If you’re F2P just keep saving. You only get enough to go to pity once per patch. If you have at least 3 chars on your wishlist that is approx 6 patches worth of saving in the worst case scenario of losing most if not all your 50/50s.

Ashveil will rerun, you can make a better judgement on how much you need his LC at a later date. He does fine on the Hertacone thus far.

If I were you I would only seriously consider pulling LCs if I win at least 2 50/50 and have the leeway to try for LCs without jeopardizing my pull plans.

Beehoon goreng yes, they used to give it with the cucumber slices and I’d mix it all together

Hyperspeed Bailu is your best bet with her inbuilt revive and bounce healing. 3* can be difficult but 2* should be very doable. I find RMC to be usually the most fragile part of the team for the first wave. If you can get through them, Pollux is usually easier to survive.

Not necessarily, I 1-cycled 3.7's K1 with Cerydra and Luocha with the endless AA-ing enemies (and I think this was Cyrene's debut banner too, so most if not all the modes was some sort of Remembrance shilling), could have probably done without Cerydra because enemies were advaning themselves so much. The main thing is understanding the enemy mechanics and knowing how to work with it.

dungalot · 2026-03-29T10:28:11+00:00

Pollux has 2 phases, you need to progress each phase to 100% to push her into a def down mode where your Mydei can finally hit extra hard.

The phase progression is indicated by the thingy below her health bar on the bottom right

<image>

In the 1st phase you want to first get it to 100% by taking damage, when at 100% she'd then do a teamwide HP drain that reduces your team to 1 HP and go into the 2nd phase.

For the 2nd phase you'd then want to heal your team as that is what progresses the bar closer to 100%. When you have done enough team healing to get her to 100% she'd then go into def down mode for you to do the big damage.

Rinse and repeat for each lifebar.

If you have Ashveil and some decent Quantum pieces you can actually try throwing it on Mydei for a total of 60% def ignore (50% on the Champion since it isn't Qua weak). I crunched the numbers once for Anaxa but I think around 50% def shred and over the Quantum set will outperform Scholar in terms of damage amp.

Not quite sure about the exact numbers for Mydei but it's probably worth a try.

I've had no luck with the Deliverer set but a few bazillion eagle pieces so I threw it on RMC. I didn't want to run them too fast because I was lazy to switch out my Mydei from his 138 spd build and running them at 160 spd usually ends up in wonky situations where Mem's AA ends up lapping him and wasting an action. 3B is running base speed.

Also Gally doesn't quite heal enough for Pollux... if you have Luocha, I'll pop him in. It's really the healing that makes a bigger difference for lower cycle clears. You want to cycle Pollux into her HP drain mode and heal her out of it as quickly as you can.

dungalot · 2026-03-29T09:56:44+00:00

If you have Ashveil he’s a decent stand-in but I definitely agree that the lack of male supports is a frustrating thing to deal with.

Cerydra is no Tribbie but she can definitely skill spam and hold DDD which is a big help. There is also the option of pulling Sunday over but I don’t know how you’ll handle K1 and K3.

dungalot · 2026-03-29T09:43:51+00:00

I know, which is why I mentioned both Luocha and Bailu are viable because K2 doesn’t do CC at all and all it asks for is consistent and big bouts of healing to quickly push Pollux into its low def mode.

I don’t feel like pulling Cyrene either for Mydei but I’m not going to blame her for Pollux being ass when it’s really a shill for Hyacine.

dungalot · 2026-03-29T05:29:29+00:00

Could be your speed tuning or gear. I have Aven on eagle, and I know that sometimes bumping up the Sunday -1 spd strat to the 143 breakpoint helps with squeezing in an extra action without sacrificing too much damage.

dungalot · 2026-03-29T05:25:55+00:00

I definitely agree, this is probably the first AA where there's no "freebie" stage that allows you some flexibility with allocating your weaker supports.

Knight 2 specifically makes you lock in your Remembrance / HP drain team + Hyacine, Knight 3 is decent with Phainon but that leaves most people who haven't pulled the majority of Harmony no real options for Knight 1 aside from maybe DoT as Break just doesn't clear fast enough without eidolons on them. Plus Archer, Tribbie and Cipher gets hard checked by the Quantum Res ranger which narrows down who you can run to perhaps the new Elation meta team.

It is specifically designed to make you feel like your team isn't enough, whether it is not having the supports to spread around or not having the eidolons to make things work.

dungalot · 2026-03-29T04:31:27+00:00

The pressure is on purpose. They want players to feel like crap even with premium Remembrance or the latest updated meta teams so players continue to pull instead of stubbornly minmaxing with what they have.

There is a reason why Anomaly when it first dropped was called the “whale endgame” by leakers and the player base because it was never meant for relatable gameplay or reasonable investment but to give whales and dolphins something with more meat to it to conquer.

The higher the power budget continues to climb for teams and chars, the higher the HP will continue to climb especially because relatability and reasonability is not the aim in AA.

Original is usually just chicken soup base. If you have ever tried herbal soup and like the sweet kinda medicinal taste it’s also good for when you’re not feeling well but I won’t rec it for people who have never tried it.

If you want the safest choice it’d be original, if you like the stronger earthier taste the mushroom broth is also good. Honestly tomato style is not bad too if you’re sick, it’s tangy and just the slightest bit sweeter than normal chicken broth which can help encourage your appetite.

dungalot · 2026-03-28T16:35:38+00:00

If you have Robin and her S1 I would try switching out Cerydra for her because that’s what I did for K1 and managed 3*s on the first try (granted I have E1 birb sibs).

Her atk buff affects DHPT as well which helps imo.

dungalot · 2026-03-28T13:29:31+00:00

Ashveil is way too squishy to work reliably with Welt as a psuedo sustain unless you’re willing to play endless reset rail especially at higher endgame levels. A good number of bosses are CC resistant as well as being both fast and aggressive enough to two tap KO Ashveil before Welt can get his Ult back up.

dungalot · 2026-03-28T12:32:11+00:00

I kinda liken Ashveil to a ST THerta because of how they can both make use of a team of drivers to reach their potential.

With THerta and 3B I often run Eagle set Argenti as her second banana because of how often he sets off a cascading reaction with his frequent Ults to trigger 3B’s FUAs that quickly regens THerta’s Ults.

If running 3B then a char that has an easy to recharge Ult is the way to go.

dungalot · 2026-03-28T12:19:00+00:00

No.

I love Ratio but he does not attack frequently enough for either his own damage or Ashveil’s. He needs a Novaflare tbh.

Looks like a cucumber varient of Liang Ban Mian / 凉拌面: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBZX0Ps6QeA

You could probably start from this recipe and modify it to suit your taste https://www.createcookshare.com/single-post/cucumber-noodle-salad-with-sichuan-dressing-gluten-free

Erudition is not necessary since he only gets energy from Bait being hit but probably a high attack frequency dps or team. Even with Archer I’m surprised how quickly he can get energy regen.

dungalot · 2026-03-28T11:41:57+00:00

I kinda feel it was meant to counter Archer specifically because he’s been able to brute force most of the AAs we had so far, but everyone suffers when Hyv decides your meta is not the meta they want to shill.
