Black Swan is worth it... | Honkai Star Rail

[@jampinjax9194]

So to put into Kets language of what Black Swan does: She basically introduces her own Dot which is Arcana, which is a Wind Shear dot but not really. When you inflict your enemies with Arcana, its unremovable. Her basic and skill can give enemies stacks of arcana, and when its the enemies turn, theyll get arcana damage, just like how wind shears work. When you have 3 stacks, it does a blast attack. When you have 7 stacks, it ignores Def when detonated. However, when the arcana does detonate, the stacks will go back to 1. Her ult makes it that the stacks dont go away for 1 enemy turn when they detonate, so itll be easier to stack more arcana on their next turn. Units that can detonate Dots manually (Kafka) can add more Arcana stacks. TLDR, Arcana is a better Wind Shear lmao Hopefully this helps!

[@azraeltan1074]

this is actually really helpful, thank you so much!

[@ridewild1956]

It also does all 4 types of dot damage

[@obscurephoenix934]

it looks kinda like mahito's domain expansion. sure hope i wasnt the only one that thought that

[@142crystal]

It's even counted as Wind Shear, so you technically have two DoT's with her.

[@quackyman796]

When I used Kafka on Arcana it didn’t increase the stack. Pretty sure you’re either talking about E6 which makes it so when Allies attack enemy they also gain the ability to inflict stacks of arcana or I’m very very blind

Cant wait for the Kets review on the Penacony story, the ending is really wholesome and heartwarming >:)

I am in the part where you get saved by black swan, really loved the story with firefly, probably will have to fight her since she is a stelaron hunter, but the part with her i loved it, she became one of the most loved characters for me.

Those pulls were painful. IX betraying their most loyal worshipper. Our man Kets is not ready for Acheron to be right after Sparkle.

[@giftedwindybee7984]

I wanted to pull for sparkle too so i build up my pity on black swan to atleast get misha and pompom went flying to gold so i pulled for her LC got her and her LC in 70 pulls and i have no more + 0 pity so no sparkle for me

[@skyzell5029]

@@blazeyprime4470 Ah please not, I want both of them

[@duckynoodles3560]

I feel like Misha is one of those characters that have potential if build pretty well,also it’s nice to have another ice character that can hit multiple characters at once like Herta. Here’s hoping everyone gets the characters they want from their pulls (I’m on 60 pity and still no black swan…here’s hoping I don’t go into hard pity 😅)

yeah, that's pretty much how my pulls went as well, except I got a new Welt. I was also hoping to save some pulls for Sparkle cause I think mono quantum sounds fun, but I guess I'll have to rely on winning the 50/50 on her banner!

[@panjipewe]

I see so many people lose 50/50 with hard pity... I think.. this is a bad time to pull... And i already won 50/50 5 times in a row... The last time i lose 50/50 is in first kafka banner... - I didn't mean to get Argenti (56 pull), i only wanna make pull close to pity... - I get Jing Liu (81 pull) - I get Fu xuan twice in a row (76 and 20 pull) Than kafka... Yes i won 50/50 in kafka banner, but after i get her, i get himeko in 20 pull in kafka banner so yeah... Atleast i lose in soft pity.. But i lose 70/30 weapon banner in kafka return banner...
