Do we have any expected astrite numbers we can get through the course of 2.6?

Farmed a bit more and I'm currently sitting at 237 pulls + 22 radiant tides and 7 forging tides.

I'll probably have to swipe if I'm dreaming on getting Augusta, Galbrena and Qiuyuan .

The bright side is that Qiuyuan is probably the only male coming this year. Resources wise at least that's reasuring.

I think you should be fine with that amount of pulls going into the patch, lol, unless you want all 3 characters plus their signature weapons (you can probably skip Iuno's weapon, nvm, you're not pulling for Iuno.). Ofc, there's also the possibility of getting some dogshit RNG like I had last week in ZZZ...

Just imported all the pulls because I wasn't sure about the final count. 158 pulls to get Alice and then 68 more to obtain her w-engine, for a total of 226 pulls!

Edit: And yeah, the Alice banner is officially the worst one I've rolled in ZZZ since the game launched.

Patch survey is out. I was mostly positive on this one. I felt like this idle/casual game event goes on way too long, but otherwise I really enjoyed the patch. I gave lots of specific feedback to let the puzzles be a little more challenging/difficult. They have some really difficult combat events in this game, but the puzzle stuff is always super braindead piss easy. I'm not asking for super challenging stuff, but they can improve it a bit. Also asked them to buff older/standard banner characters a bit. Yinlin/Calcharo especially since Electric is about to be relevant for the first time. Also Jianxin, but she's just a personal favorite of mine.

I'm up to 14k Asterites from cleaning up some open world stuff and achievements. Not enough for both characters + their sigs, but I've gone into patches in the past in much worse shape. It's probably about time that RNG shows me a little pity, maybe I'll get lucky and get something early this time.

I did the character trials for the rewards, and I think I actually might be coming around on Brant a bit. I still don't like characters that fly around and have really erratic attack animations, but his shield is super handy and my biggest problem in my Lupa/Changli team is that no healer really works with them outside of SK/Verina which is the same for any team. That one leak summary mentioned there's a 5* Fusion healer girl on the way though, so I'll probably just save for that. No way am I digging into my Augusta/Iuno funds right now anyways, but I do appreciate that Brant has excellent role compression.

*edit*

Looks like they're giving us new BP weapons too. Supposedly a big upgrade from old BP weapons and can rival/beat some of the standard 5* weapons at max refinement or whatever they call it in WuWa (infusing copies of the same weapon into themselves)

Peroroncino , they're slowly coming around and embracing the GOAT

As they should, to Captain Brant, no person is beyond saving; every lost step is only a prelude to finding the right path. Those who once strayed in ignorance or fear, will find no judgment, but open arms.

Also, he's literally the infinity stone in Lupa/Changli team comp.

Curious to see how good those new BP weapons are compared to the old ones, and also how they stack up against the standard 5* weapons.

Funny enough, I have like four unopened BP weapon boxes because they're just that useless, so anything that can be an improvement is welcome!

Edit: Yeah, Imma put this new BP weapon on Iuno if/when I'll pull her. And if I win the 50/50 I'll pull for Ciaccona weapon to make my Cartwheel team even more OP. At least, that's my current plan for this upcoming patch.

Theres a survey, time to praise Phrolova.

Curious to see how good those new BP weapons are compared to the old ones, and also how they stack up against the standard 5* weapons.

They seem a bit better than the old ones and standard, but thats only with all dupes. The standard 5* weapon bonuses dont really fit Iuno and Augusta, so theyre a good bit better here, but the standard still seem to pull ahead without duplicates. Neither seem that far behind the unoptimal limited 5* so thats good.

Spoiler: Cias weapon should do more if plan to run Iuno on Carte team

I cant customize the echoes here, they should be just decent (3x high-ish crit rate + dmg) but the better the crit rolls on echoes, the better theyll scale over standard 5* weapons due to their crit bonuses.

Better wait for proper, live numbers tho. I hope they let us use the old BP boxes, but i am not so sure about that.

T4keD0wN Thanks for looking into this! The preliminary calculations and info on Aether Strike look pretty solid. I might actually double down on the BP and grab the highest tier to get it to R2 right away, but like you said, I'll wait for the live numbers since there's still plenty of time until Iuno's banner. And yeah, I'm considering grabbing Ciaccona's weapon depending on how my Iuno pulls go.

And speaking of pulls, farming chests in Rinascita has been going pretty well. I've added another 1k astrite to the bank! I've pretty much depleted all the astrite from this region though, so I'll be moving to Septimont probably tomorrow to continue the astrite grind.

Here are some dope renders with various WuWa characters. I'm putting them under a spoiler just in case as a couple of them are borderline nsfw.
