I run my Xueyi on "her sig", Under the Blue Sky, which I find works wonderfully. Jingliu has hers, but yeah Clara and FF will have to share Aeon for now most likely. Eidolons are looking too juicy to resist trying over the LC. If only they put Indellible Promise on the banner...

New to HSR, join after seeing the Firefly memes and how cool SAM was. Found out they are one and the same. Haven’t pulled once, been saving everything for Firefly(mostly SAM tbh) wish me luck. (Edit: I got Firefly! Thanks for all the luck everyone, may your pulls be lucky as well.)
Other way to think about it is how strong she is right now with Super Break only now becoming a thing and her team being the only current good units for it. Once the supports that are even more break oriented than Ruan mei star coming out she's gonna be even better but anyways thank you so much for the guide we are ready for Firefly gaming now!
Bro RM is already so orientated for FF. You're going to wait for years to get a more specific character. And if they release one that soon its not very healthy for the game imo.
@@dmitriducklas bro are you high, the reason why it would be better to rerun ruan mei AFTER firefly is for players to have time to accumulate more jades from SU/MoC/Events/etc. Nobody would be complaining LMAO
@@caseydanchou nah it would be a bit worse cuz you should be rolling for ruan mei first then firefly since if you get firefly first you'll end up a pretty bad unit that you cant use until you get ruan mei. It would be best if it was ruan mei first then firefly later.
I might need that selector with my bad 4* luck 😂I pulled a bunch on his first banner and only got E0 and figured he's not worth building until E2 so I chose E6 Xueyi on the last selector heh...
Really loved your video, actual stats and data, the % of extra dmg from lightcones, eidolons, teamates and relics are extremely valuable, even if they are an approximation, they still give a solid idea of what to expect. Thanks for your hard work! i really appreciate it!
Thank you, I appreciate when someone tells the flaws of a character, all this content creators just selling every character like it's Christmas became really annoying lately.
There's no point, 2 relics have set main stats and getting atk% is not that hard on body / orb. Speed boots are worth, and break effect rope is decent, but generally I would only spend resins on speed boots or energy regen ropes for supports since you have to farm for substats anyways.
@@Dragonboy55564 i would never use resins for boots. you have a 1/4 chance of getting the right mainstat. orbs have way lower chances of getting the right one, bodies are almost as hard to get. rope only has 5 main stats so its also not nearly as bad as orb/body. having lots of resins is great anyway since the set is new and most people have their supports built already while trying to get great relics on firefly, not just ones with the right mainstat.
@@Sparkofshurima It's not exactly 1/4 because the attributes have different drop chances. Speed boots only have a 10% drop chance while the other main stats have 30% each.
@@EdegarPereira wow, i played since launch and never noticed that. sorry for my mistake and thanks for letting me know. that changes alot and probably saved me some time farming.
I'd like to point out that this level of depth and analysis on the actual numbers is why I'm here. This guide makes any other video on firefly guides redundant in the best way possible. Thanks for this comprehensive material.
same i skiped her because i dont like her character and now ff is very meh without her. i am thorn between pull bot or skip both. i think I will skip since I have E6 acheron (from saving) so I dont really need to worry since my second weak side has 10 cycles to clear.
@@lucaskp16 You could also pull FF and wait for another break support, which will undoubtedly happen at some point, if only to allow for two break effect teams.
Quick and informative as always! The light cone info is exactly what I was looking for. With Aeon being pretty good, I think I'll only try a few pulls for the signature so I can save. My pulls for Robin were abysmal, who I didn't even end up getting so I could save for Firefly. I'll make up the difference by spending months farming giga relics for her.
From of all the leakers, theorycrafters, content creators, and even the livestream, they all concluded that Firefly still needs her racoon boyfriend/girlfriend (and Ruan Mei) to deal a lot of damage
who woulda thought another "dont got ruan mei? lol good luck" feature edit: nobody asked, but im here to declare: i still like Ruan Mei, but I’ve been saving for Firefly specifically bc i just like her more
Sucks that the characters i dislike are always the best and most broken supports in the game that literally every character/team wants on their team and have no alternatives. I don't like Bennett and i don't like Ruan Mei either and will not pull for her i don't care how valuable or Meta she is and im still pulling for Firefly lol.
@@Shadowenclave47 I personally don't care abt who's the support of my main dps. When it comes to support I'll pull for their meta value, but when it comes to dps I'll only pull for characters I like. Which resulted in me not getting a single new dps since blade banner, and never have I felt regret.
I’m surprised when people post snarky comments about CC’s missing certain things, without expanding on what they actually failed to mention. Not very helpful, right? Just commented for you to feel better and superior, right?
@leedevee what, i was legitimately expecting it to be mentioned because ever since they showed her kit i was curious about how she would do against those enemies since i dont have early access to her like content creators
It's pretty obvious that she just doesn't. Like, straight up, do not bring her to bosses that lock their toughness bars. I don't think it's necessary to explicitly state it when on several occasions he mentions that FF is a break DPS. He doesn't also need to say "if no break, no damage."
@@leedevee some people really just need to write nothing if they have nothing useful to say, instead of being a douche and showing how worthless you truly are
There’s been quite a few showcases of her completely decimating bosses like Sam and Yanqing. She kills things so fast when she can weakness break (these bosses usually have windows where you can) that generally it doesn’t matter too much.
With Gallagher on QPQ you can theoretically have a 1 turn Ult rotation, just have to play with rotation a bit and hold on support Ults for a bit for QPQ to go to Firefly.
I don't know how good this option is, considering that we want to use Gallagher as a battery for generating SP. And another LC is better suited for this purpose.
I was lucky to get both this patch since tbh I wanted both but now I’m bankrupt af since I lost 2 50/50 💀 and now I’m having problems building the whole team since well I only have Gallagher built since I was using him with Acheron before god help
@@Paramour1 i admire your courage not to follow the meta. I just lost 50 50 after 83 pulls on Ruan Mei, meaning I don't have RM and only E0 Firefly. I feel sad that I don't have the meta team, but seeing that you don't care gives me courage not to care either.
I cannot believe I am here, hahaha! I was having doubts on whether I want Firefly or not. Considering my Stellar Jade savings, having pulled for Ruan Mei, and waiting for two specific characters, it was... quite the decision. I ended up winning the 50/50, so it's safe to say that the anxiety I got pulling for her went well. The biggest win I got watching this video definitely was the fact that Firefly does not need crit stats! And with Ruan Mei (got lucky with some relic rolls so she's combat ready), HMC, and Gallagher all geared up, I think I can finish building her within this patch! :D The same cannot be said to Fu Xuan, who remains at 126 speed D:
@@imyournme6632 Himekos follow ups are triggered by fire weakness breaks, firefly implants fire weakness and shreds toughness bars fast so himeko can follow up lots. The synergy is fun but fireflys 4 normal team mates are so necessary for her that it would probably feel bad to use in anything but pure fiction.
Can you pin a comment explaining why Ruan Mei is so strong with no alternatives? This would mostly be a very large break extension (bigger superbreak window) and a massive break efficiency boost to get the initial break much faster, especially on chunky enemies with lots of toughness. She also buffs damage thru res pen and etc, but that can be done with alternatives to some extent
TY Gouba for the in-depth guide! I was planning to use Firefly as a flexible back up for whenever my team needs a fire dps. Yet again having to use specific supports/light cones with no real alternatives to have a character perform somewhat decent is for me the biggest problem of HSR. For example not having pella build or owning the pearls of sweat light cone and having some characters debuff count on Acheron’s stacks and some not made me already almost not pull for her. It was only by getting lucky on Gallagher that I did.
My Gallagher is only E1 and i already have 4 fully built sustains whith Eidelons and 5 star lightcones and i still feel really pressured into building Gallagher . Even tho i really like FF i think i'll skip her for now since her team building is so restrictive and that i really feel the need for Gallagher for superbreak teams .
How are u getting upset with the most replaceable part of firefly team u can run any sustain like I would understand if it was like I don't have ruin mai as that will be a lot of dmg loss but come on ur crying about gallagher bro u can literally replace him with anyone luocha adventurine etc no content creator said u need gallagher they said it would be nice synergy u need hmc and ruin mai
@@UltimatePollo3495 you're mostly right , but the things Gallagher can do in a break team are much more useful than what Loucha and Aventurine can especially against Fire weak enemies like this MOC 12 . i struggle a lot with Loucha in this moc second half .
instead of asta, could you use hanya? as a f2p idk if im able to get ruin mei this patch so i need a sub till then. my thought prosess is that hanya is more skill point friendly, (then asta) have the speed buff that mei would normally give though less consistent. and boosts attack for that atk->break conversion. thoughts. - for your ask guoba vid ❤
Hanya could be worse because 1) Not being a fire unit means she can't contribute to breaking; 2) Hanya's ult buff will run out very quickly considering how fast complete combustion SAM is. Asta's attack buff is based on her own turns, which means Firefly can use the buff throughout her 4 actions in complete combustion. SP will only be a problem if Gallagher isn't fast enough or you're using skill on Asta too frequently.
I don't see people talk much about this, but because FF realise so heavily in HMC, that when the MC gets a new path, it will render her useless and thus not be future proof. I'm not a FF hater and for a fact I would love to pull FF (and hope for E2) but this looming idea is the only reason that's stopping me Yes we could hope that new break supports come out maybe with higher heights than HMC. But it would be same case as Kafka. If you can have 2 superbreaks support you will want use that instead, like how Kafka will excell with another DOT enabler It's all speculation, but her future is very 50/50 at this stage
But there's nothing stopping you from keeping HMC even if a new path comes out...? I guarantee whatever they get, it's not gonna be a team compatible with FF as we know her, so what even changes? If you wanna play FF, you'll take HMC regardless, and it's interchangeable at no cost. Even if you're doing two-team content, I seriously doubt any MC path is going to completely just negate the reason to take her. You're overestimating that severely.
I was going to pull for firefly, but she just looks so bad to play. I need to use her with both harmony trailblazer and ruan mei, and she does no damage at all when enemies arent weakness broken. I'm really thankful that this guide actually talks about firefly objectively with all these calculations and graphs. One of the things I really like in HSR is that I could mix and match characters for different situations, but firefly losing 40% of her dmg without ruan mei, and 68% without harmony trailblazer is ridiculous. The e2 looked so cool because it was like seele's resurgence but with a cool mecha, but I'm now planning on skipping firefly. I never pulled for ruan mei and still dont want to simply because I dont like her kit or design. Thanks for the great guide!
Bruh i gotta farm trailbraizer and gala first then firefly since they are like lvl 1, 0 invest for now😭😭, it's gonna take some before i can truly enjoy Firefly full potential.
perfect guide as always! I do wander though, for the team building at 17:20 : Wouldn't putting ruan mei's signature light cone on hmc be better ? the insane 60% break effect it gives would increases hmc's E4 teamwide buff, thus giving more break effect to firefly while also still helping ruan mei hit 180% break effect. hmc also having higher ult frequency would help keeping the damage buff at 100% uptime (although it doesnt really matter in that case), while also recovering more skill points, helping with E0 firefly sp consumption. (the extra sp from this could also make you able to run "What Is Real" on gallagher (his signature) instead of multiplication, giving him some personal damage while helping with his A2 healing buff, though I'm not sure if you'd be sp neutral or not.) It would also allow you to run "Memories of The past" on ruan mei, helping with her ult uptime and hitting 180% break effect, while also gaining some more energy from her signature on hmc, which gives 10 energy to the team per wave.
Excited!!! WUOGOOOO! IVE BENN FARMING FOR HER MATERIALS A MONTH AGO! FINISH IT JUST 4 DAYS AGO. HAVE A TOTAL OF 12K JADES & 9 TICKETS WITH A GUARANTEED FIREFLY. hope i got her early. ❤. Btw nice outfit Guoba 😂
So I dont have Ruan Mei but I really want to use Hanya is there anyway I can run Hanya in place of Ruan Mei? (Obviously I know she doesnt compare) Or is Asta the choice over Hanya?
Asta is great because her atk buff works well with firefly and the speed boost + her break dmg being not negligeble is pretty great for firefly. Hanya could be okay if you're really worried about sps, and asta is kinda too sp hungry without enough eidolons. If you don't have asta eidolons you can use pela, since break and super break dmg scales of def shred
Ngl since I’m not a whale e2 Firefly being that good is nice to hear! I’ll def be the most anticipated for her future reruns and I find the waiting game the most rewarding (this isn’t my first rodeo as a Dan Heng IL main lol)
as someone who has never fully maxxed the Abyss in genshin, I'm glad that I don't have to pull for Ruan mei, she's like the most eh character design I've seen in a while so it just sucks that she's so broken in the game, same with bennet.
The E2 "bait" characters are completely functional and able to clear the hardest content with 36 stars at E0. Are they supposed to launch the characters with bad Eidolons instead because it will lead to..nobody knows?
@@deliro8758 no, but firefly instead needs RM to be functional, not the e2, e2 is whale bait sure but rm is just greed bait, especially when her f2p options are terrible outside of rm for a second slot
@@ratatouilledrinksclorax9897 Bullshit, lol. Are you seriously crying right now that the strongest character in the game needs more supports? The dumb child even gets a dedicated 5* Fire Break Abundance unit in 2 patches, lmao.
What u mean new players have so many more ways to get jade's like all the side quest of the different worlds and they still have the perm events they have all of simulated universe first time clear the first moc gives 200 jade's for each time u complete a stage its not a problem for newer players
Even crazier was instead of Huoho or even Wolf rerun on second half, they instead gave you double DPS banner rather than mix and match the two paths between the double banner.
On the one hand, I want to play Sam so much, on the other hand, I absolutely hate little girls as playable characters, so I have to skip this with clenching teeth. Sigh, is it hard to just give us an independent robot for once? And of course she’s gonna be stronger than Boothill, who would’ve guessed
She ain't little, she's as tall as most of the tall females in this game, but I get what you mean If it makes it any better, she barely appears in combat
Little? She is literally one of the tallest characters thst use the "maid" model, if you put her next to Jingliu and Bronya you would be shocked to find out Firefly is slightly taller than them
@@anothernerdontheinternet yeah yeah, typical gacha/anime lovers’ excuses: ‘she uses a tall female model!’ or ‘she’s a 3000 year old dragon reincarnation!’ or ‘it’s just pixels, not a real person!’. This is your typical excuse to sexualise someone like Bailu and literally anything that is either tall or short, young or 3000 year old. We get it, you’ve twisted your mind after years of watching and playing anime games where this is a norm. Literally every second anime project is about sexualising schoolgirls. You can fool yourself all you want, but characters like Firefly look exactly like schoolgirls, minors. I couldn’t care less what 3D model type they use or what stupid lore the writers came up with, if you’re horny for characters like Firefly (which you’re, even the official Reddit sub is full of you creeps, you never hide), it means you love minors, because her body looks exactly like this. But who am I kidding, you all are delusional after years of watching predatory anime crap, thinking it’s healthy. I’m 100% sure the whole anime community has more ped0z than some Catholic Church
She's not really powercreeping anyone though. Firefly is a Break DPS, she has a condition and excels when you can build a team around that condition. If you can't break an enemy or don't have Break-oriented supports, Acheron is still the top choice for dealing straightforward damage. And if you want to stomp bosses/single-target content, Boothill is still doing more damage than Firefly in that scenario.
@@heiwanushiyasuda9092 Sure thing, a lot of people feel the same though. I own Boothill, just like I do every single unit except Luocha. No favourites here, but a release schedule like this is setting a horrible precedent, because they are absolutely filling the exact same niche. I know the FF stans are incredibly toxic, that doesn't mean I don't think it's absolute bullshit when a break DPS is followed by a break DPS which does more damage, is usable in more scenarios, gets its own relic and planar set. She gets two(!) Fire 5* debuffer and healers in the upcoming two patches to boost her further. You can get f***ed if you think licking up to your Chinese corpo overlords is good just because they gave you a loli mech. This release schedule sucks, plain and simple. And a lot of people see it this way, which is an issue for the game and should be listened to. If they repeated this cycle every patch everyone would think it sucks. That alone is testament to how bad this release is.
@@deliro8758 "I know the FF stans are incredibly toxic". Proceeds to be toxicity incarnate. Chill out. Wtf even are those "loli" and "your chinese overlords" allegations. To be more constructive, you can't assume JQ will be "Firefly's support" just because of him being fire. You can also say the same about the second one. I don't wanna talk leaks here, but if there is a debuffer, they benefit EVERYONE in the archetype. Same goes for buffers. If Jiaoqiu benefits Firefly, he will benefit Boothill too. As he will benefit Xueyi. And the others. The element doesn't mean anything by itself, only which enemies' toughness will be depleted when they attack, and the type of damage they deal. Most enemies have three weaknesses anyway, there are plenty of enemies with fire+phys combo. Don't be so pessimistic. They are not making supports with one specific unit in mind. Not yet, at least.
@@deliro8758 that entire middle paragraph is laced with hypocrisy. If anything I see mostly boothill fans being “toxic” over firefly before she was released and rarely the other way around.

Not gonna lie, it was absolutely vile of them to put Ruan Mei's rerun with Firefly.
the topaz/robin was a small taste of RM/FF banner. I really hope they dont do it a third time with Jiao/Acheron lol
If they didn't then the players would cry that it's cruel to rerun her after ff cause they had already spend all their jades on her
@@dmitriducklas bro are you high, the reason why it would be better to rerun ruan mei AFTER firefly is for players to have time to accumulate more jades from SU/MoC/Events/etc. Nobody would be complaining LMAO
@@caseydanchou nah it would be a bit worse cuz you should be rolling for ruan mei first then firefly since if you get firefly first you'll end up a pretty bad unit that you cant use until you get ruan mei. It would be best if it was ruan mei first then firefly later.

Gallagher is available on her banner and you can also get a 4 star selector in 2.3 that will include Gallagher fyi.
Epic!
I love gallagher im so glad i built mine tbh
I might need that selector with my bad 4* luck 😂I pulled a bunch on his first banner and only got E0 and figured he's not worth building until E2 so I chose E6 Xueyi on the last selector heh...

Really loved your video, actual stats and data, the % of extra dmg from lightcones, eidolons, teamates and relics are extremely valuable, even if they are an approximation, they still give a solid idea of what to expect. Thanks for your hard work! i really appreciate it!
Great guide!
Uploading at 5am is wild, but I had something to watch during my commute, so thanks. 😊
Congrats bro, i know you've been waiting for this moment for a long time. SAM's finally here!
By far the best early video I’ve seen on firefly
About daaaamn time Guoba! I'm itchin' waiting for this FF guide 😁
0:51 OH MY GOD ITS THE GALACTIC UNIT of OMNIDIRECTIONAL BATTLE ARMOR
Thank you, I appreciate when someone tells the flaws of a character, all this content creators just selling every character like it's Christmas became really annoying lately.
got myself a BUNCH of relic parts to use to get her set resinless, and 6 self modeling resins to try and sniper main stats, worth every time
same here, i might get to 10k before she drops. also saved up 500 tickets and a bunch of fuel, 2.3 is going to be so fun!
There's no point, 2 relics have set main stats and getting atk% is not that hard on body / orb. Speed boots are worth, and break effect rope is decent, but generally I would only spend resins on speed boots or energy regen ropes for supports since you have to farm for substats anyways.
@@Dragonboy55564 i would never use resins for boots. you have a 1/4 chance of getting the right mainstat. orbs have way lower chances of getting the right one, bodies are almost as hard to get. rope only has 5 main stats so its also not nearly as bad as orb/body. having lots of resins is great anyway since the set is new and most people have their supports built already while trying to get great relics on firefly, not just ones with the right mainstat.
@@Sparkofshurima It's not exactly 1/4 because the attributes have different drop chances. Speed boots only have a 10% drop chance while the other main stats have 30% each.
@@EdegarPereira wow, i played since launch and never noticed that. sorry for my mistake and thanks for letting me know. that changes alot and probably saved me some time farming.
Great job on the pixel art Guoba, the mech suit looks magnificent!
thank you for the pull order, really needed it
I'd like to point out that this level of depth and analysis on the actual numbers is why I'm here. This guide makes any other video on firefly guides redundant in the best way possible. Thanks for this comprehensive material.
Finally got to see guobafly and G.U.O.B.A in a hotaru guide
You're very talented man keep up the good work
Been waiting for this, I don’t plan on pulling RM so this would be interesting :)
same i skiped her because i dont like her character and now ff is very meh without her. i am thorn between pull bot or skip both. i think I will skip since I have E6 acheron (from saving) so I dont really need to worry since my second weak side has 10 cycles to clear.
@@lucaskp16 You could also pull FF and wait for another break support, which will undoubtedly happen at some point, if only to allow for two break effect teams.
Ff withour rm lmao
Manifesting my E2S1 best girl 🙏 Ideally with lots of Gallaghers showing up along the way
Quick and informative as always! The light cone info is exactly what I was looking for. With Aeon being pretty good, I think I'll only try a few pulls for the signature so I can save. My pulls for Robin were abysmal, who I didn't even end up getting so I could save for Firefly. I'll make up the difference by spending months farming giga relics for her.
Locked in as soon as I saw her
CAN WE GET MUCH HIGHER
Thanks Gouba, i have been waiting for this to drop. I am a numbers guy but i dont have the patience to run calcs from scratch. Keep up the great work!
From of all the leakers, theorycrafters, content creators, and even the livestream, they all concluded that Firefly still needs her racoon boyfriend/girlfriend (and Ruan Mei) to deal a lot of damage
LETS GOOO. I've been waiting for the early Firefly content! Great content as always
hope you enjoyyy :D
who woulda thought
another "dont got ruan mei? lol good luck" feature
edit: nobody asked, but im here to declare:
i still like Ruan Mei, but I’ve been saving for Firefly specifically bc i just like her more
Sucks that the characters i dislike are always the best and most broken supports in the game that literally every character/team wants on their team and have no alternatives. I don't like Bennett and i don't like Ruan Mei either and will not pull for her i don't care how valuable or Meta she is and im still pulling for Firefly lol.

Oh yeah its Firefly TIME!!!! Great guide as always and you already know Im pulling for best girl
im surprised you didnt mention how she fares against bosses that locks their own bar as a weakness tbh
I’m surprised when people post snarky comments about CC’s missing certain things, without expanding on what they actually failed to mention. Not very helpful, right? Just commented for you to feel better and superior, right?
@leedevee what, i was legitimately expecting it to be mentioned because ever since they showed her kit i was curious about how she would do against those enemies since i dont have early access to her like content creators
It's pretty obvious that she just doesn't. Like, straight up, do not bring her to bosses that lock their toughness bars.
I don't think it's necessary to explicitly state it when on several occasions he mentions that FF is a break DPS. He doesn't also need to say "if no break, no damage."
@@leedevee some people really just need to write nothing if they have nothing useful to say, instead of being a douche and showing how worthless you truly are
There’s been quite a few showcases of her completely decimating bosses like Sam and Yanqing. She kills things so fast when she can weakness break (these bosses usually have windows where you can) that generally it doesn’t matter too much.
With Gallagher on QPQ you can theoretically have a 1 turn Ult rotation, just have to play with rotation a bit and hold on support Ults for a bit for QPQ to go to Firefly.
I don't know how good this option is, considering that we want to use Gallagher as a battery for generating SP. And another LC is better suited for this purpose.
Not worth it. Just use multiplication.
Damn i wasnt expecting asta to be 50% lower than ruan mei.. i really wasnt wanting to get ruan :(
you can always try it for yourself on release since theyre same banner but my tests did not enjoy asta
I was lucky to get both this patch since tbh I wanted both but now I’m bankrupt af since I lost 2 50/50 💀 and now I’m having problems building the whole team since well I only have Gallagher built since I was using him with Acheron before god help
Same, this is really a bummer because I have Firefly and want her Eidolons, but i dont like Ruan Mei at all
@@janbertguerrero6988 I pulled for her E1 and LC and skipped Ruan, metaslaves will be yapping rn reading this.
@@Paramour1 i admire your courage not to follow the meta.
I just lost 50 50 after 83 pulls on Ruan Mei, meaning I don't have RM and only E0 Firefly.
I feel sad that I don't have the meta team, but seeing that you don't care gives me courage not to care either.
I cannot believe I am here, hahaha! I was having doubts on whether I want Firefly or not. Considering my Stellar Jade savings, having pulled for Ruan Mei, and waiting for two specific characters, it was... quite the decision. I ended up winning the 50/50, so it's safe to say that the anxiety I got pulling for her went well. The biggest win I got watching this video definitely was the fact that Firefly does not need crit stats! And with Ruan Mei (got lucky with some relic rolls so she's combat ready), HMC, and Gallagher all geared up, I think I can finish building her within this patch! :D
The same cannot be said to Fu Xuan, who remains at 126 speed D:
Himeko been waiting for her best partner. Cant wait for them to destroy together.

Guoba everytime I somehow find you in my recommends once in awhile your guoba models always baffle me 😂😅
Haha I hope you like em
sucks I don't have RM, really hope they release a 4* alternative in the near future
very tempted to get her to E2 now but I don't have money lol
Can you pin a comment explaining why Ruan Mei is so strong with no alternatives? This would mostly be a very large break extension (bigger superbreak window) and a massive break efficiency boost to get the initial break much faster, especially on chunky enemies with lots of toughness. She also buffs damage thru res pen and etc, but that can be done with alternatives to some extent
Great first look! I wonder what a premium superbreak support would look like, considering how powerful the Hatblazer is already
i cant wait to do just fine with HTB,Robin,Firefly, and Aventurine team
TY Gouba for the in-depth guide! I was planning to use Firefly as a flexible back up for whenever my team needs a fire dps. Yet again having to use specific supports/light cones with no real alternatives to have a character perform somewhat decent is for me the biggest problem of HSR. For example not having pella build or owning the pearls of sweat light cone and having some characters debuff count on Acheron’s stacks and some not made me already almost not pull for her. It was only by getting lucky on Gallagher that I did.
SAM/Firefly gonna tear things up like Setsuna and the 00 Quanta!
tranS-AM!
after getting diagnosed with cancer..Sam gouba is the best thing ive ever seen! it made my day, godbless u sir gouba!
My Gallagher is only E1 and i already have 4 fully built sustains whith Eidelons and 5 star lightcones and i still feel really pressured into building Gallagher . Even tho i really like FF i think i'll skip her for now since her team building is so restrictive and that i really feel the need for Gallagher for superbreak teams .
How are u getting upset with the most replaceable part of firefly team u can run any sustain like I would understand if it was like I don't have ruin mai as that will be a lot of dmg loss but come on ur crying about gallagher bro u can literally replace him with anyone luocha adventurine etc no content creator said u need gallagher they said it would be nice synergy u need hmc and ruin mai
@@UltimatePollo3495 you're mostly right , but the things Gallagher can do in a break team are much more useful than what Loucha and Aventurine can especially against Fire weak enemies like this MOC 12 . i struggle a lot with Loucha in this moc second half .
I'm playing with Huohuo, no problems.
Wow, what a complete video, thanks guoba!!
instead of asta, could you use hanya? as a f2p idk if im able to get ruin mei this patch so i need a sub till then. my thought prosess is that hanya is more skill point friendly, (then asta) have the speed buff that mei would normally give though less consistent. and boosts attack for that atk->break conversion. thoughts. - for your ask guoba vid ❤
Hanya could be worse because 1) Not being a fire unit means she can't contribute to breaking; 2) Hanya's ult buff will run out very quickly considering how fast complete combustion SAM is.
Asta's attack buff is based on her own turns, which means Firefly can use the buff throughout her 4 actions in complete combustion. SP will only be a problem if Gallagher isn't fast enough or you're using skill on Asta too frequently.
that is true thanks
Quick and great as always.
I don't see people talk much about this, but because FF realise so heavily in HMC, that when the MC gets a new path, it will render her useless and thus not be future proof.
I'm not a FF hater and for a fact I would love to pull FF (and hope for E2) but this looming idea is the only reason that's stopping me
Yes we could hope that new break supports come out maybe with higher heights than HMC. But it would be same case as Kafka.
If you can have 2 superbreaks support you will want use that instead, like how Kafka will excell with another DOT enabler
It's all speculation, but her future is very 50/50 at this stage
But there's nothing stopping you from keeping HMC even if a new path comes out...?
I guarantee whatever they get, it's not gonna be a team compatible with FF as we know her, so what even changes? If you wanna play FF, you'll take HMC regardless, and it's interchangeable at no cost. Even if you're doing two-team content, I seriously doubt any MC path is going to completely just negate the reason to take her. You're overestimating that severely.
Thank you so much for the content. All the best!
I was going to pull for firefly, but she just looks so bad to play. I need to use her with both harmony trailblazer and ruan mei, and she does no damage at all when enemies arent weakness broken. I'm really thankful that this guide actually talks about firefly objectively with all these calculations and graphs. One of the things I really like in HSR is that I could mix and match characters for different situations, but firefly losing 40% of her dmg without ruan mei, and 68% without harmony trailblazer is ridiculous.
The e2 looked so cool because it was like seele's resurgence but with a cool mecha, but I'm now planning on skipping firefly. I never pulled for ruan mei and still dont want to simply because I dont like her kit or design. Thanks for the great guide!
haha.. ha. Yeah, everything is always weakness broken and shes super smooth to play. The *only* downside is her team comps, really.
"thank you guoba" we all say in unison
so hyped for FF, hope all her wanters successfully pull her 🙏
Bruh i gotta farm trailbraizer and gala first then firefly since they are like lvl 1, 0 invest for now😭😭, it's gonna take some before i can truly enjoy Firefly full potential.
you got this :) trailblazer is pretty low investment, galla is decent too
Hahaha thankfully I already farmed for Gallagher and HMC this patch. I only need to give them good relics
yay! goated video from the goat itself!
so basically if you cant get nor have ruan mei, you should skip firefly got it
perfect guide as always!
I do wander though, for the team building at 17:20 :
Wouldn't putting ruan mei's signature light cone on hmc be better ?
the insane 60% break effect it gives would increases hmc's E4 teamwide buff, thus giving more break effect to firefly while also still helping ruan mei hit 180% break effect.
hmc also having higher ult frequency would help keeping the damage buff at 100% uptime (although it doesnt really matter in that case), while also recovering more skill points, helping with E0 firefly sp consumption. (the extra sp from this could also make you able to run "What Is Real" on gallagher (his signature) instead of multiplication, giving him some personal damage while helping with his A2 healing buff, though I'm not sure if you'd be sp neutral or not.)
It would also allow you to run "Memories of The past" on ruan mei, helping with her ult uptime and hitting 180% break effect, while also gaining some more energy from her signature on hmc, which gives 10 energy to the team per wave.
Ruan Mei is mandatory if you want to play Firefly
That SAM transformation was epic
So E1 Firefly better or E0 S1?
I prefer e1! Aeon is great and e1 is close to e2 🐻

“There’s no power creep on Star Rail”
Destruction characters and attacks that go from single target to blast when enhanced. Name a more iconic duo
qingque failed to get the memo on this one💔
So I dont have Ruan Mei but I really want to use Hanya is there anyway I can run Hanya in place of Ruan Mei? (Obviously I know she doesnt compare) Or is Asta the choice over Hanya?
Asta is great because her atk buff works well with firefly and the speed boost + her break dmg being not negligeble is pretty great for firefly.
Hanya could be okay if you're really worried about sps, and asta is kinda too sp hungry without enough eidolons.
If you don't have asta eidolons you can use pela, since break and super break dmg scales of def shred
Ngl since I’m not a whale e2 Firefly being that good is nice to hear! I’ll def be the most anticipated for her future reruns and I find the waiting game the most rewarding (this isn’t my first rodeo as a Dan Heng IL main lol)
as someone who has never fully maxxed the Abyss in genshin, I'm glad that I don't have to pull for Ruan mei, she's like the most eh character design I've seen in a while so it just sucks that she's so broken in the game, same with bennet.

It’s a downer that she is so dependent on Ruan Mei. I find her so fing boring.
The fact that Ruan Mei is having a rerun alongside Firefly is fucking diabolical. No chill at all for players like me who just started a month ago.
What u mean new players have so many more ways to get jade's like all the side quest of the different worlds and they still have the perm events they have all of simulated universe first time clear the first moc gives 200 jade's for each time u complete a stage its not a problem for newer players
Even crazier was instead of Huoho or even Wolf rerun on second half, they instead gave you double DPS banner rather than mix and match the two paths between the double banner.

Honestly disgusting favoritism if it leads to powercreeping a 3 week old unit. This will 100% make me more hesitant to spend on the game
She's not really powercreeping anyone though. Firefly is a Break DPS, she has a condition and excels when you can build a team around that condition.
If you can't break an enemy or don't have Break-oriented supports, Acheron is still the top choice for dealing straightforward damage. And if you want to stomp bosses/single-target content, Boothill is still doing more damage than Firefly in that scenario.
Dude, stop. Break is an archetype, not a single team for your favourite Boothill. There should and will be variance
@@heiwanushiyasuda9092 Sure thing, a lot of people feel the same though. I own Boothill, just like I do every single unit except Luocha. No favourites here, but a release schedule like this is setting a horrible precedent, because they are absolutely filling the exact same niche.
I know the FF stans are incredibly toxic, that doesn't mean I don't think it's absolute bullshit when a break DPS is followed by a break DPS which does more damage, is usable in more scenarios, gets its own relic and planar set. She gets two(!) Fire 5* debuffer and healers in the upcoming two patches to boost her further. You can get f***ed if you think licking up to your Chinese corpo overlords is good just because they gave you a loli mech.
This release schedule sucks, plain and simple. And a lot of people see it this way, which is an issue for the game and should be listened to. If they repeated this cycle every patch everyone would think it sucks. That alone is testament to how bad this release is.
@@deliro8758 "I know the FF stans are incredibly toxic". Proceeds to be toxicity incarnate. Chill out. Wtf even are those "loli" and "your chinese overlords" allegations.
To be more constructive, you can't assume JQ will be "Firefly's support" just because of him being fire. You can also say the same about the second one. I don't wanna talk leaks here, but if there is a debuffer, they benefit EVERYONE in the archetype. Same goes for buffers. If Jiaoqiu benefits Firefly, he will benefit Boothill too. As he will benefit Xueyi. And the others. The element doesn't mean anything by itself, only which enemies' toughness will be depleted when they attack, and the type of damage they deal. Most enemies have three weaknesses anyway, there are plenty of enemies with fire+phys combo.
Don't be so pessimistic. They are not making supports with one specific unit in mind. Not yet, at least.
@@deliro8758 that entire middle paragraph is laced with hypocrisy.
If anything I see mostly boothill fans being “toxic” over firefly before she was released and rarely the other way around.
