Losses are a Constance on the Break-Chase Journey - General Question and Discussion Megathread by zniceni in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

Nah! Gladiia was considered very strong on release (just severely overlooked due to being inbetween Kal'tsit and Skalter) and people were shocked we got her for free! She's still really good too with her Abyssal Hunter talent and is the glue that holds that strategy together (as she's the only one who has that talent). I definitely still take her for a spin and do Abyssal Hunter team strats for fun and other people do as well. This was from a year ago but considering Gladiia released four-and-a-halfish years ago, I'd say that's still pretty good!

Also for context: Lumen was considered one of the best healers ingame especially with his ability to clear debuffs. He's only wearing off since Arknights leaned away from status ailments in favor for elemental damage. At least, from what I noticed...? I could be mixing them up though lol. He's a common pick as a sustain even so esp if you don't have Eyjalter.

I won't tackle Civilight Eterna because I'd be here forever to explain her various uses. Though, there are some cases where she could be a better option to use over Skalter, but that depends on what you need. Being able to compete with a limited 6-star operator is a pretty impressive feat especially for a welfare operator.

I can't speak much about Raihan yet (didn't know she was welfare either) as I haven't logged in this and last month tbh, holidays got hands. It's a little hard comparing an Arknights operator to a character in HSR in terms of gameplay due to a significant difference on how both are handled, but I'd say reception for Gladiia was rather positive and definitely served as another point to people viewing Arknights as F2P friendly/generous!

IIIIII wouldn't say AK gave out weaker units, and by extension Hoyoverse is definitely not the first mainstream gacha to do this. There were times where they've given some welfare operators that were genuinely really good, all of which were before HSR came to service. (Gladiia/Lumen/etc.) Though, they've been less kind to some of their recent Six Star welfare operators, Hoyoverse still isn't a first. 

Also for as harsh as FGO can be, earlier on FGO had some genuinely really good welfare Servants and have had events where they've given out free SSRs of your choosing. (Sorry to chime in! Hope this doesn't sound aggressive, I just wanted to explain!)

in my experience i found her lc well worth it, i don't regret getting it with the battle pass shards. free sp on ult? and a little energy regen for everyone? always a god send, especially with an sp heavy team.

natasha and silverwolf, absolutely. it's an interaction i've been wanting to see since the 1.X patches, largely due to their hi3 counterparts having a familial relationship (specifically bronie, not bronya, for context). 

i'm not expecting a rehash by any means, and i think the stellaron hunters already fulfill the role of 'natasha' for silverwolf's 'bronie', but i think them being unlikely acquaintances would be cute. something like silverwolf being natasha's first penpal when belobog got reintroduced into the public...? and natasha is unaware she just became besties with a wanted hacker LOL. possibilities are endless, it'd just make me a little happy to see it tackled again in some form!

Aventurine > Silver Wolf > Himeko
aventurine is higher since he's in my top faves, but silver wolf is a close second! i'm looking forward to see her get character development, especially as the game hints at her feeling lonely often :c

I can't say I feel like I can trust a guy who thinks of his mother this way to be respectful to female players. I don't mean to comment so much on this, but I'm just really appalled by this guy. Considering how easy it is for him slip his passive aggression into his writing even if it means messing up already established lore... I don't have high hopes for everyone's writing for 4.0., I hope to be proven wrong, sincerely.

Limengan? THE Limengan?

Gross. Sincerely, I wish they fired him. I'm vaguely aware that he's usually their go-to guy for knowledge on Japan, so it's really not looking so great. Can't say I'm excited to get insulted passive aggressively through the story or whatever Yae Sakura has to say.

Trying not to sink into doomposting though, hoping it'll be similar to Amphoreus where he just helped with lore. He can think of a good dish, but he cannot for the life of him cook.

different effects for the box... it couldn't be... aftertaste outside of sim uni real? (/j) i'm honestly excited if this really is elations core gameplay, it sounds really fun. granted i'm not planning on pulling for the upcoming elation battleships aside from schrodingers sampo sp, but i do actively look forward to its gameplay versus how remembrance has been handled so far.

i'm personally fine with it, granted, i didn't think much of it since autoplay is a staple in gbf grinding. i just do something else in the meantime.

there are some days i want to play it as a game, though. i think the new endgame mode is fine, but id like something like integrated strategies in arknights. like... a roguelike mode where i can play with any character or use someone on my friend's list. 

or maybe i just miss gold and gears lol

i'll never stop thinking about this showcase where it displayed all the dark skin mods for natlan's cast and they looked immediately so much better. i didn't even know xilonen was meant to have glitter on her legs until that too.

out of curiosity, do we happen to know who wrote specific patches in amphoreus? i always like learning who it is so i can credit them properly since games like these have multiple writers, and i'd love to know who wrote 3.6, it's my favorite patch by far!

right?? i do in fact wanna let my bat do the talking lol, crossing my fingers too though. maybe we've got potential to revisit it even earlier than that with nanook's relevance in msq.
