He's got one of the coolest skills too

runic ether
#

he runs hyperbloom, bloom, burgeon, taser

#

vape

runic ether
#

yup

#

ah yes his skill where he becomes vergil

#

ayato is very cool

#

and of course, hes hydro

#

so hes good

#

neuvillette is the better one to run hyperbloom as the main driver for it but ayato does burgeon better

#

childe does vape better

#

all 3 do taser very well

#

this is the balance of the hydro 5 star main dps characters

#

and cyno

#

cyno is also good

#

5 star electro polearm

#

hes a furry

#

cyno is also a strong character

#

the thing about cyno however is that his gameplay is... kinda boring?

#

it depends person to person of course

long tree
#

He's also got kaggyfilms as a va, who supports the cyno X tignari ships, and also he's an Egyptian inspired card game player

runic ether
#

but hes just an on-field driver/hypercarry for quicken/aggravate and hyper/quickbloom

#

oh yeah cyno's deal is that he is sumeru's top dog (literally) when it comes to keeping researchers from going full mad scientists

#

and hes obsessed with the in-game tcg

#

...

glossy latch
#

Oh so Sumeru is both Egypt and India?

runic ether
#

i think u would appreciate his puns too...

#

yes

#

desert is egyptian inspired with king dhesheret and the goddess of flowers

#

the rainforest in based on india

runic ether
#

they actually adopted collei hmm

#

in any case, at the very least, next patch, the weapon banner will actually be good

glossy latch
runic ether
#

staff of scarlet sands is one of the best polearms, and the haran geppaku futsu is actually really good universally too

#

between all 4 banners this time around

#

furina adds the most in theory

#

but all 4 banners have characters worth getting to a certain degree

#

cyno's value decreases a lot if you end up wanting/getting yae miko or raiden or if keqing shows up randomly

#

ayato's value decreases if you ever get neuvillette or childe and dont plan on building a burgeon team ever

#

baizhu is never bad

#

hes got slow dendro application and his healing and shielding combined are welcome in any team regardless of element thanks to his ability to shield and heal especially with fontaine characters

#

furina is also never bad since she is her own archetype and gives a ton of value to different characters like noelle, jean, charlotte, mika and such

glossy latch
#

Isnt raiden the one that really wants c2?

runic ether
#

no

#

c2 raiden is beyond overkill

#

c2 raiden is for ppl doing speedruns or ppl doing one-shots

#

the best c2 in the game is nahida arguably

#

even then shes amazing at c0

#

actually maybe best c2 is yelan

#

hmmmmmm

glossy latch
#

Also what character has the most "depth" gameplay wise?

runic ether
#

thats kinda tough

#

haitham is up there

#

wanderer too

#

neuvillette can be really hard to master on timings or optimal damage

#

raiden and hu tao also have some learning curve

#

keqing has some tough rotations

#

furina arguably has a ton of depth not from her direct gameplay but how the rest of your team plays and the situations she creates

glossy latch
#

Wanderer?

runic ether
#

yes

#

especially if u dont have a shield

#

manaing his mid-air combat and learning how to properly do charge attacks for damage

#

c2 also adds his burst into the mix since its worth using once u have it and hes a rather complicated character to teambuild

#

he can take advantage of various different supports and such with the only caveat being you want faruzan with him

#

but shes only ever been on banners with him

#

haitham's case is that his rotations are very very precise

#

and theres a lot of tech you can do such as learning how to bounce his skill off enemies to do a plunge attack without wasting timme

glossy latch
#

Hm

runic ether
#

and how to weave normals between charge attacks to trigger yelan/xq burst

glossy latch
#

Guess I'll keep an eye out for his rerun

runic ether
#

and how to burst on him, swap to someone else and skill/burst and then swap back to haitham to catch the burst

glossy latch
#

On a sidenote, im surprised we haven't had a uh

#

Oh what's her name

runic ether
#

bronya?

#

seele?

glossy latch
#

The martial artist in HI3

runic ether
#

i dont know many hi3rd characters

#

sushang?

glossy latch
#

Some of her units had a gimmick where the skill was basically just a second attack button

#

And I'm surprised Genshin hasn't done that yet

#

Fu Hua

#

Thats her name

runic ether
#

oh fu hua

#

as in, the skill was used as much as the attack button was?

#

we technically have thundering fury bennett for that

glossy latch
#

No as in literally it was an attack button

#

And you basically had attack chains

#

Which changed the attacks

runic ether
#

childe

glossy latch
#

Like Attack attack skill being different from skill skill skill

#

Or skill attack skill

runic ether
#

ah okay

#

thats freminet

#

his skill is on the pressure gauge and you use it like an attack and his gimmick is controlling the pressure gauge to either buff his physical damage or cryo damage

#

depending on what you do, u can lock out your skill for a few or be able to weave it between your normals into skill chain into normals into burst into skill chains etc etc

#

he has a few different combos u can do

#

as a physical dps: n2 -> 2[e n2 e n1]

#

thats his bnb

#

this increases the pressure gauge enough without locking his skill ala robo ky from ggx2 while extracting the damage buff for physical

#

or if you are cryo dpsing: 4(ee n1)

#

his physical damage is not negligible so weaving normals between skill chains to make sure the gauge doesnt hit 0 the entire time is also good

#

fortunately, we get a free freminet this patch nyaruhodo

#

hes a really interesting character to play and i am sad i had to skip him in 4.0 but was hoping he would have been free and he was

#

hes also very f2p friendly for either of his team comps

#

you can run him with kaeya mona lynette/sucrose and you have a great cryo dps (this team would likely be better with the rizzler)

#

or you can run him physical with mona fischl diona

#

or you can run him as a hyperfridge driver with yaoyao/dendro mc, fischl and xingqiu

#

this is technically best of both worlds since you get to superconduct for physical buffs, freeze with xq to preserve bloom cores, and trigger hyperblooms

glossy latch
#

Huh, they put that on a 4*?

runic ether
#

but its the worst damage for freminet himself

glossy latch
#

Though he isn't quite what I meant either, but at least close

runic ether
#

4 stars are often very unique overall

#

upcoming chevreuse literally fights with a rifle and is a pyro healer for overload teams specifically

#

kaveh has a very interesting kit

#

beidou's kit is unique to her

#

kirara and yaoyao have unique kits too

glossy latch
#

Kaveh is a 4*?

runic ether
#

yep

glossy latch
#

Also I assume chevreuse is a catalyst user?

runic ether
#

no

#

polearm

#

but yeah kaveh's kit is entirely unique to him

#

his skill causes an aoe that makes dendro cores explode immediately

#

kaveh basic gameplay is to create cores and then make them explode

#

so hes a bloom carry

#

but this ability + his dendro infusion on his burst let him be a driver for hyperbloom and burgeon

#

especialyl for teams that struggle with either dendro/hydro app and want to mix reactions

#

ie: you want to vape hits alongside your burgeons but you have too much hydro applid

#

you can force the blooms to explode and deal dendro to burn again to vape + burgeon the remaining cores

#

no other character does this

#

oh right candace and chongyun are the only 2 characters that can infuse your team with elements by default (c6 bennett does too)

honest pawn
#

this took forever

#

but I finally got it

#

here's my top 20

#

judge me as you will

glossy latch
#

Still Freminet sounds fun

#

I assume physical teams aren't great though right?

runic ether
#

physical KEKW

#

nah its not baf

#

*bad

#

its just an archetype that only exists through eula (and now freminet)

#

but the issue is freminet can run freeze better and arguably the hyperfridge teams do better on average

#

hm yea every physical character besides eula graduated to a better team as content released

#

rosaria does great in freeze and reverse melt

#

keqing went on to quicken/aggravate

#

kaeya also does better in rev melt/freeze/fridge

unkempt orchid
#

80 wishes

got keqing

im going to krill

#

Yo Fontaine actually found a way to make water fun as hell

#

That's insane

versed pawn
#

Was out of the loop smilegate tried to to implement a system for units like genshin constellation for units community backlash got big enough that a Chinese playerbase rent a truck that was supposed to ride arround the HQ for a week for multiple hours each replaying content creators concerns about those changes

#

They scrapped the changes

long tree
#

Don't they already have a dupe system

versed pawn
#

Yes but they wanted to add a 2nd

#

Which gives new passives

#

Like an old unit getting a buff at the start of the battle that makes him take 30% of the team dmg and other extra stats

#

The current dupe system is outside of crit chance stats pretty much whatever

#

It's minor stat boosts

#

So people usually keep their farm able imprints usually for units with crit% imprints

#

Since 18% attack is whatever

long tree
versed pawn
#

Because they are pve I guess too

#

E7 is pvp centered

#

U actually get a advantage from having extra abilities

long tree
#

Honkai impact third literally just says fuck you, 80% of your units functionality is behind dupes and their weapon

versed pawn
#

Tho I still say like with wriothesley putting a gameplay mechanic behind his e1 kinda dirty

#

More or less I guess

#

At least it's heavenly changing how he plays

#

Can't believe nobody animated that picture yet ConcernedFroge

late canopy
#

I lost 50/50 and had to go to 76 and 82 respectively before getting Furina

#

The bright side though!

#

Best one to lose it to if I was going to

#

Last standard banner character I didn't have yet

#

Also got c4 Char and c5 Collei

runic ether
#

nice

#

shes still really good for neuvillette for the ir

late canopy
#

I pulled a bit more

#

Aww damn

#

On the bright side these extra pulls brought Collei and Char both to c6

summer hornet
# honest pawn this took *forever*

Okay I need to ask, exactly how long did this take you? Because I think I’ve been chipping away at this for the better part of a half hour and I’m still only 15% done

#

As far as your list itself, I’m not a Jalter fan myself but pretty respectable overall

honest pawn
#

Jalter's just cute, that's why she's numero 3

#

and Muramasa being #1 isn't a surprise to anyone I think

idle grove
#

god I thought this would take a long time but damn

#

I'm only at 25%

honest pawn
#

to be fair

#

I just spammed tie until I got to a choice with a servant I care about

#

since really only your top 20 matters

ebon quartz
#

Honestly debating if I should even ascend my Tingyun to 80 or not.

Since I'm guaranteed Bronya soon.

summer hornet
#

They’re good at different things

ebon quartz
#

Fair, the team they're gonna get slotted into though is the same.

Blade/Jinglu/Lynx (will be Luocha if I get him)

summer hornet
#

Oh him

#

*hrm

#

…I’ll let Misty or someone else who knows the numbers better say whether Bronya or Tingyun’s better there lol

#

I’m currently using Dan Heng IL for 90% of stuff, so Tingyun is more valuable than Bronya for me rn

#

But that ain’t you

ebon quartz
#

Ye, I have my dot team pretty much locked in too so I have two solid teams I just need to max out relics for.

#

And well, trying to get better relics for Jinglu >.>

runic ether
#

both are very good and worth using at 80

Oh yeah btw, the weird mist-bound island ... is it not part of the Archon quest?

she becomes capable of doing her own door loop, can run her with castoria/oberon

only a 19-way tie for first lmao

there was a 13-way tie for twentieth too, bc why not

Herc and Cú fell off my top fifty this time around

If this was just FSN/FZ servants, the number one is the Blue Man followed up by The Strongest there is

Unfortunately, they have released too many more dragon girls

the lore is very interesting but I need to actually play the game to get through it

turbid olive
#

What in the actual hell is this? I need to collect additional tickets to be able to build ships for this event?!

long tree
#

You use tickets first

#

Then you build with cubes iirc

old galleon
#

^

#

tickets are effectively free cubes but you can only use them on that banner

#

and given that shimakaze is a ur, it's probably not a bad idea to try to get her

#

she's a very high damage torp nuker but she works fine in auto despite that

turbid olive
#

Ohh, I misunderstood then. I thought we needed tickets AND cubes to build lol.

old galleon
#

no worries

#

also, depending on how much you like senran kagura, you may consider saving cubes since that collab should be later this month

turbid olive
#

Done. No more builds except the 3 daily ones lol.

old galleon
#

Based

#

If she's all you wanted, just do one daily on the light banner

#

You break even with one of the daily rewards

#

So you maximize overall cube gain

#

You can still feel free to use any tickets you get though

True that. Glad I can rest easy with the RNG now. xd

Huh

So are Delusions basically stim-style visions?

runic ether

yeah more or less

some ppl can use a delusion better than others

did u luck into furina?

  • the raiden story quests

Sure did nyaruhodo

Since I dont have the guarantee anymore

before u ask, golden troupe is her set
hp/hp/crit rate
fav sword/fleuve cendre ferryman

glossy latch
#

Also got Charlotte

runic ether
#

charlotte is nice

glossy latch
#

Oh where do you farm golden troupe?

runic ether
#

same place u farm marechausse

#

fun fact: furina makes marechausse hunter a likely best in slot for any character on her team that on-fields

#

so wriothesley for instance

#

or if you are gonna play on-field bennett it can do well for him

glossy latch
#

Oh its BiS on Wrio anyway apparently

runic ether
#

yep

#

furina just makes it better on him

glossy latch
#

Do you use Furinas healing on Wrio then

#

Rather than her damage mode

runic ether
#

no

#

her healing mode is mostly for overworld exploration

glossy latch
#

Guess I still need a second healer then

#

Or a healer I guess

#

Since double hp drain is gonna be murder on the E uptime

runic ether
#

for wriothesley, bennett + his own healing is usually enough

#

though for that team in particular, c1 bennett will be a very welcome qol

glossy latch
#

Huh, I wonder if it counteracts the issue with bennetts healing

runic ether
#

yes actually

#

but u wont get bennetts buff consistently

#

until c1 at least

glossy latch
#

Because iirc Bennetts heals too much for Wrio

runic ether
#

also i believe that with furina + bennett

#

wrio may want an atk% goblet

#

since furina can overcap you on damage%

glossy latch
#

Theres a cap?

runic ether
#

not a cap more like. ur gonna go overboard and it gets diminishing returns

#

furina's buffs are fucking chonky and her personal damage with golden troupe is really good

#

whats your roster like right now actually?

#

wrio/xq/furina/charlotte may be a comfier and more consistent team for ya

glossy latch
#

Uhh

#

I have the 3 5* you know about

runic ether
#

tho unfort it makes blizzard strayer the better set for wrio in that team

glossy latch
#

And as for 4* the ones I havent mentioned are ...

Sayu, Mika, Chongyun and Dori?

runic ether
#

oh pog mika and sayu

#

both are solid with furina

glossy latch
runic ether
#

wrio/mika/bennett/furina

#

ur not caring about reactions here

glossy latch
#

Im guessing its just freeze the enemy and do big damage

runic ether
#

just buffing wrio's damage and helping furina hit the fanfare cap with mika's insane frontloaded healing

glossy latch
#

Or against a boss ... do big damage

runic ether
#

less so that it cares to freeze with mika bennett furina but more that it just buffs the shit out of normal attackers and atk scalers

#

how are u looking on weapons?

glossy latch
#

Lemme check

runic ether
#

mika bennett furina probably works with literally every character in the game btw

glossy latch
#

I think I have Favonius sword for Furina

runic ether
#

ik the game gives a free prototype sword + fav bow early and through some quests can get u some okayge weapons

glossy latch
#

Lets see, event catalyst, 2 rainslashers (havent refined yet), prototype rancour, dragons bane, stringless, prototype crescent, another stringless (Also not refined yet ig), favonius warbow, eye of perception, whiteblind, 2 the bell and sacrificial sword

runic ether
#

dbane is your best xiangling weapon

#

sac sword goes on xingqiu

#

whiteblind on noelle

glossy latch
#

Apparently its a generally good weapon on Xiangling? Either way Im using it nyaruhodo

runic ether
#

one of her bests

long tree
runic ether
#

it has a ton of em and the passive is all good for her

glossy latch
#

Neat

runic ether
#

stringless is good on fischl

glossy latch
#

But yeah, this was a good pull nyaruhodo

runic ether
#

indeed. no fav sword then?

glossy latch
#

I actually like her updated colour scheme more

#

I do have one

runic ether
#

ah okay

#

yea thats on furina

glossy latch
#

You mentioned it being Furina nyaruhodo

runic ether
#

bennett will use sapwood

glossy latch
#

Why did they change Furinas colour scheme btw

#

Do we know?

runic ether
#

yes

#

she swaps outfit for her ousia or pneuma modes

#

its a fontaine mechanic

glossy latch
#

Oh

#

Neat

runic ether
#

mostly for overworld

#

the tldr is her black outfit = dps, white outfit = healing

glossy latch
#

Black one is better tbqh

runic ether
#

and the only one u should be on 90% of the time

#

hmmm

#

lowkey, yelan would be a big upgrade to your account if there is any 5 star that could be "must pull" for your account its probably yelan or nahida

#

but yelan better

#

with yelan u can run mono hydro with mona furina xq yelan

glossy latch
#

Yelan is the gambler ye?

runic ether
#

gambler, spy, assassin, all around bad bitch

#

her most notable trait is that shes literally a 2nd xingaiu

#

*xingqiu

#

hp scaling but a 2nd xingqiu nontheless

long tree
#

When I'm in a "be a good genshin character" competition and my opponent is an off field hydro applier

runic ether
#

"off field hydro applier"

#

so everyone besides childe?

#

okay neuvillette isnt got any off field app

#

but he can do just like childe and pop a burst/skill for hydro at a decent rate

long tree
#

Hydro built different fr

runic ether
#

hydro is broken guys

#

mona on 4pc maiden's beloved and prototype amber, furina on fav sword and 4pc golden troupe, yelan on fav bow and emblem, xingqiu on sac sword and emblem

#

it really doesnt matter who you click normals on. enemies will die

long tree
#

Especially when the enemy has an element infusion that isn't geo

runic ether
#

whatever you do, do not get c6 yelan (she trivializes the game entirely)

#

yelan the only character in all of genshin arguably that only has good to broken constellations to pursue

#

all of them are strictly upgrades to her and she is already good

glossy latch
#

Also ngl

runic ether
#

i think her c2 is when she starts being better than xingqiu by a bit. and every con after just keeps going a bit until c6 where she becomes even stronger

glossy latch
#

Gathering upgrade material in genshin sucks

runic ether
#

dont u like the 48 hour wait period between materials?

long tree
#

Please wait until (insert day that's not today) to upgrade your talents/weapon

glossy latch
#

I dont even like finding the damn things lmao

runic ether
#

i found it hilarious that ppl who wanted to grind for lynney's upgrade mats day 1 could not bc his domain was locked to monday when his update was tuesday

long tree
#

That's hilarious

runic ether
#

jack shit u could do about it too bc 4.0 was the new domain for it so u literally couldnt get it

#

prior

glossy latch
#

Oh yeah those too

long tree
#

Simply should've played the beta smh

glossy latch
#

Fuck day-locked domains

runic ether
#

i personally dont mind it since its rare that u need to go through multiple days of day-locked domains

#

and storing condensed resin is good

glossy latch
#

Also man its weird to be doing stuff in Fontaine when I havent even done Sumeru yet

#

Or finished Inazuma

runic ether
#

with the new boss system too, u can even fight the boss for furina's upgrade mats now

#

without going through the quest

glossy latch
#

Ye, Im doing just that

runic ether
#

genshin's controversial new update allows u to fight actual whales keeping the game alive

glossy latch
#

... que?

runic ether
#

new boss is a whale (narwhal)

glossy latch
#

Oh?

#

Is it like an underwater boss?

mystic python
#

Would be maybe spoilers(?) to elaborate too much further on the whale

glossy latch
#

Fair enough

mystic python
#

Not really impactful spoilers but idk how much you want to avoid spoilers generally

glossy latch
#

Eh, for the Fontaine stuff thats fair I suppose

runic ether
#

hmmm

#

its not an underwater boss

glossy latch
#

I know mostly about Sumerus storyline

runic ether
#

oh i will say

#

fontaine's story

#

fucking crisp

#

i just did the archon quest

#

it was really good

glossy latch
#

Oh hey, got my standard banner 5*

#

Im not sure how good Jean is tho

long tree
#

I think misty said she's good with furina

runic ether
#

she is fucking amazing with furina yes

#

and just in general

#

she has a really good combo with bennett

#

its dubbed sunfire

mystic python
#

Jean is prob best standard pull if you have Furina

runic ether
#

bennett -> jean burst

glossy latch
#

Huh

#

Good luck then nyaruhodo

#

What makes her good with Furina btw?

mystic python
#

Strong healer on a good element

runic ether
#

so okay

#

with furina

#

u want a lot of frontloaded healing

#

at least, for speedrunning her

#

heal over time is still good if it heals the party

#

but in short, it makes healers like mika or charlotte really strong becuase they have that initial burst of healing

#

jean is special

#

her healing scales off her attack

#

her healing is frontloaded

#

she is anemo

#

this combo of things make her insanely powerful

glossy latch
#

Oh so she is basically a healer who is also not bad as a DPS?

runic ether
#

her personal damage is already good yes

#

her element is already great too

#

and she combos particularly well with furina

glossy latch
#

What makes Anemo good btw?

runic ether
#

viridescent venerer

#

the artifact set makes any element swirled by hydro also shred 40% resistance to those elements

glossy latch
#

Oh

#

That seems broken

mystic python
#

It's very strong

runic ether
#

40% shred for 10 seconds which means in most cases its 100% uptime

mystic python
#

Altho shredding resistances below 0 has halved value and most enemies have 10% resistances, it's still very good

runic ether
#

yeah its still a big damage boost for most teams

#

the best anemos are the ones who can provide additional support besides the vv shred

mystic python
#

Also swirl is just a really good reaction because it facilitates more reactions while also providing reaction damage itself

runic ether
#

kazuha for instance

#

also yeah

#

okay so

#

the reason sunfire is good

#

is bc jean's burst absorbs the pyro

#

so shes constantly doing pyro in her burst aura

#

so you can hydro more reliably

#

and vape

#

if an anemo has an on-field burst that holds the swirl element, it just basically becomes another source of that damage type on the field

glossy latch
#

Where do you farm venerer?

runic ether
#

in the same domain as maiden's beloved. its in mondstat

glossy latch
#

Oh

#

Thats convenient

runic ether
#

oh actually its on the border between mondstat and liyue

#

that strip of land to the west of dragonspine

glossy latch
#

AR 45 is when I want to start farming artifacts right?

mystic python
#

Ye, you get a guaranteed gold one then

runic ether
#

artifact farming is only worth once u hit ar45

#

hmmmm for your account

#

grind marechausse and golden troupe first and then use the spares in the strongbox for emblem of severed fate pieces

#

once u have that, the next priority becomes gilded dreams and deepwood memories and any spares can go for more emblem and viridescent venerer

#

once u have good pieces of these, u can go for other more niche strongboxes like noblesse oblige, tenacity of the milileth, thundering fury/crimson witch of flames/heart of depths/blizzard strayer, and ocean-hued clam

glossy latch
#

Do I put Wrio and Furina on the same team or different teams for now?

runic ether
#

same team i believe

glossy latch
#

Apparently Wrio, Furina, Charlotte and an anemo applier is good but Jean feels overkill lmao

runic ether
#

teams can be interesting

#

it is

#

u run kaeya instead of charlotte

#

u can do wrio/furina/kaeya/jean

#

and other team being bennett/xiangling/xingqiu/heizou

#

or sayu

glossy latch
#

Doesn't Kaeya somewhat conflict since he wants to swap in for his low cd?

runic ether
#

depends on ur preference

#

somewhat but your rotations for kaeya

#

can be extended quite easily

#

since his cds are short and wrio and kaeya can battery particles off each other

#

kaeya would want in that team, emblem of severed fate

#

or noblesse oblige

glossy latch
#

Granted I don't really have a lot of cryos and thr others I think are healers

#

No idea what Chongyun does actually

runic ether
#

cryo infusion

#

chongyun presses e and his skill infuses every character's normal attacks with cryo

#

his burst is just damage

#

hes pretty solid

#

but useless with catalyst and bows

#

old meta team used to be chongyun/xingqiu/bennett/sucrose or xiangling

#

vapemelt

#

its a solid team still

glossy latch
#

Ah

runic ether
#

he can still be useful but

glossy latch
#

Im guessing there's not really any 4* cryo buffers?

runic ether
#

just mika

#

and technically kaeya

glossy latch
#

Also Heizou would be the on-field character in team 2?

runic ether
#

yes

#

heizou would be driving xiangling and xingqiu's bursts in that team

#

its the traditional national team but instead of sucrose, trades heizou

#

heizou has really cool animations the only reason hes not more popular is that sucrose is often more likely to be c2+ for most people since heizou released

#

and fully built

glossy latch
#

Huh

#

Also mika I assume has the same issue of

#

Too much healing

runic ether
#

nope

#

he actually is just right for furina

#

he actually buffs normal attacking too

#

so hes got a particularly good niche for wrio

glossy latch
#

Could do mika furina wrio Jean then

runic ether
#

now that would be overkill healing

#

since jean and mika have frontloaded healing

glossy latch
#

Ironically would be stronger if I had c1 Wrio lmao

#

Ah

#

Guess that goes back to not having good anemo swirlers

runic ether
#

could maybe go sayu?

#

her healing may be overkill

#

nah u have good swirlers

#

the issue is the configuration with your other teammates is strange

#

ie: with your wrio, u would want shenhe cus u have jean

#

or if ur gonna use mika, use kazuha or sucrose

glossy latch
#

Also damn, poor Mona not fitting in anywhere

runic ether
#

mona can run in national actually

glossy latch
#

Ah so basically I have all the left halves of a team

runic ether
#

in the same way u run heizou

#

hmmmm

#

actually

#

mona is not bad with the 1st team hmmmge

#

see furina's energy requirements are actually quite high

#

double hydro solves this

#

ur missing out on cryo resonance there

#

but mona with prototype amber can do well in that team

#

and her burst can work off wrio's and hold the omen debuff for longer

#

i think the consideration here is that rotations become weird for sure

#

the alternative is doing double hydro double pyro

#

mona xingqiu, xiangling bennett

#

does really well as a team too since the pyro app + hydro app kind of match well and mona's omen buff is comparable to vv shred

glossy latch
#

Oh yeah the whole apply cryo, switch to Mona, burst, switch back and go to town bit

runic ether
#

yep

#

the omen buff is now stuck

#

rot would go

glossy latch
#

Meaning Wrio gets to do one or two rotations in it

#

I'll try some of these out

#

I barely remember what Heizou does tbh

runic ether
#

wrio n1 -> jean e -> furina eq -> wrio n1 -> jean q -> mona eq -> wrio combos

runic ether
glossy latch
#

I see

#

I'll just try some teams out I suppose

runic ether
#

yeah wrio furina mona jean is strong

#

can replace mona for kaeya

#

could do mika sayu

#

and then a 2nd team would be national

#

ur choice of heizou or mona

#

could also do lisa, yaoyao, xingqiu, sayu

#

hyperbloom is a strong archetype and xq gives you the ir to not need to do a ton of dodging

#

oh fun i forgot about it but. u could do mono pyro heizou

#

xiangling bennett thoma heizou

glossy latch
#

What'd be the goal?

runic ether
#

damage

#

xiangling and heziou's personal damage through swirls and pyro swirls do a ton of damage with a sturdy shield from thoma and some healing from bennett

#

this would free up xingqiu for a third team potentially

#

or for wrio

#

triple hydro wrio is kinda real

#

but triple hydro in general is just kind of real

#

fischl lisa yaoyao dendro mc for aggravate or xingqiu for hyperbloom

glossy latch
#

Don't you lose out on damage without having vaporize to work off of?

runic ether
#

collei could also work

runic ether
#

xiangling bennett to be precise

#

without bennett she is a lot more energy hungry

#

and sacrifices damage for her er requirements

glossy latch
#

What an odd game Genshin is

runic ether
#

p much every character is viable in the end

#

it just depends on who u wanna use

#

ive seen dori clear floor 12 of spiral abyss

#

and shes widely regarded as the "worst character"

#

u can also make a combination of characters and archetypes work well

runic ether
#

mono hydro with mona cleared

#

team

#

ignore my mona artifacts i forgot to properly gear her

#

same with jean tbh

#

i just got lazy and didnt give her the atk goblet or crit helm

#

fun fact: my yelan has officially entered top 16% yelan

Why is ascending characters so time-consuming in Genshin >.>

torn harbor
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

I gave up on genshin partially because of that

runic ether
glossy latch
#

Btw whats Sapwood?

#

The weapon you mentioned for Bennett

simple wind
#

Welp the Symphogear gacha might be ending soon
They literally gave Hibiki and Miku new forms named after the game

runic ether
#

sapwood blade

glossy latch
#

Oh its a crafted one?

runic ether
#

yep

#

super tldr on it

#

its technically not a real weapon

#

but u sure can craft it

#

but in any case, sapwood is pretty great for bennett since it gives energy recharge as the substat

#

at max level 30.6% energy recharge

#

and its base stat is 565 str

#

making it one of the strongest swords and tied for the strongest by the numbers f2p sword

#

and the raw sword + bennetts own raw attack (unmodified by any substat) are the only things that matter for bennett's buff

#

the reason its preferred is for the er

glossy latch
#

I see I see

runic ether
#

the passive effect it has is also really good in very specific teams

#

its a useable sword for more than just bennett btw cus of tht

#

when u trigger burning, quicken, aggravate, spread, bloom, hyperbloom, or burgeon, u create a leaf of consciousness around the character for 10s. picking up the leaf grants 60 elemental master for 12s with a cooldown of 20s between leaves. leaves do not stack

#

but its a free way to pass some additional er to the main character

#

in example: you are playing lisa, dendro mc, xingqiu, and yaoyao

#

xq clicks e on an enemy and dendro mc uses skill + q and creates a leaf

#

yaoyao comes in to drop her creature and then xq bursts

#

lisa can now pick up the leaf and get a buff to her elemental mastery for free to deal even more damage through aggravates and hyperblooms

glossy latch
#

Btw what does Elemental Mastery affect?

runic ether
#

okay so the super tldr

#

it affects certain reactions

mystic python
#

If you have the game open, it'll say how exactly it affects each reaction's damage in the character stats screen

runic ether
#

for electro-charged, burning, and swirl, elemental mastery increases the reaction damage. for melt and vaporize, it adds an additional damage multiplier to the attacks that trigger the reaction. for crystalize with geo, em increases the damage absorbtion of shields created by crystalize. and then dendro

#

works similarly to vape and melt

#

uhhh basic formula for em is vape and melt are 2.78 x em/em + 1400 x 100% = x

#

for hyperbloom and burgeon its 16 x em/em + 2000 x 100% = y

#

and for aggravate and spread its 5 x em/em + 1200 x 100% = z

#

the super short of these formulas basically means: for vape and melt, its mostly a bonus. you should make sure to get the additional elemental mastery yes but it doesnt has to be a focus

#

for aggravate/spread its more important but it shouldnt compromise a strong build with lower em for one that is decent but has a bit more em

#

and for hyperbloom/burgeon, its the most important thing

glossy latch
#

Hmmm

#

Fire + Fire gives you 25% attack bonus right?

#

Is it additive or multiplicative?

mystic python
#

ATK% adds that percent of ur base attack to your total attack

#

You can see base atk in the stat screen, it should show x + y next to your total attack, x being the base atk

#

Nvm doesn't show next to a total, but 25% atk would take 25% of 1024 and add it to the green number (so I'd have 256 atk added to the green number)

runic ether
#

yep

#

my xingqiu's base atk is 1436

#

with pyro res

#

it becomes 1616

#

also lol

#

i may end up pulling on haran and staff banner in the 2nd half

#

staff for xiangling, haran for xingqiu

#

i see no issue with this

mystic python
runic ether
#

oh yeah my bad

#

total attack normally

#

is 1436

#

his total atk after pyro res is 1616

#

anyways if i do go for that i basically bank that arlecchino's weapon banner wont suck and that her bis wont be too far ahead of soss

#

and i already do kinda have too many swords anyways

#

2 lofi and a freedom sworn and then haran before i ever get a 5 star polearm

mystic python
#

I'm waiting for the off chance they stick Arle with Furina's rerun

runic ether
#

surely, ill lose a 50/50 to pjws or skyward spear

#

that would be nice

#

we know archons frequently rerun about 4 patches in

mystic python
#

Prob not happening cos it seems too nice, but they've done nice weapon banners before

runic ether
#

only thing leakers have confirmed for arlecchino besides a potential friendly spar with her as the 2nd world boss for fontaine is that shes gonna be 4.6

runic ether
#

haitham + xiao ran in 3.4 and then had tao + yelan

#

that was back to back to back great weapon banners

mystic python
#

Ye Yelan + Hu Tao got me straight onto the weapon banner

runic ether
#

i was really gonna go for it but yelan stole my primos

mystic python
#

Homa has always had pretty decent ones, was paired with Elegy previously as well

runic ether
#

the 4.0 1st half banner was really good

#

fgm + aqua are both top tier bows on a lot of different bow characters

mystic python
#

That one also too good to resist as a Ganyu main

#

Esp. since I missed Aqua on the Homa one

glossy latch
#

4 patches huh

#

That should be enough time to save up right

runic ether
#

plenty

mystic python
#

Conservative estimate is 65 pulls per patch

#

If you do dailies + the limited events

runic ether
#

4 patches is enough to nearly guarantee a character
