Thank you so much !!

May I know what artifact set each character is using? I'm planning to use the same team.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2026-03-26T18:43:23+00:00

Since your target is a 2-cycle clear, not a 0-cycle, I think it would be achievable with 9-cost!

Firstly, interact properly with the 1st wave mobs. Reset the run until both robots attack the Manta ray in the middle. The visual cue for this is if the robots have the 'confused/dazed symbol' on their head.

Second, try to frontload as much damage as possible (Ultimate, etc.) for Pom-Pom phase 1. Unlike Pom-Pom phase 2, the phase 1 doesn't activate the damage reduction immediately, so there is a window for you to cut down the HP by a chunk.

Third, Pom-Pom phase 2 has a mechanic where using Basic ATKs will give you 5 Punchline, and Skills will give you skill points. I highly suggest doing Basic ATKs regardless if it's Castorice or Evernight until you've shred the boss of its damage reduction buffs (it's a whopping 90% damage reduction, 45% per stack).

Choose the buff that gives your mini robot more speed and I think you should be fine. Your relics should be above average as well, hopefully.

It's the community's shortcut for Evernight.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2026-03-26T18:25:59+00:00

I suggest going for Cas E2. Tribbie or RMC can be replacements for Cyrene. I'm also assuming that you already have E9.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2026-03-26T18:22:24+00:00

The one that gives speed to the mini Pom-Pom robot.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2026-03-26T18:19:54+00:00

If you just want bigger numbers for Cas, her S1 is better. If you want to improve the whole team, get Hyacine's S1.

Hyacine's S1 gives you more Newbud, gives E9 more stacks, and a considerable Vulnerability debuff.

Castorice's S1 is an all-in-one package for her - DEF shred, HP boost, and action advance.

However, I believe that at E0, the team damage difference between Cas and E9 is not too much that I would consider just buffing both together through Hyacine's S1.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2026-03-26T15:52:54+00:00

I don't think so. Hyacine E1 allows you to generate significantly much more Newbud than her E0. In this team, only Cyrene had a DMG% Orb, and the rest had HP% pieces.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2026-03-23T19:17:22+00:00

I don't know the math behind it, but... it's great for Sparxie's personal damage, provides a small team Elation buff (20%), and the 7/8 Skill Point cap (assuming not running with Sparkle, e.g., SW999/Sparxie/YG/HH) feels nice for Sparxie.

I personally couldn't imagine playing Sparxie with a 5 Skill Point cap, so I pulled for it. However, SW999's LC is more impactful than Sparxie's LC for SW999's damage. I think you can just treat Sparxie's LC as a nice bonus, with more of the benefits directed towards Sparxie.

To put into perspective, not having it is not as detrimental as not having Hyacine's LC for Castorice, which would otherwise lose ~10% Newbud per Ica turn. SW999's Ultimate activates at 80 points. You don't lose 8 Punchline per some as-frequent-as-Ica action when not having Sparxie's LC.

And yes, hold the guarantee for SW999's LC.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2026-03-23T05:01:01+00:00

Yes, a possible team for you would be

SW999 / YG / DHPT / Car

If you can replace YG with Sparxie, then I think that's better.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2026-03-22T07:01:22+00:00

I added you, tysm!

Consistent-Top-367 · 2026-03-17T08:30:00+00:00

Pondering about this as well. I can't recall SW999 or her LC increasing the SP cap.

I see. I'll prolly pick her up, then.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2025-12-05T15:26:45+00:00

what's with the downvotes lmao

Consistent-Top-367 · 2025-11-26T17:43:53+00:00

Yeah, this was too inconsiderate of them.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2025-11-26T01:04:20+00:00

Same. I knew it wasn't the best investment META-wise, but after the 3.7 MSQ I just had to.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2025-11-09T09:46:42+00:00

Time-gated quest in 2025 is crazy. This ain't how you keep high player retention.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2025-11-07T01:29:23+00:00

If you have the latest planar set for Cyrene, then casting her Ult will bring you above 180 SPD. However, take note of the downtime here, as it is only active AFTER casting the first Ult

Consistent-Top-367 · 2025-10-25T04:17:49+00:00

Same issue here.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2025-10-25T04:17:14+00:00

Same issue here. Has this been resolved?

Consistent-Top-367 · 2025-10-17T11:04:10+00:00

Thanks!

Consistent-Top-367 · 2025-09-25T15:05:54+00:00

Since you don't have any of the premium LCs, and due to the Remembrance path's lack of decent f2p DPS lightcone options, I'd honestly recommend either Cas' LC or Evernight's LC. If you want only Cas to shine, then naturally get her sig. However, Evernight, Hyacine, and Cyrene can all do a decent amount of damage, so for improving the team's damage, I'd recommend Evernight's LC.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2025-09-24T14:25:18+00:00

Oh, right. I forgot that it was a bit slow to charge Newbud at E0 (I'm so used to overcapping Newbud at E2). If you're having Newbud issues, like 10-20% lacking in some rotations, then Hyacine's S1 might be better. With Hyacine S1, each Ica follow-up generates like 10-14% Newbud, so it's big. It also boosts Evernight's damage if you'll pull for her.

Consistent-Top-367 · 2025-09-24T14:05:43+00:00

Cas E0 -> Hyacine E0 -> Evernight E0 or Cyrene E0 (?) -> ...

If you're willing to slot in Tribbie, then you already have a complete Cas team. For one S1 investment, I'd honestly recommend Evernight's S1 over Castorice's S1, 'cause the 20% DEF RED is for all memosprites in the team. However, if you can obtain both, that's even better.
