At least you can use the base trace material to synthesize the higher level ones. It's not great but it can cut the grind a little eventually.

Why do you need both Gepard and a healer, more spd and atk.

Also, your Tingyun isn't even capping her atk boost, all the more reason to bring Asta too.

Edit: I don't know her trace levels so maybe she is, sorry.

I'm using Tingyun on a team with Dan Heng, but I will happily replace her with Asta if I get Pela. Welt's on that team and with Asta's ult things get funny for the enemy.

The drop rates for this last stage of trace material farming sure are garbage, aren't they?

It seems like you get the equivalent of around ~3 highest tier items per 60 fuel, which isn't *that* bad, but it's still definotely a longer-term thing. A day's worth of fuel could get you a couple nodes.

I've been using Swordplay III from 71-80 after Cruising V for like 30-70 and it's hard to say which is better. Yeah her LC probably helps a ton, I know JY's is nuts

this is what i settled on too. the diminishing returns from the materials spent make 6 a good stopping point.

It's 1 day of farming to get one of your traces from 8 to 9, and about a day and a half to get to rank 10. Generally focus on the Ascension Traces, then the small traces, then the ability traces. In terms of total investment, it takes about 12.25 days to take someone from 8 to 10 at TB60 and up, with ~1/8 of a day reduction each time you get lucky and roll a purple trace item.

For most Hunt folks Swordplay is honestly better. It's a tougher call for Seele since you'd be resetting Swordplay every time you swat an add to trigger resurgence.

I pulled Sleep like the Dead on the standard banner and have been quite happy with it, though. Big crit numbers.

I don't like any Destruction characters except the MC. I might even go back to Slugger Blazer just because he does have a lot of good poo poo in his kit.

Decided, gently caress it, I'll do 1 ten pull for Silver Wolf, got the 5 star animation... it was her light cone, because I selected the wrong god drat warp again.

Then I did a ten pull on the actual warp, and got her, I'm so lucky in spite of my stupidity.

How do you even get to the lightcone banner by accident, doesn't it start selecting the character banner when you open the menu?

I clicked the normal banner to check my normal ticket count then mistakenly clicked on the light cone banner to get SW

I made a series of bad investments. Tarantula farm. The bottom fell out of the market.

I would want Clara if there was a way to swap the Clara and Svarog skins. But not the models. I want a scared baby Svarog protected by a teleporting, seven foot tall Clara

Same if you don't count TB. I only have Clara and SW. I got 2 5* gacha LCs at least? Sadly they're the ones that aren't great on characters who aren't their signature.

Ditto, only Gepard (newbie banner pity) and Silver Wolf here, plus a 5* cone from normal banner.

Admittedly I have been incredibly stingy with my gold tickets so I'm not surprised by that.

I would say my 5 star luck has been pretty good but I don't save jade or tickets so I've easily hit the soft pity at least 4 times plus the beginner banner. I have 4 5* characters, an eidolon and a best in slot lc so a little bit of good luck.

Ignoring fire trailblazer my luck has also been pretty good ! I’ve got 6 (Seele, SW, Bronya, himeko, gepard & bailu) along with Clara’s 5* LC.

With himeko & bailu at E1.

Of course I went for both Seele & SW’s banners, and also have the daily pass or whatever.

Xalidur

I have Bronya, Seele, Jing Yuan E1, Bailu, plus the Bailu and Himeko light cones, and I'll probably hit guaranteed pity on Silver Wolf before her banner cycles. Only bought whatever the Welkin equivalent is called and BP. I had a lot of crying to do about my RNG in Genshin at first and in FGO lately, but I can't complain about Star Rail. Star Rail loves me.
