Tingyun is comically useless in autobattle and just moves her buff around completely randomly.

Yeah, auto-battle's... idiosyncrasies are why I'm mostly fine with my usual of Fireblazer/Nat/Sampo/Serval.

Other than Nat not cleansing debuffs, auto-battle can't really gently caress that up. :v:

You're just not at a high enough level to understand the AI's strategies yet. One day they will begin to make sense, and then you will know that you have attained true mastery.

My Tingyun has higher speed than Seele

AI Tingyun buffs Seele 90% of the time

works out pretty well :shrug:

My Tingyun constantly oscillates her buff between whatever two DPS are in my autobattle team regardless of turn order, remaining skill points, or how many charges the buff has left. It ended up wasting so many skill points on nothing that I just cut her out of my autobattle crew.

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

An uncountable number, to be sure.
Tingyun buffs the highest attack character who doesn't already have her buff. It's pretty straightforward, she's just too dumb to understand why that's a terrible idea.

March 7th doesn't use shields at all until the target is below like 70% HP or so. Seems like she uses the same logic as a healer, which is probably a bad thing.

In general, they all seem to have a "do not use skill if below X SP" logic, but what X is seems to vary. Some of them spam skills when I don't want them to (looking at you Fire MC) while others hardly ever use it when they should (Yanqing...).

wonder when they're gonna have rate-up banners for the 'release characters'

honestly wouldn't mind trying for a E1 pull on my Yanqing or if there was a Clara banner ect.

If we take Genshin as a precedent, then probably never. They did it once ever, very early on, and never again.

The Keqing banner was clearly viewed as a disaster, so I wouldn't say that it's precedent so much as all the more reason not to. The 300 pull standard banner pity is probably the compromise there.

I hope I land either Bronya or Welt before I hit the 300 pity so I don't have to feel bad about picking Welt to complete the Astral Express crew and leaving Seele without her bestie/sister/wife.

Playing around with Prydwen's damage calculator, on a character like Sampo it looks like going from a free-source 4* cone (Fermata) to a 5* gacha cone (In the Name of the World) is like a 12% jump.

On the flip side, comparing Sampo to Welt, with Sampo on In the Name of the World and Welt on a 3-star cone, Welt seems to push about 20% more per skill activation than Sampo, if I add in one tick of Wind Shear but also add in Welt's 3 star cone proc.

So, meh. Seems pretty similar? I tried to compare Nihility to Nihility for a closer comparison.

For simplicity I compared Dan and the Ice hunt guy since it is mostly straightforward damage, and I think generally the 5* character with a 4* cone did slightly better, but it was light cone dependent on which 4* or 5* and it was pretty close. Probably a balance is optimal where you need at least some good light cones, hopefully some events give some out because mine are horrid, I do not have a nihility or preservation > 3*. Might just buy Herta's preservation rather than go with my plan to upgrade the Hunt one to superimposition 5.

Yeah, I got In the Name of the World as my standard banner pity and honestly I feel fine with that? It's an insane Nihility cone and Kafka is going to *adore* it when she comes home.

I have one, it's the one that boosts attack when the enemy is either shocked or wind sheared, and I don't have Sampo.

...Though now that I think about I could just use it on someone in a Serval comp.

For some reason I expected Fight Club to increase in level rather than just having different modifiers. I guess this makes more sense in terms of not turning away players who didn't start on day 1.
