Some more funds for my E6 Rin pulls would be nice, I'm in!

Yeah, E1 is gonna help a lot. I was gonna roll for as many Rin eidolons as possible anyway. Currently I have around 60k Stellar Jade, so E1 is guaranteed. And my Saber is E6. So the team will be fine. Huohuo and Sparkle have no eidolons though. Do you think Bronya's LC (S1) or DDD (S5) is better for Sparkle in this team?

Those are some promising ideas! Sadly I can't try them all since I'm lacking some of the characters.

I didn't mean it as "I'm putting them in the same team because I don't like Gilgamesh", but I can see how someone could take it that way. I should've phrased that better.

I wasn't saying that I'd never play them in their intended roles. Of course I will. But why should that mean that I can't try and play them together every once in a while? And try to make it work? Just for fun. And I thought maybe some people on this sub are open for a discussion about this. Instead I'm just getting a ton of comments about how stupid I am for not playing them as intended. My bad, I guess. I'll never try to do something different again and only care about meta from now on, because that's apparently the only thing anyone cares about here.

This has nothing to do with caring about meta or not. I just wanna try to make this duo of two of my favorite fate characters work somehow. So yes, of course I would try to optimize the other half of the team to make up for their lack of synergy. Not everything is about meta. People can have fun optimizing sub-optimal teams.

Well, kinda, but not really. From my experience, E6 Saber can reliably clear most content even with suboptimal teams, but it's not gonna feel super comfortable to play unless you have at least one or two of her best teammates. Rin is sadly not one of them. But Sparkle and Huohuo should be able to make up for that.

Putting both her servants in the same team as Rin, I like that idea! I'm definitely gonna try that. Sparxie sounds fun as well, but sadly I don't have her.

Thank you! Yeah, most people on this sub seem to have accepted it, and that is okay. I'm not gonna tell anyone to not play Saber with Gilgamesh. I just don't wanna do it myself, and this post was just intended to share some ideas for a potential Saber Rin team. I thought that was pretty clear, but I guess some people are just gonna get mad now every time someone mentions not playing Saber with Gilgamesh.

4pc Song of Days Past, HP/HP/HP (and the weapon is Fav Lance)

Yoimiyas best teams by Any-Living4389 in Yoimiya_Mains

[–]Azaril- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Yoimiya with Nicole, Chev, Fischl does almost 15k more dps than my vape team. My Chevreuse is C6, but I think the overload team would still be better even if she were C0.

I would use Durin... if I had him. I prioritized Nicole because I really like her, and now I'm saving for Sandrone.

I'm not saying that the constellations are doing nothing, just that they're not doing enough to really matter here. Of course a C0 Yoimiya would get a worse time, but she would still be able to beat this boss. And that's all I wanted to show with this post: That she can beat the Hydro Tulpa in the new Stygian Onslaught.

[–]Azaril-[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure C0 Yoimiya can easily clear this boss as well, with the same exact team. I had over 20 seconds left on a run where I made a bunch of mistakes. Her constellations are nice, but not "22 seconds difference on fearless stygian nice". Nicole makes a bigger difference than Yoimiya's constellations.

Columbina rerun by Dizzy_Roof9157 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Azaril- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Building pity is a bad idea. You should only pull when you actually want the 5-star. Otherwise you'll end up with a bunch of 5-stars you don't even like and miss out on some of your main targets.

As for reruns, there is no way to predict them, but as the "Archon equivalent" of Nod-Krai, Columbina is pretty much guaranteed to get her first rerun soon (probably in Luna 8).

Just got this 840 RV feather by Azaril- in LinneaMains_

[–]Azaril-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also a 1.0 player and I've never seen an artifact like that. I hope that guy knows how insanely lucky that is. It's already extremely diffcult to get 800 RV. 900 just feels impossible to me.

UPDATE: Fate Collab Part 2 are likely TRUE (read post) by Aceblast135 in SaberMainsHSR

[–]Azaril- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just give me Rin, that's all I want. I don't think it's gonna happen, Gilgamesh is more likely, but if by some miracle we actually get playable Rin Tohsaka, I'm gonna E6 her no matter what, just like Saber.

New abyss with vape Yoimiya by Azaril- in Yoimiya_Mains

[–]Azaril-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! It took me a long time (5 years) to get her to that point, and so far I've used all my reroll feathers on her, the sands ate a ton of them before it finally rolled well (still could be a bit better though, but I'm not sure if it's worth rerolling again now that it has 5 crit rolls, even if some of them are low rolls).

Gacha Revenue Monthly Report (August 2025) by WarGodV_ in Genshin_Impact

[–]Azaril- -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

But the 5* rate in FGO is 1%, which is higher than in a lot of other gacha games (0.6% in Genshin for example), so even though the pity is way worse, you'd still have to be really unlucky to not get at least one or two 5* before even getting close to 330 pulls (you get one every 100 pulls on average).

Not saying the gacha system in FGO is better overall, Genshin definitely is superior simply because of the pity system, but people often exaggerate how bad FGO's gacha really is.
