1. Do we have some calcs for F2P builds yet? I’d assume Fav is gonna be good bc it’s Fav obviously. What other weapons would be good options? And what other artifact sets will be good on her? Farming Reverie doesn’t really make sense for me bc I don’t have a single BOL character so the domain isn’t very efficient for me.

2. When Emilie’s was first posted here on Honey Hunter with her initial line up of skills and stats, I posted a comment stating that I felt that Emilie would be around high tier (A), about the same level of Yae Miko.

   With the buffs she has gotten late in the beta, I now believe she is possibly top tier (S) now.

   Emilie’s seems to be well rounded as a Sub-DPS, having excellent range, great single target damage, good AOE damage, low field time, and the lack of conditions to trigger her skills. In addition, both her Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst have great offensive potential.

   In my view, this makes Emilie comparable in power to other top tier sub DPS characters. This pertains for both 4* characters (Xiangling, Fischl and Xinqiu) and 5* characters (Yelan, Nahida, and Furina).

   I would still consider Emilie to be less powerful overall than those 6 characters I mentioned. This is due to Emilie lacking any form of supportive capabilities and that she relies on the burning reaction to reach her full potential.

   However, I think Emilie is just too strong to be merely a high tier now character now. She is now significantly better than Yae Miko, who while having comparable damage, suffers from long field times and very high energy cost burst.

   ————————————————————————————————————————————————–

   In terms of teams, at least for version 4.8 I still think her main teams will be either Pure Burn or Burn-Melt.

   Pure Burn will pair Emilie with a Pyro character(preferably a main DPS), with last two part slots being another Pyro, another Dendro, and/or a infusion capable Anemo character to swirl pyro.

   Arlecchino and Lyney will bet the best 5* Pyro characters to be on field for this team setup due their high raw Pyro damage, but I think Pure Burn with Emilie will be Klee’s new best team thanks to her very high Pyro application. The defense shred from Klee’s C2 will also be very helpful in buffing Emilie’s damage. Dehya could be a decent choice as well. While her raw damage is lacking compared to the first 3, she could work as a less fragile option.

   For 4*s, Gaming, with his high raw damage from his plunge attacks is a great option (this is what I plan on doing after getting C6 Gaming on my way to obtaining C2 Furina). Other 4* main DPS characters (like Yanfei) likely don’t have enough raw Pyro damage to be worth using on a Pure Burn Team.

   For Burn-Melt, Emilie is now clearly better than Nahida (in terms of team damage). Wriothesley could very well become the new best Cyro main DPS now with a Burn-Melt team with Emilie. Ganyu could also get a new lease of life with Burn-Melt as well. For 4*s, Chongyun is really the only Cyro character that could work as main DPS in this team, but I have my doubts on how effective it would be compared to Wriothesley and Ganyu.

   *********************************************************************************************************
   Overall, Emilie reminds me of another fashionable young lady from Fontaine: Navia. Crystalize is a garbage reaction but Navia at least make it worth using, and and I also consider her a top tier character (albeit maybe on the lower end).

   I’m really looking forward to Emilie’s release now, assuming Hoyo doesn’t do any major nerfs late in the beta period.

   • IMO she’s still A as the buffs aren’t that big (other than the self nerf removal) but she’s definitely better than before

   • agreed, but also, many times they added useful units later on
     i expect the same for her, sagewine, and whatever will come next
     they’ll take time maybe (they’re not smart, we know it) but i hardly doubt they won’t do it
     we took 3 years with xiao to give him 3 broken supports for his damage style, maybe they’ll take time to give us proper burning supports (and we’ll need for every element and every reaction to me… we got chevreyse for overload, why not a specific unit for electro charge, vape, freeze, etc? we have sara and faruzan specific for anemo, gorou for geo but defense, why not other units for the remaining elements?)
     c’mon hoyo, make your tiny brain work, this will benefit your community but even yourself, because everybody will love these units
     im joking guys, i know they’re too retard to understand it

3. So… who are y’all thinking of for Deepwood holders? Emilie wants Reverie pretty badly, so someone else is gonna have to take the hit pre-C2.

   Nahida is an obvious pick, but who else besides her and Collei? Is Kirara capable of covering enough AOE with her Skill/Burst? Are there non-dendro holders that are worth looking into?

   • thoma is decent for her support , and there are no must pick artifact for him like Zhongli with Tenacity, so you can use deepwood for him.

     tbh i’ll pair Emilie with Clorinde Thoma and Yae/Yunjin.
     I need to try it first for Yae is it enough to maintain burn with Emilie dendro apply and Thoma pyro apply + overload reaction which is apply another pyro, if not i’ll use yunjin instead.

   • zhongli , yaoyao , dehya, toma, baizu , dendro mc, shinobu, dori
     these are the one that have continuous E/Q that don’t do much dmg so you don’t lose anything.

     Other like yae, fischl Rosaria yelan, xq chiori etc they do too much dmg to use as Deepwood holder.

     there’s diona, layla, qiqi, mona, kokomi but I’m not sure if they will fit Emilie burn comps

   • I’m thinking just straight up using deepwood on Emilie. Farming Artifacts sets is my least favorite thing and I farmed the he’ll outta deepwood after I spent an eternity in Emblem Domain prior to that.

     it’s a loss of potential not having the burning set on emilie but perfectly acceptable to use deepwood as well to save time and resource I’m my humble opinion.
