I got extremely lucky to beat this boss battle on the first try as a F2P player. The price was Dan Heng's life - this boss hates single-target characters.
My approach to this fight basically took advantage of momentum; Luocha doesn’t have AoE basic or skill but his Ultimate works, so I only used his ultimate during the gambling rounds during the second phase. My full team was Fire MC, Luocha, Jing Yuan without his signature lightcone, and Xueyi, this team flattened pre-nerf Aventurine first try.
Wait pre nerf Aventurine? They nerfed the boss fight? If so I I wasn't aware but I fought him on the night of the update release lol. Sounds like a cool team tho
I went into this with Argenti as Main DPS, Tingyun, Asta, and Luocha. I mean, you could try pulling Luocha he is the best healer(Bar Huohuo because she doubles as a Harmony unit with her Ult) and extremelly useful in this fight because he has an AOE with his ult, so you will always have an answer for the Dice.......as well as his Cleanse and emergency healing. If you can have his field up reliably, it makes the fight easier. That said, there are too many DPS. If you want to use Kafka, then you are going to need Pela and Luka in your team....and a healer with a cleanse because it is mandatory in this fight due to the high chance of Imprisonment
Oh yeah im well aware the team I went in with was "dps go brrr" LMAO I was actually talking to one of my friends yesterday and I told him my problem in star rail is I keep building all these dps characters and I need to build some support charcters to help them out. So the good thing is my Sparkle is getting built atm and my Pela will be getting built after that. I have heard very good things about Luocha tho.
@TheSpecialKExperience Yeah, the reason why i am going to chance my 50/50 with Aventurine. I am now working on Black Swan to have a wind DoT team with Sampo. She is already Ascended, has a few relics, and has a few trace levels. Then i have to build Pela, Guinaifen, and Luka. Finish leveling up the Traces of my Seele and Level Hanya, too. The 5 star i am aiming for is Robin, actually. I am gambling on Aventurine because if I do not get him, I go straight to Robin. If i do, i get a Shielder that deploys, big, AOE shields on a whim.....Instead of using Gepard or my Trailblazer....Which i will be using in his Harmony form as a Break Support. That said I want Robin because she is a 5 star Harmony version of Asta with Tingyun's skill, not to mention her debuff erasure and party wide inmunity....plus her Niche in Follow up teams for my Herta Ratio Follow up team.....when i finish building herta and begin with Ratio I have a build-up of characters. This is what happens when you can not play anymore after launch because the HSR Launcher from the Epic Store decided to put 3 giant viruses in your computer which fried it. I went back to HSR a few months ago after getting everything back in order....On the tail end of Argenti's interlude
Aventurine’s focus on luck and betting, along with his meticulous planning, really reminds me of Nagito. Insane, brilliant, and always relying on ‘luck’.
nah dude, cause I had to build my gepard and make my bailu have 10k hp cause of this ToT I had to replace my seele for my built acheron and have blade just for the dice😂😂😂
My first try was Huohuo, Jingliu, Gepard, and Destruction MC. Got to phase 2 and got wrecked by the gambling span Second try was Huohuo, Black Swan, Gepard, and Destruction MC. Lost Black Swan at phase 2 50% heath and managed to win
The fight felt less of a test of characters builds And more of ensuring you win the gambling segments I brought some of my weakest units just cuz of Thier AOE and prevailed where my best single target units lost
Thats this whole chapter one character one shoting everyone easily outta nowhere. Acheron for me ruined Penacony cause she just doesnt have to try. Whats the point of making a story with stakes if an OP character can delete everything.
She holds back on purpose. She took on Aventurine’s deal out of respect. I do agree that having an overpowered character is bad, I think Acheron’s motivations are sensible enough to justify why she doesn’t power through all of Penacony. Her overpowered-ness is exactly what Aventurine wants so that she can grant him the death he desires (he wants to escape the good luck that plagues his life).
Yes, she is too OP but you don't see her going around killing everything in sight. The stake is that don't make her fight or else everything will be destroyed.
I mean she is an emanator? Even Jingliu who can kill a living planets is not an emanator. And for this specific fights, the stake is actually to force Acheron to use her power. Because not even Duke Inferno can make her use it voluntarily (then he begged for Acheron to unsheathe the sword) nor SAM, which both are highly dangerous profile even on universe-scale standards. So Aventurine make a bet and use his nerfed version of his stone (because its already shattered) which grants part of emanator powers to match hers (ofc he will lose). All of this trying to "frame" Acheron and put the pressure on the Family while freeing himselves from the shackles of fate. And as someone said above, she is not going on killing rampage either. She is sensible for some reason as we know the better of her. Its just some different writing technique to reverse the stakes placement. Its plentiful in Manga and Anime, but not too oblivious as the one they use usually here. But I do agree if they always use her as "jailbreak safecard" in 2.2 and 2.3, then its just a bad writing and I can't agree to that either
1:26 bro really talked about his own death 😢
It's really nice seeing the story from his perspective
Ngl i'm shocked😢😢😢
I loved the boss ost!
Aventurine unleash ultra pro max ultimate .
meanwhile acheron : did that guy just basic attack me 💀
26:09 he could be trying all he want lmao even at full power he has only 10% of the power of 1 Emanator while is Acheron is THE Emanator of Nihility
My lvl 80 Physical Trailblazer, lvl 80 Acheron, lvl 80 Herta, and especially, MVP lvl 80 HuoHuo cooked up Aventurine's coins.
Me : using single target chara except acheron
Me too : Obliterate him with only silver wolf died as the cost😂😂😂
You used that team?
MY COMMENT JUST DISAPPEARED!!! WTF?! I WAS TALKING ABOUT HOYO SHOULD'VE LET US USE ACHERON IN THE BOSSFIGHT!
I survived this boss with Kafka, Argenti, Geopard, and Huo Huo. Bruh the soundtrack is amazing.
I have Argenti I just haven't gotten to build him yet unfortunately and yes the music was amazing!

preservation is a must against boss if you can't have proper Rotation or Buffings
" Meager strength "

You know what I didn't even think about that and I streamed Danganropa 2 smh 🤦
nah dude, cause I had to build my gepard and make my bailu have 10k hp cause of this ToT
I had to replace my seele for my built acheron and have blade just for the dice😂😂😂
I assume I did this after the Nerf if there was one because I easily did this first try.
Yeah I played this on the night of release so I had no idea there was a nerf lol
Not my fuxan taking all the damage
I had to beat him with only 2 characters cuz my acheron and pela dipped in phase 1 😂😂 Clara and galleger pulled me through 🥰🥰🥰
Clara do be hella clutch I can't lie
We're getting cooked with this one! 🗣️🔥🔥🔥
And our bro Aventurine won just like that.
had the same team as you except i had luocha instead of bailu and beat him on first try. luocha diff hahaha
My comment just disappeared!
This fight took me two tries to beat
My first try was Huohuo, Jingliu, Gepard, and Destruction MC. Got to phase 2 and got wrecked by the gambling span
Second try was Huohuo, Black Swan, Gepard, and Destruction MC. Lost Black Swan at phase 2 50% heath and managed to win
The fight felt less of a test of characters builds
And more of ensuring you win the gambling segments
I brought some of my weakest units just cuz of Thier AOE and prevailed where my best single target units lost
@@potatoesblink3299 yeah it was truly AOE for the win lol

Theres.. the story... dumbass.. You do know Welt is the strongest one there right?
Yes, she is too OP but you don't see her going around killing everything in sight. The stake is that don't make her fight or else everything will be destroyed.
Cuz there are stakes to using her power. She's not gonna spam that ult bro
