From what has been leaked so far DU is mostly tweaking existing Blessings and introducing new Curios and Path Resonances. Mechanically they aren't like the Baseballer weapons though.
However it has been also teased that we might get a new mode like Swarm or GG in 2.4, so who knows, if people like the Baseball weapons they might throw it in.
Currently I've saved ~280 pulls. With the next monthly shop, the 10 pull from the new patch, and the next Mo C I should be able to get to 300+ pulls for Firefly whom I plan to E 2 S 1 if my luck permits it.

So apparently this is a thing...
- The Boothill/Argenti ship has gained some traction despite the fact that the two characters have never met, and don't even belong to the same faction. This being said, the factions they do belong to are similar, with both the Galaxy Rangers and Knights of Beauty travelling the universe and righting wrongs, and the coarse space cowboy Boothill and the Dork Knight Argenti provide ample fuel for funny character interactions. Amusingly enough, Boothill's voicelines reveal that he has, in fact, run into Argenti in the past, and that the two of them have several things in common.
How's the chance that this ship began from Content Leak?
I mean, I believe that Boothill/Robin is the most popular ship for both of them based largely on having the same debut patch and the idea that it would make Sunday so mad, so I've heard worse justifications.
But let's be honest, this game has Bronya/Seele, Ratio/Aventurine, one-sided Asta/Arlan, standard MC simp ships, and a whole bunch of reaches and wishful thinking.

Does anyone actually read these?I thought Boothill/Argenti got popular due to the "guns and roses" aesthetic.
Goddammit, Schezo... || *insert incredibly thirsty copypasta about Dr. Ratio*My point wasn't actually about the Argenti/Boothill part, but rather the Content Leak part
But yeah, people have shipped characters for lesser reasons so
Something I think about every time I read the HSR character pages: wouldn't it be better to move the "Amplifier Artifact" trope on the main page instead of having it pop up for every single playable character, as it boils down to listing the (identical) properties of third and fifth eidolons?
Same with "Weapon Specialization" to a degree, which explains that, well, every character has an associated light cone - said Light Cone could basically be moved to the character's main info alongside Path and Type.
I have a similar beef with the overuse of Ms. Fanservice. If everyone's a Ms. Fanservice, then no one actually is.

An Eidolon isnt exactly an artifact or anything of the sort. I dont think it qualifies.
The character specific light cones with them on it I think should be up in the discription, and the Light Cone art be hidden under their name like other series do with aged up characters in different entries or time skips and such.
Not everyone is Ms. Fanservice. Like I better not see that entry on Hook's page and such.
If there is something worthy of note for them, it should be noted.

Huh? The game is not 80% female, it’s 60%. Pretty much every patch it’s 1:1 male female for the 5*, the 4*s are slightly skewed at launch and has roughly stayed that way.
Also… GD Aventurine has a Boob Window. And there are plenty of female characters that are not Ms Fanservice, most are 4* but 5*s like Huohuo and Fu Xuan too.

Unnecessary, just like their unique cone’s name and if there is anything special about it. Any 4* cones featuring them as well can be listed and pictured.

The problem is that most of these entries run off their character design and not their actual trailer and in-game involvements, and HSR doesn't really doll out fanservice that much. Serval, Hanya, Guinaifen, Jingliu, Natasha, Sparkle, Acheron, Boothill and Ruan Mei shouldn't even have entries, and Yukong is stripperiffic at best. Tingyun is mostly a pass since she acts coquettish in-game.
It's telling when some of these entries try to sneak around with claims of downplayed trope.

It's not impossible, but, the way they were talking about it, it sounded like the DU is more of a re-balance than an overhaul
