The pigs die instantly to Kafka's AOE, and sometimes Seele can kill them with a normal attack for some free SP and a free turn.

This would possibly lead to onscreen Peppy and Numby interactions so I’m all for it. Working through my backlog of character development, got Clara up to speed today! Tomorrow I start in on farming a million abundance trace mats so I can level Perfect Timing and swap Luocha to Broken Keel, then also work on his traces a bit more and bring Natasha more up to snuff.

If you guys find the SU event too hard, just keep on grinding and building up the buffs. You'll get it after the few whiles!

True, but I wanted to see if I could smash through it, and I did. Nihility is actually really wacky in this because the random-rear end null squares are really rewarding.

I kind of get slacking on the relic farming, it's a lot less fun than building up more characters. I like to focus on character levels, light cone levels, and traces first, because you always get to see the numbers go up instead of relying on rng. At this point though I've got a nice variety of characters for different enemy weaknesses, so I'm afraid it's time for me to farm more relics. I got 30 stars in MoC last set but I'm stuck at 28 right now because I'm having trouble with MoC 9. The dang pigs are not very helpful to me. Here are my current characters: A team: Luocha, Blade, Bronya, Silver Wolf/Pela (e5) B team option 1: Natasha, Clara, Silver Wolf, Sushang (e6) B team option 2: Fireblazer, Natasha, Pela (e5), Yanqing (I wish I had Gepard!!) Extra Characters: Serval (e6) I really like Serval but she just doesn't fit into my current teams very well. Whenever I use her as the main damage, AoE is of course great but single target takes forever. I need to build Tingyun and/or a Hunt buddy for her, I think.

Serval pairs very well with Sushang ime. Both can serve as a sub dps to the other depending on your needs. One of my favorite pairings is Sushang and Quinque, but it only works against Quantum weakness. Sushang can burst down broken enemies very quickly.

there's like no synergy between sushang and serval i would honestly just try to hyper carry clara with tingyun and march out of those options without knowing anything else about your situation

Also, yeah, building characters is much more fun. And I just got 3 of them, and I've been wanting Pela for a long while. I'll probably finish tracing Kafka and Sampo since they are already around 5 across the board. Then I'll start seriously grinding relics. I'm seriously torn on Fu Xuan. Obviously, I don't need another character to build. My sustain is largely solved thanks to Gepard and Luocha. But Silver Wolf means more options are better, and Quantum sustain means I can just run a trio of small ladies and slot in whatever support I need. Right now, I'm stuck with Ice/Quantum or Imaginary/Quantum if I want to force weakness. I could also build Natasha for Physical/Quantum, but Fu could open me up to Lightning, Wind, and Fire as well.

I only did 1 run because I'm still doing traces, but I guess this is a decent start? It started with every stat. The first went into Attack and the second into Crit.

A decent start lmao buddy that's an pretty awesome gear.

So which one is the tankiest SU path? Abundance? Or like, destruction when <40% hp or dumb shenanigans like that?Walla posted:I only did 1 run because I'm still doing traces, but I guess this is a decent start? It started with every stat. The first went into Attack and the second into Crit. If all your traces are at 8 or so, stop doing traces. Just eyeballing some numbers, seems like going from 8 to 10 is a ~10%, which is not insignificant. But getting to 10 for each character is expensive when you could just use the same stamina to level your relics (in the correct mainstats) from +9 to +15 -- relics that you can pass around from one character to another. Anyway that's a pretty awesome piece. Remember, if you something better later on, you can always feed this one to your new one. You only lose like, what, 15% relic xp? Kanos posted:While it's definitely true that most 4 pieces aren't that amazing and you can frequently get by with 2pc/2pc(or just a complete mishmash of good pieces on supports), the Quantum set bonus is arguably the strongest one in the game, so in this particular instance it's something to really focus on, though. I'd still wear a well-statted cowboy set over a lovely quantum set for Seele or QQ, but that's just a stopgap that means it's time to knuckle down and focus on farming a decent quantum set. Yep, I did call out quantum, thief (because there's only one other slot that can roll break effect on mainstat), and maybe imaginary as sets that are exceptions. Oh, I guess also if you're one of those tryhards/weirdos giving the 4pc wind set to all your supports. It totally makes sense why the game gives musketeer and thief as starter sets. Musketeer is generally good (albeit not optimal) on almost everyone, whereas break effect is awesome when your relics are generally garbage.

^^ Double edit: My favorite thing about Luocha is how he breaks like half the Abundance blessings in half. I call that blessing 'Qingque's good day'.Kyrosiris posted:Is that even worth doing anymore now that Hackerspace exists? I don't know whether CN tryhards have swapped over or if they're still on wind. In any case, not all supports have ults that target allies (e.g., debuffers, Luocha), so then Hackerspace is only a 6% increase to your base speed and no better than 4pc Musketeer. Edit: Also 25% action forward (might?) still be more turns for the support unit. So you're giving up a teamwide speed buff for personal speed. And personal speed is important on SP-positive supports because it generates more SP for the team. So if my reasoning is correct, it's a tradeoff between team speed and team SP. facepalmolive fucked around with this message at 01:35 on Sep 7, 2023 |

Managed difficulty 4 on my first try, but it was very close. The destruction buff that splits damage between the party saved me on some of the single target hits but there's also just so much aoe damage that the entire team almost died a few times. If I hadn't upgraded that buff to take 15% less damage and upgraded the ones to increase max HP, I definitely would have lost. Not even going to try difficulty 5 yet.

facepalmolive posted:So which one is the tankiest SU path? Abundance? Or like, destruction when <40% hp or dumb shenanigans like that? I generally stop traces at 7, though there are occasional exceptions. Serval and Quinque are at 9 because they're E5+, and Sushang is at 10 because she's E6 and my favorite. I just don't use her for everything right now. The characters I'm still tracing are Kafka at 6/6/6 for skill/talent/ult, Luka at 3/5/5/5 because he does use his basic, and Sampo at 4/4/4/4. I also need to do Sampo's A6, but I already did Luka's and Kafka's. I also have some secondary traces for everyone, but I'm not prioritizing the level 75 and 80 traces for anyone just yet. All of my characters are level 70+, and most are on their final ascension. So it's just a few more days of grinding out these last traces and then I can seriously grind the relics. Until I pull another character.  Edit: I also need Tingyun's and Gepard's A6, though the latter is a low priority. Asta, too, but I keep changing between her and Tingyun.
