They call that game balance, it's intended 094_derpfei

#

@outer ermine Do you find LR always clears faster than Yvonne btw if you aren't doing precast nonsense.

#

I'm still not sure who I should priority getting P5 weapon on first.

#

That said I'm still in two minds if just to pull Tangtang out of Cryo teams at this point an try build her with Rossi or other upcoming characters.

outer ermine
#

depends really, but we usually just play around stage/boss mechanics
rhod wait for 200sp b4 engaging
dorito has lots of delays so isnt an issue
marble .
ruan takes a long ass time so doesnt matter
b&a 3 stack
rock multiple hitbox so ez 4 stack

#

yvonne is easier tho

smoky quarry
#

heck, i forgot there's limit to comps

outer ermine
#

1.1m holy

#

and on a really fuckin good run

#

pls be below 16.4 ICANT i havent been checking the times on these runs cuz didnt wanna lose my edge

smoky quarry
#

26th march I'll cap both on xiranite and cuprium components, so I'll have to stop producing them. I wanted to keep it running till 31, but forgot that depot limit exists

#

And I'm too lazy to transfer ts

outer ermine
#

omg it didnt oneshot

smoky quarry
#

that's like enough to fully artifice 20 pieces of gear

#

or 5 sets

#

and same amount for cuprium

outer ermine
#

16.733 cs hit, 16.833 kill PerliWaaaaa

#

how tf did i 16.3

tight haven
#

what assumptions are you making here

#

if youre assuming optimal conditions then this is true but its important to note that optimal conditions arent what every player has access to

smoky quarry
#

that's not assumption. that's statement

tight haven
#

no i mean, what rotational/investment assumptions

tight haven
#

oh youre using that doc

chilly bolt
#

well this is the assumption

gritty olive
#

sorry guys ive been inactive here

tight haven
#

its still important to note the assumptions you make because saying one thing is STRICTLY better than the other makes it sound like its a necessary improvement akin to LR's sig

smoky quarry
#

It kinda is. GM is better on every metric, even P5 RA barely outclasses it

tight haven
#

glorious doesnt provide a truly meaningful increase over sundering to the point of touting it as something you ought to go for if you already have sundering p5

#

just important to note

drifting quest
#

P5 RA can range from a significant upgrade to marginally ahead to marginally behind to a significant downgrade

#

assumptions matter

tight haven
#

yeah people say "its better/worse" too much then people actually use rascent without playing properly into it and get surprised when it isnt actually much better than sundering

#

you should tell people how youre using things not just that you ought to use things

daring dove
#

GM is going to perform better for the vast majority of players, rapid may win specifically for those who have mastered the rotations & are going for stagger 1 shot kills.

#

That's my general takeway.

smoky quarry
#

it's not like you can viberot on physical team

drifting quest
#

speedrunning wise rascent is the only one that isnt conditional stacking

#

so its a significantly better option for those where chen doesnt get to stack

distant python
#

Too much minmaximg

#

I just use boxcutter

smoky quarry
#

4/3/4 on Pogr/Lifeng/Chen/Endmin is standard

#

Do you guys also hold the finished FS using dashes?

distant python
#

Oh also I use ember soo all timelines on the sheet are immediately scuffed because I don't have 3 vulnerable stacks from lifeng ult

dreamy cave
#

does tangtang have a problem with ult recharge? like using her on umbral, or long fights that has phases (tria)

#

if not, should i just swap the armor with bone t2?

smoky quarry
distant python

I like ember

gaunt mason
#

but no one ends up looking at it anyway

tight haven
#

yeah thats how it goes

gaunt mason
#

even went through the pain of pasting 12 different crit distributions

#

i think a total of two people have looked at it

distant python
#

You think people read more than 1 sentence

#

Just give me the best thing now

gaunt mason
#

i'd hope so

distant python
#

No nuance

gaunt mason
#

but they take the first weapon comparison they see and run with it forever

chilly bolt
#

that's me

distant python
#

I'm just too lazy and broke to worry about minmaximg that much

gaunt mason
#

smh

distant python
#

If your weapons and masteries aren't maxed is there even a reason to worry about optimal weapon

#

Your build is bricked anyway

fresh trench
#

thats it guys,i will continue again on monday cause im out of things to improve

gaunt mason
#

i just think sundering is really ugly

distant python
#

Fair, I think it's more accurate though

#

Chen would have a silly weapon

gaunt mason
#

it doesn't match her other sword 😔

distant python
tight haven
#

glorious does at least look like her other sword kinda

#

and rascent just looks nice

#

its funny that glorious doesnt seem to look different at max pot though

outer ermine
#

problem is im rolling for crit and complete no slowmo on lr

#

and i dont know why she sometimes comes out slowed and not

#

Lets save ffxiv posts for when the game saves itself from massive decline due to bad team decisions ruining an entire expansion

#

Anyways, how's the community feeling about physical in comparison to other teams since we're about a month in now

#

Performance is one thing but just the complexity/fun factor is what im interested in. Other teams feel bland to me

quaint matrix
#

are they fixing stutters with new driver?

timber harness
#

I mean, theyre so out of touch they dont know how to properly give reward incentives for content.

#

We need to go back to the rng stat gear days. At least that was SOMETHING

fossil pendant
#

tbh

#

if the fights they make maintain this current quality and they don't manage to shove job gameplay even further into the dirt

#

i'm fine just raid logging every week

#

but I play way less than I used to already

#

I used to sit in pf looking for things to do every day, now I need to be convinced to open the game

welcome to a gacha game

smoky quarry
#

Gachas would be so much better if they were designed like grindfest games. Like the ones with actually engaging grinding and variable gameplay

outer ermine
#

16.38ish is fastest theoritical time but the dmg needed gets higher the faster it is since tt has less time to hit

smoky quarry
#

Way better than 15 minutes of playtime daily

bronze plume
#

gacha games would be so much better if they wernt gacha games as well

#

but like

outer ermine
#

ChenCry oh well

bronze plume
#

thats just how they work but people still play and spend tf on them so

smoky quarry
#

and asia is obsessed with them

bronze plume
#

thats kinda

#

a big main point of gachas so

smoky quarry

some games just ought to be ruined by terrible financial strategies

everything second half seems to be absent

since i believe a second half event has no data

wonder why they are doing it like that

and if the main reason is to avoid dataminers

maybe like Perli, Gilb, Arc, Antal or swap Arc out for Ardelia

drifting quest
inland quarry
#

Regardless, do any subdps use bonecrusher armor?

echo cove
#

Tt?

inland quarry
#

They should all use bonecrusher kit over lynx slab due to subdps no?

#

Yes this is for tangtang

echo cove
#

Oh

honest hill
echo cove
#

U mean chest

drifting quest
#

there are 2 BK armours that see use

#

which one do you mean

echo cove
#

I think he meant bonekrusha chest piece

#

Unless am tripping too

drifting quest
#

there are 2 chest pieces

#

that see use

honest hill
#

One is red

inland quarry
#

I'm asking about any

drifting quest
#

Heavy Armor and Heavy Armor T2

inland quarry
#

I want to know if any bonecrusher will be useful on subdps

drifting quest
#

the former is used to maintain 3p bonekrusha with a different slot off piece

honest hill
drifting quest
#

the latter is used in longer rots or for main dps

honest hill
#

It is useful

drifting quest
#

other builds will off piece the chest piece

Chinese gamedev company trying to make normal game (it would have to cost 60 dollars and it can't have microtransactions in it)

honest hill

but that comes down to skill PerliFumo

icy remnant
# bronze plume gacha games would be so much better if they wernt gacha games as well

Better is subjective
If we count Better as in the quantitative number of people that enjoyed it that’s false
A lot less people will even give a chance for premium paid games even if they are cheap
A simple example is Ex Astris, a relatively cheap premium game made by Gryphline that profited a whopping -1.7m despite being “good”

icy remnant
#

Consumers have shown that they actively prefer to spend on gacha games and in game transactions rather than buy games

#

Words matter less than objective financial statements

smoky quarry
#

Mass consumer likes to consume shit

#

preferably in huge masses

#

sad reality

icy remnant
#

We always claim it’s shit and we consume it nonetheless
Speaking with your wallet is how companies find out what works and what doesn’t

#

And normal premium games simply don’t work especially on mobile

honest hill
#

True

#

tho a lot of western games suck

smoky quarry

So much potential wasted in the mud

Asian gaming companies just can't cook for some reason, with sole exceptions like Capcom

honest hill
icy remnant
#

I recommend to try out Slay The Spire 2 although it’s still in early access
But yea in no way games like these are ever worth making as devs over just a simple game with micro transactions

ive always said that i think a lot of gacha games are fun but its a moral imperative to shit on gacha as a medium

You try to create it any other way and you will dig yourself a multi million loss hole in the ground

That were good for me

#

Nobody would shit on gachas if they weren't inherently built to milk money out of people

tight haven
icy remnant
#

Nobody buys premium games

#

People just pirate it or don’t even give them a chance

tight haven
#

is it

#

problematic

#

to call you broke

#

if youre pirating literally every game you play

#

idk i think its funny to take that as a given in the same conversation where freemium live-service games are being held up as the only economical way to make a game in big 26

icy remnant

I talked about it in Reddit and it’s always super divided even if I end up getting support
People genuinely don’t care about stealing fair work until AI steals their art and threatens their livelihood

tight haven

okay well like

icy remnant
#

It’s only when it affects them when they care

tight haven
#

respectfully

#

why would you go to fucking reddit,

icy remnant
#

Meh it’s just a way to gather opinions
Discord is also another social medium

tight haven
#

okay no im being glib but i do think that every gaming sub is just infested with AI shills

#

its self-selecting especially in the capital-AAA games subs

icy remnant
#

It’s just not very possible or financially responsible anymore to create high quality passionate games without adding microtransactions esp on mobile

#

I'm glad that people who could never afford projects of passion now can do it

#

imagine how many good ideas were buried under the rubble

#

And people are so hateful about it, that they go out of their way and witchhunt these creators

#

Their position is baseless. The only thing they're interested in is arguments that support their sick worldview, even if they're fundamentally flawed.

is that the yvonne record without waiting out ult

goddamn that looks so rough

that was like a 16.8?

oh 16.68

outer ermine

yea .683

hit was .666 so it was okay

wheres the yvonne run youre beating

thermite hasnt shown up yet

also wont show up during 1.1

for whatever reason they reran 3 different weapons this patch

rather than any of the 5? 6? that havent yet shown up

#

||Thermite, WNN, Sundered, JET, Wedge, Chiv||

#

all yet to have a weekly rotation, earliest 1.2

#

Oblivion, ||Clannibal and Valiant|| have had or will have a rerun in 1.1

quasi quarry

hope that thing never does rotate in the shop

wispy shuttle

Are these selections related to the weapon selector boxes we got?

what selections

#

if you mean does the weekly rotation relate to them

#

no

wispy shuttle
#

Ok

shut cobalt
#

why is tangtang maindps not included in the pinned guide? it seems like a good team

kindred sorrel
#

Because it’s worse than both LR and Yvonne teams presumably

shut cobalt
#

phys is the same rating as yvonne there so i dont think its much different?

#

is it worth it trying to go for this? (10k arsenal tickets)
pinned guide says its mandatory but maygi's calcs says its 13% difference from the 3rd best so idk who to trust
asked in #help but idk if thats accurate so im asking here instead
one person answered there "hell no" but im asking here since this is technically the number crunching channel but i had a non number question, so idk where to ask

drifting quest
#

maygi calcs are team damage, which is skewed with the introduction of tangtang. Sig is a pretty notable increase but is not required to clear at all. its also ridiculously expensive unless you are a whale

#

but no one can make the choice for you

shut cobalt
#

i thought it was the same with tangtang since he didnt say anything else on the tangtang part, before tangtang he said "don't bother if you don't have sig" and on tangtang nothing

shut cobalt
shut cobalt
drifting quest
#

Again no one can make the choice for oyu

#

its up to you what you are willing to spend or not spend

shut cobalt

#

no one can tell you what is best to do

#

its preference

#

we can give you the numbers you have to make the choice

# drifting quest with a subdps

ahh, got it, and uh one more thing that just came up as i was looking on the pinned guide
is gilberta or perlica last slot better?

drifting quest
#

purely preference

shut cobalt
#

what are the pros of each of them then? gilberta aoe and perlica what idk what perlica does?

summer flicker
drifting quest
#

the one you are more comfortable playing is the one that performs better

shut cobalt
summer flicker
#

perlica has higher dmg but required investing into perlica

#

gilb can judt be a buff bot

drifting quest
#

they have different gearing and rots too

#

for lr and tt

#

there's a discussion to be had about consistency post first burst

#

and full vs 0 energy

#

but i really cba to get into that rn

twilit quail
#

lr tt dispute is minor compared to yvonne tt

#

cause it's mathematically best to just play TT as upsized alesh for yvonne

#

but people dont like the thought of that

#

and have an emotional response

#

so they get angry and argue

#

it's pretty funny really

quasi quarry
#

upsized alesh?

twilit quail
#

3x xiranite

#

application + buff bot

quasi quarry
#

o

twilit quail
#

cause in the stream they used the ult to let yvonne shoot at cced enemy right

#

but then we got our hands on the multipliers on live server

#

and we realised that it was best for dmg to just make her exactly that, upsized alesh

#

that is not even necessarily ebtter than alesh sometimes

quasi quarry
#

I should look more into the cryo teams, they're the least I know about cause I don't have any of the ops PerliFumo

twilit quail
#

people just dont like

#

the thought of desyncing the ult

#

and some will go like

#

"it's a waste of the ult's mechanics to use it this way"

#

which, well, is understandable from a certain perspective right

#

but the unit really is not very compatible with yvonne

lyric latch
#

will you add Tangtang main dps to the sheet @twilit quail ?

twilit quail
#

probably not

#

return on investment is not good

#

without dupes on two of the limiteds in the team

#

it's not unplayable or anything but I dont think it is worth my effort

#

that's all

lyric latch
#

ic

drifting quest
#

wait its mathematically better to not dip into talent 2

#

how

twilit quail
#

do you mean the dmg or what

#

it's not like we dont do the dive

#

when we are using her this way

drifting quest
#

oh

#

the way you worded it implied

#

no dive

twilit quail
#

trying to give tt damage the same buffs as the other dmg dealing unit(yvonne) extends the rotation by an unhealthy amount

#

because of gil presence

#

and so we end up with the current situation

#

it's why Ive just put off

#

making the graphic for yvonne

#

Im genuinely hoping that someone can come up with better gear + rotation

#

that just beats the ass of both sides in that argument

#

and then I can be lazy and not have to do a writeup

quasi quarry
drifting quest
#

i can give it a look

twilit quail
#

like I said, right

drifting quest
#

maybe

twilit quail
#

mostly emotional reaction from people

drifting quest
#

like if you just drop her entirely it smooths alignment and you dont even really lose much stack wise, buff losses hurt but they arent make or break and should be made up for by buff uptime

twilit quail
#

of course it matters what

#

ok so

#

it's immensely difficult to get TT damage into gil buffs because of nature stack

#

and your only sources of ice application

#

are tangtang and xai cs

#

even with p1 cd reduction and m3 on tt cs

#

there is basically no equilibrium that is possible to hit

#

that balances timeline length

#

number of stacks applied

#

SP use, ult gain, and buff coverage

#

gil sig can almost save it but not quite

drifting quest
#

arent the perlica rots similar length

#

1 + 4 stack

#

and then you can put tangtang skills during the electrification and its easier to align buffs due to stanza and electrification lasting longer

#

like yeah its less burst window damage than gilb

twilit quail
#

yvonne dropping gil

drifting quest
#

but in theory it should be somewhat made up for

#

i mean what is gilb offering that you cannot compensate for

#

inf stack is covered by tt now

#

buffing is less but easier to work with

#

unless im missing something blatant here

Im focusing on artificing the ult damage kits first

And maybe try getting redeemer later on

But yeah still need to full artifice the kits

not p0, p4 (but p3-tier damage since that 10sp from p4 wasnt used for anything)
i went foodless tho. yvonne p0 ginseng > yvonne p3 foodless

btw- if i had p1 tangtang i could probably fit another tt bs at :22. but rn if i did that i wouldn't have sp for yvonne's last battleskill

Nothing wrong with a bit of theory crafting so people can prepare characters for the team they want to play if needed. Yes we dont know exact number for her SKill Modifier but we know basicly most of her mechanics. SO if you know the game you sitll can choose which Operator will work best with her kit and who will not.

#

and why would you not use MI set on ROssie when her weapon passive, her talents her ult all benefit from it?

Probably

Either mi security or yinglung

I'm looking at the LR+TT rotation that iana added and the recommended UGE for TT is 45.6%. However if I run the math on that (3c6s, 120sp refund -> 30 + 4.8*6.5 = 61.2 energy -> 90/61.2 = 1.471) i get to 47.1%. Where does the 1.5% difference come from?

#

I plugged in the wrong number lol

45.6% is for different comp's specific dupe situation and I got them mixed

Li Zhiyang is either cryo or electro looking at her color palette. Can't be main dps, since she doesn't looks important enough. Can't be cryo cause we had tt already

By my sheer speculation and past observations I can say that she doesn't looks like gun or arts user (polearm and gs out of the picture), must be a sword

a lot changed from pre tc to live but teams ended up somewhat as expected

any number of her like 5-10 teams could work / be good / etc

it depend on what you looking for

so ardelia artificing is huge cause she scale like this
her dolly rush increase 28%,corrosion 12%?,weapon buff 12% or 24% when ult,her hotset 50% so only like one or two more artificing is a huge improvement on her

90% team performance in idealised conditions*

not especially but requires ardelia

icy remnant

Well I'm using Ardelia

drifting quest

and then needs to be compared against ardelia comp for sig

#

whereas there are better teams without ardelia

#

there was a lot of

On?

drifting quest

but also 90% gap is omitting relevant information

icy remnant

Right

doomposting about the drop from sig to torch

icy remnant

How much better is the non Ardelia comp

smoky quarry
drifting quest
#

'all she does is these useful things'

icy remnant
#

She's a 4 star, all that alone is kinda cracked

smoky quarry
#

and I'd say it's mildly good, just enough to not swap her out for arclight

icy remnant
#

Doesn't it say alot if it's more useful than 90% of the cast

drifting quest
#

define 1/3 of her kit

smoky quarry
icy remnant
#

Anyways how much better is non Ardelia comps for Laev

drifting quest
#

yes but im curious if you are genuinely suggesting a unit is only good if their skill, combo and ult are all good

cobalt basin
smoky quarry
icy remnant
#

I use Antal together with Ardelia

#

Why is it either or

smoky quarry
icy remnant
#

Lol

drifting quest
#

so you are in fact genuinely suggesting a unit needs skill combo and ult to all be good individually

#

so like 90% of the roster is bad

#

got it

smoky quarry
cobalt basin
icy remnant
#

It's hard to win an argument against a genius but it's impossible to win an argument against an idiot

drifting quest

smoky quarry
icy remnant
drifting quest

depends on rot, enemy fought, skill level of the player

#

no strict numbers

cobalt basin
smoky quarry
#

not a ragebait at all

icy remnant
#

Then it just sounds to me that it's just the Ardelia comp

#

I know the wulfgard antal Akekuri comp exists but

smoky quarry
icy remnant
#

Its really hard to see it coming ahead

drifting quest
#

you're welcome to your own opinions on the topic and some people may start arguments on it

#

i dont personally see any merit in trying to convince you otherwise when you seem convinced

icy remnant
#

I hope MiFu is a way better heat applicator than wulfgard

#

Maybe apply combustion

smoky quarry
drifting quest
#

As I said

icy remnant
#

Still holding on the copium that the Str arts intensity hotwork set is for her

drifting quest
#

No merit

smoky quarry
#

be real about that

drifting quest
#

Did I not say that

#

These things are never productive

#

People will not change their minds

smoky quarry
icy remnant
#

I don't know what the lore ban tag is but I can see why you got it

cobalt basin
# smoky quarry I wasn't really talking about perlica on lava team though?

I assumed you meant this and by mentioning Perlica, I'm saying there's units that are good with just 1-2 useful kit, e.g. Perlica on cryo, or Gilberta being a literal ult bot and most teams doesn't even use her BS for corrossion nodd if that's not what you meant then I misread it somewhere and that'd be my bad

smoky quarry
#

she still does decent damage with her ult, but I'd just get antal for electroheat-support

cobalt basin
smoky quarry
#

As for general picks, I prefer antal in lava team, cause he is more useful in overworld for me. Team buffs are more stable and have better downtime than enemy debuffs usually

#

and his debuff + amp usually yields more than ardelia for solo-target, on top of having better sp economy

#

Granted, I don't know about p5p5 ardelia

smoky quarry
#

I don't strictly hate her, she still has more value than arclight PerliWheeze

#

but I want something better

drifting quest
#

Akekuri skill is used in Laev rotations

fierce nest
#

do u guys have theorycrafted the most probable rossi team

drifting quest
fierce nest
#

yeah but im just asking for a team. not the best but a team that just works.

potent hornet
#

rossi, tangtang, LR, Xaihi

#

that will work

fierce nest
#

how does it work tho

potent hornet
#

TangTang, LR, Xaihi carry and Rossi has fun doing whatever

fierce nest
#

i think i worded it bad.

smoky quarry
fierce nest
drifting quest
potent hornet
#

and someone said

smoky quarry
potent hornet
#

we don't know because we don't have numbers

#

but that wasn't good enough

#

theoretically you can slap her anywere right now and she will do fine

#

A: the game isn't hard

#

B: we don't have numbers so its all imagination atm

fierce nest
#

yea thats fine to me

potent hornet
#

so my team of rossi, tangtang, LR, and Xaihi works because even without rossi numbers the team will do fine with the 3 we do know of

lyric latch
# fierce nest which team is the best fit for rossi

impossible to know what will be Rossi's best team but if you want any usable team just look at the ones they showed in the Dev_Log. they are probably not going to be the best but they will give you an ideia.

fierce nest
#

oh, i forgot about the dev log

#

lmao

#

yeah

potent hornet
#

hell even with the numbers right before patch went live people were dooming TangTang

drifting quest
potent hornet
#

it took actually playing her to realize that she was crazy

smoky quarry
#

with her signature

#

there's 30% team dps increase for LR team that is theoretically possible with perfect rotation

fierce nest
smoky quarry
potent hornet
#

she won't slot perfectly into any of the existing teams without needing to replace something else since she requires inflictions and vuln

fierce nest
smoky quarry
#

I think her actual team will look like:

Endmin/Panda - Rossi - Heat applicator - Flex support

drifting quest
#

The issue with rossi is
if you make her team a crush team you lose the benefit of pog and lifeng buffs which guts the damage considerably, while also stacking slower over time than mono phys does and also losing chen dps

rossi has split damage types so she benefits less from mono phys buffs so her dps will be lower than aforementioned chen

if you try retain lifeng pog crusher she stacks miserably

#

if you want to try make her an arts burst dps you are gated based on her ult cost, combo cd, proccing combo consistently, etc

#

any hybrid teams just perform worse than going full on either direction

fierce nest
#

yeah, i can see why people need numbers since shes hybrid

drifting quest
#

theoretically, of course

#

her numbers could massively change things but we do not know what they are

summer flicker
#

could be the best dps till now with ultra number

drifting quest
#

3k multiplier ult

#

90 cost

smoky quarry
#

it's speculated that yinglung ult damage gear is actually made for her

smoky quarry

Antal the Dimlight

icy remnant
#

I mean Xaihis conditional is a real thing
Antal is so easy to use

#

And the amount of stacks he can apply is absurd

#

For heat infliction

smoky quarry
#

he can add 2 stacks for 1 sp

icy remnant
#

Ye

#

Along with all his support

#

He’s pretty much Laevs best partner is we only care about ST

#

Antal is stacks+ buff for 1 SP every 60s

icy remnant
#

Hm I didn’t realise his cooldown was that high it didn’t feel that high when I played

smoky quarry
#

even with frontier it's only 20.4

#

not even talking about the fact that you can't trigger it in perfect timing

icy remnant
#

In theory you should just reapply his amp before it ends

#

It’s not really just a 2 stack and that’s it situation

#

It’s more like 2.5 or so

smoky quarry
#

Actually I'm thinking why people slot ardelia for laeva

icy remnant
#

Easy combo skill

#

Free stacks

smoky quarry
#

Wulf ult

icy remnant
#

Buff w hotworks

icy remnant
glass birch
smoky quarry
glass birch
#

Since lae clears the heat infliction

icy remnant
#

Yes

smoky quarry
icy remnant
#

But anyways Ardelia genuinely gives Laev a free heat stack every 15s

smoky quarry
#

so does antal, just on 25s

icy remnant
#

Every rotation you mean every 2 skills

#

Of Laev

smoky quarry
#

ardelia has an issue of combo trigger

icy remnant
#

???

#

You basic attack w Laev and u take away all the heat stacks

#

What are you talking about

#

It triggers legit non stop

glass birch
#

Ardelia's combo trigger is just final strike against a tsrget with no vuln or inflictions

smoky quarry
drifting quest
#

laev will eat the stacks first

#

and proc ard combo

smoky quarry
#

makes sense

icy remnant
#

Can you actually just try the units

smoky quarry
#

though it won't work if enemy has combustion

icy remnant
#

Ardelia slander without trying her

drifting quest
#

combustion is a reaction not an infliction

icy remnant
#

If you tested her once in Umbral you’d know this

drifting quest
#

ardelia checks for no vuln or infliction

icy remnant
#

But yea Ardelia combo procs legit every 15s

#

Non stop

smoky quarry
#

I didn't paid a lot of attention to the mechanism, that's true

icy remnant
#

Aight

#

But yea I don’t think I’ll remove her from my Laev team cus of how comfy she makes it

#

If I were to remove a unit in the future I hope it’s Wulfgard

#

A better heat applicator that actually does something

#

Hope it’s Mifu

smoky quarry
#

does something

3 heat inflictions for 1 SP every rotation and free combustion for combo
???

#

he has the most impact on the team, if anything

icy remnant
#

Sure but I hope we get a heat applicator that does something else other than exist for stacks

#

Some buff

smoky quarry
#

so you want a caster, that's almost free and also does crazy sub-dps damage

smoky quarry
#

you're asking for too much PerliWheeze

icy remnant
#

Make the supreme chief wear red

#

But yea they can very easily afford the power budget just looking at TangTang

#

Being a caster is not that big of a deal there are units like that

#

It would be judged based on what else they bring

#

Like susceptibility

dawn shard
#

id say akekuri is the most likely to get replaced for lae first

smoky quarry
#

and for electro team

icy remnant
#

My team assumption doesn’t use Ake

#

Laev Wulfgard Antal Ardelia

#

Looking to replace Wulf

#

Gimme fire Tang

dawn shard
#

oh for that id also assume antal is the first to be replaced

icy remnant
smoky quarry
#

maybe in 1.5-1.8

#

and that's like 6 months from where we currently are

#

so not happening soon

icy remnant
#

Antals kit is so much better than Wulf
Literally any fire caster should replace Wulf
But yea they’d need to want to release a fire caster

smoky quarry
#

SO MANY LETTERS

#

Not reading all'at. How much tangtang stacks for 1 rotation and how much it costs?

icy remnant
#

12s cooldown combo

#

Apply stack

#

Use the whirlpool from combo to apply susceptibility on skill

#

And refund SP

smoky quarry
#

just answer the question, please

icy remnant
#

It depends on the rotation but it’s dirt cheap, I don’t know the concrete numbers PerliStare
Can go look at the excel sheet

#

I don’t have her

smoky quarry
#

for 2 whirlpulls you get 2 inflictions

#

that's 22 seconds worth of cd

#

1 sp for 2 stacks

potent hornet
#

you need two combo skills from tang tang to reach max stacks when you use the battle skill

smoky quarry
#

11s cooldown

#

if we measure only stack application, wulf is stronger

#

that's why I am saying, you ain't getting someone better for stacks

smoky quarry
icy remnant
#

You realise she refunds SP right it’s not 1 SP

drifting quest
#

wulf stacks way better than tangtang, he just only stacks and does nothing else

#

tangtang has personal damage and 2 accessible buff brackets

smoky quarry
icy remnant
#

It’s not fake sp if u don’t need the ult

summer flicker
#

it make rotation smoother

icy remnant
#

W Ardelia skill it’s as good as normal SP in every sense

#

Unless ur using Stanza

#

And even then she probably has enough Ult regen anyways cus we stack her gear to Narnia

#

And combo skills every 15s

smoky quarry
drifting quest
#

you would be right if that is what you said

icy remnant
#

I don’t see how Wulf stacks better

smoky quarry
icy remnant
#

In a 1:1 scenario if we make TangTang fire

#

Tang applies more stacks for cheaper than Wulf PerliStare
