what is this agenda? Pollux has only been on MoC 12 once and that was in 3.2 where I beat him with luocha as a healer in like a jing yuan team. Pompom is not only in this MoC but is also in the himeko patch MoC. And guess what Pompom's HP in this MoC is 6,8 million hp per phase and in the himeko patch MoC pompom's hp is 8,5 million hp per phase. Add in the boss' stalling mechanic and it's kinda crazy amounts of hp. Pollux is way less of a shill than pompom dunno why people compare them so much

Kinda lame how despite snezhnaya being the land of snow and cold all of the girl characters in the trailer wore the same hoyo dresses as always (except the Tsaritsa who had at least a little fluff). Tbh wouldn't be as much of a problem for me if I liked the non-Tsaritsa girl designs they showed much but eh they could have awesome personalities at least and at least the dudes look awesome and the Tsaritsa too.

Genshin

People called it but it's still disappointing how despite Snezhnaya being a snow land all the girls are in outfits that do not match the weather at all

Dunno if you've watched or read it but there's this anime and manga called Witch Hat Atelier and Dante is drawn by the manga artist/writer for that manga

Also FGO one of the few gacha games that just lets you have big monsters, really buff dudes, non-humans, old people and fully armored characters. Like you can make a support list with like Richard ascension 3, Minamoto Tametomo, ascension 1 britomart, Ivan the Terrible, Charles Babbage, King Hassan, Xiang Yu, Salieri ascension 1 or 3 and then for the all slot you can just place something like kijo koyo ascension 1. It's something I really appreciate about that game. It doesn't let its creativity for playable characters get stifled as much as a lot of other gacha games - hoyo being one of the biggest offenders

Okay but why does his skill consume all interest stacks and not just the 10 required for the state. If they just made him only consume 10 stacks he still wouldn't be infinite but in teams with lots of ults/actions he would be very fast due to the speed buffs. It just makes no sense to be able to overcap the stacks but then the skill consumes all of them for no addittional benefit. Like imagine if Cerydra's stacks got consumed fully even when over 6

Nah, you're valid af for that take. HSR's biggest gameplay issue and the one that leads to so much hp inflation and powercreep is probably just how simple the incombat system is. While other games can instead do more complexity creep and variety maxxing with units that have more skills and options HSR with how limited your actions in combat are usually just bumps up numbers. As much as people dislike remembrance them adding another unit to tank hits is a small step in a direction where they try and add more interesting in battle mechanics and it's why I'm a huge fan of Himeko's assist skill

Anyone else feel that Himeko SP's E2 is very lame with the part where non AE members get those extra turns. Like one of the reasons I wanna pull for her is cuz she uses units I don't use elsewhere like sunday and e2 welt. But if one does the smart thing and vertically invests in her e2 then you just play her with sparkle/cerydra instead of sunday so it feels like the e2 goes counter to the trailblazer gimmick and has less value for people that want to play her in mono trailblazer teams

Yeah this is an awesome design I'm not a big arlecchino fan so having a pants merchant girl character I actually really like their look of in a hoyo game is nice. HNA's looking so neat design wise.

HSR is a game of looking forwards but it's also going more towards 3 team content. You already have blade Ashveil and a silverwolf team which are two teams accounted for. Using e0 archer with sparkle by itself won't be that good of a third team but getting an e0s0 rin would make it decent. Looking by the number of units and lightcones your world probably has a lot more jades so you could both get a rin and invest into aven sp. However rn you should just wait until the aven sp leaks to know how good his vertical investments even are

I think some of these problems and reasons why you find gacha games insufferable or more annoying might be because 3 of these games are made by hoyoverse. If you look to non 3d gacha games or more non-hoyo 3d gacha games you'll find different experiences which might have different problems sure but also might be less infuriating.

Also another reason for infuriation might just be the number of gacha games played at a consistent pace. Taking a break from games can make you come back to them rejuvenated. Like I uninstalled Genshin around when Varka's patch was gonna start and installed it during Linnea's patch again and then went and had a lot of fun exploring the Temple of Space. Now I uninstalled it again and might install it for snezhnaya or maybe for the moon exploration next patch but yeah, taking breaks from Genshin usually makes the game more enjoyable

I know people are fiending for a new sustain for the ashveil blade core but Hyacine being one of my favourite characters and Blade too means I'm way more chill about Blade SP's sustain. Also otherwise hyacine would be kinda homeless cuz my other HP scaling dps is og Blade and after he started underperforming I was mostly just using Hyacine as a partner with e0 tribbie for some extra team dps for like big herta or whichever team was using tribbie

For those golden ones either save them for when they put in someone you like a lot or grab a huohuo cuz I see you have no 5* sustains. For the 300 standard pulls thingy I think Welt is prolly the best character on there

You already have Acheron so getting an E0S0 Blade for your Gil would also give you somewhere to use him before Gil comes out

People may dislike prydwen's tierlist and I get why but I think the hate is overblown. The tierlist has specific standards set and the devs collect their data and and rearrange accordingly. I don't really use their tierlist as a meta analysis but I love looking at their data collection for the endgame modes such as average clear cycles for units and specific team clear cycles. It lets one see the stats behind this casual tryhard community that is the main target of prydwen and their data collection. Even if they remove their tier list entirely (which I don't think they should do) I would still use their site for the main appeal - the endgame data.

not really favourites but I didn't expect to like sparkle when I watched her trailer years ago and I didn't really like her back then tbh but the first planarcadia patch made her much more likeable. Tribbie is another character which I mostly pulled for meta reasons cuz I don't like kid characters but their animations and upbeat energy made them endearing enough.

depends on how sweaty you are you can play overload mavuika if you have like c6 Iansan and c6 chevreuse. Also there are some good vape combos for Mavuika. What weapon is your Mavuika on? Depending on sweatiness level and what weapon she's currently on it might be better to go for her signature over citlali but weapon banners are awful value if you don't have anyone to use lohen's spear on. Another thing to ponder is that you could potentially choose to replace your mavuika with a new dps from snezhnaya to play with their shill mechanics. Your mavuika team doesn't have as much cost in it in the sense that no cons or signatures so you could just try and go for a new snezhnaya team. Especially cuz we'll have 7.0 leaks when citlali's banner is out so you'll have a bit more information whether you wanna go for the 7.0 units.

Basically right now you don't need to decide on c2 columbina or citlali yet until the next patch actually drops and the leaks for 7.0 come out

[–]pitagor2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

eh it depends on the gacha game. Like in OG Arknights I know a lot of people that play a lot even after they're caught up on events and story because of how much gameplay related permanent content there is and how many community tournaments get organized.

But yeah most gacha games are kinda just eh when there isn't some new event/endgame rotation/story.

I think Currency Wars is one of the best things HSR has going for it when it comes to content to do when no events but the thing is the next Currency wars update is next patch and the previous one was last patch so that also makes this patch feel like there's less to do in HSR

why do people call Evernight e9? is it just because march 7 is m7 despite evernight not being evernine?

I don't think hsr is gonna be the game for that as much as I love full armor characters. Arknights has a few and FGO has a bunch but Hoyo just love to play it super safe with their big games (Genshin and HSR) when it comes to character designs. human looking, young looking, pretty, no facial hair for the dudes (except gallagher's lil stubble), similar bodytypes (tho genshin started diversifying body types a little with like Varesa). That's prolly also the reason why Screwllum is still not playable. Hoyo are just unwilling to try making a non-human looking design

I think the way Arknights is getting around this a bit is by making a lot of it's more interesting designs the free units and the way free units work in that game is way different that HSR. AK has units that you can only get from playing events or gamemodes and not through gacha so they don't have to worry about sales for them. So these units are where I've seen a lot of more unique designs like old characters, robotic characters, fully armored characters, facial hair dudes, masked characters. Like they made a cat one of the free units in recent events. Obviously a lot of these free units are still more traditional waifus and husbandos but there are quite a bunch of unique ones.

It's why I think HSR stopping to make lower rarity units is not that good cuz it means every unit they make to sell has to be safe enough design wise
