I like that every single "I finally beat SO as F2P and it feels greatttttttt" post incorporates at least 99% of the characters in S+ section
PassionIll32812026-01-22 02:30
I mean you can get all of these characters F2P, and I don't see why having and using these characters would be weird. There are soo many posts about them though and I have to say they're getting kinda annoying to see every single patch
babangelsin2026-01-22 02:37
You can get any set of 2-3 characters in a short amount of time as a F2P new account.
Thing is, your acquisition rate will plateau immediately and your choices will become more critical. Skipping and saving becomes part of the efficiency calculus. This puts value in using what you have instead of pulling the most recent thing. After all, you can clear one SO with shilled units but not the next and the next after that, unless you have some insane pull luck.
There is that, and also the fact that there is literally 0 value in posting a clear with shilled units, especially if every other post also did the same thing.
PassionIll32812026-01-22 02:42
Yeah I agree. If you cleared this boss with a character no one thought of before or a unique way, I would be very interested. Unfortunately, everyone decides that THEIR clear is super important and even if they cleared using the shilled characters everyone should know.
Hanabi_Simp2026-01-22 03:06
Yeah, it might sound kinda dickish but SO is pretty much "pull for latest shilled unit" bait and a lot of new F2P players will have plenty of stuff to clear because all they have pulled will be the new shilled units unlike some of us that have been F2P for years and have plenty of older units that just aren't effective against the newer stuff and also don't have the funds to get most of the shilled units.
Like, if people wanna celebrate their achievement I don't really care that much, but there's no much merit if your teams are Lauma/Columbina/Nahida/Nefer, Innefa/Flins core and Neuvi/Furina.
GetFiltered2026-01-22 10:56
The game now has enough permanent content to acquire over a dozen of characters, more than enough to build several strong meta teams. And meanwhile recurring content will keep arriving, giving you even more pulls, so you can also grab good upcoming ones as well.
babangelsin2026-01-22 11:27
not a dozen, you get around 600 pink wishes and 250 blues from the world with thorough exploration and questing
kunsore2026-01-22 04:06
It says “Only show Dire data” - doubt many f2p data including here
Electrical_Ad_93302026-01-22 10:51
I’m f2p and I have all the characters in S+ section. People who think f2p players only play 4 star chars is braindead tbh, like it’s all about primos management, not clicking the pull button every times the primos count go past 160 is not that hard.

"understanding of combat" and it's just 3 bosses where hydro is required (with the one exception being Mavuika teams)
WhooooCares2026-01-22 02:26
Hydro is needed pretty often wouldn't you say? Off-field hydro application with damage and buffing always has a place. It's not like we just happened to need hydro this SO, we need it every SO.
z3phyn2026-01-22 02:56
K but your comment still doesn't make sense, the first SO with Columbina out has all three bosses needing hydro, that's never happened before. A rotation of Frost Operative, Papilla, and any lunar boss would see all hydro except Columbina plummet in usage. You're at the whims of Hoyo for better or for worse depending on who you play. If you can't get that through your head then your understanding of meta is no better than the community you're criticizing
Draw-Two-Cards2026-01-22 03:30
It is always the people who don't understand the term meta who get deeply offended when their character drops down it for some reason.
Weaponmaster4702026-01-22 02:21
Wow, the Hydro shill SO lets the long-running top Hydro units shine, whoduthunk.😂
LiamMorg2026-01-22 02:46
Strict meta becomes a lot less relevant in SO where matchups are more important than anything else anyway. This rotation in particular heavily caters to Neuvillette and Furina with the crab. Besides, anyone saying that simply fails to understand that as long as Furina has a mainstay partner as good as Skirk, she's not going anywhere.
Outside_Internal_1362026-01-22 03:15
its neuvillete shill boss what did u expect?
bluedragjet2026-01-22 03:20
>"yElAn aNd fUriNA aReN'T mEtA aNyMoRe! cOluMBIna wILl rEPlaCe tHEM!"
Let ignore the big crab that requires high hydro application, the fatui soldier that can be frozen, and the abyss chicken dog that wants a reaction that can only be triggered by hydro
WhooooCares2026-01-22 03:30
That's a prime example of being meta.
LesserTierArchon2026-01-22 06:01
this is why the true meta has been harder to pinpoint ever since new endgames were introduced
zhongli is meta every time there's geo in theater because he's still the 2nd best geo in the game and there's almost always the centaur and the spider robot
Jean is meta every time there's a boss in stygian that can take fall damage
theater and stygian are so restrictive in the sense that they lock out such a big portion of the roster, back when endgame was an even playing field for everyone it was much easier to decide on a definitive meta
ImJustVeryCurious2026-01-22 07:05
did you make the comment of "aMbEr aNd jEaN aReN't MeTa aNyMoRe!" last stygian?

disabledarcana2026-01-22 02:24
For me, the biggest problem in this is that you need so much hydro, and if you don't, you better hope you have the newest and shiniest Nod Krai characters or you aren't getting past difficulty 4. I ended up using Arle Bennett Kazuha and Xilonen on the second boss not because they were the best, but because I ran out of Nod Krai hydro/electro to trigger Lunar Charged and had to brute force it
strawwwwwwwwberry2026-01-22 03:17
I can clear the shield dude and crab on fearless. I cannot clear thAT DAMN DOG on menacing 🤯🤯🤯
MilesGamerz2026-01-22 04:16
frfr me too, and i have columbina and ineffa
JAntaresN2026-01-22 04:37
Even with these two you gonna need a strong dps that can work with them. In my case I used mavuika and xilonen and it worked out fine.
kugisaki-kagayama2026-01-22 05:38
Should be able to fearless with those 2 and sucrose
Not that I think it's a good idea but you don't need a strong dps for it
Big_Map57952026-01-22 08:39
Yeah, I used Albedo for the last slot. All C0R0. The team had 0 on-fielders. But damn, that thing was tanky!
TrueLink002026-01-22 12:32
I’m in a similar boat, and I have the full Nefer team.
They keep making Stygians around her, but she’s so clunky on the first cycle. She’s also the first character where I feel punished for not getting her weapon.
casper_072026-01-22 03:33
Theres actually ways to reduce the hydro needed, at least for the second boss. Third and first boss is basically required but u can get away with something like an overload or melt team for the fatui guy since u can just break the shield with high elemental application rate. I used my premium arle melt and cleared it in 90s
bbputinwork2026-01-22 04:04
The dog I used a premium Nefer team.
Fatui guy I used Skirk to brute force, I did that last time he was in Stygian.
The pyro crab gave me trouble, but I ended up doing a scuffed clear with vape Mavuika.
xADDBx2026-01-22 05:15
How did you brute force that boss with Arle?
The shield pretty much didn't move for my Arle team
disabledarcana2026-01-22 05:20
Frequent shredding with Xilonen and Kazuha, then use Bennett before going to town on the shield. Shredding does help the amount of the bar removed it seemed.
fakuryu2026-01-22 05:33
Will try this one, so far it's the only one I can clear but I needed to use my Columbina and Aino. I can't clear the dog w/o Columbina and Ineffa, currently Ineffa, Furina C3, Xilonen C2, and Sucrose C6 cant hit hard enough to finish off the dog.
LumiRhino2026-01-22 06:11
I like the idea of the first boss, but the ads are tuned way too highly. Currently no meta team uses a grouper, and Kazuha is a slight downgrade from Xilonen DPS wise for the teams that can use a grouper. I think somewhere from 12-15% of the boss's HP might've been fine, because from what I see even fearless is kinda hard for C0R1 characters to cleanly clear, so I can't imagine how it looks on Dire. Considering Lunar Reactions do 300% damage to the shield, and the shield is 45% max HP, I think the ads having 15% HP would make sense, since without the 300% multiplier for lunar reactions those would also do 15% max HP to break the shield.
I'm also fine with them rerunning a boss with the exact same HP. If they increased the shock trooper's HP that would've actually shown that they want to accelerate powercreep. Shock Trooper at least has some non-Electro/EC strategies that work.
Lastly the crab, idk many players have Neuvi but I feel bad for those that don't, because I honestly don't know how you deal enough Hydro damage to all the crabs without him. They went too hard with tailoring this boss for Neuvi, at the very least they could've removed the laser hit from the crabs so they always walk towards you.
FlameDragoon9332026-01-22 07:50
I cleared the crab with Mualani. But yeah it does feel bad.
tracer4b2026-01-22 12:27
The ads have 18% HP each, so to break the shield it works out to 15% for Lunar reactions (a little more in practice since not 100% of your damage is Lunar), 18% for grouping method, and 45% for brute force.
Really the thing with this boss is the HP, it’s tuned to be a challenge even for baseline Lunar teams at D5/D6 which means you really need higher investment to clear with anything else
markcan_killua2026-01-22 02:21

Sigewinne in B tier
That's gotta be a new record
masterdiwa2026-01-22 02:36
We're squeezing in every single hydro unit for this cycle. 😅
Talia_Black_Writes2026-01-22 02:47
No seriously. I never thought I would be able to use Ayato in Stygian but I needed Flins for the Abyss Dog and his fast NAs combined with Ineffa were the next best way to shred the Shocktrooper’s shield.
narium2026-01-22 03:07
You gotta do what you gotta do.
Talia_Black_Writes2026-01-22 02:48
Ayato also made it up there! Though I suspect he’s being used mostly with the Skirk team brute-forcing the crab to buff her NAs
AzureFirmament2026-01-22 02:59
Hmmm not sure what you were expecting but Sigewinne is in B tier like 99% of the time in the past two years. Not matter if it's abyss or SO fearless or Dire, she's always been like that. She shows up in many speedrun records as well, very likely including this SO.
adagietto2026-01-22 05:35

xess2026-01-22 06:57
Based on the numbers on YS helper, only 434 submitters have her, and of those 434, only 57 used her. Really small sample compared to abyss which had 100k submissions. Submissions are still open though, so should have more coming in.
Solacen2026-01-22 02:25
Who the heck is the 0.1% who is using Aloy in SO?
SF-UberMan2026-01-22 03:02

pzlama3332026-01-22 04:41
A Kazuha Xilonen Aloy Chongyun team against dire shock trooper within 92 seconds. C6 Kazuha with infusion can do some damage, but not that much without reaction. C6 Xilonen also has some damage, but only 5 seconds per rotation. I'm not sure whether it is legitimate and I feel it has a good chance to be a hacker.
LesserTierArchon2026-01-22 05:53
aloy, gorou, yoimiya can use macros to rapid fire and launch like 15 arrows per aim shot cancel
kaeporo2026-01-22 07:39

Akikala2026-01-22 02:27
HYV saw people clowning on Neuvi and they took that personally lol.
Now even SO is no longer purely single target so ignoring AoE in "meta" discussions is extra nonsensical.
BlueberryJuice252026-01-22 03:19
Oh man I loved that crab boss. People clowned on him too long. Everyone just needs to understand that whatever the top DPS is always the one that is shilled. They can easily shut down a characters mechanics with certain bosses.
Every character so far had shill boss. This is Neuvi's first time tailor made shill and his AoE absolutely crushed it.
RubApprehensive25122026-01-22 03:57
Meta is completely subjective. What is meta on your account won't be the same for another's account.
LesserTierArchon2026-01-22 05:51
with theater lunar mode stages and bosses that spawn adds, aoe is now relevant in all 3 endgames
which is nothing unexpected, I knew this was going to happen back when people were coping about "aoe isn't important"
Varithos152026-01-22 06:03
They released a skin for Neuvi this patch. The shill makes sense.
GetFiltered2026-01-22 10:58
He has always been high when content doesn't have straight up hydro immune enemies or mechanics. Higher than Mavuika even.
Goes to show that he's so ridiculously broken that even his lower damage doesn't convince people to switch to someone else. The kit itself is too good.
Hojuma2026-01-22 02:33
I checked their spiral abyss stats and yep, solo Rizzley "team" is still on the top teams. Those are some really dedicated Rizzley mains.
Scratchy992026-01-22 02:44
Nilou being relevant even after Columbina's release is a welcome surprise
Hanabi_Simp2026-01-22 03:31
Even if she's not being used for her bountiful blooms, she's still a really good and quick off-field hydro applier that can use a supportive set and with her weapon also gives EM to the party.
Also with the whole free constellation thing she's now at C1 for a lot of player which pretty much makes her off-field hydro uptime permanent.
Even if she isn't used for her innate kit she's still a good character for this stuff, also because she doesn't need energy to apply off-field hydro.
TetraNeuron2026-01-22 10:09
Nilou's often the only non-Nodkrai unit, and since she stacks HP normally, she can actually give the full Lunar-DMG moonsign buff (36%) by herself
zydrate101892026-01-22 02:47

Didn't have trouble with this one, I'm kinda surprised. First time around doing the first boss I only did half of its health because I was playing loke trash and just gave up, but later today I felt like doing it because I had spare time. Nefer dismantled it, Varesa Overload deleted the Fatui guy and a faux Skirk team (Ayaka, Escoffier, Xingqiu, Yelan) destroyed the crab. Quite easy honestly.
Dark_Magicion2026-01-22 05:05

I WILL wale for Mavuika. Fish, cook, mine, even collect MINT for her. I WILL present her signature at her feet. If she isn't satisfied I WILL pull for her Constellations. "I don't need any ER fam, I got you" She will tell me and my knees will turn into dust.
Mavuika can take all my primogems. I WILL present to her my cancelled credit card. "This is unnecessary, I'm with you my friend 🌞!" She will grab her bike and say "It's bikening time!" There will be no hint of sadness in my eyes anymore. There will be only pure, burning freedom from your cooking hands.
What a beautiful world.
qri_pretty2026-01-22 06:02
I’ll use Skirk and Neuvillette, maybe Raiden to some extent, or I’ll maybe get Flins, Nefer and Zibai. NONE of them want Mavuika. Even Raiden prefer to play with Columbina, Furina and Nahida, which means a lot.
Royal_empress_azu2026-01-22 05:24
Stygian stats being posted in less than a day is hilarious because it's mostly only spenders at this point.
Almost every single character in the fearless section has C1+ as the baseline.

Lmao that's such a weird comparison. Furina is literally almost ALWAYS at the top or s+ in every end game even after people started saying this shit. It's just ANOTHER example of a clear trend. Unlike sigewinne plus 99% vs 8% is nowhere near the same
Clades_Candor2026-01-22 07:00
Furina is a hindrance at c0, only skirk actually wants her. It's hydro shill and she has the easiest hydro application, so nothing more. If you look at the stats, u can see the average constellation for furina is always minimum 2-3, cuz she is not worth the baggage before that.
This is like pretending zhongli would suddenly be an amazing char if they constantly kept making SOs that require geo shield break, in reality u are just picking a worse option just to deal with the shill mechanic, not because the character is great.
Legitimate_Skill_2042026-01-22 07:17
Furina is one of the most beloved chars in the game, plus she is a few years olf now. even f2p players could have gotten a con or two for her at this point without a problem, ofc her cons are going to be higher on avarage. she is very much still in a good spot in the meta and with a buff like hers she always will be. this is nothing like zhongli with little to no damage and a tiny buff with an element thats nowhere near as good as hydro
CryoStrange2026-01-22 06:10
Burst reliant dps are so so dead. They have to give them buffs or at least make it start with full energy.

JunkKnight2026-01-22 08:57
Reminds me of the good old days of Zhongli slander. People would call him a comfort pick, sub optimal, DPS loss, etc. then you turn around and he's at 90%+ usage in abyss for the 30th month in a row.

Honestly I know overload teams for the shield boss can be done, but maybe because i play with controller, I can't really break the shield fast enough or maybe I'm slow.

How TF do you clear that first boss? Even on menacing I'm getting my shit pushed in :(
Is level 80 C1 Flins (6/6/9 talents) on R5 Tamayuratei just not enough DPS? :( C3 Aino, C6 Ororon/Fischl, C1 Kokomo.
Is Level 90 that important in this case?

Somehow this is the first SO I cleared fearless day 1 rather than needing to farm for days to level characters and pull new ones in order to do.

Thing is, your acquisition rate will plateau immediately and your choices will become more critical. Skipping and saving becomes part of the efficiency calculus. This puts value in using what you have instead of pulling the most recent thing. After all, you can clear one SO with shilled units but not the next and the next after that, unless you have some insane pull luck.
There is that, and also the fact that there is literally 0 value in posting a clear with shilled units, especially if every other post also did the same thing.
Like, if people wanna celebrate their achievement I don't really care that much, but there's no much merit if your teams are Lauma/Columbina/Nahida/Nefer, Innefa/Flins core and Neuvi/Furina.
This community's understanding of combat never fails to amaze.
Let ignore the big crab that requires high hydro application, the fatui soldier that can be frozen, and the abyss chicken dog that wants a reaction that can only be triggered by hydro
zhongli is meta every time there's geo in theater because he's still the 2nd best geo in the game and there's almost always the centaur and the spider robot
Jean is meta every time there's a boss in stygian that can take fall damage
theater and stygian are so restrictive in the sense that they lock out such a big portion of the roster, back when endgame was an even playing field for everyone it was much easier to decide on a definitive meta
Tho so far i really do not like this SO
Not that I think it's a good idea but you don't need a strong dps for it
They keep making Stygians around her, but she’s so clunky on the first cycle. She’s also the first character where I feel punished for not getting her weapon.
Fatui guy I used Skirk to brute force, I did that last time he was in Stygian.
The pyro crab gave me trouble, but I ended up doing a scuffed clear with vape Mavuika.
The shield pretty much didn't move for my Arle team
I'm also fine with them rerunning a boss with the exact same HP. If they increased the shock trooper's HP that would've actually shown that they want to accelerate powercreep. Shock Trooper at least has some non-Electro/EC strategies that work.
Lastly the crab, idk many players have Neuvi but I feel bad for those that don't, because I honestly don't know how you deal enough Hydro damage to all the crabs without him. They went too hard with tailoring this boss for Neuvi, at the very least they could've removed the laser hit from the crabs so they always walk towards you.
Really the thing with this boss is the HP, it’s tuned to be a challenge even for baseline Lunar teams at D5/D6 which means you really need higher investment to clear with anything else
That's gotta be a new record
Now even SO is no longer purely single target so ignoring AoE in "meta" discussions is extra nonsensical.
Every character so far had shill boss. This is Neuvi's first time tailor made shill and his AoE absolutely crushed it.
which is nothing unexpected, I knew this was going to happen back when people were coping about "aoe isn't important"
Goes to show that he's so ridiculously broken that even his lower damage doesn't convince people to switch to someone else. The kit itself is too good.
Also with the whole free constellation thing she's now at C1 for a lot of player which pretty much makes her off-field hydro uptime permanent.
Even if she isn't used for her innate kit she's still a good character for this stuff, also because she doesn't need energy to apply off-field hydro.
So we have folks like Yanfei, Diluc, Razor who have an actual 0% usage rate...
But we actually have a notable 0.1% usage rate for Aloy.
I haven't even had a chance to try this Abyss yet:
# WHO'S THE BASED CHADLOY STYGIAN PLAYER???
I WILL play Klee. Her best team will have Mavuika. I WILL play Raiden, Chillde, Wriosthesley, Sharktard Girl and more. And they all will want Mavuika. She will use your spine as the highway to a new era for the meta!
I WILL wale for Mavuika. Fish, cook, mine, even collect MINT for her. I WILL present her signature at her feet. If she isn't satisfied I WILL pull for her Constellations. "I don't need any ER fam, I got you" She will tell me and my knees will turn into dust.
Mavuika can take all my primogems. I WILL present to her my cancelled credit card. "This is unnecessary, I'm with you my friend 🌞!" She will grab her bike and say "It's bikening time!" There will be no hint of sadness in my eyes anymore. There will be only pure, burning freedom from your cooking hands.
What a beautiful world.
Almost every single character in the fearless section has C1+ as the baseline.
This is like pretending zhongli would suddenly be an amazing char if they constantly kept making SOs that require geo shield break, in reality u are just picking a worse option just to deal with the shill mechanic, not because the character is great.
We get introduced to this djmbaas boss rush and it starts at 0 energy. Gods. I fucking hate hoyo
Queen Shit!
(It's as a Neuvi support isn't it)
Simple as.
Is level 80 C1 Flins (6/6/9 talents) on R5 Tamayuratei just not enough DPS? :( C3 Aino, C6 Ororon/Fischl, C1 Kokomo.
Is Level 90 that important in this case?
