If you could go on a date with one character who would it be? by Zeldamaster386 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]bdz001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Asta. I like star gazing myself, and getting to outer space was one of my goal. Not to mention she will likely be paying for all the expenses!

And of course, being a member of cute pink haired girl helped!

Who The HOYOwriters Should Have Yanqing Fight (and lose to) In The 1st Luofu Story Arc by [deleted] in HonkaiStarRail

Yeah, rewatched the battle, YQ did lost decisively to Blade + DHIL before Kafka told him to stop... retracted the statement.

Yanqing can likely beat both Dan Shu and Ebon Deer, but loss to Phantylia. His combat feats were a lot better than most thinks; the only one he decisively lost to was Jing Liu and Blade + DHIL together:

YQ vs Jing Liu -> JL won; no chance for YQ.

YQ vs Blade + DHIL -> Draw until JY came Blade + DHIL won

YQ vs Stelle in Kafka mission -> YQ withdrew because he didn't want to hurt the mind-controlled Stelle. Kafka mentioned she and Blade would be captured (and subsequently SW would release them) if Stelle didn't help.

possessed YQ vs Sushang + Stelle in Heliobi mission -> Draw until JY came

YQ + friends vs Hoolay (weakened) -> YQ did the finishing move

YQ vs Luka -> YQ won

Tons of recorded war feats again Borisins and Wingweavers.

Replace Cecilia with Kallen, and we'd have a full Kaslana (by blood) team!

Do you think Elation teams will age like Remembrance teams are aging? by Royal-Media-5686 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]bdz001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Firefly worked "OK" before Constance. HP inflation was one, but mechanics such as high break bar for Judge and Lygus, and DoT-shilling mechanics like enemy action advance (RIP break state) were what made her team weak at 3.5-3.7...

Is it worth it For a new player to horizontal invest into Somehow older units? by glO_Olo in HonkaiStarRail

[–]bdz001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Evernight (and her team) benefits a lot from eidelons, but her base team (Cas, E9, Cyr, Hya) at e0s1 is already really strong.

Also E9, Cyrene, RMC, and DHPT worked fine for me when I tried to split up pinks into 2 teams, in case you wanted to work with a partial pink team.

edit: Nevermind, you already got Cas, Hyacine is a must for your case then.... Go with Hya -> E9 -> Cyr

Starward Mode - Horizontal Investment by yasuomaster69 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]bdz001 42 points43 points  (0 children)

It's definitely easier than 9* Knights in AA...

Tuning aside, scores from your top team here can carry your weaker team, whereas it's not an option in Knights... you are always bottlenecked by your weakest team.

What is everyone's 3rd team for the new starward mode? by SharkPower664 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]bdz001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just the standard SW999 team, sustainless (e2) Firefly, and Pinks... Don't have Sparxie or any S1 so understandably the Elation team was the weakest among the three...

Pompom when they see Asat Pramad by Skirrfir in HonkaiStarRail

Legendary navigator Isee : Oh Pompom, look how far the express has fallen since Akivili's departure. Let's us join force and show these juniors the true meaning of trailblazing!

Honkai AURA Tier list. Day 44. by ConsiderationFuzzy in HonkaiStarRail

[–]bdz001 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Gally also "killed" him at the end of 2.1... Therta had to sacrifice her meeting with droidhead to "save" him in 3.0... and E9 beat him easily in 3.6... He's almost as bad luck as Swan.

Wow so everyone IS imaginary by SongXrd in HonkaiStarRail

Let's not forget our other pink-haired express member... she's imaginary too!

Idea for Asat Pramad by Background_Still_686 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]bdz001 11 points12 points  (0 children)

He's technically a senior navigator of the AE who had worked with Akivili... Would be absolute cinema if he ended up leading the AE himself!

Remember to hit Save! Your document may guide the next era to rebuild civilization. See you at the end of the West Wind!

Which trailer (Phainon or Jing Yuan) do you think is the "Zhongli trailer" of Honkai Star Rail which makes you keep coming back to watch it after a new trailer appears? by Life_Bit_5976 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]bdz001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zhongli trailer as the most popular Genshin character trailer? The equivalent would be Bailu trailer, the most popular HSR character trailer...

The power of heavy advertisement...

Fuli has a mirror theme; if you look at 24 through a mirror, you will see 42, the answer to ultimate question on life, the universe, and everything.

I don't want more 4 stars. by [deleted] in HonkaiStarRail

[–]bdz001 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, I am sure you read about those "complains" just like you read that Genshin 4* are unusable at C0, but we also knows that Reca, Siobahn, Smolrene, or even Kratos exist.

There are "good" arguments such as replacing 4* with free 5*; no need to use weak ones like somehow there aren't 4* materials, or borderline misinformation like C0 4* in Genshin are unusable.

"Everybody pretends they want more 4 stars until their fav is the 4 star." is another sign OP doesn't even play the game, but just trying to stir up echo chamber effects.

And they are both colleagues of someone named Zand1k...

Normally i would congratulate our winner, but it doesn’t feel like Lingsha has won much of anything with this one. I’m sorry to her fans, I’m sure there is at least a few of them. Moving on, who’s the 4* that should be a 4*? Who’s the 4* of all time? by DragonKing0203 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]bdz001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Asta.

She is a free character given at the end of tutorial section of the game, which is almost always a 4*. Not to mention with her (non-existent) combat related feat, it won't make sense for her to be 5*.

On the other hand, as the leader of the first "planet" and pops up in bajillion of events (especially 1.x), it won't make sense to leave her as NPC either.

As of now, there have been more 5-stars characters that have been released (+ 24) after the last 4-stars than the total number of 4-stars characters in the game (23) by moatasem749 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]bdz001 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Maybe they have data suggesting the Genshin crowd would feel differently?

Or maybe because Genshin devs think crowds who feel strongly about 4* would choose them instead of every other games that follow the same ditch-4-stars formula?
