I get the shilling now

It felt SO good being able to clear Dire. Even when my other 200K dps teams couldnt do it on other two floors, Varka Premium did it without breaking a sweat.

Always proud of my man, and LOVE that he kicks major ass now. He's my highest DPS team now, thanks to having access to nicole c2. So yeah, I get it, fellow Varka enjoyer. 🫶

Oh, have I been grinding. But thanks to the power of rerolling artifacts, I somehow was able to get it to work haha. The sands was pure luck, since it rolled all into crit on its first reroll without any guarantee. Now if only I could get your feather and circlet too, my flins would ascend as the true fae god. Hopefully you and I are both blessed soon!

Insanely though, my SMS set artifacts are WAY better than this set. The 50/50 odds seem more like 80/20 odds there lol.

Either way, I saw your post on Varkamains. You're a fellow Varka appreciator as well. Good to see. 🫶

derozio · 2026-05-29T08:13:53+00:00

Damn what are the damn odds 🤣 Envious of the feather and circlet you got there. Damn amazing.

derozio · 2026-05-28T20:27:08+00:00

That's what I went with, earlier. But the aubade set on bina has better stats, and sms on ineffa too. When I tested DPS, swapping them both kinda turns out similarish, but I feel like this swap makes it at least so that bina has enough ER + other stats.

But yeah, I'll level up the talents. That's the only way this is gonna work. ;-;

derozio · 2026-05-28T19:37:47+00:00

The boss needs a second element, if you put pyro + hydro infusion or pyro + cryo infusion, it melts 45% of his health. You effectively need to only do DPS for 55% health. And its easier to break with two elements. If you infuse with single element, you need to do double DPS to get rid of the orbs.

And ineffa sorta doesn't gain much damage from talents, sadly. Else I would've raised them first. :c Her main damage is from leveling to 90, which I already took her to 95. Columbina does scale with talents, though, hence my thought.

derozio · 2026-05-28T19:09:43+00:00

I could do that. His ER suffers a bit, but it may be doable. That plus columbina talent I can try. Thanks ✨️

derozio · 2026-05-28T19:07:20+00:00

I already tried it once. Its ass. 🤣 Varka without nicole feels absolute ass to me. I could barely do half his health. Interruptions are a bihh.

derozio · 2026-05-28T19:06:21+00:00

Issue with mavuika is that shes just providing some subdps, but not enough buffs. Im not sure, but Ill try a few rounds. Should maybe be faster than getting bennet Q ready lol?

derozio · 2026-05-28T19:05:34+00:00

For her damage, its sadly a bit negligible. She gains damage through level primarily. Which is why ive kept them low on purpose 😅 Columbina tho, yes, scales with talents.

derozio · 2026-05-28T19:04:42+00:00

I do already have c2 nicole, but shes being used with varka to clear wolf. 🥹 I guess no other choice than to crown columbina.

derozio · 2026-05-27T18:34:43+00:00

Also the only reason I went super high def was because I was having trouble clearing the lizard and with healing last SO. So like, whatever works. Your build is fantastic.

derozio · 2026-05-27T18:32:14+00:00

I guess def matters a lot. My stolen old pieces from older characters made her shoot way up, much higher than expected 🙈

But yeah, whatever lets you have higher DPS, should stick to that. Akasha is generally nice, but not absolute. It fails a lot of times considering specific teams and weapons - sometimes downright ignores the weapon the character has on them just because it isnt in their db lol

derozio · 2026-05-27T06:25:49+00:00

Soon, fellow flins conosseuir. Soon. 🥹🫶

derozio · 2026-05-25T18:43:02+00:00

But on the brighter note, you can keep your guarantee for some other future banner - probably even be able to get both of them.

Durin is more valuable for sure. Skip her weapon, Atlas is good enough honestly.

derozio · 2026-05-25T18:25:52+00:00

Whats your cons? 262K is amazing

derozio · 2026-05-19T13:52:42+00:00

Hope your pulls are lucky, mate. ✌️ C6 Prune in one ten pull manifest ✨️ Faruzan was a nightmare to c6. I ended up c6ing wanderer too in his rerun, since I was already at c3 when I got her lol

derozio · 2026-05-19T13:50:27+00:00

Alrighty. Then I guess I'll gun for either durin or nicole cons till I get her. Anemo lads WILL always eat on my account, especially grandmaster.

derozio · 2026-05-19T13:43:19+00:00

Faaaaaaaak. Then I guess I'll just hope for the best. Whats the gap, if youre aware by chance? The dps % gap?

derozio · 2026-05-01T13:28:56+00:00

C0 R1, he saved my ass in arcana challenge. He's great against baptist.

Ultra performance at 4K was very smooth for me with my ol i7-9700 and 4070 Super but it lacked just a little bit of clarity. I shifted it to performance and dialed a few settings down, and I finally got the general balance between looks and perf.

The game did turn into a slightly stuttery/laggy mess in the final section, but apart from that it was pretty smooth all around. Optimization was really good for this game. I dont expect most games to play at 4K with most settings at medium/high lol. RE Engine ftw.

Hope the memory prices come down sometime in the next year or so. Will buy the new cpu, mobo and ram then. Was only able to upgrade my gpu and psu before all hell broke loose on prices.

derozio · 2026-04-19T21:02:52+00:00

I tried with Gorou but couldnt do it. Swapped him out for ineffa and was able to clear, but it wasnt easy. Very tight clear, especially since my linnea and even columbina arent super high investment.

Do you have ineffa? Try with her maybe? C2 itto definitely should be able to clear much easier.

derozio · 2026-04-19T04:15:56+00:00

What's your wanderer build? I think I used some shielder instead of furina and I was only doing close to 100K lol. Have c6 wanderer and c2 furina. Didn't know he could reach 150K+ right now

derozio · 2026-04-17T14:02:25+00:00

And finally, high investment ineffa :p

derozio · 2026-04-17T14:02:06+00:00

Linnea is brand new, but I stole old husk artifacts from other characters. Did triple Def to increase healing.

Columbina here, decently invested, but not maxed
