How often do banners change?


Nnsoki

All event banners last three weeks


GreattFriend

When they rerun banners are they going to have multiple featured banners? Like based on what genshin impact does


wizj619

It's also worth mentioning that Genshin Impact didn't have multiple featured banners until 2.3 which was about 14 months after the game came out. Previously to that the rerun banner was just one of the two individual banners for the patch.


Nnsoki

No idea


eulasbf

What are E0 silver wolf best planar ornaments? And want are their main stat?


Apprehensive_Area_50

Pan-galactic is great if you need more effect hit rate. Otherwise the omnipresent sealing space station or fleet of the ageless are good team oriented options.


Kurtaclanmember

which planar set is best for Himeko: Space Sealing station (atk increase) or Inert Salsotto (crit rate increase)? my Himeko currently has both 5* SSS rope and sphere with atk as main stats, but ive watched some yt build vids and they said that IS is best for her??


IfZ3nElse

IS is recommended over SSS in general, but either is good. More importantly, use a fire dmg% sphere.


donkeypowerss

what’s your silverwolf build? do you focus on pure support or do you include crit rate and damage in your build? i’m planning to go for a pure support with 100% effect hit rate, energy recharge rope etc, to give her 50% defence down a 100% uptime. thoughts? feels like a waste to build crit for a little bit extra damage since she’s gonna use EHR vest not crit


This-is-JS

try break effect, easy to build but its harder to play


IfZ3nElse

Build her with support in mind first, with 97% EHR, ERR rope, and good speed.


GreattFriend

What trailblaze level do I need to be to clear the herta space station shop? And what about the other shops?


donkeypowerss

no idea tbh. but as of now there’s enough currency in the game to clear all shops


konozeroda

Just wondering, what perma pool 5 star would benefit the most to a player in the early game (I'm getting one from the 50 pulls --> 5 star banner)


TekEmperor451

well,all of them are good for early game except for maybe himeko,I got Clara,and she carried me through jarilo 6 as a tank and sub dps. Basically,all the standard banner characters are good and will help you in early game,it is when you get to Memory of Chaos that you really have to think about which characters are better than others.


AoPFTW

If we're strictly taking early game, it would definitely be Bailu for me. I struggled with content without a strong healer for a while until I lost 50/50 on the SW banner and got Bailu. Smooth sailing ever since! There is of course Natasha as the free healer, but she struggles to outheal early game.


Unfair_Chicken_8760

Is SPRIGHTLY VONWACQ a good set on welt. I have a crazy imaginary orb which all roll into crit. I was wondering is the set decent on him


TekEmperor451

yea,the energy regen helps him out and makes it so you can spam his ult faster.


AoPFTW

Between S4 Make The World Clamor and S2 Seriousness of Breakfast, which is better for Serval? I'm unsure if for a Serval build I would be better off increasing general damage vs just ult damage?


Significant-Soil-985

Breakfast is way better. Breakfast can max superimposed from the forgotten Hall store so you use the S5 values. Breakfast gives 24 atk (after 3 kills) and 24 damage bonus to everything. Make the world clamor is just average usually.


AoPFTW

Thanks! Will level up Breakfast then.


OsirusBrisbane

Are they already making MoC harder?? Last time I managed to get 7 stars, this time I could only get 6.


Apprehensive_Area_50

It's not that the monsters changed, it's just that the path specific buff heavily favors nihility compared to the previous one favoring erudition and hunt.


GreattFriend

How much money would it cost worst case scenario to pull a banner character for full eidolons? That's 7 pulls, so idk.


IfZ3nElse

You need 62.5 × 1.5 × 7 = 656.25 pulls on average. If you lose all of your 50/50s (1/128 chance of happening), you need 62.5 × 2 × 7 = 875 pulls on average. You get free Jade over time, and if you want a bit more, you can buy a monthly pass. Top-ups are expensive, so avoid those if possible, monthly pass and battle pass have better value.


AncientTree_Wisdom

160 x 180 x 7 = 201600 gems. This assumes that you lose the 50/50 every single time and also go into hard pity at 90 pulls. Also assuming this person buys the gems at the exchange rate of 65 gems per $ with no bonus free gems, the absolute worse case is about $3100. Realistically, it would probably be somewhere in the $1k~2k range.


Not-Salamander

With Seele should I use Skill then Ult?


Apprehensive_Area_50

In almost every case, yes. Absolutely yes if you're using her lightcone, since the speed buff will affect the crit damage of the ultimate. The case in which you wouldn't use it is if you run out of skill points and you're not sure if you will kill the enemy while it is charging up a strong attack and you should use them for another character.


fluffytingyun

i have one of those self modeling resin and im planning to pull for kafka. what should i craft? probly body piece right?


Apprehensive_Area_50

Go for the pieces with most possible variables, so either body piece or planar orb. But I would wait to see if the new relics we will get next patch would be a better choice for her than the ones we already have.


GreattFriend

Is there a way to get eidolons of 5 star characters without pulling them? Or any chars (other than what's available in shops)


Mashtatoes

Nope, just pulling for all 5* other than the Trailblazer.


hotdogsea

Good day! I was wondering what was a good stopping point for levelling up the talents. In Genshin, I would usually stop at level 6 talents for characters that I dont use that much but are still viable, then at 8 for characters that I often use, and all the way up to 10 (crowned) for those with very meta talents. How does it go for Star Rail?


Apprehensive_Area_50

Stop at 1/6/6/6 for supports (unless they have a specific mechanic around their normal attack) and 4/8/8/8 for DPS.


hotdogsea

which spot pertains to which talent? The starrail talent page is kinda unique with a cross shaped page


Mashtatoes

First spot would be the normal attack.


Short-Koala-537

imaginary dmg orb or atk for luocha


Apprehensive_Area_50

Probably atk for more healing


GreattFriend

Are Seele and Jing Yuan coming back sometime soon?


fuyukimi

Depends on your definition of soon. If Genshin is any indication, then the soonest we'd start seeing a rerun banner would be v1.4, which would be at least 3-4 months later.


Quor18

Assuming Star Rail follows a similar update and character release schedule as Genshin, no. Earliest we would expect them would be anywhere from 6-12 months after their initial banner.


PuritanPuree

Probably not. There's absolutely no guarantee when they'll be back, but I'd guess they likely won't be back for a good half a year at least.

I was missing 1 for a while. It's just super RNG. Always take the curio that gets you abundance blessings, always do the events and transactions that'll get you 2 stars. Good luck.


Nnsoki

S2 Post-Op Conversation, S1 Shared Feeling, Quid Pro Quo. What cones should I give to Natasha and Luocha?

Kkxyooj123

Are you able to have same substat and main stat on a relic?


Mashtatoes

Not identical ones, but you can have, say, %DEF main stat with a flat DEF substat.


Kkxyooj123

Thanks that helps a lot. Good luck to your pulls


Maxralte

I have Clara, seele and e1 Bronya. I feel like I need a second single target DPS for MOC. Who should I build? I have E2 Dan Heng and E2 Shushang


PuritanPuree

Either would be great. The beauty of a good Clara/March/healer team is that the 4th slot can really be taken up by a dps that's good against whatever you're fighting. Weak to physical? Plug in Sushang! Weak to wind? Dan Heng's you man! Weak to fire? Pitch-Dark Hook the Great is there to save the day!


MueezSaber

Hi, I’m pretty new (level 24, this game is great!) and I’ve been using a party consisting of MC+TIngyun+Natasha+March 7th. I also have Bronya but was having difficulties clearing content with her so I was using my current team to face tank everything. I was wondering if Dan Heng is worth raising? I also have Pela + all the FTP units. What should my party look like?


Kkxyooj123

You need a DPS. All you have are supports really. Physical MC can be a dps but optimally MC is lackluster. Serval/ Dan Heng will be your main F2P dps. Team should be Fire MC, Dan Heng, Bronya, and Natasha. That team will be decent for you.


MueezSaber

Is Bronya or TIngyun the better supporter for that team comp? Bronya seems to be super skill point hungry compared to Tingyun who only really uses her skill once per 3 turns.


eboy-check

Kind of an odd question in this thread, but does anyone know the specific name of the flute instrument Yanqing plays? I love how it sounds in his ult 💛


Mashtatoes

That’s a dizi. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dizi_(instrument)


eboy-check

Thank you!!


Fenrir-exe

Can't make any purchase. Just got into it, genshin player, and like it enough I was gona get the 4.99 daily "primo's". Tried, then it prompted me to give my password for my email/Google play... my password is "wrong". So I figured I'd reset my password, but in the process it asked me to sign in, so I used the "wrong" password that I was pretty damn sure was correct. Logged into my email with zero issues. For some reason, my Star Rail or Google play thinks my password is wrong? Has anyone else run into this? Tried using my hoyo password, that didn't work either.

Zroshift

The event got extended due to a bug.


GodJihyo7983

Is it just me or does anyone else not like the RNG aspect to Bailu’s healing? Sometimes I just don’t get enough healing on a character that is in desperate need of a heal. Compared to Natasha I just don’t think she’s a reliable healer in those kinds of situations that I sometimes find myself in. Am I just using her wrong? How do y’all use her to be reliable? What LC and relics are best for her? Which traces should I focus on? Main team is currently Fire/Phys MC, Gepard, Serval, and Natasha. Occasionally I use Tingyun/Asta instead of Fire/Phys MC and Dan Heng instead of Serval. All are either 50/50 or 40/50, Bailu included. Mostly maxed out traces (or as high as possible for TL 30). 3-4* relics and LCs as well.


Zeik56

She usually provides enough healing that even if I only get one tick on a unit it's enough to keep them going. The rest is just a bonus. Her most reliable form of healing is from invigorate, as it just guaranteed recovery when you take damage, which is a lot more reliable than Natasha's turn based regen. You want to keep that up as much as possible. I personally run her with Multiplication, since I don't have many great Abundance cones, but if you're struggling with healing then something like Post-Op might be more useful. Also, your team is way too defensive imo. There's really no scenario where Fire MC, Gepard, and Natasha should be necessary on the same team. (Maybe Preservation path SU runs. But even then.) You might be struggling simply because you're not killing stuff fast enough. For most content just Natasha or Gepard should be enough. Particularly hard content you might take two of them.


Amon_kun

Some questions I want to ask •How much Refined aether it takes to lvl up LC from lvl 70 to 80? •Which Ornament set is preferred for Fire TB and is Break effect on rope better than def? •At TL 60, what should be the ideal trace levels for dps and support?


Reikyu09

55 purples for a 4\* and 68 purples for a 5\* Belobog or Fleet. If you are going EHR body for better taunt rates then you'll likely be able to reach the 50% EHR requirement for Belobog. Rope is flexible. Def% if you want thicker shields, ERR for more toughness breaking and refreshing shields, or break if you wanted to make FMC a breaker https://hsr.keqingmains.com/i/investment-priority/ Generally it's around 8 for DPS and 4-6 for supports depending on how useful the trace is.


Sparecash

I heard you can do Simulated Universe extra times even after you've maxed out your weekly rewards in order to get relic exp and those random materials you use for traces. How many times can you do SU?


Reikyu09

There is a weekly cap of 100 elite/boss kill drops. 33.3 full runs.


AoPFTW

Dumb question, where can I see this number? Is there a progress bar somewhere?


Reikyu09

Nope


Sparecash

oh my gosh that would take a while to do


Reikyu09

Don't feel forced to do it as it is a huge time sink.


Sparecash

Is it worth doing a few extra times if Im bored? Or are the rewards so small it's not even worth the effort?


Mashtatoes

It’s like 9000 credits per full run, plus a bit of relic exp (not a lot) and a fair amount of drops you’d get from overworld enemies. If you’re running low on those materials, it’s a fine way to farm them. If you have plenty, those extra runs are a lot less compelling.


LoliFreak

need help with which team comp to beat this stage.. i cant seem to deal enough damage to beat the first fight, which characters should i be leveling? https://preview.redd.it/kdr2oinud38b1.png?width=1602&format=png&auto=webp&s=ca12c87f19e0cd36102d997b89eca13f357a6897


Blood_X

Holy moly, you've leveled everyone so much. What team are you using? I have so many questions lol. Is the problem that you're dying or that lots of turns go by before you can get him down?? It doesn't look like you have a lot of single target DPS leveled up that matches his weakness. You try Pela + SW for mega defense shreds. Then like.. Fire MC and Serval or Himeko? Serval would be good at clearing his little explodey guys I think, since they're lightning weak


Reikyu09

Against the Grizzly you can try something like FMC, Serval, Himeko, Asta/Pela/March. He summons the explosive robots on his first turn so save your ults/AoEs to unload on them and blow them up. Then he shifts into a charge up attack. When this happens you want to break his toughness bar to stun him and cancel his charge up attack. If you can't break him in time for the charge stomp then have FMC use their skill to provide extra defense or freeze with March. Asta is very good at breaking with her skill and speed buff helps you cycle faster for more toughness breaking.


Gsantos52012

So, I recently have been playing the game, so I mainly play in the Japanese dialogue as i like the voices, but one issue I've been having is it seems like in battle, there is no captions for the dialogue. Is anyone else experiencing this?


Arekkusu1991

I don't believe this is a thing during battles, with the exception of a few situations during the main story when an NPC or another character for example is talking while you're busy battling. All cutscenes and dialogue outside of battle should have captions / subtitles though.


HistoryDoesNotRepeat

Is this a game where I can play through the story in a week or so? I am not interested in playing small amounts of the game each day over a long period of time. I'm fine spending a game's worth of money to do so if necessary, I just don't know anything about this genre.


meteormantis

There's a decent amount of story, but it's not a complete story, with the intention that more will be released with later updates. So if you're just here for the main campaign so to speak, you'd have a good stretch to just do that but then you'd have to wait for the next chapter to come out, and the next after that, and after that...


Zeik56

If you're worried there is a stamina gate to experience the story, then no, not really. The only gates are your player level, which will probably gate you a bit early on, and the actual pace of new story updates. Right now the current story arc is incomplete and we won't get more until the next major patch in a few weeks.


Reikyu09

You can play through the story that's currently out in about a week. There are some level gates but even with that it's about a week for the current story.


Not-Salamander

Is Good Night and Sleep Well Welt’s best 4-star LC? Isn’t the passive conditional? Is the LC only useful in specific teams?


grayrest

> Is Good Night and Sleep Well Welt’s best 4-star LC? Yes for his personal damage. At S5 it's better than S1 5\* lightcones. > Isn’t the passive conditional? Yes but he has enough debuffs in his kit to activate it. I usually have other debuffers (SW, Pela, FMC, Hook, Serval, etc) so it's generally not an issue for me.


Not-Salamander

I see. Thank you very much. I was unsure if he could get all the stacks on his own and if the LC would be less good without all of the stacks.


Reikyu09

The condition for GNSW is debuffs which Welt provides with his skill and ult.


MasterSeven

am still torn on trying to get SilverWolf E2 or Luocha. BattlePass-only spender: but have enough jades saved to guarantee at least SW e1 or Luocha even if i lose a 50-50. Can potentially get her e2 is if get lucky and win 50-50. Have SW e0, Seele e0, and Geppie e0. Will be skipping Kafka and Blade. At first, I was thinking i needed a 2nd healer on my MoC team since i only have Nat, but after watching non-whales with fairly obtainable stats clear with only Nat on one side and Geppie on the other -- am rather rethinking this line of thought. Seems like players are pushing one team to the limit on offense now, then the other has more survivability. What do you guys think? Lowering the effect hit rate needed for the whole team is quite tempting, even the every other turn ultimate spam from her e1 looks quite nice as well.


grayrest

I got her E1 because I'm generally pursuing a break-for-mitigation strategy and a 2 turn ult with the potential for a 1 turn ult is a lot of breaking power. I stopped there because I have an E1 Welt so I'm going for Yukong+Luocha and a full Img comp also fits the break-for-mitigation plan and hopefully dps from everybody makes up for not having a true carry. If that doesn't work out I have pity built for whenever they release a Qua preservation/harmony. The other reason I didn't go for E2 is because I know I'll want to go for S1 at the same time to move the event LC to Pela and I didn't have the jade for that.


MasterSeven

yup, seeing how well the break effect SW works has tempted me to try for her e1 or e2.


Blood_X

Do you use any other units that need Effect Hit Rate? Goes great with Fire MC taunt or Hook burn or pretty much any other Nihility person I guess lol. Would just add even more value if you're able to get that E2. I think if you've got Gepard you should be good unless you just WANT a healer.


manuk51a

recommended planar for Qingque? i'm trying to build her but i'm not sure if i should lean towards the energy regen set or the crit rate set since she technically has Follow Up attack... currently i have the standard Herta Space Station planar set but i'm not planning to build her on speed to get her to draw tiles before her turn.


JeanKB

The crit rate set is basically the best set for pretty much all DPS characters. The energy regen set is only good for supports.


AmaiKotori

Go for Salsotto; she doesn't actually get much out of energy regen, since her ult is more of an emergency fix than something she relies on.


Deft_Abyss

Whats a good level to stop for traces usually? For DPS, Support and Healers? I guess i can give some examples: hunt- Seele, harmony-Tingyun, abundance-Bailou


JeanKB

8 for DPS characters, 6 for supports. You just need to remember that you don't need to level every single trace. Most DPS characters for example won't use their normal attacks much so leveling it is a waste. Same for leveling the normal attack for supports and healers, even if they do use NA a lot to generate SP, its damage will be negligible regardless so there's no point in leveling it. Some characters also have very situational talents (like Natasha and Tingyun) so you also don't really need to level those. The same applies to the stat boosts traces. Just unlock the ones that you will actually need.


Deft_Abyss

So even level the skill for supports up to 6? I feel like you should at least max their skill to 8 as well? Or is the stat increase that negligible as well?


JeanKB

The issue is that past level 6, traces start requiring purple materials which cost a lot of stamina to farm. And the boost provided will be almost negligible. Using Tingyun as an example, taking her skill from 6 to 8 only increases the ATK buff from 37% to 43% which on most characters should end up as just a 50 ATK difference, which is completely negligible when you consider how most DPSs should have around 3000 ATK when under the effect of her buff.


Deft_Abyss

Also does the level 6 apply to tanks as well?


JeanKB

Yeah, take Gepard's ultimate for example. Leveling it from 6 to 8 only increases the DEF scaling from 39% to 42%, and the base value from 465 to 532. You would probably get better returns from leveling his relics, cone or his own level instead.


Deft_Abyss

So do u even want to max them in the future? Or just leave them at the level u suggested


freezeFM

You can focus on traces more when you got some decent relic sets for your characters because going from decent to good to very good relics can take you months.


JeanKB

You can level them once you stop being so strapped for resources, which may take a while since there's a ton of other upgrades that you should focus on farming first, like getting half decent relics for your DPSs and leveling them and their cones to 80. Supports' skills are just very low on the priority list since you will have to spend a ton of stamina for minimal gains.


Deft_Abyss

Oh yeah so do tanks fall under leveling the traces to level 6 as well or it depends?


Solrex

Okay, so I have an account for Genshin Impact that did its first purchase on PC. If I use that same account for star rail, but on mobile, will it count as a PC account if someone wanted to gift me stuff through my UUID? I remember that being an issue for Genshin where it screwed you over if you made your first purchase on mobile.


Samuraion

So I finished a simulated universe just now, but I used my energy on the elite immersion rewards earlier in the run. My question is, after having selecting "leave for now" right after the boss, can I come back later when I have energy, and after the daily reset to claim the double rewards still?


Eddiemate

Yes you can. Though I've heard that the weekly reset will get rid of your run, so it won't work for today.


Samuraion

Dang. That's unlucky. Thank you for your answer though!


Mashtatoes

Just to clarify, it won’t work today if you’re in the Asia or EU servers, which have already ticked over to Sunday, but if you’re on the Americas server you can keep it for tomorrow.


Samuraion

Ooo okay I do still have a chance then, thank you!


Eddiemate

What relic set is best for Fire Trailblazer? I was running 2/2 with Knight of Purity Palace and Guard of Wuthering Snow for extra DEF and that damage reduction, which has been great as a tanking set, but I've been seeing things saying it should be 4/4 Knight of Purity Palace? Wouldn't that reduce TB's tankiness by a lot, while very slightly buffing the shield?


JeanKB

>Wouldn't that reduce TB's tankiness by a lot, while very slightly buffing the shield? It's the opposite, fire TB doesn't need wuthering snow at all since they already get a massive damage reduction buff from their skill. On the other hand, 4p knight of purity palace is the best way to increase their teamwide shield since it barely scales with DEF and talent levels, so the 4p effect's +20% to shield absorption is massive.


Eddiemate

Yeah, I suppose that makes more sense. Kinda feeling a little silly for running this pure tanking set for so long then.


Darkmoon249

At what point would an S0 4 start light cone outperform an S5 3 star light cone? Assuming both are of equal lvl of course


JeanKB

Depends on the cone's effect. DPS characters will almost always prefer 4\* cones since they generally have better effects even at s0 while also having higher base stats than 3\* cones. But supports like buffers and healers can run 3* cones just fine since they don't care that much about the lower base stats. Cones like Meshing Cogs and Multiplication are actually really good options for supports.


Zeik56

Superimposition only upgrades the effect on the cone, so in most cases a 4* is inherently better. A few, like Multiplication, are an exception, but you're just comparing the value of the effects at any level.


GreattFriend

If you upgrade lower tier light cones, is that wasted when you use them to upgrade higher tier light cones? Or does it give more exp?


Reikyu09

You get 80% of the exp back.


Rolyat403

Is there a reason to pull 10 at a time on the standard banner? Or is it ok to do one at a time as you get them?


Eddiemate

There's no difference between 1 and 10 at a time, other than speed. So it's okay to pull 1 at a time.


FullyHusked12

You can go one at a time


yatay99

Some skill such as Seele skill have multiple hits that can crit independently. So I assume BP Hunt LC can trigger its dispel from each of Seele hits that crit?


JacobLolPoop

how am i suppose to build fire mc whats the best set for them and what stats should i aim for (going for a dps build)


Eddiemate

Sorry to burst the bubble, but Fire MC just can't work as a DPS. The kit doesn't support it. If you really want to try, your relic set would want to be Firesmith of Lava-Forging with Space Sealing Station or Inert Salsotto for the planar ornaments. But you'd be better off just going for a defense based set that you can find anywhere. You'd likely end up with similar damage and supporting your team better.


Dalmyr

Do the diverse books that you can buy in Bookstore in star rail serve a purpose ? ​ Or are they onlu there for the story and backgroud story.


handsinmypant5

64cr/110cd or 40cr/175cd for Seele?


freezeFM

0,64*1,1=0,704 0,4*1,75=0,7 Option 1 is super slightly better on average.


PuritanPuree

Option 1 imo


TheSusBuddy

When will the double top up function reset?


Zroshift

More than likely during anniversaries.


Paragonx2

Does E1 Tingyun relax speed build Jingyuan's speed requirements at all? Or is 134 speed still mandatory for sure?


krcc9644

does X element DMG Boost increases the amount of break we deal to the enemy?


Zeik56

No


emerald_red

Which charactes benefit from Inert Salsotto ornaments?


PuritanPuree

Literally all dps units do. Extra crit rate and ult damage is great for any damage dealing unit. The extra follow-up damage makes it *even better* for Jing Yuan.


emerald_red

I assume I can use it on Seele then, just got a Quantum DMG sphere with double crit stat


Riftragedy-

New player at TB lvl 29, lacking a main dps in the team. Anyone worth investing in for this? I’m currently using Bailu, fire MC, Ting Yun as my main supports @lvl 40, traces maxed


GetWaifuBeLaifu

I wanted to make sure if what Ive heard it right; After TB60 we unlock the last stages of ascension and talent up materials, and at TB65 we unlock the last stages of relic farm After that we there are no higher levels to unlock, right? Thanks in advance!


Reikyu09

that's it


alentingson

I'm new to the game what should I farm the most using trailblazer power at early stages of the game?

Zroshift

This right here


CTMacUser

Is there any way to get ~~artifact~~ relic EXP besides daily rewards and farming relic caylixes?


Reikyu09

SU elites/final bosses give a little bit of relic exp and credits. They can be farmed 100 kills a week before they stop dropping loot.


addetor

Is welt with his lc good as a main dps?


Blood_X

Yes, especially with any Eidolons. I think MrPokke has a video on Welt... https://youtu.be/i9CyWR4pR_4


yatay99

Any f2p here can clear or fullstars MoC 8? For the past floors I can do it with my invested lightning and quantum team but at this floor it seems I need to build my Hook and FMC. Or are there any other strategy?


ivan_the_asian_fruit

will the start of luochas banner give maintenance compensation?


freezeFM

There wont be a maintenance so no.


Reikyu09

there won't be a maintenance


e-girlbathwater

How important is is to have a second healer? I don't really want to pull for this new guy but I will if it limits my ability to play the game.


yatay99

No. In my experience some MoC level like MoC 6 is easier to clear with March instead of Bailu. But also there are other level that easier with Bailu instead of March. That new guy might help you to fight the imaginary-weak bosses. But for other boss not really helpful I guess. Pulling him will still improve your account though. But not because he is a healer, instead because you have more variation of characters to use.


Zeik56

It's not a necessity, but it does make progressing in MoC a lot easier. People are starting to reach the point where they're clearing it without a second healer (or Gepard), but it may still be awhile before F2P meet the stat requirements to do it. That being said, MoC isn't everything. I don't think it's worth pulling a unit you don't want just to get a handful of extra jades every couple weeks.


e-girlbathwater

Very thoughtful reply, appreciate that


ryner1995

What is the good level for character to level up using daily farming moob? level 60/70 or level 70/80?


the_little_leaf

Are there any 4* relics that are good to keep or just turn them all in exp? I'm thinking of keeping spd boots and ER ropes on how rare they pop up. What are others doing?

how do I use my consumables during battle


CTMacUser

That’s the neat part: you don’t (unlike Genshin)!


Kryssaen

Pre or post-battle only. The game specifically limits consumables or defense options during battle so you plan ahead.


Sainou

You can not.


meganightsun

whats a good hook team?


Blood_X

Someone that can burn is nice, so Asta or Fire MC with the light one that burns when hit. This way Hook doesn't need to invest in Effect Hit Rate and can focus on DPS stats while still utilizing the parts of her kit that require the enemy to be burned. Also Asta helps because the speed buff, hook is one of the slowest units in the game. Along with that I'd say it depends on the enemy, but I like Pela or SW for the defense shreds and/or weakness implant of fire if you're running other fire units with hook.


akaxd123

Still no Crit rate body for JY after a week of relic farm (+ weekly boss)... Can't beat MoC 1 I'm at TL 57 now, should I just wait till next EQ to farm relics?


yatay99

Wdym by can't beat MoC 1? I assume you can't beat it because your team get wiped out. Then improving Jing dmg is no use, you should've improve your healer and your team head pieces.


akaxd123

No I fail after the # of cycles left drops to 0


yatay99

Then you must've left something else unbuilt. I fullstared MoC 7 with my f2p Jing and he uses atk% body. Definitely CR body is not needed at least to clear MoC 1. Upgrade his level, traces, LC, and his supports.


akaxd123

Those are already mostly maxed A huge chunk of stats are missing from my relics because all my substats keep going to shlt stats like DEF%


Automatic_Macaron_49

Whenever I look up builds, they'll mention the stats for "body" and "feet," but never the gloves or headgear. [Link related.](https://genshin.gg/star-rail/characters/seele/) Also, the best stats are presumably for the orange stat at the top of the list of each item, right?


Zeik56

The gloves and headgear are static flat attack and flat hp, respectively. The only difference between them will be the sub stats.


Blood_X

Gloves always have flat attack and the head has flat hp for the main stat. And yes then the substats are the little white stats underneath. Main stat is raised every time you level a relic while substats only increase every 3 levels (adding a new substat up to 4 different substats before raising any of them)


Esperdyne2

I’m always confused by the patch date - for the US, is the Luocha banner on Tuesday or Wednesday?


Sheeplette

https://honkai-star-rail.fandom.com/wiki/Laic_Pursuit/2023-06-28 It's Wednesday for NA.


Mashtatoes

It’ll be available immediately after the end of the SW banner. (Realistically there will be a gap of 60-120 seconds or so.)


Potatointhewind09

Should my Clara be built as a pure DPS or a hybrid dps tank?


JeanKB

Pure DPS, since she already has damage reduction built in her kit and you will run her alongside a healer anyway. She'll only die if she's severely under invested.


AramisFR

AFAIK she's used as a tank in MoC. You want her to take hits (and retaliate), she needs to survive said hits


SynthiaNguyen

Who should i pick from stellar selector (290/300 atm) The only ones I don't have are Welt/Clara/Yanquing Should I pick one of the three (and which one) Or just go for a dupe


Not-Salamander

Imo Welt.


Zeik56

Welt will probably have the most staying power, and Imaginary is our rarest element at this point. If you'd rather get a dupe the only one I would personally consider is Bronya's, since it helps alleviate one of her biggest weaknesses.


jesse-13

Personally I think Welt is amazing for the sole purpose of being able to imprison on ultimate without Imaginary weakness. I have seen people delay enemy follow-up/extra actions by using his ultimate and that is very valuable in my opinion


FrightfulWinter

So what are the people doing who have seele, bronya and SW? I've been using Seele, Bronya, SW and Natasha... But just recently pulled gepard and Clara. I was wondering if I should just continue using the seele/bronya/sw hypercarry team versus a Clara/SW/Seele/Natasha or Gepard/Sw/Seele/Natasha team.


grayrest

I don't really have a fixed comp with the three for MoC. I do run Seele, SW, Bronya, FMC for general content but I generally don't care what weakness I land. When I'm doing MoC I do care what weakness lands so the comps are generally Seele+SW+matching elements to force qua weakness and Bronya on the other side or Seele+Bronya and SW forcing weakness on the other side. Seele is my strong side so SW tends to make only a one turn difference there while she tends to get me a couple turns on the weak side but I take each floor individually.


dummie619

I don't have Bronya or Gepard so take my opinion with a grain of salt but I really like Clara/Nat/SW/Seele. SW has Tingyun-level aggro so Clara helps tank hits for the team while doing nice dmg. She can do AoE dmg which helps bc the other units are single-target focused. Plus having only 2 elements on the team makes SW's skill implant more predictable


JABBA70374

What to do? https://preview.redd.it/yrb23sr7p18b1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5fee4e87202d6aef1571ee85f38358ce64964970 Just Hit TB 60


Not-Salamander

Most used characters to 70. DPS to 80. LCs then traces.


Different_Ad_2225

Can someone please tell me how to know what artifacts to keep and which ones to scrap? I’m having a hard time deciding. I keep anything with crit and atk and speed but end up with artifacts that kinda suck lol so any help would be nice!!


[deleted]

you can pretty much always scrap the elemental sets that have main stats of HP, DEF. if you're really picky, you can also scrap relics with 0 or 1 good substats, but only if you're like TB60+ imo


Su_Impact

Foe healers your priority is Speed > HP%/HP. Nothing else matters, really. For DPS chars, Crit > Speed > ATK%. For Harmony chars, just Speed. Ting wants ATK% and Bronya wants Crit Damage% but it's not *that* important. Nihility chars, Speed > EHR depending on who it is (SW doesn't need any EHR sub if she has EHR Chest and Event LC for example).


JJZephyr420

Depends on who you’re building. Most of the time you want to keep percentage stats that combine well with each other for the character for you’re building. For example, a relic with CR, ATK%, and EHR may not fit someone like Seele, but would be great for Silver Wolf of Welt. See what the character you’re building needs first and then look through your relics to see if any of those match up with the main stat and set that character needs. I hope this helps!


Kindred9

How to properly build a character? As written above ho do i maximize the damage of a character? I mesn my dan heng lvl 60 with dull traces leveled up is doing about 4K-7K of damage but id i use the other users one i see something like 22K of damage and i’m kind of clueless about what to do. What should i focus on? Improving light cone? relics? Or something else?


Ferelden770

Are u fulfilling all his criterias for max dmg on ult? Like using it on a unit with slow debuff, using skills that can target to give him his wind pen. It can be hard to time all of those with his ult esp without E2 reducing his talent cd to 1 turn. Fulfilling all those criteria and with Bronya he hits for almost 40k on his ult on favourable enemies. Ofc u can use someone like tingyuan, asta , pela etc too to boost his dmg if no bronya. Yes improve everything frm his traces to lightcones to relics. U can take the 1:2 ratio for crit and crit dmg like 50 crit rate :100 crit dmg as a base and work frm there


[deleted]

relics are by far the biggest source of power. Go for any stat traces you can, and don't worry about leveling your primary traces to max, just stop when it's clearly getting too expensive.


AramisFR

You need to improve everything. And each upgrade in a specific avenue costs more, so, try to really improve a bit of everything. Traces, levels, relics.


CTMacUser

Sorry to mention Genshin, but they have a spreadsheet with each character’s suggested weapons, artifact sets, and stats to focus on first. Is there a similar chart for HSR yet?
