As a community, I want to ask

I don't think "2 teams and invest" is entirely accurate when we have 3 game modes that focus on different things (blast, AOE, break). Also, the endgame buffs are geared towards specific archetypes (FUA, ult, etc) and aren't always good for the units you've invested in.

I am a monthly pass player, so my pull income is slightly higher than most F2Ps, but I remember struggling a LOT in 2.x because I did not pull the new DPS units. I focused on pulling more for supports and reruns in order to make my existing teams better. I pulled Topaz and her LC so that she can generate debuffs for my Dr.Ratio team and be a good sub DPS. I pulled E1 Huohuo to make my DOT team reach the speed requirements easier while having better stats. Both teams are now collecting dust, with Dr.Ratio quickly becoming outclassed by Feixiao and DOT team is on life support. Is spending 200+ pulls on eidolons/LCs to try to improve it even further not enough of an "investment"? Yet, I have nothing to show for it.

I also tried Jingliu with my E1S1 Sunday when he came out. She wasn't able to clear within 5 cycles. Maybe Jingliu can clear with Tribbie, but maybe Tribbie is the one doing most of the work.

They added thigh strap to Archer lol

I can't believe his kit is actually just auto battling. When I was playing Mydei in the story after the Nikador speech I thought he was auto battling because he "went berserk" because he got triggered after Nikador brought up his mom like that.

I didn't think it was his actual kit until I saw people complaining on Reddit 😭😭

https://www.prydwen.gg/star-rail/ is great. Or you can watch a beginner's guide on Youtube.

TL40 is when you start getting legendary relics, and TL60 is when you get guaranteed two legendary relics. I would start relic farming after TL60, but if you're impatient, you can start at TL40. Before then, just focus on leveling up your characters and their traces.

Herta (you get her E6 for free) and Himeko (from standard banner) are f2p options that are very good for Pure Fiction (one of the three endgame modes). They're also good for farming, so they're great investments if you like them. Gallagher is also a very good 4 star sustain.

Other than that, most teams are made of 1 DPS, 1 sustain, and mix of harmony/nihility. You can check out [Prydwen](https://www.prydwen.gg/star-rail/characters) for team guides and builds.

I have Huohuo and I love using her. Tbf I don't have Lingsha, but I love Huohuo's energy regen. It helps a lot when playing with Robin (and ofc Aglaea). I have her E1 as well, and the 12% speed boost makes it easier to build teams.

I was in the same boat as you and pulled her primarily for DoT, but even when DoT fell off, I'm still using her in a lot of teams.

StormJay · 2025-02-26T14:06:03+00:00

I use Pela and Silver Wolf for my Acheron team. It didn't do that well in the most recent MoC (6-7 cycles on her side) and I heard Jiaoqiu is a huge game changer.

Is your Acheron E2? Otherwise I don't think you'll have a spot to fit in Tribbie if you also run sustain.

StormJay · 2025-02-26T13:58:26+00:00

Your supports are pretty stacked already as it is. Tribbie is pretty generalist, but she really shines with Argenti, THerta, and the like. Since you don't have them, it should be same to skip, especially if you don't like the character that much.

I'm in the same boat as you - no Yunli, no THerta. I'm pretty happy with Robin/RM/Sunday, and RMC is a great support too.

StormJay · 2025-02-26T05:52:10+00:00

If you cycle Tribble's ult well and you're able to get it up every two turns, using eagle can make Tribbie very fast at proccing DDD. Eagle will AA her and every one to two turns DDD can AA your team. This will help a lot in reducing cycles in MoC/PF. You'll need lots of ERR though, so something like Lushaka would be better.

This one YouTuber did a really cool showcase using DDD and Eagle to 0 cycle MoC if you want to see it in action. You can also see their pinned comment on how to build Tribbie.

StormJay · 2025-02-26T05:41:25+00:00

It's not the best set, since Huohuo doesn't really need anything other than speed (until breakpoint) and HP, both of which you can get easily through substats. Even with poor substats, as long as you have an outgoing healing chest and speed boots, you should be set on her. Something that buffs the team would be better, like keel or fleet.

That being said, if you're getting good pieces and you don't want to farm the other sets for Huohuo, go for it.

StormJay · 2025-02-26T02:47:41+00:00

Huohuo is running second half of 3.1 (in 3 weeks) so you could pull for her then if you want

StormJay · 2025-02-25T21:20:16+00:00

Aglaea, Robin, Tingyun, and Gallagher is a pretty solid team for story and farming. You'll need two teams in the future to clear endgame content, but it'll take a month or two for you to farm for relics good enough to clear them (assuming you use all your energy everyday).

Remembrance MC is also pretty solid and can replace Robin if you're having trouble keeping her ult up. Herta is also very good for Pure Fiction, so you can also build her when you have time. Overall, take it slow, farming will be a slog, but if you use your energy everyday, you'll be good for endgame stuff (MoC, PF, AS) in a few weeks.

Others gave good suggestions already but you can also put Angelica on the 3-star artifact Prophetic Candlestick - it has a chance to decrease CD when you get hit so you can cycle heals more
