I think the whole thing with the qq misplays and stuff isn't anything to worry about or overthink. You're not advertising yourself as a guide maker or expert, the content is clearly for entertainment and not focused on optimal gameplay. Just keep learning and enjoying the game and the videos will keep being fun and interesting 🙂‍↕️

[@ACatThatCantSing]

As another Himeko main, I related so much with this video. Also, it's a special sort of pain realizing that your Lingsha might do more dmg than your superbreak Himeko.😭😭

[@Nymnesis]

I have deadass considered pulling for Lingsha simply so I can build her full crit and see how much damage she can do LOL Unfortunately atm I’m saving for the upcoming amphorious characters so I’m skipping her again, but maybe I’ll pull her if she survives the upcoming patches

[@AnnaChicky]

@@Nymnesis as someone that pulled Lingsha just for the funny Critsha comp; it's absolutely worth it & extremely fun! BUT ONLY if you have the resources to spent for it. I'm not interested in any of the Amphoreus characters at the moment, so I had the pulls to waste on characters I had originally skipped the first time.

[@SaraAliciaCaster]

I got lingsha cus I needed a stronger healer She has 90% crit dmg, and 80 crit rate Because I'm using 2 erudition (the Herta and jade) lingsha gets more crit dmg And despite have 2600+ atk She hits, so God damn low I don't know what I'm doing wrong

[@AnnaChicky]

@@SaraAliciaCaster who's the 4th member in that team? Robin would be perfect for that. and how low is her damage exactly? making Lingsha the debt collector and Robin to boost the entire teams damage should easily make her hit 100-200k aoe dmg

[@SaraAliciaCaster]

@@AnnaChicky don't have robin, she was the first character I was willing to skip and save up The 4th character cycles through "do I want to preserve, do I want to buff, do I want to do more dmg" So it's mostly been either himeko or rem mc

[@admiralalyssa]

Himiko may not be meta, but the level of happiness you can sense through this video is palpable. I had a smile the whole time as your own enjoyment was infectious. I hope you keep going and getting better with every video, in all honesty, as long as you are having fun so will your audience

[@Hlhlh_l]

Luckily for us she is currently meta. My E6 Hineko is insane in most gamemodes.

i hear "time to twirl" and "you won't get away" every time i close my eyes

[@Scuffed2520]

Hey, this is my first video of yours that I've seen, but you're doing great! It's so nice to hear someone actually have fun with HSR and your himeko hitting those numbers make me PROUD to have lost my 50/50 to her that many times.

[@tray839]

Keep up the fantastic work Nymn!!

[@Nymnesis]

Jesus christ hello, you all have been so sweet to me on this video

[@ember1927]

@ OFCCC

[@aidanarmaggeddon]

You're pretty fun to watch and a breath of fresh air + relatable rolls. I look forward to next vids

[@DoctorWilsonVer1]

I'm sorry I thought I was watching a HSR Himeko video, not a Marvel Rivals Winter Soldier video. 21:50 "AGAIN. AGAIN. AGAIN. AGAIN." Wonderful stuff, Nymn, keep it up.

[@jorvikk]

i love love LOVE these types of videos omg

[@jbll69420]

You are one of the only star rail content creators I actually watch and enjoy. lots of other content creators focus on meta and damage, but your channel is mainly about having fun. Thank you for making this channel and keep up the amazing work!

[@Skyloluvsu]

You videos are so underrated oh my god, like the editing, the thumbnails?!?! You do your big one with your vids😭💞

[@Nymnesis]

AAAA THANK YOUUU 🤍🤍

Im so happy people are enjoying them

[@Nymnesis]

@pluhsino I never realized how much I cursed until I started editing myself LMAOOO

[@pluhsino]

@ lol it happens to the best of us

[@galli__]

Love herta going sicko mode on that poor trash can at 15:53 😂

[@unknown20005]

ah yes hellspawn finally something that i can actually relate to

[@Siberiasun2]

Himiko has been a farm god since the start and now she is a pure fiction god :D

[@Kiraspirin]

Now i wanna build my himeko Rip my resources qwq Also really nice Video I am hyped for the next(i subbed :3)

[@Nymnesis]

She’s honestly worth it to have for PF alone, I had literally never full cleared PF until I slotted himeko (who wasn’t even built as it was before this video)

[@wogiebonbon6287]

I built her after winning fugue then I slotted her as herta's sub erudition. She became a fast charging battery for herta when i used fugues skill on her and so far its a fun comp

[@TenebraeUbr]

Me? Play Honkai Star Rail for the sole purpose of obtaining Himeko? Way ahead of you. Thanks for the fun vid, Nymn!

[@darthmcd6251]

Thank you for your service! o7

[@Sabedoriadesbalanceada47]

21:49 Not the silver soldier trauma 😭😭

[@MIZUKI5THFOCUS]

11:47 funfact, on team 1, everyone is tilting their head the same way

[@BananaHace]

I've never related more to someone else's relic farming. Spending tons and tons of time and resources just to scrape together whatever you kinda sorta have.

[@Nymnesis]

When in doubt, steal another persons relics LMAOO

[@Spaghetti-kb6mf]

A note i want to add when you bring up the choice of boots Generally on most characters (especially in a team without an action advance support) you'd want to prefer speed boots to reach a general breakpoint which you grants you more turns (There are some exceptions to this but thats a general rule of thumb) Of course, Himeko is a very friendly character when it comes to friendly comps as you already tested, so continue making videos like these!! They're really fun and charming

[@Nymnesis]

You're so goddamn sweet, thank you

[@Hunterofyeets]

I run Himeko as a Sub DPS for my Rappa team. She does work with fugues second break mechanic.

[@TheKabukimann]

Himeko and fugue are a nice combo for the wave endgame modes. Getting almost double the breaks for Himekos FUA is so nice.

[@RealWorldGaming]

I spent two weeks maxing out Hook and Arlan and now they are in all my teams doing 300k- 340k damage and the only thing that goes in my mind was: Why is this working?!

[@sussyimposter9878]

fire

[@GtdAquataine]

At a certain point in the vid Nymn is rapid firing questions and it just hit the funny button like the Beyond Belief memes

[@megaman01996]

I'm mainly subsrcibing cause you said hell spawn Nice way to get the sub XD

[@amaeo5170]

I got lucky and got Himiko as my starting 5-star. It took til preparing for 2.3's final battle for me to properly build her up.

[@BuffySwartz]

Himeko is one of my wives❤❤ glad my baby getting some love tnx ❤ Kafka and Acheron are already married to each other but I do share ❤❤ just got Jade. Now I need black swan. And that new Foxy chick for my waifu harem❤

[@josueravena3464]

Thank you for this semi-guide for Himeko, since I run a husbando account and can't run female characters as a challenge but for the sake of jades and progression. I will build her and once we have a male fire erudition; you get the gist. Some would like to do break himeko for the delays and the procs and some does crit builds it comes down to personal preference.

[@firestar6]

She's always been my favorite in these games, I mean I legit c6 Mavuika in genshin even though I know she's not actually Himeko but still. I'm glad that recently a random wheel gave me her to build, I'm in the middle of trying to buuld everyone as I want to play a everyone at least once and I want to have fun with it and yeah Himeko won first. I did get Fugue and heard she actually makes her usefull so might as well

[@mousysaint9143]

Himeko is by far the best standard banner DPS, if you wanna elevate her performance E1 Fugue is massive cuz it means you can skip RM and use better supports for a super strong hypercarry Himeko. Sure whaling for hypercarry Himeko isn't smart pulling decision, but like it's Himeko she deserves it

[@Nymnesis]

Fugue E1 was actually already on my list of things I wanted, along with her LC so I can give Pela her LC back It'll be a while before I can go for it, but I think it'll be worth it, but I am also still getting Ruan Mei as she's a little too broken to skip again esp as a Firefly haver LMAO

[@sjaakbakker9944]

Himeko, our crit and superbreak queen

[@Johnny_Anime]

This made my day

[@dvl_jho]

Tried her with THE Herta in pure fiction and it was absolute cinema.

[@imoutoofthebox7372]

as someone who owns an E1 FF, and an E0S1 Rappa, unfortunately Himeko barely helps with anything, though if I wanted to build Himeko, I have a Xuyei that has hybrid crit-break god relics for Iron Calvery (also Iron Calvery is the best for Himeko so uh.... nice grand duke set :3)

[@pondypoo]

Definitely subbed ❤

[@farhanplayze5555]

You know you can fo to places faster if u press F4 then go to the section of items you want to fatm and then presenter to get tpd there.

[@Aiden5763]

Really like the thumbnail

[@zieek1]

Love your voice.

[@row100]

Imagine being in college 😄. It's my first year and I'm going into nursing 🥲. Great vid btw!

[@Nymnesis]

@@row100 good luck with nursing school my fella, I’m going into cyber security myself lol

[@row100]

@Nymnesis Cyber security sounds tough imo. Wanna see my Himeko

[@VioTUmbra]

You can imagine my depression when I didn’t get Fugue so Himeko could go crazy in PF

[@shadowbuddy8034]

E2 Sparkle? Based, and I'm not just saying that because i have the same XD I love my little Elation gremlin

[@Nymnesis]

The eventual goal is E6S1 >:)

[@buzzy2792]

This couldnt have come out at a better time, I just got Himeko to E1 (missed on Jade D:) and pulled her weapon the next day, not sure if its worth investing haha

[@hadimustafa3378]

The 1% man spares no one iykyk Also i don't know if u noticed but fugue's second break bar depletes regardless of weakness so at the end u could've broken the first weakness with firefly and then broken the second bar will Gallagher to squeeze out one more FuA

[@Nymnesis]

One day Pokke will escape the 1% One day LOL

[@taip.obuolys.obuolys]

I love this

[@Joshua-pn4yw]

Spin to infinity and win with himeko :3

[@yavemedina8196]

10Q for building himeko I wanted to see the experience I saw this in my recommendations

[@yanagishuji1820]

Mine is usable until moc 10 as a hypercarry more that than she need fugue or dual DPS setup 😅

[@Shadowsfromwithin13]

I used to have a real bad time with pure fiction...Until I built both Himeko and mini Herta. Been smooth sailing ever since!

[@nicklasastra]

Herta himeko and the herta fun team

[@polak1335]

You remind me of OkCode videos of HSR. Good times.

[@Nymnesis]

@@polak1335 I’ve actually never watched their content surprisingly, but I’m glad I can remind you of good content 🤍

[@heilamwether8911]

As a e5s1 Himeko haver. (I’m F2P, I have lost too many 50/50s ;-; ) I happily condone this message.

[@Nymnesis]

Unironically the opposite problem I have, I haven't lost a 50/50 in a while but it also means I am lacking really nice standard banner eidolons LMAOOO

[@LucidDreams024]

I don't care if people say sparkle ✨️ is power crept or shit. I love her to pieces and I will pull her the moment she gets a rerun

[@DanielLee-c2j]

Me looking at my himeko......time to build you

[@tempest.123]

Himeko Is Just Way To Close To Heart.. I'm Focusing On Feixiao & Firefly Though 😕🔥

[@BartSimpson3397]

I’m very new to HSR so I had a question about my current ideas for teams. Firefly, Fugue, Bailu, Harmony MC Planning on getting Robin this patch to pair with Jade, Puppet Herta and Gallagher Good ideas?

[@Nymnesis]

@@BartSimpson3397 Robin fits into a lot of teams and frankly is one of the best supports in the game, she’s worth pulling pretty much always because of the huge attack buffs and the full team advance forward basically just being broken Also because you have firefly, be on the lookout for a Ruan Mei banner to pair into that break team as the 50% buff to your break efficiency + the fact Ruan Mei keeps them broken for longer will be a huge help Also frankly move Gallagher over to the firefly team if you can manage it, he both is a break healer himself and can take advantage of the fire weakened implant that firefly gives 🤍

[@BartSimpson3397]

@ Thank you so much! I subscribed and look forward to more content :D

[@falion609]

My team is E1 Himiko, E1 Fugue, E0 MC rememberence (don't know how to pronounce it) and E0 Galiguer, and it's great.

[@Nymnesis]

@@falion609 honestly I’m thinking about picking up Fugues E1 on next rerun I still don’t have Ruan Mei (I will be picking her up next rerun) but having even more break efficiency sounds hilarious

[@falion609]

@Nymnesis defenitly, and don't forget about Imaginary MC, is a good substitute

[@CallMeNik-kl6mn]

Cool

[@redbuno]

reminding me i never finished the torna dlc for x2

[@friendlyguest4118]

Did you draw thumbnail art? Looks great

[@Nymnesis]

@friendlyguest4118 I didn’t, it’s drawn by the amazing nekotachin on Bluesky and Twitter She’s done almost every thumbnail I’ve ever used and she’s incredible at capturing the vibe I want 🤍

[@friendlyguest4118]

@Nymnesis cool

[@BeyondEvenfall]

ur voice fills me with gender envy

[@atraxisdarkstar]

[@Sckysz]

am I the only one that thinks she has a really good VA voice? I feel like if she voiced a character like Guinaifen or just like a silly character, you would for sure fit in entertaining video also! silly spin break build

[@Nymnesis]

I want you to know this comment made my entire goddamn week

[@Sckysz]

@Nymnesis haha no problem! glad I could have that effect with my comment 😄 excited to see if it comes true and to see your channel pop off soon!

Do It break

[@yoloroki1329]

[@BlazenR3d]

The only reason you ever need to build himeko is that she has a fucking orbital laser beam Other characters might be stronger than her easier to build then herr but do they have a big ass orbital laser? Didn't think so

[@dlczoronoa8370]

sub cause why not

[@yourlocal711]

skibidi toilet first

[@emhaihd3182]

Idk why yall need that much crit rate lol. I always get around 50% crit rate and the rest goes all into crit damage. Still crits like 90% of the time.

[@dominica5855]

Thanks for trying and making content about Himeko. I see that is how casual player would play her. U did made a lot of mistake nor having optimal team/rotation but u having fun. The content have gone too hard for Himeko to do amazing with little invest tho. She still can do amazing but probaly only for those whom really dedicated for her. I mean I did a 0 cost 40k run with Asta/Herta/Gallargher, but the was hardcore optimal gameplay and I have been building her since 1.3. At least u are having fun. That is the most important of playing a game
