Hey there, Trailblazers. Version 4.1 Phase 2 is finally here! That rascal Boothill is riding back into the warp pool. For those who joined in Phase 1, does your Physical Break team still feel like it's missing something? You got it — from April 8th to the 21st, this is your best chance to fill out your Cowboy team. Let's jump right into the Phase 2 highlights.

This Phase 2 warp pool is very straightforward — it's mainly Boothill's solo rerun event. His signature Light Cone is also featured in the concurrent "Bygone Reminiscence" banner. The only 5-star character is Boothill, and the featured 4-stars are Moze, Misha, and Asta.

Also, don't forget: the new Phase 1 5-star character "Immortal D. " is still available throughout the entire Version 4.1. So, the choice you face is: pull for the brand-new Lightning Hunt big shot "Immortal D. ", or fill out that slick Physical Cowboy? Or go for both? This really tests the depth of your wallet.

Speaking of resources, the Phase 2 double-drop event runs from the 10th to the 20th, with double material drops each day. Whether you're building Boothill or Immortal D. , I strongly recommend clearing out all your double drop attempts.

Many of you might be wondering: what if I'm short on Stellar Jades? My own way to fill the gap — and what I recommend to friends — is to get them through COCODP. It works for someone like me who appreciates convenience.

If you're planning to pull for Boothill, congrats — get ready to welcome a "single-target nuke" master! He's a 5-star Physical Hunt character whose core gameplay involves dueling enemies one-on-one, then breaking their weakness and triggering explosive damage in one shot.

Light Cone Selection: First choice is his signature Light Cone, which increases Break Effect and reduces enemy DEF, perfectly synergizing with his mechanics. For F2P players, you can grab one from the Simulated Universe shop or use event reward 4-star Light Cones as a substitute.

Relic Configuration: The 4-piece Iron Cavalry Against the Scourge + 2-piece Talia: Kingdom of Banditry is the standard endgame setup. Look for Break Effect on all main stats, and Speed Boots are mandatory! Sub-stat priority is Break Effect > Speed > Crit Rate/Crit DMG. You need to stack at least 200% Break Effect for your damage to be respectable.

Team Composition: Boothill shines brightest in a "Super Break" team. Core teammates are Harmony Trailblazer (provides Super Break multiplier with ultimate) and Ruan Mei (accelerates break efficiency). For sustain, Gallagher (Break healer) is your first choice — the two complement each other perfectly. If you don't have Ruan Mei, Asta can serve as a substitute by boosting the entire team's Speed.

The most worthwhile event to grind during Phase 2 is "Dusty Memoir Record". This gameplay is similar to a strategic tower defense auto-battler, where you raise troops and fight your way through with some roguelike elements — it has a decently high ceiling. The key deadline is April 20th, and it rewards 1,200 Stellar Jades and 1 Self-Modeling Resin, so don't miss out.

Version 4.1 is only 4 weeks long. When Phase 2 ends (April 21st), this shortened version comes to a close. So whether it's pulling for characters or clearing events, time is extremely tight.

During this hectic period, I personally can't be bothered with complicated currency conversion or price comparisons — I just go straight to COCODP, take a quick look at the exchange rate, and get it done. The time I save is better spent on a few more relic runs or figuring out how to max out event rewards.

Version 4.1 Phase 2 is essentially a "high-purity" catch-up period. If you want to build a super satisfying Physical Break team, Boothill is practically irreplaceable as the absolute core. Paired with his incredibly smooth duel mechanic, once built right, he's an absolute nightmare for boss fights.

Resource Priority: First, clear out all your double material drops, then grab the 1,200 Stellar Jades from the event.

May your pulls never miss, and may you get a guaranteed first multi-pull! See you on the Astral Express!
