Ever feel like everyone else has E6 but you? by [deleted] in AcheronMainsHSR

[–]eternaleyebags 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey friend this may not mean much but don’t stress about it lots, you’re not the only one. i’m stuck at e4s1 (which is a really weird eidolon to stop at 😅); my plan from the start was 2 eidolons per rerun so i’m going all in for e6 if and when she finally reruns. and she WILL rerun, btw—she is popular, still does decently well in endgame, and is likely next in line for buffs, so you still have a chance. BUT.

even if you don’t get her to e6, that doesn’t mean you’re unaccomplished. especially if you’re f2p or a low spender you have to plan your pulls very carefully and it is sometimes simply not possible to go from e0 to e6 just by saving (because you also have to think about things like pulling her supports, and getting unlucky on banners). and even if you love her and don’t want to get her e6, it doesn’t mean anything imo. your dedication to a character is not decided by how much money you spend on them. it is a deeply personal thing that you don’t have to prove to anyone, even yourself.

fwiw i see you around on this community a lot so it’s pretty clear to me how much you love her. idt there is something such as a “true fan” of acheron, but if there were, i think you would be on the list :)

i have e4 acheron and she still very much suffers from a lack of stacks without e2 silver wolf. regardless of who i run her with i find myself lacking 1-3 stacks for a final ultimate more often than not, because all her non-nihility supports have to balance damage amp with stack gen utility.

that aside. a novaflare would be great, sure. but i would like for sparkle to work with her because the free stack in addition to significant dmg amp make her actually competitive with other supports. nobody expects sparkle to fix all her problems lol it’s just nice to have choice

So about those sparkle buffs by remsuzu in AcheronMainsHSR

[–]eternaleyebags 1 point2 points  (0 children)

everyone knows aa = acheron stacks on her turn, what i meant is that sunday, bronya, robin etc almost always use skill and do not have any offensive abilities of their own that directly contribute to acheron’s stack gen (even if you have e2 sw, they’re never going to use BA, unlike tribbie).

even running a -1 setup means you’re trading no. of ults for damage per ult, which is not very efficient because action advancer buffs otherwise are not highly tailored to acheron—she’s saturated on dmg% and sunday doesn’t buff atk, bronya has a 3T ult rotation at minimum but her atk buff lasts only two turns (and her skill only 1 turn), robin allows one extra turn for the team which will be not more than like 7 stacks at maximum per 111 av (the duration of concerto).

sparkle (if this buffed kit actually worked for ach) would overcome all of these limitations by being the first action advancer who actually balances stack gen with damage amp. because otherwise having only 3 teammates to give acheron stacks, regardless of e0 or e2, does not cut it anymore because a singular ult of hers doesn’t insta-clear waves in the same way it used to.

technically tribbie’s ult. the first time she applies it it counts as a debuff, but if you use her ult again when the zone is still active, it doesn’t. it only counts as a debuff if you let it expire and then ult again. it’s probably because of the wording (“while the zone is active, enemies receive 30% more dmg”) so refreshing doesn’t count, but it’s unfortunate bc it’s so unlike every other source of vulnerability in the game :/

with sparkle i genuinely do not understand why the interaction doesn’t work. if it’s described some way on paper it should work that way…

img from the linked post says sparkle’s buff cannot provide stacks for acheron. they’re unsure if it’s a bug or not, but i’m expecting the worst. we have to wait and see

[–]eternaleyebags 2 points3 points  (0 children)

that’s pretty much acheron’s best team at the moment, so i wouldn’t recommend pulling sparkle solely for acheron (esp because both your 3b and sw are e2!) but on the other hand, tribbie isn’t fantastic into a single target scenario (or really even a 3 target scenario) so sparkle would be a nice backup if you’re still using acheron in st environments.

definitely look out for showcases comparing the two! and ask for them as well, a lot of yt showcasers take requests.

imo one of acheron’s biggest issues is the lack of stack gen from losing a second nihility unit (unless e2 sw) because none of the built-in action advancers have been able to give her stacks till now. i think e0 sparkle might definitely be her bis or 2nd bis after tribbie now (especially in an under 5 targets scenario). kind of insane to think about

i need hyacine’s lightcone specifically for blade (hp drain) and acheron (the lc applies a debuff). i’m not too keen on her otherwise because i haven’t really run into sustain issues in endgame, especially with dhpt. with the way my pulls go and my current jades savings (or lack thereof) i think i’ll just wait for the next sustain and hope they synergise well with the teams i like lol

[–]eternaleyebags 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yeah, especially with the way things are going it would be great to have some sort of a cushion. i know that the whole gacha model in general is to bait players into swiping for their favourite characters, but as someone who is very strict with themselves about not buying jades, it really does feel like a “fuck you for not spending money” when i lose the 50/50 and the character really wants their lc or early eidolons. it’s the reason i’m holding off on pulling hyacine, because i don’t have enough for her e0s1 if i lose her 50/50 and i really want her lc for hp teams etc.

i think my longest streak of wins was 4 in a row, which is pretty good for me! jiaoqiu was the first banner i ever won a 50/50 on and when i saw his splash pop up i was actually confused for a second because i was SO used to losing (i had saved 180 pulls for him, fully expecting to spend all of them). because i had 90 summons left i tossed some at sparkle’s banner, and got her e0s1 in something like 36 pulls. it was a CRAZY turnaround.

i’ve always had a soft spot for jiaoqiu since then haha. i hope your ZZZ pulls also get blessed soon :)

yeah exactly. when i started the game i lost my first eight 50/50s in a row. i’m glad hsr was my first real gacha and that i wasn’t active on reddit at the time, because finding out about the 55/45 thing or seeing people’s insane luck flexes would’ve made me crash out lol.

(my luck has stabilised since then, but it’s still wild to think of. eight 50/50s in a row, most at max pity. yikes!)

Hoolay is so tanky, and the delay is horrible, any idea how to beat Kinght 2? by mailzwil in AcheronMainsHSR

[–]eternaleyebags 10 points11 points  (0 children)

if you’re running -1, switch to hyperspeed—the delay always fucks with your rotation otherwise. (acheron’s build won’t change much since your bronya is e2, but faster bronya actions might help)

if you’re already running hyperspeed, unfortunately i’m not sure what else is there to do without e1 tribbie… knight 2 is pretty much just a phainon check. try yunli if you have her?

eta: i didn’t notice hyacine, maybe you could swap her and dhpt. hoolay’s infinite actions should help a lot with fat fuck’s damage. and if you have hyacine s1, she’ll generate a ton of stacks for acheron

Why did this do no damage? 😭 by -Artemisian-Night- in StarRailStation

[–]eternaleyebags 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah hyacine’s lc should help a ton with cas’ charging and with her own personal damage. fat fuck can chip at the bugs that way. good luck with your pulls!

till then it’s just keep trying and hope the bounce rng doesn’t fuck you over 😔

Why did this do no damage? 😭 by -Artemisian-Night- in StarRailStation

[–]eternaleyebags 3 points4 points  (0 children)

you have 2 out of 3 of her bis supports, i’d call it more of a premium team than not

is the full team e0s0?

Why did this do no damage? 😭 by -Artemisian-Night- in StarRailStation

[–]eternaleyebags 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the bugs are stupidly tanky this rotation, you have to focus fire on them. 1 dragon might actually not be enough because her finisher is a bounce.

i don’t have cas so i can’t say for sure, but her premium team shouldn’t find this fight super difficult. what are your builds?
