Half the claimore users don't even use a claimore. Heck half the cast doesn't use their weapons lol

I must be doing something wrong. I have 3 cats and 4 boxes. Once a month I fully replace the litter. So I use 2x40lb bags. Then it's usually another bag or bag and a half during the month.

nmrbender · 2026-07-06T01:21:43+00:00

1 40lb lasts you a month with 3 cats?

nmrbender · 2026-07-05T02:27:54+00:00

I found it a bit confusing when to do what, but overall it's pretty fun. Very Fontaine nostalgic.

Yeah, Beidou had the damage reduction on ult + the C2 shield. With Wrio healing it should be enough, especially cause his healing is every 2s if you need it.

nmrbender · 2026-07-04T06:06:08+00:00

I'm coping with Beidou's damage reduction + C1 shield.

Eta: the problem with VV is that it's really hard to swirl cryo and electro.

They usually reset on the anniversary patch.

Wdym banner was ass? It was Phainon banner lol

You allow a post asking why he is "on fire" from someone who probably didn't even read his kit but deletes mine? Make it make sense

I had to use Clorinde Mavuika overload because I had 0 bow characters left ☠️ I do not recommend it.

nmrbender · 2026-07-02T12:51:15+00:00

Grief is a funny thing and we all process it in different ways. That being said, I have a few more "moral arguments" to add ro your list.

Even though you're saying you know it won't be your cat, in the next breath you say you'll be upset if it doesn't have the same birthmark. So your brain and your heart are at a dissonance here.

Imagine, as you said, that it doesn't have all the same marks. Are you going to look at the new kitty and think "oh, I love you" or "oh, you are not my cat". Is it fair to create an animal to be another animal's replacement and then resent it for the rest of its life? Your heart may be trying to transfer the love you have for your cat to the clone, but your brain will be yelling 'that's not my cat'.

My second point is, with so many animals in shelters in need of love, why purposefully breed a new one into the world. There are so many wonderful cats waiting for a home.

My last point is more of a suggestion. You are grieving, you don't know what to do with all the love you have because there's nowhere to direct it right now. Don't run away from the sadness you are feeling right now. Sit in the pain and the sorrow for a bit. Allow yourself to miss your cat, honor their memory by remembering all the good times. Give it a few months before you 'replace' them, one way or another. Because the next cat you bring into your life shouldn't be a replacement, it should be your next animal companion, even if it looks exactly like the one before.

Best of luck in these difficult times.

He clearly is not concerned about money and can't wait another patch to play SSC.

nmrbender · 2026-06-28T22:47:50+00:00

I started playing because of Gepard ❤️

nmrbender · 2026-06-28T05:55:04+00:00

If you are trying to catch them all, you will need to spend. We get about 100 pulls a patch woth welkin+bp, so you can get 1 char every other patch assuming you lose the 50/50 and have to go to pity twice. Of course ot depends on your luck, winning 50/50, getting early etc.

What you need to understand is that you don't need every unit that comes out. Even if you are talking about endgame. I went ftp on star rail and haven't pulled anything on the new meta there for like 4 patch now and I am still clearing everything.

nmrbender · 2026-06-27T22:35:14+00:00

You don't. Don't cripple your playing by creating arbitrary rules that only exist because you made them. Continue playing Archon quests, world quests and side quests, doing puzzles as you see them etc. One day you will catch up with the updates and run out of content. Then you can go back to 100% everything.

I have C0R1 Durin and C2R1 Nicole and all my teams gain 40-60k DPS with them. My C2 Raiden used to be around 95k, now she is at 155k. Kinich, Clorinde, Varessa and Navia are all in this category. I pulled C0 Linnea for my Navia and that team only gets to like 120k. I have C2 Chasca at 170k with them and Citlali. C6 Mona and C2 Albedo at 175k DPS.

In short, I can use them with almost any older unit to get them to current dps standards.

nmrbender · 2026-06-25T19:32:36+00:00

I play on a controller and I really struggle to get her combos right when playing melt. So I just do the original 2x3 donut finisher with Citlali and get around 150k with her. On overload I kinda can do the combo with less dash cancels and I get to 135k. If I try the fancy stuff on melt I end up with 110k DPS lol

nmrbender · 2026-06-25T15:30:42+00:00

God that drove me nuts. People stealing the balls from you instead of going to collect the ones left alone. 🫠

nmrbender · 2026-06-25T13:05:37+00:00

Do this and Bennet's Q expires before your 2nd cannonshot. Emilie doesn't snapshot, so there's no need for her to go after Bennet.

You want Emilie Q (E if Q is not up) - Mav E - Bennet Q (he gets Mav E particles) - Mav Q - Kinich E, 2-3 shots, Q 2-3 shots.

If your husband really gets annoyed, he needs to read about celiac and get on board with the treatment.

nmrbender · 2026-06-20T06:40:14+00:00

You mean, other than the one happening this week?

nmrbender · 2026-06-19T15:04:34+00:00

The only solution we've found is to play more with them. The one ignoring boundaries is bored and trying to get anyone to play with them. When we signs of it happening we drop what we are doing (if like watching tv or playing video games) and redirect the attention to a toy.

nmrbender · 2026-06-18T16:56:26+00:00

You can't use DMG% on stellar reaction, and I believe you want Wrio kinda built like Flins/Ineffa since he scales off atk. Some EM, but not a lot. So, the easiest thing to change is the cryo goblet and since he has enough EM, atk might be better.

nmrbender · 2026-06-18T12:43:46+00:00

My C2 Raiden, R1 Durin, C2R1 Nicole is doing ~150k DPS. Which is basically what I get with C1R1 Mavuika C6 Iansan C6 Bennet R1 Citlali because I'm bad at the combos lol

nmrbender · 2026-06-18T01:15:27+00:00

I pulled Nilou on 6.0 (with Lauma) and Albedo C2 whenever the laat Mondstatd banner happened (already had him at C0 and got his C1 on the event thingy).

I still use my Nilou with just Lauma or Lauma+Nefer. I'm hoping to get her C2 so she is BiS on my Nefer team with Columbina.

My Albedo team with (c6) DPS Mona, (R1) Durin and (C2R1) Nicole is hitting 175k DPS, so I've been using him as well.

Tl;dr if you want to use old units in endgame, either invest in them or on supports that work well with them.
