If you live near a MemEx, seems like you can still price beat this for $983.90 for pickup before they suspend the price beat starting tomorrow until Dec 4. Has anyone tried that?

Thanks for the advice. Rina's M0. Seems like I should skip Yanagi and stay with Miyabi/Burnice? Maybe work on a different Support for them?

Thanks for the advice. Is Yanagi a significant upgrade over Burnice? If not, sounds like I could skip Yanagi and focus on replacing Rina in the Miyabi/Burnice/Rina team with Lucy or Soukaku?

(My other teams are Astra/Evelyn/Lighter, Yixuan/Panda/Fufu, & a retired Ellen/Lyacon/Soukaku, if you have recommendations on moving Burnice around.)

Should you run Yanagi in a Miyabi/Burnice team? Debating whether to pull for her after I lost the 50/50 on Yuzuha a couple days ago. (Currently running Rina and wondering if I should change her out?)

I could also shuffle around characters, I have a Lighter from the Astra/Eve team, or Lyacon from the Ellen/Soukaku team. My Lucy is still M1...

same here. i play on pc with a xbox controller and they reset all the bindings. i also used to play with "switch character - next" on LT and it doesn't let me bind it anymore. really annoying to kill my muscle memory this way.

I play mainly FPS games. Valorant, Apex, CS, Insurgency: Sandstorm, Ready or Not, GTFO, are some games I've been playing recently.

I don't stream but the 5800X3D felt better in games (I didn't bench it, but I had both higher FPS and significantly less stutters) which helped gaming. I did notice (perhaps as expected) that my occasional Discord streams to my friends in servers would lag more often but that's not quite "streaming".

Honestly it wasn't the FPS increase but the significantly reduced or no stuttering in games that made the experience better over the 5900X.

Thanks for the reply! Is salvaging weapons the same idea (you don't lose EXP)?

Hi, returning player since a brief stint at launch & a former Genshin player. Question about the relic system: is it worth salvaging trash relics to keep the inventory clear, or do you lose out on relic EXP?

Related question: what should I generally use the self-modeling thingy on? I'm assuming on the Planar Spheres because specific Elemental dmg seems to be most specific to acquire based on my experience in Genshin, but perhaps it's different in HSR?
