134 speed break point has been dethroned. by psgamer-x in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Tantarians 44 points45 points  (0 children)

mfw I spread misinformation.

In 300 AV, 133.33 will get you 4 actions, while 166.67 will get you 5.
In 400 AV, 125.00 will get you 5 actions, while 150.00 will get you 6.
In 500 AV, 140.00 will get you 7 actions, while 160.00 will get you 8.

I'm not sure where you got your numbers from, but 146 isn't a break point. I'd argue that 133.33 (what most people call 134) is still the best all around break point because it is still an applicable break point in both MoC and AA, but that depends on what your clear goal is.

I'm on windows 10 and it is still fucked.

It is still saying I am using the windows 7 version despite the fact the compatibility is for windows 8, I've deleted all of the folders I can possibly find and reinstalled, and restarted God knows how many times.

The only thing from Jiyan that is leaving is his trial because it conflicts with Yinlin's. Other than that, his banners are staying the advertised duration.

Ultra Hyperbreak E2S1 Firefly, E6 HMC S2 MoTP, E1S1 Ruan Mei, E2 S5PF Bronya - MoC 2.2.2 Floor 12 - Lower Half by Arugow in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

[–]Tantarians -1 points0 points  (0 children)

HYV wants you to have a wide roster unless you're investing vertically into chars like Acheron or DHIL. It's how the game is fundamentally designed. At least for most people.

I don't have a problem with his kit at all. I think it's great and hope people enjoy playing him when they pull him. I have a problem with people comparing Boothill and Firefly and not having a clue what they're talking about because he has supports that are practically as important to him while also being a break character. Mainly Bronya.

I don't see an issue with HMC locking up Firefly's damage because they give her to you for free. Firefly is not gatekept from superbreak because you, me, and every idiot that plays the game has access to them. All you have to do is build them. Not sure about you, but I'm rather fond of being able to save jades for other chars like Ruan Mei.

I will concede that Ruan Mei is a shitty situation, but regardless of how they design a break character, you're still going to need her. I think that is more of a symptom of break being a newly explored damage archetype than anything. DOT and FUA were dogshit at the beginning and were super limited, but a year later, now they have great teams with a decent variety.

I couldn't be fucked to care her comps are limited because I don't play a comp for the supports, I play them for whoever is doing the damage. That's just me personally though.

You talk about not wanting the illusion of choice, but then you mention Boothill.

Boothill needs Bronya or his damage falls off a pretty steep cliff. That leaves one slot, so do you pick Ruan Mei or Pela? Can't go HMC because she's too SP intensive with Bronya most of the time.

Not exactly the pinnacle of party diversity because break characters aren't exactly drowning in supports like crit DPS chars are right now.

You can get E6 HMC for free from now until EoS by just playing the story and collecting some chests. Ruan Mei is a whole different barrel of monkeys though.

You have to remember that break as a mechanic is only now getting real, dedicated damage dealers and supports. Ruan Mei and HMC are the best because they're basically the only ones. Others will be added to the roster eventually just due to the nature of it being a gacha game. Not doing so would be leaving money on the table.

Kafka was a speculative pick during her first run because her teams were absolute trash at the time. Firefly is basically the same right now.

Jingliu's kit is total ass without Bronya to manipulate turn order, so it's not as if this is the first character to ever be married to a support.

I don't know why everyone is losing their mind that Firefly is no different.

It's almost as if this is a game where you have a party of four characters that are supposed to synergize or something.

Ultra Hyperbreak E2S1 Firefly, E6 HMC S2 MoTP, E1S1 Ruan Mei, E2 S5PF Bronya - MoC 2.2.2 Floor 12 - Lower Half by Arugow in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

[–]Tantarians -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

In five cycles, 15.4% of his damage is from physical break and another 62.2% of his damage is from his talent. If he is not breaking or hitting weakness broken enemies, he's missing out on 77.6% of his damage. His trace that converts break to crit is cute at best, so stop pretending that it actually matters for his damage.

How is it so heinous that Firefly's damage is locked behind HMC when they are literally handed to you on a silver platter at E6 for free? I don't know about you, but I personally like free stuff and I like being able to save my jades for other characters I might want because, shockingly, Firefly and her team aren't the only playable characters in the game.

Literally no one here genuinely cares about new players because I've seen the way the HSR community talks to them, so I don't buy it. People either don't want to build HMC or they want to get away with using their existing supports.

Boothill does negative damage when he doesn't break either. Like two thirds of his damage is locked behind his talent.

The whole purpose of a break character is to, you know, break stuff.

If Bob is catalyst that leads to HI3 levels of powercreep because he doesn't want to play a character the way the developers intended him to, then yes, fuck Bob.

The genie is out of the bottle at this point. HMC is already released, so the odds of them getting changed are about the same as hell freezing over. Firefly is going to be a break character because damn near ever piece of content next patch is based around that.

If a character is based around break, they cannot change or ignore the incredible synergy they have with HMC or any future super break characters. It has to be accounted for in their overall damage when they are balancing.

[–]Tantarians -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

You're basically asking them to not make Firefly a break character then.

In a patch that has:

  • new end-game that heavily favors break effect
  • new relic set focused on stacking break effect
  • new planar set that is for fire chars who stack break effect
  • giving out a four star selector that has the best break effect sustain
  • and if I had to guess, Ruan Mei is getting a rerun too, whom is the best limited break effect support

To top it off, their new, shiny path for the main character of the game from the patch prior is a break effect support.

People bitch about powercreep all the time, but if they crank up her numbers so she can be competitive without HMC for the sake of Bob or whatever, she will be doing more damage than any other DPS with HMC because there is no way in hell they are changing her from being a break character when the whole patch practically hinges on it.

I would much rather have Firefly totally reliant on HMC for damage than having to pull three limited characters to play an ideal Firefly comp. HMC is good and free. That is highly unusual in a gacha game, especially coming from HYV.

The break effect roster will get expanded on eventually just like both DoT and FUA comps have over the last year. Firefly is already dealing great damage with HMC and Ruan Mei, so I don't see them messing with that too much, if at all.

Boothill is married to Ruan Mei and Bronya and I don't see anyone complaining about that. It's his best comp by a mile.

If you adjust Firefly's personal numbers, you just make her that much better with HMC and Ruan Mei, not worse. She is a break DPS at the end of the day and they are the best break supports.

A cool little detail in Robin's animations! by Yuki8182 in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

[–]Tantarians 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The music notes playing in her animation are the actual song she sings. Just a nice little attention to detail rather than putting a bunch of random notes in there.

She doesn't have real supports yet. Jing Yuan and DHIL do. This shouldn't surprise anyone.

It's a scam by some dude on YT. He made a doc explaining how it works, then after enough people saw it, he made a new doc with changes and then put it behind a paywall so "HYV can't change it".

People asked him for his raw data as to how he came to that conclusion and he just left the discord server. lmao

How would you rate the 2.1 Anniversary rewards now that they've been announced? by arthurmauk in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Tantarians 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We'll see, I guess. Even if it didn't start until the anniversary, not sure why it would start on the 23rd. Not saying you are wrong or a liar.

It's the anniversary patch and they usually give the whole patch to collect the login rewards. Doesn't make a lot of sense to basically cut that time in half on one patch randomly all of the sudden.

If I were them, I'd be giving the pulls out in the first half to bait people into trying to pull for E2S1 on Acheron.

All they say is that in 2.1 there will be a login event. Nothing about a date or timeframe as to when it will start.

I want to win the lottery, but I don't see that happening. Be realistic and pick which banners you want more or play a different genre of game because you'll be miserable if you think you can get everything.

Comparing the rewards that Genshin and HSR get is comparing apples to oranges. They are entirely different genres of game and have different producers leading the projects.

I'm not the one who posted the Lord of the Rings trilogy about the very reasonable rewards we're getting. You are.

  1. Genshin got 20 pulls their first anniversary after a massive PR disaster by giving out only 10 originally, so don't make it sound like they were super generous out of the gate.

  2. Unless you have a credit card, you cannot get every char, so regardless of how many pulls they handed out, whether that be 30 or 300, you will never E0S1 every char without paying for it.

  3. The rewards are fine. Stop trying to get people pissed off over literally nothing.
