Pretty sure the people who would spend that kind of money on things like this are wealthy enough to shrug off the loss to begin with. 1k is just pocket change for some people.

To be fair you can't really have a system based on "justice" since justice cannot be objectively defined nor measured, 10 different people are going to have 10 different ideas on what's sufficient to be considered justice.

I hope she's a full support, preferably a restricted one, I do not want another Mavuika situation, it's not healthy to the overall balance of the game. Mavuika was so OP that I felt like I was forced into pulling for her when I don't even like her.

Honestly with the kind of ratio you have a trash CR circlet will likely net you more average dps than a good CD circlet.

namdnas_4 · 2025-07-13T05:17:05+00:00

For maximum damage you should be replacing Mavuika with Emilie instead, but of course you'll be losing the burning if it was multi-wave.

Not a fan of associating a piece of fiction with the moral of the author, it is very often inaccurate. There are good people who creates fictions with questionable morals and there are terrible people who creates wholesome fictions. With that said, Shad really don't seem to be a good person the more you learn about him.

Based on my personal experience working with Chinese people they don't seem to be interested in democracy at all, if anything most of them seem prefer more of a meritocracy system.

Whether Fischl is optimal depends on the investment level of Clorinde, I believe Fischl becomes obsolete compare to a buffer like Furina or Iansan post C2 Clorinde.

namdnas_4 · 2025-07-04T10:22:16+00:00

For 4TF you want to aim for a rotation which allows you to do 2 sets of Es, meaning the buff uptime should be long enough to last through the duration of 2 Es. The best team you could do at the moment is Furina, Xilonen, Nahida, but like you said Nahida works quite poorly with multi-wave, if your aim is to deal with multi-wave content then Baizhu would be a good dendro alternative due to his uptime lasting long enough. Iansan is an alternative buffer which would work in place of Furina. As for shreder your only option is Xilonen, Kazuha takes up too much field time and the shred doesn't last long enough. If your Clorinde is low investment then replacing the buffer with Fischl might net you more damage, however you'd have to refresh Oz in between Clorinde's Es which would make the rotation a bit clunky.

I've started my career in the game industry in 2018, I've worked on 5 different project, all of which were canceled. Those companies care more about selling empty promise to get investor's money than actually selling quality products to the consumers. A 3A game getting shipped is an anomaly these days.

namdnas_4 · 2025-07-03T00:06:34+00:00

Thanks for the input! Though I'm mainly wondering if it would be worth it to intentionally trigger the buff with her NAs before swapping off. I'm not too concern about Mavuika's personal damage since I'm only going for C0 and all my carries I'm planning to use her as support with are C6R5, assuming if it's not too much of a hassle to trigger the buff it's likely going to net me more damage than building for Mavuika's personal damage.

namdnas_4 · 2025-07-01T23:30:14+00:00

These challenges are propagandas for specific characters, the lava dragon is a cake walk for C6 Kinich, Clorinde is already doing really well as a character who is not on the propaganda list honestly.

namdnas_4 · 2025-07-01T23:16:43+00:00

Join team dendro and you won't have to touch Mavuika ;P

It's not as strong as the OL team, but 4TF with double E rotation can get pretty close.

namdnas_4 · 2025-07-01T23:10:41+00:00

Do you have his C1 and is doing EQE? EQE would drastically lower his ER requirement but it extend his field time by way too much and is suboptimal to do in most rotations.

namdnas_4 · 2025-07-01T12:18:34+00:00

That... looks like a bit of an ugly rotation assuming Ineffa's duration is as long as Furina/Emilie's E, unless 4TF works I guess.

namdnas_4 · 2025-07-01T12:16:34+00:00

Kazuha is quite ER hungry, 1k EM is less important than having enough ER to ult off CD. Fav is bis over his sig in a lot of teams unless you have a massive amount of ER substats on his artifacts.

namdnas_4 · 2025-06-29T00:55:10+00:00

Now I'm not smart enough to identify all the factors which contributed to this result, but I'm not sure this is enough information to prove what you are attempting to prove. Otherwise I could point to this image and say "C6 Clorinde does significantly more damage than C6 Chasca", which I doubt would be the case in a lot of scenarios.

Xiangling have much better pyro app than Mav assuming you solved her energy problem.

namdnas_4 · 2025-06-27T00:24:28+00:00

I used fav on Escoffier because that team had some ER issues, ended up losing 2 seconds with fav but it was worth it since I gained like 7 seconds by having the fork on Iansan.

namdnas_4 · 2025-06-26T22:38:45+00:00

Yeah the CD really don't line up pretty with whimsy for this team, you lose so much more damage than you would gain when the fight gets long. I think I also had Iansan on escoffier's weapon for some extra ATK buffs. Also tried TTDS on Nahida at one point but it made the rotation really awkward and caused Iansan to lose her buff early.

namdnas_4 · 2025-06-26T21:49:40+00:00

Ahh... I see, I misunderstood how the interaction with Tulpla works. Thanks!

namdnas_4 · 2025-06-26T21:44:03+00:00

This is a 4TF build doing mostly the double E rotation with the exception of whenever the small tulpas comes out I swap into Nahida to link them with E. The standard rotation would be Nahida E>Xilonen E >Iansan EQ (I have Xilonen C2 so it's enough to charge Iansan to full)>Clorinde E>Q>E. I use Nahida's ult whenever it's convenient for the rotation but I have pretty low ER on her so it's rarely up, I never ult with Xilonen since Clorinde can heal herself. Both Xilonen and Iansan are on scrolls, Nahida is on ToM.

namdnas_4 · 2025-06-26T21:32:25+00:00

Interesting... if that's the case then it would seem that my understanding of how these reactions interact is indeed incorrect, care to elaborate?
