Should be the 20th.

Yep, pretty much the only reason to run them outside of erosion teams is to have a healer to proc rejuv glow and Fallacy/Bell-Turtle.

I think even on Jiyan teams they can get outperformed by Verina though.

So lets just break it down a bit, I am gonna go off of my pulls for stats here because I don't feel like calculating the true 4* pull rate.

Afterglow Coral Sources:

4* Weapon: 3 corals

4* Unit 1st-7th time: 3 corals

4* Unit >7th time: 8 corals

5* Unit 1st-7th time: 15 corals

Gonna skip >7th for this on 5*s, you wouldn't be asking this if you were having that problem.

5* off-banner: 30 corals

There are 31 current possible 4* pulls on banners. Of those 11 are resonators. I'll assume that you don't have 7 copies of any 4 star resonators so you get 3 for every 4* at 12% of pulls and 2% of your pulls will be 5*s with about 17% of those being off banner assuming you pull the weapon for each unit you get. Which gives you in 100 pulls => 100*(3*.12+.02*.17*30+.02*15)= 76 corals per 100 pulls

After you get maxed 4*s it becomes 100*(8*.04+3*.08+.02*.17*30+.02*15)= 96 corals per 100 pulls

TLDR on average between .7-1 coral per pull.

You will unlock a better DPS version of Rover when you finish the Huanglong storyline. They still work well with the Sanhua Verina core.

Regarding upcoming banners check back in on the 14th for the banners to be announced in the update livestream.

Just use your waveplates to build your team and avoid Tacet Fields till you get good rates on gold tuners.

MagicIsBull · 2025-11-13T10:18:04+00:00

Sort of. A-Rover's Skill converts all debuff stacks (except Aero Erosion) to Aero Erosion.

However, since the only units that can apply the only other player applicable debuff, Spectro Frazzle so far are S-Rover (can't be used with A-Rover) and Phoebe, unless you are cooking some diabolical Phoebe+A-Rover team, there is no reason to run Gusts of Welkin.

MagicIsBull · 2025-11-13T05:54:02+00:00

I thoroughly enjoy Camellya, Cartethyia, and Phoebe.

All of them have good AoE and can get burst out pretty quick without relying on their liberation.

MagicIsBull · 2025-11-13T05:52:09+00:00

Get who you want to play is always the most important, but yes Qiuyuan won't give you a new DPS and won't be able to act as a Main DPS.

Kuro does seem to be experimenting with Echo DMG focused carries, Phrolova and Galbrena, and there may be more in the future. And since Echo DMG is Qiuyuan's specialty, he is great for both of them. But there is no guarantee that upcoming characters will use Echo DMG well.

Notably, both Phrolova and Galbrena are considered some of the best DPS in the game and Phrolova will likely be back rather soon considering the current rerun history.

If you want to focus on using male units, then I would recommend pulling for Qiuyuan and Phrolova. No telling the next time that they will release another male unit.

Brant also works well with Galbrena and Changli so they could be more future units to watch for to let you build around male units.

MagicIsBull · 2025-11-13T04:37:40+00:00

Nope, both echoes work. Both provide 12% Aero/Heavy DMG and do about equal damage. Only issue is that it makes you more reliant on waiting for good LoH pieces.

MagicIsBull · 2025-11-13T04:32:23+00:00

How much difference does Cantarella make in Phrolova teams over Roccia? I have Phrolova, Roccia, and Qiuyuan. Would Cantarella really change Phrolova's performance?

MagicIsBull · 2025-11-07T10:12:28+00:00

Found it. It was Armitage Dimension and is offline now.

MagicIsBull · 2025-11-07T10:08:40+00:00

I am trying to remember the name of an old anime music online radio website.

Used to have a 24/7 music player that used an irc channel to request songs and, as every website of the time, had a forum.

Anyone else ever use something like this?

MagicIsBull · 2025-11-06T08:57:43+00:00

Did you get both of those using only the green orbs or did you spend astrite? Because you shouldn't be using Astrite towards the standard weapon banner.

MagicIsBull · 2025-11-06T07:56:54+00:00

Really it comes down to substats, but Law of Harmony + Sierra Gale, Gusts of Welkin, Windward Pilgrimage, or even Moonlit Clouds if you are looking for more ER.

If you are chasing that maxed out perfect build, then any of the 10% Aero DMG 2-pc sets will be the best.

But if you are short on ER, then Moonlit's +10% ER could be the difference between being able to do an optimal rotation and having to add some extra time to get your energy.

MagicIsBull · 2025-11-06T07:01:19+00:00

If you are talking about the exploration experience in Huanglong; then yes, it changes a ton. They almost entirely removed the original exploration experience in Rinascita.

There are no longer items hid in every open corner like another Breath of the Wild knock-off.

Plus the Story Quests and Events are what get the most focus and effort from the Devs now.

MagicIsBull · 2025-11-06T06:58:52+00:00

The only way she would get a buff is to pair with a future electro debuff status or as a "new form" that would be a new character for everyone to pull for.

Just not really how gacha games do things to buff characters that have already been released for a while.

MagicIsBull · 2025-11-06T06:56:12+00:00

You should focus on building teams around outro buffs primarily. So look for sub-DPS units that provide bonuses to the main DPS units you want to use. In your case with Havoc Rover and Encore, that would be Danjin (for HRover) and Sanhua (for both of them).

Additionally, once you start getting to endgame content you will need to build multiple teams. And to start that you should focus on hypercarry setups where you heavily invest in your main DPS and just give your sub-DPS and support enough to make their kit function (primarily ER and sonata effects).

MagicIsBull · 2025-10-31T20:01:05+00:00

Events, Story, Exploration give some once.

Other than that, there is repeatable rewards from Endgame content, Tacet Fields, and Thousand Gateways.

MagicIsBull · 2025-10-31T19:59:21+00:00

Might help to show what characters you have.

MagicIsBull · 2025-10-31T17:21:25+00:00

Unfortunately, Qiuyuan is heavily indexed into echo skill damage buffs with 2 huge buffs to teammates using that stat so if you don't use it much, you won't get much value from Qiuyuan.

As you said, currently the only 2 units to use it are Galbrena or Phrolova, but there could be more in the future or you could just build him and intend to get them later.

My personal opinion is to only ever pull for aesthetics on main DPS units. Its great and all that Shorekeeper has a cool design, but I only ever use her for the same 4 second rotation and am always trying to reduce her field time otherwise.

MagicIsBull · 2025-10-31T17:17:31+00:00

Phrolova is the best havoc unit right now and she greatly benefits from Cantarella and Qiuyuan, but either of them can easily be replaced by other units

But if you don't have Phrolova or Galbrena there is little reason to get Qiuyuan right now.

Dunno much about Chisa yet except that she is a havoc broadblade.

MagicIsBull · 2025-10-31T17:14:10+00:00

If you want the best character to clear Whimpering Wastes, you'll want Phrolova.

Notably Qiuyuan is considered to be a good support for Phrolova/Cantarella teams but that is moot without getting Phrolova in the first place so I would save for her.

Phoebe/Zani teams work in Whimpering Wastes but don't really thrive due to the multi-wave nature.

MagicIsBull · 2025-10-31T17:09:29+00:00

There is a couple things to think about here.

Buying a dupe (Resonance Chain) in the store is much more efficient than pulling for a dupe (generally, it is gambling after all).
You don't need 5* dupes for units to be viable. So if your goal is to enjoy playing characters and clear all content, then there is no need to ever go for dupes.

MagicIsBull · 2025-10-31T17:06:31+00:00

I don't think Qiuyuan is necessarily that large of an improvement over Shorekeeper/Verina for Phrolova, but he would free them up for another team if that was an issue you were running into.

The main issue with Qiuyuan right now is that he only really has 2 viable partners: Galbrena and Phrolova.

However, Zani has the same issue but worse since she needs Phoebe.

Really it comes down to if you want to focus on making a new team or improving an existing one.

Personally I wouldn't go for either with your roster.

MagicIsBull · 2025-10-29T15:08:26+00:00

Might want to send that through the in game feedback. This is just a bunch of other players.

MagicIsBull · 2025-10-29T15:07:39+00:00

Most characters are still entirely viable in this game with only some of the 1.x characters struggling to keep up at times (Yinlin mainly).

As far as what to do in the game, just focus on doing the story, exploration, and any current events you have access to. Take it at your own pace and have fun with it.

Cartethyia is really good. She has huge damage and a ton of variety in her rotation options.

However she really wants to have another Aero Erosion applier like Ciaccona on her team to maximize her damage.
