The best tip is actually to keep up to date on spoilers. We have a rough idea of the next several months of character releases in advance. Use that information to plan out your pulls. F2P pulls are severely limited. Expect to lose every 50/50 and plan accordingly.

Skip 1-2 banners each time and only pull a character that you will want to add to your two main teams and take to level 80. Dont pull without atleast 16,000 jades saved.(which is surprisingly easy for HSR) And once you have your new 5 star stop pulling immediately.

@twothreeoneoneseventwoonefour5 4 ай бұрын

@@Ophanim1000 "don't pull without x amount of gems saved" is such a terrible advice lol. If you want the character and if the character is strong then just pull with whatever you have. Literally why not? Imagine you are a beginner who had 40 pulls and almost no characters. Sparkle or Ruan Mei, or some good dps like DHIL or Jing Liu comes, which are all S+ units, and you are like "nah I don't have 100 pulls so I won't pull", makes completely no sense whatsoever. Completely useless, I would even say moronic advice. What's the worst that could happen? You could spend 40 pulls and get the character if you get lucky, or you don't, where in that case those 40 pulls will count in the next banner, and you will only need ~35 pulls to get the next 5*. You didn't know that the pity counter carries over from banner to banner? In that case you are not fit to give advice to people, my dude.

@LetterSequence. 4 ай бұрын

Once you get comfortable skipping characters, the game becomes a lot less stressful. You have to convince your brain that nothing bad will happen if you skip the shiny new meta character. I've lost almost every 50/50, and I still got all the characters I wanted from their banners because I always go into each banner with like 150-ish rolls. In fact, next patch I'm probably skipping Acheron despite how cool she is, so I can have enough rolls to guarantee SAM whenever he shows up. As long as you plan accordingly, and realize that eventually they will rerun these characters in the future, you should be able to guarantee at least one 5 star per patch.

@marinal8214 4 ай бұрын

Agree with u! I got super excited over Acheron, but I had a dream, that she has some limitations in team building and ultimate usage without E2 and the fact that she looks like Seele made me realise, that I dont want her that much, tho Im sure hype will be huge over YT >_

What has helped me save Jades as a f2p was building 4* characters that cover holes in your current roster. I'm currently trying to makes teams for every path bonus offered in the SU game modes and it's really helped explore those team types. When Jingliu was skipped I built Herta, Kafka was Serval, Dan IL for Ratio, in these cases I was still able to 36* MoC and PF while saving up for my favorites.

@ruen_me1361 4 ай бұрын

yeah i use a four star to cover type/niche coverage whenever possible and only pull the holes or if i really like an overlapping five star and if the four star is doing fine i wait to replace them 4 stars in HSR are super underrated it doesn’t take as much from them as ppl assume for standard 5 stars and 4 stars to clear ESP bc they are really cheap to build compared to five stars so even if u replace them they didnt cost that much to build, i also refuse to pull overlapping limited like i have 2 limited sustain characters so im not pulling any more for a long type no matter how much i simp, speaking of simp pulling i actually don’t bc everyone is super likable and if i pulled based on that in this type of game that’s just pulling everyone and honestly some 4 stars are my fave simp wise so i want to use them as long as possible i am also able to clear even with underinvestment in my relics so i think this is fine even if it involves using “weaker characters”

@Freenos 4 ай бұрын

Taking advantage of the MoC and PF Turbulence is the biggest benefit to building 4* characters that share traits with the current limit banner 5*s. Like, I built Sampo and he helped a lot this MoC on the Memory Meme as well as applying debuffs for Dr Ratio. Knowing Black Swan was on rate up was all I needed to prep Sampo ahead of time.

@rexevan6714 4 ай бұрын

100% agree with EoD here. as a low spender (I buy Welkin or BP every other month) I would never pull just for MOC/PF. I'd rather use every single character I have and see how far can I go. I would pull for a character if they bring new gameplay or synergise witih my "waifu".

"Play who you like, if you will use them" is top tier advice. If you roll someone and don't like them or just don't use them, then all those jades are effectively wasted. If you just want to look at the character looking pretty, you can do that online for free. That said, having some knowledge about who may be good for what can be beneficial. Some characters are absolute game-changers, and more consideration should be put to those. Ruan Mei and Sparkle come to mind. Though if your current team is still working fine and you do not like the character, don't pull for them either way.

@varryi2041 4 ай бұрын

The "liking the characters you pull" part is so true. I really like Blade, got him on release, but i don't like Luocha as a character at all. So i clear moc 12 with Lynx lol. If anything my journey in genshin has taught me, that not liking meta characters is fine and you can live in peace without pulling them.

@sweet_rain8352 4 ай бұрын

100% agreed, for a (very) low spender like me, it's difficult to keep up with new characters and it would be tempting to pull for all of them - especially when every new characters are "broken" and how the MOC/PF buffs always favors the said characters. So I decided to focus on my favorites instead of trying to keep up with everything. I pulled for Sparkle because she works amazingly with Dan Heng IL and I believe that she's the type of character that I'll use often+works well with a lot of units. I think the most game-changing tip for me is to stop pulling for signature light cones, since thanks to that I'm able to save more for upcoming characters that I want/need for my account. I managed to get Kafka, Black Swan, and Sparkle because of this ❤ Love their playstyle so much!

@NineLivesNate 4 ай бұрын

As a very low spender in Genshin and now HSR for a long time now (Welkin/Express only) I was curious if EODGamer would say the main things I do in both games, and he nailed it. Pull for who you like most importantly. Don't stress over full clearing MoC/PF, and characters > signature light cones (though if you have a favorite, by all means invest in the cone). I agree on all points, great video.

@o00o45 4 ай бұрын

I’m at the point where I’m starting to think f2p players can only gamble 50/50 at least once in one banner cycle. HSR seems to be giving out a lot of free warps through the events and it’s enough to at least tempt 50/50 and leaves the players the remainder of the banner’s cycle to play daily to try and secure the guarantee within the next 90 pulls with the accrued jades/warps. I also notice there’s a sense of urgency to create teams that can competently clear MoC and PF since these modes grant the most jades for warp which in turn increases your roster potential which in turn increases your f2p jade income. I hope they continue to do more events to give out more characters in the future. It’d help new players get into the fun of team comps easier and have veterans interested in trying new things.

@marinal8214 4 ай бұрын

If u check every patch calcs, then yes even super f2p with some half cleared moc/pf I think still have around 80 pulls to try and get limited character, but as time goes by I see, that most of the standart 5* I got through loses are actually useful, - Himeko and Clara r beasts in Pure Fiction, Gepard is my Fu Xuan that I once lost, I have E4 Bronya so far, but I also got some early comings among limited characters like Kafka in 37 pulls, Jingliu in 3 and last was Black Swan in 16, but I lost almost every 2nd of my 50/50, though I still managed to clear my moc and pf. Also thanks devs for giving us 5* lightcones and decent 4* ones

@PtaQman 4 ай бұрын

As a new player, I pulled for Jing Yuan and his LC (which was a must for me, because f2p erudition options were so underwhelming for him)... So yeah, I made a decision that will force me to skip some banners, but I don't care. JY is my main now and I love everything about that character. I think that there are exceptions like if you really love the character and want him/her to pop off then LC is a good investment. Otherwise I agree with you completely - it's better to get the character and then get the light cone on the rerun or skip it entirely when there's a good f2p option. Next stop Topaz I guess? Thanks for the vid. Good stuff as always!

While this game does have powercreep, I do like that it's not as bad as HI3. Its completely fine to still pull for old characters if you like them more despite of new characters coming out. With enough investments, old characters are still viable and great enough to clear. Also be mindful that pulling new characters means you need to invest time building them. The more you get characters, the longer it takes to finish building them to be good for clearing contents.

As someone who just started HSR recently, these videos are amazing! I appreciated the limited LC review you recently did. If you're still looking for new topics: could you do an updated review on how to prioritize 4* choices? All the options from Herta's shop, battle pass, forgotten hall, and now the new penacony 4* LCs are a little overwhelming. Most guides are either 8 months old and don't consider how the game has changed since release, or assume people have the old LCs already S5'd (when talking about the new ones)... help a new PS5 player figure out how to prioritize spending these currencies? 🙏

Fully agree on new characters > light cones/eidolons, new characters not only bring new playstyles but it gives you more variety for team comps. Light cones/eidolons will boost one character, but it’s more important for f2p to have multiple good characters than to have one super good character

Best tip is watch videos on character builds. That way players can have better ideas on who to build and how to maximize time and resources. Don't go around upgrading every character you get. As for relics, decent purple stats can go a long way. I made an alt account and cruised through the story and some contents without any problems. Still have tons of resources waiting for new characters. Including stellar jades which is at 27k rn. And i haven't a single jade to pull exclusive banners. Another, don't get sucked in completely by the infos from content creators. Every new character to them is meta changing, busted and what not. Check the playstyle see if it fits your style of game, and most importantly if it fits your team comps. Lastly, enjoy the game.

Two things that "boosted" my account a lot: One thing was swapping gears between my DPS's. I used to spend lots of resources to build each damage dealer and everyone knows how painfull that is, when i started to swap relics just to the characters that i need to clear moc in each stage i realized that i just need two set of really good stats relics(ignoring the set bonus).

I started playing the game last year in December. Ever since I got many characters and I invested a lot on them but what I noticed that as a light spender, and even for f2p and I think especially for f2p, the challenge is not getting the character but building them. I have Xueyi E6, I love the character but I cannot get any relics for her. And all my characters are at best decently built but nothing too much and that hurts the game a lot, it's such a slow process. So you may like a character, get that character but never get to use it because it's very hard to build them. DoT units are the best because they just need ATK.

Universal “OP” support with eidolon : ex : e1 ruan/sparkle 3.

To be honest in 2024, I feel like new players r a bit limited in characters/teams, coz every1 r getting Dr.Ratio and most likely going to build at least 1 MoC team around him, and then 2nd team with something they like, so the best tip is to use ur free doctor to the max and then pull for another good dps (pref that can hit the full board), that can be used in MoC and PF. MoC is not an issue here at all, dam PF is making me a bit sweaty, Im even wanting some Erudition character asap, - need to build Herta, Serval maybe even Sampo, Asta... I think alot of players still think in only usefulness of characters in MoC, but its no longer this way, Im sure as time goes by its going to be more stages in PF with more HP and need very specific harmony characters there, maybe more damage sustains etc...

#1 tip has to be stated more explicitly: *you cannot pull on every banner and have to skip some banners, even if you don’t want to*. I know you *kinda* said this by skirting around it and saying jades are a resource you need to manage, but just say it explicitly: there will be characters you totally love, 100% want to pull and you’ll just have to skip their banner if you want to be guaranteed to get the *next* 5* character that you love and “must have”. I agree that banking up 160 to 180 pulls is the best thing you can do as a f2p, and then if you get the hero you want (especially if you win the 50/50), *stop pulling and bank back up to 160-180 pulls*. #2 tip: do not ever, ever, ever pull for 4* character eidolons as a f2p. Even if you love, love, love the character and think they’re the best thing in the universe, you are never guaranteed to get a specific 4* hero on a banner, and chasing their eidolons can cost you a ton of jades that you’re not guaranteed any kind of payoff for. You will get every other featured 4*, light cones that are useless to you, and even non-featured 4* when pulling on a banner, using up your jades with nothing to show for it. Final thought: by skipping characters that you don’t like/don’t want, it doesn’t mean that you can pull in every single banner of characters that you *do* like (unless you just hate everyone 😄). There are going to be a lot more characters that are hyped and appealing than what you can pull for.

Lightcones aren't that bad. They are a QoL that kinda eases up your runs and sometimes makes their attacks "lore-accurate". Maybe not for F2P players, but i don't think i regretted a single lightcone i've pulled so far. Having plans and seeing if they are worth or not is good. Although, I was anxious on how I planned my account for quite some time, especially when finding out Sparkle and Acheron are back to back.

Meanwhile, I just bruteforce everything with JY and full star everything since forever as F2P. There are many players who can't full star MOC because they pull too many DPS characters bru, all their characters have halfass build because of that. And I have different opinions about sig LC, I actually think that sig LC is worth it for DPS characters.

@Eclin 4 ай бұрын

As a F2P, my honest tip is to not waste a single relic that has speed main stats and speed sub stats. I have a lot of friends that have really good characters but are doing really poor in MoC and PF because their characters are just too slow, both the DPS and Supports. This is more of a general tip, but whales can easily fix that problem with eidolons and Lightcones. Another one is to pull and actually build your supports and sustains. Pulling for Sparkles and Ruanmei are both vertical and horizontal investment, you diversify your characters, but also makes your older characters way stronger than before. Then some people complain they cannot survive with non limited sustain, but built them properly even March can carry you in floor 12. Building different characters also gives you advantage in Pure fiction since the buffs in that mode are too specific, i built all DPS archetypes in the game so i breeze through it. Lastly, Relics aren’t guaranteed, better get traces and exp first because they are. Relics can be universally shared with characters, sets are good, but sub stats are way more important. When you get the characters at high trace, then you can start grinding for their designated relics(or just grind the quantum set lol).

@Markkunwastaken 4 ай бұрын

You seem like a knowledgeable person to ask. Are set bonuses that important or is it possible to get away with "rainbow" sets (random artifacts from diff sets, but with good individual stats that meet thresholds)?

@Somata_ 4 ай бұрын

@@MarkkunwastakenIt depends on the character really. For supports I'd say it's usually fine, but for damage you should really try to aim for set bonuses. Like as long as Tingyun has speed, it really doesn't matter, but not having stuff that could boost follow up damage for Dr Ratio or Jing Yuan could really gimp you for example.

it does, as of right now she is kinda niche but if you are planning to pull for acheron. Sw is a godsend, just slap acheron,pela, sw and any sustain then you're good to go. Most people skipping acheron because they don't have SW

@hellohororo1075 4 ай бұрын

@@arumi9410 If you mean monoquantum niche then that is not what I entirely meant. It's just that with very few damage dealers (resources are never enough, and I also have to build supports), I can force my DPSs in MoC and SU. This has been the case since I started playing. My roster is growing, but she still plays a big role in clearing hard contents.

When you get a 5* character the pity reset. So now you at 0 pity. You can get Acheron in 10 pull or 90 its depends on your luck but its 100% guaranteed.

For acheron: they will most likely add a 4* lc options for her in the future so id say her lc is not really a 100% must have so if you have enough jades for acheron and a lc or character go for the character

You also need to know that some players would like to completely clear all the endgame content because they are the only hard contents available. Also some want to do collecting a part, if not all of the character roster. what you are saying imo is very bland because what's the point of playing hsr if there is no end game content to clear/you dont fuss clearing those types of content. Everyday would be a chore doing dailies if those content weren't being accesed and played on.

Imo Fire TB should be good enough, and if any shield breaks thru, Natasha can heal. Dan Heng I used till end of Belobog, tho I replaced him with Ratio eventually. It helped that my units can supply debuffs for Ratio (Serval march etc). I didnt farm relics either. But also, I was very ok with running from enemies and just blazed to the story point, then clearing the area for chests etc when my team is better
