#[Leona] New Unit Megathread

1 messages · Page 3 of 1

whole berry
#

by know I mean assume with the leaks tbh

blazing smelt
#

40 sec burst tho so can be used with tove on 2-1-2 comp

warped cape
#

If Isabel was a real unit bruh

#

they'd be no need to cope

#

Alas SU had other plans

vagrant monolith
#

So tldr Leona is big skip, wait for wishlist?

lost oasis
#

prob 1 copy

#

she doesnt scale off casters attack so thats good

#

ideally im looking for

#

tove + leona + sugar + b3 cdr healer that gives at least 10-20% hit rate and is not a shotgun + guilty comp

blazing wing
#

Leona is another sg buffer?

sacred heath
#

*kisecope buffer

lost oasis
#

i mean she's good

#

if her pellets actually result in 50% damage increase

warm barn
#

Nayuta is SG not Liberalio mb deadge

#

Nayuta half anniv copium

elder salmon
#

she would honestly pair well with tove and leona

#

actual crit comp

#

even viper is a missed opportunity

#

ill just go Tove | Leona | Drake | Sugar |
5th will be:

  • Dolla for CDR or S Helm if electric type
  • Marciana if i need heals & shield
  • Privaty for power and reload
  • XMica to keep tove Burst effect kept permanently
lost oasis
#

drake is actually really weak

#

lol

#

if 5th slot was a big DPS then drake wud b fine

elder salmon
#

well... can swap here and there between 2nd B3 and 5th slot

#

i mostly wanted Aria party buffs

#

gib that hit rate to EVERYONE

#

now with all the crit of leona...

#

its what....

#

34% + Default 15%?

#

With Tove, we touching 52%?

#

Sugar can reach 65%

#

Dolla giving 4.21% so... 69 or 70% for Sugar and 56~57% for the others cuz i just rounded the numbers

#

oh wait nvm, dolla needs to burst to give that buff

#

ah, helm gives a whooping 14.64% crit rate

#

so 64~65% everyone and 79~80% Sugar Crit rate

#

sounds good to me

terse edge
#

you guys got distracted by all these shotgun things

#

leona is actually a crit supporter

#

look at her permanent crit rate buff in skill 1and crit damage buff during burst

warm barn
#

Mast is better too

#

The reason for increased pellet

#

Is to have more pellets on core

#

Not as much

#

If a circle has 10 shots, then an inner circle with half radius would probably only take 2.5 shots (division by 4).

terse edge
#

so you mean the 5 pellet thing is a hidden hit rate buff?

warm barn
#

But it is indeed hit rate buff

#

Well yes it is hitrate buff

#

But it doesnt improve dmg

#
  • If a circle has 10 shots, an inner circle with half radius would take 2.5 of those. 7.5 * 15 + 2.5 * 15 * 2 = 187.5.
  • If a circle has 15 shots, then it would take 3.75 shots. 11.25 * 10 + 3.75 * 10 * 2 = 187.5.
#

So no, it wouldnt increase damage against enemies at longer range even.

#

I think this is their fallacy.

#

Their maths must be wrong.

#

Because they thought adding pellets would increase damage in long range.

#

It only increases consistency but not the overall damage.

terse edge
#

thanks for explaining. imagine all 5 extra shots also miss the rapture

#

lol

#

so damage does not increase for the extra 5 pellets

warm barn
terse edge
#

also all these crit supporters are:

  • volume: 31.9 crit rate + 38 crit damage for 5 secs during burst
  • mast: 76 crit damage for 7 secs during burst. arbitrary def down using her own def
  • leona: permanent 12.5 crit rate + 33 crit damage for 10 secs during burst. extra 21 crit rate for sg
#

leona is going to challenge mast in crit department since volume is always having a slot in raid teams

terse edge
#

i think so too. at least mast is more interesting than just pure crit support

#

also forget mast has some max hp shenanigans going on

steep cargo
#

Well, it has a number assigned to it but there is no like, base hit rate like there is crit rate

elder salmon
#

eh?

#

i didnt talk about hit rate

#

i went purely on crit rate...

#

34.42 + 15% default crit rate?

#

i forgor whats the dfault crit rate

terse edge
#

it's 15% default crit rate yeah

elder salmon
#

ok

#

so with tove we are beyond 50%

warm barn
#

to all Shotgun chars

elder salmon
#

yes yes, for SG

#

im mainly talking about SG

warm barn
#

Leona is good

#

But SG is not complete

#

Yet

elder salmon
#

exactly

warm barn
#

Maybe invested can reach 1b right now already

elder salmon
#

they starting with the buffers

warm barn
#

With Leina

elder salmon
#

we already have sugar

warm barn
#

But look

elder salmon
#

later well get the dps

warm barn
#

Smary -> Mast -> 2B

#

Tove -> Leona -> Nayuta

#

Makes sense

terse edge
#

LET HIM COOK

warm barn
#

Half anniv

elder salmon
warm barn
#

Her weapon is SG and I think she is PSID too

elder salmon
warm barn
#

Tove and Leona being water is sus

#

Its kinda saying the next char is also water

elder salmon
#

tove is sus being water

#

but hey... snowy mountain memes

warm barn
#

Nayuta is water SG "defender"

#

Sus

#

They alr preplan

elder salmon
#

i aint holding my breath on nyanya

warm barn
elder salmon
#

nayuta, 1st middle and last letters

warm barn
elder salmon
#

ill believe the SG, ill sit back on the element

warm barn
#

Nyanya is nero

elder salmon
#

i KINDA stopped caring for elements unless shield content cuz im still coping on the mono element bonus effect mecanic

terse edge
#

chime and crown getting delayed once again for this

warm barn
#

Chime is free

elder salmon
#

2.5 you mean

warm barn
#

Chime is free

#

Crown is gacha

elder salmon
#

im guessing that we'll have to wait for the testers to see if the max range effect is additional or multiplicative?

rancid furnace
#

i saw that

vagrant monolith
elder salmon
#

if its +20 to have 45%, we touching the sniper range

#

if not.. its just 30% (+5%) and touching AR range

vagrant monolith
warm barn
#

because its exactly the same number as AR

warm barn
#

Chime is SMG

#

Nayuta is SG

#

Liberalio is unknown

warm barn
elder salmon
#

hmmm

#

so despite sniper STARTING at 45% it woulnd mean being on its range area

#

still... fine i guess

vagrant monolith
elder salmon
#

just let me use my skill reset edvice whenever i want

crimson harness
#

whose fucking idea was this

#

if you need more hits then just run an MG

bitter prairie
#

ded thread already deadge

last sage
#

Fuck wrong channel again

elder salmon
#

i wonder how good it would be if Neve was SSR tho

#

her kit isnt dogshit

glacial nova
#

RIP isabel

#

forever deadge unit

bitter prairie
#

If only the extra pellets actually increased DPS

#

And actually means increased burst gen

#

Then I guess Isabel wouldn't be collecting as much dust as she's collecting right now

#

But the next problem there will be CDR

elder salmon
#

Isabel needs:

  • Triple Crit Rate
  • Double Crit Damage
  • 10s Damage taken
  • Delete the FBT Reduction time
    And u got a good crazy flying woman
trim echo
#

the final exodia part will have the most overloaded kit possible

dps
cdr
heal

elder salmon
#

shiet... why did i reply

#

that reload time

#

1.5s but if held button, will she act like pepper with few bullets or like naga with all bullets

#

where video

#

dang... cant see ammo either

#

wtf are those previews, they actually went big brain and hide everything except skill icons

#

inb4 leona was doing big dmg and then nerfed to do worst than smg

craggy shuttle
#

She's not clip reload shotgun

#

Preview showed her to reload all 9 ammos at once

#

Which means her burst gen isn't impressive either

elder salmon
#

dang...

#

everyone is naga now

craggy shuttle
#

The last clip reload shotgun was Noir

elder salmon
#

casino ruined everything

#

oh well, leona isnt a last clip user so its fine i guess?

trim echo
#

burst gen isn't that relevant because shotty teams fill gauges like they're hydrants anyway

elder salmon
#

tho i wonder

#

if i go Tove | Xmica | Leona | Sugar | B3 SG, will the burst gen even be good cause mica + SG?

trim echo
#

idk if losing Guilty for Xmica is worth it

dapper swallow
#

I'm back

#

after some cooking

#

they did nerf Leona S2

#

else Sugar will be uncontrollable

#

I think her overall buff looks decent but you will have to sacrifice healing/cdr

hollow owl
#

but hot woman

#

that's probably what shift up thought they make Leona S2 useless

dapper swallow
#

No cdr = lose 7% dmg on sugar

#

S2 increase dmg = windlet

#

Yeah no

#

Just no

trim echo
#

honestly if the pellets also gave extra damage it would be out of control

#

that's a multiplicative 50% extra damage on full burst

dapper swallow
#

with CDR, she's top 4, requires Leona Tove + Dolla
Without CDR (no Dolla), requires Leona + Tove, she's top 5

#

Leona Tove Sugar > Scarlet with Doro + Sanis

#

now if you multiply her dmg by 1.5

#

she's 2nd to Blacklet only

#

that's... overboard

trim echo
#

what comp are you using with that r1 sbs in your sheet?

dapper swallow
#

Volume Blanc Noir on Scar, Liter Tia Naga on Red without pierce

steep cargo
#

Or are u just nerfing scalter

dapper swallow
#

no, it was old data

trim echo
#

was just wondering since a lot of folks are using volume with bunnies instead of liter

dapper swallow
#

because JKs are the best couple now

#

so you pair the best support with them

half mica
#

So Leona is good now?

steep cargo
#

Till then is better to run what is being run

orchid sail
#

Crown and Chime for best SG duo support just watch Doro

half mica
orchid sail
#

then maiden would be #1 elysion tower carry Doro

half mica
#

shotgun DPS with cdr and healing capabilities?

#

My Elysion carry is still Guillo and Brid

#

Marciana healing is crazy tho

steep cargo
half mica
orchid sail
#

inb4 isabel balance update Doro

half mica
#

maybe one character with offburst cdr ability

#

like, last hit and stuff

#

like Dorothy's CDR is last hit right?

#

Probably the rotation should be: Tove > Leona > Sugar ; Tove > Leona > B3 SG Healer

dapper swallow
#

if you can afford OL-ing Sugar

#

I'm sure Sugar Leona Tove is better than Doro Scarlet Sanis Cdoro

steep cargo
steep cargo
dapper swallow
#

ATK - Crit rate - Crit dmg

steep cargo
#

Since sugar is 1 carry, 4 supports

#

No?

steep cargo
dapper swallow
#

I don't think Drake is a support

#

well depend on boss

#

not MatH

#

forget it

steep cargo
#

Drake is a support bruh

#

Ok so what even do we run then
Tove Leona sugar drake dolla?

dapper swallow
#

now when you combine them all, yeah Doro + Scar + Sanis should deal more dmg than whatever SG team can bring

dapper swallow
#

Scarlet < Sugar
Doro > everyone else
Sanis > everyone else

#

and the gap is not even big that Sugar can clap everything else like Snow Why

sacred heath
#

bro think i would bench fully built scarlet sanis for some wackass sg cope

dapper swallow
#

but

#

what if you didn't roll Sanis

#

SG comp is the best alternative

sacred heath
#

then u prolly still trying to figure out how to clear SI now

dapper swallow
#

not really, my friend who joins after Summer, can clap all SI now

#

due to Xlud + Red + Salt

#

JKs too

sacred heath
#

its exaggeration

#

but no, no sane day 1 player except kisecope would do such thing

dapper swallow
#

yeah, quite sad

#

even team 5 in SR is fierce competition now

sacred heath
#

ye thats too

#

imagine have to spend rocks on sugar just to make 2 supports look good and ignore un-finished meta omega dps monkeys waiting on rocks

dapper swallow
#

in b4 Leona S2 increases 50% dmg

half mica
#

But if you hyperinvest, damage should be more than white scarlet Said some random youtuber

drowsy bluff
half mica
#

everything is getting benched once you hyperinvest in said character

elder salmon
#

but guys

#

what if Overcock has stage bonus and on Day 1 its SG bonus?

lost oasis
#

hold up

#

that wud b kinda cool

#

if they have like significant stage bonus that forces certain weapon types

elder salmon
#

i mean, the old SIM has all kind of buffs you gotta pick, what if overcock has a set buff per day/week that gets better as you make it harder?

#

if day 1 is SG related buffs, woulnd that make leona and SG gang good?

lost oasis
#

overcock

elder salmon
#

clock

#

fuck eingrysh

#

need to go read dev notes again

vagrant monolith
lost oasis
#

its okay i have overload on D

vagrant monolith
elder salmon
#

so...

#

the last dev note was december

sacred heath
lost oasis
#

@steep cargo ban this guy

#

he hurt my feelings

steep cargo
#

I am

#

Very tired

elder salmon
#

you touch elysion tower?

#

brave man

#

here's a Module

sick geode
#

I brought this up in Eden channel, but

#

Leona standalone could be valid buffer for S. Anis, dependent on how effective the range up buffs are

#

S. Anis has the highest shotgun atk multiplier, at almost 300%

#

depending on how tight the spread becomes, it could mean she's not just reliant on s2 for dmg

#

Valid on teams that would not appreciate the ammo up from Tove, cuz last bullet

#

not just Summer Anis, but Pepper or Marciana too. Pepper would be awesome with this setup if we had a b3 cd burst reduction unit for efficiency

#

Vesti is good, tho...

sly sand
#

so sanis owner need to roll

sick geode
#

I wouldn't say need

#

after all, it's just a theory, I have no idea how much of a dmg increase S. Anis would get from having more pellets hit the target

#

since most of her dmg is from s2 currently

#

even though we see the numbers of what her buffs do

#

what they actually mean has yet to be determined, since she has two brand new effects, pellets up and 'effective range up' (not even just a hit rate buff)

#

like, even though pellets apparently does NOT increase the total dmg per shot

#

if it realistically means a higher percentage of pellets hit center target, then it's still an effective dps increase, but by how much?

#

but again, all theories

#

will be better to see what it means for real

dapper swallow
hollow owl
#

im definitely Leona simp

sick geode
#

yeah, i'm gonna go for it

#

as usual, more 'future planning'

#

i just love building units, even though i'm not really a whale

#

my synchro device is at 55 slots

shut acorn
#

SugarBamboozled

#

wish me luck on the banner

sick geode
#

oh yeah, would definitely be fun to stack everything on sugar.

#

tove AND Leona and sugar bursting with like idk how much ammo she would get at that point, like 40

#

can she even fire her entire mag

#

full of long range shells

shut acorn
#

I can get Sugar to 24 max ammo during Burst with Tove right now

#

and she has 3 Max Ammo OLs

shut acorn
dapper swallow
#

Leona doesn't increase Ammo

sick geode
#

sugar and tove do

#

oh yeah, sugar's aspd self buff does stack with tove's

#

but how effective is it, really? don't shotguns have an effective cap (all weapons do, but MGs are the only ones that reach it by default)

dapper swallow
#

with Tove

#

Leona can stack her S1 after 15s

#

and 100% uptime too

shut acorn
#

do i have to manually control Leona to reach that?

dapper swallow
#

probably, if boss jumps around too much

#

if it stands like a dumb shit

#

just let AI shoots

shut acorn
#

ok i was worried it would be like Pepper

sick geode
#

shotguns can shoot anywhere

dapper swallow
#

nah

#

needs valid target

sick geode
#

real? leona's doesn't even say anything about hitting a target

#

i stack up my pepper's s1 all the time like this

dapper swallow
#

I was refering to the shoot anywhere

#

you can't shoot air

sick geode
#

ah

dapper swallow
#

shoot anything true, not anywhere

#

need a "thing"

#

it's explained here

#

target true = needs something to shoot

#

target false = RL or SR

#

can just click air br br br

shut acorn
#

SG only shoots on raptures and debris iirc

dapper swallow
#

yep

#

MG, RL and SR can shoot air

sick geode
#

huh, i reckon all the times i thought i shot at nothing, it was actually the buildings

#

cuz yeah, i would abuse it on pepper all the time when waves of enemies (or boss waves) were preparing to spawn, lol

#

to quickly stack up her s1 heal potency stacks on the whole party.

#

anyway

dapper swallow
#

abuse Pepper

#

this hooman is asking for it

sick geode
#

noooo, wdf

#

mechanics abuse

#

why would i abuse pepper herself

#

she precious

#

anyway, to my earlier point

#

i recall there was a chart on effective aspd cap

#

the most notable thing i remember of it was that MGs could fire at 70/s, but the game engine caps them to 60/s.

#

what was the max value for shotguns?

dapper swallow
sick geode
#

yeah, i forgor where the chart was, lmao

dapper swallow
#

iirc it was from Altros

sick geode
#

it would be handy to have it rn.

#

actually, maybe someone posted it on tove's megathread?

#

i reckon it would've been relevant then for an aspd increasing unit, very rare in nikke still. (even if just for 1 weapon type)

#

brb

dapper swallow
#

ah kontosis

#

lv 10 is 2.14

sick geode
dapper swallow
#

that's

#

mine

sick geode
#

all i found so far was this on tove's megathread

dapper swallow
sick geode
#

well, i did say i am looking through it

dapper swallow
#

then book this

#

Kontos did test with Tove

#

I did mine with Sugar

#

can only verify Sugar on my thread, not really sure about Tove added in

sick geode
#

hmm, okay

#

ty for the doc.

#

i'm sry I can't really provide any actual values, i mostly stick to theorycrafting, since resources are eternally low

#

i'll bookmark this in case it becomes relevant in the future for some other shotgunner, lol

dapper swallow
#

think of Sugar + Tove = 2.89 fire rate

sick geode
#

and tove standalone for other shotgunners makes their 1.5/s fire rate like 2.1/s?

#

assuming aspd scales linearly (additive)

dapper swallow
#

it's pretty much 1.5 x (1+59%+42.24%)

#

Tove alone?

#

1.5 x 1.4224

sick geode
#

oh, i was thinking of tove alone, ya, who only provides a ~42%

dapper swallow
#

2.1 around that

sick geode
#

then yeah, that's 2.1

dapper swallow
#

cooked something this morning

sick geode
#

oh, i guess one more question with leona

#

does she have shell based or mag based reload

#

the reload spd seems so low, that i would assume it's shell based.

#

but then you have naga who is also 1.5s reload, and she reloads the entire mag (like wdf)

dapper swallow
#

mag probably

#

reload looks slow. Clip reload will show 3 progress bars back to back

sick geode
#

oh, right

dapper swallow
#

just look at Pepper for reference

sick geode
#

yeah, i was thinking of drake

#

who has a 1.52s reload, but it's shell based

craggy shuttle
#

Still don't understand what it means...

#

Isn't what even Shot bullets, the total Dmg still same?

sick geode
#

basically, the total atk is spread evenly by the number of pellets shot

#

hypothetical example (cuz it's easier to explain this way), a shotgunner unit fires 5 pellets that deal 250% atk. at max rank of leona's s2, +5 pellets added to the shot makes it 10 pellets that deal 250% atk (each pellet deals 25% atk instead of 50% atk)

#

i'd reckon the idea is that more total pellets cause more pellets overall to aim at center, resulting in an overall DPS increase if leona tightens the spread a ton.

#

like if this hypothetical unit on her own can only hit 3 pellets on a target, and all of leona's effects make it so that at least 7 pellets can hit the target, it's overall a dps increase.

#

but again, hypothetical. i think we need to wait for leona to be out to see exactly how her range up + pellets effect works, and what it does for shotgun spread.

#

like does tighter spread necessarily mean more will be biased to hit center of reticule

shut acorn
#

tighter spread should mean less chances for the pellets to spread farther

#

but who knows

sick geode
#

that's what i am assuming.

shut acorn
#

tomorrows the maint day right?

sick geode
#

yeah.

#

well, to be exact, late on the 10th/early 11th, depends on time zone

#

scarlet event will end for like half a day, and then maintenance kicks in

#

so be ready for it

shut acorn
#

got it i think im done with the current event, got everything i wanted in the event shop

sick geode
#

nier event has so far been the only event where i was able to do completely get the 50 x30 core dusts for sale, lol

shut acorn
#

after i get Leona, im thinking my SG team should be Tove-Leona-Sugar-S. Anis-Drake or maybe another better shotgun B3

sick geode
#

because it was so long, and unlike red ash, there weren't excess tickets to buy, lol

#

Tove and Sugar do not synergize with S. Anis.

#

like i theorized much earlier, standalone, Leona would work better with S. Anis, Marciana or Pepper

#

all three are 'last bullet' nikkes that don't appreciate ammo up effects, which Leona doesn't provide, unlike Tove, and Sugar gives all shotgunners basically double ammo, lol

shut acorn
shut acorn
#

Drake is there for the flex

#

maybe Noir?

sick geode
#

Noir should be good. like yeah, rip bunny twins combo

#

but unlike Blanc, Noir works pretty good standalone

shut acorn
#

yeah rip Blanc there

#

i dont think theres any other good shotgun B3s other than the ones i mentioned

#

i guess Isabel?

sick geode
#

she even has a shotgun only effect

#

Isabel pretty much needs a burst cd nikke to work well, sadly

#

when will shift up add a burst 3 burst cd nikke?

shut acorn
#

if only

#

also since the PC client is finally working on me now im gonna try and upload Sugar DPS comparisons with and without Leona tomorrow

sick geode
#

i cannot help with this, lmao

shut acorn
#

oh wahahaha

sick geode
#

i'll be honest, i have no idea.

hollow owl
#

listen

sick geode
#

UwU shirt

#

it's hard to tell what from leona's kit is a dps increase, especially after nikke twitter itself said that pellet up doesn't directly increase dmg dealt per shot

shut acorn
#

UvU more like

shut acorn
rancid furnace
#

UuU shirt Deadge

sick geode
#

something to keep in mind is that without ammo up, leona can't provide her s1 part 2 (effective range up) without reloading (15 normal attacks, 9 base ammo) and without tove, leona can't permanently upkeep the buff (default shotgunner shots/s is 1.5/s, 10s duration, 15 shots required to trigger, because reload will eventually interrupt into the 10s duration)

#

gatrix brought this up earlier, so I thought to reiterate.

shut acorn
#

so Tove has to be paired with Leona if you want to utilize her stacks as much as possible

#

kinda goes against the S.Anis, Pepper thing you mentioned a while ago

sick geode
#

well, specifically her s2 range up, if you want to 'perma upkeep' the buff

#

yeah, i know

shut acorn
#

nobody wins sadge

#

except the skippers

sick geode
#

i just didn't consider that. leona definitely wants ammo up OLs, probably on all 4, lol

#

ya, i'm just gonna use the rainbow tix from leona event on scarlet banner, lol

shut acorn
#

i might have to use my 200 gold tickets on Leona then dip

#

i only have 6k gems right now

silk current
#

deadge she worth 1 slot in wl

dapper swallow
#

anway, the general consensus is: If her S2 actually increases dmg with more pellets, you can start investing in SG now. Because it's huge

#

if not, well, wishlist and move on

rich mist
#

is it still worth building up sugar/maiden for this though?

#

just for memes tier?

sick geode
#

i agree. we'd have to see how much of a dps increase more pellets actually is. if only it was a direct DPS increase

#

then it would've been so obvious

rich mist
#

I'm thinking of building up maiden for pvp as well

sick geode
#

honestly, if you really want to make them more viable, i'd say yeah. at the end of the day, your resources, your choice.

shush

let me cope

Land Eater

steep cargo
#

otherwise its nothing but a fucking disappointment

normal people wont have enough mat to build it

#

welp

#

except kisecope

#

@sacred heath have u read scar event story

sacred heath
warm barn
#

Sugar is a better support in fact

#

All SGs are semi dps

#

Supports when OLed deal HALF of DPS (Sugar, Guilty) damage

#

Drake is higher than support damage wise

#

So no 60-75% is a sub-DPS

#

While Marciana, Pepper, Leona are semi-DPS

#

So lets assume a fully invested Tove Leona Guilty Sugar Helm team

#

This team has a DPS coefficient of 1 + 1 + 0.5 = 2.5 from Leona.

#

Most of Leona's buffs are for all Shotguns

#

Which means she also buffs herself

#

When u add a B3 SG

#

This team is considered complete

#

So in an SG team, you don't only OL the main DPS but also the supports.

This is what it is.

does she even have a idle jiggle

But no

Ure wrong about pellet increase = more dmg

Alr mathed

Accuracy yes it boosts, but no dmg increase at all

#

well i got Leona from my last pull

#

is it worth spending 200 gold tickets on her dupe?

dapper swallow
#

yep

#

more pellets but less dmg

#

her S1 works as expected: She can shoot further target and still gain bonus range (30% dmg)

#

alright, nothing fancy with her

Skippable imo

Her pellet inc is useless?

Skip, don't pull unless you fetishize shotguns

So is she not worth or only kinda worth

Ok not worth

warm barn
#

Nah, she boosts all SG damage in team by 42% overall.

#

Who uses all SG in raids tho BlancStare

warm barn
#

Including herself.

wet schooner
#

Ehh maybe I throw one in there I do like the idea of a shotgun team

warm barn
#

So, technically 42% for Guilty, 42% for Sugar, and 42% for herself.

wet schooner
#

But that would be it I would have to 1 Tap essentially lol

Tove is like 2.5x more.

250%.

No Tove, dont think Leona.

4/4/4 or 5/5/5

But dont invest yet

dapper swallow
#

fixed 20%

#

even lv 1

warm barn
#

Just pull, wait till B3 comes out

#

Then invest

runic girder
#

yeah the 20% at L1 is really comfy

dapper swallow
#

her S1 gives you 5% more crit over 10 lv

warm barn
#

Shes not used anytime soon

dapper swallow
#

her S2 is actually acceptable at 4

#

because more hit rate there = less on OL for Sugar

warm barn
#

But shes niche

#

U know why

#

U only use her when boss is outsidee effective range

dapper swallow
#

post the hit rate table here, again

warm barn
#

Otherwise u gimp ur dmg

dapper swallow
#

the range goes from 25% to 45% I'm sure

#

because I can start hitting mid range target now

#

with dmg increased

warm barn
#

Yes but if boss is close

#

Shes useless

#

Nearly

SG teams are weird

Then u invest in them

not because she's strong or something

shut acorn

should I put Leona in Synchro at least?

warm barn
#

I just know that Nayuta is SG

And she is coming

#

Sooner or later

whole berry
#

did 1 multi on leona, got punzel dupe

half mica
#

Or just wait until she's in the ordinary and mold

whole berry
#

seems ok to me

warm barn
#

I expect half anniv tho

steep cargo
#

I'm very much more interested in Moran and overclock

I think I appreciate those 2 things more and don't give a fuck about Leona thumbsupanis

Remember, Leona is an ez skip if you don't have tove.
Leona is an EVEN more easier skip if you don't love shotguns

Just fucking skip her unless you love shotguns, cuz shotguns are like, 2021 nikke BeerusYawn

wet schooner
#

I'm hoping if I don't get Leona from my 1 x10 that it's finally my Dorothy

warm barn
#

If u wanna invest long time till May feel free

#

May is prolly when u want Leona

wet schooner
#

What's happening in may

warm barn
#

Half anniv

half mica
warm barn
wet schooner
#

We getting a shotgun unit?

warm barn
#

I expect Nayuta in half anniv

wet schooner
#

Not chime and crown?

warm barn
#

I highly doubt its Lilith Chime or Crown

warm barn
wet schooner
#

Eh ngl those two don't scream full anniversary to me, half would work. I think there's gotta be someone more hype for full

warm barn
#

No one else

#

Hype can be made beforehand

wet schooner
#

Probably lol

warm barn
#

RH wasnt hyped, until teasers and leaks

wet schooner
#

True, but idk with chime and crown they are already around and I just don't feel the hype with them

warm barn
#

Shotguns will enter meta sooner or later

#

They cant keep leaving them underpowered

#

SMG is still unseen

#

Though

wet schooner
#

So we are essentially banking on the half/full anniversary units being shotguns then

warm barn
#

Most likely Nayuta

#

She is Water

#

I think(?)

#

So u have to wait till her release

#

Thats why im praying its Half Anniv

#

Because its close

#

Seeing Tove come in Nov

#

And Leona in Jan

#

Im sure the next char is March/Apr/May

whole berry
wet schooner
#

Hopefully the hope pays out, would be super cool if she comes out and now all of a sudden Leona is so good. Kind of like a Mast with 2Bs drop situation

#

What's the verdict so far with her buffs

Her S1 increases the range she can access bonus range dmg

#

Her S2 does nothing

more pellets but less dmg each

Nothing changed

He was saying something like you usually use this team (Doro S.Anis Biscuits Poly privaty) everytime in raid and then there's a second usable team as 2 dps as Doro,maciana,S.Anis,Scar,Pri
And we can also use the Isabell team so that we can put Scar somewhere else. Something like that

Let's just forget it then deadge

I’m late to the party

Can someone hit me with the TL:DR?

Is Leona meta? Is Leona shotgun queen? Is shotgun comps making a breakout? Is Leona hot?

I don’t like Guillotine, so give me real

She ain't it man

#

Pellets increasing damage was as much a lie as cakes are?

steep cargo
#

She's quite shit,
Burst is crit buffs ( keku )

While SGs do appreciate crit over core hits, they would prefer more if you just get insane hitrate

The pellet is only # of pellets increasing

#

The effective range thing in S1 is still dogshit imo

steep cargo
#

Without that, you can't really work with SG team

So they're really good at buffing clearly

Just that shit won't reach meta

Basically, they’re in waiting room

# versed prairie Basically, they’re in waiting room

An insanely specific waiting room: b3 SG cdr healer

But there's also like
Even if they do get a cdr healer, this is just my take but I think the game still requires the release of another sg DPS, someone who can powercreep sugar

The specificity of the requirement also makes it more copium than realistic

Got Leona wallpaper, took one look at it, checked the dialog on tap, turns out she’s offering food to her big animals. Tiny stick of whatever it is, to feed her many exotic beasts. What?

Dumped wallpaper pretty fast.

Not to my taste to have all those cartoony animals and background

Her normal model is low quality and the eyes have weird sharpness contrast.

Up to you

#

Frankly we have many squads already

#

More than enough for campaign

#

More than enough for tower except Elysion

#

More than enough for UR

#

SR basically full too but still could have space there

vagrant monolith
versed prairie
#

So really… if someone is already flush with Nikkes by now for all those content, the question is how many squads Overclock will take.. you can basically feed it all of the Nikkes in your roster and lose

#

But if you can beat it with 1 squad, then RIP

#

Maybe there’s an Overclock setting that says: “No machine guns, no snipers, no SMGs”

versed prairie

In which case… You might want shotgun squads Kek_dog
