Somehow, in 70 rolls I managed to go from 33 pity on character and 62 on weapon, to having Raiden and Engulfing Lightning. I even lost the 50/50 to Keqing (I love you but I'd rather have one of the three standards I'm lacking), but then Raiden shows up in the next 10 pull anyway. Absolutely amazing night.

The net one would be okay, but it's hard to read and relies on you staying in one area, which doesn't really work. Also, it is extremely annoying that the "win while in disguise" rebel mission means you have to be in disguise when the match ends. Not "used a disguise." So if you say, stopped being a lamp so you could run away from the guy in the last 10 seconds, too bad that doesn't count. I do like the new levels, they're great fun. But I'm pretty sure I've gotten levels I've excluded from their level picker, and that's annoying. I don't want to be at diluc's house ever again.

I find that I am growing to really dislike having the disguise as an option, because it seems to reduce my run speed. Every time I hit the disguise button by mistake, it is a major bummer, because turning the disguise back off is non-trivial. A shame they didn't give us an alternative ability for that slot.

I still have no idea what I’m doing in this game but I saved up for Raiden and pulled her tonight, now it’s time to level her up and see what kind of goofy team I can make work. Is she of any use with Venti? He’s my go to for burst damage with his fuckstorm at the moment. The other characters I use mostly are Barbara for healing and Kaeya for freeze but I have a few others as well.

in terms of ad-hoc random teams raiden is pretty good for any team that just wants to rotate around pressing everyone's burst. venti definitely qualifies here because his burst is like 90% of his character she vomits energy all over everyone ensuring you can keep casting bursts on cooldown, and she buffs up her own damage based on how many bursts her teammates cast i think she can still hit stuff in the venti burst by spamming CA during her lightning katana mode so you should be fine. just throw two other characters with good busts in there and do your best to throw all 4 of them at once on every badguy (sadly kaeya+venti bursts don't work too well together since kaeya's icicles don't reach high enough)

Raiden + Venti + Barbara + (some dendro character; Collei is free if you can progress a little ways into Spiral Abyss, or dendro main character if you want to forge ahead in the main quest) could probably make a workable hyperbloom team

I think the net ability is pretty good for the hunter. In the smaller maps you can really carpet bomb the corners and high places and catch most rebels. Then grab the favor and win.

Rolling for the emo kid has me a lot further from Raiden than I'd like. At least there'll be some extra rolls from the stardust shop in a few days. My alt account got Mona. Oh well!

On the topic of the emo kid is there a reason he doesn't gel with Raiden as a teammate? Just his greed as a hypercarry meaning he wouldn't cycle enough for everyone to skill and burst? I'm considering trying to build a Scaramouche team with her since I've got both but in the baby levels without good artifacts yet.

He benefits in that his crappy electro infusion would always be active if her skill's up. he can also be a source of VV if you have him with a 5 piece damage set. Other than that, not much synergy. His burst does appreciate the boost if he doesn't have his C2, and you can swap him in and fire it off pretty quickly.

Ok so not like actively terrible or negative synergy, just both have much better teammates that directly feed to strengths? I'll probably build her first since I have better characters that are 80+ that fit her.

scaramouche wants tons of field time. he doesn't work well with basically any character who wants a lot of field time. and raiden's energy recharge stuff doesnt really help him at all. and on the flipside basically every anemo in the game except heizou would work better as a vv carrier for raiden, and thats all hed really do for her.

if you wanna do the wanderer+raiden team your best option would probably involve using sub-dps units that synergize strongly with raiden like xingqiu, beidou, yelan, or yae and just using wanderer as the driver. in this team his personal damage would be way lower due to the lack of dedicated buffers though, so rather than a hypercarry he would just feel more like a fancy airborne sucrose/heizou alternately you could do an EM raiden build and make the typical OP hyperbloom 3-squad (raiden + xingqiu + nahida or dendro MC) with wanderer as the flex-slot fourth. again he would be more of a driver than a carry here though, raiden would be the main damage dealer RPATDO_LAMD fucked around with this message at 05:51 on Dec 28, 2022 |

I pulled 50 times. Lost the 50/50 and got Tighnari but then got Raiden 20 pulls later. Managed to get a couple Rosarias and c1 Sayu along the way. Made myself stop when raiden showed up. Now I have 97 pulls in reserve for Deyha and Ayaka. A good night for sure. Best of luck to you all with the RNG!

it seems like winning as rebel in windtrace absolutely depends on yoinking the favor (assuming the hunter is decent) but there are so many new maps now... is there any indicator of where it's gonna spawn before it actually does or do you just have to memorize it for each map?

"LMAO" rescinded. C6 Sara is actually really underwhelming, and for some reason I thought Rosa C6 decreased cryo resistance too, instead of only phys (some reason -> Shenhe, probably). I'm now fairly certain that this was a horrible idea from the start, and that I actually got owned hard. Hopefully any new characters released before 4.0 are boring hypercarries, cause after Yelan/Dehya/Dr Snakes I'm gonna be all tapped out. Pulling for fun "maybe"s like Ayaka and Nilou is probably out of the question too Don't pull for 4 stars!! Or if you do, at least make sure you might get a new character out of it!!!

I somehow got the absolute best outcome from my standard banner pity - Jean C4. C6 Faruzan is honestly probably still better just because it's a bit finnicky keeping guys in Jean's burst area (which also doesn't last that long, though Wanderer does wild damage with the combination of Bennett's burst and Jean's 40% Anemo shred - just machine-gunning out 15-20k hits), but I don't have C6 Faruzan. Jean's C2 is really the best of her constellations, since it's super easy to maintain it constantly - it lasts a whole 15s from when Jean gets an elemental particle and gives a +15% normal attack speed bonus (plus a movement speed bonus, which is nice though not very noticeable). It's a shame there aren't many great opportunities to make use of Anemo shred, since most Anemo characters get most of their use out of Swirl damage.

Gearhead posted:Easiest way to explain it has to do with how the Herrscher of Reason was explained at the start: The core of the HoR was not created properly, and had several thousand different minds inside who were captured within when it formed. Collectively they decided they did NOT want to be a super villain, and the original Welt was elected to be the representative. Since then, every new HoR has required the consent of the minds inside of it to be the new HoR and use its powers. The fuckery going on in this chapter has basically prevented the minds inside of the core from holding a vote on anything, and Bronya can only continue forward by ..basically.. helping each mind inside move on until she's the last mind involved. I guess my issue here is that They also said a bunch of stuff about how HoR was never "ascended" or "awakened" or something like that, unlike the others, and I guess that's just a weird thing to suddenly drop. Like, "there's a super herrscher form, and everyone but Bronya has had it this entire time," sort of thing. I will say, however, that this is a much better explanation for why the Herrscher of Reason seems to be good by default than "it just is." Radical posted:If anyone is curious, the next two patches are Bronya battlesuit and then a double patch with Mei and Kiana battlesuits, with Mei being the free one and Kiani being the gacha one.B ronya has a passive that buffs other elements and Kiani/Mei supposedly will have skills that interact with each other, so you can run all three herrschers on the same team or as separate damage characters (or run Bronya in the place of AE.) Kale posted:The Honkai technobabble is loving hilarious. The Anti-Entropy visual novel is basically 90% that and we get gender bent Einstein, Tesla, Planck and Edison to be the catalyst for it. They also seem to be Rei, Asuka and Mitsuru respectively though I'm not sure who Edison is. I do like that at one point she Dragon Ball Z style stops what is more or less the spirit bomb in a heroic sacrifice. Also, while I am good at just rolling with things and think the idea that you need to read all the side material to understand Honkai is silly (unless the side material explains everything since they got to the moon somewhere), it is kind of bizarre that Tesla and Einstein are major characters, and it's never really explained in game that they are the Tesla and Einstein, or how the gently caress they're still alive and young. (And, to be fair, that has yet to be something that matters. It's just a loving weird omission. Like if they just never actually said anywhere but the comic that Kaeya and Diluc are brothers or that Kaeya's adopted, but it was still a thing, it just never explicitly came up.

I took Raiden National for a spin and was thoroughly unimpressed. Then I checked Xiangling's gear. It turns out I'd stripped her for parts at some point and she was running around with a level 1 1-star spear and no artifacts except a spare +8 hat. I'll reserve judgement for now.

The new maps seem pretty rebel biased to me. I've won almost all my rebel matches and lost all my hunter matches, which is the exact opposite of the last two times the event ran. As a rebel there's just so many opportunities to juke hunters here. I've been found/flagged/revealed multiple times and just gotten away while wasting a ton of their time using terrain+gliding. Overall it's a good thing, since you roll rebel more often and the points thus come faster. But I do miss rolling Hunter meaning an easy win.

Rebel feels very op this time. A lot of it is hunters not taking hunch due to the missions so they can't even play the game until they find the favor. But maybe they should rethink how small the props get, turning into urns and lanterns makes it too easy to stay out of LOS on high ground.
