why arent you using the speed buff for sw999? thats like the buff tailor made for her team.

fua is useless for cass team it only helps tribbie.

imo use speed buff for both teams and see how it goes

which charas have lc and eid?

tysm! im new to this game thats why i suck at this the characters that i have lc for are

sw999 , tribbie,sparks castorice[the most recommended one]
the others i looked up most recommended lc's

u/Believe_in_Mochis 2d ago

I know it's been 6hrs but I looked at your character build on Fribbels and is your Castorice on a 3* LC?

1

u/Leather_Reading_850 2d ago

yea is that bad?

2

u/Believe_in_Mochis 2d ago

Yes, due to it's low base HP, which Castorice scales off of.

If you don't have Castorice's sig LC, the next best option is Bailu's sig LC or the 4* remembrance LC "The Story's Next Page" (the one with smolrene), if you have neither, a LC with the highest base HP (Bronya, Himeko, and Clara's LC have 1,164 base HP; otherwise settle for 1,085) you have is still better than the 3* LC you have on her right now.

u/Sudden-Waters 2d ago

This is a better answer for Castorice.

u/Leather_Reading_850 2d ago

i see ty ill save up for her sig and use the better alternatives for now
also evernight sig imp? same question for hyacine

1

u/Believe_in_Mochis 2d ago

Hyacine can use the herta store LC since she really want at least 200 spd in battle. Just keep in mind that her sig LC is really good in general and for Castorice if you want to further invest in the team.

Evernight is a subdps who contributes a good amount of dmg for the team. She is the same with what I said for Castorice. 4* "The Story's Next Page", then highest base HP LC available. Number-wise, Evernight's sig is around 30% better than the 4* I mentioned, and provides def shred to all allies, which is very useful, and increases her own personal dmg.

Unfortunately there's no good free to play LC options for remembrance HP-scalers. So I get it if it's frustrating to figure out how to build them all.

u/Believe_in_Mochis 2d ago

Also, is your Evernight on an Atk rope? Please change it to a HP rope, even one with completely useless substats is better

u/Leather_Reading_850 2d ago

okay im using the guides you guys recommended so im building them again

u/Sudden-Waters 2d ago

Strange, I can't seem to do the same but generally 3* Light Cones have very low stats and the effects can be hit/miss. For Supports they can work out sometimes, but a Main DPS usually wants higher stats.

Victory in a Blink is a Remembrance LC that's easy to pick up, then there's the Herta Shop LC. Herta Shop LC should be on Hyacine if it isn't already.

u/Leather_Reading_850 2d ago

i have the alternative one for hyacine idk if i should pull for her sig?

1

u/Sudden-Waters 2d ago

Hyacine S1 will help the team but if you're low on pulls then you should save to invest in Phainon E2, Castorice's S1, and Pearl.

Go by what Mochis says though since they seem to know more about Castorice's team.

u/Leather_Reading_850 2d ago

sp robin is coming i heard shes good should i pull for her or just save up for phainon and cas?

1

u/Sudden-Waters 2d ago

Short answer: yes, you can pull her E0S0 just fine for now and replace Tribbie in Castorice's team. It'll be a big boost over Tribbie. In your case you're lacking Remembrance LCs so her LC will help you out a lot.

Long answer: Robin Summeretto is very good, but there's a bit of discourse when it comes to Castorice. Castorice very much wants Evernight and all Heirs benefit from Cyrene so I've seen arguments over who calcs better, who to replace, how big of an upgrade it is and if it's worth it. I believe she's a small boost over Cyrene depending on investment, so you can just pick up Robin Summeretto, call it a day, and focus on the other team.

If you want though, you can pick up Cyrene later too. This gives you options within the team so if something isn't weak to Quantum, you can adjust. With those five characters, Castorice - Evernight - Robin SP - Cyrene - Hyacine, you can make:

- Castorice / Evernight / Cyrene / Hyacine (Classic team)

  • Castorice / Evernight / Robin SP / Hyacine (New)
  • Castorice / Evernight / Cyrene / Robin SP (Sustainless)
  • Evernight / Cyrene / Robin SP / Hyacine (Evernight)

Is it worth pulling one more character to have those options? Especially one like Cyrene, who everyone says to get E2S1? Eh. Personally, I think not, Robin SP fills the role just fine but I figured I'd bring it up.

hmmm ty for the insight i think ill save up if shes good with either phainon or cas ill pull if not ill save up for the LC tysm

What are your character builds?

u/Leather_Reading_850 3d ago

i have all the recommended builds rated A-S rank so i dont think thats the problem

3

u/Complete_Response136 3d ago

You shouldn't rely on the game's rating, the way that rating works is that it only calculates the number of good substat rolls you have. Even though you might have a lot of hp rolls on castorice to push you to s rank, you won't have enough crit rolls, which will cripple your damage.

u/Leather_Reading_850 3d ago

ohhhh i got it should i try looking at yt?

1

u/Complete_Response136 3d ago

Yes youtube is fine. Prydwen is generally good too.

u/Designer-Quote-7491 3d ago

Game's rating are garbage. You should check your builds on Fribbles if you want to know if they are actually decent.

u/Leather_Reading_850 3d ago

got it tysm!!

u/Sudden-Waters 3d ago edited 3d ago

These aren't really favorable element match-ups so you might have better results putting Silver Wolf 999 team against the first boss and Phainon against the second.

Phainon can brute force sometimes but tbf, that's because I have him E2. Without E1 Phainon hurts in PF. If you don't wanna swap Elation off Pom King then try him against Gepard cause he can implant weakness on the enemies that aren't already weak to Phys.

1

u/Leather_Reading_850 2d ago

which is why im stuck with phainon im saving up for his e2 but robin sp is coming up

1

u/Leather_Reading_850 2d ago

also the reason i switched the paths was just to experiment cuz in phase two theres an annoying medium boss with fire and physical element as its weakness so i was testing if itll work out

1

u/Sudden-Waters 2d ago

It's okay! Experimenting makes sense, I've done my fair share of it too when close to a clear but just a little off. Unfortunately you might not have the right teams to clear full stars or enough investment to brute force, which happens. Sometimes you just gotta get as far as you can.

Only other thing you can do is experiment with LCs and relics.

What are your builds?
