yeah
follow the asterite shop pin
hmm
VBm Coralie valk card can also be obtained from early part 2 story if you haven't picked that up yet
oh disregard what i said then but yeah keep at it
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
already bought it this week, i guess the second priority its to grab sc metals. You know for ely too
yeah
đ
Itâs one of the best deals
Either second best after monthly card or best, idr which, but either way itâs a lot
ok i grab it then
but damn it feels like i prolly can only afford to get only ely on the first day
Thereâs a free 10 pull but yeah your crystal count seems a little rough. You could consider doing more story grinding if you have time
though i calculate it i can get to 22k till the banner
yeah true, there's also ER but kinda hesitant cuz i didnt reach that far on the story yet
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
i mean i kinda did know some ngl but just missing some details of the story
Do you have any pity pushed?
Do you have any ER valks unlocked?
Do you have some collection in ER left to fill out?
also btw on ER to unlock all content freely, you only need to clear chapter 1 right?
chapter 2 I think
oh my god..
If you are running out of valkyries to unlock for ER with the weekly key, look into war treasury
yes yes yes i can still do the weeklies tho so i do it one missions at a time a week
i mean..
its good but i need to do the story tho thats the thing
I believe you can do it :>
elysian realm is on like chapter 27-28 right, i am still at 23
and i dont wanna rush it
the dilemma..
kolospain?
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
oh before otto?
oh well i guess i could do it then
Plus you should be able to make sense of the story regardless
thought this was the one
nvm after chapter 25
yeah i mean i already know some stuff but i still wanna enjoy the story
so this?
it says this at the end of chap 25
this is where i stop, i was legit grinding the story for the first 2 weeks but stopped on this one
the best ones yet
dont know why but i lost interest suddenly lmao
23-25 were my favorite so far
prolly cuz seele
not only
ohh i see i take that in mind
just upgraded my wep to 55, maybe now i can atleast go to floor 7
nvm still ass
It might be a rotation issue, you could try recording your run, but qmanifold masters RL can be tough so I'm far from certain
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
Nvm just did it, reached floor 7
considering a lot of p2 teams exist the disturbance is higher than before, definitely not something a beginner wants to experience 
Still donât get it
For 10 tickets + 1000 swirl
F6 is 60+460=520
F7 is 70+490=560
Unless I donât understand something
F6 is the most efficient if you salvage the Crystalytes into ether fuel as well
I see I see
Guess the crystals are useless now unless you want old stigs? Which arenât really worth unless you want them for collect I assume
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
Also is there a use in P2 for the red spatial item thing
none that i can recall rn so i dont think so
||when is the new elysia coming out?||
23rd oct
schedule is pinned in #đźcn-gameplay-discussion for future reference
Is the elysia event long iv been ignoring it this entire time
How do I get the weapon resonance from my 3rd sacred relic?
Yeah, I suggest starting asap
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)
Equip -> Weapons -> Salvage -> Convert
Make sure it's unlocked in your inventory btw
lvl 67 is beginner beginner xdd
You can run HoS either as the DPS or as a support, which do you want?
Ofc keep in mind that HoS is not recommended to build at all
what does this mean? i want her to be a dps :d
And how hard do you wanna go on building her? A proper BiS comp will take a pretty long while
Many-many patches (of waiting)
well .. not very hard. i jst want to be able to clear the abyss and stuff more easily. i dont think i have a very good weapon for her either.. and i dont have that many artifacts đ so ..
but why did u say hos isnt reccommened to build? is she bad ? :(
Compared to modern gacha valks by a massive margin, yes
is there a newer version of fu hua that acts as a dps and is as cool as hos?
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
sorry but could you say the entire words cause i have no idea what vbm means or ta
Terminal Aide 0017 and Valkyrie Blastmetal
You can refer to the glossary in the pins in the future
Not by much, can't really compare them cuz they do different things
One is BIO Phys while the other is MECH Lightning
Both options aren't good at all, it's hard to answer 
If your only goal is to improve Abyss/MA performance I suggest you run teams from here:

do you think they will add more good characters to the shop soon, like the war treasury thing
Also, you shouldn't be able to get either of them at lvl 67
War Treasury won't ever have good valks in it
why not? tbh ive been on and off w this game for years and been just hoarding the purple stuff
but i see recently they removed giving the purple stuff to the returnees
Oh, you're a returnee?
Yeah, saying that lvl 67 is not beginner beginner makes sense then
yess i have phases where i play for a month then uninstall then come back 5 months later etc
(leveling has been sped up very significantly like 2 years ago or so)
oh i see
(but it stays slow for old accs)
i think my account is from 2022 or 2023
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)
You'll get back to lvl 67 in like 2 weeks tops
but then i would lose alot of characters
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
i have li sushang, ss seele vollerei, herrscher of origin, azure empyrea hua and some other charas from events and stuff
how can i do that
Which Seele? There are 4 of them
Ah, the oldest one
Everyone you have except Origin is farmable through either War Treasury or the Asterite Shop
oh. well
And the Seele you have is obtained for free from Part 1 story
but still making a new account and going through all the story even with the skip button itll be very annoying
wait how can i see that i forgot
No easy way
Just gotta go through the chapters and see what the last thing you completed was
Yeah, that's not much
- if you're interested in the story you might want a refresher
no its too much for me to keep up with i already keep up with genshin and hsr
lvl 67 makes sense with your story progression then
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 .
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)
Same goes for Mobius ofc
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 
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;
I haven't mentioned what gear you can run on HoS and TA btw, can you show me the stigs you have rn?
Unless you get very lucky with Dorm Supply, but you can't rely on that
report it in his discord, he has a channel called #website-feedback
invite link for it is in his channel description and every video description

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
Recommended to use a new account to get the starter bonus. It speeds up account development and crystal income a lot comparatively to working on an old one without
alright tysm, and who should i pull? or is no one worth it rn
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
i think ill make a new one and stick to playing
currently it's just save mode for next update on the 23rd. If you see yourself rerolling then potentially picking up PAWS from rerolls is an option Rerolling info
how worth is it?
also what r the %
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
What's up
Just a disclaimer if you aren't committed to reroll just play as usual and go save mode, not worth committing crystals
Returning captain, should I just make a new account or continue this one?
New one is better unless you are attached cause of some rare collectible like Asuka or such
ill probably reroll then it seems worth it
Alright, thank you
goodluck!
Who should I farm on the new account tho?
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

-# You don't need to build all of these!
[Click here](#đ¶beginner-help message) to view budget stigmata setups!
some useful starter teams you can eventually get to building
23rd what? I'm not familiar with the events, I'm sorry
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
whos paws btw?
Planar Armament, the cyborg girl on the current banner. Helia v2
ah i see
How about tutorials about the rotation? Do I need to worry about that?
Or just random bs go play style?
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 
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?
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
I'd suggest just starting now since it gives you time to learn the game/save up crystals till the update
You can check #đźcn-gameplay-discussion pins
It's a new Elysia, the pins there have the details
oh fr? i love elysia i didnt know she was getting a new battlesuit
what do i use these for
one equals one pull on any battlesuit supply
consider its worth 280 crystals each
ohh alr ty
which type of banners is worth pulling?
Valkyries that were released in the current patch, including their signature weapons
they typically use the grey ticket right?
this is not the case for the current valk on the banner. PAWS is from last patch
the battlesuit supply card
for the valkyrie supply, the banner for weapons uses different tickets
I see
so the grey card is for limited patch characters, while the pink card is for their weapons
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
the pink cards are useable for gear supply and the astralop supply btw
there's one for dorm supply too as well as a few others for event banners
Who do you have
It depends on what battlesuits you have right now and who you intend to pull next patch
here
Isn't that spoiler? 
oh
Peregrine sword or Badum then, you already have sparkle and Vita doesnât do much when you have Sena and FDD
I would advise peregrine sword for hitcount and bleed but Badum is very reasonable second choice
tysm
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)
You should be fine to clear story. Do you mean clearing Abyss?
Yeah all challenge
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||
What is Hohe? I dont remember all herrscher acronym
Herrscher of Human Ego
Oh shit really?
Elysiaâs second battlesuit
Yeah thereâs ||A box where you get to choose her or Herrscher of Truth||
Bro that valk gonna carry me so bad
Yes. Without her Dkey sheâs 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?
What is rc?
Also take a look at #đ¶beginner-help message for beginner teams in general
Reverist Calico, Pardofelis
Oh
Sheâs mostly a support but if you donât have another good DPS and she has gear đ€·
I donât know if youâve opened starter weapon box yet tho, if you havenât 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 donât know how long you intend to keep not pulling for
Not having any gacha battlesuits is a little limiting
as a starter whats worth it from all the stuff i can buy? like the elysia level thing, welkin, etc
Like with real cash?
yeah
Check out #đ¶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 youâre new because newbies get tons of free crystals but if youâre sure youâre going to whale eventually getting started on monthly card early can be useful
im between level rush and monthly card, i really like hohe
Just best to avoid situations where you spend 30 bucks on stuff and then decide you donât like the game anymore
||Hohe is being given away for free next patch, in three weeks|| but level rush is still a pretty good deal
||And if you already have HoHE you can get rank up stamps for her next patch or HoTR so itâs not wasted or anything||
does level rush or monthly give more gems?
Monthly gives more crystals per dollar
From a meta perspective itâs not worth it (unless youâre also buying monthly card too) but speaking personally I mean I bought it because I wanted HoHe so
ohh alr ty
oh yeah what are stamps?
Stamps are used for ranking up a battlesuit. Each stamp is 10 fragments but only works if you already have the battlesuit
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. Itâs 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+
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
whats the stopping point for her weapon?
it takes at most 60 pulls to get weapon
if it takes alot like 50 should i just save for hle weapon?
i would try to get her wp, new account can have enough for next patch no sweat, and you can have 2 usable teams
I would say pulling for her weapon is the better plan but to not sweat if you don't get it
since not getting it just means HLE's weapon will be cheaper
and while wepless paws is not the best support for HLE she's a lot better than nothing
yep
alr ty
np
which ones worth it?
none of them really matter, can just save the box till you know that you want something
purana is a bit more versatile, can be used as cope option for ringblade user but they do nothing anyway
is the key of ego worth it for hohe?
No
I dobt have any intend to pull lol
Mainly because i have main account and this no-pull acc
How can i defeat them?
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?
ely apo griseo, use griseo ult then kill the chickens behind
For that team specifically HoHe's will be the biggest jump, especially if you have Nebs for Shushang to cope with
but don't expect too much from it outside of MA
but for my account in general is that the best option?
so this is the abyss after breakthrough, more or less the same right? the mechanic i mean
which do i get?
it takes me to agony 2 group, i could stay on here with my fdd f2p team right?
i picked starburst, it was helpful on my hohe team
kinda but not really, weather and boss play bigger role, you are competing with other player, not just npc
should be fine in agony 2 with what you have
but you may need to understand your team and play better
can pick the midle one, none of them really matter but she is the least bad
all 3 are farmable too
alr ty
btw which server you playing rn?
im playing america
ah i see
what do i choose?
keep it till you get FDD and 2 other pieces
probaby 4 years later
check asterite guide in the pins
alr
should i be 10 pulling or 1? or does it not matter
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
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
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
Part 1 story and elysian realm. For recurring rather than 1 time sources, abyss and weekly elysian realm
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
full list of crystal sources here: #đ¶beginner-help message
sorry im just seeing this. i plan to finally lock in and craft some
still who should i get for hos đ€ hov or elysia
better restart
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
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
For HoS DPS both are useless
Ely is better if you run HoS support
ik but its not that deep as i said i dont take it very seriously
i play gachas i know how bad it is to pull on standard
i like her so i might get her then and do that
Is HoH DLC still rerun? I want to upgrade my HoH to SS in the next version but I don't have her DLC yet.
You can check the current patch's schedule in #đgameplay-help pins and the next patch's in #đźcn-gameplay-discussion pins
We don't have any info outside of that
Her dkey is pretty new, so it should rerun at some point
alr thank you sir
Then the team would be TA HoS MPE (maybe MPE leader, idr for sure)
Can you show your blue stigs as well?
sorry who is mpe again, i just closed the game ill come back later w stigs
oh mb LMAO so ely hos and who is ta?
Terminal Aide 0017
oh ok good i like her too
for now i put the economic build on hos btw marco polo thing. but what should i put on ely? economic aswell right
Marco Polo is a DPS set
Slap it on Ely
Tbh you can just run whatever, your stig choices won't change much
Figuring out the rotation would be a lot more impactful
oh oki thanks
its alr! i just wanted to let you know
you never know if you like a valk in the limited supply that u wanna get or works with the valks ur building or if there's any outfits from gacha that u wanna snatch
i dont care for outfits and i like very few characters that are in the lim supply but even so i could get enough crystals to guarantee them cause i got a looooootttt to farm
are these any worth?

P much
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
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
Only if I get lucky ye
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?
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
Fyi this might not necessarily be vita, it could be paws or fdd or other
Ok I understand
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 :>
Does PS support GoI? I was thinking about her actually
I don't know how RS holds up nowaday
Yeah
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
Why does damage type overlap matter?
And thank you for the detailed answer it's really appreciated
HoHe self DMG isn't that bad in GoI and since ||HLE has some ice weathers|| bosses HoHe would also benefit from said ||Ice DMG buff||
Ah no yeah I mean personal DMG sry
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.
||HoRb dlc|| was also on my mind but I also like, don't have her
So I don't think it's relevant
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
yeah prob not
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
Nirvana is the goal in the end but that's probably in a year's time, or several
a single +10 atk isn't going to be a long term break in handling nirvana either
Yeah
I could also just save up for something else further down the line
yeah exactly
But it's honestly demoralizing to only add 1 valk 10 weeks at a time
if you really want to pick something to rush to catch up on, consider PS over Vita at least
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
from what level are you able to get a sensei?
10 I think
oh i misread again lol
Xd
I think 10 is too low
Time for a nap old man
but anyway it should tell you in the sensei menu
Sairaan go take a nap
friend > sensei tab > some i button
Also memes are you seriously making a new starter guide it'll be outdated before you even finish dude
Oh never mind kek
I think I'll see how my ely pulls go
Itâs that low? I didnât know
Remember when the cadet system was to encourage sensei and cadet to do co-op together
i remember doing co op UM
yeah there were recurring missions for coop
I think I remember that yeah
I just donât recall being encouraged to do them
there were rewards. it just wasn't anything major
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?
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
you just need the 3pc buff ofc but that should be mentioned earlier how to apply that
also do keep in mind heavenly shift is the loa tag, you might be confusing it for stellar shift or heavenly link
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
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%
but then again it's different from your numbers 
so what is this
the buff fws gives her teammates is called Let's Have Fun!
well 78 elemental dmg is already higher than any of the two tables
when they have that buff, they get the bonus physical/elemental dmg
not to be confused with total dmg
Ye
im also accounting weapon
so am i
this is what I have before ring-specific stuff assuming astral ring is activated
i use weird terms for kit i think
let me organise the numbers a bit more on my side I might have mistaken the buffs
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

this is 100% the accurate one
I double checked it 3 times
I'm starting to think that the chart interprets bottom stig as vuln
let me translate it from cn incase that's the case
== World Star ==
Total Damage +38%
This account for the 30 TDM in ARC yes? But does it transfer into SO?
ok m is increased physical damage dealt by teammates with the buff
b is increase damage inflicted on enemies by teammates with buff
so b is vuln?


the condition is having astral ring activated for 30%, and you get an additional 8% during outburst
When Astral Ring Charging is activated by World Star, the team deals 30% more Total DMG
When Stellar Outburst is activated by World Star,
â Characters with Let's Have Fun! deal 8% more Total DMG
you said it yourself 
Also LoA SO buff is vuln
fyi
Kit
Pass1: Team 30 into SD max hp
Pass2: Lead 15 Fire
W1: Cut 8% SD max hp on WS
W3: 6% damage share

GoI: 30 Elem
12 Phys
12 TDM
25 TDM Vuln
Lead 11 TDM Vuln
10 TDM Vuln in SO
10 Elem/Phys Vuln in SO
This is what I have
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.
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
ahh
Ok the chart is 100% interpreting B stig as elem/phys vuln
ok so b piece is vulnerability
since cn has different buffs for the 2
wait let me check again just to be sure
b piece is a vulnerability yes
The wording?
yep
definitely a marisa moment of all time
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
where the fuck is he getting 10% from
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
Fire Damage Vulnerability +20%
to be fair its just this one line 
the rest come in the form of elemental dmg/vuln
but if he didnt even include it then.... wow
but you are looking for team buffs no?
yes.
oh wait
that's a passive
yeyeye I just noticed
these kits are ridiculously tricky x)
anyways I'm done cross referencing I'll just do the math myself
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
== 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
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
you can specify if its so specific or not
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
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
I updated mine, should account for the lightning damage and b stig vuln
does anyone know to to unlink a gmail if you dont have access to it
Anyways, that was only the first kit I wanted to take a look at 
you'd have to contact hoyoverse but its unlikely they'll go through with it, do check in #how-to-contact-cs
bruv
my email got accidently deleted for some reason i dont know what i enabled on my pc for that to happen
but ill see
can always refer with #đtechnical-help they are more experienced on the matter, but more likely than not they will also recommend contacting cs 

if only the people who collected info previously collected it right we wouldnt be here
how do i email them again
i need a visual
or just tell me either or is fine
its in the channel 
nvm
:p
there's some fun to doing it yourself
only some though, as I stopped shortly after sending that message
Actually maybe FDD
but I'll see later
still have weeks to wait out
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.
it doesn't last long either so make absolutely sure you can guarantee before it ends. Check pins in #đźcn-gameplay-discussion for calendar
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
yes but you don't need to backpull since you weren't able to get her alr
do you have fdd? what other p2 valks do you have?
Backpull?
& no I don't have FDD (I kinda didn't want her if I don't need her, but I know she is compatible)
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
Ohhh I see
I have Sena, Lantern, Shadowdimmer, Thelma, HoFi pt 2 gear, HoHe pt 2 gear
do you have horb per chance?
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
for loa and goi
also roo support
I have enough for Elysia + gear + HoRB gear + Chenxue
hle horb dkey hoh dkey gives you a team alr
#wiki-consult message How come LOA includes Vita?
||even tho horb support is kinda ass but she's fine||
(I'm not sure who LOA/GOI is >.<)
she have the heavenly shift tag that is needed to support loa
she's not a loa dps but a loa support
From what you're saying, FDD is better than PAWS at support?
I'm not surprised since FDD is newer
not replacing paws but her breach makes her very flexible
Is Horb pt 2 built for DPS?
compared to anyone unless you need the others for boss gimmicks
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?
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
More than enough time I suppose, since PAWS is also having a rerun after Elysia I think
u can skip chen if you don't think you have enough for future patches
Right, Elysia's new weap is a dkey, but dw I'm focusing on that first
Thanks for your help đ
||If it's Leylah, I will cry||
not elysia, but horb
new ely aka hle has a normal weapon
its hoh that has a dkey
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
Sorry, if I see HLE again, I'm gonna think, "what the helley" instead of Elysia đ
Are you planning to pull for her?
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
I getchu, good luck fellow future HLE haver, may she come home early đ
đ
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 đ
the first 10 pull of every new unit is free yes?
No
The only 10 pull that was free was, vita (7.8) ||and next patches (hle, 8.5)||
for vita in 7.8 and ||hle in 8.5||
the rest is 50% discount
Usually they are 50% off though
The only exception was sena in 7.3, in which the 50% reduduction on the first 10 pull was on the Songque Astralop
ooh ok, so i only need 19,600 to get elysia
You need 22,400 to get her herself
Assuming 90 pity till on the banner
i got a 10 pull ready not counting the crystals and the free one in the patch
U need 19600 more then
make sure u get her wp as well
the pity is also 90 yeah?
Character is 90
Weapon is 60
On the Aop but not the Valk 
so i need 19600 for unit and 16800 for weapon, manageable
U need 22,400 total for character
16800 for weapon
In total 39,200 for weapon and character
is best what i can buy?
for the character its -20 pulls cuz i have 10 tickets and the free roll
U still need 22400 total
Its 25200 for a S rank in 90 pulls
The free roll makes it 22400
waht is better for fate-def dragon?
Pri arming is always worth it, it gives more buffs/dmg and another passive.
upgrading the weapon into a better version of the weapon
This is what a pri arm is
ahhh
so better then mine rn?
ooh yeah i miss read that my bad havent gotten any sleep lol
Pri arming a weapon is usually benefical for characters you use, more specifically pt2 valks, dont pri arm a pt1 valk as their is barley any pt1 valks that have any usage nowadays abyss wise atleast
waht i dont understand som

"Pri arming a weapon is usually benefical for characters" only to this
sry my eng is bad and my game knolige even worther
Pri armimg a weapon is generally fine to do for pt2 characters
Does that help?
a bit .-. but dont know if i should craft it or for my Pardofelis her weapon
It?
Are you referring to purana (her signiture weapon)
If so, do not
Padro released in 5.6 and is a pt1 character and pri arming a pt1 valkyries weapon is generally not reccomended
ok then all good ^^
btw another question hehe
is Thelema still available or when not wehnen is her rerun ^^,
Thelema is currently not available, however ||she will be in bp next patch, but she does rewuire her weapon to support and dps a lot more than other pt2 valks||
She is old nowadays so it is generally not reccomended to invest into them as her coverwge has died down compared to her release.
||and Spending||
Oh yeah
is aniway i guess ||im buying then the bp ^^,|| cuz im really a fan of her design and gameplay
I forgot to mention, ||she is in a spending event that patch which could allow you to obtain her from the event (you do need to spend 40k+ xtals though, i cant verify atm you can check #đźcn-gameplay-discussion pins so see how much exactly) and if you buy bp, you can get her signiture weapon (costs 20 balls, knight gives 16 (+2 dorm)||
I do have to go now though
Cya
do i need to clear it all? i guess so right since you can get more points
dont need to censor since it just got officially announced
You need 15000 points for the rewards, but you have that already
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)
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 isnât noticably better than second except for how youâre at less risk of being passed
Youâll want to finish all four stages usually and then see how your score matches up to your bracket, and then if youâre not placing as well as you like you can try refining your run on the last stage to get more points
ok gotcha
ik the valk is announced but idk if beta is up or not
so yeah i just took the safe approach 
I'm lacking a team for SS MA, what can I do with exclusively part 1 units? I think the best S-ranks I have are HoS and JK
Screenshot your battlesuits?
who do you have thats not locked onto someone else
quick question what build for stater that could hlep me carry me in any type of idk stage or farming ?
how do i change my character here i totally forgot

how do i get elysia herrscher of human ego ?
it's for player who buy the lv rush bundle, dont need to worry about her if you are f2p
||tho we could get her for free next patch, wont matter much however||
i see
well i do see some are free some are questionable
what question do you have?
So I'm restarting the game after a long time, anything I should look out for?
Brand new account btw
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
The pins here have good information, this is a good starting point:

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

ty so much đ ill check everything out and come back if i have any questions
Np 
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
idk i did around 10 pulls maybe on her banner each separetly and got her 2 times
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
okii ty :) also who is the 8.5 valk
i dont have vbs...
took my time trying to find the abbreviation
the only thing announced for the global servers is that the valk is a new elysia battlesuit and that the name is HiâȘ Love Elfâ„
for more info check #đźcn-gameplay-discussion pins
we can also talk about the 8.5 valk here if it's investment related you just have to || spoiler || the info that isnt announced to global yet
she's available in the asterite shop
OHHHH I started playing for elysia actually so this is perfect for me đ„č
ill work on getting her asap
just keep playing and look from time to time if you can unlock her she's not that important, you can use RC until you get her, you should get RC from the starter manual
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. If you're worried about story spoilers the missions required for the weapon and starter manual are completely separate from p1 story, p1 and p2 story starts to connect once you reach p2 story chapter 3ex
|| you'll also replace RC/VBs with the new elysia battlesuit once you have her since she can support paws and paws can support her||
idk how to get her from the starter thingy i click on go! and it takes me to the lobby screen 
ohh okay thank u so much
makes sense :D
it should be a book in the bottom middle of the bridge screen
what i mean is, i click on that go button but it doesnt take me anywhere and idk what i have to do or where is that expeditions thing

ah you're a returnee, just fyi we recommend returnees to create a new account especially if their old account did not have a lot of things so that they can benefit from the stater rewards, though if you're more on the casual side it's still totally doable to get started on this account especially since you got a big lucky on paws and still have poth to greatness
does eu have the same release time for banner as na
oh in that case should i make a new account? im completely fine with that too since i havent really done anything
regarding the expedition mission you first need to clear any expedition under attack -> start -> material expedition and then after that you need to auto clear them through the dorm menu under expeditions
how long is corolie's banner
that banner is already over
unfortunately yes
ohh okay ty!!!
You'll miss the rerun if you skip 4 months 
check the schedule in #đźcn-gameplay-discussion pins
so shes returning earlier then i think?
oh dam
ill quit for 1.5 months then
its said i didnt have the time to play hi3
cuz of account issues
regarding this I'm not too familiar with how starter manual rewards compare if you still have path to greatness but i'd assume yeah, if you don't mind rerolling you could also try to get paws early again otherwise it's just save for 8.5, do note that rerolling can become quite exhausting so stop if you feel like it ruins your fun at the game 
make sure you do have the crystals to guarantee though, else a disappointment occur
just in case
i have

ah, well that may get you the valk, weapon depends on rng
Oo nice
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
uh i want her cuz of castotrice
so the i just want the unit
but i do like staying on top of leader boards
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
i bet i'd get the weapon in 1 singlular pull đż
i can try..
also is sparkle still meta
lets get you back to bed if you wanna dream big dreams
is she still meta ? yes on certain bosses, is she recommended to get at this point ? no
useful for the non gacha currency competitive mode i.e mostly dead unless you're a whale and like MA
wait you can still get sparkle i thought she was a collab limited?
Must have for the once a blue moon quantum weather, decent loa support but loa use cases are slowly starting to stop appearing as we move onto the next ring
she's a hoyo char so she'll just rerun normally since they won't have any copyright issues like they'd have with asuka for example
!faq collab
Confused, Captain? 
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.
ah so whens uh herssher of rebirth's rerun
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
i should have never skipped her then đ
who charges AR the fastest
context? Charging has a base rate with stuff like vita weapon giving her a 15 boost on first charge attack
mkay cuz i need it for abyss
That depends on the team though, your units do have to synergise with their ring and support tags
dragon coralie, helia, vita
im starting a new account now thank u a lot for your advice
gimme a sec

niceu
So what should I pick?
!faq stigbox
Hey, Captain! 
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.
tldr if you don't have the unit just keep it in your inventory or use it for the source prism if needed
where do i spend my crystals rn or should I save?
Save, new patch is dropping in 2 weeks
And with it a new banner and a spending event
okay ty!
Hello I havenât started playing Honkai impact yet but Iâm a big fan of hsr and Genshin impact was wondering if this game is worth getting into
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
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
It's the same universe
like Mr Yang is from here originally
Sparkle has a rerun banner next patch
there is no 50-50
no 50/50?
you just get the character if you hit pity
no 50 50 but wp is a must if you follow the meta
or sometimes all the way off like next patch new release
this game has leaderboard, so most advice will be based on the meta
is there anything i should know if i start playing
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 
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
oh btw the manga is optional
it matters if you care a lot about the lore otherwise you can read it anytime
bruh are you serious? is it like ova? non cannon then
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
avoid starter banner, only do 1 pull for starter mission, get an invite code, find a sensei, save pull for next patch
and doing weekly/biweekly tasks
hello im looking for a sensei. how can i find one? i need one
it is canon but most of it just explains what happens prior to the game story
they matter if you wanna get the reference but the game still explains the story more than enough
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
you just need to provide your ingame uid and ppl can add you
if you're in a different server than NA you'd get someone from that server
nah im good id rather have you be my sensei
but nvm
i'll get my user id. I need help from good pro players like you guys
can i add you?
sure you could do that too
will i be able to borrow characters?
youre also always welcome to ask in here
we have a lot of guides in this channel
ingame sensei is mostly just for mission and reward
no, but most of the story and events give you trials you can play
ohhhhh i see so thats what you meant. i was looking for someone i could call sensei for fun earlier but nvm
oh lmao
108837601 . And yeah it's for rewards tho if it's more convenient I can also answer questions ingame instead of discord
you can still have em as your ingame sensei since the rewards are worth it
alright bet. the sooner the sensei the better the student
im downloading the game rn at 1% currently (i just started I thought i downloaded it already oops)
many such cases
ikr i felt like i downloaded the game but i only downloaded it outside of launching the app. but downloading it inside the game is like so different and a extra step i almost missed it
is my game bugged or is there barely any voice acting at the start of the gameplay or something
try #đtechnical-help
i usually mute the game and it was too long ago, can't remember
Its probably because you only downloaded the needed sources for the game
It happened to me as well when I started my account again
better ask in #đtechnical-help
probably need captain role
how do i get a PRE-ARM?
which weapons can?
how tf do u solve this
equipment foundry should show all the weaps available for pri
first make sure u got the fire fuel thing, then go to the torch on bottom right
and light it up using that fuel thing u get
where do you get the fire fuel thing?
you can craft it
thats what i was thinking. i had one in my inventory to light up a campfire, idk where it came from
you made it at the playground place
mkay wait imma do that
it is called creative workshop or something at the middle right
and assuming you have the mats for it , you can craft it
welp guess im not completing phase 9 i have nothing that can be pre-arm TwT imma wait till next patch
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
thanks afklord
new player here, how to lv up fast?
Do your daily BP missions and clear story with the stamina potions you get
about clear story with the stamina, where is it
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
tysm!
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
when will the anniversary event happen again this year?
CN anni is next patch
Outside of personal damage, do sparkle/hohe have no reason to use their stellar shift in loa team?
you switch into them to reapply their buffs and charge ari
GLB anni happen during CNY patch
where do i buy the arc city background?
so it should be 8.7
do we know a date?
but the latter is only outside of stellar outburst right
at earliest, assume each upcomming patch is 8 weeks, at latest, assume each upcomming patch is 10 weeks
we cant know for sure since patches change in duration
someone has the estimated date but not me, can ask in #đźcn-gameplay-discussion
you are thinking of heavenly link, it has a cooldown on ari charging through qte
but when you enter stellar outburst their own ari skill refreshes and lets them generate more ari as they would before stellar outburst (one time per outburst)
so stellar drain?
ye
...
wait a minute
also sparkle buffs are passive and don't need refreshing
and hohe stig set refreshes on entering stellar outburst
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
So outburst is only active during stellar shift/augmented ascension?
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
for LoA you can loosely think that way. I'm rusty on the details here. Maybe it works on stellar assault too (the initial one hit you deal when pressing the big button)
they all have the same value 
compared to the actual dps insignificant, but its a decent amount itself
Wow what is this phys erasure
is there seriously never ever going to be part1 characters in supply anymore?
probably not
but they'll be available through other sources like Reserve work or war treasury
some have been in spending events
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
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
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
you can check out this site to see past schedules but overall yeah don't expect gacha reruns of old non astral ring valk at this point https://www.arustats.com/en-us/hi3/timeline/8.4
if you already have 18 balls you'll probably have enough once she's in reserve work
also i'm sorry i missed your question in the other channel earlier. Good of you to move it here
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!!
it's more of a we don't know for sure since hoyo can just drop random banners out of nothing but it's highly unlikely

sry dont know mutch friends help me guiding mutch thrue
