So, after going through similar posts I'm realizing we have two options - 4pc KotS for Attacker/Rupture, or 2pc/2pc/2pc for Armourers (Claret).

I do have Claret but plan to invest heavily into a certain character who is rumoured to be Wind Attacker. Hence, my dilemma. What would be the most flexible option here, assuming I am shuffling her around multiple teams?

If I understand correctly, ER is a valuable stat for her in general, so double ER essentialy means sacrificing the KotS 4pc bonus but still playing into her strengths. I assume the last 2pc is still KotS, or is it Shockstar? I've also seen mixed opinions on disc 5, as Wind damage seems less ideal for her.

What is the current consensus for her build? Any input is hugely appreciated!

So, like many here I'm ready to throw all my savings and the kitchen sink at this guy and since we likely have months before we get his banner (imo, I won't complain if he comes earlier!) I need to keep myself occupied with some theorizing. Obviously not the first post of this type in general, but I haven't found one in this sub yet and I think it could be evry fun to compare once we get proper leaks/in-game confirmation!

I think the option most of our minds immediately jumped to is Pyro - he has a lot of red in his design, there were no clearly pyro-coded characters in the trailer otherwise and there is actually some lore about "red flames" replacing the blue flames in Snezhnaya. Since he's giving fae-vibes this would make him an intentional design meant to mirror Flins in some way.

My personal second guess would be Dendro - no, not because of a heavily sus leak, but because I'd die for red-coloured dendro visuals (maybe some cool looking thorns?), him being THE rimegrass push would make him an incredibly valuable unit across the board and his demo song would have electric music influences, which I'd also die for.

Another one I've seen pop up is Cryo - that's imo not very likely, because there are already so many cryo characters lined up for Snezhnaya. We got at least the Tsaritsa and Odette as 5 stars, likely some 4 star and I'd be generous and add Sandrone to the pile, since she's a stellar character. I don't see any space for him in there.

If he turns out to be Electro I'll straight up kill someone (jk) - I've pulled each and every Electro dude so far and love all of them dearly but I don't need another Electro on-fielder and the supports are also pretty dense already. Plus, I can't see him being a goofy character. And let's be honest, electro boys being goofy is part of their charme.

Hydro and Anemo I'd rule out completely tbh. But if you think it's possible I'd love to hear some fellow Noy fans share their theories too!
