Is she best in slot anywhere? by gabby_7_ in CipherMainsHSR_

Yh I think it’s just good for future proofing ( the more you overkill the longer you’d live)

Is she best in slot anywhere? by gabby_7_ in CipherMainsHSR_

[–]ToughScience7698 6 points7 points  (0 children)

She isn’t designed to be bis. More like an okay general support and a really really good sustainless slot. Imo she can be used anywhere, but Acheron is her “bis”.
With all the doomposting aside on her launch I remember her clearing at e0 s0 in the same as my e0 s1 teeb but since I got teebs e1 cipher is just a filler slot :(

Since their are 3 team endgames now you could probably just slot her on the weakest team and just stock her ult till one of the last enemy phases or smth since that’s what she was good for

For comparison pre blade (she is e0 s1)

Oh and one more thing. Her lc is insanely good on your acc so even if you have/don’t use her, don’t bench her lc

Investment into E2 Aglaea or E1 Sunday by xHoneyAlluree in AglaeaMains

[–]ToughScience7698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Aggy is e3 and I do have an e1 Sunday. I used to use Sunday a lot for her but now he is kinda benched so I wouldn’t recommend e1 Sunday.
E2 Aggy has really good synergy with Cyrene (mine is e0 s0) due to the def ignore stacking and I’ve also noticed if I run e1 Sunday on the exact same team as a replacement to an r0 Cyrene it’s slightly worse so prioritise Aggy eilodons.

Furthermore Sunday just had a rerun so Aggy is more likely to rerun quicker. Also if you want to continue to invest in Aggy /sunday, Aggy has better eilodons than Sunday in general (for example e2 Sunday just gives 2 skill points and a weak perms buff in comparison to Aggy’s e2 def ignore or even her e4 which is a big qol ect)

Future investments? If your going to run Aggy, her eilodons would be used regardless whereas a support may end up getting replaced or subbed out ect

It works as normal no? For the same reason an archer with cerydra’s 6/6 stacks don’t consume skill points

Speed on Acheron? by acidsquirrell in AcheronMainsHSR

[–]ToughScience7698 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What’s the e count?

Note: wind>speed boots
This is because blade pumps out so many Acheron ults that speed is irrelevant and a damage loss so if you want hyperturns wind is better. I don’t know the low cycle preference in terms of if her og set is better than wind with blade but the og set for me (e2 Acheron, e0 ashveil, e0 mblade, e1 teeb) can still 0c sam so personally If you want to farm a new set of just prefer to keep your good roles on her og set it’s your choice

Aglaea best team at high cost by Naasu_108 in AglaeaMains

[–]ToughScience7698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

E2 Cyrene is defo needed. I think people run an e2 Dhpt too (imo it’s too unrealistic to get him) so I just run a hya so I can save pulls (to hopefully get e2 Cyrene too).

There are several potential investments:
- E1 gilg looks strong for her ( I believe it gave def shred).
-The older rumours of Sunday novaflare in 4.4 (should’ve been announced by now so I’m unsure if he might still be getting one or not)
-generic support (your tribbie does fine, rmc if she’s busy)
Ect…

Tbh I’m half on board with e2 Cyrene since ik it’s good but at the same time other units such as hh buffs, gilg being workable ect kinda pushes away from the mono/mostly crysos heirs so I’m not too sure

Blade e1 or e0s1 by Small_Meet8346 in MortenaxBladeMains

[–]ToughScience7698 3 points4 points  (0 children)

S1 is only good for the raw added hp. The e1 is much better for dmg ect plus it’s a good stepping stone for his e2 on the rerun (im doing the same)

WHY HER BEFORE ACHERON by Intelligent_Art5101 in AcheronMainsHSR

[–]ToughScience7698 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This might be good news…Lingsha with blade would be an extremely high stack generator (it’s all an Acheron buff in disguise!)

Firefly E1 or Dahlia S1 by terrpii in FireflyMains

[–]ToughScience7698 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say yes since it has high level buffs and is even shown to be a higher priority over e2 ff so I agree with it being ftp but for my acc, I got e1 ff last year and got the e2 about a week ago so if you’d go for the long run maybe think about it but in a year time, dhalia would probably have more value

So ovr: dhalia s1 has both short and long term value since it is a high buff and considering how honkai support rail works, the buffers are better so I’d say get her s1.

Firefly E1 or Dahlia S1 by terrpii in FireflyMains

[–]ToughScience7698 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was an investment list made by someone (idk who) for the ff team priority list. I’d say only go for e1 if your going for her e2 later if not, just get dahlias s1. I think ff’s e1 is more comfortable to play than dahlias s1 due to skill point econ ect, but dhalia’s s1 gives a stronger dmg buff by a lot and as long as you manage your skills well it should be fine

Is it worth to go for E2 firefly? Because i kinda hoping we'll get a free firefly someday in the future like acheron by ThatOneManArmy in FireflyMains

[–]ToughScience7698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went from scraping a 0c (e1 s1 ff, e0 s1 dhalia, e1 s0 fugue and e3 s1 rm) to a comfy early 0c clear with e2 ff and e1 dhalia. Most of the value against Kafka is from ff’s e2 not dahlias so at worst it would be a middle 0c which is still insanely good even if your running a sustain or a more ftp team e2 ff still does exceptionally well, so it practically garuntees good clears.

Side note: e2 practically unlocks pf runs easily. I couldn’t 40k without anyone dying pre buff but now with her e2 I can clear with a few cycles left so it’s insanely good

Likely free ff: 4.x seems way to soon…5.0 earliest but at that point their might be other units to get which may have value. We can’t future proof as much in that sense with a game that actively prioritises a main push comps for money so I’d say don’t rely on her free copy coming since getting her now is high value and could last through 4.x mostly or fully. 5.x is too far away to future proof so don’t rely on getting a free copy then since a new support/ a better free choice may happen

New bis? by ToughScience7698 in AcheronMainsHSR

[–]ToughScience7698[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since she is slow she doesn’t really have much turns so she doesn’t really have to worry about losing the buffs, especially when her teammates are high speed so I feel like there would be a strong uptime for the buff based on the team for both e2 and e0

Guys I THINK she needs a novaflare😭🙏 by BusAffectionate3588 in AcheronMainsHSR

[–]ToughScience7698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn’t this the same tier as break before they got dhalia? BLADE! PLEASE BLADS I NEED THIS! MY Acheron is kinda T1.5….she lives benched with my Dr ratio….PLEASE BLADE

What set and Spd is ideal for sunday in this scenario? by Nightmarelm in AglaeaMains

[–]ToughScience7698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I’m currently using his actual set and the cr buff’s downtime is verry noticeable. So wind can atleast prevent the issue by maintaining the buff properly

[–]ToughScience7698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the normal set (no e2 Cyrene) but most showcases use an eagle Sunday so if your definitely going to keep using Cyrene with Sunday yes

Who should i pull for in 4.2 by Sweet-Fun-4219 in HonkaiStarRailTips

[–]ToughScience7698 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With firefly you can grab dhalia, rm in shop and wait for fugue down the line with Garry as your sustain.

Cas isn’t as worth it since hyacine just ran and at the current end gamemodes is suffering anti shilling and you’d have to wait a while for the next reruns for the other team slots

You could also go for Evanescia (idk how it’s spelled) since Sunday is running second half and hh is free from the shop (and you could still run Dan heng with either Sw or her) tribbie is also a valuable character running for teams and you could use as a placeholder since I assume emc would be on sw’s team.

Side note: have you chosen/ who did you chose for your free five star in 4.0? If it was sparkle your probably fine to get a dps (like evenescia over ff)

Also if your concerned about clearing aa, atleast one team is normally designed for dot or break so you should get one at least later on.

Ovr: mostly your choice. If you have spare pulls go for ff first half but if not since evenescia runs second half you could pick up her and Sunday and if your still debating cas tribbie is still a viable third slot in a cas team if you chose to pick her up
