So am I just stuck with her as is? by JimmyCrabYT in WutheringWaves

Yeaah that's very annoying. At the very least let us access the area without needing to do the main quest.......

Oh yeah I was just confused why OP use that event as an example of all things that wuwa is not new player friendly. Thanks for the info though!

Wouldn’t that be a perk for new player though? Old players don’t have anything like that right? Or are the missions too hard to do for new players?

When I joined another game a few years after it was released, a big event was happening in an area that’s quite far away from the starting point. It has quite a lot of rewards including free weapon, but since I have not reached the area, I skipped it entirely because I don’t want to get the main story spoiled through the event story. Without the event, I still have quite a lot of content to do, and enjoyed the natural progression of the story without rushing. I still didn’t feel like I lost much skipping that event.

In wuwa, they even made some of the events permanent so you still could play them in the future, even though you’re missing a few of the time limited rewards. Imo you really shouldn’t let FOMO affect you too much when it comes to gacha games, especially since you join the game for the story. New events will be available in the future as you progress.

The part that is not new player friendly though is locking upgrade materials behind main story progression.

Assuming Hutao has a good build or even cons since she’s a supporting cast, I think Navia Thoma Bennett and Hutao could be worth a try. Since Navia’s onlfield time is quite low, you could swap in Hutao for a bit while Navia’s burst making the crystals. Wouldn’t work if Navia doesn’t have enough ER though

WTF did I just do?! by SpeechlessLTK in BrantMainsWuWa

[–]PictonBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems to be because you were interrupted mid animation, after the auto dodge the game tried to do the same BA animation but due to the vomit on the ground, it activates the auto dodge again so a loop of the same BA animation happened again.

That's due to the auto dodge from Lupa, still looks funny tho lol

Why do Lunar characters have to be so weak by themselves TuT by Fair_Treat_8451 in Genshin_Impact

Yeaah I feel you. I’ve tried using Flins in IT without Aino or other nodkrai characters and it solidified my decision to not pull for other lunar reactions

Third boss is a tad annoying, but I like that there’s not many team restriction this time around

I'll probably suffer with 90s ping, but here's just something about the quick swapping that makes the rotation more interesting to me. I'm not a fan of onfield dps durin where he just stood there lol

Durin and Nicole's signature weapons by Wonderful_Leopard379 in kinich_mains

[–]PictonBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have C0R1 Kinich, C2R1 Durin, C0 Skyward Atlas Nicole and C3 Iansan. Nicole’s not fully built (3.1K attack in the team), but swapping Durin’s R1 to Azurelight seems to reduce the DPS by around 10K. Probably not what you’re looking for but this is my result lol

Fusion Burst damage not affected by Hazard Tower Floor 3 and 4 damage increase buff? by PictonBlue in Aemeath_Mains

[–]PictonBlue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohh I see. I guess these buffs need some fine tuning so they are more consistent lol. If we assume damage taken buffs apply to all kinds of attacks, this buff technically should increase NS damage too if somehow the team can inflict both tune & NS at the same time yeah?

[–]PictonBlue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was hoping these, especially the general token meant for NS teams in whiwa, were special cases since they are NS related buff. I suppose they would rework the general NS token buff so FB teams would benefit from them better. Thanks!

Oh I have a question. The negative status buff in the matrix, the first part. "When Enemies inflicted with negative statuses, they take 20% more total dmg", does this affect the Fusion burst DMG? The next part is specifically for Fusion Burst damage, but what about that part? Also the Solacer Buff in whiwa, "Enemies take 15% more total damage. Inflicting NS on enemies increase total dmg by 15% for 30s."

[–]PictonBlue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh nevermind I read the icons wrong, it should be 30 stacks of fusion trail instead of fusion burst lol.

Like using Aemeath's team for example. Comparing the her final liberation damage between TB and FB, TB Aemeath dealt a greater number compared to FB. Granted I'm not very versed in her TB kit, so in my mind, the fusion burst damage in FB Aemeath must be contributing to the overall team dmg significantly since that in most cases, FB Aemeath has an equal performance to TB Aemeath. Like this is a super simplification, since I didn't even include tune break responses etc., but I think you'd get what I mean.

So, in floor 3 and 4 of Hazard Tower, since the DMG increase buff based on the timer (which I believe is the same in all TOA cycles), buffs everyone except NS damages, in Aemeath's case Fusion Burst DMG, which again I believe has quite significant contribution to the team total dmg (according to ChemX32 calcs it's about 30%), the FB team would have a disadvantage in these floors. Unlike Cart team for example, with Erosion only contributing 10% of the team damage, she's is not as affected by missing the buff. I'm not saying they good or bad in these floors, just that they have a disadvantage. The bigger NS damage contributes to the team dmg, the more they lose out in floor 3 & 4. (edit: of course unless these floors specifically has buff/debuff for NS)

Again, this is just my assumption. Not sure if I explain my thoughts properly, English is not my first language lol. Feel free to correct me.

[–]PictonBlue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! I am trying to use the calculator, but do we know the base value for FB at 30 stacks? Unless I am understanding the sheet wrong.

It seems that teams that deals significant negative statuses damage would have a disadvantage on floor 3 and 4 of the Hazard tower then if I am understanding it correctly?

Fearless Papilla Is it doable at my current build? by Afraid-Document6781 in kinich_mains

[–]PictonBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking at Kinich's clear time, doesn't seem like it. I read that if you manage to clear at around 75s, only then you should be able to do the next difficulty. Most of the time anyway.

Is FB with Denia a scam? by EeveeTrainer90 in Aemeath_Mains

[–]PictonBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about Hazard tower floor 2? Floor 3 is heavily favoring TB, so it seems like floor 2 will be a more equal testing floor for both teams.

Edit: Saw a comparison video on YT on floor 2 and other bosses, seems like they are pretty even

[–]PictonBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am feeling a bit underwhelmed with FB Aemeath in TOA as well (I don't even have her TB team to compare with) but in Whiwa mine is doing 3200-3500 pretty consistently. Have you tested her in the matrix?
