I'm not on board with gg killing anybody, ceobe is currently (VERY ARGUABLY) a niche unit against high def and gg does nothing to encroach on that niche fwiw, I quite explicitly address that I do not agree with the thumbnail question but it's presented as the focal topic so w/e
@@Drails yeah, sorry, I wrote my comment before finishing the entire video, hence why I deleted a big chunk of my comment that I had written since you had already addressed it. As usual, a really good analysis video. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the indepth info regarding GG. The two segments I found most fascinating was the Drone RNG% chance of explosion and the fact after a drone explodes, it will retain it's ATK parameter if it retargets the same target. I really dislike the RNG% Explosion chance because it really changes how I view GG's potential and I feel the stated 10% is now misinterpreted even if the math is technically correct - but I understand it was also done like that for the sake of ease to digest her kit. To me it's also weird to see GG compared to Eyjafjalla since I would figure they both serve different niches in your roster. Arknights has always been a game about using the right tool for the right job and some operators are just more optimal than others and vice versa depending on the content they are participating in. Nothing has changed with that. I also never really thought of just how potent that S1 is until it was stated in this video, so thanks for that enlightening experience too. Good work for the video 👍
The idea that every operator has a niche, while true, is also somewhat misleading for anyone who isn't a whale. It costs a lot of resources to build these 6* units. Unless you're buying OP, you probably can't afford to build a Schwarz and a Ro3emka. An Eyja and GG and Carnelian to fill similar-but-not-quite "niche" roles. Blaze and Gavial2. Specialization is often ideal, but limited resources also necessitate finding ops that fill the generalist role best. Thus far, that has unquestionably been Eyja. So the real question is... can GG oust her as the all-purpose go-to caster? The one you should level up first? If the defense of Eyja not being "killed" in this context is that she has a valid niche.... uuhhhh... that kinda confirms that GG might actually be an "Eyja killer." It certainly represents a fall from grace for Eyja. Drails hints at this himself by pointing out that GG has become the preferred caster for blind runs or days you just want to complete content and move on. Lowkey you guys do seem to be saying Eyja is outclassed everywhere except the helidrop burst role; which would flip her dominance from the beginning of Arknights on its head. Up to now, Eyja is the de facto premiere caster. If you're going to build one caster, right now, it's Eyja. Later on, you can consider adding Ceobe, Passenger, Carnelian (and eventually when we get the module -- Mostima). It sounds like, in the future, that is perhaps not the case. And Eyja joins the ranks of the niche casters.
@@niallk9336 While I do agree that not everyone is a whale, I think you are also making an incorrect assumption that every player who isn't a whale also has access to every single 6* operator to potentially build. To quote you, unless you are buying OP, you are unlikely to have every single 6* in the game. As such, a new player will most likely only have either GG or Eyjafjalla and not both at the same time. If both can work well in general content, you build whichever operator is available to you at the time. If you do happen to luck into both, which is also a possibility, then you build the one operator who's high end niche you appreciate more and then move resources on to other operators to fill the gaps of your roster. With the above being said, yes, selector tickets exist but those only occur every so often and I'm sure players will have the sense to know not to overlap operator roles when buying that ticket to flesh out their roster. Also, that's part of the joy of AK - finding a solution to a problem within your limited roster selection. To me, GG doesn't kill Eyjafjalla - she just does things differently and you have to work around that difference to clear the current content.
@@SuzakuBlitz, not sure I totally agree with you. Yes, new players will often have your issue, one or the other. But I’m not a whale, and yet I have 20+ lvl90 6*’s, plus 5/4*’s. I’ve also E2’d every single 6* owned save one, cause I don’t like the last one. Lol Do I have all champs? Not quite. Probably 5-10 of the newer ones, starting with Kal-tsit. (Argh! Lol) There are a lot of players who have simply been playing for a while, and thus have a lot of selection and options, so seeing reviews like this are helpful.
i don't think eyja will be losing relevance due to goldenglow, or in general for a good while at least but i do feel like eyja has been on a slow downward trend ever since the release of surtr. the use cases for eyja over surtr is usually just killing a large target count in situations where surtr's range wouldnt work out (which isn't that common considering that most maps have choke points), or when surtr is already in the squad to fill some other purpose.
I love your analysis at the end that clarifies she just does a different thing than Eyjafjalla. One is pseudo-AoE, the other leans hard on being ST. Both can exist in the world as solid situational choices.
Nice and informative. It's been a year since, how has your perspective changed regarding eyja vs gg? Specially when eyja already has 10 res ignore with module? I personally found no issue debating their usages since i just use both XD eyja has caster support (but not much). When going in maps blind GG should be a better pick on paper as she could also work as a panic button, but i find myself bringing eyja more often due to being more comfortable with it, either as laneholder S2 or burst with S3
At this rate, Ceobe needs to be fixed by giving her a Module, lots of Ops has gotten overshadowed & screwed up by newer Ops, hopefully HG do something, they kinda fixed some ops here & there which makes me hopeful Also 3-2 stars ops desperately needs an upgrade, i know that alters exist, but i deeply want to see more use to them
One other thing that really hurts her for no compelling reason is that the caster relics in IS2 specify arts damage increases. I know that they probably did it in order to prevent Tomimi with dance shoes from being broken (heaven forbid she get something she's great at) but it still hurts one of Ceobe's few niches.
Thanks for your explanation, my assumption on how her skills/drones work was way off, for some reason I tought her drones would not retarget inside a skill duration, basically ending the skill prematurely for the respective drone upon explosion. One thing I wonder about for comparsions, tough: wouldn't she benefit a lot more from flat atk buffs (Skalter) than others, since her drones would akt like multi-hit skills? Spinning the idea a bit further, I wonder how a Buff-Army GG S3 would look like, as the negative of targeting trash mobs first would be less important if they get one shot.
She would, yes - low base ATK is theoretically very strong when buffing with flat Skalter, but the thing is I don't have Skalter so I forgot she existed...
Nice analysis video. Thanks to it, I learn a lot more about GG. Will definitely, pull her when she comes to global. Honestly, I will just try to use both of both as much as I can.
When you mentioned high end usage I thought you meant high risk cc or some sort. Eyja’s high arts helidrop should make her better in this case as she has been used in many high risk contingency contracts. I don’t know how well goldenglow will do, but her archetype might not seem fitting.
I was a lot more on the fence about her until I saw the Spark for Dream OST. Hearing that after reading her backstory got me wondering how many pots I can afford instead of whether I should roll for her.
Regardless of what the result it. I'm pulling for her and she's coming home one way or another. And she will be sitting up there with Angelina with E2 90 M9
Im a relatively new Player and I just pulled her yesterday in the current Banner. Its good to hear that she's a strong unit and thanks for to great Video on how to best use her.
Her being an Eyjah Killer became true ony my case. She is not my waifu and pulled for her purely because I just want to pull and when I actually started using her She completely replaced Eyjah from my Team. That is when I realize that she is not a situational operator because she is crazy good in any kind of situation.
strongest nonling unit since chalt, similar dps on s3 except in a very different range range isn't as big as a concern as most people would expect, the majority of maps do allow her optimal placements
not sure the exact meaning of "scaling across different content", but in theory she's a great CC unit, is very easy to use to a significant extent in general content, and in her aspirational niches (lowstep, defenderknights) she's the #1 (or closely #2 to mud) unit; even for is2 where one normally wouldn't expect a fortress to shine, she's still great at
Regarding boss killing on s3; I most if the time a matter of timing (is2 and some Story stages) ... If it doesn't work just use toddifons s1 for a marker and gg chan does the rest (since heavy weight snipers target the boss automatically due to bosses having the biggest weight in most stages)
now i would get her just for the global range which makes my is#2 pickle become a gurkin however i currently have about 20 other opps that i want to build in preparations, 2 of them being horn and fiammetta so i dont think i will go for this. might do the 10 pull for querces though
I'm all in for the IS2 memes. And as far as IS2 is concerned, Godsenger and GG are Eyja killers. I'm sure I'll still be leaning hard into Eyja, my first meta unit, in CC and new Chapters. But I got a whole army of meta ops for those stages. It's time for the golden age of Integrated Strategies.
I watched this review, thought that I'm too broke to actually get Goldenglow, but decided to pull in hopes to get Quercus off 10pull 5* pity Got Goldenglow on 2nd pull, but still can't get Quercus
That's like asking "according to EN, what are the 12 best units" - which faucet of CN are you referring to, and if you mean in a general context, it's impossible to give a satisfactory answer given everyone has varying opinions.
Okay, so: - Flags + Bag in general - Thorns & friends (Mountain, Mud, maybe Blaze) - Burst, specifically NTRK, Surtr, SA - One of Exu/Ash - Summer Chen
Can you please talk about ebenholz next. Some people said that he's balanced and actually good while others say that he's worse than pre buff passenger.
my next videos of this style are fiam horn irene spalter in that order, given release sched. and surrounding hype eben is contending to be in the second worst 6* tier (think chen, nian, siege) in current cn tbh, he has decent boss dps, sure, but it doesn't feel good to use and he's incredibly clunky when it comes towards regular enemies which although might not seem like a big downside at first, in practice really puts most people off from using him honestly I think his best current application is s2 in is2/3 LOL
Why not use both there this is a gacha so i expect some people using OP that are the same trait i use specter and blaze together dunno why people think like new OP kill older op just use what u want
because you only have 12 slots? like, I'm clear I disagree with the thumbnail proposition, but I can see why in a more extreme hypothetical that such can be true (i.e. pozy vs schwarz)
can't kill what is already dead /s but yes, while ceobe is the more logical comparison, most of the community is instead hyping her up to eyja so basing the topic around that seemed to appeal to more people; and well, many ppl do (wrongly) think ceobe is worthless nowadays, so there's that
Tbh, none of the skill in Arknights can truly be categorized as "bosskilling". Also, i feel like you focused on Eyja's weakness too much like her lack of res ignore (she has arts reduction in her S2 that may not help her that much but certainly help other operators) while ignoring the fact that GG still needs a bit of time to reach her max DPS potential. GG is still great tho, highly recommend it if you still don't have good 6* casters. Also also, does the enemy's art resistance apply to both her and her drones?
Absolutes don't exist, skills/units can only be bosskillers to a certain degree and it's up to oneself to draw their own line for what they could consider it to be, to which I quantify Schwarz and friends to be more 'bosskiller' than Eyjafjalla in this case, which I don't think is a hard claim to defend. In that vein, I tried to provide a comparison of Eyja S3 in the most common ground they share, because simply saying "they do different things and thus cannot be compared" is a very unhelpful statement, imo, whilst also acknowledging they have strengths that lie elsewhere besides said common factor. Eyja S2 RES ignore is heavy copium imo, at that point she's significantly weaker than S3 and you might as well use Ifrit or Phys damage, especially given how minuscule it is versus bosses outside of incredibly niche scenarios. If we look at the 6* burst arts units, the RES debuff is frequently brought along for Eyja specifically, given that Surtr and Ifrit can both deal with them to a certain extent as standalone units. I explicitly stated GG retargeting is a big non-selling point for her, given that ramp resets on regular enemies can be annoying when trying to target bosses, along with that consideration in the later part of the video when detailing the merits weighed against Eyja S3, so.... And yes, RES applies to both her and drones (and all sources of arts damage), and so does her RES ignore.
She's now better than Eyja in my opinion. No, she is not a replacement for Eyja, but Eyja is no longer a sure bet when attempting a new stage, whereas Goldenglow is.
I just got a Goldenglow in IS#2 (big sad lock ending).. I think she is even stronger than Godsenger lolz (I only have aspd relic in that run.. 120 aspd).. holy mackerel powerful top tier! fast skill cycle+global range+ultra powerful damage (when the thingy explodes, aoe dmg is insane).. I will pull for her.. Fiammetta will have to rely on luck lolz.. ADD: btw man.. its not cool to spoil boss stages for future EN events.. should have put spoiler tag.. sad
@@Drails because they do different things, like lime and lemon, where both are sour citrus but used for different dishes. St deals high damage to less target, while aoe deals less for more target
so would you say it's impossible to compare lemon and lime because they do different things? then, if overall, someone asks for which they should buy at the store - would you tell them to get both, neither, or something else?
@@Drails depends on what you need. You want guacamole, get the lime. you want lemonade, get the lemons. Want both, then get both. It all depends in the niche you need
so what if you want to make a general recommendation to someone who has no idea what they need? the endgoal of both units is to help you clear a stage, so in this context they aren't competing in a niche much
She is the best DPS unit we got at E0
Absolute Madlad
roll pot4 or bust bro
we need for cc8
Not Kroos? ah sheeet....
@@IronCobraTD ah sh*t, CC8 looks to painful for me (NL - S flashback)
Calling it an Eyja killer feels incredibly farfetched. Global range is fricking amazing though.
I don't know why this is a comparison because Eyja is an aoe caster. Her class is just a typo HG didn't fix.
nah that is flat out copium, the majority of eyja's power comes from s3 and that is definitively not an aoe caster skill
@@Drails what's more reasonable to say is that Goldenglow is very much a Ceobe killer.

GG is still great tho, highly recommend it if you still don't have good 6* casters. Also also, does the enemy's art resistance apply to both her and her drones?
Absolutes don't exist, skills/units can only be bosskillers to a certain degree and it's up to oneself to draw their own line for what they could consider it to be, to which I quantify Schwarz and friends to be more 'bosskiller' than Eyjafjalla in this case, which I don't think is a hard claim to defend.
In that vein, I tried to provide a comparison of Eyja S3 in the most common ground they share, because simply saying "they do different things and thus cannot be compared" is a very unhelpful statement, imo, whilst also acknowledging they have strengths that lie elsewhere besides said common factor.
Eyja S2 RES ignore is heavy copium imo, at that point she's significantly weaker than S3 and you might as well use Ifrit or Phys damage, especially given how minuscule it is versus bosses outside of incredibly niche scenarios. If we look at the 6* burst arts units, the RES debuff is frequently brought along for Eyja specifically, given that Surtr and Ifrit can both deal with them to a certain extent as standalone units.
I explicitly stated GG retargeting is a big non-selling point for her, given that ramp resets on regular enemies can be annoying when trying to target bosses, along with that consideration in the later part of the video when detailing the merits weighed against Eyja S3, so....
And yes, RES applies to both her and drones (and all sources of arts damage), and so does her RES ignore.
@@Drails oohh, ok. S2 res reduction being copium is true now that you said it like that lol
Problem is, hardly use casters these days:( I will probs save for horn.
Like Eya and GG, in general content extremely good but where she truly shine is CC9, SSS and IS.
gg cc9 is slightly overstated imo, but yeah great in is2+ and sss
Skipped Ling for her i am so ready
Global Range is underrated.
Honestly, i just use eyja as a semi aoe caster
GG might write off Ceobe but waifu over meta so I'mma stick with my hungry doggo
I don't care what you think about because I want to pull for her anyway
Nice review, and thanks for your content
How good is goldenglow? Bruh, until your drones do explodes
If i can't get Lee rn, i would just go for GG. Cause her brother is waiting her for long :(
did you get him?
@@siesta7520 no i didn't instead getting Ling's dupe,Aak Pot and Rosa Pot. So i had to stop my pulling :(
@@RukaTatsuka oof

She's now better than Eyja in my opinion. No, she is not a replacement for Eyja, but Eyja is no longer a sure bet when attempting a new stage, whereas Goldenglow is.
I need gg because ambriel need her art dps counterpart.
I don't care what the community thinks. I want her, therefore I will get.
only if the gacha gods decree it so
@@Drails Nah fam, I saved 500 pulls between Ling to Spalter. I got the pulls down.
I just got a Goldenglow in IS#2 (big sad lock ending).. I think she is even stronger than Godsenger lolz (I only have aspd relic in that run.. 120 aspd).. holy mackerel powerful top tier! fast skill cycle+global range+ultra powerful damage (when the thingy explodes, aoe dmg is insane).. I will pull for her.. Fiammetta will have to rely on luck lolz.. ADD: btw man.. its not cool to spoil boss stages for future EN events.. should have put spoiler tag.. sad
GG cannot be Eyja killer... Godsenger already took that place.
ebenholz powercreeps her
i powercreep your mom
ceobe or goldenglow
prefer gg
Like comparing cats to dogs. Prob all preference. Get decent enough relics and both will excel.
@@BobDaManiac And why is it unfair to compare both? Cats and dogs are not the same. But Gg and Ceobe are *true single target sorceresses* !
pink dog
cat *
don't make Namie-san angry
As you said, she may out dps eyja but she's more of a single target dps while eyja is for aoe so it's funny how people try to compare the two
why can one not compare st and aoe again?
@@Drails because they do different things, like lime and lemon, where both are sour citrus but used for different dishes. St deals high damage to less target, while aoe deals less for more target
so would you say it's impossible to compare lemon and lime because they do different things? then, if overall, someone asks for which they should buy at the store - would you tell them to get both, neither, or something else?
@@Drails depends on what you need. You want guacamole, get the lime. you want lemonade, get the lemons. Want both, then get both. It all depends in the niche you need
so what if you want to make a general recommendation to someone who has no idea what they need? the endgoal of both units is to help you clear a stage, so in this context they aren't competing in a niche much
hi
first?
hi
second?
Them pulling for golden cause of skills
Me pulling goldenglow because she is voice by sakura ayane
