rio, your Argenti is pretty similar to mine. Mine is in a 4pc Physical, but he's probably going to end up in a 2pc/2pc. I'm doing the same with Clara. The 4 piece set is only good for Luka, and that stopped being true when the DoT set came out. At this point, I'm just going to take him to level 80 and max all his traces except attack. That's my plan for every character I like using. I think I'm done chasing new characters for a while. The relic grind is eternal. Everyone just ends up good enough unless you stop building new characters.

Also, I'm grinding the hell out of Salsotto. But Clara, Topaz, and Ratio all want it. And I might get around to building Herta and Jing Yuan one day.

Clara I could see going for the 2pc followup one but physical definitely seems good for Argenti and Sushang (and physical trailblazer, lol).

4pc physical is really good and it's weird to see people just underestimating 25% atk with no other requirements beyond just attack.

Yeah, I'm wrong.  Clara still wants a 2pc/2pc. 30% damage to all of her follow ups is better than 25% attack. Probably.

I've seen questionable leaks suggesting two Ult focused 4pc sets coming up, one dps one support, so I'm just slapping my best 2pc sets on Argenti for now.

Right now, Clara needs better gear, so I'm still living in the punch domain. Then, Quinque needs an upgrade. Next, Hanya needs her own gear, and Yukong could use an upgrade from the break set. After that, I'm farming the Prisoner domain for Kafka, Topaz, Clara, and Ratio. I also should probably build Sampo finally. He's e4, and I'm starting to actually like using Kafka without Topaz. Also, I just sleep in Sim U World 6 right now. And I'm still tracing Argenti, 4 Harmony characters, Quinque, and Sampo.

You can gear Clara completely off one domain, Grand Duke for 20% FUA and Prisoner for 12% ATK. Dumping resin on Streetwise is a waste because half of your resin is going into Thief drops.

You may be right. I have Clara in a Guard of Wuthering Snow set at the moment. Maybe I'll just start farming the Genius set. As much as Quinque carries me, she deserves better than 80% crit damage.

I don’t know about you but I’m always hungry for relic upgrade mats. So it’s not a waste to pick up some brainless salvage pieces in bulk.

I think it's more efficient than salvaging, even the purples. You can also just gamble for a useful piece through synthesis. And I think I'll keep grinding Physical. 10% damage is better than 12% attack. I'm not in a hurry. Bad Video Games fucked around with this message at 21:17 on Dec 17, 2023 |

Also, what teams are people running Argenti in? I think I've settled on Bronya and Yukong as his best supports, but he works well with Pela and Tingyun. I still don't like him with Hanya, but I do like her with Kafka and Quinque. I might do a critka build. I'm really enjoying using Kafka with Hanya and Tingyun, and they enable her dot damage.

Tingyun/Hanya is his most natural fit IMO, but I like running him with whichever two harmony units fit the situation best. I have a s3 Planetary Rendezvous so I turned Hanya into an Argenti support with the Penacony set to crank that dmg% even further.

Maybe it's my build or speed tuning, but Bronya and Yukong just feel stronger. The 2 let Argenti pump out big fat numbers.

Bad Video Games posted:I think it's more efficient than salvaging, even the purples. It wouldn't make any sense for the purple to give more exp when used directly instead of salvaging them. They're worth 1000 either way (unless they were partially leveled, which gives some percentage of the exp back). Gold relics are worth 1500 exp so I assume they'll give 3 crystal thingies when they can be salvaged into exp.

The gold ones salvage into those mats to synthesize gear pieces. Gives 10, so 10 gold relics -> 1 crafted. If you’re still lacking in relic exp, just feed the gold relics directly. Purple doesn’t matter either way

Can someone give a brief comparison between Ruan Mei and Sparkle? I might try to pull for one of them depending on how lucky my Blade rolls are. I already have Bronya so I’m trying to figure out who would be more useful for my teams.

There's various leaks of her kit floating around, but nothing is official yet. All the leaks seem to agree, but there are no concrete numbers. Her talent boosts damage when a skill causes an attack. So probably not great for Blade, Quinque, or Jingliu. Her skill boosts hp and attack for 1 ally, and advances their turn forward. Her ult restores skill points for the team and gives temporary sp if it would go over the cap. Her leaked kit looks great. I'm still not pulling for her.

bitprophet posted:Wouldn’t this make her good for Jingliu, not bad? Jingliu’s power coming mostly from her enhanced skill and all. Based on the wording, it sounds like it only works when a skill point is used to cause damage. So, like OG Dan Heng would get the bonus, but not new Dan Heng with his enhanced basic attack. Jingliu doesn't consume skill points in her enhanced state, so I'm guessing she wouldn't get the bonus. But the leaks aren't very clear and are being translated from Chinese. Maybe her kit will change in the next 6 weeks. And I'm not pulling for her because I only pull for 5 stars that I like the look of and I think are fun. I don't know anything about Sparkle except her splash art, and her design isn't very appealing to me.

Her traces aren't very special except her A6. One gives her extra energy regen when her talent is activated, and the other extends her skill buff an additional turn. Her last trace generates sp the first time she uses her skill. Her technique gives a skill point for each ally at the start of battle. If that works how it's written, it seems like you would start the battle with 6 or 7 sp.

Ignore the nitty gritty of pre-beta leaks of kits, they're only good for giving you a general idea of what a character is supposed to be doing. Beta kits can often be completely rehauled mid beta too so even then you're not guaranteed until the patch actually comes out and they datamine the final version.

Endorph posted:kafka got basically completely reworked during beta, like originally she was almost more of a buffer for other DoT characters And at one point she couldn't maintain 100% uptime on her own DoT so she had a critical reliance on Serval, leading me to build Serval solely to enable Kafka before getting burned really hard when Kafka got one last rework and Serval went from "borderline mandatory" to "dramatically far behind every other DoT partner and hypercarry Kafka".

So do we know if everyone they showed off at the end of the Special Program is likely to be playable later? Because Sam and Duke Inferno look loving great. Also, surprised nobody else asked this, but, do Rose and Firefly definitely look like (HI3) Kaslanas to anyone else? Like maybe not quite endgame Kiana and Kallen, but certainly as much like them as they look like each other and early game Kiana. It would be nice to see a Kiana who doesn't have to be an important character and a Kallen who is just not involved with any version of Otto in any way. Or to get a Kiana who is an important character again, honestly, she's even ignoring the bit where she had character growth she was always fun. (Actually, have we even seen any alternate Kianas besides GGZ and presumably The Sustainer Of Heavenly Principles? I suppose it would make sense not to because of the clone thing . . .) Also also, I'm maybe halfway through the Late Halloween event, how bad is seven days to clear it? I just haven't been in the mood for side questing.

I pulled Topaz expecting the waiting game for some perfect teammate in the future but I didn’t guess it would be this soon, and I certainly didn’t guess it would be free. Im even more excited for him than Ruan Mei.

I am hoping to get Xueyi but will need to see how my 4 star luck goes (it was good this patch so expecting a dry spell) - I’ll just hold off on phys set farming for now. Supposedly there's 2 new sets coming with 2.0 but they look more made for ratio/ruan mei based on what leaks are out there.

I strongly believe we won't see any major Kiana references in future content if only because she was the main character of their first 3 games and she finally reached her thematic ending in the third. She's their baby and they completed her meta arc so she can rest.
