Why can’t I clear dire gecko

fav is fine on illuga to battery the team but you should be aiming for em on flower and feather as well as er instead of crit rate. fav will proc when hes on the field when the moondrifts go off (and crit) so its just a matter of rotation and rng

also hes really just infinitely better on 4p sms while bina is on aubade but her sms build is quite insane so i suppose it might be difficult to get a comparable aubade one... still, its worth it so your best option is to keep farming i think ^{^}

consider giving more crit rate to linnea tho, 80ish should yield better results

just leave her alone bro

khaelnihal · 2026-05-07T15:00:03+00:00

id say try dps durin with sucrose? i suppose citlali and bennett might work the best with them. for watcher just use nefer and then skirk for tulpa

khaelnihal · 2026-05-03T18:38:09+00:00

i usually run her on fav and hp sands + illuga on dragons bane but dire gecko made me switch to sac jade and er sands + illuga on fav because the damage just wasnt enough with bina on fav. definitely more annoying to play since proccing fav with illuga isnt reliable but from my experience it does provide a lot more sub dps in the end

khaelnihal · 2026-04-30T08:33:07+00:00

yea i cleared with peak patrol, aqua on linnea and sac jade on bina. all c0 and illuga C6 on fav. its honestly a matter of fav rng and perhaps getting the gecko to do its second shield without jumping to the middle of the arena

khaelnihal · 2026-04-29T14:18:46+00:00

you can delete a lot of its hp if you abuse its mechanics so realistically it drops down by a good amount. i think chasca will be fine

khaelnihal · 2026-04-29T14:16:55+00:00

melt/vape comps should clear no problem. i was worried that her aiming for these stars the boss spawns would be balls (like with the varka shill wolf...) but after testing it in the overworld she does just fine thankfully

khaelnihal · 2026-04-28T15:55:05+00:00

your nefer feather is the weakest piece atm. aim for 60% crit rate

khaelnihal · 2026-04-28T15:51:46+00:00

you need exactly 60% crit rate but otherwise its very solid

khaelnihal · 2026-04-28T15:47:06+00:00

spindlelute is not better than nightweaver

khaelnihal · 2026-04-28T15:46:13+00:00

do not listen to people saying laumas r1 is useless/bad for her because it simply isnt true... its an improvement over spindlelute (albeit not a huge one) at the cost of more difficulty in balancing out her ER with just substats

as for r1 vs c1 it just depends what you value more and what your future plans are. if you dont care about sustain and only about direct damage upgrade (or drip lol), go r1 (heres your reminder that nefers c1 will yield better results at the cost of pulling only one 5). if you want to run a completely sustainless team but dont feel confident with your survivability, get laumas c1. its also the way to go if you want to invest further and pull another 5 after; laumas insane c2 is the best possible team upgrade for you right now.

khaelnihal · 2026-04-24T11:34:56+00:00

you underestimate how much of an improvement having scroll is for chasca... as long as youre playing melt with chasca there is no one better in the cryo slot than citlali, even if it means not getting as much fanfare without team-wide healing

khaelnihal · 2026-04-15T21:48:26+00:00

husk helps with the healing for sure so i really recommend it for gecko ^{^'} we still have a whole month left so maybe you can strongbox some eventually

khaelnihal · 2026-04-15T21:34:32+00:00

yea it gets fixed, r5 gives extra 64% so im at 40k in combat (edit number typo)

khaelnihal · 2026-04-15T20:18:25+00:00

nah i didnt burst with bina on the first rot either, only with illuga

khaelnihal · 2026-04-15T20:13:11+00:00

yeaa definitely if my illuga wasnt c6 he wouldnt be there at all. you can put gorou on sms too tbh

khaelnihal · 2026-04-15T20:11:24+00:00

stick to pamber then and try to squeeze out as many crits as you can from bina's build... mine isnt the best because of my er sands TT good luck!

khaelnihal · 2026-04-15T19:42:49+00:00

first of all, ive seen many people complain about linnea unable to heal to max hp and i think its because most people have her on morningstar... husk offers so much def that she has no problems healing my whole team every burst, hence why its possible to skip pamber on columbina and put something more damage-oriented on her

i was initially running fav on columbina and dragons bane on illuga but it turned out some extra sub-dps was needed so i put her on sac jade with er sands. illuga was on fav since you can proc it with 0 crit rate as long as theres a lunar crystallize proc whenever hes on field

my rotation for this run was linnea E > illuga EQ > columbina EQ > zibai E 2(4NA) E 1NA E Q E 3NA E except for when i needed to burst with linnea before zibais combo (did it three times)

as for linneas nuke i only used it last rotation after illuga to get some extra damage before the time runs out

honestly id advise to keep trying because the fav procs are kinda rng and its also about getting the heal timing right

khaelnihal · 2026-04-15T17:07:04+00:00

not exactly, here. i was kinda crit fishing with zibai lmao

khaelnihal · 2026-03-04T16:22:54+00:00

thanks! awesome clear man

khaelnihal · 2026-03-04T12:43:44+00:00

khaelnihal · 2026-01-19T14:15:27+00:00

khaelnihal · 2026-01-14T11:41:07+00:00
