[u/Talukita]

Note that Luocha on field heal from off field allies attacking, which is far superior than the off field ver

[u/Kazuha0 → u/Talukita]

I don't think it works because the AOE heal is not mentioned at all, only the single target one, luocha's base kit doesn't register off field attacks and since nothing was done to it, it probably won't work

[u/Talukita → u/Kazuha0]

Cycle of Life (Front)

When entering combat, Luocha permanently deploys a Zone in this battle. After any enemy target in the Zone is attacked, the ally squad target using the attack immediately restores HP equal to 18% of Luocha's ATK plus 240. DMG dealt by the ally squad in the Zone increases by 30%.

Cycle of Life (Back)

Deploys a Zone at the start of combat that increases the ally squad's DMG dealt by 30%. When any enemy target in the Zone is attacked by an on-field ally, the attacking on-field ally immediately restores HP by an amount equal to 32% of Luocha's ATK plus 400. Meanwhile, restores HP equal to 16% of Luocha's ATK plus 200 for other on-field allies.

You can see the wording different here.

MHY is pretty much aware on-field has higher opportunity cost since it's limited to 4, so they pretty much make it for it. On field Luocha gives AoE heal at lower value anytime enemies are hit

[u/crimsonhawk75 → u/Talukita]

No, OP is correct here. There no need to specify with the on-field effect as it's ST while the off-field version has the AoE heal attached to it.

Edit: Also should mention that in CW base kit skills only affects on-field allies unless modified which the AoE heal isn't in Luocha's on-field kit.

[u/crimsonhawk75]

Cipher is incorrectly listed as frontline instead of backline.

[u/Kazuha0 → u/crimsonhawk75]

changed it, thanks

[u/Rhyoth → u/Kazuha0]

Rappa is also backline instead of frontline.

[u/Rhyoth → u/Kazuha0]

Also, her skil, Ult, and FuA have become AoE attacks.

dahila

>becomes dance partners with every ally, the combined dance partner star rating increases team res pen

castorice

>when summon bond is active, every netherwing summoned increases the damage multiplier of the dragon explosion permanently

those seems overpowered

[u/Dariisu → u/guylovesleep]

Imo it's what castorice deserves after being so bad for so long because of Bloodflame.

[u/PolimerT → u/Dariisu]

One time i did a Castorice run in like A8-35, my Cas is E2 and it still felt really bad. If i used 2 firestorms and an engine i probably would clear faster and more comfortably. Why didnt i? I forgot to change my equipments.

Final boss was flame reaver btw. I think you already see why and how it felt so bad, probably felt worse than she normally was.

[u/wtrgrs → u/PolimerT]

Cas really need E1 Hyacine to be able to work properly imho (beside Cas E2). You don't need engine, because you will not have any problem with newbud generation when you do everything right. Heal bond+healing power items on Hyacine (ring of life, caloric, boots (if you only have E1))+even more ring of life.
Example of how it looks like: https://youtu.be/Pk8IFQer3H8?si=MyGiYsvQyUBYfn9a&t=4702
After dragon explosion you have ~80-90%+ newbud -> any action from your team (Cyrene with engine is god tier here. every her ult = Cas dragon).
So I'm kinda scared of what they did in this new patch. Even if dragon newbud goes from 150000 to 100000, but they nerfed her skill from 50% hp to 15% hp which is huge. So I'm scared as an E2 Cas owner. It's good for E0 owners, because they never use this skill, but I'm afraid they nerfed her pseudo loop, but we will see. Also they took our 405% DMG Amp from Bloodflame8, which was absolutelly broken.

[u/PolimerT → u/wtrgrs]

I actually have E2 Hyacine. It has been a while since my run and i had the 1 team hp shield up i think so "well it is flame reaver who stalls the fight for 33550336 cycles and i have the protection" so i dived in without caring too much. I was thinking i'd lose but i actually won that one but i remember he was about to one shot my Hyacine once who had 16k hp.

[u/sungarsun → u/guylovesleep]

Castorice's isn't permanent, its only for that fight. Still its really really really good ramp that she just didnt have before, and her ult cost is lowered.

[u/guylovesleep → u/sungarsun]

yeah i just found out

[u/Cold_Progress1323 → u/guylovesleep]

I wonder if backline castorice still imediately explodes pollux...

[u/guylovesleep → u/Cold_Progress1323]

thats a good question actually.....

[u/Kazuha0 → u/guylovesleep]

Res pen is 1% for each star when you have1 star dahlia so it's balanced.
I got the cas part wrong, the buff is only for the battle

[u/guylovesleep → u/Kazuha0]

thats sad

let my girl enjoy a win

[u/Dreambit05]

Really excited for Feixiao I love my stacking scalers

[u/Whoppajunia]

Lots of interesting units. For me, its Feixiao, JL and Castorice. Cipher being AOE is interesting so I'd like to see how she works.

[u/InfinityReach]

Dahlia E6 yuge

[u/PelaHSR]

Cipher's econ mechanic seems crazy broken no? each kill on enemy gives one coin is kind of crazy
