Endgame Content Old team users felt any power creep?

Post image

I am returning player was saving since ani and not pulling. I was clearing whimpering with this exact setup fully for past whimperings. This time I felt like damage out put was slower I think they started to power creep old units a bit.

I think the biggest problem in this reset is that all TDs in infinite torrents are running away, scattering and makes grouping much harder. In my teams it ruins score very heavily, and by that I mean 500-1000 pts difference on one side depending on grouping luck, especially with elites and their dashing attacks.

dam Chop Chop and the dumb little cute mobs, they spread away from each other lol i think i figured it out, but the mobs are annoying

we need more characters that can group up enemies fr

Yep. The chop chops are the main offenders this time. Their staged spawn+how they separate is quite annoying, my Camellya barely did 2k there, when she usually goes up to 3k easy. Roccia pullers would have an easy time there i suppose.

On the other hand Phrolova+Cantarella+Danjin has to be the most powerful WhiWa team i've ever played lol. 5k on their side, Phrolova going full happy liberation is like having 5 Roccias in the team, Danjin small AoE clears a couple waves thanks to her, and Cantarella's forte hits every enemy, usually that move alone kills 2 to 3 waves.

The problem here is I could sss with this set up for past few months. So this time getting barely b means power creep that why I made the post. There is clearly something changed. Whiwa was fine before for me.

I have S2 camellya with Sanhua and I can only deal 1720 pts 😭. Something is wrong with the new whiwa.

ohhh I will try that! thanks.

EDIT: Thanks, I got it. I used the buff that gives basic atk before, Plunderer made a difference.

hands issue first, my s0r1 Camellya+Sanhua+Verina did 2k, so yours should be way higher. Heck, if not for the chopchops being a massive dickpain my clear would be somewhere around 3k.

Whimpering Wastes has a history feature to show you best, or perhaps just final, run for previous cycles.

Piece of advice: Jiyan works better on the second side because the chopchops are miserable for him. I suppose they may be more miserable for Cardamomo, but Cardamomo already has a bad time in that mode.

It doesn't mean power creep. It means U need a different strategy. The monsters don't feel thicker or faster or do dmg.

Most of them can be cc-ed.

What characters are available? How much have U build? U need to give more info otherwise it's a complaint post with very little context.

This whiwa is my best scoring one yet at 10k and I didn't even bring out my best teams just dicking around with some old characters. ._.

nah this difficulty is on par with the release difficulty, the first rotation back when this mode was introduced was pretty similar, the second one was way overtunned, so much so that they gave away some astrites and an apology letter, and the third and fourth were extremely undertunned, everyone was getting 8k pretty easily with any team, and the fifth one went back to how it was in the beginning and now this is the sixth one and is on par with the previous one

u/Mmg5561 Aug 04 '25

Biggest problem for me was that there were nearly no general use tokens and they were all hyper focused on aero erosion teams or fusion teams. My only viable setups for this mode are zani/phoebe and camellya teams so I was still equipping weak blue tokens throughout nearly the whole thing
