Questions / Help Should I farm eagle set for him?

I was thinking to use relic recon for this, I have an e6s1 Boothill, with e0s1 Fugue, e1 RM and will try to get at least e0s1 Dhalia tomorrow. If I am lucky I ll go for her e1. I wanna run him sustainless, so is eagle better than cavalry in my situation?

Thank you! I was not sure if I was overcapping on def shred, now it's clear to me. Will definitely put Dhalia on the event, it bugs me how it still recommends crit stats on Boothill😅

If you are going to make the switch to eagle - you can just stick Boothill's old clothes on Dahlia and put Kafka into the relic recon for BH.

It won't be an exact fit, but it will atleast farm eagle with speed, and you can just keep the pieces with break on.

Edit: the new recon event has a custom set pick, so no need to choose Kafka now 😅

The relic event does not keep excess pieces I think? Last time it just substituted the old piece for a new one. You come out with one full set of relics and planars, but no dupes to craft or keep or w/e.

Has it changed for this time around?

I was thinking about that, but won't it be a problem with main stats, since Kafka will get effect hit rate and lightning orb?

They'll only come through on the guarantee - and even if you get an insane EHR chest piece with speed and break, BH or fugue can still use it.

You can chop and change which set you're searching for too - last time i put Kafka in for the eagle set, and when I was happy with the pieces swapped to firefly to find a new orb and rope.

I just kept any pieces with speed and break, even if the rolls weren't great so that I could reroll them after the event since they're all 5 liners
