Lingsha MIGHT Be The MOST FLEXIBLE Sustainer In Honkai: Star Rail!

[@Faudiedauw]

Yo Dauwdies, are you guys gonna pull for Lingsha? Make sure to join the discord -> discord.com/invite/rvC6EFQBzQ

[@ABC-yj6cy]

Definitely, I'm putting her in my E2S1 FF team. And then put Gallagher in my E2S1 acheron team. Win-win

[@michaelbradet-legris5739]

One thing that hasn't been mentioned is her synergy with Jade, for the few who pulled her. She's easily one of the top 3 debt collector targets, along with Herta and Blade. Since her skill, FuA, and ult all hit the entire field, she can generate huge amounts of stacks for Jade. With her skill and ult action advancing her FuA talent as well, she generates even more stacks. A single ult can potentially generate 10 stacks for Jade. Also, since the DPS isn't the debt collector, it opens up other characters like Ratio or Topaz as the second DPS to clear the fatties in PF, while Herta can take the other side.

[@wongo6828]

I also think Lingsha might have some good synergy with Himeko in both her own Break team and PF. Gallagher was already a good driver for breaking Fire enemies to activate Himeko's FUA, Lingsha can just do the same except instead of single target, it's AOE. Add that she has her own FUA through the bunnies and she gets some good use in Pure Fiction alongside Himeko.

[@Why_So_Mean]

it'd just be better to run herta who is a free e6 why would you pull her for jade debt collector?

[@michaelbradet-legris5739]

​@@Why_So_Mean It just depends on the units you have, and how invested they are. Sure, if you have a full DoT or acheron team on one side, and Jade + Herta on another side, that works, but I don't. For me, splitting Herta and Jade so they can each clear a side is beneficial, and with Lingsha, I don't need to worry about stack generation on Jade side. Also, it lets me run Topaz with Jade to help kill the boss in the third wave easier.

[@MiArcangel]

Who?

[@velvetmoon6125]

clear the fatties on PF LOL girl you ate that

[@daitoushoutou]

Good news for Lingsha, Acheron, nihility, and DoT fans. When we visit the Greek/Greco-Roman inspired world of Amphoreus in 3.0+, they apparently have the best mechanics to deal with a troubling enemy mechanic which will hobble many current comps and metas. Take all of this with a huge grain of salt for now.

[@daitoushoutou]

These "minions" on Amphoreus may be like Lordly Trashcans on Penacony: stronger in the overworld; weaker in endgame modes, such as Pure Fiction. Still annoying, however.

[@Dyleau1999]

im already pre-farming for her :) mainly because of my break team

[@UltimateAnimeGuru]

Ditto. Already have some serviceable relics for her, hoping to get a some better ones that will actually roll into Break or Spd rather everything else!😢

[@Zoeila]

I got to try her out in story and was really impressed. And her healing was way better than I expected

[@yinndragon7988]

I like this vid ty, I don’t plan on using her on break either, with Kafka and black swan, and then maybe with my jingliu as well, I don’t have any abundance 5 star limited banner characters

[@matteoren6702]

Adventurine give follow ups only when attacked and stack is full. Lingsha tho can give 100% advance for her bunny with ult. And give advance % to bunny with skill. Probably the only downfall is she going to be so hungry. But if you have e1 firefly you’re probably going to be okey.

i have e6 Gallagher and i am planning on (hopefully) getting e1 Lingsha, i will use her in my team of e1 Firefly, Harmony Trailbazer and Hunt March (i need my Ruan Mei in my DoT team, my primary team) and Lingsha seems like a good choice as she will be good as March's Shifu, i struggle to get full points in PF and Lingsha should help there and it will free up Gallagher for future teams. I have Lingsha's relics, trace mats, a light cone and enough to get her at e0 guaranteed already Also the fact that Lingsha is like a more powerful Gallagher but also might as well be a Pseudo-Erudition character too with follow up attacks/heals/cleanses and helps break teams especially will really help me in PF and AS as i am stuck on 11/12 stars on both of those right now

[@RetryAgainAgain]

Ah, a fellow crit hater I see.

[@FinnHuman6378]

If anyone is reading this and you're thinking of getting a new or first sustain, Aventurine is probably up for a rerun in 2.6 just save for him. He has better value overall for your Jades. Lingsha needs her E1 to be almost the same value as him.

[@dachosens1]

because i dont have a 2nd limited sustainer lingsha is looking like a really good choice! will be benching my gepard as well xdd followup, summon (potentially), and break synergy, even some debuff is great also i just like how she looks and character (thats the reason why i have the mono quantum team in the first place, silverwolf and sparkle are pog) lingsha's fuyuan and fuxuan... xdd

[@BrettTracy713]

they need to make substats on our relic selectable instead of random it’s just too difficult to get good relics

[@BrettTracy713]

[@LM-pg9hy]

im a newer player and lacking 5 star sustains so i plan to pull aventurine and lingsha because she works with fua break and should work with the rumored summon meta for 3.0 so i think those 2 sustains would last me the longest before the get powercrept

[@AZeX.1]

I agree with you she has a massive potenial and + the mobs are going to change and become stronger and stronger and gallagher cant keep up with the meta thats when linsha comes around a lot of cleanse and emergency healing definetly pulling

[@UltimatePollo3495]

Wtf gallagher can't keep up literally showcases of him against hoolay and sustains just fine mate

[@AZeX.1]

@@UltimatePollo3495 maybe it's because the other teamates are so strong you don't even need a sustain in the comp. Enemies are getting more crowd controls over time and when you get crowd controlled what you gotta do? Skill with Gallagher that ain't enough and it's not reasonable for the game itself they want revenue from lingsha it's like they create a problem and sell you the solution that's basically it

[@UltimatePollo3495]

@AZeX.1 same can be applied to lingsha she provided clense for allies but has no cc resistant like gallagher in her kit meaning if u get ccd woth lingsha she can't do her job meanwhile gallagher e1 literally makes it so he never gets ccd

[@AZeX.1]

@@UltimatePollo3495 thats right but lingha doesnt even need skill to cleanse. every time her rabbit goes she cleanses every ally and she got an insane amount of emegerncy heal but gallagher on the other hand his healing is mid af for mobs like hoolay and upcoming mobs in the future

[@UltimatePollo3495]

@AZeX.1 gallagher can still solo sustain against hoolay though and what if ur ccd and its not rabbit turn u would have to skill aswell and at least with gallagher he can sp neutral basic ult skill

[@JorgeOmarRayaGonzález]

as a returning player that doesn´t have aventurine nor gallagher, I plan making her Jade´s debt collector and March´s shifu on my team with a flex slot, after we get Rappa, then I´m making my super break team with HTB, March, Rappa and Lingsha, is it a meta team? who cares? in my mind this team seems fun and at the end of the day games are supposed to be fun

[@ZiziDxv]

you talk a lot about lingsha, and you even assume that her damage will be crazier than aventurine, I assume you are following and enjoying the leak so far, but basically you are not a beta tester, as one of the people who tested the beta test I would like to say that Lingsha's damage can be said to be crazier than Aventurine's "if you bring HMC or at least on the Firefly team, apart from that her damage is still below Aventurine's, then regarding comfort, what do you mean by comfort? If you talk about flexibility, yes that's right, the only party that Lingsha cannot be entered, it is the bottom 2 dps. But if you ask about comfort in terms of keeping the team alive, then I will answer that Aventurine is much more comfortable than Lingsha, you will remain comfortable and safe when the enemy deals high-scale damage.

[@Why_So_Mean]

Yeah I don't feel like a unit such as lingsha is a good recommendation for people if they have a 5 star sustain or a Gallagher e6, since he does a great job against fire weak enemies which is the current meta. and lingsha provides not very much for teams outside of break unless if she breaks the enemies since superbreak is tied to hmc which is a niche unit used for said teams. her damage would be much worse than Aventurine in an actual non-superbreak battle. I feel like a lot of your arguments aren't really sound like a mono pyro team since their synergy isn't great. (Firefly without hmc is a joke unless she breaks but her allies could break them instead in this kind of team.) All of her "break efficiency" and "break" and "cleanse" could be nice but are either usless outside of firefly teams that are against non-fire weak enemies or done better by units like huohuo that do it passively while actually providing buffs for teams that aren't as "niche"

[@user-ot4ly9dp1c]

That's the point. Not everyone has an E6 Gallagher. Hell, some people are still stuck with an E0 or E2 Gallagher. It's easier to get an E0 limited 5 star than an E6 4 star

[@BrettTracy713]

you’ve intrigued me once again, now I am considering pulling on Lingsha as well. Another great video!

[@Massii6]

Lingsha looks pretty good, but I ll get her in rerun, I dont have FF e1, Ill keep gallagher

[@BrettTracy713]

Faudie, I have a question for you. What do you think is stronger healing or shielding? I use adventurine and obviously his shielding is just ridiculous. I never go into my Health bar so what do you think is better?

[@ABC-yj6cy]

Shields are useless when your characters can't attack due to being CC'ed. Sure aventurine gives effect res but it's so shitty that your characters get CC'ed regardless.

[@BrettTracy713]

@@ABC-yj6cy cool what about effect resistance? I have high effect resistance on most of my teams. It’s rare when one of my characters is stunned.

[@user-ot4ly9dp1c]

@@BrettTracy713 It's rare but it still can happen. And when it happens, you often have to reset your run (in MoC, PF, and AS). There are pros and cons to both sides. Abundance has the advantage of easy access to cleanse. Preservation has the advantage of preventing one shots.

The only downside to her is being sp hungry (coming from a luocha/aventurine/fuxuan user), unless you can do basic>skill> basic then she might be SP neutral like Huohuo, kinda disappointing that the rabbit stays if she consumes SP

Might get her in the future ,but not sure, since I ain't very found of her design and I care for designs as much as fun to play, so it is a big disadvantage for me, that I don't like her design and personality is bland so far too

I think you should value the integrity of your word and content a little more. It just seems like you completely brush over things with surface level knowledge and don't ever attempt to cross reference or even critically think independently of your own word. At about 10:30 in your video I think it's at it's worst. First you ubiquitously claim that Lingsha > Gallagher, while on a surface level this is true there aspects and nuance to Gallagher's kit that make this a little less clear in all situations. i.e. his debuff, his SP positivity and his ability to hold Quid Pro Quo in combination allow for some things no other sustains atp can do. On top of that in single target, their dmg in break teams is pretty comparable outside of Eidalons and s1. 2nd you constantly claim that Lingsha is a flexible unit (?) because of her ability to increase the break efficiency and deals a lot of damage, but the latter two things are completely dependent on the enemies being fire weak and being in a break focused team to get any meaningful damage (her atk% multipliers are low). Essentially, outside of a break team she's a luocha side grade, trading a buff remove and neverending healing for a follow up and team wide cleanse. 3rd you claimed that she's better than Adventurine because of her 'flexibility', citing her team wide cleanse to start with. It is pretty clear that preventing CC at all is better than cleansing it, because being CC'd can effect your turn order, cleansing as a reactive measure is inherently worse because you can still suffer from the effects of it even if it's cleansed immediately afterwards. Also Lingsha must use skill points for her healing unlike adventurine, so she isn't necessarily "more comfortable". I just don't the emphasis on her damage either, because she won't deal any unless she's in a break team. I definitely think you're entitled to your own opinion but usually opinions about something like what's best in a game based in numbers is built on some kind of imperical evidence or even anecdotal experience rather than pure vibes, I think what you're promoting, this being a gacha game, is almost predatory. I think you should think with more care what you could be doing; pushing someone to spend money when they don't have to even if it's stochastic. all love man, do whatever you want at the end of the day.

Wait for a couple of months and I guarantee you will change your mind. Do you seriously think Gallagher with his single target healing and single target cleanse is going to survive the entirety of the game? With new enemies gaining new mechanics and getting harder, he will fall behind eventually.
