Firefly....is a little weirder. Firefly was heavily pushed NARRATIVELY, but I don't think there was particular hype around the UNIT. In fact I remember people being pretty down on her before she came out (there wasn't a lot of faith in break at the time.)

I think Firefly is also weird because there was a lot of buildup hype for SAM but uh. Well, we know how that went.

Phainon is interesting because I legit can't tell if MHY is holding back on marketing because he's male or for plot reasons. He gets a lot of favoritism that is screaming "you will understand this man is important whether you like it or not" but whether that translates to sales expectations, no idea.

possibly because his kit involves story spoilers

Yeah I have no idea how they'll handle the livestream this week

They can't just say "pull this man, trust us"

....With the increased Energy Regen and additional SP recovery....would Sunday's LC be better on Sparkle for Archer than her own LC?

I cant find these last 3 treasures Im missing in the shackling prison. Theyre not from the Hexanexus thing are they?

Got my Sparkle geared up to 171 Speed for Archer. I assume the extra speed breakpoint is gonna be worth going 2pc/2pc. Hopefully.

Hmmm I should probably work on my Sparkle some, Cipher is almost good to go and I prefarmed Archer so buffing her is probably next up.

it is the year 2042

there still isn't enough content other than dailies in hsr to keep me busy the week after a story patch comes out

guys i am so bored i want more things to do

At least by 2042 we might have another 4* character

I don't CARE what does SAM look like??

I like we're getting skins and I definitely think Firefly deserves to get one but I'm not really a fan of the basic schoolgirl outfit.

It really does depend on what it does to SAM if anything for me to really care since that's how you'll see your Firefly 99% of the time anyway.

that is the single most boring colour scheme they could have chosen

I hope we get SAM in the basic schoolgirl outfit.

LMAO Sparkle and Sunday both rerurning in 3.4 first half fuck off

How much longer til Saber & Archer. Actually I havent heard either of them in English yet so Im kinda scared how theyll sound

Well I either have good news or bad news for you depending on how you view it

Get ready to play 3.4 in another language my guy.

Fuck me I'm at like 60 or 70 pity right now so those pulls won't count. TFW if I win 50/50s I won't qualify

Basically no shot I get that because I'm really only going for Saber in 3.4. I'm at like 0 pity but even if I lose a 50/50 and go to hard pity twice for her it won't be enough.

I guess maybe if that happens I might spend the rest on Jingliu but... its unlikely I think.

I wasn't expecting a dub anyway. Kari Wahlgren is a SAG-AFTRA member who actually follows Global Rule 1 and no longer works on non-union projects, and Kaiji Tang refuses to work on any works based in China. I'm guessing either TYPE-MOON or Aniplex vetoed any replacements as well (Aniplex has been consistent in keeping almost every dub actor they work with through all of the Fate dubs).

Do you mean theyre going to be silent in English? I wish they could find a way to let us play in English and make Saber & Archer voiced in Japanese at the same time

(I didn't see the livestream so I dunno what they did with Phainon lol but this is one way to "encourage" everyone to pull lol)

It actually sounds like they are... in 3.5.

I'm about to wrap up the last Conundrum levels for Unknowable Domain (unless there are more past 6, but the missions only go that high) and then I think I'll be in a similar spot. Probably go hunt down some achievements I've yet to get - but most of those are in SU I think lol.

If they let us pick language by character then I'm about to go full Tekken.

Oh man thats awesome. More games need that kind of feature. For now Im still doing older content and farming some stuff for Saber. Finally found the last treasures I was missing in the prison, but man I hate these 3D puzzle cube rooms or whatever you want to call them in Penacony. I dunno if my missing treasures are inside them or not and theyre confusing to try to navigate with the map imo

The way it reads it will only be the collab characters (and only to the JPN voice-overs) and not the full cast, but maybe they're building towards that direction?

The colors on the new Sam are good, but not $29.99 good (supposedly)

Fireflys skin is less different than Ellens schoolgirl outfit compared to her main one and that was HALF the price

Could be that price is just being assumed, we'll know soon enough.

Also that Blade rerun is going to be the least pulled on Banner in HSR history. The funniest part is that if you pulled on it with Blade in your loser pull, you won't even know if you lost the 50/50 or not lol.

$30 would fit their usual 5* skin prices I think

Oh I need to go find out what all the new battle pass cones do. I knew they were coming from leaks, but don't think I ever saw leaks for what they actually were?

and lest we forget. 300 jade (100 per code)

Hows my tooth farming for Saber coming along and is there anything else non-relic wise I can farm for her?

green - 195, blue - 205, purple - 25

Wait

Lancer is really in this but he doesn't even get any art or anything lmao

Also I didn't realize they were coming out on the 11th and not with the launch of the patch, damn.

Maybe Lancer is gonna be a free 4* character. Would be kinda sad, but also Star Rail hasnt had one in quite a while now either

Naw we'd know by now for sure.

I'm very curious about which 5* character is gonna be free near the end of 3.x, didn't expect them to confirm something like that this early.

...Couldn't be Cyrene....

Probably gonna be a dude given the trend

Did they specifically state it was a new character, Dr. Ratio style? If so I'd guess it has to be one of (character/plot spoilers) March 7th or Dan Heng surely. I agree it can't be Cyrene especially considering she's the most likely candidate to be the RMC replacement that we know of.

Yeah I feel like it could be either of those 2. They did specify new limited 5* character.

Hold up AND Tribbie??? Diabolical. More people probably pulled her than the other two, but by now it's known she has one of the most busted E1s ever. They're trying to surpass anniversary sales with this one.

Tribbies E1 is that good? I dont have Aglaeas E1 either, but a man can only summon so much without money to throw at the game

Its apparently reaaaaaal good, but someone wiser than I may know the approx % damage increase cause I do not

If Archer wasn't coming out Sparkle would be a joke banner running alongside Sunday, but now they have this new high tier unit who desperately wants her, arguably the first unit who really wants her since she released. It's absolutely diabolical indeed.

Then theres me with the Sparkle I pulled and never used, but hey now Archer can make use of her I guess

ugh, I guess I have to pull for Sunday now? feelsbadman

Tuesday is great I luv him

While the Zone lasts and after ally targets attack enemies, additionally deals True DMG equal to 24% of the total DMG of this attack to targets that have been dealt Additional DMG by the Zone.

I don't have Tribbie so I don't really understand the details on how the Additional Damage works but basically...for starters True Damage is basically an extra damage multiplier so it's a 24% increase for teams that don't have any yet. But then there's something funky about how her damage distribution works so it redistributes the "wasted" damage on adds back on to the boss like how Cipher does it? So it works out to more than that.

You can check to see how it's coming along with the Build Guide thingy.

On the Guide thing that lists all the different Calyxes, Echoes of War, Relics, etc. there should be a button somewhere in the lower left corner I think that lets you pick a character to build. It tells you what they need for Ascension/Mats/Etc. and how many more you need (and puts those farm locations to the top of the list.) Everyone from the livestream is up there now: Phainon, Saber, Archer - and the rerun characters are all tagged with a "about to warp" label as well. I've been using it to prepare for Tribbie the past week or two.

The build guide thing always says you need 24 purples and your solid which is always hilarious to me.

I've been playing this game since launch buddy those traces are all getting maxed.

Does it? When I start from scratch on these characters it wants over 100 purples and stuff lol.

That sounds weird, I enabled it to prefarm Sunday this week and it told me to get 120 purple Trace mats. Are you sure you don't have some weird build setting on? Or it could be counting your universal mats? Idk.
