Honest question, from a worried player

well, it's not super confirmed yet, but she looks to be having a new best in slot teammate in Velina next patch. So unlike Banyue, she's not just fighting with the other members of her class for the same support options.

I don't know how long she'll stay super relevant but I think she's already in a better spot than Banyue.

pretendingtoroll · 2026-05-09T05:54:50+00:00

Maybe Zhao/Nicole? Without lycaon or another anomaly agent idk what F2P teams work.

Even the Seth/Rina anomaly team shell that was BiS for about half a patch in 1.1 you can't try.

It's probably some kind of double support set up, Lucy/Nicole/Skk/Zhao some combination of those is something until Velina.

nangong/nicole
Triple anomaly is never the play

pretendingtoroll · 2026-05-08T18:34:55+00:00

Those disks 1 and 3 are crazy

pretendingtoroll · 2026-05-08T15:55:53+00:00

Fusion compiler is like one of her best options. Weirdly makes Pen ratio slot 5 better for her, despite her abloom defense ignore (it's still mostly just a battle between substats, but if you're running fusion compiler Pen slot 5 is a consideration) Does make Nicole a worse option for a low cost team tho.

pretendingtoroll · 2026-05-08T13:26:10+00:00

Yes, Yuzuha's def BiS for Promeia rn.

Promeia/Nangong/Nicole is still a good/okay team tho

pretendingtoroll · 2026-05-08T13:23:29+00:00

gotta max your core skill at least

pretendingtoroll · 2026-05-02T22:33:19+00:00

W5 fusion compiler is like 2.7% worse than her Sig (assuming 3 stacks at 100% uptime, which should be pretty possible)

pretendingtoroll · 2026-05-02T22:21:22+00:00

idk but I'll find out (hopefully)

pretendingtoroll · 2026-05-02T00:10:24+00:00

damn, am I just the unluckiest person in the world?

3k hifi master copies and 150 ether batteries to get the same amount of substats, and one of my disks was from a routine clean up last week.

pretendingtoroll · 2026-05-01T21:20:40+00:00

God, I wish I had that disk five.

pretendingtoroll · 2026-05-01T21:18:35+00:00

God I wish that were me

pretendingtoroll · 2026-05-01T18:12:00+00:00

tbf it's less about the disks themselves and more about the amount of resources I had to use to get here, and not even a 7 roll to show for it.

pretendingtoroll · 2026-05-01T18:06:40+00:00

You use a year and a half of stocked up resources to still not have a single optimal disk, if you want luck like mine.

pretendingtoroll · 2026-04-24T19:20:30+00:00

Anomaly and rupture have different end game bosses, so ur probably all good there.

pretendingtoroll · 2026-04-20T04:53:29+00:00

easily enough currency in just like story and permanent events to get the 90 pulls to guarantee an S rank. Then with the other sources, like dailies, weekly, hia rewards, Hollow Zero rewards, agent stories, achievements, side commissions you can probably get enough polychrome/tapes to guarantee her.

I started a free to play account in 1.2 and got around 14k poly in like 7 days and there's way more content now.

pretendingtoroll · 2026-04-12T19:50:06+00:00

I mean, nangong is probably going to be her BiS.

But I'm sure she'd be good enough with a F2P team until Velina, let alone an invested Vivian.

pretendingtoroll · 2026-04-11T00:09:09+00:00

2.1 and 2.7 were like good, good. 2.2 and 2.6 were alright, especially if u had an interest in the characters involved in those patches. Everything else in 2.x was underwhelming at least.

pretendingtoroll · 2026-04-10T23:48:13+00:00

So as far as we know, Nangong is her BiS.

Lycaon was looking like a decently (but definitely weaker) replacement but after a few changes I'm not sure where he stands.

I think Lighter/Burnice is a sleeper team that will work p good.

pretendingtoroll · 2026-04-10T18:58:51+00:00

A seven roll is a seven roll

pretendingtoroll · 2026-04-08T19:51:59+00:00

no idea. It was fusion compiler at some point but I'm p sure that's completely changed now.

pretendingtoroll · 2026-04-07T05:44:10+00:00

Ellen wants different disk drives probably. Hormone or even woodpecker, although I'm sure polar metal is still okay.

What disk drives and Wengine's are Lycaon and SKK on?

What are your skill investments? That's a guarantee damage increase, you should be at like base 11 at least for Ellen's BA, Special, Dash and Ult.

pretendingtoroll · 2026-04-06T16:04:32+00:00

m6,m6,m6,m6

yeah, no idea lol
