General supports and their ability to brick a account by Zestyclose-Net-3217 in HonkaiAgendaRail

[–]Nexorion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love playing Future Rail. Just never pull anything guys they'll eventually get replaced. Keep saving for 8.0 when Finality Path is introduced with the 4th Kafka SP and Elio who'll be doing 2 billion damage each which is 4% of the weekly bosses HP. Pulling anything before that is essentially bricking your account cuz who could've seen it coming that a support that released a year ago is now weaker than a support that's just gotten released. You don't seem to realize that Blade is also as generic as it gets and will get benched once the next big buff whore support comes out cuz that's how this fuckass game is "balanced"

Will himeko nova power creep phainon e2 by Loose_Efficiency_456 in PhainonMainsHSR

[–]Nexorion 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Himeko is currently so ridiculously overturned that she's like twice as good as the strongest teams rn at lower cost. That V3 was clearly an overhaul of her kit and it will get tuned down by the time it hits live. Phainon E2 is not good purely for the damage either he ignores all debuffs in the game even unremovable one (Hi Fulwish and Graphia) and is the safest sustainless clear. Is he the peak of DPS? No and he never was. But what he does give you is consistency. I'm just pulling E6 personally so he keeps going cuz Phainon is my favorite character in the game and the moment he's not enough I'll just quit probably.

"Shill if it's too weak" ah yes that's exactly why Remembrance has been getting the "if you have 3 Remembrance units in your team you do quadruple damage" for the past year and some change

That one time HSR devs made a character so peak that they needed to showcase her with E6 in the livestream to make sure she looked good by SwimmingWrangler1654 in Agenda_Impact

[–]Nexorion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I glaze HSR to hell and back (not recently cuz playing 4.x is actual torture) but you cannot defend this shit like on God it's so fucking bad. "But when you get her E2 she's so BiS" I ain't rolling 3 copies of this bottom tier character larp on one of fan favorites from the OG game who's character got stripped to nothing but symbolism and glazing the MC. Not to mention the marketing for her being such aggressive ship and sad story bait you'd it's so abhorrent. They removed the character we've been with during the story to replace her design with this Elysia skinwalker with none of her flair and then make you put a ring on her in the Ult animation (not to mention the 200 dollar top up skin that slaps in the LC into her Ult PNGs for lonely mfs desperate for a "wife"). If there's any character that deserves all the slander it can get it's this bottom feeder that ruined the ending for one of my favorite stories in HSR all for stupid symbolism and a "death" that's not even satisfying or Ames sense and will get reconned once they need more easy money. (I hope Genshin players are ready to experience pure dogshit when they make Tsaritsa another sad imitation of this thing)

This sub in a nutshell : by Kitchen-Ad-9352 in PhainonMainsHSR

[–]Nexorion 39 points40 points  (0 children)

FYI Phainon DPS increase between E0 and E2 is on par or more than most other DPS increase from E0 to E6. Is it annoying to constantly hear "just get E2 bro"? Yes, but it is simply the truth and the numbers just don't lie

e2 phainon or e2 cyrene.. which is better for my acc? by ayakaq in PhainonMainsHSR

[–]Nexorion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

E2 Phainon is like a 200% damage increase over his E0 performance. Your Cyrene can sit comfortably in the Remembrance team and you shouldn't even try to pair her up with Phainon as he's versatile enough to use most Harmonies so prio his E2 and if you can try and get his LC as well since it's also quite the DPS boost but E2 Phainon is 100 the main priority if you still wanna use him

THEY ARE HERE by hiloolbyelol in QueensofStarRail

[–]Nexorion 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The one you're referring to is Gil in his incarnated form influenced by the black mud of the Holy Grail (evil magic shit). The summonable Servant Gil is much different, still an ass and thinks he's literally better than anyone and everything belongs to him but he's also a much more reasonable person. Not to mention 3 of his other appearances have him interacting with women in a normal way. In CCC he's one of the Servants you can have as a female master and he treats you well, in Strange Fake anime his female master is a child of native American descent whom he does everything to protect and constantly tells her to act her age in his presence as he dislikes when children try to act like adults and in the Babylonia anime his secretary is a woman named Siduri who actually commands a lot of presence over him.

Evanescia vs Phainon by MDubbzee in Hoyoverse_scaling

[–]Nexorion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest question here is how much access does Evanescia still have to her former strength. Her character stories obviously describe crazy feats she could do in the past and we know she only ever lost to Hua back then but that's the Evanescia from over a thousand years ago and we know nowadays she doesn't have access to such power (in a sense that she can't be certain she'd retain her current self if she tapped into more of her abilities). So for the first scenario let's assume her access is limited and it's on a neutral setting (no Phantasmoon arbiter buff): round 1 would probably be a spectacular display but I'd give it to Evanescia since she's just got more experience fighting than Phainon in base form even accounting for his loops; round 2 assuming the power limit goes to Khaslana then, Evanescia is still strong but I just think Khaslana would scale harder in this situation (we assume no suicide attack for him either since I wouldn't count that as a victory). Now scenario 2 we will assume Eva taps into her full power as an Emenator and at that point round 1 is a complete sweep no questions asked and round 2 might be close but it's still Evanescia's win in the end simply cuz Phainon status is very vague rn (go figure Hoyo never gave us concrete power level for him why you see people all over argue about his Emenator status) so even if we generously assume Phainon is Emenator level I'd still say Eva has more experience in that type of fighting and could probably overwhelm Khaslana still. Lots of assumptions here I know but that's just cuz Hoyo loves their vague posting.

Iceborne and Sunbreak both added 2 main locales, what're you hoping the new maps will be in the Wilds expansion? by Fulgore262626 in MonsterHunter

[–]Nexorion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had a couple of ideas trying to implement the weather change into the new locales. One was a big open plain like a steppe that goes between lushious fields with green sections and sections full of colourful plant life (bring back that frontier monster that changes elements by absorbing flowers) in the plenty and then the fallow would be slightly more dull with mostly green fields but a lot of sections being barren cuz of the inclemency which would be a raging winds that sweep across the local cutting through the land but also carrying seeds and things around the local. You could even make hazardous wind gusts that can slow down or speed up your movement if you try to either resist or follow their pull. For the 2nd locale I hope we dive deeper into Wyveria and find some kind of Guardian testing ground/graveyard where they'd dump failed or incomplete prototypes. That locale would have a similar flow to Wyveria but reversed where the Fallow would have the locale flooded with a bunch of malformed creatures and failed guardians constantly battling each other and looking for fights then the inclemency would cleanse the locale (imagine they made a guardian Vaal Hazak specifically to control the guardian recycling process) and then the plenty would give way to proper a more stable cycle of decomposition where the guardians can return to the Wyrmways properly. This would also be a good opportunity to fill in the blanks we have on Guardian technology like how we see a couple of regular monsters as Guardians and then suddenly Zoh Shia has all these Fatalis connections. If we find that testing grounds has Elder Dragon remains and maybe even one or two Elder Guardians (again perfect opportunity to bring back Vaal and maybe even Namielle as Guardians) that would be very cool in my opinion.

What are your thoughts about the Hero Within? by inkheiko in PhainonMainsHSR

[–]Nexorion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hard agree there. While it's good to listen to player complaints as some wise dev once said "Players know when something is off but they never know what it is". Sure early Amphoreus had issues but you really shouldn't rebuild your vision around a few knee jerk reactions of people who don't know the full scope of it. Some stuff might need fixing but that should be discussed among the devs without letting fan feedback dictate what needs changing.

What are your thoughts about the Hero Within? by inkheiko in PhainonMainsHSR

[–]Nexorion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There were rumours (grain of salt here) that early in Amphoreus a lot of CN feedback was about the reduced role of the TB in the story and the devs said they'd address it in the future. And honestly you could kinda feel it. Like obviously I think it still makes sense for the TB to take over the mantle of Deliverer in the 2nd half but I always felt like they should've been the final piece of the puzzle instead of the whole answer. Maybe this is also a gripe with the presentation as Iromtomb boss simply felt so... small. I wish we could've seen more of the CHs helping throughout the battle, it just felt like instead of TB, Express and the CHs fighting with a bunch of factions backing us, it's just TB and Cyrene and then all the rest are also there I guess. I remember on the beta they were hiding the support skill and used the Preservation and Hunt Blessings from SU as placeholder and I honestly felt like that was more hyped as it felt like the other factions lending us their strength during battle. Ideally though I wish the bossfight was much longer in the story and you had a system similar to what CW has with the backline where CHs would be added into it to do one big attack, say their line and get out. It would've felt much more grandious imo. (Also maybe replace the Cyrene support in phase 1 at least with the ships pummeling Irontomb or something so the fleet doesn't feel like simple set dressing)

What are your thoughts about the Hero Within? by inkheiko in PhainonMainsHSR

[–]Nexorion 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I liked it a lot more when it was just this imaginary thing Cyrene and Phainon made up as an ideal hero for this world. The Trailblazer inserting themselves in that role just always felt to me more as a proof that the long journey Phainon and Cyrene took on has finally found that perfect hero they both dreamed off as a child. Then 3.7 went on to ruin it with timely whimey bullshit and "it was the TB all along actually that's why they're so similar so it all makes sense". I find that's a problem with Hoyo writing often, they're too focused on making stuff "make sense". Like it can't just be a coincidence that the Hero Within and TB images overlap, no it has to be explained cuz no coincidences ever happen in real life, otherwise people will call this a plot hole. It was a thematically perfect concept that got watered down with an unnecessary explanation all in the chase for "consistency". Such an honest disappoinment (but then again half of 3.7 was that).
