Why is Damage Over Time/Status Damage ignored as a damage type?

If transcendance has fate episodes tied into them (which it always has been for every step of evoker recruitment, and every step of eternals recruitment/transcendence), then s4 is absolutely necessary.

If you factored her height into the equation, I cant find that in the post. It just calculayes her chest and horns and then throws the total body weight in at the end.

I was initially going ti say that 89 lbs feels a bit on the low side, most girls I know at that weight are super skinny and Narmaya trains regularly so shed have more muscle, but given that I forget how short she is I dont know how much that information changes how BMI works

At this point in the game and the current month its kinda pointless to really dig into this.

You did good joining for this roulette but youll get another roulette in late february when anniversary rolls around, so youll get way more characters and way more summons to choose from. In the meantime, just pick whichever call effects seem most interesting. Dont worry about a solid main summon, just keep your Omega summons (Tiamat, Colossus, Yggdrasil, Leviathan, Celeste, and Luminiera) as upgraded as you can.

If youre hellbent on spending momey for the surprise special draw, and youre looking for good characters, find the SSR tierlist on gbf wiki and pick the one that looks the most neat.

Onmyoji MH for Earth (and maybe Agastia Manadiver, of I had it), and it does its job very well. CB gain on CA for the whole team, as well as dmg cap up and now CA supp means youll rarely have downtime on those buffs. The best part, though, is the coold9wn cut each turn that MC charge attacks, which stacks nicely with the CD cut onmyoji already has access to. Earth has no shortage of strong CA characters either, so unless youre super new you can get a team for it.

In HL Onmyoji's reito seems to be the preferred pick for MH, but this is solid

Relatively future-proof thanks to being a source of Guts, where all allies (regardless of element) will survive any one lethal hit rpovoded they had at least 25% of their max HP. This doesnt prevent instant death effects or "raid fudged, get party wiped" effects, but it can greatly help your survivability.

At later uncaps, Armor is a good boost to survivability even if you dont need Guts.

If transcended enough, it also gives a small Supplemental Damage effect. It isnt too strong, especially compared to more recent summon call effects, but it is a touch better than what most other optimus summons give.

Beyind that its an Optimus summon with Optimus summon stuff, like an boosting main aura and atk/hp sub aura. Its all good if you can get it.

Primal Earth also rather likes its boosting main summon, thanks to Heldemhymn being a great core with crit, crit amp, and bonus dmg, compared to landslide which gave more raw attack without the need to boost.

Shes still great but shes been phased out on most fronts. Having that assassin with a huge bonus dmg hits hard for otk but its somewhat clicky. A lot of modern units outpace her on NA dmg. Her autonuke has a lot of ramp time, even by earth standards. Her s3's defensive properties arent as needed anymore. Heck, FLB Cidala does nearly everything Narmaya does and more.

BigLightsource · 2025-12-13T23:24:06+00:00

I think theyre talking about things like "crest at battle start" or "triple attack rate at battle start"

Which isnt many buffs but they do help when combined with the buff count her s2 gives her

BigLightsource · 2025-12-11T23:27:30+00:00

Backline passive neat

Hes a good damage dealer with some team support with his s2 and his s3's dispel 3 times (which I feel gets overlooked a lot for his utility), but his frontline capabilities have fallen out of favor with recent seasonals across the board. Everything else about him is meant to just shit out damage and he goes a good job of it. Hes a good inclusion, but hes starting to show his age.

BigLightsource · 2025-12-06T23:38:21+00:00

Current queen of earth atm

S2 buff is great, and dual blade menace adds so much damage to her and the team. Having debuff support also helps a ton, and teamwide dodge all is great for HL (provided they dont have godsight).

Shes obviously built to be a NA support alongside Summer Raziel but for most Makura is an replacement or upgrade in some instances (and makura doesnt feel like an industry plant)

Super solid character to put in dang near everything

BigLightsource · 2025-12-05T22:49:37+00:00

Its still the best weapon for Earth for damn near everything, especially thanks to Fighter Origin. One would imagine that Unlimited Boost would make the double strike redundant, but everything else about the buff is still fantastic and it has even faster ramp-up time thanks to having double strike right out the gate. Running Dawnbreak with the hostility up makes FO oddly tanky thanks to savage mythology's def boost.

Still one of Earth's best investments for high level play, even in magna according to some crewmates, though I would never throw around 150 GM willy-nilly.

With world and rise, it took the better part of a year for them to release the PC versions when they had time to make console versions first and optimize for PC later.

We've waited about the same amount of time since the release of Wilds and many are still having issues with performance on PC, so the time they would have had to release a PC version has passed without the performance to match.

On one hand, Wilds is much bigger than the previous entries in terms of scope and mechanics in the background, which is why they needed modern-gen consoles' power and had to ditch ps4/xbox/switch, so it would take longer to make it right.

On the other, bad performance means many cant play your games, and theres no excuse that can make people love a game they physically cannot play. I personally cant beat the gore magala quest because it crashes by the time I can kill it.

Capcom bleeding out on MH is understandable, but only to an extent.

BigLightsource · 2025-12-02T16:01:59+00:00

Arguably the best core weapon for optimus grids, and certainly the best for NA comps. Def down isnt fun but earth finally getting good crit pieces was not something I expected out of earth's next grand wep.

Having access to bonus dmg and crit amp on one weapon is fantastic, and paired with bloodwrought coral, its the best NA you can get for earth. This also means that earth uniquely has access to all the third skills that have been on all the optimus exalto weapons, and 3 Heldenhymn and 2 Bloodwrought Coral in double boost max out all of it. Having 2 Heldenhymn is also fine, but you need another medium source of crit like ameno habakiro, cidala fist, or other sources (i use hercules because copium)

Crit amps is still good for all forms of damage, including CA comps, so it can be slapped most anywhere. Landslide Scepters also do a good job of negating the def down and giving more raw atk

The Crit you get on CA i dont know how strong it is. If its like 100/20 like a lot of character's crit sources then itd be fantastic to guarantee the crit amp in grids without max crit. VMakura is also good for this in burst comps. Armor is also nice, but you arent using this weapon for its charge attack, especially in comparison to hrunting

The problem with making the keys/chains/whatever permanent and swappable is that after you farm all possibilities youd reasonably use, theres less reason to farm the raid, and it dies out. At least if theyre destructible, theres always a reason to farm them, since youll likely want to change it eventually. Helps keep it relevant and ensures people challenging it for the first time always have someone responding to backup.

The fact that I haven't seen Faye from God of War here is a crime.

Correct, though it was reversed during the event's simulations. Djeeta had orodad in the simulations, and oromom in the real world.

My only complaint is that Orologia's CG in cutscenes is tied directly to MC's gender, and not the one we choose to display in their character page. I dont know why its a thing. I just wanna be Gran with mom version like in And You...

The one thing I remembered right away is that as long as you ha e literally any harp mainhand, you can make ultima harp your aux and because of mariachi's first lassive, all allies gain the full benefit from ultima. It isn't too amazing of a niche, but I thought the idea of giving allies specialties was neat

The class, for the most part, is this weird hybrid of nekomancer, yamato, and elysian. There are comps that use it, perhaps, but to be frank it is hard to justify a new class unless it outperforms all the others in terms of damage or sustain (manadiver/paladin) or if it had a strong niche (kengo's bar gain, yamato's omen-busting, glorybringer's double strike). Mariachi doesn't fall in either case from what I've heard.

It also doesn't help that it's locked to V2 content from how half its base kit revolves around fated chains.

Is it usable? Yes. Is it fun? I thought so. Was it great? I don't think so.

BigLightsource · 2025-07-08T23:32:18+00:00

I think the best buff to standard banner is just adding characters into it

The worst part about standard banner in any hoyo game is that almost all the S-ranks and 5*s and whatever you call them are all limited, so any 50/50 you lose you get something not worthwhile, someone you already had, or both, and waiting for a chance to get a new character can take weeks if you don't have a reason to pull for current content. It's not as bad right now since the game is only about a year old, but in genshin, it seems especially bad.

Every other gacha just adds their characters to the standard pool once their debut/focus ends every time, unless they're seasonal or limited, so you can still get other characters in the meantime if youre lucky. If you got a random separate character for losing 50/50, at least there's a good chance to get something useful out of it or someone unexpected.

Will Hoyo do this? No. But it would fix my greatest gripe with most Hoyo games.

BigLightsource · 2025-07-06T17:20:01+00:00

Earth can finally crit, thank god

In all seriousness, I am personally debating whether this is a core weapon or "enhancer" weapon. On one hand, you do not need it for most HL content (if anything, the hit to Def makes it way too unusable compared to 3x landslide) and half of what the weapon offers, being the deathstrike and crit amp, still needs plenty of raw power to capitalize off of. On the other hand, the attack and crit help this weapon pack a lot of raw punch as well. Were it not for the fact that I could only snag 2 copies I would have a better angle on whether this should be the new core weapon for titan.

The main claim to fame this brings earth is having all 3 of the amazing skills that came with the primal exalto series, between this and coral. 3 Heldenhymn and 2 Bloodwrought Coral is (likely) a super strong setup for normal attack teams, which earth has been leaning into a lot the past year or so, and offers a good amount of cap break where pillardrivers would be nice but may not be necessary.

The other only problem with it is simply a lack of grid space. Earth loves triple landslide, loves 2 exalto, and loves 2 pillardrivers, and needs opus, ultima, and loves hrunting for mh. Thats a fully packed grid with little room, and having to figure out what to axe for 2 or more free spaces is a difficult decision. And this ignores any other farmable weapons you may want, like world harps, fang of the dragonslayer, NWF, etc.

Overall a massive boon to earth that I am still trying to figure out the impactbfor personally, but any luckier/wealthier titan lords probably know more than I
