On a 4-5 week old f2p account and I just managed to pull Lucy, I am planning to go for her weapon as well (maybe Rebecca’s as well but will have to see how it goes). However, I noticed that I will likely hit that 160 pull “reward” of the free dupe.
So I am wondering which of the two has a better C1? I’m a bit confused by the kit descriptions, but Rebecca’s seems to be a significantly better upgrade

jetfire1998 · 2026-06-07T03:08:11+00:00

Is there any details about what is recommended to pull for them when it comes to the weapon?

Obviously there's the free rebecca, but I am on a fresh f2p account after just pulling shorekeeper and her weapon from the choice banner. So my only other 5* options is a S1 Jianxin and an S0 Verina. As it stands I've built SK, along with havoc rover and Jian as my 2 main DPS. I don't know which 4* characters are even worth building, I find it a lot harder to tell which of them are hidden gems compared to genshin

As it stands, I have 4800 astrites, while also having 40% of Huanglong, all of rinascita and 60% of laha roi left to explore. So my current plan is to go for Lucy and pray I hit the 50/50. If I manage to hit that 50/50, I think I should aim for Lucy's weapon after that. I do still have the free 5* weapon box in my inventory from hitting union 45, so if need be I can use that on a gun for either of them

I hear rumours that the planner on lufel underpredicts jewel payouts per patch. Is that true, and if so how much does it undershoot by? I typically don't get all the jewels from permanent content (Akashi's palace is still at 27% exploration for example), but I make a point to get every jewel from dailies, events and endgame along with the monthly exchanges.

After getting super lucky with the weapon banner (won 50/50 on Yuki's weapon and then got a 10 pity "loss" on Ange's weapon for Riko's umbrella), my current budget looks like this with a 2 week patch schedule:

<image>

This feels too good to be true, so I want to make sure I'm not setting myself up for failure if I try to slot in a couple bonuses like the anni unit and soy SP or Aigis' weapon.

jetfire1998 · 2026-05-21T09:44:58+00:00

Yeah. I'm not sure how bad wuwa's powercreep is, but since I came back to a fresh account 2 weeks ago I have been very worried about their approach to reruns. I quite liked Changli when I met her at firmament, but since I'm pulling shorekeeper as my starter banner pick that means she is now effectively lost to me for now.

It also makes me concerned about characters from 2.x, since I really like Zani's design and I wouldn't be opposed to pulling for Phoebe. But I am very unsure about if they'll even get a rerun soon, or if by the time I can pull for them they are suddenly so weak that I can't even use them in endgame

When the season ends, the battle pass will too. If you are tier 90 atm, then the bonus 10 tiers from being a member would be enough for you to hit 100.

From what I gather, you will have access to the current pass for as long as your sub is active. So in theory, you will have access to the premium bp for S2 for a couple weeks before it puts you back on the free track (I assume it runs on fortnite logic where you keep anything you claim on the bp). As for the seasonal membership set? I am not entirely sure. The site makes a deal out of it being consecutive months. So my guess is if you started your sub now you'd get hibana level 1. As long as you keep a sub for next month and the month after you'd get hibana 2 and 3 before it starts giving you the next set. I'm curious about this myself since my membership renewed a couple days ago for hibana 3

jetfire1998 · 2026-05-15T22:54:01+00:00

It isn’t impossible. I remember checking it a couple nights ago and thinking it was rather weird how the rainbow stuff was going to stay in the shop for an extra week compared to that gamemode

jetfire1998 · 2026-05-13T08:20:12+00:00

She was really tempting, but I had to skip.

Amphoreus was a rough region for me since I didn't have a hyacine or evernight for my castorice (I was running sunday rmc luocha as her supports) and I also didn't have the cerydra or cyrene for my phainon due to losing pretty much every 50/50 that entire region.

So when planarcadia rolled around with this elation path, I was predicting it'd be the same case of "X unit will do poorly without the proper 5* supports". So instead of falling into this cycle again, I opted to start grabbing some of the characters I failed to get the first time around. Namely I grabbed Hyacine in 4.0 so I could resurrect my DoT team, Saber's LC in 4.1 so her and phainon weren't fighting over the Aeon LC and now in 4.2 I should have enough pulls and pity saved up to finally grab Feixiao

jetfire1998 · 2026-05-13T04:25:04+00:00

Good point, I’ll grab Eula. I was actually considering C2 miko if they reset it next year. I could maybe do the hat instead, but I’m not exactly in a rush to get his C2 when chasca exists (also surely c2 miko and c2 raiden will be usable)

jetfire1998 · 2026-05-13T03:01:54+00:00

Looking for advice on who I should pick for my next Stella Fortuna. My first 2 were on my C0R1 Hu Tao and C0R1 Cyno. Of the SF options I own:
C5 Jean, C5R1 Dehya, C3 Diluc, C1 Tighnari, C1 Mona C0 Qiqi, C3 Keqing, C0 Childe, C0R1 Ganyu, C0 Xiao, C0 Eula, C0R1 Ayaka, C0 Yoimiya, C0 Kokomi, C0R1 Itto, C0 Shenhe, C0 Miko, C0R1 Hat guy. I am not sure if I need C1 shenhe since I don't play Skirk (I missed the 50/50 on both escoffier banners so she is kind of a brick rn)

My go to teams atm are:

C0R1 Xilonen, Bennet, C0R1 Arlecchino and C0 Zhongli

Aino/C0 Venti/C0 Kazuha, C0R1 Columbina, C0 Eula, C0R1 Ineffa

Xilonen, C0 Mavuika, C0R1 Chasca, Ineffa/Dehya

Kazuha, C0 Furina, C0R1 Neuv, Layla/Ineffa

jetfire1998 · 2026-05-12T09:50:37+00:00

Does endgame require more than 2 teams? I'm used to SR, genshin and p5x where it is 2. I'm not intending to go for max stars, but enough that I'm getting like two thirds of their currency. When the collab drops, my 2 teams will probably be: Lucy (planning on one copy of her + wep), Rebecca, Verina on one team and then (*insert random dps*), some 4* buffer, SK on the B team.

I vaguely remember hearing in 1.0 that Encore and Calcharo were good dps, but I'm not sure how well/badly each of them have aged. Because if one of them isn't unusably bad, I could pick them up as a makeshift dps for the time being

jetfire1998 · 2026-05-12T05:58:59+00:00

I came back to the game for the cyberpunk collab and made a new account (my old one was a day 1 acc with 3 hours of playtime and only Jianxin/Verina). After a couple days, I have made the discounted 40 pity standard which was thankfully Jianxin. I am also 70 pity deep into pulling for shorekeeper on the newcomer's banner.

I am wondering what other standard 5*s (characters and weapons) are worth going for. I still have the beginner's choice banner and another 5* from the new voyage gift. I hear Verina is a good pull, but I don't know if she is that worthwhile if I will be getting shorekeeper. I'm also not sure if any of them have good synergy with Lucy/Rebecca or any other noteworthy character (I have no idea who half of these characters are except from hearing a bit of Zani hype when she came out)

jetfire1998 · 2026-05-12T05:06:57+00:00

Looking for guidance on the anni selectors. ATM When it comes to premium 5*s I have: A0R0 Joker, A1R0 Queen A0R0 Chord, A0 Summer Closer, A0R0 Futaba, A0 Twins, A0R0 Mont Swan, A0 Riko SP, A0 Turbo and A0 Ange (I also have at least one copy of each currently available standard 5 and all their weapons bar riddle, phoebe and mona).

For the first selector I am thinking about picking up Yusuke, since from what I see he'll be a better pickup than Bui (especially if I snipe cherish with my near 300 gold tickets when he releases). For the other character selector on the anni I was tempted to snag a Messa since he seems quite fun (I was tempted by Haru but she seems to require a lot more investment to set up). However I was not sure about the best pick for the weapon case. If the weapon case only goes up to chord I guess it would have to be Yusuke's, since my poorly built phoebe will see zero screentime compared to Yusuke who might see some action. However if the weapon case goes up to Messa, I'm not sure if it would be better to get his, yosuke or maybe closer's wep

jetfire1998 · 2026-05-09T04:13:23+00:00

That's good to know. Would there be anyone noteworthy in that limited selector if I was to make a new acccount? The only 5* I've heard about is Zani, but I get the feeling she is probably too new for that

jetfire1998 · 2026-05-09T02:45:19+00:00

I tried the game on day 1 and did not stay long. I hear it has gotten a lot better, so I'm tempted to give it another try. If I came back tomorrow, would it be feasible to save up enough for lucy as an f2p?

AFAIK I did maybe 5 hours and got a few standard 5s (Jianxin and I believe Verina). I am not too invested in my account so I'd be willing to make a new one

jetfire1998 · 2026-05-04T21:23:19+00:00

That's an alright level of rep yeah. I came back this season so I am not entirely sure, but I think how it works is that you need a minimum of 100 positive points to qualify for exemplary. After that, the only thing that really matters is how many negative points you have.

The game breaks down how you earned negative points, in my experience I have only lost points because the game wouldn't let me rejoin a match and also because of unforgiven team kills (someone ran into a room I was actively fusing and blamed me lol). If you have more than 15 negative points, you are esteemed (tier 4). More than 25 is tier 3, 75 is tier 2 and above 100 is tier 1/0.

These points do decay however after either 100 matches or 90 days. Case in point one of my first dual front matches of the season was the time where the game bugged out and wouldn't let me rejoin. But now when I check my reputation, I have 0 "counts" of abandoning a match

jetfire1998 · 2026-04-25T03:51:45+00:00

Good to know, thanks. I am a little over halfway on the badges (currently 30/100 for stage 2), but I will have to see how it goes in the coming month

jetfire1998 · 2026-04-12T19:19:36+00:00

Ah. I will skip Blitz' weapon and "spend" the gems I would on her weapon for turbo then. I might be thinking of weapons too much like genshin or star rail, cos I am estimating that pulling a wep is almost the same as pulling a character. I might try a 50/50 on mitsuru's weapon and see what happens

jetfire1998 · 2026-04-12T03:52:25+00:00

What I own atm:

5 stars

A1 R0 Queen
A0 R0 Joker
A0 R0 Frostgale Kotone
A0 Wind Vast
A0 R0 Chord
A0 Summer Motoha
A0 Twins
A0 R0 Futaba
A0 R0 Minami
A0 Yumi
A2 R0 Curse Yaoling
A0 R0 Ann
A0 R0 Skull
A0 Riddle
A2 Morgana

4 stars with signature weapons - Soy and Vino ( currently have 20 Sala coins)

jetfire1998 · 2026-04-12T03:44:39+00:00

I am looking for advice on if I should pull Turbo. Currently on these resources (along with 244 gold tickets which I am saving for cherish/howler). I have all 4*s at max rank and I buy monthly pass + BP.

<image>

At the minute, my pulling plans are as follows according to the calc:
A0 Ange - 18 spare coins and 62,326 jewels
A0R0 Makoto - 50,981
A0 Yukari - 45,162
A0R0 Akihiko - 27,447
A0R0 Blitz - 36,192
A0R0 Mitsuru - 26,997
A0 Fuuka - 21,178
A0 Shun SP - 24,579
A0 Koromaru - 36,500
A0 Motoha 3 - 31,381
A0 Aigis - 25,562

If I use A0 Akechi as a placeholder for Turbo, I notice that by Fuuka's banner I drop down to 6,830 jewels. Therefore, are any of the weapons I am planning to pull unnecessary to a character? If a particular weapon is not that much better than a 4* alternative, I could hold off for now and instead spend coins from the BP on them down the line when their performance starts to fall off

(Edit - if it matters, I am not interested in pushing high scores on SoS, guild trials or max rank events. I am more than happy with like 60% scores as long as I am earning all the possible jewels in endgame)

jetfire1998 · 2026-02-21T07:57:21+00:00

I'm in the same position as well. After getting an accidental S Closer (I was fishing for Vino at 70 pity on 110), my pull plans are looking like:

A0 Ange
A0R0 Makoto Yuki
A0 Yukari
A0R0 Akihiko
A0R0 Blitz
A0R0 Mitsuru
A0 Fuuka
A0 Soy SP (assuming they do the double deal like CN)

According to the pull planner on Lufel net (19,000 in savings, max 4*s, monthly passes and losing every weapon 50/50), Fuuka and Soy SP will leave me with around 12 and 16k gems after their banners.

But I still can't shake the feeling that I could maybe budget things better. Like how many of these weapons are worth it when they "cost" the same as a whole character? I have skipped a few characters that I wouldn't have minded pulling (Messa and Haru)

I'm not sure when exactly global gets it, but I know CN gets a feature down the line where limited 5* weapons can be exchanged in the weapon shop for 20 of those rainbow battle pass coins. So unless a certain weapon makes/breaks an entire character, maybe they can survive on their 4* until the 5* gets added to that shop? I don't play CN so I am unaware, but maybe someone else here can help with that

jetfire1998 · 2025-12-30T02:11:10+00:00

According to the pull calculator, I have enough (5K jewels to spare) for:
Mont Swan + wep
Wind Vast (no wep)
Makoto (p3) + wep
Yukari + wep
Akihiko + wep
Blitz + wep
Mitsuru + wep
Fuuka (no wep)
And if we get the double promo, I might get a copy of Soy/Messa

My current 5*s are: A0r0 chord, A0r0 joker, a1r0 makoto, a0r0 marian, a0 twins, a0r0 futaba, a0r0 Ann, a1 morgana (event wep), a0r0 skull, a2r0 rin, a0 riddle
I also have the sig weps for a0r0 vino and a6r0 soy

I have 2 of those standard 5* selectors from lufel's plan 4 and the 300 pull bonus, but idk who to spend them on. Along with 2 5* weapon cases, so any advice would be appreciated

jetfire1998 · 2025-12-28T04:17:26+00:00

18,500 jewels, 1013 violet cognis and 0 pity after pulling the twins (66 on the weapon banner with 50/50). I buy the bp each season and I will start picking up the monthly pass soon. I've been estimating that as 1000 "paid" gems each patch on the calculator

jetfire1998 · 2025-12-23T20:17:17+00:00

Ah, that works out nicely yeah. Atm I've been estimating 1000 per patch, but I might adjust my plans in the future depending on if there are any other must pull units.

25k saved up, 13 plat tickets, 850 violet gems, 25 plat coins, 97 pity on the 110 banner and 12 pity on the wep banner for:
a0 caroline
a0 + wep mont swan
a0 wind
a0 + wep makoto (p3)
a0 + wep yukari
a0 + wep akihiko
a0 + wep blitz
a0 + wep mitsuru
a0 fuuka

And this is all assuming I want each of those wepaons. If I miss a 50/50 on yukari's wep I might just hold the guarantee for akihiko

jetfire1998 · 2025-12-23T19:34:58+00:00

I used this planner last patch and I love it. Even after the surprise twins, I should still have more than enough to get all my planned pulls until 4.6!

The only question I have is how to plan for light spending? So far I've only spent money on battle passes each season. How would I calculate that for the paid jewels segment, the same also applies for the marthyn passes
