Support NeoGAF

[PonyStation4]

Damn fucking cool animations. I didn't expect Augusta to be that fast. I was expecting something more along the lines of Zani.

I need to see what will pave down for Galbrena, because if Quiyuan actually ends up being solely dedicated to Augusta I might go for her and him instead.

From the leaks I've read, Augusta/Luno may work together.

Yinlin (main DPS)
Augusta (sub DPS) = Provides electro damage buff with her ultimate
Luno (buffer + healer + shielder) = Provides heavy attack damage buff for Augusta on outro, who scales off it

That said, it's clear Luno's best team is going to be with Jiyan with her heavy and aero buffs. Jiyan+Mortefi+Luno

 

[T4keD0wN]

I was thinking about pulling for Cantarellas S1.
Meanwhile Iuno coming in like:

I dont have any gauntlet characters, so looks like ill be pulling that weapon too. Cantas sequence must wait for her second rerun with corals ready this time.

Really hoping Iuno ends up being a solid support and working with Carthethyia at least a little bit.

The moon and sun in the sky are really nice details.

 

[Peroroncino]

Good thing they're doing that, it's gonna leak anyway, that way you control it and give it better exposure for more people to get hyped.

Augusta sub dps? She doesn't give that aura, but I wouldn't mind if they ended up doing Quiyuan the main electro DPS. But I doubt that.

Despite having her, I'm not keen to go back and play Yinlin as main dps to be honest.

Nankatsu The mods updated the title of the OT at my request, changing it from version 2.4 to 2.5 and removing the 1st anniversary part. Hope that's cool with you since you're the thread starter and owner of this OT.

Man, I've so such a god-like Hecate echo for my Phro, but considering that she basically has permanent +20% Crit Rate when her Resosonance Energy is not full, I've 103% Crit Rate basically all the time cuz of this:

It's such an overkill and I feel like I'm wasting Echo slot on Crit Rate instead of Crit DMG and 83% Crit Rate will be more than enough, but who knows how many mats I need to waste to get an Echo with similar stats again, if I even get one at all

If only excessive Crit Rate could automatically convert into Crit DMG...

My honest reaction:

 

[Agent_4Seven]

Forgot to post a few shots from 2.5 I made during my playthrough

What a beautiful location they've made and to say it was joy to explore is to say nothing. I wish it was Mt. Firmament-like in term of size so that we could explore it more, stay there longer, enjoy the vibes and such....

Calcharo can solo lower ToA floors eventually. For the harder stuff:
Havoc Rover + Verina + Sanhua is a proper team that you should be able to put together right now.

To get a team started you need just a healer and a good damage dealer, you should have 2 healers in Baizhi and Verina right now. As for a damage dealer Phrolova will do a good job.

Right now you can only get Phrolova and Roccia, both work with Havoc Rover and Verina, but Roccia is a bit of a waste. If you want to pull someone right now id suggest Phrolova. If you then decide to get Cantarella youll be able to split it into 2 pretty good and self-sufficient teams:
1. Havoc Rover + Verina + Sanhua

2. Phrolova + Cantarella + 3rd
(Cantarella can be substituted by Baizhi in the meantime and for 3rd ideally Danjin, but any subdps even Calcharo can suffice in Whimpering Wastes to start)

Or wait for Augusta and Iuno along with 2.6 reruns to be announced, its possible Augusta will be a very strong main dps and/or somehow work with Calcharo, we dont know yet.

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Looks like Iuno is Aero and she'll be using gauntlets.

Edit: I don't follow the leaks, so I've no idea if this was already known info. But anyways, now it's official.

 

[Nankatsu]

Man, Augusta gives me Malenia Blade of Miquella vibes with that long ass katana.

 

[Agent_4Seven]

Rumors were that Iuno will be Aero Support, but now that we know she's using gountlets, I think she'll be Sub DPS with Ciaccona as a Support instead. Oh yeah, there's going to be two new Echo sets in 2.6.

 

[Nankatsu]

Now that I think about it, if Qiuyuan is actually an electro support like the rumors say, electro could actually be the first element team to have 3 different colors for the same element.

Augusta = Red lightning
Yinlin = Purple lightning
Qiuyuan = Most likely green lightning

This is legit fire. After watching Augusta, I legit want a green lighting lone wolf samurai.

They could easily make a connection with the Azure Dragon, which in chinese mythology is connect to...green lightning.

Imagine they pull something like this:

Funny how they gave her 2 elding ring looking weapons and electromagnetism kit. She sounds more like her biggest enemy Radahn with his gravity bs on paper.

Rumors were that Iuno will be Aero Support, but now that we know she's using gountlets, I think she'll be Sub DPS with Ciaccona as a Support instead. Oh yeah, there's going to be two new Echo sets in 2.6.

Wonder if theyre 3 set pieces again? Fenricos echo reads as if it was for heavy atk + aero character, which makes Iuno come to mind.

Yup, sure looks like it, they just need to make him drop Aero version of the echo and that's it.

Fuck yes! I won the 50/50 and also managed to snag her weapon with just the pulls I grinded this past week, plus a few leftover pulls I had after getting Lupa. I was literally on my last pull when I got her weapon, lol! Now I'll def be going on a gacha ban until Iuno's banner.

Oh, and I also finished the new phantasma dreamland event and got her sigil, so I'm glad that's done as well!

You ditched Carlotta's Avatar?

She's coming for you:

Congratz on the pulls bro

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Nankatsu Thanks, man! I just built her up to a pretty solid spot (I need to wait for the next reset to max out her core skills), and I'm really happy with how she plays in this mix of F2P and premium team I've put together with Havoc Rover and SK. I actually just cleared Hazard Tower Floor 2 with this team in about 3 minutes. Still learning the rotations, so the gameplay I'll be showing here is not the best.



With SK buffs I've her at 100% crit rate 300+ crit damage.

 

[PonyStation4]

Luno full kit

Weapon = Gauntlet
Attribute = Aero

Normal attack = healing
Skill attack = healing + shields
Ult attack = healing + speed + skill cooldown
Outro = Heavy + Aero buff

Dang, this is a super solid build!

Oh, so she buffs Heavy attack?

Great for Augusta, amazingly good for Jiyan, since he gets both things from her outro.

This also enables more freedom for Qiuyuan, since he was rumoured to be Heavy outro buffer specific for Augusta.

Spoiler: "unfinished" Chisa model and 2.7-2.8 character list leak

Never would have expected that element for her.
We were rumored to get a havoc male in 2.7, looks like itll be Quiyuan unless that was wrong. Some of these elemental assignments just feel completely impossible to guess by appearance.

Havoc for Quiyuan seems a very weird choice. And I hope it's not that, because along with Glacio those are the elements I've invested less team build wise

Guy has aero written all over him, but with Carthetiya, Ciaconna and Iuno almost back to back, I think he won't be aero at all.

Electro fits the bill, and I wouldn't be surprised if they pull a situation like Phoebe with Zani.

Hope hes electro too cuz along with glacio, those 2 havent been getting a lot of attention lately, but at least Augusta is coming.

Aero, Havoc, Fusion, Spectro should take a backseat for a while.

 

[Agent_4Seven]

Thick Thighs Save Lives Duuuuude! Congrats! And that's a pretty solid build with SK buffs!

I've a better build myself now that I got a decent Hecate echo with the man Crit DMG stat (it's not lvl 25 yet so the end Crit DMG value will be higher):

With SK buffs it'll be ~95% Crit Rate and ~290 Crit DMG and I'm fine with that

So, I guess both of us need to win 50/50 again to get Iuno and Augusta respectively. We need all the luck in the world

 

[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

Agent_4Seven Thanks, bro! That's a pretty sweet Phrolova build you've got there as well!

Mavuika in Augusta's outfit on the left, and Augusta in Mavuika's outfit on the right. Honestly, Augusta looks so much hotter in Mavuika's oufit than in her default one! Hoping the modders will do their thing.
