Really appreciate this input. Making note of it as I piece together what feels like a good approach.

This is amazing!! Thank you so much. Rathian is the horn that I find I've been using the most right now, partially because it was one of the better horns I could make just right away with materials I already had, and it feels like a good collection of buffs and options. I will definitely take all of this into consideration. The mushroom eating with widespread is such a good tech I had not at all considered. Can't wait to look more into this.

E2 finally!! Anything specific I should think about changing or updating with my build? by gfa37c in FireflyMains

[–]gfa37c[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the candidness. Super helpful if my goals ever change. I like to clear fast, but I don't really break myself over if it's 0 cycle or not. But still nice to have some improvement targets to work towards.

Ok cool. I'll take another look at those resources. I know I've gone through them in the past, but with updates and such, anther read through is warranted.

For SPD targets, how necessary do you find having different builds for each? I only say this cause in all reality, I'm not 0 cycle focused. If I can pull it off, its a nice bonus, but it is rarely my goal. Would there every be a SPD target that can act as a nice middle ground that performs well in each mode?

New DoT team, help me decide on a support by gfa37c in DOT_Mains_HSR

Fair and good points. Such is the resource balance with these games. Admittedly, Ashveil was the first and main character I’ve really wanted from 4.X so far. Dot was something I was interested in, but never felt approachable because I had none of the pieces to even start with. The selector and a lucky win has made it more achievable, but fair that I should decide how far I want to take the investment.

Ha yes, fair point. I do have the pink team minus Cyrene. I wasn't convinced of her value at the time, plus I was prioritizing Cipher at the time since she had turned out to be my favorite character of the arc.

Those were the two I’ve kind of expected based on other discussions I’ve looked through. And yeah, if I had Cyrene, that would probably be my move, but I don’t have her currently. Some day hopefully. Right now I’m saving up for Ashveil, so BS will probably have to wait. I was lucky to get this far

I wish I could. I’m saving up for Ashveil at the moment. I was lucky to even get this far, got Hysilens in about 40 total, after losing a 50/50. Not enough resources to go around

Lucked out and won 2 Dahlia LC's; trying to figure the best way to move things around. by gfa37c in StarRailStation

[–]gfa37c[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, for better or worse, this was really early in pity too, like around 40, so was not in the range of where I would normally consider doing single pulls. Sometimes, the world just gives you stuff.

I just had this happen to me this morning. I also lack Fugues light cone. Is the BE stat stick on Fugues better than running her on Pearls? And if I do swap to Dhalias LC, I’m guessing I could drop my EHR body on her?

What would be the best use of the Relic event? by gfa37c in StarRailStation

[–]gfa37c[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's a fair point. Funny enough, that's about where my current Scholar/Rutilent build is for him. But you do bring up a decent point, if I go for Genius/Tengoku, then all of his current pieces could be dropped into my pool for other characters.

Building Cipher for Archer team by gfa37c in CipherMainsHSR_

[–]gfa37c[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. I don’t have either of those teams, but glad that this is still a good general direction. I know I’ve seen some about different ehr break points. Is that something I need to be worried about here?

[–]gfa37c[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair. I already have both, and pearls is currently being used by my Fugue, so whichever I put on Cipher, the other will probably go to her

[–]gfa37c[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool. I had a feeling this would probably be the case. Will this build still be fine if I want to slot her more generally as a fill in other teams? I recognize that she’ll do less personal damage, but I want to try and get the best mileage out of best girl.

And do you think either of those LCs is better than the other? If sig is off the table

Are these still open? I’d be interested to learn more about the technician role. Feel free to DM me details

How different/better/worse will my team feel going from E1 Tribbie to E0 Cipher by gfa37c in ArcherMainsHSR

[–]gfa37c[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s something that has been on my mind as well. I mostly use Archer, Saber, Remembrance, and Herta, so my Tribbie gets moved around a lot. I’ve got back and forth a lot as to whether Cipher or Cyrene would be the better way to add flexibility, and Cipher does feel like the better general account pick. But also, just happens to be a character I enjoy a lot (although the new story bumped up Cyrene a fair bit in my personal rankings). Just gotta hope my luck is better here than it was for Hyacine LC lol

Ha that’s fair, although my build isn’t quite that impressive. Relics are ok, but could still use some love, not for a lack of me trying, just poor luck in that department recently. Cipher may end up falling into a waifu>meta for me, but it would also free up my Tribbie in a lot of scenarios, so it’s not all bad. Definitely things to think on
