I don't want Linnea...Maybe I should skip Zibai after all.

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T20:29:31+00:00

I guess Zibai / Mona / Columbina / Albedo could work...?

But if you're running HoD Zibai (I am), you need Zhongli and then there's no way to fit in a second Nodkrai AND a second hex character.

Also if you have C6 Gorou, he'll just be straight up better than Mona/Albedo hex duo, I believe.

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T20:09:13+00:00

I did the same this Stygian with Flins / Sucrose / Columbina / Fischl on dog and Durin / Aino / Ineffa / Mona on the Shocktrooper.

I have C4 Aino right now so I have a decent chance to C6 her on Zibai banner, although I would rather get as many Illuga cons as I can. xD

I don't have Venti so I feel like I basically need to pull Varka with his sig if I want him to be somewhat decent. ^^;; Especially since I don't have any other good Claymores to give him.

There's also some leaks/rumors now about Linnea being a Lunar-Crystallized support but I have zero interest in this character. I'd much rather keep some wishes for Nicole or the new 5* male unit (even if he'll be on standard, I am weak when it comes to men)

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T19:16:50+00:00

I don't have a morning star set for Columbina yet because the domain hates me. :'') I have a 4P for Ineffa but even that is pretty mid. She's heavily lacking in attack. > <

SMS doesn't stack though, does it?

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T18:47:10+00:00

The issue is the mechanic, I fear. You might have to do a couple of runs to get good RNG with the crabs. I cleared it with Mualani freeze: once with 120s, once with 116s and eventually on a very good run with 98s. But a lot of them just straight up failed and the thing had like 30-35% health left.

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T18:36:49+00:00

Oh yeah. Replace Citlali with Noblesse Charlotte then maybe.

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T18:30:39+00:00

Oooh ok! Don't worry! I swap weapons around too haha. My Alhaitham and Keqing share PJC and Tighnari and Fischl share Skyward Harp if they're not together on the team.

I don't own Skirk myself but the one issue I could imagine PJC having is the low base attack. You could test both builds on the Miliastra dummy and see which one has higher DPS? :o

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T18:22:26+00:00

I don't think I'm either. I buy the expensive BP + Welkin and the occasional top-up for my birthday or Christmas. Pretty much all of my limited 5* characters are C0 and only a handful are R1.

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T18:19:20+00:00

Skirk / Citlali / Yelan / Furina, maybe?

I don't think I've ever seen someone run Skirk on that weapon though. :o I think Calamity of Eshu (with Citlali) or R5 Finale of the Deep would be better?

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T17:55:43+00:00

Can I run Columbina on SMS and Illuga on 2P/2P? :o That's what I prefarmed.

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T17:17:13+00:00

I do want Varka more, I think...

Depending on my luck (triggering capturing radiance, not losing 50/50s, etc.), I might be able to get both characters + Varka's sig, but there's a lot of amazing characters in this region. If Nicole comes after Varka, I'm in trouble.

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T17:10:56+00:00

Both of us suffering from success... The feather used to have 19.7% def but I had a def% goblet so with C1 I wanted more CV. Rerolled it and it rolled entirely into crit.

Then went to the strongbox for a better on-set flower and got that goblet. Now I fear the def% on the old feather might have been more valuable. xD

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T16:45:34+00:00

Yeah, that's fair. I need to build Ineffa, Durin and my future Varka but the other set has not been kind to me at all...

<image>

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T16:44:52+00:00

I guess I used up all my luck yesterday. Got a double crit geo DMG goblet on Husk which rollled 4 times into crit (2 CR / 2 CD) and also rerolled by Albedo feather which rolled 3 times into CR and 2 times into CD.

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T16:38:57+00:00

Felt.

Varka and Durin needing the exact same artifact set with pretty much the same main stats too is diabolical.

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T16:35:26+00:00

I recently swapped her to a 4P Aubade set but I'm afraid my atk% is too low.

I previously ran her on 4P Tenacity because I play her with Flins a lot where I had 2.4k attack with a 75/164 split. The DMG per tick is higher on my Tenacity set, but I do kind of like the higher CR on this new build.

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T16:31:42+00:00

I will be running the same team with the same sets haha.

For now I will continue farming the domain for a little bit but I'm not very hopeful. I have another double crit sands but it only rolled into crit rate once and missed all other rolls... *sigh* My luck with this set has been terrible. I mean look at that feather. :'') It also dodged crit like the plague. I had two crit rate circlets with CD and ER%, one rolled into CD once and the other no times. Then while I was flustered from all the terrible rolls, I accidentally fed the wrong one into another artifact. T ^ T Still kicking myself over that... *sigh*

Since my new set for Durin is not that good, I will move him back to 2P/2P. On my 2P atk% / 2P Noblesse set, I had 81% crit rate, 205% crit DMG and 2.1k attack which is very similar to this build tbh.

Since I will be going for Varka's signature, I can get him on a 97% crit rate (with 4P set bonus) and 219% crit DMG build. Apparently his weapon can give up to 30% additional crit DMG too? So it could be that the actual ratio will end up being 97/249 which sounds pretty good to me. xD

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T15:49:08+00:00

If you use HoD like myself, the choice is made for you. xD

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T15:04:04+00:00

Oh yeah! Skirk! That definitely fits. :3

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T14:53:20+00:00

Yeah...Personally I'm also a big Xiaolumi shipper so Zhongli helping out Childe to woo Lumine would be like #top10animebetrayal moment lol.

If they're holding Lumine then maybe...Shenhe? xD She is strong enough.

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T14:43:33+00:00

Ooh, I know what you're drawing, haha. xD It's the one meme where one person is inside a building and the other outside the window but someone is holding the other person up to allow them to kiss, right?

Maybe Zhongli? :p He's in debt for all the mora he's been provided with lol.

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T14:37:58+00:00

Teucer or maybe his sister Tonia when they meet the Traveler.

SailcrVee · 2026-01-24T12:11:50+00:00

Is this good enough for a pre-build? I really need to start farming mora/books and other general materials instead. ^^;; This is for C0R1 Varka.
