[viscid cove]

so just deleting messages then?

[paper warren]

Vino you have the perms to delete them if you see them

[teal pier]

Yeah deleting them is really the most we can do

[viscid cove]

ye but im wondering if u guys do anything else other than deleting them lol

just to make sure that ik so we can stick to some rules

[paper warren]

Yeah no there's nothing that we can really do if there's a random scam message inside of a channel other than to delete it because the entire server is public and perms for messages are left to p0

There's no set rule except for if you see a scam message like somebody trying to give away nitro or whatever if you give them their credit card number then you just delete it

[viscid cove]

aight then. instruction received

[paper warren]

Now let them all burn in hell

[viscid cove]

[untold rain]

i have no idea what is going on anymore

just when i thought the world quest is almost over, ||the new seperate map expands into an even bigger one||

please tell me this isnt ||enkanomiya sized||

i just want natlan to be over man

so tired of it

[tawdry blade]

It's not even that big

But they did a good job at making it look big

[untold rain]

okay thats good to hear at least

is the lore anything relevant, or just more self contained natlan stuff?

[untold rain]

how is natlan not self contained

when the night kingdom is literally just in natlan

things that happened in other regions at least feel like they are gonna be brought up again in the future

natlan doesnt feel like that, at least to me

like none of this really matters

capitano and shade of death, seelie lore,moons, sure

but aside from that

feels like a filler arc tbh

but i also admit i am biased and just want to go back to sumeru and kheanriah lore so theres that

sumeru to me personally felt like the only story arc that mattered lmao

[untold rain]

the narzissenkreuz quest line as a whole was much more interesting to me than all of natlan

maybe my point is just that i dislike the region

sumeru feels like we are for sure going back and important story beats will happen there

i dont see that happening with natlan once the gnosis gets taken

i cant put my finger on why exactly natlan feels so detached and fillery

i could blame neuvilette for giving me false expectations

"nations of dragons" more like nation of dinosaurs

i excepted more sovereign lore than we actually got i guess

and more tie ins with celestia

[slender haven]

We got a good deal of Nibelung lore in the new artifact set ig

[untold rain]

still havent finished that one yet from the latest patch

but i am not as hyped to even do so in the first place

compared to lets say 3.6

[slender haven]

Natlan's lore with Xiuhcoatl, Kukul, Och-Kan, and Xbalanque is all absolute peak, some of the best stuff Genshin has put out genuinely
But then modern Natlan lore is just kinda lame. The tribes are pretty superficial and have next to no depth outside of their aesthetics and have no interesting relationships with each other.

[turbid sentinel]

event act 2

people who do this actually rile me up

disgusting

[spark anchor]

Hoyo cooked with the volcano region man, it was so good

[spark anchor]

It was perfect in every way, this is exactly what I wanted from the world quest

[spark anchor]

I was doubting them because I felt that the ochkanatlan wq was a tad too short, my apologies hoyo, I wasn't familiar with your game

Btw do we know what the shattered sky in the ancient city is? Why is it like that?

Wait so that's how they broke into the place? It looks so ominous

True, they were building it up for this moment

Next stop nod krai

Ok if you know about it then don't spoil me but I feel like we have ways to go to reach mare jivari No new natlan region in sight as far as I've seen, I don't check any story spoilers for the next updates

The in-game info said that people spotted a monster the size of a mountain in mare jivari really intriguing stuff

[narrow ivy]

hi sorry for interupting but do we know who the other shadows are? i know one of them is skirk but what about the other one

[spark anchor]

The entire area is shrouded in mystery I got another question, why did people suddenly forget about the island that was surrounded by the fog in version 5.2?

Bro has an entire list 😭

[spark anchor]

That should be dahlia? Look it up

[narrow ivy]

ok cool thanks

[spark anchor]

Bro has the entire lore memorized

True that

[cinder path]

Do we have a continuation quest after the world quest with lil guy

Everyone sayong hes leaving

But bro is still with me

[tawdry blade]

Must complete all the WQ in Natlan

Include the small one/puzzle

[tawdry blade]

No,he left for real

Just like Narci questline

[wintry sapphire]

SIGEWINNE ||DRANK HER TEACHER?????||

i gotta do the story quests more often...

[tawdry blade]

This channel is dead as hell

[slender haven]

I'm just taking a break from Genshin rn

[slender haven]

That's cool

[tawdry blade]

Skirk burst name is still not confirmed

We only know the basic

[hasty narwhal]

Just like his role in Ragnarok, mister world end bringer do be annihilating

[tawdry blade]

You can't say it is confirm when all we have is text and no official gameplay/in game image

[tawdry blade]

I mean,does it really matter when a lot of thing can be called those name.

[hasty narwhal]

wth

where does that come from

[tawdry blade]

Me

[hasty narwhal]

Well if she compliments its looks I wouldn't say she's fatphobic

[tawdry blade]

What happened to this channel

[tawdry blade]

Or they don't have it.

Honestly,most of the leak seem more like speculation with extra flavors

Leaker can look at her artifact set and make up her ability, they can look at Escoffier and theorise her kit, not only that her signature seem too busted, 33 CRate and 608 Atk with CDmg passive

All they have for Dahlia was "he is hydro and buff Atk speed"

[hasty narwhal]

favoritism among leakers, only talk about what they like

can't complain I guess 😔

[hasty narwhal]

This is so funny

Also it being a star devourer fated to eat the dying stars and contain the memories of civilisations and "shush the tears" or something
If that analogy is true, that whale as of now should be a juvenille and probably has the same IQ as a 2 year old which is probably why Skirk is so tired of its BS because it only follows its instinct to play eat and sleep.

Maybe childe woke it up too early and now Skirk has been tasked to keep it busy until Surtalogi is ready to use it

the one I saw felt like an AI fanfiction

I just remember the one about her popping at liyue's restaurant and I was "alright"

I mean Kaeya wandering around makes sense for his character
Skirk who hates the surface and wants nothing to do with it, randomly appearing in Liyue of all places is weirder to me

but who knows

yes but she said in the AQ that she had no interest in the surface and if she had something to tell us she would tell Childe
I guess they retconned it

Nah it's probably the one I saw then and I remember it

Yeah sadly it's that one

probably seeing how Hoyo has been doing recently

[tawdry blade]

Dirty Abyss bootlicker want Traveler 🥀

Sinner+Traveler = regular human

So true

[hasty narwhal]

the more we advance the story the more the theory of teyvat being in a blackhole sounds believable

Between Aether and Lumine unable to escape the pull and the abyss time distortion, it does make you wonder

but only thing countering it are the moons, there should be no moons

[hasty narwhal]

it was an old theory on the subreddit

I can try to find the post if you want

[tawdry blade]

People fr think black hole can be created like that

Narwhal would be pulled inside if it was an actual black hole and the entire world would be destroyed,it is the same misconception as some dark magic in fantasy anime.

[hasty narwhal]

Narwhal was pulled inside by surtalogi tho, but yeah, I didn't really think about it because blackholes don't really leave things "existing" once past the event horizon, nether would turning teyvat into a star actually save them from it.
But the theory stimmed from the time dilation event of the abyss, and the namecard of the travelers that mention them being pulled by the gravity of teyvat despite them being light itself, and so far only blackholes are known to capture light.

[tawdry blade]

Yk,it could just be metaphorically for "I don't know why but I feel like I was pull to this planet"

Another namecard also confirmed we were basically"summoned"

[hasty narwhal]

so profound so demue

[tawdry blade]

But let be real here,the only reason it look like black hole because black hole in fiction look cool

[hasty narwhal]

Tbf Hoyo has used blackholes A LOT in their games

[tawdry blade]

Even Huizlt look like a blackhole

[hasty narwhal]

Mister IX from HSR where Aventurine just walk in and get "fished out" by a knight in shining armor is still hilarious to me

[tawdry blade]

Space ,Star and Blackhole look visually pleasant,can't blame them

[hasty narwhal]

true

[tawdry blade]

What ??? Are you talking about

Oh that one,isn't that just what Traveler see?

I don't think it is a real place

Book of Revelation,we can enter by meditate,the melusine was the other who saw a different vision and the rifhound was a dog in her eyes

As for why we can see Chasm fountain,maybe it is just related to our vision

I think it is just what the person who made the book saw.

Someone who called John

Oh no

Wrong one

Sorry

Let me look at the correct one

*I accidentally open religion book *

It someone who knows Jakob,likely someone from Narzissenkreuz

I suppose this is what the writer saw back then.

Considering traveler wasn't in Teyvat during that age,I think it make perfect sense why his view is like that

[hasty narwhal]

I forgot, was the book Jacob's? didn't caterpillar end in it

[tawdry blade]

1. to look cool,similar to Skirk entrance
2. Probably just something from the abyss/other world

Nibelung is immune to it though? Only the sovereign were effected. As for your question,Sinner could experiment on themselves, similar to how Dainsleif appearance isn't as bad as Capitano, because he has his own way

Also I forgot about Sumeru desert do have similar portal but with some spike. So I think it is Abyssal portal,not NarWhal

Yes

[tawdry blade]

My theory for NodKrai plot is.

Traveler will join the LightKeeper as for why, they might want Traveler power and help, while Paimon will be taken away by Frostmoon Scion.

Now,this could go many directions
-After losing Paimon,Traveler have to join the LightKeeper to help and gather information.
-Traveler join neither,but will try to rescue Paimon in the same patch (because I don't think Paimon will be gone for multiple patch as a mascot of the game)
Paimon will probably be used as a weapon against The Fatui , perhaps she can activate some sort of ancient weapon they possessed (her identity as ||fragment of PO||)

Main plotline would be Fatui vs Frostmoon while LightKeeper have to try to keep the peace and defended against the abyss(the hunt). Perhaps,the Fatui want something from the Frostmoon and the reason Tsarista command them to return to NodKrai is because the time is ticking. Knowing the appearance of Ronova definitely spook the Fatui

Trying to revive this channel 😔, we will see in next 3 days, assuming the teaser/update will show anything major

But I am still 100% sure the plot would be a war between 2 faction and one is trying to keep the peace.

[tawdry blade]

It is possible they might have the same goal but we know Fatui plan are always extreme and it is not a good thing for sure

[tawdry blade]

Surely

Well,we do have 6 days left until 5.6 ,maybe

[tawdry blade]

Just watch a short video and damn,I did not notice that Hutao burst smack the soul out of living being

Even Arlecchino soul got smack

Hutao is truly the best girl in liuye

Interesting enough,their soul color is the same as the one we seen

[tawdry blade]

https://youtu.be/rNQKs5I7f5E?si=ZeSZnqxxdAgKRyFI

Doctor Strange ahh effect

[tawdry blade]

Most of them seem sketch, and I still believe NodKrai exploration mechanic is mirror teleportation

[hasty narwhal]

apparently only 1 , 2 and 4 (and undecided on the last one) are true

everything else is fanfic

[tawdry blade]

Gatekeeping Mare Jivari 😔

[tawdry blade]

5.8 would still be hype with summer map anyway

[tawdry blade]

I know,just saying they can still add mare in 5.7, summer in 5.8 and it would still be hype like usual ,could even be GAA 3

[tawdry blade]

Yes

[tawdry blade]

Ever since I read preload 5.1 story,it not worth it anymore,since there are piece of information that was missing

[hasty narwhal]

He's blond???

[tawdry blade]

Yes

[sterile marsh]

my hope of a tall bulky bearded Varka is falling to pieces

[tawdry blade]

Thought on Genshin: Thousand Planets? Do you think it is part two of Genshin or a different game.

[tawdry blade]

That writing is fire

[tawdry blade]

Sheercold immunity

[tawdry blade]

Yes

Her kit is literally Arlecchino with Mavuika ult system

Even her ult description look like this attack

[tawdry blade]

Can't believe we actually get to see his hair and face

Also Mare Jivari Immortal monster mentioned

It is likely it will be the World Boss,in lore perspective, because it is immortal,it won't die for sure,it make sense as a boss

[lean bay]

bruh fucking durin turned into human

actual wingss

[tawdry blade]

Gold fucking devoured Ruler of Life,somehow (but she is still alive)

Make sense for someone who want to create life

The Heart of Naberius is an artifact discovered by Albedo and his master, Rhinedottir, deep in the heart of a dungeon. Shortly after discovering it, Rhinedottir disappeared, leaving behind a message for Albedo to uncover the "truth and meaning of this world."

So just like the rest of the Shade they just poof out of existence and Rhinedottir found SoL and devoured her, confirming Rhinedottir didn't really beat a shade,but I can see some people who have no idea what a "heart of niberius" would think she beat one

[tawdry blade]

He better be able to fly

[leaden burrow]

AUNT BARBIE BAHAHAHAHAHA

[tawdry blade]

We are gonna team up with "Enjou" and explore Mare for sure

still no skirk gacha art leak

[tawdry blade]

One more Shade

I swear it gonna turn out Venti devoured Istaroth

[tawdry blade]

Could be, because her and albedo found her heart before arriving in Mondstadt

Also why would she have a heart,and it's an artifact? Did she got that weak after that war

Having ability to create life mean she isn't a fighter so I guess she is probably the weakest in fighting unlike the rest

Court part one or two

I swear he doesn't even talk that much in part one

[minor saddle]

Anyone muted in escof story quest?

[plain bison]

Wow Varka looks like Gepard

Lmao

His colors too… yeah he’s anemo

[lone sable]

Paragolism wasn’t that good

[plain bison]

His emblem is just a modified anemo symbol with a spear at the middle

[tawdry blade]

Frostmoon Scion is also the same too

[hasty narwhal]

I can't belive they made Skirk design even weirder

like I'm glad for the black form and the face rework so she doesn't look 14, but how are those boobs holding??

Couldn't they keep the outfit she had in the AQ

[weary oriole]

why arew you looking there in the first place

[tawdry blade]

You are telling her new design is weirder?

Her old one didn't even cover more of her area

Boob cover is less but I won't complain

[hasty narwhal]

Because I would hate to fight with such low support on the chest area

[hasty narwhal]

I do, i think the first one felt more complete

[weary oriole]

just look at zzz, you will be mortified

[hasty narwhal]

I don't play ZZZ and ain't interested

[weary oriole]

i said look, I ain't ever wanted to play it either

[tawdry blade]

There are like 3 problem with her old one,face,hair and panty
New one has one problem for you,which is the boobs

[weary oriole]

real

[hasty narwhal]

Good

[tawdry blade]

Eh,number look good,just not as crazy as Mavuika

She isn't f2p friendly that is for sure

[hasty narwhal]

the heck was wrong with the hair and having no leg coverage is nothing new that didn't shock me at all

[tawdry blade]

The hair angle look weird that why

They spread it more in the new one

Look at the left side

It just look weird to me and her big ass eyes make it worst

[tawdry blade]

I wasn't talking about leg coverage,it is about her torso

[hasty narwhal]

I'm sorry I fail to see what was wrong with it, it had motifs like the whale on her torse the new one is just a frilly dress and ribbons

I guess in the end it's a matter of tastes

[tawdry blade]

Alright,it is okay

[smoky breach]

Albedo during his trial basically

[gleaming sinew]

||who has the best fit||

[tawdry blade]

Venti

Bard is cool

[smoky breach]

Hell yeah whatever that means

[brave sigil]

HOW OP RHINNEDOTR THAT SHE CAN ||DEFEAT AND EAT ONE OF THE 4 SHADES AND BECOME ONE||

[tawdry blade]

She didn't defeated her

[tawdry blade]

Rhinedottir ate Niberius 50CV goblet 😭

[tawdry blade]

Dainsleif skill

[tawdry blade]

I really doubt we will ever get quantum,Skirk is likely a public testing for how the player react to her not using a completely different "element"

So Quantum and Light character will only have unique/otherworldly visual effect like Skirk

Traveler power should be light or some sort and yet it created fire explosion ,so whatever it is,Light Traveler might be hoyo finally let us switch element but the element is visually better than old one

[tawdry blade]

Yeah,also hoyo can't turn back now,it would be unfair if they actually added new element and Skirk is cryo

Only the face

Yes but the person themselves said the below are all fanmade

That guy just repost what other leaker said usually

But his skill symbol look like Wild Hunt spiral DNA symbol

This is probably Khemia

Nah,she is probably like albedo,maybe she will buff Geo

Wild Hunt could be Dainsleif brother doing

Oh,with title like that,not surprise he will be in 6.7~ Traveler story

Loom of Fate gonna take some time

I believe she will be a support,since we don't have geo dedicated support for 2 years now

3 years soon

Make her decrease 90% geo resistance

A bit too overpower.

But let see how they handle NodKrai kit

It's possible but the way they made her passive seem like they want her to be in full hydro cryo team

It could make electro good as well so not a bad thing

[hasty narwhal]

That would be surprising if they really don't implement light/dark elements when their other games have quantum, imaginary and elements + light /dark is basic in fantasy settings. But yeah, I admit with skirk I'm scared they will just never actually pull it through

Anyway I hope skirk sales are bad

https://tenor.com/view/who-dat-snoop-gif-15116696

[tawdry blade]

Not happening

[glass hazel]

can you ask about Skirk here?

Or am I in the wrong channel again

[tawdry blade]

Sure

[glass hazel]

nicee

I'm just wondering do you need Escoffier or Shenhe to pair with Skirk?

Cuz I have neither =))

[tawdry blade]

Escoffier

[glass hazel]

Bro

wth

[tawdry blade]

Haha sorry

[glass hazel]

I've seen a childe version I think

[tawdry blade]

Anyway,pull for Escoffier is obligated

[tawdry blade]

It is,just edited

[glass hazel]

that's is hilaruous

[glass hazel]

danggg

does Skirk make Frozen team relevant again?

[tawdry blade]

Not really

[glass hazel]

Hmm, I see

[tawdry blade]

It is just there, nothing special

Maybe stop enemy from moving is cool but it don't help

[glass hazel]

Tbh I already have 2 team prepared so now I'm just rolling for who I find fun to play. So I am wondering between pulling Yae Miko or Skirk. For yae I already have all the characters needed for her team. But Skirk on the other hand I don't have that much, I do have Kazuha, Furina and Layla which I think works

[glass hazel]

I see

might need to skip escoffier for now and pull her later

[tawdry blade]

If you care more about how fun they are to play,then you shouldn't worry about skirk dmg

Do you have Mona?

[glass hazel]

yea actually I do

[tawdry blade]

Mona,Furina and a healer can work

[glass hazel]

yea I don't mind the damage too much, but ofc I do want to use her in endgame content so havin a viable team is still fairly important

[glass hazel]

I see

I have Jean :)))

might pull for Xilonen in the future

cuz I accidentally got her sig

[tawdry blade]

Yeah,xilonen would be better, you don't have to worry about skirk 3 hydro/cryo passive because just like Neuvillete,his passive is useless now

[glass hazel]

bruh

well I mean.... yeaa they are kinda similar in this case

Furina buff does balance out the loss of the 3rd stack right?

[tawdry blade]

Yes

You mean skirk or nei

[glass hazel]

both tbh

[tawdry blade]

Not sure about skirk

[glass hazel]

well I already know it does for neuvi

yeaa

we'll wait I guess

[tawdry blade]

But you can wait for her final version

[glass hazel]

yeeaa

but overall her attack effects are wild

absolutely amazing lookin

wait Escoffier heals too right?

[tawdry blade]

Yes

[glass hazel]

which part of her kit? And does it heal the full team or just the one on field

[tawdry blade]

Her ultimate, on field heal but if you overheal,she will saved it and when you swapped,it will heal the new on field

[glass hazel]

I see

I mean I do have Furina C2

so that would be enough

but it just might be risky

you know, getting hit by a singular atk :))

[tawdry blade]

Iframe all of them

[glass hazel]

does Skirk scales off ATK based on the leaks?

[glass hazel]

I am bad at the game :))

I mean I do play on mobile but I don't it'll be any better on PC

[tawdry blade]

@glass hazel fact checked again,if overheal,she heal the entire party

[glass hazel]

dang

nvm then

Still I think I would skip her for now

get Skirk first and Escoffier later I think

[tawdry blade]

Ye,not bad idea

[glass hazel]

cuz she'll rerun before Skirk

[glass hazel]

Oh ok, thx

[tawdry blade]

This channel will never be the same without Amgelus and Jenn

[tawdry blade]

Who know

I don't think Mare Jivari is truly ready

So no story planned yet

Or incomplete I may say

[stable dove]

I hope mare Jivari is peak..it’s the main thing I was looking forward to since natlan started💔

[tawdry blade]

That what if has 1% chance of happening

[tawdry blade]

I feel like vedr wouldn't be playable because he is Dainsleif enemy atm

it isn't about the trailer ,it is that Dainsleif is way more important

And I know some random character is a 5* but

[lone sable]

I think I realize why im not liking genshins storytelling since like natlan

there’s a huge gap between the amount of energy the newer characters have and the production value that actually goes into quests

the cutscenes have improved and there’s more special animations but there’s still a large gap that needs to be filled to make it feel better

everyone still moves and react like robots

and whenever a special sound or emphasis on motion needs to be made it’s just not there or half assed

this stuff didn’t matter as much before natlan because the game valued its character complexity more than now but escoffier and a bunch of the natlan cast are too bubbly for the game to handle

[wild steeple]

That Paralogism character with a geo vision looked cool I sure hope he becomes playable soon I bet he'll be broken after seeing his cutscenes

[wild steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/hmm-gif-9355968

Wait what, dain in 5.7? Fight alongside?

[lone sable]

The casual spoiler drop is crazy

[wild steeple]

I wasn't aware spoilers channel included future patches

[lone sable]

My guy we’re in 5.6

[tawdry blade]

Isn't it confirmed Thoma is from Mondstadt already? So his mother is in KoF isn't so strange

[hasty narwhal]

those thumbnails are getting crazierlmao

[hasty narwhal]

Damn they really are not letting skirk Solo

[ashen ocean]

And can even demand citlali

[slender haven]

I just hate them

It used to just be a love-hate relationship
Now it's just hate

[stable dove]

They just taking more time to make it peak tbh

[hasty narwhal]

I stare respectfully

but yeah I see the similarities

[tawdry blade]

Seem weak for someone who can created life and the entire system ,but the visual is close I guess

[hasty narwhal]

who created life?

[tawdry blade]

PO

Anyway,I hope people don't actually make crack theory of some visual

[tawdry blade]

Visual connection don't mean much though,both game are improving it visual ,Skirk ult is similar but it is not red theme

Even his weapon look like Pyro Sovereign sword but slightly different,not because they are connected but their theme is similar (sun)

[hasty narwhal]

oh did it finally drop?

**Polar Star:
**
"Oft have we walked in the moonless night."
"Oft have we trudged through the gilded sands."
"Oft have we felt piercing enmity in the dark,"
"And oft have we dreamed of lovers in distant hometowns."

Skirk's signature

"Some among you are doomed to wander through moonless nights, drinking bitter tears that cannot revive fallen kin;"
"Some are destined to trudge through gilded deserts, never knowing the warmth of earnest love or affection;"
"Some must cower in darkness pierced by hostility, awaiting the ocean tides to conclude their melody as promised;"
"Some are condemned to roam dreamlike paths, idly lingering in stagnant foreign lands for meetings never to come."

Yep there's gonna be more lore with those two. Seele vs PO 🤝 Fatui vs Celestia

[native scarab]

thoughts and prayers for this not being fake for 5.8

[tawdry blade]

Why would Aihaitham follow him ,he literally didn't care about what Kaveh did the entire hangout

[hasty narwhal]

4 stars getting story quests now

[tawdry blade]

5.8 5* is his mother

[tawdry blade]

I know that

[tawdry blade]

Character is in their own namecard but use different visual

[tawdry blade]

Yeah but she is still in her own namecard

With most of the details too

[native scarab]

See i thought this was weird but didnt kaeya amber and Lisa have one??

[hasty narwhal]

^
also it's a weird point to start giving 4 stars story quest

[tawdry blade]

Columbina become the moon god ,Truly my goat

Also I think she is a fae not Seelie

I hope NodKrai is back to usual schedule,x.2 is the end of AQ,not like 5.3

[tawdry blade]

Their symbol look like they have 4 feathers or wing(?),Columbina also has them but 6 iirc.

Maybe it's wing but super small, because fae in other fiction is elves with wings(fairy)

Also,leaker said 5.8 will have new character but not water girl and Skirk best support

These leaker gotta be patient and not leak anything they just heard

[hasty narwhal]

I'm so confused

what leaks were real

[rough agate]

Sus leaks about susty in 5.7
It's still not confirmed but it's quite possible

[tawdry blade]

||Dori|| is so op

[tawdry blade]

Even Alice was impressed by her

[hasty narwhal]

https://tenor.com/view/dory-finding-nemo-fight-me-do-ya-got-a-problem-gif-15001455141244949658

Omg you're so right

Also lmao v5 nerfing her passive atk bonus but boosting her c2 and c6 atk bonus to make people whale. Business men hoyo is

[hasty narwhal]

10% decrease in passive atk gained and no other buff outside of cons is to me a nerf nontheless, or was there another passive boosted to compensate I didn't see?

[hasty narwhal]

oh I didn't see that in the note update

ok yeah that's a good thing for her

[hasty narwhal]

I'm gonna wait to try it out in her trial once she's out to see how I feel about it

I admit I like doing solo runs a lot, which is why sometimes I go for C6 for some characters, and she seems to not be designed to be able to solo anything because of her cryo/hydro limitation, so if I do like how she plays I'll go for c2 and stop there at best.

People expected a lot more from her which is mostly tartaglia's backstory's fault for painting her as a lone warrior living in the abyss so people expected her to be dainsleif level and rn from numbers she seems a bit underwhelming.
But she's probably a tease of what nodkrai will need and shine more there than now.

I do admit I'm a bit disappointed at the no solo capability (as it looks to be rn) because she was portrayed as a lone warrior so it feels weird I can solo abyss with arle but not her, but who knows maybe that new buff allowing her to ignore limitations and shield will change that

Yeah that's good, if I can't solo her, maybe I can make a cute Tartaglia/skirk duo runs

I did pull coffee for her anyway so I'll get C0 no matter what

[tawdry blade]

Yes

[hasty narwhal]

is it the bobaros (idk the name i still haven't done mondstadt quest) witch?

[tawdry blade]

No

Well,maybe ...

We only know 5.8 is a lady

[hasty narwhal]

time for random chara number 45875 😔

[tawdry blade]

Considering 6.x leak have only Alice and Nicole(?)

[hasty narwhal]

True

maybe that witch will introduce a taste of the rest of the hexel rooster

[tawdry blade]

Feel like if she was playable,she would be Mona but easy to use

Mona Burst increase damage taken from your character so maybe she does something similar

[hasty narwhal]

plot leaks seem less reliable each patch

[hasty narwhal]

hmm wonder if that's the herald again

[hasty narwhal]

oh the sword

I tried to forget skirk's story leak my b

[hasty narwhal]

yeah I know, it's just in the myth it's the name of the sword so I call him the sword

[tawdry blade]

I remember what quest I did before,then I watch YouTube to see which one I don't recognize

The final one for me was in Ochkanatlan,near a shore with bubblebeast from Fontaine

[hasty narwhal]

are those from a trusted leaker because some sound very sus

Columbina being stronger than mavuika then mean she was a human all along too

[tawdry blade]

Columbina DOES NOT look like a human at all,what is the leaker smoking

Half human is still not human(sorry about the false reply,Risa)

[hasty narwhal]

no worries

[tawdry blade]

Anyway,seem like Columbina will be Traveler archon friend in NodKrai(since there is no archon)?

Still don't know why would the whale be in NodKrai

Why are we still antagonizing PO

[tawdry blade]

It is easy to guess

Like VARESA0507 or something

[tawdry blade]

Wow the skirk story leak is real

Traveler in fact have his soul something something

[tawdry blade]

[tawdry blade]

If leak is true,I'm afraid that Skirk will fight Surtalogi at some point

[hasty narwhal]

Surtr catching strays in every mythology inspired adaptation

https://tenor.com/view/klasik-clasik-clasic-gif-25398314

[hasty narwhal]

My goat

tbf didn't surtalogi say in skirk's profile quote that 'if only love for another would be enough to heal the world it would be great' or smt

oh wait no it was another narator

[hasty narwhal]

Is the second boss the turtle legend boss in overworld?

it's been a while since I fought it but the mechanics sound familiar

I'm excited, I'll probably never coop tho

[tawdry blade]

Isn't that 6.0?

Maybe I am confused because there are another female in 6.0

With that male

Also if she is a high priestess from Frostmoon(given her special electro charge title, moonshock) she might be more story relevant unlike Emilie

[tawdry blade]

Lol,it is VA pairing ,not canon

Moon God leak sound like Furina Gravity kit back then

[tawdry blade]

Heavily STC

Part of Nod Krai Roadmap:

6.0
First Half: Electro Male - Electro-Charged Carry
Second Half: Geo Female - Crystallize Carry

6.1
First Half: Pyro Female - Pyro Escoffier (5 star)

6.2
First Half: Pyro Male (Durin?) - Vaporize Carry

6.3
First Half: Hydro Female - Main push, top meta character
Second Half: Anemo Female - Swirl-Bloom Team Specialist

Next are Spoilers:

"Guide" Nicole Reeyn's true identity: || Special Seelie||

Columbina ||is the newborn Frostmoon Goddess||

Nod-Krai weekly boss:
||Fake “God” — The Dottore, mecha form||

The Dottore’s plot: ||Dies before the burning Irminsul||

Via 领域重开 (kekw)

Imagine N is that First Seelie and Human's baby

Also, look like hoyo want to "fix" reaction by making Frostmoon Playable changing the reaction

Columbina being a newborn probably mean she was chosen by the tribe people, the winner of this fight is Frostmoon 💯

Can't wait for NodKrai honestly

For now I am making theory cuz I'm bored

[tawdry blade]

Still no mare Jivari leak, pretty crazy

[ember beacon]

FUCKING CALLED IT BRO.

Is his skin the first to have a change in idle animations about him getting by a pebble?

@ashen ocean what did you say about bennett's misfortune can't be related to wayob? 😊 😊

[hasty narwhal]

half natlanian half.. nod krainan?

[ember beacon]

Half outsiders?

[ember beacon]

Will bennett be relevant to lore now?

[tawdry blade]

Finally

Why didn't I think about how the dragon eat the fallen moon when we know it is eternal moon resting place

Probably eating the power ,not literal rock

Nah

I mean,sun is far more important than moon

Assuming it exist

Imagine the sun is actually primordial one body Ironically,sun is also a star so there is that

Also,if it was the key to control Teyvat,the dragon and sovereign would make their own moon

I checked,other than the moon sister were under PO rule,it never stated they were his creation

What if it is to represent his attack on the 3 moon

I mean,it doesn't look like it is implies he made them

[tawdry blade]

Columbina is the Hydro character in 6.3, the main DPS of 6.X (Basically, the Archon level character of the region)

Via Shirai

Maybe she will use Furina abandoned gravity kit

Moon created tide - gravity pulling the water.

[tawdry blade]

I don't think so,they gonna want to sell her good

Kinda suck they are making her playable in x.3

She is supposed to be a DPS so

[tawdry blade]

Leak never said Furina was a DPS though

[hasty narwhal]

Not the last minute Skirk nerf lmao

[tawdry blade]

Just scroll up a little..

[hasty narwhal]

nerfing a 5 star to buff a 4 star sales instead of just buffing the 4 star is peak decision making

[tawdry blade]

She is hydro and has vaporise reaction on her side (and Citlali)

Depend on her icd

So Mualani 2

[hasty narwhal]

Are we finally getting a 5 star Xiangling

[hasty narwhal]

well xiangling is a liyue 4 star which makes it feel even more wrong

[tawdry blade]

Heard Skirk animation got faster

[hasty narwhal]

I'm so tired I thought you were talking about the animation that dropped this morning and I was, did they just reaupload it with 1.25x speed? 😭

But that's nice, i hope she feels as satisfying as Childe now

[tawdry blade]

Atleast she crit more and doesn't need group of enemy to feel satisfying

[hasty narwhal]

surtr being logic is interesting

[tawdry blade]

Where is this from?

Is it weapon skin

Oh,it is

This look cool asf

[hasty narwhal]

Maybe Childe sucks at the bow because Surtalogi never taught him how to use it 😔

But that's an interesting lineup

you would think the destroyer of worls would use a big claymore but a bow for more sniping makes sense

That would be cool, and she still taught him surtalogi foul transformation so yeah she could have just taught him that technique thinking he would be able to use it in his journey rather than spreading the surtalogi agenda

iirc Dain did say in Childe's misc episode that Ajax didn't really understand where the power he drew came from and how dangerous it is. My boy is just happy to have a transformation

[hasty narwhal]

oh so the weapon skins are actual new skin you can unlock, I thought it was just a system to let us put the design of another sword we already owned 😭

[tawdry blade]

They are giving the sinner weapon(skin) because only one of them(or none) will be playable

Look like 4* skin is the only one I can get

5* skin is for whale

I haven't spent much but I have many 5* and their weapon

Lol

I have them so its fine

Only Furina is c3,but the rest have their signature and good support

Well,for 4* skin,you only need to kill them after 180s passed

5* need you to kill them under 180s

[hasty narwhal]

I haven't whale'd in genshin in a long time, i don't think those skins will make me whale again 😔

maybe if Skirk feels very nice to play I will whale

g!characters

[random moth]

Genshin Wizard | Character Summary

[hasty narwhal]

mh maybe I will whale for Skirk

[hasty narwhal]

I love playing with him, he's a blast

forever E stance

infinite riptide echoes, he's one of my favorite character to play

second is probably Al haitham

and if Skirk feels good to play she might be 3rd

[tawdry blade]

Sad

[lean bay]

those skin be looking hella fine

[tawdry blade]

We do not know if the sinner are equally powerful

Now,let see how hoyo manage to release one sinner and shade playable and kill/defeat the rest, because I don't expect all of them to be playable,only one (like Neuvillete)

Surtalogi is out , Rhinedottir is playable, Istaroth is playable ,the rest of the sinner is likely unplayable with how little we know about them when compared to Rhinedottir and Istaroth

hopefully 5.8 skin is different and it is about the shade,maybe we will know about the "5th"

[tawdry blade]

Yeah that also work,all of xiao ‘s friend weapon

[tawdry blade]

Look like Traveler Character Story 3 confirm(?) Abyss is the main antagonist

I still believe that so it doesn't matter to me

[hasty narwhal]

Surtalogi is on a whole other level holy shit

• “Strength is what I have always pursued the kind that lets one tear through every lie and manipulation." *But... having come this far, I find myself struck by one worry.- That I might someday get bored.” *

This is giving me umineko vibes, boredom is the most destructive force and my guy has been spending his time destroying stars for the last 500 years

I might understand why Dain was so pressing Skirk about where he was, he probably knows letting that guy on his own is a menace 😭

okay yeah, I don't think he'll be playable

playing with his food indeed

afraid?

I read it more as annoyed

this is technically fucked up but it made me laugh

it's in her story quest

last one

So the foul rescued her because he was bored, and trained her so she could become an adversary he'll delight in destroying, and got excited at the prospect that maybe, perhaps one of his disciple would become stronger than himself and destroy him

yeah that guy no longer has any sanity left in him

I think someone should send Goku on his ass

Yeah I think so too

I wonder how alice felt watching surtalogi destroying all the other stars but Teyvat

Where does it say that?

the run away from his sword?

i don't remember if they fought in the trailer, i just remember dain being reflected in her sword

true

so he does have a side cape like Childe

So the illusion we fought in the whale was indeed him and not an imitation of childe's transformation

interesting

It was mentionned?

I didn't reread the quest

oh I was referring to the shadow we fight in the whale fight in fontaine when it swallows us

unless it was also confirmed that was him idk

[ember beacon]

Fucking hell mate, the next page for the voicelines just fucking mention that Dori knows Alice.

[ember beacon]

Huh? Where?

[hasty narwhal]

Is skirk the first character outside of traveler who has a voice line about Dain so far?

[ember beacon]

Skirk said that the abyss will never perish.

[tawdry blade]

That kinda mean nothing,most things will never perish but it can be stopped,the same way Teyvat was before the entire events

He look almost like that one knight dude

[hasty narwhal]

he does that's why I thought it was him lmao

Abyss never perishing makes sense, it seems to be a natural thing. What's not natural about it is probably people spreading it into their home for stupid reasons

[tawdry blade]

Yeah ,the same way star /light won't perish but outside force will make them

[hasty narwhal]

combustion?

[tawdry blade]

Even after death,another will be created

[hasty narwhal]

Yep, such is the cycle, will that cycle ends at one point we don't know, but if it does, the laws of chaos would suggest another cycle would start again

[hasty narwhal]

isn't the explanation that she's holding herself back?

[tawdry blade]

Pretty cool,though I assume she did that so she doesn't be like her master

[hasty narwhal]

and only cryo is attracted to it?

that's a cool explanation tho

[hasty narwhal]

maybe she does it to respect Alice's wish of her not interfiering with Teyvat's natural laws

[tawdry blade]

So abyss Baptist is canonically better than Skirk

[tawdry blade]

Real?

[finite horizon]

https://youtu.be/oD41FdzNGH8

[tawdry blade]

Damn

Where the portal

We got map leak already huh

I expect tomorrow ngl

[leaden burrow]

Is Direidyth voiced by Navia’s VA??

Sounds really familiar

[paper furnace]

It still sounds exactly the same, is a voice actor still changed?

[leaden burrow]

It is changed

[paper furnace]

Just checked, it wasn't

[leaden burrow]

Nah, it really is

Idk why they didn’t list the anonymous part like they did for Keqing

[paper furnace]

OMG OK NOOWWWWW I HEAR IT

The new VA does really good !!

I wonder why they aren't credited

[tawdry blade]

Paimon being a snitch and Karen smh

[leaden burrow]

Probably meant the VA

Well, the old one

[leaden burrow]

Probably the same case as the Travelers

Not enough time to record before the patch

[paper furnace]

They both tweeted how they are excited to be back, so I don't think so

[leaden burrow]

Venti and Hu Tao got recorded voice lines about Lan Yan and Dahlia respectively

They don’t have to tweet if they’re gonna voice

[tawdry blade]

She was trying to tell iansan that npc was slacking off

[paper furnace]

Spoilers
||Wdym a spaceship brought traveler to teyvat....||

Like ok ||trailblazer||

[leaden burrow]

We’re trying to figure that out as well bruv

The spaceship thing was pretty out of the place

[paper furnace]

Right, especially cuz they never mentioned anything like this before

[tawdry blade]

I mean,no one asked

[leaden burrow]

Since we’ve NEVER heard about ANYTHING even as technologically advanced as a mfing phone

Let alone a whole ass spaceship

[paper furnace]

RIGHT

[tawdry blade]

Pretty sure Travaler told Mavuika driver license exist in their world

That is modern already

[leaden burrow]

Well nobody asked either yet they mentioned it either way

Besides

The Traveler has their key this whole time

Why was there NO point in time where we even seen the damn thing?

[tawdry blade]

Inf inventory

[paper furnace]

Ok so y'know how hsr and genshin both have characters inspired by hi3? What if the trailblazers are inpo of the travs. Idk how to explain it but like what if they are the same

[paper furnace]

And what pocket are they keeping it in 😭

[tawdry blade]

I heard in mythology,the trailblazer are Aether and Lumine children

Don't question

[leaden burrow]

😭 Yeah exactly, where tf was it

[paper furnace]

What mythology?

[tawdry blade]

Whatever mythology they were inspired from

[leaden burrow]

Tbh until there are EXPLICIT confirmation about Teyvat sharing the same universe as HI3 and HSR, I doubt it

[tawdry blade]

You could try search their name?

Anyway,back to the story

[paper furnace]

Only aether is based on mythology. Greek, to be exact. A mythology, he is a primordial deity

[leaden burrow]

Hhhhhhhhhh god ngl this quest is kind of painful to look at with Aether

[tawdry blade]

Different model?

[leaden burrow]

Nah, for some reason there is just a hint of romantic tension everywhere

[tawdry blade]

lol

[paper furnace]

I can't believe dain isn't voiced

[tawdry blade]

Too much handholding

[leaden burrow]

Yeah exactly

The scenes would probably feel not as “forcefully romantic” with Lumine though

Wait that sounds a little bad

[tawdry blade]

[leaden burrow]

I get she’s just nervous and stuff

But what was Citlali getting jealous for

[tawdry blade]

Did she know it was a girl? If not I assume she probably feel jealous because we spent time with a new friend while she was defending/monitor Natlan

[leaden burrow]

Idk, I forgot

[tawdry blade]

Me met her again after we check on that girl so

We*

[paper furnace]

How long is this quest?

[leaden burrow]

Oh she did

Called her bad news

[tawdry blade]

So ruler of time is part of this

Crazy

What if you give her the key?@3.14_pisquare

I assume Istaroth would intervene

Istaroth is OP

Change the outcome probably

Twin seem to hate her for it

Some part was confusing indeed

Why would UGod just leave like that

But that kinda confirmed she is active?

[leaden burrow]

I gave the key, Lumine still appeared

[tawdry blade]

But did she actually take it

Or she is frozen

[leaden burrow]

It’s gone from my inventory so I assume she did

At least, Idk where it is

Yeah it’s probably gone

Idk if keeping it would keep it in your inventory

[sweet gyro]

Yeah lumine ends up throwing hers again to complete what happend

[tawdry blade]

Cool little Easter Egg,when the Twin said "If I wish to speak with the HP as equal, I will need the might of an entire world behind me" and it was Traveler who is behind the Twin,while the Sustainer was in front

No but it was the direction of the portal

So I still count it

[analog merlin]

What key?

[plain bison]

Wishing i kept the key now

I feel like this will come back to bite me in the ass in the far future, surely its just an illusion

[tawdry blade]

Whh

[tawdry blade]

Nah,it fine

[plain bison]

||I gave her the key|| but judging how the quest starts, it might really just be a || time loop ||

or ||samsara cycles ||fr

that tiara set looking real suspicious

[tawdry blade]

Not exactly,this time loop was different though

I doubt Istaroth restart everything for the same outcome lol

[plain bison]

I agree, but the quest implied that the || abyss sibling, was in our shoes as well with them giving the key to the girl and all ||

[plain bison]

Yeah, it might really be different this time

Afterall, we will deliver the Genshin Impact to finally break free from the cycle

[tawdry blade]

I mean,it is pretty obvious ngl

[plain bison]

Kinda wild the || Sustainer || also made her presence for the first time since 1.0

https://tenor.com/view/cat-smiling-cat-grey-cat-cute-cat-gif-2949633679466643461

[tawdry blade]

Look like we got another stalker on our radar

[leaden burrow]

Is it me or are Paimon’s lines a mix of the new VA and Corina’s??

There’s a quite a few lines (mainly from Skirk’s quest) that sounds like is voiced by both

[tawdry blade]

Oh so her sitting animation is her regaining her strength after training/fight

[frank wigeon]

Yup and we didn’t even get to see her smh

Just her portal closing

But this quest was super good imo

[leaden burrow]

Ngl I kinda like both of Skirk’s designs

Not the fully black outfit, I meant the one she had back in Fontaine

Though I kinda wish she had stuff from both together in one- The playable design is kind of too white

[distant citrus]

||so was dereiryth we saw from atlus of khanerria Or was she real dereiryth from 500 years ago casue how did the space shuttle key we gave to her made it to sibling? Like wasn't dereiryth we saw just a memory? And also sibling we met was from 500 years ago or current timeline one? He spoke like current timeline one but then traveler says the version they met is 500 years apart...is istaroth involved it this? Got so confused here...||

Can someone explain few things? Anyone done with aq?

[tawdry blade]

My theory for this is:
In the original timeline,Gen1(let call it this) Traveler gave the key to Direidyth,which then lead to the present,but the Twin always wondered how did that happened,until this AQ. Apparently Istaroth might have done something,based on Venti already know who traveler is and talk about adventuring again

[distant citrus]

||The atlus is created using the memories of khanerria survivors right? So dereryth we saw was result of that as far as I understood. But then how did she simultaneously exist 500 years ago or had effect on the past? Is this where istaroth comes? Like she makes it so the current dereiryth from atlus has impact on the past? ||

[tawdry blade]

Time shenanigans are pretty hard to explain imo

[distant citrus]

I understood the sibling story I just don't understand how current version of dereiryth could have existed in the past

Maybe that's where istaroth comes in I guess

[tawdry blade]

I assume the first timeline Lumine didn't met Aether in that memory

So like

[distant citrus]

Also sibling we met knew about future but we talk as if they're from 500 years ago? Very confused on that part
So was the sibling from the past or current timeline?

There are two timeline according to you yes?
One where sibling found the key from dereiryth and went to look for us therby abandoning khanerria
And the second where the same play out but this time istaroth does something to let the sibling see how thing went down?

[tawdry blade]

I can't think when playing at the same time so I will talk later

[distant citrus]

Np

[tawdry blade]

Timeline 1: Aether met Direidyth,the Abyss Order planned the attack like usual but the plot was different,there was no talking with Lumine,Aether never doubted about giving her the key , Aether only met her by chance ,in this timeline, without the key near her there was nothing to be suspicious of, whatever future event in NodKrai or Mare Jivari are unknown,it is possible it is the same but at the end of the journey it is different.

Which lead to timeline 2 where Direidyth gave Lumine the key from timeline 1 and in this timeline,Lumine talk to Aether about it. So this timeline Lumine isn't from the past,just a different version of the first timeline(I guess you could say current). She does not know the future but imagine someone giving you the key that your brother still has in his chamber, the only conclusion would be the key is from the future of another timeline.

Khaenriah chapter could be timeline one

[distant citrus]

sibling arrive in teyvat -> their memories are erased -> they spent some years with khanerria thinking that's their home -> cataclysm happen ->
we're supposed to save khanerria but then direidyth met us and gave us the key who she got from traveler from the future by intervention of istaroth -> sibling abandoned khanerria and find us still sleeping -> they wake us and starts to flee teyvat -> opening cutscene starts aka game begins

[frank wigeon]

Guys did skirks outfit revert to 4.2 one after her power was stolen?

[distant citrus]

Tineline 2 was created by intervention of istaroth as far as I understand

But timeline 1 also has the same set of events right?

[tawdry blade]

Yes

[distant citrus]

So timeline 1 version of sibling just doesn't know how they got the key

Like they get it from diredyth but not know how direidyth got it

[tawdry blade]

No

[leaden burrow]

Maybe it’ll be how we can explore Khaenriah after Snez

[tawdry blade]

Her power was returned

[distant citrus]

Is their actually two different timeline though? Like the sibling we met already has atlus of new world so he can't be from past
But then we talk as if he is?

[leaden burrow]

Nah I think the sibling we talk to IS the current one

[distant citrus]

Sibling got the key in the past that much is known
But the sibling we saw how it happened is the current version yes

[distant citrus]

Yeah that what I'm leaning too but hen why traveler says they're from 500 years apart

[tawdry blade]

Timeline 1 probably had bad end so Istaroth choose a branch of event that impact the story,which is the decision to give the key or not

[distant citrus]

"Istaroth succeded in bringing us together but unfortunately it's the version 500 years apart"

This is the dialogue

Again this dialogue is Happening in the presence of sibling who has atlus aka current timeline one

But dialogue says they're 500 years apart

Don't tell me this is en localisation problem again

[distant citrus]

Both choice lead to same result unfortunately

So story doesn't change

It's not like little one where choice actually change the outcome

Sibling was going to save khanerria but decided to go find traveler simply because they found key from direidyth
Now this direidyth got the key from future traveler
Again istaroth definitely did something such that memory version of direidyth can exist in the real past
But then we meet the sibling who has atlus

[tawdry blade]

I know that,i mean the 1st one did change because we cant play that version lol

[distant citrus]

Hmm so the sibling that we meet which timeline version is he?

[tawdry blade]

At the end before the cutscene,she mentioned wanting to reunite with Traveler 500 years in the past,

What she meant is,she want to be together 500 years before everything,not now

[distant citrus]

The sibling we meet they're the current version yes? Not the 500 years ago one

[tawdry blade]

Yes

[distant citrus]

So when we gave the key to direidyth and then direidyth was sent back to past by istaroth and that created timeline 1 where sibling went to wake us up instead of saving khanerria

And when we didn't give key this time it created timeline 2?

Did choice even matter?

The aftermath looked the same

This is what I'm confused about

In what context is it said? The current one where we are talking with our sibling or the past?

Feels like timeline paradox is getting created here...

This event feels like similar to the sakura tree one in inazuma

[frank wigeon]

So the sinners are

Eldritch horrors

They can “become monsters that defy description”

Genshin entering cosmic horror era ever since 5.0

[distant citrus]

Okay so read some comment on reddit lore
Basically Direidyth reunited us dialogue is in the past context
Us choosing to give the key or not doesn't matter

Timeline is the same just we're reliving the event and seeing for ourselves how the past happened

Oh well..

[frank wigeon]

Yeah but they never had unfathomable horrors that defy description

The five sinners seem to have become Eldritch terrors

Snd it seems like the 4 shades are also Eldritch horrors

[distant citrus]

No I understood that. What I meant was that sibling we saw is the current version with atlus
And the dialogue that we're reunited 500 years apart is made in the context of 500 years ago where sibling found us sleeping in our spaceship

I was confused that reunited 500 years apart dialogue was meant for current version of sibling

But it was made in the context of past version

So i got confused that the sibling we are talking is from 500 years ago when that's not the case

Also using future events to trigger past event... Istaroth definitely don't care about time paradox lol

[worldly raptor]

do you guys think it will matter in the future if we gave the key to direidyth or not? because i did and i kinda regret it since i heard someone say that the key was proof and that we mightve broken a cycle

[distant citrus]

No
Outcome doesn't change as far as I know
Both option result in similar outcome

I chose not to give the key and I watched on YouTube where they gave the key
Both had same outcome basically

Istaroth basically reset the timeline where you give the key anyway
It's the same thing as the little one quest where you choosing to self destruct doesn't matter because timeline is reset

[worldly raptor]

ah i see

[distant citrus]

Yeah also the one toward the end of the current quest was istaroth right? The one spying on our conversation

It's like the fate is already written and istaroth is using the written future to tweak the past event but to what end? We'll probably get to know in the future I guess

[strange oxide]

doing the AQ. would yall say playing in EN break immersion? Does dain have many lines? Also, does the traveller have big moments that was meh cuz theres no voice?

[tawdry blade]

Didn't know Narwhal can mimic someone ngl

"water can take any shape" will never die

[hasty narwhal]

it's said in his boss description or one of its drop that the whale is a celestial being that devours lost civilizations of perished stars and is supposedly going to be devouring everything before the last spark of the universe goes out, so that from its belly a new universe can be reborn from the imprints of the civilizations swallowed or something.

Since the whale rn is a juvenille, it's attempt at mimic are very archaic and the universe inside its stomach is still very empty, probably because it didn't explore more yet.

Surtalogi being the one who kidnapped it and raised it, it makes sense the first "living" things the whale would try to copy would be his master. Unless Surtalogi himself was actually in the whale stomach during fontaine fight but if true then he weak as f lmao

[leaden burrow]

Seems like this Zhouxin is going to be inportant if they’re appearing twice

[lean bay]

damn what is ineffa lmao

[leaden burrow]

Unless they’re this NPC I have no idea about

[tawdry blade]

Its the new character

[thick coral]

Direidyth is voiced by Julia Gu, VA of Kirara.

This means Kirara is no longer muted, most likely.

And she appears in the list of characters you can meet in Traveler's Tales.

Fun fact: Traveler's Tales is also the name of the de-facto sibling company of LEGO that makes the LEGO video games of today since 2005.

[leaden burrow]

Oh wow, I thought it was Navia’s VA

Surprise surprise

Oh wow he looks WAY better than his default outfit

Was gonna say why he looked Natlanese

NATLANESE

FUCK

Natlanese (X)
Natalie (✅)

No wonder why he has bad luck

When a random 4 star from Mondstadt embodies Natlan better than the Pyro Archon with his free outfit

I mean what does a biker suit help represent Natlan

Why is his face whiter than his arm???

He kind of got that mix of Scion of the Canopy and Children of Echoes

I kind of don’t like the… sleeve? glove? thing is just on one arm

Should’ve either been on both arms or not there at all

We all know how ugly Chasca is

[hasty narwhal]

Basically he and Dain had a psycho teacher who now forgot about it because he gave his memories up to the loom of fate or some bs. The fact the whale summons a surtalogi mimic and the other dude appear as him too is according to skirk "because they idolize his strength so much they wanna be him" (spoiler they will never be)

He looks cool, i might use it for once

[inland thistle]

i just had a sudden thought of the traveler being a major part of the loom of fate since he lost his memory

idk if it's a good theory though

[untold rain]

what should i do first, skirk story quest or dain quest?

what order makes more sense for those that played both?

or at least which is more satisfying

[tawdry blade]

Dain > Skirk, because skirk has more cutscenes overall.

[hasty narwhal]

skirk's people were able to resist any kind of environment change or energy change

they basically were extreme survivors to natural caused variants (adapt to abyss, extreme change in temperature or radiation etc..)

and yeah the people sound a lot like IPC

[hasty narwhal]

that's a big boy

[plain bison]

I’m now convinced our traveler is the true prophesied savior

we will be THE genshin impact

[untold rain]

finished skirks quest and the dain quest

i have questions about the timeline

some stuff doesnt add up for me at all

like was the beginning of the game vs asmoday before or after the cataclysm?

i always assumed it was before, but now i am not sure anymore

[untold rain]

rewatching the abyss sibling conversation and it kinda makes no sense?

abyss sibling lost memories and woke up in khaenriah
spend a few years there and started to remember mc sibling again
searched "the whole planet" for sibling but couldnt find them

during the cataclysm, direidyth approaches abyss sibling with the hybernation chamber key and tells them about how mc sibling is looking for them
the abyss sibling that searched "the whole planet" finds mc sibling still hybernating on the space ship, the only place they didnt search in...?

abyss sibling grabs mc sibling and leaves, khaenriah gets destroyed

[tawdry blade]

Time travel

Also a reminder that Venti remember us but we don't so there is that

And Istaroth is closest to Venti as well

[untold rain]

the confirmation that istaroth and time travel is involved now leaves us with 2 possibilities:

first possibility
the siblings landed on teyvat and abyss sibling instantly lost their memories, with mc sibling still hybernating

then after the cataclysm, mc sibling wakes up and both siblings attempt to leave but asmoday stops them (start of the game), abyss sibling then goes on a journey with dain and mc sibling gets send 500 into the future by istaroth

or

second possbility
the siblings land and try to leave again (immediately???) but get stopped by asmoday (start of the game), abyss sibling loses their memories and wakes up in khaenriah while mc sibling is back in the hybernation chamber sleeping(???)

then during the cataclysm abyss sibling grabs us from the chamber, we still end up being seperated somehow and mc sibling gets send 500 years into the future while abyss sibling travells with dain

in both scenarios, abyss sibling loses us twice

tbh i think the first possibility is less convoluted and makes much more sense

[tawdry blade]

I think Istaroth aware of Look of Fate and intentionally make what happened within the realm canon

Loom*

[untold rain]

because what the fuck do you mean asmoday stops as at the start of the game and we end up back in the hybernation chamber

[tawdry blade]

I would assume we actually die but instantly return to hibernation chamber?

[untold rain]

why would we die and respawn

abyss sibling isnt dead either

[tawdry blade]

Cycle of Star

Birth,Death and rebirth

Whoever the creator is probably made the Sibling have those feature?

[untold rain]

also like, where is the space ship? is it near khaenriah and does the scene of abyss sibling standing alone on a cliff, watching the destruction in horror alone, take place before finding us on the ship or...?

some things are not adding up currently

[tawdry blade]

Before finding us likely

[untold rain]

also like, istaroth must be stalking nonstop

[tawdry blade]

She is god of time ,time is nothing to her

[untold rain]

the timeline for direidyth is also weird as fuck

grow up in a tiny village near khaenriah (with a visible sky? another fake sky but underground?)
hear prophecy of the savior
end up in natlan but 500 years in the future (istaroth placing her there?)
meet mc sibling, gets the hybernation key
somehow ends up back in khaenriah, 500 years in the past (istaroth sending her back after getting the key)
talks to abyss twin
cataclysm happens, turns into a hilichurl
somehow finds her way back to that cave in natlan as a hilichurl and lives there with the key for 500 years

poor girl

i wonder if she will appear again someday since she ran away lol

[tawdry blade]

Was it ever stated to be a village underground? Maybe it is somewhere above Sumeru

Close to Natlan

[untold rain]

i kinda assumed all khaenrians lives underground

[tawdry blade]

My theory is she was in Natlan simply because Loom of Fate affect that same hilichurl who ran away

[worldly raptor]

is there anything about if columbina will be playable?

oh thats good

ive been saving for her

do we know if shes gonna be a main dps or her role in teams?

oh dang

what about element

ohh

what is lunar reactions?

havent heard that before

kk

[worldly raptor]

ah i see

is there any leaks of a new element this upcoming patch?

[worldly raptor]

does anyone know why venti remembers us but we dont remember him?

its a voiceline

also in the paralogism quest did anyone else peep that alice referred to herself as paimon’s aunt? maybe paimon was created by the hexenzirkel to keep an eye on traveler

[tawdry blade]

Venti Hello voiceline

To be specific

[worldly raptor]

yes this one

[tawdry blade]

I don't think it is a loop but the new AQ open a new and better theory for Venti voiceline

[untold rain]

watch it turn out that the beginning of the game is actually the end of the game

and we just had future memories all along

[spark anchor]

Funny how this got thrown out so randomly after years.. like "hey this is the key to the hibernation chamber in the spaceship!" Oh cool! This is the key to the WHAT

[hasty narwhal]

the plot twist woud be the twins are part of the species that destroyed Skirk's world

[spark anchor]

Eh I mean there's a lot of possibilities for that as well, they could've flown through space, idk you can put any sort of explanation for it

We don't know what their full strength is like

That's irrelevant for space travel. Different people can have different abilities, since they came from outside of Teyvat they literally could have used any means to traverse the stars

Does the traveler have their memories of all that happened before the cataclysm?

On another note, I like these types of visuals and wish we got more. Wanted some for skirk's homeland but the quest we got was quite fine too

[cinder path]

1. Direidyth and us meeting happened because our sister superimposed khareiah 500 years ago over present day Natlan. But we met Direidyth before Haden was able to take Dainslief's memories of Khanreiah meaning it shouldn't have formed until 3 or more days after we met Direidyth. Am i missing something??

2. Also whem lumine said, an intersection in our memories, she's referring to when she came and met us when we did ro didnt give direi the key right? But are we talking to present day Lumine or Lumine from the past?

3. Also Lumine said she can't find a place to put the real. Of Khanreiah, why dont they just put it where the original khanreiah was?

4. She also said, her actions 500 years in the future set everything in motion. Does this mean her completing the realm of khanreiah, which allowed us to meet direi, was the reason why Lumine abandoned Khanreiah to begin with?

5. But then she wouldnt have needed to make that realm if she never left and she defended the place.

Order of events :

1. Cataclysm happening

2. Direi gave Lumine our key

3. Lumine abandoned Khanreiah and looked for us.

4. Lumine found us and 3 keys existed all at once.

5. Lumine took us out and brought us somewhere.

6. Eventually, we meet up with direi when the abyss order attacked Natlan.

7. With the help of Dainslief, we wiped out the order but they used dainslief's memories to create a realm for khanreiah.

8. We went back to Direi and gave her the key thats why we saw a hilichurl with a key in modern day Natlan.

9. We met our sister who also gave a key to direi to ensure that it would happen since she already formed the khanreiahan realm.

10. But if this is the case, if she left her key there, couldn't she also have taken jt so direi wouldnt show her anything so she would remain to defend khanreiah?

Someone help me understand, im so confused

[tawdry blade]

Lumine is aware of Istaroth intervention, if she doesn't do that,Traveler will. So basically the choice matters here,you give her the key,Lumine keeps her, you don't give her the key,Lumine gives her .

For your 5th question ,I think she doesn't have the power to do so. That is why she needs the might of the world to face Heavenly Principle

She was played with by Istaroth,she doesn't stand a chance ngl

[cinder path]

do you have any idea about the time discrepancy in no.1 ?

[tawdry blade]

,Lumine said that she collected other abyss order member 's memories before,it is just that Dainsleif has more memories

[ember beacon]

How many hours is it for both AQ quest and skirk?

[tawdry blade]

Act 1?

[cinder path]

a friend of mine says he saw it going like this :

Siblings crashes onto Teyvat.
Sibling woke up, was found in/by Khaenri’ah and crowned the Prince/Princess.
Sibling slowly regains their memories and tries to find us but to no avail.
While Cataclysm was about to drop on Khaenri’ah, Sibling gets the news about Travelers location from Direi.
Sibling goes to Traveler and escapes with them.
Sibling & Traveler try to escape.
While trying to escape Unknown God stopped them (Beginning cutscene).
Then Traveler and Sibling were separated again. Sibling woke up again and Traveled Tevyat before knowing the Truth of this World.
After that they met Chlothar who blamed Sibling for ‘abandoning’ Khaenri’ah (Cos they went to look for Traveler). Later met Verdfolnir and established Abyss Order (This is Bedtime Story Quest)
500 years later Traveler woke up. Fished out Paimon and game begins

what are your thoughts on this?

but something i cant get behind about this is that lumine was able to wake us up?

[tawdry blade]

• The Sibling were likely summoned ,not by teleporting but sending signals to their spaceship, it was before the cataclysm ,my other theory was both died but one lost their memories but wake up early
  -Their spaceship was probably somewhere
• I would guess because no one asked about it, there was no reason to

[untold rain]

its just baffling how sibling uses the phrase "i searched the whole planet to find you" and then we are just sleeping in the spaceship

how is that the one place you didnt search

what was the explanation for sibling not being a descender again?

[tawdry blade]

Not worthy I guess

[cinder path]

probably cuz th spaceship landed somewhere they couldnt find

[tawdry blade]

Fr

[untold rain]

was sibling recorded in irminsul?

so nahida could just tell is the entire timeline of events then

[tawdry blade]

She couldn't see it I rhink

[untold rain]

nahida: "i cant read"

😭

[tawdry blade]

I think the spaceship is outside Teyvat

continent

Genshin 2 story will be: after reuniting with Lumine,we now try to go back to our ship but encounter a problem,it is time for us to colonize this new continent like Celestia

[untold rain]

i hope we get to explore the ruins of khaenriah and the crashed spaceship in the future

[tawdry blade]

Traveler spaceship was fine so no

[untold rain]

because with lumine trying to copypaste khaenriah to a "suiting location" i could see them putting it in the most convenient space on the map.... south of sumeru in the ocean

i always wondered why inazuma was so far south

this might be it

[tawdry blade]

We could explore the ruin of Khaenriah in that big gate,but the new Khaenriah is likely somewhere else who know

Hmm true,the fact there are mountain inside the Night Kingdom explain it

Just a little foggy

lol

I guess ,so the same as Traveler fragment being stolen?

If The Sibling can absorb unlimited abyss ,they could actually steal from the sibling somehow

That could be why she lost her memories

[ember beacon]

People be complaining about Mavu's bike when we got A FUCKING HIBERNATION CHAMBER on a SPACESHIP that comes from asspulling traveler's story lol

[tawdry blade]

I already replied to you in #・copium but I forgot to mention the traveler has technological wing too

[spark anchor]

[ember beacon]

Another thing that I would complain about is the complaints about Citlali's behavior, Direidyth's behavior is more than Citlali goddamnit

[ember beacon]

Blud, Direi is moving faster than Citlali lol

Tine (@tinelifa)

Things that got "confirmed" for me in this Archon Quest :
- It is in fact possible to bring back Khaenriah
- Dain is in denial and an unreliable narrator
- Kaeya DEFINITIVELY come from the "new" Khaenriah that the twin will create in the future "where the gods gaze does not fall" https://t.co/JDhLiyA84v

vxTwitter / fixvx · Jun 18, 2025, 10:27 PM

[ember beacon]

Hmmm...

To mess with the abyss order or the traveler or us the players?

Arle would be from the actual in between cataclysm and current time where Khaenriahns survive all hardships...?

Also, where does this Arle lore about Khaenriah come from? Is this on that fontaine island that is seperated from the mainland?

Is that on the seperated island?

[wary parrot]

Does anyone know who was the sage that spoke of the prophecy for Khaenriah? I always thought it was Dain's brother but they refered the the Sage as a woman

[wary parrot]

The npc girl we run into, damn already forgot her name, she mentioned a sage came to her village and told of the calamity

and that the "savior" would change it all

She was referred to as a sage, but idk if it was referring to one of the 4 sages, I doubt it cause if they knew it was gonna happen, they wouldn't care about the "savior"

she/her

She was referred to as "she/her"

She was given a voice though, which they don't really do that for when it comes to just random people that are meant to not have any value

Lumine, but if that mattered then we'd be the sage and it wasn't our voice

When she talks about the village and why she's looking for the savior

like at most if its one of the 4 sages I guess it might be Istaroth

Istaroth has always seemed like a character, like one who is somewhat a trickster

I didnt think of this but I did notice both were technically present in the newest quest

We see what is the sustainer leaving and then the sibling talks of what happened being Istaroths doing when we see the sibling

I think they're setting something in motion, have you played Skirks quest?

oh really?

The detail I noticed most in skirks quest was when we ask her if she is a descender like us, despite being from another world, she said no

Descenders can change fate, but our sibling isn't a descender either, meaning the sibling cannot change fate

We didn't use dendro either though did we not

that same logic could be applied to hydro 😭

ahhh

I think we are kept there because PO knows that something bad will come of teyvat if the traveler doesn't change it

but the way surtalogi was described power wise, the fact that he didn't challenge the heavenly principles, bro just left, makes me wonder how strong PO is

[worldly raptor]

what do you mean?

so our sibling doesnt remember anything?

oh

but she remembers traveler?

what is it

ohh

do you think genshin will connect with the honkai games?

ohh

hey guys. what the fuck

vxTwitter / fixvx · Jun 19, 2025, 3:35 PM

there is a bug where you can re enter the cataclysm domain

go take some pictures before mihoyo patches it

[ember beacon]

What if Kaeya was actually from the New Khaenri'ah like it was theorized, but he was sent here because a disaster that is worse than cataclysm happened in the New Khaenri'ah?

[tawdry blade]

This theory kinda crack

I'm gonna have to wait until I understand why Kaeya came from the future but still hate the archon(iirc he secretly cursed at Venti in hilichurl language)

[tawdry blade]

Yo

[ember beacon]

I hope the Abyss Sibling knows what they are doing.

[strange oxide]

Can someone verify if im understanding the timeline correctly

||- twins are summoned by khaenriah. (Perinheri book explained this. Theyre searching for a descender)

• Abyss twin (AT) woke up first without memories and the MC missing. They become khaenriahn princess and the "savior"

insert paradox here where Dereidyth (D) obtained the key

• Cataclysm happened. D found AT. Showed the key. AT chose to look for their twin and ran abandoning khaenriah.

• insert Genshin Opening here where they were blocked by Sustainer

• abyss twin woke up first again. Travelled teyvat with dain. Then joined the abyss order.

• MC wakes up. Current game timeline starts. ||

[untold rain]

we dont know for sure but this one makes the most sense

also ||the twins might have woken up at the same time, it's just that istaroth sent traveller 500 years into the future for some reason||

[strange oxide]

Noted. Thanks!

[untold rain]

||you can also note that abyss twin is kinda stupid for "searching the entire planet" for traveller, but not checking the space ship lmao||

[ember beacon]

Don't use spoilers in the genshin SPOILERS, this is a safe place to not use the spoiler tag
