2.6 Tier List and the Best Characters as of November 2024（Page 146）Comment

>>1728 maybe sparkle for your mono quantum qq to brute force any content. you got sw right? you probably dont need to worry about elemental coverage so much if you have sw. and then just pray hoyo dont suddenly drop more enemies with high quantum resist.. if you get sparkle you can use her with either your qq or dhil.

>>1726 I don’t have Jingliu nor Kafka unfortunately so I’m planning to build Misha if he’s in sparkle banner for ICE. My only dps rn are Dan heng (the dragon one) and Argenti and QQ to be my quantum one and work with Sparkle. So I should really go for blade? I’m kind of new to this game’s mechanics so is elemental coverage really that important over supports?

Ye even now Argenti boss in G&G straight up nukes your team lol. I did everything I could to avoid fighting him in Diff 5. I'd rather fight the deer and true sting lol. Can't imagine the new nightmarish hoyo is cooking for Penacony. From what I know we will fight boss ver of Aventurine and Sunday ☠️

>>1725 imho ruan mei is very unique harmony. she gives rare buff. while sparkle is very comparable to bronya. since you already got bronya you can use her with blade if you get him. seeing your dps coverage, you should be fine skipping ruan mei. get ruan mei if you have jingliu/kafka dot. get sparkle if your mono quantum uses qq.

I have a question, should I go for blade so I can have a strong wind dps (my only dps coverage rn is imaginary and physical + Quantum) or should I go for Ruan mei? I know normally going for a support over a dps is better but some people say that it’s better to get strong dps options for different elements sometimes instead. I have all current supports except for Ruan mei and I do plan on going for Sparkle for my Mono Quantum team. But if she’s very good and is better than I’ll get her instead.

>>1720 we getting crazy new endgame content whenever hoyo releases a new 'defensive' character. i am scared to imagine what kind of torturous endgame content we will be getting when aventurine banner is here.

>>1721 As someone who can only clear up to MoC 9, that's not my worry yet ahah, waiting for ratio to carry me to endgame hope he's good

>>1720 Yeah you're right, Bronya is better if you want to clear faster bur I personally prefer RM in MoC just because my sustains are not good enough to maintain my team alive so I focus on killing the enemies before they kill me ahah, so delaying their action with RM is easier. Anyway as said before they're both great, I personally prefer RM tho

Diff 5 conundrum level 12 is truly torturous trust me.

From my experience Bronya is nicer to use in MoC because you are fighting against limited cycle. Enemies also don't hit too hard. RM is way better at stupidly difficult content where amount of cycle does not matter like SU expansion (Swarm, G&G and whatever more is coming 💀). So it does not matter if RM cannot advance forward there. RM delaying enemies are super helpful to minimize dmg taken especially to brute force clear the higher conundrum level.

Anyway, I prefer Ruan Mei, Bronya also is great but they have different kits, so it's not easy to compare them

Also, RM has the only break efficiency buff in the game, that plus toughness bar regen delay is just too OP, it makes your entire team deal 100% dmg all the time, while with toughness bar on it was 10% more resistance on dmg iirc

RM is just too broken, it's like having 100% uptime Bronya buff on all the team, and RES PEN instead of crit and atk buff seems a good deal to me, since once you have a good enough crit on your dps RES PEN can be better than buffs

imho Ruan Mei ~= Bronya >> Tingyun

>>1713 with this logic, tingyun>>>>bronya too so no lol. advance forward plus cdmg are more universally powerful.

>>1713 1 skill point 70dmg for one turn <<<<<<1 skill points for three turns that relies on only ruan mei taking action like tingyun skill

Ok no way ruan mei isnt above bronya . Bronya only has her skill that is unique and every version it's getting turned into a waste of skill points and 70+PERMANENT dmg bronya only gets that crit dmg buff every three turns and it goes away every two turns so you miss a turn and ruan mei's skill and ULT relies on her taking action so your seele /sushang/Jing liu won't lose the buff from skill and ultimate when they act twice or thrice and bronya's skill +dmg is only for one turn unlike her

Anyway they have different playstyles, Bronya is hypercarry Queen while Ruan Mei is universally good with anyone and in any comp, rn she's my most important support because she can just double almost triple my Jingliu's dmg make my Blade hit 90k instead of 40k, AND most important thing of all, she and Xueyi are a match made in heaven, a lot of people say they dont synergy well together but trust me they completely destroy any enemy regardless of their weaknesses

I agree Bronya is the best support rn but Ruan Mei is not so far behind, in fact I almost like Ruan Mei more just because of her everlasting 70% dmg buff on the entire team that doesn't rely on crit, while with Bronya you boost crit dmg so you need a solid crit rate on your dps

the only harmony one who can powercreep bronya in hyper setup is someone who can 100% advance forward the dps but their buff lasts longer. bronya buff lasts only 1 turn which is bad for jingliu when she is about to enter her special state. only her normal skill gets buffed. robin is rumored to advance your whole team but still we dont know if it is 100%. maybe just 25% since its for whole team. even sparkle who can advance one ally only does 50%.
