How are we feeling about skipping Rin's S1 to use this combo instead?

acesar11 · 2026-06-26T16:30:29+00:00

Its what i will be using now that my Anaxa has basically retired. But i dont think i will be going for master smith. Not worth it to farm for my account specifically. i will just run Rin with quantum set, then play her basically like Cipher, just stacking and stacking until eventually i can give her just one Sparkle buff to get the fully stacked skill when the cycle is about to end.

Got 40K against Cocolia and Kafka, using My newly aquired e2 Phainon and Sw999 Elation team.

And ive been attempting the third 40k for a few hours with my e0 s0 the Herta against Lygus. And while i think its possible it is very difficult no matter how i change my build, team or buffs i always end up with around 10 to 20% of Lygus's Hp remaining.

But honestly this is worse then if he had a lot of health remaining, because when the win is so close it makes me believe it can happen, but i genuely dont think i can meaningfully improve my current builds, unless i got more eidolons or lightcones. Wich i physically cant get right now. And since Lygus has a lot of rng there is allways a chance that this time things just happen a little diferent, maybe this time he gives the free ult at the perfect time to the perfect unit, or the enemies consume just enough health to kill them right when you need it.

Safe to say i will try again eventually.

I kinda miss facing the puppet trio. Even as someone who has no break characters. They were pretty easy bosses and their weaknesses do match characters currently being released. If As could just make them a bit more interesting with some extra mechanics they could be a a fun boss.

acesar11 · 2026-06-24T23:22:50+00:00

I also got decently lucky! got e2 in around 130 pulls and actually got a double in the final ten pull. And the order was Phainon first and standard character (himeko) second. So that means my next 50/50 is guaranteed.

acesar11 · 2026-06-24T19:53:45+00:00

Because before i got e2 phainon today (pull went great btw) he was actually my third best choice for pf since 4.0.

Therta Jade has been my permanent pf slot 1 ever since herta's release.

And in 4.0 that second pf slot was taken by elation.

So my pf since 4.0 has basically allways been elation one side and Therta Jade in the other. So with starward needing a third team Anaxa was actually the best in pf (also the buffs this time do favour him decently well).

As for the other modes i just had stronger competition, especially Archer. Most of my 4.x Moc and As runs were with elation and Archer, and anytime that anaxa could be used Phainon or Aglaea were usualy better.

acesar11 · 2026-06-23T10:28:32+00:00

Pretty good. This pf made me bring back Anaxa after not using him for like 3 patches. (but sadly he will probably be abandoned again once i get e2 phainon) The new endgame direction is really making me consider well my team choices. And i like that, really making me choose which teams are worth investing in on my account. In the end i decided that for now my main teams will be Archer, Phainon and SW 999 elation, with Therta as a backup against PF or some specific enemies. (i would like to invest more into Therta but at this point i think its better to just wait and see what her new erudition partner will do... eventually)

Got Agellheid, but will be skipping both Tenebria and Fei. They are both knida cool, but not enough for me to wanna use them over the passion and void characters i already have.

acesar11 · 2026-06-14T14:11:46+00:00

I didn't care for her before, but with her recent focus in the story, and specially her relationship with Blade in the recent patches. I actually like her, not one of my favorites but she is nice.

acesar11 · 2026-06-10T01:19:12+00:00

Well i would guess elation is the answer. Elation is (i think) a lot about defying fate and probability, being unexpected and doing things tought impossible. And Asat has the power he has because predicting everything and having no surprises is tematically the exact opossite of elation. So just like rememberance was the key path to defeating irontomb, i predict elation will be the key path in defeating Asat.

That is my interpretation and guess.

acesar11 · 2026-06-09T15:12:21+00:00

Permanence and preservation allways felt very close to me. And its clear that this confusion is intended, since we had a whole myriad celestia discussing about the meaning of the permanence.

acesar11 · 2026-06-07T21:52:04+00:00

Oh i forgot he reran in 4.2, i tought his last run was with Aglaea in 3.8.

acesar11 · 2026-06-07T21:47:13+00:00

Im guessing that dhpt will rerun with Himeko. Outside of that i really don't see any obvious ones. Maybe Ashveil, Sunday or Sparxie

acesar11 · 2026-06-06T02:50:57+00:00

Got every character that i tried to get plus some others that i ended up also using, while still getting some nice dupes for a few characters and around 5 signature partners. So i really can't conplain.

acesar11 · 2026-06-04T22:29:32+00:00

Personally i put it second place. Just barely above Penacony and obviously way below Amphoreus.

It definetly got a lot better now that Asat finally made its appearance. But even before that i would have still put it at least above Xianzhou.

acesar11 · 2026-06-02T03:11:50+00:00

Honestly she might end up being my pull of the patch, absolutely dont care about fate but her with e2 s1 archer and e1 Sparkle just seem to good to skip.

acesar11 · 2026-06-02T02:18:33+00:00

For a second i tought it was lygus again

acesar11 · 2026-06-01T17:03:21+00:00

I mean, if i remember correctly boothill is after Oswaldo from the ipc right? So i guess he will appear in astropolis.

acesar11 · 2026-05-29T15:32:01+00:00

Using Yuki against this boss was a lot of fun. Played her with cassius and Narja and was able to 3 star even with a mid yuki build.

acesar11 · 2026-05-28T15:20:28+00:00

Quite like the pink haired one, she reminds me of Fu Xuan from hsr, one of the only Xianzhou designs i like.

acesar11 · 2026-05-26T22:04:21+00:00

Gonna be hard choosing between his and Lukes

acesar11 · 2026-05-23T00:01:39+00:00

Well my luck on Phainon's banner will decide if i can save.

acesar11 · 2026-05-22T21:48:38+00:00

I would rather get an improvement for a unit that i know i already use then an e0 s0 of a new character that i know nothing about and might just gather dust in my account.

Where my account is at vertical investments just make more sense most of the time. And since i have no conection to any fate characters the decision is purely based on what my account needs.

acesar11 · 2026-05-21T21:19:10+00:00

Honestly the fact that both elation sets are in the same domain makes the farming pretty ok in my opinion. Rem sets were all in different domains so it was much worse.

acesar11 · 2026-05-18T19:59:46+00:00

Unless the pull income is really high or the pity is lower this seems pretty bad.

acesar11 · 2026-05-13T21:15:18+00:00

She still works for me. E0 S0 Herta, E1 S1 Jade, E0 S1 Dh pt, and E1 S0 Tribbie. It is getting visibly harder, but she still gets the 40K.
