Ok currently can't find anything for Ellen buffs still. If they're added in the update on the 26th I'll document.

3 bingos 🔥 (thx Blaine)

ZZZ 2.0 Pre Register
Free polys and raffle here for 2.0. 300k Preregisters = free materials.

Welp IGN ended up showing off the new weekly boss... Not sure if people want me to run against it instead of Marionette or just stick to the original plan since people may want to watch gameplay without seeing the new boss themselves...

For people who saw the latest Reddit post about Phys RES on enemies being changed, I'm currently under the impression this is a bug. As far as I can see, many other enemies other than ones mentioned in that post had their Phys RES randomly changed too.
However, I can not see any evidence of this being the case in game so I believe it to be a bug. I'll keep looking but currently all enemy RES values seem to be the same.

Maybe I should stop reading Reddit in general this morning's certainly given us one of the posts of all time 😭😭😭

I'll get to calcs myself before the version goes live but holy I don't agree with a lot of those calc assumptions personally.

Ju Fufu CRIT DMG Buff Clarification
For people interested, Ju Fufu's CRIT DMG buff does not provide a fixed 5% CRIT DMG at 100 ATK intervals, but actually scales up dynamically. As a result, you do not lose out on a whole 5% CDMG by being at 3399 ATK rather than 3400.

For people wanting the exact formula:

10% + min[max((InitialATK - 2800)/100, 0)*5%, 30%]

For reference sorry, the 10% Base is at Core A.
10%/11.7%/13.3%/15%/16.7%/18.3%/20% depending on Core Skill Level so it is still 50% CRIT DMG at Core F.

Anyone curious to see things on Stella Sora? Not sure how much I'll do for it in beta but will test it out regardless considering I got invited.

Yixuan Talisman Ultimate Update
As of version 2.0.5, Yixuan can not swap cancel her Talisman Ultimate anymore...
This behaviour is also present in the latest version on CC server.

You don't know how bad of a "ITS SO OVER" "WE'RE SO BACK" moment I'm having right now there's a lot I want to document but need more time 😭😭😭I'll try write something up whilst on the train.

Just to stop some dooming, after further testing, this currently is not an issue. Her performance is in fact better than last week by using Talisman Ultimates just before the Stun window. if you're good with resource management you can use a Talisman Ultimate before Stun and get it back again mid Stun window too. In that scenario you end up replacing one of your EX Special Energy Balls with the Talisman Ultimate.

I do want to work on another mini guide video for her but that will have to come starting this weekend I apologise...

Yixuan Adrenaline to Talisman Clarification
Currently, Yixuan does not actually gain 0.67 Talismans per 1 Adrenaline spent.

Instead, she gains 0.667 Talismans per 1 Adrenaline spent.

Annoyingly, this means its possible to end up at 119.9/120 Talismans if you dont properly hold your Charged Ball EX Special fully and cancel it sliiightly too early.

Personally hope a Quality of Life fix come where they address this by increasing it just slightly but its lasted the entire beta so far so we will see...

I know it seems small but its clarifications like this I like to document. And annoyingly, this one does have a practical implication to it.

Yixuan Adrenaline Clarifications
Something I should've noted down long ago. Yixuan does generate Adrenaline when she hits enemies with her Basic Attacks, Dash Attacks etc, it just uses a new entry called Adrenaline Gain rather than Energy Gain.

Apologies for not mentioning this sooner, this is my skill issue but doesn't affect any gameplay or testing I've done so far, just for clarifications.

This has now been updated on hakush.in under Column C for people curious.
Column C usually refers to Energy Gain, but is replaced with Adrenaline Gain for Rupture Agents.

Just to inform sorry, I will finally be a lot more free come this Sunday. I will most likely be able to post Yixuan and Ellen gameplay starting next week.
CC videos should be out this Saturday though. I apologise for not being able to publish things sooner, next patch I should have a lot more time to work on things.
I will look over some CC guides and post one here I recommend for people wanting something instantly. For people waiting on my stuff, that will come after if that's ok 🙏

Currently what's planned:
- Yixuan short updated guide video, similar to the original video I posted.
- Yixuan Deadly Assault clears
- Ellen Deadly Assault clears
- Mayyybe some extra clears of Ju Fufu in other teams if I get the time for it. Not necessarily to show scores but moreso rotations.
