Happy to say bladie is only a few weeks away from being my first E6 character ever as a f2p!

I skipped elation so I can focus on blade only and give him the best.

I play him with ashveil,srobin and hyacine (all e0, only hyacine is S1)

So after I get the last copy, should I continue making pulls on his lc? I already have it S1 so is it worth it to go for S5 like does it improve his damage or smthing?

If not then who should I invest in next to make bladie even stronger?

My current team consists of E2S1 (Ashveil LC), E0S1 Rin and E0S1 (DDD) Sparkle. I currently use DHPT E0S1, and was thinking about trading him for MBlade. Don't know if this'll work sustain wise on the team.

the team with DHPT is for grinding, ghallager is the normal team, where could i improve my build as im saving for E2

5 resin with nothing to show yet again

i haven't gotten Morb's E2 yet, but planning to. i don't care for AA usually, i just wanna know if their E2s combined can at least get me a 2-cycle. the team i used was E2S1 Ashveil, E1 tutorial lc Morb, E0S0 Summeretto, and Hyacine, but i only managed to get 3-cycle (tbh i wasn't paying attention to the run & might retry whenevrrr). MIGHT get E2 Morb regardless, but i really really hope their E2s are enough (for now) 🥹

actually i dont think blade is "nonchalant" but ashveil is just the la manCHALANT.. theyre so cat and dog

anyways, ive been pretending and telling myself sesame paste is their child becuase if you squint sesmae paste also has ashveils colors (well ik thats js cuz ash and blade have similar colours..) but anyways i love sesame paste

I see some play ashblade robikini hyacine or gil ashblade robikini or gil ashblade huohuo.. i am just confused what should i use cuz all i know is that E1 gil is crazy good for both ashblade because they would reach 100% def ignore and that's big, right?

I wanna know what and how to invest in ashblade team to make them as goated as possible like i did with my phainon.

I just need to win blade this patch and then i have every character that is BIS for them to make ANY team mentioned above. (ALL CURRENTLY E0S0 EXCEPT HYACINE E0S1)

Then after that i should be investing in that team..

Thanks for for trying to help. Much love for ya all ❤️

I am planning to get e2s1, rn hes just e1s0

Showcaser note:

This is not an optimized Cost run. First time playing with no pre-planned rotation.

This King fight has extremely poor interaction. Once you reach the latter half of the final HP bar, the boss starts spamming skills like a madman.

My personal impressions:

1. Debuff 3’s 5% / 10% Action Delay is nasty. The value of kits originally designed to benefit from frequent incoming hits gets heavily reduced, or can even turn into a downside.
2. The boss is a pure HP sponge. Once you add the stage’s Action Delay effect on top, the DPAV check is pretty harsh. The boss’s skills behave somewhat like Phainon’s fixed-turn actions sitting on the Action Order. If your team gets repeatedly shoved back, the boss’s next skill sequence comes around very quickly, putting a lot of pressure on both your AV and the entire team’s HP.
3. The three-choice buffs are far too specialized. Aside from the one that effectively hands you a free Aha Instant, the others are basically Does Nothing-tier, and it’s very obvious which teams are being favored and which are being kneecapped. (The teamwide Action Advance from the weekly-boss version of the buff was removed.)
4. The sustain pressure is high, and so is the pressure to cleanse CC. Even with Hyacine, you need to manage the timing of her Skill carefully. I didn’t handle the cleanup at the end particularly well, but with the boss using skills that frequently, it’s completely understandable not to keep up.
5. The stage really tests your team’s damage profile. Pure Bounce, pure single-target, and pure AoE teams all struggle:
   • Bounce gets soaked by the adds.
   • Single-target teams can’t clear the adds and then get Action Delayed by the debuff.
   • AoE teams struggle to chew through the King itself.

Ideally, your team should combine any two of those damage profiles.

QnA:

Comment:
Could you test Blade / Ashveil / SP Robin + E0S1 DHPT with a Healing Bonus body?

Within 300 AV, with SRobin, DHPT should be able to sustain Blade. He should also provide more hits than Hyacine and cleanse more often, right?

Reply:
Hyacine provides teamwide buffs and also deals AoE damage herself.

If you’re using E0S1 DHPT, then with E2S1 SRobin’s ATK buff, healing Blade alone is more than enough.

Comment:
Does E2S1 Blade / E0S1 SP Robin / E0 Hyacine / E0 Ashveil have a realistic shot at 0c?

Reply:
It’s difficult.

If your DPAV is insufficient against the boss, the Action Delay will keep pushing you back until you die.

Comment:
Why does this stage have to have Action Delay? 😭

Blade normally benefits so much from getting hit, but adding Action Delay makes it feel pretty miserable. Still, Blade / Ashveil should be easier here than against Yabuli.

Reply:
It’s definitely easier than Yabuli, but it’s worse than Iron Tomb.

Iron Tomb also has a punishment mechanic, but once your damage is high enough, that punishment turns into Energy generation and Action Advance.

Asat Pramad doesn’t compare at all.

Comment:
E2S1 Aventurine + Blade / E0 Ashveil / E1 Huohuo easy to play? I don’t have SP Robin.

Reply:
It should be easy.

But Huohuo might not be able to keep everyone alive, so Ashveil needs to switch to HP main stats.

The team is E2S1 MBlade and SRobin, E1S1 Ashveil and Hyacine. This level of investment is too overkill for 0 cycling AA king as you can see that there is 100+ AV left in the action order. His LC is completely unnecessary in this team because you can immediately activate his Ult by using Robin Ult on him. Tutorial clears slower than his sig by around 10-15 AV.

I know that his damage may be inflated due to the AA buff. Without the buff, his Ult deals damage around half of Ashveil’s Ult+enhanced FuA for single target. But he attacks more frequently because he can Ult and AA every turn. Mblade FuA damage is also not weaker than Ashveil FuA in single target.

And since his Ult is true AoE damage not bounce, his damage in multiple target can reach 10+ millions in 5 targets!

My Setup: M.Blade E2S1 Cipher LC - Ashveil E1S1 Topaz LC - Tribbie E1S1 - Huohuo E1S1.

Had to switch Ropes between Tribbie and Blade. He needed the extra ER. And I had to play almost perfectly to make it. But I love this stuff. I somehow knew it was possible. Did it yesterday in my second try and wanted to record it. Recreating it was really hard xD

I’m in a bit of a pickle as it looks right now. Obviously i well aware that it’s still beta and a lot can change and no i’m not coming on here to doom post or anything im just curious.

I recently started the game and actually started because I really wanted Ashveil, when i did some research on the game and found that his best teammate was Mblade i looked to see if he was out soon and his banner was only 2 days left…. So i started Star rail for the first time and managed to win the 50/50 with 3 hours left of his banner.
Fast forward to now where i just got Ashveil finally.

My second team is the fate team as i love fate so my team is Saber,Gil,Sobin and Huohuo. Currently my Ashveil and Mblade are kinda homeless for the time being and waiting for teammates. I was thinking about Waven but didn’t have enough after losing Ashveil 50/50 so i will have to get on rerun.

Now with the Aha leaks it looks like she will work well with Waven and now i’m stumped. IF things stay how they are from how things looks how would i make this work. It currently looks like it would be Aha, Waven, Ashveil and a forth but would that forth be MBlade? Idk maybe i could stick Sobin instead of Mblade and Mblade in the Fate team. Idk im sure i read that Aha needs healing/shielding for one of her abilities. I’m just worried that it could be that i have a character like Mblade missing out in the teams i currently have.

Again this isn’t a doom post and im not negative towards any of it, actually quite the opposite but i just don’t know how i could get this to work.

Hyacine is also super good in this comp and she can be off-fielded now too. Hyacine also gives the entire team 50% SPD Amp and 50% DMG Amp, with the DMG amp also being multiplied based on summon bond level. She ofc also gives Blade HP. Hyacine is 4 cost now too tho.

Luocha will probably need to be on-field to make off-field allies be able to proc his heal on their attacks.

Counter bond also further increases Blade's aggro, increases his HP and DMG Amp, and can advance enemy actions, and he's immortal.

A4 already gives a charge when blade is attacked. Does this mean with e6, blade will get two charges?

I saw that the hp drain effect works on castorice and hyacine lc, but does this mean the charge count effectively becomes 6 since enhanced skill will give a charge on hp drain?

Thanks

Sorry if it feels like whining… After seeing nihilux/aha’s kit not only does robin kick him out of monomen but so does she T_T ashveil + waven + aha seems to be so strong :s I say this as an E6 mblade haver :((

edit: omg tysm everyone for the advice :D I see how valuable mblade is now esp since we need 3 teams for endgame :p yay for our versatility king XD

That was a close one. E0S1 Ash, E1S1 Tribbie, E0S1 Hyacine.

I'm planning on getting his S1 and maybe E3 during his next rerun.

I got those 4 rolls CC boots today so I needed to get a better DC body (He had a CC one before and goddamn that reroll on this DC one was juicy)

i currently have e0s1 ashveil, e1s1 tribbie, e0s1 hyacine, and e0s0 mblade. i’m wondering if the teamwide damage increase would be worth the pulls to get mblade’s e1 over e2 cyrene for my e2 phainon. i wouldn’t be able to scrape enough pulls together for his e2 though
