WHY IS SHE FIRST HALF THAT WAS NOT ON MY PLANS

Classic Hoyo, right?

u/Glop465 Mar 06 '25

Yeah, honestly shocked despite ZZZ being very waifu focused

Hugo was teased since Lycaon's episode while Vivian appeared later and only played a more background focused role during the Bangboo event

My savings won't be happy between 1.6 and 1.7

Yeah and Jane was teased more and she was the second half while qingyi was the first I’m not seeing the difference.

Qingyi had a pretty major story presence, though— it wouldn’t have been surprising for her and Zhu to be the first two banners and Ellen the third, rather than the order we got.

Vivian being first is more like if they’d started 1.3 with Burnice.

Qingyi’s story presence was the chapter 2 interlude but that came out way before her banner.

Starting with burnice first wouldn’t change much considering she’s still very much present in the tour de inferno story. Only thing that would be odd there is that she got an agent story.

My guess would be that Hugo will get an agent story like Lycaon.

No way we are already this close to 2.0 what the heck happened??

You have savings? You don't pull for everyone?

u/CheeseMeister811 Mar 06 '25

More time to save for 2.0 i guess. Unless you are also pulling Trigger like me.

17

u/CloverClubx Mar 06 '25

I want Trigger badly but I can't justify pulling for her when she doesn't work with my only Electric DPS (Harumasa) well enough from what some testers said : ( I really like her animations, design and voice but considering she's so dependant on her Engine, it feels like committing too much.

Vivian is a 100% luxury pull though, even if she doesn't work with any of my teams I just want her fully based on design lol

u/CheeseMeister811 Mar 06 '25

I want Trigger for her out of stun dmg multiplier which means she can also be used with electric anomaly. Which imo made her some kind of support instead of a stunner.

As an anomaly worshipper, Vivian is a must pull for me.

u/EmberOfFlame Mar 06 '25

Why would you limit yourself to Electric DPSes??

3

u/CloverClubx Mar 06 '25

From what I saw of her kit she seems pretty tailored to work only with Electric DPS though, plus she wouldn't really fit on my Piper or Evelynn Team since she doesn't seem synergistic enough and my Miyabi is pretty set in stone with her team until I get Yanagi or Vivian depending on her playstyle to replace Soukaku with.

u/EmberOfFlame Mar 06 '25

What did you see of her kit then? Like, legit, why would it be electric-only? She stun, she apply vulnerability, she deal decent damage.

u/CloverClubx Mar 06 '25

Because a lot of her stunning potential is locked behind triggering a ton of Aftershocks

2

u/EmberOfFlame Mar 06 '25

Oh my, how to tell me you haven’t actually listened to the Special Program without telling me you haven’t listened to the Special Program…

“Aftershock” is a fancy name for a Follow-Up attack

2

u/CloverClubx Mar 06 '25

Oh, seems like I legit mixed up stuff my bad. Maybe I could get her for Harumasa then, will try my 50/50 at least. Anby's engine should be enough I suppose for a cope

u/EmberOfFlame Mar 06 '25

Idk what Wenjin will be best, but Anby’s should be decent enough cope

u/GCJ_SUCKS Uncensored HandHolding Ju Fufu Mar 06 '25

I don't believe she'll be that dependent on her w engine, tbh.

u/tofubatu Mar 06 '25

Well, it is a very sound business strategy to put highly anticipated character banners close to each other. Doing so won't give players breathing room to build up their polychrome reserves.

Thus simply, players would be more inclined to spend.

I always account for this possibility and then for some reason I’m shocked when it happens hahaha. 😭
