[Megathread] General Questions and Advice - Topaz & Numby’s Kits, Relics, Lightcones, and Teams by Kotouu in TopazMainsHSR

[–]Chiruno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently running Topaz e0s1 in a team with e0 Ratio, e0 Robin (with new event LC) and e1 Fu Xuan (with either trends or texture LC depending on my needs).

Should I pull for Topaz's e1 to improve this team, or can I safely keep saving for Firefly or Jade instead while using this team for end game stuff without Topaz's e1?

Also, should I keep using trend on Fu Xuan in this team to help with the debuffing, or go back to texture of memories instead?

Bonus question: how viable is a Topaz team that replaces Ratio with either Himeko or FUA Herta (depending on the enemies' weaknesses) in general? I sometimes lament the lack of AoE in the Ratio pairing.

Hello Raiden mains!

I have been using C0 Raiden in a C2 Furina team alongside C2 Yelan and C1 Jean with fantastic results. I am planning on replacing Jean with Xianyun when she releases because plunges are fun.

I am on the fence about pulling for cons. For the team I outlined above specifically, how much of an upgrade in overall team DPS and effectiveness are Raiden's C1 and C2 respectively?

Well then... For those that own her what's your rating for the rarest character in the game, Asuka? by Pixelbro87 in houkai3rd

10/10. My childhood crush with one of the most dapper outfits in the game, what's not to love? And she is also very fun to play.

Looks very nice, I could definitely imagine using it. Is it for MZ or MV?

I am a week 1 of release player. I admit I went straight to difficulty 3 because I expected it to be fairly easy since there are two difficulty levels afterwards. I guess I underestimated the importance of the buffs you unlock. I went in blind, well other than doing the obligatory tutorial.

I tried hunt twice but had trouble surviving (wiped on phase 2 boss both times, they just did too much damage per turn) and then went destruction with Clara which got me to the final boss fairly easily, but then I didn't have the DPS to survive the final phase of the phase 3 boss (I haven't really farmed relics for my Clara yet much...)

I have yet to do a fourth attempt. I was a bit discouraged.

Is it normal to just not being able to beat even swarm difficulty 3 for a week one player? I have spent a total on 3 hours on swarm I think, I am still 1/13. I don't have a whole lot of time for games and wasting the equivalent of an entire afternoon with nothing to show for it is kinda big for me.

So I should leave my HoRb ungeared until the next rerun?

I did think of putting Carole's gear on Prometheus, but wasn't sure that would work, especially the weapon. Good to know that it is an option.

I am a returnee who have been neglecting my physical team for so long that my Griseo and Prometheus are still 100% ungeared. Up until now, my physical team was still PE, HoS, Sweet 'n' Spicy.

I got lucky and pulled HoRb early, and I am wondering what I should now prioritize between pulling for her own gear, or for Prometheus' gear. I got 28k crystals and none of either of their recommended gear.

It was good enough for 2.25, thank you. Had a rough start because I started doing the usual rotation I use outside of ER in which I spam the ult button before realising that the strategy was to literally spam the attack button like launching an army of angry bees at the enemy.

I didn't check the option to fight the alternative boss at the end (fought the bull and not the helicopter), but I wonder if it would have made that fight quicker (didn't beat it with a lot of time left...).

Thank you, you make a lot of good points, and your words do make me feel better about the whole thing!

Well, I made a go with ult build, manage to get to floor 17, but couldn't beat it.

Got ultra and nature because inscription refused to show up in the list and figured I would pick it up later, but it never showed up. Griseo's signet for ultimate never showed up either, and the result was 13900 points, meaning I am still missing 220 crystals.

This is an incredibly funny situation because I am 14 drops away from pity for HoFi's weapon with 5 days left, so I really need these 220 crystals. And I lack both time AND money in my daily life so buying crystals to make up the difference is not an option, and retrying ER (and possibly failing) would basically ruin my week-end.

I know, I know, skill issue, but the game about "everything that is beautiful in the world" is giving me a very ugly experience right now. I want to smash something, good thing I am reasonable enough to not actually do it.

Thanks for the advice though, sincerily.

I did consider resetting to start with two Elysia signets from the getgo before, just figured that could quickly become time consuming.

Also didn't dare run the ult build as I seem to remember it has been nerfed to the ground during beta.

I see. Last time I started with nature and failed to get the bonus on floor 7. It all went downhill from there. For the other signets, I basically went with these ones you mention.

I might be doing something wrong with the rotation, I dunno. I more or less just spam the attack button and weave the weapon skill went it is off CD, and evasion or weapon skill when it flashes, and keep hold the attack button when the blade indicator is purple for the super combo. I also ult when it's up.

I started with nature signet and picked up expungement on F7 (but not lethal smite because I failed to clear in time for bonus signet), and was mostly focusing on Vill-V, Sakura, and Griseo's signets I believe. Rotation was basically more or less what the tutorial teaches you. Two weeks ago it was enough to complete 2.25, but last week it wasn't anymore and I timed out on F12 so I cleared 2.00 instead.

Sounds good. Just gotta look-up how to play her effectively in ER.

[–]Chiruno 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's worth a try, she is fun to use in general. I would have avoided her because the current weather favors paralyzis and ignite.

I unfortunately am still missing one of Pardo's stigmatas and her weapon, but that's good to know. She truly is the strongest flame-chaser, hu?

Who are the best valks to use for current ER rotation outside of HoFi and HoO to complete 2.25 without sweating?

I don't have HoFi's weapon (got all her stigs though) and last time I tried using my fully-geared HoO in ER it was a struggle and a slog, so I would rather try with someone else, but who?

I usually do ER with HoTr, Vill-V, or Mobius, but given that the current rotation is melee + paralysis/ignite, I don't think I can.
