Simulated Universe Team Comps

SimU 4 (Stompy Robbit)

Nihility remains the winner, Kafka & BS supported by Luocha and/or Aven (depending on if we get heal-on-DOTs or other HP regen blessings), slot 4 can be basically anyone we like, Topaz being a solid choice (exploit fire weakness). Swap in Guin as needed for certain fights.

SimU 7 (That Effing Deer)

Elation run, Himeko and Topaz, side order of Jingliu (ice damage queen, most things are ice-weak including That Effing Deer), and either Luocha (healzorz) or Aven (if, and only if, the "heal on follow-ups" and "Ults are follow-ups" blessings are on hand).

SimU 8 (Boy Wonder)

Nihility all the way, Kafka & Black Swan, Luocha if heals are needed but Aven if we can get away with it. 4th slot... wildcard? General Zot Zot, Bronya, even Sampo to double up on Wind DOTs are all options. Leaning toward Bronya for the "do that again" angle.

Character Build Stuff

Argenti

• Current Needs: Traces. Everyone needs more Traces.

Aventurine

• Just making a note that when he comes back around, try to E1 him. Ult Generates Shield is... very, very useful.
• We're also trying to get better Broken Keel parts. Imag DMG on one, DEF% on the other, with Crit DMG or Effect Res or SPD (or some combination thereof) as substats.

Black Swan

ALL DONE

Blad(i)e

• Current Needs: Traces. His Relics are set, he's got the stats he needs. His 4-star cone (Nowhere to Run) could use superimposition but that'll happen when/if it happens.

Bronya

• She's a support toon. She needs speed and survivability more than anything. Finish leveling up relics & cone, and load up Traces.

Dr. Ratio

• Current Needs: Changing out Planetary set for Duran (buffs FUA). ATK% primary on both, or Imag primary on the Planar Sphere, depending on the substats (preferably critty). And traces, because yeah, traces.
• Honestly? Could also use a better Pioneer Diver body piece. Current one has Crit Rate but none of the other desired substats (SPD, Crit DMG, ATK%). Footwear currently only has Crit Rate substat, so that could be better. Still want SPD primary tho'. (Head and Hands are both really good, it would take a miracle set of substats to change those out.)

Firefly

• Traces!

Hanabi ("Sparkle"? No.)

• Messenger main relics, Broken Keel planetary. Need to hit 30% Effect Res, rack up at least some SPD, and the biggest thing we need is Crit DMG. Everything scales off that. Don't care about ATK or Crit Rate. Past that, some survivability isn't a bad idea.
  • The footwear is okay, the hand set is okay, the headgear now has two good substats, but we can always do better. Need Crit DMG primary on the body piece, a lot.
  • The planar sphere needs survivability (HP% and/or DEF%). The rope should have Energy Regen primary. Right now we have neither of those.

Hanya

• Buffbot for the DOTs team, maybe. Job is to make more SPs by applying an effect to an enemy then having allies attack said enemy. Has her Planetary set (Fleet of the Ageless) but needs Messenger Traversing Hackerspace Relics all over the place. SPD mainly, with HP% and DEF% right behind. The goal is speed and survivability.

Himeko

• Ashblazing Grand Duke set replacement, because MOC runs are all about AOEs and FUAs which is pretty much all Himeko's good for. Uh, also Traces.

Kafka

• Band of Sizzling Thunder is out, Prisoner in Deep Confinement is in. Would like to keep the 140-ish SPD if possible. (We hit 150 actually.) A fast Kafka is a DOTs-proccing Kafka after all. Might look into a change from Space Sealing Station to Glamoth if we can keep that high SPD value. We want SPD, ATK%, and EHR (aiming for about 30%). Currently we have more critty than we need on substats, if we see a chance to drop those and get some ATK% without losing any SPD, great. EHR is through the roof right now, so we can drop some of that. Maybe.

Luocha

• Relic Set: Passerby of Wandering Cloud but should probably do a 2-and-2 hybrid with Messenger Traversing Hackerspace because the 1 skill point at start of battle 4pc buff of Passerby doesn't make up for the lost ATK%. We need Effect RES and to not drop below 120 SPD, and since he scales off ATK that's the "main stat" once we have enough of the others. Also, Broken Keel gives Effect RES which when stacked with his LC (Perfect Timing) can send his outgoing healing through the roof. So let's switch to that, too.
  • Grind: Passerby for Body (Outgoing Healing primary, SPD and ATK% substats if possible, in that order of preference).

Robin

• Traces. We got the relics and even her signature five-star cone. She's fully kitted now.

Ruan Mei

• Need to level up the Light Cone (signature, huzzah) and finish off traces, naturally.

Seele

• Traces. Boy is she short on traces.

Silver Wolf

• All set except for Traces, because everybody needs gorram traces.

Sampo

• Nearly finished. Just needs one more Trace max'd out. Rock solid performer for a four-star "low tier rating" unit.

Tingyun

• She's still Argenti's favorite buffbot. Needs a gear refresh.

Trailblazer: Harmony ("Harmblazer")

• Stats: SPD, Break Effect (kind of an unusual one, but this is an unusual kit), HP%/DEF%.
• Main Relics: Watchmaker. Body (DEF% primary) and footwear (SPD primary, good Break Effect secondary) are already locked down. Head and hands are okay-ish (both have SPD substats, which is never unwelcome).
• Planetary: Talia, HP% or DEF% on the sphere with a SPD substat, ideally. (The Break Effect rope with some DEF% is in place.)
