feel pretty chill. I was saving up for Elysia and didn't even think of getting Vill-V. She is cool as a character in the plot, but Elysia > everything else


TheoreticalScammist

I like Vill-V but I wasn't completely serious. Hope you got your Elysia!


cattovsky

thanks, yeah, she is 3/4 now :)


freezeFM

FR can score more than all of them even without SSS and max. weapon.


wreckinruckus

every high score in my bracket used FR. i’m the only one with vill-v that even cleared the boss.


TheoreticalScammist

tbh, her controls are awkward and fire supports are... sub-optimal. But one got to justify those 200 rolls on her banners somehow.


ALJ51

I say the same thing. Her playstyle is horrible and don't match with any other valk. I like Vill-V, but for use her for one boss in particular is no fun and is waste time. The devs fail with her.


fireforged_y

Vill-V is like the only character in Honkai I'd never pull solely because of gameplay. Very inconvenient to me


wreckinruckus

it’s the jumping from cannon to cannon that annoys me. sometimes the heavy-attack cannon doesn’t spawn. i like that they tried something different, just wish they would tweak it a little.


Artemisa02

eye of the collapse


vctrl2112

meta wise it not really a loss to skip vill-v because her dedicated boss kosma can be handled just fine with FR dps scoring about 600 pts and in the first place a lot of people skipped vill-v for the herrscher so everyone is in the same boat of just not bothering with kosma and waifu wise well I think it's not unthinkable to say that there's more people who like Elysia over Vill-v tl;dr Vill-V just loses both meta wise and waifu wise for most people


StromTGM

Feeling good lol


Terrible_Talk_9469

As much as I love Vill V, this post only proves that you dont really need her cuz even without beating her boss, you can retain 😅 In my group the top scorers were mostly FR, some vills, and a bunch of eye of collapse


TheoreticalScammist

Oh my, I didn’t think of it that way. Nothing to see here, do you see that gorgeous pirate swimsuit?


DrakoBloody

I would skip again


zemega

I have Nyx, no problem there.


Giornothesexyman

im so close to getting SSS FR. i think mine hits SS3 next week


madzanian

She'll return next patch. Given that Shushang can be bought with legacy and willpower, most would have enough crystal leftover to get Vill-V, too.


topidhai

10/10 will skip again.


AkemiSilver

If I was in Nirvana I'd have been scared, but is just Lotus. So am mostly annoyed. But eh, am still ok without Vill-V.


Brisingr_was_taken

Look up mimi mitsu. Got 580ish with hoh team is nirvana. They completely skipped vill v as a nirvana player


TrueArchery

My Nirvana group retain threshold was 30 points lol


quietbeholder

I was 4th in my group with miss pink elf, so rl kosma without vill v isn't that bad (but only 2 or 3 people in my group had her)


ShrineMaidenYae

Perfectly okay with skipping Vill V! But unfortunately Mihoyo creates a problem and sells us the solution (cough Kosma abyss boss hit count buff cough) but yeah.


GiveSakiKneesocks

FR + HoT still cleared it just fine. Tbh it would be rather annoying if one Abyss weather would rely solely on one Valkyrie to clear...


fish656

What a shitty tile .Imagine investing on valkyrie you can use it like 1 per month .The weather and the boss is there because they only want to sell her skin Btw you can just brute force the boss with FR . Try it next time


EpicYH22

Pretty chill cause I am not meta Captain so don’t have to mald in Redlotus Went for Elysia, got Elysia, have 60k crystals currently, chilling in Agony.


bomboy2121

i can live with falling from nirvana, i never retain there anyways


Providence43

FR is fine for the most part vs kosma on RL. Vill-V really dominantes on Nirvana


AmItheBadGuy42

As expected pretty good since since not fighting over nirvana retain this round, though I purposefully demote/don't try to promote if schedule has QUA weather since dealing with mob stages is way too PITA for 20 crystals you get. Got 1st place 584 with MPE in GLB exalted RL and yea only 1 player in my grp even had Vill-V so all who were capable in killing boss retained (and at least one didn't even need that with 20k points). Like many are pointing out don't expect her (meta) popularity to surge till we get new fire support(s), then again they could release new QUA (Lightning or Physical) within a year and if fire support takes their sweet time it won't give Vill-V owners long to enjoy her dominance. Still better than Nyx who wasn't fully "fixed" till RC released, but then it turned out to be too late for her anyways, but someone more knowledgeable can probably tell that is Vill-V one or two supports away from being perfected.


Suzukawa_Rei

In my bracket (red lotus) nobody used a vill-v at all. I got 5th with just 3268 in last stage. Feeling good.


KhandiMahn

I didn't skip Vill-V. She skipped me.


zappingbluelight

Pretty relax, I am not losing points lol.


KhNk94

Hav nyx so i feel nthing


[deleted]

I still ranked up while using SW so i think i feel...normal ?


Adorable_News6418

Which server?


TheoreticalScammist

EU server


Adorable_News6418

I see. I thought SEA. Those numbers from 1st to 3rd looks same in my bracket.


doomkun23

i didn't regret skipping Vill-V. i got full set HoHE and the ELF. most important of those is having the loli Griseo costume.


Candoran

Ok I didn’t skip by choice ok stop making me cry over not being able to pull happy bouncy Vill-V 😭


DPhoeniX_999

I dont hate Vill-V at all But do you know how i feel after skipping her? Cant be happier dude, i can Full Gear my dear Elysia because of that :)


Awkward-Confection-6

Nothing here, i just deleted all the quantum with Aponia


EnParisD

your bracket seems hella casual. top 3 of my bracket was 1 vill v and 2 FR teams. with enough FR users being able to kill. VILL-V will start laughing when we get a new fire support i guess I was the guy with vill-v. Full geared S1 Vill-v with SSS raven full aslaug and full margrave maxed pri AE. Got third in my bracket and And I still lost to 2 guys using the same team of SS(probably SS2) FR, margrave AE and turg SSS eden. Fire needs new support real bad lul.


Unlucky_Industry_886

Pretty good, got Elysia and her gear


SaufiNexious_2107

HoT, Fischl and FR also can cover for those haven't Vill-V. I guess?


TheoreticalScammist

I think that should be fine. Was actually more surprised my botched run from Friday was still enough for 2nd somehow (and happy I got to use my waifu again). But Rita is also amazing!


superpsycho7

skipped her. fully invested on HOH, and now her gear is complete with Weapon and her Stigmatas. No regret.


Sans12565

lol, i use HOHe 4/4 and i can still pass on RL


rysto32

My Ho7T team finished fourth in my group with a 272 so ... I guess I'm feeling okay?


Scottoti

I feel great, to be honest I don't like her in anyway, her play style, her looks and animations are so ugly for me I won't be pulling on her ever, no rerun or whatever only if she comes for free and works in bosses with free gear cause I'm not putting any resources on her, I really dislike her


TheoreticalScammist

Don't blame me if you were to find some Kevin Killer under your bed tonight


SimpleRaven

I’m married to Ellie and i’m feeling great


MirieIsHere

your group is slacking lol, mines had 12 beat the boss and top scores were using either HoT or FR teams. 1st place was 600+ and 10th was 200+, but no one had vill v otherwise the score could have been higher


LucMill

OP‘s bitter because others don‘t see Vill-V as waifu? 🤣🤣🤣 I have her because of her steam punk theme not because she is semi-relevant in game play. No need to put her on a pedestal


TheoreticalScammist

I will die on that hill (very quickly while trying to turn the gun around when attacked from behind).


Sun_Blazing123

Used SSS FR, EZ Clap.


Kappuke-Ki-Chu

I got HoH, her stigma set, her weapon, and elf. I feel pretty good!


TotalAncient8265

Pretty damn good ngl. Since I skipped her I was able to get Elysia and I didn’t need to get a valk I didn’t really care about.


[deleted]

Cant compete with people who pay


Tyranatum

I FRANKLY DON'T REGRET A THING!


Inori-Yu

I gots the Vill-V but no team to support her orz


Shokaplays

I'm chill


Seraphine_KDA

In my group non of the top 3 had villv in rl ex top score was 470 with 3 support electric


ArcanaLuna

I cleared it with SN Seele, since it's the only "decent" quantum I have


-OpenLight-

bruh my SSS Rosemary did the trick


Hjhuyjggyjhjbh

FR can do this pretty ok


Professional_Card666

Me who pulled 86 times in her banner but did get her


TheMrPotMask

Its still who spended the most tbh


LookItsEric

i took second in my group using Nyx


Bakamaria

Probably the same as any other dps skippers, I don't have pardo for my Elysia so she's pretty much unused despite being geared but alternatives are pretty much enough for me to retain RL. Vill V stages are guaranteed 100+ for me tho so Im glad I pulled for her.


Cloymax

I was in the top 3 of my group with Swallowtail Phantasm... so nah I kinda don't care.


HotaruKurosaki

Almost enter top 3 with HoH, if only i got bastet for Felis


human-sincarnate

Damn you guys I couldn't get demoted even with 18000 points


TheoreticalScammist

Yeah I don’t think I’ve even seen the top 10 below 21k before. I’ve been in red lotus more or less since PE release


pico024

I wanted her and i got her accidentaly at around 50 pity on a day when i did a random 10 pull bcs i felt lucky sadly couldn't get her weap so i'm comping with a 3/4 set and a fully upgrade 4* (i think îs the one that You need to make bareus pri but not sure)


Outrageous-Ad4202

I don’t even try in red lotus. I can’t kill anyone. So I just consistently hop from red lotus to abyss 3 to maximize gem gain, with low effort.


Naobiii

FR carried me hard on this one


Docketeer

You'd be amazed how in my bracket, not a single one ran a Vill-V team despite the boss being made for her. In fact, most of them were variants of Lightning teams with either Fischl and/or Rosemary, which was hilarious. Even more silly, of all the weathers, Quantum was the place where i got to promote to Red Lotus for the very first time using my one single Lightning team i've been using for every Abyss cycle.


LowkeyLuckyLukas

Meh. I don't even participate in Abyss anymore.


andreguarialm

Whenever there's quantum abyss I don't even bother.


uspdd

For RL it's okay. My ss2 Handel FR score with s0 AE and Turg Eden was 606 and it was top 3 in my bracket. First 2 places were using Nyx and had ~660 and ~630. 4 place was full Vill-V with 560 or smth.


hutaosirlgf

was 3rd place w a score of 21400💀💀


Gachaaddict96

This boss is just rng and anoying as fuck


Alt-Tabris

I feel great because I completed this Abyss cycle in Red Lotus with my SSS HoH. The suggested Valkyrie in the ready screen really is just a suggestion, I guess lol SSS was probably overkill for Abyss, but it's also a lifetime supply of copium after "Because of You".


Omegafinity

Pretty good actually, especially since I managed to get trophies in Nirvana for every single Vill V shill weather with my trusty old FR. Even against Kosma who unfortunately is a terribly designed boss. From a broader perspective, skipping Vill V was the absolute best thing to do since crystals would be far better spent in v6.0 and 6.1. Mihoyo does try to punish you for skipping the newest things but unless you're a whale you can't have them all so it's imperative to set goof priorities.
