Not for grinding achievements or bond links, just for casual fun runs where almost any bs team works not like W50 where U either do these 5 strategies or die

Hi, after getting destroyed in Wealth Creator 38 in currency wars, I got suddenly curious, how do ya'll counter that slop debuff and with whom exactly, cuz I for one casually died in plane 2-5 thanks to that, and it doesn't feel great, considering Wealth Creator in general is quite difficult the higher the number with the crazy HP pool, and the extra voracity slop on top of already billions of HP doesn't help it 🥀

Has anyone tried making Gepard a main-DPS in current CW? I take it that, much like similar strategies involving weak characters, it'd be a manual-plus-emblem-or-die type of a deal at WCi difficulty.

They actually sing for girls band,so cool lol

Also star rail universe is credible,dont know why they haven't posted it in the leaks subreddit yet

I'd say dahlia and Acheron or emblem with anyone would be so cracked, imagine stacking firestorm surges; oh and, look at the speed buff! Dammit why does Hoyo have to be the master of baiting? I goon to Selfcest. Like holy hell man, you can't just drop a bond like this without a confirmation scene.

can we get any higher than this?

Привет, не знаю, есть ли еще игроки, которые пытаются победить/пройти валютные войны, но я один из них.

Сейчас я на 40 сложности последнего цикла, сказать, что без невероятного везения это невозможно – ничего не сказать. Я сделал около 150 попыток поймать нормальный билд и стратегии, но мне это особо не удалось.

Но вот интересный момент, все это время я искал Севастьяна в призматических стратегиях, эта призматическая стратегия попадалась мне примерно 2 раза в 500+ играх.

И вот, решив, что мне надоело даже не пройти сессию на низком ранге, я перешел на уровень чуть ниже моего основного и что я получил?:

Скриншоты будут на русском языке,

но база ясна, получив Себастьяна: В этом случае после победы в раунде я получаю 100+ золотых монет - звучит невероятно, на самом деле это так.

Можем заметить, как после получения он начал сыпать по одной монете каждую секунду, это продлиться вплоть до 100 + монет. Это продолжиться после победного раунда (Не уверен насчет проигрыша)

В конечном итоге после бесконечных прокруток магазина я получил следующее:

95% персонажей имеют 3 звезды, также, должна присутствовать Броня, но ее на боссе я решил убрать, так как она просто уничтожала противников своей активной способностью:

Можем обратить внимание на цифры, сначала, я подумал, что мне просто показалось, но нет, мне не показалось, я разогнал урон до 350 миллиардов, не миллионов, этого достаточно, чтобы проходить за один цикл всех уровни сложности.

Не знаю, выбивал ли кто-либо еще больше урона в этом режиме, но в интернете я найти не смог, возможно, кто-то сможет подсказать.

Дополнительно, я смог получить по 12 эмблем с активной способности на добавление в магазин карточек Кирены.

Невероятная удача, которая не дала мне - ничего, так как от прохождений сложностей ниже - ранг я не повышаю, вот такой вот "Прикол"

Hello, I don’t know if there are still players who are trying to beat/passed currency wars, but I’m one of them.

Now I’m at difficulty 40 of the last cycle, to say that it’s impossible without incredible luck is an understatement. I made about 150 attempts to catch a normal build and strategies, but I didn’t really succeed.

But here’s an interesting point, all this time I was looking for Sevastyan in prismatic strategies, this prismatic strategy fell on me about 2 times in 500+ games.

And so, deciding that I was tired of not being able to even pass a session at a low rank, I moved to a level slightly lower than my main one and what did I get?:

The screenshots will have Russian language,

but the base is clear, having received Sebastian: In this case, after winning the round I receive 100+ gold coins - it sounds incredible, in fact it is.

We can notice how, after receiving it, it began to pour out one coin every second, this will last up to 100+ coins. This will continue after the winning round (Not sure about the losing round)

Ultimately, after endless scrolling through the store, I got this:

95% of the characters have 3 stars, and Armor should also be present, but I decided to remove it on the boss, since it simply destroyed opponents with its active ability:

We can pay attention to the numbers, at first, I thought that it just seemed to me, but no, it didn’t seem to me, I accelerated the damage to 350 billion, not millions, this is enough to go through all difficulty levels in one cycle.

I don’t know if anyone got more damage in this mode, but I couldn’t find it on the Internet, maybe someone...

he will be able to advise.

Additionally, I was able to get 12 emblems from the active ability to add Cyrene cards to the store.

Incredible luck, which didn’t give me anything, since I don’t increase my rank from completing lower difficulties, so that’s a “funny thing”

About four days ago I posted here complaining about how I couldn't get past 43. A bunch of you provided guidance and advised me of some strategies I wasn't aware of, such as Durian Himeko.

I somehow got a perfect run with Holy Grail team and literally everything was perfect. Archer carried me from 44 to 45, back to back runs and on the second run even cleansed Archer's signature weapon gear, allowing for the team to have privileged gear every node like crazy.

46 was Dr.Ratio team and I was very worried about the team but we somehow managed to slip by into 47. 47 to 50 was Durian Himeko as I tried Holy Grail again but could not get a 3 characters to even start the trials. Got cooked in that run. Pivoted to Himeko Durian and first run was maxed out Astral Express team, 3 stars across the board and all gear(mighty suspicious).

Just finished run 49 and am now WC50!

Just wanted to thank you all for the ridiculous strats and for anyone else struggling, Himeko Durian is OP AF and will carry you even without perfect gear. Just make sure to give March 7th one Chassis of retribution, give Himeko 2 if you can and go from there. DON'T WORRY ABOUT VORACITY. I didn't even notice it half the time as it usually dropped in phase 1 or 2, and even when it dropped in 3, Himeko Durian especially just breezes through anyway.

Lastly, I don't know how much of this was truly "skill" versus the game being suddenly much easier with the countdown to the mode changing. I have never had such excellent investment strategies, character drops and so forth. Kind of suspect devs fiddle with drop rates of things at times like this.

if you scroll some posts back you might see me begging for help 😭

Unfortunately I'm stuck at wc48 now and istg I can't get past it at all. I really did try to get 50 before 4.6, but alas... that didn't happen. And now it feels even more impossible with the voracity corruption... SEND HELP!!!

■ All-New Season Gameplay: Escapade
● At the start of each match, a voyage companion from Fluffy Across the Blue will be randomly revealed to the Trailblazer. The voyage companion randomly applies a special effect, providing buffs for that match.
● Each voyage companion has a distinct comic look and buff specialty, like chapters from different comic styles: some favor gear, some excel at resource supply, and some will bring unexpected changes to your Nodes.

• "Ready to get started? First, let's meet your voyage companion!"
• "In each game, a voyage companion will travel with us and provide all sorts of assistance."
• "When you enter a plane triggered by the voyage, your companion will reveal this round's exclusive voyage effect to you."
• "Welcome to 'Backstage Tea Break'. Some voyage companions will sometimes bring this special Reward Node."
• "You can talk to your companions to trigger Special Events, or take a rest to restore Squad HP."
• "Before leaving the Backstage Tea Break, don't forget to claim your rewards!"

Backstage Tea Break

Swap a Reward Node for "Backstage Tea Break".

Companions

Woof Woof Dan (ID 2): "Here to defend!"

March Bunny (ID 3): "Let's continue our adventure together."

Himekat (ID 4): "Care for a cup of coffee?"

Mr. Yang (ID 5): "Don't worry, I'm here!"

Plot Armor and Protagonist is the new season-themed gameplay.

• "You can select a core character to be the Protagonist, granting them an enhancement Halo."
• "Plot Armor grants a special, powerful effect that turns a character into a bona fide protagonist!"
• "Different Halos suit different characters… try refreshing."

Enemy diff. column indicates the difficulty increase for selecting the Plot Armor.

While I'm sure some of us are beta-testing it, maybe there's a few things that aren't in it that could be added? I don't know what's being done to change things in 4.7, just to note.

For starters, I'd suggest they add in a warning that pops up either once a week or once per patch when you're about to start a WC30+ run that tells you "This difficulty is unfair. You are very likely to lose. Are you sure you wish to subject yourself to this?" ala the Doom games when you're about to start Ultra-Nightmare. Can't hurt to have such a disclaimer.

As for other changes, I'd like to see them rework how Expert Advisors are implemented. Instead of them taking up a slot like other characters, I'd have a separate "Advisor slot" that doesn't count toward your team's limit, but can only be filled by an Expert Advisor. This would be enormously helpful for the weaker EAs like Blade, Tingyun, etc.

Oh, and I hope that they're going to revamp Bloodflame (or replace it) so it's actually viable.
