>>626014 I'm only interested in Cerydra's model, model size confirmation and kit. Outside that, I hope nothing leaks because I'm tired of having to avoid everything HSR related to not get spoiled.

Oof just finished my weekly DU and no luck for E2 Cipher mommy... Last chance 11 hours from now with the 5 monthly tickets on reset otherwise I'll have to try and grab E1 Tribbie and then gigasave until the Cipher rerun. Already pre-installed and ready for patch day!

reading spoilers is a choice
>>627623 Not really, a lot of people post shit without spoiler tags so you end up having to ignore every community for the game to not get spoiled. It's worse on games where the global version is months/years behind because you could be spoiled solely by looking at fanart or memes which is pretty fucked.
They're handing 100% crit rate like it's candy now. First Hyacine, now Cerydra (this is from her T2)

>>627600 So much for "buffing" old characters. You just know they did this shit on purpose so old units wouldn't be able to compete with their new premier hypercarry Phainon.
>>627802 buffing characters was never about making them surpass anything new, it was always just a consolation prize to assuage the burnt waifuplayers and make their rerun banners not completely unsellable

Fug I have so many characters I want to pull on, gotta get Tribbie and Sparkle in 3.4, and then Cerydra and Silver Wolf in 3.5. Thank god Redman is free, and I have a ton of content to go through.
>>627504 So... the kit about her being a phainon exclusive buffer is bullshit, but her kit is kinda boring? Isn't she just wind cipher?
>>627849 Honestly you might as well just skip everything Amphoreus and go all in on EDO meta
>>627855 Kinda my plan. I was kinda waiting to see how cerydra would be but her kit seems kinda boring.
>>627855 Can't handle more saving man, besides there's not too much of a point in rolling for meta, since it would take years to make up the lost rolls via the endgame modes I might be able to clear. I'm just gonna play this like a jrpg and have a party of cute sexy girls, and Garcher.

Cerydra is 100% getting changed to not work with Anaxa
I like to imagine the seething melty Sparkle will have now that she has to actually do something for once She's basically been a neet on my account, I pulled her first banner and don't have dragon Dan
>>627882 How though. The speed buff is for everyone.
>>627879 begone, fox
>all supportslop are just different variations of "boost atk/crit plus a way for the main dps to attack multiple times" Has HSR hit a design wall?
>>627919 I kinda like that they're making the supports able to deal damage though. My main issue with Genshin/ZZZ is that all my favorite characters were all supports and dealt zdps while I had to roll some hag or fag to deal my damage. HSR sidesteps that problem by deciding the supports can deal damage too so I never feel shafted over all my favorites being supports because I can just make a team where they're the designated damage dealer or just make a 4 support team and dab on content that way.
>>627928 >by deciding the supports can deal damage too ... I'm sorry dawg outside of tribbie I can not think of another case of this lol. Unless you count like cipher as a support.
(38.80 KB 282x282 Sporkle.png)

>>627919 at the end of the day there's only so many variations of dps, healer, tank, buffer
>>627937 Hyacine outdamages anyone from before Amphoreus despite being a healer RMC deals a surprising amount of damage even though they're meant to be a support Cerydra gets Hyacine's 100% free crit trace on top of another new trace that converts ATK to CDMG at a rate of 16% CDMG for every 100 attack. Future supports will likely follow this trend too.
>>627937 he's talking about things like hyacine and spuds in break while ignoring supports have been able to do that in jenshin as well (fuuurrrina and most recently icecoffee)
>>627942 Ok so you were counting outside of the harmony class, but all of your examples are pretty recent.
Just woke up Is cerydra a good universal hypercarry support or do i have to wait for the next one to play my aglaea?
>>627948 Less ignoring and more not knowing. Can't talk about a game I don't play anymore, can I? Not trying to shit on other games without reason, just describing my experience with them. >>627950 Yeah, it's a recent trend that started in Amphoreus. If you had asked me back at penacony then I would have been pretty peeved at the state of the game but the game has been heading towards a direction that panders to my personal tastes in Amphoreus so I have been pretty happy.
I just hope they don't listen to the "ADD MORE ELEMENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" crowd, it'd just increase rolling demand than solve design limitation problems
>>627965 I mean it's pretty obvious they're going the route of adding the featured path of the patch. Remembrance for this one and elation for edo star. Hope elation ends up being better than remembrance which currently has 0 identity and feels like a reskin of other paths.
>>627954 >Has Anti-HP Scaler synergy because she buffs attack and scales with attack >Has Anti-Herta synergy because it resets Herta's "Interpretation" >Makes Anaxa into a literal god and better than Phainon or anyone else so this might get nerfed or removed >BiS for Phainon since she was designed for that I think that sums up the current findings on her
>>627954 She's completely useless on Aglaea because she buffs Skill instead of Basic ATK. Hoyo really just left Aggy out to dry.
>>627978 Also hope Sparkle Dua to be an elation emanator just to make the sampofags seethe.
>>627976 She should also be decent for Redman since he now can fire an extra arrow without spending 2 SP.
>>627954 After thinking about for a bit I think she's only really good with Phainon and only ok with Anaxa and Archer. Bronya or Sunday give Anaxa 4 skills every turn and with Cerydra you need 6 attacks to launch 4 skills in one turn. Same with Archer
>>627975 remembrance is just all the other paths sharing the same gimmick. I am curious what gimmick they'll think up for elation >>627978 >RNG if an elation support uses their skill, there's a chance to buff the enemy instead. if an elation dps makes an attack, there;s a chance you target your own ally (AoE attacks target everyone)
buy it now and get it a year from now

>>627976 >>627980 >>627987 damn shame will still go for atleast e0s0 even tho i dont have a character that can use her seems like they really want people to pull for sunday one last time as the universal hypercarry support
>>627992 >even tho i dont have a character that can use her This is my problem with Sunday and now Cerydra. I was happy to skip Sunday since I don't like him and he works with literally none of my characters but I want to get Cerydra even though she works with zero of my charas so she'd be a dead pull.
>>627988 It probably won't be that bad, but I imagine the DPS having a chance to attack someone you didn't select or there will be 3 different buffs and the support will randomly choose one. It will fuck speed tuners, spread sheeters, and 0 cyclers.
>>627997 You don't have any character that wants an atk/crit/speed steroid??? Not a single one???
>>628004 Acheron doesn't need Sunday/Cerydra. Maybe Cerydra would be OK on her but definitely not Sunday. Firefly doesn't want any of those stats since she's break and uses a pretty self-contained team. Castorice is an HP scaler and already has her complete team who also doesn't need any of those chars. Been hunting for a new DPS to put some investment in and I hear new March will be a damage dealer so maybe Cerydra will be good with her? Though it's more likely that her BiS will be Cyrene instead of Cerydra.
>>627882 Nah, they probably nerfed his multipliers in that V6 hotfix to make you roll Cerydra.
you guys are gonna sound so schizo once we're in the high DEF% slow SPD era
>>628015 Adding to this, Yunli probably wouldn't want Cerydra either even though all those stats would be highly beneficial for her? Since she repeats skills and Yunli's skill is setting up for a counter so idk how the interaction would work there.
>>628044 Counter characters definitely wouldn't want her, but there's like.. two. >>628030 >you thought elation would be high speed random bullshit go >instead its slow and tanky Truly elating
I want an elation kit with something stupid like a fixed 1% crit rate and and absurdly high crit damage but it does 100 attacks at once
(801.22 KB 1200x2000 78545443.png)

>>628015 yeah her kit feels very weird atm only benefiting Phainon/Anaxa/Archer But as always i will wait for the showcases since i am too retarded to figure out a characters strengh by their descriptions alone
I will take screencaps of these posts and enjoy them for when elation kits turn out to be something very boring.

i am still thinking about what to pull next patch i will probably go e1 tribbie to complete my wheelchair and saber e0s1 (is she even good with hyacine tribbie cipher?) but if i get those early i dont know if i will keep pulling to 200 for the archer LC since the other banners are kinda meh

>>628682 >Tribbie and hyacine are kinda iffy since they're designed for HP-based DPS Both are still good for other teams and the point of the wheelchair is that they can drag almost anyone to clear with their own mutual synergy. I'd still use them to carry someone else, pretty sure Saber will do fine with something like Ting Cipher Fofo

(607.46 KB 837x737 HIM.png)

Ok just saw some runs and wouldn't be annoying to get the 6 stacks for cerydra? Especially for phainon who I think can only get one additional meteor during his ult? Archer seems to be able to get them each turn but it seems forced compared to his other teams and you'll probably have to go sustainless because cerydra will need to skill a bunch Anaxa is simply unbelievable, like dear God I could swear that she was made for him not Phainon. No way they are leaving him this op, they will probably make it that his normal skills are the only ones that count
>>628925 i highly doubt she will be stronger than his robin sunday core i dont see it, the double advance combo is just too good
>>628956 close enough, anything is better than being forced to use the shitty birds
>>628925 Honestly seems like she's better suited for a 3rd slot Harmony than a replacement for Bronya/Sparkle/Domingo, 6 stacks is a lot unless the DPS spams extra actions like Anaxa or Redman. She's gonna turn the HSR (Huohuo Sunday Robin) core into the HCR core for hypercarry, while dual DPS teams like FUA or Therta will still make better use of Robin.
>>628999 i dont see her replacing sunday as it stands right now
>>629003 Oh wait I'm retarded, I meant to type HSC, I agree she doesn't replace Sunday, that's what I said in the first half of the post
So what relic and ornaments to farm for garcher?

Hey guys, if that one anon who keeps posting that thumbnail of lygus with fear him in the title is here today, I just want you to know that you were right all along.

>>629032 Does he care about speed at all with sparkle?
>>629080 The HP keeps inflating..............
>>629100 I'm not sure about specific break points but iirc he should be running ATK boots with Sparkle, didn't look into it too much since I don't have her
>>629100 Sparkle needs as much speed as possible the best spot for her with archer is unfortunately 160. Archer just focus on crit rate first, 100 % ideally because his teammates will provide the rest. Speed is unnecessary for him atk is valuable but both Hertashop LC and his own can substitute that

>>629896 Damn, Phainon's slow ass patch is killing the game, can we just skip it?
This one's porn.
>>630023 We haven't even gotten it, but I'm only interested in the story and the fate collab and I know that I won't have anything else to do after that. Oh well, I might speed run everything in my old quests log for more funds.
>want both Phainon and Sunday and Lancer Do we know how good Phainon is and how much investment he needs yet?
>>630151 Get Sunday first, pray some brave soul confirmes cu and wait to see the final verdict one cerydra with phainon.
>>630151 The consensus on Phainon seems to be that right now he'll feel OP but if you want to keep using him in the future you'll need to invest vertically and pull supports for him like with FF. If I were you I'd prioritise Sunday since unless Cerydra gets major reworks he's staying the best hypercarry AA character until at least 4.0 and Phainon will need him anyways
>>630023 no i need to save
>>630008 Yea, this is literally me whenever HSR stuff is involved. I'm so used to spoilers being porn that I forget there's actual spoilers behind them in HSR communities.

I think Cipher SUCKS
i just rebuilt my Cipher from 170 to 200 spd but lost a lot of crit dmg and crit rate does the losing those stats affect her dmg in any significant way or doesnt if matter if i hit 100% crit rate for her ult? (e0s1 btw)
I want to see how well Kafka and Hysilens play with Guin. Love her and she's the reason I have E1 Topaz as the only limited eidolon on my account.

>>631404 Nothing other than guesses SURELY, Rappa gets rerun in 3.5 right? It's been 7 months since her banner and it's going to be 8 once 3.4 is over. Other than that everyone before 3.0 has had at least 1 rerun.
>>631537 Unironically may be in 3.8 with the superbreak support
>>631549 you will get another firefly rerun instead
>>631549 Oh I didn't hear about that, I thought they'd be crazy enough to hold Rappa for 4.0 when Edo Star launches because "Space Japan" and all that and she's a ninja but that makes more sense
>>631549 >Support coincidentally works best with Firefly and is just ok with everyone else
>>631588 >superbreak support >works best with best superbreak character crazy how that works
>>631549 Damn they're still going to put out more superbreak? I have them all and it was such a mistake that new weekly boss shits all over my account
>>631601 Some people believe 3.8 is going to be Constance who will make superbreak great again but the same leakers also thought we were getting Annihilation gang last patch and we didn't so I wouldn't put much stock into that.
>>631595 Firefly is the worst superbreak character. They could still cockblock a support to be for her specifically by tying it to skills since neither BH nor Rappa break with their skill. I'd still use Himeko. >>631601 To be honest I don't even remember if that was a real leak or just feelcrafting based on 3.8 being a Penacony patch and Penacony being about superbreak and FUA

>>631649 Exactly but I just want Aventurine already and don't feel like rolling for Dan.
>>631656 I mean, he has Domingo. Which actually I'm not sure why he's called that.
>>630008 If you have Lynxchan extended minus minus userscript installed, you can have a blurred spoiler instead. Maybe that'll help.
>>631681 Fair. I kinda hope Terravox is not Dan 3.0 since I try to commit to the bit of always getting alts of AE members and official passengers/temporary nameless. To wit, I wonder where they mean to go with Sunday... Whom I did get if course.
>>631665 At least until 3.7, no defined end date
>>631725 I love the AE too and even have my bricked Dan IL from back when he first released but I was struggling real hard with health and dropped the game for long enough time to miss Aventurine twice and he ended being my favorite followed by Sunday.
>>631725 >where they mean to go with Sunday Maybe he'll do something in Amphoreus part 2. If he does literally nothing other than hang out with Welt for an entire year it'll seem like they don't know what to do with him similar to how they treat Himeko.
>>631748 That no defined end date is tripping me out now that I kinda wanna roll Phainon since I don't have a phys dps
>>631777 You Unri? Your Clara? Your Hysilens? Not that you shouldn't roll for Kebin if you like him >>631754 I see. Well here's hoping for you to get the sigga then, I'm quite content with mine (day one E0S1). Even if he's likely to end up dead soon. >>631765 I wondered if Sunday wasn't kind of a test for how people receive a new crew member.. Himeko has baggage so she's probably in protected territory until further notice kind of like Kafka
>>631765 He is in a self discovering journey and Welt decided to adopt him but the issue will mainly be where will Hoyo find a room to fit another short episode about the culmination of said journey. I can see them just saying "Now that Amphoreus people are real human beans they need someone that listen to their struggles and provides them order and harmony so they can strive in this universe" and we just drop him there without a good pay off.
>>631777 You don't need a DPS for every element, by Dirichlet's principle if you have coverage for 5/7 elements you can face any enemies with 3 weaknesses and be on element
Are any of you gonna be skipping the 3.4 story or are you guys just gonna go through it like normal
>>631811 I'm going to mash through like normal because I read faster than they are saying it. Also I don't play with sound so the dialogue is meaningless to me. But I'll only pay so much attention.
>>631811 I never skip through main story unless it gets REALLY bad... Actually I did exactly that yesterday because I desperately needed stellar jimmies for the kot, but I'm later going to go through what I skipped on a recording.
>>631809 I just use HIM
>>631811 I'm not skipping it.

>>631789 I will enjoy having my own Aven even if Terravox makes him look like a joke and the enviroment gets bad for his shields because playing with the characters I love is the my only way to enjoy games even if the characters are sometimes bricks. >>631811 It's super flawed but I enjoy Amphoreus(gotta admit that the only HSR stories that I found boring and infuriating were both Luka's companion mission and wardance 2) enough and 3.4 actually has me really hyped but I would be lying if at the same time I don't admit that I fear this being the turning point because it could end in Hoyo wanking their beloved Elysia and ruin my long awaited March content just because they cannot help themselves when it comes to their pink jesus.
>>631811 3.3 and the myriad trailer got me hooked i'll be reading
>>631828 If they don't change Cerydra I'll be very tempted to pump all the pulls I can get after Hysilens into her, Anaxa Sunday Cerydra is looking to be one of the most fun things in the game. >>631832 >my wind/fire coverage is also falling off Damn, if only there was a team that covers multiple of those elements.
>>631852 ironically enough I have those dotbricks, we'll see how usable they are soonTM
>>631843 Don't get me wrong I roll primarily for characters I enjoy, I would never prevent someone from rolling a character they like. This and my extreme lazyness has made endgame a tad annoying at times but missing out of a pittance of jade is really nothing to be concerned about. I hope Diamond is playable someday, it'd be funny to go with double Preservation. Since that seems to be the Emanator theme they're going with

game update is up btw
>>631865 Doesn't sound that bad, if anything Cerydra's trace would make speedtuning way easier because getting Anaxa to 134 speed is a huge pain in the ass usually
>>631862 At least for now Castorice and my hyper carry Anaxa have been enough for endgame minus MoC floor 12 because I still need better relics. I may consider rolling a bricked Phainon if there is no Aventurine next patch and the 3.4 story sells him well enough since I'm at 30K jades but depends on the story and/or Aventurine coming back.
>>631880 I run mine on Eagle because reasons. Also because I hate farming relics.
>>631811 I'm enjoying the story a lot and have been avoiding spoilers about it. I'm going to read through it tomorrow because the update is 11pm my time and hopefully discuss it with other anons here that also enjoy the story. It's very nice to have a thread of people that also enjoy the game and want to discuss it instead of the shithole that cuckchan turned into so I am massively grateful to the BO and site owner for giving me this.

>>631981 Considering Hysilens and Cerydra are around, I'm assuming we're going to be in a new loop and I don't really care for that.
>>631993 They might make the new loop interesting though or maybe they'll do a good job of selling new characters. I can see myself getting hooked if it's like one of those VNs where the common route changes after you've finished one heroine route and finding the differences or new things ends up being fun. I don't know, I want to keep an open mind.

>>631910 I have been so busy lately that I didn't get to join the 3.3 dicussion here despite loving the patch so I'll try to post here about 3.4 after finishing it since it seems some of my theories are on track even if I avoid getting spoiled. Posting about 3.4 in cuckchan will probably be specially obnoxious since this is mainly Phainon's patch so the wormschizos will be rampant.
>>632006 Also, TB. Dan and March existing in this new loop should throw a wrench at it so if they achieve a happy ending without anyone dying horribly in the new loop then I'll be pretty happy too.
>>631993 I don't know why people in general hates it when the story set things up. People weren't so keen on the first 2 patches either, but a good set up means a good pay off.
Future predictions. A YouTuber changed my mind and now I also agree that amphoreas isn't an infinite loops but actually two infinite loops one with day characters like the one we know right now and another one with night characters like polux, gnaus and cerces, while Phainon is the only one in common between all cycles. Lygus is either the conductor/representative of iron tomb, and Phainon isn't actually an emanator but a copy of nanonk that was made by both fuli and nous which somehow created a khaslana relating both welt, Acheron home planet and hi3 to the star rail verse for once and for all, or maybe he's just an experiment to see if you can replicate an aeon. We're staying in amphoreas and we will be breaking the cycle by pressing replay with our time powers instead of reset and mem will digimon evolve into dark March bringing her down to us while inserting ourselves into the story. The number of cycles have been extremely clear from Phainon trailer and we will fight flame reaver first in tomorrow's story and we will go back in time randomly to Phainon's village. 3.5 will be a calm first half where we will learn about the entire history of amphoreas and probably the previous cycles too because I get the feeling like cerydra somehow can also contact the day and night versions of herself so she's like a budget kephale but in the end lygus will probably try to stop us and interfere for once ending on a cliffhanger.
>>632035 I need to see how 3.4 ends before assuming that 3.5 will be a let down/filler. My only complain is that I wanted Cerydra to be a harmony hag so bad but besides that like I mentioned before my only worry is hoyo going full muh Elysia.
>>632050 If Amphoreus was a bingo then Elysia shilling would be a free space. It's unavoidable.
>>632053 For sure but I want them to have some self control and let March have her moment before we go full pink jesus shilling.
Also, I genuinely can't believe that Silvie of all people will save my Acheron, few patches ago during JQ last days, I was coping with a bunch of you guys about how horrendous it is to play e0s0 Acheron and we basically decided that she wasn't a complete brick because you can use her every week in divergent universe speed running. Although I should be thankful for the before the beginners luck that gave me E2 silver wolf when I was trying to get serval to defeat svarog boss in the story. (It was years ago and early game really wants you to have aoe)
>>632058 I assume March/Dan will have their own patch before they go full Elysia shill. Wonder who's going to run with her though.
>>632063 Most likely March and Cyrene will probably make female only teams viable in general.
>>632076 I really really hope March works with Cerydra so I can run something like March/Cerydra/Cyrene/Sustain
I forgot to ask you guys, I've been slacking on the other games so I kinda did both mockingbird and silver Anby quest in zzz before doing this patch's quest. And did hoyo become more edgy or at least more liberal with their violence and dark elements recently? If you haven't played zzz you could see it in this patch's with everything like sky people racism, ethnic cleansing, that memory where someone slit the throat of that old believer, Seliose being a kinda of mix race terrorist in point of view of her people and her killing basically everyone by throwing them into lava/boiling gold instead of one chicken woman who knew how to get herself out. These types of stuff were always there but they usually leave it to side quests, genshin is notorious for this too because the readables and unvoiced quests are kinda fucked up but the archon quests are peak shonen safe level stuff.
I don't even know when to pull for Seiba if in 3.4 it's Sunday, then saving for Hysilens, then maybe Cerydra, but more imporantly March, then Cyrene's probably also gonna be good, and Constance is sexo.

>>632102 Have done that one but the people I know told me that Spoiler alert I suppose Basically she's from another universe, everyone there died horribly, she survived in some side dimension living alone for thousands years?

>>632089 All HOYO games have dark elements (in addition to lighthearted stuff), people just forget. It's not a "recent" thing. It's a constant thing.
>>632089 Hoyo games have always been like this
>>632119 Mibibi one is a verbal treat her mother's death and the implications from her own trailer could be considered dark, in the main story she was basically the cool swordsman trope but autistic.
>>632117 You can do it like This Two asterisks on either side if I fucked that up
>>632108 This looks like seibah but bad
>>632106 Maybe they can slot Cipher in? Had to skip her but she seems like a nice generalist despite the doomposting. My Hyacine is also glued to my Castorice or Anaxa if I feel like using them together for some DU runs.
>>632126 I know, and I said that but they tend to keep the main story light hearted and safe, take natlan's and penacony's ending. Both were straight up, BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF FRIENDS, A BETTER TOMORROW AND HOPE, while if you did the clockie missions you saw another side of penacony. Natlan had the death count thing in the last battle but I think it was underutilized honestly. >>632121 Thanks
>>631825 Iirc they're implementing story recaps this patch. Main story and side quests so you can just reread through there
>>632134 I had to skip Cipher too. I wanted to save jades to pick up Cerydra in 3.5 Depending on Luck and if Cyrene keeps her current model or not, I might go for E2 on her too.
After thinking about it, xilonen's quest with that psycho ex mother was also missed up so they maybe started introducing their dark elements slowly going from readables, to side quests and characters missions to the main story.
>>632149 Understandable but not that bad since they are doing reruns for Amphoreus banners quite fast. Hope your Cerydra and March pulls go great.
>>632166 If they made cerydra run alongside Anaxagoras that would be the funniest thing ever I saw in another place someone complaining that Phainon can only get two meteorites with her when she's supposed to be his JQ to Acheron while she's suit perfect for Anaxa in literally everything down to her speed buff.

If anything i wished could skip all the miserywank of the previous patches to get to the simulation break/lord ravager kino we will be getting now.
>>632237 I just hope all of that buildup is worth it at the end of the day. Right now it just feels like they dragged it because they needed to sell characters when they could've just condensed it down into a patch or two
>>632237 Is it really miserywank? I always knew they were coming back so I never thought of the deaths as sad I guess penacony prepared me because that region had a ton of fake deaths so I'm used to it already and was never sad or perceived it as sad since we've known they'll bring them back and achieve a happy ending.
>>632247 >Right now it just feels like they dragged it because they needed to sell characters when they could've just condensed it down into a patch or two God no that's horrible I HATED how hoyo always did that meme of 2 patches of story and 6 of filler so I'm really happy they're taking their time to tell a story instead of condensing story to 3 patches and the rest of the version is filler patches.
>>632237 I don't think it's really misery wank since none of them really suffered on screen. It felt more like long goodbyes instead. I think only Ciper and Aglae were the only sad ones.
>>632252 >I always knew they were coming back so I never thought of the deaths as sad Yes, that's what made it bad. Like they want to sell a tragedy when you know none of it will stick. So you can't even fully buy into it.
>>632266 But genuinely, 3.0 to 3.3 felt incredibly dragged out, which makes knowing that it'll all fucking reset even worse. But maybe that's the point you know, maybe they want us to FEEL like phainon on how tedious and pointless the cycles made HIM feel! SHAOJI I KNEEL!!!!!!!

(366.45 KB 881x1448 I knew all along.jpg)

>>632289 I don't know how you feel that way when each patch had us collect at least 1 coreflame for the overarching Amphoreus plot, showing the history/lore of Amphoreus, showing us the characters story/backstory, and tidbits for Aeon lore.
>>632289 Dragged out how? Every character got their arc, every character got their story and they took their time to tell everyone's story. MUCH better than >Hey here's firefly, she's your new wife now please roll Still annoyed how they speedran firefly's life story in like 2 hours for 2.0 and expected me to feel sad or attached to her. Definitely hope they keep this story format going forward or make even longer stories because the ones that don't want to read can simply skip so there's no need to pander to them anymore.
>>632289 It probably wouldn’t be so bad if it wasn’t painfully obvious that everything is a simulation and the heirs don’t actually exist. The buildup just wasn’t good because nothing actually mattered outside the Herta segments and you and Dan crashing down on the planet
>>632403 The heirs can still exist, scepters have powers beyond comprehension and can even rewrite reality so Amphoreus can become a real planet after everything is done and solved after everything is done. It would be REAL shitty if they decided to shelve all the Amphoreus Characters forever after this planet is done and I have to suffer penaconys cast forever but they've been good about story and I want to put my trust in them.
>>632350 3.3 is actually a good showcase of what i really disliked about the way amphoreus does things (though to be fair its been a problem from before ampho). In the beginning they showed that we would be going on a kind of escapade with cipher, which i was looking forward to actually because she's one of the only ampho characters i liked, only to rugpull us to deal with some other bullshit and then tell us her backstory through disembodied flashbacks??? But in contrast I thought hyacine had one of the better arcs despite me not caring for her because we actually got to go with her on her journey throughout the sky temple, fight her trials, and as the TB see her ascension. The problem with ampho and hsr for awhile now is that there's too much of the way cipher's story is told and not enough of hyacine's.
>>632415 I wish we saw the Sigga again
>>632413 Also, how can you think "nothing we did mattered" when TB and Dan's presence is what changes everything?? Crazy how someone can actually think this like did you actually read the story?
>>632433 No, not nothing we did. Obviously we're the spanner in the works. Nothing what the heirs do matter. We've just been dragging out their "tragic" last moments.
>>632430 Liked Mydei and Anaxa as male characters much more than Sunday and Aventurine so I definitely don't miss them at all. Anaxa is like ratio but much better and Mydei's backstory about how the son of Gorgo will be crowned in blood was pretty cool too.
>>632421 I honestly think the patch story isn't long enough. The writers got too ambitious in trying to fit everything in half a 4 patches with this many characters and moving parts. The Aglaea/Elder Council subplot pretty much got a couple scenes each patch and then it got sandwiched into Anaxa's portion of the story. Cipher's story got told in flashbacks because Mem wasn't there to time window us and walk us through what happened. Cipher's story really should have had a patch to herself, honestly each character should have an entire patch to themselves.

>>632440 I take your point although I should rephrase in the sense that I wish we saw more of the Stonehearts including the Sigga. Sunday is a bit toothless now since they inverted his character basically. Ratio being an unapologetic asshole can be entertaining to me under the right circumstances as well but in general I wouldn't say I'm particularly enthusiastic about most of the cast even those I find can be fun in moderation. In fact, I'd say I enjoy the idea of the characters more than their depiction in general, for instance Mydei has an interesting contrast going on but he's basically never going to move past that generic concept which is an issue in general for the characters and that mostly feels to me like Amphoreus' cast will end up being in their own bubble that interact with nobody and nothing. Whereas at least the IPC should from time to time pop their heads again to play their usual stand up routine. But then again, maybe that makes the current cast somewhat more well rounded because they have to have enough going on to at least make people care about them in their current state of playing their role then fucking off into the aether. Inasmuch as it's possible to really care about them at all.
>>632470 They should really use the second half of the patch cycle to really add some story beats. The second half of the patches this cycle have been dreadfully bad with no content
>>632470 You know what. I can respect this take. I do kinda would rather they trim the fat and get to the parts I care about (ie the greater Aeons/faction war) but if they want to push this miserywank they should really crank it up. Make me really feel it. Make it like 4 patches of getting to really get to know everyone as friends and then brutally chopping them off in one fell swoop. This turn by turn "Oh your on the featured banner so you're next" systematic way doesn't really do it for me.
>>632470 They could've easily done that if they gave us events where the second half character gets more development so they don't have to fit everything in during the story
>>632491 Character stories being integrated in the main plot means you can't really get that. Or you get some characterization like Phainon in event that is essentially a scratch card
>>632488 It's not meant to be misery porn though It's a parallel to Elysian Realm and the Flame Chasing MOTHS We knew the flame chasers died 50k years ago, we knew they're sims, we knew nothing they do or happens will change everything since it's a flashback to the past but it was still HI3s most popular story arc. The difference is that they can still do things with Amphoreus or end it in a way where the planet and the characters can come back and do things where the 13 flame chasers died 50k years before the story even started and everything was just one big flashback basically.
>>632516 Nigga i don't care about muh parallels to HI3. When you pull that out in just assuming it's cope at that point. I want a good HSR story. I don't need a retell of HI3.
>>632440 Sigga is one of my favourite characters in the game, but Sunday had a sort of progression. Up until 2.1 I liked him, he felt like the "scheming priest" type and I enjoy that. Then 2.2 made me want to disembowel him and stuff his insides with charmony doves from how much I hated the patch. Then he lost his soul and after a few months have passed since I finished Penacony I mostly just feel indifferent to him, disappointed his presence on the AE has amounted to nothing as of now. It'd be cool if he used his charm to smooth talk amphoreans into cooperation or something, but then again he doesn't seem to have that personality anymore.
>>632477 >Sunday is a bit toothless now since they inverted his character basically. They could always make him a stoic and have him crack after a while
>>632521 But..It's good? I did mention it's HI3s most popular arc and China loved it and they're loving Amphoreus too. If they don't fuck up Elysia's patch or story then that should be a huge patch too since she has a big fanbase. All the negativity I've seen is in the English communities where it feels like they're trying too hard to find fault with the story or expecting some literary masterpiece on a gacha for some reason. So far it's been an improvement over penacony, It's been enjoyable to read, the characters are likeable and varied enough to have something for everyone, it's been fun to follow because the story spans the entire version instead of being condensed into 3 patches so I can consider it as good?
>>632535 I wouldn't want him to crack per se but maybe they could have him dip a little more into pointed commentary and playing mind games. I'd say there's potential for him to bounce off the rest of the AE between cultured discussion with Himeko, maybe slightly needing it out with Welt and engaging some morality discussions as well. Or joining forces with Dan over the March and TB general antics if from a different angle. He used to be a schemer, a people's leader and work in entertainment, there's technically a lot of him to go around.
>>632548 You can think it's good, I'm not stopping you, but all I'm saying is that when your defense is >its like this thing i really like and you only hate it because you don't like this other thing I'll be like >Ok I already have my reasons as to why I dislike it. Didn't have anything to do with HI3.
>>632559 Also I meant nerding it out with Welt. Among other issues with my post.

I'd rather they drag the story out for too long than a repeat of Penacony where a bunch of shit got off-screened or rushed and half the characters do nothing because they only had like 3 patches for the whole thing. I'm still expecting that they're going to fuck up the ending when they have to finally wrap all this shit up before 3.8.

>>632832 None of the characters I want or use need him so he's still a brick for me Aiming for the full female both sides dream team
>>632832 Naw he's still a brick who's BiS for nobody and basically only exists to orbit his sister which is funny when they're supposed to not see each other anymore
Seiba dream ain't looking so good bros... At least Archer will have his quantum brats
>>632832 That's how it was in 2.x, barely anyone who can be used as a hypercarry. In 3.x the only DPS so far that aren't hypercarry are Therta and Casorice (Hysilens will be another one) and they both can still use him. Also Sunday isn't an ATK buffer so HP scalers who're also having a resurgence can benefit from his buffs more than other AA supports
>>632861 The issue is that people tried to push Sunday as the BiS remembrance support and that he'd be everyone's best but he ended up only BiS for Aglaea (and Phainon I guess) since everyone else has either alternatives or straight up better options.
So what's the best relic set for Jingliu now, again?
>>632873 Still Scholar or go for the Quantum set
>>632870 As I recall people mostly said that because remembrance was around the corner and then Aglaea showed up with her enormous energy requirements but realistically the reaction was wait and see. Followed by much "you need him" shitposting since it made people mad.

Finished the story, would say that the first half is kind of slow and boring, with all the theoretical talking and going through Phainon's past, but the next section was actually pretty entertaining with how each loop went. Also kind of explains how the trio is essentially saving Amphorous. The animations were well timed too and actually helped to excite me. Overall, 8/10. It was a good send off for the first arc. They really do need to improve the animations for conversations though.

Am I too far gone or does it feel like Fate is supposed to be the one getting the spotlight this update? Feels like only 1 thing happened to move the story forward and then it was over
>>634244 I feel like every patch is like tons of waffling and then one more step forward on the plot. Haven't started yet because I don't have the mental energy to sit through an Amphoreus story. Will get to it on the weekend.
>>634244 It was a pretty short patch compared to the previous ones. Maybe they just don't have a lot left to tell considering the story ends in 3.7
I haven't followed the Myriad Celestia videos, but are the ones released in line with the in-game plot at least timeline-wise? Because my understanding based on the new story patch is that Irontomb isn't just being imprisoned in Amphoreus, it's being made. The leftover Emperor's Sceptre is being made to evolve by Lycurgus into a Lord Ravager against Erudition by repeatedly simulating the Flame-Chase Journey. The most recent Myriad Celeste trailer and the informational images make it seem like Irontomb has been around for a while now. Also it's interesting to me how Irontomb's silhouette in the divinations look slightly like Phainon's form. >>634244 To be fair, that one thing that happened is pretty big. Though it still feels like a letdown that it ended where it did. I'm not interested in Phainon so it felt a bit like a slog to read through considering he's the central character, but I like Cyrene so that balances it out.
>>634303 The character specific ones tell a backstory but the overall lore ones like the Aeon ones or the IPC ones would be things in the past.
>>634303 It is pretty big but I guess it feels like less because more 3/4ths of it is moody phainon flashbacks of exactly what you'd expect but the voice acting is pretty kino through it at least Not invested in Phainon either really so that doesn't help but the intense Cyrene pandering does help ease the pain for me too a bit

>>634421 I'll admit I was slightly impressed when Phainon pointed out that Lygus just kept repeating the same line to him for the 33 million cycles and expecting him to change
>>634432 >turns out it wasn't the indomitable human spirit but the power of contrarianism which kept Phainon sane
What's better? >cope cone on Sunday, Bronya cone on Bronya >cope cone on Bronya, Bronya cone on Sunday
>>634444 >indomitable human spirit Because apparently they're simulations of humans, not actual live humans. And how he keeps his pants on even after turning into a literal humanoid flame. That said, I wonder how exactly would they explain Cyrene and Phainon turning into actual meat-and-flesh humans when this is all over since apparently they're just simulations inside Irontomb. My current guess is Aedes Elysiae is the name of the planet Irontomb is on which is why it's considered "Outworld" and every single person on Amphoreus is based on an actual person from the actual planet, but there's nothing in the readables that suggests that so far. Or since the Remembrance is involved, everyone will be turned into Memetic Entities like Black Swan so they can live out their lives as actual beings.

Mem sex stocks are through the roof btw
>>634503 they're not just digital simulations. 3.4 tells us that amphoreus is built on data and memoria. which would make it's denizens memetic entities. It's possible for memetic entities to exist in real space, look at black swan, for example. As for how memetic entities gain a physical form well, we've yet to see it for cyrene, but seeing BS just doing it by being a pathstrider of remembrance and phainon who is just surging with pure destruction path energy that he angrily makes himself real enough that he can fight another lord ravager, it might have something to do with path energy

How big is the gap between S5 MoC cone Sunday, S1 Bronyacone Sunday and S1 Sunday? Kinda wish I topped up a couple of packs during anni, could get the kot and a copecone for Sunday...
Wait a minute this isn't character buff shilling it's just Hyacine and Tribbie shilling They really gave Jingliu a buff just to have a healer shit on her still?
>>634995 >Hyacine and Tribbie shilling that's the entire game now
This was painful
Friends, I think those Phainon mains on reddit and YouTube were right all along about their doom posting, my deliverer ain't delivering.
I don't know if that 28% DMG difference from his sig or maybe that next MOC buff blinded me, or maybe is just a bitch because I waited for today to clear it but either way. Damn, that was a painful experience.
In addition I couldn't do sustainless because those fuckers hit hard.

>>635143 I tried dude, I've been retrying for the last two hours, I've did tribbie, tingyun, robin speed tuned to the t for maximum efficiency only for phainon to not deal enough, exit his stance and everyone else gets insta killed by freaking hoolay
My Sunday died then revived by cas only to get killed again by hooly more than once my Sunday has officially joined the abundance for my abuse.

>>635187 Dude, I've been following Chevy for the last month, I've seen everything he posted. It's really demoralizing, but at least I cleared, I'll keep farming in the mines hoping to get some op build to salvage him while farming for saber. It is the fate of the dawn to be after the night.

Yeah, this patch was extremely fun to read through. I'm not a big fan of angstsloppa but all the suffering really built Phainon's character. The Nous gang is easily my favourite group in the game now. The presentation and narrative was also leagues above anything since like Penacony, but they still have to massively improve the camera angles during cutscenes (and also stop being lazy and use more animations than the usual 3 recycled emotes). Fantastic music too, I literally soyfaced when Nanook's silhouette appeared in that one cutscene with the Dune-like rhythmic vocals. Overall a great closure to the first act, what a wild ride. Also hopium but Cassie's program is still active so confirmed for being alive at the end of Amphoreus???????????

>>635397 They've been pretty loose with two models characters recently, who knows she could have more than one model like fire fly and sam to represent her time/remembrance powers, like that one girl from Wuwa.

Normally I'd dismiss this as schizo theories but I suffered through HI3 like Phainon suffered through the cycles so I can't dismiss it as the schizophrenia of some random leaker. Gonna put my thoughts on the story on a separate post.

As for the story itself, it felt really short? The other patches basically took me all day to read but this one was like just a small epilogue that detailed the end of the Flame Chasing journey, Phainon's arc and Cyrene's introduction. Mem sex makes up for it though, she was great through all of it. I never thought I wanted a smaller Elysia until now but I need this now and I hope the cruel Honkai devs can grant me this instead of giving me hope only to take it all away in the end like they always did back in that game. Also, I was surprised that Phainon got his own song too? Hyacine's was way better but I didn't expect Phainon to get one for himself too. Patch also confirms the coreflames and paths for March and Dan in the "So I've Written" chapters so I guess this was the drip before the drip and we're just waiting the official announcement now. >>635613 Don't worry, Tribbie will be needed with her too~ Good thing the best support of Amphoreus ended up as a cute little girl instead of some male nobody wanted or rolled for right?
>>635632 i think its short because we also have the fate story coming up but i still liked it a lot yeah that one new mysterious book is even using mitsukis voice so its pretty much confirmed
>>635285 Yes m'lady.
Tribbie would have been cute as a next model up in size
>>635645 She's perfect as is, we already have too many Maid/Hag characters in the game so I'm glad that the first loli character ended up as strong and overpowered as she did. >>635641 I assume they didn't want the climax/ending of Amphoreus outshine the collab or harm collab sales? So we just got the final flame chaser arc and a pause before the story moves to it's new stage. Even without leaks or leaker knowledge, it's pretty clear that the schedule will be something like 3.5 - Cerydra & Hysilens 3.6 - March & Dan 3.7 - Cyrene and someone. Maybe just Cyrene and reruns? 3.8 - Setup for next region
>>635632 Starting a melty about muh males instantly because someone disagreed with you about character designs is pathetic. >Tribbie will be needed with her too~ Won't even be in Rice's best team once Cyrene and March are out. And while we're at it, playable Tribios would be a massive upgrade too.
>>635685 Big headed potatoes look deformed, everyone gushes over loli Elysia for a reason
>>635687 I was merely stating my opinion on how I'm glad that the best support of Amphoreus ended up an Amphoreus character and not some forgotten character from the previous region. Just like you have your opinion that you have so kindly shared with me, I have mines too. Also, March is going to be a DPS character. The team will be more along the lines of March (DPS) / Cerydra (Girl) / Cyrene (Girl) / Sustain. Highly likely the Sustain ends up as Dan (Preservation) so that means there's no space for characters from other regions. Sure would be a shame if someone went and backpulled for old and outdated characters right?

>>635725 arent you forgetting someone?
>>635596 Most of those were still playable at least. Would be weird to show a model for so long if they wont actually use it, if she does get another form I think it will be some transformation gimmick.
>>635740 Hyacine's locked up on the Castorice team. The final 2 part team would be something like Castorice / Tribbie / Hyacine / RMC March / Cerydra / Cyrene / Sustain Dan's most likely going to be tailor made for March due to the entire "Trailblazer buddies" thing but if I'm honest with you, I'll likely just slap Huohuo there and call it a day for a full female team. >>635741 Yeah, no matter how you see it, it's a retarded decision to tease the current Cyrene model as early as 3.0 then bait and switch with a new model. It's why I'm torn between the logical side that says that it's simply a retarded decision to tease a model and a character for the better part of a year then change it to something else but there's also the traumatized side that suffered HI3 trampling over it's players and fanbases with design changes or their several bait and switch plot twists so I can't completely dismiss the leak as a schizo theory. Surely they would have learned that nobody liked it when they did it in HI3 and that it ended terribly when they did so, right?
SW is so fun in this
>>635725 If leakfags are to be believed, March will play in a full Remembrance team with Rice, whose best sustain is Cinny, and the last slot would be the premium RMC replacement Cyrene. My guess is that it'll be a dynamic like with Anaxa and Herta, where her primary role will be as a sub-DPS to futureproof an older DPS but she'll also work as a main DPS.
>>635773 *all remembrance
Now that the dust is settled how good is Kebin? t0 must roll?
I don't feel so good bros
>>635790 e2 or bust from what i have heard
>>635772 >>635773 I mean yeah, Hyacine is currently our best sustain. But we only have one Hyacine and Castorice suffers a performance loss without her so I assume Terravox will be tailored for March to address this problem since it's not like Hyacine can clone herself. Wish less characters stole supports because it sucks when every team you want to make steals supports from the other so you end up with one premium team and one cope team.

I give up, hoolay is not just tanky but ridiculously strong, I've been farming rng for the last hour and this is the closest I get. Two Phainon ults and hoolay kicked my ass right after, Robin safety net only works after the first ult and I've only gotten this far because early on the enemies targeted Phainon more. I guess that remaining 30% hp is telling me to go all in on his sig but I rather not to be frank In conclusion, he seems fun and cool but he's only the latter. The consensus from the beta was correct, he's fire fly 2.0 you either focus on him for the rest of this year going E2 s1 with his supports or you don't even bother.

Although him losing his shirt, cutting his own wing and pulling a Gurren Lagann was pretty awesome.
>>635877 >>635956 Did you get his cone and good relics for him? I thought he was supposed to be good at E0S1. The story made me like Phainon since his arc and story was cool but I don't really like his supports and HSR is a team game where they want to sell you whole teams rather than just one character.
Bros, crazy idea but what if, like I got really lucky with Saber and instead of giving the king her crown I somehow found myself pulling on the wrong LC banner but on a destruction light con nonetheless, I mean who doesn't love base speed, right?

>>635877 Wait you're saying E0S0 Phainon can't even beat the current MoC with those supports?
>>636000 Unfortunately yes. And I even counted the action value to be able to get 4 turns before getting to hoolay. Maybe the next moc will salvage him until cerydra.

>>636013 Hmmm maybe that anon just has shit relics?
>>635997 Just watched a guide video on him, seems that you're right? The guys recommend investing into E2 over S1 since it's a massive damage increase. Damn, they really made him into male Firefly.
>>636013 His rolles are better than mine he must've been farming since the craven got released, his balance between atk and crit ratio is honestly impressive even my Anaxa barely has that much crit DMG. I don't have bronya's sig and tingyun with s5 DDD works really well for the clutch but I'm certain he too been fishing for RNG, mem presence gives you more opportunities but you will suffer from sp shortage after the first one when you'll try to keep her alive for the true DMG buff to stay on Phainon. It's possible after all but still painful to achieve.

Okay I finished it, really fucking good and pure kino. It was shorter than usual, but still finished the entire thing in a day. Actually got mad when it ended, because I wanted more. Kek can't believe TB made things worse, but it also represents trailblazing since you need to let go of the current situation to walk towards a new path. Liked the part with March, didn't realize I missed her that much and actually laughed when they directly said how similar March is to Cyrene. Was a bit confusing at the first cycle since you didn't know it was Phainon reliving his memories. But they actually did the suffering right with him slowly breaking down over the cycles. Plus the JP VA was amazing. Probably my favorite story patch. >>634303 >The most recent Myriad Celeste trailer and the informational images make it seem like Irontomb has been around for a while now. It does reveal it, but it is in side content you get at the end. δ-me13.exe has the development logs of Irontomb, and it says that copies the destruction equation were deployed at various times to test it. IPC detected that and named it Irontomb, which fits with the infographic saying they never found the ravager. The real Irontomb is still stuck on Amphoreus, and at 99% development due to the actions of Phainon and Cyrene. >>634660 Also Lygus in the first cycle directly said that Phainon could become real if they broke out. And it wouldn't surprise me that the inside of Amphoreus is probably just fully real and made with memoria. BS said it was the garden's wet dream, Mem said everything was made of memories, TB and Dan were able to enter, TB's form needed to be stabilized which could be done with memories. Plus I think Herta said the scepter had the power to manipulate matter. Using memoria to create memetic entities makes for a more realistic simulation.
How worth it is E0 Tribbie? I think it's highly unlikely I could get E1.
>>636238 >TB made things worse wait, did we? Wasn't the whole endless flame-chase a gambit to stall for time for an external factor to show up and throw a wrench in irontomb's extrapolation by getting another aeon outside of nanook to gaze at amphoreus? Which was exactly what we did with fuli. That said I had just finished the story nyself and havent yet read the readables so i may have missed something
So all these Amphoreus characters / landscapes are just AI scripts and 3d models running in an sandboxed environment in a laptop on Amphoreus right? Like a playthrough in a vidyagame right? Amphoreus ACTUAL by the sounds of things is more like a hidden space munitions factory with Lygus trying to make the next perfect AI software to guide their blacktide drone munitions or whatever. Am I getting this right?
>>636271 Just okay, but if you can, get her E1 in the next rerun
>>636275 Yeah TB is the true deliverer that is meant to bring the true dawn that was prophecized. But the immediate effect was that TB was used by Lygus to break the cycle, since TB was a pathstrider of destruction. That is why Lygus explains everything to TB and involves TB into the immersive theater, all part of his plan to use TB's destruction to influence Phainon's. So while the end effect will be positive thanks to Phainon and Cyrene, it did break the stable cycle that kept Irontomb trapped forever. And since Phainon still broke the cycle and didn't go back in time, Irontomb will probably break free if TB fails in the new cycle.
I need to fuck Cyrene so fucking bad. The devs need to keep her current design, the big coat drooping low and the sundress combo is too sexy..
1 and I coin flip for Tribbie e1 2 and I save the coinflip for Saber 1d2 = 2

How are Kafka and SW's new eidolons? I already have E1 of both Kafka and SW, are their E2s worth grabbing now?
>>636478 kafker was alright with the AS buff, but outside of that the performance was meddling. SW didn't really save ACK either.

Talking about teams, how many teams do you people have? The only team that feels good for me is my top team with Castorice since it feels like I can bulldoze all content with it easily while the other 3 feel like hard copium because I'm missing important characters, cones or eidolons.
>>636680 I have all 4 you have minus fofo. the only one that feels good in 2025 is cassy. other ones are starting to fade into the "ohhh, if it weren't for cassy hardcarrying the first side...." category
>>636688 >other ones are starting to fade into the "ohhh, if it weren't for cassy hardcarrying the first side...." category Mines aren't starting, mines are solidly in there. If Castorice wasn't brainlessly 0-cycling first side then I probably would be struggling for the full star clears.
>>636680 I have: Kafka + Swan + SW/Acheron/Cipher + Fofo Firefly + Fugue + Ruan Mei + Gallagher THE HERTA + Herta + RMC + Fofo Yunli + March 7 + RMC/Cipher/SW + Fofo
>>636680 These are the only ones I use these days.

>>636693 >mines are solidly in there heh, same, and some of them have varying degree of eidolons. very ::sadge::
>>636710 I have signatures and eilodons of a good chunk of them so i can still clear it + i know my biulds and rotations could be better so i am comfy
>>636723 The sadder one for me is the Firefly one. Break felt so good on Firefly release but I didn't get Lingsha, E1 Fugue or cones for anyone on her team so now running it feels like absolute pain. Idk if Fugue E1/Lingsha could salvage it or maybe I just have to hope for a future break character to pick her up. Alternatively, I could just forget about it and bet on a new DPS like the new shiny M7 instead of sunk costing more into Firefly. >>636752 >>636718 Yeah, it feels like this is the approach. Get one complete character with their Lightcones and maybe QoL eidolon for supports and ignore everything that doesn't fit my team. I regret my Penacony rolls a lot but I've been happy about my Amphoreus choices.
>>636767 I've got all the break characters most of them with eidolons/lightcones and some shit they just get completely walled by now Like I can't get past the first phase of that new weekly boss with an e2s1 Firefly, e2 Ruan Mei, and e1 Lingsha team On older content I can just auto everything though
>>636795 Yeah, they really killed off Firefly for some reason. Maybe the prophecized 3rd death was her death in the meta because she and Boothill might have been the biggest losers of Penacony.

RM/Robin Fofo (noone feels good in endgame without BS, but I've cleared a lot of story content with Guinny, Asta or even HMC) Anaxa Bronya Robin Fofo/Sigga (feels atrocious with E0S0 Bronya, but it's okay in MoC11) Boothill Bronya Foog Gallagher Everyone is E0S0 except E1 Topaz. Agreed that the game is Honkai Support Rail, but I disagree anyone needs cones or eidolons, the only thing I feel like I'm missing without vertical investment is that I can't battery Blade with Cinny's cone but I don't even use him.
>>636693 As long as Castorice clears one side in 3 or 4 cycles, I can use a decent team with good mechanics match up to clear the other side. I don't roll for cones, I don't roll eidolons, and I don't hardcore speed tune either.
Surely someone can use this, right? Haha...

>>636871 I shouldn't have leveled these. Now I'll just have to be mad that I have perfect relics I'll never use.
>>636871 God piece for Yunli when devs release a support that forces your DPS into dueling the enemy
>>636838 >Everyone is E0S0 except E1 Topaz. Agreed that the game is Honkai Support Rail, but I disagree anyone needs cones or eidolons, Wouldn't you really want Castorice's Light cone at least? Remembrance doesn't have much in the way of options and she really benefits from it so I'd definitely argue that you should grab it if you're going to use her as your main carry.
>>636884 Yeah, I'll save it for that. I do love my Yunli. I even already finished farming my new DoT sets, and I have a physical and ATK% one for Hyselinesses if I decide to roll for her.
still a ways to go....
>Try MoC12 because I saw anon struggling with it >6 cycles firefly - 1 cycle Castorice Surely Archer will save us right? >Go back to the bug and hit it with Castorice >1 cycle on first try that could have been 0 because I was only off by 1% for the 0-cycle Man, I really need a new damage dealer.
>>637018 You have 10 whole cycles bro...
>>636896 >Wouldn't you want Castorice's Light cone at least? I think at the current point she's fine with both Bailucone and Sweat now cry less, she'll also get boosted by March, Cyrene, Cipher or someone from the far future, plus it's the kind of cone that is absolutely useless on any other character. If I were to somehow get such a surplus of pulls that I can afford to roll everyone I want and still have some to spare on cones, I'd probably go for Feixiao's cone because I love Feixiao, it's a great boost to her, it works on other Hunt characters and... well just look at it.

Wish the offer extended to characters in the next version too because I'm saving for Cerydra so I can continue following the Harmony Rail.

>>637072 >Hunt character cruising
>>637072 you can get his cone in 3.6 since his banner is staying up for a long time, that's my plan and i also plan to go for Cerydra and she is quite a good option for archer. >>636680 mainly running 3 teams, my break team, Herta, Castorice.
>>637089 How do you deal with the issue of Herta and Casto both wanting Tribbie?
>>637098 i should of got cipher to fix this issue but i ran out of pulls. last MOC i was able to cope with running double healer for Castorice to get a 1 cycle clear, ruan mei has also been a decent for Castorice.
>>637110 I hear buffed Silver Wolf might be a good replacement too. I wanted to get Herta myself to solve my DPS problem but I ran out of rolls before the banner ended.

>rewatching Phainon's song I know it has the same singer as lighter's ep but the art style reminded me of Netflix DMC
>>637118 im also going to go for cedyra atm. if i want to run cast or herta for one side i can use a sparkle+cedyra archer team on the other side or annaxa
I could be talking out of my ass but I liked how Phainon fought early on with his sword while keeping his human form, he managed to fight the hords but embraced madness/destruction when Zephyro appeared he switched to his destruction/khaslana form and got bodied instantly only when he cut his wing somehow resembling a human again was he able to stand again and fight. And that final shot of his inner wrath from millions of years of suffering taking a human shape to become galaxy level was beautiful. From what I got he's trying to use destruction to end destruction but lygus want him to embrace destruction for his plan to come to an end so maybe the song is trying to symbolize that conflict by showing that it is possible but only when you remain human.
>>637122 I thought the same thing except I didn't want to kill myself after watching Phainon letting it rip
So, continuing the topic of Archer, what's going to be his best team? I imagine he'll definitely want Cerydra but what about the other two slots?
>>637221 >definitely want Cerydra No. Use the following and know that they basically have similar results Tribbie, Silver wolf or Cipher Sparkle is necessary sustain could be whoever as long as they are fast and can na without losing so much. And check this fella for anything else. https://youtu.be/iqt1B7GyGlI?si=yJdmD8e0qGrdpg-I
>>637236 So basically something like Archer, Silver Wolf, Sparkle and Gallagher then?
>>637241 That would be my team so yes. Right now focus on your genius set having 100% Crit rate And your sparkle should be fast like 160 speed at least fast.
>>637221 i still think Cerydra is decent for archer. but as the other anon said yea probably not his BIS but we are only in V! anything can happen atm.
>>636680 E6S1 Castorice with RM because I don't like Tribbie E2S1 DHIL with the birds Jing Yuan and Hertas when IL can't get the job done for whatever reason. Will E6 him and Terravox when their banners return/drop.
>>637596 >E2S1 DHIL with the birds Why?
>>637600 No Sparkle. He does fine with them, which is the main reason why I'm not rolling for her now.
>>637653 I meant, why Dhil? It's such a choice to have E6 Cas on one team then the other team is going with a 1.x DPS at E2. I definitely know someone who hates Tribbie though. He had a meltdown over how he was worried his Castorice/Hyacine would be useless without Tribbie then just went full E6 Cas, E6 Hyacine, E6 Sunday so obviously he didn't need Tribbie since he had something better. The power of money.
>>637666 >He had a meltdown over how he was worried his Castorice/Hyacine would be useless without Tribbie then just went full E6 Cas, E6 Hyacine, E6 Sunday Jesus christ. HSR truly has the most retarded slurpers.
She BROKE you.
>>637673 The meltdown was quite funny though since everyone else was rolling her while he was feeling the FOMO.
Let it be known that I've always wanted to get physically intimate with Mem. >>636319 I personally think it's cool we get to not just fuck with another Lord Ravager, but even possibly prevent the birth of a new one. If this doesn't end with Irontomb being dead dead, I'll be disappointed. >>636654 I still wish we get a main story episode where TB solves a crisis by their lonesome or at least without any help from other AE members, but the power of friendship is too strong. >>636662 Don't forget Herta and Screwllum, mostly Screwllum. And maybe the rest of the AE will actually do something too.
>>637769 Mem sex
Actually, do you guys think Cyrene will get a silly real name that references the character she's based on? Like how Mei ended up as Raiden "Bosenmori" Mei and Phainon ended up as "Khaslana".
>>637810 That's already her village. Or she could be Elhysia or something with a random H in her name somewhere
>>637810 is there a purpose to these names? i never understood why did acheron have that moment
Wait her name isn't really Miss Pink Elf?
>>637892 They probably want to reference the old names or make a Honkai reference for old HI3 players but they try too hard to force it to the point it just ends up being funny. Genshin had their own moment too when they revealed that the Shogun's name was Raiden Ei. >>637893 No, her name is Elysia. The character Phainon is based on is called Kevin but his full name is Kevin Kaslana.
>>637896 >They probably want to reference the old names or make a Honkai reference for old HI3 players but they try too hard to force it to the point it just ends up being funny. i understand that but it feels rather pointless when you consider all the fanfare around the reveal of it, youd think they would make those names mean something besides "this character is based on one from our previous games", besides that most people either know or are told about it long before a reveal because of very similar designs
>>637913 Yeah they just reveal them in a silly way too. I have no idea what they're thinking with these, honestly. >Hmmm, how should we reference the character he's based on? >It's fine, just throw a random H in his name. I think they said in an interview once that they wanted to make the Honkai characters recognizable across games and franchises so maybe this is their way of getting players interested in the previous iterations of the character? If they want me to soyface over a reference then they should do something like putting Cyberangel as the BGM in a story/chapter dedicated to Silver Wolf for example. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxG8ZgJdxso I'll stand up, clap and shill HSR to everyone forever if they give me something like the Estranged Stars event in HI3 too but that's probably asking for too much. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BN2C3xWvcbQ Reason I'm bringing up the HI3 music/songs is because they used TruE (Elysia's song) as Cyrene's BGM which was a pretty missable reference for non-HI3 players but pretty blatant for fans of Elysia that listened to the song a lot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3XmgyWiFuM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-K28-A4fBc

Much like Aglaea on release, at E0, Phainon is specifically a MoC merchant, specialized in dealing with bosses whose gimmick is pure dmg and survivability check. He is a character with 400 spd that deals dmg in his turn, so very very high floor. But his performance is extremely unstable. Any bosses with a stalling mechanic is his worst nightmare. If you can't have meaningful progress within the first 2 ults, you're very much screwed. PF, 40k is not too hard, not too easy. AS, unless you can brute force phase 2, he'll forever stuck at around 180x (if the buff is full ulti refund) or less. Now then, how do you construct the best team for him? After many testing, a support that can give him rare buff (vul, true dmg, res pen, def shred) will be much better even if they can't give him ST buff, or they can do both and be the goat like RMC. The 2nd slot, if you don't have limited eidolon on support, is always gonna be e2 bronya. She enables atk boots on him while still allow for spd sync after ult, as well as provide a perfect checkpoint to end wave 1, useful for all kinds of players. Her downside of buff uptime is completely irrelevant with him. The last slot is a flex until we get his BiS cough Also, according to HoS, Sunday is "not important at all" to Phainon and can be replaced with Tingyun or RMC and "should get his LC instead if you're rolling for sunday". Don't ask me if that's true.
>>637936 Probably not. Culture is increasingly fragmented, so even the most niche voices have louder volume while the "mono-culture" is increasingly diminishing. Years ago you can have everyone talking about Star wars or the latest Beyonce song, now i bet you have never heard of this song even though it's the top song in the billboard 100. https://youtu.be/u2ah9tWTkmk?si=Zh00tkZIGX2QDirq
>>638010 Isn't it a bad example because of the audience? Someone who plays stuff like Star Rail and ZZZ won't have their ear to mainstream music trends but to anime stuff instead
>>638015 That's what I meant by the mono-culture dying though. The mainstream is no longer mainstream in a sense. Even if you were like a Norwegian blood metal whatever fan you would have heard of gangnam style. Now what's the biggest movie everyone is talking about? The biggest show? The biggest music?
>>637913 I honestly liked the name reveal. They didn't make such a big deal out of it with Cyrene just saying it in a single line instead of having the same build-up that Acheron had. And it actually was used to tell the looping Phainon and the current cycle version apart. Such as in the first loop where Phainon and Khaslana fought, and despite the winner being unclear he was still named Khaslana. Plus the fact that our Phainon stayed as Phainon despite all the memories, showing he didn't get consumed. Also guess this makes TB officially a Khaslana kek. Considering the Acheron thing they did in 2.3 where TB said she was familiar as well and how Phainon said they were similar, wouldn't surprise me if TB is a Kiana/Kevin expy. Seems the devs has been baiting this for a while now.
Can you even clear x8 difficulty with pre 3.0 characters with less than 5 cost?

>>639176 almost tempted to roll hysilens for my nigga sampo but she seems so boring so far and i need pulls for cerydra/march/cyrene and maybe dan if he is really in full armor
>>639176 She looks so strong, but I dislike basically everything about her. Design is ugly, personality black hole, and the skill/ultimate are lame looking. Being a Kafka enjoyer is suffering.
Reminder to occasionaly clear your upgraded relics >>639229 The detail on her stomach got me good but i can feel she's going to be a cerydra orbiter and nothing else
>>639195 What investment? In the current state you can run BS or any area support in the 3rd slot and either Fofo or a SP generating sustain in the 4th. You do have Kafka, right? >>639216 >>639229 The design is growing on me. It's definitely one of the weakest ones in Amphoreus, but she's not ugly and her animations look graceful. I don't think it's fair to say anything about her personality when I don't think she even appeared in the game yet. Most importantly she maintains that visceral feel of killing the enemy with 100 small nukes I love playing DoT for.

Can't get much better than this.
>>639836 Yeah we already have 2 pink girls but what about 3?
>>639229 The see through aspect freaks me out a little, but I like the rest of her design. And using swords to play violin is a pretty cool concept. I like the gliding animations as well, although the whale is kinda boring. But I really dislike how she just applies all those dots when she is just a physical unit with a water theme. Why does a physical unit apply a burn dot? Making her quantum would have made way more sense, both as in the sea of quantum and her being weird in applying all those dots. Personality have to see more off next patch, but liked how she bullshited Phainon.
>>639940 >Why does a physical unit apply a burn dot? Why does a wind scholar apply every weakness?
The real Hysilens powercreep is having an almost symmetrical outfit design I would pull if she wasn't dot

Cerydras really cute, and I've been thinking about her a lot since I saw the animations. I hope she ends up being great even without Anaxa or whoever.

>>641587 Cyrene probably got gazed by the Remembrance who is supposed to be Oronyx/Fuli which is why she was there since March is also very obviously related to the Remembrance.
>>639977 I did my part and downplayed her entire kit in beta.
>>641615 Based. That's the strategy, doompost the shit out of characters so they get buffed. I don't understand the people that defend the shit out of characters they like even when they're mediocre as fuck when the optimal strategy is the opposite.
>>641619 Honestly, she's okay and I'm glad she's not the latest be all, end all supporter/buffer but her kit is very schizo right now. She's really good for the characters that can use and abuse her but otherwise she's meh.
>>641615 >ANOTHER crit damage buffer and action advancer Wow, so cool to have our 4th hypercarry harmony character instead of a single DoT buffing harmony
>>641627 Hysilens fixes literally everything bad about DoT, what's the issue?
>>641630 DoT is still missing something. I've tried a few characters and honestly, besides Kafka and Hy, the rest of the team doesn't fucking matter. I guess Huo Huo and Ruan Mei are the best supports to throw in but something is clearly missing.
>>641640 Isn't DoT just fundamentally fucked? Because Damage Over Time takes effect when the enemy acts which means it will always be bad in a speedrun contest. Yunli (And clara before she was replaced) somehow manage to skirt that and strangely tend to benefit from new relics and buffers so maybe the guy in charge of counter mechanics has a more clear picture of what he wants vs the DoT guy.
Obligatory polkawank spotted >>641627 When i saw she was chess themed i started imagining a unit that would change buffs depending on the path of the target, like a different chess piece for each or something
>>641664 Polka is based, I wonder when she'll show up in the story
>>641667 It feels like she can show up and do this to lygus in the near future
>>641722 I kneel SNEAKY ONE >>641652 Yeah, kinda. Hysilens is a nice damage boost thanks to the damage she brings but the new manta ray enemies have so much fucking HP and advance themselves when they get attacked, that they take more damage from their mandatory 20% hp loss than the DoT. DoT really needs an actual dedicated support. Ruan Mei still seems like the best option but running DoT without as sustain seems fucking crazy right now. Until they pull a Hyacine for DoT anyway
>>641626 I think the idea of a designated second harmony for hypercarry is cool and more unique than area buffer #15 or action advancer #7, but right now her kit focuses on skill characters too much to play into that fully. I guess locking her ability doubling to skill only is a safeguard so you don't waste it when you get it but Phainon doesn't have a meteor charged, but they could do something more elegant. And the buff numbers and buffs themselves can use some adjustment too. >>641652 DoT being dependant on the enemy was never an issue, I mean it was but not in the way you're describing, DoTs tick down when enemies act so you actually don't want them to act too much to stack up a lot, unless the content in PF where the damage is enough to make the enemies kill themselves. I think some people hate DoT just because it plays fundamentally different as a team than almost anything else in the game, almost every other DPS has a stack gaining mechanic of some sort and your game plan is to cycle filling those stacks on loop, meanwhile DoT is a steady rhythm of building up and keeping up DoTs on the enemy while Kafka explodes the damage every action. One of the factors that hold back DoT is that rampup that resets when enemies change phases, that could actually be fixed if there was a character like Cipher who not only records damage, but debuffs too, so you can snapshot a lot of stacks and remove ramp up time every wave and phase change
>>641801 Her damage multipliers need a significant buff or her traces need to be overhauled completely. 100 CR and 360 CD along with 4k attack and barely doing damage is fucking insane
>>641821 In showcases it seems like her damage is on par with Cinny, which is not bad for a support and especially a hypercarry support who usually contribute nothing but buffs and action value. But Cinny does attack at a higher rate, they could bump it up a bit to actually be on par with her damage

Okay, after sitting and digesting 3.4 for the last day and a half, I can still say I'm not too sue I cure for 3.5's story even with how little we know. The new cycle and how TB interacts with it will be interesting but I feel like it'll mostly be a setup that will be built upon in 3.6. End of 3.6 or 7 will have Irontomb being fully realized and 3.7 or 8 will be destroying him completely. Biggest things I want to know are mostly March and Cyrene and how the Garden plays into the universal game of chess
I think the only thing that can actually deal any sort of damage to my team in DU is castorice using her skill multiple times in a row

>>642159 Oh, right. Thanks to the latest story trailer, we know that Destruction Emanators were Emanators of other paths. Is there anything in lore that points towards this? Does this explain why TB can just use other paths without issue? Does this also mean that characters can just be gazed upon by other Aeons and not be emanators of that path or is TB just special? Lygus specifically says their a Destruction path strider

Kinda makes me think about how much of it is shit they just recently made up considering that we never heard of celenova in penacony.

I just realized something that confuses me about what's revealed in the new story patch: How the fuck can a Khaslana with 33 million cycles worth of experience be beaten by a newbie cycle Phainon? Wasn't turning into the world ending Khaslana something that the Flame Reaver/Khaslana can do? Can the 1 cycle Khaslana/Phainon do that too? The newest animation on youtube seems to suggest that, even though he doesn't have the 33m*12 coreflames yet.
>>642458 >khaslana is probably holding back. the point was to get 1 cycle phainon to kill him in order to transfer the coreflames and memories to phainon. everything else is just getting to provoke phainon into doing it
>>642447 Penacony was said to be a small part of the Family's territory so it's possible no one on that planet except maybe the Dreammaster (who came from a different planet entirely) knew anything about Celenova or her past
(821.03 KB 4096x4096 20250704_074242.jpg)

How's my Phainon looking? Since I got Bailu cone'd, I figure I'd use SPD boots in the meantime until I can get his cone
This is getting stressful. First run was before this patch and I tried hours and failing before I got a GOD run. 2nd run was during this thread while I was asking for some tips and I lucked out getting all the DOT stuff. 3rd run I don't know what happened but by the end Phainon kept ulting while doing some damage. When he dies he has ult immediately up and I ulted and died back to back like 4 times in a row. Then I built it up one time and he could then repeat the back to back ults.
spent a couple hours tweaking my dotbricks sets and stats, the conclusion is that they're still only suable when there's a dotshilling buff
March 7th's voice represents Oronyx's "Mother" in "As I've Written" in the Time Chrysos Heir chapter Interesting
>>642159 We know from what they said on the livestream that 3.7 will be the last Amphoreus patch, with 3.8 being Penacony. And maybe they will make 3.7 an epilogue patch, like 2.3 was. Similar to how this patch kinda was an epilogue to part 1, and was shorter as a result. And 3.7 would be a perfect place to put a potential Fate part 2, if they are actually going to make Lancer playable. As for the story, probably will pick up around the same timewindow as the cycle 1 Phainon traveled back in time to. Makes sense with the banners. Phainon was still part of the system and the prophecy, while TB has the advantage of being an outside force. Considering how much they repeated how Phainon tried accessing the scepter's inner systems and kept failing, this probably will be the goal. TB already has access, but still needs to get administrator rights. With March+Dan the patch after that, I can see them helping gaining control from the scepter. Dan with the genius society from outside, March from the inside. Can already see the big final battle being TB summoning all the heirs from the buffer to defeat Irontomb. They can probably pull this off in 2 patches, but I prefer if they spent 3.6 on developing March and Dan and save the final fight for 3.7. 3.5 beta: They already put the Lygus boss fight in the game. My guess is we will be defeating him to steal his administrator rights, so we can directly confront Irontomb after that. Probably will reveal what Lygus is, him being just an avatar of Irontomb to interact with the simulation is too simple to me.
>>642270 Celenova was one of the Harmony emanators but she died and was reborn so that's probably not the best example. Zephyro is/was a Self Annihilator like Acheron.
>>642731 >Lygus To be fair, he did repeatedly say that he's an Erudition Pathstrider at the very least. My bet right now is that he's either some survivor or otherwise related to the Mechanical Emperor's War, much like the Scepter. Or maybe a rogue IPC member with some vengeance against something, but that's a bit boring.

Wait when we read this in the fakeout ending doesnt that mean we pretty much leave march7th to die since she expects us to be on the planet but we are already back on the express?
>>642458 Khaslana's body is basically burnt to a crisp due to the coreflames. Just look at how much Flame reaver degraded during this cycle alone, went from short sentences in 3.1 to being broken in 3.3. And his face in the boss fight was basically already broken, so I doubt his body was in a good condition to fully use his skills and powers. But his plan is to just let the Phainon of the current cycle kill him to get a fresh body that can house the coreflames again, so he wins anyway. As for Khaslana form, I think 12 coreflames is enough. Or maybe just being the host of the destruction equation is enough. Also in the character trailer did Phainon transform, while flamereaver is still alive. Although those always take some liberties with the lore. >>642746 Lygus did say he never lied, which considering his personality I feel like is the truth. So don't think he's an IPC member, has to be erudition. The scepter is technically part of erudition, and Irontomb was born from the scepter. So if Lygus is the avatar of Irontomb, then he wasn't lying. Or could be a survivor from the scholar strife, wanting to see Irontomb's self-coronation since they failed plus seething against Nous for being a mundanite

>>642867 I think Castorice team should last because it doesn't rely on any gimmicks, it's just damage. Firefly fell off because she relies on breaking the enemy targets but teams like Acheron, Yunli and Feixiao are still very much alive and doing fine since they're damage without gimmicks. Castorice should be the same, especially if you have her premium team. Unless they add some boss that punishes AOE damage for some reason but surely they wouldn't do that right? On that note, apparently the Phainon shill boss can be easily bruteforced with her. According to HoS, the boss is really hard to do sustainless but turns out that Castorice's best team has Hyacine on it and even comes with a global passive to really make sure nobody gets taken by Death's embrace.
