nanook...the aeon of destruction who detests both personal desire and interference. who believes their position as an aeon, their duty is to rid the world of the cancer of civilization through power and force. labelled an enemy of mankind as they watch societies burn and crumble to ash for the sake of change. a necessary, just evil - completely detached from concepts like desire. an aeon who does not dirty things for their own selfish wishes

and you, the only mortal they've ever thought about more than once. who did not cry when the world ended. the mortal that lived the destruction of your home planet. that seethes with anger towards the aeons but does not let the will of it over take. nanook knows the feeling of resentment in short-life species more than any aeon across time. they're no stranger to such a thing, and yet it is your indifference that tugs them towards you

and yet they cannot help but watch you. cannot help but keep their gaze on you in the distant ways they are able as you board the astral express. cannot help but waver as they watch tragedy befall over and over and feel some urge to intervene.

they watch you carefully, as you choose to move forward on the path of destruction with no regards to them as an aeon. they think of making you an emanator - give you the will to embody them completely if only to close the distance between you as impartially as they can.

you are beyond their reach otherwise.

fang have u built fu xuan? if u have can u show me her build plzz,, i'm trying to figure out if the relics i gave her are good enough bc i literally don't understand anything or which ones she actually needs </3 🥺🤲🏽

here is my build!!! its a work in progress for sure. i would want her to have more hp and a little bit more speed + effect res. im also planning on replacing her lightcone with the preservation one from hertas store

but this gets the job done for now and she's rlly good!! i'd say she is as good as what u invest in her. she builds primarily on hp so you'll want a lot of that - but it's better to have a balanced build with some defense. i'd reccomend an energy regen rope + hp orb, one defense piece (chest or boots) and one hp piece (chest or boots)

she's a pretty comfortable character to build!!! there's rlly no specific perfect set. you could also use the two piece speed set, the quantam set (tho i dont think dps fu xuan is viable) but this is just what i prefer. some hp and some defense. i think the def reduction set would also be good on her but i haven't farmed it at all lol

for planar set i would use a different set than what i have!! i just put the best pieces i had but i think fleet of the ageless or broken keel would be better.

for substats you rlly just wanna stack a ton of hp and def on her, but effect res is also really good!! she's a simple character to build so don't overthink it.

for lightcones, i just used what i have. we are wildfire is pretty good on her and it's cheap to get. texture of memories from herta is the best option aside from her signature cause she's the only character who can use the effects lmao. landaus choice is decent as well.

hope this helps!!!

it's interesting? because if nanook considers himself the overseer of entropy and gradual decline and overall shows disdain for what he considers "impure" desire for destruction (i.e. all destruction that involves personal emotion like pleasure or vengeance) than it's safe to say that he has a lot in common with lan or the aeon of the hunt. both aeons function under the idea of a kind of justice

in that way it makes dan hengs transition from his 4 star form to his 5 star, very very fascinating to me. overall you can tell his character has a strong sense of justice - but it almost seems like the path of the hunt is almost ..mortal in comparison to the path of destruction? the hunt and characters within the hunt are motivated primarily through justice that self serves and fills personal desire.

but nanook and all the characters in the destruction path exist outside of that. they embody self sacrifice and some other greater, more "pure" motivation. a desire that exists outside themselves or lacks the same self interest and tends to exist for the sake of something else or something greater.

the hsr swarm person: im level 66 which is why im so confused why im suffering so much; using my gorjus maxed out jingyuan, luocha 6/8/8/8 + all traces unlocked, seele with an honestly really bad build and preservation mc for survival who also isnt the best

im leveling up il dan heng rn but i have NO destruction mats and even less light cone level up mats so i guess we'll be grinding

so i guess a good team then would be ildh luocha and who else??

ALSO TYSM FOR HELPING<3

take my words w a grain of salt because i've really only managed to clear level three a few times and almost beat difficulty 4 but i would assume the main issues is that you need to spend your resources on a preservation unit and debuffer / support.

for jy ESPECIALLY because he's very vulnerable to crowd control. your preservation MC is viable but i'd recommend march 7th over them (or gepard if you managed to get him). a lot of the content in swarm will want to oneshot you so damage mitigation is more important than healing in my experience.

(which makes sense because fu xuan is next and her entire kit is damage mitigation but kjfdksd i digress)

i would say with your current team, drop seele off of your team and use luocha primarily for breaking imaginary shield. replace seele with a semi-built debuffer or support (the best option for both JY and DH IL is tingyun, but pela is also very viable for both. asta also works very well but more for jy than dh il. yukong is Fine but her kit is imo tricky and shes also kind of skill point greedy)

so for team comp recc jing yuan, flex support / debuff (tingyun works best for jy and dh il, as does pela.) / preservation / shielder / luocha.

for dh il i use dh il, tingyun AND pela, and then gepard for best results

after that - it's mostly about choosing the correct path for you based on your team comps. i don't have a lot of experience with elation path in swarm but i hear it does well for jy so you'd have to try it.

you can use destruction path for dh il since you have luocha but i do not use it much since i think it works better for self-sustain characters and i find it very tricky to use. its not impossible but its kind of a suicide mission since it mostly focuses on hp consumption.

me personally, i universally always go for the preservation or remembrance paths, abundance also works very well for this. preservation is preferred for me since i have a crazy stacked gepard lmao. mix preservation with some healing or debuffing blessings and it basically keeps you alive no matter what

remembrance (aka freeze path) is also pretty good because well. it freezes everything and if something is frozen it cannot hurt you but it only works if you have someone like pela, march or geppie.

abundance works well but you have luocha so it might not be as necessary for you. still i would say the blessings for abundance in swarm are wayyy better than the normal SU. it's kind of up to you

either way, always try to go for things that contribute to your path though because once you hit max you can combine paths as well and get more bonuses. having a lot of path resonance is good.

ALSO MAKE SURE YOU READ EACH BLESSING CAREFULLY!! i know that is obvious but its a good reminder. understanding exactly what stats you have can make or break your run i find

also and this is just my personal experience but i will always choose curios over blessings if i have a chance because i think curios have better universal effects. blessings can be random but curious are imo more consistent.

i hope this helps!! i can give more advice if anyone wants specifically because clearing swarm is very dependent on ur actual account but i do pretty regularly clear difficult content in game!!!

nanook writing debut tayzzyronth debut next? giggles 🤭

PLEASE. don't wish this on me FDJFSDJ. i fear tayzzyronth would be nothing but big sexy monster porn. something about the fact their aeons that embody base needs...the only thing on their mind is reproduction like enough of this actually

falling into the world of an aeon....stumbling into the nest of the tayzzronth.. somehow it's melancholy there. noisy. dark and dry and foreign, the aeon almost look like it's resting. it looks lonely, and it can't speak but it responds when you speak to it. all it desires is company, for something to be beside and who more perfect than the soft, warm mortal that's somehow managed to find itself in this lightless, harrowing place.

it's by chance that you have appeared. the swaths of the swarm clear a path for you when the aeon beckons upon you. you lay with them, speak quietly as the arms on their torso pick you up to hold and feel. each time you visit. you know little of the aeon itself, only that they're a horror beyond comprehension. one that duplicates and reproduces so rapidly they think of nothing else. they say something in their language, you aren't sure what it means but it always makes their companions disappear in the fog

the groping comes after. their hands exploring your flesh tentative in ways that you do not protest again. faceless as their fingers smooth down your thighs - open your legs to touch against the seams of your garments as you squirm. you are so open and so exposed, cunt warm and sticky and vulnerable. another noise, a word in a language you don't know.

it's better you don't understand. an aeon who can only think of reproduction finds great opportunity within the wet warmth of you. what a wonderful vessel you will serve to be.

YOU’RE GOING TO GIVE ME UNHOLY GEPARD THOUGHTS

he is so corruptable and so so bottom me i want wring him dry.

he's so high strung.. such a stressful job and so big and imposing. not used to romantic attention from someone so aggressive, so he ends up agreeing easily to all your whims. and it makes him so much like a puppy, how could the captain of the silvermane guards be so much like a puppy?

but he is, really. so obedient and so loyal, he even listens when you tell him to spread his legs and bend over the side of your bed so you can look at him closer. and it feels strange, makes his chest feel itchy but he never says no because you always make it feel good. even though it's a bit shameful, you call his name (if you're being nice at least. if not, it's mr.landau or captain) and make him cry out from pleasure.

and he takes it so so well.

ari... im going insane for nanook my brain is bluescreening constantly you cant do this to me keep going i love you and your extremely wrinkly brain im kissing it tenderly

something about the impartial aeon who never intervenes too personally, who never gets involved in human affairs... who ruthlessly treads the path of utter destruction yet destests the impertinence of mindless violence..

who watches you tread their very own path. watches you embody self sacrifice and sustain as a result of your great loss. the reason you are alone in the world and yet they stand amongst the stars, gazing on you so carefully you seem to shiver as if you know of their presence.....anon im simply going to pass away

fu xuan anon again lmao! so i have: luocha, bronya, e1 clara, e1 arlan, e2 herta, asta, e2 pela, e3 sampo, e3 serval, e1 yukong, e1 dan heng (4 star), e3 natasha, e1 march 7th

idek if u need the eidolons but i gave em anyway. i am clueless about teams in this game so the only character ive been trying to build properly is luocha bcos hes a healer

okay so!! im assuming ur main dps is clara, arlan or maybe serval but based on ur account i would say pulling is a good overall choice!! but not completely necessary

so far the characters w who u have and who i assume u use as dps so clara and arlan do not have a lot of synergy with her HOWEVER. her kit is pretty future proof and will be very helpful to you once you hit late game / swarm because its what she's designed for. the f2p shielders work well but memory of chaos and swarm simulated universe esp like to oneshot you

so having her damage mitigation and her solo sustain will make the playing a lot more comfortable. i have a pretty decent account but its very easy for me to die if im not really careful even with my stacked gepard.

she's also one of the only characters who's going to provide teamwide crowd control + her banner will have lynx who is rumored to have team wide cleanse which will be huge. her banner will be very good regardless!!

i think for later content - having a stacked healer and a stacked shielder will pretty much always be necessary when u start having to form two teams. since u just have luocha for now, fu xuan will be a good addition.

for hsr in general i prefer prioritizing survival + speed > big damage as you get into late game. this is not necessary!! high risk high reward gameplay can also be very fun, but i have shit relic rolls so it is not always my favorite lol

it will really depend on what characters u have mainly built. for example for a clara team, you wouldn't want to use fu xuan since clara needs agro and the same goes for arlan who wants his damage to be low.

but for other characters like any future hunt characters / dps characters who like getting a lot of turns ( dh il and especially jing yuan) her damage mitigation will be incredible.

so tldr ; i would pull on her banner!! 5 star preservation with a unique kit and cleans ability + covering the role of healer and shield will be helpful for your account. she always be useful and if you build her with enough effect res she will basically make you unkillable.
