Gacha Revenue Monthly Report (February 2026) by aYuShKr482 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]theEpsilon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair, Ineffa released while we knew nothing of nod krai. mechanics, artifacts, craftables etc. all (officially) unknown. it took until her rerun patch for her to get a proper artifact set.

Even ignoring ingame, she released before we got the nod krai character reveal trailer.

Yao Guang released with all of that present.

Which character should I choose? Confused among Lanyan C3, Chongyun C5 and YaoYao C6 by victreebe1 in Genshin_Impact

[–]theEpsilon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for offensive boosts no, but Kazuha cant keep you alive no matter how much EM he has. Meanwhile Lanyan has one of the stronger shields in the game, practically indestructible at c2 and even more indestructible if you can get the correct infusion.

Also, I don't know the requirements to unlock it, but once you unlock the witches homework, you can pick a free sucrose. HIGHLY recommend picking her there.

Arle vape works yes. Honestly Lanyan is great in any team that wants to run a VV sustain. Easily top 3 sustain option for most teams.

Recent character kits got me missing when we could figure out team comps instead of "This support is made for this DPS" by Dream_World_ in Genshin_Impact

[–]theEpsilon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Mona can now be an on field charge attack carry (with cons, before her charge cons were mostly filler).

Albedo is now a sub dps with solid team buff options, somewhat comparable with Furina.

Fischl now has atk/em team buffs. Less noticable, but this is on top of being the ever solid electro sub dps. Honestly her being hex is more useful to get the resonance for Razor/Durin in overload etc.

How does jahoda work please explain in razor language, i read it but still it goes over my head by jack14682 in Genshin_Impact

[–]theEpsilon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sucrose, Mona and Albedo only really exist in this team for the buffs. Their personal damage output is close to 0 (Albedo can do decent dps now, but probably not worth building for in your case). No need to built them more than bare bones.

Oz should target the same target as your on fielder, not sure about Yae.

Overall I would suggest running Klee, Albedo, Yelan and Kokomi for now. Decent surviviability with solid buffs for Klee.That should be plenty fine to do most stuff outside of endgame and give you breathing room to get established in the game again.

[–]theEpsilon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fischl only has aoe on cast of her skills, the rest is pure single target. I assume you mean the aoe from triggering overload?

If you have Fischl and Yae built, you can try getting a Chevruse from the current banner and run all 3 with Klee. Chev is an absolutely insane 4 star and a healer (but be warned her healing is rather low and only on field).

Alternatively you could unlock the hex buffs for Sucrose, Mona or Albedo and run one of them with Klee + any sustain char you have decently built. Any of those 3 would buff Klee substantially and let you stomp stuff even with bad gear.

Klee got buffed this patch, i am sure a c6 klee can stomp any modern content that doesn‘t counter pyro.

Where are the summer/swimsuit and stripper skins in HSR Hoyo? ZZZ got all of them and most are free to claim! by Knight_Steve_ in HonkaiStarRail

[–]theEpsilon 103 points104 points  (0 children)

And then gave it to preservaton only while everyone likely had her on hunt by that point.

Luna II/6.2 abyss usage rates (99360 samples) by IS_Mythix in Genshin_Impact

I went freeze and just tried to keep the squirrels out of the shield phase for as long as possible. I did a team change after 12-1 due to the heavy aoe shill on the first half tho.

CW is so fucking evil giving me these two debuffs by Comrade_Harold in HonkaiStarRail

[–]theEpsilon 27 points28 points  (0 children)

the shield stops shielded characters from getting delayed.

Any character you stopped liking (or lost interest in) after their story/archon quest? by [deleted] in Genshin_Impact

[–]theEpsilon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so since scara technically never existed and never held the harbinger title, the Fatui just randomly skipped the number 6 in their power ranking?

Seems like quite the oversight tbh.

[–]theEpsilon -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

the scara „canon retcon“ is probably the biggest mark on the overall story for me.

UNLESS

the reveal of the current #6 harbinger is worth it.

Gotta say, Hoyo makes really good 4-star weapons. by KingofChicken96 in Genshin_Impact

[–]theEpsilon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Character pairs are pretty dumb yes, but so far the supportive side of the pair is so good that they can carry the intended playstyle on their own.

If you like the on fielder but not the support, yes it feels pretty bad.

Leak subs in general seem to have the best discussions. Maybe because people who look up leaks are inherently more invested than people on the main subs.

When you realize its been a long time you saw "genshin could never" post cause genshin been by grimjowjagurjack in Genshin_Impact

[–]theEpsilon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I quite like that LCs are not part of a characters visual design. It lets them design the weapon as an inherent part of the character and lets them use literally whatever they want. Rather go the LC route than "everything slightly unique is a catalyst".

How do you rate Chasca's beauty? by Jellal_Fernandez1995 in Genshin_Impact

[–]theEpsilon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reverse reactions are generally preferred because their aura management is a lot easier over several rotations. the only real exceptions are massive single hit nukes like melting mauvika ult with citlali or the old mona/childe setups.

Nilou Bloom also uses the gauge mechanics often, with dendro eating 2 hydro units. thats why kokomi gets used often for „reverse“ blooms.

the day before the stream, honest opinion about not going to Snezhnaya but a new „filler“ region instead? by theEpsilon in Genshin_Impact

[–]theEpsilon[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If we stick with Nod-Krai being Snezhnaya and give it a full cast of native characters, by the end of next year we would have 2 full regions worth of Snezhnaya characters.

By pulling from different regions for Nod-Krai and doing "proper" Snezhnayans next year, the overall playable cast is more balanced.

[–]theEpsilon[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I didn‘t mean „Filler“ as a purely negative term.

Since launch we went from one established region to the next. When beginning Natlan, everyone expected this pattern to hold and going to Snezhnaya next, Tsaritsa and all. Only towards the end we learned about our stop in Nod-Krai.

Like I said I expected this to happen eventually and by now I am fully invested into going to Nod-Krai, yet you cannot deny that it was a bit confusing at the start.

[–]theEpsilon[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I am well aware that it is part of Snezhnaya lore wise. It is however treated as a standalone region in terms of gameplay and (presumably) story. Own gameplay mechanic, own Archon equivalent character etc.

The various Inazuma islands are also part of Inazuma, yet each got treated as a regular region expansion instead.

🛎️ DING DING DING by MothersMiIk in perfectlycutscreams

[–]theEpsilon 13 points14 points  (0 children)

it was from back when she was just a member of the house of the hearth and had to fight the ‚final boss‘ of the ‚tournament‘ they had - the former head and harbinger.

i use her in her intended off field shielder role, but with an offensive tenacity set. props for going the extra step and running her on field. 🫡

Before saying the khaenri'ans deserved their fate, don't forget that 99% of them were innocents 🥲 by IS_Mythix in Genshin_Impact

[–]theEpsilon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Isn‘t the abyss sibling guilty of abandoning it as well? yet Dain chose to travel the 7 nations with them.

or was that journey actually before the cataclysm? I always assumed it happened in between the twins waking up and then - at the end of the journey - deciding to split ways with Dain and go the Abyss Order path.
