finally managed to pull Herta. She's surprisingly easy to build.
![]() she currently has 72.6 Crit Rate, 124.5 Crit DMG, and 135 SPD. Still plenty room for improvement... her current head relic has no crit damage, and the sphere I'm using is far from optimal, it is ATK and have no crit rate or crit damage. I plan to make improvements until at least 150 crit dmg is reached - will go higher if I get lucky on sub stat rolls. also not yet have her light cone.. things would certainaly better if I could have it. planning to test her in Apoc Shadow when it refresh in a few days. Maybe some days after, since her talents are still only level 3, I need to farm for a few more days to max them. ![]()

From what I heard E1 is better than LC. Anyway I can testify, she does great job in AS even on E0S0

yeah, finished testing as well. E0 S0 Madam Herta can handle even level 4 of the current AS.
due to limited resources, I did plan on getting her E1 first. So that even if I fail, the pulls done would help build up for the next character. Currently 30 or 40 pulls in, and no 5 star triggered. Will keep going until banner end.

Cosmic lucky prize (Lottery event to win 500,000 stellar jades) starts today, make sure you participate everyday.
This is an in-game event, not web event. You need to login to draw everyday. Not just one time.

after some more relic rolls. Managed to increase Madam Herta's Crit DMG to 140. While maintaining her Crit Rate above 70 and SPD at above 134 (SPD breakpoint).
could potentially get 150 Crit DMG, but that would require me to have an ICE Sphere with both Crit Rate and Crit DMG sub stats both at 9 or above. Can actually do that, but using Self Modeling Resin, Wishful Resin, and possible reroll with a Variable Dice once or twice just to get 10 more Crit DMG does not feel right (lol). Would just be content with 140 Crit DMG that I have right now... temporary stopping point until I get her light cone on re-run, or I manage to get an ICE Sphere from Sleepy with the right sub stats.

Didn't get even one 600 jades from the lottery. That's how it is when you gamble. All or nothing.
Managed to get Aglaea in 30 pulls. This is where my luck went ![]() EDIT: https://hoyo.link/xh8s3Tlcg Seems they're addressing issues in the 3.0 main story pacing. It was that bad of a reception and I agree. I love Greek mythology and the mythology of Amphoreus but it was definitely too much of a lore dump with a lot of tell and less show, like that history lesson in the fountain. And also too much puzzles that padded out the pacing. Last edited by belatkuro; 2025-02-05 at 00:37. |

was clearing up some more backlogs today.
I thank Rappa for clearing Gold and Gears V. was not expecting she is strong enough to do this. Spoiler:
got jades and a resin as reward. ^^ ____________________ oh, and new banner. Easy skip. I don't like Aglaea's char design. just personal preference ok, no offense to those who like her. this banner will be a rest banner... saving up jades for some re-runs that I'm waiting for.

The other thing about that news post that has people curious/excited is the hint at the end that they are planning to buff some older characters, which isn't common for Hoyoverse games (but likely makes more sense in a turn-based game like this). People are speculating there was a hint at what might be one of the likely planned adjustments to a past/early character in the 3.0 story, so I guess we'll see. I do think they went a bit too overboard with the power creep, so unless they do something to address it, it will likely impact their long-term sales (e.g., why invest in e1/e2/etc. if they're just going to be useless in a year). Having an "evolution" mechanic for older characters might be a half-decent compromise, and it'd make reruns (and just focusing on your favorites) a bit more palatable.

the question is... what kind of buff will the older characters receive? Is it a direct buff.. increased damage multipliers for example? Or are they gonna release new characters that specifically buff older ones? Direct buffing might be dangerous, they might get sued by certain players.
speaking of power creep. I'm glad to have only got E0 S0 Jingliu. There is a massive gap in power between E0 S0 Jingliu and E0 S0 Madam Herta. I made this comparison, since both are limited banner ice dps that can hit multiple enemies. Give them both decent relics and decent stats... Herta destroys Swarm King in Apoc Shadow lvl 4, while Jingliu is far too slow...

To somehow sue and sustain an argument like "I paid for Character X because Character Y was weak, but then you made Character Y strong so I didn't need to buy Character X" would never really work. The conclusions people arrive at based on relative performance at the time are not indicative of how future content will play out anyway. (It'd be no different than someone trying to sue because their character got power crept.) The example buff that people are speculating about... Spoiler for Patch 3.0 Trailblaze Quest:

ok, that's fair enough. Anyway, I see this as a win win for us players. If they succeed in implementing buffs, near obsolete units will be useful again. On the tiny chance they get sued and forced to rollback, hopefully there would be 1600 jade compensate.
![]() _________ on Jingliu. Not sure, but from my blurred memory.. it seems like she ran wild for at least six patches. And her decline started when the Aventurine boss was introduced as a counter to her - possibly, so that Acheron's banner would sell better. _______ about the current banners. Really surprised they actually did a Silver Wolf re-run... maybe the people at Hoyo are checking pull stats if people are still pulling for her? ______ and just a few more thoughts on the current state of the game . I have a good friend from Germany who plays Star Rail on two servers. He's not on this forum though. But we talk casually about Star Rail often on discord... he was waiting a long time for Boothill's banner. Then yesterday, I asked him if he's gonna pull since Boothill is here again.. he said, not pulling because it's "dangerous" to pull single target dps right now. Well, I sort of agree on that... current meta feels totally slanted towards aoe... my Feixiao is barely holding on in clearing one side of Apoc, while Rappa or Madam Herta clears the other side easily.
