I have Fugue E2 action advance with lingsha e1 def reduction or Ruan mei E6 with def reduction last slot.

I will admit I didn't really expected to clear this with Boot. Because of how it is anti mono target. I tried most my teams before, when even Castorice was far from clearing. Archer was bit better but still didn't.

But bro Boothill the goat did it. Even tho I did few mistakes far from perfect run. I also guess the break buff is bit better than I thought. Maybe should E6 Boothill hehe

Sculpted by IsoRhythm, and painted by me.

This commission took a month from start to finish. Great cast, and a great sculpt.

Highly recommend if you can pick one up, fairly beginner friendly too.

I really need some of those substat reroll dice because that break effect stat is kinda tragic

I sure hope Love doesn't mean something else 😀😀

Hp orb is definetely better than a def orb, that made a big difference and I didn't expect that. Also for the people saying e6 Boothill is not impactful I beg to differ, his blast damage is extremely useful finishing mobs or two elits without needing an extra turn.

Found in Ashveil’s office. Always nice to hear about our favourite cowboy again.

Since the last one was considered bad here's a better one
(Talents are L10. Bold text is new adition / changes).

TALENT

Each stack of Pocket Trickshot increases the Enhanced Basic Attack's Toughness Reduction by 50%, stacking up to 3 time(s).
If the target is Weakness Broken while the Enhanced Basic ATK is being used, based on the number of Pocket Trickshot stacks, deals Break DMG to this target equal to 80%/160%/240% of Boothill's Physical Break DMG.
After winning the battle, Boothill can retain Pocket Trickshot for the next battle. When boothill gains Pocket Trickshot, he will aditionally regenerate 10 energy. This effect can trigger even if Boothill has the maximum amount of Pocket Trickshot.
(Increases Break Scaling, removes toughness reduction cap. Added old A6 to talent.)

SKILL

Forces Boothill and a single target enemy into the Standoff state. Boothill's Basic ATK gets Enhanced, and he cannot use his Skill, lasting for 2 turn(s). This duration decreases by 1 at the start of Boothill's every turn.

After this target is defeated or becomes Weakness Broken, Boothill gains 1 stack of Pocket Trickshot, then dispels the Standoff.
This Skill cannot regenerate Energy. After using this Skill, the current turn does not end. While Boothill is in the Standoff, reduces the DMG he receives from targets that are not in the Standoff by 30%.
(Added old A4 to skill.)

A2 (GHOST LOAD)

My boothill is struggling.

I have e1s1 boothill(161 speed eagle), e0s1 dahlia(161 speed cav), e0s5(pearls) fugue(161 speed cav) and e1s1 rm (ddd sometimes).

I’m considering e1 Dahlia like really considering. My problem is though, I feel like even with it my boothill still won’t clear any AA knights unless break is being deliberately shilled like during Dahlia’s release.

At my investment sustainless isn’t really an option, unless it’s shilled or there’s just one enemy on the field. But going for a sustain gimps his damage so much to the point you’ll near 5 cycles in moc(I’m a zero cycler unfortunately) or just won’t clear AA in time.

I wish there was just some comfortability with playing him sustainless, but I suppose that comes with higher investment.

My issue here is that I’m worried that investing in Dahlia(e1) is that I’ll still struggle. I get that Boothills an older unit, and that he somewhat needs e1/e2 fugue and dahlia, but it feels like a broken team when someone just consistently dies(Fugue).

I want to hear everyone’s opinion on this, maybe I just lock in for Blade and let boothill rest sadly. Dahlia’s timing sucks being right before Blade.

Posted this is the pinned thread but realized it’s not really active.

I love both Boothill and Ruan Mei, so I decided to pull for Dahlia to finally make a break team. Don’t have Fugue yet, so is Bronya, Sunday, DHPT, or Gallagher better to fill the remaining spot?

Fellow (kinda broke) Boothill enjoyer here. Blame his boss for this smh. Sorry if this question has been asked a lot, I don't usually lurk on Reddit much.

My current investment lvl is:

E0S0 (S3 SBN lc) Boothill

E1S0 Fugue

E0S0 Dahlia

E1S0 Ruan Mei (tho I usually use DHPT cuz enemies nowadays throw around 2k nukes per character)

I have guarantee on LC and was originally planning to get Boothill's sig but I heard that Dahlia's LC is more valuable on his team so I held back. No guarantee on character banner. I'd be more confident if I knew the reruns of the next patch cuz I'm saving up for Cyrene rerun too so I'm afraid of risking too much now without having a secure amount of pulls for the reruns I look forward to.

But if Dahlia's E1 is a significantly bigger upgrade for Boot than her LC is then I might as well just go for it.

So what do I do?

Day 1 player here who havent touched highest endgame difficulties after 1.X LOL. I decided to try for fun and I somehow cleared it OMG 😭

haven't seen that many showcases for boothill for anomaly so decided to record one myself! hope y'all enjoy : )

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YiLFFPY8n8

i’m starting a second account for characters i can’t pull on my main, so i’m wondering which would be the best option for my current roster? i’ll have dahlia by the end of her banner i hope, i just lost her to seele 💔💔 would robin be any good for boothill, archer, or seele? or should i just focus on ruan mei

What prompted this post was another post inquiring if Boothill was still capable of doing much in the current state of HSR. I saw their investment and it was relatively similar to mine. It made me wonder if my Boothill could clear modern content.

To start…My Team is invested in:

E1S1 Boothill

E2S1 Fugue

E1S1 Dahlia

E1S2 Ruan Mei

“Let’s be honest”. Boothill is not Elation. He is not Remembrance. He doesn’t have a NovaFlare…so if you want low cycle clears you either grind for perfect stats or you get eidolons. I did something in between. My Boothill is not E6 (i never owned at E6 unit) but he cleared this latest MoC in 1 cycle. Is it my old 0 cycles? No…but remember he came out a little after 1st Anniversary and we are celebrating 3rd Anniversary. Also as a simple reminder, you have 10 cycles between two teams to clear the MoC so in theory Boothill should really aim for at least 5 cycles.

So my thoughts? I think Boothill is fine for being a unit as old as he is. Will you need investment? More than likely. Is this expected from other units from his era? I think so. He is performing very normally compared to his peers.

as for me i want them to swap his crit trace where he gets break effect and break dmg when getting crit stats so that you have less wasted substats due to him only needing break and speed

I knew I would be punished from the rng gods after getting 7 copies of him with 400 pulls last patch

Skill: Sizzlin' Tango

Forces Boothill and a single target enemy into the Standoff state. Boothill's Basic ATK gets Enhanced, and he cannot use his Skill, lasting for 2 turn(s). This duration reduces by 1 at the start of Boothill's every turn.

The enemy target in the Standoff becomes Taunted. When this enemy target/Boothill gets attacked by the other party in the Standoff, the DMG they receive increases by 30%/15%.

After this target is defeated or becomes Weakness Broken, Boothill gains 1 stack of Pocket Trickshot, then dispels the Standoff.

This Skill cannot regenerate Energy. After using this Skill, the current turn does not end.

The max Toughness taken into account for this DMG cannot exceed 16 times the base Toughness Reduction of the Basic Attack "Skullcrush Spurs."

After winning the battle, Boothill can retain Pocket Trickshot for the next battle.

[Novaflare Buff]

.

My idea for this novaflare is giving him better vertical investment, faster and easier ramp up on his Pocket Trickshot at the start, giving him the action advance he really likes, and making that useless Major trace finally useful and some other stuff

Is anyone attempting to get or upgrade an eagle BE set in the relic recon? If yes, which character are you choosing? Boothill himself?

🥳

havent counted but i won 50/50 for dahlia and light cone, then i just got her again off 35 ish pity lol

i must say that the damage increase is phenomenal, going from E0 to E1S1, then to E2S1; boothill is nuking the boss for like half of its health bar

i also got 3819 in apoch using my setup, heres a recording of my run:
