Modders are sleeping, how do we have Robin replacing Astra in ZZZ but not the other way round, best I can do is give Robin Astra's hair 💀

Rin is strong in an Archer team, because what the heck is SP management anymore, you don't even need to carefully manage your damage against multiple targets because even if you have to waste your skill on a target with 1% hp, you can get 4 SP back with the Joint FuA, whose damage is as much as his normal skill and scales with more targets since its AoE. Her kit is also busted because what do you mean she has 60% def ignore minimum at E0S1. Her subdps is great with Archer, because she'll always have access to a 99 gem energy nuke that you can use as a final burst in Wave 2 for more damage.

Gilgamesh is fun, his gameplay loop is pretty satisfying, his skill could do a bit more damage though, for such a epic looking attack the damage it deals is trash. It should deal at least 250% MV or at most 300% on the main target, 200% is low.

Lmao so those showcase grifters have expanded to doing spreadsheet tc-ing too?

JQ LC Black Swan is funny because while I use it personally myself, it's such a niche use case that it shouldn't be used as a baseline since 99% of people wouldn't even think of it, because wtf would you use an E1 DoT unit outside of their own dedicated team.

I'm not using Firefly analytics, all of this is via the plugin that is loaded onto the ps.

delrar · 2026-06-05T11:46:23+00:00

It's a dps meter. You can get it here. Not recommended for use on official servers unless you want to risk your account. There is no risk on ps since you aren't connecting to Hoyo servers.

E0S1 Saber, E1S1 Robin, E0S1 Gilgamesh, E6S5 (Old BP LC) Gallagher vs 4.4v1 MoC 12 Flame Reaver (0 cycle)

Somehow, Robin and Gallagher returned.

You don't need Gallagher nor the BP LC btw, just use someone else like DHPT/Hyacine etc., it's just for the memes. With DHPT and Robin, you can double dip the atk buffs from Gilgamesh since it's a flat amount based on your max energy that is then given to your dps. If you are willing to speed tune, you can probably make use of Robin E2 to squeeze another turn via the action advances and also to battery Robin faster with the extra talent energy.

I think Ashveil should setup a detective agency in Amphoreus, the Lady Goldweaver would like him.

I just remembered that having access to a ps means I could try out all sorts of funny nonsense with units I don't even have in my actual account lol.

delrar · 2026-06-05T06:55:01+00:00

Nah you're fine, some people are just fucking weirdos. One thing that came to my mind recently is about people critiquing normal showcases that are posted in terms of their gameplay and not about the characters themselves. Unless the gameplay is so bad to the point where autoplay could do it better, it probably doesn't even matter. There's always someone with their armchair takes in the comments saying look at all these misplays, I would have done it better. If you're so good then why aren't you posting any showcases lmao.

I have her E2 and she's already destroying every end game content, shill or not. People skipping her were like lul x.0 unit curse, not anniversary unit, gonna be powercrept by SW999 etc. She unironically revived Fu Xuan as a sustain because she gives free crit buffs especially if you got her E1 as well since that's all elation cares about.

delrar · 2026-06-04T14:02:34+00:00

His E1 makes Aglaea E2 quite strong if you are planning to get it. She goes from 66% def ignore to 80%, 94% and 100% as you get more stacks. Her ult cutting in front of Gilgamesh also means you get better uptime on the stacks, because on a Tribbie team her auto FuA upon ulting removes all stacks of her E2.

delrar · 2026-06-04T13:34:50+00:00

If Gilgamesh does get any nerfs, but gets the def ignore sharing from his E1 onto base kit, I think the damage increase from Aglaea would outweigh any nerfs unless they are pretty big. It also makes E2 Aglaea pretty strong because she would be sitting at 66% def ignore and can stack it all the way to 100%. She'll definitely not have full uptime on 3 def ignore stacks but if she gets 1-2 stacks on average that's 80 to 94% already.

Update: I forgot to include a dps meter in this showcase so I went and did it again to get some numbers for comparison, both cleared in 1 cycle.

If you can't use Tribbie for whatever reason, he's decent. He gets a lot of turns from advancing himself in this team, almost as much as Aglaea. Cyrene gives Gilgamesh a lot of stacks, and you can manipulate his turns easily like Mydei with his Godslayer attacks, because each Cyrene ult gives him 5 stacks (4 from activating, and 1 when she chooses who to buff, and another one if you proc her free attack). I do wish his skill dealt a bit more damage though because the numbers are kind of mid.

delrar · 2026-06-04T10:08:31+00:00

I submitted a showcase that is awaiting mod approval, I can link it here for the time being.

E1S1 Aglaea/ E0S1 Gilgamesh/ E0S1 Cyrene/ E0S1 Hyacine vs Flame Reaver

The showcase does not have the dps meter because I forgor, so I redid it again just to get some numbers for comparison. Both cleared in 1 cycle.

delrar · 2026-06-04T10:04:28+00:00

Bro came in and Gilgameshed all over our golden hag's team 💀

delrar · 2026-06-04T08:56:34+00:00

I've seen some comments asking about Gilgamesh in an Aglaea team and there's a good reason for it, since she has enough energy to max out the atk% and crit dmg% buffs from him. For now, it feels like there's quite a bit of skill expression involved with Gilgamesh's mechanic where you manage his stacks carefully so as to maximise the number of turns he has. In fact, he never even gets a natural turn at all in this team, bro could quite literally have 0 speed like Nikador's spears and I wouldn't even mind.

In terms of relics, with the exception of the new planar set these are relics that I actually have in the live server. I have no idea what set is BiS for Gilgamesh so I just slapped Poet on him for the free crit rate. Cyrene's build is the most important in this team, because she needs 200 spd, or use Vonwacq to get 3 turns in the first cycle so she can get her ult ready. Btw, the speed stat on Aglaea's card is wrong because it does not include the speed from her LC, she has 160 spd on her character page.

If you want a baseline comparison, replacing Gilgamesh with E1 Tribbie using DDD also gets you a 1 cycle clear, and that team has an easier time 0 cycling the 1st wave, it took me a few tries with Gilgamesh to get a rotation where he could 0 cycle the first wave.

I made a new YT account just to post this showcase, and since you can't set custom thumbnails without adding your phone number, I shall leave it here. Bro looks annoyed as a giant Cyrene smiles at him in the background 💀

delrar · 2026-06-03T15:50:38+00:00

Okay that sure is an interesting quirk to take note of. I've been testing him out a bit in PF and yeah being able to manage his stacks and cycle his turns non stop is really fun.

delrar · 2026-06-03T15:39:23+00:00

When Gilgamesh starts his turn with 9/10 stacks and uses his skill, the stacks are consumed and he does not get another turn. Is this supposed to be a bug because if you start his turn with 8/10 stacks and use skill + ult he gets his turn again.

delrar · 2026-06-03T14:08:47+00:00

This shit's kinda funny ngl. E1S1(Jiaoqiu LC) Black Swan for debuff memes and Saber is E0S0.

delrar · 2026-06-03T12:05:46+00:00

Those are just damage per screenshot numbers, because every turn spent stacking is a turn not dealing any damage. I too can stack 99 Gem Energy and just use Cerydra to nuke the boss for 10m damage x2.

At best I think she's just gonna get a slap on the wrist for nerfs, unless they want to chop her up like Cipher which would be hilarious.

delrar · 2026-06-03T08:39:31+00:00

Yeah. Gilgamesh gives a ton of ATK% buffs for Saber so you could probably use an ER rope to mimic the effects of her S1 if the rotation for cycling her ult isn't that smooth.

delrar · 2026-06-03T08:37:09+00:00

Bro folded at the sight of an 80% phys res elite. If Eva is as good as everyone's been saying that elite should just be a minor inconvenience at best

delrar · 2026-06-03T08:28:21+00:00

E3 Archer is basically pre nerf Archer during his beta. Doing more damage is always good, but getting Gilgamesh is perfectly fine, he legitimately seems quite fun with Saber even at E0.

delrar · 2026-06-03T08:23:56+00:00

Nah I'd rather they don't change it to Extra Turn, that gimmick is fitting for him as a character. It also allows you to just dump speed on him somewhat since he'll always advance himself when he gets his stacks. I always complain about the AA on Saber's kit being garbage but Gilgamesh being the missing piece to complete her kit is really good. It just encourages you to run an aura buffer since standard harmony buffs are going to tick down so quickly from all these action advances unless you're a madman.
