(+) Yeah! (+)

cry

Got baited into rolling the LC banner for the first time trying to roll the Firefly LC, so that I could get the free Archer one

Lost the 75/25 to Bronya LC. Absolute scam banner :(

bronya LC is a partial win

Thats just total pulls in general for the Archer LC. You dont have to pull on the LC banner for the free one

Yes I know, but I wanted the Firefly LC the most of all my options left to pull on lol
I still need to do 9 more but I think I'll switch to the Jingliu banner now (though I'm not near pity)

the Luocha Cone for....Ghalagher, I assume (Luocha is locked to the Castorice Team and that Cone doesn't do much there, meanwhile it could be wild for Ghalagher I think?)

Gallagher really wants only Quid Pro Quo or Multiplication, depending on the fight. Most of Luocha's cone doesn't do much for him.

Is there ANYONE who can really use that Cone besides Luocha?

I wish Prydwen had a reverse LC recommendation that listed near characters in order lol.

Lots of QoL coming

Bet you there's gonna be 12 reruns during this period lol.

Cyrene and....???

Imagine if it's Screwllum finally.

Maybe my wish has come true and they've got new 4 star characters lined up.

Its finally Mr. Recas time

Oh I didn't even realize we were getting 3.8, I thought they might skip it ZZZ style.

Uhhhhhhh Lygus reforms and joins the Astral Express, does nothing for a year

ALRIGHT

Hysilens (was near Guarantee)
Kafka (next 10-pull)
Hysilens S1 (Around 40 pulls)
Bronya LC (5 pulls later)
Fu Xuan'd at pity
Hysilens E1 60 pulls

210 pulls for all that is pretty awesome. And my first double pull with the LCs!

70 pulls (guaranteed) for Hysliens. I am once again going to pity

Did a max difficulty DU run (Threshold 7 is max I think?) with a DoT focus for the first time with Hys/BS/Kafka/Ling and it was absolutely insane until the end when I rolled....Nikador, one of the worst possible boss for a DoT team in the game.

Let me just peek into this restaurant event

I also forgot to mention I do have Black Swan E1 and used the anniversary token on E1 RM and it was still only a 3 cycle so it's not like, insanely good for dot. I still expect Hysliens to be a big boost.

So, I was doing 3 cycles on Svarog. After farming Eagle for Kafka, that became 2. Hysilens takes it to a 0 cycle. Holy shit.

Phainon is still 1-cycling his side though I might be able to do 0 if I had god relics? But Cerydra might get him there, here's hoping.

Didn't we already know 3.8 existed and was going to be a Penacony Trailblaze Continuance?

this was me last night too lmao

---

80 pulls, but I finally broke my 50/50 losing streak and got Kafka.Time for her to do absolutely nothing since I have none of her team and I have to save for Evernight and Cyrene lol.

Ive still been pulling for Sabers LC. Hopefully I win the 75/25 or Im gonna be broke the next several patches

Hey I won the 75/25! I guess my Saber will just have to stay E2S1 since getting her to E6 is probably impossible unless I skip a lot of stuff

Voremarch and Diamond Dan gameplay tonight.

Gonna be watching that Reddit like a hawk.

LMAO Danny has team healing on his LC, and is Attack based. Absolutely going full fucking crack in the LC because he's free.

Lol that second set sucks ass, they gotta tune that.

Won't be surprised if these are the rewards found in that new super high difficulty mode

Dan Heng looks like he'll be Phainon's best sustain by far but necessarily not better than running a 3rd buffer. I felt like that's where he'd end up

March is definitely screaming "castorice's new best friend" but I wonder if she works solo-ish with RMC and Hyacine too

March LC is INSANE holy shit. 20% teamwide memosprite Def ignore??? and I thought Hyacine LC was busted

I really like that his Ult is and incredibly suped up version of his 4* Ult (which has low-key always been one of the coolest ults

Gotta be honest I don't think they would have had a problem selling this guy lmao.

I am ready for a new friend for Castorice

that evernight LC. there's no way i can go for it unless i get evernight on like my first multi but like what would be my option other than to sign up for battlepass again for a not-atrocious LC for an HP Remembrance character? f2p dying

also the evernight e6 graphic oh boy

Very true! I was assuming he's free because a sustain is a pretty hard sell, but Hyacine apparently sold pretty well! It's basicallly only Lingsha who sold like trash. His current kit is definitely not Hyacine level, but he's no Lingsha either. Kind of Aventurine 2, who was also very popular.

Also seeing a lot of debate about Cyrene due to March. Right now the squad looks like Cas/March/Tribbie/Hyacine. Cyrene would need a lot of buffs to replace Tribbie for the 4x memosprite team but it could happen? Kind of wild to think about.

also yeah ngl it is kind of a big turn-off for me too with Cyrene upcoming. limited remembrance light cones are so crazy

There's a semi-F2P solution but it's kind of annoying. If you have The Story's Next Page from the gacha, it has high base HP and gives HP% and healing bonus, it's actually better than the Herta cone on Hyacine but you need really good speed substats to make up for it. Then you can put Herta cone on March. The MOC cone also seems...fine...? Evernight actually uses the crit damage and it has a team buff, -200 base hp is rough though.

I think I do have The Story's Next Page but I also think my Hyacine's SPD substats aren't quite good enough without the Herta LC to hit 200+ so I'd have to get better ones/reroll my existing ones.

just give us a decent f2p hp remembrance cone beyond the one herta shop one hoyo

TSNP might also be fine on March for the raw HP. I never saw anyone bother to calc how good it is as a Castorice alternative but it should be at least Bailu LC level.

The general consensus Im seeing is that March actually replaces Tribbie and Cyrene will replace RMC, but I suppose well see.

evernights kit seems way too similar to rmcs

very disappointed

Finished the story for the patch.

Real fucking good.

Finished the restaraunt minigame, great patch.

Oh right, there's a story quest too I guess

Well, I did the very first part of the main story but I've been ping ponging between other gachas and rpgs the past few days.

Yeah the other two hoyo games having their summer events at the same time is killing me

Im still working on Genshins which I started quite late. Hoyoverse keeps ya busy

Yeah that works.

The dragon's ability not counting as a coreflame stack for Phainon is so annoying
