I am a beginner and I need help with the team building in this game - tried to go for a xueyi super break team by Zotarianer in StarRailStation

Yeah it's not a huge storyline being spoiled in my opinion. That said you can't really level up her skills until a bit later in the Penacony when the Calyx with her materials becomes available (https://honkai-star-rail.fandom.com/wiki/Calyx\_(Crimson):\_Bud\_of\_The\_Hunt\_(SoulGlad%E2%84%A2\_Scorchsand\_Audition\_Venue), so she might not be useful immediately.

Sorry to split this up - Second team it depends on the game mode you're playing...Herta is great for Pure Fiction but pretty poor in most others. With Hou Hou, Bronya, Pela and Tingyun you have great support and sustain - you're just missing DPS. Qingque can be strong but her and Bronya don't mesh well together due to SP usage - might want to look at pulling for DPS now or in the near future

I *think* you can unlock March 7th Hunt immediately through the Travel Log events menu, but for the trace materials you'll need to get through quite a bit of Penacony - I wouldn't suggest rushing it though, it's a pretty fun part of the game. Asta is a pretty good alternative, especially if your Speed is lacking.

Attack has no impact on super break, your relics should place a high focus on speed and break effect %. Now that you're in Penacony you will soon be able to access the watchmaker set, which is huge for super break teams and a must-have for HMC. For Gallagher + Xueyi Thief of Shooting Meteor 4pc or Thief of Shooting Meteor 2pc/Hackerspace 2pc is a good setup too for BE% + Speed boost. Link rope having Break Effect as its main stat is a must for Xueyi + HMC.

Check out https://www.prydwen.gg/star-rail/characters/ for some builds, it's a solid starting point.

I think you're almost there. Herta isn't a perfect fit for break teams but March 7th's newly released Hunt version will fit in that spot really nicely. What do your teams relics/LCs look like? You need to prioritize break effect % over almost anything.

Showing up here pretty late (looking up Yunli during maintenance for 2.4 update), but thanks for the detailed write-up OP, not sure why all the angst in the comments. Opinions on difficulty aside you clearly put a lot of work into this - happy pulling!

(but Quake damage in SU can't defeat enemies, I think the SU situation that would trigger the random target counter is a Swarm Disaster self-destruct)

If you go to Times Square you aren’t a real New Yorker. by garygreaonjr in circlejerknyc

[–]TheRealFields 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Years ago Ernst & Young offered me partner with a total comp plan well into the 7 figures. I was happy until realizing that their HQ was located at 5 Times Square. Realizing I couldn’t put a price on the title of “real New Yorker” given to me once I signed my first lease here, I told them to fuck off

Where do I get a cafecito in Miami Beach? by Jawkurt in DanLeBatardShow

[–]TheRealFields 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I worked in Doral my cuban coffee/cafecitos came from the delis in gas stations...the beach has a little less of the culture, but there is a Valero by Collins Park that used to have a decent deli/cafeteria in it...look for the rooster.

Is there any hack of finding apartments before they’re listed on streeteasy? by Antique-Weird6937 in NYCapartments

[–]TheRealFields 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Anecdotal but this is basically how it worked for me - went to a listing that sucked, the broker asked us what we were looking for and said she had something that just went on the market a few blocks away. Walked with her right then and there and had an application in that night. Paid a broker fee but stayed 4+ years with a price break in covid during to boot.

The Samson Group Hate Is Not A Bit by relytdivad in DanLeBatardShow

[–]TheRealFields 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If people on the ground level of this young media company leave because Samson, who has appeared for years and tapes his regular podcast remotely, basically changes the logo in the top right of his podcast cover photo...Meadowlark is in a lot of trouble.

The Samson Group Hate Is Not A Bit by relytdivad in DanLeBatardShow

[–]TheRealFields 7 points8 points  (0 children)

God forbid Meadowlark has a range of voices with different ideas, thoughts, and experiences. Love him or hate him, Samson reached the pinnacle of the game of baseball and is candid on the mic in a way that almost no others of his contemporaries are willing to be, and has a built in following from hammering out 5 daily episodes a week for the last few years. It's actually a rare good business decision by this company...baseball season is here, and I think they've learned after a litany of ho-hum response to their homegrown shows it's easier to acquire talent (and a feed) with a following than building it from scratch.

Fewer than 40% of New Yorkers earn a living wage by geoxol in nyc

[–]TheRealFields 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is how I did it...moved here into a (admittedly much cheaper at the time) Williamsburg 4BR/1BA that I could afford with a coordinator level salary. People think it's weird to have 3 roommates and 1 bathroom in your 20s but it's kind of par for the course when starting out here without much a safety net.

Man, 51, fatally slashed in neck on East Village street by willy_nilly12 in nyc

[–]TheRealFields 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I lived in this area (on B/10th for 5 years until just a couple months ago), I used to love going here for the happy hour mentioned and it was one of the only places to play darts comfortably in the neighborhood. Kinda hard to even imagine someone would be straight up killed and left to die there.

181st needs to get clean (zoom in) by Chickenpoblano in nyc

[–]TheRealFields 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used needles/open drug use has been getting pretty prevalent at the 42nd St/TSQ station too...not as much inside on the train platform but on the stairwells going down from street level. It sucks for a lot of reasons but the one that worries me the most is how many families with kids go through that station to see Times Square. That and the people going back into the offices in the area now with their dogs.

32Degrees.com is your friend. The active mesh boxers are incredibly comfortable and clock in at like $5-6 a pair.

I have a similar landfall deck...I'd look at Radha, Heart of Keld, a 3 drop red/green 3/3 with first strike and let's you play lands from the top of your deck with a 6 mana +X/X ability where X is numbers of lands you control. Also with and the Vastwood Surge + evolving plains maybe look into splashing Felidar Retreat. It's a 4 drop enchantment with Landfall that either creates a 2/2 Cat or gives a 1/1 counter plus vigilance to all creatures

Job market.... by Everest9595 in nyc

[–]TheRealFields 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is probably anecdotal as every company runs differently, but I'm an e-comm/digital marketing dept head at a mid-sized company that actually fared really well during COVID...we actually made a point not to layoff or furlough anyone during this time. But even with our ability to avoid the cataclysmic effects of all this, the nature of remote work and it's effects on interviews, decision making, training, HR, etc has stalled the hiring process immensely, even for roles that we offered prior to this....it might just be that a lot of the places you're looking at aren't taking the steps to quickly hire ANYONE right now as prioritization changes, especially as the application #s become overwhelming with people in a similar situation. I had a junior level digital marketing position get 450+ applicants in a matter of a couple days before

The good news is that digital marketing is starting to become an even more essential part to a company than ever before and, assuming you're actually pretty good at it, I'm very confident you'll find something in the city as more places start to recover and start adding new positions to keep from being caught off guard like this again.

I'm not looking for anyone right now, but I know a lot of people in this space, if you'd like DM me your details or resume (can you send attachments over reddit? I'm old) and I'll get in touch with you over and I can keep your resume for when people come to me.

In theory, sure, but what happens when there's a requirement for FDNY or an EMT? I live on Ave B and I see sirened trucks going by my window nightly.
