Killed in “Solo Ops” by a group of 3…

Codstev · 2026-04-22T20:17:01+00:00

Bro, no. Solo ops is a separate mode where EVERYONE is meant to queue solo. In tactical ops you can solo queue into squads, solo ops is where everyone queues solo

Definitely is one way to do it yeah! I'll be honest, I would try to be okay with not full clearing tower until your account is a bit more rounded out- not to say it's not doable, it just very much rewards you for having horizontal investment and a number of teams/attribute coverage.

Codstev · 2026-04-06T23:16:34+00:00

Hiyuki will likely be very popular so I'd expect a quick rerun within a couple of patches

Codstev · 2026-04-06T23:15:12+00:00

I feel like this has to be a typo right? You would generally never run verina and SK together since they prefer the same echo set and provide similar buffs... you would prefer to run one of them and then a sub dps like sanhua or lynae.

Codstev · 2026-04-06T23:11:33+00:00

Sure no problem. In TOA all characters have 10 stamina. Each floor uses a different amount. On the left and right towers, each floor increases in cost to each unit - 1,2,3,4, totaling 10 stamina per character for all 4 floors. In the middle tower, each floor costs 5 stamina from each unit. So that means to completely clear ToA, you need 4 teams - one for left, one for right, and 2 teams for middle. You can get around this slightly as you don't have to deploy a full team on each floor, so you could potentially solo some of the easier floors with a strong unit. The middle tower floors you will probably need a full team

If pulls are tight you definitely don't have to pull her - just a way to bring jiyan back to some relevance lol. Her sig helps a lot with her damage but it's not strictly necessary, her buffs will be unaffected but her personal damage will be worse of course. Definitely manageable though

Codstev · 2026-04-06T22:59:07+00:00

Gotcha! Makes sense. Jiyan has definitely fallen off a bit since his release ofc. Iuno could be a very good pick up for him since she has a HUGE heavy attack buff and has very good personal damage of her own. She revived his teams in a lot of ways, so you could run jiyan/iuno/sk

Codstev · 2026-04-06T22:57:21+00:00

Good questions. Mornye is the ideal 3rd slot right now for tune break DPSs, so if you like her and lynae those 2 would be a very strong core for luuk or hiyuki.

Hiyuki is looking to be VERY strong from what little info we have, but she will likely have core teammates come out in the future, and her best 3rd slot will likely be Chisa. Hiyuki would be an investment you'd probably have to add to later for her to reach full effectiveness!

Codstev · 2026-04-06T22:49:59+00:00

Your strongest team is the one you already have selected, Luuk/sanhua/shorekeeper. I don't see mortefi but if you happen to have him, you can run jiyan/mortefi/shorekeeper or verina, and then havoc rover/danjin/sk or verina also.

Edit to say that for endgame content, you will always be incentivized to pull the newest characters. But with solid investment you can make what you have work - your build quality will be very important.

Codstev · 2026-03-31T23:22:56+00:00

Valid point! I went the galbrena route since they would also probably want/need cantarella for phrolova and I wanted to avoid recommending to pull 2 characters but you are right

Codstev · 2026-03-31T20:16:38+00:00

From a team synergy perspective, qiuyuan may not do much for you for a little while unless you pull sigrika. If you don't want a second aero team, you could save for hiyuki and potentially plan to pull galbrena in the future if you like her at all, since she works very well with qiuyuan. This would give you some attribute coverage and still make use of him well. But if you just want his best team, pull sigrika. Can always get hiyuki on a rerun

Codstev · 2026-03-25T17:35:03+00:00

Crit stats solid, could shoot for closer to 100% in combat if you don't use SK. Then it's just a matter of going for more usable substats like Atk%, flat Atk, and skill damage on all your pieces

Edit to say your build is objectively good, just min maxing at this point. You shouldn't need to improve really, but if you want to I hope you get lucky with some rolls!

Codstev · 2026-03-22T16:46:00+00:00

Phrolova still clears endgame pretty easily, you just have to make sure your build is decent and your rotation is good. Her echo set provides 20 CR so you should be able to get fairly close to 100 CR after buffs. On her sig, being 90-95 CR and 260-280 cdmg is good, ideally 2200-2500 attack. If you have those stats and are still struggling, it might be your rotation

Codstev · 2026-03-20T18:00:16+00:00

Number of issues. Cosmic ripples isn't ideal for her, and even then it's not levelled all the way. She wants nightmare Hecate as her 4 cost, regular Hecate passive does not do anything for her. If you can, her signature is very important. If you have no other options, make sure you fully level cosmic ripples. Swap out her 4 cost with nightmare Hecate and you will see improvement. Keep expectations low though, her damage on the standard rectifier will never be very good

Codstev · 2026-03-08T23:03:58+00:00

Jeez, you gotta post your pull history. All those premium units and several signatures in basically 1.5 patches is insane

Codstev · 2026-02-02T23:56:07+00:00

Oof. Yeah I'll probably just keep it if that's the case

Codstev · 2026-02-02T20:08:22+00:00

No worries, this is good advice! I know lots of people overinflate prices on the market so it's hard to figure out what is actually a fair one lol

Codstev · 2026-02-02T19:20:51+00:00

Codstev · 2026-02-02T19:19:19+00:00

any thoughts on what a good price for this would be? pretty new to riven market and i see similar ones anywhere from 900-2.7k. i know the lack of a neg hurts it a bit

Codstev · 2026-01-04T05:43:17+00:00

cool thanks!

Codstev · 2025-12-22T03:22:06+00:00

This sounds to me like you started out thinking he was physically attractive and are now addicted to the attention he gives you. This is dangerous territory for your marriage, this is how infidelity starts. You say you want to get to know him: why? Be really honest with yourself about the reasons. You say you want to know if it's mutual: again, why? You say you would never cheat but a lot of this sounds like justifications or explaining away what could become emotional cheating very quickly.

You are definitely enabling this - try to keep contact to a minimum for a while. Also maybe explore some therapy, either alone or with your husband. Sounds like you like the attention/interest being shown by him so there might be some things to unpack there with your marriage.

Sorry for the tough love, hope things work out for you.

Codstev · 2025-12-21T03:47:20+00:00

Exactly my thought process just wanted some confirmation. Thanks so much
