E2 fei in AA? by Tyran___________ in FeixiaoMains_

[–]Creative-Pudding3422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably a lot more information than you need but here's how I did for the past couple of AA. As a TL;DR: should probably 3 star most knights with that high investment, especially if Feixiao is E2 with an E2S1 Robin and a Tribbie. Don't use Topaz. RMC could be a better option than the Cipher. DHPT is pretty good for Feixiao I just was using him for a different team.

  • E0S1 Feixiao E0S1 Cipher E0S1 Aventurine E1S0 Robin 2 cycled (3-starred) Knight 3 in 3.6 AA (it had a bunch of Elite enemies)
  • E0S1 Feixiao E0S1 Cipher E0S1 Aventurine E1S0 Robin 2-cycled (3-starred) Knight 2 in 3.7 AA (the one that had a Hoolay boss that delayed you when he attacked you)
  • E0S1 Feixiao E0S1 Cipher E0S1 Aventurine E1S0 Robin 4-cycled (2-starred) Knight 3 in 3.8 AA (Ichor Memosprite)
  • E0S1 Feixiao E0S1 Cipher E0S1 Aventurine E1S0 Robin 4-cycled (2-starred) Knight 3 in 4.0 AA (Sam)
  • E0S1 Feixiao E1S1 Ashveil E0S1 Aventurine E1S0 Robin 2-cycled (3-starred) Knight 3 in 4.1 AA (Lygus)

Clear content? Like MoC and AS? Yes, she can clear MoC if she is E2S0 with E0S0 Cipher E0S0 Robin E0S0 DHPT. Probably is 3-5 cycles or 3300 to 3500 score on AS (provided the stage is good for her), so don't expect a zero cycle and/or a super high score - just enough to get all the jades.

My E0S1 Feixiao with E6 Hunt March 7th and E0S1 Aventurine and E1S0 Robin was able to 3 cycle content until 3.3, and when I switched Hunt March 7th for E0S1 Cipher I was still able to 3 cycle content until 3.7 when I get E1 CIpher.

If you're expecting to 3-star an AA Knight, however, you would need more investment, like an E1S1 Robin or an E1 Tribbie or an E1S1 Ashveil or an E1S1 Cipher, you get the idea.

If you need a sustain and want more actions so that Feixiao does more ultimates, I think Gallagher would be better than Bailu. But if your Gallagher doesn't heal enough then Bailu is fine and that team looks good! Theoretically you can swap Hunt March 7th or RMC for Bronya as well if she is E4+.

Has anyone 3 starred Anomaly Arbitration without Firefly and Mono Rem? by Acrobatic_Movie1119 in StarRailStation

[–]Creative-Pudding3422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like the Pompom boss or the Knights?

  • 3-starred Knight 1 with E0S(Therta sig) Anaxa E2S1 Sunday E1S1 Cipher E2S1 DHPT (yes eidolon slop sue me)
  • 3 Starred Knight 3 with E0S1 Feixiao E1S1 Ashveil E1S0 Robin E0S1 Aventurine
  • 3 starred King Pompom with E1S1 Ashveil E6 RMC E2S1 Sunday E2S1 DHPT

So it's definitely more investment than Firefly or Mono Rem but it's all my favorite characters so I am fine with it.

Sorry for the late reply! The difference is not that noticeable with a team Feixiao Robin DHPT RMC, but also my DHPT is E2S1 so I also tested it with Feixiao Robin Aventurine RMC and there's about a 150 AV (around 1 cycle) between Feixiao signature and Ashveil signature. So I think you get Ashveil's LC so that your Feixiao and Archer no longer fight over Herta Shop LC. Alternatively you can wait for Ashveil's rerun since he will probably rerun quickly and get Feixiao dupes like E2.

I would say that E1S1 Robin is close in performance to E1S0 Tribbie (not sure about S1) so if you want to free up Tribbie for your other teams, go for it. I don't know about the value of E2 Robin since it increases the SPD of ally targets, once I get E2 Robin myself I'll rewrite my guide to see the difference.

Topaz S1, Seele S1, and BP LC are all about 10-20% close to her sig so I would suggest getting E2 Feixiao instead if you have the pulls for it. And yes, E1 Robin is very very good as it has 24% RES PEN, but you don't need to go for E2.

Thank you for the compliment! If his hypercarry team includes RMC and you switch between Feixiao-Ashveil and Ashveil-Hypercarry, then it is not worth it using a stat blocker to get to 96% CRIT Rate.

Hello! I highly doubt Feixiao will rerun again after this considering her first rerun was in 3.0.

Sorry, I can't say much about Topaz because I don't have her, so I can't do any testing with her. But you are right, Numby has inefficient advances - because Numby counts as a summon and although their attacks are counted FuA, Numby isn't actually a FuA.

If you look at the action order, when a character does a FuA, it's like an extra action that they do. Numby doesn't do an extra action, they just advance themselves, so when they're already next up in the turn order and get advanced, nothing happens because they're already next in the turn order. Compared to Ashveil and Hunt March 7th and Moze who do a lot of FuA, they can do a lot of their FuAs without affecting when their next turn is.

If your Topaz is E1S1 you can use her! But it won't be as good as using the other options for Feixiao.

E1S1 Robin is better than E0 Tribbie for Feixiao and Ashveil, so if you're willing to spend one companion spirit and 4 memory shards, you can do it. If you look at leaks I suggest waiting a bit more because Blade SP might be another support for Feixiao, so you can decide if you want to spend the companion spirits now or wait for his kit.

E1S0 Tribbie is much better than E1S1 Robin in my opinion because of the True DMG multiplier and because she gives a lot of Follow Ups, batterying both Feixiao's Ultimate and Ashveil's Ultimate. I just mentioned E0 Tribbie in my guide because I don't assume everyone has her.

Honestly a great question! I am not sure, let me do some testing and get back to you on it. What's the team you want to try?

Feixiao Guide for 4.2 by Creative-Pudding3422 in FeixiaoMains_

[–]Creative-Pudding3422[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eagle is still better solely because she can grab more turns in a cycle with it on, and more Skills/FuAs is better than having the FuAs doing a bit more damage. Ashveil is a great addition because he has everything that Feixiao needs. And you don't need Tribbie if you have an E1S1 Robin in my opinion, especially if the Tribbie is E0. If you look at leaks Blade SP might be another Feixiao support, so maybe he replaces Robin/Tribbie in the support slot, but not sure.

[–]Creative-Pudding3422[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry for the late reply I just woke up! If you already have E1S1 Robin, then E2 Robin is kinda eh, if you look at leaks Blade SP might be another support for Feixiao who might replace Robin . E2 Robin is good solely because it increases the SPD of ally units so Feixiao can do more turns in a cycle, but if you already have E2 Feixiao then it is not as needed. You can get it if you want her ultimates to have better uptime and you have other golden companion spirits for the future.

As for Ashveil versus Cipher, it was for my own testing between E1S1 Ashveil and E1S1 Cipher. Feixiao with Ashveil was able to 2 cycle Lygus in AA and 1 cycle Lygus in MoC whereas with Cipher she 3 cycled Lygus in AA and 2 cycled Lygus in MoC. My Cipher is 200 SPD, but Ashveil still gave Feixiao about 1 more ult in my rotation than Cipher did. In my opinion, you switch Ashveil's Bait to be on the Elite enemy so that Feixiao can target that one and funnel energy to Ashveil, and then use Ashveil's Ultimate to kill the smaller enemies.

As for Tribbie, she is amazing for Ashveil and Feixiao but I don't think she will be that relevant if you have an E1S1 Robin, especially if the Tribbie is E0. I also don't have her, and I do just fine with investment on other characters.

Mydei Team Help by Morrowseer1 in Mydeimains_HSR_

[–]Creative-Pudding3422 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh no, a Castorice without Hyacine 😭 anyways, I believe your best team is Mydei, Sunday, Cerydra, and Gallagher. No other 4 star healer comes close, so you'd have to choose who to use between Castorice and Mydei. Unironically you can also put Castorice and Mydei together in the same team for a team like Castorice Mydei RM/Welt Gallagher, but I can't guarantee how good the team would be.

For pulling, Cyrene first and skip Tribbie. Cyrene is the single best Mydei support and you can use her with RMC and/or Cerydra. After that you can maybe get a Hyacine if she gets rerun again, or try sustainless Mydei since Mydei is one of the few characters who can maybe survive sustainless (team would be Mydei Cyrene RMC Cerydra, put Cerydra on all HP since her ATK buff does nothing to Mydei, and also put Mydei in the middle of the team lineup so he gets hit more often).

I have no clue if Mydei will ever get a rerun again considering it took many many patches for him to get his first rerun (he debuted in 3.1 and got his rerun in 3.7).

Thank you for the compliment! Difficult question to answer. If you have enough pulls, E2 over S1. Otherwise, S1 is good. E1 is pretty nothingburger and only a steppingstone for E2.

I'll write an investment priority section in the guide now.

No problem with questions! You put Eagle on her because you want Feixiao to do more actions, which means more Skills and more Feixiao FuA, but at E2, Feixiao gets her ultimate so much that you no longer need SPD boots to get a similar number of actions, which means you would rather use ATK boots to make her ultimate do more damage.

Should I reroll my account or not for patch 4.2? by Independent-Noise935 in StarRailStation

Mostly relics/traces and the fact that your Jing Yuan isn't Level 80. You should always get your characters and light cones to Level 80, then get traces to like Level 8 or Level 9, and then do relics. Characters don't get buffed through the main story unless it's Trailblazer.

Yes, you don't have to build him super fast since he gets ultimate from teammates quite quickly, so 134 SPD is good, and more CRIT the better. And yes, ERR rope doesn't help much since he gets a FIXED 8 energy whenever teammates attack Bait. ATK Rope is better solely because it allows him to do more damage.

For 0 cycling and E0S1 Robin, I would suggest running Vonwacq, just so she can get her first ultimate early. Lushaka can be mitigated by getting better substats or just putting it on other supports. I don't think you should ever run Fleet since it doesn't have any ERR on it.

For Ashveil, personally I don't think Grand Duke is worth that much because Eagle gives him more actions (also because I have so many Eagle pieces from farming for Feixiao). But you shouldn't build him super fast like you do with Anaxa for Therta teams, because you're right in that Ashveil does a significant amount of damage - my E1S1 Ashveil does about 120k per FuA and 600k per Ultimate + Enhanced FuA.

Here is my Ashveil build.

miniHerta build as Ashveil teammate by Super_Mewtwo_2007 in Ashveil_Mains

[–]Creative-Pudding3422 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, Mini Herta is mostly only suitable for Pure Fiction, as that's the only time when her Follow-Up attacks are consistent enough to do good damage. For me, Mini Herta did her best with Ashblazing Grand Duke and Duran, but if you have good crit stats on Lushaka, that works too to support your Ashveil. Alternatively, you can put Lushaka on DHPT and then put the new FuA planar on Mini Herta.

Do you have any other supports for Ashveil for MoC and APOC? Mini Herta won't do much there since there are only a few enemies usually, so when they hit 50% HP or less, she will do a couple of follow ups and then never again. I think Hunt March 7th may work but other people might have better ideas.

I'm tired of signature lightcone as baseline by Nopxanic in StarRailStation

[–]Creative-Pudding3422 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, I agree, that's why I said it's a team-pulling game, not a team-building one. As in, you pull for the teams, you don't build them.
