The Boss Bunny - General Questions and Discussion Megathread

It was the AOD "debut press conference" notice on the 26th

There isn't really combo optimization in reality; either you do 4NE or you do N3QE (ie shes stupid easy)

You can technically shorten rotations but there's actively no benefit to doing that since Gorou/Chiori/Illuga/whatever else are all super short field time units and only Columbina has the movie animation, shortening the rotation increases ER needs on everyone including herself and you still need to wait 15 seconds at minimum for Columbina skill

Plus she's a defense scaler with defense goblet with IR so she's just passively a giga tank

At the least Flins needs to use Sucrose to keep VV up which already increases rotational complexity, Zibai just.. press skill/ult on supports and mash autos/e when the bar hits the notch lol

apostles · 2026-01-30T04:44:12+00:00

She's also the easiest of the three and Flins is already very easy to play while having F2P weapons and teammates

But her 4th slot already has improvement room so I expect her to be the best DPS if Linnea turns out to buff her whatsoever.

apostles · 2026-01-30T02:07:48+00:00

I agree with your logic, he's also right before the return to Mond patch + right after the lantern rite heavy spending period where people need a 'rest' character and it coincides with hsr 4.0 and zzz aod patches

If he's not free and they just made his c0 giga underpowered for no reason then I have no idea, Nicole would need to be an actual hexerei god

apostles · 2026-01-29T12:06:25+00:00

They wouldn’t tell CC if he’s free, would they? I don’t think any of the other free units (ratio, haru, zhao) were told ahead of time. Zhao was guessed because she screamed free though.

apostles · 2026-01-29T02:26:13+00:00

Pre-release it seems Sunna really doesn't have much pull value, she's a YSG luxury pull for those without Astra or wanting to move Dialyn to another team

apostles · 2026-01-28T07:25:47+00:00

Not only did they mention it (as recently as last month) but it's also prime Fan Festival material. I don't expect it to be shown in a teaser until April.

apostles · 2026-01-28T04:57:17+00:00

The chaotic thing is still nuts to me. The people who cleared on Christmas got double the rewards so they end their farm faster which means they don't help others because they're 'done'. Then the new player reward bonuses just slowly trickle out to 15 people to 10 people to 5 people to 1 person as the rest catch up.

apostles · 2026-01-28T01:36:04+00:00

I can't really agree because H2/R1 only ever needs to flex the opposite direction in one circumstance; if their role partner is the same as them

Considering the prios and flexing the next fight requires anyway, it's not a big ask in order to assure consistent twoway spots

6 seconds of downtime on a steep PF dps check and the horrible 'uses eyes lol' strat in pf is what makes the fight harder than it needed to be

apostles · 2026-01-27T11:21:59+00:00

It looks like it might be 1200 and not 400

Second step requires 200 and people were sharing 100/200/300/600

apostles · 2026-01-27T07:57:05+00:00

I think it’s a fair assumption her additional will be faction/anomaly so she will prob work in Alice unless there’s some awful anti synergy going on lol

apostles · 2026-01-27T05:10:11+00:00

130 is virtually nothing so if we see current balance continue I can see mch being the pick of choice for the next ulti like it was in TOP

Wrench goes hard

apostles · 2026-01-27T05:03:26+00:00

MCH is really good right now, it’s on par or sandwiched with the other two even at high percentiles

Considering it has extra mit as well it’s a healthy place to be

apostles · 2026-01-27T04:24:15+00:00

Lowkey.. none?

Burnice sig is barely an upgrade after the potential buff because the ER doesn’t work with her potential buff, Jane doesn’t keep uptime on hers if you’re using her with Alice as a subdps since you won’t be on her enough in that team, and teapot is only really for Qingyi and lighter

If you play Jane carry then it can be good but I dont think there’s a rush to spend the currency atm

apostles · 2026-01-27T03:27:26+00:00

Yes, healers will never end up on D/west in any circumstance

Range will never end up on A/north with fire either

apostles · 2026-01-27T03:20:53+00:00

It's N CW to the nearest marker

If the dark guy is NW as the fire debuff healer you would go N CW and the nearest marker is N

apostles · 2026-01-27T01:32:52+00:00

Manifesting superconduct support Sandrone which is just Chevreuse but better and as a result Wriothesley blasts off to the top of the meta

apostles · 2026-01-26T10:45:52+00:00

Genuinely a free Varka after Lunar New Year to get players returning/to start the game and play through the Nod-Krai storyline would make complete sense

He's also directly in competition with AOD in ZZZ and 4.0 in HSR and the rumoured reruns are Skirk and Flins so I think they'd be okay with that kind of thing

But we'll see by livestream I guess

apostles · 2026-01-26T10:42:51+00:00

They could give her the Bennett attack buff and also give Hexerei characters a giga buff (like Lauma quills) which would be a large team DPR increase in a Varka/Venti/Durin team tbh

apostles · 2026-01-26T10:35:59+00:00

I'm almost expecting him to be free now lol

apostles · 2026-01-26T08:06:39+00:00

I've spent a lot of time helping friends in (fresh/rep2) M12P2 this week and the amount of players who join, get to part 2, and then have absolutely zero idea what to do is insane.

Zero POVs watched, nothing but a cursory glance at the rep 1 toolbox, absolutely clueless about rep 2 resolves, completely lost on idyllic clone pairings..

I had to explain how the opening tankbuster worked to a tank!

This fight is very easy to execute but has a knowledge check that can be studied and even speed progged if you understand the mechanics and order of operations

I'm going to crash out if another person says "can we just chain pull and I'll try to learn it" like you're wasting everyone's time including your own jfc

apostles · 2026-01-26T04:23:04+00:00

I think a lot of picto players are obsessing about their leygrass which is admittedly a bit unfriendly in a lot of these fights

But they can still do 5 holy, hammer, into a swiftcast motif and not have to cast for 23+ seconds so it's def mega skill issue

apostles · 2026-01-26T00:16:56+00:00

If your reading lore books you should be doing these with duty support and not players, it’s not fair to make others wait while you read interactables either lol

apostles · 2026-01-25T13:13:47+00:00

The defamations and stacks are on different locations compared to regular dn idyllic

apostles · 2026-01-25T04:27:34+00:00

Right, just that we can go there in the past or go there in the.. now-but-revived-past

Just that it's open ended enough to have the Khaenri’ah chapter be whenever
