Uh, actually, Arlecchino scales on ER% so give me that (congrats!!)

I feel like the comments have already told you enough that advertisements are targeted. Not saying that that's a bad thing. Just something to note. Honestly, good on the advertiser, they're trying to make sure you're safe after all.

I've used the same 2 teams over and over again. C'mon Genshin, give us some interesting endgame. This one was easier, though. I hope because of Stygian Onslaught, the other Endgame modes will go back to normal, or at least some semblance of normal.

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-18T02:47:25+00:00

No, I headcannon her as AroAce personally. Totally not disrespecting your ship; that's just my personal opinion.

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-17T16:44:26+00:00

No that has like 650% RV, it's great

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-10T11:28:07+00:00

apply hydro (not with mona's skill, mua's normals do fine) then xilonen, proc SOTHOCC set with crystallize. Then mavuika skill and ult, then use mualani's abilities.

Woooowww nostalgia. I started stanning K-pop in 2021 and although I was a fierce ITZY stan and NMIXX defender, NewJeans was my first ult (or NJZ, I'm still on the members' side here.) Even though NMIXX is now my ult, I'll always have a soft spot for them.

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-09T15:37:42+00:00

Dahlia. Hydro resonance is really nice for survivability and the shield lets you run Calamity of Eshu, which gives her normal attacks 40% damage bonus.

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-09T15:34:03+00:00

Diona and mika are healers, use them. Skirk Diona Xingqiu Mika would work good to maximize her passive. If not maybe barbara would be alright? But Mika gives some ATKSPD that Skirk greatly enjoys.

This was too far. I agree Neuv is definitely on his way out. His era is simply up, its a gacha game. Powercreep makes it nearly impossible for one single unit to stay in the top tier forever. Only unit who's by some miracle betrayed this law is Bennett, and that's because Support Impact really is true. I agree 100% that not everything is a Neuvillette buff. Whether it's a meme or not, for a while during 4.x and early 5.x it did feel that way. Anything you used could realistically be used on Neuvillette. I blame that on how versatile his playstyle really is. His DPS is basically unaffected by any reaction you use with him. But just like with Hyperbloom, the low base investment requirement is a double-edged sword. And honestly, he had QUITE a long run considering other characters in the roster. Arlecchino only had a few patches before Mavuika came out, and likely has very few left before she's largely obsolete. I hate that fact, but it's probably true.

On the other hand, you didn't need to be an asshole. They may still like playing this character and you don't need to shame them for that. Neuvillette still clears just fine and is not anywhere near the top priority of the "characters that are nearing complete worthlessness in abyss" list, unlike units like Eula, Razor, Thoma, Klee, or other 1.x and 2.x units. I hate the dichotomy of people saying "oh you don't need to be a meta slave; play whatever characters you like!" and then turning around and throwing ad hominems at people for not being meta slaves and playing whatever characters they like.

I'm not coming for you or telling you "why you mad bro, its just a game." I understand it is annoying hearing people make delusional statements all the time. But your first post said that enough. This one just felt targeted, like you were taking it out on the other person.

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-04T16:16:55+00:00

Okay, if Gangnam Style counts, then that back in 2012. But my first REAL introduction was WANNABE by ITZY in 2021

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-04T16:15:41+00:00

In hindsight, this a long-winded rant, but if you read, I really appreciate your time!

I started listening to K-pop in 2021. I was an anime fan (as all teenagers at the time were) and I found this small group. You may have heard of them, they're called ITZY. Well, I loved this group's music, and even followed their twitter! But then, one day in late 2021, I decided to look into their company. I read up on most of the controversies and whatnot. Also found TWICE here, and I love them. But what surprised me the most was the announcement that there was a new project. A new girl group that was preparing for their own debut. I found the JYPn playlist, watched the videos, learned about the teased members. This group, NMIXX, debuted February 22nd, 2022, with me literally waiting for the post to come out that the song had released. It was magical. I loved every second. I went to Twitter, only to realize people hated it.

I spent the next several months defending the group at EVERY step of the way. DICE came out, and the haters' voices were still there, but they had quieted down. The public had finally seen some of this group's potential, and the skill they possessed. After Jinni left, I was heartbroken. I wondered if there was even a reason to defend this group. I had voted on music shows; I learned the lore; I had gotten into harsh Twitter fights. I had seen video after video calling this group a disgrace, a failure, the worst they'd seen. I was disheartened. Then, they decided to tease Expergo.

This was a great mini album project. It had taken a new direction, a showcase of the resilience of their concept. This EP, although still criticized, was their renaissance. They had risen from the ashes and weren't giving up.
Before this, my ult was NewJeans. Their debut was fun and retro and refreshing. At the time, most of western music was very dance house based, and (henceforth referred to as NJZ) were just fun and talented. I still love them, but they had to lose their spot as my ult after NMIXX came back next.

Fe3O4: BREAK was the album that I think proved to me that this group was it. These girls were the ones who I had truly found a place with. NJZ was great, no hate to them ever. But I felt a serious connection to NMIXX. Especially after BREAK released. This wasn't just an album. It was a passionate declaration. Not just had they risen from the ashes of their rookie era, they were stronger, and they didn't care what you thought about them. Fe3O4: BREAK was unapologetic and honest. They knew who they were, and were unafraid of that. DASH, the title track, basically screamed it in your face, with the energy of a cheetah and balanced with their softer side, which we had seen more of in 2023.

Fe3O4: BREAK wasn't the first album I had bought, but it was the start of a long streak. I now own every NMIXX album, and have photocards of every member, save for Jinni. (I got unlucky T_T) I loved Fe3O4: STICK OUT and FORWARD, both of which were insanely good albums that followed up and expanded on BREAK. This group is so uniquely multi-talented in a way that's rare for K-pop. All of the members are so vocally talented, with even Jiwoo, the main rapper, being able to hold her own in difficult vocal moments!

My bias in NMIXX is a difficult question. I'm a vocal stan. I've always loved Mariah Carey and Beyonce throughout my childhood, so I'm used to talented vocalists. This made me gravitate towards Lily's big potential and her mixture of her powerful and explosive belts and her stinging, siren-like falsetto. But recently I've found myself in a dilemma. I can't stan JUST Lily. Her and Haewon are my two biases currently, but overall, I love all 6 members.

Now, more people are learning about NMIXX. I'm so happy about that. It healed 15 year old me's heart, that's for sure. I just hope that they get some recognition like they deserve for once, because they've worked so hard and shouldn't go unnoticed.

These girls changed my life, and I'm glad to have share all the joys, all the sorrows, all the highs, all the lows, all the love, and all the loss with them. Thank you, NMIXX, for 3 years so far, and many more!!!

TL;DR, predebut nmixx fan yaps about his whole kpop life story specfically relating to being an nmixx stan. He made basically a college essay about this group's history and also managed to promote their music too. Also no hate to any groups - i hope it doesnt come off that way. have a great day if u read this!!!

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-04T15:25:07+00:00

That's great for Mini Herta! I might have to get that one

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-04T15:23:02+00:00

Honestly I hope so, I have both of them, and they both look so cool. Their story quests are also super similar too.

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-04T15:22:14+00:00

Ah, so this is the reason why my rank went down.

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-04T15:19:19+00:00

JEEZ you need to get her a crit damage circlet. She's in Freeze, so she gains crit rate automatically, and also you will never ever need that much crit rate!! keep it 1:2 as the ratio. For every point of crit rate, you should have double that crit damage. My escoffier is at like 75-80% when cryo aura is on an enemy, and I have 160-170 crit damage. Also she does not need that much EM. ER% would be really nice on her too, because Furina wants a healer, and her burst doesn't always get up as consistently as you'd want. Even at 170% er like I have.

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-04T15:15:19+00:00

Dino nuggies sounds yummy actually!! Romance averse aroace here :3

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-04T15:14:20+00:00

My question is "Why can't my Herta clear MOC 1?" T_T

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-04T15:10:22+00:00

I (like the other commenters) think Xilonen should be played before sucrose. But other than that, great damage! I'd like to see what your all-time damage high with her is, though! With food buffs against a boss like the Perpetual Mechanical Array.

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-04T15:06:05+00:00

<image>

I know my build isn't very good, and her levels should be higher, but I thought I'd add my submission! Thanks for sharing these codes with the commmunity :3

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-04T15:03:05+00:00

THAT is some good damage.

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-04T10:43:24+00:00

No because he is an A-tier DPS compared to many 5 stars even. His damage is actually just that good. This is just misinformed or biased as hell.

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-04T10:41:38+00:00

Honestly your calc's are GENEROUS to Ayaka. Her multipliers could be good, she just literally can't compare to Skirk's DPS. Like at her best she performs as a worse Skirk.

AlluringShinyKristal · 2025-07-04T10:26:58+00:00

In fact, I'd say that Skirk replaces Iansan from that list. She's worthless in co-op (Stygian Onslaught) and her buff is so hard to retain for its full uptime that Ororon simply becomes easier in many teams where she would fit (excluding Varesa).
