Yep this exactly. I don't normally even pull light cones. but since I only have an S3 of the Gacha 4* I need to pull on Ruan Mei's lightcone banner just so her and Harmony MC don't fight. All the destruction characters also want the Herta shop lightcone. The difference is you usually only run 1 destruction character at a time. Whereas Mei and HTB not only run at the same time but on the same team.
@@Noaxid so why does that work well though? Am I missing something? She doesn't need energy Regen because of E6. Unless your specifically running firefly you probably don't need the skill points, and being that firefly's been out for like only a day I'd assume you're not talking about that. And my understanding is superbreak is not boosted by damage multiplyers. So the damage gained will be inconsequential.
Cake! Definitely listened to the whole thing. Funny thing is that my Ruan Mei is already built and I have been using her non-stop since she first came out, so there was no real reason for me to click this video when YT recommended it to me. But for some reason I did anyway and I'm glad I did because your explanations were amazing! Also, I commend you for listing out options for light cones, teams and relic sets instead of just listing out the theoretical BiS and second BiS. This is by far your biggest differential compared to most other cc that I know of and made me immediately sub. Amazing guide overall. I already have Ruan Mei and I maaay consider pulling for her E1 in the future, but currently I'm probably gonna go for her signature - that signature is by far the best light cone in the whole game imo: extremely versatile, does a lot and allows me to give Memories of the Past to harmony trailblazer instead. Incredible value, and I don't want to pass on it again. Thanks for such a fantastic guide!
I can't say that I was eating cake when I pulled but I did get insanely lucky. I just pulled for both firefly and her lightcone, and had about 20 pulls left. I said screw it, might as well build pity trying to get mei and got her on my first 10 pull. I don't expect anything like that to happen for me for the rest of my time playing this game, but that put a HUGE smile on my face dude.
🎂🎂🍰🍰I love when little things remind us of specific times in our pasts. Neat little story haha. And thank you for this guide, I started this game right after Ruan Mei's first banner ended, and after looking at all the characters, I thought to myself "Oh. She's pretty. 100% getting that character when she runs." Now we're here. Happy that she's not just pretty, but game changing. I've been waiting for this moment so long, thank the heavens we're finally here.
I love the introduction of HTB for her, not only for the obvious super break synergy, but it makes Ruan Mei piss easy to build even when coping with meshing cogs, you will reach 180% break effect no problem when paired with HTB
To top it off, in teams that use Ruan Mei that isnt Super Break. If you have her light cone too you could also forego using dmg% planar spheres for atk% instead since Ruan Mei gives over 90% dmg bonus already with her light cone, skill and Major Trace passive.
I had pulled Fu Xuan so didn't think I'd get her but well my HSR luck is really better than my genshin luck. Won my 50/50 but also very early only after 20 pity.
I did it guys.... I Lost both 50/50 and was able to pull Ruan Mei and Firefly just two days before her event ends....this was pain but I finally can build two good teams for events 😭 What a run
Cake...also kinda eerie how similar your loss of that 50/50 to mine...I lost to Himeko after 77 pulls and lo and behold I got her after another 77 pulls. Hopefully I don't need to go through all that grind again. lol. Anyways thank you for all that valuable info :D
The problem with Ruan Mei is she can only be on one team at a time. I’m thinking of pulling Firefly but my main team is Kafka/BS. I’m not sure either team is worth playing without her, so it’s a conundrum. Firefly probably needs her more, I don’t know, maybe I’ll run three DOTs? I don’t have Robin so the next best support for Kafka would have to be Asta, maybe?
@@games-dan Get robin she's better than ruan mei for a lot of team like dots or IPC . Ruan mei is better with some other teams like break . It's like bronya S1E1 and sparkle u need both
sent this to my girlfriend a week ago but didn’t have her yet so was too salty to watch it and check if it was even a good guide well I’m allowed to watch it now and can confirm it is
@@Juice-chan I'm actually one of those wo-mans like "woah man that's a lesbian" my cake story is her mom made a terribly underbaked shortcake last week but I ate half of it anyways so she wouldn't feel bad and think no one was eating it and now I guess bad shortcake will also make me think of ruan mei
i just got her today!! (literally minutes before i clicked on this vid). i also got robin on her release and i was at like 48 pity and wasn't even guaranteed!! my luck in hoyoverse games rn is crazy!! at 18 pity i got clorinde and weapon. after having gotten arlecchino. now i’ve got ruan mei after just having gotten robin. no weapon cuz i only have 5 pulls compared to nearly 70 total pulls in genshin. (i am f2p btw.... very f2p)
I have never won a 50/50 in my time playing this game. And then today it happened. I Won my first 50/50 to get ruin me. AND I GOT FIREFLY BEFORE HER. IM FUCKING SET
Ruan Mei is better in Honkai Star Rail than Furina is in Genshin Impact. That's how overcooked she is. But the best part about Ruan Mei is that she's a mommy who doesn't give a damn about MC's consent. :3 E1S1 Ruan Mei is a great break point, right there with E2S1 Acheron and daddy going out for milk. Also, I’ve never heard of Charlotte cake in my life. The best cake is pie. Mmm, pie.
It increases the overall dmg she can bring on her skill usage/one ult but not significantly, and truthfully i wouldn't suggest u to do that considering u could focus more on energy recharge after ur mei's break eff reaches 180% ish so u could get her ult a lot faster (her ult is a huge buff for her team so it's literally her biggest value)
@@nyx9924one thing that's looked over is Ruan meis rebreak delay is based on her break effect+hmc delay+slows. That being said hitting 180% on her is easy with Old Photo lc and hmc effects. Both of mine are just under 200% but easily to 300% with that lc+watchmaker+Both of their break buffs. FF is 238% and easily hits 360% benchmark.
in Firefly’s best team harmony MC is supposed to be in that team with Watchmakers so why would you run that on Ruan mei as well? the 4pc doesn’t stack. also, why run her on broken keel as well if break effect doesn’t need Crit stats. i’m so lost. i thought i knew what was best for firefly but now this is just so confusing
I'm literally in a situation where I have 2 stellar 4 piece Watchmaker sets for both Ruan Mei and HTB. Both sets are tailored towards speed and BE. If the Watchmaker 4 piece set buff cannot stack, which character benefits most from BE specifically in a BIS FireFly team of RM, Gallagher, and HTB?
Nah use both. More often then you'll stagger their buffs do to moc charging and such. Between them and Gallagher, you'll always have watch maker buff refreshed throughout enhanced state.
i have JL RM Bronya pela/sustain. both my Hackerspace 4set and Watchmaker almost the same stats. which relic should i choose? also planing to pull houhou probably will get her e6. should i e6 RM or Houhou?
02:12 I’m a newbie so I don’t know a lot of things I don’t get it why Ruan Mei needs hp does hp has something to do with break effect? Or does def has something to do with break effect? Pls answer
DEF and HP have nothing to do with break effect. They improve her survivability, though. As her main role is to buff the DPS, keeping her alive would allow to maintain her buffs all over the fight.
It depends on how much Break Effect you have. If you can reach 180% break effect, or close to it, in battle, go for ERR, otherwise, if you are far from it, Break Effect rope would be better, imo.
I pretty much do exactly the same things with my Ruan Mei. The one stipulation i have is that her lightcone is absolutely better than her E1. I get the point your making and i dont disagree with your point. However, the 4* cone is gacha. Its probable that many dont have access to this cone and even if they did HTB wants it too. The majority of players who are not day 1, are going to benfit far more from her lightcone.
I barely got enough for a 10 pull after winning Firefly and guess who I got, that's right Yanq- NO!!! I ACTUALLY WON RUAN MEI THAT'S 2 50/50!!! ... oh god my future pulls...
Can anybody here confirm if ruan mei is good in the fua team?( ratio,aventurine,topaz) I didn't get robin because i was out of tickets to summon because I got topaz so I thought about ruan mei who is versatile on many team to change from time to time, and was wondering if she'll fit right in the fua team
@@crackerssauce9313 got you my dude, i got mei the other day and ill try to snag her e1 and s1 while her banner still up, the damage comparison compared to my bronya is beyond measurement now I know why people call ruan mei the beat support up to this day and it really shows, my ipc is dealing whack damage to enemies
I got E1 Robin by luck and had no use for my Ruan Mei on my account because of how strong my Robin became, so I decided to pull on her rerun and was lucky enough to get it. I'm running her with Boothill and I haven't really noticed the difference like I did with Robin. Is her e1 really that good?
is ruan mei good in dot cause she is the only option or does she has special synergy? in my mind she has anti synergy no since the enemy act less aka less dot trigger. correct me if im wrong pls, idk should i pull for ruan mei for dot or wait a dot support. i really want ruan mei CAUSE THEY ATE WITH HER DESIGN, i wanted fu xuan s1 but nothing but i thoughts its ok cause pity for ruan mei s1 then found out memories of the past is good on her, i have 2 copies but saving 1 for trailblazer if in the future i run superbreak so s1.
@giuseppelosapio7079 just use meshing cogs on her and get e1. But if you're not confident with your luck, u can get her lc but give it to hmc and use memories on ruan mei
