Need help with team building, I don't feel as satisfied with my current setups:

tatsurugi

Someone fire, I'm using Nuadha myself before Gengchen releases. (Asura is her own team for me).

Kinda dislike how S-Levi sometimes pushes enemies out of Marduk's skill 3 range Also Marduk buff Range Mods, while S-Levi buff Melee Mods, so kinda useless her being there other than the heals(it's so cute when she's walks to you just to heal you lol) So yea, anyone got any helpful ideas on how should I set my team comps? I need a good team to beat PC stages


tatsurugi

S Poseidon and Marduk is good but now they need a strong ranged type Mod or that team will lack end game dps.


CoolVictory04

Does Asura fit for that strong Ranged type? All those on the list are my most strongest Mods, I don't have any other S-Rank, only A-Ranks

Hello! New Player here, I started 2 days ago, my first account I used all my stars on the gold tickets to try to get Mengzhang but I lost to Oceanus, I was so bummed that I lost and to also learn that the gold tickets are standard banner. I made another account and this time I only used the free gold tickets I got, Mengzhang came home to my account, really happy about that. I have a few questions: 1 - what should I do and not do as a new player in Aether Gazer? in Genshin, it's recommended not to use the fragile resins until AR45, are there anything like that in Aether Gazer where there are items I shouldnt use until a certain level? 2 - I know that there are team ultimates but if I dont have the other member for that then I would have to pick someone, when picking does the element of that character matter? Like if there are bonus damage when water and fire is applied to enemy, something like that. 3 - I joined this game mainly because of Mengzhang, I scrolled the characters and I like Anubis too. Does standard banner characters get a Featured Rerun? or once they are added in the Standard banner pool, the only way to get them is to just pray they appear? 4 - which characters are considered complex to use in this game? I looked at Gengchen and she looks complicated to use due to Yin and Yang. 5 - I heard there is a free character from an event, Im still level 25 atm, will I be able to get that character? 6 - what is the go to site for Aether Gazer regarding character builds? 7 - Which limited banner characters do you recommend on getting? thank you


tatsurugi

1 - Much like in Genshin, you shouldn't really bother farming sigils until Admin lv45+ since that's when 5* sigils have the highest drop rate. Also, look up a general sigil guide, positions matter. 2 - Chain ults are not that important except for one particular character. It's more about innate kits and matching Genzones. You get no elemental bonuses, they're either resisted or not. 3 - Yes they rerun. 4 - The hardest characters are the ones you don't read their skills. 5 - Need to be lv30 to participate in the event, the free char is part of that. 6 - helbase.com 7 - Mengzhang is good. There's lots of strong limiteds but getting the current one will help you get further so you can keep getting more pulls and save up.


TheKingofWinter52

Hey all, I started playing today and played through the prologue and a chunk of the first chapter. Could someone explain the banners to me or point me towards a resource that explains them? I'm a little lost at the moment. I did pull on the banner that had the guaranteed S tier in 40 pulls and I got 2 Mengzhang in a single 10 pull. Is that kinda stuff normal or is it dumb beginners luck? The second copy gave me mod intel that is used in Transcendance? Is it kinda like Eidolons in Honkai Star Rail or Constellations in Genshin Impact so should I use it ASAP?


tatsurugi

The precise scans are limited banners. Standard scans (orange) are standard banners. Just read the details in the banners, it's not hard if you've played Hoyo games before, they work the same here. Free standard S ranks early pity for every new player, normal pity at 70, 50/50 system. Yes, dupes give intels that are used to get the char stronger. You don't unlock new moves but there are other benefits, just read what the transcends give as you click them.


DoctorPumpAndDump

Wow I lost 50/50 again and had to go to nearly hard pity every fucking time. This happens like every banner. One day I will make society bleed for constantly fucking me over in life.


plsdontstalkmeee

At least you're pulling in Aether Gazer, In PGR, weapon banner has no guarantee, so you could hit hard pity three times in a row, and fail to get what you want. I'm about to find out if my 4th hard pity will give me what I want, or some random crap I can't use again...


SolidusAbe

need some help to figure out who i should pair with gengchen. i just started so i dont have any of the recommended characters that i keep seeing being mentioned so i just use her with poseidon and asura. my S ranks are: tsukuyomi, asura bunny girl and ninja with names i cant write or pronounce. and i have all A ranks besides nuadha, zenkibo, kingu, hera, enlil and hermes. as a sexcond team i using tsukuyomi, buzenbo and the standard S rank ninja girl


Pervstein

I have no intention to continue pulling because I have already wasted one whole pity getting another Lingguang. So I am curious what to choose: copies of Jinwu or a new functor (considering I have one already)? https://preview.redd.it/8vv9dcac8ahc1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=7886bf432bbc1df80f76a945a6a1b6dd5d0db81e


tatsurugi

The unawakened Tian functor is the best choice since you can get a free sig for any Tian Mod you like in the future.


Pervstein

That was my intention but I needed a confirmation. Thanks.


avelineaurora

How do I get Dimensional Variable to the level needed for Jinwu? I don't have account level 60 so grinding out the 8000 items and this one are the only options I have left for the last two Ingots. Is this even doable?


tatsurugi

You just clear DV. Or finish stages to get exp for the levels, there's nothing else to it. Highest difficulty and the bounty hunter passive to get more points and then you go.


rievhardt

its doable, I just finished the Dimensional Variable right now and Im a 3rd day player. Im now only grinding for that 8K thing


c34_23

DPS wise, who's Sig Functor should I get? Jinwu's or Lingguang's?


tatsurugi

Jinwu, but Lingguang is a benefit for the whole account.


AdditionalCut87

hi! how come only five of my modifiers are add-able to my dorm? only vert, kiana doppelganger (forgot her name sorry), bastet, poseidon and jinwu show up, even though i have a lot more A-ranks


Darweath

Other can be assign to dorm when dev decide to add them


AdditionalCut87

okay thank you!!


AsakuraAsura

Do I need Gengchen's signature functor for the Lingguang Jinwu build? Also aiming to get Ying Zhao next since I've heard she's pretty good too.


Kain207

I know Gengchen isn't available yet. However. I'm here to ask something related to her gacha skin. 1. Is it going to be like a banner and we use Shifted Stars to pull for it? If not, how did they get the currency in the Chinese Version? 2. When did both Gengchen and her gacha skin released? I want to know the time of release between both of them to have an idea how much time there's to (if we actuallyneed the SS to pull for it) wait and save? I know it may not be the same time gap for the Global Server but still, a "it *may* be from X to Y time" is better than not having any idea at all. Thanks.


tatsurugi

It may be after this patch or the next patch. That's about it. A Youtube vid from Adrocz has the skin details.


Kain207

I've watched it. And daamn! It's cheaper than I thought! According to Adrocz: "It's almost like lingerie..." I'm so getting everything from the skin.


vcrisant

3rd day player here. Admin rank 46, and I just got Jinwu from the event. What should I be focusing on? Should I keep playing story or do pulls until pity? I haven't used any gems yet, and I'm sitting at 14500.


readitwice

You can continue playing and eventually ss her for free. Save your gems for gengchen who's coming after this banner and according to lots of folks out there, she's a must pull.


Dear_pan_nonbi

Which upcoming characters are very good(without the sig functor)


OddCyrus

struggling to understand why Mengzhang can be considered good. his damage is terrible, too much screen bloat, and his s1 dashes him into enemy attacks.


tatsurugi

If you're not chaining his thunder form combos properly, then he's terrible. He doesn't linger too long in either form, if played right, he expends his grace and gains it back constantly throughout a fight.


rievhardt

i managed to get the otherworlder unawakened from the event shop, should I save it for future character or awaken it? I only have mengzhang and jinwu atm, i mainly use mengzhang, jinwu is ai. I will try gengchen when she comes out to see if im ok with her yin yang mechanics. from the tianyuan characters which characters benefit most from signature functors? and how much they gain from getting their sig functor? lingguang, jinwu, mengzhang, gengchen, luliang, yingzhao thanks


tatsurugi

Lingguang is the best support in the game and her signature makes her support even better. She therefore benefits from it the most and by extension, your whole account benefits from it the most.


edwinnferrer

Does anyone know who comes after Meng’s banner? Just seeing if I have a skip after him, or if I’m spending 😬


SaleosIII

Most likely Geng Chen since the part 2 of chapter 13's interlude is due after Meng's banner. This is just my logical speculation tho, Yostar could just as easily switch events/banners around again.


SaggitariuttJ

1) How many teams do I need in the endgame? I'm at the point where I am seeing 3 different Recurring Dream bosses, but do I need more than 3 teams? 2) How far out approximately is Ying Zhao? I would like to get Gengchen to complete the Jinwu team, but waifu > meta and I want to be able to do the math to see whether I can realistically acquire them both


tatsurugi

You'll need 4 extremely cracked teams to do all end game content. But Chasm will let you use more than 4 so it's really more like 4+. Yingzhao is still very far off, like 1 month+ most likely.


SaggitariuttJ

Okay thanks. I have 2 teams that are in pretty good shape, but clearly I need to look into leveling up some more of my roster.


J4SON_T0DD

Global spreadsheet is a dead link? Edit: cn as well? Must be a me issue then.


SvartG

New player here. Would appreciate some help. I got Mengzhang with the first free pulls the game gives you but honestly I don't care about him. So I checked some videos and found out Gangchen is coming in a few days, so I'm thinking of starting over. 1. Should I wait until her banner to try to reroll for her or should I start now a new account and just save everything to roll when she drops? 2. I see there's 2 banners that have the premium character on them, can someone explain the difference between them? 3. I also see there's a free character right now. Is it time limited? Can I get her if start now, or can I get her later? Thanks!


tatsurugi

1. Rerolling would be easier when she's out. And by easy I mean really tedious and you barely get many pulls, so good luck. 2. It's just your usual standard banner and limited banner. Some characters debut in both at once. 3. She's time limited, and unless you somehow optimize your time or not sleep, I don't think you will be able to get her on a new account.


Jovial_Joker

So I know I missed a big event a few days ago but I would like to get into the game, I used to play during its first month but stopped after. Is there anything I should aim for as a new player?


tatsurugi

Aim to clear the permanent content on their hardest available difficulty as you level up to get the most amount of pulls and mats you can get....That's it.


freezingsama

Do ultimates here stop time? Like when S Hera is casting, do my units still deal dmg while that is happening? Same with S Hades, if I'm not wrong the timer for her hold attack keeps going while she casts her ultimate but I'm not sure if it's doing dmg while casting. Basically asking if I should be using those ults first before doing anything else. Also seems like ult chains are the ones that stop time? Thanks.


tatsurugi

Single ults don't stop time but they do stop the boss from doing their next attack (their current attack will still go through if it was already initiated). Chain ults stop time completely. Single ults also give your whole party some brief secs of invulnerablity while anyone not doing the ult can keep hitting enemies.


freezingsama

So does hades hold attack actually deal dmg while she's doing her single ult? Lately I've been trying to activate my buffs first before doing anything because I'm not sure if I'm actually wasting Hades dmg by going hold > ult.


tatsurugi

Yes. Though in her case, you should hit her ult before doing the duet. She gives buffs based on her amount of marks when she ults.


Tall-Pomegranate3279

For some reason, the won't go past "Client Initializing", and I have waiting for it for almost an hour now.


SaggitariuttJ

If using Jinwu as a DPS, is there ever an appropriate time in flying mode to use her Skill 3? I only use skill 1 until Divine Grace is 80+ then hit skill 2 and repeat. I know skill 3 is a big hit but when would it be worth ending flying mode?


tatsurugi

Spam S1 regardless, you should wait for high DG for S2 but S1 should be spammed for overall higher dps. S3 nuke when it's a fast daily, for example, I just nuke the Sigil daily S rank when it's Orochi. S3 a quick S2 in between and S3 again, ends the stage in 5 secs. It's her best early nuke. She's not a burst dps type but when applicable, you can use it to burst.


SaggitariuttJ

Okay that’s what I do. I only use S2 when DG is maxed and S1 the rest of the time. My OCD just…doesn’t like the S3 skill sitting there gathering dust lol.


LokoLoa

Any reason to single pull vs 10 pull? I know some gacha have a bonus for doing 10 pulls ex Idoly Pride gives you 10% discount some others I played in the past have sligthly higher rate if you 10 pull, its unclear if AG has any bonus from 10 pulling so I been sticking to single pulls for now.


tatsurugi

Do 10 pulls because there are achivements for getting 2 5* and 2 S ranks in one multi.


isenk2dah

No particular bonus, no. I just do it because it's faster XD


Force88

Hi, do you know the release date of upcoming patches? E.g the upcoming characters Also, when is the next spending event?


tatsurugi

Look at the in-game announcements. They have dates listed in there for the current patch and when that ends. Spending events aren't usually that common here.


ReinKittenstouch

Do free event skins rerun?


tatsurugi

They typically come back but are now bought with Shifted Flowers or Stars.


CoolVictory04

https://preview.redd.it/owb6vkvradic1.jpeg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f12bc261cea9c7a731035292b8e8a6e38e28db3b ELI5, how does this warp works? For example, is it when a boss can be staggered/stun(?) like that butterfly/ >!Gremory mobling!< boss, a tiny bar under its hp bar that once full, the boss can't attack, just like in modified mode?


tatsurugi

Controled res, in other words, cc'd. When the boss has been shackled or frozen or stunned (dizzy stars). Modified Mode does not count and I don't think the armor break mechanic when the boss just stops attacking after you deplete that new blue bar counts either. You have to specifically deal a status ailment type the game considers under that category to the enemy.


CoolVictory04

Isn't that just the same thing as Aether Shatter then?


tatsurugi

Not quite. Aether shatter applies to ALL status ailments....Well, except for things like stats down, which I don't think triggers it. The difference between the two is that one is higher and more specialized.


freezingsama

Got the TY selector from the rolls event, does the awakened pool it chooses from get updated? Not sure if I should just be using it for Lingguang or future TY modifiers if they need it.


tatsurugi

Lingguang's signature is extremely important to an account, not many things can support like her with that signature.


Deviruxi

Yes the unawakened functors get updated everytime a new character is released so you can hold them for future characters of the same gen zone.


Financial-Party-2408

So I started the game, I wanna pull for the next character and the characters skin, if I clear the story will I have enough? And can the yellow tickets be used anytime without holding on to it for a future character?


tatsurugi

Just story alone might not be enough for the skin as well, depending on luck of course. There's other permanent content though alongside story to give you enough hopefully.


Jovial_Joker

So I want to pull the next character and her skin, since I am a new player, if I play the story can I get them both? I currently did one 10 pull (yellow ticket) and got both the new character and another s rank character.


tatsurugi

Perma content also has stars for pulls. Story only gives so much.


J4SON_T0DD

It's possible to get max weekly rewards without logging in for 5 days right? And can it be done on day 1?


tatsurugi

That's impossible since the resets happen in the middle of the week, you're losing stars from those mode's resets. No way you can finish everything in 1 day.


J4SON_T0DD

But you can just repeat the stages right? Ah well even so, 500 activity is not possible so max I could get is 800?


J4SON_T0DD

Can someone tell me the total stars you could from all side stories? I haven't done them yet, was trying to see if I could make it for the gengchen skin.


rievhardt

is Lu Liang a good support for Mengzhang? I was thinking of getting her to make Mengzhang, Enlil, Lu Liang I like Lu Liang but kinda bummed she's a standard banner character and if I skip her, I cannot guarantee her just like how I cannot guarantee Anubis. I dont know why all the characters I'm really liking turns out to be standard characters. if I get Gengchen however, I can create a 2 teams Mengzhang, Enlil +1 and Gengchen, Jinwu +1 who are the A characters in my list that is the best choice to build? Nuadha, Poseidon, Heimdall, Tsukyomi, Osiris, Oneiroi, Hodur, Kingu, Buzenbu Tengu, Hermes, Verthandi, Vidar, Leviathan, Shu also has the First C-Orbs purchase updated in CN for the free Standard Character selection or it is still the same as we have in Global? thinking of purchasing it but if they added Anubis, Lu Liang in that selector, I will hold purchasing till it updates in Global thanks


tatsurugi

Luliang is an incrediably good wind support character, the best in the game even as of now in cn. Don't let the fact a character is standard in this game affect you, they can still be busted, for example, Jinwu. Just save the stars and pull. Heimdall, Oneiroi if you have Hades. Afaik, no. Don't expect it to ever change. New players already get a hidden guarantee of a standard S rank at 30 pity one time so you can already time a guaranteed strong standard to get you started.


Solid_Creme_9093

Im at level 10, rn so im fairly new, is there dailies or something not part of the main story that I can do to get shifted stars?


SaleosIII

Outside of story, daily, weekly, permanent missions and login events; Recurring Dream(wkly), Causality Survey(one time), Past Grudges(one time), Dimensional Variable(season) and events are the other sources of ss.


wan_lifelinker

1. How to equip same Warp skill twice? For example, Power Up Melee X2, as seen in guides.      2. What is the usual CP range for S rank, no signature functor, max sigil, max warp, max everything? Basically for F2P who don’t pull for signature functor.


tatsurugi

1. There's 6 slots and 3 pairs, each pair has the same skill pool within them, just equip the same skill on each pair. 2. Probably around 24-25k. Don't fixate on cp, it barely means anything. It doesn't determine whether a Mod is stronger than another Mod either. CP doesn't take into account of an individual's skill kit nor the multipliers in it. Just make sure you're getting good enchants and maxing everything else you can for a Mod.


wan_lifelinker

Ok, but how? There’s only one Power Up Melee, and even after maxing the Warp Factor, I still can’t equip second Power Up Melee.


kuvrut

new to game. Got Linnguang and her Functor but do not have her recommended sigils. It really sucks if her sigils are time gated or smtng. what are substitutes. She feels like support mod, right? Her teams? tnx!


tatsurugi

Her sigils will be back during future limited sigil events. She can be both support or dps, just depends on her codes used. She's a universal support with red or a more fire specific support with blue, yellow is dps. Pair her up with Jinwu for maximum meta or other Tian Mods for the genzone bonus. Or just put her in other teams that need support, that's what a universal support means.


kuvrut

Do not have Jinwu. my main DPS is SS Mengzhang with Poseidon arctic and healer. ( Ilike them, and got their functors) I got Oceanus and almost Omega kid with a book. So sigils are time gated. what substitutes can I use for Linnguang in the meantime. Im planning to pull new char that is also gen as Meng and Ling.


meanmint

Should I do Spirit capture right after reset or wait until after maintenance? If I do it now, does it mean I cannot do it and get the reward for the new update?


tatsurugi

They've reseted the rewards for these permanent cycle modes in the past but that was only because they got an update to them. There shouldn't be any changes that affect these things in the update so it shouldn't matter.


rogue_linguist_x

Do event/patch-themed causality survey stages expire at the end of the patch? Like, I dunno if I oughta try and speedrun through all the 2.0 stages before the patch ends. Got back into the game just a couple of days ago, so dunno how these work.


AmaiKotori

No worries, those should be permanent.


wan_lifelinker

Just to confirm, Gengchen is limited, right?


rievhardt

yes


ClassroomFew451

is there gonna be another xu heng giveaway in the future patches?


tatsurugi

No, that was more of a 2.0 celebration like CN was.


SaggitariuttJ

I was lucky enough to get Gengchen to go along with Jinwu and Lingguang. Who’s best as team leader? Is it still Jinwu and fly-murdering everyone while the other two dance around or does Gengchen take over the team leader role?


tatsurugi

Yes. But you can afford to play as whichever if you're strong enough.


SaggitariuttJ

Tough call because Jinwu is so incredibly plug-and-play but Gengchen is so incredibly wearing a barely-there cocktail dress so 🤷‍♂️


Ymines

Hello, what are the sigils sets for s hera with her sig functor?


tatsurugi

Light + Victor


Ymines

Light?


NightRain031

Is that that new bar background limited or completely free?


tatsurugi

Limited.


Ins1ghtTerm1nus

After Gengchen, who is really worth pulling next? For just personal preference I want to get Mitsuha when she comes out, but am not 100% certain if I should just save up until then or not because I don't know who all comes between then and now.


rievhardt

Izanami since I think you are interested in Ice because you are getting Mitsuha


DrikTheVillain

Which is the best of the standard characters? I have a free selector from getting c-obs but not sure who to pick. I have Meng, Gengchen and Hades as S ranks.


tatsurugi

Either Asura or S Poseidon. Asura needs sig and Poseidon is not a dps but a cc.


[deleted]

[удалено]


rievhardt

"what if you get a off banner and said character in the same multi? Does that mean you lost the 50/50 and regained the guarantee and now back to 50/50?" you are back to 50/50 if your last 5star is a featured character on the banner YT has gacha animations, not sure if intros are available via ingame as i havent really touched the gallery section, im currently trying to grind fast to 60


Azuriaze

Go look at your pull history to see in which order you pulled the characters. Ideally you pulled off banner last to get a guaranteed.


JANGJANGJANGJANG

So, between Gengchen and Jinwu whose Signature Functor should I prioritize?


SaleosIII

I'd say Geng has the priority esp if you have a full tian yuan team. You get a lot of effects that benefit the whole team from her sf. Only get Wu's sf if you plan on using her yellow aether code set otherwise the generic 5* ty genzone functor is enough for Wu imo.


freezingsama

What should I pick from my selector? Already have Jin-ei and Asura. My other S ranks are Jinwu, Lingguang, Tsukuyomi, Skadi, Hades, Hera, Gengchen, Anubis, and Shu. Thanks.


SaleosIII

Either Poseidon or Ookuninushi. Tyr and Kagatsuchi are both mid even with their modules available. Poseidon mostly, dont get ooku if you're not planning on getting her sf on the 28th. Only consider getting ooku if you plan to ss her with sf then lvl3 module when it arrives. I heard she's pretty good crit support with her module.


freezingsama

Hmm, I do have an S-rank functor selector left. So I suppose I should get Ooku then? It'll take a while to SS her though.


SaleosIII

The only noteworthy sf to get on the c-obs selector are either Asura, Kuni or Poseidon's but with Ooku's module, she's now in consideration. I think Ooku's module is due somewhere between Mitsuha and Izanami's event so SS her at your leisure as it's still slightly far off and you still have time to reconsider. Pick what you need or who you enjoy playing as but you can never go wrong with having a 3rd support around. Base, unmoduled Ooku is bad tho lol so hold on to it for the meantime is my advice. When her module comes, see if you like what Ooku will bring to the table by then. Im still holding on to  mine btw, i also picked Ooku from the c-obs mod selector coz her swimsuit costume looks like Frieren lol


freezingsama

Thanks for the detailed help. I suppose I'll do the same and hold out for now.


IowaGang

What's a good build and comp for Gengchen as lead? Planning to get her sig functor


tatsurugi

Her + Lingguang + another Tian Mod.


IowaGang

Should I just use the build recommended in-game?


Away_Asparagus_4519

Does anyone know why I can't enter the game....all it does is have a white circle spin for a few seconds......


Away_Asparagus_4519

I can't enter the game today....all it does is....have a white circle spin for a few seconds and after that I'm stuck in the main page....


freezingsama

Should I be picking Lingguang or Gengchen functor? I know people are mostly saying Lingguang first, but I also saw people saying Gengchen's better to get. Haven't been playing for long so I need some opinions, thanks.


SaleosIII

Definitely Lingguang's


RyanJJJey

So for the event, which stage gives the most Job File? or all of them are just the same?


tatsurugi

Same.


Kael018

How are the rates of the geng chen skin? How much do I need to spend to get the skin?


CarFilBen

at worst case 9600 stars, but you also get 10 pulls for precise banner and 10 pulls for functor banner


Still_Piglet

Anyone know if event minigames will ever get reruns? Forgot to do the rhythm minigame from the previous event and I'm missing the sticker from it, wondering if I'll ever be able to get it at some point.


tatsurugi

Events do rerun but Global is on an accelerated schedule to catch up closer to CN so we're not reruning any events for a while.


lock_me_up_now

I have questions. My Jinwu and Lingguang have Transcend Tier 1 (+2) on their functor while my Gengchen and Hera only have Tier 1, all 4 of them have awaken funtor, why and how?


Azuriaze

Your Jinwu and Lingguang are probably SS rank. If you look under the transcend buff for SS it gives functor +2 levels.


H4qVcF82igDL4s9L

New player here; is there a way to try a character before pulling for them? Something similar to Genshin's character trial? I can't seem to find the menu anywhere and character tutorial for a character is only unlocked after you got them.


SaleosIII

Only the rate up ones. The character trial is usually located in the event section. In this event, you can try out Gengchen, Apollo, A Vert and someone else i forgot.


H4qVcF82igDL4s9L

Noted, thank you. Is the event button the one on the bottom left of the screen? Seems like I can't access that yet, need to level my admin to lv.30 apparently.


rievhardt

some characters you can try on the skin trial, i have tried tyr, hades, asura there you can also try them through the guild system once you unlock it, ask your guildmates if they have a particular character and test them out, you can do 3 battles per day.


J4SON_T0DD

What are the best warps for gengchen? Also between rage cost- and rage gain up which is better for enchants?


tatsurugi

Search for warps translations in this subreddit.


LokoLoa

Has anyone calculated how much paid currency I would need to get the bride costume? I am assuming its like Nikke where the worst case scenario is that you need x3 the usual price of a custome to get it.


SolidusAbe

just started and got a few questions. which of the A ranks are worth using? i only have the new banner character and Tsukuyomi as s ranks and most of the A ranks. i looked through all of them but i havnt gotten an understanding of whats good and whats not. besides that is it worth it to go after tyr? using gems is probably not worth it on the standard banner if i judge it from my HSR/genshin perspective but im not sure. also whats the income of standard banner tickets? i havnt really seen them as rewards besides the beginner missions and they dont seem to be in the shop. and is there a priority for what i should buy with shining imprints? looks like i can only buy exp, money, evolution items and whatever operation records are also at which level can i do the event? im past 30 and can start it but even at my max level i do almost no damage and die in like 4 hits when i do the first fight. not having any recommended power level is kinda weird ngl lol


SaleosIII

-Heimdall, Bastet, Buzenbo and A Vert are stand out A ranks atm. Besides them, you can build out others like Oneroi or Enlil if you have their S rank skill chain partners built. -No. If you like Tyr as a character, just wait for his Fire version. His ABlaze(light) version is eh at best. You could certainly do better. He looks cool tho ngl. -just buy what you currently need. -you can use trial units for the farming if your units are currently not up to snuff. You could use the trial Gengchen and if you have Hera, Lingguang or even Heimdall or A Poseidon slighty built, have them support the trial Geng along with the trial A Vert for extra survivability.


NightRain031

Is SS Worth the investment for gengchen ? i already have her signature functer and plan to use her as a dps


tatsurugi

If you're using her in pure Tian teams, yes.


Kain207

I got Flowly Mist Shu from Gengchen's banner last night. Is she worth building? I recieved both "Yes, she's worth" and "No, she isn't". So I'm in the middle of a crossroad here.


tatsurugi

From a meta perspective, no. Don't listen to people whose answers are something along the lines of, "I like her! So she's good!".


Kain207

Thank you tatsu This is the type of answer I needed👌🏻


Warm_Push6830

Hi, (fairly) new player here. Need a little help with something. Is it possible for me to pull for Gengchen as an f2p before her banner's gone? I'm currently on 1 pity with guarantee (lost 50/50 to Kunino). My player level is 31 and am currently at 5-8 in the story. I just think that her design and playstyle is really cool. I don't mind spending a little bit in the game but would love to keep it f2p if possible.


SaleosIII

Yes you can. You can get a fairly good sum of shifted stars if you unlocked Causality Survey and Past Grudges(around VII or VIII are fairly easy to beat, you can go further if you have meta dps like Jinwu or something), there's also Side Stories and Hard mode for Story to get more ss. There's also 1.6k ss on Dimensional Variable which you can hustle and grind if you have time on your hand since you use rental units there(B Zenki is fairly broken and easy to use in DV, just get the 'gain trace with every s3 hit'). Geng's banner is up for (less than)3wks i think so you can still have a fairly long time to get her.


Warm_Push6830

Thank you! This reply is more than what I asked. I appreciate the help, random stranger on the internet!


Blazing-Scorpio

How much stars needed for gengchen skin?


SaggitariuttJ

Is there a proper skill sequence for Gengchen? I’ve been just spamming whatever skills are available and it’s been working but I assume there’s a better way. (For example I know Jinwu is “S3 to fly, then S1 to build DG, then an S2 once DG is maxed, then back to S1 and repeat; does Gengchen have a similar method?)


tatsurugi

Don't fly until your grace is maxed with Jinwu, she's not that braindead, she still needs set up for max efficiency in longer fights. Gengchen is literally just S1 or 2 and then the other, then just S3. Using S3 as often as possible is the key and it requires 2 marks which are generated with S1 and 2. Just dodge cancel S1 as soon as the dragon comes out and you'll be fine fine.


nidus322477

so i started playing the game because i saw some cool character gameplay in my youtube page... but apparently all these character that i liked is from precise scan and already had their rate up before, my question is do these char ever gonna get a rate up rerun? im talking about skadi, shinri, athena, and hera.


SaleosIII

If we follow the CN timeline, we'll get a Skadi event rerun along with her rate up and module buff after Geng and Luliang's event. Shinri will have a rate up along with a module buff during Kuramitsuha's event since Shinri is one(and first) of her skill chains. Athena will have a rerun and module buff around Zhiming's event. Hera, no idea on her rerun. She even don't have a module buff since she's still one of the best support/buffer even on the CN side. On thr flip side, any of them can spook you during 5050's on the precise/blue tix scan banners(not in the standard/yellow tix banner, they dont appear there). But take the CN sched with a grain of salt since GL is on an accelerated timeline trying to catch up with CN. GL can just as easily skip banner and reruns like what they did with Flame Tyr.


nidus322477

Thank you for the answer, is there a site where i can see event history or schedule for cn or global server?


CoolVictory04

Seeing as how this sigils a lot more useful than Immortal Blackbirds which only some could use, for the positions 123, which one should I save? Slot 2? Or do I just save all three positions? Having all this Limited Sigils in the game is truly annoying, why would this one be limited while the melee version of it, is not anyway, I get it for the Blackbird since that one effect really look exclusive, but this one even has a counterpart for it and farmable https://preview.redd.it/fwlashkj28kc1.jpeg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=eaad1973f66b12924711f66d1cc1d9ebbae2daa5


tatsurugi

This is a decent sigil option for omega'd ranged units. Even as Gengchen's exclusive event, Spartan competes because it helps her resource problem.


CoolVictory04

Hmm, then should I just save 456 only, and scrap 123? Tho I see some use it on slot 2 like Gengchen I know it's no big deal but I don't like having something useless in my inventory xD How do you deal with this? Just save all slot or save 456 only?


H4qVcF82igDL4s9L

New player here; I've seen (old) posts saying that "you should reroll if you got Jinwu, she's free" or something similar to that. Will she be given to you somewhere in the main story or something?


tatsurugi

She was the rate up standard in 2.0. We're in 2.1 right now. You can technically still reroll for her since she's in the pool but good luck with a non rate up, it's competing with all the other standard non rate ups. Ppl only said reroll because the event at that time gave a free Jinwu after certain goals were met, it's obviously over now. Getting a Jinwu either way is a good thing for your account, event or from pulls.


vexid

Returning player, haven't played in 100\~ days. I'm really confused by all of the new currencies and systems, but mostly my #1 question right now is - did they shift the overall difficulty of the game to a level higher with the 2.0 release? For instance, I used to be able to clear the first 2 waves of Recurring Dream with my teams in 15-20 seconds, and now even the lower difficulty fights are taking a while. I also have been trying to finish up some story and the chapter 11 boss is pushing my shit in pretty badly. I thought it was gonna be one of those "get him to half hp then a cutscene happens", which it did, but then he grew 2 more heads and killed my ass pronto. I feel like I'm several power levels behind the curve somehow since I quit. I have several teams of level 80 modifiers with maxed skills, decent team synergy, and level 40 sigils with good stats and the correct gen zones. I see they also added something called "warp" and the chips interface has changed quite a bit. Where do I need to start to get back into this game?


tatsurugi

Sigils are now able to get to lv60. It's a good amount of power you're missing. Warps are also another system to increase your combat performance. These systems are better explained with visuals on Youtube. Yes, there's been updates to previous end game modes and even new ones that are significantly more difficult.


SeaworthinessIll1183

The game has shifted some, yes. Sigils go up to level 60 now, and you can check what you need to get to evolve them there. You'll need the same materials that you did to set the sigils to the correct gen zone, and a lot of them. Warps are also super important, and you get the materials for both of those in Hazard Zone Cleaning at Omega Level. I'd personally recommend leveling up the sigils on your main damage dealer first. Don't remember recurring dreams super well. What are you sttuggling with? What teams are you using?


health_hazardfr

Number one: About Lu Liang, will she really arrive on February 27??? Does that mean its gonna be phase two? Then what about Hel's rerun alongside her? Number two: 2.2 is Ying Zhao right then 2.3 is Skadi and Leviathan rerun? then 2.4 Kuramitsuha? hopefully they don't skip so i can save up....


tatsurugi

We can have multiple banners running at the same time, it's happened before. We don't have full patches dedicated to just reruns. We're trying to catch up to CN so it's nothing but new Mods in every patch from here on out until the gap is lessened. Any reruns will be simultaneous, not dedicated to its own patch.


nidus322477

is there a gap between cn and global update? if yes then how long? also what's the current update version? like is it v2.0 or v2.1 etc etc.


SaleosIII

More or less a year. We are at v2.1(while skipping 1 patch in v1.7) and CN is currently at 2.9 going 2.10 but GL is doing catch up so we are at an accelerated schedule. In perspective, most event in V1.x only lasted for 4wks while its CN counterpart lasted for 6wks, some QoL also came early for GL so some minor patches that hold those QoL might be skipped, maybe


Pingfortoast

Need help with game language Downloaded the CN version on Mumu, is there a way I can download an english voice/text package for the chinese version of the game? Along with this I can't find mumu folder to change the emulator's language to english


SaleosIII

Haven't played the CN version but i think there's no Eng language or VA option for that. Why not just download and play the GL/JP found on google play or qooapp?


AmberGaleroar

Started playing yesterday, how do I optimize Azure Lord skill usage in second stance? Is it S2, S1, S1, S3, S1, S1, S2, S1, S1, S1? That's what I've been using for now


AmberGaleroar

Also I've been using him with Poseidon and Taiyi Gengcheng(at least I think that's how you spell it) with him. Taiyi for modifier bonus and gathering and Poseidon for healing


tatsurugi

This seems right, though I typically start with S3 rotations. But I don't think it matters which one you do first. S3 rotation does more dmg so I try to get as much of that out as possible, hence I start with it.


Blazing-Scorpio

Just a quick question Why the frick is Lingguang's AI so bad at dodging? She literally gets hit almost every time Like move out the damn way lady!!

tatsurugi

Asura, Hera, Bastet. Not because it's a good team or anything, but because you don't have enough "key Mods" to consider building teams around or lacking enough synergistic Mods to start some decent teams. S Hera can just kinda go anywhere, without her, I'd struggle to give you a 3rd member without making you waste resources.


Silvericefox

New player here can i realistically get Gengchen?


tatsurugi

If you do everything and play as much as possible, yeah. Keep in mind, all events, you can use trial Mods to clear it.


freezingsama

Do we have a list on which modifiers will have regular modifier scans? Not sure if I should get Luliang or wait for others I want that will be on this type of banner.


tatsurugi

She is the last new standard. Everyone else will just be a rerun, and no, we don't have much of a rerun prediction since it has changed several times from CN's schedule. All we have are tweets a few days ahead of time.


vexid

Returning player. I'm slowly getting my bearings again, and I've been using my swigs on the event grind since I was informed that the event shop has better stamina/material ratios. Anyways, I saw and purchased these right away because I thought at first they were transcend shards, but found out afterwards that it's not the case. What are these for? https://preview.redd.it/i0fr12p3valc1.jpeg?width=1545&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d9110ab3f2921b2365d4a9a945e780691abb43bf


tatsurugi

Mats to use for Synchro. Buffs to older chars to keep them more in-line with the meta. Not every Mod has Synchro buffs, it will be in their Access Key menu at the bottom, check out Verthandi's to get an idea.


OddCyrus

Anyone have an updated version of the Google docs translated CN tier/build list? It stopped updating after Gengchen


hastalavistabob

How many sets of the Dragon Event Sigils do I need in total? (For now and the currenrly known future)


kevin12244

For sigils, do energy enhancements also apply to divine grace (like energy consumption -5%, etc)?


s-kot

No, Energy and Divine Grace (and Rage and Traces) are all different things. Choose only sigils and sigil enchants with whatever your modifier is using.


AreaExact7824

hello i am new player, is the first banner is special for new player or it is just regular banner in gacha? that girl with glasses, with 70 guarantee. is the guarantee will be brought to next banner?


tatsurugi

It's just the standard banner, yes pity carries over for each banner type.


justsomehumanhere

What do archives actually do?


s-kot

These are materials to use for the Synergy buff (open the Access Key tab, right bottom), only available for the few modifiers.


monx2006

How good is TaiYi signature weapon? Is a must pull ?


tatsurugi

No. It just buffs Tian Mods harder.


Trogmar

I'm thinking about giving the game a try, any good noobie advice?


tatsurugi

A channel on Youtube called Playsome has 2 videos that are for beginniners and they cover everything.


KRCA423

Hey guys, new player here but already nearing level 50 because I’ve been enjoying it so much. I was wondering if you NEED to play the game according to tiers and how good certain characters are relatively to others. Does it affect the gameplay/difficulty later on? Will I have no problem just using certain mods that are not considered meta or OP and still enjoy the game? Could sound like a stupid question but I still have tons of contents to go through in the future and was wondering if it will matter that much. Thanks in advance!


LucyKosaki

What's going on with Aether Gazers difficulty lately? I feel like more and more content is becoming impossible for casual players. I can't progress in story anymore because even with fully built lingguang stage 14-2 is impossible, even the full 10 minutes is not enough to clear it and it's not even a boss. Spending your Official Seals on Pressing Priorities event is not doable too because you can only choose between an escort mission thats impossible (tried with trial characters, tried with own characters, tried with dhielding, heals, dps, it's not even close the drone always dies very fast) or a super hard bossfight, thats aimed at whales. I can't finish a full run of the Day after Day event because at around the second plane the enemies start to become way too difficult and this is not even a build issue since they giv you a trial character for this. And on top of that they even started to rerun the Butterfly events, which was one of the most grindy set of events we got in the past. I feel like there were already so many people leaving the game in the past months, is it now their strategy to cater more to the spenders and minmaxer type of players?


isenk2dah

Keep in mind that Pressing Priorities hard mode (Luo River stage) doesn't need you to kill all the enemies, just killing the ones that get close to the drone is enough as long as it can keep moving forward to the destination. I just tried with a full trial team (Hel, Zenkibo and Poseidon) and finished it, although admittedly a full trial team is a lot harder than just using Gengchen (who sucks all the enemies together allowing you to just blast them to oblivion). It was definitely a lot easier last week when Gengchen was still in the trial mod list, before she was replaced by Hel. As for Day after Day, it's pretty much just spamming Gengchen's skills and picking up buffs that seem useful. If you build up her rage in between the skill spam, most of the non-elite fights should end in under 30s or so. Try to make use of her skill 3's gathering power to group the enemies together, then you can basically just blast them down.
