>>553142123Yeah I'll get her next week, she's the final cornerstone to make a Bita DPS team work. Part2na is somewhat inevitable and could fill the gap that Bita leaves in the Seele team if I have to run Vita DPS.Man, perhaps I need Bio Helia. I have no Bio DPS Part2er yet and I really enjoyed her story.

Honkai wouldn't work without yuri. Honkai is yuri. Without it, its story would make no sense or lose all of its agency and impact.
>>553152776And yuri doesn't work without the male player's dick
>>553153280I care about your whole body kira

>>553168675
>>553168675this is a deliberate design choice
>>553168675And to think i used to doompost about how much of a non-character she was, girl has developed and grown
Why did Helia do in one arc what Durandal, Elysia, and all her clones failed to do in many?
>>553174962Elysia and Durandal already underwent their character growth off-screen, the most you can do with Dudu, is have her be properly defeated by x, so she has a minor lapse of faith that is solved by the power of Rita's cunt or friendship
>>553175523>offscreenElysia doesn't get character growth. Duranda's VN had her spend most of it jobbing and she ended up absorbing a whole pocket universe into herself and other stuff.
He was so real for that
More like Duonigger haha
>>553162595who?we love Mei here.
Seele!
Sealy
Seale
>no less than 2 seeles in hsr already
This would've been what the game ended up with if Genshin didn't exist.
Too bad Genshin exists in this timeline and ruined everything. Now everyone left and the game's dead because surprise surprise, ironic weeaboo genshitters and star rail niggers don't like otaku things.
It's been a while.
>>553194487>pink Elysia need cock
>>553193784Oh no, you're telling me we would get a whole sexy family?

Isn't Mei supposed to be the one with the japanese-inspired designs?
>>553199771
>>553199771Here's Mei petting her cute horse. Get fucked dudu.
>>553176754>Elysia doesn't get character growthIt's not just that, Elysia and Durandal can't ever get any character growth unless they would be totally rewritten.Helia didn't just get a great arc, the seeds were already there from the very beginning, all she needed was a spotlight on her. My girl unironically just needed more time.
>>553199989>>553200105shes stolen pets from both sisters
Bella...
>>553196431Lamp still has value if she supports a World Star DPS. Get her something to do, run her with Seele.
>>553199869its fiction so japanese also celebrate lunar new year
They finally made a new b-chips skin and it looks lame as hell no wonder they stopped making them
They finally made a new Seele and she's Seele.t. me, when Part2eele drops
>>553206380Aiiieeee were are her wings and tail>>553206625Huh, dk?
>>553200538Smeele doesn't really use Lantern though. She wants Bita/Badum/pink slut (new). Not even Sena uses her anymore. She's probably the fastest p2 suit to reach 'obsolete' status.
>>553193784At some point you gotta stop blaming genshin for everything. The reason this game is in this state is because the honkai team is full of retards, the current player base doesn't help it either "actually part 2 is good now guys, trust us" part 2 having improved from its original state doesn't make it good now, just better than before. I rewatched Moon Halo after a good while yesterday and came out reminiscing about what this game used to be.

>>553219947Mei's Meis...
>>553207034Sure, those are better options, but that's the last thing she has to do, really. She's a copium option. Like running dog Cora instead of dragon Cora as a support.
>>553219947Looks good except her tiny tits, should be at least APHO sized
>>553220698you run both dogs on bita tho

Hear me out!Senadina is Part 2's pink thing, but since she was introduced at the very beginning alongside Entropy, she works.Her being somewhat at the sideline and dragging Entropy away from Helia and Coralie also helps those to fully explore their relationship.Helia's arc once again shows that Honkai doesn't work without yuri.Elysia's failure was that she didn't really have a meaningful place in the story and among the other characters.If you look closely, Helia's arc was prepared from the very beginning, her relationship with the doggo has always been at the centre of her character.That's why I'm hopeful that MHY has a plan what to do next. Elysia was their only real failure of a character, but this seems to get corrected in Part 2. Helia and Coralie follow the same logic like Part 1 couples if you look closely, they're just more subtle and I guess this is more about the CPC than the Honkai team forgetting how to write meaningful lesbians.
>>553220698The point is; no one will ever willingly use a 'cope' option unless you're doing it for entertainment value. A-Coralie isn't even a comparison when she's competitive (and sometimes best in slot) for Vita teams. Lantern is just completely homeless as of the moment.
>>553221735Senadina works because she has direct ties and a relationship with the main villain of the arc. And has some partial responsibility due to being a groomer.
>>553221735sena works because they show she fucks up and doesnt reply teehee wink to every problem
Man I've had awful luck with the Shu's today. Came 6th each time as I never broke to 5 shus.
>>553221817Bronya onee chan is right!>>553221735>>553221857>>553222113This!
>>553222256Um, no. You just suck. That can't happen even if you tried to purposely sabotage yourself.
>>553222920Nope, literally Shu's just haven't been appearing in my shop, my current run I've only gotten Lantern and Milktoast appear and it's now round 8.
>Immediately switch to DK>Start winning.Man, Shu's suck.
>>553223164Did you select the seven Shus as your reccomended lineup?
>>553223668Yes.
>>553223581Don't show this man what a Lantern with her knoife can do
>>553223784I had the knife last round, but it doesn't matter when you only get 2 Shu's until the last round, when I got Thelema and Sera for a grand total of 4.
>>553223910RNG just be like that sometimes
>>553223164Okay wow.
>>553224135For instance i just did a Shus run where my early RNG fucked me raw, it picked up towards the end with Vita and Lanterns knife, but the early game damage got me a balls to the wall second
>>553206625For a brief moment, I thought they were going to jam that thing into the enemy instead of firing a missile.
Honestly, 7 shoes are strong and all, but Idols is far stronger and so are Honk and DK from my experience.Idols also need a bit of time to get going, but this means you may run a copium build at first so you don't lose that many battles and if nothing good spawns, you may still pivot into something else. Yeah. My recommendation of a strong build would be Idols all the way.
Not mine, but reposting since we're talking about the Auto chess
>Rita's event is just a surprise ad for the new Mei.Lol. Used whore gets tossed aside.
>Mei's patch is just more blatant Kiamei propaganda in disguise to remind you elysia lostLol. AIDS ridden whore gets tossed aside.
i like part 2 a lot
a shame that hoyo does not
>>553232335Elymei could never work. It would have broken Mei, Kiana and by extend the story as a whole.Elymei shippers are coping, pissing and shitting themselves and don't get the story.
>>553226901idols just has 0 midgameyou lose every round even with Kira because she's a piece of shit (affectionate) if you're playing with real playersbut if you get Kiana and 5/5 it's just ggshoes is atleast reliable at 5/7, given you have your Lantern maxedand honestly, you don't even need the Lantern augment to play it that shit is more like an 'instawin if you see it', the comp works just fine without it and will net you a second place at the very worst
I honestly think DK is the strongest. Rita's Bindings basically allow you to remain consistently strong throughout the whole game as you are able to fill in the gaps until you get all the DK units, it usually means you maintain a step ahead of most other people, who are waiting on their 5th Shu or something allowing you to have a strong lead that buys you the time for the final DK, where as I've had games where I'm so low I don't have the health to survive for that final unit. It's affect is also really fucking strong.My go to plan is Rita DK > Dudu Shu if the right Rita doesn't proc.
>>553234298Elysia fans as a whole never gave two shits about the story lolThey are seasonal tourists
>>553236096and this is exactly why they even came up with shit like Elymei in the first place

I don't care how powercrept the Lamp is. I like her and I will continue to play her.My beloved only outdated Part2er.
>>553237157She can still get the divine key treatment which finally gives her ignite, that's honestly the biggest thing bricking her, give her ignite, a bit more damage, more Anal ring partner options, and she's usable again

>>553238687unironically looks worse than basewhat the fuck is thatpurple + bluefire breath looks nice atleast
>>553221735>remove elysia equivalent and focus on the characters from outside the simulation>they get good character arcsThe lesson is simple. Remove Elysia, focus on developing Mei, and ER would be better.
>>553240874Bingo
is it too much to say the creation of elysia changed mihoyo as a company
>>553243049Actually genshit changed everything for the worst. Elysia was just a byproduct tested out that ruined hi3 considerably.
>>553240874>>553242656It's not that simple, Senadina is a lot like Elysia in character and even in her role as the Goddess and such. Sena works. It's more like while the Flame Shitters were left largely unexplored and their agency, that they had, was secondary to them being Elysia sideshow characters, Senadina leaves those characters space to breathe. Leylah and Entropy interact with each other and the people around them and still don't infringe on the emotional exclusivity that Helia and Coralie have. They are actual characters.>focus on developing Mei, and ER would be betterYeah I agree with this part, though. Mei should have been the main focus. Perhaps Elysia could have worked better if she herself was more of a supporting character.
>>553245071Elysia to me just doesn't work at all because she was sh*oji's waifu wank and anything done in the story for her were simply asspulls to justify said wank. Come on man, she and firefly are based on his irl gf. He doesn't even hide it.
>>553221735the only real similarity between them is that they are both supposedly important to the story but nobody knows or want to explain whythe difference is; the pink slut's arc is already over (thankfully) and quite literally NOTHING got explained and they didn't even show Kevin actually killing her when that was the only interesting 'reveal' in the entire arcSena also obviously has done some horrible things if you go by the tone of the story so she isn't this 'pure and pristine saint jesus in pink who can do no wrong' characterand the fact that the most interesting arc of part 2 so far had nothing to do with her already presents her as a better crafted character just by not being a charisma blackhole unlike the pink cancer's 'ME! ME! ME!' syndrome
inshallah shaoji is getting another slap
Late into the franchise I will introduce a PINK to destroy the franchise. She will not get character development but she will magically save everyone. She will shove her tits in your face. She will be a walking violation of continuity and consistency. Behold!
Why is everyone everywhere talking about how beautiful Elysia skin is? Isn't this supposed to be Mei's patch

>>553247147Except nobody cared and we're all pulling for Mei and Luna dk only.
>>553246691Ameen brother. >>553246067True.

>>553247147>everywherelet me guess, twitter? i can guarantee you, none of those people actually play the game and only knows Elysia out of all the charactersElysiafags will literally do everything except actually play the gamepersonally it's pretty mid, only the finisher looks somewhat cool, definitely not a 9600 skinbut i also have chinawank fatigue so i might be slightly biased against it
>>553249158Yeah you're right the moon ultimate and the bridge thing is super beautiful. Not pulling though. I found Kiana's one worth the crystals. This one, not so much.
>>553236247Actually they don't like mei either. They just like using mei to prop up the unlikable mary sue. If Eden was more popular they did be using her but it's not the case. They're basically jealous of Kiana being the mc, having Mei, and good character development, none of which elysia has so they like stealing Kiana's stuff to boost elysia because that's the only way they can cope. Over the years I've always noted the biggest kiana haters are always elysia fags simply because kiana won and had the best story. And most of them are usually twitter fags. It is as if they think kiana is real or something and cucked their self insert lol
>>553251435Twitterfags are so odd, I don't get it.They try to prop up the one not-lesbian girl as a lesbian to make her fit in.At the same time, they reject yuri and don't fail to see how a male Dreamseeker or main story Adam would break character interactions.All of this in the name of "inclusivity". And I assume they don't even see that almost every cadet I find nowadays is a lesbian woman.Seriously, what do they even want? Nothing of what they push makes any sense.
Reminder to prefarm for Silverwing (Boobnya). She will be getting her own divine key in the patch after Mei's.

>>553211747Genshin is the reason why the game started going downhill and had became more soulless. Part 2 was curated for people who hate Japanese otaku culture like their Genshin playerbase. I'm going to blame Genshin and its very existence forever until it dies, which will never happen until Mihoyo goes public.
>>553140453
>>553140453Mei! Mei! Mei!
>>553298770This. Part 2 is proof Mihoyo caters to yurifags, footfags, and horndogs who think censorship is bad. And just look at the outfit they gave dragon Coralie, it's like they want lolifags too. We need to attack Da Wei again before he puts bunny suits in.
