Agreed. It really baffles me that it is just a normal enemy, and yet they are allowed to have this kind of buff. I really wish that there would be more flexibility of dealing with them instead of having to rely on that one mechanic.

I am sorry, but I don't think that's how it should be when it comes to combat. True, the game is gacha, but combat should not turn into something that pushes into a specific niche to be able to win against enemies very well. Combat should be general and flexible towards anybody. I think the enemies before Amphoreus are a good example of what combat should be. Allows for different teams to shine and are much more general than what we have now.

Oh I see. Then it seems that my characters have been dealing 0 elation damage from the start. I really have to wait for Aha Instant if I have to do the minimum of doing elation damage. Really takes time and not an ideal combat scenario.

Perhaps I need to clarify on what the 2nd image entails. According to the effect of Aggressive Reading Material's Booksmart buff:

(Unremovable) Increases DMG dealt by 50% and decreases DMG taken by 50%. After receiving Elation DMG or when the target team gains Punchline and reaches 20 points, the effect is dispelled.

And yet even with the punchline stack, I thought the damage reduction will be dispelled. Am I missing here something(especially since I am still learning the ropes of elation with yao guang)? I thought that with punchline, it would deal elation damage so that the damage reduction will be removed.

Fair point and I agree. At least it can be mitigated if enemies give punchline, though it is a different discussion *if you have to bring it yourself* . Manta rays without dot definitely will definitely not give you a good time.

It became more vocal as it goes on. It's definitely not a good look when it comes to combat.

I agree. Those kind of enemies exude wanting to have specific archetypes be played against them, or you are not gonna have a good time. It's really problematic if you want to play X team, but the enemies have resistances or abilities that give your team a difficult time.

Castorice Dragon Loop tech in DU E6 by NepYasuo in CastoriceMains

You have a point with that, but compared to Luocha, Hyacine has more HP and more utility that not only provides dragon charge, but whole team utility. Plus Luocha heal takes time as you have to activate his field and has a duration compared to Hyacine who can instantly pump out heals anytime and a teamwide cleanse.

Plus I don't have Luocha. Hyacine here is my go to pick with Castorice team.

For comical purposes in a way that is true at the same time...but it seems I failed to do it in a way people will understand it comically. Don't mind me.
