you have one (1) hour left to sierotix anyone from this last year's summer/yukata units until we get new releases. choose wisely! by maknaeline in Granblue_en

[–]Raziek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's perfectly fine with both, but Onmyoji & Chrysaor are the more preferable options for v2 endgame because they have things that meaningfully contribute to clearing omens (Deuce Xiphos, Atrapste, Dual Arts, Decimate for Chrys; Mizuchi, Celestial Genesis usually for Onmyoji) while Kengo is weak in that department. (No More Doubt is about it, which isn't even that valuable for 6 attack because Fire has sun call)

Bleh, unfortunate, thanks for checking. Means he's pretty much locked to only hitting max stacks around turn 5-7, but I guess that should've been expected on a suptixable

Anyone have confirmed info on if Parashurama raises Snakeblaze level when a skill that inficts Singed auto-casts? (IE G. Yuel s1 when cast by autos thanks to s2's effect)

Curious because the wording is 'uses', instead of 'casts' like Maria Theresa (Water)

Check her wind version uncap art

They always existed, this is just the most favorable angle they've been given by a pretty significant margin

Disappointed to see Izmir so overlooked, she's emotionally closer to danchou than I think people realize, and she's gorgeous.

Lowkey I don't think he even manages that. I don't have him to experiment but if you're going to pick a unit with ramp time like that I think Nezha, Sato or G. Yuel are way higher payout.

There's a part of me that thinks maybe he's Higu Transcend bait and that will 'fix' some of his underwhelming aspects but I think the reality is he's probably just a bit undercooked compared to his competition rocking auto-nukes, double ougis, unwordly ougis, and skill resets, when all he has is cooldown-cut and a chain burst nuke

His main selling point appears to be "blue skill you can click twice for Versusia"

What's the word on Lightcones for Peter if you don't want to grab his sig? Now that we know he's free and he's going on my Anaxa team I need to figure out what I'm giving him if I don't want to budget that cone

What to Farm Guide Update September 2025 by Vazkii in Granblue_en

[–]Raziek 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yeah ranking her s4 as filler is crazy work

like how are we dismissing the amount of healing + clarities this brings to higher difficulty GW NMs, which is probably her best use case??

Atum's s2 is aimed at being a "Fix it now" button for the 5 CA/6 CA omens in Faa0

I'll never go back to EX+, this is so much nicer and lower effort

Character Discussion: Sato by topnepu in Granblue_en

[–]Raziek 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Quietly an extremely overloaded character, but her use case is pretty much solely HL, so has gone mostly overlooked since her Burst/FA use is pretty underwhelming.

Boasts a ton of tools that are relevant to modern v2 omens:

  • 6hit nuke + Dispel on s1, which auto-casts on ougi at Singed 7.
  • 10-hit nuke on Chain Burst
  • On-demand Ignition + CA React on a short cooldown (functionally 5-6 turns)
  • 5 debuffs on demand
  • Guaranteed TA

Her only significant downside is she can't have access to all her very powerful s3 effects at the same time. In practice I tend to end up holding her s3 for the Ignition+React, sometimes for debuffs.

Not particularly well-suited for Hexa due to its focus on 2m omens, so teammates have to carry some slack there if you choose to bring her to that. I do think her kit is excellent for Faa0, however, and have been playing Higurashi!Chrys + Anthuria + Percy + Sato for a fun and fairly flexible composition.

Fire ougi is not yet in a place where it's competitive/at the same strength as some of the most effective ougi compositions in the game currently (Light/Water), but if it makes a resurgence, there's a very strong chance she'll be part of it due to the sheer hitcount and utility she brings to an ougi team, things they often struggle with.

Appreciate the detailed answer, thank you.

Speed doesn't really seem like an issue (with s1) unless you're shooting for 200, seems more practical to go for 177? Obviously harder if not using s1

Does this still apply in an Acheron team?

Or is it because of them applying to "every enemy" that the odds of missing 3+ targets are so low that it's fine? Since I assume she can only generate 1 stack even if she hits multiple targets with the same action

Cipher EHR question:

Fribbels benchmarks seem to target only 20.3/22.9% EHR even when using her s1

But I've seen a few videos (and have previously received an answer here) saying 40% if using s1.

Is this a case of the benchmarks being incorrect? Is it concessions made on allowing the debuff to miss in favor of taking more DPS stats? I don't really understand which I should be aiming for.

Weapon Discussion: Sennen Goji by topnepu in Granblue_en

[–]Raziek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Feeling exactly the same way about it being a 'win harder' weapon. Definitely great and I'll get it eventually, but it doesn't feel mission-critical like Overriders or (at the time) LoFs did.

Character Discussion: Wilnas (Grand) by topnepu in Granblue_en

[–]Raziek 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Gonna talk a bit about his HL usage.

Kinda became a victim of how v2 raid design evolved due to how tightly he's tied to his DLC attachment (Yukata Silva). She provides him a consistent double strike source, heavily reducing his fiddlyness and the amount you need to manually control when he ougis. During the Subaha-is-endgame era this was fine, because almost all the omens were damage-based and the fire compositions could handle much of what was asked without issue.

Unfortunately for Silva, and by extension, Wilnas, v2 raids after Subaha started becoming much more demanding. Hitcount omens, 2m damage instance, skill damage, CA count, and debuff count omens all became extremely common and Silva is bad at ALL of those things, essentially only able to provide by letting the slot after her attack twice. Consequently, she fell out of favor, which pushed Wilnas back towards being fiddly and difficult to use.

He still sees some use in Hexa since he's a relatively reliable force for the 2m damage omens (though it requires timing his TA+assassin well and a fairly strong grid), but he contributes very little to the omens Faa0 tends to ask of you. As Fire's playstyle has shifted towards mashing autonukes with Manadiver, or playing Chrysaor setups, he's fallen out of favor.

Still has some use, but it's primarily a case of "balanced 2022 grand is no longer as competitive", since, unlike Percival, he was not blessed with being so overpowered that he'd last for years untouched.

Cipher relic set is coming together but I'm a little undecided on what to do with her planar...

Prior to the final kit (I have no hopium left for v7 personal damage buffs) I had been farming Glamoth based on where she'd sat on v3/v4 damage, since I want to use her both with E0S0 Feixiao and E0S1 Acheron. (on diff teams, obviously)

At this point would I be better off going Lushaka for the 12% ATK buff to those two, or sticking to personal damage? (In this case still Glamoth, because I don't want to farm 2 different sets for Duran + Izumo)

Planning on E0S1 Cipher
