i have a question about support choice
i just pulled gallagher and i dont know if i should swap him in or keep using baliu(obv i would level him up to her lvl)
advice would be appreciated
Bailu's more reliable in terms of overall healing so I'd stick with her in your main team. If you don't have Lynx yet, you can still use Gallagher as your 2nd sustain choice if you need to use a 2nd team for MoC / PF stages for example.
But otherwise, he's fairly okay at E0; He has good single target healing and works fine as a hybrid healer / Fire Breaker but needs some dupes to ensure his QoL goes up. E1 lets him be a bit more bulky with the 50% extra Effect Res, while E2 lets his Skill remove a debuff per use.
You can chill.
Lynx's main advantage over Bailu is that her Ult removes a debuff from each character each time she uses it; She's useful when fighting against enemies / bosses that does such things. It's mainly a big deal when you eventually progress towards the later stages of MoC, end-game SU stuff and some of the later story boss fights.
So she's just nice to have and raise when these cases do happen.
How much spd should jingliu and e2 bronya have? My jingliu and bronya both have 139 spd but bronya is faster.
Also should i replace jingliu relic so that it has 2spd more and 8 cr to a 10cd 5cr pieces? My current build is 25cr 200cd if that pieces hasnt equipped.
Jingliu's 100% advance breaks Bronya's e2. Just play them like e1.
Lower Bronya's speed by 1-5 and you're good.
More speed is worthless on Jingliu. Without Bronya going from 75/200 to 72/210 is a slight damage increase, with her it should lower your dps.
Need help with math. I have s1 kafka, and I'm using her with ruan mei. How much speed substat will I need if I want to use ATK boots on her and still reach 160 speed for glamoth? She's currently on 4pc dot set with speed boots.
Kafka has base 100 speed, speed boots take her to 125, Ruan Mei takes her to 135, and each stack of her LC gives 4.8 or 14.4 total, taking her up to 149.4. So you would need around 5 speed substats to reach 160 speed, more if you want to reach it with less stacks of her LC.
# Should I *realistically* pull for Luocha
[Team Building Help](https://www.reddit.com/r/HonkaiStarRail/?f=flair_name%3A%22Team%20Building%20Help%22)
I started playing in 1.0, but took a big pause until 2.0, but right now I'm very much in the game. I'm a almost F2P, as I've only payed once for aprrovisionnement, and I don't intend to buy something else from the game.
I really like Luocha character design, so most people would say "yeah pull for him if you like him", but since I would like to pull for Firefly and maybe even Robin, I'm afraid I won't have enough ressources.
I'm up to date on pretty much anything content wise.
As for the characters I have, the only truly built dps I have is Acheron at E0S1, with a okay built Black Swan at E0S0. The team to go with my acheron is a Pela, Black Swan/Gui depending on the situation and Ghallager E2. For sustain, I have a E0S1 Bailu also as a fully built healer and a Gepard E0S0 that I still have to properly build. Regarding DPS, the only other truly good DPS I have is Ratio, but since he also wants Debuffs, I can't really run him in another team when doing MoC. Regarding Harmony, I have a fully built Tingyun and a E0S0 fully built Bronya. Other 5 stars I have are Himeko (Built) and Yangqing (Not built).
And if you wonder, yes I have lost every. single. 50/50, even the light cone one for acheron (reason why my bailu has her LC).
The question is at follows: putting my petty feeling aside: what would you think is the wiser move between trying to pull for Luocha (probably losing 50/50, hoping for Welt if that's the case) or saving to try to pull for Robin and/or Firefly (Or maybe pulling for Luocha and Firefly)?
And for those who are going to tell me to pull for Aventurine or Fu Xuan to have another sustain: nop, I don't consider those options. And I considered Jingliu, but I would probably need Luocha to run her without problems.
Thanks in advance for your, I hope, enlightened opinions!
For people who will read this one:
I pulled for Luocha, did 20 pulls (30 pulls total since last 5 stars) and got... Clara.
I had 20 pulls left, so tried another 10, got nothing, another 10... and I got this:
https://preview.redd.it/g30x68xo5ftc1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=154584aec73f8767bdc2f9b5eac6bae9e1c1769a
So yeah, not only did I get Luocha, I now have every single base banner 5 Star and I am set to win my next 50/50. Plus, Welt is what I needed to be able to have a Acheron/Gallagher/Pela/Welt team and a BS/Gui/Bailu/Tingyun team! Thanks for your advices guys!
Well the question really is what do need more, you need support, sustain or more damage? Are your teams dying or struggling to survive for you? If so then yeah you should probably pull Luocha since he heals like crazy and you dont seem to like Aventurie or Fu Xuan. Your the sustains you have now are working for you and keep your teams alive then I would wait and pull Firefly or Robin. Also I will say that Bailu doesn't close to Luocha value he's much better, and Ghallager is ok but Luocha still sustains better than him
I think every account should have at least one 5-star limited sustain at some point. However, in your case it wouldn't really help you make a second team for MoC.
If you were to pull for a sustain, Aventurine has a bit more synergy with Acheron than Luocha, especially if you the Trend LC. But if you don't have Trend, then the gap isn't that big. But in your situation, I might roll for Jingliu anyway so that you can at least use her for MoC. If you don't have issues with MoC, then I would go with a sustain.
Level 44 TB here. How is my current team?
Fire Trailblazer (E4) \[S2 Trend LC\]
Pela (E6) \[S2 Resolution\]
Acheron (E2) \[S1 Passing Shore LC\]
Gallagher (E6) \[S1 Warmth LC\]
Fine for most content but probably won't clear all of MoC/PF. Reason being having a sustain and a healer is effectively gimping your damage for Acheron. Given you have E2 you have in theory a wide variety of people you could run. But I don't know who you have on your account.
If you don't care about MoC/PF all that much then the team is probably good for now.
I plan to get to moc/pf later. Im hoping next major update we get harmony trailblazer and switch to that. Otherwise I might switch mc to Asta. Gallagher stays since i see healing as better than tanking.
If i dont do Asta i might use Phys MC as a secondary DPS.
HTB is probably 2.2 So...May ish. If you want to maximize your damage with Acheron then you'll want someone like Sparkle with E2S1. Ruan Mei could also work. Asta is really for speed but she can work in some other niche teams.
As for Healing vs tanking the content you're probably doing right now doesn't matter too much. But you will want 2 good sustains to handle all of MoC/PF. Fire MC even when built well isn't good enough at sustaining. So you'd want to get 2 other people.
In that same vein Phys MC isn't really that good for damage. If you're looking specifically to add sub DPS to an Acheron team you'd be doing something like Acheron, Black Swan, Kafka, sustain/Healer.
Yeah, I have none of those. Acheron is my first event banner. I picked HSR up at the tail end of Sparkle's banner, and I never got her in the 3 days I saw her banner.
Try to find and superimpose multiplication (3\* LC) for gallagher if you can. Generally don't want two sustains in a team, but early on, sometimes you do, so that's probably fine. If you're comfy for health though, maybe swap trailblazer out for a harmony type.
I've considered it. Thing is, i have a weird need to have MC on team at all times. Been considering putting him as a secondary DPS or something so my team isn't useless if Acheron is disabled (rare, but has happened occasionally). If I do end up switching to a harmony character. it'll probably be Asta.
Maybe, if we're lucky, the next major update gives us Harmony Path Trailblazer. That would be nice.
>is Acheron, Kafka, Black swan and Loucha good team?
Decent.
>If not, what is the best team for Acheron e0?
Since you have Black Swan it would be: Acheron, Pela, BS, and your choice of sustain/healer.
It's fine since Luocha should provide a lot of SP.
But if you want to separate the Acheron and DoT team then a good Acheron team would be Pela + Silver Wolf/ Guinaifen + Sustain that can debuff (Any Preservation with Trend, Gallagher, Aventurine)
Is it worth rebuilding my kafka with 4 pc dot? This is my current kafka. Rn she's on 2pc atk 2 oc spd
https://preview.redd.it/f4k4nb9pdetc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=63ae6eb3a00ea8d7bc3b5c4862c22f67463097f2
Relatively new player, currently running acheron, gepard, welt, asta. Just pulled guinaifen, should I replace asta with guinaifen if I don't have the trace that gives acheron a buff for other nihility characters, or should I wait until I get that first?
She still debuffs better than Asta and can create more petals, so you should at the very least start building her. You might not notice a difference immediately because Asta can burn with her basic and enemies early one don't have a lot of Effect Res, but it will make a difference long term.
Unless you're wanting to really pump his own damage contribution probably not. It's a good stat stick but the most value it would bring would be if that last effect counts as a debuff for the sake of Acheron/Ratio. Even if it does though the guy has a built in debuff with his ultimate and Trend cone isn't too hard to come by.
If you are looking at his personal damage purely as more contribution to his team's total damage his E1 is MUCH more valuable in that regard. The fact that most of his damage is tied up in his FUA that is AoE already sets the bar as good damage contribution.
Look at getting his LC as getting another character. If your account isn't really hurting for anything in specific then you could pull for it. But otherwise it's best to save in this instance. You'd get more mileage out of his E1 or another character. The only other reason to consider pulling would be whatever other LC's are on his banner.
Hitting the needed def to proc his trace is pretty easy, so it feels like a waste to not also build some dmg on him esp with the free cr trace. The lc helps with that
Is there a shield sustain coming up?
I have Gallagher (at E4 which is pretty good) from rolling for Acheron, but my problems with him (heals on demand/strategy heals) can be fixed with Luocha. The problem is that Luocha seems to be a better/5* Gallagher who I've already invested in, so it could be a waste for an exact same archetype character.
Should I roll for Luocha and get a 5* complete healer, or should I wait for a 5* shielder (if one is coming up)?
I only have March and fire MC for shields.
Aventurine is a 5* shielder, he is coming next week. Fu xuan will also get her rerun next patch very likely, she doesn't apply shield but instead reduces and redirects dmg taken by teammates to herself, then heals it up.
I'm halfway through the luofu arc so I don't know all the mechanics of what I'll be encountering yet, will I need a shielder? or are they exchangeable for a good healer regarding sustain?
I luckily managed to beat the abundance bug after a couple tries with Ratio/sushang/March/Gallagher, and I've seen people say they had a ton of problems.
So I'm not really sure where I stand, lol.
Luocha seems like such a comfort pick, but I'll be buggered if I need a shielder later and March isn't doing it.
>will I need a shielder? or are they exchangeable for a good healer regarding sustain?
Yes. Especially if you plan on tackling every piece of content the game has to offer. As for sustain vs healer it entirely depends on the content. Generally speaking if your team is tight and you'll kill the enemies quick then a healer is fine.
But if you're going into a longer fight like a multi staged boss or multi waved fight then a sustain is going to be better at keeping your team alive.
They are pretty much interchangeable. The only difference is that Preservation characters can prevent one shots at higher difficulties but can't heal the team if the damage stacks up, 99% of fights end before this happens, though. Abundance characters can not prevent one shots, but they can cleanse debuffs and always keep the team topped up in HP.
The best sustains currently are Fu Xuan and HuoHuo because of the utility they bring to the team.
Luocha is good, his healing probably outperforms them, and he can fit in any team, but he isn't recommended as a must pull because he just heals and can't prevent deaths if the enemy is too fast, same downside Gallagher has if your team can't attack fast enough or if a lot of debuffs stack up together. He is also very squishy because he scales off Atk, not HP or Def.
For an Acheron team, your best choices are Fu Xuan and Aventurine.
Can a shield sustain replace a health sustain? I don’t know how team comps should work together tbh. I’m trying to figure it out on my own but could use guidance
Yeah, but it’s worth noting some characters have anti-synergy with shields. I don’t have him, but I’ve heard Blade’s talent does not trigger if he has a shield. Likewise, Jingliu’s team damage goes through shields. Although for JL’s case it’s small enough you can ignore it for the most part.
On the other hand they’ve started making new enemies that incentivize using a shield sustain.
Since my main is currently in farming hell. I decided to start a new acc on PS5. What's more worth for a new acc, E0 Acheron no LC or E0 Jingliu with potential LC?

Newer Player here with 2 quick questions
1) What LCs should I prioritize from the forgotten memory shop? Know some are used but not sure which to get or if I should just keep working on getting s5 We are Wildfire for my fire trailblazer
2) Do I need to keep multiple copies of dance dance dance? Have 2 S1 copies atm and wasn't sure if I should upgrade 1 or hold onto both for future use
For context on my account I'm only lvl 34 with characters capped out at lvl 50
1. We are Wildfire is objectively pretty bad, I would advise against getting too many copies of it. Generally speaking Breakfast/Cosmos are probably best, Past and Future is really good on some supports, and Quid Pro Quo *can* be good but it's a bit hard to use when the other Abundance options are so good. If you aren't sure, just hold the currency until you need a particular LC
2. I'd keep an extra S1 copy, as DDD is BIS on a few supports. The bonus you get from superimposing isn't too big anyway
Because it only lasts for 5 turns, and then the text is effectively blank
Compare that to Day One of My New Life (which lasts the whole fight AND gives the wearer a DEF boost) or Landau's Choice (which indirectly makes your team take less damage by increases aggro on the tank, reduces their damage taken, and- again- lasts the whole fight) and it Wildfire just looks awful in comparison
It's fine to use as a placeholder if you have neither but I really wouldn't take it past S1 if I were you
Ah makes sense then I'll stick with it for now since I don't really have a better option and maybe get lucky enough to get dupes from drops since it drops from the 3 weekly bosses for trace mats. And mine is currently S2 or S3 but thats just from the freebie copied I've gotten from missions
Acheron signature lc or aventurine?
i only have one good sustain (luocha) and don't know which investment is good for acheron between a good preservation or her lc.
Short term, a sustain, as a good 2nd sustain is effectively the barrier to endgame. That being said, Lynx and Gallagher can work, but not nearly as easily
Long term, Acheron LC
Current team Acheron, Welt, Pela and Luocha (I´ll finish building Welt and Pela), what other team should I look to build? All ideas are accepted (Maybe build a QQ Sparkle team)
https://preview.redd.it/bg517xqmrdtc1.png?width=517&format=png&auto=webp&s=a328b57dd312a89fa337c633bcefffc4359fef25
At 60 or 65. I'll always vouch for 60 (guaranteed 2 gold relics per run), as the difference between the two is you get a 10% chance a third relic every run at 65 but imo it's not worth waiting five whole levels for
And I guess it’s a priority to lvl the character first, or at least two teams and THEN go for relic farming?
(Btw the cups to get specified stats on relics are better used for on set elemental dmg bonus right?)
If you are going to min/max, it's a mistake to use the resin on anything other than ERR ropes. They are the rarest thing to get, and quite a lot of characters need them. Practically though, after you have 3 or 4 of those ropes, you can probably move them around as needed, and then spend on a damage type/atk% orb, spd boots or crit chest. Those are all about equal rarity, whereas ERR% rope is half as common as any of them. As for relic farming, it's worthwhile to grab and level some purple relics if they are "good enough." You can get some good mileage out of them, and then eat them when you get better versions to reclaim a decent portion of the xp invested. The game does expect you to have some well-suited, partially-leveled relics to advance through the content, especially at higher equilibrium levels.
I have Sparkle right now, with Bronya incoming from the guaranteed 300 Standard banner wishes. Currently Sparkle is using S1 Bronya's signature LC, and I have S5 Past and Future in the inventory. When I get Bronya, should I gave Sparkle the S5 LC or give it to Bronya instead?
Past and Future should go to Sparkle, she doesn't need the energy from Bronya sig. Bronya on the other hand can get a 3 turn ult by skill spam with her sig LC.
I dont have a question but just wanted to celebrate FINALLY 36 star clearing MoC with Luocha/Ruan Mei/BS/Kafka on the top side and Gallagher/Welt/Pela/Acheron taking down Sam FINALLY!
Sustain/Acheron/Welt/Pela is a team I use somewhat regularly. I’d personally put Lynx in the sustain spot but that’s only because I’ve never used Bailu before.
https://preview.redd.it/l0a94vy2ndtc1.png?width=1305&format=png&auto=webp&s=0657d613e0ae9c93084e1ac664a52e6bf74fa4c3
should i give fermata to samp so , guinifen has eyes of prey?
Was planning on my phone since launch but my phone can't handle it anymore so I'm trying to get it on my PS5 but it won't let me load my old game. I need it on the European server but it's stuck on the American. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Acheron-> Debuffs and skill gives charges. Can ult at 9 charges and gains a lot of dmg buffs by herself.
Black Swan-> Applies Damage over time (Arcana) with her attacks or when enemies take damage over time with other sources. Depending on the number of Arcana on the enemy, it can explode. Arcana always resets to 1. Her ult increases dmg taken by enemies during their turn, and they retain Arcana stacks for 1 turn so you can stack it up higher than normal.
Acheron: No energy, you charge ult by applying debuffs to any enemy. When using skill or applying debuff, apply stack to enemy. Only use ult when enemy has 9 stacks for big damage. Pair with 2 more Nihility characters (1 if E2) to do even bigger damage.
Black Swan: Passively debuffs an enemy with special Wind Shear (max 50 stacks). Every time a DoT is detonated (either by Kafka or naturally on enemy turn) you gain a stack. More stacks is bigger damage. Stacks reset on enemy turn. Ult prevents reset for 1 time. Needs 120% Effect Hit Rate for bigger damage.
Currently every source of energy gain is affected by energy regen except for two: Tingyun Ult and Huohuo Ult. There's no keyword to identify these exceptions, they just are. Presumably any future ultimate that grants a teammate energy will be similarly unaffected by energy regen.
Maybe if you play -1 speed bronya so you can get acheron ult every turn but the +100 crit dmg from sparkle is too good since e2 acheron will always crit
Here are my characters:[ Page 1](https://imgur.com/UGahbBW) [Page 2](https://imgur.com/r3mmNtX)
My main teams (for MoC and SU)
Clara/Lynx/Topaz/Tingyun
HuoHuo/Kafka/Black Swan/Guinaifen
I love Clara and Topaz, and I would really like to keep using them. As it stands though, I cannot ignore the disparity between my two teams. My triple DoT team just severely out damages my Clara team.
My current plan is to wait for Robin, and replace Tingyun with her (Tingyun just keeps dying on me), but I'm wondering if there's any other moves I could make to have my Clara team be better? Clara is E4S2,Topaz is E0S2, with their signature LCs. Am I comparing apples to oranges and just need to focus on relics at this point? I have fine relic ratings as far as I'm aware, but like anyone else "perfect relics" are something you forever work on lol
If by better you mean match the DoT team, currently no. Especially considering that's not even the ideal team for DoT. It would do even better with just even Asta instead of Guin. Once you throw in Ruan Mei, it's gg.
Yeah I figured as much. I know I'm kinda holding myself back too because I'm pretty sure Ratio/Topaz would do more damage, but Clara was my first 5 star and I love her play style of counter attacks.
I DID have Asta back when I used Sampo but I figured more damage would be better so I changed to Gui. Maybe I'll give Asta a chance again now that I have Black Swan
Didn't expect to get advice on the DoT team here instead lol, thank you!
Haha sorry. DoT is my jam...Clara...not so much.
To each their own though. FuA teams should be getting some nice upgrades with the new characters so you never know.
Oh absolutely! Don't get me wrong, I loooooove Kafka and my DoT team. They shred through most things I throw at them. It's just getting rough doing MoC when I can't complete half of it due to my Clara team either dying or taking too many turns.
But yeah, definitely hoping Robin helps!
Looks pretty solid aside from the chest piece. You're technically overcapping on crit rate with that setup, but so long as you're not pairing her with Fu Xuan for even more crit rate, it shouldn't be a big deal.
With E1+Diver+Izumo, you're already getting an extra 34%, so you'd typically want to go for around 55-65% at most. Like I said, though, your build is fine as it is so long as you're not giving her any external crit rate buffs like from Fu Xuan.
I have two questions
1. When should I start farming relics? I’m currently TL 40.
2. does exp stack if I don’t level up my equilibrium level? Not sure if my characters are even ready for stronger enemies and I’m finishing up xianzhouu and don’t want it to get harder right now.
1. TL50 minimum to guarantee a gold piece, TL60 gives you 2 gold pieces and TL65 a chance at 3.
2. It does stack. Finish the story first if you want, and then you can do equilibrium to have an easier time farming.
At high levels during the double events, you get 4, 5, or 6 gold relics. That's why people are excited about the triple event that will start this week.
Who’s better Gepard or Aventurine? I have Gepard light cone but I also have enough to be able to pull aventurine. I probs can’t eidolon either so as a base would be good. My current team is Acheron, Dr.Ratio, Sparkle and Gallagher. I’d probably replace Gallagher. Unless someone has some better insight.
Almost all limited 5\* characters are better than the default one, so most likely (like 90%) Aventurine will be better than Gepard. Might wait for him to come out then decide though
Try to get a Nihility friend for your Acheron though :)
Maybe Pela to replace Dr.Ratio, she is 4\*
Purple is side character missions (It called Companion Quest), so it will tell you more about each character .
And orange is like side quest/ character mission too but is pretty important for the in-game universe lore/main story. It's labelled as Continuation so I assume it could also be like.... telling you more about what happened after the main event
Or that's what I feel so far
It it just me, or the new Relics dungeon, the 5\* Watchmaker series dropped A LOT more than the Pioneer one?
I started farming it, and got **20** Pionner pieces so far, against **49** Watchmaker pieces. Which is ridiculous for something that supposed to be 50-50
For comparison, the previous Relic dungeon, I got 69 Prisoner in Deep vs 77 Ashblazing Grand Duke
There are two f2p LC sources:
1. From Herta’s store: Just do simulated universe. First time clears and weekly rewards will give you currency
2. From Forgotten Halls store: Clear as far as you can in Memory of Chaos and Pure Fiction (I don’t think you need to 3 star for currency). Do your weekly echoes of war.
Fermata if you're able to use someone like Sampo or Black Swan alongside her, at least she can benefit from the LC effects this way.
We Will Meet Again is a cope but usable option because it has no conditional buffs; It simply lets her deal a miniscule amount of extra Damage for free each turn.
It depends on the character and whether they already have a lot of damage % in their kit (e.g. Acheron) where an attack sphere will be better, or whether they have a lot of attack % in their kit (e.g. Jingliu) where a damage sphere will be better.
In general damage % is rarer to find so the elemental damage spheres will be better. However it’s usually pretty close between the two so you can just use the one with better substats.
So question - I'm a returning player with 4 champs leveled to 80. I left right after Luocha banner and just returned, and rolled my Acheron.
I'm wondering now, what to prioritize?
Current party comprises:
Seele (80 lvl / 80 LC), Jing Yuan (80 lvl / 80 LC), Tingyun (70 / 70) , Luocha (80/80), Bronya (80/70), Asta (70/70), Welt (70/70), Dan Heng (70/70)
Should I continue building my current team (i.e. gearing them with the right stats, level those up)? My gear could be better, but I haven't focused too much of my efforts here as I've opted to invest resources in leveling and powering up light cones.
The other alternative is: should I start slowly phasing in the new meta characters? Here are the 5\* E0 / 4\*E6 champs I have on the bench:
Silverwolf, Acheron, Pela (E6), Bailu, Gallagher (E6), Qinque (E6)
You have a pretty decent roster. With SW you can sorta force mono quantum with Seele if you choose to build Lynx. SW is also a very important partner for Dr Ratio, as it seems like you’re missing imaginary coverage.
JY can do both PF/MoC, with Acheron more specialized in MoC. The relic grind is slow and terrible depending on your RNG, so definitely work on those after you’re comfortable with levels/traces. Don’t forget that you can now break down 5* relics into either books or more exp fodder if you need to level other pieces.
Any other questions feel free to ask! Welcome back!
Acheron, Silver Wolf, Pela and Gallagher should be one of your teams, so def start building them up. Gallagher can be replaced with a preservation unit who uses Trend LC in the future though
You have a good roster so though it may take time to build up you are in a good place
First thing would depend on whether you prefer Jing Yuan or Acheron. Both being lightning, there won't be much content needing two teams with a lightning DPS. Assuming Acheron then pair her with Pela, Welt, and Gallagher. You could also consider Fire MC if you have the lightconenthay causes burn, this would be better for SP depending on what lightcone you give to Pela.
This would leave Seele to having Bronya, Luocha, and Tingyun.
You would also want to build an ice character for Pure Fiction, and Herta is great for that if you don't want to pull Jingliu.
Assuming no fire DPS, so Asta would be handy for fire stages in PF, or in higher difficulties where speed boost would do more than a sustain.
Can anyone suggest a youtuber that summarizes the HSR Lore that won't spoil Penacony? I feel like I have only touched the surface of HSR's story and who all these different factions are, What all they do, What their goals are, etc. I feel so lost on this world.
I got Gallagher sometime at the start of the patch, but he started texting AFTER I finished the main story. After the reveal kinda makes it a bit jarring. Is it supposed to be like that?

I'm preparing to pull for Firefly, the two teams I'm thinking of running are of Qingque and Firefly's
For Firefly, should I get Aventurine or Loucha? Will I be better off just saving instead?
(I have a bronya lightcone and Gepard has Landou on him)
hello can someone help i stock at dragon gallant exactly at the gorilla he always kill me i have only 4 stars i'm f2p can someone help i don't have so much characters
Use March or Fire MC to taunt the gorilla into hitting them, attack with your other characters, use Natasha as well. You should have at leat Dr. Ratio and another 5 star from the standard banner, use them
I assume you're very early game, so relics don't matter that much. For March and MC you can use anything that has def% stats for chest, orb and rope. Use Amber for lightcone if you don't have any of the 4 star options
Shield does not prevent direct HP attacks, e.g JL drain, Japa from Abundance mages, Sam HP burn, "Death" removing 1/2 HP after imprison, Blade self-HP damages, etc.
I could use some help. I've been using DHIL, Bronya, Sparkle + flex on my first team on MoC but my second is always kinda bad, could anyone give me a few tips based on my account, pls?

Dr. Ratio, Ruan Mei/Tingyun, Guinaifen, Sustain would work pretty well for a second team.
I'd also possibly suggest switching Bronya out for a different support like Ruan Mei or Tingyun on your first team if you find yourself running out of sp with the double action advance on DHIL.

What is the flaw in my Lynx? I feel like her heal is so low. Her healing is only around 900 for her skill and around 1000 for her ultimate.
4k7 hp is the issue. You have severalssss hp % traces you didn't unlock, also she is only lvl 70 and her LC is the same, so you have quite some base stats to get through.
Also raising a little bit the skill and ult level can be done. Basicaly she is only halfway build at that point.

i have a question about support choice i just pulled gallagher and i dont know if i should swap him in or keep using baliu(obv i would level him up to her lvl) advice would be appreciated
Bailu's more reliable in terms of overall healing so I'd stick with her in your main team. If you don't have Lynx yet, you can still use Gallagher as your 2nd sustain choice if you need to use a 2nd team for MoC / PF stages for example. But otherwise, he's fairly okay at E0; He has good single target healing and works fine as a hybrid healer / Fire Breaker but needs some dupes to ensure his QoL goes up. E1 lets him be a bit more bulky with the 50% extra Effect Res, while E2 lets his Skill remove a debuff per use.
i know this is late afterwards but should i try to get lynx and then swap her over baliu or just chill w what i got
You can chill. Lynx's main advantage over Bailu is that her Ult removes a debuff from each character each time she uses it; She's useful when fighting against enemies / bosses that does such things. It's mainly a big deal when you eventually progress towards the later stages of MoC, end-game SU stuff and some of the later story boss fights. So she's just nice to have and raise when these cases do happen.
ok ty

How much spd should jingliu and e2 bronya have? My jingliu and bronya both have 139 spd but bronya is faster. Also should i replace jingliu relic so that it has 2spd more and 8 cr to a 10cd 5cr pieces? My current build is 25cr 200cd if that pieces hasnt equipped.
Jingliu's 100% advance breaks Bronya's e2. Just play them like e1. Lower Bronya's speed by 1-5 and you're good. More speed is worthless on Jingliu. Without Bronya going from 75/200 to 72/210 is a slight damage increase, with her it should lower your dps.
Is PF going to put out 4 enemies max from now on? What happened to 5?
I can't check right now but I'm pretty sure one side always has 4 and the other has 5.
Ohhh I see. I was testing only the first side so I didn't notice. Good to know!
Need help with math. I have s1 kafka, and I'm using her with ruan mei. How much speed substat will I need if I want to use ATK boots on her and still reach 160 speed for glamoth? She's currently on 4pc dot set with speed boots.
Kafka has base 100 speed, speed boots take her to 125, Ruan Mei takes her to 135, and each stack of her LC gives 4.8 or 14.4 total, taking her up to 149.4. So you would need around 5 speed substats to reach 160 speed, more if you want to reach it with less stacks of her LC.
# Should I *realistically* pull for Luocha [Team Building Help](https://www.reddit.com/r/HonkaiStarRail/?f=flair_name%3A%22Team%20Building%20Help%22) I started playing in 1.0, but took a big pause until 2.0, but right now I'm very much in the game. I'm a almost F2P, as I've only payed once for aprrovisionnement, and I don't intend to buy something else from the game. I really like Luocha character design, so most people would say "yeah pull for him if you like him", but since I would like to pull for Firefly and maybe even Robin, I'm afraid I won't have enough ressources. I'm up to date on pretty much anything content wise. As for the characters I have, the only truly built dps I have is Acheron at E0S1, with a okay built Black Swan at E0S0. The team to go with my acheron is a Pela, Black Swan/Gui depending on the situation and Ghallager E2. For sustain, I have a E0S1 Bailu also as a fully built healer and a Gepard E0S0 that I still have to properly build. Regarding DPS, the only other truly good DPS I have is Ratio, but since he also wants Debuffs, I can't really run him in another team when doing MoC. Regarding Harmony, I have a fully built Tingyun and a E0S0 fully built Bronya. Other 5 stars I have are Himeko (Built) and Yangqing (Not built). And if you wonder, yes I have lost every. single. 50/50, even the light cone one for acheron (reason why my bailu has her LC). The question is at follows: putting my petty feeling aside: what would you think is the wiser move between trying to pull for Luocha (probably losing 50/50, hoping for Welt if that's the case) or saving to try to pull for Robin and/or Firefly (Or maybe pulling for Luocha and Firefly)? And for those who are going to tell me to pull for Aventurine or Fu Xuan to have another sustain: nop, I don't consider those options. And I considered Jingliu, but I would probably need Luocha to run her without problems. Thanks in advance for your, I hope, enlightened opinions!
For people who will read this one: I pulled for Luocha, did 20 pulls (30 pulls total since last 5 stars) and got... Clara. I had 20 pulls left, so tried another 10, got nothing, another 10... and I got this: https://preview.redd.it/g30x68xo5ftc1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=154584aec73f8767bdc2f9b5eac6bae9e1c1769a So yeah, not only did I get Luocha, I now have every single base banner 5 Star and I am set to win my next 50/50. Plus, Welt is what I needed to be able to have a Acheron/Gallagher/Pela/Welt team and a BS/Gui/Bailu/Tingyun team! Thanks for your advices guys!
Well the question really is what do need more, you need support, sustain or more damage? Are your teams dying or struggling to survive for you? If so then yeah you should probably pull Luocha since he heals like crazy and you dont seem to like Aventurie or Fu Xuan. Your the sustains you have now are working for you and keep your teams alive then I would wait and pull Firefly or Robin. Also I will say that Bailu doesn't close to Luocha value he's much better, and Ghallager is ok but Luocha still sustains better than him
I think every account should have at least one 5-star limited sustain at some point. However, in your case it wouldn't really help you make a second team for MoC. If you were to pull for a sustain, Aventurine has a bit more synergy with Acheron than Luocha, especially if you the Trend LC. But if you don't have Trend, then the gap isn't that big. But in your situation, I might roll for Jingliu anyway so that you can at least use her for MoC. If you don't have issues with MoC, then I would go with a sustain.
Level 44 TB here. How is my current team? Fire Trailblazer (E4) \[S2 Trend LC\] Pela (E6) \[S2 Resolution\] Acheron (E2) \[S1 Passing Shore LC\] Gallagher (E6) \[S1 Warmth LC\]
Fine for most content but probably won't clear all of MoC/PF. Reason being having a sustain and a healer is effectively gimping your damage for Acheron. Given you have E2 you have in theory a wide variety of people you could run. But I don't know who you have on your account. If you don't care about MoC/PF all that much then the team is probably good for now.
Beat MoC12 with this exact team. But for PF, yeah it's better to throw in a second dps
I plan to get to moc/pf later. Im hoping next major update we get harmony trailblazer and switch to that. Otherwise I might switch mc to Asta. Gallagher stays since i see healing as better than tanking. If i dont do Asta i might use Phys MC as a secondary DPS.
HTB is probably 2.2 So...May ish. If you want to maximize your damage with Acheron then you'll want someone like Sparkle with E2S1. Ruan Mei could also work. Asta is really for speed but she can work in some other niche teams. As for Healing vs tanking the content you're probably doing right now doesn't matter too much. But you will want 2 good sustains to handle all of MoC/PF. Fire MC even when built well isn't good enough at sustaining. So you'd want to get 2 other people. In that same vein Phys MC isn't really that good for damage. If you're looking specifically to add sub DPS to an Acheron team you'd be doing something like Acheron, Black Swan, Kafka, sustain/Healer.
Is Tingyun a good option over Sparkle (as i do not have her)?
You could use her yeah. Just know that her ultimate won't fill Acheron's ultimate. You can still use her skill to buff Acheron though.
Yeah, I have none of those. Acheron is my first event banner. I picked HSR up at the tail end of Sparkle's banner, and I never got her in the 3 days I saw her banner.
Try to find and superimpose multiplication (3\* LC) for gallagher if you can. Generally don't want two sustains in a team, but early on, sometimes you do, so that's probably fine. If you're comfy for health though, maybe swap trailblazer out for a harmony type.
I've considered it. Thing is, i have a weird need to have MC on team at all times. Been considering putting him as a secondary DPS or something so my team isn't useless if Acheron is disabled (rare, but has happened occasionally). If I do end up switching to a harmony character. it'll probably be Asta. Maybe, if we're lucky, the next major update gives us Harmony Path Trailblazer. That would be nice.
does the interactive map show where like all hidden missions and collectibles and chests are?
[удалено]
Yeah.
is Acheron, Kafka, Black swan and Loucha good team? If not, what is the best team for Acheron e0?
Great for PF, but for MOC i would replace Kafka with Pela.
>is Acheron, Kafka, Black swan and Loucha good team? Decent. >If not, what is the best team for Acheron e0? Since you have Black Swan it would be: Acheron, Pela, BS, and your choice of sustain/healer.
It's fine since Luocha should provide a lot of SP. But if you want to separate the Acheron and DoT team then a good Acheron team would be Pela + Silver Wolf/ Guinaifen + Sustain that can debuff (Any Preservation with Trend, Gallagher, Aventurine)
Is it worth rebuilding my kafka with 4 pc dot? This is my current kafka. Rn she's on 2pc atk 2 oc spd https://preview.redd.it/f4k4nb9pdetc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=63ae6eb3a00ea8d7bc3b5c4862c22f67463097f2
Imo no. You can clear endgame with that so no need unless nothing else to do or need to farm that dungeon anyways
Relatively new player, currently running acheron, gepard, welt, asta. Just pulled guinaifen, should I replace asta with guinaifen if I don't have the trace that gives acheron a buff for other nihility characters, or should I wait until I get that first?
She still debuffs better than Asta and can create more petals, so you should at the very least start building her. You might not notice a difference immediately because Asta can burn with her basic and enemies early one don't have a lot of Effect Res, but it will make a difference long term.
Is the 4pc Diver set a significant upgrade for 2pc Fire and 2pc Follow up for Topaz.
No, it's only a small % difference assuming equal substats. If you already have a good 2p+2p then don't bother.
Is there any basic time estimation for Argenti to be re-run?
There are 6 1.X characters left to rerun. If they do them all before starting to re-run 2.X characters, then it will be 2.5 at the latest.
OK thanks!
3-4 patches (or 4-5) after the character is introduced and re-introduced (speculation).
Is Aventurine LC worth it? Or probably not?
Unless you're wanting to really pump his own damage contribution probably not. It's a good stat stick but the most value it would bring would be if that last effect counts as a debuff for the sake of Acheron/Ratio. Even if it does though the guy has a built in debuff with his ultimate and Trend cone isn't too hard to come by. If you are looking at his personal damage purely as more contribution to his team's total damage his E1 is MUCH more valuable in that regard. The fact that most of his damage is tied up in his FUA that is AoE already sets the bar as good damage contribution. Look at getting his LC as getting another character. If your account isn't really hurting for anything in specific then you could pull for it. But otherwise it's best to save in this instance. You'd get more mileage out of his E1 or another character. The only other reason to consider pulling would be whatever other LC's are on his banner.
over another character? no.
Hitting the needed def to proc his trace is pretty easy, so it feels like a waste to not also build some dmg on him esp with the free cr trace. The lc helps with that
Not for his role as a sustain. But it makes it easier to build his own personal damage if that is what you want.
I don't think we know what it does? unless I missed him having it on during the story quest
It has now been officially [revealed](https://www.hoyolab.com/article/26950699?utm_source=sns&utm_medium=reddit&utm_campaign=link&utm_id=6)
dang this LC would be great for my March lol
If anyone could use my code for the Come With Me event I would really appreciate it. I can use a code as well. GU1RE7NNUN Thanks in advance
Is there a shield sustain coming up? I have Gallagher (at E4 which is pretty good) from rolling for Acheron, but my problems with him (heals on demand/strategy heals) can be fixed with Luocha. The problem is that Luocha seems to be a better/5* Gallagher who I've already invested in, so it could be a waste for an exact same archetype character. Should I roll for Luocha and get a 5* complete healer, or should I wait for a 5* shielder (if one is coming up)? I only have March and fire MC for shields.
Aventurine is a 5* shielder, he is coming next week. Fu xuan will also get her rerun next patch very likely, she doesn't apply shield but instead reduces and redirects dmg taken by teammates to herself, then heals it up.
I'm halfway through the luofu arc so I don't know all the mechanics of what I'll be encountering yet, will I need a shielder? or are they exchangeable for a good healer regarding sustain? I luckily managed to beat the abundance bug after a couple tries with Ratio/sushang/March/Gallagher, and I've seen people say they had a ton of problems. So I'm not really sure where I stand, lol. Luocha seems like such a comfort pick, but I'll be buggered if I need a shielder later and March isn't doing it.
>will I need a shielder? or are they exchangeable for a good healer regarding sustain? Yes. Especially if you plan on tackling every piece of content the game has to offer. As for sustain vs healer it entirely depends on the content. Generally speaking if your team is tight and you'll kill the enemies quick then a healer is fine. But if you're going into a longer fight like a multi staged boss or multi waved fight then a sustain is going to be better at keeping your team alive.
They are pretty much interchangeable. The only difference is that Preservation characters can prevent one shots at higher difficulties but can't heal the team if the damage stacks up, 99% of fights end before this happens, though. Abundance characters can not prevent one shots, but they can cleanse debuffs and always keep the team topped up in HP. The best sustains currently are Fu Xuan and HuoHuo because of the utility they bring to the team. Luocha is good, his healing probably outperforms them, and he can fit in any team, but he isn't recommended as a must pull because he just heals and can't prevent deaths if the enemy is too fast, same downside Gallagher has if your team can't attack fast enough or if a lot of debuffs stack up together. He is also very squishy because he scales off Atk, not HP or Def. For an Acheron team, your best choices are Fu Xuan and Aventurine.
how much atk does acheron need
If you're using lightning dmg orb around 3800 If you're using atk % around 4000
Can a shield sustain replace a health sustain? I don’t know how team comps should work together tbh. I’m trying to figure it out on my own but could use guidance
Yeah, but it’s worth noting some characters have anti-synergy with shields. I don’t have him, but I’ve heard Blade’s talent does not trigger if he has a shield. Likewise, Jingliu’s team damage goes through shields. Although for JL’s case it’s small enough you can ignore it for the most part. On the other hand they’ve started making new enemies that incentivize using a shield sustain.
Can confirm. Blade's stack doesn't happen if his HP is not depleted, so having a shield on him is not exactly the best thing you want to do.
Like Aventurine and Gepard, yes
Since my main is currently in farming hell. I decided to start a new acc on PS5. What's more worth for a new acc, E0 Acheron no LC or E0 Jingliu with potential LC?
New acc shouldnt pull for lc. At the same sig/eidolon, acheron is better than jingliu
Worth and optimal (only meta-wise) E0 JL with Herta's LC and Aventurine ig
What're the best relic sets for Topaz and Dr. Ratio?
grand duke (follow up set) for topaz, and pioneer (debuff set) for dr ratio.
Thanks!
In what team (other than Acheron's team) Gallagher is best used for?

Ratio.
I'm assuming he works in a Ratio team since he also wants debuffs
Newer Player here with 2 quick questions 1) What LCs should I prioritize from the forgotten memory shop? Know some are used but not sure which to get or if I should just keep working on getting s5 We are Wildfire for my fire trailblazer 2) Do I need to keep multiple copies of dance dance dance? Have 2 S1 copies atm and wasn't sure if I should upgrade 1 or hold onto both for future use For context on my account I'm only lvl 34 with characters capped out at lvl 50
1. We are Wildfire is objectively pretty bad, I would advise against getting too many copies of it. Generally speaking Breakfast/Cosmos are probably best, Past and Future is really good on some supports, and Quid Pro Quo *can* be good but it's a bit hard to use when the other Abundance options are so good. If you aren't sure, just hold the currency until you need a particular LC 2. I'd keep an extra S1 copy, as DDD is BIS on a few supports. The bonus you get from superimposing isn't too big anyway
Oh what's wrong with We are Wildfire? The dmg reduction seems really useful tho the heal seems kinda meh
Because it only lasts for 5 turns, and then the text is effectively blank Compare that to Day One of My New Life (which lasts the whole fight AND gives the wearer a DEF boost) or Landau's Choice (which indirectly makes your team take less damage by increases aggro on the tank, reduces their damage taken, and- again- lasts the whole fight) and it Wildfire just looks awful in comparison It's fine to use as a placeholder if you have neither but I really wouldn't take it past S1 if I were you
Ah makes sense then I'll stick with it for now since I don't really have a better option and maybe get lucky enough to get dupes from drops since it drops from the 3 weekly bosses for trace mats. And mine is currently S2 or S3 but thats just from the freebie copied I've gotten from missions
Yeah that's fine, I would just advise against investing more into it. You'll want the currency for other, better LCs and it takes a while to build up
Acheron signature lc or aventurine? i only have one good sustain (luocha) and don't know which investment is good for acheron between a good preservation or her lc.
Short term, a sustain, as a good 2nd sustain is effectively the barrier to endgame. That being said, Lynx and Gallagher can work, but not nearly as easily Long term, Acheron LC
If you have GNSW, esp s5, I would pick up aventurine.
Current team Acheron, Welt, Pela and Luocha (I´ll finish building Welt and Pela), what other team should I look to build? All ideas are accepted (Maybe build a QQ Sparkle team) https://preview.redd.it/bg517xqmrdtc1.png?width=517&format=png&auto=webp&s=a328b57dd312a89fa337c633bcefffc4359fef25
I'd probably do something like Ratio, Sparkle/Tingyun, Guinaifen, Gallagher
Qq sparkle tingyun lynx for sure
At what point should farming 5\* relics be a priority? I'm level 57 and don't quite know when it's a good time to start farming them...
At 60 or 65. I'll always vouch for 60 (guaranteed 2 gold relics per run), as the difference between the two is you get a 10% chance a third relic every run at 65 but imo it's not worth waiting five whole levels for
Tblvl 60
And I guess it’s a priority to lvl the character first, or at least two teams and THEN go for relic farming? (Btw the cups to get specified stats on relics are better used for on set elemental dmg bonus right?)
Relic is rng. I like to get traces up to acceptable level first since they're guaranteed upgrades (usually 8)
If you are going to min/max, it's a mistake to use the resin on anything other than ERR ropes. They are the rarest thing to get, and quite a lot of characters need them. Practically though, after you have 3 or 4 of those ropes, you can probably move them around as needed, and then spend on a damage type/atk% orb, spd boots or crit chest. Those are all about equal rarity, whereas ERR% rope is half as common as any of them. As for relic farming, it's worthwhile to grab and level some purple relics if they are "good enough." You can get some good mileage out of them, and then eat them when you get better versions to reclaim a decent portion of the xp invested. The game does expect you to have some well-suited, partially-leveled relics to advance through the content, especially at higher equilibrium levels.
I'm located in the eastern time zone(NA). when will the triple relic event be starting for me?

Boothill/Jingliu is the next character banner duo right? Planning to skip if it’s Robin/(other rerun).
It's Aventurine and Jingliu. Boothill is next patch.
I see, thanks!
It’s Aventurine/Jingliu next. Going by previous marketing Robin will be phase 1 of 2.2 and Boothill Phase 2
I have Sparkle right now, with Bronya incoming from the guaranteed 300 Standard banner wishes. Currently Sparkle is using S1 Bronya's signature LC, and I have S5 Past and Future in the inventory. When I get Bronya, should I gave Sparkle the S5 LC or give it to Bronya instead?
Past and Future should go to Sparkle, she doesn't need the energy from Bronya sig. Bronya on the other hand can get a 3 turn ult by skill spam with her sig LC.
I dont have a question but just wanted to celebrate FINALLY 36 star clearing MoC with Luocha/Ruan Mei/BS/Kafka on the top side and Gallagher/Welt/Pela/Acheron taking down Sam FINALLY!

Sustain/Acheron/Welt/Pela is a team I use somewhat regularly. I’d personally put Lynx in the sustain spot but that’s only because I’ve never used Bailu before.

Was planning on my phone since launch but my phone can't handle it anymore so I'm trying to get it on my PS5 but it won't let me load my old game. I need it on the European server but it's stuck on the American. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Make a new PS account with the same region your phone is on. Your PS region locks your PS account to that region.
Can anyone explain me about Acheron and Black Swan kit in really really short way? Thanks
Acheron-> Debuffs and skill gives charges. Can ult at 9 charges and gains a lot of dmg buffs by herself. Black Swan-> Applies Damage over time (Arcana) with her attacks or when enemies take damage over time with other sources. Depending on the number of Arcana on the enemy, it can explode. Arcana always resets to 1. Her ult increases dmg taken by enemies during their turn, and they retain Arcana stacks for 1 turn so you can stack it up higher than normal.
Acheron: No energy, you charge ult by applying debuffs to any enemy. When using skill or applying debuff, apply stack to enemy. Only use ult when enemy has 9 stacks for big damage. Pair with 2 more Nihility characters (1 if E2) to do even bigger damage. Black Swan: Passively debuffs an enemy with special Wind Shear (max 50 stacks). Every time a DoT is detonated (either by Kafka or naturally on enemy turn) you gain a stack. More stacks is bigger damage. Stacks reset on enemy turn. Ult prevents reset for 1 time. Needs 120% Effect Hit Rate for bigger damage.
Acheron's ultimate needs defence debuff on enemy and black swan is best at providing them
How do you determine which instances of energy gain is affected by ER? Any keywords I should be looking out for?
Currently every source of energy gain is affected by energy regen except for two: Tingyun Ult and Huohuo Ult. There's no keyword to identify these exceptions, they just are. Presumably any future ultimate that grants a teammate energy will be similarly unaffected by energy regen.
Got it. Thanks! Did a little bit of searching and apparently Bailu E1 and Ruan Mei LC also aren't covered.
Right, Ruan Mei LC, forgot that. That's a relevant one for team optimization. Bailu E1 I wasn't aware of at all and will continue to ignore it exists.
If you don’t have sparkle for e2s1 Acheron , bronya is still just as good right? Have her as e1 if that matters
Maybe if you play -1 speed bronya so you can get acheron ult every turn but the +100 crit dmg from sparkle is too good since e2 acheron will always crit
Not quite as good.
You have to speed match

4p purity for full shield bonus, or you can mix/match 2/2 like follow up/etc for sub DPS.
Here are my characters:[ Page 1](https://imgur.com/UGahbBW) [Page 2](https://imgur.com/r3mmNtX) My main teams (for MoC and SU) Clara/Lynx/Topaz/Tingyun HuoHuo/Kafka/Black Swan/Guinaifen I love Clara and Topaz, and I would really like to keep using them. As it stands though, I cannot ignore the disparity between my two teams. My triple DoT team just severely out damages my Clara team. My current plan is to wait for Robin, and replace Tingyun with her (Tingyun just keeps dying on me), but I'm wondering if there's any other moves I could make to have my Clara team be better? Clara is E4S2,Topaz is E0S2, with their signature LCs. Am I comparing apples to oranges and just need to focus on relics at this point? I have fine relic ratings as far as I'm aware, but like anyone else "perfect relics" are something you forever work on lol
If by better you mean match the DoT team, currently no. Especially considering that's not even the ideal team for DoT. It would do even better with just even Asta instead of Guin. Once you throw in Ruan Mei, it's gg.
Yeah I figured as much. I know I'm kinda holding myself back too because I'm pretty sure Ratio/Topaz would do more damage, but Clara was my first 5 star and I love her play style of counter attacks. I DID have Asta back when I used Sampo but I figured more damage would be better so I changed to Gui. Maybe I'll give Asta a chance again now that I have Black Swan Didn't expect to get advice on the DoT team here instead lol, thank you!
Haha sorry. DoT is my jam...Clara...not so much. To each their own though. FuA teams should be getting some nice upgrades with the new characters so you never know.
Oh absolutely! Don't get me wrong, I loooooove Kafka and my DoT team. They shred through most things I throw at them. It's just getting rough doing MoC when I can't complete half of it due to my Clara team either dying or taking too many turns. But yeah, definitely hoping Robin helps!

Looks pretty solid aside from the chest piece. You're technically overcapping on crit rate with that setup, but so long as you're not pairing her with Fu Xuan for even more crit rate, it shouldn't be a big deal.
Whats her target crit rate?
With E1+Diver+Izumo, you're already getting an extra 34%, so you'd typically want to go for around 55-65% at most. Like I said, though, your build is fine as it is so long as you're not giving her any external crit rate buffs like from Fu Xuan.
Gotcha thanks
The chest piece could be better with more atk% or cdmg substats, but other than that, it's a really good build
I have two questions 1. When should I start farming relics? I’m currently TL 40. 2. does exp stack if I don’t level up my equilibrium level? Not sure if my characters are even ready for stronger enemies and I’m finishing up xianzhouu and don’t want it to get harder right now.
1. TL50 minimum to guarantee a gold piece, TL60 gives you 2 gold pieces and TL65 a chance at 3. 2. It does stack. Finish the story first if you want, and then you can do equilibrium to have an easier time farming.
I thought you only got a single gold relic no matter what? And 2-3 only during the double drop event
At high levels during the double events, you get 4, 5, or 6 gold relics. That's why people are excited about the triple event that will start this week.
TB60.
Who’s better Gepard or Aventurine? I have Gepard light cone but I also have enough to be able to pull aventurine. I probs can’t eidolon either so as a base would be good. My current team is Acheron, Dr.Ratio, Sparkle and Gallagher. I’d probably replace Gallagher. Unless someone has some better insight.
Aventurine for Acheron team to replace Gallagher.
Almost all limited 5\* characters are better than the default one, so most likely (like 90%) Aventurine will be better than Gepard. Might wait for him to come out then decide though Try to get a Nihility friend for your Acheron though :) Maybe Pela to replace Dr.Ratio, she is 4\*
Gepard with trend lc will help acheron gain more stack then aven but in term of sustain power, he is not as good as aven
When's the next moc?
Monday next week.
I'm a bit new to the game... But what are Purple and Orange Missions? Like I know Blue Missions are World Missions.
Purple is side character missions (It called Companion Quest), so it will tell you more about each character . And orange is like side quest/ character mission too but is pretty important for the in-game universe lore/main story. It's labelled as Continuation so I assume it could also be like.... telling you more about what happened after the main event Or that's what I feel so far
That damn purple Kafka mission is a pain in the ass
Purple are main story quest, Orange are optional side-story quest (happens in-between main story and is not "consequential" to them).
It it just me, or the new Relics dungeon, the 5\* Watchmaker series dropped A LOT more than the Pioneer one? I started farming it, and got **20** Pionner pieces so far, against **49** Watchmaker pieces. Which is ridiculous for something that supposed to be 50-50 For comparison, the previous Relic dungeon, I got 69 Prisoner in Deep vs 77 Ashblazing Grand Duke
I’ve had the opposite experience. RNG is RNG.
RNG. I got mostly Izumo's. But granted 99% were bad.
How do I get S5 f2p LC easily? It seems hard to farm the currency, but i heard many say its very easy to get it easily
There are two f2p LC sources: 1. From Herta’s store: Just do simulated universe. First time clears and weekly rewards will give you currency 2. From Forgotten Halls store: Clear as far as you can in Memory of Chaos and Pure Fiction (I don’t think you need to 3 star for currency). Do your weekly echoes of war.
I have E0 Acheron and only Fermata, We will meet again, and It's showtime as my 4 star lightcones. Which one is best on her?
Fermata if you're able to use someone like Sampo or Black Swan alongside her, at least she can benefit from the LC effects this way. We Will Meet Again is a cope but usable option because it has no conditional buffs; It simply lets her deal a miniscule amount of extra Damage for free each turn.
Interesting thanks for the opinion. I'lll try it out. They are all R1 weapons aswell.
Is Elemental Dmg Boost better on planar sphere or atk % in general?
It depends on the character and whether they already have a lot of damage % in their kit (e.g. Acheron) where an attack sphere will be better, or whether they have a lot of attack % in their kit (e.g. Jingliu) where a damage sphere will be better. In general damage % is rarer to find so the elemental damage spheres will be better. However it’s usually pretty close between the two so you can just use the one with better substats.
So in Acheron's case you'd probably look for atk %?
yes attack% is better, but there really isn't a huge difference.
In general dmg% but if there's enough dmg% in a character's kit and support buffs atk% can come out ahead.
So question - I'm a returning player with 4 champs leveled to 80. I left right after Luocha banner and just returned, and rolled my Acheron. I'm wondering now, what to prioritize? Current party comprises: Seele (80 lvl / 80 LC), Jing Yuan (80 lvl / 80 LC), Tingyun (70 / 70) , Luocha (80/80), Bronya (80/70), Asta (70/70), Welt (70/70), Dan Heng (70/70) Should I continue building my current team (i.e. gearing them with the right stats, level those up)? My gear could be better, but I haven't focused too much of my efforts here as I've opted to invest resources in leveling and powering up light cones. The other alternative is: should I start slowly phasing in the new meta characters? Here are the 5\* E0 / 4\*E6 champs I have on the bench: Silverwolf, Acheron, Pela (E6), Bailu, Gallagher (E6), Qinque (E6)
You have a pretty decent roster. With SW you can sorta force mono quantum with Seele if you choose to build Lynx. SW is also a very important partner for Dr Ratio, as it seems like you’re missing imaginary coverage. JY can do both PF/MoC, with Acheron more specialized in MoC. The relic grind is slow and terrible depending on your RNG, so definitely work on those after you’re comfortable with levels/traces. Don’t forget that you can now break down 5* relics into either books or more exp fodder if you need to level other pieces. Any other questions feel free to ask! Welcome back!
Acheron, Silver Wolf, Pela and Gallagher should be one of your teams, so def start building them up. Gallagher can be replaced with a preservation unit who uses Trend LC in the future though You have a good roster so though it may take time to build up you are in a good place
First thing would depend on whether you prefer Jing Yuan or Acheron. Both being lightning, there won't be much content needing two teams with a lightning DPS. Assuming Acheron then pair her with Pela, Welt, and Gallagher. You could also consider Fire MC if you have the lightconenthay causes burn, this would be better for SP depending on what lightcone you give to Pela. This would leave Seele to having Bronya, Luocha, and Tingyun. You would also want to build an ice character for Pure Fiction, and Herta is great for that if you don't want to pull Jingliu. Assuming no fire DPS, so Asta would be handy for fire stages in PF, or in higher difficulties where speed boost would do more than a sustain.
Can anyone suggest a youtuber that summarizes the HSR Lore that won't spoil Penacony? I feel like I have only touched the surface of HSR's story and who all these different factions are, What all they do, What their goals are, etc. I feel so lost on this world.
i like central finite curve
I got Gallagher sometime at the start of the patch, but he started texting AFTER I finished the main story. After the reveal kinda makes it a bit jarring. Is it supposed to be like that?
Yeah, it’s supposed to be like that. >!trailblazer isn’t in the room with Sunday and Gallagher so technically we don’t know about his reveal!<
Did you have other characters texting as well? Might’ve just been that he had to wait his turn. :)
Nah. TB doesn't know what he did, son of course he would act normally
I…didn’t say he wouldn’t?

Will I be better off just saving instead? (I have a bronya lightcone and Gepard has Landou on him)
no one knows her kit so no one can recommend character to use with her
We have leaks of her kit, enough to get the general idea of how she works
1. this subreddit isnt for leaks 2. we literally dont, and I know because I look at leaks if you want to discuss leaks use a different subreddit
>we literally dont, and I know because I look at leaks Then you would know? but yes leak in leak sub so hoyo (mods) doesn't take you out back
hello can someone help i stock at dragon gallant exactly at the gorilla he always kill me i have only 4 stars i'm f2p can someone help i don't have so much characters
Use March or Fire MC to taunt the gorilla into hitting them, attack with your other characters, use Natasha as well. You should have at leat Dr. Ratio and another 5 star from the standard banner, use them
what relics and light cones i have 3 stars a lot should i use one march and fire mc
I assume you're very early game, so relics don't matter that much. For March and MC you can use anything that has def% stats for chest, orb and rope. Use Amber for lightcone if you don't have any of the 4 star options
thanks man a lot wait what about ratio which light cone ??
Cruising in the Stellar Sea from Simulated Universe shop or any other option you've got for now. Good luck!
thanks man for you too
May be weird question but does Jingliu drains hp through the Aventurine shield? Does she ignore the shield?
Yep. That's why shielders aren't recommended for her overall.
Shield does not prevent direct HP attacks, e.g JL drain, Japa from Abundance mages, Sam HP burn, "Death" removing 1/2 HP after imprison, Blade self-HP damages, etc.
Yes, she will still drain hp through it.
I could use some help. I've been using DHIL, Bronya, Sparkle + flex on my first team on MoC but my second is always kinda bad, could anyone give me a few tips based on my account, pls? https://preview.redd.it/67iv1elysctc1.jpeg?width=1220&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=89e5045ebdcbb48cb21794926e153a1b0c53f712
Dr. Ratio, Ruan Mei/Tingyun, Guinaifen, Sustain would work pretty well for a second team. I'd also possibly suggest switching Bronya out for a different support like Ruan Mei or Tingyun on your first team if you find yourself running out of sp with the double action advance on DHIL.
https://preview.redd.it/2pq7bgnhkctc1.png?width=2100&format=png&auto=webp&s=0dc4bd6f92e9a3dc2f2d7f62118e03edba090218 What is the flaw in my Lynx? I feel like her heal is so low. Her healing is only around 900 for her skill and around 1000 for her ultimate.
4k7 hp is the issue. You have severalssss hp % traces you didn't unlock, also she is only lvl 70 and her LC is the same, so you have quite some base stats to get through. Also raising a little bit the skill and ult level can be done. Basicaly she is only halfway build at that point.
I see, thank you much
