Apparently Jade as a support for Blade is inferior to Ruan Mei and Sparkle, so she falls a bit short even in that aspect.

[@wikidpsycokilla]

Thanks to Acheron, Firefly and Boothill ignoring weakness people have forgotten that you cant really brute force off element anymore. Since the start of 2.0 not even Dhil or Jingliu can comfortably clear when off element for non-whales. The current moc is tailored to fire, imaginary and lightning break, so its no surprise Jade doesnt do well there. Wait until the bug or the deer make an appearance, Jades kit is specifically designed to counter fights like those.

[@FonKard]

What do you mean lol, DHIL easily brute forces any content ig

[@wikidpsycokilla]

E0 with average relics he absolutely struggles off element. If he didn't his usage rate wouldn't have dropped off a cliff, you rarely ever see anyone use him without e2s1.

[@korosensei1325]

I can only brute force w my jing liu and thats only cause shes e2 s1 with pretty good relics, and even then its sub obtimal brute forcing. People are sleeping on jade for now but wait till theres a fight that favors her

[@TigrexThrasher]

Exactly.

[@Aphyros]

Hilariously enough, Jade is great at brute forcing Past, Present and Eternal Show because it's an AoE-friendly boss with shared health. She is probably one of the best DPS that isn't on-element for fighting it.

It's another Topaz situation, people will start complaining about other ccs using Jade for PF clears. People just want 100 MoC characters, but don't realise that PF literally gives the same amount of stellar jades.

Tbh I wouldn't be surprised if they made PF harder in the future to where characters that aren't dedicated AoE really struggle. Either way u don't need Jade but she's not really bad value if you're struggling to clear that type of end game. If you don't wanna pull Jade other substitutes that are F2P accessible are Herta, Himeko, and Serval.

[@Andychiu845]

Yeah the current reason why people dont like jade is you can sort of make jingliu or any destruction work in pf by getting 30k/40k. But people have no problem pulling for boothill who is miserable in pf

[@RogerNbr]

honestly jade is really good at pf, blade jade cleared side 1 w the same score as himeko herta on side 2 so if you dont already have a strong second team besides himeko herta shes a extremely solid pull

[@winstongutual]

@@Andychiu845 probably because boothill is good in moc and as? jade is op in pure fiction but outside of it, jade suffers. a lot. even if they make the moc quantum weak and have bosses who can spawn mobs, jade is still not gonna get even near boothill, dhil, kafka. boothill just holds more value, pure fiction can make use of 4 stars anyway and get high score unlike moc and as. (moc and as can also have 4 stars but i meant that in pure fiction, you dont need as much investment on ur characters and get a decent amount of score)

[@hosamx1465]

When that time comes surely there will be stronger AoE dps

[@Yachii]

I want her but her 4 stars don't make me want to pull.

[@yolkkyz]

Its abit weird that PF is literally as important as MOC and AS but people complains about Jade that "omg this aoe character is made for an aoe end game" and i have seen so many people complained about can't clearing PF too like huh? If you're looking for an moc unit then literally roll anybody else it's like someone complaining that Boothill isn't good because he's bad in PF

[@Accountthatexists]

But I think it's cause she's for PF, and we already have herta for EVERYONE, and she's busted........also there's just alot of good options people have for pf like the DoT chars (beside luka), himeko, argenti, serval, blade, acheron, jingliu........EVERYONE has at least one of those chars, and none of them are as good as jade for PF, but they work GOOD, and it's just better to pull a different char then jade, cause there's already ALOT of PF options,

[@The_CodFish69]

@@Accountthatexists exactly take FF for example she’s already a Queen In MOC and AS but if you have Someone like Himeko and or Herta then she can easily do well in PF especially if you have E2. So then look at Jade who offers nothing outside of PF then what’s the point of pulling on her…

[@dondoodle]

​@The_CodFish69 This is the exactly the point. I have all those characters that clear MoC and also good in PF. Even Kafka and Blackswan DOT work in PF. Jade's value decreased alot because she is way too niche of a character that does mediocre damage. E6 Herta do way more damage than her lol

[@kennethyoung7457]

People just want a dps that is good in all the content we already have good options for PF with Clara, Herta and Himeko but they can suffer in the other modes. When its time to spend jades on a character personally want to know they don't just get benched because its not PF time anymore. No doubt Jade is good for all content and lots of teams though they just locked it behind E1.

[@ahmedmubarak751]

I think these kinda people would've wished that moc wasn't replaced with pf

[@KadeFaolan]

i mean, it's not like you'd have to go all the way to stage 4 or anything. even just up to stage 3 on pure fiction, assuming you 3 star everything which honestly isn't that hard, gives over 500 jades (like 540 i think, might be more). On every single reset along with other clear rewards too. You don't even need to max out traces for the characters so 25 days is just excessive lol

[@WhoStoleMyNachos]

HSR players will spend hours complaining about how bad of a problem powercreep is in the game, and that every new character gets closer and closer to killing the game with how meta they are, and then 3 seconds later complain that a very useful unit with a specific gamemode they excel at doesn’t completely eclipse Acheron and firefly by all conceivable metrics in every gamemode. Make. It. Make. Sense.

[@Madara_Ghost_of_the_Uchiha]

Ill make it make sense. You're talking out your ass making shit up. People never expected jade to quote "Eclipse acheron and firefly". They simply wanted her to excel at pure fiction while still being useful everywhere else. You know... How every other DPS that isn't Hunt path specifically. Jingliu? Excels at moc and at apocalyptic shadows while being ok at pure fiction. Acheron excels everywhere. Firefly excels everywhere but is bad in pure fiction. Himeko excels at pure fiction but is ok everywhere else too. Jade excels at pure fiction but sucks ass everywhere else. Just like Herta. Yet Herta is free with all eidolons and Jade costs up to 180 pulls. Jade literally NEEDS E1 as a LIMITED 5* in 2.3 to compete with Himeko, a standard banner 5* from literally Release. Who you can get guaranteed for practically free after 300 standard pulls if you so desire.

[@churchofthetea4273]

@@Madara_Ghost_of_the_Uchiha except jade is actually useful in this apo shadow just cause you have to hit a lot of enemies and cocolia has quantum weakness as well if the mechanic changes she wont be as useful but if there are at least 3 enemies or enemies that summon then she will be useful (that's like every content btw) its objectively wrong to say she's as good as herta cause herta 's follow up against a big enemy is once if it doesnt summon jade can fa with the ratio(everyone has him) i agree it takes relatively long without s1 but the simple fact that she can fa again makes her better than herta not to mention she has buffs for your dps which again makes her way better than herta she's lackluster in single target and its intended but that doesnt make her bad

​@@hypemaddox well literally every end game content can be cleared with budget teams lol, id rather spend jades on jade (lol) who will is incredibly powerful in PF and be able to clear it with no issues rather than pull another unit designed for MoC since I have never struggled with MoC but usually struggle with PF.

[@hypemaddox]

@@haloman12378 Personally the units I got for free have done the job for me, I dont see the point in spending 180 pulls for a singular game mode I have never struggled in or ever seen any difficulty spike. Himeko literally can break now simply by having firefly on the team and I also now have a busted unit for MOC and AS 180 pulls with 1 unit boosts me in all 3 gamemodes. Herta just throw on a team of her own with my supports and boom side 2. Pull acheron and go sustainless with DOT team. My issue is that PF has never been a none issues cause usually you already have more than enough shit to clear it and usually whatever I pull for MOC or AS has an additional effect for me in pure fiction. Having one character that excels in that game mode and is just mediocre in the others doesnt sit right with me as f2p

[@Morkins324]

Anecdote Related to This: TLDR; I didn't play for a year and Jade just instantly brought my account to a level where I am close to full clearing PF. I had stopped playing HSR during 1.0 when I was TL30. I always knew that I would come back to it, but the content that was present in 1.0 wasn't grabbing me and I was playing other games. So, I did what I frequently do with Hoyoverse games, I put it down and waited for them to add a year or more worth of content. I came back to the game just before 2.3 launched. I picked up Fu Xuan to supplement the Jing Yuan, Himeko, Clara, and Seele that I had on my account from when I played at launch. Then, when 2.3 came out, I got E2S1 Firefly and E2S1 Ruan Mei (I am not F2P). I grinded through all of the backlog content, used my resources to build up my Firefly team as much as possible and got a very strong team that can clear basically any content that I put in front of it. Hit TL60 as soon as possible and have that team 90% built, though my Relics aren't flawless and I will need to revisit them to finish off the Skills/Traces. Still, they are most of the way built. Now I am in a position where I need to start thinking about a second team. I already have several decent FUA units like Himeko and Clara (plus Herta as a 4 Star), so Jade works well with those units (Jing Yuan is even semi-reasonable with Jade). The one mode that the Firefly team doesn't absolutely demolish is Pure Fiction (though definitely puts me in the 20k - 25k point range easy, so a second team getting 35k - 40k will full clear). And investing heavily into building Jing Yuan or Seele to do Apocalytic Shadow and/or MoC seems less appealing as Relics are by far my account's weakest aspect (I quit before getting to Relic grind at launch, so I basically started working on my Relics 2-5 weeks ago considering the time it took to get up for TL50 from TL30 where I started) and both of them have pretty rough Relic/Trace investment requirements to be reasonable for clearing current AS or MoC. So, I pulled E0S1 for Jade (tried for E1 to open up future Team Comp options, but lost the 50/50 and I'm done chasing it. I can get her on Rerun if I get Topaz in future). My Himeko, Herta and Jade are barely even built with bad Relics, minimally leveled Skills/Traces and not even Lvl 80, but throwing them together with the units from my Firefly team plus my Fu Xuan (Her and Gallagher are the only viable sustains that I have right now), I was instantly able to get 11/12 Stars on Pure Fiction and I'm like 1000 points away from 60k on PF4. By the end of this patch, I feel like I will probably have Himeko, Herta and Jade decently built (Jade actually is already pretty close to built, though a Quantum Sphere is needed and my relics are pretty marginal and will need to be upgraded eventually) and may be able to get my 12/12 in Pure Fiction. And for 2.4 + 2.5, I have a decent idea of where to focus next. Huohuo is probably being rerun in 2.4 and I need to get her as another Sustain option for when Fu Xuan and Gallagher aren't ideal (Debuff Cleansing has been an issue, though I don't yet know how much Fu Xuan's A6 Trace will help with that since I have needed to use my Echo of War runs to get my Firefly team built and I only hit TL60 earlier this week to finally get Fu Xuan that last ascension to even unlock it). Black Swan is also rumored to be the other 2.4 Rerun and she seems like a reasonable pickup to start a DOT team (Kafka possibly being rerun in 2.5 to fill out that team). Yunli and Jiaoqiu are both likely skips for me. Not entirely sure about 2.5, but Lingsha is rumored and seems like she might upgrade over Gallagher. It'll be something I need to think about, as Gallagher is really strong. But, I think my main focus is going to be on hitting the reruns to try to get a solid DOT team.

[@Morkins324]

Update: Another day of skill investment and improving my Herta/Himeko slightly and I just got my 12/12 in Pure Fiction. Jade easily carried to 40k on her side when paired with Herta. My Herta still kind of sucks BTW.

[@AutumnsHollow]

I think a lot of the community underestimate her and are letting things outside of the game alter their perception of her. I know there’s been a lot of silly drama over Jade involving Topaz and Aventurine. I tried her in every piece of content and she actually really surprised me. I expected her to be pathetic in apocalyptic shadow and memory of chaos because of the constant negativity around her but she actually put out respectable numbers. She did perfectly fine. She’s the queen of PF but she isn’t bad at the other game modes. It incentivized me to get her E1 and S1 and I’m personally very happy with Jade. I think a lot of the community is an echo chamber and tend to overlook certain things. I’m not a whale and only get the battle pass and daily pass. I to this day don’t have himeko as a day 1 player. To get himeko I have to lose my 50/50 in the limited banner and get her out of 7 standard banner characters. Or get lucky and get her out of 14 possible results from the standard banner. Unless you spend a lot or get lucky you probably aren’t getting himeko like me. Jade has a lot of value for people in similar situations and newer accounts. if you invest and get her E1S1 she gets amazing imo. I love playing her with Topaz, and Aventurine! I think it’s okay and healthy for this game to have specialist characters. Imo the I can do it all characters akin to Acheron are unhealthy and skew balance in a very bad way because they’re broken damage wise and content will be balanced around said character. So players without them are screwed.

[@IdeasAreBulletproof]

Yeah she's actually quite decent, I'm not really pulling her as I kind of want Yunli more and getting 1 copy and 1 Lightcone is easier with the pulls (Especially since I have 50 pity on the LC banner but 0 Pity on the Character banner) I have then getting 2 copies of a Character, but when Jade does rerun I Intend on E1S1ing her, & I do think she's basically a AOE Topaz, bound to get her Ratio like Synergy before we know it, and FUA is the funnest Architype.

[@ch1dd]

@@IdeasAreBulletproof I pulled her to use with Yunli and other future AoE counter units aside from the usual synergies, because that's where the real potential is for attack frequency: using the enemy turns against them on top of the team actions. FUA is one of the most cracked mechanics in the game, people are definitely shortsighted about it still.

[@winstongutual]

the problem with jade is that without her e1, she's pretty much screwed outside of pure fiction unless you have some godlike relics with teammates who also has godlike relics. so why spend 180 pulls (if you even win both 50/50) if you can just pull a f2p character who doesn't need eidolons or lightcones to be great in ALL gamemodes?

[@ch1dd]

@@winstongutual My dude. Her damage is fully AoE, and so is Herta's who is usually paired with her, she's not screwed as the enemies will have the hp depleted at the same time. It's fail-proof design any time you're not trying to bruteforce her or her team setup. Look at the quantum enemies we have that are expected to bring her into: the Swarm, Abundant Deer, Dunn, Cocolia, and so on. Do you realize they're all AoE content being outside of PF? Don't you see hunt players complaining there's too much AoE in the game? She's great in all gamemodes. This is what people have been sleeping on about AoE characters for an entire year.

[@Jabari98]

If Jade was released pre-PF, I'd agree with the negative sentiment. But she'll be just fine right now. There's nothing wrong w/ characters having a niche if they excel at it better than anyone else. If it wasn't for modes like PF, Herta and Himeko's true strength in their specific niche would've never been worth utilizing. Jade is gonna be fine in the long run(though I'd def recommend getting her E1 if you want to use her outside of PF).

[@thatokperson]

I do think there's a problem with limiting where a character can be used behind an e1. The same way you say "I'd recommend you getting E1", I'd give the advice I recommend you skip Jade and pull 2 units you can actually use where you want to

[@Jabari98]

@@thatokperson That's perfectly fair

[@AuronGaming]

I pulled Jade specifically for pure fiction so I agree with you. Right now I can only easily clear pure fiction during the dot rotations (yes, I'm a nihility fan), so it made sense for me to pull for Jade. I don't want to keep resetting pure fiction during the follow up attack rotations so she's a no brainer for me.

[@knmrt2760]

Same ! I usually have a miserable time when the buffs in PF heavily favour FUA units because I don't have any built one outside Herta and I'm glad Jade fits that purpose perfectly...

jade is definitely a god in pure fiction and that's valid to have a character that excels in that, i think the reason why everybody is miffed because she could easily be usable in moc if her e1 was part of her base kit or something, it just seems like an incredibly obvious spending bait that feels lowbrow for mihoyo. as it stands at e0, she's usable in 1/3 out of replenishing endgame modes and that isn't compelling enough for most people. i'd say most other characters are at a 2/3 with investment and the OP characters can be used in all modes

[@edgarahcow7748]

Personally I also find her more than usable for AS, as a sub dps and using a Destruction Dps, Balde is the obvioud choice. But Clara, Acheron as the Nihility option (even when not using a second Nihility without E2), well played even Jingliu sounds like an option. A super perfect synergistic team is not always needed, and it definitely can help you clear the endgame content. Not to mention she is great for farming, for messing around in Simulated universe even making endgame runs on the three modes of it. People simpm expect every new character to make the last one useless en comparison, and then complain because that happened

Your point about Jade not double dipping into PF and other modes is exactly the reason why I consider her bad (at least for my account).

[@AdamJorgensen]

Yup, pretty much

[@thisisaname2250]

The problem is she's super amazing at Pure Fiction sure, but clearing Pure Fiction is already pretty easy with units like Acheron or Firefly or Argenti or Himeko and Herta. So what's the point in getting this hyper specific Pure Fiction monster when most people have been dealing with Pure Fiction already with one of their answers? Most people probably have a Himeko if they've been playing since launch (again MOST people no everyone), meanwhile EVERYONE has an E5-E6 Herta since they're given to you for free. So what does Jade realistically offer you that you need besides mommy dommy bait. Overall point, if you like the characters than pull for them. In the word's of Silver Wolf "Dont hesitate. Just pull. If ur asking, u want it.". But if youre looking for a meta defining unit in the way that Acheron and Firefly are, who are great in MOC and Pure Fiction and Apocalyptic Shadow, then you can look elsewhere.

The difference is that the current best PF units are already non-limited ones in Herta and Himeko, so most people can clear the game mode with what you're already getting inevitably just by playing the game. You don't have the same luxury for MoC and AS.

[@Jackie_Tikki_Tavi]

Me, day 1 player and Himeko-less T.T

[@afish4583]

As en erudition main himeko is very reliant on breaking,or you want himeko x herta. Jades value is that she can make any other erudition character shine with similar synergy. Often times you’re using himeko and herta together, besides argenti (who most don’t have), every other erudition character needs help in PF that Jade can contribute to

[@sf4603]

Also her having a drain and Himeko having a buff thats only active when shes above 80% is a bit of a weird anti-synergy. Aventurine is the premium FuA sustain and he can't heal so you can make 10 attacks with Himeko before it becomes a problem. I dont really know how many times Himeko attacks in a PF run on average but her Ults and FuA are frequent enough that you're probably losing that buff at some point near the end. I don't think its the worst thing in the world and you can always just run Abundance instead but its a little bit of friction in the Jade + Himeko comp that doesn't exist in the Jade + Herta comp for example. Jade + Herta might actually just go sustainless tbh with Robin + RM for example

[@kennethyoung7457]

Not to mention its not like Jade is automatic win button you still have to build her just like Herta and Himeko or Clara before she does the work.

[@yysn6404]

​@@kennethyoung7457she gets lots of crit dmg for free with traces, has good f2p lc options, you only try to get as much crit rate as possible (with quantum set or fua set) and that's it, no crazy stats

[@eddiemate]

Yeah, I found it confusing why everyone was so upset at Jade not being good outside PF. Like, yes that is why I’m deciding not to pull for her since I currently have a 50/50 loss from going for Firefly E2 (actually giving me my Himeko finally, funnily enough) and I think some rerun options are more important despite not having good PF runs (as well as MoC)… but I’ve seen her in action. In her preferred gamemode, she’s incredible. I even plan to get her on rerun at some point because of that. But yeah, it’s funny how everyone complains about power creep then the moment Hoyo goes against that to create a character that doesn’t do everything, suddenly it’s all "wtf why is she shit". If you’re that desperate to use her anywhere, go for E1.

[@Rinkha_ow]

I mean now that we have 3 end game modes, each of them are as important as the other. So idk why people seem to only hold moc to that standard when u need units for each of those end game modes

[@yuricecconi561]

Probably because it's the most gear and account intensive endgame mode. PF and AS are moreso checks of account diversity.

[@Rinkha_ow]

@@yuricecconi561 checks of account diversity are still a reason to not just write off certain units imo. At the end of the day, each mode takes up the same amount of time in a patch. If ur moc is struggling, pull for characters that do well in moc. Vice versa with Apoc shadow and PF. I’m all about what teams make the modes the most auto-able.

[@chrisryan1501]

[@liliavacyncosplay]

I finally built my Herta and between her, my new Jade, and my E2 Himeko, I got my first 12-star PF run! I also don't have any 5-star Quantum units except Sparkle and Silver Wolf, so I really needed the Quantum damage. She was a perfect pull for my account.

[@beanswater]

Pulled for Jade in my alt precisely because pure fiction is my weakest link in that account. I do understand why people underestimate that mode though, it's super easy if you have the right units, and Himeko+Herta is just a free win on one side so you only need to worry about one other side.

[@knmrt2760]

Some people forget that Himeko isn't a unit you just always happen to get lol... I've been playing since launch and I still do not have a single copy of Himeko... Jade for me is a godsend for my PF needs and bonus pts for having a design that I actually like...

[@beanswater]

@@knmrt2760 Yeah she is, forget about the 300 selector? If you don't have her and chose someone else (like Bronya maybe), then it's your fault. I barely use Bronya nowadays, but Himeko has been in every single one of my PF runs since it got released.

[@Jackie_Tikki_Tavi]

I struggle with PF but i clear it. Yes, Jade is beneficial, but I have Argenti and I need to save. it's not that I wouldn't want her. Thankfully, I think Feixiao will be what I need, and ultimately, she's a character I really want. So yeah, some pain points in PF is worth it

[@humantacos9800]

[@ryanclouse299]

[@fey94]

I think Jade's E1 should have been part of her base kit because it makes her so much more flexible and makes her viable in MoC, apocalyptic and Sim Uni stuff. I love her but I have her at E1 which makes her feel A LOT more different

[@WitchRegen]

She's been a huge boon to my account since Pure Fiction has been a bit of a pain point for me. I can usually still clear with full stars, but it's been a lot more hard-earned than MoC and AS for my account, so Jade has been a breath of fresh air for it.

[@ivemarell]

I hope she ends up like Topaz, I got her to E1S1 just for Dr. Ratio, and oh boy are they so good together

[@MindNoise7]

I did the newest PF (node 1) with my acheron team, it didnt go well. Jade x Clara got the job done. maybe its just me, but having Jade on my account give me more options and comfort for PF. Not to mention, erudition path is just so fun to play.

[@hentikirby7142]

Kafka makes PF free, blade does too under the right circmstances, Acheron can clear moc, herta can clear moc, Seele, Clara (Like blade). There are just a lot of option already. The main problem is jade is only for those who feel like they want to go past that 30k and get full 40k clears. If you finish 12 stars moc and lets say you only have Seele and JL, 2 not so great PF char and is also really good in MOC can clear PF to 60k just fine or even just under 60k in the final level is also fine. At the end of the day, it is almost 100 percent better to just pull a unit that can cover multiple end game content. Pulling for one like this will not allow you to have fun in other end game mode earlier as you have limited resources and less characters you can realistic pull with said limited resource.

[@randomname8066]

on my main account i didn't have any limited 5* supports and my second best main dps was blade so getting jade helped with my blade team and helped me with PF

[@DogiTheWallcrusher]

Jade makes the team so free that I got 35k with her and himeko's team while jade was level 6 on her tracess and didnt have all the outside skills and himeko's traces were untouched because I forgot to level them. This was the first PF I couldn't 60k easily and jade solved that.

[@Grayewicked]

People seem to have forgotten how broken being able to take action outside of your own turn is in a turn-based game.

[@Aemothkas]

The reason why people don’t like it is because of Firefly meta and flexibility. Most players want to most bang for their dollar and Jade is only op in PF.

[@demonend7707]

Totally agree. I can clear any content in the game, but I've always struggled with pf and didn't enjoy it. When I pulled Jade she simplified it so much that, im not getting annoyed at having to do it anymore. She was my pf jesus and made the mode so much more enjoyable.

[@UnbelievableLins]

So, i clear PF with Herta in one team and Himeko in another. Just put random bullshit with them and after few tries they get max rewards. Free units, btw. I can't do this in MOC. Couldn't care less about Jade, couldn't care less about better Clara and male Gufan. E2 Feixiao, I'm saving for you.

[@BaschBarrage]

[@Hnp21]

Tbh I wouldn't oppose the idea of making Pf as hard as Moc so that people actually have incentives to try and pull for Pf units. As of rn, Pf is way too easy compared to Moc and As

[@bakublader1999]

I literally pulled jade with pure fiction in mind. premium FF and acheron teams can clear MOC for me with 5+ cycles left. Meanwhile, I reset multiple times in pure fiction because I usually just barely don't scrape the 60k together. So, why not make it free as hell? I can use herta himeko on one side now and jade + blade (for example) on the other side.

[@narkedtom]

I think the sad reality of HSR endgame is that it’s all about, “do you have the new unit?” And if the answer is no then it’s going to be a struggle. Each new MOC, PF & AS is designed to make the new playable character shine by having enemies weak to their element and the buff being relevant to their kit. I get it for the marketing of each character to help push sales and make players who bought the character feel validated in their purchase but it’s not good for F2P players nor ones that heavily invested in earlier characters that came out in the past. Which personally I think is a shame, as it stops players just playing the characters they want (& pulling for ones they want) and instead have to choose Meta picks instead so they can do the new content that’s available in each patch - because let’s face it, now the Penacony main story is over the next few patches will be a lot dryer so these end game modes will be the main thing players have to look forward to.

[@kevingraham4736]

i mean she is okay :shrug: she just replaces himeko or herta in PF (rip himeko if you cant get breaks). she works in the current MOC because of linked health. can be used in mat farming. but unless you simp the charecter. she isnt worth your saved jades. period.

Good take, some people are definitely still missing the point when I scrolled through the comments, but whatever. Jade does what Jade does, there's no doubt about that. But yall gotta stop telling others to not pull cuz the 'pull value' is terrible, "only good in 1 of 3 modes", nah yall absolutely can't allow people to have fun and enjoy the game in their own ways. "haha easiest skip of my life", no one asked you pal.

[@headshotsimon]

Ive been struggling with PF since day one. I pulled Jade because of that and for the first time since the game mode released I cleared it at 80k points. Jade is good at what she does end of the line.

[@KaosKittyStudios]

I will say, it requires her E1, but with her E1 the characters she combos with, and how good she is outside of pure fiction SKYROCKETS. I got real lucky, E1 in 53 pulls, amd ive been running her in everything for fun, only really hasnt been to good in Apocolyptic shadow for me, but also im just struggling horrendously in AS.

[@Kylekashi]

[@daihieubui7927]

the fact that some people barely got 60k on pf and said it is easy so they skip erudition is funny to me. It is like moc 10 cycle lol, even clara and free qq or future free e6 march can do less than 10 cycle. Also some said 40k is as useless as 0 cycle, hell no, 40k in 0 cycle is the same as 0 cycle. 40k alone is like 2-3 cycle difficult.

[@Miaka61]

I've always loved, Jade! And will continue to . Thank you for the great video!

[@SirePuns]

Jade is actually cracked for PF. Putting debt collector on Herta and letting her commit warcrimes for the IPC's best interest is pure hilarity. And for MoC, you can obviously get her to work at higher jade investment (like E1S0 + E1S1 Topass)

[@Downbythebay22]

I think you're correct, but I think that your point of view mostly disregards the idea that I imagine most players share which is that I want a unit that I'm going to invest weeks of resources into to be good in more than one form of content. Acheron is top tier in all 3 endgame modes, so I'd want to pull her infinitely more than I'd want a Jade who is only good in PF. I personally don't have Jade and wouldn't be mad if I pull her on the 0.6% chances from my daily pull, but I also won't be disappointed that I didn't get her like I was with Aventurine because I can clear the content and Jade doesn't really offer that much if you are clearing PF already. I think if you could do like 50k on one side and she could hard carry you through to 3 stars, I might view it differently, but I think even if you're in rough shape in PF, Jade alone doesn't fix that issue for most accounts.

[@DemiDrako]

So the point he brings is for characters for specific game modes that’s fine but that doesn’t mean jade is a must pull since I can do same performances with herta and himeko and others people saw no point on getting jade cause her downside is that she is for PF specifically and not a lot of people were going to pull for her since firefly and other upcoming characters, jade got placed in such a bad spot which is why she is getting skipped and erudition banner characters are cursed for it

[@balaurontwitch1293]

We need a Support character wich debuffs enemys so the main target gets addition damage if u hit multiple target , and if there is no addition enemy the new support would summon tokens wich add addition damage to ur main target

[@danielehartmann2787]

This is EXACTLY why I pulled her. My f2p account is build for MoC and AS. They have basically the same roster. But PF is such a different beast, you need a tiny little pool of characters specific for that game mode. And here comes Jade.

[@NeoStarImpact]

I think she is incredible. Especially when played with Robin and Aventurine she pops off hard. And with Aventurine you have now the option to put the contract on him which makes the last slot a free flex pick. You can squeeze in pretty much anything that can either do a lot of AoE damage or a secondary harmony unit. So there is here and there some wiggle room for flexibility and funny team comps.

[@keysi06]

This is really a good point.. but some characters are really good with both..thats why she is getting skipped by the majority... their thought process is "why would I pull for characters that is only good with one thing when others can clear multiple content"

[@raisupon]

I don't really struggle with moc nor pf or any content, but I still wanted jade so bad because her mechanics seem so fun. Unfortunately I'm f2p. I hope she comes home before the end of the banner.

[@Shay_D_Mann]

Got this from Reddit - I find this to be a good reason as to why Jade isn't worth the pull at this moment in the PF meta. TLDR: Sub-DPS characters are just not optimal in a game like HSR. Before you shit talk me, at least read my long answer so you can understand where I'm coming from. ------------------------------ Long Answer: This is not going to sit well with a lot of folks, but the truth is that Sub-DPS’s (except Aventurine) are some of the most redundant characters in the game. Why? (1) Harmony Characters exist (and so do Nihility Characters). The Harmony path is the best path in the game - there’s no arguing about it. Sparkle, Ruan Mei, Tingyun, and Robin are all busted AF at buffing your teammates in all endgame game modes. Nihilities are really cracked too. Pela and Silver Wolf are just as good in non-PF game modes because their Def. Shred and their skill’s Res Down are both very potent at debuffing enemies. These characters enable your main carry to deal so much more damage that it’s worth running as many of them as you can in a team. Proof: Most zero cycles are done with teams with at least 2 or more Harmony and Nihility characters. Since Harmony and Nihility supports are better than sub-DPS characters, then from a performance perspective, what's the point of using sub-DPS characters? (2) Element Matching Sub-DPS characters just can’t compete with these Harmony and Nihility characters whether they are element matched or not. For example, if a sub-DPS’s element doesn’t match the weakness of the Stage you’re playing, Sub-DPS characters will lose out on damage due to Damage Resistance. This is also why a lot of Duo DPS teams aren't optimal - one of the DPS’s often don’t element match causing that DPS to lose out on damage. And even if they do element match, they’re still not better than a Nihililty or a Harmony path character at E0S1. Those supports are just way too busted in comparison. For example, according to community calculations, Topaz isn't Dr. Ratio’s best debuffer unless she’s at E1S1. (3) Main DPS characters exist. The only reason I can think of as to why a sub-DPS maybe used is if there are a lot of enemies to eliminate and your main carry cannot attack enough times like in PF. The problem is that most meta characters in PF can attack and kill mobs enough times (via DoTs, FuAs, and Ult spam) to clear and get 40k or at least get 3 stars - as long as they element match. Herta is extremely cracked in PF and her follow ups are mad strong. Same with Himeko. Argenti’s and Acheron’s ult spam are mad crazy too. Black swan is pretty good as well. Herta is absolutely free. People who've 50/50's probably have Himeko lying around in their roster. Black Swan is a very popular character and a lot of people have Acheron. And the unfortunate thing for Jade is that Quantum is also found in current enemies that have fire, ice, and lightning weaknesses - elements that are basically covered already by Acheron, Herta and Himeko. The Point: Don’t get me wrong, Sub-DPS characters are viable. They’re just not optimal. I mean ask yourself this: Why slot in a sub-DPS when a Harmony or two (or a Nihility) will provide better utility for your main carry? Or better yet, why pull Sub-DPS characters when limited Harmonies and the occasional limited Nihility provide way better value for your main carry and your account? Conclusion: The Sub-DPS archetype doesn’t make any practical sense to use from a value and performance perspective when compared to Harmony and Nihility characters. Exception: This discussion doesn’t apply to Aventurine because most teams will have a sustain regardless of whether they employ a sub-DPS character or not. He’s the one sub-DPS that actually works well in the game.

[@kennethyoung7457]

I think theres room for dual dps now that we have Harmony like Ruan Mei and Robin that buffs the whole team anyway. I love Clara, Topaz, Robin and Aventurine team it is just really smooth and powerful. PF for sure dual dps is the meta, and now in Apocalyptic Shadow sub dps are also valuable since they can contribute to breaking enemy quicker than just one dps can. Now you might have a point that being off element hurt the dmg but if you build both your dps and have strong support character like aforementioned Ruan Mei or Robin than that is non issue the enemy doesn't stand a chance. Overall its a different way to play the game it might be more investment to do it, but it does have its uses and it is powerful. There is a trend of new sustains and harmonies being more offensive nowadays though so they will probably be acting as sub dps as well. The game is becoming like Genshin where every slot in the team does insane dmg.

[@Shay_D_Mann]

@@kennethyoung7457 Respectfully, harmonies are so busted that it makes way more sense to have more Harmonies over DPS's on a team. I'll demonstrate it below. What you're saying about Duo-DPS is more true with sub DPS characters that don't take up a team slot from Harmony/Nihility supports. More specifically, Aventurine, because he's the only sub-DPS that fits the description, because most teams require a sustain. Using RM, Robin, Aventurine, and Herta, I cleared the PF Quantum Ice Node with 2 full cycles remaining. How? Both Herta and Aventurine were dealing massive amounts of damage because they're double buffed by RM and Robin, You're correct in that RES PEN can help a team go off element, like Aventurine in the example I provided for instance, but like the dude from reddit said, having as many Harmonies as possible is better because Harmonies can be used optimally in any team, unlike sub-DPS who are viable but not optimal in every scenario. Case in point, Robin and Rm can be used on all sorts of teams and still remain the optimal buffers on those teams.

[@Torguemada]

I'm running a team of Jade, Robin, Himeko and Loucha, i could replace Jade with Ruan Mei to boost my Himeko's damage by about 50-70%., but my Jade contribute's 100% of Himeko's damage to the enemies on top of giving Himeko a massive speed boost so why would I?

[@Shay_D_Mann]

@@Torguemada Himeko is perfectly fine in PF. She can easily clear PF with just her as a Hypercarry or with another main DPS like Herta and get 40k on one side of PF. Use Ruan Mei with her and Himeko becomes a monster on her own because weakness breaking procs her FuA. Use another Harmony Support like Tingyun or Sparkle, Himeko becomes unstoppable in PF. Furthermore, Ruan Mei (and any other Harmony support) can also be used on other teams and game modes to buff their teammates. So to answer your idiotic question, “why would you not use Jade?” - It’s because she’s a decrepit at literally any other game mode and that makes her value far lower than a lot of the other characters in the game. The Harmony supports can easily be used in any game mode and so their value is unparalleled compared to a pathetic sub-DPS. The game is also balanced around the existence of the limited Harmony characters - which makes them must pulls if an account is to keep up with the inflating HP values in MoC. Perhaps if you could just stop simping for half a second, you could’ve answered your own question, simp.

[@karsnogen8141]

let's not lie to ourselves, PF is most of the time harder than MoC. A dedicated carry for PF is a no-brainer

[@setsunaaottg291]

The thing is I think that with the release of AS pf characters wouldn’t really be as valuable as characters tailor made for moc since those characters can clear both AS and MoC, I would rather have a character that can clear 2 game modes potentially 3 since both acheron and firefly can clear all 3 comfortably (also yunli but I wouldn’t say anything more since it’s leak territory) rather than having a character that can only excel at one game mode. On top of that people also forgot that pf is a lot more forgiving than as and moc when it comes to rewards since pf gives you a reward per star not per 3 stars.

[@slyx4197]

My problem with Jade is that outside of pure fiction her kit feels incomplete where her e1 fixes that she doesn't need to be broken everywhere but i would like to use a character that feels complete and her e1 is something i think it should be in her base kit, in my eyes she just feels incomplete. For example Argenti he is not the best in MOC even when i have Acheron and Firefly i like to use him i don't care if they not the best but i don't feel like using a incomplete character like her

[@sporkybyme]

Thats is exactly what I did, I pulled her because i have no real PF Teams and I struggle to clear PF consistently. And now I have a real Incentive to finally Build all the units for PF.

[@Slowpokedu]

imo Hoyoverse REALLY wants to push the divergent/simulated universes as the true end game. It's a way to promote all banners/playstyles, while maintaining a difficulty cap, and even giving more rewards than MOC/Pure fiction

[@draixsama]

Absolutely not. The Divergent Universe resets like every 3 months, and the rewards are one-time unlike MoC, PF, and AS. Any character can clear SU now, especially after DU where it literally builds your character for you, for free. The three difficult game modes we have now specifically caters towards banner characters, that's the very definition of selling a product; to solve a problem created or otherwise. I don't know where you get the feeling that SU is endgame when it's literally stagnant for 3 entire months, or at least when a new expansion releases.
