i guess for er too but i still had a lot of units i had but didnt unlock it yet, you know cuz of keys

shadow gyro
#

yeah
follow the asterite shop pin

frosty kernel
#

hmm

spiral badge
#

VBm Coralie valk card can also be obtained from early part 2 story if you haven't picked that up yet

frosty kernel
#

yeah i got the priority done

#

well except for coralie ofc still on ss 2

spiral badge
#

oh disregard what i said then but yeah keep at it

shadow gyro
#

work on her first then slowly unlock the a ranks u don't have

#

and u can rank the rest to s for dorm levels

frosty kernel
#

already bought it this week, i guess the second priority its to grab sc metals. You know for ely too

frosty kernel
shadow gyro
#

👍

frosty kernel
#

this worth to buy or no?

#

3 tickets is kinda good ngl

shell basin
#

It’s one of the best deals

#

Either second best after monthly card or best, idr which, but either way it’s a lot

frosty kernel
#

ok i grab it then

#

but damn it feels like i prolly can only afford to get only ely on the first day

shell basin
#

There’s a free 10 pull but yeah your crystal count seems a little rough. You could consider doing more story grinding if you have time

frosty kernel
#

though i calculate it i can get to 22k till the banner

frosty kernel
shell basin
#

Not like I have any room to talk tho I am a certified story slacker

#

Perils of knowing all the events before picking up the game

frosty kernel
#

i mean i kinda did know some ngl but just missing some details of the story

rose holly
#

Do you have any pity pushed?

#

Do you have any ER valks unlocked?

#

Do you have some collection in ER left to fill out?

frosty kernel
#

also btw on ER to unlock all content freely, you only need to clear chapter 1 right?

rose holly
#

chapter 2 I think

frosty kernel
rose holly
#

If you are running out of valkyries to unlock for ER with the weekly key, look into war treasury

frosty kernel
#

i mean..

rose holly
#

Yeah that's like

#

600-700ish crystals per valk here

frosty kernel
#

its good but i need to do the story tho thats the thing

rose holly
#

I believe you can do it :>

frosty kernel
#

elysian realm is on like chapter 27-28 right, i am still at 23

#

and i dont wanna rush it

#

the dilemma..

slim blaze
#

kolospain?

rose holly
#

It's ruight after chapter 24 actually

#

Well I just got to chapter 24 and finished it, it said that I should go to ER now

frosty kernel
#

oh well i guess i could do it then

rose holly
#

Plus you should be able to make sense of the story regardless

frosty kernel
#

thought this was the one

rose holly
#

nvm after chapter 25

frosty kernel
frosty kernel
rose holly
#

it says this at the end of chap 25

frosty kernel
#

this is where i stop, i was legit grinding the story for the first 2 weeks but stopped on this one

rose holly
#

the best ones yet

frosty kernel
#

dont know why but i lost interest suddenly lmao

rose holly
#

23-25 were my favorite so far

frosty kernel
#

prolly cuz seele

rose holly
#

not only

frosty kernel
#

just upgraded my wep to 55, maybe now i can atleast go to floor 7

#

nvm still ass

shell basin
glad ice
#

yes, expedition excluded. and even the 1.5 part also not count. The achievement system is ancient anyway. there is no new achievement reward since i started playing in 2019
there is a stage at kolostein chapter which u can waste 10 stamina to watch scene/skip, that count for the 2000 normal stage achievement

oh shit abyss

#

mhmm i think im prett much safe

verbal kraken
#

Still don’t get it
For 10 tickets + 1000 swirl
F6 is 60+460=520
F7 is 70+490=560
Unless I don’t understand something

quick birch
#

F6 is the most efficient if you salvage the Crystalytes into ether fuel as well

verbal kraken
#

I see I see

#

Guess the crystals are useless now unless you want old stigs? Which aren’t really worth unless you want them for collect I assume

quick birch
#

there are a few for niche 0 sec SS MA strats but p2 is also getting more and more present in SS MA so you might be able to 0 sec before getting everything for said strats

verbal kraken
#

Also is there a use in P2 for the red spatial item thing

quick birch
#

none that i can recall rn so i dont think so

||when is the new elysia coming out?||

#

hi guys, im not a beginner beginner (lvl 67) but i still have pretty much no idea how this game works lol, what is the best herrscher of sentience team? i have been saving up to buy her from the shop and i finally can. i see some teams with elysia, some teams with herrscher of the void, but what is the best one? herrscher of sentience is my favorite character ever and im glad i can finally get her but i dont want her to be bad so i wanna make sure to give her everything she needs (i can buy either elysia or herrscher of the void i have enough for only 1)

ancient needle
#

Make sure it's unlocked in your inventory btw

rose holly
#

ty

#

3 to go

ancient needle
#

Ofc keep in mind that HoS is not recommended to build at all

fluid grove
ancient needle
ancient needle
fluid grove
#

but why did u say hos isnt reccommened to build? is she bad ? :(

ancient needle
#

Compared to modern gacha valks by a massive margin, yes

fluid grove
#

is there a newer version of fu hua that acts as a dps and is as cool as hos?

ancient needle
#

The newest Hua is Fenghuang of Vicissitude, but you ain't getting her anytime soon (too old to rerun and too new to be available through other means)

#

(she came out in 7.2)

#

Anyway, if you really wanna run HoS DPS ig you can farm up TA and VBm from the Asterite Shop (VBm has her sig weap available in Part 2 story btw) and run them as supps for her

#

VBm's sig stigs are craftable too, and she'll be very nice to have as a filler in Part 2 teams in general

fluid grove
#

sorry but could you say the entire words cause i have no idea what vbm means or ta

ancient needle
#

Terminal Aide 0017 and Valkyrie Blastmetal
You can refer to the glossary in the pins in the future

fluid grove
#

oooo ok ok

#

what about mobius? is she better than hos?

ancient needle
#

Not by much, can't really compare them cuz they do different things

#

One is BIO Phys while the other is MECH Lightning

fluid grove
#

hmmmmm

#

so which one do you think i should get

ancient needle
#

Both options aren't good at all, it's hard to answer TeriDerp

#

If your only goal is to improve Abyss/MA performance I suggest you run teams from here:

#

!faq fhm

small willowBOT
fluid grove
#

do you think they will add more good characters to the shop soon, like the war treasury thing

ancient needle
ancient needle
fluid grove
#

but i see recently they removed giving the purple stuff to the returnees

ancient needle
#

Oh, you're a returnee?

#

Yeah, saying that lvl 67 is not beginner beginner makes sense then

fluid grove
#

yess i have phases where i play for a month then uninstall then come back 5 months later etc

ancient needle
fluid grove
#

oh i see

ancient needle
fluid grove
#

i think my account is from 2022 or 2023

ancient needle
#

I mean, maybe consider making a new acc then? Maybe you're quitting because you aren't getting a remotely decent beginner experience

#

(the returnee event is terrible)

ancient needle
fluid grove
#

but then i would lose alot of characters

ancient needle
#

All of them should be farmable atp (and they aren't valuable at all performance-wise)
You can show your valks + weaps + stigs to be sure

fluid grove
#

i have li sushang, ss seele vollerei, herrscher of origin, azure empyrea hua and some other charas from events and stuff

ancient needle
#

Ah, the oldest one

fluid grove
#

seele is also one of my favorites

#

i love her and fu hua

ancient needle
#

Everyone you have except Origin is farmable through either War Treasury or the Asterite Shop

fluid grove
#

oh. well

ancient needle
#

And the Seele you have is obtained for free from Part 1 story

fluid grove
#

but still making a new account and going through all the story even with the skip button itll be very annoying

ancient needle
#

That's a fair point

#

How far are you into it?

fluid grove
#

wait how can i see that i forgot

ancient needle
#

No easy way

#

Just gotta go through the chapters and see what the last thing you completed was

fluid grove
#

ok so maybe i lied

#

im not that far in im only at under the falling sky 53%

ancient needle
#

Yeah, that's not much

#
  • if you're interested in the story you might want a refresher
fluid grove
#

no its too much for me to keep up with i already keep up with genshin and hsr

ancient needle
fluid grove
#

do you think i should just restart then? but i still really want hos

#

would i be able to get her if i restart, cause the new characters are not appealing to me .

ancient needle
#

Lemme check smth rq

#

Nvm

#

Well, a new acc would be a noticeably better experience overall imo (except the need to replay story), but getting HoS would take like 2 months unfortunately (you don't have consistent Ancient Legacy sources before lvl 70)

ancient needle
#

In the end it's up to you to decide, and keep in mind that you won't perform well in Abyss/MA unless you pull valks from gacha

#

They have to incentivize you somehow TeriDerp

fluid grove
#

ah idk i would just want a seele or a hua the new charas really dont look good to me and most of them arent really wearing anything ;w;

ancient needle
#

I haven't mentioned what gear you can run on HoS and TA btw, can you show me the stigs you have rn?

#

Looking at Marisa website and all I see is this?

abstract sequoia
#

invite link for it is in his channel description and every video description

round bough
#

if i have an account thats not too far in progression and wanna start playing again do i use that account or make a new one? doesnt have any good units

thick bolt
round bough
thick bolt
#

However if you see yourself as an on and off player you can just stick with the original one so you don't end up in a cycle of creating new accounts as well, just be aware of the tradeoffs

round bough
#

i think ill make a new one and stick to playing

thick bolt
round bough
#

also what r the %

thick bolt
#

1.5% rate for the S rank
saves about 10k+ crystals if you are rerolling, it just isn't a fun experience since it takes about ~20 mins per account and all upto rng

slender shore
#

What's up

thick bolt
#

Just a disclaimer if you aren't committed to reroll just play as usual and go save mode, not worth committing crystals

slender shore
#

Returning captain, should I just make a new account or continue this one?

thick bolt
#

New one is better unless you are attached cause of some rare collectible like Asuka or such

round bough
thick bolt
slender shore
#

Who should I farm on the new account tho?

thick bolt
#

Well crystals are going to be saved till the 23rd at the minimum unless you are open to rerolling (just scroll and read previous convo for details.

#

Otherwise just stick to the starter manual/book and daily missions as a guideline on how to progress

#

!faq fhm

small willowBOT
thick bolt
#

some useful starter teams you can eventually get to building

slender shore
#

23rd what? I'm not familiar with the events, I'm sorry

thick bolt
#

23rd Oct

#

New update new unit, current patch has no one suggested to be rolled left

slender shore
#

Ooohhh, alright

#

Thank you so much

thick bolt
#

Also if that seems like a long wait keep in mind that level 1-80 takes about a month and that's the point where you start needing gacha units, the teams linked above can last you till then quite easily

#

so it's a nice buffer period to get to know the game as well as farm gacha currency in advance

#

Channel pins have more guides linked which you can browse through whenever you find yourself needing anything

round bough
#

whos paws btw?

thick bolt
#

Planar Armament, the cyborg girl on the current banner. Helia v2

round bough
#

ah i see

slender shore
#

How about tutorials about the rotation? Do I need to worry about that?

#

Or just random bs go play style?

thick bolt
#

The game has a tactics class on game mechanics tutorials as well as unit specific tutorials that can give you the gist of it
From the bridge Attack -> Events -> Tactics

#

It's pretty much just random bs go though early on xd

#

feel free to experiment SirinHappeh

slender shore
#

Alright, thank you so much for your help

#

Appreciate it

round bough
#

oh yeah just curious how does rerolling save u 10k+ gems? like is the girl on banner a must pull or

#

also is it better to reroll now get the s rank, save or reroll on the banner on the 23rd?

thick bolt
#

The thing is if you are pulling the new unit next patch you'll also eventually get to collecting future units that support her
PAWS is one of the units that can currently support her so makes your life easier in the case you do get her, basically a time save

round bough
#

ohhh i see

#

whos the unit btw on the 23rd who paws supports?

thick bolt

#

It's a new Elysia, the pins there have the details

round bough
#

oh fr? i love elysia i didnt know she was getting a new battlesuit

what do i use these for

consider its worth 280 crystals each

ohh alr ty

proper sleet

this is not the case for the current valk on the banner. PAWS is from last patch

proper sleet
#

the battlesuit supply card

abstract sequoia
proper sleet
#

I see

#

so the grey card is for limited patch characters, while the pink card is for their weapons

abstract sequoia
#

either way, look into the pins of this channel and check the guide "What is worth Pulling this Patch?" as well as "All Supplies Explained"

#

we have everything explained there in detail

#

let me know if something isn't clear or if you need more details

abstract sequoia
#

there's one for dorm supply too as well as a few others for event banners

shell basin
#

Who do you have

#

It depends on what battlesuits you have right now and who you intend to pull next patch

mental coral
lyric anvil
#

Isn't that spoiler? SenadinaStare

mental coral
#

oh

shell basin
# mental coral here

Peregrine sword or Badum then, you already have sparkle and Vita doesn’t do much when you have Sena and FDD

#

I would advise peregrine sword for hitcount and bleed but Badum is very reasonable second choice

mental coral

tropic chasm
#

Yo hi, im currently trying to clear hi3 without pulling valkryie at all, i dont that good at making team, can yall help me make good team?

#

Currently i have pardofelis, starry, and swallowtail (not team)

shell basin
tropic chasm
shell basin
#

Well Abyss is a competitive format but probably the best you can do without pulling the Gacha is either Blastmetal DPS or P1 Ice team

#

Both are gonna be rough but ice gets easier next patch ||With Free Hohe||

tropic chasm
#

What is Hohe? I dont remember all herrscher acronym

shell basin
#

Herrscher of Human Ego

tropic chasm
#

Oh shit really?

shell basin
#

Elysia’s second battlesuit

#

Yeah there’s ||A box where you get to choose her or Herrscher of Truth||

tropic chasm
#

Bro that valk gonna carry me so bad

shell basin
#

Yes. Without her Dkey she’s pretty dated but much better than almost all free units and she has decent free supports

#

Team looks like HoHE, RC/Kira (SS Only), JK

#

In the mean time you can try to use other ice DPS as the leader on that sort of team, RC is probably usable if you have her wep and Peary 3pc?

shell basin
shell basin
tropic chasm
#

Oh

shell basin
#

She’s mostly a support but if you don’t have another good DPS and she has gear đŸ€·

#

I don’t know if you’ve opened starter weapon box yet tho, if you haven’t you could consider saving it ||To grab HoHe her old bow next patch||

#

You could also see about saving up resources from Mirage for Turg or JST support stigmas but I don’t know how long you intend to keep not pulling for

#

Not having any gacha battlesuits is a little limiting

round bough
#

as a starter whats worth it from all the stuff i can buy? like the elysia level thing, welkin, etc

round bough
#

yeah

shell basin
#

Check out #đŸ‘¶beginner-help message but the tldr is monthly card and the really cheap ticket bundles are best (probably ask before picking one) followed by level rush with HoHe, followed by knight BPass

#

In general I would advise holding off on spending a bit if you’re new because newbies get tons of free crystals but if you’re sure you’re going to whale eventually getting started on monthly card early can be useful

round bough
#

im between level rush and monthly card, i really like hohe

shell basin
#

Just best to avoid situations where you spend 30 bucks on stuff and then decide you don’t like the game anymore

shell basin
#

||And if you already have HoHE you can get rank up stamps for her next patch or HoTR so it’s not wasted or anything||

round bough
#

does level rush or monthly give more gems?

shell basin
#

Monthly gives more crystals per dollar

round bough
#

ohh alr ty

#

would you say its worth it for hohe? or no

shell basin
#

From a meta perspective it’s not worth it (unless you’re also buying monthly card too) but speaking personally I mean I bought it because I wanted HoHe so

round bough
#

ohh alr ty

round bough
#

oh yeah what are stamps?

shell basin
#

Typically getting a second copy of an S rank will increase it to S2, which will moderately increase stats and unlock a new skill or two

#

And then each copy you pull does more of the same. It’s rare to need more than S rank of a new release but for older battlesuits where stamps become available over time sometimes higher ranks become the default

#

For instance in a HoHE DPS cycle most people using HoHE in RL will have S2 if not SS+

round bough
#

alr tysm

#

finally got her on the third try,, do i save or pull for anything else?

shell basin
# round bough finally got her on the third try,, do i save or pull for anything else?

The options to consider are pulling for her weapon and saving for HLE. Advantage of weapon is that, if you have PAWS already, 60 pulls to make her useful as a DPS and a better support is a pretty good deal. Disadvantage is your budget is going to be a little tight for HLE if it takes too many rolls. You could toss some pulls at the banner and hope you get lucky, since if you don't it's pity for HLE wep and in the mean time it can save you some mats making her stigs, or you can just save, depending

round bough
shell basin
#

it takes at most 60 pulls to get weapon

round bough
#

if it takes alot like 50 should i just save for hle weapon?

odd plume
#

i would try to get her wp, new account can have enough for next patch no sweat, and you can have 2 usable teams

shell basin
#

since not getting it just means HLE's weapon will be cheaper

round bough
#

ohh alr ty

#

this right?

shell basin
#

and while wepless paws is not the best support for HLE she's a lot better than nothing

#

yep

round bough
#

alr ty

shell basin
#

np

round bough
#

which ones worth it?

odd plume
#

purana is a bit more versatile, can be used as cope option for ringblade user but they do nothing anyway

round bough
#

is the key of ego worth it for hohe?

dry python
#

No

tropic chasm
#

Mainly because i have main account and this no-pull acc

odd pecan
#

How can i defeat them?

grim jackal
#

For an ice team with Herrscher of human ego + Pardofelis + Li Sushang.. Which signature weapon should I pick from the box that gives us them weapons?

odd plume
shell basin
#

but don't expect too much from it outside of MA

grim jackal

but for my account in general is that the best option?

frosty kernel

so this is the abyss after breakthrough, more or less the same right? the mechanic i mean

it takes me to agony 2 group, i could stay on here with my fdd f2p team right?

alr

round bough
#

should i be 10 pulling or 1? or does it not matter

odd plume
#

final result of 1 10 pull and 10 single pull are the same
but doing single pull can prevent you from overpulling

#

tho pity does carry over for most banner

sweet flax
#

the only time it makes a difference is if the 10 pull has a discount on it (i.e. valk debut banners)

#

since you get 10 pulls for the price of 5 or 0

surreal sleet
#

Im a returnee (last time i played was sparkle banner, didn't get her) bc of elh next patch. What is the main source of xtals rn lol

shell basin
#

how much of the story have you already done and what does your account look like in terms of battlesuits?

#

If you're tapped out and don't have much it might make more sense to make a new account, but sparkle banner is recently enough you could very easily still have viable teams

fluid grove
#

still who should i get for hos đŸ€” hov or elysia

glad ice
#

better restart

fluid grove
#

im never gonna play this consistently so theres no point in restarting & i "wasted" pulls on dorm supply because i like the characters in dorm supp more than the others i dont rly take it seriously

shadow gyro
#

even for a casual pulling on dorm with crystals is still bad because the odds that you get the s rank that you want is still very low compared to getting them from free events, boxes, wt and reserve bp

Ely is better if you run HoS support

oh nice event is fully unlocked

#

#

wait

#

looks like ER to me

spiral badge
#

P much

rose holly
#

I was thinking of pulling vita on her... 3rd? 4th rerun now?

#

She looks really convenient to have

#

Or some other flexible support

#

If I get lucky with ely

spiral badge
#

you already understand how crystal income already doesn't let you keep up with every new release right?

#

and you understand how the abyss schedule usually works?

#

vita may have breach and large support coverage but that wideness is often very redundant with other things that you may already have, or will get down the line, and also not always the best. Most importantly she doesn't support the latest ring type

#

if you're considering her from carnival free pulls then that would be a different and more viable discussion but your statement about ely implies you're considering this with crystals

#

from what i remember of your roster, you already have FWS and TFM so that leaves vita or PS. I actually would lean towards PS since she covers the bleed niche that is pretty unique for now

#

anyway i don't recommend your current considerations but maybe you can elaborate/discuss more @rose holly

rose holly
#

In the event that I find myself with a 4/4 guarantee and either get ely giga early or get a valk on free pulls and need to pull weapon, I wanted to hear your opinion about pulling a character simply for coverage

#

I don't feel comfortable using hohe for basically every single one of my teams when she is pretty lackluster as a support when compared to other, even mediocre options

#

I have gotten conflicting informations from multiple sources: can a 4/4 be guaranteed per patch or not?

quick birch
#

No not even if you buy BP + monthly, if you buy BP + monthly you end up at ~30k and as a f2p it's ~20k while 30k doesn't leave you with a small chance of getting 4/4 it's still not guaranteed

rose holly
rose holly
#

I am a gambler at heart so I don't mind not having a guarantee, though I understand the risk of being left with weaponless valk

#

Plus I don't mind dolphining a tad :>

rose holly
#

I don't know how RS holds up nowaday

quick birch
# rose holly In the event that I find myself with a 4/4 guarantee and either get ely giga ear...

If we'd assume that you get Ely early but do not get a character from your|| free carnival pulls|| I'd lean towards the more conservative side and just safe put that also depends on how many crystals you actually have left, if you do get someone from the ||free 20x carnival pulls || I wouldn't be too opposed to get || PS|| weapon for example since it would allow you to play her as a DPS and it would also benefit her support role to some degree but in the end all of this advice could change depending on how much crystals you have when you're done with pulling Ely, I also want to address HoHe support a bit, while she is considering a more mediocre option in LoA and WoD she's pretty good in GoI so far and considering that|| HLE is ice || she might find some BiS use there

rose holly

Why does damage type overlap matter?

And thank you for the detailed answer it's really appreciated

I was like "hohe has a mechanic around self dmg whaa"

Ah no yeah I mean personal DMG sry

# rose holly Only if I get lucky ye

I'm saying not even if you get lucky. If you get lucky then those crystals saved can be used further down the line for future valks you would've otherwise missed out on (f2ps are expected to skip every now and then)

Coverage simply happens with time as you pull more and more new releases. It's not something you actively backpull for. Keep in mind part of the equation isn't just about situations it's used in, but also how long it will last. Vita's already almost a year old by now so her coverage despite how wide it may appear is arguably more lacking than a new release now.

While HoHE's lackluster properties are concerning, trying to hastily fix it with a backpull is arguably more reckless. It's entirely possible that newer releases may not be able to replace her in the near future, but I'm afraid if you want to be budget efficient, you'll have to make do the best you can.

rose holly
#

||HoRb dlc|| was also on my mind but I also like, don't have her

#

So I don't think it's relevant

spiral badge
# rose holly I am a gambler at heart so I don't mind *not* having a guarantee, though I under...

If you want to gamble and understand the risks/tradeoffs then sure up to you. However HI3 really isn't a game where that sort of approach is necessary due to the higher income, lower cost per valk, longer patches, foresight etc.

  • Not trying to say f2ps can afford everything now. All these factors are balanced out by the more frequent S rank releases, and also dkey releases, and gacha ops depending on your interests.

even if you are spending actual money none of these concepts change. While certainly it can buffer risky decisions more, it also can mean you have more room to work with and can cover more widely or even higher.

For supporting GoI, look for the symbiosis tag.

I think mango covered the rest

#

if you are gunning for nirvana long term and care about global atk stats on a higher budget then maybe

#

but you're only just returning so you may want to familiarize yourself with the game more, and there will be reruns if you are willing to spend for a greater budget to work with down the line

#

ofc i don't recommend backpulling due to loss of mileage, but getting something early when you can't use it is the same thing

rose holly
#

Nirvana is the goal in the end but that's probably in a year's time, or several

spiral badge
#

a single +10 atk isn't going to be a long term break in handling nirvana either

rose holly
#

Yeah

rose holly
spiral badge
#

yeah exactly

rose holly
#

But it's honestly demoralizing to only add 1 valk 10 weeks at a time

spiral badge
#

if you really want to pick something to rush to catch up on, consider PS over Vita at least

rose holly
#

For sure yeah

#

Vita was more of an example anyways

spiral badge
#

if you have the budget to handle it and you value the short term to retain interest in the game then that's more fair overall as long as you're aware

jolly pulsar
#

from what level are you able to get a sensei?

spiral badge
#

prob 80?

#

err sorry i misread

#

up to 79

rose holly

10 I think

oh i misread again lol

I think 10 is too low

#

This is FWS 3pc stig effect. Does this mean team gets the 10% if the teammate has the heavenly shift tag, or when they have heavenly shift during SO?

sweet flax
#

as long as the character has the heavenly shift tag and the leader's ring type is law of ascension the vulnerability will apply

#

it will mention it if you need to be in your stellar outburst or not

quick birch
#

you just need the 3pc buff ofc but that should be mentioned earlier how to apply that

sweet flax
#

also do keep in mind heavenly shift is the loa tag, you might be confusing it for stellar shift or heavenly link

rose holly
#

riight

#

ok i messed up somewhere and fws supposedly gives 90 total damage to loa teams

#

nvm i was including her personal total damage in the tally

#

"Deal % more damage" and "Deal % more damage to the enemies on the field" are the same thing right

sweet flax
# rose holly ok i messed up somewhere and fws supposedly gives 90 total damage to loa teams

40% total dmg
78% elemental dmg
78% physical dmg
25% total dmg vul.
6% total dmg vul. (independent)
20% fire dmg vul.
38% resonance dmg

this is non-ring specific

38% total dmg
25% total dmg vul.
8% lightning dmg
10% elemental dmg (+20% in elemental breaker)
28% total dmg (weapon/combo)

this is world star buffs

20% elemental dmg
12% physical dmg
15% total dmg
40% total dmg vul.
12% elemental dmg vul.
12% physical dmg vul.

this is law of ascension buffs

30% elemental dmg
12% physical dmg
12% total dmg
35% total dmg vul. (+11% which is weirdly translated so im not sure how its applied)
10% elemental dmg vul.
10% physical dmg vul.

this is grail of infinitude

#

its more or less within the range of 60-75%

rose holly
#

I was trying to remake this chart

#

because the numbers looked weird

sweet flax
#

oh someone already wrote the numbers down

rose holly
#

but then again it's different from your numbers kekwhat

sweet flax
#

not sure how

#

is it?

rose holly
#

so what is this

sweet flax
#

the buff fws gives her teammates is called Let's Have Fun!

rose holly
sweet flax
#

when they have that buff, they get the bonus physical/elemental dmg
not to be confused with total dmg

rose holly
#

Ye

sweet flax
rose holly
#

so am i

sweet flax
#

oh no wait he is as well

#

he put the synergy

#

tf

#

did I miscalc it by accident

rose holly
#

this is what I have before ring-specific stuff assuming astral ring is activated

#

i use weird terms for kit i think

sweet flax
#

let me organise the numbers a bit more on my side I might have mistaken the buffs

rose holly
#

But it's weird because if you acount for the stigs alone you're already looking at 48 phys and elem

#

which is more phys dmg than either table

#

ok after careful consideration and multiple recalculations, I really am not getting the same results as the table

sweet flax

#

this is 100% the accurate one

#

I double checked it 3 times

rose holly
#

I'm starting to think that the chart interprets bottom stig as vuln

sweet flax
#

let me translate it from cn incase that's the case

rose holly
#

== World Star ==
Total Damage +38%
This account for the 30 TDM in ARC yes? But does it transfer into SO?

sweet flax
#

ok m is increased physical damage dealt by teammates with the buff
b is increase damage inflicted on enemies by teammates with buff

rose holly
#

so b is vuln?

sweet flax
rose holly
sweet flax
#

When Astral Ring Charging is activated by World Star, the team deals 30% more Total DMG
When Stellar Outburst is activated by World Star,
○ Characters with Let's Have Fun! deal 8% more Total DMG

rose holly
sweet flax
#

oh wait

#

astral ring charging, I didnt read that

rose holly
#

you said it yourself CAUGHT

sweet flax
#

ye ye mb, let me correct that

#

thanks for the heads up

rose holly
#

Also LoA SO buff is vuln

I think I wrote that no?

holy fuck im gonna go crazy one sec 😭

This is what I have

sweet flax
#

wait can you check for the translation error in goi

#

Enemies take 25% more Total DMG from characters with Let's Have Fun! and Symbiosis. If the character is the Leader, enemies take an additional 11% more Total DMG.

rose holly
#

I think it refers to the character with the buff

#

so like if hohe is supporting GoI, she only gets 25, but paws would get 36

sweet flax
#

ahh

rose holly
#

Ok the chart is 100% interpreting B stig as elem/phys vuln

sweet flax
#

ok so b piece is vulnerability

#

since cn has different buffs for the 2

#

wait let me check again just to be sure

rose holly
#

My numbers match up for LoA in that case

#

WS is still like turbo fucked though

sweet flax
#

b piece is a vulnerability yes

rose holly
#

It looks like the chart includes the AC buffs in SO

#

which is a choice

sweet flax
#

up to you if you want to or not

#

but its very inaccurate

rose holly
#

The wording?

sweet flax
#

no putting both buffs together

#

one is in charing the other is in outburst TeriDerp

rose holly
#

yep

sweet flax
#

definitely a marisa moment of all time

rose holly
#

also the 8% lightning damage and 10% tdm in WS SO are mixed up

#

or something is mixed up because lightning is getting +10 on the chart but it's +8 in game

sweet flax
#

where the fuck is he getting 10% from

rose holly
#

idk but lightning gets buffed 8% in-game and there's a delta of 10 sooo

#

also this chart really ignores any of fws's fire damage buffs

sweet flax
#

Fire Damage Vulnerability +20%
to be fair its just this one line TeriDerp

#

the rest come in the form of elemental dmg/vuln

#

but if he didnt even include it then.... wow

rose holly
#

fyi

#

this unfortunately exists.

sweet flax
#

but you are looking for team buffs no?

rose holly
#

yes.

sweet flax
#

oh wait

rose holly
#

that's a passive

sweet flax
#

yeyeye I just noticed

rose holly
#

these kits are ridiculously tricky x)

sweet flax
#

defo not something to be done 12 in the morning

#

with 0 sleep

rose holly
#

anyways I'm done cross referencing I'll just do the math myself

sweet flax
#

ye go for it, ill just update the one I wrote to accomodate the passive, feel free to double check with it if you'd like

#

also make sure to update the b piece to account for the vulnerability

rose holly
#

== World Star ==
Total Damage +30% (Astral Ring Charging)
Total Damage +8% (Stellar Outburst)
Total Damage Vulnerability +25%
I assume this combines the AC and SO vulns CAUGHT
Total Damage Vulnerability +28% (Weapon/Combo)
SO specific
Lightning Damage +8%
SO specific
Elemental Damage +10% (+20% in Elemental Breaker)
SO specific as well

#

fuck the world star buffs

#

they're all under either SO or AC and none of them cross over

sweet flax
#

you can specify if its so specific or not VitaPopcorn I just did number + number and put a % beside it (and clarified with brackets where needed)

#

screw this I need to seperate the so or not

rose holly
#

up to you if you're using it for future reference

#

LoA numbers seem shuffled a tad

#

actually it's just the total damage

#

it's 15 instead of 12

#

and GoI just has the lead tdm vuln in the tdm tally

#

otherwise looks correct

sweet flax
#

ok done

#

definitely this time

rose holly
#

I updated mine, should account for the lightning damage and b stig vuln

if only the people who collected info previously collected it right we wouldnt be here

or just tell me either or is fine

still have weeks to wait out

spiral badge
#

keep in mind carnival will give 20 free valk banner rolls. Pity doesn't carry over on it though. So either only spend the free rolls, or if you must backpull with it, make sure you finish the job on it.

#

FDD isn't on it but PS/Vita is.

#

although if carnival/cost wasn't a factor then FDD being more recent may be a stronger consideration

#

btw i also encourage you try out these valks in tutorials too (top right of valk menu. ignore the guide button though) (alternatively go to attack > event tab > tactics class)

Is PAWS compatible with Elysia's upcoming battlesuit?

#

I wasn't able to pull for PAWS 'cause I was saving for anni, & if I have enough after the anni patch, I'd really like to

shadow gyro
fervent furnace
#

& no I don't have FDD (I kinda didn't want her if I don't need her, but I know she is compatible)

shadow gyro
#

yes
aka pulling on reruns

#

hmm who else do you have then?

#

its not a big deal that you don't have fdd but she's the best option for goi rn

fervent furnace
#

Ohhh I see
I have Sena, Lantern, Shadowdimmer, Thelma, HoFi pt 2 gear, HoHe pt 2 gear

shadow gyro
#

do you have horb per chance?

fervent furnace
#

Nah I understand, I'll think about her too. Is FDD utilized as a support for Elysia?

Oh yes, I plan on getting her pt 2 stuff

I have enough for Elysia + gear + HoRB gear + Chenxue

||even tho horb support is kinda ass but she's fine||

(I'm not sure who LOA/GOI is >.<)

shadow gyro
#

check the glossary in pins

#

also here's this guide if you need more info

shadow gyro
#

she's not a loa dps but a loa support

fervent furnace
#

From what you're saying, FDD is better than PAWS at support?

#

I'm not surprised since FDD is newer

shadow gyro
#

not replacing paws but her breach makes her very flexible

fervent furnace
shadow gyro
#

compared to anyone unless you need the others for boss gimmicks

shadow gyro
#

all p2 s ranks can dps and support

fervent furnace
#

Hmmm, I think my plan is to wait until who's announced for patch after anni & see if I have the capacity to pull

#

'Cause I kinda want ||Leylah|| if she's coming out soon

#

& isn't the other anni happening in Feb?

shadow gyro
#

yeah

#

although next patch news would be around the 3rd week of a new patch for us

#

and dkey has a lower time to get from gacha

fervent furnace
#

More than enough time I suppose, since PAWS is also having a rerun after Elysia I think

shadow gyro
#

u can skip chen if you don't think you have enough for future patches

fervent furnace
#

Thanks for your help 🙏

#

||If it's Leylah, I will cry||

shadow gyro
#

its hoh that has a dkey

fervent furnace
#

Oh really?

#

Oh wait yea, Badum's weap doesn't count as a Dkey

shadow gyro
#

only p2 dkeys are hofi, hoh and horb

#

the dkeys u tune and have a sparkling effect

#

they'll also be shown in the dkey page

#

ingame

fervent furnace
#

Sorry, if I see HLE again, I'm gonna think, "what the helley" instead of Elysia 💀

#

Are you planning to pull for her?

shadow gyro
#

lmao
well hle is hi love elf aka her battlesuit name
also yes

#

just calling her ely would confuse it btwn her, mpe, hoh and elf elysia

fervent furnace
#

I getchu, good luck fellow future HLE haver, may she come home early 🙏

shadow gyro
#

🙏
lowkey idk if i wanna get her early cuz i want the anni rewards and ill get a dilemma on what else to pull but being lucky will still feel better than seeing the hard pity 😭

fervent furnace
#

Then you'd just pull ranks ElysiaOhayo

#

You've been blessed, you just take it further

lmaoo

Cya

frosty kernel
#

do i need to clear it all? i guess so right since you can get more points

frosty kernel
shell basin
#

Otherwise the only thing that matters is your place in the bracket

#

The higher the score, the higher you get and you can avoid losing trophies (or even gain them)

frosty kernel
#

is the position matters a lot? like memorial arena?

#

ohh

shell basin
#

And getting trophies can move you up to a higher bracket that gives more crystals

#

While losing them can move you to a lower one that gives fewer crystals

#

So if you can you typically want to be in the top 3 in your bracket and definitely try for the top 10

#

But first place isn’t noticably better than second except for how you’re at less risk of being passed

#

You’ll want to finish all four stages usually and then see how your score matches up to your bracket, and then if you’re not placing as well as you like you can try refining your run on the last stage to get more points

frosty kernel

ok gotcha

Brand new account btw

spiral badge
#

any idea how long ago since you've last played? Doesn't have to be timewise but rather you can recall characters or something

any particular focuses/interests you have with returning to the game that we can take in mind?

#

generally speaking you can treat yourself as new especially if you're not familiar with the added astral ring system. If you're familiar with other hoyo games, i do not encourage you to try to relate it to this game

Check out pins for all sorts of common info in this channel and feel free to continue asking questions

#

For now, your biggest priority meta wise is to farm crystals to save up for the next patch's new release in a few weeks (elysia). Don't spend crystals or blue/pink tickets on starter banner

at the bottom of the faq there's a guide on how astral ring team building works check that out

since you don't have characters that support paws astral ring specialisation to it's fullest extend you can use paws/vbm/vbs for now, don't worry it's normal to not have a fully functional team as a beginner you'll get there with time

Np SakuraLuv

#

also may i ask if you just pulled paws and how many pulls you've spend on her ? We normally would encourage you to save up for 8.5 if you didnt get paws rather early in your pulls since new releases take priority, don't worry about it too much though beginners income should be enough to still get the 8.5 valk + her weapon

regal topaz
quick birch
#

SongqueStare_stolen well that's pretty good then

#

regarding her gear it should be fine to spend ~1-2 10x on the banner and see if you maybe also get lucky on her weapon but stop after that to prioritise the 8.5 valk and save your crystals for her

regal topaz

otherwise also make sure to grab vbm's weapon from p2 story if you haven't already, the starter manual also wants you to do a few missions of early p2 story so you'll get there eventually.

so shes returning earlier then i think?

#

halfway through next patch

#

about ~1.5 months from now

vital crescent
#

oh dam

#

ill quit for 1.5 months then

#

quick birch

#

make sure you do have the crystals to guarantee though, else a disappointment occur

#

just in case

vital crescent
#

i have

thick bolt
vital crescent
#

20k i think

#

is it enough?

thick bolt
#

ah, well that may get you the valk, weapon depends on rng

vital crescent
#

Oo nice

thick bolt
#

I assume you're aware of the tradeoffs of weapon vs no weapon? Or you just want the unit, that's valid as well if you temper your expectations in regards to the competitive mode

vital crescent
#

uh i want her cuz of castotrice

#

so the i just want the unit

#

but i do like staying on top of leader boards

thick bolt
#

If you're on and off you'll be fine with just the unit, but if you're looking to compete in abyss well that necessitates the weapon

#

At the minimum I'd recommend just logging on once a week to do elysian realm for the 500 crystals so you can hit pity crystals for the unit before the banner arrives instead of last minute rushes in case rng says no u

vital crescent
#

i bet i'd get the weapon in 1 singlular pull 🗿

Collab Valkyries

Confused, Captain? AichanLaugh

We have 3 collab Valkyries - who can receive a rerun?

Evangelion

  • Asuka will never rerun unless there is a second Evangelion collab. This is due to legal restrictions as Asuka is not HoYo's character.

HoYoverse Collabs

  • Genshin:
    • Fischl is available via the Asterite Shop.
    • Keqing was playable in an event but was never a battlesuit, therefore she was only playable during the collab itself.
  • Star Rail:
    • Sparkle will rerun just like a normal S-Rank Valkyrie.
vital crescent
#

ah so whens uh herssher of rebirth's rerun

quick birch
#

probably never she's too old but over time there will be other ways to obtain her like reserve work or war treasury, she should be rather soon in the former

vital crescent
#

i should have never skipped her then 😔

surreal garden
#

who charges AR the fastest

thick bolt
#

context? Charging has a base rate with stuff like vita weapon giving her a 15 boost on first charge attack

surreal garden

That depends on the team though, your units do have to synergise with their ring and support tags

Free Stigmata Boxes

Hey, Captain! AichanBlush

In Honkai Impact 3rd Part 2, most new Valkyries will have a Stigma Option box given for free! But when should you use them?

If you are pulling for the corresponding weapon, you should open the box AFTER you have 2 different pieces of that stigmata set already. These stigma boxes are optimally used to finish a stigmata set. This also applies to Part 1 stigmata boxes, if you have any.

If you...

  • Obtained the weapon before you got at least 2 stigmata set pieces, stop pulling! Open the box to get the best piece and then craft any missing stigmata (you can find these in Foundry).
  • Already got the full stigmata set before the weapon (there are high chances that you did), keep the box as a collectible or open it, select a random stigma and salvage it for Source Prism.
  • Are skipping or have skipped the corresponding weapon but want to get the Stigmata set, open the box first for the best piece then craft the other two via Foundry.
  • Skipped the weapon and do not intend to craft the Stigmata set, you have no urgent reason to open the box, so keep it.

Regarding Bronya: N-EX, you can open the box once you own T or B and use it to finish TB. M is not BiS on SW.

thick bolt
#

tldr if you don't have the unit just keep it in your inventory or use it for the source prism if needed

Hello I haven’t started playing Honkai impact yet but I’m a big fan of hsr and Genshin impact was wondering if this game is worth getting into

shell basin
# tame crest Hello I haven’t started playing Honkai impact yet but I’m a big fan of hsr and G...

Depends on what you think makes a game worth getting into. It's pretty different gameplay wise from say HSR, but it does have some characters you'll recognize (Sparkle, alt versions of eg acheron/raiden shogun, phainon, cyrene, yae miko) and a good story. Fairly f2p friendly but on the other hand that means getting caught up will take a lot of time irl. Obviously everyone here is pretty selected for playing it

tame crest
#

sparkle is in this game? wait what? did she isekai or something

#

if its f2p then is there a gacha with 50/50? i kinda lowkey want sparkle and alt versions of characters

shell basin
#

It's the same universe

#

like Mr Yang is from here originally

#

Sparkle has a rerun banner next patch

#

there is no 50-50

tame crest
#

no 50/50?

shell basin
#

you just get the character if you hit pity

tame crest
#

oh wow

#

thats a big w how much is pity?

shell basin
#

90 pulls

#

new releases get a discounted 10 pull that's half off

odd plume
#

no 50 50 but wp is a must if you follow the meta

shell basin
#

or sometimes all the way off like next patch new release

odd plume
#

this game has leaderboard, so most advice will be based on the meta

tame crest
#

is there anything i should know if i start playing

shadow gyro
# tame crest Hello I haven’t started playing Honkai impact yet but I’m a big fan of hsr and G...

this game got a LOT of lore if you're interested in that, including the manga
if you don't care much about the lore you can skip the dialogues but you still need to do the combat and interaction parts
the story is stage wise for the most part, some of it has a mini overworld that you can explore
you can freely play as a competitive player, half or very casual
the game does have a lot to do but its fine if you do a bit everyday
there's a lot of gimmicks, types, etc, if you wanna be competitive you need to know most of them which you'll achieve overtime
a lot of old characters are farmable if you wanna collect them but meta wise the older the character the less relevant they are
there are also varying event gameplays and as you progress you won't need to spend too much time in the game to do dailies

this is barely scratching the surface but this can help you decide FuHuaApprove

tame crest
#

ok screw this game i havent read a single manga completely in my life im gonna read manga instead thanks bro. i got a new hobby now

shadow gyro
#

oh btw the manga is optional

#

it matters if you care a lot about the lore otherwise you can read it anytime

tame crest
#

bruh are you serious? is it like ova? non cannon then

shell basin
#

There's a bunch of guides in this channel but the main tldr I would give for gameplay is that Hi3 really incentivized playing actively. Not neccesarily a ton of time each day but a lot of your pulls come from checking in each day

odd plume

and doing weekly/biweekly tasks

You're in NA? You can get anyone else in NA to be your sensei. I'll send you an invite if you want, would need to know ur ingame acc tho

shadow gyro
#

you just need to provide your ingame uid and ppl can add you

shell basin
#

if you're in a different server than NA you'd get someone from that server

tame crest
#

but nvm

#

i'll get my user id. I need help from good pro players like you guys

#

can i add you?

shell basin
#

sure you could do that too

tame crest
#

will i be able to borrow characters?

shadow gyro
#

youre also always welcome to ask in here
we have a lot of guides in this channel

lucid maple

how do i get a PRE-ARM?

lone crater
#

pri arm? not all weaps can be pri

#

then u need to max it 50

lucid maple
#

which weapons can?

ruby canyon
#

how tf do u solve this

lone crater
#

equipment foundry should show all the weaps available for pri

lone crater
#

and light it up using that fuel thing u get

ruby canyon
#

where do you get the fire fuel thing?

lone crater
#

you can craft it

ruby canyon
#

thats what i was thinking. i had one in my inventory to light up a campfire, idk where it came from

lone crater
#

you made it at the playground place

ruby canyon
#

mkay wait imma do that

lone crater
#

it is called creative workshop or something at the middle right

#

and assuming you have the mats for it , you can craft it

lucid maple
#

welp guess im not completing phase 9 i have nothing that can be pre-arm TwT imma wait till next patch

lone crater
#

the mats for it can be shown on the map when you get to crafting it

#

and should give you option to see where to get it

ruby canyon
#

thanks afklord

gloomy urchin

new player here, how to lv up fast?

gloomy urchin
shell basin
#

Attack->Start->story

#

Clearing the story is the fastest way to level up and will also get you mats and crystals while you do it

gloomy urchin
#

tysm!

sweet flax
#

The important thing is you use stamina, clearing expeditions and chronicles to name a few examples for 1 time crystal sources is also a beneficial option

also sparkle buffs are passive and don't need refreshing
and hohe stig set refreshes on entering stellar outburst

spiral badge
# rose holly Outside of personal damage, do sparkle/hohe have no reason to use their stellar ...

if you have a stellar shift ready, you cannot QTE a valk normally. So it can be viable to get their shifts over with so you can QTE them regularly for heavenly link again.

Outburst works differently for LoA. You can think of pressing the big button as giving all your valks "shifts" to use. Outburst effects are active when using a shift. The stellar drains are refreshed for LoA after the initial big button although some valks kinda just trigger them during their shift animation? idr

rose holly
#

So outburst is only active during stellar shift/augmented ascension?

spiral badge
#

there can be very weird situations to use a shift or not. Sometimes you want to do it for animation purposes (slows down MA timer) or not (if you're waiting on a boss, then the animation may pause them and therefore delay the overall fight)

#

also sometimes a shift may simply not be worth using and the fight can be structured to avoid using that particular valk's shift

spiral badge
rose holly
#

It does read like it

#

(fws)

#

How big is heavenly link damage anyways

sweet flax
#

they all have the same value VitaPopcorn

rose holly
#

ye just how significant is it actually

#

compared to just on-fielding with mdps

sweet flax
#

compared to the actual dps insignificant, but its a decent amount itself

#

is there seriously never ever going to be part1 characters in supply anymore?

quick birch
#

probably not

#

but they'll be available through other sources like Reserve work or war treasury

rose holly
#

some have been in spending events

split wind
#

thats such a bummer, atleast a limited rare supply wooops lol consisting of part1s would be more than enough i want lunar vow so bad but i dont want to buy the bp cuz i have better things to buy/save for

#

ik some will eventually come out in dorm supply too but thatll take awhile

quick birch
#

that's understandable, she should be in reserve work at some point so if you really want her consider saving up for that, though note that saving for that as a f2p takes roughly a year and there are better things in there if you're meta oriented

split wind
#

im not the biggest meta player i get who happens to be out and cool and bonus if thye happen to be meta if that makes sense but yeah i plan to just get bp here and there i have 18 rn, and jus wait till she comes to reserve for cheaper or jus wait and pray(cope) for a limtied pt1 supply

spiral badge
quick birch
spiral badge
#

also i'm sorry i missed your question in the other channel earlier. Good of you to move it here

split wind

not just coping wise but in general since im not informed but is it a set part1 never coming back or is it just a probaly never like we dunno forsure

nws at all!!SakuraLuv
