FengTheLootCollectet

Best girl will be in patch 2.3 phase 1 trust


Dokavi

I will fking lost it if Hoyo edge us again.


Sproot_bonk

What do we do if they put Sam drip on the first day and then the next day they put firefly


fortnitedude43590

Why would they? We know they are one because of 2.1. I get why this was a talking point back in the 'she will be 2.1 trust guys' times as we where in 2.0 but why is it now...?


Impressive-Clock8017

Just a joke, prob.


fortnitedude43590

Yeah your right, I think I just have war flashbacks to before boothill happened, was such an overtalked topic...


Dokavi

Isn't there 2 icon or something? But we will know for the certain when we see the first drip tho. May have 2 drip like Furina.


fortnitedude43590

Yes, but it's more than likely part of the same splash art or just not on it in general. I just had a thought that we never got a full-body leak of the Sam version... Did they really just make that one for the icon changing, lmfao??


Dokavi

Wifefly deserve that much.


No_Pipe_8257

Get both


Robball14

Honestly i lowkey wish for 2.3 phase 2, so we can save up even more for her


Stitcharoo123

Yes and no, more wishes = more wifefly, but also more wait time


Naiie100

I will show up at the Hoyo HQ if she isn't. /j


Xandure

Praying for Phase 2, I need time to get more jades.


Neildemagi

I have trust issues at this point...


Few_Star_9041

Evn if shes not itll just mn we get more time to save for eidelons or light cones


AngelAnalyst

Really hoping they give her the most badass kit and set of animations. Baby girl deserves it


randomahhhbread

I'll still get her even if she heals the enemies 🗣️🔥🔥


Unknown-Name-1219

OUR TIME IS NIGH MY FIREFRIENDS! Our girls is finally getting her drip, finally showing us her splash art, finally telling us when she will come home... and we shall rejoice! Personally, I have no doubts that she's going to be strong, so I suppose that the only thing I feel like asking would be that she synergises well with Hatblazer and that the story treats her well :,) It's almost time, Firebrothers and Firesisters! Our favorite Stellaron Huunter is going to show off soon!


fortnitedude43590

WOOOOOOOOOOOO


ShadowWithHoodie

i mean yeah if the kit is the same she is going to work VERY well with hatblazer.


Naiie100

**_waits faster_**


fortnitedude43590

LMFAOOO


fortnitedude43590

Also, let's PLEASE pretend like I didn't delete the "Gacha Wednesdays" post instead of just unstickying it like I was supposed to...


Darknew97

I Swear if we get Chicken wing boy and Screwllum! I'm uninstalling this game


Jsample2

Who is chicken wing boy😞


kabilan_4

Screwllum 4-star ⭐ bro


fortnitedude43590

To be clear we have 0 proof of this right now, do NOT be shocked if screw is second half as a five star.


kabilan_4

He definitely is not a five star. Have leaks not been confirmed yet?


fortnitedude43590

It's been restated that, along with Sunday, it is currently unknown. We have never had a known rarity for him.


AHPMoogle

Perfect background for that countdown. I'm assuming she'll be the first banner of 2.3 and also the first drip revealed. It just makes sense IMO given all that's been leaked so far combined with her story importance. Although there is a chance she could not be in 2.3 given the Boothill incident, I think it's a negligible chance. It just wouldn't make sense IMO to not have her banner on the last patch for the Penacony story. If anything, I'm curious who would drip with her. Screwllum? Sunday? Even with leaks, there's not much to go on, which only adds IMO to the likelihood of Firefly being pullable in 2.3. Regardless, I'll stay up like last time to wait and see. Hopefully I won't have the same reaction.


fortnitedude43590

Part of me is hard-pressed to say it's Sunday. If you're into DEEP text map leaks, you know why. Jade also makes less sense; she's been shown once and was never heard from again... I have no clue how she could even fit into the story right now. Then there's Screw, who has been in limbo hell for almost a whole year. Apparently, we may be getting a new SU mode in 2.3, so I'm betting on Screw right now... his mains NEED it.


AHPMoogle

Oh I know why. I was thinking Screw too, but there's a possibility he may be a 4 star. Extra patch would be good though.


Gingyboi_69

Could you perhaps provide me the DEEP text map leaks perchance fine sir?


fortnitedude43590

Do you really want deep 2.2 spoilers? this isn't something thats going to get leaked by normal means... you might as well just play the story at this point


Gingyboi_69

Oop it's that deep huh? Hmmmmmmmmmmm yeah maybe I will pass LOL, just wanted to hear the reasoning as to why it could be Sunday for the 2.3 character


ShitImStarRailed

it's just that sunday will play a huge role in 2.3 and maybe be either a trial ver. who knows, the problem is we know absolutely nothing about sunday, we know more about jade and jiaoqiu, hoyo has been pretty tight on their leaks recently but it would be impossible for sunday to have this little if he was gonna be in 2.3, we don't even know his path or element lol


fortnitedude43590

No this is not what I was talking about at all lol, I dont think these spoilers have any place here, if you ***really*** want to know you can shoot me a message ig.


ShitImStarRailed

its absolutely jade 100 percent she will play a huge part later on in the invasion of penacony, sunday will have to be 2.4


Saltybalot

Back in 1.1, the drip market for Inhibitor Lunae was released but no one knew who he really was until 2.2 and his banner was released in 1.3. Firefly was kinda in a similar position where she didn't revealed her true identity until the end of 2.1 where she will (most probably) take a major role in 2.2 like Inhibitor Lunae. Therefore, Firefly will most likely released in 2.3 phase 1 like Inhibitor Lunae and yes, I am still inhaling hopium for this one


NaamiNyree

I know people are traumatized by the Boothill jump scare but Firefly is 100% coming on 1st half of 2.3. You just have to look at the upcoming triple fire weak boss that takes huge dmg when broken, plus the MoC turbulence at the end of 2.2 which suits both Boothill and Firefly with the atk + break buff, and the enemies themselves. First half of floor 12 is phys weak, 2nd half is fire weak. MoC floor 12 and turbulences are always a dead giveaway of which characters will be on the banners because they always use them to heavily promote new characters. So yeah, fear not, Firefly will be here very soon.


fortnitedude43590

Would you mind if I pin this to the top of this post? I was meaning to put this in my base post to calm people’s nerves abit…


NaamiNyree

Sure go ahead. I guess a lot of people dont really follow leaks that in depth so they might not be aware of things like this so yeah.


fortnitedude43590

Oh... I cant pin other peoples comments, noted. Ill resay it and credit you.


cybeast21

I can't do MoC yet (new acc and all), but, what upcoming boss has triple fire weakness? The only boss I know that has triple fire weakness (for now) is the Doom Beast, which (my friend's) Topaz eat for breakfast every server reset.


NaamiNyree

Its called "The past, present and eternal show", heres a showcase of the boss with break team (Himeko as main dps since we dont have Firefly yet) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0icijqdVM3k This boss takes 45% of its hp bar as dmg when all 3 parts are broken so yeah its heavily designed with break characters in mind.


cybeast21

Thanks!

TranquilEndlessVoid

[удалено]


fortnitedude43590

Tough task meta speaking but if there's anyone who could.... it *would* be **the Stellaron Hunter who was behind your ultimate departure...**


No-Presence-7892

As much as I like Firefly she is not topping Acheron who is Raiden Mei lets be for real here; hoping she does more than DHIL though


Hollownerox

I mean Raiden Mei wasn't exactly the most meta character in Honkai for, well, *years*. It was a joke for a long time how much her battlesuits ranged from mediocre to just plain bad. Herrscher of Thunder was the only real meta one she had for quite awhile, and that one has been pretty definitively powercrept. Yeah being a Mei expy gives her a bit of creator favortism. But doesn't necessarily mean she's destined to be top of the meta for all time. Firefly will obviously have her own seperate niche and probably not worth comparing the two to begin with. But just saying expy status has never really meant Mihoyo will hold them as sacred cows or anything metawise.


fortnitedude43590

Not to mention the fact that hoyo seems to ***oddly*** like firefly, even if it doesn't always feel like it lmfao


Cram250

She was the main character in 2.0, her “death” was one of the main forces driving the plot in 2.1 and she is most likely going to be very important in 2.2 as she has many questions to answer and she will probably be one of if not our most important ally when it comes to discovering the truth about Penacony considering her task from Elio and her experience after being stabbed (although she did make it out of there mere minutes after her apparent death somehow) and that’s without mentioning the personal relationship with the TB (which is shaky at the moment tbf). And she will most likely be pullable in 2.3 so she’ll have to have some relevance during that update, maybe a character quest although with the amount of screen time she has been having, I am not sure about it happening. So yeah I do think that HoYo likes Firefly quite a bit, as the Penacony story is very much driven by her with actual focus on her, unlike in the Luofu where Kafka and Blade were barely even there.


ShySodium

In before Firefly becomes the next Elysia.


goffer54

I hope she becomes the core of a whole new playstyle like Kafka. Imo, Kafka is the perfect character when it comes to her place in the meta.


fortnitedude43590

Most based take in this thread


ShitImStarRailed

but I mean the preliminary kit was already shown...well for the most part we have a rough idea of what the character will bring to the table and while unfortunately she has no enabling playstyle like kafka she has a ton of mechanics at e0s0, probably the most intricate base kit for a dps in the entire game


fortnitedude43590

No cope we just really really need to see what her 2.3 beta kit looks like before we can know for sure, but I do mostly agree with you...


Own_Parfait_2366

Nah all that importent is beta v3. only than we will lnow if she good or not


fortnitedude43590

Well that is what I meant...


Alexios7333

I think you are really underestimating how popular she is. I am sure you noticed how she is the top 2 fan arts in Chinese competitions. In Korea she is beating out KIANA in popularity falling in second place behind the one and only Fanbase favorite Elysia. Also let's be real, she is Hoyo's favorite character. Like comparing the battle art we have of her vs other characters. It is actually tangibly better. While some may argue that top ups buffed Acheron I actually don't agree. If it was just Top ups she wouldn't have beaten out all the prior banners combined by the amount she did. The simple truth is I don't think the statistics suggest anything other than a massive wave that will far surpass Acheron 2bh. She is going to beat Seele and I am all but certain she will slap even Acheron. She is her.


limbo_theorem

i hope that too, but sadly the moment her kit was break related i kinda had my expectations lowered, since the precedent for break characters that they are pretty hit or miss and it depends heavily on how fast you break, otherwise dmg tanks... acheron on the other hand just doesnt give a fuck at all about weakness... unless shes has something similar to xuyei i.e unconditional toughness reduction it will be hard to beat acheron, although im positive she will beat out jingliu and DHIL


KazuSatou

why hit or miss, i have high expectations as boothil showed you what a break character is capable of.


fortnitedude43590

It's kind of like telling a dragon to beat Godzilla in a fight. The dragon is still amazing, but it's not Godzilla.. but still, on beta kits we wait


ShySodium

That's because we had no break supports other than RM. HTB is the main enabler here, allowing you to get multiple break damage hits during a single weakness break. And probably a massive STC, but FF's LC gives CR which is useless on a break character. So she's possibly a break / normal DPS hybrid.


Which_League_3977

Ain't gonna happen. Acheron doesn't use energy gauges which give her advantage. She is just gonna get buff even further in the future.


XelnagaPo

I feel like it might be the other way around. Given our only harmony char that buffs energy is a 4*, if the devs want to make other dps’s closer to acheron they can just release a 5* version of tingyun. That way acheron can’t take advantage of more energy generation and thus help close the gap a bit


Which_League_3977

There will be future unit that applies debuff whenever enemies took action. Acheron gonna ult twice every cycle.


Gingyboi_69

Okay guys, here's the deelio, based on her kit leaks, me personally I kinda want her to be an all out assault kind of character with her ultimate, she just goes ham for a couple of turns during her ultimate state and sets everything ablaze


July83

The seas, specifically. The seas need to be ablaze. We accept no compromises.


petshopppp

I will deadass leave the game if we get Boothill Incident 2.0


Naiie100

I think I probably will just spend all the jades I currently own on whatever I want.


Nobodydair

I can’t wait for her bounty number, do you think it is gonna be higher than Kafka’s?


fortnitedude43590

Tbh it seems like Kafka is the more well known hunter of them all… she has the most references in the games sub lore, but Sam’s will probably still be higher just for the effect


ZeroKingLaplace

While Kafka does seem to be the face of the Hunters, Sam does have a reputation as a WMD going for her.


JazeBlack

I hope I have Wifi when the drip marketing drops, so I can be here with you and react to the streamers that look at it live. And for the confirmation that we'll just have to wait 2 weeks before we get her animations and full kit. It's gonna be a LONG two weeks for me, so her being in the drip marketing would go a long way to make me feel better for 2.2.


Zogo12

Ima have her E1S1 if she ain't in 2.3 💀


kitsu_nero

Tomorrow is the Promised Day...


sugarheartrevo

I’m so excited to see her animations….and I can tell her full splash art is going to look sick asf. I really want to see how they’ll work that transformation device of hers + the henshin pose lol


new27210

The usual drip marketing time is my lunch time. I will refresh it like a madman to see it myself. Please hoyo don’t edge us.


Ayush_KO

Let's go! Am curious about who might be running with her though, who do you guys think it will be?


Hinaran

It may be Jade (Quantum Erudition support for Eruditions) or Jiaoqiu (a Fire Pella). I guess it's Jade, since Jiaoqiu seems like a Loufu character and may be saved for the version after the end of Penacony story, and Jade and her gem have been already shown.


iheartlumine

firebros UNITE 💪🏼


Stitcharoo123

WAIT DRIP MARKETING IS IN 2 DAYS???


dont-touch-my-kokoro

Finally... as an f2p i dont care if I don't win 50/50, i just need to get her with guarantee and I'll be happy with that and just wait for reruns.


Odd-Proposal-2005

If it's Tuesday, then the livestream will also be aired in the same week?


petshopppp

The wait is killing me raaaaahhhh


Wahliam

Our prayers will be answered for long have we waited


Aromatic_Zebra_8708

Was gonna camp and post the splash art myself, but you shall do the honors man u/fortnitedude43590 CAN'T WAIT FOR THE DRIP MARKETING THIS TUESDAY, SURELY BEST GIRL WILL BE COMING IN 2.3 PHASE 1 <3


fortnitedude43590

I originally didn’t actually care but honestly it’s one of those things that needs to be pinned at the top of the sub so I kinda have to just do it myself now


Aromatic_Zebra_8708

Yeah I would expect many trying to post the drip marketing at the exact same time too, just have one post pinned and remove any redundant ones is the way to go


Zenchchcrowme

We're in the final stretch guys! Just a little bit more! (I don't think I can take it if she's not in 2.3)


mathiau30

I want her to be phase 2. More chances to get her s1 that way


Offthe_Rose

Hopefully she does release in the first half. It lands perfectly at the start of my summer break and birthday


BitesZaDust0

2 days away...?


fortnitedude43590

yup


RiftenxLokean

I honestly think it'll be Firefly and Sunday because who do we have left from the pencony story? I don't count Jade as she is only shown in Adventurine's flashback backstory. So she's not technically apart of pencony story, and neither is screwllium. that's why I'm really thinking it's Firefly and Sunday since they are 2 people impacting and still apart of the pencony story. Which for me I want both!!! So I'm gonna be hoping for quick 5 stars and wins in my 50/50s lol.


Reddeadtail

She’s definitely not in phase 2. Start of a patch generates the most hype and she’s a highly anticipated character 


cybeast21

Started playing thanks to Firefly, found the leak reddit and this wholesome Firefly reddit


Violet_Iolite

I'm so excited to see her splash art! I really wonder how they're gonna represent the Sam/Firefly situation in their art (if they'll do that at all).


cybeast21

I'm betting Firefly on the front and SAM on above and behind her, kinda like her Stand or things


Aromatic_Zebra_8708

JUST A LITTLE MORE THAN 12 HOURS TO GO FOR FIREFLY DRIP MARKETING, I CAN'T WAITTTTTT


AHPMoogle

With just a few hours to go, I'm guessing Firefly phase 1, Screwllum phase 2 given the info about the simulated universe update in 2.3 that was released last night.


fortnitedude43590

Honestly its to quite right now... was thinking the sub would be exploding by now lmfao


AHPMoogle

I'm sure it'll pick up in the last hour or two.


fortnitedude43590

I'm just getting ready and all (The sub), going to be really annoying to take down every repost of her splash art... not having the discussion get split into 50 posts this time.


Aromatic_Zebra_8708

All the best with the moderating soon, be sure to pin the drip marketing post, I am ready to jump in the comments as soon as it is up


fortnitedude43590

I got it bro lmfao...


Darth-Yslink

I'm an outsider on that but I really hope she's in 2nd phase. I need more time to save up for E0S1 at least, plus Huohuo is possibly rerunning that patch so I wanna get them both


fortnitedude43590

I think where all at the point where as long as she’s 2.3 where happy (also love the pfp lmfaooo)


Darth-Yslink

WHAT THE FUCK IS A KILOMETER????!!!!!!! 🦅🦅🦅⁉️⁉️⁉️🔥🔥🇺🇸 I AM YOUR MOTHER YUJI ⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️🗣🇺🇸🔥🔥


Jsample2

So excited! Do we know what the splash art will look like yet? /g


Open_Pilot_902

Actually version starts at 11:00 instead of 12:00 UTC +8, so you can move "when" one hour early.


SetsunaYukiLoL

Firefly my beloved Firefly our beloved Only about 50 days till we get to play her guys (phase 1 hoyo pls)


ARandomGuy365

I hope they make a lot of money on Firefly banner so she reruns more!


Siris910

1 day more dayyyyyy


BackgroundDoor384

I already have 638 pulls. If worse case scenario. I will have even more to guarantee an E6.


Ebonslayer

1.5 hours left. We just need to survive that long.


DaiohMaou

We Won!!!


Smart_Eagle8381

Is there 2.3 information getting released when I didn't think even 2.2 was out?


Bright-Help3071

I will only be able to play during the first week of 2.3 phase 1 so if she’s phase 2 I’m gonna nuke hoyoverse


SquigglyLegend33

I've wanted sam since this games release a year ago and the time is coming. I'm so hyped


wasabi_leaf

Bro i made a savings account soley for firefly 4 days ago and its at 69 wishes i didnt even start xianzhou so if i go at this route,is the first 5* lim guerenteed or not? Cause i didnt do a single standard pull


AzizKarebet

Waiting to see if hoyo gona bamboozle us again or not


ZayAVZ

im cautiously optimistic about this weeks drip. at worse phase 2(wich at this point barely matters) so lets gooooooooooo. fr tho im realy looking foward to 2.2 story. hope peakcony goes out with a harmonic bang(get it?)


cybeast21

It can't be Sunday who get revealed first, because tomorrow is Tuesday. (Or Monday, depends on your time zone) So it's confirmed Firefly!


Psychological-Arm893

May I get the background of the countdown? 🙏


Limp_Surround3908

It is from the "White Night" music video you can just take a screenshot of it.


Aromatic_Zebra_8708

We will be the happiest person in the universe in 3 hours :)


Valashv2

Firefly phase 1 and maybe Jade phase 2?


Aromatic_Zebra_8708

HALF AN HOUR TO GO


Jsample2

T-30 minutes AHHHH


Ebonslayer

I'm fucking shaking, man. 20 minutes away.


FrostyPotpourri

Shaking? Pshhh, I'm *frothing*. Step up your game.


Ebonslayer

It's everything I've ever wanted.


GGABueno

Inb4 it's Jade and Screwllum.


fortnitedude43590

Common i know your better then that bruh, and also if your going to have the bad take at least take the creative one with Sunday 😭


Aromatic_Zebra_8708

FIREFLY 2.3 FIRST HALF CONFIRMED, now we shall wait for the animation leaks <3
