and that this monument happened

summer flower
#

What do you mean ?

civic wolf
summer flower
#

What was % of DMG In Teams for her?

frozen tide
#

One thing ppl don't talk about lr is that doing non bosses can be really aids with rite

rare zodiac
#

Compared to Yvonne who is barely useable with max invest?

frozen tide
#

Esp with ard variant teams

drifting quest
#

issue is as bad as lr is out of bossing

#

yvonne is just as bad

#

as bad as lr is on sundered

#

she's still ahead of yvonne in bossing

frozen tide
#

Im not arguing for yvonne

#

I just meant in general

#

Lr stinks at doing mat farms

#

šŸ”„

civic wolf
#

idk, the monument that dropped today made me a bit wary about LR's actual strength cuz

rare zodiac
#

I think all ST char gonna suffer in AoE content

civic wolf
#

the 2nd stage feels like its made in a way to be hilariously anti melee

#

making Yvonne look favorable lol

frozen tide
#

You can do btks with xaihi

rare zodiac
#

Just dodge PerliWheeze

frozen tide
#

Just control xai with the normal rots

civic wolf
#

yeah dodging and NEVER landing the final strike

drifting quest
#

this is the yvonne shill umbral

#

fwiw

#

it is the best she will ever look

frozen tide
#

If you use xai as controlled and just do the normal rite bs cs and ult

#

Should be fine if ranged btk is rly that important

how about for ardelia? she could still work although it would be pretty scuffed. even if I pulled for gilberta, her bp weapon probably won't have as strong debuffs compared to ardelia's and there's also her arts suciptibility which lasts for 30 seconds and her weapon buff lasts for 25. Like do you thinkj I should pull for Gilberta for that comfort or just run her with ardelia rn?

civic wolf
#

i tried to Lava it and gave up and did my agony clear with Yvonne lol

edgy crater
#

or being poor man choice called using defender to cancel their charge

civic wolf
#

but yeah like, i wanted to do a 2nd main DPS cuz i got bored with Lava

#

but im hesitant to spend whole 80 pulls on LR sig

#

is Yvonne actually worthwhile in this case?

edgy crater
civic wolf
#

cuz i can just use Navi instead of Artzy

oak vigil
civic wolf
#

i have Gilberta if thats a concern

Does anyone know what the rewards are for the next part of Umbrial yet, IE how many crowns we get & what other resources? 108_yaehmm

drifting quest
#

permanent content

rare zodiac
#

Should be identical no?

#

Why would it change?

leaden mantle
daring dove
drifting quest
#

sounds about right

daring dove
#

Forgot the all important T-Creds but yeah ok cool that's something at least.

#

I should if I'm lucky be able to max LR's ultimate today then.

leaden mantle
stiff eagle
#

Don’t you get a crown per stage so 6 total?

midnight stirrup
#

I mean yeah Ardelia has better debuffs than Gilberta

#

But not by that much and lacks cc

rare zodiac
#

I gonna hold pull to my dear life until there is someone that have synergy with Lae, or when we need 2nd team

midnight stirrup
rare zodiac
oak vigil
#

So, like, really, only if you enjoy the character - pull. Don't let 'optimization dreams' dictate your wallet

daring dove
#

What's everyone's take on Xaihi, for me her buffing potential seems the strongest out of all the 5* / 4* operators. So I'm thinking putting a bit more investment into her as she seems like she'll be strong for a long time? 108_yaehmm

rare zodiac
#

Trim is not that difficult if you understand the game

midnight stirrup
#

A higher duration of a slightly smaller debuff can mean more dps overall

frozen tide
#

If you have even a shallow understanding on every basic aspect of the game you can trim

midnight stirrup
valid palm
leaden mantle
frozen tide
#

Can you build a half decent team with somewhat optimized operators and can you do simple rotations consistently

oak vigil
frozen tide
#

Congratulations you can trim if you qualify for all of those

valid palm
#

The only time Xaihi won't be a good slot on a Cryo team is if for some reason you are just NEVER Final Striking, but with how Stagger/SP gen works in this game I doubt that's almost ever going to be the case

leaden mantle
#

wouldn't be able to trigger ardelia's combo then

oak vigil
#

Then yeah, Xaihi

oak vigil
#

Or Even Akekuri, she can trigger are reaction too- The point is, there is enough room to wiggle in with experimentation

valid palm
#

I have to say, I am pleasantly surprised by the strength of the 4 stars in this game

#

in general

peak void
#

apparently laevatain/xaihi/akekuri is 5.86% more efficient than laevatain/xaihi/wulfgard in dijiang for operator exp

#

for anyone interested

oak vigil
#

That's... really specific, damn

#

Not complaining

sterile patrol
frozen tide
#

Im interested in the optimal dijiang setup with only operators lvl 40 and 60s

peak void
#

40s is rough lol

frozen tide
#

I do not want to 80/90 ops just for dijiang

daring dove
peak void
#

i could math it out but like someone should honestly just make a dijiang op calc atp

leaden mantle
valid palm
#

I was expecting that the 4 stars would basically be like '3 stars' here and just be fodder, but most of them are actually pretty usable. 4 star here still feels like 4 star, with 6 stars as 5 stars. This game's 5 stars feel more like '4.5' stars

frozen tide
#

Very well worth consideration

midnight stirrup
#

Should crown her ult regardless, but ur not locked in with LR afaik

#

So 9 should be fine

frozen tide
#

Actually

#

I don't think theres any other pure supp in the game worth taking to 90 like that

midnight stirrup
#

Xaihi should see future value tho

#

Same for Gilb

frozen tide
#

If you are building gilb for dmg sure ig

#

Oh you meant future proof not investment

midnight stirrup
#

Does leveling give art intensity?

frozen tide
#

Don't believe so

midnight stirrup
#

Oh

#

Id say Pog otherwise

oak vigil
stiff eagle
midnight stirrup
#

How impactful is breach for damage

halcyon lark
midnight stirrup
#

That doesnt answer it

stiff eagle
#

Honestly, no idea, I’ve been told it’s important but haven’t seen any specific values

humble matrix
halcyon lark
#

Its hard to calculate but if you look at how ardelia works i'd say its pretty good.

sterile patrol
frozen tide
#

Yeah id say pog qualifies

halcyon lark
frozen tide
#

Oh

#

Lmfao

stiff eagle
#

Wait does the dr reduction from breach not scale of level

midnight stirrup
#

Yea dont bother with Pog then

frozen tide
#

Nvm just keep him 80/90 for m1s

midnight stirrup
#

Xaihi the only 90 then

stiff eagle
#

My bad, did not know that

midnight stirrup
frozen tide
midnight stirrup
#

Anyway

halcyon lark
midnight stirrup
#

Investing in Gilb/Xaihi seems like a good idea regardless

peak void
#

just gonna dump number here
Dijiang op exp farm

Laevatain/xaihi/wulfgard
374 efficiency, 6 mood drop/hr
100/6 = 16.67 hrs
374x16.67 = 6233.33

Laevatain/xaihi/akekuri
330 efficiency, 5 mood drop/hr
100/5 = 20 hrs
330x20 = 6600

6600/6233.33 = 1.0588
akekuri 5.88% more efficient than wulfgard

midnight stirrup
#

Not only for cryo but future nature dps

halcyon lark
#

PerliWheeze She got hit by a nerf bat once can't say it won't happen again.

Im only missing Yvonne

And im fine with that

Cause nobody really pulls just for them you can't

Theres this person who count exp does anyone know how many exp you need for lv 53?

lvl 54 > 55 = 23400 xp
lvl 55 > 56 = 27000 xp
lvl 56 > 57 = 30960 xp
lvl 57 > 58 = 35280 xp
lvl 58 > 59 = x
lvl 59 > 60 = x

Theres this person who count exp does anyone know how many exp you need for lv 53?

Akekuri even acts a bit like a Shiba Inu, constantly wanting to just help & do things 24/7 without a moments rest. E_PoliwhirlConcern

frozen tide
elfin smelt
#

maybe we will have modules PerliFumo

oak vigil
#

Tbh just give Yvonne's ultimate stance heavy armor and I think it will be fixed (IGNORING ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM THAT YOU CAN MISS COMBOS/SKILLS SOMEHOW WITH HER)

#

Just that at least

Yeah, Akekuri is in an interesting position where you have to weigh the opportunity cost over just % increase. And pick what you prefer

#

I pulled zhongli

#

On release

halcyon lark
#

thats says alot..

frozen tide
#

He was so ass

distant python
#

Bro

#

My limited was albedo

frozen tide
#

He got number buffs and a mini rework

halcyon lark
#

was albedo good?

#

LMAO

distant python
#

I also logged on randomly back in xilonen release and got her and nahida

oak vigil
#

albebo 🧔

distant python
#

So the account is no longer bricked

#

Apart from me building diluc

#

So

#

Um

frozen tide
#

Albedo was weird

distant python
#

I have bad habits of building bad greatsword standard redheads

frozen tide
#

He had like a gimmick

#

Iirc

#

That made his dmg actually pretty good?

distant python
frozen tide
#

But was a weird unit overall

daring dove
distant python
#

Albedo ult was the most mid thing in existence

daring dove
#

Not that it matters all my operators outside of 8 are level 1.

distant python
#

Mid game on a character that built defense

peak void
#

no pog gilb? ChenCry

frozen tide
#

Wasn't there a way to buff albedo ult

#

With structures or smth

distant python
#

Geo traveller things I guess

#

Idk

#

My main team was Barbara and diona

#

With Diluc and fish

#

Like

#

1.0 gaming

frozen tide
#

Diluc power creep is so insane to me

#

When i accidentally pulled diluc

distant python
#

He is shit

frozen tide
#

I fucking screamed

#

Back in 1.0

He was the dps back then

I quit after i pulled ganyu

#

I was doing daily farming for her

#

And got a moment of like

distant python
#

I quit during inazuma after pulling yoimiya

frozen tide
#

Wtf am i doing

peak void
#

not combat

distant python
#

I had the fastest yoimiya in the west

frozen tide
#

I just log in do domains see what i got and log off

daring dove
#

Ganyu was actually some of the most fun gameplay in Genshin honestly.

Cause I quit the game

#

Has anyone made a chart for optimal dijiang setup without accounting 80/90

peak void
#

some PIPES kept me up

#

yk me when i have an idea

frozen tide
#

Piping at night instead of sleeping

#

Crazy work

daring dove
peak void
#

mmmm i love pipe

frozen tide
distant python
#

No

#

Level 40 usually

#

Lvl 80/90 would be the same at lvl 40

#

Just with higher values

#

Cause the ratios would all still be similar

#

The issue is when you have some character at 60/80 and some at 40/60

peak void
distant python
#

Then some operators have T2 on a talent that is better than another's T1 talent

#

But if both talents were T2 then the other operator would be better

#

For instance I don't use alesh in dijang cause i have another more upgraded operator with higher mood regen due to T2 on that talent

frozen tide
#

It should be possible to make an optimizer

#

Where you check boxes for which operators you own at which unlocks

distant python
#

Take the most optimal setup

frozen tide
#

And it auto sorts for you

distant python
#

Then adjust 1 or 2 operators

frozen tide
#

But idk if anyone cares enough

distant python
#

Like it's not that bad

#

To just figure it out manually

#

I got my ardelia to 80/90 today for more clue room buffs

#

And also Estella to 40 for clue room

if i consume link with ember ult do you get the dmg bonus for the entire duration or how does it interact

#

soz laev*

drifting quest
#

Laev ult consumes it. Laev ult does no damage. Link expires

remote elk
#

alright ty!

drifting quest
#

Laev and yvonne ult are 'transformative' ults if you will

#

The cast is a state change

remote elk
#

yeah so just use it after makes sense

drifting quest
#

You can buff her skill

#

But never her ult basics

gritty olive
drifting quest
#

Shouldnt

hollow magnet

are there any cases where you would take skill damage over arts intensity in a piece?

drifting quest
#

what unit
what team
What gear set

manic blade
#

nah my dumb ahh was upping bskill instead of cskill on ake gg

dawn patrol
#

why would you upgrade either

#

just max her ult

manic blade

alr did lol

#

and m3 x4 laev m3 ult/cskill gilb

can waste all their resources

hollow magnet
drifting quest

i mean yeah obviously then

hollow magnet
#

like i feel like you wouldn't really use it for endmin for example (i only phys)

#

so there's really no exceptions at least for our current chars

daring dove
#

How much longer until Umbrial on EU 108_yaehmm

drifting quest
#

other than the crushbot endmin build which isnt used much they dont build much if any AI

daring dove

Oh wait

This is for enemies

Not for ops

drifting quest
#

Just search like

frozen tide
#

I can send

#

The doc is much more thorough and technical than the former edition

outer ermine
#

just search "few errors" PerliWheeze below that msg is where shuo sent it

frozen tide
#

It was probably easier to just look at and understand at a basic level before

sullen depot
#

Should that be pinned?

frozen tide
#

If it's been peer reviewed sounds like a good idea

manic blade
unreal light
frozen tide
#

It only works like that for enemies

#

Enemies doing combustion to your operators

#

And if this was how combustion worked for our operators

#

It would be much much more ass than what it is now even best case scenario

midnight stirrup
#

Idk why u think its bad

frozen tide
#

Discord also has been sending data to basically everyone

#

With their regular schedule "data breach"es

#

And now they gonna implement age verification

unreal light
frozen tide
#

Enemies don't have the same reactions as us

#

Which idk probably makes it easier for them to balance

#

Which sounds cool to me

frail flicker
#

when etching an essence, do the stats on the essence I am sacrificing for the etching matter for success chance? IE will I have a better chance at boosting Suppresion on Jet if I use a gold suppression essence as materials?

frail flicker
#

so I already have the needed essence for Jet for Avy... the rest of the team is Akekuri, Perlica, and Gilberta. who's essence should I go after next?

tall swift
#

but well

drifting quest
#

some support options dont need 3rd line, some want 3/3 still, etc

#

differs per unit

tall swift
#

i would go for gilberta's next, if you get a good purple one you wont need to farm for ake or perli

frail flicker
#

but for which character's weapon do I want to farm for the correnct essnece next... my Avy is the only one who's weapon has an essence infused...

drifting quest
#

what weapons are they holding

sage tartan
#

What are the best alternative weapons for yvonne

drifting quest
#

navigator, wedge

sage tartan
#

Which one of those two is better? Or they're just the same

drifting quest
#

at equal pots wedge is higher

frail flicker
#

Gilberta has Delivery, Perlica has Detonation unit, and Akekuri has thermite cutter... I got lucky when drawing on the Delivery Guaranteed banner lol

sage tartan
#

Ight

drifting quest
#

you can farm all 3 at the same time then

#

somewhat

#

all 3 drop from the same alluvium in the hub
you can somewhat chase 2/3 or 1/3's

rugged vale
#

2/3 and 1/3 useless tho PerliFumo

frail flicker
#

for Gilberta what is most omportant: the Ult gain efficiency or the pursuit?

How much arts sus do arts bursts give again?

iirc

with her combo

tall swift
stone thunder
#

I gotta read about that

tall swift
#

let me check where it shows it in game brb

stone thunder
#

gosh reading, the bane of Indonesians

stone thunder
drifting quest
#

as in arts susceptibility?

#

arts bursts give 0

stone thunder
#

oh

tall swift
#

pretty sure it shows when you click on "arts intensity"

stone thunder
#

but they do give arts damage increase?

tall swift
drifting quest
#

corrosion is a reaction, not an arts burst

#

arts bursts are just damage

stone thunder
tall swift
#

oh wait

stone thunder
#

what

#

what in the arts shenanigans

tall swift
#

hmm

drifting quest
#

an arts burst is when you apply the same infliction ontop of the existing stack

tall swift
#

i think im mixing up terms rn KEKK

stone thunder
#

I thought arts bursts are like, combustion, electrification, etc.

drifting quest
#

an arts reaction is a different infliction

stone thunder
#

Ohhh

#

Okay I gotta get my terms sorted out

drifting quest
#

regarding reactions none give susceptibility

stone thunder
#

Arts inflictions, arts reactions, and arts bursts

#

dies

drifting quest
#

corrosion reduces the enemy resistance
electrification increases arts damage taken

stone thunder
#

thank you

#

where do you read that?

drifting quest
#

you can click on most effects in game to read their tooltip

stone thunder
#

I can't really find it under each of the respective reactions' tutorials

drifting quest
#

or read on an external wiki

stone thunder
#

ooo

#

I assume the game doesn't give the percentages?

#

only the fact that this reaction does that

drifting quest
#

they dont tend to disclose the % but we know them

drifting quest
#

the tables are at the bottom

#

if you dont wish to read

stone thunder
#

Thank youv ery much

#

I will read

#

Holy 9 pages

#

maybe another time

#

So basically this means get as many damage multipliers

#

and don't oversaturate one multiplier(?)

tight haven
#

live arts reaction:

drifting quest
#

thats the general logic for all damage yes

stone thunder
#

🫔 Thank you very much

drifting quest
#

the more multiplicative zones you can access the higher your damage will be

#

ignoring vastly different quantities of buffing

#

e.g. 100% damage% buff is obviously going to be more valuable than like 5% susceptibility

stone thunder
#

I see

#

but 50% damage% buff and 50% susceptibility will be better than 100% on one of them only

#

cause it'll be 225% instead of 200%

#

yes Arknights: Mathfield

yes

Might be to differing degrees however

Might not be

hasty grail
#

I prefer the combo dmg set with one slab for p5, sac's ult damage for combo damage but you do combo twice as much

#

and p5 increases combo multiplier too

frozen tide
#

You can run xira chest xira gloves xira kit and hot work kit(intensity) if you don't need as much ult gain

daring dove
#

Naw but can use it basically every rotation in most teams.

frozen tide
#

Theres other possible sets as well but these are some examples

The constant is some form of 3 piece xiranite and some ult gain pieces

I did the umbral. It was really fun this time but still killed everything before I could get to ult

bulls were funny free sp

drifting quest
#

yeah I am definitely hopeful now compared ot the last one

#

these stages actually felt decently enjoyable to engage with

#

maybe not the 1st one it folded too easily

#

but the 2nd and 3rd

neat snow
#

If the 3rd is good then I think it'll be good going forward

drifting quest
#

it just needs to be a bit harder without losing the engagement

#

and it hits a nice sweet spot

With Gilberta on Xir. gear, Avywenna and Perlica, what set should Antal run?

valid zealot
#

Time do Ember.

frozen tide

Me when devs improve the game instead of releasing perfect

drifting quest
#

you can swap gilb off xir to let antal run it

Mmmmm I feel like this type of question fits here more rather than team-build channel.
Just want to get all your opinions, in terms of comparing to other regular teams, how decent is this completion for Rock Solid on Agony mode?

#

This is technically theorycrafting too, right?

Mmmmh I'll take it, fair enough

drifting quest
#

pretty much any team is clearing it at the ~1min mark

lilac bloom

horrid idea

#

but she can technically proc swordmancer lol

drifting quest
#

swordmancer gilb is a speedrun thing

#

exists

lilac bloom
#

idk i think broken set is gilb's best set if she's not using xiranite

#

but you rly want sig

#

if she doesnt have sig you should still do xiranite i think

That last boss in the new Umbrial is pretty fun.

im hoping we get another support-ish set like xiranite when 1.1 drops

potent hornet
#

3rd boss was kinda fun

#

think i might use that one instead of rhod now

#

to test stuff

oak vigil
#

I wish 3rd boss had actually more hp on his core though

It's like 'oh boss doesn't have stagger now', but then when you get to his core it just goes the same way

#

Or like at first you chip away first layer of core, second loop of boss fight, and then destroy the core at the second time would have worked better

potent hornet
#

i just had to stop getting hit by dumb shit

#

2 LR combos and he was gone

elder skiff
#

elites’ attack patterns are too simple to be put in this so-called ā€˜endgame content’

#

literally just punching bags

potent hornet
#

well dodge trivializes a lot

#

they would have to make some things un-dodge able to force us to care about mechanics

daring dove
#

Well all those extra resources went a long way, not only did I get LR's ult to rank 12, I also got her combo trigger to rank 11. W_HuHyperYAY

Holy that umbral was annoying on mobile

Target lock is so aids on mobile

daring dove
midnight stirrup
#

Nah

#

The enemies werent the issue

#

Its the auto target that was already ass but even more ass on mobile

#

First was just nuke before adds

#

Second was dodge away with them and do ur combo

daring dove
#

It's one thing I can honestly say I have never struggled with on PC.

#

But I hear a lot of complaints about it

midnight stirrup
#

The target is horrible

#

But damn mobile is genuinely hairpulling annoying

#

You cant switch target etc have to retarget

frozen tide
midnight stirrup
#

Idk its manageable on ps5

#

Annoying but u get used to playing with it

frozen tide
#

Yeah idk mobile probs is way worse

#

Its just rly annoying when lock bounces

daring dove
#

So I'mma be 1 crown away from maxing all of the skills I need on LR this patch unless they gave some more away in another event. We're getting one from Yvonne's trial. But I don't think there's a confirm other source rn?

There's a new event on the 24th hopefully that has some.

everyone who isnt me is a whale

Which weapon banner do you all think is higher priority? Definitely doing at least two more on Ardelia's weapon banner for pot 5 Thermite cutter, but I'm not sure if I keep going for more pots on Ardelia's weapon or start chasing pots for LR weapon? Both Ardelia & LR's weapon are P2. 108_yaehmm

Are u trying to be a LR main all of sudden

And Akekuri buff

Why choose. Do all weapons PerliFumo

midnight stirrup
#

I deal the same as someone with p0 khav

#

Ardelia sig p5 better invest

modest thorn

My opinion tho is imma just pull the ā€œlimitedā€ weapons to p5 and along the way just max the permanent ones

The permanent weapons/operators can wait tbh

I lose the 25/75 way too often

Youre not gonna max them by the time you can max them

I might go for P0 Yvonne but that's basically just for ship & outpost management.

how can you even consistently whale for a standard char when there is no 50 50 or pity

very different game

Why is the pity system not the same

Why do we not have tower defense

og arknights is an entirely different genre and design/balance/marketing/financial philosophy

that's the gacha system not the game systems?

Tower defense šŸ”„

The game systems arent the same either bro

its not productive to compare the games at all

they are ran differently despite being under the same parent company

# neat snow I did the standard banner selector also lol

Yeah, to be honest, standard banner is likely one of the best places to whale at the beginning of the game if you want long term power. Because as soon as you get all them standard nerds P5. You get a lot more 6* weapon selectors. But it's literally just a whale strat. 091_Run

p4/p5

If I p9 LR I'll have to do something bad

modest thorn
drifting quest
#

$16 and I have everything I want

potent hornet
#

i could see being in a similar situation if i decided to drop more on the game

#

pretty happy with what i have now tho

#

if i get lucky on the yvonne banner with the free pulls i will drop an attempt on laev weapon again

daring dove
potent hornet
#

try to get p1

daring dove
#

I just wanted a really strong team right away.

#

An went a little overboard

potent hornet
#

when i realized how close i was after dumping the free stuff into the weapon banner and basic pulls on LR i decided to push it with some dollars

#

i was only trying to spend like 100 but gambling took hold and got another 70ish out of me

daring dove
#

I mean I'm at the point now where I'm focusing on building a second team where I have literally no idea when that second team will be useful if ever.

potent hornet
#

my second will be laev, just got my gilberta to 80 so she can wear gear

oak vigil
#

Tbh I’ll probably buy a monthly thing and maybe 1 pack when I’ll get extra money from my pay so I won’t spend my savings, since I do enjoy this game

potent hornet
#

got p5 wolf leveled with a perf essence

#

that needs etching

#

gilbertas essence is close to being done

#

laev and weapon are 80

#

but they have like zero skills lol

drifting quest
#

maybe not a second team directly

#

but a wider roster

potent hornet
#

we should be getting something on the 24th

#

another trim medal

daring dove
#

Something similar to the camera event?

potent hornet
#

does that not mean build puzzles?

#

or like an actual puzzle

neat snow
#

I had the option to make a second team or max my ship operators.. I chose to max the ship operators PerliFumo

daring dove
neat snow
#

All

daring dove
#

Because if you're just maxing everyone I don't think it'll matter to you at all.

frozen tide
#

every operator eveyr p5?

#

what about weaps

neat snow
#

Undecided on weapons

#

I only have laevs team weapons maxed

#

And a few random

daring dove
#

When you're maxing every single character your resources should be pretty much unlimited going into the 4th or 5th month of the game I reckon.

neat snow
#

Yeah that's what I'm finding. It's just I got 'unlucky' and took gilb to p4 during Laev banner so I didn't get tons of stuff for her banner

daring dove
#

You'll have everyone built at that point minus limited crowns.

potent hornet
#

i figured laev was still pretty good at p0/p0

#

and could do the aoe stuff i might not be able to do with LR

neat snow
#

I'm sure she is. But she's truly crazy at p5 p5

potent hornet
#

thats what i have LR for

#

i like her pacing

#

and big number boom feel good

neat snow
#

Yeah I kind of want to play LR team for my second

daring dove
#

The others have some serious gaps.

neat snow
#

The only things not maxed on my Laev team is Ardelia potentials and the masteries for useless skills, I m3 the useful ones

#

All weapons essence and everything is maxed

dapper mason
tall swift
daring dove
tall swift
#

it is expensive however

potent hornet
#

i'm trying to decide if i just want to dump adelia into my laev/wolf/gilb team or use akekuri

drifting quest
#

wulf potentials? build?

potent hornet
#

p5

#

with obj

#

p2

drifting quest
#

if its full essence/artificing to the right breakpoint then you can go with either, but the ake rotation is naturally easier

#

if you dont have the 200+ ult gain req on wulf then you have to go ake

potent hornet
#

hes good

drifting quest
#

thats still a bit short

#

i think its like 213

potent hornet
#

its not artificed or etched yet

pure spoke

232, even

i just need to dump some essences into

Hi! I have a very small question, wich is the best team comp for Yvonne?

drifting quest
#

best?
gilberta xaihi alesh

#

right now at least

undone phoenix
#

quick question regarding last rite's weapon

when it says (for every skill) what does it mean exactly

native aurora
drifting quest
#

last rite is not good for yvonne

#

bad even

native aurora
#

ooo

drifting quest
#

but its a very popular guide recommendation by people who dont know better

#

so you have probably seen it suggested a lot

#

its okay for like overworld i guess

#

but for recrisis, trims especially, and umbral monument its not good

native aurora
#

Why is not good? Is for the rotation time? or both are fighting for the cryo charges?

frozen tide
#

Two carry dps just isn't ideal in general and yes both fight over cryo

#

They have anti synergy

native aurora
#

Like last rite and alesh?

frozen tide
#

Yvonne cs needs solidification

drifting quest
#

so you end up running last rite as a pure infliction bot which giga ruins her personal damage and makes her worse than just having a buffer most of the time
even for providing inflictions hers are slower to stack than other units
the argument is her sp refund but due to the way sp refunded works it causes massive misalignment of ultimate generation and doesnt end up making the rotation faster or cheaper than normal

and after all of that if you already have last rite you have a better team by building last rite hypercarry than yvonne hypercarry because last rite is just a better unit

native aurora
