After seeing your Rappa guide, it almost made me consider wanting to pull for her. But Acheron and Aventurine are currently my top priorities since I've been eagerly anticipating their reruns for quite some time.
@@yamechitiyo8410depends, if you need a dps for only PF, rappa could be a decent pick. Otherwise I'd go with Acheron, without jiaoqiu she's still good in MOC/AS and with jiaoqiu she's good in PF too
Already had Acheron and Aventurine, so I decided to roll for her (for funsies. I don't even know her kit, just thought she looks badass. I love the whole color/graffiti thing she got going on). The way my jaw dropped when my lvl 80 Rappa (HMC + Ruan Mei combo), mixed break set, LC lvl 70, no lingsha, doesn't even have A6 yet, not maxed talent did 1 mil on both MOC and AS. I love big numbers. She's now my second fav char, after my beloved Boothill Now that I've watched your guide, I know how to make her do even more damage! BIGGER NUMBERS!!!
It seems I'll never leave that relic cavern. Firefly, Gallagher, Boothill, Lingsha, Rappa, Feixiao. March, Yunli, 2+2 ATK for Robin and virtually anyone else. It's insane, brings back memories of farming Emblem domain in Genshin.
I was excited for her due to her design but since I have C2 Firefly i really dont need another break DPS. Plus there's some upcoming characters I think will be more interesting or needed. After skipping Aventurine I have realized I need that good boy.
Damm im early for once, i like her and thought maybe id give a chance but after seeing tingyun for 2.6 and aventurine in the same patch as her... goodbye rappa
Not sure how important this is, but you can achieve the 0 turn ult with an S4 Carve the Moon Weave the Clouds + Vonwaq instead of RM sig as an alternative. This allows you to use Iron cavalry instead of Thief for non-PF game modes.
thank you Goba! mine Rappa took pity on me (7th in a row...) and came on 10th pool, so I feel very exited to try her out! no cool lightcone though, will settle on Serval's one

As someone who has Boothill but Skipped Firefly, I will be going for Rappa, She looks really fun to Play, and I tend to like to go for Underrated Characters that are really dang fun, and I love her Design and Character, gonna aim for E0S1.
Wow this kit is actually really cool… darn shame they are imaginary by far the most oversaturated element. Already the only content I struggle with is when imaginary resistance is crazy high, so I think I gotta skip.
@@abserd01 I think they're referring to limited characters. Imaginary has 5 and will soon have 6 with Sunday. Physical 4 and Fire 4 - 5 with Fugue. That and we're getting two new Imaginary characters back to back with Rappa and Sunday. Meanwhile Ice has a whopping 2.
Fantastic video, thanks for all of the amazing commentary (as always), Guoba :D absolutely love all the ideas you poured into this video. Out of curiosity, did you consider Another Peaceful Day for an LC? Does it not work with Superbreak, or just lose out to the Energy options?
rappa wouldve been cool... but she had the unfortunate fate of being in a banner with aventurine AND ACHERON... the best sustain and the best dps pretty much makes sure rappa wont have a chance to shine
@@sense6472 nope, nothing weird at all. Guoba asked about people's thoughts in the pinned comment. Your passing remark was pretty dumb, so I'll leave it at that.
@@skadi5196no, he's right. It's weird that in a guide video, where, obviously, you mean to build a character, you're saying you're going to skip her. Also, why did you call bro dumb? He just pointed that he find it weird... Not to say that DPS can come and go, but fuck it. If you like the character, then whatever just get it.
@@Yae_is_just_better yo, you high or something ? There is a significant part of the video where he explains what Rappa's kit does, and he shares his own thoughts on her. I watched the video, saw what she did, and came to the conclusion that going for the harmony(Sunday) in 2.7 is more valuable for me. This is in response to Guoba asking what my thoughts on Rappa were IN THE PINNED COMMENT. If my thought is I'm skipping her, this is the right place to mention it. Finding my personal thought on Rappa weird is ridiculous. It has nothing to do with you or anyone else. It almost seems like you're bothered that I don't find Rappa as valuable as you do. Absolute kindergarten behavior. Dumb, stupid or idiotic. All or any of these apply.
If I didn't need Acheron's LC and Aventurine YESTERDAY, I'd pull for her, because I need more PF units. My Argenti, Herta and Himeko already broke their backs carrying PF all this time lol. Oh, and I kinda want Sunday too, so there's that... Might get her on rerun tho.
Aventurine doesn’t really need his LC, he has more than enough defense from relics so all it really gives him is a meh buff to his personal damage and a 10% buff to the team’s damage
I love your videos but God, I feel so dizzy trying to digest this one. Once you started talking about special tech you can do with her, I started seeing stars because my brain is too smooth. 😂. I'll have to rewatch this when she releases.
@@guobacertified oh, I wasn't criticizing you. Solid video. I just need to have the unit and reference this video to make sure I understand what you are explaining.
@@irogt Don't forget you can always fire up her trial run while her banner's active to get a first-hand experience. The skill descriptions are usually more concise too
@@SuspiciousScout Oh for sure. I knew I was pulling for her. But at first the video was just A LOT of info and I had almost nothing in game to fully reference it. It made more sense once she dropped.
Rappa does seem pretty cool and she has some great animations, especially her first person Enhanced Basics, but I really want Sunday. I'm fairly new to this game, and I don't have a 5 star limited Harmony character, and I also just love Sunday's design so I'm definitely gonna pull for him. Rappa got majorly shafted by being put next to both Acheron and Aventurine for the rerunns and Sunday and Tingyun Fugue for the newcomers.
she might as well be the best erudition unit in the game right now, all thanks to SUPA BREEEAK (once exo toughness goes away idk, but just the fact she can concentrate that much damage onto a single enemy is already a big plus to me)
With all the other banners I don’t know if I can get her. I love her Aesthetic too.. :( I already have a perfect firefly team so it’s hard to justify over the next 2 units and E2 Acheron. Plus PF units have been collecting dust in my collection anyways. Argenti hasn’t seen a single end game battle
Ugh. I get she's amazing and all. I want to pull for her, her JP VA is also Megumi Han (Arima Kana, Shikanoko) but damn i can't justify it being a firefly team haver already :')
I'm a bit sick of characters that need hmc to function, I hope we get a character that can replace them because needing two copies feels really bad, and I'm already having to substitute ruan mei out sometimes with bronya just so I can fill that slot for both teams.
@@aria83308 We already have 3 Break DPSs and, with Fugue, we'll have 2 Enabler Supports. Why couldn't we run 2 Break teams? I don't want to be forced to use only one of my Break DPSs at a time just because there aren't enough Supports, so it's great that they're releasing more Supports for the same role. Supports hardly powercreep each other directly.
As an e1s1 Jade haver I've got pure fiction essentially handled, so I do think Rappa will be skip for me. I will say that I LOVE the exo-toughness mechanic. I've been asking for something like this since the game launched. It really made my Himeko superbreak team (or as I like to call it "firefly at home") pop off this MoC. Excited to see how common it will be in the future and if they build upon it.
I love her weird personality and animations, but until we get another super break support I just dont see the point as a Firefly haver. I've only got one HMC to pair with them.
my E1 ruan mei has been waiting for a fun break DPS to be paired with :D finally she arrived! I really don't find firefly fun, and not a big fan of mecha, I do like boothill but I don't need more single target DPses, and the only mode I struggle in is always PF :D
I will go for fugue, hopefully she will boost my FF to beat hoolay bose. Also fugue can make ff playable on PF so its a win win situation. While. Rappa cant beat hoolay and only best on PF. Fugue is basically jiaqiu for FF
After seeing this video I decided to try her since I don't have a break dps, I immediately got her in the first ten pull so thats fun. I almost became the 99.9% of gamblers...
I get its hard to do damage calcs for a unit like this, but how big is the difference between sig and clamour or charmony fall? I’m going for aventurine too so I don’t plan on pulling the cone but I want to know how much I’ll be missing. Maybe by comparison to previous signatures?
Personally, I have plenty of erudition characters and I’m not really excited for Rappa because I simply don’t know enough about her. I’m also super excited for Sunday so I’m less inclined to pull for Rappa.
Damn... Seems like it'll be hard to play Rappa and Firefly in each side of MoC/PF/AS at the same time OTL I'll still pull Rappa but I never thought about her team options until now lol
@@guobacertified Given the Galaxy Rangers' liking for Break-related mechanics so far, we can only hope one of them will eventually be a break support 🙏
Thanks a lot for the video Guoba! I cannot wait to play Rappa n_n Does only having S4 DDD change anything on its value? Been thinking it of building it for a while and I guess doing it for HMC on Pure Fiction would be a plan.
I still dont know if i should pull Rappa or not because, every showcase so far has either enemies with Imaginary weakness, with moc buff, or with 5 stars and 5 star LC. I really hope someone makes a showcase with 4 star characters, 4 star LC, and no Imaginary weakness
This vid has a 0 Cycle with 4* Charmony Cone (vs Past Present Boss), and it has her beating PF with non imaginary weak. I say in the vid as well that she cant do well vs non Ima weak MOC/AS but can vs non Ima weak PF.
I really need your opinion I have the premium fexiao follow up team being f2p I tried to pull for ruan mein 2 times and lost both of them I find rappa promising Tell me should i pull for rappa cuz it's guaranteed or should i save for sunday.
other than FART what is your 2nd comp? in meta sense rappa is a good pull if you dont have any of PF trinity (himeko, jade, argenti). Ruan mei isnt a must because hmc + gallagher will be enough for her comp in PF based on leak sunday is a summon forwarder, so he looks like the support for 3.x and work wonderfull if you have the summoner already (topaz, JY, lingsha)
Hey Guoba! Just wanted to ask, I'm a huge fan of Rappa and want to invest into her. I'm a light spender and will definitely have enough for 2.7 and such, but if I were to pull for Eidolons would you say E1 or E2 are the stopping points for Eidolons? I can easily afford either one, just would like to hear your insight.
E2 helps a lot into single target but isnt doing much in PF so if you want some help in MOC/AS you can go for that maybe? Otherwise can stick with E1 for DMG/Utility in one
The next character I really want and she runs with the character I most regret not using a Garuntee on… and I have that garuntee again. Goodbye, Rappa, can’t pass up Acheron again
Interesting! Sadly I'm saving everything rn to pull as many Firefly's whenever she reruns (I have just over 300 pulls currently) so I won't be pulling, but I might in the future on a rerun... After I get Ruan Mei for my Firefly that is lol
I am actually a little tempted to pull now but I still want to save for a potential Firefly rerun because I already have the rest of the superbreak team. Still, great video.
that's the position I'm in rn too. I don't have either firefly or boothill so Rappa would be decent for me. Just not sure if waiting for firefly would be better than getting rappa.
@@JohnDiggle21 Its really up to you but in terms of meta i would definitely consider pulling Rappa over firefly, most people who already have firefly are chilling because they do about the same thing, but if you dont have either and can only choose one, pick rappa any day. As for BH, its really up to you. he doesn't require super break and is more high ceiling, low floor character.
Depends rappa with ting will probably clear faster if they are img weak. However FF will clear faster if the enemy is weak to fire or doesn't have img/fire weakness due to having a implant unlike rapppa. Ultimately I would wait for dreams to see how rappa preforms with tingyun. Conclusion: get tingyun 😂 @JohnDiggle21
@@Tam-lv1mp why would you say Rappa is better if you have none? Isn't Firefly gimmick of implanting her elements kinda her strenght, so if you'd have to choose one I guess one would pick the most versatile (Firefly)? I'm legit asking 'cause I'm the same position as OP and curious
The thing about her being good on-element in two modes is that we already HAVE a good free unit of the same element who uses the same rest of team in March's Hunt form - and one that also acts as a pseudo-fire unit at that. The real question is how much better or worse Rappa is compared to break March for both Imaginary weak and Fire weak stages - although testing the latter would require waiting for the AS rotation several days into the next patch and hoping that the next round contains a boss that has a Fire weakness and does not have an Imaginary one.
@@IdeasAreBulletproof The benefit March has over Rappa in most cases is the fact that she can grab Fire toughness damage from Gallagher or Lingsha, effectively making her an Imaginary and Fire type at the same time.
I’m so conflicted about whether or not to pull for her. I don’t have a break DPS yet and she’s really cool, and PF is the game mode I have the most trouble with, but Sunday will be an absolute must pull for me. If I win the 50/50 I would probably have enough left for Sunday, but I’m not sure.
If you don't care about Fugue, then you can give the 50/50 a try, and stop if you lose. Don't forget you have the whole Sunday banner to get the pulls. No need to pull a character day 1. I pulled Rappa (140 to get her) not because I needed her, but because she looks awesome. Gave up on my S1 plans though, because of bad luck on character banner, but she should be fine anyway.
i pulled for her. She's hella cool also something i feel that gets lost in translation or whatever... But fromm what i can tell it's that she spends chroma ink after every turn (so every turn that she spends 3 enhanced attacks) and not really after every enhanced attack as far as i can tell.
Hello Guoba!!! I have a question. How many theoretical actions could Rappa get within the first cycle if you were to use her "No action instant ult" cook while also maximizing her light cone, as you describe in your build guide? I have been fiddling around with the idea myself: I can reliably get 5 actions with Rappa + break rope (2 enhanced basics at the start --> DDD --> Last enhanced basic --> Skill (get ult here) --> Ult for one more enhanced basic) I can get 6 actions with Rappa + ER rope (2 enhanced basics at the start --> DDD --> Last enhanced basic --> Ult on Rappa for 2 more enhanced basics --> DDD --> one more enhanced basic) The team is Rappa with Sig and 4 piece Thief, Trailblazer has DDD, Ruan mei with Sig, and Gallagher. This was all done in Pure Fiction first half (I can't bother to constantly finish the first half to get access to the on-element side for Rappa), mostly because I want her to be my Pure Fiction carry. I need to know I'm going insane LOL. Sorry for the long comment, but hopefully you see this and can enlighten me. Thank you!!! Love you always ❤
That moment when you've been playing since the first day the game came out and you only have s1 make the world clamor 👁️🗨️👄👁️🗨️(luckily got a charmony copy from standard with the 5 monthly reset)
I got Lucky to get Rappa on some "let's try it out lol just a few wish" and i have a question, i do'nt have Ruan mei, I do have Lingsha tho ! if i have Jiaoqu, can he be in her team as a debuffer ? Or is Bronya the other good alternative ?
I pulled her E2 eventhough I have Firefly/Feixiao E2 Reason why - (leak) Fugue E1 is coming - I've already had Ruan mei E2/ Lingsha E1 Now I play her, not see any problem with "cant put imaginary weakness" on enemy ^^
I really love her animations and I'd love to have her, but it's be overkill since I already have C2R1 Acheron and C1R1 FF (planning on C2). And this timing is tragic since I'm planning on getting both Sunday and Fugue who are the next patch.
it be funny if you used the Rappa guoba model on your next boothill video since you used the boothill one for this one as a like reference to this video
I really want to split HarmMC and Ruan Mei into two teams… Need to find a Super Break focus DPS to do that and maybe I’ll get Firefly on her rerun if she does that (Firefly/Himeko/Ruan Mei/Gallagher)
great vid! can u aid me in my issue i started the game 2 months ago and my FuA team is almost complete. I'd like to build break team but i only own gallagher e1 and harmony mc. Just lost 50 50 on lingsha and feeling salty. Any suggestions at this point of time on the building break ? or should i not bother about break? i need second team badly
What are your thoughts on Rappa? Any Pullers? :D

I wish you luck getting her 🥳🥳🥳
I'm going for her as well :3
GL!
My account has mostly “meta” characters but Rappa is really interesting. Questioning whether or not to get her or Aventurine. Good Luck on your pulls.
@@ThepursuitofHappiness-fb8iyloss but okay. Let them like someone that doesn’t have to be meta 😂
Damn that is the same as me!!
Underrated characters just fall into my lap LOL 😂
I am so getting her and her sig. The 4 turn 1st cycle build sounds extremely fun to use.
Nice unit! Wake me up when Sunday comes out
Stay sleep in ena's dream
definitely a rerun target for me atm, too bad she's right before Fugue banner so....
can't wait to suffer in Pure Fiction later
I'll get her on a rerun. Saving for Aventurine to finish off my Feixiao team. I comfortably clear everything so I'm good right now.
Wow this kit is actually really cool… darn shame they are imaginary by far the most oversaturated element.
Already the only content I struggle with is when imaginary resistance is crazy high, so I think I gotta skip.
They gotta chill on imaginary lmao, ice units please
That said, she's the first female limited Imaginary unit, so there's that!
@@guobacertified its insane how on release only welt was imaginary, but now they have the most 5 stars (8 counting harmony mc)
It only has 9 characters lol, fire and physical both have more and everything else is 9 or less
@@abserd01 I think they're referring to limited characters. Imaginary has 5 and will soon have 6 with Sunday.
Physical 4 and Fire 4 - 5 with Fugue.
That and we're getting two new Imaginary characters back to back with Rappa and Sunday.
Meanwhile Ice has a whopping 2.
I pulled her and kudu conflicted with cones. Thanks!
Fantastic video, thanks for all of the amazing commentary (as always), Guoba :D absolutely love all the ideas you poured into this video. Out of curiosity, did you consider Another Peaceful Day for an LC? Does it not work with Superbreak, or just lose out to the Energy options?
rappa wouldve been cool... but she had the unfortunate fate of being in a banner with aventurine AND ACHERON... the best sustain and the best dps pretty much makes sure rappa wont have a chance to shine
Aven and acheron is phase 2, phase 1 is Rappa and Dan heng
@@bluiixmoon6966 Yes, which means.. people will save for Phase 2. That's their point.
@@MrInsiipid bold of you to assume they won't wait for 2.7
Boy am I glad I hate Aventurine, Rappa looks hella enjoyable!
As a wise man once said, DPS's come and go, but Harmonies are forever. 2.7 it is.
Let's just hope we find some more units for Sparkle.
It's weird that you have to say that on a guide video but you do you, mate.
@@sense6472 nope, nothing weird at all. Guoba asked about people's thoughts in the pinned comment.
Your passing remark was pretty dumb, so I'll leave it at that.
@@skadi5196no, he's right. It's weird that in a guide video, where, obviously, you mean to build a character, you're saying you're going to skip her.
Also, why did you call bro dumb? He just pointed that he find it weird...
Not to say that DPS can come and go, but fuck it. If you like the character, then whatever just get it.
@@Yae_is_just_better yo, you high or something ?
There is a significant part of the video where he explains what Rappa's kit does, and he shares his own thoughts on her.
I watched the video, saw what she did, and came to the conclusion that going for the harmony(Sunday) in 2.7 is more valuable for me.
This is in response to Guoba asking what my thoughts on Rappa were IN THE PINNED COMMENT. If my thought is I'm skipping her, this is the right place to mention it.
Finding my personal thought on Rappa weird is ridiculous. It has nothing to do with you or anyone else.
It almost seems like you're bothered that I don't find Rappa as valuable as you do. Absolute kindergarten behavior.
Dumb, stupid or idiotic. All or any of these apply.
Rappa is in warp rn! good luck guys!!
Love your videos, keep up the great work! Also is s1 charmony fall better then s5 herta lc?
Guoba double upload we are eating good today 🎉🎉🎉
EDIT: Actually it is TRIPLE
I caved after seeing her in-game, and caved, so here I am watching a guide on how to build/play her, while farming for her xD
If I didn't need Acheron's LC and Aventurine YESTERDAY, I'd pull for her, because I need more PF units. My Argenti, Herta and Himeko already broke their backs carrying PF all this time lol. Oh, and I kinda want Sunday too, so there's that...
Might get her on rerun tho.
Gl on your pulls!
Aventurine doesn’t really need his LC, he has more than enough defense from relics so all it really gives him is a meh buff to his personal damage and a 10% buff to the team’s damage
I love your videos but God, I feel so dizzy trying to digest this one. Once you started talking about special tech you can do with her, I started seeing stars because my brain is too smooth. 😂. I'll have to rewatch this when she releases.
My bad
@@guobacertified oh, I wasn't criticizing you. Solid video. I just need to have the unit and reference this video to make sure I understand what you are explaining.
@@irogt Don't forget you can always fire up her trial run while her banner's active to get a first-hand experience. The skill descriptions are usually more concise too
@@SuspiciousScout Oh for sure. I knew I was pulling for her. But at first the video was just A LOT of info and I had almost nothing in game to fully reference it. It made more sense once she dropped.
Rappa does seem pretty cool and she has some great animations, especially her first person Enhanced Basics, but I really want Sunday. I'm fairly new to this game, and I don't have a 5 star limited Harmony character, and I also just love Sunday's design so I'm definitely gonna pull for him. Rappa got majorly shafted by being put next to both Acheron and Aventurine for the rerunns and Sunday and Tingyun Fugue for the newcomers.
Gl on Sunday !
watched it twice a lot of great info
JUST swipped the LC 30mins before the banner went away. NOTICEABLE difference.
I can't wait for Fugue :3
she might as well be the best erudition unit in the game right now, all thanks to SUPA BREEEAK
(once exo toughness goes away idk, but just the fact she can concentrate that much damage onto a single enemy is already a big plus to me)
Skipping, rolling to E2 Acheron and E1 Aventurine.
Rolling for her in her rerun.
With all the other banners I don’t know if I can get her.
I love her Aesthetic too.. :(
I already have a perfect firefly team so it’s hard to justify over the next 2 units and E2 Acheron.
Plus PF units have been collecting dust in my collection anyways. Argenti hasn’t seen a single end game battle
So amazing. Great guide
Ugh. I get she's amazing and all. I want to pull for her, her JP VA is also Megumi Han (Arima Kana, Shikanoko) but damn i can't justify it being a firefly team haver already :')
Keepin everything for Sunday is hard man >_< all those goat banners in between
I'm a bit sick of characters that need hmc to function, I hope we get a character that can replace them because needing two copies feels really bad, and I'm already having to substitute ruan mei out sometimes with bronya just so I can fill that slot for both teams.
Fugue
Fugue
Fugue
Fugue+just dont run 2 break teams
@@aria83308 We already have 3 Break DPSs and, with Fugue, we'll have 2 Enabler Supports. Why couldn't we run 2 Break teams? I don't want to be forced to use only one of my Break DPSs at a time just because there aren't enough Supports, so it's great that they're releasing more Supports for the same role. Supports hardly powercreep each other directly.
My account doesn't need her, but my heart wants her, lol. Excited for her release!
As an e1s1 Jade haver I've got pure fiction essentially handled, so I do think Rappa will be skip for me. I will say that I LOVE the exo-toughness mechanic. I've been asking for something like this since the game launched. It really made my Himeko superbreak team (or as I like to call it "firefly at home") pop off this MoC. Excited to see how common it will be in the future and if they build upon it.
Rappa's basic attack talent boosts the enhanced version as well, making it more important than the ult I believe
I love her weird personality and animations, but until we get another super break support I just dont see the point as a Firefly haver. I've only got one HMC to pair with them.
December has Super Break support coming and it'll be Rappa's BiS support.
I'm so glad I won the gamble for her.. Now can save for 2.7
Might actually try to pull now!
Exo toughness is good for, hmm
I will keep that in mind for any Future Units🧐
my E1 ruan mei has been waiting for a fun break DPS to be paired with :D finally she arrived! I really don't find firefly fun, and not a big fan of mecha, I do like boothill but I don't need more single target DPses, and the only mode I struggle in is always PF :D
I will go for fugue, hopefully she will boost my FF to beat hoolay bose. Also fugue can make ff playable on PF so its a win win situation. While. Rappa cant beat hoolay and only best on PF. Fugue is basically jiaqiu for FF
After seeing this video I decided to try her since I don't have a break dps, I immediately got her in the first ten pull so thats fun. I almost became the 99.9% of gamblers...
I get its hard to do damage calcs for a unit like this, but how big is the difference between sig and clamour or charmony fall? I’m going for aventurine too so I don’t plan on pulling the cone but I want to know how much I’ll be missing.
Maybe by comparison to previous signatures?
Idk how u calc 50% advance forward, thats a sparke skill for u without the Crit dmg
Looks like Charmony will be her second best, but as it's a newer cone, I doubt many people have it at S5 unfortunately.
Personally, I have plenty of erudition characters and I’m not really excited for Rappa because I simply don’t know enough about her. I’m also super excited for Sunday so I’m less inclined to pull for Rappa.
Was wondering, does every attack of her ukt count as a seperate attack? That could make her + jade REALLY good too
that would be crazy, but probably will work like acheron ult? will have to fight traffic light to see
nope
Damn... Seems like it'll be hard to play Rappa and Firefly in each side of MoC/PF/AS at the same time OTL
I'll still pull Rappa but I never thought about her team options until now lol
Yeah we really need more break supports rather than dps lol
@@guobacertified Given the Galaxy Rangers' liking for Break-related mechanics so far, we can only hope one of them will eventually be a break support 🙏
Great preview, I just can’t wait to pull for her. Do you think it’s also worth to draw Lingsha just for Rappa?
Thanks a lot for the video Guoba! I cannot wait to play Rappa n_n
Does only having S4 DDD change anything on its value? Been thinking it of building it for a while and I guess doing it for HMC on Pure Fiction would be a plan.
You’d need a bit more speed for the 4 actions part
@@guobacertified Thanks!
I still dont know if i should pull Rappa or not because, every showcase so far has either enemies with Imaginary weakness, with moc buff, or with 5 stars and 5 star LC. I really hope someone makes a showcase with 4 star characters, 4 star LC, and no Imaginary weakness
This vid has a 0 Cycle with 4* Charmony Cone (vs Past Present Boss), and it has her beating PF with non imaginary weak. I say in the vid as well that she cant do well vs non Ima weak MOC/AS but can vs non Ima weak PF.
I really need your opinion
I have the premium fexiao follow up team being f2p
I tried to pull for ruan mein 2 times and lost both of them
I find rappa promising
Tell me should i pull for rappa cuz it's guaranteed or should i save for sunday.
other than FART what is your 2nd comp?
in meta sense rappa is a good pull if you dont have any of PF trinity (himeko, jade, argenti). Ruan mei isnt a must because hmc + gallagher will be enough for her comp in PF
based on leak sunday is a summon forwarder, so he looks like the support for 3.x and work wonderfull if you have the summoner already (topaz, JY, lingsha)
Since I got Jade e1 s1 I will never need another erudition 5 star ever again she Just rocks every mode 😊
Hey Guoba! Just wanted to ask, I'm a huge fan of Rappa and want to invest into her. I'm a light spender and will definitely have enough for 2.7 and such, but if I were to pull for Eidolons would you say E1 or E2 are the stopping points for Eidolons? I can easily afford either one, just would like to hear your insight.
E2 helps a lot into single target but isnt doing much in PF so if you want some help in MOC/AS you can go for that maybe? Otherwise can stick with E1 for DMG/Utility in one
The next character I really want and she runs with the character I most regret not using a Garuntee on… and I have that garuntee again. Goodbye, Rappa, can’t pass up Acheron again
Interesting! Sadly I'm saving everything rn to pull as many Firefly's whenever she reruns (I have just over 300 pulls currently) so I won't be pulling, but I might in the future on a rerun... After I get Ruan Mei for my Firefly that is lol
She actually not bad and I love her animation/effects but man I need Tingyun(Fugue) and Herta 5 star soon
I am actually a little tempted to pull now but I still want to save for a potential Firefly rerun because I already have the rest of the superbreak team.
Still, great video.
that's the position I'm in rn too. I don't have either firefly or boothill so Rappa would be decent for me. Just not sure if waiting for firefly would be better than getting rappa.
@@JohnDiggle21 Its really up to you but in terms of meta i would definitely consider pulling Rappa over firefly, most people who already have firefly are chilling because they do about the same thing, but if you dont have either and can only choose one, pick rappa any day. As for BH, its really up to you. he doesn't require super break and is more high ceiling, low floor character.
Depends rappa with ting will probably clear faster if they are img weak. However FF will clear faster if the enemy is weak to fire or doesn't have img/fire weakness due to having a implant unlike rapppa.
Ultimately I would wait for dreams to see how rappa preforms with tingyun.
Conclusion: get tingyun 😂
@JohnDiggle21
@@Tam-lv1mp why would you say Rappa is better if you have none? Isn't Firefly gimmick of implanting her elements kinda her strenght, so if you'd have to choose one I guess one would pick the most versatile (Firefly)?
I'm legit asking 'cause I'm the same position as OP and curious
Do you have good Erudition unit? Just pull for her if you don’t have Firefly yet. I think she will be equal like Firefly.
I want to try to make a super break team work, but getting HMC eidolins are such a pain in the ass.
The thing about her being good on-element in two modes is that we already HAVE a good free unit of the same element who uses the same rest of team in March's Hunt form - and one that also acts as a pseudo-fire unit at that. The real question is how much better or worse Rappa is compared to break March for both Imaginary weak and Fire weak stages - although testing the latter would require waiting for the AS rotation several days into the next patch and hoping that the next round contains a boss that has a Fire weakness and does not have an Imaginary one.
Break March is great. I imagine they're comparable in AS and MoC, though Rappa will pull ahead in PF even in non Imaginary weak content.
I think March is probably comparable in Rappa's worst case Scneario, otherwise I see Rappa Ahead
@@IdeasAreBulletproof The benefit March has over Rappa in most cases is the fact that she can grab Fire toughness damage from Gallagher or Lingsha, effectively making her an Imaginary and Fire type at the same time.
Your videos butter My biscuits thank you 🗣️
Rappa will be mine! Sunday only if I get lucky
I’m so conflicted about whether or not to pull for her. I don’t have a break DPS yet and she’s really cool, and PF is the game mode I have the most trouble with, but Sunday will be an absolute must pull for me. If I win the 50/50 I would probably have enough left for Sunday, but I’m not sure.
If you don't care about Fugue, then you can give the 50/50 a try, and stop if you lose. Don't forget you have the whole Sunday banner to get the pulls. No need to pull a character day 1. I pulled Rappa (140 to get her) not because I needed her, but because she looks awesome. Gave up on my S1 plans though, because of bad luck on character banner, but she should be fine anyway.
well if u dont have a break DPS u could pull for her, that is if u want to do the harder content .
Just got Rappa on a 10 pull 0 pity on a 4 5050 Win streak , going for aventurine now
Uhh that light cone looks ridiculous. I wonder how it works on other units…
Omg I have a break wind set 7:28 I’m so hype
Guess she is gonna love tingyun
My S2 Firefly would never let me cheat on her 😤
i pulled for her. She's hella cool also something i feel that gets lost in translation or whatever... But fromm what i can tell it's that she spends chroma ink after every turn (so every turn that she spends 3 enhanced attacks) and not really after every enhanced attack as far as i can tell.
I want her but if I end up missing AV then I will commit murder, currently 80 pulls at 50/50 so I will be a good boy
Hello Guoba!!! I have a question. How many theoretical actions could Rappa get within the first cycle if you were to use her "No action instant ult" cook while also maximizing her light cone, as you describe in your build guide?
I have been fiddling around with the idea myself:
I can reliably get 5 actions with Rappa + break rope (2 enhanced basics at the start --> DDD --> Last enhanced basic --> Skill (get ult here) --> Ult for one more enhanced basic)
I can get 6 actions with Rappa + ER rope (2 enhanced basics at the start --> DDD --> Last enhanced basic --> Ult on Rappa for 2 more enhanced basics --> DDD --> one more enhanced basic)
The team is Rappa with Sig and 4 piece Thief, Trailblazer has DDD, Ruan mei with Sig, and Gallagher. This was all done in Pure Fiction first half (I can't bother to constantly finish the first half to get access to the on-element side for Rappa), mostly because I want her to be my Pure Fiction carry. I need to know I'm going insane LOL.
Sorry for the long comment, but hopefully you see this and can enlighten me. Thank you!!! Love you always ❤
That moment when you've been playing since the first day the game came out and you only have s1 make the world clamor 👁️🗨️👄👁️🗨️(luckily got a charmony copy from standard with the 5 monthly reset)
I got Lucky to get Rappa on some "let's try it out lol just a few wish" and i have a question, i do'nt have Ruan mei, I do have Lingsha tho ! if i have Jiaoqu, can he be in her team as a debuffer ? Or is Bronya the other good alternative ?
I pulled her E2 eventhough I have Firefly/Feixiao E2
Reason why
- (leak) Fugue E1 is coming
- I've already had Ruan mei E2/ Lingsha E1
Now I play her, not see any problem with "cant put imaginary weakness" on enemy ^^
I really love her animations and I'd love to have her, but it's be overkill since I already have C2R1 Acheron and C1R1 FF (planning on C2).
And this timing is tragic since I'm planning on getting both Sunday and Fugue who are the next patch.
for speed, when you say "pre RM" do you mean slower than RM?
As in her speed prior to Ruan Mei passive buff, not necessarily slower than Ruan Mei
@@VioletSavior appreciate it
it be funny if you used the Rappa guoba model on your next boothill video since you used the boothill one for this one as a like reference to this video
My rigger is still very busy :') Ill just prioritize fugue and sunday
@@guobacertified completely fair and understandable. I'm very excited to see them ^_^
I really want to split HarmMC and Ruan Mei into two teams… Need to find a Super Break focus DPS to do that and maybe I’ll get Firefly on her rerun if she does that (Firefly/Himeko/Ruan Mei/Gallagher)
great vid! can u aid me in my issue i started the game 2 months ago and my FuA team is almost complete. I'd like to build break team but i only own gallagher e1 and harmony mc. Just lost 50 50 on lingsha and feeling salty. Any suggestions at this point of time on the building break ? or should i not bother about break? i need second team badly
Youll wanna get Ruan Mei next or another break supp if one releases before her, then get Rappa/Boothill/Firefly if you want a break team
@@guobacertified does Fugue count cause im 100% getting her
