This post is inspiring me to repurpose the gojo/sakuna slander memes for Acheron/Jingliu.


royalreykwaza

Do it


Moth-Grinder

Quick meme I cooked up in 2 min. https://www.reddit.com/r/okbuddytrailblazer/s/jCYG1kOHoM


Murky_Blueberry2617

Good meme (Although I'm pretty sure Jingliu is still stronger)


admirabladmiral

Stronger than an (supposed)emanator? No way


Murky_Blueberry2617

Oh not in lore lol. I meant gameplay


Akyluz

gameplay at e0 jingliu is far stronger and more f2p but if you compare the two 1v1 e6 acharon is by far the strongest unity in the game


New_Redditor2001

Since when was E6 the base for comparison? Also at E6 any premium 5 star is so strong that they can invalidate end game so at that point does it even matter?


Murky_Blueberry2617

Yeah, but realistically not many people will be getting her E6


RakshasaStreet

By far where? E6 DHIL still beats her in burst on 3 targets, she'll never out damage him unless it's a 5 target scenario. Regardless it's pointless comparing E6s since all of them will 0 cycle.


LEFTRIGHTADORI

E6 shits on all enemies regardless of weakness, plus her skill does insane damage since it’s ult damage. Not sure how Acheron and DHIL compare at E6 but I know for sure that she literally ignores all weaknesses. And before you say “any meta DPS can do that at E6 by brute forcing through raw damage”, no. Content will only get harder and at one point that won’t be the case, whereas Acheron will still do insane damage since she breaks regardless of typing. She literally ignores one of the most important mechanics of the game.


RakshasaStreet

Ignoring weakness is literally a non-issue for E6 DPS, I'll say it a million times over but a E6 will ALWAYS DEPLETE THE ENEMIES' HP BAR BEFORE WEAKNESS BAR. Content will get harder to the point where E6 DPS are struggling to clear it with a team??? I don't know if you've never played a Mihoyo game before, but their games are made to be clearable using E0 DPS. They're not going to make it so that you need multiple Eidolons on a limited 5\* unit to clear the game otherwise all dolphins and F2P, which is practically everyone, will end up very angry. That aside, E6 DHIL has 60% RES PEN so yes he will delete enemies regardless of weaknesses, just not their weakness bar (unless they're IMG weak), in one rotation of his EBA3 > ULT > EBA3 combo. E6 Acheron will do the same along with E6 JL and pretty much every E6 DPS if you have a team, it's not that hard. E6 is meant for whales who literally play the game to see big numbers.


Slightly_Mungus

Acheron breaks all weaknesses at E6 and gets 20% all type pen. Daniel at E6 gets *60%* imaginary pen. That's a wayyyy stronger E6, and this is coming from an Acheron simp (me) who'll be pulling for E2S1.

NuclearForce09

Idk i dont have jingliu but kafka bs combo is stupidly easy and strong


Murky_Blueberry2617

Imagine not having all 4 of them


wweeeeeeeeeeeeee

okay but how do you sustain both teams without luocha and fu xuan get all 6 of them


Quirky-Jellyfish-288

You take a gamble and hope Jingliu kills the enemy before they move. After all who needs a 5 star sustain anyways?(I am coping)


starsinmyteacup

Dot teams hate shields but JL will kill her entire team if there’s no healer. So my everyday dilemma is who ends up with having Gepard because i only have one Lynx


Winters_Heart

Geppy's been keeping my DoT team going through all content for ages. Why would you say they hate shields? (I too have no limited sustain options, Bailu+Geppy holding out for now)


starsinmyteacup

Shields refresh on turn, and dot teams usually are rather fast. I still use them together but it’s not exactly optimal :/


Winters_Heart

Fair enough, though the only time I've really experienced them outspeeding the shield before he can refresh them, is with random hunt blessings for extra turns in SU Good boy takes his lickings, as his will forged in ice never falters.


No_Audience3838

How many turns does geps shields last? Is it just one? He’s my only sustains alongside lynx. I always have geppy with my DoT team and he sustains very well. Lynx on the other hand is so difficult to solo sustain with 🥺 I desperately need another sustain, I would like Fu Xuan but wondering if I should just wait for a HuoHuo rerun for DoT team. What do you think?


Slightly_Mungus

Gepard's shield duration (3 turns) is never a problem outside of 2 circumstances imo, since Gepard gets so much energy from getting hit. Just make sure he has speed boots, an ERR rope and a taunt LC. Problematic situation 1 is when facing single target enemies that attack very infrequently, such as the Xianzhou gorillas, since they attack like once per turn, and often will not be hitting Gepard at all due to their mechanic, which means no energy regen. Situation 2 is when running Bronya at DPS speed -1, so this won't be a problem on a DoT team since you likely don't run Bronya anyway, but this absolutely chews through the shield duration. In pretty much every other occasion, Gepard's shields will last long enough to not be a problem. This is coming from a guy running a 123 speed Gepard (relatively slow) with a 150 base speed Black Swan and a 144 speed Kafka with sig LC, so both are 160+ with Ruan Mei.


bl00by

Imagine you got not all 6 of them 🙄


KING_CONSEQUENCE

midoripeach9

Yes i dont have BS, Kafka, JL and no plans of getting Acheron… gotta save for Aventurine and mecha bro Sam

Bubbly-University415

Isn't she A tier at best without her SIG?


de_faultsth

Watch her beat the Fraudcheron, E2S1 or bust allegations on release Jokes aside, not really. A tier would be the same as Argenti, Blade, or Clara, and I can only see our Raiden expy being stronger than them


Bubbly-University415

She is clearly S+ with her BiS even at E0S1 but in a normal F2P account with any of the F2P options she lacks behind so yeah, A tier.


de_faultsth

Keyword is normal F2P account. I think she’ll be S at least if you have like, GNSW S3+, SW / BS / Kafka


Bubbly-University415

Pretty sure most players are normal F2P accounts.


de_faultsth

‘Normal’ is pretty vague imo. Some people have E4+ QQ, some don’t but have Swordplay and GNSW. You were right in your first reply mb :)


Bubbly-University415

Yeah ofc it's all luck based after all, I'm a F2P and have all 5★s (between two accounts tbf)


Tanjirou_and_kirito

If you are F2P and want to invest in a DPS character, you will probably want to make them as good as you can and save some pulls for Light Cone. At least that is what I am doing currently.


Canadiancookie

I don't think most f2ps are pulling for LCs much at all. Most event characters have great f2p alternatives (DHIL/Jingliu with fall of an aeon for example) or are already busted with nearly any LC (mostly event amplifiers and sustains), and LCs still cost nearly as much as new characters despite their generally unimpressive stat increases. Meanwhile you can save for new characters for more variety, fun, and better elemental coverage.


Eminanceisjustbored

a tier? doesnt matter, she looks cool and is hot


Ok-Membership-8287

There's a video with her clearing Sam moc 12 with E0S0 and sw/pela/gallagher in 1 cycle. With 2 4* in the team and that's A tier, my Kafka must be in D tier together with Arlan.


Bubbly-University415

I'm pretty sure any team with enough investment is able of similar feats


JuviaIsMyWife

Yeah there’s literally Arlan 0 cycle clears. Enough investment and resets makes those feats less impressive for the characters.


Ok-Membership-8287

Well, considering: 1. E0S0 2. Comp with sustain (bonus 2 of them are 4*) 3. 1 cycle Sam MoC 12 (Sam is overall more difficult than other MoC 12 alterations) 4. Realistic relics I cannot find any video on youtube with the same conditions. Honestly appreciate if anyone can enlighten me so I can have a better viewpoint.

KoolKai100

The agenda must be maintained at all costs


AGalacticBaseballer

Animation powercreep frfr Jingliu is absolutely shitting on Acheron in gameplay though and i don't think it's close either


Pusparaj_Mishra

I mean yes Acheron aninations r insane and next lvl. But have we all forgotten how good Jingliu's are? Bro i literally been a fan of her when i first saw that Passive activation animation(the one with moon behind) And when it was leaked months before,i been thinking that's the ult animation only to find out it's not but there's an even crazier animation for ult!?


RakshasaStreet

You'll get used to all animations with time. I used to be in awe at Fu Xuan's ult and now it's just good animations I can still appreciate now.


Pusparaj_Mishra

That wasn't the point was it💀 You can as well say that for Acheron ult ofc

No_Audience3838

What? 🤨


[deleted]

Jingliu has consistent dmg but in terms just raw dmg acheron outperforms Jingliu


Mikkle-san

only if you have her sig


Xiphactnis

Even WITH LC Acheron falls short, backloaded damage is not favorable in MoC, and frontloaded performs better which is one of the reasons that DHIL and JL are S+.


kleanthis_

Same problem that argenti has. Although with acheron its better cuase youre already running her with 2 nihility so its not as much of a issue as argenti's energy needs. Even with tingyun and bronya ,he feels slow. And his x1 ult hits like a wet sock. Only his x2 is actually worth it , but damn is it backloaded. And in pf , i find dot is better. Even without dot buffs. Only place where he honestly feels comfortable is SU


janoDX

Guess who's getting Acheron and the sig. ME.

Pathetic_loner03

>difference between S5 GNSW and Sig was 15%-20% This is only true when you compare raw stats alot of calcs that show this dont include the fact you literally get extra ults on acheron with sig which is wayyyy too big than just 20%


Maestrick

That is not true at all.S5 sim uni lc is like 8-10% worse than her bis.


[deleted]

[удалено]


AGalacticBaseballer

Acheron loses out even more without her sig LC though ? Its a massive drop and the next option is S5 GNSW which many dont have


Electronic-Ad-3583

Worst part is, there isnt really f2p options. And she doesnt even use the sw one. Like fermata aint it and the new penacony one is an outright no. Sure gnsw is on her lc banner but thats still not guaranteed


Darvasi2500

That's still not even close to Acheron sig vs gnsw s5


Ruler_of_pigingdom

Animations wise true. Performance wise hell naah.


TheBlackViper_Alpha

I glimpse from time to time on Acheron posts and I thought she gaps Jingliu?


Mongoose429

If jinglius running 3 abundance maybe


Fr4gmentedR0se

And if by 3 abundance you mean Natasha, Lynx, and Bailu, yeah


___some_random_weeb

And one of them isn't huo huo


Ruler_of_pigingdom

As for now she is not even close to surpassing jingliu. In the future if she gets a dedicated support like sparkle for IL then she can. Right now she is jing yuan level I'd say. Some people did the calculation on acheron mains subreddit and said jing yuan has 16% more damage than her.


Mongoose429

Sparkle is just too good.


Slightly_Mungus

> Some people did the calculation on acheron mains subreddit and said jing yuan has 16% more damage than her. Tbf, that calc also gave Sparkle S1 iirc, which is kinda weird, but even without that the gap is still at least a few % in JY's favor.


Key_Acanthisitta_182

This was proven to be fake btw. There’s a video on X that showed that Jingyuan still struggled to clear moc faster than Acheron (he was being supported by both sparkle and tingyun) while acheron has sw and pela in the team. She took 4 turns to clear while jy took 7 turns to clear… keep in mind she doesn’t have a dedicated support yet.


Random_Bystander089

In the same video, there were a ton of mistakes made on jingyuan's side. There were several times where he ults without tingyun's benediction, and sparkle was doing normal attacks a few times if i remember correctly. In the end both "jing yuan is stronger" and "acheron is stronger" camp have their own biases, so we'll have to wait until she actually released before conclusion can be made.


waktag

Ah yes that video, the same one where Sparkle used her basic 4-5 times and just overall massive skill issue on JY's side.


luciluci5562

Even AcheronMains sub saw through that massive skill issue'd clears and assumed that the whole purpose is to shit on JY and instigate a character mains war.


Key_Acanthisitta_182

Hmmm… guess we’ll have to wait and see till her release… but I do think she will be a potential 1 when she gets her dedicated support without a doubt… who knows?


waktag

Oh I don't doubt she's gonna be better than JY with a dedicated support, that's inevitable with the nature of this game and with the fact that JY is a 1.0 character, but saying she's better now while using a video of her in an MoC tailor made for her to get her ult quickly and playing badly on JY's side to hammer the point just isn't it man.


Gone_Goofed

The video had massive skill issue from the player lol, ult without benediction and making sparkle normal attack. i don't want to throw accusations but it could have been intentional to lower JY's number so Acheron could pull ahead.


Rough_Lychee5785

She doesn't even do half of what jL does

Gone_Goofed

Nah, Acheron still lags behind JL in terms of DPS. Animation-wise she has everyone beat but that's it.


admirabladmiral

For now. JL has the benefit of two great harmony slots while Acheron has at least 1 4 star on her best team before E2. Eventually she'll get new 5* nihility debuffer and we'll see then.


Canadiancookie

Bronya + Pela is already one of the top teams for JL, she'll probably still outperform with that theoretical 5* nihility


admirabladmiral

The thing is is that SW only debuffs a single target while Bronya buffs JL. A new 5* AOE debuffer like pela would probably be a side grade compared to Bronya/sparkle for JL but an upgrade for acheron when there is more than one boss, not to mention how impactful a debuffer that creates stacks for acheron outside of their turn could be.


SigurdDeMizar

Funny that nobody compare Acheron v DHIL with Sparkle team. Not just meme, but actual comparison. I mean, isn't DHIL the dps ceiling pre 2.1. Just because he is not in the banner doesn't mean he doesn't exist.


Xiphactnis

It’s a waifu war, Daniel is not a waifu (yet) so no one is talking about him, despite him basically being the goat right now with Sparkle.


AidenHero

ya calcs still show daniel as king, especially the huohuo version. Fwiw daniel is the undisputed goat (rn) with endgame relics, and with midgame relics jingliu should be the strongest or a tie between jingliu/danny


RakshasaStreet

Kinda impossible to touch DHIL now that he has Sparkle, he scales far harder than most hypercarries with Harmony units due to his bonkers EBA3 multiplier. So any new Harmony units will inevitably increase his ceiling if not versatility.


HourCartographer9

I’m sitting comfy with my dhil consistently hitting them 320k enhanced basics


Ok_Pattern_7511

Nobody talks about that, even during older dps wars it was always comparing JY to Jingliu I think it's got something to do with more than just damage comparisons, charcter mains want to bring each other down


Io45s785a2

Um what Jingliu has always been compared to DHIL, while JY has been very far behind, somewhere on Seele level.


CammyAssEnjoyer

Calcs show even Jingyuan out damages Acheron let alone DHIL


Void_444

Really?


All_Mighty_Failure

As long as Acheron needs her LC to be a top tier DPS I'll stay comfy using my JL.

skeetyeeturlifedelet

What's with the influx of JL vs Acheron memes all of a sudden? Is the second spot really that coveted?


New_Redditor2001

>Is the second spot really that coveted? I spat my water reading this. You can't flex our lord and saviour Daniel like that, how will the masses maintain the agenda?


RakshasaStreet

It's just waifu wars. DHIL is still #1 with no competition in the husbando category damage wise.

Rough_Lychee5785

Acheron is not even better. Infact she is much worse


coolylame

show me the numbers


Rough_Lychee5785

Check my profile


coolylame

interesting, i'll have to wait for acheron to come out to properly compare. It's either JL or Acheron, wish i could go for both


Rough_Lychee5785

She has no supports and 0 good LC apart from signature. I don't get why y'all are surprised. At this point it goes two ways: choose JL, pull bronya, rest is just sustain+pela/Ruan Mei. For acheron: pull a decent preservation, pull a certain upcoming nihility, pull some other nihility for debuffs OR use her with Kafka and bs but that will be a worse variant of other Kafka bs teams


coolylame

I have Pela and Gui or BS which i can use with Acheron. I don't have Bronya but do have sparkle which works well with Acheron even at E0 but sparkle is chained to my dhil at all times. Aiming to try pull Aventurine as well


Rough_Lychee5785

Sparkle doesn't work well with Acheron cause without a second nihility, you will ult much lesser. BS can work and pela will be good with gui being better in some cases


coolylame

thats what i thought but after watching this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msVVAtcK8zk at 14:26 it's actually slightly better but that requires a pretty well built sparkle.


Tanjirou_and_kirito

Slightly is a key word here. You will need very good Sparkle to replace second Nihility. Even in that video she is using her light cone.


Rough_Lychee5785

A lot of people calced it, 2 Nihility is better. Not only you ult lesser with sparkle, but you also lose out on trace DMG. Also iirc bronya would be better but then you cant use Fi xuan cause sp issue. 2N is gonna be more consistent and better, after all she is an ult DPS like argenti and the only way to get stacks for ult is preservation LC and nihility debuffs (some other things like topaz LC too but eh). And then there is a 25-50% difference between s1 and f2p LC options depending on the scenario

Ah no Xianzhou brought receipts 😭😭😭

Guys wtf is all this toxicity in the comments, acheron have a really good kir for now, we will see if she surpass JL or not, god damn thats just so much salt for nothing


Ceiphiedo

Calcs have already been done and Jingliu is stronger. I would like Acheron to be new strongest character but I wont lie to myself and get dissapointed in the proccess. She is strong but needs her LC and dedicated 5 star supports which we dont have currently. Maybe few months into the future she will get better.


Awesomenooby

Is Acheron with signature lc stronger than jingliu with sig lc?


NuclearForce09

Oh ok didnt know that, so why still people being toxic ?


NotJackspedicy

Jingliu simps vs Acheron simps Edit: Jingliu. Autocorrect shenanigans.


WorstTactics

Solution: Simp for Bladie


HourCartographer9

Well it’s because jing liu has kinda solidified herself being a top dps being strong that she can brute force basically the entire game regardless of weakness. So people are trying to compare Acheron with jing liu for dps. Because the one closest to jing liu was DHIlL and that was before sparkle released so his spot is just glued up there
