welcome to the bottom of the barrel
ironically it was a redeemer chest for me too
the game was rigged from the start
40 successful attempts at raising Artificing progress congrats 
Physparty is so fucked on this umbral
its workable
you can stagger the 3rd fight a lot more often
which compensates a lot for the dr
in a few days you can also slap rossi on the team
and actually have it work
yeah this felt like it was handmade for rossi
even for laevatain it's a little funky because you can't absorb stacks with 4mf and the paused sp regen can prevent you from spending any
Third stage is free for laevatein
wouldnt call it free
heat infliction appears out of nowhere (and apparently this triggers wulf combo, lol)
easier than other teams for sure
but not free
no natural sp regen is pretty rough for laev for one
I didn't even use wulfgard's bs lol
and the boss can anim cancel laev too
just wait for each enrage cycle to eat all the natural stacks the boss generates
yeah, the bs cancel is annoying
I wonder why it's even there
I would say it's there to punish you for playing like a monkey but the character is kind of designed for you to play like a monkey otherwise so idk lol
is Lifeng P1 considered good because it has substantial change to rotation or because of the increase in Physical Susceptibillity, if it's the first can you give any examples
idk about substantial but it does let you extend the effective duration of your susc because you don't have to open each subcycle with it
"Can you stand in one place for like, a second, please"
putting you closer to p2 and p3 is relevant too
how does it change his rotation though?
fun though
punishes you far less for fucking up and improves team recovery
not applying susc = not accessing cskill on lifeng = less lifeng ults (slower cycles), less links
so this is a QoL thing and not an optimisation thing?
well if there's breach on the team you still get it but
Its both
it is practically an optimization thing
no enemy is going to stand still and let you play your rotation out
It lets you save combos between crush/breaches
I.e. if you chen skill for the 4th vuln
You can crush/breach then pop the combo
Without 'wasting' it
Sometimes you would let it expire anyway but its a bunch of things like that
Which lifeng p1 lets you now do
it feels much more relevant in UM
because sometimes shit just happens
as opposed to more or less being able to just striking dummy all the bosses in the game rn
yeah recrisis is fake ass content atp
except ruan yi to an extent
which kind of makes sense its supposed to be a farming stage
Im so hyped for future umbral now
Yeah they cooked
you mean saving his combo for later for the attack you want to buff?
laev is unfortunately just the fucking best to ever do it
Chen combo
god-fucking-damn that survivability passive is nuts
yeah she probably should be able to anyway
i mean cant you wait for lifeng skill first and then use the chen combo
her dr+heal passive is just so good
all this UM made me do is want more parry operators lol
Yes but timing is tight and not always possible
If we get more umbral like this then
Defenders upscale
and we're back to full 200%
i appreciate that they made trust so much easier to accumulate in endfield
as opposed to "leave your op in a cold room for 5 weeks"
what do you even get at 200
I don't think I've bothered going past 100 yet besides the control room ops that get it naturally
honestly I still can't see how this is that much of a game changer if I could see how it plays out ingame maybe I'd understand it better
past 100% is just "if you like them"
but like its so piss easy to get 200% so why not
you can still do this
which is also nice
the susc is the universal gain, the more lenient conditional is just helping it to feel better in realistic gameplay that you cannot predict
what game does this 
og ak
Finally said goodbye to my last rite team, umbral agony was unclearable
its that bad?
still is imo
Everything is easy until third agony, it's near unbeatable yea
enemy erases cryo stacks every 5 seconds or so
why? whats the mech
I can't imagine it's fun on third stage yah
oh
lol
just cryo?
it generates heat stacks on itself over time
isnt it just "use tt bskill whenever stacks are high"
I switched to yvonne team and it became way easier, free solid
for lr teams
that's assuming you have tangtang on the last rite team

the activity room addition fixed like nothing
yeah cryo is pretty rough for the 3rd stage but not unplayable
yeah it did literally nothing lol
so i shouldnt worry?
funny af
i sleep now nini everyone
just dont treat it like typical lr content where you have to burst asap
and you're fine
I was so excited when I saw it cause I had completely forgotten its addition in cn and I tried it in real time, but it's ridiculously slow
slow rots, sure 
ive had the same ops in them for, no joke, over a month
and theyre still not 200%
theyre absolutely useless
UM is just asking you to break the mindset of every other gacha game time trial
its not a dps check so who cares if you play slow, just interact with the mechanic
which is nice
mind you those ops were like 50-100%
its so good
genuinely cannot hype this umbral up enough
best endgame in the genre, imo
im not sure how it actually works but it seems to stagnate after some point?? or maybe I was using those ops in stages and that's why their trust moved ever so slightly
regardless it's crap
actually I forgot the standard banner has a selector reward too, but i feel that's gonna take veeery long
yea we got how many standard ticket this patch
like 10 lmao
I'm still 178 away from standard selector
I'm not very far from it personally
ult > cskill > bskill > na
(Spent 160 pulls on it)
id expect it'll be a slow improvement to standard pull income
its 19 at lv9
but 10/patch isnt too unreasonable
I'll think of it, thanks anyway
I'm at 180 away, although I have some pulls I haven't used still because I'm waiting to get a 10 pull total
maygi apparently has batk calced way higher
almost as high prio as ult
what the fu
idk why i say apparently
14
fvck
we get 6 per bp, it's kinda pitiful if the rest of those ten are from content
I hope we get more standard pulls from content for bigger patches
batk from ult is scaled from ult though?
not too different from other gacha in the genre
there is no point to m3 batk, cause lava can't even use finisher half of the time
okay lemme watch her vid on it
that sounds pretty fucking funny if it actually does constitute that high of a ratio of her damage
This is filler patch, next one will be better 
1.1 isn't doing any good reputation for endfield though
holy shit dude
yeah im almost done with the bp
miraculously mid
i actually dgaf abt any updates until we get proper repeatable endgame a la cc/is
I just wish there were more reasons to interact with factory beyond setting it up once per patch
endfield is fun and any more of it i will welcome
I genuinely enjoy it more than the combat lol
same
god, please no
Do you think it's optimal to play Yvonne over Tangtang outside her burst window though. I wonder who does more to control when not ulting Yvonne ultly.
should still be better yes
thanks to yvonne talent
id be shocked if it wasnt the case
I maybe need to try it more on boss fights. I'm too used to using Tangtang all the time as she's way better for general content.
But in a boss fight Yvonne likely is the way then.
How do I get solidifed 10 times?
Make a team with 1 operator, hang around the water enemies in wuling and intentionally get hit. Easiest is the big dudes at the end of the wuling city essence fight.
easy way to do it is just bring any cryo unit to umbral 3
and proc it a ton
solidified on self for the achievement I think
which yeah just get hit by the big blob enemies
oh
assumed they meant the bp mission
you can do it on the wuling city
essence farm
when there's the 2 of them at the end of it
I'm upto 1.8m Tcreds now, maybe I went a little overboard prefarming for Rossi.
does he know?
man I dont mind the first umbral stage but it really emphasises how dogshit the game's lock on system is
I use every it once in a while to remind myself how crap it is
On PC it really doesn't bother me at all as I simply don't use it period.
Maybe on mobile it's more required.
It can be handy at times. My Yvonne CS keep prioritizing frozen enemies instead of what I'm facing in front
Starting to approach 6500 ATK on Tangtang without slab. Still a bit more artificing to do as well. 
Wonder if having an extra 700 ATK is worth the 60 BS damage bonus.
for who do I make gears first? LR? and what gears they use
Last Rite & Tangtang are top priority, then Xaihi & Gilberta are pretty much optional outside of required Ult gain for your rotation.
great, what gears lr use ?
Unsure on last Rite her optiomal setup changed recently. @drifting quest may know on that one for Tangtang it's this.
there's 2 ways to build lr
i dont care for lr so i dont know a ton
but its uge vs no uge
basically
i fuckin hate this mino
its a moveset grind
which is better depends on the 4th slot of the team, but both builds work anyway
ah nvm
you can give iana's doc a read through
This was her old best setup which I'm still using. However if not P4 I think you need ult gain on chest.
it alone would give more info than I know
yep, its 1.0 tho
it should be 1.1 updated
in pins here i found 1.0 version
links to the right version to me
did you change page to the last rite one
or just view the home page
let me check on pc
why do the arsonists on the second stage take so long to stagger
my pog's breach runs out before I can get it
ok im gonna use smth else phys is ass for this
thinking about picking up khrav and building ice bc I'm bored
how much of tangtang's improvement to the team is literally just because she does tangible personal damage
Like all of it 
its a combination of personal damage, buff and qol
fast stack access, for example
True. Cryo affliction on cast is nice for LR who used to need to do a full BA chain to get 1-2
If you have sig her buff capabilities are pretty solid as well. Especially when you consider how easily she applies damage buff / debuff.
Also Tangtang's "tangible personal damage" kinda undersells it a little considering she's argubly the best DPS in the game rn & she's supposed to be a support. 
I mean yes but that is specifically something I don't care about
nothing in the game wants damage, I just want to not get cancer playing a character
its ight. But nothing to really write home to. Its 5-10/10-15% susceptibility and 16.8% damage taken (at p5 weapon)
I may pick her up without the sig, maybe
used electric it was way easier to keep my resources till I can burst them down
Yeah, but it's instantly applied pretty much with perma uptime. Most support buffs aren't nearly as easy to apply or as quickly or have as solid uptime.
For a buff prospective it's ok, from an uptime prospective it's top tier.
Gilberta for example gives a much bigger buff, but it's uptime leaves a lot to be desired. Although in nuke rotations it's still pretty serviceable.
are you actually meant to use tangtang's bs to apply cryo beyond the stack you get for pulling in her whirlpools normally or is it just a you have the option to do this instead of waiting for another FS proc for rite's bs 
Won't do anything outside of a boss fight though where you're setting it up.
Tangtang's applies immedately in pretty much all content.
That's why I think it's one of the better buffs in the game rn.
Why we talking about LR in mobbing content though? 
Lr's pretty ass in mobbing content regardless. If you're comparing TT to ardelia for mobbing TT just takes care of mobbing anyways because of her sheer amount of aoe dmg
I'm not simply point out that a buff that applies for literally everything & has borderline no trigger conditions is a lot better than a buff that has a laundry list of them. So yeah the values maybe lower but the amount of time you make use of it is 20x higher. 
Hence why she's one of the better buffers rn.

I dont think any buff/debuff atm has a laundry list to procc. Outside maybe Rossi's CS buff since she needs both vuln and affliction to get it. Outside that everyone else's buffs/debuffs have just a single requirement
But yeah
Up-time wise it's solid since its 100 SP to consume whirlpools; requires 200 SP to set it up though (baseline not accounting return), its decent imo
I mean coming from Genshin where tapping E is all I needed to trigger a characters full buffing capabilities. For me most of the characters in the game rn have pretty horrible buffing requirements. But I kind of accepted that as a reality for early character value. I think as the game progresses things will get easier to trigger & buff value increases.
I think the nature of how buffs work in the game right now makes it a lot more interesting to play ngl
like carrying endmin's crystal atk% increase into the next combo window
I suppose so, I just put a lot of value in QoL so the less hoops I have to jump through to trigger characters buffing conditions the better for me.
All good, I think it's a bit ott personally but I don't make the rules.
how much charge rate does xaihi and tangtang need?
depends on team and rot
this
The purpose of this video is to showcase each support option with Tangtang & Last Rite, and to show how they can be played without cheesing SP regen by pre-casting Xaihi/LR Battle Skills.
Note that these may not be the optimal rotations. The video is just a rough showcase of how each team performs and how they can be played
Music Used: 【FLuoR...
and im using this one as the rot since the pinned guide doesnt have it
i dont have the time right now to watch the video
but if the rot is typical which i cannot guarantee
er reqs will match those of the gear in iana doc
you'll need someone else to verify if the rot in the video is a typical one or a bad one
its this, is it a good rotation?
hopefully its a good rotation?
Hows everyone feeling about character buIlding resources now, as we're getting into the middle of 1.1 I'm starting to feel a lot less constained than at the start. Especially if you purchase battle pass.
It felt bad in 1.0, now resources are starting to feel ok, maybe a lot of that is the insane amount of sanity they have been giving out though.
Guys I have question regarding Pog's ult
All it says was "Summons 4 Shield guards and 5 Steel Oath pts, and AFTER dealing status or pog cs, consumes 1 steel oath point to damage and recover SP"
If this is the case, isn't it better to;
Pog Ult, Lifeng ult, Lifeng&Chen BS, (4 status now, Decisive Assault activates, DA DOES NOT consume status), Pog BS, Lifeng CS, Chen Ult?
I have always been satisfied with the character building resources income but I am probably one of the people who invested in the least amount of characters in this channel. I only play Cryo for now and have LR TT at max investment (except potentials) and their common supports at lv80 skills mostly lv9. I have a lot of resources and barely had to farm anything aside from masteries.
I wish sanity costs are half it is
I really enjoyed the Sanity Discount event
Anyway can someone test it out?
- Are you P1 Lifeng because the rot doesnt work otherwise
- Better than what
Sadly no P1
My problem with 434/344 is that it takes so long and so much SP to do even with Pog
takes too long for what
To wait for SP
Can't I like do it with just one burst
i mean if its like protocol space farming sure
but you can kinda just dump w/e there
?
not that bad now, I have a shit ton of resources e.g 2.2M t creds 400+ protohedrons, they have to keep pumping events but I do want more recurring combat events because umbral is quite boring ngl
Yeah I'm in a similar position to yourself rn, tons of resources not sure who to invest into next (most likely Rossi). Even started to get a nice stockpile of Gel to max out an Essence quickly.
gilberta sig should be pretty skippable right 
considering stanza exists
I pulled to 60 for the dossier and she jumped me
not that I'm complaining
how do you have 1.5k gel
😭
nvm you're just rich in everything
gilb sig is nice to have but its a premium buy
it's between that and tt sig
Tangtang sig is 3x higher priority to be honest.
She doesn't have a good alternative. Gilberta does.
Tangtang sig is like the best sig in the game right now, in terms of gains
?
yeah this is like mine minus the gels since I use em recently and blue hedrons like half of em lol, not pulling rossi because not interested at all since I have leva and hybrid looks weird w what units we got for her rn. I'm waiting for Mi fu (possibly) and Zhuang and the birb from v4 story
Got yourself the whole premium ice team now assuming you also have LR.
depends on definitions
Yep, Tangtang + 3 empty spaces is still one of the best teams in the game rn. 
a premium vanguard option is missing, plus arguably a 'better' buffer than xaihi to finish it
my LR
yeah need a vanguard
then it's 99% there
xaihi is alr so good
I am also awaiting a Cryo Vanguard
I feel like there has to be a generalist vanguard not named akekuri in the works somewhere
i don't think so
i wouldnt expect a generalist anytime soon but i would welcome it regardless
every 6* vanguard that will come will prob be specific to a certain element or something
like how pog is for phys
@drifting quest did u see this? i mean, u were helping me out and u just didnt afterwards
looks to be a rhodagn sandbagging rot
is there a more general rot? assuming u need to dodge
does iana doc not have one for the tangtang team
wym is that bad
i thought there was one
if its only there to beat up rhodagn then yes
she does have for perlica but doesnt for gilberta for some reason
the rot should be very similar if not identical
just replacing perlica stuff for typical gilb stuff
this is perlica's
looks more realistic at a glance
but again i dont care about last rite so i dont look at last rite tc
but it shouldn't be the same as xaihi's gear is very different from gilberta to perlica
I wish we had way more CC units
for other teams
phys team cooks umbral stage 2 so easy
other teams struggle
gilb holds xiranite
perlica cannot
cc has been infinitely more valuable than damage
so you have xaihi on xiranite when perlica
in the current state of the game
for umbral it has yeah
but, how do u get 74.8% ult gain with that set?
on xiranite?
on the yellow kit one
I wonder if Ice remains the strongest team in 1.2 or if the dynamic switches up towards a different element. I mean if Rossi has some silly modifier values on her skills it may not end up the strongest team in 1.1. But Rossi for me is still a complete unknowable if she'll be good or bad rn. I hope she's good just because we don't need another "potential" character we need another sure hit like Tangtang ideally. 
Going to be interesting how things evolve.
either gilb stuff assumes precharged ult 1 rot
or the rot is different
again i dont look at lr tc
didn't u say tt was a little overtuned 
is there someone u know that does look at lr tc?
ping him if so
couldnt name anyone who has deep dived off the top of my head
or maybe ping iana himself idk, since hes the one that made the guide
there's a bunch of lr speedrunners but they speedrun
hmmm
the environments are always so peak for umbral
always showing off huh
Yeah, she is overtuned. She's argubly the best DPS depending on your defintions & Requirements. She's one of the better supports in the game right now. An to add to that she's great for applying inflictions even in AoE content. She really doesn't have a weakness outside of not providing the team tons of SP / healing. 
I hope they get rid of SP return or make it better
, prob not best dps at P0 but higher pots ye I can see it
sp return is a mechanic of all time
a mechanic that shouldn't exist
quite
or they can make it into real sp
could just mean u instantly get more sp instead of generating it
i dont have enuf uge for this 
p4
still not enuf
i wanna run catastrophe but either gil or xai gets fucked cuz theyre coping w no artif lol
stuck at 35 36

have u tried swiping
maybe they'll add a food just for u
or something
for every uge % u pay $10
meanwhile my ass with lightnight speed clear

3mins
how fast r solos actually
around 3 min i would assume
almost died lol
ye the firework + smash isnt dodgeable so i ate it everytime. took me way to long to realize you just have to run away
wait, can tangtang be main carry?
always
im using p0 tangtang. her clearspeed is as fast/faster than chen
oh nvm . talking about team xD
she cna solo trim medals tho
run away? I always eat that skill, hence I had to pass the level by running lavacake + ember + snowshine + ardelia

ye you have to dodge once for firework and sprint away from the shockwave
cant dodge that i tried xD
and he spams it like 5 times in a row at the end
imo he is the hardest boss- for solo
why does tangtang have to do final strike instead of last rite?
lmao oh true
even my 14000 hp vanguard gets burnt to death
i tried to dodge firework+ Jump because of the shockwave. but it seems like he hits u anyway midair before the impact of the shockwave
wut is this software/website
pinned guide
the boss is cool tho
ehh why do i not find it
its on the bottom of pins
still not able to find it... im blind i guess ><
switch on the bottom there to the team u want
have u never used google docs before?
but i still cannot find that screenshot
last rite > scroll down
oh i was looking at yvonne..
oh shit this is gonna be bug abuse and its great
thx... but i do wonder what software/website was used... i would try looking for some sauce
that idk
he starts prepping rage by 36-7 
my complaint was it being uncommonly tanky. Bro is tankier than his boss Ruan Yi for a level you cannot take medicine into.
true. but its mainly the enrage mode tho
how is the new content?
Good for 4.5 minutes of fun 
i guess thats all we can ask for
i picked up ZZZ to hold me off until next big content update
gonna try to do that one all F2P
I hate stage 2
these devs need help
they don't even look at feedback
im a big fan of new umbral
i will continue to say this
they cooked good
hoping its a trend
but knowing the average player it will get toned down sadly
actually engaging mechanics that stop you from playing rotation simulator with your brain off
decent hp amounts that arent bloated
actually threatening enemy attacks
it also made people change their teams to counter mechanics. well at least Physical did
ive done all 3 with laev, mono phys and tangtang main dps
didnt change it up
but i do like that it does encourage alternative teambuilding
i also like that you are not required to
tbh I think it's healthy for phys specifically to have to play to counter stuff
considering that usually it just ignores shit via stagger
thats all i did this umbral
agreed
did any of you actually have a comfortable time with phys on the second stage the arsonists take like 10 years to stagger
u can still ignore it with pysical

idk if you can realistically call it comfortable because the whole point of the stage is that you can't perfect dodge
but it was fine
well yes that's the point
it could use more adversarial design
I did it with lae first on my phone then phys when I got home
yea i just went through with Xai, LR, Yvonne, and TangTang. last set was a bit more challenging i think
to give tangtang xaihi buff too
since it only give the one who do final strike
whats "comfortable"
im such a huge fan of this umbrals gimmicks
they're genuinely so well designed
whoever it is on hypergryphs team working on it
master chefs
very much a breath of fresh air being asked to play the game more like a sentient person and less like a rotation macro
in this genre as a whole
yeah
i would happily call current umbral monument the best endgame of any gacha in the genre
in my opinion, naturally
so, u have to do final for one char then proceed to do the other to give the buff to both?
thats the ideia yeah
i c, thanks
does anyone have the history of arsenal exchange buyable 6* weapons? is this correct:
grand vision
oblivion
valiant
clannibal
detonation unit
former finery
eminent repute
rapid ascent
clannibal
Grand Vision
Oblivion
Valiant
Clannibal
Detonation Unit
Former Finery
Eminent Repute
Oblivion
Rapid Ascent
Clannibal
||Valiant
Exemplar||
full until start of 1.2
spoiler tagged for ones not yet in rotation
(they came from datamines, validated by the same datamines being correct for rapid ascent and clannibal)
thanks, was hoping chivalric would come but saw clannibal again :/ i have like no good support weapons
n valiants shit
lifengs second bis for now
id expect there's some metagaming to be had with potentially the male sankta being a physical support who also uses a polearm, to share valiant with
but that's ultimately pretty baseless speculation
after all Tangtang and Yvonne don't particularly share weapon choices, Rossi and Chen feels like more of a coincidence
Is the basic/standar hh will change ? Or add more operator *6 ?
3 in a row arsenal tickets today from credit shop 
big 60 tickets
rossi, ember, akekuri, pog
certainly a team
thats the reaction for all rossi teams
i suppose
twitter is even funnier saw the post showing rossi from endfield official top comment was who does she replace in physical top awnser was chen
i mean yeah its either chen or lifeng

chen is forever, the only one who will replace chen is chen alter 
the arguement is she has 2 arms lifeng doesnt shes clearly better
theyre gonna fuck up the numbers somehow
and playing into her mechanics is gonna not be worth it

is my read
inflated number?
yeah thats on par with other people
rossi have the same vul applier as chen. she just convert arts into 1 vuln.
chen is still better, since she doesnt need so many requirements
her vuln application should be worse than chens
true
on average
cause u need atleast 2 people to make reach her full potential
its just sp issues yes
technically ange alone enough
we also dont know if rossi combo procs as soon as its cooldown ends, afaik
she needs
ange??
or if it only procs when you apply
gilberat
wulfgard alter 1.3
yeah but gilberta still needs another operator to active her cs
gil shifts structure and lets you take another unit that is like
half a support basically
on top of being able to hit rossi conditionals
but it doesnt like free up the slot completely
true, and susceptibility
the one like really complete core
is rossi gil wulf
and then vuln spender in last slot
but I think they will just fuck up the numbers tuning
and something weird is going to be optimal
sp hungry
pog 
a lot of people seem to think its just not gonna be worth having a consumer
because the damage is so gimped
the problem is if you have a vuln spender wont sp just be beyond dogshit
akekuri, pog will fix that
it's just da pan
dapan is 0 sp spending
he spends 0
combo ult only
its just a case of if his damage share beats another buffer and trying to buff rossi arts damage more
but pog might be better
would it just be rossi spending sp in that team?
if giving rossi 52% atk is more worth
there's also like rossi shatter
rossi is like 35/65 phys/magic
but it looks a lot like tangtang shatter
magic
and it's honestly
Also how does Gilberta even fit on Rossi teams, like Gil can buff Rossi's damage but wouldn't all the arts susceptibility go to waste for the other operators? unless I got it wrong, idk
not impossible for ard to be usable
gil and wulf can hit all rossi conditionals
with 2 bars spent
it's not perfect compatibility
partially because rossi fire stack is only applied at end of ult which is cancer
but oh well
shes so cooked
I think asking this question at all
is indicative of a lack of understanding
5morbillion% dmg numbers rossi plz
of what the unit is even doing
Never used physical
this unit isnt physical
there's a good chance that rossi being physical is cosmetic
and her arts damage share is most of her damage profile
okay just got home and did the umbrals
is it that bad?
i heard second or third one is bad
i think i'm not doing the first or second stage with 4 stars, but they were pretty reasonable with a more normal team
perlica gil
i heard something about solidification
actually engaging stages
3rd stage i did first try and then did it again with 4 star only on my second run
oh theres new umbrals
I think the new stages would be good if we like had more units in the game but we dont
aint daat basically ember lol
well ember is just a physical unit
ember is cosmetic heat unit
yeah
rossi could be cosmetic physical in the same sense
i dont think it will be that extreme
isnt she physical?
fake heat character
so it's not insane at all for the team damage split
to actually be 50/50
or even more in physical favour
real
all we have to go off is the devs saying ult is her biggest damage share
so dual dps setup for rossi?
her skills are heat
which is very ambiguous as to what exactly it means
depends on number tuning
physical heat team when
there's dual dps in rossi + crusher
and there's dual dps in rossi + perlica
ember being heat at all is basically purely detrimental
when rossi is out but itll just be worth then a full heat or physical team
unl;ess they give rossi crack for her numbers
rossi, ember, akekuri, pog
they have to
id prefer if rossi is mid and they continue to make kits like it
we dont need tangtang style powercreep every unit
chat im tired,now i finish my purpose i think i will make other silly build like chen ult gain cause she is only like what 70 energy with 15% discount 😭
but all ult gain come with int stats
she will explode
the only reason rossi has physical at all is so they can release 1 physical character each patch
rossi has so many team comps, you stop thinking whats the best teammates for her at this point
get consumed by the phys
i can even use rossi, chen, ake, pog
oh w8
i dunno how to activate chen's cs without using her bs
scrap it
she has so many potential team comps
ember it is
doesnt make them all good
true
once you stop caring about what's optimal any team works
because of that tc has no reason to exist
hence why we mostly tend to look at just what is optimal
fortmaker better for akekuri or obj edge of ightess?
obj for heat or electric teams mostly
fortmaker for any other teams and some niche rotations for laev
ideally you grab thermite whenever it comes in shop, 1.2+
what foodbuff to use? ginseng or kunst tube?
ginseng is almost always better than kunst
but ginseng vs jakubs is more contested
Laev stuck with her heat mechanic, on other hand her mechanic is really effective with her current cheap team, befitting to 1.0 character.
Yvonne is more flexible tbh
cryo kinda have more variation currently
physical, still trying their best to say the least

2 of the 3 'meta' cryo teams basically do the same thing with different main dps units
and then 3 of the 4 slots are always the same in any optimal team, only the last is flex and the flex options while theoretically varied are practically narrow when considering optimal setups
not sure id call it more flexible than laev who is in a very similar slot
true
me when 1.1 of a gacha
We need more rossi-like teams. But i hope they don't all end up having gilberta as recommended teammate 
id certainly be all for more kits like rossi's
but it depends on how she sells, most likely
if she flops financially then we likely just end up with kits aligned with the ones that do sell
Many people will definitely use her because of versatility
the problem with her versatility is shes just worse then pure heat or phys
unit and if we get units better suited to doing both while also doing stuff for rossis kit
therefore
Rossi is pretty good as a character tbh, the problem is dev forgot to introduce 5* and 4* char on rossi release
wulfgard alter 1.3

Do you think well get future 4 star?
impossible to tell
id hope at worst we get like a set each x.0
4 stars? Maybe not. 5 stars? Possibly.
the 4* currently has one of each weapon type and 1 of each element
so if we get new elements and/or new weapon types it's likely we get a new 4* to go with those
If they only develop new 6* characters, it will be very very slow on team roster upgrade
Like we dont want 3 whole patch only to complete rossi team
Rossi is just a heat striker in guard clothing 
3 whole patch for yvonne team
Legit rossi's whole kit is designed around building up to her ult
Yvonne team pretty much finished with 1.0 and 1.1 imo
I doubt they will introduce new 6* that can replace xiahi
i mean yvonne would happily drop gilb for something like a premium vanguard or another cryo buffer
and xaihi is more replaceable than you think
i do rag on her a lot to be fair
I do agree gilb is replaceable on yvonne team, mainly because of her nature stack
I currently have a P4 Sundersteel for Chen, and I still have 1 Dark Tide weapon selector to get Glorious memory and only take it to P4, is this worth doing this or is the damage inc very negligible?
damage increase if you play into it is decently notable
but if you dont need the dps increase why bother
Gm is significant increase
But replacing gilberta is not as urgent as replacing akekuri or wulfgard for laeva lol
You could build a pretty normal Heat Carry team for Rossi and be fine. Actually might end up being the go-to depending on modifiers for her phys damage.
Rossi pairs extremely well with Gilberta and wulf. Could throw in Perlica maybe as that last slot or Akekuri (Electrification vs. Link)
Another way to go about it is focusing on combo damage and use operators like Endmin/Dapan, ardelia, and pog like a psuedo phys team 
Gm is ult loading
yeah still kinda pissy we havent gotten any numbers yet
alas i am forced to skip her because i pulled tangtang
so i gotta bug other people to test it all
Against stuff you don't chen ult ss is probably a little better
But against bosses gm is big
I'm definitely gonna be getting her so I can run some tests 
Half the akef players are pulling her
Shouldn't be hard

i havent seen too many in the tc communities that are
trust in dossier pull lol
other than like cc's who pull everything or whales
I've gotten both Yvonne and Gil in 30 pulls so it shouldnt be that hard
If thats the case use akekuri since sp regen is so scarce
im probably going to throw 30 (+10) at her banner
10 free, 5 login, 5 shop, 10 paid and then extra 10 dossier
so i can cope
Soon people are gonna run out of their pulls lol
I have 80 pulls ready. And then i lost 50:50 
You can prob squeeze 40 minimum
Gl brohamster
I already spent like 250 pulls since release, hopefully i have enough pulls left for rossi
I know Rossi doesn't need a healer since she can heal on her crit
But it still depends on how much healing is that
i mean we've been running healerless comps for ages
just play better
the tc special
learn n practice
one of those things we dont tend to consider in tc because its like

Casual would nevah
just a given
There also isn't like a super convinient healer either tbh
Picking up sheep and using ard bs is annoying
More like there is no way to actually calc the healing impact on dps
I've never built my ardelia but watching my friends runs around grabbing sheeps to heal looks so annoying
my comfort team has xaihi so i've never had to deal with it
I just meant guides would care more for including heal options
If healing with chars wasn't a hassle
Shield like amber should be the way
Because aint no way we got an entire class as useless class
Im sure defender will get some good char eventually
save the defender society mi fu
Mi fu is gonna be thanos trust
Nah, mifu is cryo vanguard
fangyi's support 
Plz no
Im gonna go bankrupt
Had to spend for tt already

You are gonna go bankrupt either way
Mi fu is basically guaranteed to be in 1.2
this arknight make defender class useless 
tho they r hot af
Tbh
Defenders
Do serve a purpose
Imo
They are really good at keeping you alive
their assets keeping me alive 
This is not derogatory
Im being genuine
I think if i was disabled or smth but still wanted to enjoy akef
And play everything
defender on Enfield like 
I'd run defender and would have a lot better of a time
Both exploration and boss fights
i try to build amber crit to cope, but it still below mid 
They are really good for tanking hits
something about the kit just not right
not for environment damage

bro
ember doesnt want a dedicated crit build
cant even cope man
just do stagger build on her, hg literally give ember privilege

literal perfect gear set, including the stat
and we got the new swordmancer pieces perfect for her
sm beacon is perfect for stagger ember
What privilege
i will try to farm it then
perfect gear in effect n stat
str will + pysical bonus + sm set
Huh
theres 0 dead stat on her gear right now 
have you been using MI on ember 
Brain malfunction
Meant stagger
Which is what the convo is on
Idk how that happened

bruh, drink water 
dont say that
Whar
stay hydrated
stay high and dry
How is the new umbral monument with physical? Do you just ignore/stagger the second one?
I'm fairly sure you can facetank the enrage
Although the very easy solution is to bring one operator with inflictions
stagger turbo
birds n arsonist== chen flipper
chen proving yet again her goated status
Chen's not a goat, she's a Lung!



They do have by far best stagger
Considering every application of Vuln (Outside breach and Crush) has stagger attached to it and theres a literal set or 2 of gear that provides even more stagger. Yes.
I wonder why 🗿
It'll all be Avy's fault 
Leave me alone meanies im just responding to the guy talking abt phys cc

- perma corrosion 4
300 intensity corro 🗣️

85 intelligence among the 300

i wish i can make low intelligence team, but lacking 2 other dummies
lr technically got 93 int 
Didyouknow, Ember has 86 Int. She's a whole 1 Int smarter than Chen and TT
Yvonne has 82 str
Who has highest base str
ember?
probably due to hunger 
ember has 1 more str than dapan
int scale for each time she eat food,lower the food the harder to control her 😭
I did the thing, what gear do I give her?
is chen atk normally this low? im too used to seeing 5k on fully built characters
go rest in wuling?
wuling give buff so sometime it inflated
this is my endmin outside of wuling tho
but i do understand her weapon gives atk% second line
5* vs 6*
Barely
i believed just because stats distribution
dps generally have higher main stats
Im not surprised if gilberta has more base atk than chen tbh
297 vs 329
which ones gilb
329
only secondary stat not artificed
GM diff
Yinlin diff
wtf yinlin jumpscare
oh you run swordmancer too
yea
yh i dont like how yinlung feels
also wanna maximize this talent
first off she dont want that sword 😭 🙏
Max essecne yet?
^ fr
Just max stack sundering then check
maybe ill hit 4k but thats it 
What going on here
You're missing 24% atk so 🗿
U telling me she have lower atk than my ardelia
I’m going to use it regardless
What R
4
well ur making her a tank/healer?
you may as well just build her with lynx and all in her healing then because you are not fielding her with that weapon
Then yea 24
all in healing, or all in UGE idfk
ember healing from combo and shield from ult contradicts each other
...or is it?
sig encourages you to lean into the shield more yea
yeah but you can just shield after combo
and when the shield is down the combo should be ready again
...it's a 19s cd combo and a 10s duration ult nvm
realistically wtf are you doing to need all that anyways tbh
Good question
Go for the funni thickest Ember
didn't even M1 her ult smh my head
wtf that's so much hp
5k shield 
Her sig give 4k shield after combo 
as much health as an entire team
what boss can even deplete that within 10s
what could even kill her?
M3 would be 8k
Because the shield bonus from sig
If only she have some sort of buff (that not p5) I really like team with balance dps and survivability
Ember is like Zhongli pre buff, an immovable object, but nothing outside of that
Still not showed off Rossi’s weapon with drip marketing right?
