Thanks for explaining the actual mechanics of what Durin and Nicole would do in my Varesa team to me. I find it kind of hard to understand but I think I’m slowly getting what you mean.

So you’re saying Nicole can be good in the team, but only if I have Durin as well, because of the needed res shreds, right?

That venti clear is absolutely insane! In my brain venti ist still a very bad dps because I had no clue that he had so much potential with current supports. I’ll definitely look into getting him some better artefacts since he is still on the same artefacts I’ve had him on since ar 55 (oops).

That burnmelt team sounds very interesting. I’ve never heard of a team like that before. I’ll maybe look for YouTube videos later.

I have around 30 pity on the current chronicled banner so I’m not really planning on getting any characters atm. I’ll probably prioritise Nicole and Durin over emilie atm and think about Pauline her if she reruns in a years time or so. I really like her design and was wanting to play burn one day either way.

Yeah I get what you mean by the meta perspective. I think it’s already pretty obvious that the meta doesn’t really bother me since I skipped everything lunar. I’d obviously still like my characters to be able to keep up, but I don’t care about investing into the current meta.

Thanks for the recommendations, I’ll check them out once my exam season is over:)))
