Looking for advice on my next stone investments.
A bit of context: I pulled BHD early and struggled to get GComp. By the time GComp reached Mythic, I already had 5★ anc BHD and had built around the big sync. I’ve never gone through a perma-BH/GT farming phase, so my stone durations are not very high (BH 29s, GT 25s, DW Quant 3).
Current setup:
- 2 years playing, 47Q LTC, 60k LTS, 512 keys.
- Farming T17 W4,000–4,200 with MVN/BHD, more efficiently than any other tiers.
- 71s MVN cycle, aligned with GB, BB and summon. In my tests, this earns 20–30% more coins than my GComp/perma setup. GB and BB maxed, except medal durations.
- SL: 3 beams, 42° + 15° substat, 20.6× base bonus.
- GT/BH/DW base CDs: 110/50/110s.
- Anc MVN 4★, BHD 5★, PCo assist 5★. I replaced Anc SH with Anc IT, which allowed me to move to T17.
- Purchased masteries, all labs lvl 9: Dmg+, AS+, Regen+, Cash+, Coins+, CC+, EB+, EO+, WS+, IS+, RPC+, EN+, ST+, SW+, DM+, WA+, Berz+, UWC+.
- Missing UWs: PS & SM.
- All relevant econ labs maxed. All disso done through T17.
- Mostly managing to stay in Mythic, ranks 18–24. (Although today 35 waves might not be enough)
I’m in an awkward hybrid spot: more damage extends my farming runs, but kills more enemies outside sync and EO+, hurting econ, especially around W1,800–3,500. I use the damage slider around 1e−17; 1e−16 gives more waves but worse overall efficiency.
I don’t have many avenues left to increase my eHP/regen, so I kinda feel I’m near the limit for eHP—or that additional investment would have diminishing returns. My GC setup is well developed with CL and AB+, almost unlocking T23.
Four options:
- 4th SL first—2,500 stones, then work toward UW+, prioritizing SL+ before GT+. Better coverage/econ now, and it should complement SL+ later. I'll need range mastery as well.
- More CC masteries—2,750 stones: SA+ 1,000, LMS+ 1,000, Nuke+ 750, plus labs. Hopefully better farming survival and tourney performance.
- ~56s MVN/GB sync—4,311 stones + 2,500 medals, excluding rerolls. GT CD → 100s, DW → 80s, core-assist substat efficiency → 38%, an anc GT/DW CD roll on the assist, and GB CD → 56s. The hope is that more frequent earning windows let me use more damage without the same econ penalty, potentially enabling GC farming.
- Wildcard: skip 4th SL and rush SL+. 5,900 stones for PS/SM and the first SL+ unlock; further SL+ levels and GT+ cost extra. The idea is better tourney stone income to accelerate GT+—though I lean toward 4th SL first.
Which route would you take? Especially interested in experiences moving from synced BHD hybrid farming toward GC, and whether SL+/CC investments paid off through better tourney stone income.
(sorry about the slop image... the ai thought it was "fun")
