@@violet.a_o thats the pronunciation ik from BH3 and the characters are technically the same just different universe but if they decided to change the pronounce for this universe so be it
Was mildly interested after being hooked on Genshin since launch and after playing for 5 hours my mind is blown how good it is. How am I supposed to juggle them both?
@@trevorbrooks7816 don't know, have 100% of all, including new zone for o ver one week, did the last released regions in less than three days after release :))
Tl; dr: don't sleep on free characters! They will carry you in early and in mid game. Asta is decent as a fire buffer/dps. March gives us a guaranteed counter and shield which is great in early game. And please don't sleep on Natasha because there's only TWO healers im game at the moment and she's a free character. Heals upon using her skill or her ultimate are a god-send, especially in abyss. And lastly, the MC is there for a reason. Physical is mostly for breaks and she/he has AoE skill which deals MASSIVE damage. Edit: a war started in the reply section. Be careful.
It's Hoyoverse. Free characters will be most likely unusable beyond start/mid game. We got lucky with Genshin that made the OG viable after Dendro dropped, we won't be again.
So I lost my 50/50 to Queen Bronya, then got Seele. As a Captain in Honkai Impact for the past 5 years, let me tell you how right this is. It's odd seeing Seele take the wheel as the aggressor, but they compliment each other perfectly. It's so good seeing them in this alternate universe. I love how the game is like a mix of Honkai and Genshin while being completely its own turn style RPG. The menu, the setups, etc is all Genshin pieces. The Honkai futuristic style and the fact that we have 4 Honkai Impact characters playing these alternate versions of themselves makes this game a gem for both parties. Just don't go into this expecting HI or GI because it's very much its own thing while taking pieces from its older sisters. Give it a shot!
4 Honkai characters alternate and Welt, who is very likely to deadass be the same Welt that was the herrscher of reason. I am so going for the HI3 people once I have them all (Seele/Himeko, Bronya, Welt, Nat)
@@Mizu-Takasuuu yes me too! I pulled Clara off my discounted starting banner and she’s AMAZING with March! I also got insanely lucky and pulled a copy of Tingyun!
@@KoiPondDreams dayum nice!!! Can u tell me ur comp? Mine is: march, clara, asta, mc Im thinking about changing mc to pela so I can def break and deal more aoe damage with clara’s skill
Hey, with like a few months, you'll probably get enough 5 stars to like pull for whomever you want and have fun with them. Star Rail, is kinda tough but extremely generous with it mechanics
I just got Bronya last night and her utility to the team is incomparable. I also love her personality story-wise being a fierce acting commander. Her animations for the ult is also great. Can easily say one of the best character rn. 😅❤️
This game just gives me so much happy feelings. The story is very catchy ever since the starting cutscene, the cast of characters is super charismatic and the combat is SO FUN. I've never played much turn based RPGs besides some Pokemón and I just love how right the combat here feels, specially how every class is important and the diversity of comps it has going. I got Bailu from the beginner's wish and I'm pretty satified with that, I really wanted Welt or Himeko but every single character in this game feels like it has a use so far They've also nailed the male character designs, I'm ignoring seele because the lion guy is just so damn hot-
Man I wanted Sampo before but now that I know he synergizes with Serval I REALLY want him. Also nice to see a break down on Yanqing. He's my 1st 5-star!
Thank you for making this video. You're one of my favourite theory crafters because of the way you speak and the cadence in your voice. It's not too fast or loud and I feel that I absorb info better that way. This is really helpful, thank you again^^
I got both Tingyun and Asta from my first 20 pulls, but to be honest I'm kinda confused about whom to keep in my party once I get more characters right now, since their roles seem a bit redundant when within the same party. I plan to main Herta eventually once I get her though.
I love Qingque! Her rng makes her the ultimate embodiment of a gacha game character. One VERY IMPORTANT THING to note about her kit though (and this might be a bug), her AoE basic attack *does not generate a skill point*, which can really mess up the flow of your turns, especially if you’re sinking 3-4 points into her for her 15% stacking damage buff and enhanced basic attack. Overall, probably my 3rd favorite character mechanically, just behind Seele and Welt (I like taking turns), and definitely worth trying out, even if you don’t end up investing a ton into her. Edit: After thinking about it, She’s definitely not top 3, she’s my favorite character to play.
I got my little cryo preservation guy at 50 pitt on the starter banner. I was a little disappointed at first given all the other options, but his shielding on everybody is proving to be really great and I've been saved so many times by his revivability
I'm going to sleep now but I'm gonna watch this while having my morning cup of tea as soon as I wake up! So hyped to open up the game for the first time!
Slow bronya can allow one of her faster teammates to take another turn, boost damage AND remove debuffs. Fast Bronya with wind 4-piece can basic attack and then use her ultimate to (potentially) get another turn after her teammates before enemies, depending on which enemies there are. Slow Bronya is way more consistent at ensuring your main DPS gets as much uptime as possible.
Got Yanqing and I am so happy, I just felt like Dan Heng was falling behind the MC, March and Asta at a very rapid rate. I also really like the ice element so having actual damage from an ice unit is nice, sorry March (I know she is a shielder and like her for this role) and Herta but that damage is too low.
I really loved Serval, I'm so glad she is free, haha. Her design is amazing, also, I'm glad the concept of Xinyan from Genshin was improved here, I think it fits better with the game vibe, I always thought the rockstar character was too modern for the Genshin universe, haha. Also, I'm loving this Bronya version, so glad they kept the VA from HI3. No need to mention, I guess, but we're all crushed with Kafka already, right?
@@lemonshiplusc5180 wish I were you guys... I rerolled 7 accounts to try and get him :( at the end I just gave up and kept the account which I got Bronya, who was my 2nd favorite character
I just started this game last night. Phew there’s so much to learn it can be quite overwhelming. This is guide to see who I should look out for to build a team.
08:23 I really need this to be confirmed. Do *all* destruction characters have a higher chance of being targeted? Or is it that they all so far have a node in the relic tree that increases the chance? Just any source on that would be appreciated.
There's this weird hidden taunt value in the game, where preservation and (maybe) abundance are the most likely to be targeted, hunt and erudition the least likely, and everyone else inbetween. I don't know the details on it though, but I know its there. Its also quite noticeable if we're paying attention to the fights.
Ain’t nobody gonna notice that Qingque slams opponents with a mahjong block, also she looks really fun like gacha in a kinda gacha game? Also SHE IS FREE!!!!! so that means more slamming mahjong blocks yay!
Not to mention that she actually benefits from losing her pulls(15% extra damage on next attack per skill activation), so it’s always fun to sink more skill points into pulling in combat with her. Her only flaw is the fact that her aoe basic attack doesn’t return you a skill point.
I got lucky imo, pulled Clara 1st, then got Welt and Himeko before getting Seele. Svarog, I mean Clara, is sooo much fun. I even enjoyed the fight against him in simulated world. Truly plays like a BOSS!
I still desperately want Welt.....I'm a huge lore/story person so, I've stopped after Jarilo-VI because of the story party XD. Aside from that, I absolutely love the wombo combo of Himeko and Herta, when farming exp books they make the fight auto-pilot because of the follow-up passives of both of them. Thanks for the video!
yes. Though if you get a 5 star in your first 20 ish pulls, I'd recommend saving your permanent wishes and NOT spend them into the beginner banner. I got Bronya on my first 10 pulls, then kept pulling another 40 on the beginner banner... and then found out the pity resets, so I didn't get a 5 star even though I should've. And those 30 wishes I spent were all for nothing, since the pity doesnt carry over to the permanent banner :(
After i started I finished the starter banner and got Bailu, i had a 10 pull left so i said "why not spend on the normal banner" immediately got himeko first try that btw, is the character that I most wanted since I play himeko on HI3 for as long i can remember.
As far as characters go, I've had horrible luck with the gatcha. I got a solid DPS character from the beginner banner and built my main team around him so I could use crit spam to melt mobs and shred bosses. His idle animation is also amusing. I chose not to reroll because, while I've had horrible luck in getting new characters, Natasha's Eidolons are maxed and I have an abundance of 4* light cones (for every path except the Hunt, since RNG hates me) that will probably prove to be beneficial later when I do finally have better luck getting characters.
My first 5* on the beginner banner was Gepard, he was the only character I wanted so I got Lucky and I’ll main him for a long time I think, road to C6 :DD
You might have found out by now but speed governs how soon (And in cases of very high speed, how often) a character can act. To put it simply if you have 2 characters, one with 10 speed and the other with 5, the one with 10 will act first. It goes a little deeper than that but I hope that helps
the party im using is, Welt and March. honestly the debuffs they inflict synergize so well. you slow them so hard that when they got a turn they cant even use it because they're frozen lol
I'm a Welt fan, but my hardest hitter is Dan Heng. I got Bronya and using her with him can kill three enemies in a row. Someday, I'll build my boyband team in Honkai like my mono geo in Genshin.
I choose to build mc and I think is actually insane they are so strong 😂from experience of genshin I don’t want to waste resources much by randomly upgrade other characters for no reason but of course I do need to build the hunt characters because they are like dps
just started playing today got welt wanted bronya but now wow im impressed that standard characters in hsr are actually good will probably play Dan Heng, Welt, Asta, March 7/ Natasha still hoping to win seele
I got gepard as my free starter 5 star and I was so happy as he was exactly the one I wanted, I’ve been putting all my resources towards both him as well as Caelus (the male MC) ❤❤
i have questions, is there a recommended way to build a team, i dont rly know what roles to include to give the best output or team cooperations. second, how to know which element to use before fighting enemies cus it kinda feels fustrating when fighting enemies that i dont have the element to break the shield. is there a way to know the enemies element weakness b4hand or do i just have to look at them close up right before fighting them
I’m still figuring out the element situation myself, but I think you generally want a diverse team initially (maybe someone who does AOE damage, single target damage, defense/heal, and buff/debuff). This would be so you don’t have to invest in too many characters right away by setting up two teams. Once those units are good, you can split the AOE and single target DPS into two different teams with their respective supports. Use AOE team for trash mobs, and single target team for bosses? That’s my plan at least.
Tldr : From personal experience, build character one by one with the team comp of dmg dealer - support - healer - tank. Edited: Match those colors with the enemy for better dmg! Hello there! I play HRS and just want to share my experience and the things I discover in the game. Beforehand, please don't assume this as foolproof guide as some choices is totally my personal preference and biases. Treat my words as an advice as in the end of day doing your own research is the best way to learn this game. So in building a team in HRS(honkai star rail), especially if you are free-to-play, the best team composition is going for: 1)Main damage dealer Support (buffer/debuffer) Healer Tank Build the team one by one and don't waste your resources on the characters you will not use. Priority order as main dealer first -> then support -> healer -> and tank. Ofc if you have different plans on mind, you can change how you make your team comp just be mindful that you should build your character one by one to avoid wasting resources (or else your progress will be slow). Support, healer (abundance) and tank(preservation) are self explanatory so let's talk about main damage dealer. Those characters are Erudition (Aoe/Multi-target) and The Hunt (single target). If you are contemplating which one is the better branch of damage dealer then I would say it's depend on your playstyle. Both are strong early to late game, just need good set up to utilize their full potential. Erudition are skill dependent characters so build that character around that. While the Hunt characters are good using basic attacks, great using ultimates. In terms of elements in the game. The are Physical, Fire, Ice, Lightning, Wind, Quantum, and Imaginary. There are your typical elements with just extra steps(various DoT and buffs). To not over complicate, Rule of the thumb, however great is the element, matching the weakness of the enemy is always better. Physical is good in weakness breaking (the white bar above the hp bar of the enemy that they will get stunned or cc if you deplete it) Quantum is great over all among the elements. Imaginary is your best friend if you want to delay your enemy (essentially giving you free turns). Others are generics. Other infos... Weakness Break There's a question mark above the head of the enemy before you fight. You can click or select that to know the weakness of the enemy. The symbols of elements from left to right are the best to least effective elements that are suitable for that enemy. To know your characters' elements, go to your characters' stat and top right you will see the symbol of the element of that character (you click or select that to know more about elements). That's the end, thanks for your time reading this.
Herta is pretty underrated, but I don't regret starting to build her since shes pretty useful in farming mats efficiently, a rather good investment for the long run if I wanted to build a more complext variety of chars.
I got Gepard from the starting banner and I really don't like his kit. It's really unfortunate that my only 5* is one I don't like. I also 100% don't feel like rerolling for a bunch of reasons. I got Qingque from the same banner and I honestly didn't know how to feel about her, but seeing your video made me want to build her, so I'll be building my team around her from now on. I hope I can get Clara sooner rather than later, since she's already my favourite character and she synergises extremely well with March 7th, another character I really like. Both Clara and Qingque have an rng factor to their kit, which in my opinion makes it interesting and means that, if you lose a battle, it could be because of bad rng and so trying again feels less annoying to me personally, since it's not entirely due to my own choices
Right I’ve not got a healer 😭💔 yet and I need help with strong buffers/debuffers or any sort of sheild cuz I’m struggling to survive even when having team members 5 levels higher then the enemies?
from my 2yr experience in Omyoji, which is another popular Chinese turn-based game, any character that gives spd buff, deals follow-up atks, taunts or does counter atk, they're better. There has been established and very successful teams with these kinds of characters, and their PVP has become a spd point competition.
Tbh I don't understand about the speed boost? Like what's so good about speed in battle? What makes it good? Like for example in genshin, character like ayato gain a few more slash for normal atk spd
Saaaame! I want to see how Mei is interpreted in HSR Honkai World Diva is a recurring song in the Honkai Games. I hope we get a version of it if Mei comes out
I'm curious, what is the reason behind SPD boots in a turn based game? Asta's ultimate boots speed but why would that help in a turn based game where it would just mean attacks are faster? sorry if this sounds dumb. seeking help as an asta enjoyer :)
Anywhere I can look to see certain team comps / good synergies for example I have Welt and Byrona(forget her name) the wind support 5 star and want to make a decent team with both of them. But my main roster rn is wilt, Trail Blazers (base) asta and Dan hang, and I haven’t had much trouble Currently just hit level 21. Any Recommendations or tips since I’m now able to farm level up material and not to sure who to focus my time on .
Welt + Asta is amazing, Dan Heng does extra damage to slowed(Welt’s debuff) enemies. Destruction Trailblazer kinda sucks imo, but I’m not sure fire trailblazer would be better for that team. Honestly just replacing the MC for Bronya would be good, allowing you to force Dan Heng to get even *more* actions. You have a pretty damn good team comp with just those 4, since 3 of them are focused on getting more turns. I’d build an erudition character to replace Dan Heng if you manage to get a good one, since Welt’s Single Target DPT is honestly insane with his skill. In summary, you’ve got a good thing going! Keep with it and it’ll go far.
I'm not maining anyone just yet but I do use March 7th for exploration because I love shooting things from afar. And I adore her. And she hasn't left my party since I put her in. And I adore her... ... ... ... Okay I might be maining her lol. For now. Only time will tell.
honestly i was kinda sad i got bronya as my first 5 star BUT HONESTLY SHES SO GOOD AND HONESTLY I LOVE HER SM NOW, but i do want himeko or kafka (in the future) because right now my main dps is the mc, and shes not bad or anything but i already have natasha in my team, and ik the mc will change element in the quests but i havent reaached there yet :(
I got Shushang and I think her burst is so funny lmao. She also seems to have been nerfed compared to her Honkai Impact counterpart. Where she bonks a sword the size of a skyscraper on the enemies
Gepard and Fire MC (Basically the same, just different elements) are your tanks, Pela and Asta (Defense down on enemies vs Attack Up and Speed Up respectively) are your buffers
My team right now is Herta(c3) Bailu (c0) Dan Heng (c0) and Clara (c0) Im using Clara as a tank and Bailu keeps her up amazing. Herta has amazing AOE and Dan Hengs single target damage is amazing for bosses

I literally cheese every boss fight with Gepard and Natasha
I. Refuse. To. Die.
Just started the game, I played like an hour, I was wondering, should I pull in the beginners banner? The one with 20%.. They gave us 20 pulls.
Yes, gauranteed 5* at 50 pulls (tech 40)
yes. Though if you get a 5 star in your first 20 ish pulls, I'd recommend saving your permanent wishes and NOT spend them into the beginner banner.
I got Bronya on my first 10 pulls, then kept pulling another 40 on the beginner banner... and then found out the pity resets, so I didn't get a 5 star even though I should've. And those 30 wishes I spent were all for nothing, since the pity doesnt carry over to the permanent banner :(
After i started I finished the starter banner and got Bailu, i had a 10 pull left so i said "why not spend on the normal banner" immediately got himeko first try that btw, is the character that I most wanted since I play himeko on HI3 for as long i can remember.
My new quest now is pull every char from HI3, hopefully I get Seele...
Wish me luck!
@@animadorbahiano8911 u got her yet?
@@babonhijau1665 not yet... But I'm still on my mission
Thank you for explaining, it really helps me to understand how to play star rail 😊
when or if i get bailu im adding her to my team immediately !
I love how Sampo's section is the most replayed part of the video
This is very knowledgeable and helpful thank you Sevyy. Will wait for your best teams video
As far as characters go, I've had horrible luck with the gatcha. I got a solid DPS character from the beginner banner and built my main team around him so I could use crit spam to melt mobs and shred bosses. His idle animation is also amusing. I chose not to reroll because, while I've had horrible luck in getting new characters, Natasha's Eidolons are maxed and I have an abundance of 4* light cones (for every path except the Hunt, since RNG hates me) that will probably prove to be beneficial later when I do finally have better luck getting characters.
I’m having the opposite problem, I’m getting nothing but the hunt light cones despite only have Dan heng whom I don’t use
My first 5* on the beginner banner was Gepard, he was the only character I wanted so I got Lucky and I’ll main him for a long time I think, road to C6 :DD
slay
natasha became my fav support
clutch in against the horseman
Qingque is by far my fav character she's just so adorable
What does speed do? I couldn't find info on it in the game but I've seen it mentioned here and there
You might have found out by now but speed governs how soon (And in cases of very high speed, how often) a character can act. To put it simply if you have 2 characters, one with 10 speed and the other with 5, the one with 10 will act first. It goes a little deeper than that but I hope that helps
Theres also breakpoints that make u have 2 rounds back to back before it swaps to enemy.
the party im using is, Welt and March. honestly the debuffs they inflict synergize so well. you slow them so hard that when they got a turn they cant even use it because they're frozen lol
I’d recommend also using Dan Heng with welt, since one of his traces gives a buff on slowed enemies(iirc).
Got Bronya from the starter banner. I'm happy
I got Clara and she is soooo good comboed with March 7th!! And overall good with the starter characters!
I'm a Welt fan, but my hardest hitter is Dan Heng. I got Bronya and using her with him can kill three enemies in a row. Someday, I'll build my boyband team in Honkai like my mono geo in Genshin.
Dan Heng and Welt is a brutal combo, since welt applies slow, and dan Heng does extra damage to slowed targets.
I choose to build mc and I think is actually insane they are so strong 😂from experience of genshin I don’t want to waste resources much by randomly upgrade other characters for no reason but of course I do need to build the hunt characters because they are like dps
just started playing today got welt wanted bronya but now wow im impressed that standard characters in hsr are actually good will probably play Dan Heng, Welt, Asta, March 7/ Natasha still hoping to win seele
I got gepard as my free starter 5 star and I was so happy as he was exactly the one I wanted, I’ve been putting all my resources towards both him as well as Caelus (the male MC) ❤❤
omg same, basil from omori
@@K9CORPSE so true Sayori from Doki Doki Literature Club!
i have questions, is there a recommended way to build a team, i dont rly know what roles to include to give the best output or team cooperations. second, how to know which element to use before fighting enemies cus it kinda feels fustrating when fighting enemies that i dont have the element to break the shield. is there a way to know the enemies element weakness b4hand or do i just have to look at them close up right before fighting them
I’m still figuring out the element situation myself, but I think you generally want a diverse team initially (maybe someone who does AOE damage, single target damage, defense/heal, and buff/debuff). This would be so you don’t have to invest in too many characters right away by setting up two teams. Once those units are good, you can split the AOE and single target DPS into two different teams with their respective supports. Use AOE team for trash mobs, and single target team for bosses? That’s my plan at least.
Tldr : From personal experience, build character one by one with the team comp of dmg dealer - support - healer - tank. Edited: Match those colors with the enemy for better dmg!
Hello there! I play HRS and just want to share my experience and the things I discover in the game. Beforehand, please don't assume this as foolproof guide as some choices is totally my personal preference and biases. Treat my words as an advice as in the end of day doing your own research is the best way to learn this game.
So in building a team in HRS(honkai star rail), especially if you are free-to-play, the best team composition is going for:
1)Main damage dealer
Support (buffer/debuffer)
Healer
Tank
Build the team one by one and don't waste your resources on the characters you will not use.
Priority order as main dealer first -> then support -> healer -> and tank.
Ofc if you have different plans on mind, you can change how you make your team comp just be mindful that you should build your character one by one to avoid wasting resources (or else your progress will be slow).
Support, healer (abundance) and tank(preservation) are self explanatory so let's talk about main damage dealer.
Those characters are Erudition (Aoe/Multi-target) and The Hunt (single target).
If you are contemplating which one is the better branch of damage dealer then I would say it's depend on your playstyle. Both are strong early to late game, just need good set up to utilize their full potential.
Erudition are skill dependent characters so build that character around that. While the Hunt characters are good using basic attacks, great using ultimates.
In terms of elements in the game.
The are Physical, Fire, Ice, Lightning, Wind, Quantum, and Imaginary.
There are your typical elements with just extra steps(various DoT and buffs).
To not over complicate,
Rule of the thumb, however great is the element, matching the weakness of the enemy is always better.
Physical is good in weakness breaking (the white bar above the hp bar of the enemy that they will get stunned or cc if you deplete it)
Quantum is great over all among the elements.
Imaginary is your best friend if you want to delay your enemy (essentially giving you free turns).
Others are generics.
Other infos...
Weakness Break
There's a question mark above the head of the enemy before you fight.
You can click or select that to know the weakness of the enemy. The symbols of elements from left to right are the best to least effective elements that are suitable for that enemy.
To know your characters' elements, go to your characters' stat and top right you will see the symbol of the element of that character (you click or select that to know more about elements).
That's the end, thanks for your time reading this.
Qingque literally gambling in the middle of the battle
Herta is pretty underrated, but I don't regret starting to build her since shes pretty useful in farming mats efficiently, a rather good investment for the long run if I wanted to build a more complext variety of chars.
shushang's chicken literally jumped universes from honkai impact to star rail
I got Gepard from the starting banner and I really don't like his kit. It's really unfortunate that my only 5* is one I don't like. I also 100% don't feel like rerolling for a bunch of reasons. I got Qingque from the same banner and I honestly didn't know how to feel about her, but seeing your video made me want to build her, so I'll be building my team around her from now on.
I hope I can get Clara sooner rather than later, since she's already my favourite character and she synergises extremely well with March 7th, another character I really like. Both Clara and Qingque have an rng factor to their kit, which in my opinion makes it interesting and means that, if you lose a battle, it could be because of bad rng and so trying again feels less annoying to me personally, since it's not entirely due to my own choices
Thank you so much for this! Lots of info for beginners
After play honkai Star Rail, i actually having fun. The character design is amazing i love it and the Gameplay is Very easy to understand.
Awesome Sevy.... U made the game easy to play and get along 🎉🎉
Hi Sevy, so far what are your thoughts for SR and who's your favorite team comp as of the moment?
Ty for explaning ure good at it:)))
Right I’ve not got a healer 😭💔 yet and I need help with strong buffers/debuffers or any sort of sheild cuz I’m struggling to survive even when having team members 5 levels higher then the enemies?
I got welt from the beginner banner and i LOVE him. And i got gevard at 10 pity for seele and then i got her early too im so happy
I got asta and welt from begginer and normal banner
After watching UA-cam guides on welt teams..
Its was a beautiful coincidence
My team rn is Herta, Sampo, Bailu and Asta and i love it! ❤❤
from my 2yr experience in Omyoji, which is another popular Chinese turn-based game, any character that gives spd buff, deals follow-up atks, taunts or does counter atk, they're better. There has been established and very successful teams with these kinds of characters, and their PVP has become a spd point competition.
Tbh I don't understand about the speed boost? Like what's so good about speed in battle? What makes it good?
Like for example in genshin, character like ayato gain a few more slash for normal atk spd
Got Yanqing on my summons. Never looking back
Could you please make videos about the builds of each characters and teams 🥺🥺🥺🥺
Hoping for Mei Raiden counterpart in HSR, for the meantime, I want Momy Kafka 😳
Im waiting for her gf Kiana as a counterpart or her HI3 counterpart visiting.
Saaaame! I want to see how Mei is interpreted in HSR
Honkai World Diva is a recurring song in the Honkai Games. I hope we get a version of it if Mei comes out
I want mommy himeko
ppl already found files of mei and kiana cant wait
There's Pela, the bootleg Dr. Mei
CAN you make an early tier list please?
I'm curious, what is the reason behind SPD boots in a turn based game? Asta's ultimate boots speed but why would that help in a turn based game where it would just mean attacks are faster? sorry if this sounds dumb. seeking help as an asta enjoyer :)
It means they get their turn faster. With enough speed, a character can attack twice before the enemy can attack once.
i love pairing herta and himeko tgt. makes farming so quick lol
hi sevy !! pls make a gepard video hehe
Anywhere I can look to see certain team comps / good synergies for example I have Welt and Byrona(forget her name) the wind support 5 star and want to make a decent team with both of them. But my main roster rn is wilt, Trail Blazers (base) asta and Dan hang, and I haven’t had much trouble Currently just hit level 21. Any Recommendations or tips since I’m now able to farm level up material and not to sure who to focus my time on .
Welt + Asta is amazing, Dan Heng does extra damage to slowed(Welt’s debuff) enemies. Destruction Trailblazer kinda sucks imo, but I’m not sure fire trailblazer would be better for that team. Honestly just replacing the MC for Bronya would be good, allowing you to force Dan Heng to get even *more* actions. You have a pretty damn good team comp with just those 4, since 3 of them are focused on getting more turns. I’d build an erudition character to replace Dan Heng if you manage to get a good one, since Welt’s Single Target DPT is honestly insane with his skill.
In summary, you’ve got a good thing going! Keep with it and it’ll go far.
I started playing Star rail yesterday, and I need to know how the battle mechanics works in this game TwT
I'm not maining anyone just yet but I do use March 7th for exploration because I love shooting things from afar. And I adore her. And she hasn't left my party since I put her in. And I adore her...
...
...
...
Okay I might be maining her lol. For now. Only time will tell.
Thank you so much Sevy.
Im just going to build around dan heng i love him ❤
honestly i was kinda sad i got bronya as my first 5 star BUT HONESTLY SHES SO GOOD AND HONESTLY I LOVE HER SM NOW, but i do want himeko or kafka (in the future) because right now my main dps is the mc, and shes not bad or anything but i already have natasha in my team, and ik the mc will change element in the quests but i havent reaached there yet :(
I was aiming for Gepard, got Clara... No real regrets.
I got Shushang and I think her burst is so funny lmao. She also seems to have been nerfed compared to her Honkai Impact counterpart. Where she bonks a sword the size of a skyscraper on the enemies
So who would you consider a Tank and Mega buff unit? Like Zhongli and Kazuha that's who I want in this game.
maybe gepard for tank and bronya for buffs?
wait few months, prolly they'll release them as limited 5*. ( i place all my bets on it)
Gepard and Fire MC (Basically the same, just different elements) are your tanks, Pela and Asta (Defense down on enemies vs Attack Up and Speed Up respectively) are your buffers
i wanna get bronya because after testing her as a support character she can give seele up to 6 consecutive turns which is really funny
I actually like the game :D in 40 pulls got Bronya Baili and man of culture with glasses so I have a brief start
I'm in love with Natasha. ❤
My team right now is Herta(c3) Bailu (c0) Dan Heng (c0) and Clara (c0) Im using Clara as a tank and Bailu keeps her up amazing. Herta has amazing AOE and Dan Hengs single target damage is amazing for bosses
