggeration.

HoFin in SO just gets to do her weapon + combo rotation once more.
Ely in SO just gets to use her shadow attacks at the start of the normal atk sequence.
HoRb in SO just gets one NA only rotation.
Luna in SO just presses ult once at the start of the rotation.

Augment Cores outright changed the character's playstyle.

[fervent hinge]

https://tenor.com/view/caesar-zeppeli-jojo-gif-26500517

[lone grove]

[muted mauve]

Current guesses for this year after this patch.

8.7 - Part 1 (Mei)
8.8 - None
8.9 - Part 1
9.0 - Part 2 (Senadina + Dreamseeker AOp)
9.1 - Part 1
9.2 - Part 1

We know they've been working on Seele since she got design changes on the last livestream so she should be this year.

Fu Hua and Bronya should also be getting new suits soon since they have yet to get a P2 one, tho I'm expecting atleast one of them to be New Year (9.3).

9.1 is probably that one Part 2 Kiana for the 10th anniversary.

[rancid plank]

Maybe it’ll be WS Kiana so I can have a full Kiana team

[muted mauve]

I'd say either RoO or new ring.

[shrewd socket]

KianaKianaKiana

[slate elm]

I hope you're only referring to kiana kiana kiana. Maybe add a fourth K for kiana elf too lol

but be careful that this can unintentionally overlap with the acronym for ku klux klan. idk if this can overlap with rule 3 if anyone around is sensitive about that. I know i'm being ridiculous but still something to be mindful of publicly imo

[shrewd socket]

[shrewd socket]

...Ki³?

[slate elm]

yeah maybe that's better haha

[shrewd socket]

[rancid plank]

Kiana impact 3

Ofc she’s gotta be fire or lightning so I can run Kiana elf

IG grail would also be fine as long as she’s HlE style grail that only needs 1 symb

[main goblet]

new ring in 2026

i think hoyo forgor

[muted mauve]

there's meant to be 12

[main goblet]

yeah but theres no hint on the next one 😔

[limpid glacier]

We are proably gonna get a new World star char first and a LoA char

Hoyo please gimme a loa char

[shrewd socket]

yet

[limpid glacier]

Best ring but has the least chars

[main goblet]

yea sure...

[shrewd socket]

i mean it all comes to eventuality

[rain isle]

Youyun awawa

So adorable

[twin dune]

i wonder what ring will she suport

considering there s an operator for every ring already it might be a new ring but to get the op. before the valk...

weird either that or she s an all rounder

[desert lily]

Possibly a Songque replacement

[vale granite]

Can't be new ring, we don't have supps for it

[vale granite]

Most likely, ye

[desert lily]

But of course we'll have to see

[limpid glacier]

Yea we would have have to get some ??? tags first

[atomic coral]

unless they drop a new ring and they're like "btw these valks are suddenly compatible, alright see ya"

[desert lily]

New ring = throw two roo with it

[muted mauve]

3rd day of the event. Bronya joke count

• Overworked: 2
• Bunny Overworked: 1
• Lost Moto License: 2
  

[desert lily]

[muted mauve]

• Another Kira singing joke

get new materrial ffs

[magic gust]

that’s been five in total

after the fifth, they can drop 67

alright, I’m so sorry

[muted mauve]

[desert lily]

[gleaming imp]

They just used this joke in 8.6 Rita event

[desert lily]

They're not original

[rain isle]

:HoRBheavythoughts:

[gleaming imp]

Cant they alternate between Cecilia simp joke and bad singing voice joke for Kira instead of just repeating one joke

[rain isle]

I applaud Kira for keeping up with the grind ngl

[ember locust]

Kira on her idol way :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BM-Yf-DXhMM

[muted mauve]

I think it hurts the writting when the devs make a event praising Kira's tenacity in trying to arrive at her goal without taking shortcuts.

And then they go and make fun of her voice in very single one of her appearances.

[still condor]

Work hard to achieve your dreams except you'll never be better than you are and everyone will continue to make fun of you

[slate elm]

yeah in all seriousness, it's a bit sad to see her reduced to a one or two trick gag

but alot of these events are just filler to me so i'm not too bothered for now

Meanwhile I don't know how I feel about Bronya's driving gag

I feel everytime i hear about it, it gets darker and darker lol

like recently in the p2 hub she was talking about doing deliveries as a side job and running into trouble with her driving once

[muted mauve]

It's a reference to a meme.
One of the devs also had a book about becoming a delivery driver in their desk in one of the dev videos.

[slate elm]

oh i see lol

[potent forum]

I think another kiana will feel like a bloat especially in the current part 1 fever

[desert lily]

Possibly a Seele

[potent forum]

it seems part 2 needs p1 to finance itself, and not sure we'll see that change

[muted mauve]

The dates are actually pretty well lined up.

[desert lily]

[muted mauve]

Just noticed I accidentally copied one of the patch values over the year

[desert lily]

[abstract night]

Whats a patch value?

[muted mauve]

8.7

[abstract night]

OH

Yeah lol i noticed that

[muted mauve]

9.0 is Difeng Arc ending (with 9.1 possibly a EX chapter).
9.0 is also the summer patch.
9.0 will be trust.

[long forum]

Pleaaaaase give us the Sena goddess skin playable in 9.0 it would be so cool

[prisma tartan]

[stark hawk]

do I need to get my affixes?

[obsidian berry]

8.7 gonna be our year
Yeh no we just have p1 valk and no valk next patch

[ember locust]

LMFAO I have 50 more ATK XD

[naive briar]

[stark hawk]

I always forget to unlock dkeys

bettir

[ember locust]

☠️☠️ Welp

I miss at least 2 DKs plus syns so yeah I'm cooked

[stark hawk]

affix still trash

missing like 20 atk

[gleaming imp]

I'm missing 40 atk from lack of dkey syncs

[abstract night]

Wow u got all other dkeys?

Congratsss

[gleaming imp]

Yes

[abstract night]

Im missing 70 atk

[gleaming imp]

I was only missing xy sword before but with 8.4 I got it

[abstract night]

Xy sword, fenghuang flower, AF, syncs

[stark hawk]

idk I need ref ig

[somber egret]

waw rl myriad

[stark hawk]

how to have damaj

[gleaming imp]

No SS CX?

[stark hawk]

only teri teri

[gleaming imp]

Oh

[gleaming imp]

Do you have 4S kiaelf?

[stark hawk]

I was considering trying

but it's only tdm?

[smoky lintel]

Kia elf for phys

[stark hawk]

[gleaming imp]

Oh I forgot Mei isnt lighting

[stark hawk]

when I checked I only saw 12% tdm

[desert lily]

Mei is physical

[gleaming imp]

Do you have 4S PB?

[stark hawk]

I'm not whel like froot

[desert lily]

Try Sera if you have her

[smoky lintel]

4* PB is like barely 1% better than DS, if you only have Teri than maybe try DS. DS should generally be better unless you need the initial Ari

[stark hawk]

tf is sera gonna do

[smoky lintel]

Haven't played the boss yet so idk

[stark hawk]

DS no ap

[desert lily]

18% crit DMG

[smoky lintel]

Yeah thought so

[stark hawk]

crit dmg wher

[abstract night]

18% phys dmg in SO
18% cdmg

[stark hawk]

it'swod you pepegas

I'm pepega

[abstract night]

Also +2.5(up to 5.0) for each HSS character

[stark hawk]

unconditional

[abstract night]

Which is just HoH and Dudu

[stark hawk]

there are no shadow derp characters in my team

[abstract night]

Oh yeah and HLE

[abstract night]

At ss

[smoky lintel]

She has some general phys buffs but if you're missing Ari then she won't do shit for you yeah

[stark hawk]

[abstract night]

Badum evasion central can work right?

[smoky lintel]

Well is there anything to Eva spam on this boss without major time loss ? I have no idea haven't touched it yet

[abstract night]

Oh. Yeah okay nvm

[stark hawk]

also dreamstinker is not an option either

[abstract night]

I just evasion spammed on tank in MA it was really funny
I got to use sera and everything

[smoky lintel]

SSS doesn't really do shit, boss ain't typeless

[abstract night]

24 inital ari? Nawww
Embrace 12 consecutive evasions

[stark hawk]

by non-elemental they mean typeless?

the fuck hoyo

[smoky lintel]

Yes bad translation

[stark hawk]

holy shit

[somber egret]

no Chenxue is a pain

[desert lily]

No Chen = demoot to sinful

[clear vigil]

[stark hawk]

i'm not gonna go mald for +1 eepi time

[desert lily]

Was wondering why my Mei’s attack was low

Her mfing weapon has the lowest attack

[abstract night]

And so does dudu and songque

[desert lily]

[abstract night]

But they get more crt.!!

[desert lily]

HoRb is equal to FWS and many others

[still condor]

Less atk just for them to want an aop for crits anyways

[desert lily]

Yes

[abstract night]

Yeah but HoRb doesnt need extra crt

Crits automatically

[desert lily]

You need to Ult though or else some will be ice DMG

[abstract night]

But why wouldnt u ult for more dmg

[desert lily]

Nobody would skip it

[stark hawk]

how slow is my p1

[abstract night]

Oh my.

[shrewd socket]

i suck

[obsidian berry]

P1 is dead by 920

[stark hawk]

shouldnt it be at least like 922

[gleaming imp]

I usually end at 924/925

[obsidian berry]

Thats fps issue

[stark hawk]

mobs dej at 986

[obsidian berry]

[somber egret]

Ohhh do you have HLE ?

HLE good here than FDD

[stark hawk]

[somber egret]

she can Stellar Drain during transition

[stark hawk]

stellar drain

I dont remember lacking ap

[desert lily]

Very speedy set up

[stark hawk]

what ass op

[abstract night]

Damn im losing by 16 points

[stark hawk]

how

[abstract night]

I kill at 905

[desert lily]

I kill at 925

[stark hawk]

your D big?

[abstract night]

Rl..

[desert lily]

519

[abstract night]

Na rl

[stark hawk]

same

[desert lily]

It's 519

I'm at 830

[stark hawk]

the only plausible way I could think of saving time is if there were some dum transition stuff again

or are there secret rat strats already

(as in not so secret )

[desert lily]

WA before rice Cake spawns then have the BA from WA hit her so you can have 300 sp when you QTE Mei back in

[stark hawk]

[desert lily]

[stark hawk]

?

I see dreamsneaker with same score secret tech wher

I doubt that they can have buffs up for frontloaded damage in p2

[desert lily]

Getting recording ready without lagging

[gleaming imp]

Basically what I did was on SO was switch to badum then ult then switch to cora2 ult then switch to mei then do her thing and win

As in like if you're on mei during start of SO switch to badum immediately

[shrewd socket]

wher my fps

[stark hawk]

[atomic coral]

got this with badum hle ds

[desert lily]

Same

[stark hawk]

you were talking about hle

[atomic coral]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UDIyrvuAEo

here's mine

[desert lily]

You can do the same with FDD though HLE is faster since you just qte her in

[vale granite]

Rare jahjab ref

What does XDC score here with DS/S Sera in Nirv btw

I feel like my 786 is too low

Cuz I'm 9th alr iirc xdd

[desert lily]

[stark hawk]

great framerate

[desert lily]

I would score better if it wasn't so shit

[stark hawk]

I guess I want to hit with weapon active

or rather followup

[desert lily]

Tbf I probably should be scoring better with this but

[stark hawk]

I just noticed we're in cn gameplay

[desert lily]

[still vine]

nah what is this

this is somehow the #1 in my bracket so far

[desert lily]

[shrewd socket]

how much

[still vine]

i think it was like 726, but i'm also in a3 again because i had nothing to use last cycle

[copper shale]

nice cn gameplay

[still vine]

yes

[somber egret]

[steady coral]

Any new info?

[still vine]

[steady coral]

Since I won't be expecting surprise new valk, lmk if there... Uh new costume or something?

[still vine]

i mean there's whatever this is

[untold marsh]

Well the teaser said it's an outfit

[still vine]

i see

[dreamy pendant]

Wait I just realized, no free dk?

[abstract night]

Free dk.?

[dreamy pendant]

Didn’t they give a box where you could chose a dk last year?

I swear I remember that being the case

See?

[untold tree]

i dont remember that being for cny...?

[dreamy pendant]

Wasn’t 8.4 cn new year?

Nope, nevermind

[untold tree]

no last cny was badum

8.1 looks like

[dreamy pendant]

Am missing only one dk and it’s not in the bp shop so am desperate

Thus why I asked

[untold tree]

is it xy sword

[dreamy pendant]

Ye :c

[untold tree]

hoyo loves gatekeeping us from xy sword lol

[dreamy pendant]

I can see that unfortunately, dam hoyo

[main goblet]

they used to give it on some annis but this one doesn't have
i want brick but atp it might just be in reserve

[main goblet]

not its channel but can i know the disturbance for this

[still vine]

475

[steady coral]

Seems like Paws getting outfit

[desert lily]

It can't be

[steady coral]

Or the chain sword valk

[desert lily]

PAWS isn't four stars

[steady coral]

What's a 4 stars?

[desert lily]

The stars represent letters

[steady coral]

That seems fits Paws

[desert lily]

Well not necessarily if I find the CN pronunciation

[steady coral]

Oh yeah

[dreamy pendant]

Seems like a checker pattern like one in chess or one in races in the outfit and a loading symbol with sort of feathers?

Genuinely have no clue

[steady coral]

Who else in part 2 valk fits 4 letters in chinese?

Cuz i don't think they would make a costume for part 1 valk anymore at this point

[desert lily]

I mean Haps pointed out if you looked closely enough, you can see drill hair

[main goblet]

putting this here

[desert lily]

Yeah

[steady coral]

What does the circle means

[desert lily]

The ones with four letters

[main goblet]

the ones with 4 letters

yeah

[steady coral]

Oh i see

[desert lily]

Can really only assume it's for Silverwing but who knows

[steady coral]

No way, out of the trio she's the one who haven't got her P2 variant yey

[dreamy pendant]

Isn’t this Bronya grey hair color?

[desert lily]

Yes

[steady coral]

[desert lily]

Then again many characters have grey hair

[dreamy pendant]

Ehhhhh, idk

It’s slightly darker so it might not be her after all

[main goblet]

i wanted to say vita but she would need to dye her hair to be lighter
thats if the grey is hair like everyone suggests

[dreamy pendant]

Considering the loading symbol maybe Prometheus?

She has darker hair than Bronya so could be possible no?

[desert lily]

Her hair is green

[main goblet]

loading symbol? left image?

[main goblet]

its greyish teal

[smoky lintel]

I mean dying hair with a skin shouldn't be that far from the reality ig ? I'd like it

[desert lily]

[main goblet]

yeah

[dreamy pendant]

Idk, whatever this is

[main goblet]

that's fair

[desert lily]

I mean both Bronya and Promy have the same tech style

[main goblet]

i just can't unsee the helia hair pieces on that even if it's not helia related 😭

[steady coral]

I assume paws cuz the white hair strands and mech loading logo

[dreamy pendant]

Same

Oh maybe it’s hers then

[desert lily]

位面武器·失序时空

PAWS has more than four

[main goblet]

yeah

[smoky lintel]

Paws skin would be goated, but she ain't 4 letters 💔

[steady coral]

Putting aside the character, what will this costume be? Gacha, freebie or b chips?

[desert lily]

It's either bronya or Teri

[main goblet]

ppl suggested bronya
because they see drills
i don't see it tho

[smoky lintel]

We dunno

[steady coral]

Too early i guess

[main goblet]

possibly free

but not confirmed

since they give out event fits

[desert lily]

We'll have to see when Beta v2 is out

[smoky lintel]

Yeah we didn't get any other skin teaser and normally 1 skin is free so

Maybe

[main goblet]

well, fits in events

[steady coral]

Yeah i don't get the hair drill part here

There's nothing resembles drill from the image

[rain isle]

Oeuf

[desert lily]

I'm just mentioning what Haps said

[smoky lintel]

The skirt reminds me of a p2 valk I just can't quite picture who

[desert lily]

Thelema?

[smoky lintel]

Oh yeah I think hers looks similar

[steady coral]

All i can think of is either Helia or the chain sword Valk

Yeah thelema

[desert lily]

Well if only it was for them

[main goblet]

unironcally i was gonna suggest aop skin and i remembered sera
but hair colour don't match and neither does the drip design
also we don't have aop skins yet
i also dunno her cn name

welp there's like a week or 2 for beta anyways

[desert lily]
