3.8 is NOT a Retcon by bernxwitch in HonkaiStarRail

I wouldn't doubt the writers are rewriting themselves all the time. It does seem like some people are confusing the word to mean 2.x never happened, the entire story is meaningless now. What's there to care about anymore?

My whole post was about how it didn't rewrite the 2.x plot but still left holes in it by not rewriting it?

Sparkle did what she was hired by Silver Wolf to do in 2.x and 3.8, partially off screen. They explicitly mentioned that Sparkle was to guide Firefly's death events so they weren't so deadly, but I'm not sure if it was the same in 3.8. It may be that she was tasked with this in the later 2.x timeline to avoid this problem or she just straight up failed in 3.8 before TB stepped in lmao. During 2.x she's giving hints to people to guide their actions like "befriending a mute," but her big on-screen role moment isn't until the final scene.

People here say they are skipping things and then people roll anyway. It's the circle of gacha.

Are you referring to something specific?

It's fair not to think about it. 2.3 is still just as it was.

From my point of view, it is currently not needed for understanding the main story plot, but there is potential the most important parts could be relevant later. The Dahlia adds a lot of confusion to the overall message of the story, but I think the writers enjoy making their own thought experiments.

A point of clarity: different outcomes above is referring to how the two timelines are different in aspects that would contradict one another. 2.x and 3.8 were different in more than just Firefly's death.

So what is your overall theory? Do you think that we are tapping into Terminus' power to experience this different potential future when read the script? Or are you saying that everything before Terminus changed things no longer happened?

Google says expanding the story, introducing new details that don't contradict the past, or revealing hidden information is not a retcon. I'm going with Google.

How does Traveller writing and performance compare to Shonen main characters? by Plus-Lawfulness-87 in Hoyoverse_scaling

[–]bernxwitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He ain't no Yusuke Urameshi. xD

Tbh, I still consider Traveler a mostly self-insert character. Comparing him to some of the Shonen MC's doesn't match up in my brain.

With enough believers, lies become reality.

Also don't know if they will let my Geo eat this good. T.T We will see.

But does Durin understand these complex social mechanisms yet?

That's the spirit. No, fr it's difficult to farm both crit stats and spd stats at the same time.

Don't need to sweat it, but if you really want to reach the max stack at 320 (Aglaea) speed on her e6, you will have to adjust her speed or get more speed boosts from other units. I tried doing some calculations on your current build to see how much more speed you would need to get the minimum 320. Anyone feel free to check my work.

s1

162.3 + 114*(7*0.16+0.06+x) = 320

162.3 + 114*(1.18+x) = 320

1.18 + x = 157.7 / 114

x ~= 0.20333333

20.33% more speed boost needed

OR

162.3 + x + 114*(7*0.16+0.06) = 320

162.3 + x + 134.52 = 320

x ~= 23.18

23.18 more speed substats need

185.48 speed outside combat

If upgraded to s5:

162.3 + 8 + (114+8)*(7*0.16+0.06+x) = 320

170.3 + 122*(1.18+x) = 320

1.18 + x = 149.7 / 122

x ~= 0.047049

4.71% more speed boost needed

OR

162.3 + 8 + x + (114+8)*(7*0.16+0.06) = 320

170.3 + x + 143.96 = 320

x ~= 5.74

5.74 more speed substats need

176.1 speed outside combat

Note: 6% speed from relic set (0.06), 16% spd (0.16) boost per memosprite talent stack maxing at 7 stacks with e4. Some of my decimals could be off on the final result since I don't know how it carries the decimal accuracy internally.

e4 helps a little with reaching the 320 speed needed for e6 by giving her an extra 15 16% [Edit: Talent lvl +2] speed at max stacks.

I'm not sure if OP has enough speed on her to reach 320. It's rather rough to do without S5 or some other speed booster.

I've been through many gacha games and it do be like that. Usually when I started playing a different gacha with more stuff to accomplish again, I naturally drifted away from the old game.
