if you see a pattern, it might very well just have been luck

unique sphinx
#

None of her cons boost ER so I think it's not wrong to assume her particle generation is high enough for her to not have ER issues

lunar zealot
#

reminder that qiqi exists

unique sphinx
lunar zealot
#

similar E, no particle gen. mihoyo doesnt make self sufficient kits without ER need usually

lunar zealot
unique sphinx
#

Ya but they made an attempt to fix it

lunar zealot
#

tbh, she will not need ER bcz her ult suxx as of right now

unique sphinx
#

True

#

We gotta wait for like a week and hope that they fix her

lunar zealot
#

but if you want her ult, you ll need ER, she cant funnel her own particles on herself since they are released over time and shinobu doesnt stay on the field

#

or you need raiden

timber viper
#

I'm thinking of running Itto, Zhongli, Albedo, Kuki Shinobu. Based on what we know, can she act as the 'fischl' of this team + healing?

regal epoch
#

I feel like she won't need a ton of er though

#

Like definitely a good amount but not too much

#

Or you can just ignore her Q and not build er

#

If only we had an hp% sword

timber viper

lunar zealot
# regal epoch I feel like she won't need a ton of er though

if you want to see how much ER she needs compare with other character generating particles over time and not staying on field. xiangling and yae for instance. both want either big ER, funneling, Raiden, other batteries from same element and often a combination of those

plush mirage
#

There's also fischl barely needing er

#

60 cost is miles better than xl or yae in example

lunar zealot
#

fischl still uses stuff like battery from same element, she seems like a better battery that Kuki herself since she can proc once per sec tho we dont know the proc rate of Kuki. also fischl doesnt need her ult every 15 sec since she has her E. Fischl is a 60 cost unit, but not a 15sec one

robust timber
lunar zealot
#

the only team where u want to have her ult every 18 or 20 sec, is Raiden comp, and in Raiden comp, well, there is raiden that regens ults

robust timber
#

it's in pins

lunar zealot
#

the video is far from enough of a sample to know the particle proc rate

robust timber
#

true

plush mirage
robust timber
#

we dont even know if its rng or not

#

There are also a lot of comps with>20s rotations

spare torrent
#

I know what Shinobu needs. Her C6 should provide 20% Shred.

#

That'd make her perfect.

nova sierra
#

Yo mama?

#

Lol

#

i hate myself

woven locust
#

so what kuki brings on table is heal + doing dmg + aoe electro appli + anything else???

tardy cosmos
#

battery

tawdry bone
#

I thought she's not a great dmg dealer

modern junco
#

No one said good damageC_HuJerry

#

Does do damage though lol

tardy cosmos
#

better than qiqi E_pepelol

regal epoch
vapid nest
#

so kuki can be used to replace raiden in my hyper miko teamm

supple snow
#

🤔 maybe

#

But raiden more dmg eyes closed

amber plover
#

Raiden can extend the rotation depending on the comp which may be a dps loss

true mesa
#

Hows kuki will be another xinyan or gorou?

polar spruce
#

Should i go for hp or em mainstat for kuki?

To 10 at c2

How many particles does she generate per E again ?

Can each skill hit do a reaction? Or icd fks up?

That's great honestly

#

How's 4tom hp/dmg/cr as an artifact goal, is there another potentially good option?

lunar zealot
#

for kinda similar result as pure healing clam build

#

and EM build in Overload comp

stone jacinth
#

Which one has better potential at lower constellation A_HmmTao

lunar zealot
#

id say they are kinda the same. clam get better fast at c2, and DMG crit gets better at c4 c5

#

and dmg crit build should have the higher ceiling

#

but the difference, when you look at the constell cost, the "PJC cost", and the substat cost, is not that impressive

stone jacinth
#

Time to camp tom domain for another month it seems

#

Thanks romanA_NoteTao

lunar zealot
#

and the fact dmg crit requires ER and requires to play at low health more than the other builds

stone jacinth
#

Since the damage difference is marginal I'll take tom since I'm running hyper Raiden with her

lunar zealot
#

with Raiden you shouldnt need any ER on Kuki. and being able to hold ToM is one of the biggest advantage of going DMG Crit build

dapper flint
#

is kuki dmg on skill from max hp either like her healing ?

small turtle
#

nope, all dmg from her skill scales off ATK

shrewd crescent
#

Waiting for that hp scaling change

#

But I wonder what would happen to c4 then in terms of value

lunar zealot
# shrewd crescent Waiting for that hp scaling change

i don't think that will happen. what's unfair to me right now is that a build based on her skill is as relevant as the burst based build while being advantageous on many points. If anything, the build that requires ER, playing low health, high investment, and keeping an enemy in an area for 3.5 sec should have bigger reward. Imo, what needs a buff is the ult

shrewd crescent
#

In what area? Tick interval or MVs

uncut lynx
#

is she gonna be better phys superconduct or burst dps? i wanna build her for dmg

unborn ridge
#

So Shinobu is a good character?

lunar zealot
#

tick interval would be better, but as long as they buff the total MVs it's ok

tardy cosmos
unborn ridge
#

Hmmm ok

#

And will it be useful in specific areas of the game?

tardy cosmos
#

she fills this niche

  • 100% totm uptime at C2
  • can use cinnabar spindle
  • can heal and use clam
  • em is not a wasted stat (can be BiS even)
  • healer that can damage and proc electro for reaction
  • can be used to tank emergency hit at c6
lunar zealot
#

she suffers a lot from the comparison with Bennett tbh

#

both are healers with 15 sec rotation

#

bennett will almost always (if not always) deal more through his buff to mates

#

and even in the Kiku overload build, it implies playing with pyro units. And if you play with Pyro units, Bennett is a no brainer

#

wanna play with raiden? bennett exists

unborn ridge
#

Hmm ok, I'm starting to understand how the character works, basically I loved his design, now I'm starting to appreciate his kit

unborn ridge
lunar zealot
#

well, yes and no. you are most likely to annihilate the small enemies that could be annoying with overload's knockback. The big enemies that actually ask you to deal big DPS are not yeeted by overload

#

overload is annoying, but on targets that die fast

green wave

tardy cosmos
small turtle
#
  • her base def is actually decent
tardy cosmos
#

you need a sword that gives her like 150-200% skill damage to make them stronger than cinnabar, skill wise

shrewd crescent
#

It's a good reaction to add some damage depending on the comp tbh

green wave
#

hm, wouldn’t iron sting still be better?

tardy cosmos
#

my target build is
cinnabar / iron sting
clam, em em em

dapper walrus
#

guys im gonna make a shinobu gear (artifacts & weapons) gdoc- can anyone give me some suggestions on the weapons and artifacts

small turtle
#

i still need more test sheeting with iron sting, but in the healingg department, if i can replicatie the same subs whilst adding reactions such as EC and overload, idk if it will be good. Im just waiting for ICD to perform reaction sheeting

tardy cosmos
green wave
#

If im gonna build someone w clam it has to be kokomi, I’ve been dodging it for too long

tardy cosmos
#

the first omniscaling build A_HuOmegaLOL

small turtle
#

i think i had too much Copium

#

talking about overload made me think CW will be viable

tardy cosmos
#

you can also always give kuki AP I guess

#

Zhongli, Kuki Shinobu, Yae/Beidou, another geo (Gorou?)

small turtle
#

in Archaic Sakura i cant

#

cause the buff aint reaching raiden if its not on yae

#

which is sad

tardy cosmos
#

physical kuki shinobu

#

or electro kuki shinobu with cinnabar

shrewd crescent
small turtle
#

i could fit a kuki downtime between raiden and yae but that will add more time

#

ill explore this

#

i could actually get 15 hits

shrewd crescent

For?

tired berry
tardy cosmos
#

geo + kuki on field def build will make her immortal

night helm
#

Simply PJC

#

@ me when we know exactly how EM affects her E

tired berry
tardy cosmos
#

pjc + hp sands increase kuki's skill scaling by 342-ish
cinnabar + def sands increase kuki's skill scaling by 311-ish

#

iron sting + em sands increase kuki's skill scaling by 88

small turtle
#

just give us ICD

#

istg ICD will come out when i am going to sleep

night helm
#

@tardy cosmos what assumption are you making for how her EM passive modifies her damage

tardy cosmos
night helm
#

I hope not

small turtle
#

thats too low

tardy cosmos
#

Thoma A4
DMG dealt by Crimson Ooyoroi's Fiery Collapse is increased by 2.2% of Thoma's Max HP.

Shinobu's A4
·DMG dealt is increased by 25% of Elemental Mastery.

small turtle
#

thats why i think the healing one is flat, the dmg one is additive

night helm
#

Yeah they're trolling otherwise

small turtle
#

imagine you have 20 em

#

how much flat dmg would that give u

night helm
#

100 EM!

small turtle
night helm
#

25 DMG

tardy cosmos
#

em build is good because you can get 20k overload every 3s with a proper comp

small turtle
#

but i can see it bypass with some reactions

night helm
#

It is totally inconsequential

keen sinew
#

So we all agree there is no real point in giving kuki a lot of em?

night helm
#

Might as well not exist

night helm
small turtle
#

not really agreeing

night helm
#

Have to wait and see

small turtle
#

still valuable

#

makes EM not a dead stat either way

tardy cosmos
#

sheet by @simple cypress

night helm
#

+1% DMG!

tardy cosmos
#

triple em actually have the highest cumulative dmg

night helm
#

remove the passive

#

And see how much the numbers change

small turtle
#

@tardy cosmos did they do overload with burst?

tardy cosmos
glad harness
#

and c4 not included

tardy cosmos
#

it's not about overload is strong
it's more like shinobu's scaling is that weak E_pepelol

uncut lynx
#

does kuki have good burst scaling?

small turtle
#

also 11 cr C_HuSusge

HP is the way to go

Like if we was gonna give her em then what are we gonna give her?

tardy cosmos
tardy cosmos
small turtle
#

the em one

tardy cosmos
keen sinew
#

Like I see no reason to give her em since all her healing is from HP. Giving her em would really be only help her reaction dmg

tardy cosmos
#

at like around 50% of hp stats worth

vestal jetty
vestal jetty
#

okie bet bet, if we want big oomfie heals i'd guess the ideal build is just hp/hp/healing bonus + clam ?

keen sinew
small turtle
#

zoom, how about EM / DMG / EM A_HmmTao

small turtle
#

iron sting

#

f2p friendly more dmg

tardy cosmos
#

the dmg% will be hindered by the lack of crits, dont you think A_ThinkTao

#

need calcs either way

small turtle
#

put 10 dist rolls on crit

#

should be fine C_KEKTao

tardy cosmos
#

the solution is having both hp and def sands D_ZhongOMEGA + cinnabar

keen sinew
#

Plus her electro DMG will be low since the % is low for both skill and burst

small turtle
#

to flex 32.1% def

tardy cosmos
small turtle
#

ik it makes sense

tardy cosmos
small turtle
#

that piece is just

shrewd crescent
#

That is the most painful thing I've ever seen

small turtle

idk if i should C_KEKTao or C_KEKTaoWait

keen sinew
#

Wait why give her def?

tardy cosmos
#

my kok has better def than attack

shrewd crescent
# keen sinew Wait why give her def?

Because zoom has been scorned so many times by Def% that the cope that def would be good actually turned out to be true and is a good option with Cinnabar

keen sinew

🤣

you want future artifact that fit your shitty build
I want future build that fit my shitty artifact

what happened to the 4 ap cult

tardy cosmos

4ap kuki actually make sense tho

#

4ap def/elec/crit
D_ZhongOMEGA

small turtle
#

sorta, but i have to take rotation timing dependant to the comp

#

when raiden has a 9 second burst window

#

and ap has 10

green wave

hmm

#

what about HP/HP/CRIT and cinnabar

tardy cosmos
#

zl totm

small turtle
#

i have the same idea but yae and raiden

#

zl totm and kuki ap, finally can put yae on a proper gear

tardy cosmos

i dont have yae C_HuCryge

small turtle
#

have you look at the current one without kuki?

dapper walrus

guys how do we calculate healing bonus

its basically flat hp x healing bonus percent, right?

does anyone know what artifact set (including main and sub stats) + weapon go with shinobu?

dapper walrus
thorn nest
#

whats totm?

dapper walrus
#

why cinnabar: amps up her skill dmg

dapper walrus
#

the 4pc bonus is a very nice for her & the 2pc provides hp

alternative is the ocean hued clam, kokomi's set

thorn nest

ohhh i see, what about stats on the artifacts?

tardy cosmos

B_ZhongHmm hello kuki fans

dapper walrus

hello

:>>

craggy yew
#

what is our progress so far?

dapper walrus
#

we have assumptions and estimates on what gear we should put on her

#

artifact stats is a bit complicated tho due to the split scaling

tardy cosmos
#

and how weak kuki's scaling is

dapper walrus
#

we've deemed that her a4 em passive needs a buff

craggy yew
dapper walrus
#

we've also deemed cinnabar spindle a good option that buffs her skill

#

best so far

shrewd crescent
dapper walrus
#

then um.. best sets are either totm or clam

dapper walrus
shrewd crescent
small turtle
#

a4 doesnt need a buff, its needs a complete rework

shrewd crescent

Dude has been hurt too many times by def rollsnC_HuPepeSmile

small turtle
#

the EM passive aint cutting it

craggy yew
shrewd crescent
small turtle
#

imo

small turtle
dapper walrus
#

according to zoom.. uh, kuki doesnt need any def investment if u run cinnabar on her since it already provides a lot of def

#

so u can run 4pc totm and cinnabar, no problems

shrewd crescent
#

Also where does one go to learn about sheets cause I wanna sheet something with Kuki C_HuPepeSmile

craggy yew

A_ThumbsupTao i think thats good enough as initial feedback, let see soon the adjustments

dapper walrus

#

most of the build guides with sheets are there

dapper flint
#

is item that for lvl up kuki, using from ruin serpent ?

dapper walrus
dapper walrus
#

the ruin serpent drops her mats

#

for talents she uses the raiden boss

#

naku weed is her plant

#

iirc she uses elegance

glad turret
dapper flint
dapper walrus
#

so u can slap on a 4pc totm with hp/hp/hp and equip cinnabar and have no problems

glad turret
#

so def is not needed on her? its just the weapon’s passive that is good for her?

dapper walrus
#

yes

glad turret
#

thank you so so much! HappyGuoba

Her skill hits many times but with low scaling

#

Cinnabar spindle fixes the low scaling

dapper walrus

the only def investment on kuki would be from the weapon itself but that alone can suffice

shrewd crescent
orchid folio
#

Yes emblem of and electro dmg% are additive

mystic merlin
#

Sounds pog guys

orchid folio
#

Almost everything is additive btw very few things are entirely separate multipliers

icy granite
orchid folio
#

It's a bit more complicated than that since true multipliers only affect base MV and not anything added

icy granite
#

I see

orchid folio
#

So for example xingqiu c4 is a true multiplier if 1.5 times on his skill damage

#

But if you have cinnabar spindle, you add 80% def mv to the skill. That is not multiplied by the 1.5 multiplier since it is not base MV.

icy granite
#

I see

I find 4clam as a wasted artefacts slots, I just don't like this set and I've whaled for Kokomi like. I popped off when her set was announced, farmed it for her just to find out that 4 ToTM is still better in my case A_HuSadge (I farmed 4 husk but you know how it goes)

tardy cosmos

#

Also is 4U and 4C cryo the same thing just one is apply units of cryo and the other is decay time respectively C_HuCryge

orchid folio

I think technically A B and C are used for auras

orchid folio
#

You use U for geo and anemo

shrewd crescent
small turtle
#

but if you have 2b of cryo that interacts with 1A of pyro that triggers reverse melt, there will be 1A of pyro left as iirc a rule is being followed here where the first decay that is applied will be the existing decay that will be inputted to the remaining gauge left when a reaction is triggered

Or for application of elements in general

Bennett and jean moment

small turtle
#

if she is really for healing, then so be it. Its still pre-tc, changes will happen sooner or later

#

she still an decent unit imo in some comps

if she was another element she'd have more comps

i like to play as her a lot too

her kit is nice

to me

and like everything abt is her is just soooo pretty

hallow lark
#

Kuki is a really nice fit in EC comps

#

Maybe for physical comps too

strange panther
#

i wish she could infuse her weapon with electro keqing who

#

if she was made to be a dps they would probably have done that

Who can heal, give shield and buff ur EM at c6

heya fellow kukipiumers 🙂

#

any new build ideas? after some thoughts, I have three

little charm
#

any thoughts

last flare
#

mmmh, my thoughts about Shinobu as main dps is that her kit is completly anti-synergitic to that role

#

but to be fair, some character's best builds are counter-intuitive to their kit (hahem Aloy)

#

yes I am aware

more energy generation with Sac bow, though

prolly the most synergetic unit with Shinobu, tbh

chilly flare
#

yoimiya fischl beidou zhongli go brr

#

wouldn't even need zl, just run xq

That would be enough interrupt resist

last flare

#

And also more damage

chilly flare
#

i would not manage tbh ahaha i need either a dedicated healer or zhongli

chilly flare

Also beidou xq reduces like 50% of incoming dmg lol

fireworks is also really fun tbh with xingqiu and fischl havent played that in a while

last flare
#

I'll never play without a healer, I can't, it's against my religion 😮

chilly flare
#

then guess you dont have zhongli cause fr you dont need a healer with him ahaha

#

but i get u having a healer makes me feel more safe

little charm
#

just dodge 👍

last flare
#

I have Zhongli on the cheapest Shieldbot build I could manage

#

but still want some healz

crimson oasis
#

Kuki's Q hits hella fast and might actually do something for overload comps

chilly flare

if you dodge youd be interrupting youmiyas attacks all the time C_HuCryge

Considering kuki still kinda builds EM a little

I said a little

chilly flare

It's 7-13 ticks. So like 3 applications. Nothing crazy

HP is better but you can't get artifacts with hp flat hp flat hp percent and hp percent XD

amber plover

I'm eager to try comps with a Sucrose/Yae/Shinobu core
Sucrose boosts the EM of everyone and said boost counts for Yae's and Shinobu's passives

bc i don't see the use of Q otherwise

#

btw, Noblesse Oblige might be the best set for sub-dps/buffer Shinobu, since most of her damage comes from her burst

I think totm is better over noblesse

chilly flare
#

oh i thought tenacity was one of her bis

#

id rather go for that you get a constant buff

amber plover
#

Totm sounds much better

last flare
chilly flare
#

clam is alright but idk how much damage shed do, shes supposed to support you so tenacity is better

crimson oasis
#

Noblesse actually does damage yes

last flare
#

I think in both cases, you want Favonius sword and build some crit

chilly flare
#

unless you want her subdps ofc u can build characters however u want

crimson oasis
#

Not sure about that lol

little charm
#

well idk I think the 100% uptime totm is better? U also get the hp%

#

How much damage will she really be doing w noblesse like it don't seem that high anyways

amber plover
#

The difference shouldn't be big anyway

last flare
crimson oasis
#

Also noblesse is actually used by more characters so you likely have better artis of it

little charm
#

fair

chilly flare
#

also true

#

idk guess it depends if you want her full healer or want her to do some damage your choice

last flare
#

mmmh, my bad, 80% uptime for Noblesse...the same as Bennett

crimson oasis
#

Last night they did some clam testing and it actually seemed pretty promising

amber plover
#

Besides sets I think hp/dmg/crit is the play to capitlaise from the burst

#

An E bot build sounds fun tho

last flare
chilly flare
#

ye i was thinking of doing hp/hp/crit

#

then if she doesnt heal enough ill just stick with hp circlet too

last flare
#

did some calculation, with a traditional dps build, with HP scaling, you're looking at roughly 2500 healing per tick

amber plover
#

Sounds great

chilly flare
#

YOOO thats good

crimson oasis
#

What's her scaling of heal again? At talent 9

chilly flare
#

keep in mind some em too and even more

last flare
#

with HP/HP/HB, it's more around 4000, 4600+ with full Clam build

#

at talent 11, level 80

crimson oasis
#

Ah yeah her healing isn't super big, she definitely needs atleast a hp sands

shrewd crescent
crimson oasis
#

That's about half of bennett (bennett is at 10.2% + 1174)

last flare
crimson oasis
#

And we build bennett as atk(or ER)/pyro/crit

last flare
crimson oasis
last flare
#

mmmh, you're looking at lower heals then

little charm
#

is clam worth on her?

last flare
#

2200 then

last flare
crimson oasis
#

I mean the point was.. We don't build HP on bennett because his heals are perfectly fine as is with atk(or er)/pyro/crit

#

So we wouldn't need it on kuki either, but her scaling is worse than bennett's

#

so we might

#

Some people build HP on bennett but I don't talk to those people

skill issue

then don't talk to me ^^

Probably shouldn't use this anymore
This was before burst was revealed
The ADC has an error
And the number of E and C4 ticks are wrong too

And it uses favonius, which isn't exactly favorable to the rest of the builds

I did update it with fixes and included an HP HP Crit build which turned out pretty decent

I really want 3 EM Overload to work, but it really depends on the comp, which I've yet to even begin to think about, much less calc

How is Kuki's batterying? Can she battery for Yae or is Yae still bound to fischl or raiden?

||I think all these EM and DEF builds are meme||

focusing on her E and not just using HP which affects both

Missing crit and dmg%

dapper walrus

substats

night helm
dapper walrus
#

or replace the hb/hp circlet with crit

#

electro dmg bonus = sara buff

night helm
#

That's 6 seconds of crit damage and an atk buff

dapper walrus
#

really, theres a lot of ways to build her- it just so happens that if u build her as everything it wont work

#

you cant build her as an all out healer and an all out damage dealer

#

so its either you pick one side or somehow do 75/25

night helm
#

When was building healing ever necessary?

#

HP does scale it

#

Surely yhats enough

dapper walrus
#

specifically comps that replace bennett with kuki

dapper walrus
night helm
#

Yes so even more healing

dapper walrus
#

ofc, if only c0 u can build her hp/elec/crit and call it a day

night helm
#

No reason to sacrifice damage for more healing

dapper walrus
#

well not every kuki enjoyer plans to build her as a dps

night helm
#

I wish it was the case that it was necessary

dapper walrus
#

as i said, there many ways to build her- it just so happens that building her purely dmg (no hp on artifacts excluding flower) would be a waste of her healing ability

#

she is after all, the first electro healer

night helm
dapper walrus
#

im not saying u cant use her as a dps- but investing into hp and em is still necessary

#

it buffs her

#

now if you'll excuse me i have some homework to do

night helm
#

I don't think you've understood what I said, or the point I was trying to make

#

nevermind

last flare
#

the question is whether the healing from a conventional dps build will be enough or not

#

and the answer will depend on the player

dapper walrus
#

apologies

unique sphinx
#

so do we know Shinobu's particle generation yet

dapper walrus
#

bruh i said i apologized why tf u rolling ur eyes like that smh

night helm
#

Do your homework

crimson oasis
#

How do we even interpret this? Does this mean that if you have 100 EM her healing gets buffed by 75% ???

night helm
#

We don't know

#

Until a tester says

night helm
#

Or we get her in game

#

It's speculation for us at this point

rare abyss
#

hmm

night helm
#

"This is what makes sense to me" "this is how I think it works"

#

Ok

unborn oyster
crimson oasis
#

So if you have 100 EM, then 1 tick of healing is a flat 75HP

#

Damn that sounds absolutely garbage????

unborn oyster
#

is 4pc tenacity good ?

unique sphinx
rare abyss
rare abyss
unborn oyster
#

better build HP I guess

crimson oasis
#

Yeah I'm just building a sheet rn so I can do my own calcs

Still WIP

unborn oyster
#

if you have 500 EM you get +375 heal and +125 DMG

unique sphinx
#

btw do we know her particle generation yet?

unborn oyster
#

would be so nice if every tick gave a particle

#

but idk

rare abyss
#

one particle every E hit

unborn oyster
#

not bad

unique sphinx
#

oh so 1 every 3s

rare abyss
#

yep

unique sphinx
#

it's good enough for her 60 cost burst ig

unborn oyster
#

yeah

unique sphinx
#

might need a little bit of ER

#

but not much

unborn oyster
#

if you have Raiden there is not even burst cost, its the cooldown that will be your ennemy

#

It looks like 66% chance for particle in each skill here

#

But we need more evidence

Good news is there is no particle gen ICD, each tick can create a particle

#

hits are 1.5 seconds apart

unborn oyster

yeah, so a bit earlier I asked if tenacity was good but also what are the others good artifact sets on her ?

#

to see what I would prefer to farm actually A_LOLTao

orchid folio
#

Tenacity and clam look to be the best for now

tardy cosmos
#

tenacity, clam, noblesse, pf, ap, all have potential

unique sphinx
#

Ya Tenacity looks the best so far cuz you get 20% more hp on her and a team wide 20% atk buff which has 100% uptime at C2

unborn oyster
#

sorry but whats ap and pf

#

(yes I don't have the game in english)

#

oh pf is physical set

#

oh wait nvm ap is petra thing ?

simple cypress
unborn oyster
#

alright tenacity is probably still better for me to farm but I have a full clam set already if im lazy

#

and I also still need to farm pale flame for my physical bennett (yes a meme build even tho I don't have aquila)

lunar zealot
#

technically you have almost 100% uptime on Tenacity wiithout c2

#

E deals damages on cast, the last proc is 3sec before the CD resets (or less than 3secs accounting cast time), tenacity lingers 3sec

#

just sayin

green wave

cinnabar or iron sting? I have one billet and i wanna use it to r5 anemoma

median sapphire

i think you'll probably want iron sting

I think you'll probably want Cinnabar

But her kit could get buffed a little to where Cinnabar isn't the best option for damage anymore.

per tick right

crimson oasis

229 is the tick

median sapphire
#

wait, that's like... really low E_PoliwhirlConcern

crimson oasis

I can't help it the scaling is only 6% of atk XD

median sapphire

SIX

#

i-

tardy cosmos

that's 6% of hp

#

iirc

crimson oasis
#

OH ITS BASED ON HP!?

skill scales off of atk
burst scales off of hp

just redo the burst tbh

yea everything else shud be fine

woooo

crimson oasis

I just meant, I gotta change this for all the sets I did

median sapphire

hang on

#

what if you use kuki and amber burst together

#

amber burst has no icd right

#

what if kuki burst also no icd

#

overload go pew pew

supple snow
crimson oasis
#

Healing is per tick

#

I could add the total heal as well but I think that's clutter

#

For damage it's less cluttery imo

#

Just because you don't care that your overall heal is 20k, you wanna know how much each tick is so you know to what degree you can have skill issue and not die

tardy cosmos
#

you might want to calc Petra as well

#

this looks wrong 695 -> 26k

crimson oasis
#

1 takeaway from this is that IF you can get 3 overloads, going EM is gonna be poggies for Q damage. The em-em-em build needs to overload twice and already does 10k more than a hp-elec-crit build

crimson oasis
#

All of them are fixed now

I've been working at it for a while I guess I just got dizzy from all the different modifiers

Wrong reply, goddamn Discord

crimson oasis

EM in an ec comp will most likely be wasted tho

bc usually hydro is getting the EM

Atleast in like yae-kuki-xq-sucrose or sumn

unlike kokomi taser, sucrose taser with kuki as healer seems promising

hmm so fischl is better?

tawdry bone
#

Fischl should be ok tho I guess.

crimson oasis
#

Yeah I remember in childe fireworks, fischl and beidou are both irregularly stealing ec's

tardy cosmos

I'm thinking that sucrose can double swirl and then chain react

tawdry bone
#

Yeah sucrose is supposed to take EC ownership in multitarget

#

but Beidou is like "lol no"

#

Fischl is no big deal

tardy cosmos
#

because it bounce back right

crimson oasis
#

I don't rotation calc but using venti might actually be interesting for kuki's Q

tawdry bone
#

I don't understand the rules, I think it has something to do with the aura application rate
