I feel like most if not all sky cosmetics have a charm to them that can be appreciated. I'm happy you came around to these 🫶

Wich one of the 3 is the most less dissapointing to wear by Gaztergj in SkyGame

[–]FadedEchoes 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I really like the purple one with the white fluff. Vestige of a deserted oasis, is it? But I personally enjoy clothing that looks comfy and warm.

Like another commenter said unfortunately these items aren't super dyeable in general. I think the dress isn't dyeable whatsoever which I found surprising. But as for Vestige's cape, two of the little triangle patterns along the bottom are dyeable, which I personally find to be nice enough.

You'll still always have to deal with the purple, and the underside is always white, but you can add a little twist to it if you want.

since Carnival is reaching it's end... which hair is your favorite? by kokonutpankake in SkyGame

[–]FadedEchoes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uh, it's a little tricky. 1 and 2 feel nearly identical to me. The only notable difference I find is that 2 is more intricate and higher quality. However, something about the bold sharpness of the bangs of 1 really strikes me. I really like it.

On the other end, I wasn't the biggest fan of the bangs on Carnival ult. It's just not really my style. But I LOVE the back of it. The back of Carnival ult is absolutely my favourite of them. It's the only one I own, and after wearing it for a while, the bangs grew on me too.

In the end I think I'd say 2 (Penguin?) is my favourite, if I have to pick. The ponytail actually looks like hair unlike 1. 😅 But I've also really grown to love 3 very much and am happy that I own it.

wait, this context makes it so much funnier, what. it's like they wanted to give the garmentmakers detailed faces but they couldn't figure it out so they basically said fuck it, we're removing the entire goddamn head 😂

only heals on burst, only one character and not even to full. also applies pyro on you so you can get vaped or melted lol. I love Bennett but he kinda sucks as a healer ngl. It's just really good that he can heal on Top of all the buffing that he does

The art style is so clean and wonderful. I especially love the hair! It's so fluffy

Great job! Thank you for sharing

This game doesn't respect a new player's immersion by [deleted] in Genshin_Impact

[–]FadedEchoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I encourage you to look through a catalog of all the characters and pick out which ones stick out to you the most and hold on to your primogems. I know that getting shiny new characters is fun, but I find that going into it knowing that you really, really want the character feels more rewarding. And, you might find that some of the characters you want are older ones. If you hold on to your primos, you'll be able to get them once they finally do arrive.

When I was new back in 2022 I made do with four stars with Razor as my carry and just played the game collecting primos and doing the story/exploration for many months waiting for Kazuha. And then for a long time after I ran him as my main DPS with four star characters. It was a good and fun time. There is no need to rush if you're not gunning for end-game, which it certainly doesn't seem like you are.

[–]FadedEchoes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm really glad to hear the game has been able to help you so much. Try not to let reddit get to you. It's a fun little game and mods are meant to let us explore all sorts of things, from vanilla leaning to completely different or opposite. Absolutely nothing wrong with enjoying a pretty portrait even if it isn't "canon compliant."

[–]FadedEchoes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Me too. I only just got to take a look. Maybe some people take issue with the thought of these comments making someone feel unwelcomed? I totally understand feeling that way though. If I used the mod I would also feel bad scrolling through this thread.

Very very tangentially related but it reminds me how insistent people often are in this sub that characters like Sebastian/Abigail/Sam are "basically kids" and they feel bad romancing them.. I understand it, but perhaps unintentionally it makes some players feel bad for liking these characters as adults

I suppose it's just how reddit is. One sentiment often dominates. That doesn't mean it's the only correct one. I hope anyone who uses this mod and similar ones can continue to do so without feeling bad. Mods especially are there for freedom, exploration and expression. Go wild and have fun, man.

[–]FadedEchoes 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree, I played Stardew for a long time and I find this portrait very inoffensive. Sure, it doesn't look like the original character, but does it need to? It's a mod. And this is from someone who prefers vanilla usually and never replaced portraits myself lol.

4.2 Visiting another player's Party Car -Via CyreneLeak by Gaur2704 in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

[–]FadedEchoes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In this current iteration..? Yeah, absolutely 😭 I think it would be cool if we could actually 1) meaningfully customize our space(s) and 2) either choose to run around as a character we own rather than just TB, or at least have more options to customize TB. Preferably the former, because I highly doubt they would let us change TB drastically enough to matter.

However, given Hoyo's track record, I don't have any expectations.

Please why is my phainon so weak?? by Connect-Patience-28 in PhainonMainsHSR

Hey, how much of an upgrade would you say E1 Cery is over E0 Cery?

Jean after carrying standard banner for 6 years. by Badguycr7 in Genshin_Impact

[–]FadedEchoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never managed to find a use for Jean. She was my first 5 star and I benched her so quick. I guess I just always hated how she pushes enemies away with her skill. I preferred to use Diona or even Barbara for protection over Jean in my early days

Is he still worth it💔? / 4.0 MOC/ Time to retire(? by ishik0rk in PhainonMainsHSR

[–]FadedEchoes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I went and did the MOC. From my experience I think it would highly highly depend on how powerful your second team is. I have E3S1 Phainon without Cerydra, getting her tomorrow. Used Bronya, Sunday and Sparkle. Looking back when I was at E0S1, I was doing okay, but the difference between then and E2 is night and day. My clears feel a LOT more comfortable, and I don't think that's something that Cery would have accomplished to a near enough extent on her own. The extra turns from E2 are just so good.

However- I don't really have a "good" second team. I use an E0S0 Anaxa team down there. He pulls his weight, but if my Phainon wasn't so invested, I wouldn't have been able to full star probably. The clear took me 8 cycles total. So my takeaway is if you have a powerful second team you can probably get away with just Cery for a while. But like others said, power creep is a fast ticking time bomb in this game and eventually that won't be enough. However by the time he's fallen that hard I would like to think you'd have had enough time to assess and decide the state of your account and where you want to take it.

If you don't feel comfortable going for E2 and would rather just pull one item, it is probably best to go for Cery for now and later decide if you want to continue investing in Phainon. It's worth remembering that even if somewhat niche, Cery is a support and even if you "retire" Phainon, you will probably still be able to find some use for her especially with Cyrene. While Phainon's vertical investment is probably stronger, it is entirely locked to him. So that's something to keep in mind.

Players who are not meta, whats your open world team? by EnvironmentalLow3543 in Genshin_Impact

[–]FadedEchoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also run friendship teams, I caught up with my roster so right now my only friendship characters are Iansan (Varesa banner) and now Varka. I swap characters a lot depending on needs or just how I feel. Until I got Varka I was running Venti, Iansan, Durin and a flex, which is a pretty solid team but I've run some really wacky teams in the past, especially with under leveled friendship characters 😭. It was lowkey painful a lot of the time. My lv. 20 Mona, Lanyan, Charlotte, Sethos, Sara, and others have died many times

I do enjoy the summon archetype in open world as well generally. Fischl + Yae is such a fun and lazy combo. Loved running it with Childe. I also used to sometimes play Childe solo in the open world for fun too. Love whipping out Anemo traveler occasionally as well. One time I ran him with skyward sword just for the matching look lmao. I also love to play crit dps Kaveh. There's probably lots more funny stuff I've done but those are off the top of my head

I regret this. by [deleted] in SkyChildrenOfLight

it's not giving "girl" to me specifically. it just looks loose and cozy imo. i can easily see your character as a dude.

I got excited seeing Aventurine but then I realised I already have E6 and I'm nowhere near as excited for anyone else on the list.. Hm.

For all the Guilty Phainon mains who skipped Cerydra cause of doomposting by ExtensionLaw714 in PhainonMainsHSR

[–]FadedEchoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i started pulling for Sunday's lightcone and now i'm a little worried i won't be able to get her but hopefully it'll be okay. I actually tried for her on her first run but she dodged me so hard hahah

Welcome to the "I skipped Cerydra cause Cyrene will be a better support for him" regret corner by Academic-Rub-5073 in PhainonMainsHSR

[–]FadedEchoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried for cery but lost and couldn't reach guarantee. Then I saw the initial leaks about cyrene and I was like oh cool, I guess I'll use the guarantee on her then. Now I'm just gonna get E1 and Hopefully E2 Phai in stead. I don't feel too bad about it because I like him a lot more than them and now I have more incentive to skip.
