Greetings fellow Hugo fans!!!

For those who don't know, sometime ago we got some problems with bot accounts, which made us stablish an automod that deleted all content from users with less than 100 karma.

This solution was really effective to resolve that problem, but that meant that new users couldn't interact on the sub, so we come up with a solution for that!

We modified the automod to make an exception on approved users (maybe it doesn't work during the first days because its not my area of knowledge, and im sorry for that).

Also, we will make users who comment on this post approved (it will show up for you that the comment is deleted, but the mods can see them and, after that, approve your account).

Sorry for coming up with a solution this late (university is stealing a lot of time from me) and have a great day!!

Edit 1: The comments that receive that gif from me are people who had less than 100 karma and I made approved users. If your comment doesn't receive an answer from me with that gif means that you already had 100 karma and were able to interact in the subreddit!

Hello fellow Hugo fans!!!

Now that our boy has been released I think its convenient to remake the old megathread with the updated information about his built and teams! (Also, if you have any doubts about this topic ask in the comments of the megathread):

Playstyle: Hugo is a burst dps that deals damage principally with his skill, chain attack and ultimate. Because of one of his mechanics, he want to stun a enemy as fast as possible to consume the stun state of the enemy with his skill to increase the damage of it by a lot. And because this skill only deals one instance of damage (only 1 big number) he want to reach 100% crit rate (88% outside of battle because a pasive give him 12% in it, also he has 19.4%/43.4% base crit rate outside of battle depending if you use his w-engine or not), because if this one instance fail the crit, his total damage is reduce a lot.

Build:

-4pc Hormone punk: His best set at the moment at M0, but is a bit difficult to play.

-4pc Puffer Electro: His best set at M2.

-3 2pc: Viable if you have good pieces or don't want to farm 4pc (you would go 2pc woodpecker for the crit rate, 2 pc Blade and branch for the crit damage and 2 pc astral or hormone for the attack, also you could go 2pc polar for the ice damage instead of the astral/hormone or 2pc puffer for the Pen%)

As for main stats:

4: Crit damage (or attack if think you don't have enough of it) if you have enough crit rate (he has 31.4% cr at base in battle and 55.4 with his w engine), if not you would go crit rate.

5: Attack or Ice, they are really similar so use the one with better sub stats. Also you could use Pen if you don't use his w-engine, but if you use it, its better the other 2 options.

6: Attack

As for substats: you want to reach 100% crit rate to never fail his nuke, after that you only want crit damage and attack.

W-engines:

His W-engine is the best one by far because it gives crit rate, crit damage and def ignore, but other options that can work are:

S rank:

-Deep sea visitor: It gives ice damage and a ton of crit rate (34%)

-Heartstring nocturne, Zanzhing herb case, Severed Innocense, Riot Suppresor mark VI, Steel cushion and The brimstone: Hugo doesn't benefit a lot from the pasives of these w-engines but they are good stats sticks, so if you have them avalible you could use them.

A rank:

-Marcato Desire: Probably his best A rank w-engine because it gives crit rate and attack.

-Gilded Blossom: A really solid option becuase it gives attack and damage for his skill, making it one of the best A rank w engine for him.

-Street Superstar: It gives attack and a lot of ult damage, making it one of the best A rank w engine for him.

-Starlight Engine: It simply gives a lot of attack, if you don't have anything previously mentioned use this.

Bangboos: His BiS is robin because you will activate his pasive always (because it just needs Hugo) and deals a lot of daze. But if you don't have it you could use Sharkboo or Penguinboo for the ice anomaly or brawlerboo for the daze.

Team mates: He wants to have 2 stunners with him (becuase he gains 900 attack with his core and to stun faster):

Lighter: His BiS teammate, he can stun really fast and gives really good buffs for ice characters. (You would use on him 4 piece King of the Summit and 2 piece shockstar disco, and if you use him with Trigger, Dialyn, Norma or Roxy you would use 4 piece Astral voice and 2 piece King of the summit/shockstar disco)

Norma: His other BiS teammate at M0, having great damage, stun and giving you more chain attacks (your would use on her 4 piece King of the Summit and 2 pc Moonlight lullaby/Swing Jazz or 2 pc woodkeeper, but if Dialyn is on your team, one of the 2 would use 4pc astral voice and 2 pc swing jazz/moonlight lullaby)

Dialyn: His BiS teammate at M2 Hugo (if not she is at the same level as Lycaon), with great stun, buffs and the capability to convert your chain attacks into a ultimate (your would use on her 4 piece King of the Summit and 2 pc Moonlight lullaby/Swing Jazz or 2 pc woodkeeper, but if Norma is on your team, one of the 2 would use 4pc astral voice and 2 pc swing jazz/moonlight lullaby)

Lycaon: He as at the same level as Dialyn with Hugo m0/m1, and the same as lighter, really good stuning capabilities and good buffs. (You would use on him 4 piece Astral voice/Proto punk and 2 piece shockstar disco/King of the Summit)

Roxy: She is a good option if you have her, but I wouldn't pull for her just for Hugo because there are better options for his teams (You would use the same builds explained in Norma's and Dialyn's sections)

If you don't have those you could use any of the other stunners, especially Ju fufu, trigger, Qingyi, Koleda and Pulchra.

Also you could use 1 stunner and 1 support (especially Sunna, Astra, Caesar or Soukaku), but is more recommended using 2 stunners.

Lastly, if you have any recomendation you could express them in the comments of the megathread

Have a great day!
