@TinyGambler

Based on my personal experience, modern supports are always the priority if you want to have an easy time with endgame. I haven't pulled any dps from 3.X and I'm not really struggling because of my broken supports

I have pulled every single abundance character and you won’t be stopping me sir

@Truck-kun11

Whatever META the game is favoring. 

Even someone as broken as Robin took a considerable dip when the game started favoring HP scaling characters, with her Action-Advance being one of the only things keeping her on top and while Tribbie is probably the best support right now once the game stops making all modes AOE-centric she'll also take a considerable dip.

@rileybrandt8015

I’d say for newer players the most valuable dps (if you want a dps) would be either which ever one is currently new (unless they need premium supports). If I had to choose one I’d say firefly tho. She’s extremely f2p friendly being able to have a good team with Ruan mei (currently free) harmony mc and Gallagher. She also can easily use the herta store lc and her weakness implant allows you to be able to use her in lots of scenarios and for new players they won’t have characters for each weakness type

@dafire9634

to specify, Sunday only buffs the summon IF IT IS ALREADY SUMMONED by the time his turn comes around, otherwise it buffs only the character, this is the main reason why sunday is a full on nightmare to make work with castorice

@butterwishes

I believe in using lingsha on every team to ever exist 
Even when you dont need a healer

@shochimochi

As someone who has pulled Sunday since day 1, I'm just waiting for a summon meta to favor him. bro's so good with any dps that likes crit.

@Pachirisu2024

The best value characters are the ones you enjoy and waited so long to be pulling theres no wrong character I love my silverwolf to this day and now she even gets her deserved buffs😊

@GamesAndOwls

Another good practice I've found if you have a specific goober you really want to make last: pay as much, if not more, attention to signature light cones as characters.

Especially if you're running f2p options (or sometimes even their signature for early characters), someone elses signature can still be a big gain.

A friend of mine is a big Clara fan, and instead of joining all the doomerism when Yunli came out they were really happy because her LC was also Clara's new best in slot.

@Mario497

6:50 I do think tribbie sort of did a number of jiaoqiu though, the fact that tribbie provides a similar debuff to jiaoqiu while packing a good amount of damage as well and all type res pen on top of that while being the best user of the dance lightcone put him in a weird spot

@leila13dnd

As someone who has no Sunday, Robin or Tribbie or even Ruan Mei: yeah you notice when these guys are missing from your account.

I left the game right before Penacony and came back once Tribbie banner was pretty much over, so I couldn't get her. 

My Bronya is working overtime. I got lucky and managed to snag Mydei and Cas so at least I got my two dps characters. Absolutely getting my neck broken by the fact all endgame content needs you to have two full working teams though. (aside from maybe Simulated Universe but does that count as endgame?)

@mikkomuukka1755

Gallagher is such a workhorse. He is build for break, but has debuf applications for Archeron etc., you generate so much skill points with him because his ults forward + multiplivation + he is easy to build for speed since he does not need that much other substats... Only minus is that you need to get some eidolons to get his cleanse.

@aitroca06

I actually kinda disagree with the DPS perspective. As someone who has been pulling for only supports and sustains, please, focus on who as a DPS you're going to want to pull, and build around them - not the opposite. No 4 star unit can compete with a premium DPS, and pulling too many supports without a DPS will only thin out your resources. 
Skip more top-tier supports if you DON'T have the DPS for the archetype they sustain - at least after you get 2-3 good generalistic supports. For example, a Ruan Mei and a Tribbie. Premium DPS make such a massive difference in the endgame, I cannot stress this enough.

@notme8652

I accidentally got THerta on a 1x pull, and my god she has been carrying every patch and end game content. Especially since every single boss now summons goons on the side. I try to play Yunli THerta does more damage, i tried to play e1 Acheron, THerta spams more ults than her, I tried to play Hypercarry Blade, THerta slaps his numbers😭😭

@thepartridgesings

Right now? Anaxa for sure. Can go solo, can go 5v, doesn't need too many eidd, and works as sub or main dps

But it's def important to pick someone and build around it. Then you know you at least have one or two good teams

@admiralalyssa

I would be very interested to hear your thoughts on must-pull eidolons. I know for my own account, my E1 Robin and E1 Ruan Mei have got a lot of use for me, to make up for bad relic RNG. I always like prioritizing consistency, so saving up a few tickets to get that E1 or E2 on a rerun would be really helpful, especially since guide makers tend to gloss over the eidolons in their guides since it's usually for E0S0. I'm trying to pull that Fugue E1 before her banner ends to give my break team a kick in the ass to match my Herta team.

@dolphinghostboy2672

Keep up the good work I love ur content

@gray11state11-uj2ln

THANK U FOR THE VID !!

@georgebuii

This is just my personal experience, but If I had to choose, Acheron, and Castorice best teams to verticle invest since they are both Blast/AoE and can be played across all endgame. For whales (or smol dophins like me who save with 100k+ jades until I can pull a character I know is strong or works with my current DPS investments), if you E6 both that literally makes the game 3x easier even with HP inflation and they can be played in all endgame mode because they can ignore 42% res pen and break all weakness. In terms of the rest of the team slots, you literally just pick characters and invest into them that works well with ur DPS as supports/debuffers will always powercreep each other and DPS falling faster (unless you verticle invest into E2-E6 and have the team to run them). Might be boring way to play HSR, but Hoyo made the game like that so if you're "greedy and stupid" or extremely unlucky on ur pulls as F2P you are cooked IMO. Of course as long as they're built decently E0S1 and sometimes E0S0 can easily clear too, but you have to have god relics which is unrealistic.

Edit: Game is all about verticle investment or swipe to get new shiny toys to make life easier for 1-2 patches. There are characters with more value, but you can negate that by verticle investment into the right team comp/DPS IMO.

@Number1JeffLover

Yes after Anaxa is going to be Hyacine a wind remembrance sustain which is speed based
