Doing that aslaug tmb

narrow heron
#

I got AE and FR cuz I liked them and they were in the HoT guide page recommended team, but I guess everyone can use AE anyways she’s everywhere I look at in guide pages (i know these guides are outdated, just saying she looks universal)

abstract sequoia
#

oh, and you have wep?

ancient needle
sweet flax
#

Mag pri lol

ancient needle
abstract sequoia
#

that might be the biggest issue..

sweet flax
abstract sequoia
#

maybe something with eva CD can help

sweet flax
#

I'll record a run probs

narrow heron
#

So back to my very first question, I was told apho Bronya’s best stigmata set consists of only 2 of her set
Which piece slot is the one for the third different piece? Or is it variable?

sweet flax
#

After food tho, me hangy

spiral badge
#

Nex TB and then HoTr's M piece

narrow heron
#

I’ll make t and b first then, if by the time I’ll make them an opportunity arises to get the HoTr M i’ll get that and if not I’ll just make her M piece

ancient needle
#

Keep in mind that HoTr M is in BP rn, and you can convert up to 5 new balls to old ones in the next patch

sweet flax
#

Technically you could get hotr m via vintage

narrow heron
#

I can get 2 more balls from this patch

#

And 5 more new balls from next patch

#

Should be good

#

Wait

sinful hatch
#

what is stronger in buffs the kiana elf or the travvler p2 ? for p2 teams

spiral badge
#

just in case, when crafting T and B i encourage you to wait until you have enough resources for both at once rather than rushing one or the other first

narrow heron
#

It needs 10 balls

#

That’s not gonna be enough is it lol

spiral badge
sinful hatch
#

yes

spiral badge
#

what ranks are they? That should also be specified. DS can reach SS while Kiana's main rank is 3*

#

but anyway it's situational whether you want DS or Kiana elf

sinful hatch
#

kiana elf is S and dreamseeker SS

narrow heron
#

Unless they add the trio to the legacy shop down the line

spiral badge
#

DS you'll mainly value for her higher initial ARI to go into outburst sooner

they also provide slightly higher damage outside of outburst

spiral badge
#

Kiana elf you'll mainly value for fire and lightning dps teams that don't need to go into outburst asap but wants to deal higher damage during outburst

ancient needle
#

While most ELFs are S-ranks the thing that actually matters is their stars

narrow heron
#

Bella, Tesla ZERO, Elf Elysia
Which one is better?

haughty elbow
#

none of them are really used ever

spiral badge
#

what kind of objective do you have for them?

narrow heron
#

Do elfs ever get used?

haughty elbow
sweet flax
#

both at 3* min

spiral badge
#

they do but mostly as f2p efficient options nowadays rather than best options (aside from niche scenarios)

#

but i mean you are casual

#

so your priorities aren't really meta related. We may not need to go down this rabbit hole lol

narrow heron
spiral badge
#

right but they are all used for different things strictly speaking

narrow heron
#

Yeah I just noticed each is for a different element

#

Since I Have HoT Bella she be good for her

sweet flax
#

hot would prefer kiaelf

narrow heron
#

While HoHe uses astraops instead of an elf

narrow heron
spiral badge
#

t0 is for physical. can apply bleed. two generations behind via durandal > p.bunny

benares is for lightning. two generations behind klein > kiana

elf elysia is prob the most generally best out of the three but only because she has more utility in gathering and maybe switch cdr too? idr. She's mainly for ice. no longer recommended because meta ice is all in p2 nowadays

narrow heron
#

The more down the newer the better it seems

spiral badge
#

loosely sure but the main one to consider is kiana elf really

#

meta wise ofc

sweet flax
#

kiaelf just has the most coverage

narrow heron
#

Can I keep the selectable box?

#

Like would the content get updated?

sweet flax
#

as long as there's no timer on the box, its permanent

spiral badge
#

kiana elf

  • covers fire and lightning mainly but also general elemental to a lesser degree
  • fast gather from the ult and also when the valk uses their combo attacks
  • also swap cooldown reduction
sweet flax
#

no, the content remains the same as when you got it

#

either way, all elfs are available, I doubt they are gonna put SOs in boxes anytime soon

haughty elbow
#

u could save it for when u have 3* since 4* costs more frags tho

granite brook
#

is ss theresa better than 3 star kiana elf for trio

spiral badge
#

i'm actually not sure yet

granite brook
#

ill try both then

spiral badge
#

nirv reference i'm seeing is still using ss songque prob for double ring strats

granite brook
#

at the very least kiana's first combo attack counts as resonsnace attack for ar regen

spiral badge
#

does it? resonance is for world star

#

it's the outburst thing with the marks and the detonators

#

but hofi has domain resonance which songque prob benefits

sweet flax
#

even 2* kiaelf is better for trio than teri

spiral badge
#

songque's first passive skill is also notable. gives a bit more ari on weapon usages

granite brook
wild forum
#

wait I see this correctly, I have to level EVERY single stigmata 3-set once to 25for the dorm to move them in?

sweet flax
#

4* kiaelf > songque > ss ds > 3* kiaelf >= sss teri > 2* kiaelf > ss teri = s teri for herrscher trio

granite brook
#

what abt ss teri

narrow heron
#

What are the things that I should never buy with astrites?
I assume I should always buy the stuff that refresh with versions like ET

granite brook
#

cuz of regen

sweet flax
#

nah I dont think ss teri is better than kiaelf

#

id say even sss teri is maybe comparable to 3* kiaelf

sweet flax
#

the stigmatas just appear as a figure moving around your dorm

narrow heron
wild forum
#

so them appearing doesnt change anything ok

sweet flax
#

ye, they just give you materials to build things in your dorm, same materials are purchasable with coins

#

you'll over time get them anyways, no point wasting resources into it

wild forum
#

yeah I was like "there is no way you go upgrade everything" when I read this

narrow heron
#

And the expeditions
I never looked at what I got from them tho

#

I mean not expeditions

#

Errands

wild forum
#

and more account wide stats up to dorm 45

narrow heron
#

For example it looks like buying sc metal or spatial lens using astrites is resonable since I don’t really find a good income source for them
While fluid alloy, we get 3 per day anyways

wild forum
#

28% ele and 6% total dmg and 85 atk is a crazy amount of lacking dmg

#

85 atk alone is similar to having no -> good refines almost on all 3

Also higher Dorm level increases the chances of getting crystals

or how often did the DK of the other chars rotate so far how long were the gaps usually?

we had no dkeys from 6.1 till 7.0 then till 7.8, then hohe in 8.1

Um should I tune it or nah?

wild forum
sweet flax

though I will say, every 4 patches seems to be the sweet spot, +- 1 patch

unlucky hohe I started game late for her key so she's now useless until her key reruns for P2

sweet flax
#

its still random, brick reran 2 patches after it released VelionaShrug

#

hofi dkey reran 3 patches later

wild forum
#

lets pray for 2 so its out while she's somewhat useful

#

so I see this correct I upgrade the dorm for them for more errand points?

okay so i accidentally pulled her on a random pull but im f2p so currently i only have 4/4 dkey hofi, vita, sparkle, helia, coralie and thelema (all 4/4) are any good with her

#

im also kinda new ive logged in for 90 days (most just being random daily reward collections)

rugged compass
#

Also kiana (badum) doesnt work without her wep as a dps like most valks

Yeah okay i type slow

wild forum
#

worth raising Coralie if I have badum?

ancient needle
wild forum
#

yeah its my only other currently, I get Helia as third char on monday

#

so I can run badum + helia + carolie until I get for example 8.2 character?

#

and then throw carolie as support in second group?

#

ok I got her wep to 45 and monday she is S rank as well

#

I upgraded her weapon and I get her stigmata next

ancient needle
#

RC is a bit better, but you can't track her buff duration

ok then I did find them but was confused as hek

they buff enough to make up not having a ring person in the team?

considering the 2385795 buffs they get just having one sitting in at level 1 even

dry python
#

Not like helia is doing anything for the team

wild forum
#

just existing gives the other massives buffs no ?

  1. Helia won't proc the leader skill cuz no Heavenly Shift/Omniscient Star
  2. Helia's buffs are mostly for Lightning

Hell naw

ancient needle

Ah

wispy aurora

Vita 35 stigmas and 50 wep?

#

sparkle is maxed

#

Badum - 65 wep and 35 stig or 50?

ancient needle
#

Lemme try with max gear ig
I'll also be using Songque instead of Sparkle

#

The diff between them shouldn't be big

haughty elbow
#

it should be
sparkle is type down

ancient needle
haughty elbow
#

but songque is already naturally better than sparkle

#

the type down just makes the gap bigger

#

its not like badum is img

ancient needle
haughty elbow

definitely better even without

frozen crypt

Its fine to level any valk you actually use up to 50, its dirt cheap up to that point

what is ala used for other than on vq

hotr is 4/4 yes?

i heard it can be used as a supportive set for a bleed team?, but ur only other option is lv and i suppose you already have her team and stuff

# glossy hemlock if im getting 2p ala which 2 should i get?

what kind of purpose do you have in mind? Keep in mind

  • bleed vill-v is coming up soon
  • we are still waiting for ||more next patch valk news who is bleed. It's unlikley but it's possible there might be a niche use there||

Do you already have 7T?

If you use aladdin set as a support, what off rate stigs do you have for each slot?

If you must pick now and have no further context then you may most consider M and B since the support effects are there.

Please do review these details on your own too.

damn thats rough

spiral badge

it's prob best if you delete it

#

we try to be mindful of how sensitive people can be about spoilers and well even a simple image can give some info of what character to expect in the story later if i have to be blunt

wispy aurora
#

Makes sense

spiral badge
#

i understand the game isn't the best about spoilers too (lol the whole valk menu) but that's the fault of the game and not on us

wispy aurora
#

Valk menu is wild for spoilers but you cant help that one

spiral badge
#

i suppose there's a bit of a gray line since you asked for how much longer left in the story and that can relate to crystal/time rate but

#

maybe a better way to ask is after you're done with some act or chapter

wispy aurora
#

Thats fair and understandable

spiral badge
#

my pin does go into considerations about this

#

i would just be parroting off of it

#

you're not giving me enough information either

#

i guess you already own horb but what rank is she? should i assume s0?

#

keep in mind you'll want to hold on to the elf boxes for now until we ge the free elf box later if you haven't unlocked the elf yet

wispy aurora
#

s0 Horb

spiral badge
#

you also don't need to spoiler that actually. While it does concern next patch stuff and it's better to be more safe than sorry, the kinda of things we're concerned about are actual new content

#

you don't have to delete it either. Now anyone backreading that bit will just think i'm crazy lol

wispy aurora
#

Ooops

#

Ah well

spiral badge
#

or wouldn't be able to follow to help pitch in their own thoughts

#

do you own any gacha astral ops already? and any niche meta part 1 teams that are well built?

wispy aurora
#

HORB is S0 but as we get the free elf and with these I should be able to make is 3 star

raw wraith
#

Help

spiral badge
#

the main idea of kiana elf is that she covers

  • p1 situations broadly, but p1 overall is now niche
  • p2 as a sidegrade over dreamseeker. Mainly for boosting fire and lightning elemental damage in outburst if you don't need to rush into outburst right away
    • DS has higher starting ARI so she can let you get into outburst sooner asap if you need to, and has slightly more damage outside of outburst
#

i already covered horb s2 in the guide already. Overall she's niche but also more exclusive/difficult to get. We have no idea what to expect of her in the future either, and i already covered speculations in that pin too.

wispy aurora
#

So S2 horb

spiral badge
#

up to you to decide

wispy aurora
#

Seems like free ranks for characters are a wiser decision

spiral badge
#

horb has less forseeable uses but possibly more difficult to get

3* kiana has more broader uses but can possibly be obtained from future spending events

#

it's a tradeoff overall. I don't have any strong opinions either way

#

just make sure you're done with rolls and have thought things through on both sides

wispy aurora
#

Im at 480 of the spending currency rn

#

so I can get all 6

#

But only need 5 for S2

spiral badge
#

you don't need all 6

#

yeah

#

so the rest can go to elf box

#

unless you want to consider anything else

wispy aurora
#

Seems like Horb x5 and rest of elf seems best

spiral badge
#

you don't have to decide right now

#

but i don't have any further arguments or considerations

#

you can hold out a bit longer in case more news from CN surfaces

#

but also don't hold out to the point where you forget about it

#

i know one person who completely forgot and let alot of potent annulons just completely expire

#

anyway i need to go now sorry

its up to you, though try to avoid doing what other people do and cope about a "horb dkey" as an excuse to pick her

it really depends on you meta wise this isnt worth in the slightest

#

pls spoiler that

#

and also dont advice people for things that are concidered not worth without more backround about how much they care about meta

#

people could lurk and actually think kiana is worth it

void axle
#

i mean, next patch were so good valk too

void axle
quick birch
#

she is still not worth it. especially if you cant guarantee her +weapon

low kestrel
#

i alr have her weapon

#

and stigamatas

quick birch
#

Stigamatas are craftable so this does not mean that much. Meta wise its not reccomended to get her, if its for waifu resons go for it. You just have to be aware of the consequencens that could face you like skipping another valk and so on

Not Giving Advice is better than Wrong Advice!

Hi Captain! Sorry to cut you off... AichanCry

Ai-chan recommends that you leave the advising to more experienced captains, but we appreciate your enthusiasm.

If you aren't sure if the advice you want to give is correct, please wait for others in the channel to answer instead. You wouldn't want to be responsible for someone making a huge mistake!

did you have a follow up question about this? Otherwise this really should go in #šŸ“ægacha-saltšŸ§‚. Otherwise some people may read this thinking it's ok to roll adv when it's actually heavily not recommended

This is a help channel and consequences of resource investment can be quite costly in this game

#

it takes a long time to regain the 28k crystals you guys are basically encouraging to dump

@low kestrel anyway hello. What questions do you have?

I'm not sure why you already have hofi weapon (dkey? or old weapon?) but keep in mind what the faq said about adv banners

#

rates are low and pity does not carry over. Expect to go the full 100 if you want to do this.

Do you have meta questions about hofi?

low kestrel

# low kestrel hofi will back any day? we have any information? i rlly wanted her

the only future information we have is in #šŸ”®cn-gameplay-discussion pins.

I don't think i've heard of any upcoming reruns so far

but she's quite old at this point and maybe you can expect her to become more available some other way in the future.

Can you explain to me why you really want her? From what i know about you, you do care about abyss performance and the meta, but pulling hofi would not be recommended meta wise

void axle
spiral badge
#

this 28k crystal cost will basically cause you to not be able to reliably pull the next new valk which will prob be more important to get than hofi at this point

void axle
spiral badge
#

yeah let's try to keep speculations to a minimum. I already mentioned the possibility so we can leave it at that

#

rather than saying you think, it's prob better to substantiate it. Login claimable valk seems unlikely but every year they do seem to give out a free herrscher. Of course there are other candidates too.

spiral badge
#

we kinda value providing information here and letting the person decide for themselves

low kestrel
void axle
void axle
spiral badge
# low kestrel ah i just like kiana, but not just that i rlly like the gameplay of hofi, is one...

in this current abyss she's a top option, yes.

but meta wise keep in mind of how popular she was back in the day. It's common for people to have her fully geared, ranked, and her teammates ranked at this point. So it's uphill to catch up on.

You should look up what her ranks do as well. It's mainly personal damage. At this point hofi can also be used as domain resonance support (for world star leaders) but her ranks will not help with that.

Furthermore you wouldn't really expect to use her too often strongly in the future. You can try checking the pins in #šŸ’gameplay-help for the abyss schedule.

#

you said you have her weapon earlier. Which weapon is it?

How about her teammates? do you have HoO and HoTr well geared already? And maybe ranked?

#

keep in mind you can always appreciate hofi in the tactics class menu too without owning her.

But if you understand all this and still really want her, and do not mind missing out on the upcoming valk, then it's up to you

Who should I use as my main team

The ones at lvl 80 are the valks I've been using

#

Rest of my roster

sweet flax
#

if so you could do sparkle lantern coralie

#

or teri lantern sparkle | sparkle lantern teri

amber temple
#

Especially the prism ones

sweet flax
#

oh you shouldnt be taking the forge weapons past lvl 35

#

also those valks are heavily reliant on their weapons to function properly SeeleBox

amber temple
#

Not even the ones the game recommends?

sweet flax
#

ingame recommendations are never updated and not accurate at times

amber temple
#

I'm used to the other hoyo gachas characters working well with non sig weapons decently enough

sweet flax
#

ye which is why we tend to mention throwing out all knowledge from those games

haughty elbow
amber temple
#

AhgatorSits

sweet flax
#

unfortunately, in hi3 especially now, character kits and utility are locked behind the weapon

haughty elbow
#

so missing gear is harsh

amber temple
#

Oh that sucks

sweet flax
#

you can get away with it on some supports, but for the most part its a huge blow

amber temple
#

At least there isn't a 50/50 to loose

sweet flax
#

ye, that's the only downside, you need to pull valk + weapon

amber temple
#

Have to force people to spend somehow

sweet flax
#

not necessarily

#

more established accounts actually prefer skipping some valks

#

making rolling for future ones more easier

amber temple
#

Oh interesting

sweet flax
#

and some valks have no value to rolling them on release

#

with replacements/alternatives being available at a later time

amber temple
#

Would you say the ones I have gotten are decent?

sweet flax
#

you have gotten arguebly the 3 easiest valks to skip HimekoLMAO

amber temple
#

I've been playing off and on for a year so I don't know much

sweet flax
#

quantum in this game is very notorious for being niche

haughty elbow
#

they are the easiest 3 KianaDumb

amber temple
#

Sparkle is why I came back to play the game

sweet flax
#

sparkle is fine, she's good now but not when she released

#

since she has heavenly shift tag

#

honestly this is gonna be a bit controversial but you could argue a case for trying to pull sparkle weapon when it comes in 2 weeks iirc

amber temple
#

Ooo it's coming back already?

sweet flax
#

ye

amber temple
#

Didn't she just rerun?

sweet flax
#

technically it would be 8 weeks since her last banner when she reruns

#

hoyo in the end decides how to rerun valks

amber temple
#

I'm so used to the other hoyo games taking forever to rerun characters

haughty elbow
#

theres not many chars to rerun in this game

#

because 90% of the cast is free

haughty elbow
#

so a lot of the times u see the same chars rerun

amber temple
#

Interesting

amber temple
sweet flax
#

anyways

#

a nice way to get your account to catch up would be to save for a future valk + her weapon, but if you really want to, you could go for sparkle weapon

amber temple
#

Should I try to get the current Kiana then? I'm at 40 pulls left till guarantee

sweet flax
#

how many crystals do you have

amber temple
#

And 10 on the weapon

amber temple
sweet flax
#

save those crystals

#

imo you should try for the valk next patch instead, and you can use sparkle to support her

amber temple
#

Ok who's that gonna be?

sweet flax
amber temple
#

Ah ok

For beginnners basically anything works but once you get your first p2 S rank it will most certainly replace her

Advice on getting JDS's equipment if i got her from discounted 10 pull

sweet flax

and even if she is on one, you wouldnt get her gear

the special valk start supply

starter supply?

#

no dont pull on starter supply

raw hamlet
#

yeah, i did the 30 percent off 10 pull for fun

sweet flax
raw hamlet
#

do i pull weapon now that i got her

sweet flax
#

no

#

you'd use her as a support in loa anyways and she doesnt need her weapon for that

#

just craft her stigmata set at a later time

raw hamlet
#

okay thanks

sweet flax
#

do you have any crystals saved up?

raw hamlet
#

like 15k ish

#

but i dont mind topping up

sweet flax
#

ok not a bad start, lets hold off on spending for now, see how many crystals you can get by end of badum banner, most likely you'd save till next patch anyways

did you already do the discounted 10 pull on badum banner?

only ranking up to SS is available right now. Need to clear chapter 4 of part 2 story for it

sweet flax
amber temple
#

Can't destroy the seed thingy fast enough

sweet flax
#

you'd have to record a run tbh, often times you are playing your valks wrong (though in your case, lack of gear is more likely than not the main factor)

amber temple
#

It's probably both

#

I mainly button mash in games like this and try to do the combos but I probably don't know the most optimal way to play the characters I have

sweet flax
#

that's probably the main culprit

#

realistically speaking you shouldnt be on lantern and coralie for more than 5 seconds combined per rot

amber temple
#

Yeah I'll try it out with Coralie and try to get her up a little bit

sweet flax
#

do you already own her weapon?

#

since its free

amber temple
#

I think my biggest issue is that lantern has that green crossbow thing

sweet flax
#

shouldnt be a big deal since lantern just qtes in, hold atk, ult if available, switch out HimekoLMAO

amber temple
sweet flax
#

sure her buffs suck without her weapon, and personal dmg is negligible, but she'll be replaced sooner rather than later

sweet flax
amber temple
sweet flax
#

jokes aside, investing into coralie is a good idea anyways

#

see if you can get her to SS sometime soon since that's a really good upgrade

#

and use lantern as your dps for this abyss, since sparkle deals less damage to img enemies

amber temple
#

I keep getting her on the banner

sweet flax
#

coralie is farmable with asterite

amber temple
#

Oh she is?

sweet flax
#

ye

amber temple
#

I'll probably do that when I get more asterite then

#

Ok I'll try to get her to 80 and lvl the corresponding skills

#

can get up to 25 per week

but im ngl, seeing that you have a 333 combo meter

#

something is very wrong SeeleBox

#

who are you using as dps

amber temple
#

Coralie like you said

sweet flax
#

probably not applying buffs properly then, what do you do on sparkle and lantern

amber temple
#

I don't know which is probably my problem then and just me having skill issues

sweet flax
#

:p

#

on lantern you just wanna qte in, hold atk, ult if available, switch out

#

on sparkle you want to qte in, weapon skill, ult if available, switch into coralie

amber temple
amber temple
sweet flax
#

yoyo? you mean her weapon icon? then ye there will be a white outline which is the enhanced weapon attack

amber temple
#

This icon

sweet flax
#

yep

#

if you qte in with sparkle, it will light up the weapon icon

#

which does this move

amber temple
#

Yeah I do that as much as possible

sweet flax
#

also, dont qte every time it lights up, only qte when your buffs run out

amber temple
#

Could it be because her stigmata isn't at 50?

sweet flax
#

whose?

amber temple
#

Sparkle

sweet flax
#

which one isnt lvl 50

#

and what level is it

amber temple
#

Two of them they're lvl 45

#

The first and third ones

sweet flax
#

it shouldnt make that much a difference, its definitely not the reason you arent clearing

amber temple
#

Also the dimension is at 329 which I don't know what that does but might be the issue

sweet flax
#

329 is pretty low

#

exalted is 460+

sweet flax
#

all imaginary enemies have that

amber temple
#

Cause otherwise I'd be good

sweet flax
#

you have to break its shell to expose the seed, then kill the seed before the shell reforms

Not for that enemy

activate it with coralie first so she can put the reso marks
