I'm very torn on Boothill vs Topaz e1. I'm literally a 20 pull away with a guarantee, so I have no problem guaranteeing Jade. I'll make some impulsive decision.

Between Aventurine, Luocha, and Gallagher, Fu is pretty much on the bench for me. I'll break her out for mono Quantum, but I don't even use that team too often.

I think Fu Xuan is still my go-to sustain. She's still so good. Still extremely happy with Aventurine though, and there's definitely teams/situations where I'd use Luocha or Gallagher. I kinda wish I had Huohuo, but not enough that I'd roll for her on a rerun, I think.

Aventurine good, Fu Xuan great and battle tested, I'm still working on maxing Aventurine's traces so.... I really should never roll a sustain again because I also have Luocha and Huohuo.

I can already beat MoCs pretty comfortably with Luocha/Gepard/Gallagher, and even Natasha was good enough after I got her E4, and if I want to tryhard my cycle count more likely than not I'd just cut the sustain. So at this point I think it would take some really synergistic utility with my existing teams for me to pull a limited sustain, like if there's a sustain that also inflicts DoT or something.

Luocha's lc is actually really loving good if you're starved for speed like me. Gallagher has enough break effect and outgoing healing that he can use it, and he is good for Boothill if I choose him. Even at level 72 with a level 66 signature, Aventurine is just a skill point generator who keeps everyone alive indefinitely. Fu is great, but mine doesn't solve any of my problems, which all revolve around speed and damage. Maybe eidolons or her signature can help with that, but I'd rather pull a new character or make Topaz better. Sustain is solved unless a better DoT sustain than Huo Huo comes along.

Jade is very cool, and she is much more helpful to me than Firelfy. I already have Himeko and Topaz so Firefly is a tolerable skip for me. I've gotten into the habit of getting the signature cones for my 5* characters, and that might mean I need to skip Robin's cone in favor of Jade's. If I get lucky I might be able to grab all of them, which is fun to think about I guess. I think they've done a great job recently, Boothill and Robin being a "sleepy" patch is pretty great, all of the recent characters have been very fun and cool and it's hard to skip them. Also fingers crossed that Jade ends up as charming and well written as the other two Stonehearts. I changed my mind about Aventurine and Topaz after they got some story content and it might be fun to collect all the characters of one faction.

Currently the E1 implant doesn't say it reduces RES. She also has an implant that does reduce RES on her technique, but it only lasts a couple of turns and wouldn't work against the second wave.

I don't think SW is very meta defining at all. Her usage rate has gone down as more dps options in other elements have been released. She'll jump up when they add the Boss mode simply because she has very good single target debuffs outside of Weakness implant.Bad Video Games posted:I'm very torn on Boothill vs Topaz e1.

Do you want a new experience or do you want number go up. 50% cdmg to FUA is a lot but in the end it's just bigger number.

My entire account is basically dedicated to making as sick a follow-up attack team as I possibly can, but I can manage to hold off on Robin even with her fitting the theme because I have basically every good support that's been released so far. Jade, though--- Jade, I absolutely need to get if she ends up being as good as her leaked kit implies. Which will be rough because I've blown every single pull asset I have on the current banner to get both Aventurine and Jingliu. (I also have Blade and Luocha, an E6 Pela who is her best friend, and nobody as reasonable ice damage beyond her and Herta, so she fits my roster and fills a huge need) JT Jag fucked around with this message at 20:09 on Apr 24, 2024 |

If you skip all of 2.2 then Jade will be in the back half of 2.3 for you. That's like 11 weeks of saving starting now.

Silver Wolf should be amazing in the boss mode, especially if they can figure out some kind of workaround for the problem of having to reset all of your debuffs every time you deplete a boss HP bar.

I have a hot take: Dr. Ratio's follow up attack can happen even after phase transition, so if Seele activates her Resurgence killing the last enemy in a wave, she should get an extra turn to start the next phase Buff Seele

Eej posted:That's a feature though. It's so each phase starts clean. I'm perfectly aware that it's a feature, I just think it's a stupid feature that is needlessly harsh towards specific character types. Buffs and form changes and such don't get wiped during phase transitions, so it seems unnecessarily punitive that debuffs do.

It's cause debuffs are substantially stronger than buffs. That's why people stack SW + Pela for like 110% def down.

Not having Ruan Mei means I have to work harder for any break focused character. Guaranteeing Boothill and Jade is trivial, but it's a little less assured if I go for the signature.

It's very very very difficult but not technically impossible to hit his 300% BE breakpoint without his cone. But there are no BE Hunt cones aside from his.

# ? Apr 24, 2024 22:00 |

I'll probably try a few pulls for Robin, skip Boothill, skip Firefly, and wait to see if Ruan Mei gets a rerun in 2.3 or 2.4 before pulling for Jade. I'm more interested in which 4*s and which reruns will run alongside them; if anyone has Xueyi I'll throw some extra tickets at them.

his cone is extremely, extremely unnecessary, he works great with a lot of the f2p hunt lightcones. 300% break effect isnt a 'breakpoint,' its the cap.
|
# ? Apr 24, 2024 22:09 |
|
It's not a cap at all. You can go past 300% if you want and he'll keep doing more and more damage. He just doesn't get crit/cdmg anymore which only affects 10-20% of his total overall damage anyway (depending on the size of enemy toughness bar).

# ? Apr 24, 2024 22:10 |

Maybe I'll just grab Topaz's signature and Boothill and just get Jade. Sounds simple.

# ? Apr 24, 2024 22:15 |

also hitting 300% is pretty easy even without his lightcone and ruan mei. traces: 37% thief of shooting meteor: 32% talia: 36% break effect rope: 65% you are already halfway there e4 harmony trailblazer: quote:Dove in Tophat if you get trailblazer to just 100% break effect (memories of the past is a 4* harmony lightcone that increases break effect so this is easy) this is 45%. you're already at 215%. getting 85% through substats isnt that hard if it's the only thing you're checking for. ofc if you have a lot of break effect thief pieces you've junked in the past, uh, rip.

The 30% was moved to his Ult, and lasts 3 turns. On a character that Ults....fairly easily.
