How good is Himeko Nova with Cerydra?

I've almost finished building my first two teams, but now I'm kind of stuck with Cerydra. She's basically on her own, and I don't have any spare 5-star characters left to build around her.

I read somewhere that Cerydra works well with the upcoming Himeko Nova, but I'm not sure if she's actually worth pulling just for that.

The main reason I pulled Cerydra was because I really love the character, I also started playing well after Phainon was released, and I only got Cerydra on her latest banner. Because of that, I'm wondering if I should save for Phainon next rerun, i don't think I'll have enough resources to even get his E1 right now.

Devs who made Cerydra be like…

“ok, so, she’s gonna be a niche unit, but she needs to be best in her niche. doesn’t matter is she’s not that massive an increase, because why would we make this unit good, but she’s need to BiS. So, what is her niche? Attack scaling DPSs. So, what attack scaling DPSs are there? Well, theres Phainon. Oh, and Anaxa. Yeah, I think that’s it. Definately no other attack scaling meta DPSs. Not like theres one Thats quantum element and uses about 5 skills in a turn. and definitely not one that uses a bow. No, that’s silly! She’s BiS for all the meta attack scaling skill DPSs!”

(Also, Cerydra doesn’t work with Therta but that’s a problem with Thertas kit not Cerydras)

edit: to clarify, im a Cerydra main, I know how she works in other teams just not BiS and I know she’s BiS for mDPS Rin coming up, I just think it’s funny that she’s not BiS slot for all the 3 relevant characters is her niche (soon to be 4 characters), and even then she’s not a massive increase (without Cyrene at least).

Mod stuff

Managed to claim the subreddit from the other moderators who were doing nothing so I banned as many bots as I could find and added some Automod rules, hopefully that'll help. Will keep an eye out though.

Don't think there's much else to do for now, but if anyone has suggestions feel free to comment.

How much speed does Cerydra need?

I just built up Cerydra's relics for Phainon's team. Does she need speed?

In the game's recommended relics, and on Prydwen and other websites, they recommend at least 140 speed so she can get 160 in battle. I don't understand why she needs this much speed.

On the other hand some people recommend pure ATK on all her relics.

So which one is better for Phainon support? Does Cerydra still need some speed to hit breakpoints?

Context: I have

Phainon e2s1

Cerydra e1s0, using DDD currently

Why not use Aecher with Cerydra?

I am an Archer E1S1 and Cerydra E0S0 haver (might get E2 from the selector in 4.4), a while back I used to believe that Cerydra only worked with Phainon Anaxa and maybe THerta (which isn't true anymore there are more characters that can use cerydra now like Seela) and with E1, Archer and Cerydra synergize very well, when I swapped Cerydra with Ruan Mei, my Archer cleared 2 cycles slower, but I have seen very few people use Archer with Cerydra (which now will be even rarer because of the release of Rin) but why don't we see people use them in one team?

Cerydra Lc worth it ?

Is Cerydra Lc worth it ? I know that you don't need it for a phainon team. But how good is it for a Anaxa and Seele team ? I also have cyrene e2 for anaxa. How much dmg increase is it compared to the f2p ? My Cerydra right now has 3913 atk and 160 spd before battle
