The ladies always arrive early but the men always play hard to get?? When they’re the ones I actively save up for?? Wish me luck for my DHPT E2S1 pulls I guess

E2S1 DHPT for E0S1 Phainon?

I really want E2S1 DHPT but I also want Phainon for my third team (I’m currently using DanTe for my Elation team). I want to prioritize eidolons and LC on Dan but would it be enough to offset the power level of E0S1 Phai? Or should I bid my dreams of E2S1 DHPT goodbye for E2S1 Phainon instead?

I know E2 is Phainon’s BiS and E0 Phainon wants to be ran sustainless but if DHPT has eidolons, will it make a difference? My Sunday is E0S1

(Posting this on Dan Heng mains coz Phainon mains would probably tell me to get E2 Phai no matter what, do Dan Heng mains have the same opinion? Dan is my favorite character but I don’t want to brick my account by making poor choices)

Start vertically investing or build a 3rd team?

My AshBlade and Sparxie can clear all regular endgame modes (haven’t attempted AA or Starward). I don’t know whether the next step is to vertically invest and future proof my existing teams or start building my 3rd one. My 3rd is either gonna be Phainon or Anaxa. If it’s Phainon, I’d grab E2S1 now but if it’s Anaxa, I’d grab E0 Cyrene instead (I don’t plan on getting her to E2) so I can save up for E0 Anaxa next rerun.

Not to mention how I want E2S1 DHPT (despite not being the most optimal investment gameplay wise) simply bc he’s my favorite character. It’s why I’m using him for my Elation team instead of Huohuo. Honestly, that’s what I’d rather do rn if I’m not thinking about meta

I have events and quests backlogs (3.5 onwards) so grinding wouldn’t be a problem but I can’t have everyone I want all at once yknow so yeah I’m torn

Current teams:
Ashveil E0S0 (Herta), Tribbie E0DDD1, MBlade E0S0 (Tutorial), Hyacine E0S1
Sparxie E0S1, Yao Guang E0S1, Sparkle E0DDD1, DHPT E0S0 (Aeon)
Cerydra E0S0 (Event LC), Sunday E0S1, RMC

(Yes, I’m the one who asked for MOC 12 help yesterday and yes I cleared after switching my teams)

MOC 12 help?

I was so happy to clear 12/12 both PF and Apoc regular mode with my teams, then I got hit by a reality check with this MOC. Any tips on matchups and boss mechanics? My builds could use some help and I’ll be working on those but I’m asking about mechanics in particular (like do I prioritize the DoT shark or the black tide creature in Node 1 Wave 1? AshBlade or Elation for Pompom?) Or do I need eidolons to 3* this MOC given my teams?

Sparxie E0S1, Yao E0S1, Sparkle E0DDD1, DHPT E0S0 (Aeon)
Ashveil E0S0 (Herta), Tribbie E0DDD1, MBlade E0S0 (Tutorial), Hyacine E0S1

How do you build main DPS Sparxie?

Haven’t seen ppl talk about hypercarry Sparxie since SW999 and I have her unbuilt since now. How do you actually build her? Should I focus on SPD or ATK? What speed breakpoints? I don’t see a lot of ppl talk about her hypercarry compared to other sub DPSes like Anaxa, Evernight, Ashveil, heck even MBlade.

There’s so many Sparxie slander lately for apparently having a chopped kit (I’ll never know, I don’t understand Elation) but I can never slander someone who came to my account at 3 pity :P

I run her with Yao, Sparkle, DHPT (but I can grab Huohuo from the shop if she’s *really* needed)

ACCOUNT UNBRICKED

I’m on 75 pity guaranteed so I only had to use the monthly shop pulls to get Mortenax. But I only have 50 pulls to spare for Yao since I also want Phainon, and she got home on the 47th! Ashveil and Sparxie premium officially unlocked

Wish me luck for the 2nd phase since I’m also planning on pulling for Phainon E0S1 + DDD for Tribbie (I know Phai is an E2 merchant but I have two teams already and I wanna unbench my Cerydra)

Edit: In case anyone’s curious, I was also the OP who asked ppl to convince me not to pull for E1 Tribbie, well now you see my decision

Should I keep pulling for E1 Tribbie or save in the hopes of a DHPT rerun?

Got her E0 but lost the rest of my funds to Argenti (bless his heart). I'm thinking if I should pull for E1 for my Ashveil or should I just save my guarantee for the next thing I want: DHPT LC and eidolons. The thing is, we don't know if DHPT will even have a rerun anytime soon. Should I keep pulling or should I save my pulls for a rerun that might not even happen in the next few patches?

Dan Heng is my favorite character, and ideally, he's the first character I want to have eidolons with. But I also want my current characters (aka Ashveil) to be as strong as possible.

I'd have to skip MBlade unfortunately, since atp I'd rather focus on building my characters instead of pulling for new ones (Tribbie was an accidental pull actually, I misclicked the banner going for E1 Sunday and she came early, hence I attempted E1 and lost, but oh well...)

By any chance, is Ashveil okay for E2 Phainon?

I'm trying to pull for E2S1 Phainon from scratch next patch (started at 4.0) but I already have two DPSes, Sparxie and Ashveil. For my supports, I have Cerydra E0S0, Sparkle E0S0, and I could get Robin E0S1 but haven't yet. If ever, my teams would be (1) Phainon, Cerydra, Ashveil, DHPT and (2) Sparxie, Sparkle, RMC, Hyacine.

Honestly, I'm holding back from pulling for Phainon coz I don't know who'd be the best 3rd slot for him given that my Sparkle and RMC are occupied and I'd have to skip Sunday and Yao Guang (for Sparxie, which could've freed one of my supports) if I'm aiming for E2.

I haven't seen anyone talking about Robin with Phainon either, though I'm assuming she's not the best option since her buffs are more teamwide (?). I'm saving Ashveil for his future main DPS but until then, he's the one I'm thinking of to complete my future Phainon team since I'm enjoying him now and would want to play him more.

Just in case this'll help, but I don't care about AA (obviously since I just started) or 0-cycling. I just don't want teams that won't synergize with each other. Thanks!

Do you think DHPT will rerun in 4.4?

I've been playing since 4.0 and fell in love with Dan Heng at first sight and after getting the free DHPT, I want him to be the first character I'd vertically invest in, aiming for E2S1 while I still have quests and exploration to catch up to

Will it be possible for him to rerun in 4.4 as he's no longer free as of 4.1? I really want to get his LC and E2 but Sunday is tempting me especially since he works with DanTe

Also (I can't spoiler tag this for some reason) since Himeko SP has been leaked to want AE teammates it would make sense for him to rerun alongside her right, I also thought of him rerunning with Blade but early 4.3 rerun leaks say otherwise

How to build Sparkle with Sacerdos?

I don't have DDD, and I always see 160 spd but ppl say it's for S5 DDD + Eagle. I'm curious what spd to aim for if I use Sacerdos? What if for 2 pc Messenger + 2 pc Sac?

Also, should I use Lushaka, Keel, or Vonwacq?

I'm building Sparkle with Phainon and Sparxie in mind, if that helps. I don't mind if I don't 0 cycle as well; I just want the build to be viable. Thanks!

I'm at the point of my game where I'm just starting to build relics for my characters already, and my next targets are Sparkle and Sunday (prefarming in the case of Sunday, but I have enough for E0S1). May I know the best relic sets, planars, and builds for them? All discussions I've seen, especially with Sparkle, say 168 spd + Eagle + S5 DDD but I don't have DDD yet.

Sparkle is on S5 Past and Future and I'll be using her in a team of Sparxie, Yao Guang, and Hyacine.

Sunday will be on his sig and I'll be using him in a team of Ashveil and DHPT (I'm waiting for Ashveil's MDPS for the fourth slot; but now I have RMC).

Thank you!

Currently have: E0S1 Sparxie, E0S0 Sparkle (Past and Future), E0S0 Fu Xuan (Landau LC), E0S0 Cerydra (will get event LC in shop), E0S0 DHPT, E0S0 Ashveil (Hunt Herta shop LC), E0S1 Hyacine

Planning to pull for: E1S1 DHPT (MAIN priority, started the game bc of him), E0S1 Yao Guang, E0S1 Phainon (will get E2 one day but for his next rerun I can only go for this), E0S1 Sunday, E0 Blade SP, E0S1 future FUA main DPS (depicted as Feixiao in the photo, hopefully 🦚)

Are these teams ok? I just started playing in 4.0 so it's not like I'm going for AA anytime soon, but how far can these teams get me in MoC, PF, AS? I'm a "pull for who you like" character but I also don't want characters that don't synergize with each other (non-BiS teammates are ok, pls don't call Sunday a brick)

Some notes:
- I don't think I'd pull for a future Elation sustain and I've seen some ppl use Fu Xuan, will she be alright? Or should I use Gallagher or Hyacine for the Elation team instead? Haven't used my Companion Spirit so I can always choose Huohuo but I'm dead set on choosing Robin for collection purposes so I'm gonna have to be convinced hard to choose otherwise

- I know my pulling plans are quite ambitious but I'm still in Penacony, 2.1 Trailblaze quest to be exact. Grinding those jades won't be a problem but if all else fails, my priorities are DHPT, Sunday, Yao Guang, 🦚 in that order

- I don't have DDD and I can't afford to pull for E1 Tribbie for the FUA Team

- Re: the 2nd point. This means my temporary team would likely be: (1) Sparxie - Sparkle - Yao Guang - Hyacine, and (2) Ashveil - Robin - Sunday - DHPT for now. Will that be ok as well? Or should I replace Robin with an attacker, Clara or RMC perhaps?
