Is Herta still worth it? I'm at 30 pity rn
>>421990 Saber and Phainon seem to have a lot of attacks that bounce or prefer having two or just one enemy on the field so we're going to see a single target meta in the future. If you're struggling with pure fiction or you just want to forget that endgame entirely on pull for her she's worth it and she's easy to build for a f2p account. But remember to go with whoever you like, all you need is two strong teams that can carry you for 80% of the game considering bosses with certain advantages are always there.

>>422012 gonna build some more pity on her banner then if no spook then phainon it is
>want Hyacine for buffed Jingliu >want Cipher for Acheron Fuck, I still can't decide. Maybe I should just empty my stash since I'll be skipping Phainon and Saber anyway.
>>422082 Save for E2 SW
>>422088 I do have SW and her E1 that I got early. Hoping that they'll eventually add her to the shop since I didn't use my token last patch.
Btw guys, I've recently got navia in the other game and she made me realize how hsr devs were smart enough to hide the crit rng masterfully, instead of attacks being a one hit they are divided into smaller ones with each one of them carrying its own crit chance so bad crit ratio builds can still seem to be functional. For example my navia right now has 73/175 without her sig and it feels like I'm not criting most of the time While my Acheron for example has 65/192 in battle but I don't feel the lack of crit rate because of how DMG is counted. This is honestly a pretty creative way to handle rng.
>>422109 there are characters that have their damage spread across a lot of attacks in other game, but yeah non crits are painful

>>421990 if you have problems in pure fiction she is well worth it but moc will probably shift away from 5 target cleave now
What are your hope/wishes, personality & design wise, for March 8th and her memopsrite?
>>422151 I want her to literaly throw pompom at the ennemies
can't believe i'm saying this but i miss banjo lowfoo
>>422151 I want her to be evil, ruthless and sadistic yet keep her genkiness. She can deploy a black tainted ice hell as territory where her enemies continously lose health each turn, filling up a freeze meter. Her skill and ults fill up that freeze meter, once it's full, enemies actually freeze and take increased damage just as in SU Fuli's ult does. Her memosprite is a moth pupa, once March froze at least 3 enemies it becomes an evil mothra. When evil mothra takes turns it cleanses enemy buffs while dishing out massive ice damage and instantly freezing mobs.
>>422151 i want her to be cute and confident

I feel like these things have been rigged since the Amphoreus update...
>>422603 lygos rigged them to be shit when you use herta in your team i heard
(679.85 KB 7680x4320 841341.png)

If you guys were interested in Phainon I think you should know the following: 1/ his ult state at e0s1 takes 157 av to ends. uve probably heard complaints regarding this a million times over already, so i need not elaborate further. its very bad and gets even worse without sig. instead of making the player wait til the countdown end, i think his ult should end as soon as u finish his final extra turn in ult 2/ stats balancing problems. due to how his ult works, he needs hypercarry supports to charge him up quickly, and since all the currently available and good supports for phainon all provide the same stat buffs as his own self buff (the bajillion atk%, CRIT and DMG%), his dmg output doesnt get increased as much compared to using someone like tribbie or debuffers - supports that provides rare damage amp stats 3/ skill points issue. like this holy motherfucking of an SP blackhole. His team consumes SO MANY SP just to quickly charge him up that without multiple sources of extra SP, the team will just fall apart after he ends his first ult. theres a reason why i have to use 2 sunday sigs + a passenger set in the clear. the sp economy is really bad 4/ high total damage multipliers, but get significantly punished in aoe because of one thing: his high damage abilities are all bounce attack type or something similar His enhanced skill that does up to 1170% atk as damage? well its split into multiple bounce attacks that deal 45% atk each for each bounce so in aoe the damage plummets hard. the 450% atk nuke at the end of his enhanced skill? that 450 get divided evenly between the number of enemies, so in aoe its damage is also significantly reduced. His finishing ult attack as well as counter attack has the same problem as enhanced skill. all in all, i think everyone know how shit bounce attacks can be in this game, its already happened before. 5/ stacks generation. im personally okay with how they handle the ult charges, its thematic that he has 12 charges representing 12 coreflames, but regarding his enhanced skill charges, i think they need to do something about it. he has 7 total extra turns in ult, disregarding the first free enhanced skill, it still takes him 2 turns out of the remaining 6 turns doing enhanced basics just to charge his next big nuke. the counter attack can charge faster but is dependent on enemies. if the enhanced basic and/or counter attack actually deals enough to compensate for the downtime between his enhanced skill, then itd be fine. But right now they dont do enough, so phainon's dmg is extremely backloaded, and backloaded dmg in turn based game feels very shit.

>>422622 >sp blackhole at E0 >Falls apart if he cant clear in 1 ult cycle >extremely overpowered e2 wait i minute i have seen this movie before in all honesty i think they try to balance him only to be overpowered in moc and give him a very strong turbolence for his shill moc because afterwards he will probably need cerydra to perform on an comfy level
>>422647 Time is truly a flat circle, can't wait for fexiao and hoolay 2.0 in 3.5
>>422660 well atleast he doesnt have to break the thoughness bars that are getting bigger with every patch to do dmg and can use almost all supports and is not restricted to the small break support pool. But i think his biggest upside is protecting his team during his ultimate wich makes sustainless very easy the problem is when mihoyo expects people to run him sustainless
>>422622 really sad if it's true and I hope it's just a marketing stunt where they gonna pretend they listen to people by buffing him up. I really like his animations and I'd hate them to be a dud

what now
>>422740 >he redeemed 3 times
>>422622 I didn't read his kit at all, I had no idea he has bounce attacks. lmao Honestly from the little showcases I've watched I feel like they should nerf his survivability to an extend and buff his DPAV in some manner, just going be feeling cause I have no idea what his eidolons actually do. Though it might be a bit hypocritical coming from me since a Rice team with Hyacine is also virtually unkillable with the mechanics currently in the game...
>>422747 I'm a betting man
>>422622 Told y'all there has to be a catch to him. It doesn't look as dire as Fraudfly in terms of teammates, but by 4.0 he WILL need E2S1 to have enough actions in ult and Cerydra and/or Sunday to have enough skill points out of ult. Thank fucking God Saber seems to be spared from the usual Brickstruction design, her eidolons are mostly just "more damage", outside of 10 energy per turn at E1 and a ton of energy every 4 ults at E6
>>422802 Yeah, the current beta MOC blessing is outrageously shilling for him and skill spammers including archer unfortunately but nonetheless, he has it worse than fire fly after your first burst ends, fire fly teammates can do something while they have super break and they aren't sp hungry as Phainon's, if you're not getting his sig and probably his E1 too, sparkle might actually be a fixed support in your teams. From what I've seen in other socials people are mostly angry because of his animations creep which makes other units mostly Castroice to look tame so they assume BIG EDGY BOY IS THE STRONGEST CHARACTER RIGHT NOW. For me personally, I'm conflicted, I love my characters to be simple but rewarding when you know what to do unfortunately, Phainon is the former but you can't really get more of him without swiping.
>>422873 really the worst fate of them all having to use sparkle
Forgot to mention, sunday's light con became the best harmony LC right after DDD because of everyone in 3.4.
Rejoice Sunday pullers.
>>422907 Speaking of Sunday's cone >still not a single Redman showcase using Sunday in place of Sparkle, let alone any non-limited support
>>422938 >nearly no showcases of saber without sunday >0 showcases that show if cipher maybe is good with the fate collab units yeah showcases are really lacking right now
Cipher JP voice is pure sex
>Always wanted to make a mono Quantum team >Archer is free, Sparkle rerun right afterwards, have Fu Xuan from a lost 50/50 >Would have to pull Cipher, I do like her but I'm 0 pity and under 1000 jades Is this team a meme or would it work?
>>423144 isnt redman wind?
>>423159 No he's Quantum. Silver Wolf might be a good support after buffs so ideally the team would be Archer/SW/Sparkle then Sustain or a new support.
(800.30 KB 909x1200 67543434433.jpg)

>>422972 i agree
>>423144 Sparkle is Redman's best teammate, Fu wouldn't be bad outside of not generating as much SP as Sigga or Gallagher, the third slot can be any of the quantum sub-DPS with buffed SW being the best option according to HoS
>>423174 >>423203 I'd rather pull SW because that gives me a lot more breathing room to recoup jades, but isn't she more SP hungry than Cipher?
>>422151 I just hope they don't make her some kind of joke character and treat her seriously, she deserves it.
>>423295 Yeah but Sparkle solves SP issues

>>423660 wait do we just ignore acheron's stupid 2 extra nihility requirement and just go full on tribbie+hyacine to buff her? E2 SW still seems a pretty big investment but that seems more valuable than E2 acheron at the moment.
>>423721 Or run Cipher and Hyacine and don't miss out on the trace buff. Don't even need Cipher's sig with E2 SW (although that is already solved with the new BP LC)
>>423721 With enough buffs from your harmony Robin/tribbie, Acheron can do without a second nihility, in pf I use Robin sometimes with her, but in my case I started playing during silver wolf banner, I wasn't even planning to stick around so I just kept throwing my pulls at her banner hoping I lose and get either welt or hemiko, I got the first one early and the other two were from single pulls during belobog story because I needed serval eidelons considering early game really wants you to have aoe attacks. I think I got her to E2 around 45 pulls.

>>423764 tell me what you're running with and which buffs are you going for? Last X6 run i did with my team took literally an hour to finish as we slowly plink away against the bosses or that stage where they want you to farm for 450 coins.
>>423721 I was running E1 Acheron with Pela and Welt before Tribbie dropped, needless to say the party became functional once I dropped the jobber. You do not need the second Nihility at all if the Harmony you are swapping them with is better in every way.
>>423784 metaslave team castorice haycine tribbie rmc everyone e0 blessings actually dont matter i even did a run with anaxa phainon hyacine boon but mydei castorice blessing are bis also only focus on remeberance propagation and destruction blessings with some hunt and eurudition since those have great equations
>>423798 ok, i'll try that and hope it does more dmg so it doesnt take an hour for a single run.
>>423784 With Rice+Hyacine? Brain in a vat for more dragons (and that one 3-star equation that lets you ult 4 times in a row), blazar blessings, propagation blessings for butterfly soul (works on her ESkill but more importantly on the bounce), forced jump (for more breaths), anything with speed (for Hyacine), healing blessings and remembrance blessings are all good. Reroll for Cas/March boons.
>>423810 i didnt say it doesnt take an hour lol
>>423829 fml, I saw some videos in SU/DU where they did a shit ton of damage and was much faster, but I assume maybe they got one of those 16 pure path buffs.
>>423846 A lot of that is curio RNG desu, you can get some disgusting numbers if you're lucky and can get some of the 3-star ones rolling early in the run >>423850 HOLY CUTE!!!!!!
>want sunday since it means i can use dragon dan and give my e1 aglaea something isnt just coping with RMC >cant get his cone but so i'll either have to cope with bronya cone (if i ever manage to get it) or keep him glued to aggy because she doesnt use SP >kinda considering tribbie for general stuff and it means i can use seele plus whatever else but wont be able to get e1 fuck
>>423887 You know what to do.
>>423887 Remember Star Rail wants to sell you teams so try to focus on a team or two instead of rolling bits and pieces because it's better to have 1-2 very strong teams than 4 half-assed mediocre teams.

>>423899 good point... i'll just get sunday since i already have e1 aggy, e1s1 robin + F*f* then
>>423899 i realised that the hard way with aglaea i only rolled for her design but she is so weak for my account since i dont have sunday was thinking i could cope with bronya since i have huohuo and robin lmao
>>423932 >huohuo My biggest skipping regret, god damn it Tail, I apologize for skipping you, please go to the shop I need you.
>>423941 mine is sunday skipping a harmony is probably the most retarded thing you can do in this game but at this point i am to stubbhorn to roll him even tho every team needs him
>>423952 Eh, it's not a huge loss if you have everyone else (Tribbie especially). You can still full star endgame modes all the same.
>>423952 My trust in harmony and Hunt characters were shuttered because of selee and sparkle but I got vindicated over the latter. My only sustains are Gallagher and Aventurine so I'm kinda struggling with the healers shilling lately. Also every future character I'm interested in will love to have the energy and atk buff from huohuo. Sunday's rumored to get a rerun, may you be lucky to get him and whoever else you want.
>>423952 i have a benched sparkle that haven't seen any gameplay since I got firefly. And by getting E2 firefly I was forced to save through robin and sunday. Now I'm just coping with myself and hoping the new dps that I want don't need one or both of them. Unfortunate for me, Saber seems to want the pigeon twins.
>>423932 Yeah, I learned it the hard way too. I rolled a bunch of random meta characters in penacony without taking into account team synergy and now my only truly complete team is my castorice team while everything else is copium. At least I've been actively fixing my account and teams now in Amphoreus but yeah, it's really important to have in mind what teams you want to make and ROLL THEIR SUPPORTS. >>423952 I refuse to roll for Menday and Castorice doesn't need him so I've been pretty happy about that. I'll just wait for the next team that doesn't use Sunday and rock that.3 Alternatively, I guess I could force Castorice to go back to Luocha/Gallagher and force Hyacine DPS if I get really desperate and don't have anyone else I like or want for 2nd side.
>>423974 Sunday is borderline necessary but you can cope with tingyun or tribbie if you have huohuo.
>>423932 Aglaea is just a special case, idk why they designed her like that, even in trials that are usually supposed to show you teams at full power and make you want to roll she feels awkward to keep in ult state even with Sunday. She's not the only character who's borderline disfunctional without a specific support but she feels like the most severe offender
>>423981 yeah i have huohuo + tribbie for her, not really sure whats the last member, but it could be my other benched SW. I would love to see both SW and sparkle gets pulled out of their retirement homes. Even though they're both at E0 at the moment.
>>423981 i have seen a saber e0s1 0 cycle clear with bronya tribbie he doesnt seem that mandatory for her
>>423952 Fuck Sunday, I'm gonna make Saber work without him one way or another
>>423995 I shouldn't have said borderline necessary but more of a great if you have him considering he does more than one thing. Realistically speaking you can go full sustainless with Saber, tingyun, tribbie and RMC and you can get better results others you can use bronya or whoever you like considering Saber is really straightforward and simple so you can't go wrong with her.
>>423978 Not planning to get dps nano?
>>424018 I want to see her model first and her supports. If she's a sunday slave or is designed in a way that she needs dan in her team then maybe not.
>>423982 they probably really were going to have him work for all DPS remembrance but realize no one wanted that and probably changed their minds. thats quite literally the only way you can reason this that or the fact they notoriously like to fuck over phase 2 characters in general plus herta being popular and phase
>>423784 Is this still doable if I don't have Tribbie? I have S1 Rice and E0 Hyacine. Her relics are kinda shit but they're maxxed with the right main stat at least.
>phainon team uses sunday, sparkle and yukong at least the hsrdevs are trying to reverse powercreep, better late than never.
>>424147 The powercreep thing is just dumb content creators being stupid honestly. Between the gacha update to choose who you lose your pity to, the new shop where you can exchange for limited five-star characters and now old chara buffs, I feel like Star Rail is in the best position right now out of the three hoyo games.
>>424147 >Yukong Does she actually get some use or is it something super niche that nobody in their right mind would use
>>424163 Yukong has crazy buffs but they only last 1 turn. Coincidentally, Phainon freezes all buffs when he turns into Lucilius from granblue fantasy so she could actually see some use and be a viable budget alternative.
>>424162 i was also kinda dooming regarding powercreep but that was when acheron released, since her there werent any crazy dmg jumps exspecially in 3.x
>>424147 >Phainon can use Yukong >Saber can use Ting >Redman can use Hanya Now if only showcase fags bothered testing any of that instead of showing the class Seiba works with HSR and Redman with Sparkle again
>>424193 >Now if only showcase fags bothered testing any of that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-GUF4LXNp0
What are the possible f2p light cons for the upcoming 3.4 characters? And which one of them gain the most from their sig?
>>424162 >dumb content creators being stupid And greedy. Jokes aside, I agree the doomposting about powercreep is overblown, the 50/50 changes and retirement shop were great additions and the buffs aside from JL are looking solid. >I feel like Star Rail is in the best position right now out of the three hoyo games. I'd argue ZZZ still has it beat with how endgame is balanced currently, where you don't need any specific teammates or sigs to clear to the point where people are beating stuff with solo A-ranks (4*) and optimisation autism/whale dick measuring is done through the AS equivalent showing the percentile your score falls into. Building disc loadouts is also by far better than relic mines.
>>424219 >What are the possible f2p light cons for the upcoming 3.4 characters? Redman should work with Cruising, the new BP cone, any limited 5* cone you may have should work too. Seiba should work will Fall of an Aeon, the new BP cone, probably Aeon will be the best option because most others are bad, related to HP manip or otherwise cockblocked to gimmicks. Same goes for Phainon I guess but he really wants his sig because it raises base speed and he needs it in ult state. But if you do roll his sig looks like Saber, or any other Destruction without gimmicks, can use it too.
>>424252 >I'd argue ZZZ still has it beat with how endgame is balanced currently, I don't like ZZZ, personally. I feel like it suffers from the same disease as Wuthering Waves where the characters I want to play are either just straight up bad or supports with every must have character being an adult female or adult male. I feel like HSR has a lot more character variety where there's a viable team for whatever you like. Acheron or Aglaea for those who like them adult, Firefly or Castorice for those who like them younger and characters like Hyacine, Tribbie or Yunli for those who like loli. The downside to HSR is that HSR wants to sell you teams instead of one size fits all supports so you have to roll for a characters full team instead of picking up bits and pieces from various teams and end up with incomplete teams all around. For Relics, I feel like they got a ton better after the relic QoL we got. Used to be bad but they made some pretty sweet changes and now we have dice and wishful resin which makes getting certain pieces a lot easier too.
>>424162 I don't play Genshin and ZZZ so I'm not clued in on what's going on in those games, but the new shop kinda just feels like whalebait for whales to get dice. Realistically 99% of players (yeah I made up the number) aren't going to get anyone to E6, even from the standard banner, so they're at the mercy of hoyo feeling like giving out one currency thing. Personally I'm holding onto my 2 ones for the possibility of them adding in sexo I have missed/haven't rolled for like SW and Yunli, just novelty dickpicks. I'm hoping they're going to be more generous with giving out the currency and that it wasn't a one time only thing/anniversary thing but eh we'll see. >>424077 Yeah just use RM
>>424408 >Yeah just use RM Cool. That's what I've been doing. Good to know it works in this context too.
>>424354 Wuwa does suffer a lot from BiS team oriented design, but it's also tuned to where you can mix and match to some extent, like you don't need Zhezhi specifically for Carlotta, any skill buffer works or you can run quickswap with Changli. In ZZZ I don't feel like it's a thing at all, obviously some agents synergise like Zhu and Qingyi or Miyabi and Yanagi or Astra and Eve or Sanby and Trigger, but all of them have good alternative teams. If you want to hagmaxx run mono-electric Yanagi Trigger Rina, if you like lolis run Piper Jufufu Lucy, if you like men run monogay Hugo Lycaon Lighter. No need to bite your nails over meta like if you run Acheron with no Jamiroquai or Aglaea with no Sunday. >For Relics, I feel like they got a ton better after the relic QoL we got. Used to be bad but they made some pretty sweet changes and now we have dice and wishful resin which makes getting certain pieces a lot easier too. The QoL is nice, in a vacuum even better than ZZZ because of wishful resin and reroll cubes, but the rigged stats and scarcity of relic remains ruin everything. In ZZZ I barely even touch disc mines, only during 2x events and when I need to spend weekly sweep tickets, almost all of my discs are crafted and I have great crit sets on most of my attackers and decent anomaly sets on my anomaly agents, meanwhile in HSR it can takes weeks just to get a piece with the right main stat which will then roll into trash substats 9 times out of 10. On top of that there's little to no retarded break points that are mandatory to have your team functioning at a baseline
>>424408 Yeah it's definitely a whale shop but the important point of it is that we got one golden thingy for free and they confirmed that we're going to get more in the future along with them updating and adding to the store. Probably future important milestones or anniversaries too and the currency does not expire so you can hold onto it until they add something worth your while and grab it. Right now, a free Ruan Mei is huge for a ton of players or E1 Ruan Mei which is also pretty good. Though personally, I decided to save my points and just wait until they add something I want or need to the shop.
>>424467 > If you want to hagmaxx run mono-electric Yanagi Trigger Rina, if you like lolis run Piper Jufufu Lucy, if you like men run monogay Hugo Lycaon Lighter. No need to bite your nails over meta like if you run Acheron with no Jamiroquai or Aglaea with no Sunday. There's an abyss of difference between Yanagi/Trigger/Rina and Piper/Jufufu/Lucy though. It's like comparing Castorice/Hyacine/Tribbie to Kafka/Black Swan/Natasha. And therein lies the problem. I feel like HSR has a lot more variety where you can run what you like or want where there's meta characters for every step of the spectrum and can feel like you're being pandered to without having to feel like a third world peasant running sub-optimal non-meta stuff while everyone else celebrates their meta characters that pander to them. For Acheron, the Jamiroquai problem can be solved by getting her E2 I feel like and if Silver Wolf doesn't get gutted then she might be another great choice too. A friend I know loves Acheron and 0-cycles everything with her but he doesn't even use any Nihility at all to do so while another guy despises the idea of Tribbie existing but still 0-cycles shit and puts more damage than 99% of the current population using Hyacine DPS. Aglaea is kinda boned since they designed her to be reliant on Sunday for some reason but can cope for a future character to solve this issue I guess. Basically, the tl;dr is man I wish these games had more variety so I don't have to feel like a beggar waiting for scraps. >but the rigged stats and scarcity of relic remains ruin everything. My routine is just shut off my brain and spam relic domains. Once per patch or whenever I can be bothered, I'll go through all the relics I farmed and level them up since I seem to have infinite relic fodder after the update that gave you refunds for salvaging leveled pieces and usually I can get a very nice piece for someone or a few good pieces. I'm also a bit of a hoarder so I rarely use my dice or resins because I'm saving them for whenever I need them and that "whenever I need them" rarely comes since I'll likely put together a full set from autobattling relic caverns during dead weeks or downtime. I do agree ZZZ's disc system is better since no substat variance means you can get great pieces a lot more easily but HSR's relic system deserves some credit too since it went from absolutely awful to a lot nicer from 1.x to 3.x.
>>424571 >Basically, the tl;dr is man I wish these games had more variety so I don't have to feel like a beggar waiting for scraps. That can be said about both games though. ZZZ isn't even a year old yet and imo so far it's been doing a pretty good job at releasing agents with intersecting niches so that you aren't pigeonholed into specific comps. HSR is on its third year and while you can pick and choose with some teams (i.e. "all cute" team for Castorice, "waifu" break teams, Yaoqing or IPC teams for lore), there is a lot of niche archetypes or DPS with gimmicks that have very limited options. For all its flaws Genshin is still not beat in team variety, reactions are the cornerstone of the whole combat system and barring a few exceptions you have multiple sidegrades for almost any slot, including both 4* and 5* characters.

They should get the guy who does the trailer cinematography for the story + storyboard. I don't mind the over the shoulder camera and the limited poses during dialogue but some moments need to be captured better. For example, Aglaea getting cornered in the baths. It should have shown her getting stabbed and then falling onto the pool getting mixed with her golden blood. That moment should have been poignant. The story is supposed to have all these sacrifices and goodbyes but they don't feel as impactful as they should be. I guess that's my only real gripe about it.
>>425202 well they 100% weren't going to show aglaea faceplanting into concrete that's for sure when the game is rated at 12+, nevermind the fact that showing women dying is generally perceived as of bad taste. trailer team is pretty good but i have a feeling they don't really interface with the bulk of the story team as much as they should. more like they're just subordinate to pumping out trailers. interim solution they should do more of those evocative pictures to frame a poignant scenes at least.
>>425410 Face planting isn't what I really had in mind. She can either fall into some deep baths or just kind of slump in upper baths. I was imagining something more like this. Her death could still be done beautifully. Besides they already showed Tinyun's neck snapping early on in the game and I didn't think the playerbase saw it as bad taste.
>>425466 yeah i agree it could be better presented. honestly i think they should probably scale back the overall scope of the next production and spend more time on presenting the experience better even if it meant the overall length is shorter
>>425482 I honestly hope they keep the length. The problem I think is that they have too many characters to focus on.
>>425523 >>425482 They did show Aglaea's death though It's the bracelet floating in the gold lava. "You will have your final bath in gold."

>>425553 It's peak but it's pretty long
>>425546 kek, i guess i still think they could've milked more emotions from the bath scene tho
>>425565 I think the only one that was truly offscreened was Tribbie. Everyone else dies on screen, I guess they thought it would be too much to show a literal child dying brutally like that?
>>425573 with FTC getting uppity and looking for reasons they probably don't wanna get too creative these days
>>425546 Well, her soul/consciousness was already gone when she got turned into a bracelet. I don't know if I count last vestiges of divinity is actually "her". In any case though they could have framed her "first/fakeout death" lying in the golden baths as the prophecy but then hit you later with the lava scene without the narration as an "ooooh" moment.
>>425573 In one of the memory nodes, it says that Hyacine had to walk into a mural of lava to merge with Aquila. That would have been cool to show too. I was under the impression that Hyacine returning the coreflame and taking up the divinity was a harmless affair, but walking into lava is pretty hardcore.
>>425523 >too many characters It wouldn't be as much of an issue if they didn't give most of them temporary deaths for drama and instead allowed them to be actively involved for the full runtime of the plot. Hysilens and Cerydra really don't need to exist either.
>>425677 It's just a rehash of Elysian Realm but better, really. Featuring both Kevin Kaslana and the Herrscher of Ego. I played the original flamechasing journey so I already had a general idea of what Shaoji is doing or where he's going to go with it but I don't know how he plans to wrap it up since ER's situation is different from Amphoreus situation. And I don't think players would be satisfied if it ended the same was as Elysian Realm did, me included.
I feel like Cinny would be busted in PF, can anyone attest to that?
>>425677 >allowed them to be actively involved for the full runtime The only way I see that happening is if each chrysos heir is a full blown POV that spans 4 patches and occasionally intersects with each other and they all collect the flames nearly the same time.

Posting a new theory since the first one I made seems be kill : Mem is Cyrene but right now Mem's body is being inhabited by March's soul hence the very similar mannerisms. This happened because Cyrene is the one trying to hijack March's body, causing their souls to switch body. Cyrene is actually trying to escape Amphoreus as she's been held prisoner here for centuries by Lygus who is forcing her to use her power as an emanator of Remembrance conjointly with Rubert's Scepter to create his simulation. March being intrinsically linked to the Remembrance made for a perfect escape route. As for Lygus' motive, I would say he explained it plainly already : the path of Destruction is a mystery to everyone in the universe, and he's hoping to pierce its secret by experimenting with the imprisoned Lord Ravager, over and over like Herta with her SU. Thougts?
>>427893 i doubt lygus and cyrene are enemies, didn't seem like it in the 3.3 ending
<got lucky Hyacine early in a dream <wake up, no Hyacine early Heartshattering. Also after waking up I started the Galactic Baseballer event and Cipher's JP voice is making my Johnson the Big Johnson.
Cipher's death is so fucking cheap holy fuck. Also makes no sense because she's supposed to be smarter than this. Or at least they gave us zero context on why she would go back for the stupid thing. Just feels like they didn't know how to write her out of the ONE PATCH SHE APPEARS IN. Also the sky temple was probably the highlight of amphoreus so far, but i fell like it kinda didn't... earn its epicness? Also I still fucking hate how Shonen McProtagonist Phainon is. Pretty ok patch overall.

>>427893 supposedly at every end of the loop, phainon is always the last person to survive and he persists into the next loop as the flame reaver, only to be defeated by that loop's phainon, whom would then survive into the next loop and repeat the process. I think the flame reaver is a phainon who realized the truth of the world, that it was lygus's experiment, so he tries to stop the cycle by sabotaging the flame-chase only to fall to his newer version. that said, how is the new phainon always stronger than the last? like some kind of new game+. I think that the prison of amphoreus is starting to show it's cracks and that every new phainon just get a little more of his lord ravager power back.

Like yeah, why wouldn't you use Tribbie in PF, why wouldn't you use Sunday with Saber, of course they all have their sigs too, why would you use hertacones or BP cones or whatnot? Which just doesn't make sense when you need to have above average luck just to own half of the limited characters at E0S0. In the same way 0-cycle fags are like "do you really not have S15 DDD and four Eagle sets with 160 speed and perfect crit stats?". There's one guy I found that does a lot of various showcases on 3.x characters with different levels of relatability and his (her?) username is fucking PhainonSimp. Kinda makes me want to set up a private server to test shit myself, but I'm afraid free access to every character and infinite god relics would make logging into my real bum ass account feel like shit

>>431295 Don't give yourself perfect relics then and just mimic the ones you have on live. The appeal of a private server is testing out stuff without hurting your real acc or testing viability. Though for HSR, I just roll based on design. If it uses the girl model or the loli model then i'm going to blindly roll without looking and if it goes above then I'll consider a lot of factors like if I like their design, story, how viable they are, etc etc.
(158.20 KB 2000x1825 hyathink.jpg)

>>431295 they're just showing what people want to see. you know people request "do this X lineup next" all the time right? feeding what people want to see gets them views and youtube money. if anything i'd say it's a reflection of the playerbase
>>431295 I've seen a smattering of no sig, low cost showcases such as no Sunday with Seibah, full 4* lineups and so on Of course not all of them show the relics they have equipped so it should always be taken with a pinch of salt but showcases are in my mind primarily a way to look at how the character plays. They aren't gospel and especially with how early we are in the beta they are bound to differ from the live release. At which point you'll be beholden to the usual suspects for demos of the freshly released characters naturally. But since I HAVE been pretty lucky I DO in fact have lots of signatures. My rolling mistakes lie elsewhere but I roll primarily on the ruleset of 'does this tickle my fancy?' f2p true btw
>>431295 the problem started with E2 acheron and the harmony path after all, they really need to decrease the HP inflation, at least they are trying now with phainon and buffing the 1.X characters, is a good first step <do you really not have S15 DDD and four Eagle sets with 160 speed that was always the cope argument towards the flaws of hsr endgame.
>>431435 If you're aiming for a 3-star then I feel like you can clear with whatever pretty easily. The HP inflation only starts presenting itself when you're trying to 0-cycle or do low cycle clears. MoC might honestly be the reason why everyone thinks HSR has the worst powercreep because people feel like shit for clearing with a lot of cycles but nobody complains if they clear with only 2 seconds left in the other games since their total time isn't displayed so a clear is a clear.
the should just frontload the gems reward to moc9-11. make moc12 for dickswinging no reward contests only. the bellyaching about hp inflation will go away overnight.
Hyacute!
I just 2 star MoC 12 from time to time and move on with my day
>>431512 I don't know about that, some people are so bad at the game that they make you weep for the retarded. One of the guys I know whaled for all sorts of things like E2 Castorice, E1 JQ, E1 Robin, E6 Acheron and was whining about not being able to 0-cycle MoC. At that point it's severe skill issues and not a game problem.
>>431381 No way noone requested running Redman without Sparkle, I've only seen a single showcase with I think RMC Tribbie Gally and that was today. >>431391 There are some, but few and far between, the majority are cookie cutter comps with barely any deviation from the obvious BiS team. Or they have private server tier relic builds. >>431452 >If you're aiming for a 3-star then I feel like you can clear with whatever pretty easily. I guess, but so much of it hinges on relics. I have full premium teams for Feixiao and Rappa, plus copium Castorice and the only endgame I've ever full cleared is PF last rotation. MoC11, PF 10~11/12 and AS 11/12 are a breeze, but those last few stars are exponentially harder, minus PF which feels extremely enemy lineup dependant with my teams
>>431570 Feixiao side 1 and Castorice side 2 should be able to clear MOC12 though. Did you grab Tribbie and Hyacine for Castorice? Her team feels extremely overpowered for me with those two honestly.
>>431588 >Feixiao side 1 and Castorice side 2 I should probably try that, I did hear Pollux is hard to 0c but forgiving to 5 cycle with most teams. >Did you grab Tribbie and Hyacine Tribbie no and never, trying to get Cinny now but I'll just save for Cipher if I fail the 50/50 Also forgot to mention I have Anaxa too but he feels unusable with E0 Bronya even though I somehow got a S+ build on him
>>431639 Hyacine is great for Castorice and is her best in slot sustain so you should seriously try your best to get her at least at E0S0. If you have a hateboner for Tribbie for some reason then you can replace her for Ruan Mei but you should really try to get Tribbie too on a rerun since she's amazing for Amphoreus teams. You have to always remember that Honkai: Star Rail wants to sell you teams and wants you to focus on teams so focusing on teams YOU want is the key to beating the endgame rather than just grabbing random meta characters here and there because they were good. Team synergy should be the priority and strengthening the teams you personally like. Like for example, if you want to run Anaxa then get his premium team members and LC then roll his team and if you want to run Castorice then Tribbie and Hyacine do wonders for her team. If you go and for example end up rolling Aglaea without Sunday, Castorice E0S0 without her teammates and E0S0 Anaxa with no one to support him then of course you're going to struggle so you should plan to get a character you like then build around them to make them stronger and suddenly getting the 3-stars is trivial. And if you don't know who's good with who or want to test out teams then you can use the private server you mentioned above, replicate your relics on the live server and test out what works or who works until you have a clear idea and a solid plan of where you want to go or who you want to roll for because rolling without a plan is how you end with a bunch of half-assed teams that have no synergy together. Hopefully you can find or figure out some teams that make you happy and start clearing those endgame stages easily.

I will never pull for meta, 1 pull per month isn't worth it when I'm already having troubling making ends meet while getting every character I like. Thankfully for how cockblocky HSR teambuilding can be there's very rarely pivotal characters that are just mandatory to make teams feel fun. Tribbie's buffs are all generic so Castorice can play with RM too, Cipher should also be able to work even if she won't record RMC's TRVE damage. Guess Sunday's in my plans more for meta than for sovl, but I don't dislike him (though I sure did when reading 2.2) >If you go and for example end up rolling Aglaea without Sunday, Castorice E0S0 without her teammates and E0S0 Anaxa with no one to support him then of course you're going to struggle so you should plan to get a character you like then build around them to make them stronger and suddenly getting the 3-stars is trivial.

>>434240 Yeah, that's what I meant. It's essentially the trickster god's power, but the lie was only maintained since Cipher was the source. When FR killed her the device immediately turned off (remember Zagreus was still around as Bartholos until near the end).

>>435620 yup skipping sunday's rerun
>>435620 Buff for 1 turn actually doesn't sound that bad if her gimmick is giving extra turns in place of AA, but unfortunately half of the characters in the game have their own 100% AA gimmicks, including Saber. One character I can see her working perfectly with is Boothill, he only cares about action value and BE
>>435663 If she gives extra turns then you could use it on Castorice's dragon I guess before blowing it up? It wouldn't matter if it's 1 turn only since Castorice's dragon explodes anyway >>435660 I want Honkai Furina to be as good as Genshin Furina, she deserves it.

>>435620 that ult seems pretty goddamn useless, i wonder if they're gonna change it remember that tribbie's ult used to be 180 and she didn't have an energy trace lol
>Phainon He asserts dominance not just in his shilled MoC, but also on previous MoC that help buff everyone, with extremely easy, comfortable gameplay. But there is a pattern: those bosses required PURE DMG AND SURVIVABILITY. The moment there is a mechanic that prevent him from putting any meaningful progress during his ult, you saw that happened. His AS and PF's performance isn't looking too bright either. Yes, he has Cerydra coming, but that doesn't solve his major problem of not having teammates for half of the time. What he needs is a way to lower his ult cost somehow to allow his teammates more screen time, but I could understand if they choose not to do that and make him a casual-centric unit like Firefly, in which case, too bad. Just remember: mhy has the habit of releasing an overtuned female version of a male DPS a few patches later. Given Cyrene is another domain user, you can see the flag here. >Saber Simple, but effective, with a little bit of leeway for optimization. Currently she is the most effective standalone 3.4 unit across all 3 endgame modes. I don't mind her staying that way with a bit more buff in number. >Archer The most fun 3.4 unit for me. Absolutely ridiculous skill ceiling. He doesn't just vacuum the leftover supports, he elevates them and put their names on the highest vertical single-target dmg team. They often make hunt units really good cuz they're by nature not casual friendly so I hope the trend repeats. I can still see him perform decently well in PF, AS and AoE MoC with the right setting, buff. Give him 200 mana ult and 3 FuA per ult and he's the new Feixiao. >SW A favorite child of Hoyo and they're clearly not shy showing that. Having a Nihility competing against Harmony for a BiS in any team other than Acheron is diabolical. Her amp is insane, with decent solo DPS potential. If it stays that way, we'll have the biggest winner of 3.4. Give her the ability to add bug that's not currently on the enemies then she's perfection. >Kafka A very interesting change, focus on frequency to deal dmg. Although nothing too crazy right now, Hysilens is right around the corner and who know? Maybe DoT'll be great again. Can't judge how good these changes are until then. Maybe give her another amp in the form of debuff to further solidify her driver role. >JL and Blade HP scaler without the ability to do BIG dmg out of turn is a big no no because atk scalers have Robin. Individually, they're better, but when put into a team, there is hardly any change. JL specifically feels worse. I don't think there is any hope of saving them if they just focus on the number.
>>435716 Sounds atrocious for Aglaea, she gets a gorillion turns and without Domingo half of them will be without Garmentmaker
>>435620 So their intention is make her only work with Phainon and no one else. Too bad, guess I'll just get the Kot and Hysilens.

>>436010 JQ bros notlikethis...
>>436026 Thanks......
>>436188 think they're referring to castorice/mydei and maybe ff/boothill a lot of people say that ff is a brick these days and there might be some truth to it, but ff still has lower cost clears for all the recent amphoreus bosses than boothill
>>436385 My firefly feels so fucking bad every time I use her so I'd believe that she's more of brickfly these days. I regret the rolls I made on her and wish I could have put them towards literally anyone else since the other DPS characters of that version aged way better than her. I just need to wait for a new DPS chara that I like and want to build around then focus on them to have 2 good teams and forget brickfly ever existed. Phainon is kinda tempting and might grab his E0S0 if I get desperate but I don't want to roll for male.
>He didn't roll E2
>>436409 >Needs E2 >Needs Lingsha >Needs Ruan Mei >Needs Fugue E1 >Needs her cone Firefly is too high maintenance for me. This is why I left that needy girl for Castorice that just wants her cone and Hyacine.
>>436397 idk i think you're going to get scammed again, phainon looks like firefly electric boogaloo where the base kit sucks and you have to roll the e2
>>436385 Castorice and Mydei play differently, some of their supports don't synergise with the other that well, or they can just be played on the same team using their mutual BiS Tribbie. FF and Boothill also play differently, FF doesn't use any AA supports and BH has a higher performance ceiling at lower investment. Though you could say Rappa powercrept SAM kek
>>436422 <needs lingsha <needs fugue e1 how much of an upgrade are those two over gallagher and hmc?
>>436397 Phainon has the same deceptive design as Firefly, except he won't only need E2 and Cerydra down the line but also S1. He'll work if you want to just roll a new DPS to auto clear endgame every half year I guess
>>436439 i wouldn't consider 6 cost high investment but sure. and most dpses play differently to some extent, so the point is moot if you want to argue minute differences like how both ff and boothill still require aa supports, just that for ff, the aa is on a lightcone. ratio doesn't even run dual dps like feixiao anymore, you just run him as a generic hypercarry now
>>436457 Fugue E1 is massive for any break team because she gives 50% WBE and toughness bars are continuously inflating
>>436457 E1 Fugue is just an extra 50% WBE and allows you to replace Ruan Mei if you want. Lingsha is just a better gallagher in every way except sp printing
>>436473 >>436483 so if i were to get one of them itd be fugue right? what does tingyun need besides e1 in that break team?
>>436491 Just a lot of speed, BE and pearls. She's fairly easy to build and doesn't need a whole lot. You don't even need E1 for her to be better than HMC but it is a pretty big boost in power
>>436517 can you use both her and hmc or do the buffs fall off?
>>436527 They stack together, it's why you see a lot of firefly runs that run both and kick out the healer
>>436527 You can use both, as the other anon said they stack.
>>436534 >>436538 then i might pick her up on a rerun if next planets stuff doesnt interest me
>>436527 Superbreak is maybe the only team that's been viable to run sustainless casually because of how much Fugue, HMC and RM delay the enemies together, but it's also starting to get way harder

>>437413 That art isn't very off compared to her model's bust. A lot of the retarded fan artists on the other hand inflate her chest size way too much.
>>437413 I think Hyacine so far has it worse than Sparkle right now. Sparkle is generally still drawn as petite even if artists like to draw her more mature while Hyacine is really drawn thicker and taller than Cipher which is a huh? Though that's probably because Hyacine only has a few pictures so far while Sparkle has like 4k so HOPEFULLY some actual artists with working eyes will start drawing her later. It's the same disease from Genshin where a character is supposed to be a small and petite teen but gets drawn like they went on a diet of only supersized McDonalds meals for five years COUGH NILOU COUGH.
>>437298 And I hate when lolifags deage characters to fit their fetishes
>>437460 is the right one AI? Icas colors seem a bit off
>>437469 It's always the other way around though? Nobody's getting deaged. If a character is using the same model as Clara and Yunli then of course they're going to get loli art. You'd have a point if the character was using the Maid or Lady models but isn't in this case so I don't understand your complaint.
>CD Chest Hyacine Hyacine has no mercy...
>>437513 >ruthless demon isnt an hp% chest a bigger dmg upgrade?
>>437498 You're implying every character using that model looks like a loli which is just plainly wrong and is exactly the thing I'm complaining about
>>437517 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ii-TCQJkEt0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8g6X8Fmvj78 The latest AS seems to have people running CD chest on her so apparently not? >>437522 What's your problem anyway? There's two loli models and two adult models. Why cry about the loli models and characters when there's a lot more Maid/Lady characters in the game than Girl characters? Let people enjoy their characters too.
>>437534 maybe i will try a run with cd chest too even tho i dont have eagle set for AV manipulation autism Is it even worth to run healing output at e0s1 if i have over 5k hp on her because of the newbud hardcap?
>>437534 What does the number of models have to do with anything? I'm not talking about that, half of the girl/hebe model characters aren't lolis and people are drawing or slopping them off-model
>>437513 >>437534 So this is the power of 100% Crit Rape...
>>437570 >>437562 Not sure, I was also under the impression that healing output would be better on here due to everyone recommending healing on her but everyone seems to be changing to CD% Chest and HP% rope. My theory is probably that ER% rope is better in the long run for more ults and Healing Output% is probably better to charge Castorice and her own Trace faster but since these Apocalyptic Shadow strategies want to kill in as few turns as possible and need Hyacine to meet a strict damage requirement, both HP% Rope and CD% Chest are used to squeeze more damage out of her and properly kill the two Cocolia pillars like she's supposed to. Ramping up her passive doesn't matter since her job as a "damage dealer" is done after she kills the pillars and energy doesn't matter since she's getting all her energy refilled from AS mechanics. >>437567 Again, what does that matter? Why does that matter? You have a great deal of characters to enjoy, what's the problem with people drawing the few loli model characters as lolis or wanting the loli characters to be drawn as such? Or are you the only one allowed to enjoy themselves here? I'm all for people liking and enjoying what they like but as long as they don't throw a fit when others do it too.

>>437630 Again, you're not getting my point. I don't care what model a character uses, if someone draws them off-model to fit their headcanon I find it aggravating. I don't want to see loli Hyacine and I don't want to see Clara with boobs.
>>437751 But they're literally the same exact model, both of them? What's the difference between Clara and Hyacine? They're both softspoken, sound young, look young and are flat so how come one is "supposed to be older"? Everyone also refers to her as a young girl everywhere too so I don't see the difference.

>>437819 wheres the maid uniform
>>437844 >IDing characters by model Are you going to give some speech about how certain characters are "Child coded" and some aren't? Didn't know we had twitter in here. This dumb argument has gone on for too long so I'm just going to make a last post on the topic and call it a day. Hyacine is a loli/hebe/whatever you wanna call it. She uses the "Girl" model like all the other ones before her, her voice casting sounds very young too, the story even treats her like a young prodigy and obviously also looks very young. Hoyoverse doesn't shy away from using the older models, in fact, they use the Maid model as their go-to model for nearly every female character so they simply decided that they wanted her to be on the younger side and I value the actual ingame stuff more than some dumbos deciding what characters are "Child coded" and which ones aren't because loli disgusts them.

Honestly I actually like Amphoreus and cant wait for the story to continue and every hype moment that was hyped up landed well from Nikador to Flame Reaver to Aquila The characters arent written bad, only just prolonged, but I still connected to each one to enough degrees to like them all Amphoreus in future patches will be looked back as what Penacony failed to be
(49.35 KB 200x200 1727888894761715.png)

The main problem with Amphoreus is that it's in a live service game so the pace is broken every 6 weeks and it will continue like that for almost a year. If it was just a 50 hour JRPG it'd land way better. With Penacony you could at least realistically wait for a few months and do the story in one go, but here you'd need to dodge spoilers from the community and the devs for the entire patch cycle and would have so little content you may as well unironically log in once every 6 weeks to do events and endgame. Newcuties of the future lose out on hundreds of pulls but they can at least engage with the story without these hiccups
Wow so theyre actually renaming the bosses in the new cycle after the Chrysos Heirs Which I guess answers my question if (example) Nikador was a part of the title of Strife Titan, Lance of Fury. Seems every Chrysos Heir has their real name be woven into the name of the God and their private name hence Nikador and Gnaeus or Mydei and Mydeimos

>>441798 Its been painstakingly obviously spelled out for everyone in the story that the coreflames of the chrysos heirs will make them into the new titans in the next cycle, this is only a spoiler if you didnt play Amphoreus at all
I'm gonna be really upset if they don't rerun Silverwife along with her buffs because fuck me that E2
>>441805 I'm one of (the perhaps few) people who's holding out hope that because the TB and other outside forces are there like the two Geniuses peeking into what the fuck Amphoreus actually is maybe the cycle will be broken or some similar happier ending for the current generation of Chrysos Heirs. Yes, HI3 also already set the pattern for the Flame-Chase, and maybe Amphoreus is their way of getting the HI3 references out of the way. Also given that from the spoilers I've read for the current patch, Mydeimos and Cifera are apparently DEAD dead, it doesn't exactly follow that they'll be just revived just like that to be the new Titans. At the very least, none of the past scenes hint at that. Gnaeus, Polyxia, and Cerces were all very much alive when they ascended. There's also TB- are you going to be tethered to Amphoreus forever to be the Time Titan? Sure, Penacony already set a precedent for a Trailblazer to settle on a planet for helping or whatever else purpose, but surely the writers won't end your story just like that.

>>442409 It's awkward whenever different people have different ideas of what's a spoiler, on the one hand you have something obvious like a plot twist in the beta that won't happen for months and on the other hand you have a boss fight that's been in the game for a week already.

Can anyone give me a tip on what to level in Cinny's kit first and when to pivot into grinding relics for 200 speed? I think I should be able to get the last star in PF like this too
>>443326 >when to pivot into grinding relics for 200 speed? If you've maxed out all her traces, gotten the Remembrance cone from Herta's shop to S5 (or you have her cone), and you still find yourself short of 200 or more SPD in battle then that's when you hit the mines. You should level the Memosprite Talent/Skill/Ult first, then grab her Bonus Traces. Her talent and Memo skill can be leveled if you have the spare resources but they're not a priority, basic attack is about as useful as you'd expect.

>>453604 I did that at one point, the problem is my usual Kafka/Sampo/Ruan Mei/Fofo team couldn't break the spears or kill Gepard fast enough, and I ended up in a long protracted battle. This last attempt was based on watching Pokke do it with a Kafka/Black Swan/Fugue/Gallagher team, which was able to break Side one before Gepard puts up his shield (and then use the energy to nuke him into oblivion). Fugue buffs Gallagher as a breaker while the two DoT characters take advantage of spreading dots for the Apoc Shadow Effect. But it didn't quite work out as slick for me.

>>454930 Just use a Hyacine from the internet.
>>454881 Honestly pretty shit since I just got him from losing the 50/50, but that is why I was pretty surprised how close it was to RMC. I do think that a large part of that is the Pollux shilling. It just creates even stronger synergy between the two, Blades gets more stacks which leads to more fuas which charges Castorice more. Blade isn't even really there to deal damage but just to charge Castorice. And with the buffs next patch, he should deal more damage and charge more with the taunt. So should probably at least be a second best option, allowing you to free up TB for Therta/Yunli/superbreak teams.
>>455132 Tried it with Hyacine, and yeah pretty comparable. Both Blade and RMC 0-cycled. The RMC team did have a dragon ult ready, while the Blade team was only halfway. So Blade still second best, although the buffs should reduce the gap. Also not an amazing player or anything, just my personal experience in using them both
>>455132 Also got him in 3.2 but my build is more scuffed, 134 speed but way less HP, that may be what makes the difference. I don't have Cinny's cone either, which shouldn't matter that much for batterying in a 0-cycle, but will add up in longer battles. I'll try to work on it in the next few days and report how much his performance can be improved with my comp

I will admit, of all the characters that could be the assist for an Echo of War/Weekly Boss enemy, I expected Hyacine the least. So far we have The Engine of Creation, Imbibitor Lunae, and The Astral Express. Also, I found I have a lot of things to say about the story now that it's going faster, but mostly that I can't wait for the next part and I really should've not read the story yet and instead played this part and the next in one go. I've also talked with a friend who also plays HSR and they mentioned the Golden Scapegoat theory where it could be a hint to who the Flame Reaver really is, and while I think it's a very plausible hint now with everything else that's been mentioned in the main story, I'll still wait for the explicit reveal.

>>473969 >unbrick his ult Wait I haven't been paying close attention to the betas. I thought he was supposed to be cracked.
>>474041 He's cracked, but he has an obvious Achilles' heel in that his ult advances on fixed AV intervals based on his base speed and a lesser one in that after you're done beefing him up you exit ult state with no SP nor energy. The AV problem is alleviated a bit with E2S1, but it'll still going to fall off eventually. The team problem is fixed by Cerydra, but there's only partial info on her kit and it's already been said part of it hinges on her sig.

>>472061 There just isn't that much to discuss. That's also why Hoyo generals are the most toxic, because people troll/ragebait/shitpost for entertainment since they have nothing else to do, and Hoyo generals happen to be the biggest targets. Ironically, /lolg/ is much less toxic because people are always discussing the game, even if LoL is infamous for being one of the most toxic games.
>>474707 The Blue Archive general is the same honestly. There's little to discuss so the threads are just a chatroom and image dump. Any fast thread just devolves into a chatroom because people are bored and decide to just do whatever to keep the thread activity up and that problem won't change between 4chan or 8chan since it's the same people in the end.
>>474707 >That's also why Hoyo generals are the most toxic, because people troll/ragebait/shitpost for entertainment since they have nothing else to do Not true, there is a lot of gameplay discussion in /zzz/ because it's easy to casually TC in if you're an action game player. HSR theorycrafting is extremely autistic and almost entirely math so basically noone bothers. >Hoyo generals happen to be the biggest targets. That much is true though, the real reason while we're so dead is /hsrg/ spent months being marinated in all the shitposting, to the point there was barely anyone left to migrate. I can count the number of times I opened 4/hsrg/ during Amphoreus on one hand because of how bad it was, if I wasn't playing ZZZ and Wuwa I'd be oblivious to the exodus.
the schism isn't so bad. the mentally ill can stay in their asylum.

>>473700 To be fair, the story was pretty upfront with "everyone but Phainon will die in the end", but it still sucks seeing an entire fucking cast killed off like it's Akame ga Kill.
>>476120 It's okay they'll be back because the pink slut wrote about them.
>>476128 >pink slut I thought I was the one writing in the book, not Mem.
>>476133 I see it as a case where the Trailblazer is a medium. You may be doing it, but it's not by your power that it happens. It'd be funny if the entire thing from our perspective was turned into a fever dream with automatic writing.
>>476120 I normally hate tragedywank and miseryporn but I played the original Elysian realm and knew this was going to happen before the story even mentioned it. And yeah they're going to come back because Elysia wrote about them and because they still need to sell Cerydra and Hysilens. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3XmgyWiFuM Also, they played Elysia's theme song when she appears. Shaoji isn't even being subtle about it with the HI3 references at this point, he's just bashing people with them like a hammer while yelling "SEE, THIS IS ELYSIA!!!".

Welt already mentioned about how there can be really similar looking people like with Bronya and SW, but they can recast them into different roles like they did in Genshin with Venti and Raiden and Yae and others while only barely resembling their reference. >>476158 Why wouldn't you want to see Elysia?

Why in all of the showcases I've seen do people always save Cipher's burst until the very end of the fight?
>>476621 Maybe because the number that goes up beside her character portrait is related to her burst, so it's good to stack as much of it as possible?
>>476621 Because she basically does nothing until her ult is loaded so the best case scenario is finishing off a target
>>476621 That’s the entire point of Cipher. Her unique mechanic is the ability to carry over damage from wave 1 to the last phase of wave 2.

>>477343 i still don't quite understand how it works, iirc when i choose this >>477331 the day will be shorter instead of the night? doesn't this mean we get less buff uptime because we are in the day less than before? what i think is combining that boon with the reduce night interval change so that both will be shorter will be better, is this wrong?
>>477358 both will be shorter it's the interval between both. You basically cycle so you always have either the phainon buff or the droma buff for instance (both last two turns)

>>477562 I don't mind if they never add any skip because the main thing about HSR is the story and characters. If you start a new HSR patch but skip all the story then you have literally zero content and are just playing yourself. Like what are you going to do after skipping all the story? MoC, PF and AS? I'd understand in action games where people want the characters to shut up and start the action but there's no such thing here so players are retarded.
>>478012 MOC is for end game number crucncher
>>478012 I'd appreciate it for the filler sidequests and it's nice to have the option in general
>>478012 I'd rather they just allow literally all lines to be fast forwarded. I understand some lines can't be fast forwarded immediately because it comes with some animation or transition that's important, like the camera switching to focus on an important object or another character entering the scene. For some reason that also applies even to the unvoiced quests. That would make speedreading and mashing spacebar much faster.

I really really hope March's one is gonna be more like Pollux.

>>479285 I can see why someone would pick Barbara's, but for me it's the cameltoe seam.
>>479285 Man, Genshin models are so trash. The only good looking characters pre Natlan are Keka and Rosaria.
>>479358 I like how the models improve with each game. ZZZ models are fantastic.
>>479390 True. But Barbara is actually one of the 1.x characters that aged relatively well compared to characters like Albedo or Diluc. Sure, she has less polygons than newer characters and obviously they cheaped out on the lower body in that regard, since you usually would barely see it and the transpercy filter would normally obfuscate it if you tried. But the fact that Barbara's modeler actually bothered to add pantylines or other details like the flower pattern or the run guards, while also making her ass as shapely as it is, is great till this day. Compared to that Hyacine's tush is sadly quite underdeveloped. She makes up for it with some nice thighs though. I must also mention GFL2 is also really great in terms of clothing textures, even when zooming in the fidelity of the clothes is really impressive on PC.

>>479390 I like the HSR models more though. ZZZ doesn't have a single character I like and it's so horribly unoptimized because every single thing is 3D. Every button on Vivian's shirt? 3D. That badge on her model? 3D. Performance on my machine because I have to render every button on Vivian's dress? Dogshit. >>478146 >>478038 Yeah, instant text would be nice because sometimes you read a line but can't advance it because of animations or something dumb. Full skip is retarded though and I definitely know there's some idiots that will log in day1 of a patch, skip everything then not log in until next patch because they just want to feel like they're "part of the community" and not missing out on the latest and hottest rather than actually playing the game.
>>480744 >it's so horribly unoptimized HSR hasn't been performing any better for me since 3.0, I had to move my PC install to an SSD because loading anywhere took ages and Aglaea's ult made my phone run at like 5FPS. It's gotten better since but I still get performance issues in 3.0 areas. ZZZ has gotten better meanwhile, Lumina square was a FPS killer on release but they did some stealthy optimisation and now it all runs smoothly.
>>480798 Are you using DLSS? I'm running HSR with every setting maxed out but DLSS set to balanced and it's super smooth while ZZZ has to be set at minimum if I want to get good frames due to the shit optimization.
>>480811 No idea, I usually disable AI sloppa settings if available or set to default if not
>>480839 DLSS is great for a performance boost whenever you can find it and I always use it when it's avaliable but AI framegen gives you fake frames and adds input delay so I always avoid that.

>>489686 > I still have no clue why Cyrene/Elysia is so divisive The Elysian realm arc in HI3 was pretty divisive because it was 1.5 years of Elysia shilling. They benched the entire cast of HI3 and pivoted to Elysian realm which was the 13 flamechasers + Raiden Mei and the main story was put on pause to shill them and tell their story. So you either loved Elysia and the flamechasers or you hated it because your favorite got sidelined for a pretty damn long time. After that was the Final arc (Moon arc) which was way more divisive than Elysian Realm where a lot of people either hated it or loved it then after that was part 2 which is almost universally hated. I'll be honestly super disappointed if Shaoji's ending to the story is to pull a HI3 and age up Cyrene to be a carbon copy of Elysia but so far Amphoreus story has been great so I want to have some hope in him.

>>490163 Well since I'm enjoying Amphoreus so far (aside from the wordsloppa) and don't really care about HSR's "main plot" in the first place, I see no reasons for me to dislike her if she ends up being a fun character. I do understand the frustration though, and a year of straight shilling is amplified in a game like HSR which just got on its second year compared to a game that is almost a decade old like HI3.
