Character Analysis and Synergy
-
-
- Clorinde is known for her Electro abilities, and her banner notably lacks any Dendro 4-Star characters, which would have complemented her Aggravate Elemental Reaction.
- Alhaitham, a Dendro unit, is considered one of the best Hyperbloom units in the game. His synergy with the chosen 4-Star characters is limited, as Thoma’s capabilities don’t fully optimize Alhaitham’s potential in Burgeon teams.
- Bennett and Thoma‘s inclusion is particularly controversial among players. Bennett’s buff is considered trivial for Clorinde due to her low ATK cap, and while Thoma can work in Burgeon teams with Alhaitham, it isn’t an ideal setup.
-
New Characters
-
-
- Sethos is introduced as a 4-Star Electro Bow character, adding to the diversity but not necessarily improving the synergy with the 5-Star headliners.
-
Community Reactions and Concerns
Players have expressed frustration with the selection of 4-Star characters, particularly due to the absence of Kaveh and Chevreuse. Kaveh has not appeared on any Event Banner for over a year, and Chevreuse’s potential synergy with Clorinde as a healer in Overload teams is missed. The choices indicate a possible trend of reusing older 4-Star characters rather than featuring newly introduced ones.
Weapon Banner
The weapon banner mirrors the character banner in its questionable choices. It includes:
-
-
- Lithic Spear, a weapon with a specific regional boost that doesn’t align with the characters featured on the character banner.
- Clorinde’s signature weapon, which is highlighted as a worthwhile pull.
-
Upcoming Developments
The second half of Version 4.7 is expected to feature:
-
-
- Furina – a notable character in the current meta.
- Sigewinne – likely paired with Furina.
-
While the introduction of new characters and re-runs of fan favorites like Alhaitham and Clorinde is exciting, the choices for 4-Star characters in Version 4.7 have sparked debate. The lack of synergy and the apparent preference for older characters may influence players’ decisions on whether to pull from these banners. As always, players will be eagerly watching for how these choices impact gameplay and strategy in the new version.
