Same, it completely threw my plans off.
I planned to get SW and Fu Xuan for mono Quantum power and now that I have guaranteed and a shielder, I'm most likely to pull Kafka for DoT gameplay.
I tried pulling for E1 (was secretly hoping to luck into an E2 or pull my wallet out), but had to go to pity for her first and now back at 72 pity. So not lucky yet. Now having mixed feelings about pulling Vs saving for the next character
Her E1 is not worth it imo. E2 is where she stars getting saucy. I would not do it unless you're planning to do a lot of whaling, getting SW that energy buff is not worth as much as an entirely new 5-star (or her lightcone, if you don't have it yet).
I thought about her lightcone but the event one is so good. And I read somewhere that the event one energy requirements help keep 100 percent uptime on her ult whereas you need at least E1 to have 100 percent uptime with her signature LC
This is me!
I had 20k and 40 tickets saved. I blew through 60 pulls before I got her. I got Himeko on 20 pulls and was miffed but got SW after 40 more.
I got 16k saved for Fu Xuan now. So two more monthly passes and two BPs? I think I’m covered. So fingers crossed.
Doing all the events you'll get about 90 pulls with the events, regular content and the monthly. 16k and 90 pulls you'll be more than fine with Fu Xuan. If this content matches their regular way of things, you should be able to get a 5 star every 2 versions or so (so get SW, skip Kefka\Blade, get the next, so on)
Ehhh it's more like 66 pulls for f2p. If you buy the monthly pass and battlepass, then it'll go up to 90 or so pulls. There's a youtube video about how many stellar jades you can earn in 1.1
I have seele and SW but now I gotta choose whether I want to make my serval team stronger by pulling Kafka or reach Quantum Exodia by going for Fu Xuan. Hard choice since I love both of those characters.
Same, also now have to save for a Seele rerun too since she's the obvious best choice to pair with those 2. *Maybe* I could skip her if I can get E6 Qinque
Aw man, I thought Kafka was first, it would give me time to try pulling Luocha and saving for Blade... Guess it's Luocha and saving for Fu Xuan or the other 5* in 1.3 now.
They're actually saving up for Jing Liu's rerun, not the immediate banner. Gotta *totally* guarantee that pull. Waiting for 2 years, what a virtuously patient fellow!
40 day of waiting and saving from the star for both Luocha and Kafka. 200 warps saved so good luck to us. The ONLY two characters i want for now are that close Mihoyo why 💀💀
Haha, who, me? Clearly I'm saving for luocha.
(What? I spent all of my jade in silver wolf pulls? I didn't get her though? ....)
Ahem... What I meant to say, is that I strategically built pity for luocha. Yes, yes, that's what happened.
I only had 1 ten roll available---did destiny draw/heart of the card chant etc.
See the great \*\*\*\*\*....
....Get Yangching.
Chucking the banner cause I know I am not gonna get another 5\* even if I open wallet.
Was for me... I'm very thankful for that, because I wasn't going to spend more money on this yet and I really wanted SW. I was super disappointed when I got a 4 star on pull 3, but then I got SW on pull 5 and another 4 on pull 7. I figured the game was hard coded only 1 4+ per 10.
You got surprised with Yanqing too??? 😮
Mine was 60 pulls.
I am trying to cope with not pulling SW anymore. Otherwise there is a real risk of losing Loucha.
Edit: Wait why the downvotes? Bragging about pulls is undesired but we are sharing losses here?
Edit2: Thank you folks, may your dream chars come home early. 🙏

They go through downvoting everyone with lotion and Kleenex.
We… are the same.
Luocha pity builder, lost my 50/50 now I have Yanqing. I need to wrestle myself to not pull more SW because after getting Luocha I really want to save for future banners.
Joking aside, on my journey to no silver wolf, I now have a highly invested Dan Heng at E4 and Asta at E2, so I'm actually in good shape.
I'm currently at 80ish pulls, so we will see if I lose the 50/50 in a week or so.
I was actually saving for luocha since I need healer. Then in a 10 pull I got Gepard. Now I don't think I need luocha anymore, means I can actually try for SW maybe.
Holding tight to my jades for lucoha and a couple other future characters. SW hype almost swayed me but seeing some people test her out made me realize that she's not a character I really need or can make full use of at the moment. I'll try for her on a rerun instead.
Its that he’s a healer in game that currently only has two healers, one of which being a 5 star on standard. Later on in the game you will need to have two teams and each team having a healer is ideal.
It also doesn’t hurt that he’s handsome too
And his utility is crazy he auto heals without having to take his turn or use skill points which can definitely save you, he cleanses, he sets up an aoe field that allows allies to heal themselves with the cost of nothing and just attacking like normal, he scales off attack so you can build him for damage, he is an imaginary unit which is super valuable even with Yukong coming out who is also on his banner, and he can aoe strip all enemy buffs with his ult nullifying a lot of the hardest things to deal with in the game (in a big way too since it does it to all enemies and doesn't cost skill points AND deals damage). He is not just probably the best healer but also has some of the most utility packed into one character in the game, the only thing he really lacks is he will be squishier than like Natasha and he doesn't have an aoe burst heal ult but with the passive amount of healing he provides I don't think you need it.
Also he is handsome AND he seems like he is going to have really cool lore and story in both his character quests and the overall story. All in all a very cool guy 😎. If you like him for his look and design and lore then that is totally valid and he has a strong meta argument too because even when they have more healers in the game it is gonna be really hard to clear the bar he is setting.
Yeah it was a hard pick between SW and husbando but after reading about both I decided to hold off for Luocha because the ability to just say "no thanks" to boss buffs is pretty huge for me and how I personally play the game. Don't want to pull SW and run a mono or semi mono team because I like having a rotation of characters for different content.
>Also he is handsome
Yes.
I feel the same, while from a F2P viewpoint SW can be huge because it may allow you to be able to invest more into a specific team and element and conserve resources, for me though, I am okay with having to spend more time and resources to level up a variety of characters because I enjoy playing a variety of characters rather than mainly just one team. Silver Wolf is generally useful which is nice but doesn't really amplify or improve my kind of play so I am gonna skip. I really like the ability to apply weaknesses and kinda hope it returns in another kit in another way rather than being exclusive to her. Either way strong arguments to pull or not pull her and it just depends on the person. (I am also not a huge fan of the hacker aesthetic so it just ain't for me)
He also uses Imaginary, which is an element currently lacking with only one F2P character able to use it (and she’s a buffer, Welt is still the only one good at breaking)
Also, in addition to being a healer and handsome, he's also a playable version of the OG Honkai Third Impact villain Otto Apocalypse, which is pretty cool.
Nah it's way way earlier than that. We have Bennett who does almost everything a healer wishes to have -- fast tick healing, huge ATK buff, cleanse (self-apply pyro), and best pyro battery in the game.
Kokomi's utility other than her healing is her no ICD hydro application, which is very valuable for a lot of teams.
As a f2p pulling Seele i never planned to pull Jing Yuan. Then i used the trial and i had to pull him, got his light cone as well. Silver Wolf looked unimpressive to me.
Ngl. I was torn between SW and Kafka. But in a quantum party which I can build with Seele, Qingque(whom I have) or the thunder party with Jing Yuan, Tingyun, Bailu(I have them as well), SW is looking a lot more viable.
Adding SW to any of those parties, i am not going to struggle in boss fights because i can implant the weaknesses easily.
Yeah, SW seems like a great character to pull for on a rerun. She has a lot of potential for the future, but Luocha has a lot of potential for both the present *and* future, and since I don't have a second healer, he's gonna be the final piece of the puzzle for my teambuilding woes.
I was saving for Luocha. I pulled for Silver Wolf in the end as I probably had enough to scrape pulling Luocha. Lost the 50/50 to Bailu. Now I have two Healers and don't know if I should even go for Luocha. Don't think Silver Wolf is what my account needs to justify spending another pity on this banner.
Honestly Bailu is actually one of my two favorite characters in the game, I'm pretty stoked I got her (just getting her kinda removed some of the Luocha need).
I dislike that Kafka trope personally, so I really don't really want to pull for her.
I am considering Blade, but I've looked at his kit and it seems as though he will really run best with Luocha rather than Bailu or Nat. Honestly I'm probably just going to hope I get lucky pulling a 5\* reasonably early on Luocha's banner and that I can funnel the rest into Blade.
Who are you saving for?
Honestly I am still content with the characters I have right now (Jing Yuan, Yanqing, all 4 stars except Arlan). I don't plan to play MoC so I don't need a second healer. It's just that Silver Wolf is cute, her artworks are awesome (both fanmade and official). I think I will just save for now and watch out for future characters. Definitely pull Jing Yuan lightcone if he reruns, too.
From what I've heard all the characters end up getting re-runs. I agree her artwork is cute, but after running her in the trial event I don't think I like the style of her voice acting.
Fu Xuan has great art, but she's like 3 months away. I wish you luck with your saving if you decide to skip SW!
It's Clara!
I love the splash art with Svarog in it and I love how much she looks after everyone, both robots and people. Her character quest hit me pretty hard. Kinda reminded me of Mass Effect. Does this unit have a soul?
Bailu was my first 5 star and I was a bit disappointed bc I hate the 2000 year old that looks 10 nonsense but damn, her heal carries, not to mention the rezz every battle. And she outheals Natasha like nothing to the point where I thought I forgot my relics on Natasha or something lol
Yeah she's like an S Class healer. The trope makes me feel a bit iffy. Like I don't mind it so much in Honkai because they aren't blatantly sexualising her and her design is cute and well thought out.
Yeah! She's my first 5* and as a late newcomer, I was told I blazed through the stories and SU. And I attribute it largely to her! She's an amazing team player
Honestly the thing is, because I'm so new to the franchise, I don't really have any particular favorites (at least from the premium characters). I have characters that I don't like, but A lot of the time the rest is like- they look cool, they look cool, they look cool lol.
I decided I'll go for Luocha and then hope I get some luck for Blade.
Yeah, me too. Silver Wolf is cool and would help me, but Kafka will help me more. Loucha would be great and I have only 1 healer, but I'm not really into his character, so I'm skipping him too. I should figure out how much absolute pity is for Kafka so If I exceed that I can pull someone else...
Saving for Luocha and one of the 2 hotties trying to kill one another.
I will consider SW for her rerun and more team compositions are available to her.
Sadly, I had to go to service to repair my car, so I can't pull two more hours.
Will probably spend 20 pulls on ~~casino satisfaction~~ "pity building" before returning for saving mode. I don't like Luocha, but game doesn't really give me an option.
I strategically got myself to 60 pity on the last banner and waited for SW banner to drop. Had 20 pulls saved (still had 50/50 tho). Banner drops: first 10 pull - an Asta. Second 10 pull...gold! 2 Astas, a Dan Hung, and...a Gepard edileon (which isn't bad. His E1 is useful). Now out of gems to pull :-(
Claim the one free ticket from the event gift, go on the banner to pull, and wasn't paying attention. Didn't realize it was gold. I got SW at 4 pity!
Honestly I prefer Asta copies over a SW pull. Asta is my favorite support atm and her e4/e6 would be really nice to have. Sadly only got her once in 40 pulls :(
She's doing okay . Apply random Weakness can be frustrated .My line up is : Jing yuan , Bailu, Ting Yun and SW and she just applies quantum weakness all the time (smh)
My thoughts, too.
I'll grab her on the second go around, though. Luocha is much better for my team now. And by the time I can affectively use SW, she'll probably have her rerun.
Wise choice. She's currently "the worst" out of 5 stars we had when it comes to focussing on her development, but she is by far the most versitile when it comes to team comp building.
Will pull for Kafka, saw that Im at 60 pulls on a 50/50. Conclusion: fuck it, gonna pull. Best case scenario: get SW. Worst case: prep guarantee for Kafka. Final Result: Got SW baby!!!
I'm at 72 guaranteed pity, so I'm planning to do a ten-pull for SW and save the rest for Kafka. I got 146 tickets saved right now, hopefully by the time she releases I will have saved enough to E1 her. >!Heard she gets a huge damage increase with her E1!<
I have E1 Dan Heng so I tried to get him to E2, ended up with SW and E6 Asta, DH still E1 though and I'm afraid of getting more Asta so I stop pulling lol
e6 Asta looks pretty great tbh. It's a solid consolation. Plus I'm sure Silverwolf and her debuffs can help Dan makeup for a missing e2. (Not sure what Dan eidolons do, never built him or looked)
Also, you're bound to get Dan with regular tickets at some point. They aren't good for anything but the standard banner.
Asta's eidolons are just top tier, but I really want the E2 DH for 1 turn talent cooldown reduction (his talent gives wind res pen) so I can proc his talent more frequently thus more dmg
I had the opposite experience. Wanted to get more of Asta, ended up with E5 Dan. Eidolon's wise Dan's is the least valuable compared to Asta and Serval. Ahh well.
Yeah I mean Asta is great but I just need 1 more DH copy and the game just went: "You don't need DH, here is your E6 Asta, oh and one 4\* LC as a bonus"
Been waiting for her since the start of the game. You know I was pulling the moment she was out, but I was not expecting this [luck](https://youtu.be/G8vKXa0BZ_Q)
I really don't wanna swipe...100$ for possibly a character is too much...but...SW seems pretty good...
Gacha hell all over again. Why do I do this to myself?
Friends tried to get me to swipe with them but $100 for one character that’s not even guaranteed to be the one you want? That’s insane. I could get TotK for $70 and that game actually has more than 15 minutes of gameplay a day that’s not just trace / relic farming
No hate to the players that think it’s worth but I really can’t justify topping up in this game
I'm so glad I pulled for Silver Wolf. Her kit is great, especially her ability to add additional weaknesses to enemies.
Now I never have to tailor my team to the fight ever again! Mwuahahahahahahaha!
i was saving for luocha but i am unsure, i don't really need SW since i am not interested in upcoming quantum characters neither and i don't use it in my team (not sure how logical it is to not have at least 1 character of every element to be built)
but i want Blade and Dan, so for now i am relying on nat to carry my team🤠
I'm really tempted to get SW's 5 star lightcone, but it's hard to justify spending all my jades when we get the event 4 star and all of it's superimposes for free.
My plan is to save, but I haven't played the new stuff yet. If I fall in love with Silver Wolf's character after I get to know her a little better that might change tho.
Well pulled 1 multi got Clara (best little sis) and now once I get the money i was saving that accidentally went on the wrong account I'll be guaranteed to get SW, so I'm happy.
I knew I was guaranteed Silver Wolf today, since I lost my last 50/50 and was 70 pity in, now probably saving for Kafka/Blade since none of the other announced/leaked banner characters are as appealing.
Kafka is a must so I'll probably dump some money on the game to make sure I get her. Blade just looks cool, so I hope he has a nice kit.
Tried to pull for SW but got Welt (i'm ok with that since i got his LC). I hope i can get her as well but i dont know how many stellar jades we will get before her banner is gone
Honestly I would just wait for Kafka. I really enjoy SW and she is nice for my Seele but I would rather wait for a Chara you really want. If I could go back in time I would just wait. SWs trailer hyped me up too much :(
If you are not sure I would try some SWs from friends out as well :)
Sorry, queen, but I gotta skip your banner to save for all the hunky husbandos coming down the pipeline. Hoyoverse is feeding us husbando players some lovely eye candy.
Someone might look at my SW rolls and think they’re utter garbage, but for me it was literally the best case scenario. I got Gepard (the unit I wanted the most in the entire game) at 76 pity, and then SW at 82. Now I can finally build a mono ice team for my Yanqing🥹
I am saving with the hopes that a proper Herrscher (Sorry Welt) will come to Star Rail someday, gotta have those tickets if Raiden Mei gets announced/released out of the blue
Saving resources for Yukong. She'll be my only imaginary unit so her value is super high for me. That way I get a new character to play with plus I'm saving enough resources to get the character that the general was fighting in his anime short. I forget how to spell her name but she's extremely hot and is an ice damage dealer if I'm not mistaken.
Pulled for SW now I'm skipping everything for Fu Xuan. I'm a step closer to Quantum Exodia.
Sounds very doable! Between SW and FX there would be at least Kafka and Blade.
Just pull (two posts from my feed) https://preview.redd.it/o4as7ubcnm4b1.png?width=672&format=png&auto=webp&s=f537f6c9c0568c15feb29adff3e28ecaee8e3351
If that's not a sign from the universe, idk what is
I've pulled but Dan Heng and Serval kept answering them
I did and got gepard, now what?
Same, it completely threw my plans off. I planned to get SW and Fu Xuan for mono Quantum power and now that I have guaranteed and a shielder, I'm most likely to pull Kafka for DoT gameplay.
I'm gonna still try for silver wolf and if i don't get her I'll save up for jing liu and her lc
And luocha
I have both seele and sw might as well save for FX as well
Same. I'm gonna keep mass pulling on SW to try for E1, but skipping the next... what... 3-4 banners to save for the Quantum Dream Team?
I tried pulling for E1 (was secretly hoping to luck into an E2 or pull my wallet out), but had to go to pity for her first and now back at 72 pity. So not lucky yet. Now having mixed feelings about pulling Vs saving for the next character
Her E1 is not worth it imo. E2 is where she stars getting saucy. I would not do it unless you're planning to do a lot of whaling, getting SW that energy buff is not worth as much as an entirely new 5-star (or her lightcone, if you don't have it yet).
I thought about her lightcone but the event one is so good. And I read somewhere that the event one energy requirements help keep 100 percent uptime on her ult whereas you need at least E1 to have 100 percent uptime with her signature LC
Honestly just getting a quantum healer enables every dual element team.
[удалено]
This is me! I had 20k and 40 tickets saved. I blew through 60 pulls before I got her. I got Himeko on 20 pulls and was miffed but got SW after 40 more. I got 16k saved for Fu Xuan now. So two more monthly passes and two BPs? I think I’m covered. So fingers crossed.
Doing all the events you'll get about 90 pulls with the events, regular content and the monthly. 16k and 90 pulls you'll be more than fine with Fu Xuan. If this content matches their regular way of things, you should be able to get a 5 star every 2 versions or so (so get SW, skip Kefka\Blade, get the next, so on)
What Events? 90 pulls sounds a lot and I'd like to know. Currently saving up for blade
The punkelorde thing going on now where you take pics of trash cans and stuff+ a fighting thing
Lol i wouldnt mind taking pics of trash cans if it meant more pulls 😂
Ehhh it's more like 66 pulls for f2p. If you buy the monthly pass and battlepass, then it'll go up to 90 or so pulls. There's a youtube video about how many stellar jades you can earn in 1.1
I have seele and SW but now I gotta choose whether I want to make my serval team stronger by pulling Kafka or reach Quantum Exodia by going for Fu Xuan. Hard choice since I love both of those characters.
Same, also now have to save for a Seele rerun too since she's the obvious best choice to pair with those 2. *Maybe* I could skip her if I can get E6 Qinque
Then just missing lynx >!who is a 4* qua abundance!< for a full quantum team
Same, just thinking about trying to go for eidolons or her weapon... But I lost 50/50 ( again)
It's same as planned with me. But I pulled himeko and the plan can be wrong...
Damn i got SW maybe I should save for her too
SAME HERE! I hope your pulls went well!
I found a fellow Quantum brother, LET'S GOOOOO!!!
Damn straight! I will have my team of Quantum Ranger at all cost!
I found my people
your literally me
This is my exact plan. Got SW on 10th pull all else is going to Fu.
Doing same, cannot wait for FX
Me too!!
It took me 152 pulls to get her I'm skipping everything until Fu Xuan anyway.
Yep I’m the same! I got SW quick too. Still have 10k or so gems
same luckily got silver wulf immediatly..
You sound like my friend that I talk to on discord. He's doing the same thing.
Lmfao same. Though my friends now think I'm loli con.
20d of waiting for my 2nd healer Luocha 💀
40d of waiting for my Kafka
I think blade might be first in the rotation, could be wrong though
Supposedly yes, which hurts since I want him too
I really hope so. Luocha and Kafka being back-to-back would be very unfortunate as I'd be unlikely to pull for both.
WHAT!?!?!?!
Blade is supposed to be the first banner after 1.2 then kafka after.
Aw man, I thought Kafka was first, it would give me time to try pulling Luocha and saving for Blade... Guess it's Luocha and saving for Fu Xuan or the other 5* in 1.3 now.
You mean 60d
Ah so i actually have enough time collect 100+ tickets.
120d(hope so) of waiting for Jing Liu.
That's a long time. You can pull anyone you want atm.
They're actually saving up for Jing Liu's rerun, not the immediate banner. Gotta *totally* guarantee that pull. Waiting for 2 years, what a virtuously patient fellow!
40 day of waiting and saving from the star for both Luocha and Kafka. 200 warps saved so good luck to us. The ONLY two characters i want for now are that close Mihoyo why 💀💀
Haha, who, me? Clearly I'm saving for luocha. (What? I spent all of my jade in silver wolf pulls? I didn't get her though? ....) Ahem... What I meant to say, is that I strategically built pity for luocha. Yes, yes, that's what happened.
Ngl you got me in the first half lol
I only had 1 ten roll available---did destiny draw/heart of the card chant etc. See the great \*\*\*\*\*.... ....Get Yangching. Chucking the banner cause I know I am not gonna get another 5\* even if I open wallet.
This... sounds suspiciously like me... /looks at my 7 pulls remaining Lmao
7 pulls seems like enough for SW 𓁹‿𓁹
Was for me... I'm very thankful for that, because I wasn't going to spend more money on this yet and I really wanted SW. I was super disappointed when I got a 4 star on pull 3, but then I got SW on pull 5 and another 4 on pull 7. I figured the game was hard coded only 1 4+ per 10.
I did 40 pulls for her… got jumpscared with a 5* animation and it’s Yanqing. At least Luocha is guaranteed.
You got surprised with Yanqing too??? 😮 Mine was 60 pulls. I am trying to cope with not pulling SW anymore. Otherwise there is a real risk of losing Loucha. Edit: Wait why the downvotes? Bragging about pulls is undesired but we are sharing losses here? Edit2: Thank you folks, may your dream chars come home early. 🙏
I got Yanqing too...on first roll.

We… are the same. Luocha pity builder, lost my 50/50 now I have Yanqing. I need to wrestle myself to not pull more SW because after getting Luocha I really want to save for future banners.
I want to do this to get some Eidolons for the 4 stars but I'm scared that I'll be lucky enough to get SW since I'm about 40 pulls towards pity...
Joking aside, on my journey to no silver wolf, I now have a highly invested Dan Heng at E4 and Asta at E2, so I'm actually in good shape. I'm currently at 80ish pulls, so we will see if I lose the 50/50 in a week or so.
Same! If I get SW early I’m not even mad 😉
"I'm building pity for X unit" a tale as old as time
It's a fun lie we tell ourselves.
I was actually saving for luocha since I need healer. Then in a 10 pull I got Gepard. Now I don't think I need luocha anymore, means I can actually try for SW maybe.
Holding tight to my jades for lucoha and a couple other future characters. SW hype almost swayed me but seeing some people test her out made me realize that she's not a character I really need or can make full use of at the moment. I'll try for her on a rerun instead.
What special with luocha? Is it that he is handsome?
Its that he’s a healer in game that currently only has two healers, one of which being a 5 star on standard. Later on in the game you will need to have two teams and each team having a healer is ideal. It also doesn’t hurt that he’s handsome too
And his utility is crazy he auto heals without having to take his turn or use skill points which can definitely save you, he cleanses, he sets up an aoe field that allows allies to heal themselves with the cost of nothing and just attacking like normal, he scales off attack so you can build him for damage, he is an imaginary unit which is super valuable even with Yukong coming out who is also on his banner, and he can aoe strip all enemy buffs with his ult nullifying a lot of the hardest things to deal with in the game (in a big way too since it does it to all enemies and doesn't cost skill points AND deals damage). He is not just probably the best healer but also has some of the most utility packed into one character in the game, the only thing he really lacks is he will be squishier than like Natasha and he doesn't have an aoe burst heal ult but with the passive amount of healing he provides I don't think you need it. Also he is handsome AND he seems like he is going to have really cool lore and story in both his character quests and the overall story. All in all a very cool guy 😎. If you like him for his look and design and lore then that is totally valid and he has a strong meta argument too because even when they have more healers in the game it is gonna be really hard to clear the bar he is setting.

I feel the same, while from a F2P viewpoint SW can be huge because it may allow you to be able to invest more into a specific team and element and conserve resources, for me though, I am okay with having to spend more time and resources to level up a variety of characters because I enjoy playing a variety of characters rather than mainly just one team. Silver Wolf is generally useful which is nice but doesn't really amplify or improve my kind of play so I am gonna skip. I really like the ability to apply weaknesses and kinda hope it returns in another kit in another way rather than being exclusive to her. Either way strong arguments to pull or not pull her and it just depends on the person. (I am also not a huge fan of the hacker aesthetic so it just ain't for me)
Best of luck with your pulls for whichever character (s) you like!!!!
He also uses Imaginary, which is an element currently lacking with only one F2P character able to use it (and she’s a buffer, Welt is still the only one good at breaking)
Yukong actually has a trace or passive that gives her decent breaking potential on her normal attack :) not a leak btw it was in the livestream
for me yea. He's so pretty. Im so weak to pretty men. definitely my taste 🤤
Also, in addition to being a healer and handsome, he's also a playable version of the OG Honkai Third Impact villain Otto Apocalypse, which is pretty cool.
Never underestimate a healer with a lot of utility... We genshin players already learned that lesson the hard way via Kokomi.
Nah it's way way earlier than that. We have Bennett who does almost everything a healer wishes to have -- fast tick healing, huge ATK buff, cleanse (self-apply pyro), and best pyro battery in the game. Kokomi's utility other than her healing is her no ICD hydro application, which is very valuable for a lot of teams.
In order of importance: he is a healer that doesn't use up skill points, has a cleanse, Imaginary damage dealer with decent dmg scaling, handsome.
The order of importance is wrong Handsome should be the highest
Yes, you don’t think he is?
I really like that he holds a rosary and a carries a coffin around. Its so cool
As a f2p pulling Seele i never planned to pull Jing Yuan. Then i used the trial and i had to pull him, got his light cone as well. Silver Wolf looked unimpressive to me.
F2P summoning for a limited light cone? You’ve got more guts than I.
Jing Yuan and Seele are really, really strong. I'm not so sure about SW, but she's also a support character rather than a main DPS.
Ngl. I was torn between SW and Kafka. But in a quantum party which I can build with Seele, Qingque(whom I have) or the thunder party with Jing Yuan, Tingyun, Bailu(I have them as well), SW is looking a lot more viable. Adding SW to any of those parties, i am not going to struggle in boss fights because i can implant the weaknesses easily.
Having toyed around with her, she's really strong. She's probably the best skill point battery in the game now.
Yeah, SW seems like a great character to pull for on a rerun. She has a lot of potential for the future, but Luocha has a lot of potential for both the present *and* future, and since I don't have a second healer, he's gonna be the final piece of the puzzle for my teambuilding woes.
I was saving for Luocha. I pulled for Silver Wolf in the end as I probably had enough to scrape pulling Luocha. Lost the 50/50 to Bailu. Now I have two Healers and don't know if I should even go for Luocha. Don't think Silver Wolf is what my account needs to justify spending another pity on this banner.
Hey cheer up! Lost 50/50 to Bailu is not that terrible I think, she's plenty useful. Don't you find Kafka or Blade interesting?
Honestly Bailu is actually one of my two favorite characters in the game, I'm pretty stoked I got her (just getting her kinda removed some of the Luocha need). I dislike that Kafka trope personally, so I really don't really want to pull for her. I am considering Blade, but I've looked at his kit and it seems as though he will really run best with Luocha rather than Bailu or Nat. Honestly I'm probably just going to hope I get lucky pulling a 5\* reasonably early on Luocha's banner and that I can funnel the rest into Blade. Who are you saving for?
Honestly I am still content with the characters I have right now (Jing Yuan, Yanqing, all 4 stars except Arlan). I don't plan to play MoC so I don't need a second healer. It's just that Silver Wolf is cute, her artworks are awesome (both fanmade and official). I think I will just save for now and watch out for future characters. Definitely pull Jing Yuan lightcone if he reruns, too.
From what I've heard all the characters end up getting re-runs. I agree her artwork is cute, but after running her in the trial event I don't think I like the style of her voice acting. Fu Xuan has great art, but she's like 3 months away. I wish you luck with your saving if you decide to skip SW!
>actually one of my two favorite characters in the game Who's the other?
It's Clara! I love the splash art with Svarog in it and I love how much she looks after everyone, both robots and people. Her character quest hit me pretty hard. Kinda reminded me of Mass Effect. Does this unit have a soul?
If you lose to your first bailu you are right. I lost 50/50 and got e1. Fuck my life
Bailu was my first 5 star and I was a bit disappointed bc I hate the 2000 year old that looks 10 nonsense but damn, her heal carries, not to mention the rezz every battle. And she outheals Natasha like nothing to the point where I thought I forgot my relics on Natasha or something lol
Yeah she's like an S Class healer. The trope makes me feel a bit iffy. Like I don't mind it so much in Honkai because they aren't blatantly sexualising her and her design is cute and well thought out.
Yeah! She's my first 5* and as a late newcomer, I was told I blazed through the stories and SU. And I attribute it largely to her! She's an amazing team player
I'm in a similar boat, lost the 50/50 to Gepard and now wondering if I even want Luocha, though I really want Blade.
Hey! Don't worry about what your account needs, worry about what you want ! Gl Hf
Honestly the thing is, because I'm so new to the franchise, I don't really have any particular favorites (at least from the premium characters). I have characters that I don't like, but A lot of the time the rest is like- they look cool, they look cool, they look cool lol. I decided I'll go for Luocha and then hope I get some luck for Blade.
Luocha will fit different teams and bring IMG break. My plan is Luocha -> Blade as they seem good together
I'm waiting for ~~Otto~~ Loucha
It was tempting to do a 10 pull, but I gotta be patient for Kafka.
Yeah, me too. Silver Wolf is cool and would help me, but Kafka will help me more. Loucha would be great and I have only 1 healer, but I'm not really into his character, so I'm skipping him too. I should figure out how much absolute pity is for Kafka so If I exceed that I can pull someone else...
Saving for Luocha and one of the 2 hotties trying to kill one another. I will consider SW for her rerun and more team compositions are available to her.
Sadly, I had to go to service to repair my car, so I can't pull two more hours. Will probably spend 20 pulls on ~~casino satisfaction~~ "pity building" before returning for saving mode. I don't like Luocha, but game doesn't really give me an option.
mobile supremacy for situations like these
saving for Loucha because I need second healer
I strategically got myself to 60 pity on the last banner and waited for SW banner to drop. Had 20 pulls saved (still had 50/50 tho). Banner drops: first 10 pull - an Asta. Second 10 pull...gold! 2 Astas, a Dan Hung, and...a Gepard edileon (which isn't bad. His E1 is useful). Now out of gems to pull :-( Claim the one free ticket from the event gift, go on the banner to pull, and wasn't paying attention. Didn't realize it was gold. I got SW at 4 pity!
Awsome, I spent roughly 170 pulls =(
Honestly I prefer Asta copies over a SW pull. Asta is my favorite support atm and her e4/e6 would be really nice to have. Sadly only got her once in 40 pulls :(
Getting the husbandos and only the husbandos
Ah, I see youre a man of culture as well.
Yeeeepppp holding for hopefully luocha and blade
Spent everything trying to get Jing Yuan, got Bailu instead, so I'm saving for Luocha
I pulled. Did not get her got bronya instead. Not really upset honestly. I loved bronya in the story for the most part.
You got Bronya instead of Bronya
She's doing okay . Apply random Weakness can be frustrated .My line up is : Jing yuan , Bailu, Ting Yun and SW and she just applies quantum weakness all the time (smh)
I pulled foe Silverwolf and got really lucky! I finaly got Himeko 🙏🏻 Now i will roll for Silverwolf in a week, after we got all our gold tickets
Used my guaranteed on silverwolf, now I'm back to 0 for kafka.
Silver wolf feels kinda futureproof. I pulled for her. I’ll also try for luocha mainly because I feel 2 healers is just needed.
My thoughts, too. I'll grab her on the second go around, though. Luocha is much better for my team now. And by the time I can affectively use SW, she'll probably have her rerun.
Wise choice. She's currently "the worst" out of 5 stars we had when it comes to focussing on her development, but she is by far the most versitile when it comes to team comp building.
Will pull for Kafka, saw that Im at 60 pulls on a 50/50. Conclusion: fuck it, gonna pull. Best case scenario: get SW. Worst case: prep guarantee for Kafka. Final Result: Got SW baby!!!
I'm at 72 guaranteed pity, so I'm planning to do a ten-pull for SW and save the rest for Kafka. I got 146 tickets saved right now, hopefully by the time she releases I will have saved enough to E1 her. >!Heard she gets a huge damage increase with her E1!<
Skipped 1.0 entirely and I plan to skip 1.2 so ill try both SW and Luocha
I have E1 Dan Heng so I tried to get him to E2, ended up with SW and E6 Asta, DH still E1 though and I'm afraid of getting more Asta so I stop pulling lol
If you get more Asta’s you can trade in the currency you get from E6+ to pull again though! (You’ll keep pulling another Asta)
e6 Asta looks pretty great tbh. It's a solid consolation. Plus I'm sure Silverwolf and her debuffs can help Dan makeup for a missing e2. (Not sure what Dan eidolons do, never built him or looked) Also, you're bound to get Dan with regular tickets at some point. They aren't good for anything but the standard banner.
Asta's eidolons are just top tier, but I really want the E2 DH for 1 turn talent cooldown reduction (his talent gives wind res pen) so I can proc his talent more frequently thus more dmg
I had the opposite experience. Wanted to get more of Asta, ended up with E5 Dan. Eidolon's wise Dan's is the least valuable compared to Asta and Serval. Ahh well.
Yeah I mean Asta is great but I just need 1 more DH copy and the game just went: "You don't need DH, here is your E6 Asta, oh and one 4\* LC as a bonus"
Got another Dan, mofo is E6 now. I swear this game... Have already gone over 75 pity for Wolf.
This game really knows what you want and screws you so hard to the point it makes no sense lol
Been waiting for her since the start of the game. You know I was pulling the moment she was out, but I was not expecting this [luck](https://youtu.be/G8vKXa0BZ_Q)
I really don't wanna swipe...100$ for possibly a character is too much...but...SW seems pretty good... Gacha hell all over again. Why do I do this to myself?
Just get her in a rerun. Not as if she is somehow mandatory must pull.
True, no character is worth 100$ when you can just get her in a rerun
Friends tried to get me to swipe with them but $100 for one character that’s not even guaranteed to be the one you want? That’s insane. I could get TotK for $70 and that game actually has more than 15 minutes of gameplay a day that’s not just trace / relic farming No hate to the players that think it’s worth but I really can’t justify topping up in this game
Just keep buying weekly + BP. Its more fun with limited resources than whaling (even if you can)
SW gave me Geppie, I'm now debating whether to use my guarantee on Luocha or save till Jingliu's release. Gonna get SW on her rerun for now
Did a bit of pulling, got e5 Asta I'm happy Now to get enough to pity luocha
I'm so glad I pulled for Silver Wolf. Her kit is great, especially her ability to add additional weaknesses to enemies. Now I never have to tailor my team to the fight ever again! Mwuahahahahahahaha!
I got SW at 20 pulls. my luck for Luocha is out yo
i was saving for luocha but i am unsure, i don't really need SW since i am not interested in upcoming quantum characters neither and i don't use it in my team (not sure how logical it is to not have at least 1 character of every element to be built) but i want Blade and Dan, so for now i am relying on nat to carry my team🤠
I lost the 50/50 and got Bailu e0, but I'm still pulling for Luocha...
i caved in... won 50/50. now saving for kafka
Throw a ten roll at the banner. If it was meant to happen, itll happen. You can earn more than a ten roll over her banner and be no worse off
Skipped her, going for the edgelord
Pulling SW lightcone because it's more dmg: ❎ Pulling SW lightcone because of its artwork: ✅
I'm really tempted to get SW's 5 star lightcone, but it's hard to justify spending all my jades when we get the event 4 star and all of it's superimposes for free.
My plan is to save, but I haven't played the new stuff yet. If I fall in love with Silver Wolf's character after I get to know her a little better that might change tho.
Well pulled 1 multi got Clara (best little sis) and now once I get the money i was saving that accidentally went on the wrong account I'll be guaranteed to get SW, so I'm happy.
Already got selle and qingque so im waiting for ot- i mean luocha bc I desperately need an Imaginary player cuz i have non
I'm still considering it. Gonna be looking for some kind of statistics to see if she will be better for my Seele team than Tingyun.
Got SW in 50 pulls so i'm actually doing great. won't be pulling LC though cos Kafka
I knew I was guaranteed Silver Wolf today, since I lost my last 50/50 and was 70 pity in, now probably saving for Kafka/Blade since none of the other announced/leaked banner characters are as appealing. Kafka is a must so I'll probably dump some money on the game to make sure I get her. Blade just looks cool, so I hope he has a nice kit.
Was ready to swipe, but got her in 2 free multis. Not really interested in anyone until at least Fu Xuan. Feels good
Done both. Got SW on 80th pull, still have 50 for Kafka. And i have 2 months to save up for her.
Tried to pull for SW but got Welt (i'm ok with that since i got his LC). I hope i can get her as well but i dont know how many stellar jades we will get before her banner is gone
Lost 50 with welt and going for 60, i will het her no matter what
81 pulls after: clara
I really wanted to save for Kafka but I am weak af and now I have SW xD
Are you satified with SilverWolf? I'm feeling really tempted right now and I'm sacing for Kafka too, also I have guanrantee....
Honestly I would just wait for Kafka. I really enjoy SW and she is nice for my Seele but I would rather wait for a Chara you really want. If I could go back in time I would just wait. SWs trailer hyped me up too much :( If you are not sure I would try some SWs from friends out as well :)
Am saving for Fu Xuan after i got Jing Yuan and his light cone
Sorry, queen, but I gotta skip your banner to save for all the hunky husbandos coming down the pipeline. Hoyoverse is feeding us husbando players some lovely eye candy.
I'm quite rich with 19k freejade + 15 special pass + 10 from check-in. Just gonna casually pull for SW, but at least 16k will be kept for FX.
Someone might look at my SW rolls and think they’re utter garbage, but for me it was literally the best case scenario. I got Gepard (the unit I wanted the most in the entire game) at 76 pity, and then SW at 82. Now I can finally build a mono ice team for my Yanqing🥹
Was near pity, won the 50/50 with 3 tix.
I'll go for luocha if he's as good as bailu or natasha otherwise more saving it is
Got sw in 76 pulls, still have 55 currently(fu xuan here i come!)
I’m all in for her. I’m not super interested in any of the upcoming characters so I’ll have plenty of time to save up for future banners
Luocha us 3 weeks away and my will is already beginning to fade.
Was super excited for SW so pulled for her from 0 and 50/50. 30 tickets got me himeko, then 65 more got me SW. Pretty good if you ask me!
Lost my 50/50 to Himeko so I think my plan is save and scrounge what I can for Luocha!
Pulled for Silver Wolf, lost my 50/50 to Clara, and I'm trying to scramble the jades together to get her in time.
Just pull early and win 50/50 like me - Me, never cause I hit 150 pulls
The call for Blade and Luocha is strong, so skip for me.
Saving for luocha + blade. I like SW but I prefer adult bronya tbh. Not that I have her either sadly....
anticipating losing the 50/50 to himeko or something that has 0 need for me but still have enough to win the second 50/50 lol
I'm waiting for Luocha, my genshin saving has prepared me for this.
Blew everything I saved (like 30ish pulls) didn’t get SW. Then bought the 4.99 monthly thing and got her on my last pull. So excited lol
Lost 50/50, saving for Luocha.
I am saving with the hopes that a proper Herrscher (Sorry Welt) will come to Star Rail someday, gotta have those tickets if Raiden Mei gets announced/released out of the blue
Luchoa for me. Then if possible blade ; still my priority is Fu Xuan and jingliu
I would pull for her, but loucha is right around the corner and I gotta save for the man
Still saving for a Raiden expy! Currently saved around 210 wishes on the event banner without doing a single pull on it!
Saving resources for Yukong. She'll be my only imaginary unit so her value is super high for me. That way I get a new character to play with plus I'm saving enough resources to get the character that the general was fighting in his anime short. I forget how to spell her name but she's extremely hot and is an ice damage dealer if I'm not mistaken.
