1. feels like such a nothing release, not by the strength of the character itself(not that good herta and acheron will probably still be 1 and 2) but because she is just there, idk man i am thinking that if in this slot you drop a real character that does real stuff that have real impact in the story it would be pretty cool, like hoolay.
   although i understand the game itself is telling you to ignore this version because the big guys are coming very soon, so she doesnt matter at all.

3. um…what the hell happened to my girl rappa?

   in v4, rappa underwent some changes that are honestly so big one could tell you it was a v3 change and youd believe it.

   so let’s start with what i do like/am not against.

   firstly, her ult cost has now been lowered even more to 140 energy, from 150 in v3 and 160 even before that which for a transformation/enhancement ult, i dont mind.

   second, her base atk has been significantly increased, from 640 (equal to seele and serval’s) to 717 (around dhil if im not mistaken).
   to compensate, her break vuln trace has been altered; from 3% initial vuln with 12% additional vuln at 3200 atk for a maximum vuln of 15%, she now has 2% initial vuln with 8% additional vuln at 3200 atk for a maximum vuln of 10%. slight nerf, but its easier to hit which is very nice.

   now for the parts that i dont really like!

   starting with her base speed going from 102 to 98, on par with legendarily fast unit himeko. she does still have speed traces, putting her at 107 before speed boots takes that to 132 and ruan mei takes that over 134 – nice for moc, but youre not usually inclined to build too much speed for pure fiction, since her talent allows her to still deal damage outside of her tur- good LORD what the HELL is this ABOMINATION of a TALENT

   yeah, so what was once previously a really neat way for rappa to deal a very significant chunk of her damage outside of her turn has turned into what i can only describe as a break acheron-like unit who deals all her damage when taking her turn – a turn that only happens once in a blue moon due to that really freaking low speed AND requires all your teammates to be able to deal enough toughness damage to reliably break AND defeat a few enemies.

   acheron is not a unit i particularly like playing in or think is too great in pure fiction – well she works, but if your team isnt already clearing like a few trash enemies like they are in dotcheron before acheron comes in to clear the field with her ult, theres always gonna be like one or two enemies sitting there on field after your acheron ults blocking the next wave and laughing in your face as your jiaoqiu struggles to find enough damage to kill them.

   typically, for a dps-focused unit to thrive in pure fiction, they either need to take a lot of turns or they need to have a way of dealing a huge chunk of their damage outside of their turn. herta has her kurukuru, himeko has her charges, jade has her fua, argenti has extremely frequent field demolishing 90 cost ults and is typically played with any combination of huohuo, tingyun and one of the action advance units, etc.
   rappa previously had this with her talent’s additional damage and bounces upon break, but now she doesnt even have the ruan mei talent anymore, its JUST her eba

   now in pure fiction, rappa’s teams require them to not only have the toughness damage to give her charges, but ALSO have the pure damage to clear a few enemies before she acts and cleans up the wave. this *might* be achievable with the duo of hmc and lingsha in img/fire weak pf stages but i definitely wouldnt count on it.

   the other option you have for rappa teams is to run dual break dpses, which definitely can work due to rappa consuming around as many or less skill points as like jingliu or e1 firefly – but right now, this requires you to forgo a sustain and thus a lot of comfort that the average player would prefer having, though it can definitely work.

   outside of pf tho, i feel these changes are somewhat negligible and will still excel in the moc and apoc scenarios shes supposed to and struggle in the ones shes not – v4 rappa is fine there.

   apparently people were saying that the reason they changed it was because people were too stupid to see the big, yellow numbers that occurred when lingsha broke enemies and thus concluded that lingsha was the one dealing the absurd damage, not rappa, leading to less people being inclined to pull rappa than there already was – so they changed her kit to be more damage per screenshot.

   if they wanted to communicate that rappa was the one doing a big, big chunk of the damage, they couldve done so in a (purely cosmetic) follow-up attack that did the bounce toughness and break damage similarly to a 3* DU equation that would trigger at the end of an ally’s turn, but it is most certainly too late for that now.

   anyways, if 5* tingyun arrives and turns out to be the hmc-ruan mei role compression that also does enough damage to kill a few enemies and thus facilitate rappa’s nukes, a lot of my gripes with rappa’s v4 kit would be resolved, but as it stands now, i dont really like this all too much.
