Why I'm Pulling both Feixiao and Robin | Honkai: Star Rail

[@AnimeWineAuntie]

My Feixiao looks like a YANQING so I guess I’m back to saving for a few patches.

[@veezerrscharnhorst]

My condolences

[@zippora11]

So sorry 😢

[@kodarah1490]

You Are doing something wrong, maybe the crit is not enough

[@jean-thomato]

i did a crazy work by skipping feixiao and pulled for e2 robin instead lol .. quite lucky to win both 50/50s in a row

[@jmcMateo]

You're crazy! Good work. Winners win

[@DemronGlass]

the player base’s switch up on robin has been insane recently. I remember when everyone was saying to skip lol. she’s amazing

[@Nynzy]

Try using Feixiao with Bonajade, March 7th, and Aventurine. It is a bit unconventional but holy hell... that team is so fun to watch and so friendly to SP and gear investments~

[@glcsander]

I managed to get her and on the Robin banner got Robin plus Bronya, so far I like her gameplay and since I'm skipping rappa and Sunday I'm good for a while.

[@writerducky2589]

10:50 That's what I felt too. As much as I loved Penacony I also had issues with it, especially with how it seemed so disconnected from what had come before. The driving force in the previous storylines being the threat of the Stellaron, whereas in Penacony the Stellaron was basically just a footnote. I want to write an essay on it everytime I talk about it, but in short I've come to the conclusion that, as you said, Penacony was just a pit-stop and we're now going back to the REAL story (pun intended😅). Regardless, really like your videos, man.

[@merusotajio2222]

For me Penacony was the best for what it was , and that is because Penacony was the first of it's kind. we weren't just getting rid of the stellaron and then leaving , we learned deeply about it's peoples and the reason it is how it is not only that we had a much bigger vision of the universe of HSR and their inter relationship , we had villains who had substance unlike Cocolia and the lord ravager who were cartoonist villains. I think that the stellaron is boring because of how it just creates villain , and takes the blame away , I like how in Penacony it was used as a tool and not as an excuse to create a boss fight For me the break point was the second Xianzhou quest we had , it was kinda useless in the overarching plot but maybe I'm wrong , it was just too bland for my liking anyways I can expand on why I liked Penacony so much if someone wants me too, and it's not that your opinion is wrong (kinda) it's just that I highly disagree 😅

[@sky3fall866]

I personally didn’t mind the Stellaron being a minor footnote. It would be boring if every single Express adventure happened because we needed to solve a Stellaron. What I liked about Penacony was that it was very, very, ideological. The enemy wasn’t just a faceless monster, it had logic and emotions and a backstory and an overarching goal that from another point of view could even be considered heroic. It’s also why I liked Belobog. Sure, the target was the Stellaron, but my interpretation of the story is that the Stellaron in fact wasn’t the main enemy. The ideological conflict of Belobog, in my opinion, is about holding hope against nihilism. Cocolia went on and on about “a new world” but from what I can see, her so called “new world” was just a metaphor for laying down and giving up. Because that’s what she did. She couldn’t beat them so she joined them. Belobog’s whole story is about choosing to keep going despite challenges, despite the world seeming to be against you. As Bronya said, “even if we are destined for oblivion, we will go bravely, hand in hand into the darkness.” Even if fate declares your death, make a choice and fight against your fate. The lack of an ideological conflict is also why I didn’t really enjoy the Luofu. Sure, it was cool and all, but just seemed like the heroes were beating up on a faceless enemy, and even when Phantylia reveals herself it’s like… that’s it? Because the Annihilation Gang’s purpose is only to destroy, they’re just… too bland to be the final antagonist of a major arc like the Luofu.

[@henriquefernandes3510]

There's one really important thing: playing FuA with Feixiao is really really fun! Like probably the most fun I've had playing Star Rail since the dawn of DoT.

[@lobster714]

I lost my 50/50 on Robin, please pray for me guys😭😭

[@masterplusmargarita]

Honestly, I'm pretty lucky Feixiao came out this patch. If she wasn't running alongside Kafka and Black Swan when I'm the world's biggest Kafka simp and have been saving for a Black Swan rerun since the Firefly banner I would've definitely spent all my Jade pulling for her when the only FUA stuff I have is the free Ratio and a E0S0 Robin. I have also realized that the best way to figure out when a character is going to be archetype-enabling is when they're a mommy. Kafka. Black Swan. Feixiao. The one exception is Firefly, who instead of mommy is GF.

[@mgarlop]

Nice and well expressed opinions, thank you.

[@Mystra]

I got her and Robin. Never been happier with E0S1 and E1S1 before. Just so good.

[@ggease6030]

I’m in a dilemma whether I should pull feixiao or not as a F2P, because I’m currently lacking in any 5 star dps, and I already have Jiaoqiu for a future Acheron. I have about 241 rolls and I’d prefer to use them max efficiently.

[@prisimatica]

Definitely wait for Acheron and E0S1 her if you want to clear content. She might be coming next patch as well.

[@stribijev]

@@prisimatica It feels as if you are a newer HSR player. If you struggle to clear harder content - and thus are missing on stellar jades and other premium currency (like feathers) - you'd better get a 5-star DPS character as soon as possible. This is probably not that important if you clear all stages but the last ones. I have several now, Seele, Jingliu, Boothill and Acheron, all E0 and only Seele has got her signature light cone, and they all helped me to get all the rewards. Surely, now I am mostly using Boothill and Acheron now.

[@ggease6030]

@@stribijev so far I’ve only unlocked memory of chaos this week, and my dps rn is serval and Dan hang, but somehow my harmony Mc deals more dmg with super break. My jiaoqiu and bronya help support the teams separately depending on weakness break . Ig you could say I’m still a newbie because I started since yunli banner

[@stribijev]

@@ggease6030 Jiaoqiu is great for Acheron (I have him with Tutorial LC on Eagle set and he is amazing), so make sure you have enough jades/tickets when she's out (and yeah, she can come back next patch alongside Rappa). Do not invest much into Dan Heng and actually, you do not need to invest much into Serval either as you are going to get and use Acheron (Lightning) in Pure Fiction anyway (and you will pair her with Jiaoqiu on the Herta shop Nihility light cone in Pure Fiction). OK, so you might actually want to skip this patch unless you want to pre-invest into Robin (as for me, I skipped her due to lack of funds, and I am going to get her now, I think, although I want Acheron's signature badly and need to save for it).

[@TheCrimsonFacker]

​@@ggease6030 i recommand the same as te first guy. Having jiaoqiu does bring you nicely to an archon team. Robin is not a bad addition but bronya should serve you well. So dont go for any of the 5* dps now and save it for Archon. You might be missing some 5* sustian units, so it might be useful to get Lingsha. Gallangar, gepard and bailu, may serve you aswell, but if you dont have them, she may be useful. Beating MOC is nice, but beating it will come eventualy. Just build you account up, and beat what ever challange you can now

[@ggahsoo_]

I started playing 2 months ago and had 300 pulls ready and got both in around 180 for my first full team (fei robin march8 galla), debating on gambling for e1 for robin or saving for Acheron and adventurine and maybe Sunday if he’s cracked (I pulled JQ as my first char).

[@mislina8587]

i think saving might be better since now we know that chars are rerunning way faster you can get robin e1 on her 2nd rerun

[@Fakejordans...]

I was going to only pull Robin but got her extremely early so I threw a 10 pull at the Feixaio banner and got her immediately. Thank you Rnjesus. Lol

[@maevethefox5912]

I somehow stumbled into e1 Robin and Fei in 60 pulls. Never had luck like that in a gacha before

[@kazuhah1743]

the powercreep is getting stronger. the boss HP will be adapted until the powercrept units are the entry ticket

[@ScorpMatoro]

Im really glad i saved for feixiao got her lc too, i had robin already going for e1 for the rest of the patch and next patch im going to pick up topaz' lightcone i have aventurine too but i am very excited to try different characters neglecting sustain in general

[@nebulagray88]

Idk how it performs for other teams, but my newly pulled Robin doesnt have energy problems running her with Feixiao. I don't even have Aventurine but FX and Moze attack so frequently that Robin's energy gain is insane. Her LC is definitely low prio, im just getting her e1 cos a teamwide 24% dps increase is insane, and this is coming from a monthly pass only player that hates vertical investment.

[@RiderOmega]

Personally ended up getting Feixiao after missing a 50/50 and continuing for her and whiffed a 50/50 on Robin. I might not've done the the Robin pulls but I got no Moze off Fei banner and decided that that potentiall sweetened the pot enough to be worthwhile. I might be able to go back and snag her before she's gone again but I'll have to do a check of my exact resources before she leaves. I started in April and played inconsistently till FF banner where I got her to e1. Fei seemed like a good opportunity to lock down some added versatility for my roster in follow up attacks and wind damage. I know she won't do PF but I'm a little less worried about that for now cause Herta is free and there's more overlap between MoC and AS, so its a little more cost effective to worry about those first. Overall my pulls were good outside of both 50/50s giving Welt. Poor poor Welt. At least he's new so I can get standard tickets out of him.

[@erycknovaes1420]

She seems *very* healthy, actually

[@maxwellfolina8358]

I agree that feixiao and Robbin is probs the right play, but as a newer player who’s always been interested in dot I went for Kafka and BS. I think if feixiao spoke to me a bit more it would’ve been a harder decision

[@Skyace13]

As a F2P DoT enjoyer I was looking forward to Robin because I need Ruan Mei for firefly. I was hoping I could slowly upgrade the archetype overtime. No amount of saving could’ve prepared me for this patch :(

[@mango-float]

I just put Acheron and a sustain with Kafka and Black Swan. My other team is Firefly or Jingliu so either of them needs Ruan Mei too so I had to compromise

[@merusotajio2222]

I'm skipping everyone for Aventurine and Acheron's lightcone, Feixiao is nice but I already have the whole follow up attack team built (Topaz, Ratio , Robin) I'd love to get Kafka cuz she's my favorite character but the Dot niche isn't doing well so I'll wait for another rerun when Dot will get a better support, Lingsha is just annoying in the quest so I don't even want her no matter how well she heals ! And if anyone has any tips to give me for who to pull I'll be happy to hear it :)

[@HexaDecimus]

I got lucky with 50/50 on both Feixiao and Robin. Im expecting my luck to run out with Lingyang.

[@mcbill7352]

i hope i can get both

[@sirsuntar8717]

Got E0 Robin early, was hoping for e2 Moze so I can finally run a decent FuA team next patch with Dr.Ratio/Moze/Robin/Lingsha. Only got E1. Hoping he'll be available from an event soon :D Tried the Acheron/JQ/Robin/Gallagher qpq strat, doesn't work without S1 Acheron. You're just too short on stacks. Well, I was gonna go for that LC either way. Not sure what LC Robin should carry in that setup either. Going with event lc for now. Maybe I'll buy Bronya's after some testing with Acheron. Tempted to pull for Feixiao and snack some Moze Eidolons in the process, but my biggest issue with those double hunt teams is lack of viable lc. I only got Hertha shop Hunt lc, no other good f2p option. Really wondering if I wanna start going for some universally usefull limited LCs like Topaz' for Hunt and Yunli for Destruction... Don't have any limited lc currently. Also, I got a built Ratio and don't really see the need to upgrade him. I got FF E2 and Acheron E1 as universal DPS, only real usecase for Feixiao for me would be Wind AS?

[@RaikamiX]

Gonna have to skip fei xiao for linghsa. Having sustain issues right now. And I wanna save for sunday. Thank God 2.6 is an easy skip

[@toilakhang000]

Lmk if you pull aventurine rerun

[@Wabafet_]

I had 70 wishes, and i got Feixiao, i want to do the better team that i can so... i have a question. What should be my priority? Robin > Topaz > Light Cone of Feixiao? Or in what order you consider? (DATA: I have all 4* + all perma 5*(except Welt)(but including D.Ratio) + DanhengTeam(Sparkle Luchoa tyngium) and Jingliu+Huhou)

[@TheCrimsonFacker]

Dont have either, but if you are f2p or light spender Robin>S1 Feixiao=Robin e1. Robin is Feixiao best mate and you may get Moze and have Marco 7th hunt. S1 Feixiao for the crazy ult dmg But e1 Robin gives everyone 24% element pierce. Topaz is more luxury and can cover fire weakness i feel.

[@Wabafet_]

@@TheCrimsonFacker Thanks!!!! n.n I Only buy some of the 5$ Passes, like 4.. and i play since DanHeng Illumina

[@TheCrimsonFacker]

@@Wabafet_ you're welcome. To expand a bit more on Topaz and to share what i have seen on the internet. Topaz is a still a solid premium support for Feixiao. But reached her best potential at e1s1. (I only have e0 T-T) Between the character, Topaz has de highest attacks frequency. Moze e2 or e6 is topaz light. But because he is lightning, he might add more dmg to the team if enemies are weak to lightning but not to fire. March is also good for feixiao but doesn't do as many follow ups. Her strength comes in being free, good for breaking, and hitting those weak to her element, but not others. Robin in the end is Feixiao strongest support, so getting e0 alone is nice, but e1 makes alot of difference. Even if i may not like Robin, she is really good for your account. Her strongest team is follow up, but she can still elevate other team comps or characters besides follow up.

[@Zergling.]

@@Wabafet_ Yeah like the other guy said, topaz is strong for feixao but its premium for her, the more important is Feixao and Robin, and with moze and march 7 i will say aventurine is better to complete the team than topaz, feixao and robin s1 are better too and then E1 robin, only then will i focus on premium topaz.

[@Wabafet_]

@@TheCrimsonFacker ​ @Zergling. THANKS YOU BOTH!!! i will try to farm all the game to get robin > robin e1 > feixiao s1 And if i dont get the robin e1, i will probably take advantage of the wishes that robin has thrown away, and try to get topaz. But only in that case n.n

[@nelumb000]

Can someone tell me if i should get robin if i cant have her lightcone? I was guaranteed but now im hesitating..

[@stribijev]

Since I have Boothill, I am not inclined to pull for Feixiao. Since I had to skip Robin (fully F2P and ran out of jades/tickets when she was first released). I think now is the optimal moment. And I am no DoT enjoyer, this archetype is fine but even when well invested it does not feel satisfying for me.

[@art_supplies_are_delectable]

i won the 5050 on Feixiao, now going for Robin. Hope to Aeons i win two times in a row, ive been more unlucky than lucky in this damned game 😂

[@lestercruz4073]

Yow we both have the same DPSs. I only have Jingliu and Acheron as well. I pulled for Feixiao and Robin as well. My Teams are: Jingliu, Bronya, Ruan Mei, Huohuo Acheron, Sparkle, Silverwolf, Fu Xuan Feixiao, Robin, March hunt, Aventurine. What's yours?

[@corvoyu]

12:20 My bunch of "half-made" teams destroy every single endgame content with cheaper cost too unlike the much more expensive vertical investment. Whats funny is that usually vertical investment people tend to make a lot of excuses and over-explain whether to pull or skip just like you lmao

[@toufonglee5073]
