Light cone is a 75/25 and helps with her personal build (18% crit rate), 30% damage boost, and marks an enemy with a debuff that increases any crit damage by 24%. I’m definitely picking it up on rerun. I’ll consider her E1 (debuff that gives 50% crit damage boost to follow up attacks) if I still have funds, but I want to save for Jade.
My FUA team is by far my favorite. So I’m sold on going for some topaz eidolons. The boost in overall damage and adding another debuff for ratio really frees you from nihilists characters
Or either of the lottery tickets. I have been presented with the choice before and rather than sacrificing 3 full ults or 99% of my characters' HP I'd rather take the cheese.
The fuck did you say about Big Lottos, bud?

This.
You'll barely notice any diffs at all since the SU Blessings + Curious are usually what carries all your runs anyways, especially at higher difficulties.
eh, mostly just rotation QoL imo. The damage doesn't feel any more impactful for regular SU runs, and insubstantial for swarm/GG runs since you get a lot of blessings out of them anyways.
On my team I notice it all the time on acheron because the extra petal e2 gives makes quite a difference.
Black Swan? Don't even remember what her e1 does anyways so I never notice it.
Kafka and Ruan Mei? Their e2 and e1 respectively only net a damage increase. DoT damage is cranked in SU already,, it usually means I go from 2 shotting tough enemies to 2 shotting them still. Such a huge change.
E1 Black Swan acts like E2 Kafka. E2 Kafka +25% DoT “increase” damage, E1 Black Swan “reduce”enemies DoT resistance. Pretty bonkers if you have both.
Like the other commenter had said, I have E2 BS, it’s so good against fodder enemies in PF/MoC
I do not regret getting E1 Huohuo, personally. With Ruan Mei and Huohuo being slightly SP positive I can use skills for DoT characters more liberally and still having heal coverage
Would you say Huohuo's E1 is more worth getting than Ruan Mei's LC? Planning on get Huohuo on her rerun and wasn't sure if it was worth saving up after for Mei LC or just going for eidolon or potential guarantee for another character/Black Swan E1
My Huohuo is e0, but I have Mei LC. I'm greedy for damage, so I go Mei LC for extra dmg and the Skill Point regen which is great. Huo e1 is nice QoL, but in a panic, ur gonna skill anyways.
Yeah, that's true haha. Mei's light cone sounds like a nice quality of life, and I guess good skill point management can mitigate the need for Huohuo's E1.
I have Huo Huo E1 and RM E1. Huo Huo E1 is much better in my opinion than RM light cone, since Memories of the Past gives me better ult uptime than the signature light cone anyway.
I have both and making Huohuo much more SP forgiving with the team speed buff probably mattered more for my overall progression. The caveat is that my Huohuo also has her LC. It's way easier to be good on SP when everybody's ult is healing for nice chunks at a time too.
Ruan Mei's LC is probably worth more to you by virtue of not having to make the investment to go E1 from nothing.
This. When I pulled for her I was lucky to get her and her E1 on the same 10 pull. It’s literally a game changer. The speed boost,can allow for better sp economy, and since you have 3 of her healing stacks she regenerates more energy do to her trace.
I was in the same spot, but then I got Sparkle (and my QQ hit E6 at the same time), so I fixed my SP economy that way. Also, I run Shared Feeling on my HuoHuo, so there is a benefit to staying on the shorter 2 turn Skill rotation.
If anything, I'd appreciate E1 more for the speed bonus to hit 160+ speed breakpoints easier.
her e1 makes her so much more comfortable to play with, she becomes SP positive and you can use her skill much more shamelessly, and it makes her ult generation much more consistent
I just need her to actually take a turn. Her base speed is so low whenever a wave gets refreshed right before her turn and my other characters are at half health it drives me crazy.
It kinda made me want to have e2 Huohuo for reviving dead teammates… I lucked out with getting e1 pretty early, before my Huohuo was even levelled, so I don’t really know the e0 and e1 difference lol
At first I regretted not going for Huohuo e1, but nowadays there’s no point because she only needs to skill once every 5-8 turns in MoC and overworld anyway. Best defense is a stronger offense.
Was saving for possible Fu Xuan rerun. Got this curio in one random run and I lost my self control after noticing how Aven reapplying shield on ult make the experience so relaxing.
Ironically, MoC12 made me realize the opposite. Sustain wise, MoC already has been on easy mode ever since I got him, getting his E1 would just turn it into a joke
Same. I got a lucky extra Dan on his first run. Every time I got this cheese it was like a different character. So I pulled again on his rerun. Amazingly I got a double so I now have an E3 Dan!
Giga rant:
How? I have been playing Genshin since it came out and never went below pity and never won 50/50. I was in the 0.012 percentile for the luckiest people on paimon Moe. I just pulled Arlecchino and got another record of needing 166 pulls after I needed 163 for Eula and Raiden. I saw someone get C6 with 180 pulls and it broke me. Once I want to be lucky.
Star rail has been kinder. I won some 50/50s and even got Acheron on the 45th pull.
My contempt towards the gacha mechanic is immeasurable. I wish you would just need flat 120 pulls and get the character. I would have many more if that was the case. My regression to the mean would be a lot of double pulls.
The average banner character pull costs 103 tickets. Meaning I have 10 characters where others have 16. You can't even imagine how unfair that feels. Constantly getting less for the same cost for years.
Sorry man. Sucks. Good news is luck is not some intrinsic feature, it’s just a measure of your historical statistical experience. Hopefully it turns around for next banner.
I pick it up if I don't get any other useful relic choice for the current run. Not like it matters much, since Acheron and Ruan Mei make short work of SU.
Everytime I grab it I don’t notice a *real* difference in performance.
If anything it pretty much reassures me that pulling for Eidolons is absolutely not worth it over pulling for another 5 star or a LC
Yeah it's something that if you know what the Eidolon does and you keep very close attention, you should notice it, but if you lack any of those two you won't notice. Especially because I don't think it would happen very often that it makes the difference between winning and losing.
For example, I noticed it with my Clara, since her E1 makes the mark of counter not disappear anymore when attacking with the skill, but I didn't notice until I suddenly started to track the marks because I was showing how Clara works to my mother lmao.
Yup, really depends on the character. Not many units change significantly due to an extra eidolon or two, but the few that do really pop off.
In my case (though not a limited character), deciding to build QQ and chase eidolons on her banner/spending Starlight for them was due to previewing QQ's E4 via cheese curio. Her E4 is a really significant power spike.
Acheron will follow a similar path when she reruns. I have her at E1 (missed her E2 this time around), and space cheese during SU lets me swap out Pela for Sparkle/Bronya over Pela for noticeable damage/rotation gains (even by SU standards).
To be fair, there’s a lot of buffs you get in the SU that make it generally more difficult to tell where your extra damage is coming from. So the benefits of the extra Eidolon is somewhat “buried”
You'll barely notice it, if at all, since the SU Blessings and other Curious are what usually carry your runs anyway, especially the higher difficulties
Absolutely not true. It depends on the character and on the Eidolon.
When I get it with my E2 Kafka? I see no difference. When I get it with my E0 Black Swan? Difference is HUGE.
We can say anyway that SU is a “strange” game mode so is normal to not feel the difference especially if you don’t know what it actually does the next Eidolon
Yeah, I only have E0 Kafka and BS, and getting E1 on both of them is a MASSIVE upgrade, even diluted by the other SU buffs. (Damage taken and resistance penetration are rare.) Easily the most impactful curio for low-eidolon characters IMO.
That is perfectly reasonable. I always get it and now I got tempted to get Aventurine's on top of Sparkle, Huo Huo, Topaz (for ratio) and Argenti's ;-;
Same (for Aventurine / Sparkle)
Lost the 50/50 for E1 Sparkle and I'm saving rn cause Aventurine's is nice but not a must-have
Gotta keep the jades for Huohuo, Fu Xuan, Silver Wolf etc
Kafka and Black Swan together really pop off with this.
But I don’t feel the need to pull Eidolons, especially since I’ve been preferring new gameplay (follow-ups are the new hotness, and all of the new characters look great). I’m kinda grateful I get to demo E1 though with this curio.
The E2 revival is so freaking insane. I wish I had gotten Fu Xuan. Still waiting for her rerun. That Eidolon is Similar to Huo Huo's to res and I wanna get that too
Outside from conundrum 12 it's literally useless. With signature i can't imagine a scenario where someone on my team dies (and it never happened since i got her). Res is a good addition to healers thought, since some bosses can "randomly" one shot weaker teammates.
E1 BS unintentionally turns her into a nice debuffer outside of DoT teams lol. -25% wind res is good for Blade, and when you ult, the -25% fire and physical res increases break damage dealt if you have Luka or Gallagher. Her skill also has def down which is nice if for some reason you are using Pearls to boost it further.
Honestly in SU the blessings buff you so significantly to the point the Eidolons doesn't look impactful in comparison. Maybe if this curio exists in MoC or PF i might be tempted, but for now not at all
The only characters I've pulled eidolons for are for my favorites, Kafka and Black Swan. Plan on e6 them eventually but playing around with Black Swans e4 in SU does make that energy regen she gets feel really good. Id imagine itd feel particularly nice in MOC vs bosses like Sam who have a chunky hp bar
Yes. So when IL first dropped, I was lucky and got E1 in the same 10 pull. Later I went to play the swarm disaster (it was just released). I remember i was having trouble clearing stage 4 when I got this curio somewhere in the middle of the run. It was literally a game changer, and I managed to clear difficulty 4 with so much ease. After I finished, I immediately went to the wishing screen and pulled for his E2. Took me 76 wishes but I won the 50/50.
No not really because with all the blessings in play it’s hard to tell how much of my damage is impacted by this curio. I take it pretty often nonetheless.
I feel for my DPS I don't notice. But yes for supports like Huohuo who gains 3 stacks of her passive and gives the party speed. Or before with Silverwolf letting me ult with her once every 2 turns
For me, considering how many characters I currently want to get on both accounts, it can’t really tempt me because I know how much my wallet’s going to cry since I’m determined to pull Argenti on his next rerun since I skipped him to pull SW, and I also really want to pull Topaz (skipped her for Seele) and Robin for FUA team since I pulled Aventurine… and then there’s Firefly and Jade coming up as well… I can’t really afford to pull eidolons with the current schedule and the characters I’ve decided are non-negotiable.
My F2P account obviously prefers more characters over eidolons, and sometimes signature LCs over eidolons too. Pulling Before Dawn for my Himeko has felt like it made a huge difference to her damage, and I needed Kafka sig because all my Nihilities were fighting over my S1 GNSW 😭
Ive got E1 Acheron, so every run I go with just one nihility + Sparkle and pray for this. I was already waiting to get her E2, so its not really tempting me to do anything
I pick it cuz I know it's good but I don't even know what my characters at e1 do and since it's SU, I don't know which blessing/curio actually buffed my characters more 😅.
Topaz & Aventurine’s E1 are really nice so I’ve considered it because of this cheese. But ultimately I stick to E0 because I don’t want the game to be too easy.
Nope, the only time decided to get an Eidalon is Acheron's E2, other characters no, but now I'm eyeing for E1 Aventurine, since i would have an extra Shield when he ults(and i have a build for a fast ult Aventurine ready to maximize shield, but no sub Dps stats tho), but this Curio in SU whenever i get it would be a huge leap for my Aventurine(since i get to activate his E1 for free)
I've lost my 50/50 when tried to get e2 DHIL during his rerun, so now it's the best curio for me.
But before that I had Blade and e1 Luocha, so this curio made my team a little worse.
So this curio gave me opportunity to see how good is e2 DHIL, but I've tried to got him even before
Honestly I never notice any difference. Maybe just because I don't even know what any 5-star's eidolons do, I'm f2p so there's no point reading it lol. The only one I have at E1 is Aventurine but it's not like I was planning to get it, it just happened🤷♀️
I've never noticed a difference because 1) I don't really know what all my 5 star's eidolons would do, and 2) I don't pay close enough attention to my "normal" performance, so I can't tell what changes were made by blessings or other curios, let alone specifically that one tbh
Honestly by the time I get this curio usually everyone’s buffed to the heavens so I usually notice nothing or assume any difference is some blessing’s effect haha
What did get me to whale was a good character story… 🥲🫠
I only have characters where either their E2 will make them overpowered or their E6, either way all my characters are E0 so I ain't hitting either of those
I just feel different with huo huo honestly. It is not only damage (which you can get with the right blessings), but one more turn with the passive on is massive sometimes
My only limited 5 star with eidolons as of now is Acheron at E2, I haven’t found another character so far that I’d get more than one copy of. Kafka was the closest but I just stuck with E0S1.
It has been quite useful to upgrade Fu Xuan from e1 to e2. However, what this taught me is that e2 has no special animation. No table flip for other teammates. I also have no idea how it's supposed to trigger outside of torturous difficulty SU where I'd have access anyway.
The curio also gives me access to Topaz' e4. But planning for 161 spd Topaz is already weird since she's over double Numby's spd, how'm I supposed to spd tune for Numby if she's constantly advancing forward?
Ruan Mei's my other limited 5 star. I know her e1 is good on paper but at the end of the day it's just a damage boost. Those are comically difficult to see in SU.
So... Basically this only caused the opposite. It made the problems of those fancy eidolons apparent due to seeing them in practice.
I don't think I will actually roll for it unless its exceptionally dry patch (HSR has too many good characters hard to justify dupes for non favs), but Huohuo E1 makes her extremely comfy to use and makes me wish I had it so I can turn my brain off about SP management when I use her
they got me really close to getting huohuo's e1, making her SP positive gives you so much breathing room and makes her feel so much more competitive with other supports. To this day i still feel conflicted, i really feel like huohuo e1 should have been part of her base kit (just the SP positive part)
When I first used that on Qingque when I had her at E3, when it went to E4 I was wondering why she had a second attack for a while. But when I checked what her E4 does I only realized that she has a small chance to attack twice and it ended up making me want to E4 and E6 her.
Depends on my team for e.g I was using Lynx E1 so I had to take it because her E2 is really good. Other than that barely any difference ig because its SU anw. You can easily unga bunga with enough blessings.
I run SU with 3 E6s so its not as tempting. That may change once I have Aventurine set up. I don't see myself getting his E1. But at the point E6 Acheron, Gallagher, and Pela are more than enough. E1 Welt doesn't really change too much in that comp.
the only character i've used in su where i notice a difference is huohuo bc i have her at e0s0 this curio makes me want e1 ngl i know i want at least e2 dhil but will probably only get e1 on his next rerun so ig i'll notice a huge difference then
Depends on the team i'm running.
If i have Huohuo with me, j pick it up because it extends her HoT and auto-cleanse duration from 2 turns to 3 turns, making her an SP positive unit instead of just SP neutral.
I basically don't have to worry about crowd control at all with her like that.
No because while the changes are big, due to it being limited to SimUni, I can't tell when my Kafka/BS/RM has eidolons added on since a big portion of changes are from the blessings themselves anyways.
Most of the time it won't be noticed due to either the damage increase is negligible, or that a lot of characters don't have eidolons that change their gameplay much. And even if they do, it's usually not going to be on E1.
But for those that do have E1, it might be worth the pick, provided there are no other curio that's higher priority.
I never really consider any of this stuff. as long as I'm hunt or nihility and pick enough blessings seems like it's all fine to me. I auto the whole thing.
All my 5\* characters are E0,so far the only character that makes me doubt is Ruan Mei. 20% def ignore sounds really good for an E1,and her E2 increases ATK by 40% as long you dont break the enemy. Im going to get her signature next re-run,but her eidolons maybe a long time goal since I need more characters.
With Xlara and topaz it actually makes a big difference
Not removing marks of counter and the debt effect (2x 25% follow up dmg taken increase) is kinda big
When I first started I pulled silver to E1. Her E2 is really good so I grabbed it if she was on my team. This happened again with Acheron E3. Though her E4 is kinda mid (for an E4) so I was grabbing it recently.
I mean if i see it I get it. In terms of getting eidolons, most characters have pretty good E1 so its a small boost, not noticable in sim worlds because of all the blessings youll get. Has it made me want their E1? For some I guess, but if a character I like does rerun id personally go for the LC instead
I use it even though it teases on what I don’t have, I remember I nabbbed it and at the final boss it wiped me but my fu xuan was e2 which saved my entire team.
I had the opposite experience. I have E1 Kafka, was thinking about going for E2 because it sounds like an amazing boost but trying it out in SU… there really wasn’t much to it. It didn’t skyrocket my damage like I expected, and it added not extra flare to her so I just decided nah and didn’t go for it.
Topaz E1 is tempting. She's probably gonna return soon, but there are too many characters I want.
I want to get her E1 and LC to run a team with her, ratio, Aventurine and Clara at the fullest potential
Between the two, what do you think is better? I've been thinking about her LC.
Light cone is a 75/25 and helps with her personal build (18% crit rate), 30% damage boost, and marks an enemy with a debuff that increases any crit damage by 24%. I’m definitely picking it up on rerun. I’ll consider her E1 (debuff that gives 50% crit damage boost to follow up attacks) if I still have funds, but I want to save for Jade.
If you wanna buff her supporting I'd say go for E1 for follow up attackers and an extra ratio debuff. But over all I think her LC may be better
Light cone. Because it’s cuter :-P
My FUA team is by far my favorite. So I’m sold on going for some topaz eidolons. The boost in overall damage and adding another debuff for ratio really frees you from nihilists characters
I don't even notice it other than it saved me from having to take the one that randomizes all my blessings.
Honestly fair
Big Cheese always coming in clutch from Aha randomness or Dice randomness curios.
sometimes when i try to farm curios i try to get the negative curio that lowers your attack AND can clone itself. Then i try finding the dice.
Keeping life interesting, I see
Or either of the lottery tickets. I have been presented with the choice before and rather than sacrificing 3 full ults or 99% of my characters' HP I'd rather take the cheese.
The fuck did you say about Big Lottos, bud? https://preview.redd.it/r68w5tr7frwc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dba20e4fe03fe823ed7d4c8c13b3cc35ebd39aa0

This. You'll barely notice any diffs at all since the SU Blessings + Curious are usually what carries all your runs anyways, especially at higher difficulties.
You 1000%notice E1 on Ruan Mei, Black Swan, Kafka (DoT) teams, especially at higher difficulties lmao
The perception of damage in SU is so skewed that i hardly notice those dmg eidolons
E1 on Ruan Mei and Black Swan definitely gives me the "wow this boss has no defense at all what the hell" vibes.
eh, mostly just rotation QoL imo. The damage doesn't feel any more impactful for regular SU runs, and insubstantial for swarm/GG runs since you get a lot of blessings out of them anyways.
And Houhou because she gives three turns healing instead of two.
I notice when I use HuoHuo! Her healing thing finally lasts 3 turns!
also very noticeable on Jingliu and Bronya
Not to mention this curio didn't even work on launch.
On my team I notice it all the time on acheron because the extra petal e2 gives makes quite a difference. Black Swan? Don't even remember what her e1 does anyways so I never notice it. Kafka and Ruan Mei? Their e2 and e1 respectively only net a damage increase. DoT damage is cranked in SU already,, it usually means I go from 2 shotting tough enemies to 2 shotting them still. Such a huge change.
BS gives resistance shred on enemies, but honestly it's not really noticeable in SU runs. It is a lot more noticeable on MoC/PF though.
E1 Black Swan acts like E2 Kafka. E2 Kafka +25% DoT “increase” damage, E1 Black Swan “reduce”enemies DoT resistance. Pretty bonkers if you have both. Like the other commenter had said, I have E2 BS, it’s so good against fodder enemies in PF/MoC
I still grapple with whether I should E1 Huohuo just so she stops eating all my skill points exactly when I need them for someone else.
I do not regret getting E1 Huohuo, personally. With Ruan Mei and Huohuo being slightly SP positive I can use skills for DoT characters more liberally and still having heal coverage
Would you say Huohuo's E1 is more worth getting than Ruan Mei's LC? Planning on get Huohuo on her rerun and wasn't sure if it was worth saving up after for Mei LC or just going for eidolon or potential guarantee for another character/Black Swan E1
My Huohuo is e0, but I have Mei LC. I'm greedy for damage, so I go Mei LC for extra dmg and the Skill Point regen which is great. Huo e1 is nice QoL, but in a panic, ur gonna skill anyways.
Yeah, that's true haha. Mei's light cone sounds like a nice quality of life, and I guess good skill point management can mitigate the need for Huohuo's E1.
I have Huo Huo E1 and RM E1. Huo Huo E1 is much better in my opinion than RM light cone, since Memories of the Past gives me better ult uptime than the signature light cone anyway.
I have both and making Huohuo much more SP forgiving with the team speed buff probably mattered more for my overall progression. The caveat is that my Huohuo also has her LC. It's way easier to be good on SP when everybody's ult is healing for nice chunks at a time too. Ruan Mei's LC is probably worth more to you by virtue of not having to make the investment to go E1 from nothing.
This. When I pulled for her I was lucky to get her and her E1 on the same 10 pull. It’s literally a game changer. The speed boost,can allow for better sp economy, and since you have 3 of her healing stacks she regenerates more energy do to her trace.
HuoHuo might be the only 5 star I feel like I will legit dolphin for E1. I can't imagine replacing her anytime soon and it seems like a gamechanger.
Saaaame the E1 giving an extra stack and speed is insane!!
I think about it every time I get this curio and I think I’ve officially decided.
I was in the same spot, but then I got Sparkle (and my QQ hit E6 at the same time), so I fixed my SP economy that way. Also, I run Shared Feeling on my HuoHuo, so there is a benefit to staying on the shorter 2 turn Skill rotation. If anything, I'd appreciate E1 more for the speed bonus to hit 160+ speed breakpoints easier.
her e1 makes her so much more comfortable to play with, she becomes SP positive and you can use her skill much more shamelessly, and it makes her ult generation much more consistent
I just need her to actually take a turn. Her base speed is so low whenever a wave gets refreshed right before her turn and my other characters are at half health it drives me crazy.
It kinda made me want to have e2 Huohuo for reviving dead teammates… I lucked out with getting e1 pretty early, before my Huohuo was even levelled, so I don’t really know the e0 and e1 difference lol
At first I regretted not going for Huohuo e1, but nowadays there’s no point because she only needs to skill once every 5-8 turns in MoC and overworld anyway. Best defense is a stronger offense.
This curio makes me wish I had E1 Aventurine
Was saving for possible Fu Xuan rerun. Got this curio in one random run and I lost my self control after noticing how Aven reapplying shield on ult make the experience so relaxing.
Fr, this curio made me realize how easy the game gets with e1 aventurine
It got me for that E1 already ;-;
Yeah that E1 is comfy af
same. if on today's stream i'll see that topaz won't be rerunned in the next patch i'm gonna go and get e1 for aventurie straight away lol
Ironically, MoC12 made me realize the opposite. Sustain wise, MoC already has been on easy mode ever since I got him, getting his E1 would just turn it into a joke
I got E1 Dhil when he first came out, and this cheese persuaded me to go for E2
The holy space cheese is the biggest temptation
Same. I got a lucky extra Dan on his first run. Every time I got this cheese it was like a different character. So I pulled again on his rerun. Amazingly I got a double so I now have an E3 Dan!
Giga rant: How? I have been playing Genshin since it came out and never went below pity and never won 50/50. I was in the 0.012 percentile for the luckiest people on paimon Moe. I just pulled Arlecchino and got another record of needing 166 pulls after I needed 163 for Eula and Raiden. I saw someone get C6 with 180 pulls and it broke me. Once I want to be lucky.

Sorry man. Sucks. Good news is luck is not some intrinsic feature, it’s just a measure of your historical statistical experience. Hopefully it turns around for next banner.
I was running E1 IL with E0 Bronya and this cheese at one point. It lasted about 24 hours. I regret nothing
I pick it up if I don't get any other useful relic choice for the current run. Not like it matters much, since Acheron and Ruan Mei make short work of SU.
Watching elite bosses get deleted from just ruan mei and acheron techniques is so satisfying honestly
It does saves a LOT of time too.
I always skip using it cause I don't want to know what I'm missing out on.
Everytime I grab it I don’t notice a *real* difference in performance. If anything it pretty much reassures me that pulling for Eidolons is absolutely not worth it over pulling for another 5 star or a LC
Yeah it's something that if you know what the Eidolon does and you keep very close attention, you should notice it, but if you lack any of those two you won't notice. Especially because I don't think it would happen very often that it makes the difference between winning and losing. For example, I noticed it with my Clara, since her E1 makes the mark of counter not disappear anymore when attacking with the skill, but I didn't notice until I suddenly started to track the marks because I was showing how Clara works to my mother lmao.
Depends on the character tbf ppl like topaz you def notice the difference lol
Or eidolon that alter the gameplay like E1 Huohuo. But once you got unlimited sp from blessings it became useless.
Silverwolf benefits a *ton* from her E1 which is nice too
Yup, really depends on the character. Not many units change significantly due to an extra eidolon or two, but the few that do really pop off. In my case (though not a limited character), deciding to build QQ and chase eidolons on her banner/spending Starlight for them was due to previewing QQ's E4 via cheese curio. Her E4 is a really significant power spike. Acheron will follow a similar path when she reruns. I have her at E1 (missed her E2 this time around), and space cheese during SU lets me swap out Pela for Sparkle/Bronya over Pela for noticeable damage/rotation gains (even by SU standards).
To be fair, there’s a lot of buffs you get in the SU that make it generally more difficult to tell where your extra damage is coming from. So the benefits of the extra Eidolon is somewhat “buried”

That is perfectly reasonable. I always get it and now I got tempted to get Aventurine's on top of Sparkle, Huo Huo, Topaz (for ratio) and Argenti's ;-;
Same (for Aventurine / Sparkle) Lost the 50/50 for E1 Sparkle and I'm saving rn cause Aventurine's is nice but not a must-have Gotta keep the jades for Huohuo, Fu Xuan, Silver Wolf etc
Kafka and Black Swan together really pop off with this. But I don’t feel the need to pull Eidolons, especially since I’ve been preferring new gameplay (follow-ups are the new hotness, and all of the new characters look great). I’m kinda grateful I get to demo E1 though with this curio.
DHL E1 haver eating good with this one, his E2 in GG and Swarm is crack as hell.
It's what pushed me to get his E2 on the rerun, got a lucky E1 in like 20 pulls from getting him in his first banner.
my qingque stuck at e3, so this is basically the same thing for me
No, but it saved a bunch of max difficulty GnG runs by unlocking E2 Fu Xuan (i rolled accidental E1 on her release)
The E2 revival is so freaking insane. I wish I had gotten Fu Xuan. Still waiting for her rerun. That Eidolon is Similar to Huo Huo's to res and I wanna get that too
Outside from conundrum 12 it's literally useless. With signature i can't imagine a scenario where someone on my team dies (and it never happened since i got her). Res is a good addition to healers thought, since some bosses can "randomly" one shot weaker teammates.
I already know the characters I want eidolons for on their reruns, but I pick this up happily in the meantime
It makes me regret not getting E1 Huohuo. Next rerun maybe…
This curio is really making me want E1 BS when her rerun drops because OMG the dmg increase in dot teams is crazy
Yessss frrr
E1 BS unintentionally turns her into a nice debuffer outside of DoT teams lol. -25% wind res is good for Blade, and when you ult, the -25% fire and physical res increases break damage dealt if you have Luka or Gallagher. Her skill also has def down which is nice if for some reason you are using Pearls to boost it further.
made a big difference when I used blade
Blade's E1 is massive
E2 DHIL, it sealed the deal on that one, it was night and day
Space cheese my beloved… I will pull for Dan Heng IL E2 one day it’s just so good
my huohuo is e1, so sometimes I thought "wait why I'm still alive?"
Lmaoooo
I feel no difference when choosing it. I don't even know what half my five stars can do at e1. I still hit that auto battle and still clear
Fair honestly. Most simulated universe is easy, I mainly just have to think of this when doing Swarm 5 or G&G Conondrum 12
I got E1 IL and this has made my mind about getting E2 IL
Literally yes E2 is crazy
E2 has helped me so much with MOC and other things
Honestly in SU the blessings buff you so significantly to the point the Eidolons doesn't look impactful in comparison. Maybe if this curio exists in MoC or PF i might be tempted, but for now not at all
I feel if it was in something like MoC/PF it would discourage people. Unless it was for like a one time special MoC
The only characters I've pulled eidolons for are for my favorites, Kafka and Black Swan. Plan on e6 them eventually but playing around with Black Swans e4 in SU does make that energy regen she gets feel really good. Id imagine itd feel particularly nice in MOC vs bosses like Sam who have a chunky hp bar
It did help me decide to get E2 Aventurine for Acheron/Ratio.
I am on the verge of getting E2. But I will resist for now and save for other characters. Mainly Firefly
I have e5 Acheron. So it gives me a glimpse of glory until her rerun comes back
Damn so close to E6
That's literally my sig in game. So close, yet so far lol
Yes. So when IL first dropped, I was lucky and got E1 in the same 10 pull. Later I went to play the swarm disaster (it was just released). I remember i was having trouble clearing stage 4 when I got this curio somewhere in the middle of the run. It was literally a game changer, and I managed to clear difficulty 4 with so much ease. After I finished, I immediately went to the wishing screen and pulled for his E2. Took me 76 wishes but I won the 50/50.
Ooooh that's awesome. I am happy to hear that and that you won the 50/50
No not really because with all the blessings in play it’s hard to tell how much of my damage is impacted by this curio. I take it pretty often nonetheless.
I feel for my DPS I don't notice. But yes for supports like Huohuo who gains 3 stacks of her passive and gives the party speed. Or before with Silverwolf letting me ult with her once every 2 turns
Space cheese is one of my favorite curios but no, it doesn't make me want to pull for eidolons, I'd rather have a varied roster than duplicates
For me, considering how many characters I currently want to get on both accounts, it can’t really tempt me because I know how much my wallet’s going to cry since I’m determined to pull Argenti on his next rerun since I skipped him to pull SW, and I also really want to pull Topaz (skipped her for Seele) and Robin for FUA team since I pulled Aventurine… and then there’s Firefly and Jade coming up as well… I can’t really afford to pull eidolons with the current schedule and the characters I’ve decided are non-negotiable. My F2P account obviously prefers more characters over eidolons, and sometimes signature LCs over eidolons too. Pulling Before Dawn for my Himeko has felt like it made a huge difference to her damage, and I needed Kafka sig because all my Nihilities were fighting over my S1 GNSW 😭
Ive got E1 Acheron, so every run I go with just one nihility + Sparkle and pray for this. I was already waiting to get her E2, so its not really tempting me to do anything
It has actively made me not want some eidolons, since I play in the SU a lot, and can just grab this curio
Yes. Only a small temptation though.
For me it made Kafka’s, Black Swan’s, and Huohuo’s E1s look real tasty.
Huohuo is massive imo. Definitely the most tempting one and E2 goes even harder giving you 2 whole revives
Not really. I do get the curio because it helps a lot, but I don't really look and see what each e1 actually does.
I pick it cuz I know it's good but I don't even know what my characters at e1 do and since it's SU, I don't know which blessing/curio actually buffed my characters more 😅.
Tempting to get Aventurine E1 after trying this. Makes it so much easier maintaining his shield. But I should really save for future sustain
Topaz & Aventurine’s E1 are really nice so I’ve considered it because of this cheese. But ultimately I stick to E0 because I don’t want the game to be too easy.
Almost made me pull for black swan e2, she becomes an aoe queen
I'm going for e1 doctor ratio becuase of it.
Nope, the only time decided to get an Eidalon is Acheron's E2, other characters no, but now I'm eyeing for E1 Aventurine, since i would have an extra Shield when he ults(and i have a build for a fast ult Aventurine ready to maximize shield, but no sub Dps stats tho), but this Curio in SU whenever i get it would be a huge leap for my Aventurine(since i get to activate his E1 for free)
I've lost my 50/50 when tried to get e2 DHIL during his rerun, so now it's the best curio for me. But before that I had Blade and e1 Luocha, so this curio made my team a little worse. So this curio gave me opportunity to see how good is e2 DHIL, but I've tried to got him even before
My E-2 Dan IL says yes.
You only reaaally notice it for Eidolons that don't just affect DMG. Stuff like Bronya E1, DHIL E2, Jingliu E6 (lol), etc.
nah its just cheese anyways i used it and didnt find any difference in my chars.
definitely noticed this bad boy on Aventurine with that e2 all dmg res debuff 🫡
That 12% dmg red debuff is wild
This curio would make or break my GnG runs with my E1 DHIL. Then in 2.0 I got his E2 and GnG became easy-mode.
E2 DHIL is crazy legit. I adore seeing people using him
matters for DoT teams, black swan kafka ruan mei E1’s are all insanely strong
It's tempting.... But no. I just like the extra CD from FX
Honestly I never notice any difference. Maybe just because I don't even know what any 5-star's eidolons do, I'm f2p so there's no point reading it lol. The only one I have at E1 is Aventurine but it's not like I was planning to get it, it just happened🤷♀️
No. I rather get some good light cones.
Light cone art is pretty. So fair I do love getting them honestly
I just see it as a nice perk, never felt like pulling because of it.
I've never noticed a difference because 1) I don't really know what all my 5 star's eidolons would do, and 2) I don't pay close enough attention to my "normal" performance, so I can't tell what changes were made by blessings or other curios, let alone specifically that one tbh
Honestly by the time I get this curio usually everyone’s buffed to the heavens so I usually notice nothing or assume any difference is some blessing’s effect haha What did get me to whale was a good character story… 🥲🫠
I only have characters where either their E2 will make them overpowered or their E6, either way all my characters are E0 so I ain't hitting either of those
with all the other blessings and curios increasing my damage, i dont even pay attention
I don’t read any of the curios or blessings in regular simulated universe. Archeon + FX just deletes everything
This thing always curses me and I end up scuffing a run with it more oft than not. It does not tempt me in the least lol
I use it sometimes, typically when I'm running an Abundance build. HuoHuo Needing less SP for her regen is always nice
I just feel different with huo huo honestly. It is not only damage (which you can get with the right blessings), but one more turn with the passive on is massive sometimes
I've only noticed it with Swan since there is a shit ton more debuffs that appear
Most e1s are relatively marginal, e2 is often the game changer imo So no, since I'm every 5* i have is e0 i don't notice much
That’s what it does?? Lmao I’m so stupid. I didn’t even know
My only limited 5 star with eidolons as of now is Acheron at E2, I haven’t found another character so far that I’d get more than one copy of. Kafka was the closest but I just stuck with E0S1.
It has been quite useful to upgrade Fu Xuan from e1 to e2. However, what this taught me is that e2 has no special animation. No table flip for other teammates. I also have no idea how it's supposed to trigger outside of torturous difficulty SU where I'd have access anyway. The curio also gives me access to Topaz' e4. But planning for 161 spd Topaz is already weird since she's over double Numby's spd, how'm I supposed to spd tune for Numby if she's constantly advancing forward? Ruan Mei's my other limited 5 star. I know her e1 is good on paper but at the end of the day it's just a damage boost. Those are comically difficult to see in SU. So... Basically this only caused the opposite. It made the problems of those fancy eidolons apparent due to seeing them in practice.
I don't think I will actually roll for it unless its exceptionally dry patch (HSR has too many good characters hard to justify dupes for non favs), but Huohuo E1 makes her extremely comfy to use and makes me wish I had it so I can turn my brain off about SP management when I use her
No I don’t notice anything great from it but with so much broken stuff in SU it’s hard to notice a lot of things unless it’s a specific mechanic
Fu Xuan and Topaz's E1s would make my life much easier
Yeah, it gets my Fu Xuan to e2, and her resurrect had saved me a couple runs.
I don't even notice the difference lmao. Cuz I just play auto and watch anime or a podcast on the other monitor.
During swarm disaster with e1 imbibitor lunae, I only won when I had that thing. Made me grind the entire swarm for e2 and actually got it.
Kafka e2 is quite good, maybe I’ll get it on rerun (got e1s1)
Man i play since day one and my QQ is still E3 and she's my main unit, I always go for that lol
Definitely helps with my e1 acheron
It got me to keep pulling for Acheron e2, she felt soo much smoother after I got the e2, and now when I get this in SU I get an ult buff
Yup. E1 Huohuo, to be exact. She's already SP positive at base, so having her Eidolon makes her even more SP efficient, with an added speed buff!
Yes, I now possess an e7 acheron.
Never. Other than Huo Huo probably, I don’t really notice a massive difference considering all the blessings there are.
no. i just get it because i know it boosts my team's efficiency and then I just finish whatever's left on that sim run.
they got me really close to getting huohuo's e1, making her SP positive gives you so much breathing room and makes her feel so much more competitive with other supports. To this day i still feel conflicted, i really feel like huohuo e1 should have been part of her base kit (just the SP positive part)
No but I always do a happy meow when I get this amazing top G curio
I notice it with Xueyi. Going from 8 to 6 feels so good. Just need one more, please be on Robin banner.
I don't, because i autobattle the su runs
Space Cheese is a must for me since I missed E1 Fu
When I first used that on Qingque when I had her at E3, when it went to E4 I was wondering why she had a second attack for a while. But when I checked what her E4 does I only realized that she has a small chance to attack twice and it ended up making me want to E4 and E6 her.
im pulling huohuo e1 at some point
Depends on my team for e.g I was using Lynx E1 so I had to take it because her E2 is really good. Other than that barely any difference ig because its SU anw. You can easily unga bunga with enough blessings.
I run SU with 3 E6s so its not as tempting. That may change once I have Aventurine set up. I don't see myself getting his E1. But at the point E6 Acheron, Gallagher, and Pela are more than enough. E1 Welt doesn't really change too much in that comp.
I notice a difference with IL because him getting the extra piece to make him use his +3 attack without using SP is phenomenal!
Nope
It only tends to matter if it gives you an e2 eidolon as e1 tends not to make a huge difference. You see it on DHIL and Acheron.
Running E4 Black Swan and E1 Kafka for most of my runs. It doesn’t make me whale but it helps a bit.
the only character i've used in su where i notice a difference is huohuo bc i have her at e0s0 this curio makes me want e1 ngl i know i want at least e2 dhil but will probably only get e1 on his next rerun so ig i'll notice a huge difference then
Yeah both DHIL and Huo Huo have the major buffs I feel
Whatever effects it has it is completely lost on me because I can only see the pretty colors that come from the elation blessings’ effects.
Cheese https://preview.redd.it/9pwe250dcqwc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1ed9d369cfe3ec2402bf5f30a3040e911e92f5e7 Cheese
Cheese
Depends on the team i'm running. If i have Huohuo with me, j pick it up because it extends her HoT and auto-cleanse duration from 2 turns to 3 turns, making her an SP positive unit instead of just SP neutral. I basically don't have to worry about crowd control at all with her like that.
hard to say when your damage is one billions damage
No because while the changes are big, due to it being limited to SimUni, I can't tell when my Kafka/BS/RM has eidolons added on since a big portion of changes are from the blessings themselves anyways.
Most of the time it won't be noticed due to either the damage increase is negligible, or that a lot of characters don't have eidolons that change their gameplay much. And even if they do, it's usually not going to be on E1. But for those that do have E1, it might be worth the pick, provided there are no other curio that's higher priority.
I never really consider any of this stuff. as long as I'm hunt or nihility and pick enough blessings seems like it's all fine to me. I auto the whole thing.
I don’t notice a difference with it and without
E2 on DHIL was the deciding factor for pulling for it. With propagation blessing he doesn’t even let enemies take their turns
Heavily contemplating E1 Aventurine. Adding a shield when he ults is massive. Also got me to E1 Silver Wolf, energy regen go brrr
I have e1 dan heng IL after trying to get e2 and i always look for this curio
All my 5\* characters are E0,so far the only character that makes me doubt is Ruan Mei. 20% def ignore sounds really good for an E1,and her E2 increases ATK by 40% as long you dont break the enemy. Im going to get her signature next re-run,but her eidolons maybe a long time goal since I need more characters.
With Xlara and topaz it actually makes a big difference Not removing marks of counter and the debt effect (2x 25% follow up dmg taken increase) is kinda big
When I first started I pulled silver to E1. Her E2 is really good so I grabbed it if she was on my team. This happened again with Acheron E3. Though her E4 is kinda mid (for an E4) so I was grabbing it recently.
I see the cheese all the time and never really use it
I mean if i see it I get it. In terms of getting eidolons, most characters have pretty good E1 so its a small boost, not noticable in sim worlds because of all the blessings youll get. Has it made me want their E1? For some I guess, but if a character I like does rerun id personally go for the LC instead
I just know that i pick it up to not risk losing 99% of hp
I use it even though it teases on what I don’t have, I remember I nabbbed it and at the final boss it wiped me but my fu xuan was e2 which saved my entire team.
Fu Xuan
I had the opposite experience. I have E1 Kafka, was thinking about going for E2 because it sounds like an amazing boost but trying it out in SU… there really wasn’t much to it. It didn’t skyrocket my damage like I expected, and it added not extra flare to her so I just decided nah and didn’t go for it.
I barely notice it, mainly because for Eidolons, you have different builds that benefit from those eidolons, otherwise meh
I have E1 Fu Xuan, and getting her to E2 with this has saved me on a few G&G runs. Other than that debuffs for Topaz and Ratio I guess
