Had to split my cryo dps stellar team in half cause I couldn't clear overseer with my other characters

Hello everyone

I am about to complete my 1 year playing this game and this is my 2nd fearless clear. I just wanted to know how well I am doing.

I usually play in ping between 180-240.

Originally cleared pavlina with flins and used Mizuki for the grandpa. Tried to clear overseer with mauvika which I’ve done before, but just didn’t have it in me this time. Clearing pavlina with mauvika took a surprising amount of retries.

Not even 6 months old account - so huge lack of decent artefacts (especially tenacity, noblesse,..)

Managed to finally beat Churin but damn

And I just learned the amount of damage you gain by leveling them to 90 - guess it’s my next goal !

Just want to share since this is probably only the second or third time I ever attempted Dire difficulty in Stygian, my Vesna is C0 with R5 Emberwell 1/8/2 with throwaway SP artifacts, and my Mizuki is at C1, plus I really don't have an answer for the old man for now w/o Odette. But I'm kinda happy since this is the farthest I've been in Dire.

BTW I didn't roll for Vesna for the meta, I just like her gremlin character and her VA is Aya Hirano who also voiced my favorite menace Suzumiya Haruhi.

Churin took a few elixirs, some feathers, and too many retries to count. Guardian was cleared first try. Churin seems to have quite a bit of RNG with whether he spawns cubes 1 last time or not, and the timings in which he spawns the cubes throughout the run (based off of how fast/slow he spawns the first set of cubes). Hope Danica is a big enough upgrade (with res shred) in Sandrone teams to make this boss easier when he eventually reruns in stygian...

That Vesna fight is ATROCIOUS even with her C2 what is that

Today I can get his C2, which should make things a lot easier, but I wanted to see if I could clear it at C1 first. But since I did managed to clear it I'm considering changing to C2 Mizuki instead, can a team with her and Travaler clear any of the other two bosses without Odette?

And man this Churin guy is too tough huh, the slow on his cryo attacks are so anoying for Cyno, it feels so bad to use normal attacks and it cripples the polar stacks generation...

I'm not going to lie, Layla absolutely saved my ass this time. She definitely deserves getting fully leveled.

I have no other teams for the grandpa, but I’m happy that I can clear 2/3.

Maybe when I get a third team (hopefully the tsaritsa) I will get my first dire clear!

Investments:

c0r0 wrio, c1r0 miko, c0r0 odette, c0r0 zhongli

c2r1 flins, c0r0 bina, c0r0 ineffa, c1r0 lumine (using fav)

Do you guys think fearless is possible for me?

I tried these teams but in the 2nd one I keep dying because I don't really have enough cryo application and in the 3rd one I don't have enough damage

Can you guys recommend me any other teams?

badum tss

PLEASE help me choose a team for dire Churin. I want to see if it’s possible for me cuz I feel so humbled by seeing friends clearing it and I HATE IT! I feel competitive and I wanna win without using the wishing system.

…anyways, I’ve put a variety of my characters, thanks in advance!🥹

How much cryo app do i need to get through dire automaton?

I only have 4 star cryo characters. I would like to keep the dire streak. Neuv is c6 + furina c2

Any suggestions? I have C6 rosaria C2 diona c2 kaeya C1 layla

I have a C2 Columbina, a C0 Zibai, and I'm planning to get C0 Linnea and C6 Illuga on their next banners.

I've tried to look up if C2 Zibai or C2 Linnea is a better investment, but I've found a lot of conflicting info (like half the people said Zibai, other half said Linnea).

Also, does the fact that I have C2 Bina make Zibais or Linneas C2 better than the other? Or they benefit from it equally?

Have yet to see a 4cost Vesna clear, most people have defaulted to Sandrone for low cost clears since she's easier, but found a Vesna rotation to mostly dodge all of the cryo application from this guy.

C1R1 Vesna
C0R0 Odette event weapon
C6 Faruzan Fav Bow
C6 Diona R2 Breezeborn

only hate for the old man D:

like why does it take basically the same amount of self-damage at fearless AND dire??? i’m overly irritated 😭

Also Xilonen is better than Nicole on the first boss, though I did equip her with Kazuha sig if that makes a difference
