      I got her and her cone with 50 pulls, but missed Ratio (I started playing on Boothill banner). I don't really like Feixiao, wind is not my vibe, and her skirt is a bit weird for me, she is cool but her design, for me, didn't make much sense so... My Clara is the only dps character using Topaz. I really hope that emanator Herta is a monstrous fua unity.

    Xueyi is my favorite character. The progenitor of the break and FUA meta, a 4* (I joke, but do I joke?) I waited so long for her to become playable. She's the hardest character to build. She wants a lot: crit, attack, break, speed, all while literally only having break in her traces out of these. Enemies stay broken too long, she can't do her job. Enemies can't get their toughness bar wittled, she can't build her stacks. She's very finnicky in some ways but she's by far the coolest character. The only cooler character than her in the break department is Boothill. Mech babygirl and cyborg babyboy

    @michaelcassidy5022 2 месяца назад +5

    Huohuo not being top 3 is ridiculous. At her release, Luocha was the meta sustainer because of how SP positive he was. Most of the community was saying the banner was the easiest skip since launch. It wasn't until about 2.1 that people started even realizing that she was a sustainer with half of a harmony character's kit stapled on for free. Meanwhile, until PF, Himeko and Herta were JUSTIFIABLY garbage-tier. Adding a new game mode that capitalizes on Erudition does not mean that people were wrong about the characters before the game mode existed. It's also like... why put both of them in the top 5, when they fulfill the same context? Not to mention, now that characters like Rappa and Jade are being released, the relative importance of Herta and Himeko is gonna drop like a stone, since we're going to get units that have their basic kit plus power creep.

    • @YumiSumire
      @YumiSumire 2 месяца назад

      why are you trying to rewrite history? Huohuo has always been considered as better than Luocha and a mini Harmony unit. In fact, people were claiming she powercrept Luocha, and I myself was defending Luocha back then, that they were equally strong (I was wrong).
      Just because some Reddit dwellers kept doomposting about her doesn't mean the community thought she was bad.
      Huohuo's banner was considered a skip because 1. Most people back then already pulled Luocha and Fuxuan so you don't need more than two healers and 2. Ruan Mei was coming close and she was the first premium Harmony character in the game. Her beta was also broken with massive buffs.

    • @michaelcassidy5022
      @michaelcassidy5022 2 месяца назад +1

      I'm not rewriting history at all. Once she was live, she was highly regarded, but the overall consensus was that Luocha was still better and Huohuo was an easy skip. Just look up revenue charts and you'll see that her debut banner was the lowest grossing at the very least until 2.2 because I can't find data for banner sales post-2.1 (this even includes the Dr Ratio debut/Kafka rerun).

    Before PF people I was one of the few people playing Herta. I already had a cracked Herta by the time it came around.
    She went from being T5 MoC _(the only content available)_ to T0 PF and she's been there ever since. Probably the longest running T0 character.

    @deltaspecies1697 2 месяца назад +5

    Topaz is a interesting character. While she did get "better" in terms of teams, it wasnt due to her being really good but rather the team around her being broken. Robin is by far the best harmony, Feixiao is by far the best dps and Aventurine is one of the best sustainers.
    Also, if anything, Topaz significantly lost value due to Moze and M7th. Moze is just better for Ratio teams and m7/moze is often a sigedrage instead of a downgrade to her in feixiao teams and sometimes can even be better. In a world there moze and m7 doesn't exist, topaz would have very high value. But now, she is arguably one of the least valuable 5*s.

      Everyone acting like E1S1 Topaz is a free character. I agree both Moze and March 7th (who is literally free up to E6) are at worst *minor* downgrades to E0S0 Topaz and sometimes they are surpassing her. It also showed there's nothing special about Topaz, if we get 5* M7 or Moze they instantly powercreep her. Maybe would have better/multiple summons or something, 3.X could be a wild ride.

  • @bjornnilsson2941
    @bjornnilsson2941 2 месяца назад

    Counter point, Gallagher is #1 cause he had the biggest glow up (from where he started compared to when FF released). Went from 4* Luocha / Lynx sidegrade (don't cope, that's what he was on release, the QPQ abuse hadn't been discovered yet nor was Robin or FF around to make use of it), to a god among men. A 4* sustain dealing 400-500k damage in an ult combo? If you had told me that back in 1.0 I'd have fainted. 😂
    I do think it's fair to have Topaz, Himeko and Gally in the top 3 but I do feel the latter is #1

    Btw, correct me if I'm wrong but Ratio doesn't have his BiS team yet since the debuffs he need are much more than the normal RRAT team provides. If So, I still believe he has a lot of room to grow as a main dd.

      I don't think he's *weak* but his kit sure is boring and uninspired. We've seen it all before and if you're not going all in on summon meta he sure as hell isn't worth a pull if you have Sparkle or like E1+ Bronya. The fact that he doesn't advance forward *all* summons makes it seem like summon meta isn't going to be a thing, just a hypercarry variation. RIP Topaz and Lingsha basically. Maybe we get a "summon Robin" too later in 3.X I honestly wouldn't be surprised but Sunday is not the meta changer we all thought, he's a Jing Yuan slave on release and probably will get a top tier DPS to support the next patch but ehh I'm not excited. Fugue seems like the star of that patch tbh.
