My Biggest Mistake that RUINED my Honkai: Star Rail Account:

It's almost like having a good team built is how you make a team building strategy game easier.

His biggest mistake was not getting luocha or fuxuan and not making his Bailu as good as she could be

so your biggest regret is not doing what you recommended other players to do. i.e. you farmed relics early instead of raising other units first. WEIRD

He's finally found the sauce of sustain. Gepard, Fu Xuan, and Lynx are just insane sustainers even before they're maxed out with decent relics. Glad to see you finally getting what this game's all about!

gepard is such a savior. I cannot be more thankful that I have him. My team never dies and he doesn't even need to use skill points. I am in the same situation as mtashed where I hyper invested in seele, jing yuan and my dps characters, but I never really got anywhere until I built gepard and luocha.

In my personal opinion all of the Hoyoverse and other gacha games I've played over the years have taught me one thing. Once you have everything you may ever think you need, the rest of the game is about fun factor and how new characters work. Not every new character may out DPS a previous DMG dealer, but they are sure as hell fun to use. Honkai Impact teaches this VERY early on as you progress through the game and start getting more and more battlesuits than you can count.

I think you could always "get by" with minimal characters/investment but you need to have fun along the way

Facepalm..... I've been commenting on this guys videos for MONTHS that he shouldn't waste his resources hyper-investing into min/maxing artifacts for one or two characters. Levelling up characters is easy in this game, and having a good team is so much more valuable than having one or two OP DPS characters

Every gacha game I've played I always make some rookie mistake that makes the game a slog for months. Going back and starting with the knowledge you have makes everything super smooth. if your in the start of a game's life cycle like now and you can spare the time and won't burn out. Starting over and applying the knowledge you now have could be a good idea since it can give you a massive leg up. I made quite a few mistakes in star rail. Not nearly as bad as M Tashed but enough that I am like 15% below optimal of what I could be if I started over with what I know now. I'm not going to because its not worth it to me, but definitely would change quite a few things.

Investing in supports and sustains now will do wonders in the long run. DPS is easily replacable unless you're pulling for elemental coverage. If you have SW, you can basically pull whoever you want DPS-wise.

Imho, Clara is actually the best dps that ignores element. Shes my 2nd main dps. E0s5(herta shop). Cleared moc 10 and mox 6 . As hyper dps. Gepard,natasha,tinyung team with mediocre relics.

He finally figured out its all about the supports. Only took 6 months. =)

As masochistic as it is, this is why I max out traces and levels for all my characters before ever farming for relics. It takes a lot of time, but once finished, I can fit characters into any team. I know my chars are getting guaranteed upgrades and can function well even with half-assed relics. To balance this out, my incremental source for relics atm is from the Echo of War and Cavern of Corrosion daily quests.

I just like building new characters and trying things out, but then I'm at the point where I can clear MOC 10 so fighting forever for slight relic improvements like I used to in Genshin doesn't feel worth it. That's one thing I finally learned when I quit genshin, is that burning a month in one domain for another 10% CD is just not worth the pain

His biggest mistakes is waste all jade on Energy Refreshes

Thank you for explaining this. I was really struggling to understand why it was so difficult for me to clear content and realised I was using your same genshin-like mentality of focusing on one hypercarry. I’ll try to save my account as you suggested. Have a good one💪

its pretty interesting seeing how other people have progressed their account. i genuinely did not start farming relics until LT 66, the relics i got from weekly bosses and SU was good enough. i basically only leveled my first four characters, seele, natasha, fire mc and bronya. i had characters like gepard, welt, tingyun, and clara. i did not start investing into those other characters until late 67-68. i'm now almost TL 69 with 12 characters with good enough relics and traces. basically my advice is not to tunnel vision on relics, even later into the game. leveling up another character, getting decent relics, and decent traces is better than weeks of relic farming for your main. spreading yourself too thin on too many characters is not a big issue, spending months on 1 characters relics is. at least recycle the trash gear into usable pieces for other characters.

loving the hsr content! keep it up man!

I sacrificed all my relics lower than 5-star quality into the Stellaron Hunters(+Luocha) & it really helped me defeat the abund-eer more soundly also. So sticking with your preferred characters for stat building is net-worth it.

I honestly did the same thing, focused on 1 dps unit but it worked for me, as I got blessed by relics early on so Seele did good damage and I could quickly move on to other units. As for now, my supports are at a point where they don't need further investment, and I the only useful thing I get out of spending trailblaze power is potential dps relic upgrades.
