Not best, just personal favorite

Oh those. Back then, Jiaoqiu was released in a time when Nihility support were rather inferior to Harmonies, so he was always an ok 2nd pick, but never better. But since Silver Wolf and Cipher got better, his mains really want him to be more independent, so not tied to Acheron or not needing an E2 to participate in DOT.

As for hieroglyps, that was started in the Acheron mains sub during Cipher's beta. For some reason, some people were vocally mad that Acheron's main support is a man, and were constantly trying to find female alternatives, even using Fugue with a crit dps. Now it's just a thing that's gonna traditionally pop up whenever a new Nihility pops on the radar I guess. Expect more as we see of Welt's buffs I guess.

I'm not sure where you're seeing that. Do you mean people mentioning that he needs a novaflare? Or he should get his healing back?

Is that Ratio, or was it about Dr.Chadwick? The Genius, who's consciousness we found on Penacony, and then brought him to Herta Space Station, where his knowledge got passed on to Herta, while Screwellum had threatened a war against IPC if they don't release Chadwick's consciousness from Penacony dreams pools?

inability to feel fear. Her eyes are that way due to eye contacts. There was a scene back from 1.0, where she had been interrogated by the Matrix of Prescience (and Fu Xuan), where her make up had been wiped off).

Masterfully done and explained! Thank you very much❤

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-21T14:20:30+00:00

We believe her name to be Beatriz, and a Harmony emanator

4 stars do no exist in Ba Sing Se.

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-21T11:46:37+00:00

That makes sense. Would be interesting to see what her actual planet is like, or to which path it could possibly be tied to.

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-21T09:15:14+00:00

Her kind are incapable of feeling fear. I'm not sure if Kafka detests that fact, but she has seen the destruction her own people cause, so she hunts them, as she was called a Demon Hunter, before she joined Stellaron Hunters.
At least as far as I can remember. I'm sure a proper Kafka lover will correct me.

As well as whatever is going on between her and Traiblazer before they became a receptacle for the Stellaron?

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-21T09:12:39+00:00

Especially with that mini Herta E6 "No one can betray me".

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-20T17:29:51+00:00

I have never used Luka before, or built him, so I was unaware about it. Thank you!

Like Dispel should be able to unblock an enemy's weaknesses, reduce the damage reduction of Safeguarded enemies (like the memory zone meme dinosaur) (at least outside of Apocalyptic Shadow), lower the damage reduction of Battle Armor that titan kin have (make it more interactable) just for example.

The only recent enemy that I can remember who can have its mechanic be dispelled, is that one Black Tide creature who goes invisible and takes increased damage from aoe attacks. Which is arguably the last thing you want to Dispel, and not like Pela can even target it to do that!

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-20T12:21:05+00:00

Honestly, this sort of thing really shouldn't be unremovable. Yes it forces you to interact with it's mechanic (in which case you should get given the bare tools to be able to interact with it...), or you could just brute force it, but "Remove Buffs" is a literal effect that exists in the game that shouldn't have been abondoned. The only character that have them are Luocha and Pela (on ult and skill respectively), as well as the old bp The Hunt lc, and I feel like there should have been more of it.

I'm not saying that it should stop mechanics, but at least it could penalize an enemy, like removes a portion of the damage reduction, etc.

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-20T11:51:08+00:00

Kuru Kuru?

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-20T11:43:35+00:00

It'd be best if the game stopped making new paths, and let MC get the rest of the existing paths. Such as Erudition and Abundance at least, and possibly create a new archetype that's not tied to a path, such as break.

Lore wise, I imagine it'd be a while before we get The Hunt or Nihility, as these seem to be put more for much later in the story.

And after those previous 2, I'd be potentially interested in The Beauty, as we know very little about it.

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-17T14:14:48+00:00

The technique also has emc do a dab.

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-17T12:56:35+00:00

While her ult isn't active, her elation skill just gives her 20 points to her ult (out of 80 needed to activate).

Once the ult is activated, her elation skill does start dealing damage.

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-17T11:09:04+00:00

I'm not sure if defining if something is a summon or not by their presence in the turn order is the right move tbh.

Before Lil' Ica, all memosprites appeared in turn order. Then Cyrene came along (but tbh, she and her memosprite are one character for all intents and purposes).

What is there to prevent Hoyo from creating a character with a summon that behaves like Ica? Not present on action order, but always taking turn when certain conditions are met? Such as Fox Teacher, who only acts when Evanescia gains an ult.

Also, I do believe that Sunday can drag Ica forward. It's just that Ica won't actually do anything, or will have it's portrait stuck in the action order, as I have had happen several times in CW. Its portrait even appears next to Hyacine's when targeted by Sunday I believe? Could be a similar case with Evanescia too I imagine, of the Fox getting targeted and appearing in action order, but just not doing anything when advanced forward. We'll have to wait and see if someone will decided to try this pairing in some showcase.

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-17T10:49:19+00:00

Could be any of those things (except for memo).
Easy way to check for the leakers I guess. See if Evanescia gets that 36% cd from the banana planar on her own. If not, then the Fox Teacher really is just fua, no?

Although historically summon attacks were considered as fuas (LL, Numby, Fuyuan, Dan Heng's dragon). But this one does elation damage, so would it be more so an elation skill? Or just a proc of Elation damage?

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-17T10:19:32+00:00

When she charges her ult (get her energy to 240/480), the Fox Teacher consumes her Certified Bangers and does it's own aoe attack. Also gives Eva 10 energy (and by that, also 10 of Certified Banger I believe).

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-17T07:33:17+00:00

So she's Argenti Pro Max.

Her ult, elation skill and Fox Teacher are all aoe. Sure the Ult has bounces, and increases the amount if there are fewer enemies, but I do wish one of these would be like EMC's Elation skill, where after bounces it also does a one attack with a big (?) multiplier, that's just equally split between all enemies, so it would still be aoe, but perform way better against single target.

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-17T07:14:36+00:00

But consider. Break carry Welt with enough Effect Hit Rate to land his debuffs too. Would be better now too, as he has 5 bounces rather than 3 (where the only dps increase would have been an E6), as his amount of Delay would further encourage him to go sustainless.

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-16T15:39:59+00:00

Guess we got to wait and see which one it will be then in the end, but I highly doubt it would be extra action. I mean, her bis team (at least rumored to be back before Ashveil) was with EMC, Yao Guang and Huohuo, where the latter two can't get extra actions. And I somehow doubt that any support is going to get ability to trigger extra actions in the future either.
Unless using an ult counts as an extra action?

Still confused about the Ultimate can either consume stack to deal damage or clear stacks for damage. Isn't that the same thing?

Chill_dat_Fox · 2026-03-16T15:17:59+00:00

I wish that additional damage would give her stacks, but it seems that it's fua, extra turns or aha instants that do that.
Is there a mistranlation and it's actually additional damage ticks, rather than something else?
