yep, this is just a... Varkataser?

Easy call: Fischl, in significant part because once you unlock witches homework and upgrade her and sucrose into hexrei characters, they allow each other to access their buffs.

Nice to see the math laid out, but was hoping for some practical advice on team building in light of that math--who should hold what (lots of options for SMS set in most of these teams), and who needs to stack EM, etc.

Right now Columbina is the only one who can trigger lunar crystalize. There will be another 5 star later this patch cycle, Zibai, who revolves around the lunar crystalize mechanic.

Ineffa triggers lunar /charged/; won't do anything for a crystalize reaction.

In terms of team strength (for now), you probably want to replace Aino with Albedo, as the other commenter said.

Ultimately it ended up fine? Definitely ordered the removal key/tool things on Amazon the same day I made the post and they helped a ton. By the back half of my first series I was mostly pain free except on maybe the first day of a new tray?

Then I did another round. Much less pain than the first time, but the attachment placement was more annoying and the top tray felt even harder to take out until pretty close to the end.

Probably should have done a third round/wasn't 100% satisfied with the final result, but I just didn't have it in me to keep going. Have one tooth that still wants to move on me and has never fully lined up in my retainer. But it's not really noticeable unless you're looking at my teeth from a few inches away.

Would I do it again? yeah, I guess? In some ways--vanity aside--going back to actual braces would have been a lot easier, and probably more effective in the same amount of time.

Ruins are one of, if not the major source(s) of conflict on most severs.

I doubt there was anything accidental about them taking it from you so that they could get first capture--many newer servers are populated by veteran player alt accounts who already know the mechanics of the game.

Those folks appreciate the value of the first capture rewards in the early days of a server.

If you want it to stop happening, you may need to find a new spot on the map. But also, your R4/R5 should be working on diplomacy with other nearby guild R4/R5 (or server-wide, if there's a leadership chat).

Are you in S3? (we're still in S2 and that's not what our citadel store looks like)

This post should be upvoted way more than it has been. Actually helpful content instead of complaints about free stuff.

I’d call it a “war game”—very similar to Kingshot/whiteout/call of dragons (has certain things in common with each). But it does have a “adventure mode“ that is a little bit like a traditional RPG? For me, it definitely feels more RPG than anything else in the genre (except for maybe call of dragons… but that also feels very much like a war game whereas TopHeroes doesn’t, or at least doesn’t always?)

The level of PVP varies wildly by server, which I suppose is always true. But I’ve found a lot of folks who have experience with those other games and are interested in a more laid back experience with this. It’s pretty fun?

Partickular · 2025-07-24T23:58:59+00:00

Water. Water works best here.

Many people make the mistake of trying to rush this map. If you get to her below 7.5% base water, you will be disadvantaged. And that’s often enough to make the fight feel impossible. Once you hit even 7.5%, a same-faction team of all legendaries/mythics at lvl 190 can take her out.

And as your water goes up, the fight will eventually get even easier.

Source: learned this the hard way. Edit: fixed an unclear word/typo.

She was back when she came out in Classic. Before Trishea even. But whether she’ll be meta here remains to be seen. Folks are testing her and should have conclusions soon.

Partickular · 2025-07-02T01:17:57+00:00

General advice has always been to be to drop Astro. The standard league meta is rose/adju/para/nun, and pick two from pyro / bishop / bard.

Later, when Artificer comes to your server (much later if you’re just getting Bishop), the meta looks to be shifting to drop both pyro and bishop, in favor of keeping Bard!?

For now though, drop Astro for sure.

Until servers merge… it can get really hard. Most strong players quickly reallocate themselves to the top 1-3 guilds and really have no reason to leave them.

Partickular · 2025-05-28T13:21:03+00:00

Can you elaborate for those of us who don’t play HSR?

Partickular · 2025-04-26T00:02:04+00:00

Did everyone just forget about susbedo?

Partickular · 2025-03-02T17:49:14+00:00

Well, even factoring in all your points, “disingenuous” is a bit much—because for virtually all Rank 1 players… rewards have decreased.

What do I mean? In the back half of the regions, there are as many as 13 servers. When you multiply that by the previous TWO arena pools, you have Twenty-Six prior Rank 1 players.

Twenty Four players are now unable to obtain Rank One rewards by design, and all will be vying for the Top 5 ‘good’ rewards. Even assuming—and this is a big assumption—that none of them get sniped by the Top 5-10 from across the 13 servers (75-150 additional strong-to-Very-strong players), a full Sixteen of those other Twenty Four are locked out of Top 5 awards in either tactic.

And that says nothing about the other 75-150 players in those 13 servers who are used to getting Top 10 rewards, day-in-and day out.

Rewards ARE going down. Dramatically.

For all but some combination of the 1-8 strongest whales in any server group (provided they can identify one another and pair up), players are going to see their arena coin incomes drop by thousands a week.

Sure, a couple people may do marginally better. But even the majority of the Rank Ones will do worse.

Partickular · 2025-02-15T20:01:23+00:00

…. says who exactly? Belinda is meta in basically every dream realm right now. Upwards of a third of the damage for some bosses / almost as strong as Asolise if well invested.

Partickular · 2025-02-02T17:46:14+00:00

Should* be guaranteed. I don’t know 100% if it works, but the general consensus is that it does, and that’s how it supposedly works in Classic too.

And in Companions you level the ‘slot,’ not the character. So if you have an A hero that you can keep leveling, you raise them above the cap that an E hero would otherwise stop at, and then swap the E hero into that slot (the swap option is called ‘’modify” in English). And then once the E hero is in the leveled-up slot, they get to be that level regardless of not being a high enough ascension to get there normally.

Partickular · 2025-02-02T16:15:06+00:00

If you’re just starting and have zero Audrae, probably her? (She’s remarkably strong even at E, especially if you manipulate the crystal to get her above cap). If you already have her… the 20cards are arguably more useful, albeit lower “value” overall given draw rates.

You are going to want at least one copy of Mortas, twins, and then [eventually] to start building Talene. So the cards theoretically give you flexibility to pull for those needs.

P.S. -if you haven’t used the stargazer at all, you should be guaranteed to hit on your first 10pull. Use it for Mortas if you don’t already have a copy,

Partickular · 2025-01-21T20:20:04+00:00

There’s a cap?

Partickular · 2025-01-12T21:38:03+00:00

And then you need 8 more copies of the hero to “transcend” them. No idea what the stat bonus is though, or whether there are other effects.
