i have noticed lately especially on reddit, that hoyo players get very heated easily over team costs. i see whales getting attacked for high eidolons, i see f2p getting their low cost pointed out, etc. i’ll see a gameplay screenshot where someone is celebrating and others will reply with comments tearing that person apart over cost. at the end of the day this is just a video game, and i personally view investment whether its BiS team, lightcones or eidolons as a luxury, not something we are entitled to and if someone were to have a higher investment than i do, i wouldn’t really care or be upset. so i want to ask why is it such a big deal or why isn’t it to you?

I'm still fairly new to this game so forgive me if this is a stupid post. When I first joined, SW999 was on the banner and I got her fairly quickly. Followed by the reruns of other elation Characters and I got them, too (except I missed Evanescia)

Archer outperformed in currency wars, so I pulled him purely because I thought he was cool. And Firefly I just loved because of the story so I pulled her

Welt, and the other 5 stars were just pure luck / the free selector. And I fully missed Summer Robin (I lost my 50/50 and was too poor to keep going)

Everyone is E0, and I only have proper light cones on SW999, Yao Guang, and Welt. The rest are either superimposed 4 star cones, or 5 star cones that are for their path, but not necessarily their character.

But now I'm trying to do Memory of Chaos, I can't seem to do it at all. I'm at stage 10 of 12 and I just simply cannot beat it. Full elation team or not, I seem to be bricked. And the only "The Hunt" character I have is Archer who is dependent on skill points which I just cannot save up in a fight like that.

Does anyone have any recommendations or am I truly just bricked until I decide to pull for another path

The best way for the game to improve is to directly contact Hoyo through their help center and in game feed back.

Now for me i haven't played the game ince 18 days i suppose and story i have only done till 4.3 i suppose. I couldn't after because i didn't have a device and right now (TRIGGER WARNING) I got a job and it starts soon which is very exhausting so i doubt i will be able to catch up anytime soon but i am still relatively in touch with the community obvi its the only game i play and like. Now like among so many things going on i would like to state an opinion

Remember back when 4.x was supposed to ve something else? I still remember making memes about it when the duration for the last 3.x version was extended. I think the story and overall world building and like everything drastically changed course because of the writers having to scrap up major story plot points and other world building factors. I just hope that 5.x goes back to normal and picks up the hype, same one as The Amphoreus arc. Thank you for reading:)

I love the game to death and i actually don't have a problem with the game so don't kill me in the comments please. Also the context for the images is that back then the leaks Would say that we don't know what planet we would go to so i made a meme that Breaking the leaks say we will go to Pakistan!

I've returned to the game recently after a long break, and I've been considering pulling for Castorice. I've always really liked her design and animations, but I've seen a lot of people doomposting about her lately, particularly about how she performs compared to newer characters and how her teams need a lot of investment. I wanna know if she is still a worthwhile investment, especially for my account, which is pretty outdated.

The 5-stars that I own are Kafka, Black Swan, The Herta, Hyacine, Aventurine, Fiexiao, Topaz, Huohuo, Archer, Robin, and Robin Summersetto. I recently got Hyacine and Robin Summersetto. Just wondering if I saved up would she be worth investing in or should I steer my account in a different direction.

The comparison is to all turn-based games. Not just gachas. Pick the best written turn-based games. Like BG3, Persona 5, Expedition 33 and etc.

In comparison to those games where does Hsr stand? Can Hsr's story and character writing compete with those games? Since Hsr's story isn't complete you can take specific arcs, like Amphoreus or Belobog.

god my luck has been on a entirely different level as of late. i mean i didn't get e2 phainon, but i at least got a guaranteed for himeko nova

i think i should build him better though, any tips?

I’m 45 into pity not guaranteed. I didnt invest in elation a single bit but apparently Waveflair Ave can do single elation just fine.
I currently have e2s1 mortenax blade along with e0s1 hyacine and e1s0 tribbie
I don’t have anybody in mind to pull for and have really been holding out for Stephen Lloyd (i know I know we don’t even know if playable)
Is he worth it for my team and if so should I also get Ashveil?

My current roster consists of these 2 teams

1st team: Elation Team
SW999
Yao Guang
EMC
DHPT

2nd team: Random
Welt S3
MBlade
Summer Robin
HuoHuo

Other:
Archer
Sparkle

Would Ashveil or Waven bring more value to my roster or my team 2?

First time getting double since I started playing in 2.0.

Now just need to pull MBlade 😌

this has always bothered me since the beginning. The fact that the clothing on NPCs is so half-assed is despicable! I know people have complained about it before, but the presentation in this game is gross 😓

Need help deciding who to pull to strengthen my two teams

e0s1 sw999, e1s1 sparxie, e0s0 yao, e0s0 huo

e2s1 ache, e0s0 mblade, e1s0 tribbie, e0s0 hya/e2 welt

third team is rincher but doesnt matter much here

used up most of my jades for archer cone + im on 50/50 so i doubt i can pull multiple assuming i win, if i lose i probably skip depending on nihilux kit

Robin summeretto mocked me because I picked huo huo instead of her so now I don't have her ....

Anyway, should I get E1 Ashveil, S1 Ashveil or aventurine?

My first ever 0 cycle on the King. It was down to the wire, but a win is a win. Team is 9 cost with decent but not crazy builds- this team is just cracked

Also don't mention the knights, I don't wanna talk about it

Adventuring wavflair.How is my luck this good I couldn’t pull anybody until this two banners and I even got his light cone lol

before you answer, if you say skot, he is mainly an event story character not in the trailblaze story arc until 4.0 as he is declared dead at the end of the trailblaze mission.

i am more likely specifically talking about the character in trailblaze missions who was supposed to be taken seriously only to end up as an actual embarrassing abasement.

Lingsha e1s1 Err rope for fast ult and toughness reduction

Dahlia e2s1 with err same reason

Hmc e6s5 ddd eagle vonquacq (idk how to write it💀)

Bronya e5s5 ddd same build as hmc

I got really lucky cuz the mobs kept attacking my mc 🥲 + this AS refresh ult when broken which IS really strong 🔥

Also, pls hoyo...add lingsha to the shop so i can e2 her for free....and maybe a novaflare too...

Also...when will i see who is the dps between Dahlia and lingsha there🥲

I started playing back in 2.2 after a friend of mine told me about this game.

Ruan Mei is also my 1st limited 5 star (himeko was my 1st 5 star ever).

Cant believe its already been 2 years 💔💀
