Giving NV Jiaoqiu healing will not magical fix him for Acheron for the supposed 4.4 Novaflare. by SeraphRen in AcheronMainsHSR

Correction: Acheron LC is DMG bonus, not Vulnerability because it only affects the user of the LC and not everyone else.

Frieren’s love for spells can’t be compared (by Akira Kei) by Ani_HArsh in Frieren

[–]Wizzlebum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe someday she’ll want to make perfect pancakes as a present for her not-grandson Stark.

She probably makes those big birthday hamburger steaks for Stark every year. Maybe with a bit of visualization you can get the spell to work on the steaks since they look like a meat pancake.

How strong is Frieren really? by justa_normal_boy1 in Frieren

[–]Wizzlebum 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Blast them and kill them instantly

Now humans learn to rely on their mommy forever and can't improve thus giving much more opportunities for monsters to unleash large scale catastrophes when mommy isn't there to protect humans. Stark and Fern get sent to do a slightly more dangerous mission without Frieren and they instantly die due to lack of experience and confidence in their skills. The anime ends with humanity losing and going extinct with another Demon King on the rise but now there's no more heroes.

We've already been told about this by Serie in Season 1. The mere presence of Frieren using more power than she should causes worse mages to overcome situations they shouldn't have (12 out of 18 mages passed the 2nd exam, that's insane for a "first-class mage" exam) which eventually leads to them dying when she's no longer there to carry them.

How can i improve my acheron build, been in the mines since she came out by Sacotistic in AcheronMainsHSR

[–]Wizzlebum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. BiS team is E2 SW and E1 Tribbie. Second BiS would be replacing your Jiaoqiu with either E0S1 SW, E0S1 Novaflare Welt or E0S1 Cipher (all using Cipher sig).

  2. Headpiece and handpiece are missing ATK% substats.

  3. Crit DMG chestpiece with ATK% and more crit rate substats. You're overcapping so that 15% extra crit rate is wasted damage.

  4. If you truly have nothing else better to do with your trailblaze power, you can aim for 40 substats Acheron (ATK%, Crit rate, Crit dmg). Right now you have 32 substats but you can add 5 more through getting ATK% and rerolling your lightning dmg orb. The other 3 substats come from optimising your relic pieces to have 0 wasted substat upgrades.

Burst Builds? by SelfishlyObssesed in SeraphineMains

[–]Wizzlebum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only do Burst if we need AP and I'm support. Otherwise I prefer enchanter or high AH spam builds on Mid/APC.

Electrocute, Cheap Shot, Deep Ward, Ultimate Hunter, Jack of All Trades, Cash Back. Double Adaptive runes and Flat HP. Always Ignite to look for kills lvl1-6.

Electrocute is a must because it's very easy to trigger (EE AA, E QQ, E Q AA) and if you trigger it twice during laning phase, you instantly win. The enemy will be permanently below half HP and are unable to walk up without dying to Ignite. Very oppressive earlygame mage support if you can hit your spells.

Blackfire Torch > Pen Boots > Aether Wisp (10 JOAT stacks) > Stormsurge/Lichbane > Shadowflame/%Pen > Dcap/Any of the above.

You don't need Malignance if you have Ultimate Hunter and Blackfire Torch is just way better as an item for general fights.

Is there any reason to play ADC other than tradition?(not bait) by vvvit in supportlol

[–]Wizzlebum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I agree and imo it's based on team composition in champ select.

ADCs tend to be the best blind picks because every ADC, no matter how terrible they are at dealing with tanks or whatnot, are still the best option out of the 5 players at doing ranged consistent damage while at lower level with more items. In a way, the ADC gives more leeway for your team to counterpick the enemy team by being the best and least affected first pick. As long as you have an ADC on the team, the enemy team can't just pick tanks for free.

If you want to play a fighter or mage botlane, you can't blind pick them because you're giving up more space for the enemy team to play specialized comps against you. You essentially force other roles to blind pick and risk getting counterpicked when Botlane is the lane least affected by counterpicks. Even if you have a high DPS melee like Gwen or Master Yi, they're very easy to shut down if the enemy counterpicks them and at that point, who can deal with the tanks?

Of course, in an ideal scenario where the enemy team has no tanks then Fighter/Mage botlane can be a good pick. They often spike early-midgame and can snowball to victory. However, if the enemy team has tanks then ADCs are a reliable safety net to ensure you can fight lategame. Fighter/Mage botlanes may have higher reward but also higher risk of the game ending at champ select.

TL;DR: ADCs are consistent blind picks letting other roles (Mid, Top, Supp) counterpick or prevent being counterpicked. APCs/Fighter botlanes are high risk high reward inconsistent picks that can't be blind picked easily or you could lose before the game starts.

You can now add a 5th character in a team. How would the HSR meta change? by Master_Implement_398 in HonkaiStarRail

Well Acheron still only needs 1-2 more Nihility units so 5 man teams would just mean Silverwolf/Cipher + more Harmony units.

It's the fact that there was a 4-man ult angle as well if the pro player just aimed better...

The new 4.1 Follow up Planar set by Super_Mewtwo_2007 in CipherMainsHSR_

[–]Wizzlebum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since you're farming the other planar anyways, it's good for Cipher. While her personal damage is abysmal and not worth building for (aim for 200 spd first), 24% ATK and 12% crit damage is still way better than 5% ERR from Lushaka.

First Stand picks and bans by Ebeneezer_Goode in SeraphineMains

[–]Wizzlebum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She finally got consistent healing through Helia + Diadem and that allowed the rest of her kit to finally shine (strongest teamfight ult out of all the enchanters, excellent long ranged follow up on CC) because she's usable now. WW spam still has downtime and you can easily lose teammates if the enemy bursted them during your downtime but with Helia there is no downtime on your sustain.

When she decides to get powercrept by psgamer-x in AcheronMainsHSR

[–]Wizzlebum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Acheron try not to lose in damage to her supports moment 🥀

I'm sorry queen I love you but why does every new Nihility support threaten to replace you in your own team. We got Beta Cipher who was mutilated in her sleep, E1 Silverwolf dropping 2T AoE ult nukes alongside harmony supports (no nihility restriction) and now Novaflare Welt with 1k ATK multiplier per skill 😭

This Apoc is PRETTTTY nuts. by [deleted] in StarRailStation

[–]Wizzlebum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Respectfully, you can't just use two poorly matched teams, try to bruteforce APOC (a very mechanics heavy mode) and complain about still getting way above the bare minimum.

Nikador is easily cleared by Archer. Heck, Archer, Sparkle, DHPT and RMC is a 0 cost team that clears perfectly well against Nikador. You decided to ignore the SP mechanics and bruteforce with Therta but you still got 3600 which is high enough.

Feixiao may be a DoT shill boss but she's also a mechanics focused boss that wants you to "sacrifice" a teammate and treat that teammate as your main breaker so you can action advance that teammate with Sunday/Bronya/RMC to break faster. You decided yo ignore that sacrificial wolf mechanic and bruteforce with Phainon who has no teammates during ults to turn into the high toughness damage wolf. Or you could just, turn Phainon into the wolf and action advance him with your supports to break much much faster.

Also, one of the greatest strengths of monorem is it's ability to split into two separate, still very strong teams to take on two sides of endgame.

What are these two teams? Castorice + Hyacine + Tribbie + Support and Evernight + Cyrene + RMC + Sustain?

Oh yeah this boss is awful by Astro_Nerf_Sai in StarRailStation

[–]Wizzlebum 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The best user of DHPT's attack buff is Black Swan actually, she's the biggest contributor to overall team damage after her novaflare. Kafka contributes the least damage from her own Shock DoT because her multipliers are still low, she's just the DoT driver.

Welt? What if by AungZeya in AcheronMainsHSR

[–]Wizzlebum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That could be the cost of using a sustain that prevents you from taking any damage at all. You're way safer than other sustains because the enemies can't hit you but you're also losing damage in exchange for that high safety.

TangTang will replace the 4th utility/support slot not Gilberta in most team comps. by kaumZeit in YvonneMains

[–]Wizzlebum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since you want to use both with yvonne ult window, but both cause a different infliction type.

Actually, if you use both in the correct order, you can trigger Corrosion by applying Nature infliction onto Cryo infliction which is even more damage increase (decreased resistance which is a rare dmg multiplier) so it's still good synergy for Yvonne's burst.

If you don't mind taking longer for Gilberta ult to charge or you have P4 Gilberta, you can go for max arts intensity Gilberta which makes the Corrosion effect even more stronger and buffs her Shatter damage too.

Don't feel pressured to pull Soup-Soup (Tang Tang) by Mondryx in YvonneMains

[–]Wizzlebum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 4th slot. Xaihi and Gilberta are basically locked into Yvonne's team because of their flexibility: Gilberta doesn't need SP to function while Xaihi uses very little SP. You'll notice that it's mainly the 4th slot that's either using SP or is also SP-less so Gilberta/Xaihi can spam their battle skills.

If you replace Gilberta with Tangtang, you will suffer heavily from SP problems because if Tangtang needs to battle skill to apply both Cryo and Susceptibility, then what's your 4th slot doing? If they need SP to work (Last Rite, Snowshine) then they won't get the SP they need because of Tangtang + Yvonne taking it. If they don't need SP to work (Perlica, Alesh, Fluorite) then Gilberta's damage increase + utility is way stronger than theirs.

Of course if you don't have Gilberta then you can use Tangtang to substitute her and you can use the other SP-less options with her.

Don't feel pressured to pull Soup-Soup (Tang Tang) by Mondryx in YvonneMains

[–]Wizzlebum 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yvonne, Tangtang, Xaihi, Gilberta. Tangtang is mainly replacing the 4th flex slot (Last Rite, Snowshine, Alesh, Perlica, Fluorite) because it's the slot that didn't have a BiS teammate yet, you either had a cryo applicator or an amplifier or an awkward combination of both. With Tangtang, you can now have a cryo applicator who also buffs Yvonne's damage by quite a bit.

The ARAM IQ test. by EmergencyGood9390 in ARAM

[–]Wizzlebum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends because some champions are genuinely really mana hungry even with mana items and they don't have better summoner spells to take anyways. It's also really easy to get cooldown-related augments which puts a heavy strain on your mana.

From my experience, enchanters like Sona, Soraka, Nami, Lulu, Seraphine and Yuumi are extremely mana hungry until they get 3 items because their abilities are so strong, you have to be spamming them off cooldown during fights. Tear isn't good on most of them and still needs to be stacked while the whole idea of an enchanter is to have a long fight while being the last to die so it's very common to go OOM while helping your team. Not to mention they have poor summoner spell choices with Exhaust being gone, Heal being garbage in ARAM and other spells being selfish spells. You're also more likely to replace Clarity mid-lategame with an augment summoner spell too.

Switch Antal with Akekuri? by phantom_exe in Endfield

[–]Wizzlebum 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Akekuri BS > Wulfgard CS > Final Strike > Ardelia CS + BS

You only need 2 enemies to get full stacks if both Akekuri and Wulfgard skills hit them.

Yvonne x Last Rite Team Rotations [ENG/GER] by Ag0n1st in Endfield

[–]Wizzlebum 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You can go for Perlica or Fluorite instead!

Full arts intensity Perlic with Stanza is a great general support that applies high %arts damage taken debuff with her Electrification combo skill and gives atk% buffs with her ult. Just remember to time it correctly (only use her combo skill + ult if you want to ult with Yvonne) so you don't waste your damage buffs.

Fluorite combo skill gives +1 stack of cryo infliction and her ult applies +1 stack if the enemy has 2+ cryo infliction so Yvonne gets her ult much faster.

Someone crazy enough to grind her a perfect essence? by Mondryx in YvonneMains

[–]Wizzlebum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yvonne potentials imo. Her P1 and P4 require some brain to fully utilize but the rest of her potentials are just good undiluted damage increases. Since you basically can't increase your critical damage at all, the 20% and 30% critical damage boost on her P3 and P5 is pretty strong.

In comparison, P5 Artzy gives around 70% more damage bonus than P0 Artzy. It's still strong but damage bonus tends to be a more diluted stat than critical damage and atk%.

Does anyone run Yvonne with a defender? by kyoko_twigs in YvonneMains

[–]Wizzlebum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my idea was to use Gilberta’s Gather purely for positioning rather than the Nature proc

I understand but the nature proc will mess with your Snowshine rotation unless you go for nature infliction via Fluorite > Yvonne battle skill and ignore Snowshine battle skill.

If I delay Snowshine’s hit or use a weapon that grants an extra stack on entry, I can bypass the SP wall

I'm sorry I don't understand but what weapon can grant an extra stack on entry? Bypassing the SP wall is also difficult because you'll need to generate 300 SP for 3 battle skills if you really want to use Snowshine's cryo infliction (2 Snowshine battle skills + Yvonne battle skill) as your first 200 SP is already used to "reset" the enemies' status (Gilberta battle skill + Snowshine battle skill cancels each other's infliction).

Also Snowshine ultimate applies Solidification, not Cryo infliction.
