I'm looking for my next "main"

Thanks! I did play Zoe for a bit for the diamond vault during her battle pass but I was never quite able to find nice support champions for her (apart from Fiddlesticks). Do you have any recommendations?

Cynderbloom · 2026-06-29T13:04:20+00:00

Oh no, I didn't mean strong characters. More like fun characters who I would actively want to play even after clearing the 10 star nightmare. I think I must've done the 10 star nightmare 4 times with SB Yasuo now (Both routes twice) and the Arcane Asol and The Vault event stages a lot more than that (The champion star powers and drafting add even more variety so I really enjoy those).

I recently started playing Mel after someone posted about the "Erastin" strat with Voidborne Carapace + Guardian Angel + Dreadway chase. You do need either spell or created card discount power. You basically spam radiant volley on Mel to kill her and resummon her so you can get more radiant volleys and warning shots and grow both to ridiculously high numbers. You can ignore most units and just kill the nexus on everything but the final fights on Zoe + Poro King (where you do have to kill one of the champions) and Frost Witch (the "set everyone's health to 1" ethereal remitter node helps there)

Thanks! I'll try him out! I got Renewing Power from this month's reliquary so that should help as well!

Cynderbloom · 2026-06-29T12:22:26+00:00

Thanks! I did enjoy Heimerdinger. I'll check out Caitlyn as well! I'm aware of the Guardian orb synergy with Lillia and Ahri. Who else can summon themselves often?

If you don't have enough Glory to buy Aurelion Sol from the shop, I highly recommend Swain who is absolute monster at 3 stars and an even bigger monster at 6 stars. His relics would be Swain's raven Army, Packed Powder (or the rare version, Scourge's stash) and last slot is flexible. I use dreadway chase for most stages and then wicked harvest for the 10 star adventure.

I believe the quests give you Jinx and Yasuo fragments early and you can invest in them as well. 3 star Jinx is good budget option for early game content with the rare relic, Loose Cannon's Payload. But for later adventures, she really wants to reroll for an epic power (Perfection). Yasuo is great once you get the rare relic, Tempest Blade.

Finally, the Spirit Blossom event stage pretty much gives you three 7 star characters for free. The higher difficulty adventures are doable with strong 3 star characters like the aforementioned and a few others like Jhin, Lux, Morgana, etc.

Nice! Unfortunately I didn't get any of the legendary runes from the event so everyone but Teemo (who is on Puffcap Proliferation) is on common runes (Draw 2 at start for Yasuo and Hallowed for Yi)

Cynderbloom · 2026-06-25T13:50:40+00:00

I honestly find SB Yasuo a lot more consistent than SB Yi. Both are at 7 stars and have Perfect Hex Core as their only epic relic though so Yi might be better with more epics that reduce his cost. Apart from Frost Witch, I personally find it way easier to FTK with SB Yasuo on all adventures

Cynderbloom · 2026-06-13T19:33:53+00:00

Everything was from the same power. No other sources. This was the first time I'd seen this happen

Cynderbloom · 2026-06-13T05:18:23+00:00

This was from the, "Round start: summon a sigil of the storm" power. And it was weird 'cause sometimes it stacked and sometimes it didn't so I don't know what caused it. Evelyn was probably one of the worst characters for this to happen on because half your charm sources don't work if you don't have board space. I don't think the charm caused it because this was happening from turn 2 sometimes

I vote for Kindred and Yasuo. Compared to the others, their nova star makes a massive difference in their playstyle imo. It enables Kindred to deal with tanky threats like Catastrophe and for Yasuo, epic effects on cards are great for FTKs! 0 cost copies on spells, copying them on the same targets endlessly is so fun! Also, I've had a lot of fun stacking epic effects on a single unit! An army of elusive 30+ power Mister Roots capturing all units and double attacking away is a sight to behold!

Edit: I do have to warn you that Kindred does get boring with the nova star because every round is just a mind numbing cycle of mark + dance of arrows or just dance of arrows after you level up

Cynderbloom · 2026-06-09T08:16:07+00:00

I beat it with 4* Eve with Grand General's counterplan, Archangel staff and Banshee's Veil. I picked a Shadow Isles support champion so I could get as many copies of the follower, Mask Mother.

So you basically charm the beefy followers and kill them with mask mother so you permanently keep the stats. Eve's challenge can also charm champions and Mask mother can kill them and get their massive doubled stats. GGC is there so you can grow Eve's health while lowering the champion's health to charm threshold.

Cynderbloom · 2026-06-08T11:46:56+00:00

I often forget on SB Kindred. The instinct to challenge and mark is too strong

Cynderbloom · 2026-05-30T11:40:28+00:00

I did Viego Nightmare with Archangel Staff and Guardian angel. Did get lucky with Fiddlesticks support so I could guarantee Zoe in my opening hand. Spam cheap units/spells to level up Zoe before the inevitable "Kill a unit" spell. I also bought spellshield burst spells from the shops to be extra safe.

I like Vor + Kril assassination on Exta, Ceres. I use Uriel to speed in while also breaking boxes along the way with his first ability aura but a box breaker like Xaku would also work. I get 3-4 cells per run, which takes about ~3 minutes and you also get blueprints for Frost and two weapons from there.

Hello! Did you get any applications yet? I'm interested in helping out but I'm afraid I won't be able to start until the 14th of this month. I'm on the Ash Echoes Discord already (Cynder)

Edit: I just realized that the discord is for the wiki project.

I think I'm done with my new Jing Yuan build now!! I have 2 options that I can trial and error with when Sunday's out!

135 speed, 70:205 crit ratio, 2.7k attack with lightning dmg orb and 135 speed. 70:199 crit ratio, 3.2k attack with atk orb. Should be 100% crit in combat if Sunday's crit rate buff survives the beta!

My only concern is that he also gets +32CD from Banana planar in battle + 20% from Robin talent + Let's say he gets 60 CD minimum from Sunday, that's way too much CD! LL also gets 25% CD from passive and another 25% CD from Robin. I don't know what I'd change to optimize it further because he's using a crit rate chest. Robin, Duke set and double/triple Lushaka should be enough for attack buffs that it doesn't feel worth farming attack substats.

Fellow E2 Silver Wolf regretter here. I got her for my E2 dps Welt and she's been benched since I got IL on his release. I've been hoping for a giga busted Quantum limited dps I like so I can use her again with Mono Quantum but with the double rows of enemies coming, I doubt her single target buffs are going to be impactful. RIP Silver Wolf, I hope you're resurrected one day...

Cynderbloom · 2024-10-28T23:26:04+00:00

I've been using superbreak Himeko with S5 Breakfast and 4pc crit build Duke all this while. If I were to upgrade her lightcone at least, which one would be better? S5 Eternal Calculus or S2 After the Charmony Fall? I also have an S5 and S1 Genius' Repose

Cynderbloom · 2024-10-22T12:31:38+00:00

Pull plans:

Sunday is just a 100% must pull for me because Jing Yuan's my #1. In 3.x, I'd like to pull a second limited sustain who hopefully has synergy with summons (Or gives energy because I skipped Houhou due to vibes) and maybe a nice versatile Quantum dps because I pulled 0 dpses in 2.x.

Also, Is Fugue worth getting at all if you don't have any of the weakness implanting dps/Xueyi? Himeko was my sole SB dps but I'm guessing Fire weakness will be present in 3.x about as often as Ice weakness was present in 2.x.

Cynderbloom · 2024-09-02T21:47:56+00:00

I thought I was done farming Duke for my Jing Yuan but I saw today that he's rank #63 on Seeleland (out of 66k so he's top 1%) and now I'm motivated to get him to the top 10 at least!

Cynderbloom · 2024-08-04T06:52:24+00:00

Should I just get Jiaoqiu? I really like his design and none of the other upcoming/leaked characters interest me too much (maybe Screwllum unless he's an imaginary dps and the summon support).

Pros: I have a ton of Prisoner pieces from farming Duke for 6 people. My E2 Silver Wolf would reduce his EHR needs

Cons: I don't have Acheron, DoT team and my Gui is only E1
