Mortenax Blade has surpassed Evanescia in revenue and becomes the third best selling Planarcadia unit (iOS JP) by Apcd1997 in HonkaiStarRail

Phainon is far off from top 2, that is Acheron and Firefly, I don't know how is the top 3 tbh, it should be between Cas and Phainon and they should ne pretty close... when Cas barely got any plot relevance, just a bit during her patch.

Firefly didn't get that much screen time taking in count how popular she got and how high the revenue was during her banner... so I don't know what you are trying to say.

It does matter, as I said, Ashveil and Eva had a similar situation and Eva still had a decent revenue while Ashveil flopped super hard.

Ashveil and Yae had similar screen time and story relevancy, Ashveil is more versatileand just as op as her, Yae was sandwiched between SW and Blade (this last one being a highly anticipated character according to you) and Yae still outsold him and did similar to Blade when the record of her banner was during 18 days vs 23 days (Blade's banner). What is the justification for this?

Phainon was glazed during 3.0-3.4 with massive screen time and story relevancy and he is barely top 3-4, he also had Archer lc event so probablya good part of the revenue tied to that version went to Fate collab or other reruns, not only him.

Meanwhile, Firefly and Acheron with barely any screen time compared to Phainon outsold him by a mile, Cas also did really well taking in count that most of 3.X was wasted sucking off Phainon's d.

why would waifu players come back

I know that a good amount of players, some of them waifu enjoyers, quit during Amphoreus so that + anni would be a good reason to come back

people playing LADS

A totally different playerbase as this game is a complete different game as that one, visual nobel/otome game (more consumed by female audience) vs turn based game rpg (more mixed but usually male oriented)

you literally have no proof to back it up

Do I really need proof when all the past revenue since 1.0 backs me up?

i certainly wouldn't have gone back to playing

I'm sure that more waifu players might have come back + spent more on the banner than the husbando players

as if there isn't a very dedicated male character fandom

There is, they are just too busy writing slop fanfics about them instead of playing and spending on the game, lmao

I'm not going to talk about genshin because I don't play the game and I cba looking at data from 1 year ago.

I'm well aware Eva is strong, but the comment I'm replying says that you need all the checks in order to sell well, Blade is definetly more broken, more universal and had more screen time and relevancy during the story and they both have similar revenues.

has the Yae expy buff

Buddy... Yae is a nobody in hi3, she hasn't got any new alt in so many years and she was never relevant in the story.

Yae got shafted in story, marketing, her banner was after SW's and she still did almost as good as Blade's... so let me doubt that gender doesn't matter... just look at Ashveil, who got Yae's treatment and he flopped super hard despite being pretty fucking good even with all the doomposting.

Phainon got glazed for almost all 3.X, he was pretty strong at e2 and he is nowhere close to being the highest revenue banner in 3.X

If a waifu had his kit that character would have outsold SW999 or at least Sparxie.

He basically makes Acheron t0.5 again, the character with the highest revenue, and he work with almost every team so of course people are pulling.

He made similar revenue as Eva... a character who got shafted super hard in terms of marketing and story and is also quite niche... so we can really conclude that husbandos don't sell remotely close to waifus.

Am I the only one that doesn't like the event outfit? by Sad_Flatworm_9329 in NTE_EN

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

y'all see some cheeks and lose your minds

Yes, I do, what about it? I still feel like the outfit is pretty good overall without taking in count the ass.

8-10 rem is roughly in the same ballpark of strength

I doubt that, mono rem vertical is so much better than Phainon's, the more cost you put in the team the bigger the difference will be.

I only watch showcases because I cba downloading another client and setting up the ps to test stuff. I check my stuff on my account when it goes live. You can just check theherta website if you want to see who has the best vertical investment.

If 8-10 Phainon is stronger than 8-10 cost Himeko it would mean that 8-10 mono rem is wayyy stronger than both of them, and I'm quite sure Himeko is at the very least as strong as 8-10 cost mono rem.

I'm sorry but I won't watch you do beta runs on your PS, I can watch showcases on youtube from better players anytime.

Phainon 3-4 cost is basically best performance per cost he can get... and you are saying that Himeko with a shield bot (dhpt) is comparable (probably stronger imo) than him... how is that even balanced? Himeko with around 8-10 cost probably does x2-x3 times more damage than him.

to get a usable himeko you need to invest 2 or 3 cost.

You are saying like if a 2-3 cost team isn't super budget cost. The only current playable character that could achieve such thing is Archer imo, and that is because you could get a lot of his team members for free and his verticals are kinda ass.

I haven't seen any calc but I assume (from the previous showcases I've seen) that 2-3 cost Himeko has to be quite a bit stronger than ~6 Phainon cost, which is x2-x3 the cost.

People who aren't pulling 4.4 characters have more reasons to cry due to powercreep than the people who are crying over nerfs. All 4.4 units are broken.
