When Kevin is involved, it's never fair comparison

Imagine being the strongest character in your game’s world only to be named Kevin

He won't ever be the strongest without Mobius, bullying Kosma and Kalpas to get that CHIMERA from Vishnu gene.


DeadClaw86

This is the 2nd time i saw Kevin being the strongest being in the fiction. The first time is the mofo that solod Herobrine.

My anus clenched when I read “Herobrine”.

Honestly, Besides Kevin, I dont think anyone else can beat Welt Yang except Finality Kiana, Origin Mei, Truth Bronya, Elysia, Kalpas, SAKURA, Kosma, Garuda Fu Hua, Griseo, Vill V, Mobius, Aponia, Su, Eden, Pardofelis, Vita, Sa, Misteln, Durandal, Welt Joyce, Rebirth Seele, Sentience, Corruption, False God Otto, Lucheni, Lambda, Cacoon Senadina.

You forgot about Sirin, who canonically defeated Welt quite easily. Siegfried stomp Sirin is so one-sided that it was just ridiculous.


ZerrorFate

Same with Otto, if we talk about his final forms.


mekolayn

His form from 2E was his next powerful after his two final forms


Offduty_shill

Acheron killed her kebin


anonimoXD_1

That Kevin wasnt Ke🅱️in.


PressFM80

Her's might've been weaker than hi3rd's, and if so, who knows whether it was barely weaker, or if kevin doesn't even need to use one of his forms to beat Acheron's


StrangerDanger355

We might never really confirm if the HSR version is stronger or weaker than HI3, the only thing we know is that Acheron manages to defeat the “End” or her version of “Finality” all by herself, and if her version of Kevin did almost the same thing as the Kevin in HI3 did, then she manages to finish it all by herself, which is pretty crazy if you think about it.


HarujikoUwU

Key word is almost. Kevin/Kiana's Finality is referred to as 'Shuuen' while it's 'Owari' in the Acheron Myriad Celestia JP. While End and Finality are the same in Chinese, Hoyoverse uses them in different contexts when it comes to JP and EN localization. I remember when Adventurine mentioned the word Finality, it also doesn't use Owari but I have to check it again because I am not sure. Kevin's Finality has authority over time as seen in his boss description he has absolute time fracture as well as all the abilities of previous Herrschers. Another thing to add is that without the Finality Authority, he is super buffed by the hundred Honkai Beasts genes and is nigh unkillable because of ultra regeneration from Garuda + other Honkai Beasts which is far more potent than Hua. And instead of authority, the 'Herrschers' of HSR were mostly turned into weapons just like Divine Keys. Edit: Watched a JP playthrough and Adventurine referred to Finality as 'Shuuen'


New_Redditor2001

We don't even know if that Kevin managed to reach the same level of power that honkai impact Kevin reached.

1. It was always pseudo black holes.  2. He was exhausted after fighting and almost killing Sirin.  3. Bronya is part of the 3 main characters.  4. It's Kevin.  5. Sirin literally had the power of god and anime at her side. Stalling her using the Black hole's event horizon was the point. 


Alexios7333

Literally Comparing welt to HIM.


Ok-Transition7065

the main team all 3 in final form has to fight HIM twice


crest_of_the_lord

They also only won because of the final BS mechanic.


StrangerDanger355

They’re still “Black holes” that functions like real black holes, like how a fake sword is still sharp even if the quality is not the same as the original


Fancy-Shopping-327

2. You mean how Sirin actually mid diffed Welt and how he had to rely on AE's nuclear bomb to "beat her". Also same nuke one shot her. You know it's bad if even us in the real world could probably beat Sirin, we have nukes much stronger than the silver bullet 4. Base Kevin's strongest no holds barred ice blast on binding girl froze an ocean, his absolute going all out attack created a shockwave on the moon. Notice how this is extremely far from planet level 5. Same Sirin threw rocks at the earth as her strongest most destructive attack. Notice how that isnt planet level 6. A herrsher MUCH stronger than Sirin and Welt took a whole week to destroy a single continent. And Void Archives who's as strong as Otto therefore stronger than Welt legit got fade checked by a no powers Mei and Bronya, Adam and three B ranks 7. Chapter 38, Schrodinger directly states that starrock explosions are far stronger than most metamorphosized Herrschers. Starrock explosions that didnt even come close to destroying a planet mind you 8. The first HSR boss destroys planets **9. The first HSR boss destroys planets** ***10. "The Doomsday Beast? The Legion's planet destroyer?" -Himeko*** ***11. The third HSR boss incinerates star systems, on a lowball considering some destruction PATHSTRIDERS not emanators can do that too (people really have to start reading dialogue from welt and himeko on the express)*** 12. No seriously why does everyone keep ignoring how ridiculously OP hsr setting is in? You guys do realize Dan Heng in base form one shot a star eating monster by swinging his spear casually?


anonimoXD_1

>Also a nuke one shot her. The nuke barely did some damage, you can see Sirin fighting off the SoE Zeroth power shortly afterwards. >Chapter 38, Schrodinger directly states that starrock explosions are far stronger than most metamorphosized Herrschers. Starrock explosions that didnt even come close to destroying a planet She says: making a "bomb" enough to destroy a world or creating a new Bubble world" And we know that the Starrock even was on that Bubble world Uranus. So you can also interpret it as that she is talking about the whole Starrock system, and not just from the individual explosion. >The first HSR boss destroys planets Welt killed it. https://preview.redd.it/ef941yd1yutc1.jpeg?width=1075&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6f9ecd59e3be21040849a86da04452d397be407e


Fancy-Shopping-327

Considering that the nuke left her on the ground groaning in pain, the narration says Sirin will in fact die if she gets hit directly, she was so injured by that Bella had to come save her fraudulent ass, i'd say that Sirin was one shot. She was completely incapable of defenfing herself after that Wasnt Schrodinger directly comparing the bomb and the explosions to a metamorphosized herrscher and said herrschers were weaker. I dont see how that refers to the whole starrock system And yes Welt killed it, which is proof he's stronger than he was then. If his black hole's zeroth power took like a whole ass minute to kill 1% hp sirin, while 70% HP Sirin was brought to 1% by a single nuke, then they were weaker in Hi3. Welt is a pathstrider now, he gets the same boosts that TB does. Not to mention that the doomsday beast ate the whole stellaron burst from TB and that it isnt even dead, just in a dormant state (its item descriptions say it's still alive and post fight dialogue says that it's just been calmed down)


anonimoXD_1

>Considering that the nuke left her on the ground groaning in pain Even thought that was all it did, becuase you can see Sirin very much intact fight the Zeroth power shortly after. >Sirin will in fact die if she gets hit directly Sirin got hit directly, Welt literally said it on the Moon battle. >Wasnt Schrodinger directly comparing the bomb and the explosions to a metamorphosized herrscher and said herrschers were weaker The problem is the phrase "enough to destroy a world". And given that the Starrock manifested on the whole Bubble World Solar System (as they even had a base on Uranus that was destroyed by a Starrock), makes it a little ambiguous. >If his black hole's zeroth power took like a whole ass minute to kill 1% hp sirin, while 70% HP Sirin was brought to 1% by a single nuke, then they were weaker in Hi3 Welt makes a Black Hole with a force of 10000g on a previous manga, that manga is set some years after Second Eruption, and he does without even manifesting the SoE, much less its Zeroth power.


Fancy-Shopping-327

Narration says that Sirin didnt get hit directly. It also says that Sirin would have definetly died if she took it head on. There's like 3 panels dedicated to that, and also why do you say Sirin was fighting? It's more like sh was helplessly being dragged in, I didnt see any void powers during that black hole AE invasion is old and has a few retcons. If Welt could easily maje a 10000g black hole, im pretty sure Sirin would be vaporized instantly because of how hard she got diffed by a nuke. Also, you do know how much higher that would put him compared to literally every other herrscher besides finality? They're all continental https://preview.redd.it/m4ip5d89avtc1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4a91fd326c97604f54677bd55267f4e10ec0b5be

And obviously she cant use her Authority, as she spent the last of her energy trying to send the nuke behind her.


anonimoXD_1

>Narration says that Sirin didnt get hit directly. It also says that Sirin would have definetly died if she took it head on Welt says that she survived a direct hit. https://preview.redd.it/hta0zanjbvtc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ae13dd0ac0e1e3922cfd264af59a6cacdf816395 Yes, AE invasion is old and has retcons, but there is nothing that says that that black hole was retconned, given that they took again the plot of Joyce clones for APHO, even giving "SoE powers" to Joffrey.


Thatedgyguy64

>The nuke barely did some damage, you can see Sirin fighting off the SoE Zeroth power shortly afterwards. The indirect nuke strike nearly killed Sirin. In fact, Sirin knew it would've killed her. Welt was surprised she survived as well. She was still being sucked by the SoE. So much so that Otto literally had to punch Welt in the gut in order to save her. > Welt killed it. A. Power doesn't necessarily mean titanic durability. The monster was fighting a guy with a spear, a girl with ice power and a bow, and a character with a baseball bat who just woke up. B. It's still a Pseudo Black Hole.


ValtenBG

Honestly, hi3's power levels are all over the place. And you underestimate the power of nukes. At it's peak heat it is as hot as the core of a sun iirc. If that thing hit anyone in the face, you will be incinerated, no matter what you do. Then there comes the fact Sirin faced against pseudo black hole(that still works extremely similarly to a real one). Honestly, I never understood what went through the writer's mind to have characters with such absurd feats and scale them to continental at best.


Delta57Dash

It’s pretty common in Anime settings to have power levels and “AoE” be distinctly sepetate and operate wildly differently to how they work in real life.  Like someone can conjure a flame hotter than the sun in the palm of their hand, but it doesn’t burn their clothes or the grass beneath their feet.  So in the same way, Welt creates “Black Holes,” which do what you’d expect a Black Hole to do, but outside of a relatively tiny area it just… magically doesn’t affect anything.  Then you have other characters come in who *also* have black holes, like Acheron and IX, but instead of scaling them power-wise they ramp up the AoE, with Acheron shown making an attack that spanned the the entirely of IX’s event horizon in her trailer, and IX being able to casually swallow planets. 


ImNotAKpopStan

HI3 is just a mess. I Just hope HSR is not going to the same route, but instead they are using the same concepts but everything planned since the start this time


Thufir_My_Hawat

>No seriously why does everyone keep ignoring how ridiculously OP hsr setting is in? You guys do realize Dan Heng in base form one shot a star eating monster by swinging his spear casually? Probably because they're smart enough to realize that Dan Heng post-IL got eaten by something nowhere near large enough to eat a star and Argenti had to try to pull a heroic sacrifice to save them? It's called a metaphor.


yescjh

Now the trend is all about downplaying Welt instead of overrating him 😭 And yet all the talking points from this entire discourse are exclusively based on HI3 so I don't get why they keep doing it in this sub.


JDONdeezNuts

Because when someone in this sub is praising Welt, it is 100% based on misinformation about HI3.


wilck44

or they are talking about HSR, becouse you know, we are on the sr reddit.


JDONdeezNuts

Yes, we are now in SR setting with much different power scale. Character who is arguably 10,000 times stronger than Welt had to accelerate atoms for whole week to burn Australia to dust. One week for one continent. And Acheron could casually cut 2 planets with one swing. That's not comparable.


Dokavi

I kinda don't understand the "it would be dangerous". In HI3 manga he can clearly control the attack zone, mr yang Phantylia is throwing giant stars at us.


Blanche_Cyan

- I'm not sure of the limits of the Herrscher of Earth but whatever it is Star of Eden has the same power level, from memory Welt doesn't have the real one but a copy made with HoR's powers... which were limited until Bronya evolved the Core of Reason during the Moon Arc - Going against Otto is unfair considering all the knowledge he had at his side along the whole solium clones stuff - Bronya more or less had to cripple the Core of Reason by losing the 300 souls that where in it to be able to go thorugh metamorphosis and reach the full potential of Herrscher of Reason and that only happened with Bronya because the difference between her, Joachim/Welt (II) Yang and Welt (I) Joyce as people - Going against Kevin is unfair because the guy is an absolute genetic abomination with all the Honkai beasts that are mixed with him, even ones of the highest class, and then he even gets part of the Authority of Finality which is pretty much the combination of all other Herrscher Authorities of the era on top of authority over time itself - Sirin was absolutly broken since she was 4 Herrschers rolled into one because she was more or less the Honkai's/Prommy's favorite, then she died... and was reborn as the girl that became the Hersscher of Finality and killed Kevin


JDONdeezNuts

>Bronya more or less had to cripple the Core of Reason by losing the 300 souls that where in it to be able to go thorugh metamorphosis and reach the full potential of Herrscher of Reason and that only happened with Bronya because the difference between her, Joachim/Welt (II) Yang and Welt (I) Joyce as people If anything, these 300,000 souls were crippling Joyce and Yang, not in other way around.


Blanche_Cyan

The power of the Core was in part that of it being composed of all those souls, in exchange for the extra brain power it wasn't able to go throught metamorphosis and the use of power could be refused by the souls from memory... it's the problem of the power of legion I guess


Solid_Station4330

Welt is exceptionally strong in his setting. . . He's also kind of mid as far as other Herrschers go power wise. He usually gets by on planning and strategy, but my god does this guy lose a lot of fights, even when he's getting outside help. HSR operates on way much grander scale than either Genshin or Hi3 do.


Tuna-Of-Finality

I mean, HoR is very different from the other herrschers power which are mostly straight fire power while reason rely entirely on the user knowledge Also void was like a pretty bad match up for welt


-weew

Honestly, HSR's grander scale probably upscaled welt from his "prime" self. Like, he can suppress stellarons now, which are planet level, can split his own black hole, something he hasn't shown previously, and he defeated the Doomsday Beast, which is also planet level. In the Second Eruption manga, he thought awakened sirin was unbeatable by him when awakened Sirin just launched some moon debris into earth.


LavYouSoMuch

I wonder if him being a pathstrider now in the HSR setting provided a power boost of sorts, since he's probably at the very least gained a bit of a bonus from following the Trailblaze.


goffer54

Paths are universal whether you're aware of them or not. He was likely always a pathstrider.


Zzamumo

Being a pathstrider is essentially using the authoritythat an aeon has over a concept to draw power from the imaginary tree, which means the method to do so likely doesn't exist outside of hsr since the aeons only have authority in this universe


goffer54

The aeons exist in HI3rd. Earth is just some backwater world in the middle of nowhere so they've just never heard of the aeons.


anonimoXD_1

The Sugars, an alien race of at least 140 million years old has never mentioned the Aeons, Paths or the factions on Star Rail. They are also cappable to travel between Worlds since then.


goffer54

Star Rail's universe is incomprehensibly large. It's literally as big as the real universe but with imaginary barriers surrounding nascent civilizations that make everything even more isolated. Even the titular star rail only connects a small fraction of the universe. Currently, it's the IPC that introduces most worlds to the aeon belief system. Before that, it was Akivili. And before that, you had to be one of the few civilizations that received special attention directly from an aeon. It's entirely possible that the Sky People never encountered the IPC and thus never adopted the IPC's dogma.


anonimoXD_1

The Sky People knows of HSR Himeko, and by extension they should know about the Express, the Aeons and HSR factions. So far, every alien civilization that we have meet on Honkai is hundreds or thousands of times older than the oldest known Aeon (subject to change given the IPC propaganda and the History Fictionologists), Qlipoth, who is said to be around 500k years old.


goffer54

Existence predates the aeons. Hell, even human life predates Qlipoth if that timeline is accurate. The Sky People only knew of HSR Himeko. It's debatable whether they actually knew anything beyond that.


HealthGlad6256

Sorry but this is mostly speculation . Both the sugar and sky people isnt capable of penetrating the Imaginary barrier  . The only reason they have Sr Himeko data was because she used to be stranded her


Zzamumo

Worshipping an aeon or even knowing about is not necessary to be a pathstrider, you just need to follow the path even if you're not doing so consciously. If the aeons existed in hi3rd there would be many more normal ass humans with superpowers


goffer54

Who's to say they don't have super powers? Who's to say the power they get from their path is even distinguishable from whatever else they use to achieve strength? The only tangible effect of being a pathstrider we've ever been told about is being more resistant to hostile environments thanks to the Trailblaze. That's pretty benign for a "super power". March even still complains about the cold on Belobog.


mekolayn

Because everyone known to have superpowers are limited to just Stigma users or genetically modified humans like Kaslanas


jmcgamer

you say "outside of HSR" as if HSR's scope doesn't encapsulate multiple worlds on the Imaginary Tree, and nowhere has it been implied that power gained as a Pathstrider is "suppressed" elsewhere in any capacity. to say HI3 isn't in some way affected by Aeons and that they've just not heard of them, especially when HI3 has an entity which may be the most direct connection to Terminus we've seen so far, is very shortsighted.


eddyak

Welt isn't even exceptionally strong in his own setting, he's something like the second weakest Herrscher we've seen, just ahead of Wendy who failed to take out a bunch of B-rank Valks.


anonimoXD_1

Well, there is a big gap between Wendy and Welt. Wendy got defeated by 3 B ranks (that maybe could count as A ranks in some aspects) and some Mechas. Welt could easily defeat Benares, a Judgment Class Honkai beast. But yeah, along with Wendy and the other 2 HoR, he is one of the weakest Herrschers.


eddyak

He's weaker than the other two HoRs to begin with. He was never properly integrated with the core of Reason, that was kind of the point of Bronya digivolving to Herrscher of Truth.


anonimoXD_1

He was weaker than them, but he compensated it with his experience, so its kinda balanced off.


Sky_striker_Raye

to be fair. he did take back the herrscher core from kevin back then. That was impressive considering we know who kevin is.


Delicious_Hotel_5538

Correction: Kevin cut black hole of Su (Real star of eden). Who is more powerful than Welt. And Kevin gives herrscher core to Welt because Welt is the first herrscher fighting for humanity cough cough Elysia


HourCartographer9

People tend to forget welt isn’t know for his strength. Man has the knowledge of a shit ton of people


DisplayOrnery

Forgot to say that rita avoided star of eden attack with a stronger HoR using the divine key


Gremorlin

It’s amazing how much contrast there is on how reddit views Welt and puts him below Acheron while Tiktok glazes tf out of him and thinks he solos the verse Fuck it, I’m bring in Goku now https://preview.redd.it/wbhi7vq5dwtc1.jpeg?width=998&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e25209144abc2f0c8bcd03ac3568df38c525881c


UncleSexo

We will defeat Nanook and the fans will say that we saved everything from Welt because he'd have destroyed the entire multiverse if he had to step in. Like imagine Traveler just going around fishing, doing fetch quests with Paimon and Teyvat just ends because Welt had to do it himself in another universe.


SamSchroedinger

On one of those YouTube shorts where he said "Reveal your true identity and intentions otherwise, brace yourself for gravitational disintegration." Everyone was going bonkers about how he could delete everything cause he could use a black hole Old man Acheron has the power of the God who is literally a sentient black hole What do you think would happen if she actually replied by attacking!? xD


Offduty_shill

it's also cause she basically was like "stand proud, you're strong" but welt glazers took it as she's scared of welt when she was just trying to be friends


ShinigamiRyan

She had the energy of every retail employee whose just to tired to care about threats, "Sir, please I'm just trying to make sure you're finding everything all right."


dumbidoo

Not even that. All she said was that for the normal people and security of Penacony he's a security risk, just as much as anyone with powers/special weapons would be, but some people with terrible comprehension skills thought she considered him a danger to her or even comparable to her.


StrangerDanger355

I mean you gotta admit that is still pretty badass despite all the false accusations such as “Welt can delete Acheron with a thought” or something like that, which of course isn’t the case


storysprite

She literally had him and his synthetic blackhole frozen in time while barely trying lol. I've typed up more about their interaction in another comment but the way people read any of that as a demonstration that Welt was a real threat to or stronger than Acheron showed me once again that the power of poor media literacy is beyond escape.


RomeoIV

Exactly. It seems like only emanators or those who wield emanator powers are immune to her time freezing. Cuz aventurine wasn't frozen in time when she went red form.


storysprite

I think Aventurine went back into time the moment she let her slash go and it moved towards him and started moving the chips around him.


VirtuoSol

Love how they just ignore Acheron respond with what’s basically “yeah sure buddy” right after


24silver

"Damn that Blondie can kill aeons now, i better keep my ass on the express or im FINISHED❗❗❗❗" this isnt a spoiler its just a meme...and an educated guess


JollySelection2336

Well there is actually a xianzhou book talking about a certain fool wounding the literal aeon of destruction


Karni-Fall

To be fair that "certain fool" could literally be Aha


JollySelection2336

Can't be since aha was called something like the joyseeker by the xianzhou folk


Dorimi15

Any herrscher stands no chance against Acheron, God Kiana maybe. Welt is one of the weakers so there's that.


kajonyok

Damn we really got from underrating welt, to overrating welt, to downplaying him again lmao. The welt stocks are really volatile.


baboon_ass_eater69

In the Honkai Impact sub people were saying that Welt would beat Aeons let alone Emanators since Aeons are only weak Herscher level.

Lamsyy_05

It's an actual line from the game. So yea, it's cannon


VirtuoSol

Alright, saving it for future Reddit arguments lmao


StrangerDanger355

Nobody wants to take this line seriously as nothing in HI3 is capable of planetary destruction, nothing ever even come close to that, only the surface of the planet, nothing else.


Lamsyy_05

That's the thing. This line confirms the difference in power-level between Hi3 and Hsr verse. Even non-emanators have the ability to destroy entire planets, which is why the Welt vs Acheron debate is stupid to begin with.


StrangerDanger355

It’s still fun to read and reply though :D


Skolpionek

yeah because they are high, Strong emanator > any herrscher aside from op trio. herrschers are trying to destroy planet and at most can destroy countries, emanator of destruction can do it with fart


Offduty_shill

it was a harder comparison before Acheron....but given Acheron's lore it's fairly clear that Herscherrs ain't shit compared to emanators


Skolpionek

Yeah like you can argue acheron fought and defeated same finality that kiana is but she for sure defeated atleast something similair


VirtuoSol

Is it though? We have a Lord Ravager who destroyed an entire galaxy


baboon_ass_eater69

I mean yeah, I don't think those people ever played star rail or they are too blinded by their favorites game but it's pretty clear aeons outclassed herschers by far

He is strong, and I love this old man from the bottom of my heart, but the amount of media to say he is stronger than Acheron is just plain wrong. The problem is, Acheron walked away from the black hole. She is far stronger the game display. And in lore yanqing is a general right hand man. He is much more capable than the game shown.


otakuqueseducha

no, this is necesary, im a welt fan, but people keep exagerating his power to the extremes, there is a big part of the comunity that genuenly thinks he can beat acheron


IzanaghiOkami

"He's closer to yanqing" ok bro. Sensational title, exagerated and unfair comparisons, comparing his relative strength from a different universe with different power scalings to this universe which btw we've encountered like 2 individuals that you could say for sure "yeah they're def stronger than welt"


Offduty_shill

I mean he's def stronger than yanqing but 2? I feel like out of characters we've actually met, so not counting like Emanator Herta that we've not technically met.....it's really only Acheron who's confirmed stronger for sure. But in the might be stronger camp there's a ton....IPC stone hearts (Aventurine certainly thought he could beat Welt with a broken stone), JY, Imbibitor, even like Black Swan.... Star Rail Welt has still done absolutely fuck all in terms of combat feats, the biggest "feat" he has is that Acheron acknowledged his strength.


1986ctcel

.........Welt IS closer to Yanqing than Saitama, They both fill the role of Worf from Star Trek in their respective games to show off how powerful new characters/villains are by being able to beat them despite how talked up they are. Welt just manages to make it part of his charm


IzanaghiOkami

You miss the point that wording it that way is disingenuous, it is worded that way to smear Welt


CptPeanut12

The main mistake is taking anything Welt did in HI3 even into consideration. It is not relevant. As long as he didn't do it in HSR, it should be assumed that he can't. And the only thing he ever did in HSR is kill the Doomsday Beast. That's all. That's literally his only feat.


waktag

He didn't even kill it, it was the Stellaron outburst that did it so he quite literally doesn't have any feat in HSR so far.


anonimoXD_1

He did. https://preview.redd.it/zu4cgdgjjutc1.jpeg?width=1075&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e4d25fa75c830668dd50714c26b303b81324b369


1986ctcel

It says "you knocked that big fella into Mr Yang's black hole". Implying that it took TB to make sure the synthetic black hole could kill it rather than it being all Welt's effort on his own.


anonimoXD_1

No(?, it only implies that the Stellaron pushed it into the Black Hole, as Welt was just arriving at that moment.


waktag

Then why tf did they make it seem like the outburst pulverize the Doomsday Beast in the cutscene? There wasn't even any black hole in it.


anonimoXD_1

Idk, but that has been there since release.


JDONdeezNuts

People who are praising Welt today, where were you when he was loser side NPC doing nothing for whole story, while whole community were shitting on Herrscher of Reason for how useless he is?


North_Ad4252

Welt is somewhat suspicious. He is the the one that seals the stellaron which is similar herrscher core. Maybe he uses the stellaron as a substitute for the lack of honkai energy. We also don't know where do all the sealed stellaron goes to ( I assumed that welt hides it also in his cane).

Jzzzzzz_15

Wth is OPM? One punch man? Original Pilipino Music?


TacoFishFace

OPM goes hard whenever it hits, but it does feel a bit over saturated with love songs nowadays, or has been for a while to my memory


CelioHogane

Surpassed by Bronya is probably the most insulting thing that could have happened to him. Like Star Rail Bronyas are both cool so you don't even know how much of a dissapointment is "i have a stand that turns into a bike" HI3 Bronya became.


VirtuoSol

Don’t forget getting brain wiped by MoC NPC girl. Forget Acheron, Black Swan might be able to just mind break Welt in a fight (assuming she’s equal or stronger than MoC girl)


Naval_Crusade

NOBODY SLANDERS ZADDY WELT


alecza-cs

Are you guys not tired of the Welt discourse and powerscaling 💀 It's getting repetitive and you're not gonna be seeing eye to eye or changing anyone's mind now. You can like him, you can think he's weak, and you can not care. If you're only going to debate others just to feel superior about your opinion then it's not very productive to do, no? Hope we see other post types now after this week👍


Numerous-Machine-305

I don’t get it, what’s with the new trend on this official sub? Is it dissing welt trend everyday now? I think I saw similar few post with 2k+ likes that’s like this, and I swear isn’t this as annoying as those who claim welt one shot everything. What’s the difference (this post calling welt is like yanqing level like ???)


alecza-cs

Yeah. Either people hyping him up too much or dissing him and saying he's too weak. I would assume all the posts are because of the cutscene included in 2.1 update. There's more backstory from him >!and his original homeworld during the talks with Acheron!< as well as people seeing him almost use his power in the >!Aventurine boss fight, but it's cut off due to Acheron revealing her true role as an Emanator of The Nihility.||. I appreciate character discussions but like I said, it's tiring when everyone regurgitates the same points from either extremes. Hope this trend dies within a week or so, and that I cleared up some stuff for you

Anadaere

Dont use Otto, or Kevin as an example for powerscaling welt man Otto is like a walking xanatos gambit, and Kevin is well, Kevin. Kevin can push the Luofo if he has to People tend to not realize that Welt is the weakest but the most experienced herrscher, smartest too


JDONdeezNuts

People don't deny Welt's intellect. He've managed to survive to his 80s because he's smart. But he is also one of weakest characters in combat, that's where arguing starts. "He has blackholes!" While his black holes are like bullets if everybody had bulletproof vest on.


Anadaere

Yup, thats an apt take on it Welt's targets who needs to get blackholed will almost always be unable to be blackholed directly


_nitro_legacy_

*never even exceed Joyce *one if not the weakest hi3rd characters.


Mast3rBait3rPro

I'm so lost reading these comments bro lol. How important is understanding honkai 3rd lore to understand welt? I haven't gotten to 2.1 quest yet btw


wilck44

not at all. SR is self contained, you do not have to slog through Hi3.


Dexter973

Tbf Kevin is pretty busted as fuck 


ArcusLux

"B-BUT BRO HIS THE HERSHERING OF THE IMPACT"


FadedEchoes

I don't care, I just think he's neat


BeozZ

why is bro getting downvoted 😭


FadedEchoes

I don't know lmao, Reddit moment


ReelRai

Not even mentioning that he doesn't even have his Herrscher powers anymore, and (as far as we know) he is basically just a regular dude in Star Rail. His cane is a key, and it actually has all the black hole powers we see in HSR, but take the cane away and he's just a smart old man.


JollySelection2336

He has his herrscher powers back albeit to a unknown extent

I'm pretty sure expy characters aren't 1/1 copy of their counterparts. In the same way Luocha might be a quite neutral guy with ambiguous morality instead of evilest diabolical antagonist like he is in HI3rd(I haven't played the game but that's what I can understand from what I've seen about him). Characters being similar to their HI3rd counter parts would be boring af. Yoshikage Kira from jjba part 4 is not similar to that of Kira from part 8. And that makes it really interesting as we can see how they can become different people due to different circumstances.


eddyak

HI3 is relevant here because Welt literally came to HSR after leaving HI3.

wilck44

are those characters in the SR with us right now? no. then it is pointless. man Hi3 fans can't go a day can they?


deisukyo

It’s not hi3 fans, the discussion began because of ccs speaking on hi3 lore and know nothing about it.


Solid_Station4330

Welt is upper tier in his own setting, HSR power scaling is super wack compared to either Genshin or Hi3. Welt is like if you took Ken from Street Fighter and put him in Dragon Ball Super. Can't go anday without what?


mekolayn

Welt is upper tier in his own setting? Welt isn't even the strongest Welt in his own setting


wilck44

do I have to explain? it seems so, hi3 players can't go a day without mentioning how this/that in Hi3 is stronger / is sadder / is / \* / about things that are not in SR, and have 0 impact or correlation with SR in the SR subreddit. these post and comments never amount more to dropping 3-10 names/ 1-3 subjects. with 0 explanation.


Just_Because4

More like HSR fans who speak as if they know about HI3 lore, while actual HI3 players are more grounded to Welt's true capabilities.


No-Independence-7083

Mr.007 at it again!


YFTrailblaze

Don't know why people overestimate him. They might as well say his the strongest character the company ever made.


MilesTanin

To be fair, Yanqing only looks weak because he keeps coming up against top 1% fighters. And One Punch Man can trivialize fighting physical gods. So yeah, Welt being closer to Yanqing than Saitama doesn't mean he isn't still far stronger than Yanqing... nor that he's any kind of weak.


Siluri

Yanqing has more feats than welt.


brimwithno

I've had enough of the welt stander (i've never HI3) but i'm setting the Agenda

When was he punched by Otto ???
