Jingliu summon splash art leaked which is bad, because I assume that means she's sooner rather than later.

An extra surprise at TB50, at least for me: you need Echo of War materials to level traces past 7. Not that I mind, that just means the uberwhales are time-gated too!

Huh. Had been having a bit of trouble with simulated universe lately, but did the newly unlocked world 5 while 10 levels beneath the boss just for the heck of it and did it first try. Mainly because I decided to try out March 7 in here for the first time where she is apparently utterly broken, at least for the stage of the game I'm at. Her chance to freeze combined with some of the freeze synergy blessings and I was able to keep enemies frozen basically indefinitely and didn't really even break a sweat.

As far as I'm aware the only thing you'd miss out on if you don't do the 8-round missions is the Credits. Which you might care about, but I just didn't bother unless I happened to get it first try.

Yeah and that's a whole day's worth of energy per character, or 3 of the booster items.

I didn't farm these beforehand because the drop rate improves, but maybe I should have because it's a bit of a speed bump in my farming.

I think that's pretty typical. I've yet to play a game with a battlepass that was all that strict.

Also it's a pretty bland battlepass, so probably figured people wouldn't be so eager with it. Hopefully they actually add some interesting things eventually, don't know if Genshin does things like costumes or accessories or anything like that.

I wouldn't say it's worth playing for the story though because it takes a long time to get going, and the current expansion's story was pretty good but isn't quite worth the time investment. The open world exploration stories can be pretty good too if you like open world exploration. The game wishes it was FF14, but it ain't. Also, bizarrely, some of the best character story beats are in the limited time events which were, uh, limited time only.

I was planning on pulling for Silver Wolf but I think I'm beginning to talk myself out of it. My sole 5* is still Welt and I want Kafka too, so all three just seems like Nihility overload. Plus after getting Jing Yuan's light cone it's very unlikely I'd get both without having to buy jades for Kafka. I'm probably best off just waiting for her banner rerun and see if I still want her (especially since the overall roster should be much more fleshed out by then).

Finally got to Trailblaze 40 and leveled up my most used characters to 60.

Now I can finally step back and relax from the grind.

There is no such thing as character traces.

I'm still missing Sushang, Sampo, and Arlan from the 4 stars. Sushang would be nice but mostly I'm not in any hurry to try and complete the collection.

I have basically no 5 stars, but I guess that's to be expected since I nearly haven't pulled at all aside from whatever white star rail passes the game gave me for rewards. (The only one I do have is Himeko which is the one I got from the new player banner)

You can double check how many pulls since your last 5 star on the silver banner to know how close you are to pity.

I've only had the "misfortune" of pulling a light cone for pity once, but it was Time Waits for No One so I can hardly complain.

I got a 5-star light cone within my last 10 or 20, which I'm assuming resets it.

I just wasn't counting the light cones when making that statement.

If it's the same as Genshin eventually you will prefer pulling the 5* light cones off the regular banner compared to 5* heroes since they never change the heroes on that banner and you basically never pull on the light cone banners as a F2P player. So your incoming 5* light cones are going to be very few but you will get all the heroes through losing 50/50s on the non permanent banners

I guess unlike genshin you can buy 5*s from the summon currency store but they take so much that it's not like you will be getting them quickly

Just give me Bronya from the regular banner then I'll take as many light cones as you throw at me :(

Just had a fun jaunt into SU -- World 4, Difficulty 3

Cast:
* carry Jing Yuan 70, 5*LC (Before Dawn) 70, traces 3/6/6/7 2 big 7 small, relics +63, eidolons 0
* support Asta 60, 4*LC (Carve the Moon) 51, traces 3/4/4/4 1 big 2 small, relics +36, eidolons 0
* support Tingyun 59, 4*LC (Dance!) 51, traces 3/4/4/4 1 big 4 small, relics +45, eidolons 1
* healer Natasha 59, 3*LC (Cornucopia) 51, traces 3/5/5/4 1 big 3 small, relics +30, eidolons 2
* tank FireMC 61, 4*LC (Landau's Choice) 60, traces 3/4/4/5 2 big 6 small, relics +28, eidolons 3
* tank Gepard 61, 5*s5LC (Texture of Memories) 70, traces 4/5/5/3 1 big 4 small, relics +37, eidolons 0

Notable bench: Yanqing 61, Bronya 59, PelaE3 59, SushangE2 59, QingqueE4 50

Somewhat-remembered log (it's hard to remember after transcribing all that):
* Start: Jing Yuan / Asta / Natasha / FireMC, Elation, the Curio that makes more destructibles appear
* None of the stuff at the beginning is weak to any of this, whoops
* Definitely got some "lose 80% HP for a 3* blessing" event before the first boss and healed it off with Natasha ult
* First boss was the fat robot? The team felt slow to kill. And the thing we got hit hardest by was it charging up and hitting the whole team for like 1k+ each.
* Switched FireMC out for Gepard, bought a Curio (discount at using fragments? free blessing reroll?)
* Things progressed
* Switched Natasha out for Tingyun after second boss, feeling powerful. Team is now Jing Yuan / Asta / Tingyun / Gepard, let's go
* Managed to upgrade all 8 Elation blessings I had at a discount at the last shop (~550 cosmic fragments)
* Totally smooth until Robot Boss Phase 3 when the hands show up. The first hand grabbed Jing Yuan and that was rough, I think Tingyun barely managed to break it in time. Only those two could break hands, so that was not a good look, I would've been screwed without Tingyun.
* Then, at some point, one of the hands just blows up and one-shots Tingyun. I think at this point there's only like 40% left, so it's a little dicey. But I get a skill point back after both Jingyun's ult and his talent, so Gepard can basically use his skill every time and manages to keep his shield up the rest of the way.

And that's a win. It was good to see Asta hang in there. I put together a cheap Musketeer relic set today to get her to 130 speed. I think Jing Yuan's talent only had less than 6 stacks a handful of times, especially once blessings got online.
