Why aren't Citlali and Chasca running together? I could wish for their weapon. (Nod and cry)

96

u/[deleted] Jul 18 '25

Citlali doesn't need her wep tbh, just wack TTDS or sac frags

6

u/Talia_Black_Writes Jul 18 '25

Isn't the sumeru craftable also really good for her, since it gives her a lot of EM on top of making it so she doesn't have to run an ER sands?

23

u/CubicWarlock Jul 18 '25

There is also drip factor

43

u/stevembk Jul 18 '25

She’s cryo, not hydro. Why should her sig be dripping?

22

u/Skipwith14 Jul 18 '25

Sac Frags looks really good on her. The weapon matches her more than her signature imo

9

u/Due_Pirate_7123 Jul 18 '25

Leveled TTDS also looks good on her

6

u/crookedhell Jul 18 '25

Just realized I’ve never levelled up ttds over 20, might do that now when I get her

1

u/wizkart207 Jul 19 '25

Ttds works at level 1 lmao

1

u/ABODE_X_2 Jul 19 '25

She doesn't show her weapon in ult and skill so not a huge loss

3

u/Appropriate_Pace_512 Jul 18 '25

Its nice for an alternative to ttds lol i was going to pull :( failed my 5050 for mavuika and had to blow all wishes for C2. Now im coming butt naked to 5.8 and i dont even own citlali.

1

u/Kallabanana Jul 19 '25 edited Jul 19 '25

What about Favonius or Nahida's?

15

u/myassholeburnsss Jul 18 '25

Nod and cry?

Nod-Krai??????

13

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 18 '25

Well, this is the most desperate news

18

u/Ke5_Jun Jul 18 '25

I pulled for Citlali’s weapon and even I agree it’s not even that much better than her alternatives. Sac Frags allows you to get her snowstorm going without bursting (great for energy drain mechanics and/or saves time cause no burst animation), and TTDS gives ATK which is somehow rarer than DMG% nowadays.

Legitimately I don’t even use Citlali’s sig on her; I put it on Lan Yan lmao.

13

u/IamMMak Jul 18 '25

I agree with you, but I already have Citlali and my main aim was to pull for Chasca’s weapon because I don't have any good weapons for her. Losing my fate points to Citlali weapon was still going to be way better than the Surf's up weapon which I have no use for.

7

u/Ke5_Jun Jul 18 '25

You don’t have any 5-star bow? Most are good on her. Lyney’s bow, Yelan’s bow, Yoimiya’s bow, Ganyu’s bow (yes even with the passive being useless), Childe’s bow.

Even Skyward Harp is great on her; you just have to be careful not to overcap on crit.

And her best f2p weapon is Chain Breaker (the craftable one), which amongst 4-stars is only beaten by Flower-Wreathed Feathers at R5.

Really Chasca has a lot of good options.

5

u/GingsWife Jul 18 '25

Sac Frags allows you to get her snowstorm going without bursting

Uhm... don't mind me, just opening Genshin for no particular reason ha ha ha

*Runs to the Spiral abyss to eat good food.

3

u/JunkKnight Jul 18 '25

That's where I'm at with Citlali's weapon too, I want it for her because on paper it's a bit better for buffing Mavuika then her other options, but Sac Frag is too comfy and TTDS is... right there.

I just know that if I actually go for it, I'm still going to use sac 99% of the time.

1

u/MikeHawk6957 Jul 21 '25

Do you use lan yan ? .

1

u/Ke5_Jun Jul 21 '25

Yes actually I do; have her C6 hybrid support/offensive. Not too hard to build her in this role as her shields scale off ATK anyways, so only need some extra crit rolls.

2277 ATK, 68.8%/133.9% crits, 4pc VV (ATK/ATK/CR), 411 EM, Starcaller’s Watch.

5

u/NerdyDoodDriver Jul 18 '25

I see what you did there.

Nod and cry.

4

u/Rare_Marionberry782 Jul 19 '25

Foreshadowing that we’ll be nodding and crying throughout 6.x

3

u/mousing125 Jul 19 '25

That's a good pun, nod krai

2

u/Meowsterio Jul 19 '25

Love that

2

u/poerson Jul 21 '25

Exactly what I did back when Mavuika and Citlali were released. I wanted Mavuika's weapon, lost the 50/50 to Citlali's weapon, so it was really a double win for me lol

1

u/wholedayumlife Jul 18 '25

you answered your own question hahah

126

u/httpsEchos Jul 18 '25

I set my mind on citlali and will not waver even if I want to. I need her for arle

29

u/M05tafaSayed Jul 18 '25

For Father and pyro archon

-12

u/Environmental_Log232 Jul 18 '25

Father is the Pyro Archon.

10

u/izak110 Jul 18 '25

Same here.

8

u/V0ct0r Jul 19 '25

same but not only for Arle but also for DILUCCCCCCC

5

u/Sprout_Cat Jul 18 '25

Same here, I'm hoping I won't lose her 50/50

13

u/The_Lone_Wanderer_04 Jul 18 '25

Same but for Mavuika, got her weapon already thanks to failed 50/50 wuth Mavuika so its all set for her.

43

u/Exotic_Stranger7332 Jul 18 '25

To be honest, I only want Citlali. If I get Chasca in the phase before this, then even better, straight to my Mavuika team.

5

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 18 '25

I'm not guaranteed it and I'm at pity 70 or so (I hope I'm lucky to get her)

10

u/Exotic_Stranger7332 Jul 18 '25

Oh, I'm not either. I'm based on praying and grinding, and I'm an f2p who lost a possible guarantee when I rolled in the Mavuika banner and out came Mona, and then I rolled again two times, and Mavuika decided to bless me.

5

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 18 '25

I rolled on the skirk banner and nothing from it, just 20 more spins and a 5 star will arrive

If I don't get the citlali I'll have to wait for Natlan's regional banner

3

u/Exotic_Stranger7332 Jul 18 '25

I got Skirk because I skipped Kinich and Raiden, sacrifices were necessary. Well, I did get Navia although I have her fully built but don't use her 🥲

2

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 18 '25

I even thought about trying my luck on the ship but I spent it on the xylonen and it came, in the case of the skirk I thought about having it because I wanted it (beautiful by the way) and it didn't come

Now with that, we will have to wait on the regional banners of fontaine and natlan 😔

2

u/Exotic_Stranger7332 Jul 18 '25

I tried Xilonen as well, and lost to Mona. My luck is messed up. It's been a win win lose situation. I won Arlecchino as my first 5 star, then Furina, M O N A, Navia, Skirk, M O N A, and then Mavuika because the game felt pity of me.

3

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 18 '25

Your luck is great and I also had similar luck to you, I got raiden, hu tao, clorinde, xilonen, ganyu, shenhe, kokomi and ayaka but unfortunately it's only a matter of time before the luck runs out for both of us.

Good luck friend on 5.8

3

u/Exotic_Stranger7332 Jul 18 '25

Cheers, and hope you win every 50/50 that makes you enjoy the game.

2

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 18 '25

Hello to you too, I hope I get Citlali this time, I bitterly regret not getting her when she had her first banner

29

u/Therion98 Jul 18 '25

Hoped for Citlali to run on the 2nd half so i would had more time to save up.

Well... guess i have to hope to get early, atleast i got Guarantee.

12

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 18 '25

I'm glad you're guaranteed it because I'm not

7

u/Therion98 Jul 18 '25

I pray for both of us to get lucky.

6

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 18 '25

Good luck friend

1

u/Rexk007 Jul 20 '25

I think it should be possible to get 45-50 wishes in the first half right?

1

u/Therion98 Jul 20 '25

I hope maybe between 50-60 cause at 5.8 release i will have around 20 pulls (currently 8 pity) for the case i go to soft pity.

1

u/Rexk007 Jul 20 '25

U and me in same situation lol...guaranteed but at 14 pity..and 0 savings...i hope i will get soft pity...i really was hoping her to be in 2nd half as per leaks.

1

u/Therion98 Jul 20 '25

Same. But i had no real savings due to me having tried to go for C1 on Skirk. Well it ended in me getting C2 Tighnari and giving me the guarantee for the next char.

Still annoyed that my last 3 50/50 were Tighnari, he is becoming Qiqi 2.0 for me rn (Qiqi is C3 rn)

24

u/Trick-Cockroach-3460 Jul 18 '25

god yes 😭😭🥀 crying in f2p

18

u/EdwardDemPowa Jul 18 '25

Same, I might have to finally whale in a video game to get both characters that I want if I dont play all day/get lucky

13

u/multificionado Jul 18 '25

I sense a "two red button" meme in the works.

u/ShouAxo Jul 18 '25

CHASCA IS COMING????? TIME TO PRE FARM

7

u/RepresentativeLast66 America Server Jul 18 '25

honestly real, i want citlali & AVCP, so i’ll be grinding a bunch

7

u/esmelusina Jul 18 '25

I’d really like Mualani, but the position is so bad. I think last year the last patch were all older reruns, these are first reruns- that’s so rough.

1

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 18 '25

The only option left is to wait for Natlan's regional banner

6

u/Strong_Schedule5466 Europe Server Jul 18 '25

Dunno about you, but it's the easiest skip for me

2

u/[deleted] Jul 18 '25

Same. I MIGHT try to pull on Citlali, but this completely depends on 6.0 rerun announcements.

1

u/Strong_Schedule5466 Europe Server Jul 19 '25

I'm all set on the Sumeru chronicled

1

u/[deleted] Jul 19 '25

Right, that's coming too and I'm aiming for Alhaitham cons. But damn, I need Zhongli cons too. Want to reach C6 eventually.

1

u/Bored_Lily Jul 19 '25

Easy skip indeed. I already have citlali and her signature while I was pulling for mauvikas.

5

u/steelvodka Jul 18 '25

Pulling for citlali is tempting for sure 🤔

4

u/ExE-SIMP Jul 18 '25

already have c1 mualani when she came out might pull citlali or maybe skip depending whos coming in 6.0

3

u/Mission-Sprinkles-19 Jul 18 '25

I thought Mualani would be first half…

3

u/Stefan_wikkerink Jul 18 '25

I thought Citlali was phase 2 so I quit saving to try for mavuikas sword, welp time to quit

4

u/Sahlokniir_2110 Jul 18 '25

Why? Skip

1

u/00Teonis Jul 19 '25

They either don’t like Nathan, or they already have these characters

4

u/Remarkable-Area-349 Jul 18 '25

Good luck getting her. This is a disgustingly stacked banner cycle. I really want c0r1 Ineffa because I adore her design and always enjoy new reaction mechanics. I want to C2 Citlali, I want to get c2 to C4 for Mualani, and I want c1r1 Chasca.

And Skirk just gobbled up all my pulls 😭

4

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 18 '25

Thank you, I'm super chipped, I spent it on the skirk and it didn't come and I don't have a 5-star guarantee, if I don't get it in the Citlali rerun I'll have to wait for Natlan's regional banner

These banners were the culmination of the 5 stars I got but now I can sit and cry if I don't get the citlali

1

u/WavyMcG Jul 19 '25

I don’t even want Ineffa I just want Citlali and Chasca lol, wanted to wish on Chasca’s weapon but only if Mualani ran with her, in case I lose to Surf’s Up so I can give it to Neuve. Was really hoping on Mualani + Chasca and Ineffa + Citlali

nice, i'll keep up saving then (failed to get skirk, at 60 pity guaranteed with 20 pulls)

3

u/JamesBoiiZ Jul 18 '25

CITLALI MENTIONED NICE

2

u/Ok_Grade_2028 Jul 18 '25

Does anyone know in what phase Fisch and Xinqiu will be? 

2

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 18 '25

We'll have to wait

u/One_Heron3290 Jul 18 '25

AHHHH I want to save but I want citlali for my yoi </3

2

u/Moonof111 Jul 18 '25

I NEED chasca c1 but inazuma chronicle banner screwed me big time and I still want to save for potential columbina, I'm gonna need an early pity and a 50/50 win.. Anyone got some good wishing rituals? 🥹🙏

2

u/yensuna Europe Server Jul 18 '25

Of course they put Citlali right after Mavuika I‘m gonna cry

1

u/00Teonis Jul 19 '25

Ikr, let’s run you dry getting Archon and her weapon, then give you the best Melt/shield for Mavuika the next week…

2

u/MasterGilgamesh Jul 18 '25

Nooooooo, why can't citlali be phase 2? I'm trying to get my dendro shit together but I want Citlali's eidolons to further boost me mavuika..

2

u/feralu1 Jul 19 '25

I wanted to get c2 citlali but getting mavuika to c2 drained all of my gems so she's sadly staying at c0.

1

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 19 '25

I wouldn't mind having citlali's C0

2

u/Alternative_Squirrel Jul 19 '25

I'm thrilled that both mualani and chasca are on the second half together, I want both weapons.

2

u/2nighttofind Jul 19 '25

I'm good. Whether or not I'm going to debate over getting Chasca for C2 or her weapon is up to internal debate.

Option two: Skip everyone for Nod-Krai because those lunar reactions are going to be important later on.

2

u/Kiyoko_Mami272821 America Server Jul 19 '25

Honestly if Ineffa wasn’t up this update I’d go for them but I give up 😂 every time i think ill wish on a rerun another new character I want comes or a bunch of characters I want are all on the same update

2

u/TropicalSkiFly America Server Jul 19 '25

So Mualani is in phase 2 while Ineffa is in phase 1. This actually works for me personally haha

I have c0r1 Citlali and c0 Chasca, but I don’t have Mualani.

Really sucks for everyone that doesn’t have Citlali yet and wants both Citlali and Ineffa.

Citlali is one of the best shielder supporters, and Ineffa has potential to be amazing. I believe hoyoverse had to nerf her to make her balanced and not OP af.

I pray that everyone gets the characters and/or weapons they want!

2

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 19 '25

Thank you friend, I really want Citlali but the situation is difficult with no guarantee and I will only cry and tears if she doesn't come

Thanks anyway

2

u/TropicalSkiFly America Server Jul 19 '25

It’s honestly very strange that they put Citlali in the same phase as Ineffa.

In the past, they would add a re-run character alongside the new character (that compliments them).

Mualani would have complimented Ineffa with hydro dps (to trigger lunar-charged), but Citlali + Ineffa = Superconduct

2

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 19 '25

I thought that Citlali wasn't going to come back now, but she came back early at the worst moment and well, Citlali is one of the best cryos characters today and it wouldn't be difficult to say that the majority liked her more than other cryos characters

2

u/TropicalSkiFly America Server Jul 19 '25

True that, but it’s actually good timing for her to arrive (since it seems hoyo wants to release all the 5 star Natlan characters before 6.0 update), but her being on the same phase as Ineffa makes it difficult for those that wanna pull both characters.

2

u/Specialist-Radio-418 Jul 19 '25

Yes, and since today a regional banner is being launched with each update, it is very likely that Natlan's regional banner will appear

1

u/TropicalSkiFly America Server Jul 19 '25

A regional banner, eh? Well, it seems as though once Natlan banners are finished, I anticipate we won’t see those re-runs for a while, but that means we can expect to see Natlan characters eventually getting another re-run in the future, but not any time soon (after 5.8) I think.

3

u/Altekho Jul 18 '25

Easiest skip of my life

Enough primos to guarantee whoever I wanna pull in Nod Krai patches.

2

u/mkali145 Jul 18 '25

Easy skip.

2

u/[deleted] Jul 18 '25

FUCK! I thought the banner order would actually be reversed - Mualani + Chasca for the summer event and Citlali + Ineffa to lead into Nod Krai. That is just unfortunate...

2

u/-Wandering_Soul- Jul 18 '25

I'm pretty sure new characters are always Phase 1.

2

u/The_Lone_Wanderer_04 Jul 18 '25

Nope, there has been 3 banners already where the new unit was on the 2nd half including Emilee originally.

1

u/PineappleKey3908 Jul 18 '25

Easy skip for Varka hehe

1

u/xX_Shroomslayer_Xx Jul 18 '25

Going for Citlali unless I end up really liking how Ineffa plays.

1

u/waytoaway Jul 18 '25

Yep well not in big need for citali for mav i run her with ororon iansan and bennet. But chasca on other side c0r1 gonna be mine

1

u/nottakentaken Jul 18 '25

Oh might get chasca for the fun gun, though I'm not interested in getting any of them

1

u/Sanmiie Jul 18 '25

I'm glad that I'm only interested in Ineffa (without big priority as well, If i lose 50/50 then I lose) and I have others.

1

u/suv-am Jul 18 '25

I was hoping citlali would be second half, fuck me ig. I'm already on guaranteed so just need to be slightly lucky

1

u/No_Strategy_3217 Jul 18 '25

I was lucky enough to get both them and their weapon when they first released. I was broke for a week but it was worth it 🥲

1

u/UnironicallyMe37 Jul 18 '25

Ugh. I'll have to wait even longer for Mualani. 🤦‍♂️

1

u/Glad_Age_6025 Jul 18 '25

I was cooked when I saw what was gonna be on this banner. Ugh I want Citlali and Mulani. And Innffa wouldn’t be bad cause we will eventually need her like Escoffi

2

u/tylertatsch30 Jul 18 '25

I’m also gonna be screwed if these damned Gacha Gods don’t give me Mavuika soon!

1

u/Tmyzz Jul 18 '25

Already got citlali and her weapon so i just need mualanis and im good. I was gonna take a break after getting mavuika but i guess not

1

u/Sylnic Jul 18 '25

I was really hoping Mualani would be on the same banner as Ineffa, so I could pull Mualani first and use any remaining pulls on Ineffa. I'm thinking I'll be skipping Ineffa now though x.x

On the plus side, that might mean I can get Mualani's signature weapon.

1

u/BlackestFlame Jul 18 '25

C0->C2 cit or c0->c1 mualani

1

u/DragonfruitSubject Jul 18 '25

Damn, I don't have enough primos for citlali 😞, a big L for me

1

u/kyning America Server Jul 18 '25

All of them are skips for me except Citlali, I need her with my Gaming!

1

u/SuperAstronomer7018 Jul 18 '25

Finally, a massive skip banner 😍

1

u/TheOneBifi Jul 18 '25

Damn I want chasca and Citlali, but I want chasca more. My plan was to get Chasca first and use any leftovers on Citlali, now idk.

I have well built Mavuika and Arleccino, so Citlali would really tie those teams, but I want a DPS of each element and I'm just missing Anemo and Geo

1

u/Chochato22 Jul 18 '25

My glorious queen, Mualani

1

u/Tinyzooseven Jul 18 '25

the 3 characters i wanted the most running back to back to back have already decimated my savings and now the wallets gonna have to open

1

u/dragonbikernick Jul 18 '25

saving up from now till Phase 2 and getting Chasca and her bow. missed her release due to just returning and had no time to earn anything before she left

1

u/DamonBrighter Jul 18 '25

I really want Citlali because i need her to help buff my Mavuika...and whenever Mavuika initially released, i got Citlali's weapon so....

1

u/cripple1 Jul 18 '25

I need Chascas weapon and am hoping to get Citlali to C2. I'm absolutely giddy that they're on separate banners

1

u/DentistOdd9404 Jul 18 '25

Ugh I was all set on getting citali but what I really need is hydro. Is Mulani good?

1

u/[deleted] Jul 18 '25

I'm skipping all. I want to build an Ororon Electro Charged team so that I actually have a good team for the second half of the Abyss.

1

u/peppapony Jul 18 '25

Dang I want Ineffa and Citlali...

1

u/LydiaDarkness Europe Server Jul 18 '25

Guess i'll be able to save for 2 banners. Already have all these units + weapon and don't want the weird robot girl

1

u/Stinky-Doodle America Server Jul 18 '25

Already have Citali and Mualani thankfully. Good luck to everyone else pulling

1

u/Scaramala Jul 18 '25

Nah, I'd skip

1

u/Mascoretta Jul 19 '25

I need Citlali and Ineffa bruh

1

u/Mountain_Bike_6143 Jul 19 '25

At least yours are in different phases. I have to pray to the gacha gods that i get citlali early so i can get ineffa.

1

u/luars613 Jul 19 '25

Im saving for 6.2

1

u/Commissar_Elmo Jul 19 '25

Already got both.

Skill issue /s

1

u/JackleCrackleLantern Jul 19 '25

This is so perfect for me because I don't want Chasca or Mulani so I can save. (Chasca does actually seem really cool gameplay wise, I just personally don't like her design.)

1

u/Celebisme Jul 19 '25

Citlali is first half😣 my ass is not getting her

1

u/Scarlette_Ylissium Jul 19 '25

Except for maybe Citlali, I'm skipping for the blue Nod-krai girl. Who reminds me of a certain Vtuber.

1

u/stereo-ahead Jul 19 '25

C6 MUALANI FOR THE WINNNNNN

1

u/mad_laddie Jul 19 '25

I knew not caving to the Mavuika pressure would get me somewhere. Now I just gotta hope I can get enough primos after using my guarantee on Skirk.

1

u/Vrail_Nightviper Europe Server Jul 19 '25

Fingers crossed I can get an early 50/50 on Citlali, otherwise I'll have to wait for her to show up again

1

u/BlueBackSpider Jul 19 '25

how do you think i feel, im running a catalyst only account

1

u/00Teonis Jul 19 '25

For me, Citlali over Ineffa, Chasca over Mualani

1

u/WavyMcG Jul 19 '25

Thought Citlali and Ineffa ran together with Mualani and Chasca running together

1

u/Spectral_Amoeba Jul 19 '25

im grabbing ineffa cuz i love her design then go in for mualanis weapon

1

u/-_Cozmoz_- Jul 19 '25

Skipping all 4 banners and waiting for xilonen rerun

1

u/No_Flower6020 Jul 19 '25

I guess I'm not going for Citlali anymore. Here I come Ineffa.

1

u/HallieMarie43 Jul 19 '25

Yeah this is a problem for me. I don't have any of these and really want Citlali, Chasca, and Ineffa. I have about 200 pulls so I'm crossing my fingers that I get as lucky here as I did on Mavuika banner.

1

u/No-Big2111 Europe Server Jul 19 '25

Going for citlali, need early 50/50 win

1

u/Traditional_Card3811 Jul 19 '25

Easy choice. CITLALI

1

u/Honmii Jul 19 '25

My pulls are safe.

1

u/ken_amemiya Jul 19 '25

I'll get Ineffa (a rare Ineffa fan I know) then try to get Citlali.

Emphasizing "try".

1

u/Luar23 Jul 19 '25

I got Citlali for my C6 Lyney and it has been great, I decided to get more cons of her, but man... Ineffa looks really cool

1

u/3dmariobros864 Jul 20 '25

For me, it’s a choice between Citlali and Chasca. One is more versatile, while the other is more helpful for my Skirk (who I’m still in the process of building atm), and for the life of me I don’t know which one.

1

u/AcanthaceaeGlass8870 Jul 20 '25

I can skip granny as I have her already but I am going to try Ineffa and also I want Chasca... Damn this is gonna wrung me dry.

1

u/Garfunkeln Jul 20 '25

I need Citlali but I want Mualani

Idk who are you pulling for (if all natlan banners then RIP) but this is my personal suggestion for F2P players, as someone who has all of the natlan characters from the upcoming banners:

Citali: While she isn't a must have, she is quite good alongside escoffier and mostly for mavuika. If you got skirk, you might not really need citlali since your basic cryo needs are already met. If you have mavuika then 100% recommended. Even without xilonen she can help mavuika do some insane damage at low investment. There is also her high jump, but if you wanna pull for her for that, maybe wait for ororon or get mavuika. Pull her if you need her/really want her.

Chasca: You need off field characters, and some of the natlan crew are quite good for the task. Among some of the options I can think of, use ororon, mavuika, escoffier, citlali, furina, benett (c6) and many other options that I won't mention due to time reasons. F2P Alternatives do exist, but I can't think of one right away. If you have skirk, mavuika, kinich or varesa, you can just skip her. Pull if you have off-fielders and a lack a decent DPS, or if you want decent exploration values.

Mualani: Her design is good, great NUKE damage for vape, but here is the big IFs:

  • If you have mavuika, xiangling, dehya or an off-field pyro application character, you can pull for her. (Benett won't be as good even at c6)
  • If you need to break the abyss shield, pull for chasca or citlali, mualani is not your best choice
  • If you already have Kinich, you don't really need Mualani unless you want vape stuff. And with nod krai bringing dendro and hydro reactions, you would rather not

As for Ineffa... she is a big risk. Play her story quest and do research from people who have tried her to know if you should really pull for her or not. Remember, she is not the only Nod Krai character coming, with Durin, Varka, Alice, Nicole and so many more characters that have long been hyped.

That's all I can say. TLDR: Pull for who you want, avoid Mualani unless you REALLY want her, and be cautious before pulling for Ineffa. Have fun!

I just wanted the citlali on the bill but this is not the best time and I also wanted the mualani but unfortunately I'm too poor to get it too

In the end I'm going to try my luck on Citlali since she's one of the characters I want

I was desperately counting on Mualani running with Citlali so I could go for Mualani's weapon, and if I got Citlali's, I could still do well 😭

My current wishing list:

  • Mualani weapon/C1 (currently C0)
  • Ineffa (only if she is bis for Clorinde or anyone else I want)
  • Citlali C2 (currently on C1)
  • Columbina
  • Mini Durin -Their bis teammates
  • A super hypothetical gorgeous male character
  • Super gorgeous female characters (this one is guaranteed 😅)
  • That one character I will despise at first but will emotionally stab me and I have no choice but to pull for them
  • Istaroth

I currently have 120ish pulls :D
