Should You Get Huckleberry, Borealis, or Crimson?
We Recommend Choosing The Huckleberry
The Huckleberry's ability of having an Increased Rate of Fire, amazing damage, and ammo passives makes it the best pick for players looking for significant boost in your damage.
Its can be equipped by both Jolder and Ning Fei who are some of the best characters you can get in the Standard Banner.
The Huckleberry Stats and How to Get
Borealis is Great for Breaking Shields
The Borealis is good for breaking enemy shields thanks to its passive of changing its damage type between Solar, Arc, and Void. This makes it pair well for the unit who can only hold this weapon, Tan-2.
This weapon can give his kit more flexibilty on team slot by being able to break shields, support his allies, and deal a ton of damage with precision shots.
Crimson is Comparatively Bad Compared to the Others
While the Crimson is good thanks to its ability sustain your Health and potential to never reload thanks to its passive, the only character who can currently equip this is Attal.
While not bad by any means, it is much better for you to invest on a 5★ unit first, especially since this weapons relies so heavily on its Catalysts and falls off when fighting bosses.
