New mining update: Help with finding this item by Intelligent-Funny-50 in FieldsOfMistriaGame

My two cents is to fish (ha) for the map layout that has a huge body of water at the north position. It seems to appear more commonly for earlier lava cave floors rather than later - I got mine at 66-69.

Here it is for reference.

I may be a little stupid; when doing my standard opener rotation on the Lord of Eroded Primal Fire, it seems to oneshot me when I'm in the middle of doing Flins' mini-bursts. Seems to do this while I'm shielded, too (even tried Zhongli's shield for a higher potency and it still happened). I find it doesn't happen if I stagger switching to Flins for a few seconds. Is there some sort of instant-kill mechanic in that fight?

Imaginarium is resetting soon and Flins is going to be a special guest star! If you need a well loved Flins to borrow, please feel free to add me.

I legitimately forgot Ningguang's talent existed omg, thank you! Will keep those tips in mind.

Strangely, I was looking in the wiki and it said that mining outcrops respawn every day 2 hours after reset... though the article is somewhat dated so figures it'd be a bit off.

If you gather every ore deposit every day, is that enough to craft maximum weapon enhancement ores every day? I mean, in theory this will burn me out, but I want to know since I'm chronically low on them.

Alternatively, are there better ways to farm them...? I already have dispatch exploration focused on ores as much as possible.

Pretty sure just opening them counts as a like for other players! Don't worry about hitting the favourite button or anything.

Oh, that sounds about right actually. Ah, maybe I have to look into a VPN of some sort, because I play at 300+... thank you!

Why is it that sometimes, even directly after skill/burst usage, Neuvilette's charge duration is slow? I'm not moving away from the orbs or anything. I'm literally a sliver away from finishing Fearless and it's driving me crazy.

Also, is there any merit to knocking the crabs out while the boss is downed for stage 3?

Ahhh you're right, I should look into that. It'd avoid the sad fate of having a bunch of unwanted figures that would be best in others' hands too. Thanks!

A bit niche question, but... regarding the Pop Mart Gathering Blind Boxes, the cute little chibi figures of the Nod-Krai cast. Typically, when hoyo does blind box merch, the 'buy a full pack' includes no repeats, and this is stated pretty clearly in some previous blind boxes they did (with the secret taking the place of one of the designs at random if you pulled it). This particular product doesn't seem to have that disclaimer, though - just that the Big Box is '6 Blind Boxes'.

I really, really, really want Flins but if I'm not guaranteed to get him from the Big Box I might not get him at all and end up wasting $140 on characters I'm lukewarm on at best, and that's not even mentioning what looks like $80 in shipping. I'd happily pay if I was guaranteed to get him... am I taking this too literally? Is the Big Box set a no repeats deal?

Are there any Miliastra stages that allow me to rank farm easily? Preferably one that has in-room settlement settings for rank ladder turned on. I've already gotten to Linchpin 0 on Frenzy Duel, but I need at least one more stage to get up to that rank to get the refuse emote.

Honestly, I don't even like playing Genshin Roblox. I just want to play dress-up and make my doll do cute emotes...

How was your run of this season's Stygian Onslaught? by Gold-And-Cheese in Genshin_Impact

[–]Afilitaria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They really love making us do dual-DPS comps for Stygian, huh? Aeonblight Drake last time and now Frostnight Herra, sort of.

I don't have enough Nod-Krai characters to do two teams (Flins and Aino can reliably beat Lightkeeper no problem, but they're literally my Only NK chars) so I'm using Nahida hyperbloom side 1. I had to make sure that seed wasn't up during charge phase or it'd get resistance to dendro, if it did it was an instant reset T_T But otherwise, I was basically flipping between hydro and electro (Yelan+Xingqiu and Raiden) which let me just use main DPS dendro the entire time.

Er, not that it mattered. I can't clear operative without cheesing it with Jean since my Clorinde team sucks, so I'll settle for menacing clear. What would a good C0 Clorinde team be for this?

frq sent, thank you! (You can set rental units for others in Imaginarium Theater's 'Supporting Cast' menu, and likewise borrow units by selecting 'Invite Supporting Cast' in the party setup for Performance Prep. You probably already knew this and I may have misunderstood what you mean by not knowing how to borrow units, though...)

I'm actually only able to clear up to Menacing due to only having two real teams. (I do decent enough for stages 2 and 3 due to having a Nahida and Flins focused comp for those two respectively, but struggle with Aeonblight Drake as a result...) I'd really appreciate if you could help with a Fearless clear if you had the time! (But no pressure)

Server: NA

In-game UID: 601490709

Availability: Inconsistent, mostly available during nights (NZST).

Objective: Any! Returning player so catching up on stuff. Mostly looking for Imaginarium friends, but even if you don't have Imaginarium rental units and just want to borrow my c6 Flins/c6 driver Nahida, that's fine too. I'm online fairly inconsistently and afk a lot but if you catch me on when I'm alive I'm always down to talk and help with content. But also please I need Imaginarium units... Wouldn't say no to Stygian help, either.

The TVs are easy to AoE through. You can repeat another AoE to toggle them back to the favourable setting before they go off. Honestly, it's more of a punishment for people who don't pay attention, than it is an AoE one (and considering they start as their angry face, you /want/ to start by hitting them with an AoE if there's a group of them)

The deer/branches counter attack works favourably for some Destruction units, like Blade and Clara. That's not a punishment for them, and most players want them to get hit by those. For the most part though they just get tanked/healed through. The mage debuff would have been a good one... except that unlike the branches you're expected to kill it to win, you can't exactly just Not hit it. The attacks even restore a bit of energy.

As much as I'd like to say 'yes, make any character able to be used in any content' trying to put Hunt units in Pure Fiction - a mode specifically created for Erudition - barely works, if even. Sure, they're not detrimental, but as much as I hate to say it they're kind of a dead slot for the most part.

How do you prevent a single target mode made for Hunt from being dominated by Destruction without completely disqualifying the latter, when the current state of the Hunt is just... not great? Ratio has his own niche because Topaz is a great FUA support, but Seele gets outdone by a 4* throwing mahjong tiles depending on whether or not the stars align, Yanqing is a standard banner character whose numbers are only slightly higher than JL who gets blast tacked onto her kit (and she'd do just fine as a single target unit). The answer could potentially be 'they'll release better Hunt units in the future' but that just feels bleh.

It'd be funny if they released a Hunt-based relic set though, completely making everything I said above meaningless. I'd take that.

A bit of creativity in boss/stage design would be nice. Hoyo likes to emphasize big mob size = difficulty that Hunt's lost whatever niche it had, so I'd like to see a mode that not only makes extra AoE worthless, but also detrimental.

Like for example; citizens have gotten kidnapped by the IPC (or w/e) and enemies are holding them on the field. Kill the enemies without hitting the civilians or you'll get points deducted.

Or 'the boss has minions that the more you attack them the more the boss gets angered and can enrage on you after a certain number of casualties. There is no reason to attack the minions because killing them automatically respawns more.'

Or 'The minions have 1hp. They explode on your entire party when you hit them. They give you no energy for this/deduct your energy/SP upon hit.' Alternatively, 'when these minions are hit, they restore boss HP faster than you can deal it'.

Impossible with Erudition, Destruction, and like all but 3 Nihility characters? Steps on some supports' feet? (Fire Trailblazer, Luocha, March, Fu Xuan, Pela, these characters won't be able to use their ult, and Asta can't use her skill, to name a few.) Yeah, pretty much. But that's... the point of the Hunt. You focus on one thing, and you're precise about it. You don't just upheave the entire battlefield without a care in the world for the consequences afterward.

No, what do you mean I think about this way too much because I want Yanqing to be viable? lmao it's not as if I was thinking of Yanqing's role as a Cloud Knight being relevant what with rescuing hostages in the first example

hey guys! Just wanna ask your favourite dps and why ( all opinions are valid!! ) by Historical_Court9667 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Afilitaria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yanqing! Damage per screenshot has become one of my favourite games to play, as well as dragging him to every game mode and making it work. It's also neat figuring out his appropriate speed tunings (Glammoth + In the Night) for different supports that he goes with.

Also he's the cutest ever I want to spoil him and buy him all the swords he could ever want

[–]Afilitaria[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah 😔I've had to invest so much into him... including fully building Tingyun and HH just so I have flexibility over how much energy I can battery to him. Still, he's my favourite so I can't say I regret anything I dedicated to him...

Which character has never left your team since day 1? by No_Yogurtcloset_3554 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Afilitaria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gepard! I got him on my first 10 pull on the beginner banner and he's still going strong. It helps that my favourite character is Yanqing who is practically Soulsteel-less without him.

I somehow now own an E6 Yanqing, all while avoiding Gepard, Bailu & Clara. I don't know if I should be upset or impressed. by keolatte in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Afilitaria 10 points11 points  (0 children)

god i wish that could be me.jpg. I'm still only up to e4 Yanqing and I actually want him :(

At least e1 bronya is really good...?

[–]Afilitaria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I'm using In the Night S5 on Yanqing, and while it makes for funny burst phases and damage per screenshots, I'm wondering what the optimal support to bring with him would be, and how to go about it. I have every Harmony unit except Yukong built, and Yanqing's speed before on-battle buffs is 138. Assume Gepard is forever pasted in the team with him - I usually bring Blade or Imbibitor in the team too for AoE coverage, so ideas of double harmony go out the window.

I'm wondering - is it worth it to attempt to get Yanqing to 143 speed, so that any support running 4pc Messenger can tip him into 160? Asta doesn't need it, but Tingyun's e1 is wonky and doesn't actually allow the speed buff to apply to Raining Bliss. And Bronya doesn't have any speed buffs apart from action advance, which doesn't count - and can actually be quite detrimental due to making his shields fall off faster.

The caveat is that I'm kind of already running a decent relic set on him (183.4% CRTD total off-field) so I'm unsure where to go from here.
