I got quite a few new pieces because a lot of my gear was bad. According to my achievement list I have now done caverns 40 times, and 21 of those would have been from this event. I had a lot of purples still in use. Now I'm down to 4 purples across my built characters, and 3 of those are planar ornaments. My upcoming Clara and Sushang still need upgrades, but they just need work generally.

i dont think anything currently has more than 20% resist against QUA so that team will probably do pretty well. even if they add a new elite/boss with 40%+ you can match them up against the other side instead.

Are there any cases where flat HP, ATK, DEF is good on gear? I'm just assuming I just salvage any gear with 2+ of them

DontMindMe posted:Are there any cases where flat HP, ATK, DEF is good on gear? They're better than random completely useless stats (like break effect on a healer, for example). I definitely wouldn't auto-trash because of them. It's extremely, extremely rare to get three actual desired stats as substats on the same piece of gear, so two being less good is not instant trash. From a more mechanical perspective, I believe that flat stats actually get added to the character's base stats before multipliers. So, if for example your ATK% is already extremely high, it's conceivable that flat attack might do more for you than more ATK%. Zurai fucked around with this message at 00:05 on Aug 26, 2023 |

I will auto-trash anything with two flat non-speed stats though, unless it's literally my only option

Flat stats are after multipliers so they only really make sense at low base numbers. 2 Flat is generally bad but 1 Flat is could be alright. Speed being the exception obviously but that i smore about the small base number for that again..

Futaba Anzu posted:i mostly said that since i feel people have been saying the opposite of original post being that the team would be 'the one team to rule them all' because it's not like the combination of seele/qq, silverwolf, lynx, fu xuan is necessarily that coherent with each other. it''ll still be a strong team of course off of the mono type and the fact that you'd be fielding 2-3 strong 5 stars though If Fu Xuan requires Lynx to work then she's useless imo.

Her original kit needed a healer alongside her, since they removed all damage from her kit she works entirely solo.

So, if for example your ATK% is already extremely high, it's conceivable that flat attack might do more for you than more ATK%. So if you had a total of +100 flat damage from a handful of different substats, and your skill/attack/whatever is about to deal 10,000 damage, it will deal 10,100 instead.

The lightning relic thing is making me into a conspiracy theorist believing either: would it make you feel better or worse knowing you're right but that you on average seem to have gotten a pretty rare result? main and substats actually do have variable rates based on user gathered data, and weirdly it turns out that outgoing healing may be one of the least common main stats which you got a good handful of lol on a person to person level it's all subject to bad or good patches of true rng. conversely, i got like 5 crit lightning chest pieces before i even got a single attack chest for kafka e: a fun thought experiment that is surely not toxic and debilitating as gently caress to think about if you wanted to maintain conspiracy theories is thinking maybe that every account's rng is personalized according to cosmic luck and/or another set of algorhythm rng that dictates whether your account is fated to be good rng or not Futaba Anzu fucked around with this message at 03:54 on Aug 26, 2023 |

I now need to go through all of my relics and finish narrowing my teams. I'm constantly messing with my teams. Welt, Asta and Luocha are the only ones who haven't moved. I guess technically Dan Heng as well. I have so many Imaginary pieces and only 1 Welt, it's going to take a while to narrow everything down.

Gotta say, I enjoyed the game a lot more when I was unreasonably lucky. FTP here, but between pulling these two and losing 50/50 on the SW banner I'm up to E2 with Bailu. Got two Nats in two pulls just before this too, taking me up to Nat E...10. Sitting at 70 pity with no guarantee in prep for Fu Xuan, but at this rate I'll probably lose the 50/50 and pull Bailu E3 and Lynx E6 on the way back up. Not mad, my pulls have been great on the whole. Just crazy how much the game seems to want me to have healers.

My standard banner luck has been pretty bad, you have 3 more 5* and 4 more 4* with 7 more pulls than I have and I am not close to pity. At least my character banner has been pretty lucky, I guess that is more important. Also, what setup is better for JY: 2292 atk, 128 spd, 45% crit rate, 140.8% crit damage 4* lightning set but missing the 15% damage from the salsotto set (I guess I could switch to the Space Sealing Station set if I have anything good sitting around?) 2529 atk, 133 spd, 65% crit rate, 85.1% crit damage 2* lightning 2* Wild Wheat Most of my relics are at 12, so I guess I can see if I get lucky and get another few hits of crit rate for the lightning set, but I do not think the odds are in my favor to reach 50%.

The standard banner pulls were honestly really helpful near the start of the game (especially when Welt was the only Imaginary character), but as the lifespan of the game goes on pretty much every player will pick up most of the standard banner 5-stars I guess? Character banner luck is probably better in the long run, so I think you're set up well. Re: JY, how far away are you from 50%? Would JY's A6 trace push you over after using his Skill?

With just feels to go by and no math, switching to the lightning set feels like it upped his DPS quite a bit.

Finally doing an elation run with Clara, Blade, March. Blade next to clara, gets hit by some aoe damage while Clara has march's shield leading to a blade counter, svarog counter, and march counter in rapid succession is really fun.

Regardless of personally finding it an "issue", why does the years-old game with significantly more involved gameplay have such an unfriendly stamina mechanic? 20hr stamina cycle with the ability to bank ~one day's worth at a time assuming you've blown time stockpiling the materials that let you. I login once at night so I'm not even hitting this from the angle of minmax frustration, everyone should be seeing that their stagnant system just sucks and should be moving closer to HSR's.

Stamina systems in these sorts of games rarely change unless there is a perceived need for it. Likely HSR is changing theirs because once you clean out your quest log and hit your weekly caps, stamina capped content is literally all you have.

Yea in Genshin, after you use your stamina…there’s like entire continents to still farm things that actually matter. You can attempt to farm things in Star Rail off mobs, but it’s all junk for crafting consumables. In genshin you can world farm artifact mats and “trace” mats for free which can take 2~ hours a day if you really wanna go for it

UHD posted:Stamina systems in these sorts of games rarely change unless there is a perceived need for it. I see the crystalfly trap as another resin tweak, though it still has limitations like the initial cap/condensed changes. The fact that it gives you fully-idle ability to save 600 resin a week is fine though. Genshin content can be exhausted as well, so I don't think it'd be the only or largest reason. For whatever reason, Genshin team doesn't want to just expand to a 24hr cap. GateOfD posted:Yea in Genshin, after you use your stamina…there’s like entire continents to still farm things that actually matter. Genshin overworld farming is no different from farming maps and SU in HSR. You get a trickle of exp and money/mats, but you will always need to spend TP for significant upgrades. Both games also have hidden caps on some of this farming anyway.

Though you can mitigate that by being careful which light cone you give Gepard (a few of them give him extra aggro).
