Rejoice, fellow Admins! The much awaited version 2.0 of Aether Gazer (aka Project MIMIR) had finally reached on global.
The v2.0 is kinda special because it presents a new gen-zone, Tian Yuan. It's not a hard guess what to expect from this faction: Chinese-based modifiers. A new powerhouse that will eclipse Hades in terms of DPS - Jinwu. And also a new powerhouse that will stand toe-to-toe with the most broken support of all, Hera - Lingguang. Both of these new Tian Yuan modifiers are T0! (as of this writing)
Last but not the least, i would just like to remind our Hades' simps out there that her skin is not on USD tag price. It cost 2k Shifting Flowers (so like in Genshin Impact).
Q: Is Lingguang a must summon?
A: ABSOLUTELY! She's a broken support like Hera. Lingguang is not a replacement for Hera. Rather, having another team with a broken support.
Q: Since Jingwu is free, do i need another copy of her?
A: Jingwu is a regular/standard modifier just like Asura, Poseidon, Tsukuyomi. If you have enough regular scan tickets to pity her, why not?
Note: Jingwu can be obtained via the event "Crepuscular Cloudsong". There is like a task that you need to complete.
Q: How about their respective signature functor?
A: Look it like this - if Hera's functor is rated S in terms of dependency/necessity, Lingguang is A & Jingwu is B. You can safely say Jinwu doesn't need her functor at all. I would say go for Lingguang's signature functor if you have excess Shifting Stars.
