1. After V3, unless surprising change, we have his almost final version.
   They nerfed his vulnerability, removed his EHR debuff, and slashed his multipliers. On the other hand he has a 15 energy on battle start and now applies DoT.

   He’s now a jack of no trade and a master of nothing. No way he has a place in a DoT team as he can’t compete with Black Swan or Kafka or Ruan Mei, and no way he can compete with Pela as a debuffer (40% def shred). The only pull value he has left is for Acheron to gain stacks, which will be useful in contents where enemies have a lot of turns, i.e. SU at high level and PF. So if you have Acheron E0 and no SW, nor DoT team, there is value in pulling for him, otherwise, you should skip.

2. LOL 😄 Instead of increasing Jiaoqiu’s 40% Debuff to 60% like it should be on a limited Legendary, they Nerfed it to 35%
   Well that helps me a lot actually, I get to choose another limited Legendary to get! 🙂
   (We shall see V4 and V5 to be sure what is the final version in the end.)
   I was thinking about Black Swan anyways, but maybe I will wait with DoT units untill HoYo gives us a Nihility or Harmony that makes all DoTs applied by the whole Team be able to Crit.

3. After V3 I think Hoyo wants me to die, personally.

5. v2.4 changes
   Skill
   – DMG on main target reduced: 180% -> 150%

   Ultimate
   – AoE DMG reduced: 200% -> 100%

   Talent
   – Leftover Energy regeneration value removed (it wasn’t working during this beta anyway)
   – Vulnerability nerfed: The first stack starts at 15% Vuln and subsequent stacks add 5% (rather than 15% + 5%*stack)
   Here’s the exact wording now: “with 1 stack increasing the initial DMG enemies receive by 15%, and each subsequent stack increasing DMG by 5%.”
   – Ashen Roast is now also a 180% DMG Fire DoT

   Trace 1
   – Changed: +15 Energy at the start of battle

   E2
   – Now adds 300% to the DoT multiplier for Ashen Roast (and so, 480% DoT)

   – – –
   Trace 3
   – minor rewording
   E6
   – text clean-up of unnecessary quotation marks

   • oh, they added the DoT in his base kit. They reduce the dmg. maybe cos some are thinking making him critdps which is weird if ever. reducing his debuffing seems fine with how hard acheron already hits with existing debuffers, especially with those with e2 acheron that uses her alongside sparkle.

     a good balancing maybe? though i want to see someone use kafka, black swan, acheron and jiaoqiu. all exclusive nihility team. hahahaha

   • Might as well drop the Sig LC change here too

     – Initial application of Unarmored state is unchanged
     – Now properly states Unarmored can’t be applied during Cornered state
     – There is now a requirement of being “under the DoT state the wearer inflicted” but that wording doesn’t specify that only the DoT can proc Cornered state. Thoughts?
     – Cornered state “FURTHER increases…” the effect. This means S1 is now worth 24% Vuln, whereas previously it is 18%.

     I believe that final change helps support my understanding that JQ’s Talent Vulnerability got nerfed. His Talent lost 5% but the LC gained 6% at S1 to make up for the difference (and this is not the first time something like this happened).

     • Nah, the light cone used to be 10% + 18%, and it is now 10% + 14%, meaning even the light cone was nerfed.

   • More or less 24 hours from now. Not sure what exact time they typically come out, but it should be morning CN time.
