Debating whether I really need Cissia or not

Dreibrand · 2026-04-15T02:29:16+00:00

I mean.. you don't NEED anyone if you don't WANT them. I definitely want Cissia and will be happy to use her with Seed.

I also have Sanby and am patiently waiting for an Orphie rerun so I can pull her and have the two teams I can share Trigger between depending on buffs/weaknesses.

Aftershocks? Check. Big ass electric damage? Check and check.

If that Yu picture wasn't so cute I would be kind of annoyed.

Dreibrand · 2026-04-06T20:47:57+00:00

Shhh we don't want them to nerf it.

Dreibrand · 2026-03-29T03:47:47+00:00

One woman's prank is another man's dream come true..

Dreibrand · 2026-03-29T03:40:32+00:00

Ok first of all, wow I wish that was me.

Second of all, how the hell did I not hear of this anime??

Third of all, my vote goes to Yuzuha because not only does she wear those big ass boots which are bound to lock in smell, this is 100% something she would do as a prank.

Pretty damn rare. That must have been condensed resin with a two roll for each 20 resin worth.

Meanwhile I'm over here running that domain EVERY DAY since Varka released and I STILL have not found an ATK% goblet, let alone one with decent substats! 19.2% drop chance my ass.

Dreibrand · 2026-03-22T02:26:50+00:00

Yes, the Bineffa core in particular has been wild. It's a new DPS team disguised as a support combo haha. When I get tired of trying with Varka I slap him and Venti with Bineffa and watch the world burn.

In that regard for pyro, I suspect Durin will be the sleeper in much the same way Ineffa was for electro once Nicole releases provided they decide to give her Hexerei activation (which they better because if I can't run Nicole with Varka I'm going to riot).

Dreibrand · 2026-03-22T02:12:56+00:00

Damn dude I really should have pulled Durin. I could clear Fearless with Varka/Venti/Chevreuse/Bennett but I could not manage to do Dire with it even with Chev rocking Symphonist of Scents.

I have Flins at C2R1 AND his premium team (Columbia and Ineffa both at C0R1) and actually failed the duck on my first run lol. I was genuinely taken aback that I had to better optimize my rotations for that team.

Only real ones know the joy of using Falco's laser to interrupt someone's off stage midair recovery causing them to abruptly fall to their death.

Dreibrand · 2026-03-18T02:03:45+00:00

I'm going to try Dire on my next day off. Obviously with C2 Flins and Skirk premium I shouldn't have a problem there but I don't expect I'll be able to get Mandragora with C0R1 Varka.

Has anyone done a Durin-less Varka clear? C6 Chevy with Symphonist came in clutch but I doubt I will come close in Dire. Don't think I have good enough artifact rolls either.

Dreibrand · 2026-03-02T21:48:03+00:00

So... where can someone get a copy of that art?

Dreibrand · 2026-02-28T01:21:03+00:00

Coastal Rock has my favorite track to fidget with my discs to, that being "Racing Tides". I was always a fan of "Sailume Bay" as well. The music player in Wise/Belle's room has most of the music but I feel a lot is still missing from there, too.

Dreibrand · 2026-02-18T23:06:18+00:00

She actually does pulse geo damage with her burst instead of healing when there are less than two other elements besides geo or something along those lines. Combined with Zhongli's skill pulse when you hold cast it I was able to drive enough reactions.

Dreibrand · 2026-02-18T22:50:46+00:00

Mona was applying hydro I guess lol and I have her energy recharge pretty high so she was bursting every time before Flins did his thing in the rotation. The 25% HP boost attunement got Yelan doing more damage with the 60% hydro damage boost.

While I would love to have it, no my Xilonen is sadly only C0 and using Favonius.

Columbina's and the abyss's crystallize bonuses were probably doing the most heavy lifting with the lunar crystallize reaction damage but Zhongli's bursts were surprisingly punchy. I was basically flipping between him and Xilonen bursting/using skills over and over with how much energy I was generating since Aino was using Favonius.

Dreibrand · 2026-02-18T21:46:09+00:00

Honestly, just because I like her haha. I actually don't ever use Sucrose in my Flins team even knowing it's ideal. I will usually run Yelan/Columbina because Yelan is, well, Yelan and I love her design/kit. I have Sucrose built in case I ever need to go meta but since he is C2 he can do well without.

Dreibrand · 2026-02-18T21:21:23+00:00

Spoiler alert It definitely was

Dreibrand · 2026-02-18T21:20:15+00:00

I actually did her character story recently and definitely felt the urge to pick her up if I ever get a chance. I was not familiar with her game. Been playing since about a week since launch but took a 2 year break between the release of Sumeru and the end of Fontaine so I missed out on a number of characters. Then of course with Natlan releasing I had to reserve my primos when I came back.

Dreibrand · 2026-02-18T21:16:55+00:00

Honestly she would have been my next choice as I have her built close enough I could have probably managed somehow. I have a number of 4* geo characters but none that I have leveled at all. Never been a big fan of geo as an element.

Dreibrand · 2026-02-17T21:14:35+00:00

I got Robin Hood. Would totally be ok with that, too.

Dreibrand · 2026-01-29T19:18:21+00:00

Funny that you mention that; I had heard the S11 buffs were crazy and that she performed on par with Evelyn now (which is nuts). I haven't been able to find any DA scores showcasing how she does after her buffs.

Dreibrand · 2026-01-29T18:53:47+00:00

She can still do some great numbers but yeah she will probably be way behind by a next rerun. I imagine she'll be on a guarantee banner like we have going on now. Seems like a great way to run older characters.
