1. Archer and Saber Character Introduction
Archer:
- The Hunt Path, Quantum-type character
- Consumes a lot of SP, specialized single-target DPS
- Strong against battles with 1-3 large enemies
Saber:
- The Destruction Path, Wind-type character
- Proficient in dealing with multiple enemies, AoE DPS
- Advantageous in battles with 3-5 enemies
- Ultimate-cycling DPS
2. Archer Gacha Priority and Evaluation
Gacha Evaluation: C (Lowest Tier)
- Reason: Low gacha priority as it is a free distribution character
Signature Light Cone:
- Can be obtained guaranteed after 200 pulls during the event period
- Increases Crit Rate and ATK (raw stats)
- Does not compensate for SP recovery, Sparkle is needed
Sparkle:
- Archer's true signature weapon
- Increases maximum SP, recovers SP with Ultimate
- Plan for 200 pulls considering Sparkle acquisition
Recommended for:
- Lack of Quantum-type DPS
- Fate series fans
- Sparkle owners
Strategic Advantages:
- High single-target firepower
- Quantum-type synergy
3. Saber Gacha Priority and Evaluation
Saber:
- Need to pull both the character & signature Light Cone
Using only the character:
- Not unusable
Signature Light Cone:
- Directly related to Energy Regeneration, excellent functionality
- Possesses firepower & irreplaceable performance
- Recommended to acquire the signature Light Cone as a set when pulling Saber
Characters with good synergy:
- Supporters capable of Energy Regeneration (Sunday, Huohuo)
Gacha Evaluation: A-
- Reason: Lower priority than Harmony characters as she is a DPS
Recommended for:
- Strong will to use Saber
- Able to employ Sunday, Huohuo
- Need for an Ultimate-centric Wind-type DPS
Strategic Advantages:
- Strong in high-difficulty content with Ultimate and Energy-related buff rules
4. Collaboration Gacha Precautions
Event Period: Long-term event starting from July 11th
- Can pull for the collaboration after pulling other priority characters with remaining Stellar Jades
- Create a plan considering the number of Stellar Jades acquired and the possibility of getting spooked (off-banner character)
5. Pity System and Re-run Possibility
Pity System:
- Collaboration gacha is treated separately from the regular limited character gacha
- Gacha pity stack is not shared
- Need to be prepared to pull until the end when starting the gacha until a 5-star character appears
Re-run Possibility:
- Currently undecided
- No precedent for a Honkai Impact 3rd collaboration bunny re-run
6. Final Advice
You may need a lot to pursue the best performance, but the most important thing is to enjoy the game.
If you want to use Saber and Archer, it is important to pull them regardless of priority.
