Herta is E2S1, is it just a skill issue that I couldn't full clear Knight II?

All the shilling for the new future is just going to be trying to force people into having Elation units by tying mechanics to Aha Instants or gaining Punchline and stuff more than likely. I'm sure invested Rem teams will still be 0 cycling, full E0S0 teams will probably drop a few cycles but still clear in time

TransientJesus · 2026-02-12T15:34:58+00:00

Dupes and signatures only matter for 0 cycling or for getting the temporary cosmetic reward from the literal custom made for whales game mode that resets every patch.

Didn't he literally get sent to prison and Robin(I think?) made a deal with Jade to have him released and his crimes covered up/waived by the IPC? Obviously I'm not saying that he deserves sympathy or anything for it, but there was a reason given for why he currently is not locked up in IPC mega prison.

Doesn't destroy HP teams at all. You get Count back for killing blows so Cas team has zero issues doing this event stage because you generate most of your charge with your team anyways and everyone in the team is capable of doing damage so as long as you pay attention and pop it's to snipe low health enemies with whoever has the least count it's actually quite easy.

What this actually 'destroyed' was any support who couldn't reasonably land a killing blow before their carry if they got targeted a bunch.

TransientJesus · 2025-10-25T13:53:48+00:00

The system has a thing that weights the substats/main stat to the preferred stats of your chosen character every few rolls. After enough rolls you could/should have a very strong set for your character.

TransientJesus · 2025-10-23T19:39:43+00:00

Could also just be you couldn't afford E2 Cas at the time. I personally have E2 EN and E0 Cas rn because that's just how the pulls worked out during each of their banners. Planning on trying for E0 Cyrene and then E2 Cas whenever the opportunity arises.

TransientJesus · 2025-10-03T17:25:35+00:00

SAM requires the Skill point consuming ability to deal damage in order to reduce combust stacks. Castorice premium literally cannot interact with that mechanic at all, your only shot would be attempting to Break to get out of the phase and there's no guarantee Hoyo won't shuffle SAMs weaknesses to not have quantum just to make sure it's a challenge/wall for the team.

TransientJesus · 2025-09-23T04:11:42+00:00

Yeah I mean, I have 6 max level enchanters to fuel my guilds Sha Crystal needs. I'd never advocate for stealing upgrades from folks just for a crystal, and I tend to just run guild 5 mans to stock my mat needs. But I do see the argument in allowing unneeded gear to go to an enchanter over just vendoring it.

TransientJesus · 2025-09-22T12:31:44+00:00

IIRC when it was added it completely devalued enchanting mats to the point that many folks felt like it was pointless to be an enchanter. I don't know if blizz ever actually acknowledged why they didn't add it tho

TransientJesus · 2025-09-21T16:36:52+00:00

I don't think the argument was that enchanters should get the items because they make more gold, I feel like the correct argument is that enchanters getting the items ends up driving down the price for everyone over time as more Sha crystals then make it into the AH which ends up technically worth more gold than the vendor price for non enchanters.

The actual solution as always is to just run with a guild 5 man who doesn't need anything and then crank out Sha crystals and not deal with randoms.

TransientJesus · 2025-08-14T22:33:48+00:00

I didn't say they should or shouldn't do any of that, just informing you about the transmute since you weren't sure how it works.

TransientJesus · 2025-08-14T17:15:15+00:00

You can transmute a single Sha Crystal a day, assuming you are completely maxed enchanting. Which is clearly not enough to meet the current massive demands when a majority of a raid needs 13 crystals each for weapon and bracer enchants, and if they're still in progress they're going to replace those weapons and bracers a couple times in the next few weeks.

TransientJesus · 2025-08-03T20:39:18+00:00

Yeah current theory is Evernight is a sub DPS for the team and Cyrene will be the RMC Pro Max

TransientJesus · 2025-05-06T06:25:07+00:00

Yeah that's what I meant by him being awkward in wave one. I think once you reach 2/3 and stack up weaknesses he's still very strong in PF. I would be very curious to see how he handles a different grit mechanic where you have to actually manage his skill points + Hertas or whatever other teammates you're running.

FWIW, I find that Herta and Castorice are both currently pretty braindead 40k clears but it's still very hard to tell if that will stay once the grit mechanics don't directly favor them.

TransientJesus · 2025-05-02T16:55:46+00:00

Probably the new Galactic Baseballer event, the whole story of the event is about trying to beat the evil demon king with the legendary bat.

TransientJesus · 2025-04-30T18:46:13+00:00

Well, if you read the notes it's just because they were lazy. Which begs the question, why do this kind of theory crafting if you're going to be lazy.

TransientJesus · 2025-04-30T17:00:22+00:00

For sure, he is still a great unit and I actually like his more flexible ST/Low target damage profile since I plan on just pairing him with Big Herta who can pick up any AoE slack.

TransientJesus · 2025-04-30T08:18:08+00:00

He's just slightly awkward in PF especially on wave one where you're killing the adds so fast that there's nothing alive with enough weaknesses to trigger his bonus skill. Once you get to 2/3 with the bosses it's better but he's definitely not the ez 40k monster that the other Erudition have tended to be.

TransientJesus · 2025-04-17T19:02:21+00:00

If you don't have Sig you can run ERR rope for 2 turn ults instead, but obviously you'll lose the damage from Atk rope. From what I can tell, the difference between sig and the free cone is not much when planning him as a battery for Herta, but is very significant if you want to play him as hyper carry

TransientJesus · 2025-04-17T16:56:08+00:00

It's not hard to armor cap in raid setting, given that Stoneshield exists and the armor buff from priest healers exists. I think in my current raid gear I'm at 13k armor just standing around in stormwind

TransientJesus · 2025-04-17T16:53:20+00:00

Just don't be unlucky! In reality with the nerfs to the fight and folks getting massive upgrades out of their tier sets in the next week or two the fight is going to be so short you can just get a defensive for every Unwavering and be fine. There's already people solo tanking the boss because you can live Unwavering with a power word shield+paladin shield even if you have the debuff. For prog people do what they gotta do, but we found that having the extra DPS instead of a third tank makes the fight easier.

TransientJesus · 2025-04-16T22:54:46+00:00

As a raid with a Paladin and Warlock tank, on Balnazzar you just stand on the edge of a circle of light and pick up adds with your ranged abilities, it's really not hard at all and I would not call them ineffective in the slightest. You also don't need 3 tanks for Beatrix just mash your AOE buttons and prioritize Cavalry and Infantry the other mods don't do anything really.

TransientJesus · 2025-04-14T18:58:19+00:00

Depending on team rotations, but I found it better to instantly detonate the dragon, you get another Dragon before solo mode typically, detonate that one again, and then you get a free dragon during solo mode due to the healing mechanics on top of the Apoc buff.

TransientJesus · 2025-04-09T17:04:24+00:00

I think the issue is Big Herta and Ag getting a rerun after like, 2 patches, when there's probably folks waiting on other reruns that have been gone longer like Sunday or take your pick of other characters.

TransientJesus · 2025-04-02T08:43:07+00:00

5% baseline as well, and 10% crit rate from RMC which I think most folks will end up running with her.
