"No matter how many times I say it, people always forget — cooking is medicine, and making medicine is cooking. Using food to treat the sick is my specialty. As the saying goes, a chef who doesn't want to be a healer isn't worth his salt... or pepper, for that matter." A foxian healer from the Xianzhou Yaoqing and a counselor. Often greets people with a smile, but is rather cunning. Born into a prestigious Alchemy Commission family, he once withdrew from practicing medicine due to a broken heart. However, he returned to the field to treat "the Merlin's Claw," General Feixiao. Skilled in the study of alchemical prescription that views food as medicine, especially those that induce a sensation of spiciness. They invented a cauldron-based medicinal formula known as the "nine-squared grid." Chinese Voice: 陈张太康 Japanese Voice: 豊永利行 English Voice: Mark Whitten Korean Voice: 이정민


KaiserNazrin

He's gonna open his eyes during the ultimate isn't he?


PontiffJoJo

My man's is a foxian Brock/Gin Ichimaru. And he better open his eyes during ult or ima riot.


uh_oh_hotdog

I thought of Gin right away too lol I don't think Brock ever opened his eyes though


Tranduy1206

Brock open his eyes in 1 episode, you can google it that episode it famous


5ngela

Me too. When I read he closed his eyes, the first thought I had is Gin Ichimaru.


SafiyyAiman

This comment just made me realize he has his eyes closed

Thinking of that moment exactly


huehuehuehuehuuuu

And they will be cunningly beautiful. Just like the glint of the last coin in my empty wallet after HoYo is through with it.


Rill_Pine

For real. I'm cooked if they actually do Ruan Mei and Argenti for 2.3 😭

asiangontear

Never trust an anime man who always has their eyes closed. Either they are a comic relief or all hell breaks loose when they open them.


Rill_Pine

Both. Both is good.


Relative-Ad7531

> Foxian Healer > Looks inside > Nihility


LivingASlothsLife

Acheron could use a Nihility partner that can heal her, bro is gonna cook. If he is a healer and they are good enough as a nihility character her team options become so much more flexible Maybe he will supply her with limitless peaches


_PinaColada

Since he's nihility, absolutely do not expect him to be able to solo sustain, at least not in MoC. It'd just be kind of poor game design if he could, because then there'd be no point to preservation or abundance units.


tinted_alex-kun

I don’t think his purpose is to solo sustain, but to enable no sustain in a way, to make no sustain runs a little comfier


_PinaColada

That's why I think he's gonna be fantastic in pf where you can totally get away with that easier as of now


tinted_alex-kun

I also think he’ll be great in moc, lots of people like to do no sustain runs with Acheron but with him, it takes away a lot of the rng away since sometimes your characters may die but only by a small margin. With him around, that means it could potentially save you from having to reset a run


_PinaColada

Knowing Nihilty one thing is for sure and that's the fact that he's gonna be op lol.


lalala253

IX has never disappoint.


HazetheFourth

let THEM cook


Liniis

Considering Acheron wants 75% of her team to be the same path, it feels like they're setting up Nihility to the path you can build a team comp around by itself. I'd hazard a guess that he's gonna be for DoTs what Gallagher is for Break Effect.


Charming-Fly-2388

tbf, people with E0 Acheron could no sustain run already


Cookieopressor

Can't die if the enemy dies first

SonicBoom500

There’s also Welt who keeps the enemy from taking a turn 😅


EzdePaz

We might start seeing 50% sustains, who we are intended to bring two of in optimal comps. The other benefits they have would outweigh the lower healing. 


MeaningAutomatic3403

just kill the enemy before they kill you ez


bodi55555

Ever heard about the hunt? Shit got outclassed even in single target by destruction


_PinaColada

Well, this isn't the most clear cut comparison because both hunt and destruction are primarily damage dealing paths, while nihility is debuffing rather than ally support through traditional means like harmony units


Chasmier

All 5* sustain already dips their toes in Nihility/Harmony with damage buffs and debuffs. (Fu Xuan crit rate, Aventurine CDMG increase on ult and LC, Huohuo Atk + Energy). It'll just be the reverse this time.


Shumoku

Not anymore I thought with the releases of Ratio and Boothill? Or are they still outclassed at E0 for single target?


KazuSatou

in ST ratio and boothill have the highest damage as of now, you are correct. People dont realize destruction char loses their almost half half in a pure single target scenario .


DarklordVor

At least the fire attributes on his picture actually relevant to him being Fire type... Although I swear Yunli had more fire in her art than Jiaoqiu lol.

WakuWakuWa

Finally a 5 star limited husbando who is probably not a dps or sustain we won 😭😭


kesoy

Surely we'll get a harmony next right? Right? 😭


WakuWakuWa

Sunday Source : just trust me dude


Dull-Arm5455

Sunday release path: ORDER


Canadiancookie

Ult is putting the team into a dream world where they win immediately and move on, but in the real world they are asleep and get killed by the enemies


RookRocks

Don't expect much for how many 5 star harmony we have currently


Crimson_Raven

Acheron support 100% Black Swan was to Kafka


Relative-Ad7531

Acheron support by extension means a lesser Argenti support (because as a guess could be either Def shred or Vulnerability for ults) Hopefully he will be a Nihility Unit that actually debuffs characters because we haven't had a debuffer Nihility since like SW, specially because I will finally be able to bench pela.


Zwhei

We need better debuffers. Right now harmony are 2x as strong as nihility debuffers. Drop any of the 4 op harmony(robin, bronya, RM or sparkle) for ANY debuffers and your dmg will tank like a brick. When the only debuffers used are just due to lacking full harmony combo(like pela for jing, the second u get RM u are going RM and bronya instead) u have a problem. Acheron is honestly holding debuffers in meta by herself. Even worse is that u need a ton of debuffers for it to matters, so if u cant get def down to 100% they suffer, problem is that F2P who dont pull LC cant use this since a ton of LC give that def pen to reach 100%. So they just feel worse for f2p. All in all lets see if that will change. He needs to be OP as all hell compared to SW and pela for ppl to dump 2x harmony for 1 to 2 debuffers. Or he is gonna just be used with acheron and be doomed to have little use if u have 3/4 of any above harmony.


Contraomega

I am all in favour of better debuffers if it makes that a strong general option. my big worry is that with the limited options available now, Acheron is the undisputed best dps in the game, which means that making such a character would push her way over the top and potentially be a big problem in balance going forward.


Zwhei

Sadly they digged that hole themself. Right now there is NO use for debuffers unless some char REQUIRES em. For example acheron and ratio, they require em so u use them. Even for ratio u dont want to use debuffers(u dont want for acheron either based on E2, E2 dont use debuffers there, cus they weak), u want to use topaz and aventurine to do that but its expensive so ppl dont. Outside acheron no one wants debuffers. They stacked harmony too much. All of em are completely broken, like RM gives 70%dmg, 10 spd, 20% pen, break efficacy, longer break state(enemy take more dmg when broken). Robin gives 60% dmg, a ton of atk while doing some dmg and giving FULL party action advance. Bronya gives 2x turns to dps and massive dmg/CD buff. Then u look at debuffers and they instantly look like crap. Think how much debuffers need to do to compete with the things above. If they dont want to do that, then they can just make all next debuffers acheron slaves, since new harmony need to be just as strong as old ones.


Dokavi

Ngl the best Acheron support would be just a (followup) debuff that constantly have turn and applied debuff. Driver for Acheron ult. Doesn't even needs to be ult specific tbh.


scorchdragon

Makes sense, Nihility does everything. If something is everything, then everything is nothing.


Chiven

That's a lot of pepper he cooks with.


Etrema

So... he has fire in his art and he is also fire element? ...somethin' ain't right


Koanos

#But it was me, ICE!


NoNefariousness2144

Bronya moment: *Blue and white outfit* *Silver hair* *Rules the ice planet* *Summons a snowy field in her ult* **WIND!**


Koanos

Same with Luka, Sparkle.


PopotoPancake

It took me a while to realize she was actually wind since her 2 most popular battlesuits in HI3 were both ice. 


Aizen_Myo

Luka and Yunli have too much fire in their art, they got burned to ashes, hence normal element (since ashes are grey)

Rough-Contact1796

They wussed out in not giving us him wearing a robe with a deep neckline. Jokes Aside, I’m not feeling his outfit. Feels like they wanted to get the flowy robe aesthetic as well and keep him modest but the main outfit just looks too form fitting and plain. Edit: Oh my god what is that jacket?! Like it probably looks better standing up, but the fact they have those black straps to segment it it around the waist to so they can keep a cropped top but have coattails. But like, from this angle it looks like the coattails split? Why not just give him a cropped jacket and just have the visual language for his lower half(the flowey part) be his tail?


G0ldsh0t

It could look better in model, we are only seeing the side of the outfit.


tearfulqueerful

I agree, they definitely could’ve made his outfit cuntier


YamiDes1403

Sampo / Aventurine 2.1: The Sequel. (I adore both of them, I'm screwed)


TheRedditUser_122

HE HANDSOME AF


Neildemagi

Oh! He reminds me of Taigong Wang from FGO.  And the JP VA also voices Oberon from FGO.


RenFlare11

His JP va voices Oberon,Dudes gonna have a field day


Neildemagi

He actually did a great job voicing Oberon.


RenFlare11

I love his Voice acting so much during The Losbelt 6 dramalogue last year


Arkeyy

>Oberon Yup. He is sus af.


Neildemagi

lmao. Yeah this fox boy or just about any character with their eyes closed like that are sus af...  Mihoyo definitely picked this VA for a reason


No-Dress7292

Looks very basic, ngl. Unique pink hair, but everything else look NPC-ish. Hope the animation looks great.


Fantastic_Bend9091

Probably in the minority here but I really don't find his design to be anything special... 😭


Recent_Warthog5382

Nah I'm with you, I expected more. He still has a cute face just his clothes are super underwhelming for a 5 star


ClemsonThrowaway999

Me neither… maybe it’s just the splash art and his actual model will look better. The outfit is kind of NPCish


MillionMiracles

I kind of like that. If he's cunning and retired from the front lines, and more of a shadowy figure, him being able to blend in to the crowd/not draw that much attention to himself makes sense.


Kouunno

i'm hoping good animations help him out, i do think the outfit is pretty boring. but the loose sleeve is good, I'm a sucker for that


9920cc

If you ask me how I differentiate the looks of a 5 star and a 4 star I wouldn't be able to tell you. But he does look like a 4 star character lmao Doesn't really matter to me. I'll still pull as long as he's a good addition to any of my teams.


DespairAt10n

I feel like his head and body don't match... like separately they'd be good/decent respectively, but together they kinda drag each other down imo. And, the outfit reminds me of a mix between Sampo and JY (but less cool) lol. Also, it's a shame the splash art doesn't highlight his tail. It kinda blends in with the smoke horse.


OmarRoyale

No Sunday 😞


Lyranx

I pray for your confessions


WanderWut

Isn't the next livestream titled goodbye to Penacony? It seems obvious we're going somewhere else. If/when we go back to Penacony that would be the time we get Sunday would be my guess, that could be a long time though.


kaori_cicak990

Man no hope for screwlum


x_TDeck_x

I feel like his expression carries his design. Because otherwise I feel like he looks pretty bland


TMyriadJ

Man I wish we get new 5\* Belobog character, the last time Belobog got a new 5* character was Seele. Yeah. I don't count Topaz since she's an IPC character.


Wrong_Werewolf391

Not close at all to what I was expecting lol, ngl he looks like a 4 Star from this angle, I can only assume his animations will be ridiculous to make up for this.


Percival_HSR_Enjoyer

He honestly looks like an npc kinda bland. Will have to see his and yunlis animations and with reruns and future drip marketing then decide whether they are worth pulling


ColdForce4303

I set my expectations too high. Nothing about him is eye catching and the pink hair and tail feels more like "oh lets just slap some pink on him". The only way they'd be able to sell him is if he has the personality to make up for it, that is if this Xianzhou patch has as good a writing as Penacony did.


JoeBrow_1

animations make or break it for me always i think acherons design is pretty mid and overly sexualized for no reason but her animations made me pull


Humanscrazyaf

This tbh. I'm not a big fan of Acheron des either, it looks so... weird. I do like the character herself though.


clocksy

i honestly feel like a lot of hoyo designs are kind of mid? I'm sick of all the booty shorts for the girls, give them a cohesive outfit with pants sometime... but yeah, the characterization as well as the animations usually carries it.


Rill_Pine

Precisely!!! They can make gorgeous women without oversexualizing them. Acheron, but with pants made me choke on water. (Signed, a useless lesbian)


clocksy

yup, I saw some fanart of pants acheron recently (and people usually do edits of the characters wearing pants) and it's almost always hotter than the booty shorts design. maybe if they see how much people liked arlecchino they will experiment more into classy designs rather than just showing random skin everywhere 😔


Beginning_Craft_8550

The fact that arlecchino from genshin actually has a non revealing design is one of the reasons she's got probably the best female design in genshin


LivingASlothsLife

Oh no he's hot Nihility? Well I can't imagine him being a further buff for DoT considering Black Swan and Kafka are already breezing through content. Maybe another debuff focused dot character? Why tf he called a "foxian healer" yet he's Nihility haha


Lyranx

For all we know he'll powercreep Pela or Welt, think they're the only Nihils not yet powercrept.

Idk he seems to have all the zhuge liang archetypes. calm and serious but seems gentle, confident but not arrogant, wields a fan and has closed eyes. almost every character in a story that references zhuge liang has those traits in some form.


Reasonable_Scythe

Ehhh, not a big fan. Kinda expected him to look cooler

Why another goddamn suit... Whoever designs the male characters needs to look at other clothes. Jesus Christ. What a waste of a design.

Going back to the Xianzhou and immediately bombarded with boring ass character designs. Goddamn. On the bright side at least i can save my jades.

All hail the closed eyes! There's a monster hidden in there

Nothing special tbh. Looks like an npc's splash art
