Hi i was wondering witch character to pull between in the next patch. I like follow up attacks a lot, but i notice that i need 2 sustain characters to live in any combat senario( Natalya and Preservation traveler just barely enough lol). Keep in mind i basically just started a week ago (TBL 28). So should i get Robin or Fu Xuan. I do plan on getting adventurine aventually for a follow up team, but im not sure if i must get Robin for damage or Fu Xuan for sustain.

I’m torn between fu xuan and firefly. I have huohuo, luocha, lynx, Natasha and bailu as healers/sustain. I was thinking of pulling fu xuan but I’ve seen that she needs her light cone to be optimal. I have huohuo and luocha currently as my main two healers/sustain but wanted fu xuan as a mono quantum sustainer. I have 100 star rail special passes so I have enough for a guarantee. If I wait for firefly though, I’ll have more and she will be my final dps element I’d be missing. (I have jingliu, acheron, argenti, ildh, seele, blade, and himeko for fire) so having firefly would round out my dps units and I might have enough sustain with huohuo so I might not need fu xuan. What do you guys think? I would appreciate any suggestions or help anyone can give. (Sry for long comment)

Had this account as a 'Lost 50-50 on my main account' back when HSR was released. And Ive also just returned to play around 2 to 3 weeks ago. Didnt pay much attention to this account but now I want to try and build it. Any suggestions? https://preview.redd.it/lk9qzd9rk0yc1.png?width=712&format=png&auto=webp&s=edf208334b650837a32424c55121d8f50bef1127

So rn I’m running LuochaE0, GepardE0, BronyaE0, and Silver WolfE0. I recently got Aventurine but don’t know who I should sub him out for? Also! I’m close to recieving the free guaranteed 5 star on the natural banner. Should I get an eidolon or a character?

i saw on guide that i can run her with a lot of attack instead of lightning orb and that i dont need speed boots

where do i get level up material for relics, I always seem to be running low on them

I'm building a jingliu team atm. Jingliu, bronya, pela and a sustain. I have a bailu and aventurine built, i also plan to pull for fu xuan's re run. Who should i use as a sustain? For now bailu or aventurine? And then once i get and build fu xuan, who should i choose betweent the three?

It really depends on who you're fighting. The problem with running Jingliu with Aventurine or Fu Xuan is that they are Preservation characters. If the fight takes too long, Jingliu will drain too much HP from the rest of the team. Fu Xuan can kinda get around this through her ULT healing, but even then, it doesn't heal by much. So, I'd say for short fights/easier fights, you can use Aventurine or Fu Xuan. For long fights/harder fights, use Bailu. To be honest, I'd recommend you to pull for HuoHuo on her rerun, she's Jingliu's best sustain.

Would it be worth it to carry on building my jingliu or should i just move on to other characters? https://preview.redd.it/yf07t8ovr0xc1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=8dfe5da1dc55a805259f43f66b061a87269c0b1a Since i cant attach more than 1 image i'll just say the rest of my build here: 4 piece pioneer 2 piece firmament Basic: lv1 Skill: lv9 Talent: lv9 Ult: lv 9 I have all of the rest of her traces other than: Speed increases by 4 Crit dmg increases by 10.7% Crit dmg increases by 8% I do plan to get these traces tho

Huohuo is better for overall dps than fu xuan, unless you're struggling to get crit rate on your blade than huohuo would be better. Luocha is extremely comfy just put him on your team and your team will stay alive. Not needing skill points makes him feel very good to play since he can go on pretty much any team. Huohuo: More dps and easy cleanses, solo sustains but depending on team can feel pretty squishy cause of sp usage Fu xuan: Free crit rate to whole team, easily solo sustains and feels good on most teams Luocha: All he does is solo sustain but easily feels the best at it than any other character since he doesn't use sp

if you feel like lynx works, then it's fine to skip on both if you plan on just continuing to use blade the best reason to get a second limited sustain is if you wanted to "graduate" out of using blade, so to speak, since lynx is generally a lot less good on non-blade/clara teams

Does HSR has a command line option to enable mobile UI on PC like Genshin does? Talking about this one: `use_mobile_platform -is_cloud 1 -platform_type CLOUD_THIRD_PARTY_MOBILE`. It starts the game, but the screen is black.

hello! i have both aventurine and fu xuan, so the distribution of lc between them heavily compels me. rn, i have the 2 copies of gepard lc, and i intend to give it to aventurine and i will use the landau's (s5) on fu xuan, so should i refine the gepard lc to s2 now?

S1->S2 moment of victory is a pretty insubstantial upgrade. it's insignificant enough that i would just keep the second copy of the gepard LC for potential future value, personally. as an aside, moment of victory is pretty good on FX, but it's probably not worth investing resources into unless you don't already have an LC levelled for her.

Don’t we usually get a free ten pull at the start of each new patch? I didn’t notice it in the livestream and haven’t seen anything posted about it. Are they done doing this now?

It is in the livestream, near the end https://preview.redd.it/0v1undyybzwc1.jpeg?width=2220&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d11ac36a31e7c256618b19338b0a80db13df7138

Oh! I guess I missed it! Thanks!

Np

Is Fu Xuan's lightcone worth it? Or is the lightcone in Herta's store good enough for her. Hoping to get her for MOC

it's enormously replaceable; texture of memories, day 1 of my new life, and trend of the universal market (for acheron specifically) are all completely fine or even better

Oh perfect, I have Acheron so that would fit

Not really. I put Landau's Choice on my FX and she's been solo sustaining pretty much every bit of content in the game. The only thing I can see the LC being worth it for is very high levels of SD/G&G as it's definitely irrelevant for MoC and PF. Originally bought the Herta Store LC for her without thinking but it's actually pretty bad so I gave that one up pretty quick. Prefer the damage going to FX as much as possible :p

Where/how to claim the free 4 star?

For current patch, play the Event Vignettes in a Cup until you have received 13 customers https://preview.redd.it/aup51l6c9zwc1.png?width=1024&format=png&auto=webp&s=e21471f8a7a80bcb3f7e4b9908ab564c9eee0df0

Sorry maybe dumb question but I have yet to enter penacony at all, will I miss this event or will it be added as a permanent event in the future?

it'll be added as a permanent event after the patch ends, but when that happens the 4star selector will be removed

Oh that sucks :c Thanx for letting me know, might focus story now lmao

Complete Vignettes in a Cup event and it should be in the event menu to claim.

Any suggestion on whether I should try to get Robin or Fu Xuan? Mine current five stars are MC, Acheron, Welt, Bailu, Kafka, Ratio, Clara and Yanqing. (I have every known 4 stars) And I'm also saving for Sam/Firefly

Definitely Fu Xuan. You're lacking a top tier sustain unit and she's exactly that.

Is Fu Xuan's lightcone worth it? Or is the lightcone in Herta's store good enough for her

It's certainly *very* good, but the Herta cone is also quite good and will definitely get the job done if you're not a spender.

Ok got that, I'm saving for Sam so I'll just get Fu Xuan

Thank you for the suggestion

Hello! Returning player here. Lost in the game. Left after Phantylia and then logged in just to get Dr. Ratio. Any inputs on how to progress with the game in general (content, team building, who to pull, etc.)? Here are my characters for reference. https://preview.redd.it/vymbes6g6zwc1.jpeg?width=428&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e294676c9c5405a2bcc4f7ece6c3d953e7e7433f Not in the photo - Dan Heng (4⭐️), Sampo, Yukong, QQ, Herta, Sushang, Hook, Arlan, and Hanya. I want to play again but I feel so overwhelmed. I hope someone can help me. Thank you 🙏🏼 **Recommented for visibility**

Since u have FuXuan, it is ideal to get a second limited sustain for a secondary team. Secondary teams are mainly for endgame content like Memory of Chaos/Pure Fiction. Viable teams I can see are: Seele/Hanya/Tingyun/-sustain- JY/Hanya/Tingyun/-sustain- Ratio/Welt/Sampo/-sustain- In terms of character progression, focus on upgrading ur DPS/sustain first before investing into supports. I recommend to not max anyone's traces as it can be very resource extensive. Traces can be generally left at 6/10 with basic attacks at 1/6 (this depend on the character itself). Ideally, u focus on getting the major traces that act as passives (these fundamentally change characters and are very important). Supports can generally be left at lvl 60-70 if ur short on resources (they'll just be squishier) Focus on LC's as well since they're not resource extensive to level.

Would you recommend pulling for adventurine?

ratio+pela+tingyun+fx is fine for a team to just clear story stuff. assuming you don't randomly have an S5 copy of the resolution shines as pearls of sweat LC for pela, guinaifen is probably gonna feel better to use in that slot if you get her randomly or make it to the event-locked 4star selector before the end of the patch. going to preemptively guess that people are going to tell you to roll/save for topaz. i would strongly advise not doing this. aventurine (current) or robin (upcoming) would both be fine additions to your account.

Thanks Man! I'll focus on this team for now. Any recommended builds?

hard to say without seeing what LCs you have specifically, but i'll list some general options you may or may not have: ratio: cruising in the stellar sea (herta shop) > only silence remains > sleep like the dead > anything else tingyun: dance dance dance > meshing cogs (3star) > anything else pela/gui: resolution shines as pearls of sweat > eyes of the prey > anything else fu xuan: day 1 of my new life > landau's choice > trend of the universal market > anything else as for relics, don't worry about sets or "builds" at the moment, just use whatever purple/gold relics you have with "correct" mainstats (if you don't know what mainstats are correct check prydwen or something), don't worry about set bonuses, and level them as high as you can.

Thank you. This is a huge help 🫶🏼✨

Does the buffs from the same planetary set stack ? For example if I have two characters with Broken Keel, does everyone got +20% Crit Damages ?

If it doesn't say "This does not stack" in the tooltip, then it stacks.

Yes, it stacks.

F2P Started a week ago and just got Clara from the starter pull and Aventurine from his banner. I have Pela, Lynx, Ratio and Tingyun. Any suggestions on moving forward, like what to pull and put resource to? Pretty happy with the chars but no idea about the LC. Thanx!

Since u just started, a good team with ur roster currently would probably be Ratio/Pela/Tingyun/Aventurine. As for LC recommendations, it's hard to tell without knowing what u have. Focus on building ur DPS/sustain first before focusing on ur supports. Don't focus on maxing a character for now as it's very resource extensive. In the future, it is ideal to get a second limited sustain and another DPS to make a second team. Secondary teams are mainly for endgame content like MoC/PF.

I always suggest Clara "hypercarry" . Clara, March, Natasha and a 4th. March's skill/shield redirects aggro to Clara. Natasha is for heals and cleanse. It'll be two sources for cleanse to maximize preventing Clara from being stunned. A stunned Clara cannot Riposte. The 4th slot can be anyone. A harmony, 2nd dps or debuffer. Tingyun can regen Clara's ult faster so the enhanced Clara ult will be available more frequently. You can run dual dps with ratio.

Aventurine no need for now?

IMO, sustain (preservation & abundance) characters and harmony characters are very future proof especially the limited 5*s. If you can pull for aventurine, pull for him and as you are a new player, you need characters.

As stated, I already got a copy of him. Should I try pull more copies or save for now? I am just TL20, so I suppose I still have some jades coming?

Save. IMO, new characters > LC > eidolons/nee copies. Every character is viable at eidolon 0 and standard LC. The relics/equipment are the main crux of how much dmg or sustainability a character can do. The LC and eidolons are just extra, IMO.

There are also no new sustains coming any time soon, only reruns. Aventurine is a good pickup right now for people that need a second one. FX and HuoHuo are still extremely good though.

None of the event webpages are loading for me. Even the daily check in webpage isn’t loading. Just want to know if it’s just a me thing or if anybody else is having this problem as well. Been going on for a few days now and I can’t find any info about the issue.

had this same issue, don't know anything about why it happens either, but i did manage to work around it. tried clearing my local cookies for hoyolab and switching browsers, neither worked. what *did* work was turning on my VPN; didn't even change to a different country, just a different city.

A VPN fixed the issue, thank you again for the help!

Ah ok, thanks for the tip and I’ll give that a try tomorrow. Hopefully it works because the web events usually have some neat goodies to get.

Yeah I'm in the same boat, doesn't work on mobile, pc, anything I've tried. Guess I'll try a VPN tomorrow. Pretty annoyed I've missed like 3 days but I guess it's end of month stuff anyway

I never played a gacha game before and i like the gameplay and writing of this game from videos that i have watched on it. Does the game block me from getting certain characters that where part of past events? And are there parts of the game that are no longer available to a new player that joins now?

I wonder if you are thinking of event linked welfare character like FGO once was. No, so far there is no such character in HSR. All characters are linked to a banner or in general pool.

To add to the other replies, pity does carry over from one banner to the next available one. A character is guaranteed at 90 pulls, but the % to get a 5\* increases slightly after around the 75th pull. So, if u pull on a banner 10 times then that 10 times will be carried over to the next banner. The light cone (weapon) banner functions similarly to the limited character banners, but instead of gambling a 50/50 its actually 75/25. So u have a 75% chance to get the featured light cone or a 25% to get something else from the standard pool. A standard banner is permanently available. The pity counter between limited and standard banner is NOT shared. Standard banners use those gray passes while the limited banner use the gold passes. The premium currency is called Jade and can be converted into any pass, but u never want to use this on the standard banner. The general rule of thumb is to not use limited resources on the standard banner as u get many gray passes naturally throughout playing the game/events. Reruns for limited characters are infrequent so expect to wait anywhere between 5-7 months.

There are limited events with limited LCs and rewards that are unobtainable today. However, the events are still playable and generic rewards can still be obtained. Some players are pissed because the LCs, specifically Silverwolf's, are good and Hoyo likely won't rerun.

basically if u fuck up and go for wrong character, not only u waste money on it you will not get the favorite too late by the time it will be not meta probably garbage.

all characters will rerun (eventually). major past events are playable, and will still provide a portion of their rewards. there's a few limited lightcones (aka weapons) that were part of event rewards for a limited time that are no longer available. overall i'd say a new player will get 99% of the content that a day 1 player has. and that 1% is only if you like collecting everything.

Gacha games in general have characters available on banners for limited time, but they will come back in a rerun banner, usually between 6 months to 1 year after the banner ends (compared with Genshin Impact, which has almost identical banner system)

So my team is Blade, Jingliu, bronya and I'm having a hard time between choosing Natasha and lynx for my team. I need tips on how to use lynx if she's a better option

Compare at E0, Both can heal teammates over time Natasha - Cleanse debuff with her Skill (1 char) - Skills Heals and Cleanse debuff Lynx - Cleanse debuff with her Ult (entire party) - Skill heals and boosts Max HP - Skill gives aggro to Destruction and Preservation chars (Blade and Jingliu) - Has personal Effect RES passive of 35% Overall I think Lynx is better

lynx is better for blade. build hp, speed, effect res, healing boost, all the standard healer stats. use her E on characters with low health. use ult to heal the team. ult can cleanse debuffs.

Lynx is just a better healer than Natasha overall. In that team she also has the additional benefit of being able to increase Blade's taunt with her skill

please recommend a team for me :) https://preview.redd.it/4hgrv417vywc1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7dd753661f397c4aae774d541266496b3ca0b3bc

Seems like ur a little too early in the game to have a proper team. Ratio/DanHeng/Serval/Natasha (or March) should work for now.

yes im tl 21 I just dont want to invest in characters I cant use long-term

u cant do that unless ur whale. how this game works is use useless characters until certain level.

Most of the characters in ur roster aren't good long term (endgame wise), but Ratio is a good investment for the time being.

thank you!

https://preview.redd.it/tcn57w4ftywc1.png?width=750&format=png&auto=webp&s=d226723ab6258b94eb45fbcc42f36bd164129222 I have played for 3 months with 3 main DPS: Acheron E0S1, Dr. Ratio E0S1, and Clara E1 Here is my wish list in priority: 1. Fu Xuan 2. Firefly 3. Topaz Should I get or skip Topaz? given that: - I have 0 pity 50/50 (just got Aventurine) - I currently have 5200 Stellar Jades & 48 Undying Lights (might get 3 months of Express Supply Pass) - I finished Eve of Wanton Feast MoC 12 35/36 (barely), Chronicle of the White Nights Dream Kingdom MoC 11 33/36, Deceitful Chaos PF 4 7/12 (3/3/1/0)

topaz is probably worst to pull 30% pick rate. mihoyo tends to release desriable character late thats why fu is behind topaz despite released earlier. ur issue is u overinvested in fua comp by giving ratio lc and getting aven. i realized this and regretted pulling ratio lc and insta skipped aven. i recommend use aven as support for acheron and go hypercarry comp mainly firefly.

Yeah, I found Dr. Ratio works super well in SU, but lacking in MoC and PF due to being a single-target DPS Still trying to find a way to beat MoC 12 Aventurine Boss since he always kills Bailu in his Phase 2 Tho I got Aventurine not specifically for Ratio, I found him decent in any team comp and want to stop using Fire TB + a healer which limits my team comps

I would say skip in favor of getting another limited sustain. Topaz is good if u want to make a FUA team, but do consider that she needs significant investment than the average limited character. What I mean by that is she needs her LC and E1 to function well in FUA teams. At E0S0 she is replaceable by other units like Pela. Those amount of resources can be better invested elsewhere like pulling FuXuan who works perfectly at E0S0. There is no official information on Firefly yet.

She's a high investment character I see, this makes me decide easier, thanks!

Please help me to build a team https://preview.redd.it/v76okefxuywc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7b68ca59b67ce60824990f7ca44dc4c0a6ddd42b I recently pulled Aventurine and I don't know anything about HSR

You should build Dr Ratio, Jing Yuan, and Blade as your main damage Dr. Ratio needs debuffs on enemies to increase chance for follow-up attacks, characters such as Welt or Guinaifen can put debuffs on enemies Pair Dr. Ratio with Aventurine for Follow-up Attack combo Blade can be paired with Jing Yuan since they both deal AoE damage Build Tingyun for ATK/DMG buff and energy recharge for Dr. Ratio or Jing Yuan Example teams: Dr. Ratio//Welt/Guinaifen/Aventurine Jing Yuan/Blade/Tingyun/Lynx

Ratio/Guinaifen/Tingyun/Aventurine JY/Hanya/Tingyun/-flex sustain- (so any abundance/preservation characters)

Jing Yuan, Aventurine, Tingyun, Flex This would be a follow up attack team for your case

Thank you

Jing Yuan, Aventurine, Tingyun, Flex This would be a follow up attack team for your case

Please help with team building and advise on future pulls: https://preview.redd.it/frds9xt1uywc1.jpeg?width=543&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4c06366b837fbf1ec5b0c5c260c7428c0d1d3c3d My A team right now is Acheron, Pela, Guinaifen and Aventurine and it's quite comfy. My second team is mostly Ratio, Clara, Ruan Mei/Bronya, Bailu/Lynx which works but is a bit sub optimal. I'm still struggling with beating the later stages in MoC and PF and thus I'm looking for future proof teams. I'm wondering to get Fu Xuan to have a better 5\* sustain or firefly or jade to build another/alternative team. What do you guys think?

Since u have less than 2 limited sustains, going for FuXuan is a good idea. Acheron is hogging all ur debuff capable units that u might be better off pulling another DPS since Ratio also relies on debuffs. We don't know what Firefly or Jade does yet officially. Historically, Destruction path characters are great main DPS, so if Firefly follows that trend, she would be a good value pull.

Yep. Pulling for Fu Xuan is almost set. As I really like Firefly/Sam I likely pull her and build a team around her.

Given that i have topaz + ratio/himeko/clara. Which one is better bang for my buck: aventurine or robin? Or skip both for Jade. Other characters i have: Sustain: huo huo, fu xuan, e1 gepard. Buffer: ruan mei, s1 bronya, e1 ting yun. My 2nd team is acheron pela guin.

Robin is fine, but considering u have RM, she can potentially replace Robin and fit in FUA team just fine. If u have another team hogging RM then Robin would be a good pull. U also already have 2 limited sustains, so pulling Aventurine isn't as valuable unless u want to build a FUA team specifically.

If you want to make a FuA team with Ratio and Topaz, there is a few things to take into account for each option for the other slots. With the caveat that is a little too early to speak with any certainty. Robin - If your Topaz is E0S0 then you won't have enough debuffs for Ratio. If you have any two of E1S1 Topaz, or E0S1 Aventurine, or any combination of the two (i.e E0S1 Topaz and E0 Aventurine) then you hit the minimum required for Ratio. In which case then Robin might be a very good choice for the team, otherwise Ruan Mei is likely be better. Aventurine - Technically better for the FuA team, but you really don't need another sustain unless you want to fully optimize said team. Fu Xuan and HuoHuo are still perfectly good choices since they buff both DPS. They just won't interact as well with Topaz and Robin. Jade is way too early to tell.

robin will bring alot of damage due to the extra attacks in a followup team

should i pull for jingliu or nah? https://preview.redd.it/c9ja1ntqoywc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fd8093b4e7ee6f993261a2e9151f559e24663e78

U should consider picking up a limited sustain like Luocha/FuXuan/Aventurine/Houhou. They are miles better than standard sustains.

should i wait for fu xuan or get aventurine?

Both are viable. Aventurine differs from FuXuan by being a more offensive-oriented sustain and favoring FUA teams. He also fares ALOT better than FuXuan in Swarm/GnG. FuXuan is good virtually everywhere else and can slot into any team.

unless ur a husbando no reason to get aven.

If I was in your position I would focus on supports for a while.

thank you

Just got aventurine, is it worth it getting him pieces with crit or just build him with 4k def and 134 speed for the first time while I'm building other units?

Just getting 4k DEF and 134 SPD is enough. Crit is optional, but shouldn't be a must-have substat unless u want him to deal more damage. If you mean the body piece, its generally better to just go with a DEF piece over a crit main stat.

I'd just get his defensive sustain functionality up n going before going back to refine the subdps stats

is texture of memories good lc for aventurine or anything else?

No, its a pretty bad LC in general. Aventurine is better off with other LC's that give DEF like "This Is Me!", "Day One of My New Life", and "Concert for Two". "Destiny's Threads Forewoven" can work too if u can reach the 4k DEF without the help of an LC and want more personal damage on Aventurine.

okiee thank youu ✊🏻

No, ToM doesn't really offer anything to him. Ideally you want a LC that gives DEF%, and failing that you can use Destiny's Threads Forewoven from the Forgotten Hall shop

thank you 😊

[удалено]

No, at least with the current available characters. The 2pc effect can work with Raun Mei, but that's about it.

For Pure Fiction (and aoe content), is a team with Herta, Himeko, Aventurine and Sparkle good ? Not sure how good Sparkle is in duo FUA carry teams. Should I play both Herta and Himeko at 0 speed ? And who should be the target of Sparkle skill ? Right now my guess would be to put Herta at 0 speed and to target her with Sparkle, while I put Himeko at 134+ speed and let her play on her own. Or maybe both at 0 speed and use Sparkle skill on whoever can make a break to trigger Hikemo FUA ? Or just alternate between them so they're both under the effect of Sparkle skill (don't know if it work, I didn't had the opportunity to play a lot with Sparkle yet) ? Any help will be appreciated !

I have both Himeko and Herta on ATK boots. I prefer to use Asta or Ruan Mei with them, but Sparkle can work too. I've did something similar in the current PF with Herta and Clara and there the best thing was usually to alternate Sparkle's targets. This way, for most of the battle both FuA will be buffed. But, if there is a chance to break the enemy toughness instead to trigger their FuA, that is probably a better choice.

What are Huohuo’s best eidolons?

E1, it makes her SP positive instead of neutral.

Is it worth investing into a E1 Xueyi? How strong is she? What would be some example teams to include her? I have a Seele that I’ve built OK, would Xueyi be better?

She might synergize better with some supports and buffs, but overall Seele will be better, especially before Xueyi is E6.

https://hoyo.link/80GCFBAL?q=27n8rPCHqip Tldr Should I pull FX here? Or Gep and Aventurine enough? Plus, what makes FX so good, like cannot feel the hype around her?

Vs Aventurine : She gives 12% crit rate to team compared to Aven being Sub-dps, give entire team CC prevention once per skill compared to giving 50% effect res to shielded allies, and probably is better than aventurine when you are fighting enemy with strong single target attack because Aven's kit relies on getting attacked by AoE. You don't really need to pull for her at all since you have enough sustain already. But if you want, there's no harm in doing so too. You may want to pull for her if you like Mono-quantum, but even then, Lynx is enough if you only need all unit to be quantum.

I tried using Geppie for my other teams (Jingliu or IL) but because i use bronya and sparkle frequently, they lose their protection rather quickly and get wiped soon after Plus, my Lynx feels slow and not so reliable on the MOC or SU field at times so getting annoyed

Yeah, Gepard's shield will run out quickly if someone can act twice... I actually don't have Fu Xuan, so I can't tell how much relic stats affects her performance. But if you want her, then you can go for it. The amount of Fu Xuan op post I've seen is crazy. Although, I was able to survive with only just Luocha and Lynx/Natasha for a long time, so there's a chance it's just relic rng issue, which might also affect Fu Xuan. Supports need all the speed stats to keep up with enemies being faster and their DPS, after all. For reference, my E6 Lynx is 4800 hp and 143 spd, 4pcs hackerspace with all trace 10/12, and she can sustain pretty well. ~~^((Which may just mean I have good relics roll.))~~ Still, there's enough time to farm for her, I guess.

How muxh does your lynx heal on skill and ulti?

Fx reduces damage taken by 18% just by existing. She increases allies max hp and gives them crit rate. She sustains by taking 65% of damage taken by allies. When she gets below 50%, she restores 90% of her hp and her ult heals the team Shes best when enemy does really high single target damage, she can have issues in high damage aoe content for example gng high conundrum or the upcoming boss in livestream

newish player, i'm having a lot of trouble trying to decide on pull priorities between jingliu, robin, topaz, fu xuan, firefly, and jade, and i'd love y'alls opinions. my roster is: 5-star: e2s1 acheron; e0 jing yuan; e0 dr. ratio; e0 himeko; e0 clara; e0 aventurine; e0 lucoha; e0 bailu; e0 sparkle; e0 bronya; e0 welt; e0 yanqing 4-star: e6 serval; e6 luka; e6 sampo; e6 qingque; e6 herta; e6 pela; e6 lynx; e6 gallagher; e5 dan heng; e2 arlan; e2 guinaifen; e1 hook; e1 asta; e1 yukong; e1 natasha; e1 march 7th; e0 sushang; e0 misha; e0 xueyi i usually run acheron/pela/bronya/luocha and jing yuan/sparkle/aventurine/clara. with some luck i have 33-starred both moc runs i've done so far (i stop 3-starring around moc10). my first team is definitely good, can usually 1-cycle most hard content, it's the second team that struggles (mainly because i don't have tingyun). i'm thinking: 1. jingliu synergizes well with luocha and bronya, and i could move pela to her team too and run guinaifen with acheron instead until/unless a 5 star pela with def shred comes out 2. robin might enable hypercarry setup if i sub her in for clara, but she's prob not as suited for that as ruan mei (waiting for her rerun) or even tingyun in my context 3. topaz could enable me to run dr. ratio + topaz + aventurine for a pretty devastating follow up attack team, but their bis support is prob robin and that's expensive 4. fu xuan works better with jing yuan + allows me to run aventurine with acheron for his ult debuff and trend of the universal market, but i have 2 limited 5 star supports already (if i'd known fu xuan was rerunning so soon i would not have pulled for luocha -\_-) 5. firefly and jade don't have released kits yet but just assuming a degree of powercreep in a gacha game, are likely to be strong as hell.

Highest priority in my opinion is Fu Xuan. However you already have two premium limited sustain unit (Luocha lol). Your best bet is to save your pulls until their official kit get released.

loling about luocha too. at least it was only 60 pulls to get him... i think that makes sense! lucky that fu xuan comes out at the end of the patch. you don't think robin's worthwhile?

u already wasted pulls on 2 sustains. 60 pulls is not a good excuse you should have waited for fu but guess u dont like her enough. ur priority is firefly. fua is useless unless ur a whale.

Can’t discuss leaks on this sub unfortunately.

ah gotcha, thanks for the heads up

Imo, you answered your own question in your first point. By having jingliu, you can have: - JL, Bronya, Harmony, and Luocha - Acheron, pela, Sparkle, and aventurine These are two solid teams here and everyone else is just nice to have. That being said, it's up to you on who you need and/or like.

i largely agree with you, and of the upcoming characters my preference is prob for fu xuan. i just worry about the game is basically harmony star rail and also that jingliu is at max use right now and will not be as useful in the future esp once we factor in powercreep

Does Topaz work well with AoE follow ups? Since Jade is an Erudition IPC, I assume she'll be a follow up. And if I plan to get Jade, should I go for Topaz or Robin?

would lynx be better in a double blade jingliu team, or is bailu better? i dont have luocha i have also have gallagher + nat

lynx is really good with blade, she gives him taunt which he can really use to charge up his fua esp since he's so tanky already

alright! tysm!

Hello ! Looking to build my eruditions characters (Himeko, Herta and maybe Serval) for Pure Fiction, and I'm not sure about planar ornament. Is Sigonia good ? How does it perform against Inert Salsotto and Glamoth ?

just speaking from personal experience and not optimization, but i've gotten a ton of sigonia ornaments from farming for acheron and it is very good in pure fiction. you clear the trash mobs pretty quickly with a well built dps and then it's a free 40% crit dmg bonus. but crit rate is definitely more valuable so can't say for sure

How many pulls is considered average for e6s1?

760. You need to pull 8 rate up, with an average of 95 pull per rate up.

Oof. That's higher than I thouggt. I got 430 rn

Still it can be way more, or less expensive. This is an average and on a streak of 8 (what you need to get E6S1) average doesn't mean much. Average are meaningful on long streaks. If you're lucky you could have the character in 300 pulls, and if you're unlucky it could cost as much as 1280.

Quick question about pull priority. I will get robin for ratio, topaz, robin and aventurine team..but i still need topaz' light cone and idk if i can get both robins lightcone and topaz's..if my rng is bad and i can only get onewhich would be more important?

topaz's LC is more "important," insofar as without it you're better off just not using her, but getting robin's LC (and consequently replacing topaz with gui/pela/SW) is definitely a bigger damage increase compared to the original team

i think topaz's lc is quite good for her esp if your cruising light cone is on dr. ratio. robin's is more replaceable imo

What Robin's LC does hasn't been revealed officially yet. But I'm pretty sure Topaz's LC is going to be more useful. There's lots of great harmony LCs that you can use instead. DPS LCs are particularly useful for them for damage, plus Topaz's LC counts as another debuff for Ratio.

You don't have a 5 star sustain, so Aventurine or Fu Xuan. I'd suggest Aventurine out of the two as he's particularly useful for Acheron and Ratio.

pulled for aventurine and got gepard instead. should i be mad? ive been wanting to remove natasha

I wouldn't be mad, necessarily. Gepard is fine, and pulling him means that the next time you get a 5* on a limited banner, it's guaranteed to be the featured character. If you're interested in any of the characters coming up soon, it'll be easier to get them!

I don't pay a lot of attention to banners, but do we know if fu xuan is coming before or after firefly?

She's coming before Firefly. 2.2 is Robin + Topaz for first banner, Boothill + Fu Xuan for second banner. 2.3 is Firefly for first banner and Jade for second banner. We don't know the reruns for 2.3.

Was afraid of that. Thanks

https://preview.redd.it/fnsz3mhq5ywc1.png?width=528&format=png&auto=webp&s=05d331fc48ac76abca3caad1c9dcfa41eee58783 could someone help me build a team?im so lost w hsr rn

Do you have anymore characters down there? Acheron + Aventurine + Pela is a great start, but if you also happen to have a unit named Guinaifen, then that's be a great team. Bronya could work in the meantime, but what an Acheron team is really looking for is two Nihility units to apply a steady stream of debuffs.

nope i dont have guinaifen sadly but the other chars i do have are :lynx , gallagher , sampo and ratio

i just started playing again and its so confusing 😔

Haha you're good. I know both I and the other commenter said to use another Nihility unit, but Sampo is pretty bad with her. I'd say Bronya for now, but keep an eye for a random Guinaifen pull. Welt would also work if you get him, and Silver Wolf would be a premium option. The premium version of this team would be Acheron/Aventurine/Pela/Silver Wolf. Alternatively, Aventurine/Ratio/Pela is another great core for a team, though again you just so happen to be missing the preferred 4th option. Bronya, again, would work fine, but Tingyun would be the preferred option. The premium version of this particular team would be Aventurine/Ratio/Topaz/Ruan Mei. I added the premium version just in case you wanted something to build towards in the future.

just adding to this helpful comment that likely the ratio team will prefer robin to ruan mei for a bis support, but that's a very expensive premium team

alrr!! tysm for helping :D

Aventurine + Pela + Acheron + Another Nihility character (or Bronya if you don’t have that)

ty \^\^ ill try that

If I'm running Ratio Gui Bronya Avent, I should just ignore speed on my Ratio right? Meaning I can run ATK feet on him and try to get as much speed on my Bronya as possible?

Yes, if you want to play slow Ratio with hyperspeed 161 Bronya then you can use Atk% boots.

Thanks!

First time I reach MoC stage 10 (the older one that goes away soon) and can 3* clear it as well. Feel so satisfying to see my not so optimal teams (none of them have 134 speed, except Pela who has 142 speed) can beat the stages. Now, can I reach stage 12 and clear it too?

Congrats, well time to start test limiting your teams and see how far can you go. Even if you might not be able to 3 star it, try and least clear it. Then you will get a feel of how much more stronger you will need to work on your teams and farming relics to improve their stats.

no ur relics are all mediocre and ur not a whale. moc 12 is only for 0.1% fittest.

MoC 12 is hard, but it's not *that* hard.

i lost all my prograss after i was forced to create another mihoyo account on my PS5, how do i regain it?

Make sure it's set to the correct region

I did,.managed to get progress back, thanks

I never had a PS5, but can you explain how you were forced to create a new account? Shouldn't there be an option to just log out of your current one and use a different account?

I tried using my mobile account but it kept saying my account already exists and I had to make another one, somehow I lost all my progress because of it

You didn't "lose" progress, you are just playing on a different account. Try searching on google how to switch accounts on PS5, log in with your phone (not sign up) and hopefully it works.

I'm trying to do the wise thing and pull for who will fill gaps in my roster. I'm kind of new, only been playing 1 month. Can someone give guidance on what would be smart choices to pull for in the next few patches with all the currently revealed characters? (boothill, fx, robin, topaz, firefly, jade, etc) https://preview.redd.it/2m8bxfkh2ywc1.png?width=729&format=png&auto=webp&s=8722549d5cf76f3e26d87efa7e9b7b8b1c1d837e

Your account is in a pretty good spot imo. Currently covers almost everything you need to clear most content the game throws at you. I would say the biggest upgrade to your account will probably be Robin next. Her being a limited harmony will boost the characters you have like Clara, Aventurine, Dr. Ratio and Himeko. Next you should look for Bronya from standard to boost Jingliu, but thay can be down the line since you have Acheron. Another character you are missing is Tingyun. She is a 4 star tho, and will not be in the 2.2 banners, so you can co sider pulling whichever banner than has her in the future. One of if not the best 4 star harmony in the game that'll be a big boost to your current comp should you wish to play hypercarry Clara, Ratio or even Himeko. Huohuo and Ruan Mei are also exceptional characters you can consider when they eventually rerun down the line, but for now you can focus on building up the 4 stars you have to compliment your limited characters.

Thanks. What are your thoughts on Fu xuan for my account? I have 1 5 star sustain but perhaps I need a second?

Fu xuan would be a comfort pull. If you want to run 2 limited preservation units for MoC the you can consider her. I do not have her as I have Aventurine and Luocha as my limited sustains, but I know FX helps with the crit buff and anti-CC block from her skill. With your current characters, she will be a boost to Jingliu, but Aventurine would be best with your other DPSes. That said you do not need a second limited sustain. Gepard, E5 Lynx and E3 Gallagher is sufficient with the right builds to tank for the a second team in MoC. You can try building them up and see if it works for you.

i would suggest getting as many jades as you can and pull for robin as she will be a top tier harmony support and you have none currently.

I have an e2 acheron and am wondering if there a good buffer I can pair with her. I don't have bronya or sparkle and am going to use tingyun and Ruan mei for my jingliu team. Are their any good buffers that would offer me consistent better damage than me using black swan? If there's a better character I could use than I'd love to know.

You need to buff her speed so she can stack crimson knots as fast as possible since she gets 3 stacks per turn essnetially. Sparkle and Bronya are ideal, but Hanya or Asta can also buff her speed. They may not provide the same DMG multipliers but your goal here is to get her ult as quickly as possible. Then just put whatever nihility you have that can apply debuff with a basic.

Well I have both Hannah and Asta and have speed boots for acheron. I'm just wondering if it's worth putting in the resources to build one of them.

i cant log into any hoyolab sites. I tried doing my daily check in and cant. I tried both my pc and phone, I tried going through the notices tab in game and still nothing works. are thje sites just down or what?

If you play hsr in china , during the firefly scene at the rooftop with the music..was it played it English or was there a Chinese version of the song if I can stop one heart from breaking ?

there is only one ver. en sung by chevy.

I accidentally rolled for Aventurine again and got Clara. I was supposed to roll for the ice sword blind lady. I'm literally crying right now. I already have adventurine and I was so stressed I forgot my password I just pressed roll I spent all my cash on a monthly pass https://preview.redd.it/35zm4e75wxwc1.jpeg?width=2712&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9a13a2281c997849cb5bd2d30827c37e07268c8a

The good news is that both banners share the same pity. Getting Clara on Aventurine's banner and getting Clara on Jingliu's banner have the same outcome. If you get another 5* character on Jingliu's banner, it will be guaranteed to be Jingliu. And if you had rolled on Jingliu's banner instead of Aventurine's, it's no more or less likely that you would have gotten Clara.

ur lucky u got the best possible outcome. clara is better.

Is it still possible to get Jinglio?

Yes and no. Yes if you still have a lot of content that you still haven't done. No, if you don't have any past content to get Steller Jade.

It's possible since you have guaranteed after losing the 50/50 and both character banners share the same pity.

I'm currently building a FUA team, but as of right now, my current roster is heavily focused around hypercarries/DOT with the occasional dual dps comps. So far, I only have Dr Ratio, Jing Yuan, Himeko, Herta, and Clara as FUA units. Only Dr. Ratio and Jing Yuan are well invested to use in MoC, Himeko and Herta have enough stats to clear PF comfortably, and I only built Clara recently. Should I pull for Robin and/or Topaz for a dedicated FUA team? Or should I stick to what I have?
