I'm guessing Tingyun wants to stack attack as much as possible because of the way it limits her Skill's buff? Does she want energy regen on the one relic slot that can roll that? It seems like it should be possible/desirable to keep high uptime on her Ultimate's buff.

Stacking speed on her is really good, charges her ult faster and her basic attack is surprisingly potent (+40% damage from traces, plus additional damage based on the hypercarry you're buffing with her) and helps rebuild SP for your main attacker to use.

Just how many mistakes have you suffered on the way here?

An uncountable number, to be sure.
Re: SU Paths, I feel like people overestimate how much you need a team that synergizes with them to make them useful. I've beaten 4-2 with every single path using the exact same team. Elation woth no follow-ups? Get the one that buffs your ults. Nihility with no dots? Not even slightly a problem, it brings its own dots. Abundance with no healer? That's what the resonance is for. Like, some will be better or worse, but none of the paths are "don't even bother unless you have character X."

I mean that's fine, I just take umbrage with the prydwen guide presenting no other options because "the winning move is to not play" and leaving it at that

My minor gripe about this site is how every time a skill that revives a character is brought up, they're just like "you're loving up if someone is dying." Sometimes you're attempting content that is harder than your characters are prepared for, and Bailu's revive has definitely saved me in such situations.

SU6 is designed to be beatable at 50 and easier at 60. 70 would definitely be overkill, and SU6-2 would probably unlock by then anyway?

While this is true, I feel like it's less about levels than it is artifacts. As soon as characters started getting access to 4* (and up) artifacts, the difference from that basically dwarfs anything else (and if you don't deliberately farm for them at all, your characters are all going to just be using a mishmash of artifacts from those two sets you get from chests).

While I agree the baseball bat rules, I don't mind the lance myself, and would rather the different paths have diff weapons than just a rainbow bat situation, personally.

Bow and arrow seems like the most obvious option, given the Aeon in question literally wields that weapon.

A different weapon for each path means a different animation for each path. I'm good with that. Hoping the path we get from !china is abundance, both because that would be hilarious from a storyline standpoint and because a second healer would be neat.

While Serval and Jing are different, are they different enough that Jing will let you clear content that you couldn't with Serval? That's the most important question I think, when deciding to roll on someone for gameplay reasons. Right now it looks like you can Make Do with Serval, which makes me want to skip him. But maybe my opinion is colored by my preference for Serval's aesthetics and animations

I mean, you can probably clear all content with people you have access to now. It really comes down to whether you think you'll be able to do so in a way that is significantly more enjoyable with a new character.

Eimi posted:

The current weapon might count as "the spear one" since it's a lance.

I imagine we'll get the various prominent weapon types. I'll be surprised if it's not a bow for The Hunt, though.

Burying all the trauma from past nights
Burying my anger in the past

Just wondering thoughts:

Stuck at Su3 and had to laugh when gephard came back for third time (I died so I don't know if he comes again and died with Bronya(60),Tingyun(50),Nat (50) and Serval (60). I've basically tried to do damage through serval only with bronya,nat and tingyun just supporting her unless they help break. I'm wondering if I need another person that can do as much damage or whether I should try to level tingyun and nat up and try again. Ir whether picking mainly the Hunt path was my downfall.


For an actual silly question, how are you killing those trotters, I'm not able to do enough damage before they run away.

If you're stacked and overlevelled then focus down the middle one since it flees fastest, then clean up the outsides. If you're not then just let it go and focus on the outside ones you can weakness break. (Perhaps even just focusing on one of them if you're kind of underlevelled).

SU3 should be a bit of a cakewalk at level 60 though unless you've like, got the wrong relics equipped or something

I get two trotters regularly but I have Seele and Bronya, so yeah. Not sure if 3 is even possible, but I guess with good enough relics, probably?

I've done 3 trotters when I had double hunt resonance with refresh to 50% energy on kill. Was able to get 2 trotters low, then blew a bunch of hunt resonance to kill them all.

My only 5* being Clara is a pain because she's useless against trotters. They don't attack so she can't counter anything!

Regarding trotters, wouldn't having Bronya on the team help, since she can call up your strongest character quickly to attack?

Never got gotten 3, just requires killing the middle one first and having a strong Seele. If you have anything that adds Energy Regen / Advance Forward it helps, it is just basically getting Seele as many turns as possible. My Relics are eh, still using purple
