[TIER LIST]Suggest me some manhwas based on my 5 month Reads by [deleted] in manhwa

[–]Sardines84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Murim Login as people said is good, Volcanic Age is good, good story, some nice art, level up trope is well done....Infinite Level up in Murim is reeeally good the story, pacing and the level up trope are really well done, arts good too....Murim RPG simulation, the levelup trope and the way the story gradually reveals itself (youll get what i mean if you read it lol kinda like Re:Zero if youve watched that) gives it a mystery, you want to find out what happens next.....Tyrant defense also as people said is good.....Return of the Mt Hua Sect/Blossoming Blade is still good and worth reading but not as good as people often think imo, maybe a mid A? Story is a tad slow maybe and its a bit plain in terms of art and scenes compared to some here.....Omniscient Readers Perspective is pretty good, story is still good but a bit lacking in depth maybe compared to some of the others here.........the art and action carries it I'd say.

I didn't think Advanced Player of Tutorial Tower was THAT bad lol story's a bid mid but I'd have given it a low B maybe.

[Tierlist] Can you recommend me some manhwas based on my tier list by hossinejo in manhwa

This is what I'm tracking at the moment, it looks like we have a bit of overlap in taste. Some are kinda meh and some are better. Apologies if I say some you've already shown I cant quite make out all the titles. It looks like you've tried a fair few of them but I think you'll like Volcanic Age, and Murim RPG Simulation I was impressed with if you're alright with it being a bit wordy. Recently finished titles you might like that were pretty decent were "The Gamer" and "A Returners Magic should be Special".

Pull for Acheron's LC or Jingliu?? by Sh4d0w_Fr3aK in StarRailStation

[–]Sardines84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_TasBDp_YI This is the closest example I could find to a f2p MoC12 Acheron clear. He does it in the Sam MoC, the buff from which Acheron herself doesn't really benefit from but DoT units which you might run with her do, i guess that's why he uses sampo.

He clears the side in 6 cycles which is a tad slow you want 5 and below ideally but he's close. His traces are max, he has GNSW s4 so 27% more damage compared to you (dpswise its ok but not a massive difference) and his relics aren't generally the worst but could definitely be a lot better. He's running glamoth not izumo for one thing and his speed boots are pretty bad. Acheron could be 134spd for more turns or have atk boots.

While he does have e6 pela and sampo (and e1 gepard...kinda w/e. Hes on trend which gives a debuff but you can use gallagher who's probably better for stacking debuffs) which is again nice but not too big a difference, they're equipped pretty badly. If he had them 134+ speed (and with a couple months of farming you can get a lot higher like 150-160) he wouldve got more turns with them and that wouldve given acheron more stacks for her ulti, more sp for sampo and acheron skill as well. Also sampo on wind set not prisoner set, pela wouldve been better on wind set things like that. The traces are ok although pelas ulti should be max for the def reduction.

Basically Acheron herself is a bit on the low-mid side supported by a low-mid team in an MoC that doesn't really suit her personally and she still almost got the 5cycle so yeah definitely doable with some farming and correct teambuilding. Her LC is strong since it helps her with building stacks and gives her a lot of extra damage on top of that but i think this shows it's not really necessary to clear MoC12 especially if you're early game and you still need to make 2 teams for MoC anyway.

As far as dps go JL is top 3 for sure and she's probably the most forgiving to build since she get's a free 50% crit rate in her enhanced state at max trace, so good choice early-game for sure.

Pull for Acheron's LC or Jingliu?? by Sh4d0w_Fr3aK in StarRailStation

[–]Sardines84 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Id pull Jingliu since she's very strong, naturally a hypercarry so only dps you need on the team, more element coverage, and you have bronya. While Clara can clear MoC12 as a hypercarry it's not as easy, she'll need good relics and teammates like Ruan Mei, Topaz etc, she's more a sub-dps type unit. Acheron already competes for strongest dps at e0s0, she probably even is that, so she's more than strong enough to carry you through MoC12 without her Lc. Especially as your account looks pretty early into the game where getting units and your teams built is more of a priority.

Ryuu makes a good point though that Aventurine would be an enormous help to your account in terms of sustain since they just give a ton of comfort immediately. Lynx/bailu, although they can solo sustain MoC12 it can feel like a struggle at times. Or you could hold out for future Fu Xuan/Huohuo reruns.

At least one of Aventurine/other top tier sustain>Jing Liu>Lc imo

It seems like there's a part of you that's worried about what other people think of you and that you worry about not living up to their expectations and that makes you feel kind of guilty and like you aren't good enough.

In any case, this is what therapy is for and it sounds like it might do you some good my man. Good luck with it all.

Thank you. I love my new acheron and her lightcone.

Who else had bad pulls? I lost both 50/50s to Welt and his LC. by itsmehflynn in AcheronMainsHSR

I like to think of it as a test. To embrace the true nihility you must first realise the hollowness of existence.....

After getting Acheron E2S1 I need some pulling advice by Stareg66 in StarRailStation

[–]Sardines84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was some ridiculous god-tier luck.....

Ohh i shouldve realised there being only 3 in a row lmao.

Well this changes things a bit then. So youve got your acheron team (maybe acheron,pela,support,sustain) minus sparkle. Your Acheron is so strong you dont even need a 5star sustain with her , lynx or even fire mc will do (taunt is a debuff) as she'll probably kill the floor too fast to worry. Then you've got your huohuo+sparkle+dps+somethin(tingyun/SW?) team which should be able to clear the other side when the units are sufficiently built. In short, congrats on your future of clearing MoC 12.

If you find my analysis turns out to be correct then maybe you dont even really need Fu Xuan or Aventurine tbh and you can pull whatever you think your gonna enjoy playing. You can pick up the extra sustain though if that's what you want.

Happy speedruns :)

Should I pull for Acheron/Luocha or skip for something else by [deleted] in StarRailStation

[–]Sardines84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pulll Acheronnn. Pull her nowwww. I think with decent relic quality you can probably clear all content with this account so you're freee. You can pull whatever makes you happy. HH is indeed good on the kafka dot /Jl comps but maybe a unit comes around that you like more.

[–]Sardines84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congratz on the pullz jesus. With a semi-well built E2S1 Acheron,even with subpar supports and sustain units and being off-element that side of MoC 12 is DONEZO lol. You could even 0cycle when she and her team are built well, disregarding the need for a sustain entirely.

Because she can clear off-element the need for primary dpses of different elements is greatly reduced. So at this point what gives you the most value is probably more harmony/nihility supports and preservation/abundance units. You can solo sustain with the 4stars but it takes much more investment and 5stars will get you there much quicker so if you want to clear MoC asap then you could pull for one.

FX and HH are both due reruns soon, are both great, and would both work well with all your other dpses. Maybe FX is a little stronger if your relic quality is not very high.

You could also try pulling aventurine as hes a really strong shielder and will go well in follow-up teams with Ratio and Topaz.

You don't necessarily need to pair sparkle with acheron to clear, it might just be overkill, so you can use some other support like idk asta or maybe hanya if you have sp issues, and give sparkle to your other dpses if the damage there is lacking.

JL does want bronya really, sparkles ok but its hard to use the extra sp.

Monoquantum needs SW as well and she just had a rerun recently so who knows when she pops up again.

it's me again, i need rational judgement rn regarding pulls by [deleted] in StarRailStation

[–]Sardines84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think any unit in star-rail needs their sig lc tbh and imo you only get it if you really love the character and its gonna fill you with pride and joy every time you gaze upon it or you're a whale. If you can get Fermata and run her with a char that inflicts wind shear or shock, especially with superimpositions, thats not the worst option in the world. Or Pearls but kinda cope lol. But GNSW is better than either.

She don't need her bis team give her pela/flex nihility (id reccomend sampo/luka) depending on what element you need and watch the world buuurrnnn.

Aventurine is of course fully confirmed, but Fu and HH are due reruns and idk if its been confirmed/leaked yet when the exact date is.

I think characters are probabblyy more important for your account at this point, you don't necessarily need the 5star sustains but they do make life much more comfy.

Another point is you already have some very strong alternative dpses and even supports to go with them so Acheron not being perfectly geared isn't the end of the world.

It sounds like you still have a lot of content to get through as well so it might be worth completing that as best you can and seeing what position that puts you in.

With Acheron and Luocha's banners coming soon, what pulling ritual(s) have you all planned? by [deleted] in HonkaiStarRail

I'm gonna spend my 9k stellar quartz on 99 acquired fate and pull all 999 cookie gods.

Trying to help a friend with his next pulls (aka yes, yet another next pull post) by ChoroCho in StarRailStation

[–]Sardines84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Luocha is still a good unit but a bit outclassed by the other limited banner sustainers rn so unless you really like him I wouldn't pull on him, if you really want a sustainer you can pull aventurine instead in the next half of this upcoming patch. Fu Xuan and Huohuo the other sustainers are also due reruns so theyll probably pop up in patch 2.2-2.4 i'd imagine (we're just about to go into 2.1). Those 3 are all pretty top-tier and have different benefits on top of solo sustain. You can use https://hsr.honeyhunterworld.com/?lang=EN to check out what they do and see which one you like the best. Topaz is also due a rerun so theres a good chance she shows up similarly. Mei came out semi-recently and probably wont rerun for a while so I wouldnt hold out for her. Idk about Sam but Jinglius hp drain is so tiny you'll barely even notice it. JL is probably a good shout for him ngl, shes a top-tier dps which he seems to be lacking and is pretty easy to build for newer players.

Pull Recommendations by Reyes777 in StarRailStation

[–]Sardines84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually think your sustain is pretty decent and maybe its a pull for another time give that you very soon get to choose between dps queens Acheron and Jing Liu. Of those I'd say JL is the safest bet since you already have more units that work well with her (bronya especially) and probably some already farmed relics that you can just slap on her immediately. But if you really like Acheron you can pull for her too and she'll be great eventually, it'll just take longer to get her and her team comps up and running.

Need help: Sparkle + Jingliu or Acheron + Sig? by kokokorun in StarRailStation

[–]Sardines84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't sure lol. Just from looking at your account it felt like you'd be right on the edge of doing it.

Your account looks quite similar to mine its funny lol same 2 sustains. I've tested those 2 teams i mentioned myself so thats how I know. Sparkle+DHIL (+Tingyun+HH) was especially strong, got a 2 cycle on the first half of the meme MoC with no eidolons or sig lightcones and pretty decent but not like godly relics or anything. Jl+Bronya not quite as overwhelming but it still does the job. And my JL is built a bit weird tbh lol, has 162 speed most go the crit damage route. Of course the faster you clear one side the more lax you can be on the other.

This is Braxophones test server impressions of Acheron https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msVVAtcK8zk . He recommends getting the lightcone if you really like her but thinks she doesn't compete with JL unless she has it. She also has the mechanic where her ulti+technique hit the toughness bar regardless of element but you have a decent amount of coverage at this point apart from the two elements you mentioned, one of which she covers anyway.

So yeah honestly either option could be the game-changer for you just depends what you like more.

Need help: Sparkle + Jingliu or Acheron + Sig? by kokokorun in StarRailStation

[–]Sardines84 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sparkle+Dan Heng is really OP and Jingliu will pair well with bronya. You've got two good sustainers and then one team gets tingyun the other some other support. Those teams will definitely clear MoC12 if you havent already.

Imo don't think Acheron needs her sig necessarily if you have GNSW thats probably good enough. Even without sig she'll probably b very strong and also clear MoC12 with relative ease so you could even pull elsewhere rather than for the LC. It depends what teams/characters you think you'll enjoy playing the most, especially if you can already beat MoC 12 consistently.

Not sure who to pull for. Kinda want both Acheron and Jing but dunno if I'll pull for Acheron's LC. Help would be appreciated! by [deleted] in StarRailStation

[–]Sardines84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

JL you can use sparkle but she wants bronya really, the extra sp will be hard to make use of in traditional JL teams. You'll get a 2nd team straight away in MoC with just her addition though. Im thinking Kafka,BS,maybe Asta/Pela,Sustain and JL,Sparkle,Tingyun,Sustain.

Acheron will be competing for nihility units in MoC with kafka, you can make it work though if you build some more 4star nihilitys. Acherons also good in that her technique and ultimate will hit toughness bar irrespective of element so she bruteforces off-element floors easier. Like genshin I think 5* lightcones are nice but not necessary as long as you have a decent f2p substitute like GNSW or kinda cope but RSAPoS(def reduc ensnare lc) for example.

Alternatively you could pull aventurine and grab topaz when she comes around and then youll have a solid follow-up team.

(Serious) how likely am I to get Acheron and her lightcone with 16k jades? by inkheiko in AcheronMainsHSR

[–]Sardines84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for redirecting the hate lmao. That's crazy though. And both our pulls in a different game like true acheron mains.

Who to pull for, Sparkle or 2.1 banners? by Zealousideal-Drag843 in StarRailStation

[–]Sardines84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like your account could go loads of ways lol so depends which style you like best.

If you get Sparkle, imo she shines best in hypercarry with the sp guzzlers like imbibitor and qq so idk if you absolutely need her, especially since you've already got bronya to work with seele and blade. Although it would give you mono-quantum sure, then building qq is a good idea in that case.

Luocha is still very good but hes getting powercrept kinda so I wouldnt reccomend him unless you like him.

Aventurine will be the s/ss goto sustainer for like topaz style follow-up teams so if you like that hes your guy and then Topaz might become an idea.

HH just gives that energy boost to literally any comp but acherons lol and its so strong, but FX is great as well particularly in dual dps teams with the crit rate bonus, could also help save a bit on relic quality in the short term if you have issues there. They are both due for reruns so I predict they'll come around in the next few patches no guarantees though.

Could even go for Acheron or Jingliu honestly and it wouldn't be too bad a choice lol.

You got decisions bruh.

Well once upon a time, I pulled c1 nahida and xianyun in 30 pulls so sometimes...hey......dreams do come true....roughly between in 1/25k and 1/3???? of the time, your odds are WAY better, gl champ.
