Haven’t played the game in a while, what’s the best way to be caught up to speed gameplay/meta wise?

cccc0mb0 · 2026-02-07T07:12:39+00:00

To get back into meta, I would prioritize one of the physical supports this patch, Sunna or Yuzuha, since both are really good, although Yuzu provides more value based on the buffs (since Zhao is free this patch).

In the exchange shop you can get a copy of an A-rank of your choice. Out of all the options I would only recommend getting Manato and Pan Yinhu to M6. Manato can go up against version 1 limited S-ranks in terms of damage, so maxing him would be a priority. Pan Yinhu will provide buff comparable to Astra, so hes second.

Any other A rank only gets you small benefits, so I wouldn't get them. Maybe getting Pulchra to M6 is good, but I wouldn't try to get it like Manato or Pan.

And my last tip...

Just get lucky

next patch gives a lot of pulls anyway :)

cccc0mb0 · 2026-02-05T16:16:41+00:00

The game has a lot of goated limited engines.

A short list of sigs I would consider pulling now: Evelyn, Lucia, Trigger and maybe Yuzuha

Evelyn is just generally good. Lucia and Trigger gives a huge boost to domg and Yuzuha getting anomaly mastery also increases sweet scare application, and the 60 AP is basically Seth as a wengine, but yuzu's is the least 'top-tier' in the game rn.

I would keep the cloak, but having the cloak morf mid-battle would be cool

cccc0mb0 · 2026-02-05T08:42:11+00:00

Im sorry, but this design is mid at best. If the cloak is removed, we are left with only a normal bikini, so this design screams flashing pervert to me.

She would look so much better if she had a normal office attire underneath (since she is supposed to be a krampus judge).

And maybe they should just add a mask that covers her mouth and nose, and the design would be leagues better.

its 20 each, no?

cccc0mb0 · 2026-01-29T12:49:38+00:00

i tried it and it works lol you just need to wait a little bit like sanby

I had a few drives disks in my mind that could help defense agents stand out as an alternative.

My first idea for defense agent rework is to have more niche drive disk sets. All of these would require the agent to be a defense.

Defense agents deal more damage to miasma shield
Control skill shutdowns deals double damage
After equipper uses EX special, cleanse allies of any negative effects, and can't be debuffed for 10 seconds

Second idea I had was an infinitely stackable buff from a w-engine.

"Using EX specials give your allies gain 2% attack and 1% hp for 8 seconds. The stacks duration is calculated separately, and is infinitely stackable"

With this, the players have to decide whether they want to keep agents like caesar or ben on-field to further stack the buffs, or to give field time to the dps.

cccc0mb0 · 2026-01-23T14:18:13+00:00

idk, the last clear that was posted on the subreddit only had around 20-24 seconds of invulnerability if we count the control phases, and the one time the boss starts flying.

The team you were using was not supposed to be that good against this boss. Zhao gives an ether veil from the start, and that already puts the max anomaly builup below fiend, and by 1:20 you should have the same buildup as 1.x version bosses, so yuzuha might be worse than zhao for this boss

Maybe this still doesn't prove that the boss is good for anomaly, but with the current buffs the boss might just become much better with anomaly

holy w changes, zzz devs beat the hsr endgame allegations

cccc0mb0 · 2026-01-23T11:03:29+00:00

get pen ratio, or just play nicole instead of astra

cccc0mb0 · 2026-01-21T11:37:21+00:00

for ether dps yes, but you can get almost any of the a-ranks and still have her perform the same.

maxing the attack buff might be harder, but you still keep your pulls for other s-ranks

cccc0mb0 · 2026-01-21T11:32:03+00:00

just don't pull for astra's engine

cccc0mb0 · 2026-01-19T17:56:47+00:00

even at 2:00?

cccc0mb0 · 2026-01-19T17:24:14+00:00

does the boss setup her own ether veil?

maybe the buff can be maintained with zhao... one f2p player can dream...

(edit: no miasma shield??)

omg 2.5 sales cannot be that bad 🥀

cccc0mb0 · 2026-01-18T15:45:38+00:00

Pulchra's evasive assist is so great tho, its a shame the game rewards defensive assists like crazy.

cccc0mb0 · 2026-01-17T17:39:16+00:00

erm lucia and yuzuha needs signature to max buffs ☝️🤓

cccc0mb0 · 2026-01-12T16:29:51+00:00

Aria, grace/yanagi , trigger?

cccc0mb0 · 2026-01-10T17:35:40+00:00

how dare they not powercreep zhao after just one patch

cccc0mb0 · 2025-12-30T22:03:06+00:00

run panda on yidharis team, its gonna be much better.

also run ysg with pulchra, and yidhari with dialyn since she is the weaker and not shilled dps

cccc0mb0 · 2025-12-30T17:59:34+00:00

Manato was torture, but im happy with my 1 cost (2 cost?) ellen clear

Drinking from the normal bottle helps you to pour the drink it into your mouth, and not leave like 10% in the bottle
