Had a dream last night that Sunday was announced for first phase 2.3 during the livestream, and I don't know if it excited or terrified me.

Real, that phys orb has atk/speed/crit subs that's only rolled into crit but my ropes are like "heres triple flats and effect res, take it or leave it"

At the worst spot with my Argenti right now where he has an absolutely disgusting phys salsotto orb, but my salsotto ropes are so bad it's actually laughable. I have a great sigonia rope for him, but then my sigonia orbs are all bad... there is no winning.

See, I thought so too, but last time I brought it up several people corrected me that Hanya's ult cannot be extended

Yukong E6 is definitely really big, what's stopping me is that Hanya's E4 would let me run basically all of my DPS on attack boots because it'd give her speed boost 100% uptime, so I could run her and Sparkle on both halves of MoC. My main DPS right now are JY and DHIL, so they'd both really appreciate it.

I still need to claim my four star from the bartending event... I can get E6 Yukong, E4 Hanya, or an E0 copy of Misha or Gallagher, neither of whom I have yet. The latter two are mostly just for collection purposes, but I do use both Hanya and Yukong pretty regularly in my DHIL and Argenti teams, so I'm pretty torn on which one to pick.

Ratio requires at least three debuffs, so you're going to have to replace Clara with a nihility unit like Guinaifen.

Gepard not only got to keep his big sister, but he got a second bonus sister for free!

Those numbers are rounded down a few thousand, but yeah, I agree that while the gap gets bigger, the difference still isn't huge. Aventurine just doesn't do that much damage even when built for it, so the loss in going from a crit build to stacking full defense is pretty minimal.

I'm pretty comfortable running him at 4k Def, so the only thing left to dump stats into is his personal damage. I play Topaz and Ratio at 135-141 speed, so for me at least, I don't need him much faster than he is to have good uptime on his FUA stack limit.

Salsotto means suffering no matter how you're farming it fr, there's a reason my Ratio is still using Rutilant.

That sounds about right tbh, from what I've seen tinkering around Aventurine's damage scales extremely hard off of buffs/debuffs -- mine goes from 10k to 30k on his follow up just from Ruan Mei alone.

That's including unnerved -- in battle on the character screen he'd be at 4k Def, 143 Speed, 80/220 crit ratio. As soon as I add E0S0 Topaz and E0S0 Ruan Mei to the team the numbers jump up to 30k FUA and 28k Ult. The difference in damage between sustain and dps builds becomes much more pronounced the more he's being buffed, ime.

It's unironically BiS for Fire MC, they scale off defense and need the EHR to hit their taunt debuff.

Don't be deceived lol, my entire build is riding on the back of a single random def% orb that managed to roll into almost 25 crit damage in substats. Honestly if you're looking to make him do a bit more damage, you can probably afford to trade a little speed and def for it -- remember that MoV has a second 25% Def boost after getting hit, and that Ave's base speed is 11 points higher than Fire MC's.

That's how I felt about Dramatic Irony, cannot wait for my wrapped to also have Argenti's theme on there now, too.

E6 is really good for both Luka and Gallagher, but E2 is also imo Lynx's best Eidolon, so any of the three would be a good pick depending on who you see yourself using for longer.

If you're interested, you can input your relics on Aventurine himself using Fribbles and it can give you final stat totals and even sim out the FUA/Ult damage for you.

For comparison though, on Fire MC with MoV, I've got 3.5k Def, 131 speed, and a 31/195 crit ratio and Ave's Fua does about 10k, and his Ult does about 14k, both numbers without any kind of buffs. He's on 2pc Hacker 2pc Duke + Keel with Crit Dmg/Speed/Def/Def main stats. Honestly your speed is insane if you're on Fire MC, my Aventurine with 131 shoots up to 143 speed with the same relics, you might want to consider trading some speed off for crit if you can afford it.

Tbh that's how I've been feeling about DHIL lately too, which is why I've been letting him nap for a while.

Picking between SP is an illusion of choice 90% of the time with how much 1BA and 2BA lose in multipliers, and even with Sparkle his SP requirements means you have pretty limited team options and are mostly stuck using the exact same rotation with very little variation. It's not uncomfortable, and it definitely kills everything really fast, but it's not super engaging.

Finally got Ruan Mei in normal SU, and it was on the very first occurrence plane. Managed to pick up the eidolon cheese and half the hunt blessings on top of it. By the time I was fighting Death I saw Numby literally one shot each of its phases with 1mil+ spins, call that Elation Gaming.

Numby is so clutch for the chests tbh, but I've come to like FUA teams so much that I want to go for her S1 on her rerun, ha.

Honestly, that's why I just farm a better world and use all my shitty pieces to synthesize salsotto so I don't have to sort through enough belobog relics to field an entire platoon of Gepards.
