I'm so sick of being bad at this supposedly easy game. Whenever I'm trying to get better at these Melt combos, the DPS gets somehow worse than the previous one. Despite doing the same set-ups during rotations, they feel extremely inconsistent and I never have the same number of melts. The best I can pull off is 6 melts but it hivers around 5 on average and 4 at worst. I'm just hopeless about it and on the verge of a panic attack but that's what happened when a dogshit player tries to play an outdated DPS.

Fuck my pathetic life !

I'm a trash player who doesn't have any Natlan DPS, the only 5* Natlan characters I own are C0R0 Xilonen and C0R1 Citlali. How does the mechanic work exactly? I know I have to be in Nightsoul state but does it only look at the on-field character or can off-field characters like Citlali or C6 Iansan count ?

Also, what are the teams I could use ? I tried to practice with C2R0 Arle Melt team but the Cryo application doesn't line-up well with Arle's attacks to consistently get 7 melts per rotations and I'm trash as I said so I have massive skill issue lolz.

The other option is C0R1 Skirk premium. On this team however, I fortunately have some skill and can do the N2D combo fairly easily. This team hovers at around 180k DPS and I wonder if it's gonna be enough for this boss in Fearless.

I pulled Arle's C2 a year ago but the brutal shilling in SO didn't allow me to play her that much. But she's rumoured to rerun next patch and I just got Citlaliis sig, trying to pull for Sandrone's.

Are there any C2 Arle Melt combos known to make the best use of the C2 nuke ?

Thank you for everything, Mortenax Blade ! The true Acheron saviour !

After all the pain, malding and regret some of you guys could witness in the previous posts I published here, I'm glad and proud to announce that Varka is second best DPS on my account (only behind C0R1 Skirk full premuim) 🙌🙌🙌🙌

Let's thanks C0R1 Durin, C6 Prune, Varka's sig and the Gift set 🥳🥳🥳

Is this DPS good for a C0R1 Varka with C0R1 Durin and C6 Prune but no Nicole and no Gift set ? For the Gift set, I'm working on it but I won't pull Nicole since I have to keep my guarantee for Sandrone...

My current Varka team has both him and Durin at C0R1 and my Prune is at C6. I lost the 50/50 on Qiqi and I have a guarantee ready.

Judging by the boss we'll get in 6.7, Stellar teams are gonna be a must so I'll use my guarantee on Sandrone to cover this new archetype.

Is Varka gonna be able to clear in the future with this aforementioned team without Nicole ? Is C0R0 Sandrone with C1R0 Yae and C6 Qiqi a good starter team for Fearless clears against the new Stellar shill ?

I've lost the 50/50 to Qiqi and got C6 Prune on the way. Never got this lucky for a 4* character ever, I'm so happy.

Since I'm worried about the meta, I thought of keeping the guarantee for Sandrone and play the Varka team with just Durin, Bennett and C6 Prune.

How much worse is this team compared to the Nicole one ? Can I hope to get good clears in SO Fearless with it, despite Bennett's pratical issues ?

I pulled Varka in 6.4, believing he would be the new main push after Lunar teams but I was so sorely mistaken. He'll get next patch with Nicole, Prune and the new set but I'm afraid even that won't be enough to save him.

My Varka has his current full premium team at C0R1 and he's barely reaching 140k DPS...and that's in the best case scenario against the Miliastra dummy...

I'll try to go for Nicole but I'm not guaranteed and you clearly know how little primos we'll get next patch. Also, I don't take C6 Prune into consideration since I won't be lucky enough to get her.

I'm a weak ass player who needs meta to be able to do things in this game. Thus why I regret pulling for Varka so bad and how cooked I'll be for the Snezhnaya meta if I don't pull for the upcoming characters.

Knowing of all this, should I pull for Nicole ? If I happen to get C2 Prune, is she worth playing in the team over my C0R1 Venti ? And if so for the last 2 questions, how much DPS should I be able to gain ?

After all the regrets I've been expressing about Varka and the Hexerei concept, I wanna have a reasonable discussion with you guys about my Varka and the ways I could improve its performances.

After farming better pieces for both Durin and Venti as well as mastering the N1C N4E N4E N1C combo, I've managed to get the DPS you can see on the Miliastra screenshot.

Now I wanna ask you guys what I can could to get better a better DPS. I'm planning on pulling C0R0 Nicole and as many Prunes as possible (ideally at C6 but realistically at C2).

With buffs from them both and the new artifact set, how much DPS could I hope to reach? Should I put Durin in the Winds set or Noblesse? Should I farm better pieces for Varka? I wanna have your opinion about the whole matter and don't judge me too harshly please.

Knowing of how much of a must Prune is for Varka (especially at C6) and when taking into account my luck on 4* characters is shit, this is how I'm planning the situation.

On average, it takes three 5* characters to get a newly released 4* character at C6. I'll get Nicole at C0R0 first but if I happen not to get C6 Prune on the way, which are the best dupes to own?

I'll assume the first half banners will be Nicole and Durin. So what is the best vertical for Varka's teams ?

C2 Nicole ? C2 Durin ? C1 Nicole + C1 Durin ?
