Short answer the game is easy, pull whatever you want. Long answer, Robin and Ruan Mei because they work with any team archetype and can get away with 4 star light cones.

[@KiichiGoto-ox4pg]

They can even work with 3 star lc which is amazing

[@mediumsurmoon6283]

And they can make any 4 star DPS work too. Great for new players like me who literally have a full set of 4 stars as the 2nd team, not because I want to but because those are the only chars I have. I am on the verge of building Yanqing because of how desperate I am rn, but since I don’t have Gepard, so I can’t build him, which is probably a blessing in disguise tbh. The only other 5* I have is Clara, but she’s pretty… meh, she’s strong and fun but she doesn’t really do as well as I wanted for end game content (and no I’m not talking about 0 cycle, my aim rn is to at least 2 star all stages) So my 2nd team now have Ruan Mei plopped right in the middle of 4 star characters. Although I would very much prefer Robin over Ruan Mei

The only true "value" in any game is how much fun you have while playing it. Emotional investment is the one that matters and it must pay off. E.g.

[@erinnerung_]

A lot of HSR players have this small thing for saying X character is a must pull. Which really is not true. Not unit in this game is EVER a must pull because of how the game is defined by strategy. While yes meta units are good and can make your account better the dont actually solve the major issues of that being build/strategy. The drfining characters of being considered must pulls are robin and ruan mei. They have strong base kits and have great early eidolons but they arent required for a team. Firefly superbreak teams are most prominent example for wanting ruan mei. See how said want instead need? While yes ruan.ei dramatically increases ff performance she isnt a must. Other subsitutes can be used. The point im trying to make is that a unit may help solve some problems its not going to solve ALL your problems because in the end of the day it comes down to a build / team comp issue. Instead of saying said unit is must a pull we should instead recommend said unit as great support for said team. And this video perfectly displays this thankyou.😊

[@H.Collector]

When new gacha games come out, I always skip at least the first 4 limited banners because a) those characters usually get powercrept a few patches down the line and b) early release content is usually easy enough to clear all with 4-star teams.

[@belleboni2016]

Looking back to all the previous banners, older players (prior 2.0) really took it hard. As the game is just starting, there are few characters to work on and only hypercarry is the available gamestyle. Imo, we newer players are fortunate (start at Sparkle banner). The game had already laid the foundation of different gamestyles and develop new characters based on them. Like for example; they had Ruan Mei and create HMC for Super Break, they just need DPS (Firefly, Boothill) and sustain (Gallagher and Lingsha). In addition, they released or rerun these characters simultaneously so that you can play them together. Like the free Dr. Ratio, then Aventurine, Robin, Topaz and Jade for FUA. As for my account: Free Dr. Ratio Bronya on Departure Warp Sparkle E0S1 Acheron E0S1 Aventurine Jingliu E0S1 (I got her on 3pass😭) Fu Xuan Ruan Mei E0S1 Lost to Himeko on Firefly banner I think my roster is well balanced, I can mix and match teams with different gamestyle except DOT. Planning to pull Kafka when she rerun.

[@bubblesparks]

I'm a day one player and oh how you are so right on us old players having it rough. Back then the only fixed archetype are DOT and hypercarry. I decided to get hypercarry bc danheng 5* was just the hype back then, also bc he's part of AE and the lack of imaginary chars back then so i pulled him. Nowadays i barely use Imbibitor Lunae, even though I pulled sparkle for him. I find myself loving FUA units so much more ever since I saw the synergy between Topaz and Ratio. Even Blade's FUA playstyle is still confy as heck (a shame abt his numbers). Back then, Hunt characters were so ass since we only have like Seele (which im not interested at), yanqing, 4* danheng.. they don't rly have FUA incorporated and got blown out of the water by destruction so yea Oh and I'm one of the Kingyuan believer. I think he aged decent with the release of PF, i also use sparkle with him instead of IL. Kinda shocked me how his FUA playstyle holds up even now and was pretty much the blueprint for acheron (stack system)

[@elfawne]

I agree so much, I even got to think that the game is not F2P enough because all of my hard earned units are replaced and I had to pull for more to be competent. I have JY, SW, Luocha, DHIL, even pulled sparkle for them but I never use them now, the hypercarries are just so incompetent without their S1. Now I am aFirefly, Boothill and Acheron main and the power gap with older characters are big. I use Gallagher way more than Luocha, a 5 star that I spent a lot on. Now that they know where the game is going, I hope they will make every playstle shine in their own way, because I feel betrayed and robbed.

Step 1: Find your 2 favorite characters, if they are from different teams go to step 2, else pick one more charater. Step 2: find the BiS teamates for that character and pull them. Step 3: find the OP Eidolons in that composition and pull it. That's what i did in my main account and i've been 0cycling MoC in every patch with Topaz who is not only my favorite DPS, but also a subpar option, and yet im steamrolling content because of *vertical investment* i could even bruteforce AS with HC Topaz if wanted to do so. Pull for the characters you like, More wholesomeness and less anxiety. And remember: Love and respect yourself.

I strongly agree with your arguments, where it's not about pulling all the character to get an easy way to clear the contents. I spent a lot of money on this game (at least for me), but I recently got the feeling that "What is the endpoint if I keep pulling all of the newest characters?". Sure it's fun to get the newest character and to ride the "hype-wave", but I usually get bored after 2 weeks of playing. Right now I tried to build my *4 that already collecting dust which bring different type of joy and challenge of playing the game

[@xSilverWolfx15]

It's always a pleasure to see when you post man 🙏 Always appreciate your thought process with Honkai and characters. It's helped me formulate how I decide whether or not to pull on a banner. Although I do have a question and I feel you've already been asked this many times on stream but, Will you be potentially pulling for Feixiao as well? or will that be a skip for you since you already have two limited hyper carry dps and now you just want to get teammates that will help support them overall? hence your potential pulling for Jiaoqiu? Personally I have been saving to pull for her (I unfortunately fell into the trap and ended up trying to pull for Jade on the last day of her banner with a lost 5050) because I feel like she could replace Seele as a main hyper carry. I'd still use Seele overall just because I like her but Feixiao has been on my radar since her announcement simply due to the fact she has a wind element and my account is severely lacking in that currently. But after the cutscene of her first reveal? yeah I am locked LOL. But yeah as always a great video and a pleasure. Have a great day

i pull whenever and whoever i want it just coincidence that they either hot mommies or cute girls but as a veteran with more than 10 years of turn base experience as the basic gameplay, getting support always better than dps, would be great if they offer one or more of these effect (spd buff/debuff, atk/damage buff, form of sustain (heal,shield,defense buff), defense debuff, atk debuff) left one being more prioritized

[@SuguruSaturday]

In your opinion would you class kafka as a support ina way because she activates dot. I started the game recently so yh I'm a noob 😅

[@misbahul9044]

​@@SuguruSaturday im also kinda new to HSR, she is indeed debuffer but more of DOT masterclass in my comment above dot is probabaly the least useful debuff (hell im not even mentioning it, DOT just does damage when enemies move, but kafka offset that, thats why she unique in her own way), so she is kinda debuff damage dealer. since she offer not that much in term of other debuff while black swan, she can defense debuff on her skill, between these 2 mommies black swan have better debuff to offer (correct me if i wrong, i just read those 2 skill and traces, since im also new) in most turn based game, the most OP thing to do probably get more turn which mean spd buff or extra turn (action forward in case of HSR) are preferable. then atk buffer + defense debuff so that your dps can do lot of damage, hence why robin and ruan mei is so good ( they literally does turn manipulation thru spd/action forward and they buff the team), sparkle and bronya does that but only 1 allies also having dps that can buff on their own also great bonus on themselves

What up Nutty Buddys? It's kind of interesting because the 4-star supports are still really good. It honestly might have be best to pull Damage characters. You could still do really well with just one Limited support. I did the opposite - i got too many supports and sustains, but since i didn't have a limited damage dealer, i was still struggling to clear MoC. HSR is fun- all the different archetypes give good variety. I started with Clara and came to really enjoy follow up attacks. So far, Sparkle has been my favorite character. She's the only character i pulled the signature LC for and i ended up getting her E1 while i working toward pity for Robin. Looking forward to grabbing her E2 this week!

[@teumefatih5490]

Same case with me, but i have Acheron and firefly and can clear all 3 endgame content easily, those 2 DPS can carry on MoC and AS pretty easy for me, as for PF I use herta+himeko and pair them with robin+RM for easy 30K points more

[@taoboyce6412]

I started near the end of Sparkle's banner. I pulled for Acheron and her sig, Aventurine, Robin, Ruan Mei, Firefly and next I'm planning on pulling Jiaoqiu I pulled for Acheron for several reasons, but the main reason was because of her ultimate stacking. It has so much future potential since it's not locked to the normal ultimate energy system. With Jiaoqiu, its a direct upgrade to her. I'm also keeping an eye out for other potential combinations: Boothill has something similar to what I had in mind, since he can debuff on skill, then break out of his taunt to do another skill on the same turn (which counts as two separate stacks for acheron) Boothill's synergy wasn't strong enough for me to pull him though. I pulled Aventurine because I needed a strong sustain. I pulled Robin because she's obscenely powerful for not only my characters in PF, but also hypercarry in general. I could see the potential of her 100%av on ult. I pulled Ruan Mei because Super Break requires very little resources to get into, and I needed a second strong dps on my account (I couldn't use ratio since acheron was using all my debuffers) So then I pulled Firefly (because I like her) I can't see Sparkle outshining robin in anything she does, since her main benefit over Robin is the sp and comfortability. (A non-issue)

[@insertnamehere2022]

Yeah you definitely wanna focus on building the archetypes you like For me I want to go for DOT, Break and Hypercarry So I have a pulling plan for units like Kafka black swan, firefly Ruan Mei, Acheron Silver wolf etc Completely ignoring FUA characters even tho it seems Hoyo really loves that Archetype rn 😅

[@valtir]

I think that some characters can be considered "universal must pull" just because every account has some really powerful "free" characters: harmony mc, hunt march, gallagher (we got 2 free gallagher during penacony, so you just need 1 additional gallagher for E2), herta for PF You can pull a single ruan mei and build a very solid team with gallagher/harmony mc/hunt march or another f2p break focused character You can pull a single robin and build another solid team with gallagher (qpq - a free LC) / bronya (you can always get her after 300 standard pulls if you are unlucky) / hunt march Robin is also the best buffer for PF, robin/herta/himeko can bruteforce nearly any PF Spending your jades for them will open a lot of f2p friendly solid teams, so i think that those 2 units are the only two "universal must pull" for this game

[@XunluT]

Each and every new harmony!

[@ash5983]

A must pull character that applies to all players does not exist. Not even ruan mei, robin, or sparkle are must pulls. Just get a character you like, build them based on their kit, and get a fitting team. They will still be good. The character you like is the character that will help you enjoy, which is the only must-have in this game -- fun.

[@andysabur4966]

can you share how youve kept up with endgame stuff with only hypercarry as your comp. since starting in 2.1, i got acheron and ratio and boothill team mostly up and running, and those 3 really blaze through the 3 modes, just wondering what the f2p setup would be for as and pf

[@WalnutBoo]

So what you’re saying is Ruan Mei is 99% a must pull, but that 1% makes her not a must pull for everyone right? Jokes aside, I agree that no unit is a must pull ever, but there are certainly units who can get more value easily on anyone’s account regardless of what they’ve invested in.

[@AzureDrag0n1]

I pulled Jing Yuan mainly for Tingyun. I found this well worth it as that character was extremely valuable. Only character I regret not pulling was probably Robin. I should have skipped Boothill instead because I ended up getting e2 Firefly.

[@stribijev]

We have almost the same pull record, I just do not pull for eidolons, and I pulled for Seele with her LC, but not for Luocha (I lost 50/50 to Welt on his banner), aha, and I pulled Boothill (not Firefly) as I could not clear the MoC back then with my characters. One remark though: Ruan Mei is IMHO a must-pull unit. It amplifies any team damage and is currently part of "insane" break meta. Ruan Mei enhances team damage about 33% (my gut calculations, no math involved), which is so visible in Pure Fiction (where 20K points suddenly raise to 30K and you can get all the stars).

[@RomnilWater]

I will say the most long lasting, account changing, characters I've pulled have been Luocha and Ruan Mei. Even though i seem to have a habit of collecting Sustain (I have all of them except Huo Huo) Luocha is still my go to Sustain in MoC and team building when I just need healing onthe team. Of course I use Gallagher for Break teams and Aventurine for follow up or Fu Xuan if the enemy is super hard hitting but Luocha does have a niche with self buffing enemies. His enemy buff cleanse is really nice and it's not something easily done (I think only Pela and the BP Lightcone is the only other sources). As for Ruan Mei... what's there to say? She really good and Universal. Even if she's power crept she'll still be useful for a long time given that she's harmony and you can double her up with someone else with little trouble.

[@wtpiv6041]

I figure I'll add on to the Luocha thing. I also skipped him initially as I had Bailu and Gepard. But he would've saved me from so much suffering later on. Thankfully I got Fu Xuan and later Aaventurine to carry my sustains along with E6 Gallagher. But it really hurt early on for sure.

I only picked up Acheron for Quality of Life in the Simulated Universe, but Feixiao is the 1st limited 5* DPS in the game that I think actually looks good, so I'm considering it. But really, I just Screwllum 😅

[@Dywnthycheese]

My story I pulled blackswan with no intension and got her winning pity and oh man it works with most of the comps for me bc of her dots and def shread from her skill and her ult kit that makes the enemy receive more dmg at their turn

[@heck8598]

0:19, you’re wrong… I got Acheron and she single handedly saved my account bcuz the 5 stars that I had before her had absolutely zero synergy with eachother. (BS, SW and Blade). She carried me through everything

[@erinnerung_]

Yes. Strong units help but it's the team building around said units which actually define how a character performs. Your statement is weak because it's really actually how your resources are managed and are built upon to make said units. You looking narrowly on this topic and deeper.

[@starcilio4962]

(I start playing at 1.4) I regret pulling Silver wolf on her rerun but it was an easy pull so its ok. I wish i had ARGENTI because Pure fiction is painful if your only PF unit is Herta. Failed to get ACHERON. Too broke for BOOTHILL. Skipped FIREFLY despise the fact she 100% ruined superbreak. Skipped ROBIN. Might get her in the future. Skipped Inbibitor rerun. Seems like too much investment to go for E2S1 to turn him into a complete menace. As someone who dosen't 0 cycle everything ; Aventurine is the one character that was an absolute game changer for survival and dealing free dmg. Huo Huo was a ridiculously lucky one tap .Didn't planned to pull for her in the first place but she sure provide major value as healer and a battery. She was great for Tingyun/Jingliu and she is still great with Tingyun/Yunli. Ruan Mei is Ruan Mei. Sparkle is still good all over the place, even better if you have some team mate hungry for SP. Yunli is great . My favorite unit since Aventurine. Don't care if she's meta or not tbh. TLDR: Support still rules the game. 2 sustain, one for each team, like Aventurine & Huo Huo make your life super easy. Try to invest into a Pure Fiction unit. If you got Acheron and Firefly , you pretty much beat the game. Also Acheron is about to get her new best boi to make her even more absurd. And obviously, if you're doing fine already, just pull for whatever you want . That's what i did with Yunli and i'm happy. Now saving for the FATE collab .

[@PuppyGamePlayzA]

Huohuo is great. She's harmony and Abundance. So idk why u skipped her. Shes better than luocha imo(not as healing but as utillity and support)

[@rajeshappalasawmy3667]

😅my main two dps are Acheron and Jingliu, guess we have similar tastes.

[@shutup1037]

Scary hot ladies is my type

[@jimmyh2019]

i was on the verge of giving up on hsr because i was getting kind of bored. then came yunli. she is so fun to play. now my current goal is to have the best built yunli and teams around her and to later invest in her vertically. will i get other characters? probably. but my tier list is yunli first, yunli teams second. everyone else third.

[@albertjai9174]

Our pulls are SAME!

0:04 i mean those things are only a "must do" if you want to live 😅

[@dreakney]

i must pull my waifu and husbando ❤❤❤

[@specs9818]

Started playing in 2.0 My (simple) advice: If you're f2p like me; pick 2 archetypes (dot, fua, hyper, break, etc), and only pull units that support your chosen archetype. I like fua, so I pulled for all the IPC units + robin. And I like acheron so I'm planning on pulling JQ. And I'm planning on getting all their LC when they rerun. I always get the units I want with this and I can full clear all endgame

[@SaBeR_2442]

From gachas i've played its pretty much jus get good supports and almost any dps can work imo

[@toufonglee5073]

Thoughts on Feixiao and Jiaoqiu?

[@vincikeeper1581]

Mine as simple, I see men and their teammates, I click.

[@emeraldo]

Tall waifu = Neuron activation (I pull)

[@desupair]

Biggest regret pulling Blade. Even with Jade, he is just not up to par and is always benched. Jade and Jingyuan work better. A lot of units synergize well with Jing. I got Luocha and thought Blade would be fun with him. But he is still meh. Wish i got Kafka or Dan Heng IL insteas but i stopped playing for awhile and came back around Sparkle's debut who also works great with Jing.

[@allooonzog1113]

I 100% am getting Kafka in the upcoming rerun, but am also missing Black Swan and Huohuo. Should I prioritize Huohuo or Black Swan if my only healers are Lynx. Natasha, Gallagher?

[@shade467]

personally i would go for black swan, kafka + black swan is a nuclear combination and whilst kafka is still an excellent, versatile character without black swan the dmg dealt by your team will be a lot lower. even though huohuo is much more than a healer, it's still the main thing you actually NEED to put her in a team for and it's a lot easier to replace her role (healing) with that of swan (huge numbers). We have two whole paths dedicated to keeping your team alive so there should be another character within the next few banners that you can pull after black swan as your 5 star sustain.

[@NirajThapa-eq4wu]

Bro healer or shielder is necessary in this game.I think getting huohuo is nice but its ur choice. If u can sustain with them go for black swan if not go for huohuo. If u are new player then u can easily get both of them.

[@JMike-bq6rl]

Gallagher copies atleast E4, with a very fast 160+ speed...would be great for Dual DPS team comps. SP generation is also a factor, on how smooth the rotations gonna be. Coz you would prefer Black Swan and Kafka to be Skill spamming most of the time on their turns. If you are set on playing DOT.

[@koldonn1111]

For hyv games, here's my procedure to tell if a character is a 'must pull', I ask one simple question. "Is this character Furina?" Yes: = Must Pull No: = Not a Must Pull

[@therion451]

"When you play hypercarries, you have more jades" Thats just blatantly wrong since you pull for their eidolons and signatures which ends up costing more than a full fua team and that team still can clear all content with max rewards at e0s0. Your reasoning doesnt make sense, also the fact that youve spent much more money on the game further disprove your point.

[@hypemaddox]

Lets go through FUA team vs Hypercarries if you decide to pull their meta teams rn owning nothing: Fua Team: -Topaz (Sig is very big for them as for every hunt unit) -Ratio (WAS free but will be replaced by feixiao who also suffers from hunt sigs being extreme boosts) -Robin -Aventurine 4 - 6 cost team with sig Yunli (The most expensive generic hypercarry Meta team): - Yunli - Robin/Sparkle - Tingyun - Huohuo 3 - 4 cost team with sig Firefly (2 cost with no sigs) Jingliu (3-4 cost with sig) Dhil (3-4 cost with sig) Boothill (3 cost with sig) FUA team is an expensive team and if we begin to ignore the amount of sustains/supports hypercarry teams share you still have to account for 2 the dual DPS nature of FUA team who both receive massive boosts from signatures.

[@dimpejogja]

I believe you take nut's reasoning wrong. He had existing two hypercarry teams with two 5* sustain already. He probably only needs two Golds (let's say one Gold equivalent to one 5* character or weapon) at least, or four Golds at most. On the other hand, if he want to builds another team, let's say fua, he will need three Gold at least, since neither of his five-star sustain are great for fua so he needs Aventurine, and might add one more Gold for Robin, since Robin is better than Ruan Mei in fua teams. So rather than spend four Golds or more just to make a team that performs no better than his existing teams, why not use those Golds to make existing one stronger?

[@shutup1037]

Lolz wrong 😂

[@theperson101ful]

As a E0S1 DoT team owner, don't waste your money on kafka, rather get more Acheron's.

[@ShinyJarachi]

Tldr harmony units lolz Jk pull whoever depending on your goals I guess ( waifu, meta, both, for fun.) Personally I go for meta to get more rewards and easier content clearing

[@eve_mwuah]

Should i go for e2 acheron because i have sparkle and hella jades saved up or jiaqui with e0 acheron and pela

[@merusotajio2222]

Honestly they have pretty much equal performances, sparkle is amazing for E2 Acheron , but Jiaoqui is still her best support even with her second eidolon

[@ryusorata]

There is no must pull, except rm, she is must pull.

cool insight

[@Celestial-yq6hz]

I pulled for Jing Yuan cause of VA, DanIL cause I liked how he played, I got Seele on her rerun cause HI3 but skipped Ruan Mei cause I was curious about the future How I pull is based on if I like what the character does or I know the VA

[@davidfrost5995]

Honestly i just pulled everyone there are few characters i decided to skip which were Kafka, topaz, luocha and sone others cuz at the time they were niche

[@kirillurvancev2116]

Every vertical invest could be more character on acc.

[@saiwaqa2573]

You were absolutely wrong. Not only is Hypercarry pretty much obsolete right now, but Robin is the best support. She clears RM in every team comp except break teams. Robin clears in hypercarry, in dot, in fua, and in dual dps teams. She only loses to break for obvious reasons.

[@finiraelkhami8251]

Yeah, but break is just that good of a team comp, and RM is still amazing in every other team. The buffs she provides are also universal, whereas Robin's are ATK scaling (not that there are a lot of non ATK scaling units tho). So RM is still better than Robin globally imo. Robin still rules in follow ups

[@mongrelshadow14]

Selee Still 0 cycles current MoC. HC isn't irrelevant/obsolete bro.

[@jacoblee4709]

@@finiraelkhami8251Boothill still appreciates Robin's extra turns, and her ATK scalings aren't completed wasted on him either since he has Crit via his BE conversion trace. Boothill + Hunt March + Bronya + Robin is capable of 0 cycling the current MoC Argenti. Sure Boothill loves Ruan Mei but he isn't completely dependent on her. The only team Robin doesn't work well with is Firefly. That's it.
