[@jemarperocho5869]

To those who don't know (like moga hehe) there is a setting where you can manual your ults while you are in auto.

[@darkzbroyt9499]

😮

[@cervusgaming4320]

1:08 E1 is 30%~ increase, wheras the lightcone gives 20%~. But the lightcone has the added comfort, which is important too.

[@mozzapple]

The LC provides EHR and defensive stats, which are very good

Btw the deer is wind and lightning resistant so that also affected the clear time

[@vaggeliskapsiotis7623]

Huo huo is 20 times better then fu xuan in dot cause of the atk increase and cause dots can’t crit

[@nickbrandt2915]

Hey heads up, the deer has lightning and wind resistance. The reason why black swan did poorly there is because she was doing only half of her normal damage.

[@ankitchanda7207]

Black Swan Kafka Ruan Mei and Huohuo..thats your best team

[@facehugger8995]

until the fire DoT healer guy that scales with break effect he'll be awesome for the dual DoT dps team

@@ramaanugrahpratama8804 i think he is a 4 star on adventurines banner gallagher I have e6 luocha but I'd rather have another DoT person on my team even if they only have a little sustain for 3 dps + ruan mei

[@sleep_something_something]

love him he is hot and amazing, i am gonna use him in easier content or into Fireweak. into non fire weak he is just a hot healer with no offensive utility But Huo Huo is still the best offensive sustain in most scenarios and in general with her 40percent ATK boost which is amazing in dot teams with Ruan Mei if played well and built speedy she can cut every units ult rotation by a turn, still good if u cant play her optimally cute e1

[@ReallytallRosa]

@@ramaanugrahpratama8804 Well no, Huohuo would still be better due to buffing and cleansing lol

[@zackarybumbaugh9677]

The real showcase is that any team is viable with Ruan Mei

[@wikidpsycokilla]

Guinaifen really helps with dot team elemental coverage. She gives a vulnerability debuff so you wont get diminished returns from def shred and res pen, and her ult detonates burn to help stack arcana faster. Unlike Sampo and Luka, she doesnt need eidolons to do so.

[@tamamono-mae3853]

Just wanted to inform u that def sherd doesnt have diminishing returns as it is a exponential dmg multiplier whereas something like an atk boost or dmg boost is linear, res sherd does though

[@wikidpsycokilla]

Def shred has a cap of 100%, it just doesnt suffer diminishing returns until the cap. However, it is considered the same as def ignore in the damage calculation. E0s1 Black Swan with the dot relic set already ignores 87% defense at 7 arcana stacks during epiphany. Silverwolf or Pela can only add the remaining 13%, the rest is wasted. Meanwhile Guinaifen can use the resolution lightcone at s1 to give 12% def shred on top of the 21-28% vulnerability.

[@sleep_something_something]

first of all, unless u have more than I00 percent def shred there is no diminishing returns, same with res pen I forgot how much in detail but under 30 point something percent res pen it's still good, not to mention how rare res pen is. (also e1 Kafka has a 30 percent dot vulnerability so u can make an argument for Pela) Idk why u brought up Res Pen into this, but yhea guin is better than Pela by some small percentage in dot teams(aka kafka+bs) if u don't have Ruan Mei.

[@wikidpsycokilla]

@@sleep_something_something Its a Black Swan video, so I was speaking in the context of her on the team, and Ive already gone over the def shred and how she doesnt really need more. As Ruan Mei is the best support for dot and gives 25% res pen, if you dont have Kafka or run without a sustain then Guinaifen not having it becomes relevant, since Ruan Mei brings you so close to the soft cap.

[@NekuroWinkel01]

Did you imply luka need eldion to trigger bleed? Cause he didn't need to FYI

[@alissaspark9497]

She’s just to elegant to pass up Meta < Design

[@roxas5071]

i agree she is pretty but i learned my lesson when i pulled eula. was she pretty? definetly did i use her? not at all

[@kukitali]

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE

[@ray6149]

Ruan Mei is literally best support for dot teams considering her buffs apply to dot, also Huohuo is the best sustain since she gives a little more energy to black swan to be able to use her ultimate more

[@severedstride]

At first I didn’t like dot at all but I pulled for black swan cus she’s one of my favorite characters so far and now I can’t stop playing dot. It’s just so fun and the numbers in sim uni are just insane.

[@dosermandoserman320]

From what I understand, Ruan Mei is BS+Kafka BiS harmony character.

[@blackraen]

I remember thinking "Wow, how busted is Black Swan," but then I also switched out Ruan Mei. Had that "Oh... Ruan Mei is a heavy lifter," moment. Black Swan is still great, love DoT/Nihility, but all praise Ruan Mei. She just makes everything better.

[@BenziLZK]

I just use my blackswan kafka combo with guinaifen, it's so satisfying to see triple dot in MoC. Unfortunately it's kinda unfavorable in this ultra defuffs because it slows the enemies :v (still completed within 5 waves tho)

[@av_kay5059]

If ur BS is with Kafka Asta should be enough by a metric ton, RM just makes it not matter even more

[@Kefo_]

this video felt like a video about the moc rather then black swan but honestly there isn't much u can do with a dot support. I still loved the video❤❤❤

[@0v_x0]

Kafka's dot detonations also each add a stack of Arcana, so her ult and E both add multiple stacks. The synergy is wild. Any dot proc also adds a stack, so in sim universe on Nihility path all the resonance dots proc before Arcana does, adding several stacks and leading to the funny numbers. Planar farming has never been easier (or more hilarious)

[@LazyCatOnTheRoof]

Bro really took SW instead of Pela for AOE defense shred? I love these Moga takes. 💀

[@OrRaino]

Another day, another Ruan mei showcase

[@neroxdgaming9362]

Sparkle going to be that unit whos gonna be busted for DHIL. I think. Ruan Mei Definitely a insane damage booster i dont regret getting her e2

[@adamcobb7892]

Not having kafka i was a little meh about getting her. Didnt think id win 4 50/50s in a row. So now i have a 5 star i need to wait for another kafka type unit or wait for kafka in a yr haha

[@KiriTheKit]

Tingle Time! Thank you Poffle

[@Zafaruss]

Once you start those DoT stacks, you get addicted.

[@m7md_wex]

Who is better with black swan and kafka sampo or ruan mei?

[@sosteneshion]

shouldve used huohuo for the god mode since she gives atk buff nonetheless great video

[@dryadan4114]

question for star railers...does BS do more dmg on Glamoth? i have mine built on EHR set and shes doing MORE than enough dmg

[@sleep_something_something]

Ehr set is better/more dmg but people go glamoth cause it's easier to farm, if u can hit 160 then glamtoh is better by 2 or 3 percent but 160 is pretty hard and not recommended unless u hav e1 houhuo and ruan mei

[@meriwidget3474]

Other reply was pretty accurate.. if you can get over 160 SPD then Galmoth hedges it by like 1%, but generally, the EHR set is better for her, but most don't farm that set specifically, both for efficiency and it's not great for anyone else, since ATK is still better for other DoT units, but as always, stats > sets.

[@Divine-General-Mahoraga]

Ehr set is marginally better BUT glamoth IS WAAAAAYYYYYYYY more valuable to farm for

[@JACK-yg4fz]

arent u going to livestream the penacony storyyyyy? XD

[@thedzgaming5782]

For f2p just put sampo weapon for effect hit rate and dot

[@Kristofy1]

got black swan accidentally, now waiting for kafka rerun...

[@eternitiesx]

that's gonna take a while!

[@muhammadreyhan9668]

not E1 and even dont have the LC, but i hope i can do something to give decent damage... Using Sampo lighcone at the momment

[@pondypoo]

I got her to E1 cos I recently pulled Kafka. Been using her with S5 EotP that I max enhanced. Then did 5 single pulls on LC cos I still don’t have any dance dance dance. And got her LC and a dupe Welt LC😂 Shouldn’t have maxed that Sampo LC :(

[@rikkucrowe]

You could try houhou for dot team if you have her

[@takeshihada9689]

Yesss, join the DoT club~

[@deewoodworth5410]

Totally unrelated to the content of the video I LOVEEEE saying your outro with you😭 I still remember the first time I fucking heard you emphasize it like that, so weird. But like fucking CLOCKWORK every time, I will now mouth along/chime in w the words. Ur silly Mr Moga

[@luqie_]

I think s1 is more valuable since you only put 2 dot dmg dealer in a team and how much s1 boost your overall team dmg

[@creyxenos287]

yay i m in top 4 for the first time in my life😀

[@ratattack1419]

U ought to use huohuo instead of fu xuan cuz of the atk buffs and debuff removal

[@someoneidkwho860]

if you are able to consistently brake then Ruan May is the best character with Kafka and black swan

[@SpittersRQuitters]

I don’t think Kafka is that necessary for Black swan. I used BS Ruan Mei tingyun and fu xuan and 36 star MOC

[@meriwidget3474]

She isn't necessary, no. I've seen people crank out crazy damage with her as a hyper carry or with E4 Sampo. TBF, her and Kafka do complement each other very well, but doesn't make it mandatory.

[@alawe-memes9022]

​​@@roxas5071she's the jack of all trades Respectfully tell me if you're playing dumb Because being good at multiple things Is better than being the best at one thing. Leaks alert!!!! I saw sparkle kit And all the buffs she gives SHE'S TOO NICHE 1- she give only CD and lil dmg bonus 2- Sp increase is not mandatory (for now) 3 doesn't give extra free dmg(unlike RM who gives 100k break dmg. Basically: ruan mei is the best for dmg for now What you said is wrong.

[@roxas5071]

@@alawe-memes9022 leaks again wow crit dmg and dmg bonus? its almost like every single dps ever uses those stats... she also has a 50% forward advance, is sp possitive (which ruan also is but sparkle is a front loaded sp generator while ruan is a back loaded one) not to mention she gives about 60% dmg bonus and 100% crit dmg, hell on a f2p build (shop lc) she gives basically as much dmg bonus as bronya, and a lot more crit dmg sparkle is quite literally the best harmony buffer, i said ruan mei is the best harmony overall because she offers break efficiency which gives her survivability purposes (even tho Sparkle's frontloaded sp generation also gives survivability since the support will be able to use their skill mote often), but in terms of buffing Ruan is close but not quite the level of Sparkle, especially because Sparkle has turn advancement one of the most broken things in the game, her crit dmg buff also lasts between turns so she would be buffing characters like Dr Ratio and Jing Yuan (unlike Bronya), hell the multiple tcs have already confirmed Sparkle is indeed the best buffer in the game in terms of raw power alone, Ruan Mei is still more versatile overall (dual dps scenarios, which really arent that good but hey iyw jingliu and blade are a good combo, and dot teams) but in terms of the better buffer it's Sparkle, mainly because she provides more raw stats compared to Ruan who provides pen which really depends on the enemy you are facing rather than yourself

What frustrating about dot to me is not anything to do with it effectiveness more so how limiting they made it compared to other mechanics/playstyles in the game , like with follow up atks there are not only a wide range of characters from different paths who utilize it, but ideas for team comps that revolve around it can also range you can go classic himeko herta or ratio topaz if you really want a throwback you can go clara and march 7th , you can also plug in clara or othera like xeuyi w himeko and herta or what about the 6 team party of topaz jing lun a sustain and buffer plus numby and the thunder god ? With dot not only are the majority in nihility but pretty much any team thats want to fully utilize it have kafka and black swan and you can make dot teams without them but they will always be just a lesser dot team. Then if you just added them . Do i think dot is bad ? No not necessarily.. i do kinda wish each dot had a bit more unique traits to differentiate themselves with just for a quick example what about if bleed also increased basic atk dmg on effected enemies or wind shears giving you advance movement percent based on how many stacks it got stuff like that so each stood out more then just all being exactly the same except for the smallest details that barely change how they work
