I'm guessing the knights of favonius (jean/lisa/amber etc) are getting their own faction buffs whenever varka comes out, lmao eula may end up getting actual buffs soon :story:

Albedo and sucrose are knights too so i'd make no sense to give them extra.

In other words, they hate Eula.

I wanna be optimistic for Diluc but he's standard banner so he's doomed to be basic.

Also I found out you can look at certain full body art in Mecharashi for certain characters.

I didn't expect Naomis lower half to look like that.

Also got Lornas ST and got Marcus so I can finally do that stupid commission. I am just missing Hong and Shawnee and Goman.

The story continues to be really Meh but fighting mecha William was fun. I just wish there was voice acting.

I also wish there wasn't a daily sweep limit because now I'm stuck at level 45 and I need to grind like mad to make sure everyone isn't dying.

How do you do that, is in the skynet files?

Marcus is really good, he can atk again for free after moving* 3 squares so you can technically ignore his weapon skills, equip anything and attack twice. Good mobility skill too.

At least at the weekend you get double neuron and mat drops. It's a the best time to spend those saved energy cans.

Not likely, as the only buff you can give her is phys defense shred, and the devs wouldn't dare letting me reactivate my nuke.

Just put in the buff Hoyo, let my Eula hit the numbers she used to.
Click to expand...

Superconduct already has 40% phys shred and her hold skill has some. If you mean defense phys shred it would only make Eula hit a little harder which won't save her.

Eula has too many core issues incompatible with modern genshin. She's a slow multihit claymorer with heavy hitlag (note how kinich and mavuika dont even use their weapon), her burst requires 7 seconds of non stop attacking to do damage while every enemy is stronger and faster, superconduct was NEVER good and STILL has no reason to exist, 80 cost burst with bad energy generation is hilarious in stygian (the last dps like this was Cyno and he's dead), physical is thrash at best and unviable at worst because every new boss has a racist mechanic or reaction shield, etc.

Fun fact, Eula is the only character in the game whose burst only empties after the animation meaning she does not absorb particles during her burst animation. This means your good old Fav Diona hold E -> eula burst is wasted.

I do not understand why hoyo can't simply buff these old characters like they did with star rail and ZZZ. Why does it have to be a retarded faction gimmick that seemingly gives them one extra passive and that is it. If Albedo doesn't get a significant flower rework then he'll stay unusable against shields and large mobs.

From the main menu, you go to your pilot list and with some characters, there's a little magnifying glass next to their name.

Be warned, not all characters have it. But all S ranks have it, and so do Kaidan, Grant and Dana.

You can rotate them for phone view.

I didn't expect Dana's nails to be so colorful. Granted, you can see it on both hands but for some reason, it really stood out to me when I saw her full body art,

And the full Naomi. I still can't get over her pants. Lmao.

Edit: Just noticed Eileen got added to the standard banner. Huh.

Her pants, eh, they are fine enough. WHAT THE FUCK ARE ON HER FEET? Thigh high open toe heels are messing with me here.

Yeah it looks kinda weird but I think the pants and the fishnet stockings really highlight the weirdness.

Did Furinas character quest and I am still happy I pulled her. She really is quite likeable. Granted, I did grow to like her during the Fontaine main quest. I can see why she became the little destroyer of relationships.

Also the ending song is very nice.

So I have a question, is there a reason only Mona and Paimon have action figures? I like Mona, shes my fav and all, (cant play the game cause im poor, so im just gog off of character and gameplay aimations) but from what im seeing, aren't there a lot more characters, like the twins, that should have gotten these instead of just relegated to Nendoroids?

What exactly are you looking for? If you just search AmiAmi as a random reference you can seen a ton of characters represented as mostly chibi figures or scale statues, but there are a few posable action figures like Childe or Kazuha up for pre-order. You can even buy a hilichigger if that floats your boat.

oh Im not asking for suggestions, i got my mona figma and i like it. im genuienly confused ,especially since fate has figmas out the wazoo in addition to nendoroids and statues. I'm just wondering is there a reason a relatively minor character and paimon got the opposable action figure treatment

There are too many characters to realistically make a figure for all of them. It seems kind of arbitrary, I'll give you that (why Mona but not Jean?), but most of the popular 5 stars get representation. I feel bad for hardcore Layla or Sara fans who will never get anything but acrylic stands of the official splash art, if that.

Does ZZZ and HSR also do the bullshit that the 50/50 is only a tiny pool of severely powercrept characters?
Click to expand...
Yes, although HSR actually added a few extra formerly limited characters that you can choose to add to your 50/50 pool in place of the usual limited ones. This only applies to the limited banner mind you. Those units are all 1.x characters: Blade, Seele, and Fu Xuan.

Seele was the first limited DPS character released and has been 100% powercrept, There's not much to say about her since almost every 5* DPS outdoes her now, even some standards. Blade received a rework/buff which actually made him a fair bit better as he now purely scales off HP and is therefore compatible with modern meta teams. He's a solid T1 DPS, not the best by any means but usable. Fu Xuan is a tank/sustain unit who reduces team damage by redirecting some of it to herself and then being able to restore her own HP once it drops low enough. This is very useful on paper and can prevent your team from getting one-shot quite often, but current boss/content design involves a lot of AOE damage which can overwhelm her as a solo sustain.

So yeah, although the silver lining now is that the HSR team has shown willingness to update characters so there is some chance they might rework the earlier/more outdated units. They'll likely prioritize limited units before they even consider standard ones though.
 
I think the system still favors standard units because I've lost some 50/50s and I've never gotten Blade, Fu Xuan or Seele.

I just don't the point of this. It's not even smart economy wise, failing those 50/50 for useless units just makes players burn out faster. While games where you randomly get an OP unit can actually make you spend more since now you'll actually care when support units for it appear in the limited banners.

I noped out of ZZZ when I failed the first coinflip (and getting ridiculous amount of copies of a shitty character).

This feels like something out of A Certain Scientific Railgun.
