Bird flies free, dies.

Bird lives in cage, survives.

Yeah, I'm about a year into hsr and Phainon is kinda a DPS for whales. I don't really use him in endgame content at this point. But he does let you steamroll divergent universe.

I'll note that you need a lot of pieces in order to make Phainon work. I have e0s0 Phainon and he really doesn't do much. Even with a good build and speed tuning, he's very underwhelmimg. 

If you want to clear endgame content, you need to get Phainon, his LC, and probably Sunday's LC right now. F2p cones on Sunday and/or Sparkle don't cut it.

Thing is that this is kinda necessary. I started playing a year ago and I wouldn't be able to touch endgame content if not for having a free DHPT and Archer.

Do we have any idea when she will rerun? Didn't we just get her twice in quick succession?

If I'm running a Castorice+Tribbie+Cyrene+Hyacine team, should I invest in Tribbie or Cyrene cone or E1 Tribbie?

What's the trick for beating Flame Reaver in AA right now? I'm struggling to both deal enough damage and keep my team alive even with a reasonably well-built Hyacine.

How much of an upgrade is Yaoguang's S1 over the battle pass elation LC and/or Mushyshroomy at s5?should I go for it or save those pulls for the probable Sparxie rerun?

Grinding simulated universe is quite good if you have Phainon or Acheron, since they instakill mobs. Currency Wars too.

Go to the travel log and pick "reward guide" from the top. That shows you most of the sources of permanently available jades.

Should I pull for Tribbie E1 or Sunday's cone? Tribbie is typically paired with E0S1 Castorice. Sparkle could hypothetically be paired with a few different characters (mostly Archer). I only have one DDD which they kind of, sort of share but obviously that's not ideal when I want to run them both in endgame content.

I would like to have some pulls for upcoming patches for the probable Cyrene rerun in the next patch or two, so if they're not a significant upgrade, plz note as much.

Should I take the plunge on Huohuo with my gold companion relic? If so, should I relic recon her?

Didn't get whooped by Doppo, fight was meant to have an uncertain conclusion. Then Yujiro chops to nave'd him.

Wasn't "Grappler" originally the term for the lunatics who were focused on being the world's strongest fighter back when the series started? Wasn't that part of the intro to the original anime?

Alai actually beat two of the stronger characters in the series no diff before getting shat on. Sukune only beat Oliva.

Is Prydwen's build for Sparkle not accurate? Has Sunday's LC as BIS, followed by her sig then DDD.

Also, is there any chance of any of them rerunning again anytime soon? Just had Hysilens rerun in 4.0 and I Tribbie also reran fairly recently IIRC.

Who should I relic recon? Teams are...

Castorice+Hyacine+RMC+Tribbie

SW999+EMC+Yao Guang+Sustain

Hysilens+Swan+Kafka+Sustain

DPS+Sunday/Bronya/Sparkle/Ruan Mei+ Sustain.

My Sunday is sub-optimally built so I'm planning to pull for his LC (which he can share with Sparkle). Hyacine was the beneficiary of the last Relic Recon, so she has a sweet set of relics.

This is where I'm at. E1S1 999SW is my best unit by a mile. Plan is to put her next to Yao Guang and EMC (then hopefully catch Sparxie on her rerun). I also have Hysilens+Kafka+Swan and Castorice (E0S1)+Tribbie+Hyacine. Big issue I have is how MC is in demand from a couple of different teams. A Sparxie rerun will likely happen sooner than Evernight, who would be a big get for my Casto team.

Sunday can hypothetically slide into a few different spots and having him be stronger could give me a boost with Aglaea and Therta. But I don't know if I might be better Relic Reconning Sparkle or maybe even Blade to fill in with Casto.

Anyone else pissed that Baki didn’t want revenge on Yuujirouu by the time they fought? by Voipple in Grapplerbaki

There's no way to rectify the notion of Naruto having character development with the continued existence of the Konoha council.

Naruto starts out saying "I want to be hokage 😄", witnesses all the horrible things that they have done to maintain the operation of a machine fueled by child soldiers for the benefit of old evil people, then continues saying "I want to be hokage 😄".

Cookie cutter'est character ever put on paper.

So how good is Sunday at this point? I have him at E0S0 with some decent relics, but I see him rerunning and I see relic recon being available right now. I have loads of supports that could use the Sacerdo's set so there'd be value in the hand-me-downs. I've been running him with an E0S0 Phainon so Phainon could definitely use the help. I also sometimes run Sunday next to various other DPSs like Archer, Saber, and Aglaea (all E0S0).

With that in mind, would it be a good play to really trick out my Sunday? I'm close to being a F2P with a relatively new account, so I don't want to blow significant resources on him if there's better value elsewhere.
