[oblique pulsar]

Agreed. 10 a week

[rough spoke]

TRUE

[hybrid pier]

shoot

[rough spoke]

Im actually kinda mad about them

[warped rune]

I had to take a team of 3 people and divide dragonspine up into 4 seconds just to be able to collect all mine

[hybrid pier]

shrink the partition and do a dualboot then

[warped rune]

Sections**

[rough spoke]

Like.. Imo the crimson wishes were amazing.

i wanna do more of them

[fluid atlas]

Last option is prototype amber 😂😂😂

[rough spoke]

isn't that for healers?

[oblique pulsar]

Yep

[fluid atlas]

Yes but my friend runs it

[pliant pecan]

I could try that.

[oblique pulsar]

That’s why stick to sac

[hybrid pier]

will work

[fluid atlas]

And his ning heals

[hybrid pier]

get windows 10 1807 maybe

[fluid atlas]

They don't have sac😂

[oblique pulsar]

Tf XD

[fluid atlas]

They only have mappa mare

[warped rune]

No they have sac

[hybrid pier]

is snow tombed good for eula

[warped rune]

^^^

[oblique pulsar]

They have sac

[fluid atlas]

Ning be like, Imma throw rocks at you, but imma heal too

[warped rune]

Yeah but Akkomaru is better

[fluid atlas]

Ah then sac it is

[hybrid pier]

idk how to get that

[warped rune]

Gatcha

[rough spoke]

Snow tombed is easier to get than akkomaru

[oblique pulsar]

But snowtomber is phys damage bonus

[hybrid pier]

is it a 5 star

weap

[warped rune]

Nope

[oblique pulsar]

4 star inazuma

[hybrid pier]

i hope not

ok

[amber ember]

So finally which one should i pick

[warped rune]

4*

[rough spoke]

its a limited 4 star

[amber ember]

The weapon

[oblique pulsar]

Sac.

[rough spoke]

You got C2?

if not, sac

[amber ember]

Lol c0

[rough spoke]

if yes, sac and then switch to something else

then sac

[amber ember]

Sac final?ok

[warped rune]

Yeap

Same way polar star is final on my Gorou

[amber ember]

Where to get weapons btw

[hybrid pier]

it isnt available rn right.

[warped rune]

Oh fuck I have to FARM TO 90

[rough spoke]

weapon banners ig

[warped rune]

NOOOOOOOOO

[rough spoke]

though they are a big scam

[amber ember]

U mean the trash banner

[rough spoke]

so i'd recommend you focus on chars

[amber ember]

Characters?

[fluid atlas]

Lmao don't go for weapon banner

The standard and event banners give you weapons too

[amber ember]

I have saved for xiao

[oblique pulsar]

Go for weapon banner when you have a job

[warped rune]

I got polar star and mistsplitter on wb tho 💪🏻

[fluid atlas]

I got 2 widsiths from there😂

[oblique pulsar]

So you don’t get scammed

[amber ember]

Rn i am poor

[warped rune]

And also… skyward spine when I tried for homa

[amber ember]

UwU

[oblique pulsar]

Ouch

I’m sorry for your loss

[rough spoke]

i got a thundering pulse early and its still benched right now tbh

[warped rune]

I’ve never had to accumulate fate points I’ve always gotten what I wanted my 5 star pull

[fluid atlas]

A friend of mine tried for homa, Got Memory dust thingy catalyst, Primordial and homa
All in 80 pulls lmao

[hybrid pier]

i saw someone use

[warped rune]

Homa just told me to kms

[hybrid pier]

homa on raiden yesterday

[fluid atlas]

They ran 3 cycles in 1

[rough spoke]

kill him

and steal his soul

[oblique pulsar]

Divide his soul for us

[fluid atlas]

I want to

[fluid atlas]

Also his hu tao

[warped rune]

Now im just missing skyward blade and I can complete my collection! 🤪

[rough spoke]

make a deal with the devil, if his soul passes the test, the devil shall give you luck

[oblique pulsar]

I’d give you mine

[oblique pulsar]

I don’t use it

Threw it on xingqiu for when I don’t need him

[warped rune]

I need it for Benny

[fluid atlas]

I only have 1 5-star weapon😂

[rough spoke]

i have 3

[fluid atlas]

Brent😂

[rough spoke]

2 of which i barely use

[fluid atlas]

From Cloud 9

[warped rune]

I have 9

[oblique pulsar]

Whenever I finally get a c0 benny maybe I’ll through it on him

[fluid atlas]

Want benny ;-;

[warped rune]

And it Includes two jade spears

😃

[fluid atlas]

I have C3 kaeya somehow, but genshin is like
Nope. You aren't getting benny

[rough spoke]

here are mine

i dont have sara c2 so i don't use thundering pulse at all

and i have a stringless so i can't find anyone who really needs skywars harp

[fluid atlas]

I want bows ;-;

Also bow characters😂

[warped rune]

I don’t have sara at all

She’s the only 4 star im missing 💀

[fluid atlas]

same

[hybrid pier]

i got c2 benny

[fluid atlas]

May god give you another 4♥️

[warped rune]

Tell god to fuck off and give me aquilla

Kazuha misses his mistsplitter and Albedo won’t hand it over

[fluid atlas]

give albedo his own sword?

[warped rune]

And wgs, very important

No, main dps build. Cinnabar doesnt help

[hybrid pier]

ive yet to

[fluid atlas]

Ah

[hybrid pier]

get like 45 dandelion seeds

[rough spoke]

albedo's charged attacks are beautiful imo

or at least.. better than other sword char's

[hybrid pier]

and kill the cryo cube like 10 times

pain

[rough spoke]

wait what

[hybrid pier]

idk what it s called

[rough spoke]

for who?

[warped rune]

🚶‍♂️

[hybrid pier]

i need crystalline bloom i ran out

[fluid atlas]

Yes cryo hypostasis

Eula

[hybrid pier]

eula

[rough spoke]

ah

cryo cube yeah

you were talking about benny thats why i got confused

[hot fiber]

crube.

[hybrid pier]

oh lmao

[fluid atlas]

The amount of pain I went through fighting the hydro cube for kokomi

Horrid. Absolutely horrid

[rough spoke]

hydro cube is easy if you just use diona tbh

[warped rune]

Hydro is easy thoughhhhh

[rough spoke]

or ganyu

[hot fiber]

hydro cube is easy if you use cryo

[rough spoke]

or hell even aloy

[warped rune]

The water animals are pain

[rough spoke]

They were a pain for me till i got fischl

[fluid atlas]

I used to use Yanfei lmao

Since I barely had built characters

[rough spoke]

ah well

[fluid atlas]

Also spectres,
Little sh*ts

[rough spoke]

Specters are shit, true

though you can freeze the non-cryo ones

[fluid atlas]

I would never be raising aloy because she requires them too

[hot fiber]

fucking spectres

[fluid atlas]

and I've fought 3 lifetimes' worth for kokomi

[hot fiber]

the hydro ones are the worst, fuckers healing themselves.

[fluid atlas]

I thought all healed themselves 😂😂😂😂

[rough spoke]

Hydro ones only

but they heal the others too

[hot fiber]

yeh

[fluid atlas]

I got so tired and annoyed fighting them😂

[rough spoke]

YOU LOOK AWAY FOR 2 FUCKING SECONDS AND THEYRE ALL AT FULL HEALTH

[fluid atlas]

I was like WHY WON'T YOU JUST DIEEEEE

[hot fiber]

murder/freeze the hydro and kill the rest.

[fluid atlas]

And then 3 would come together

I'd simply close my game

[rough spoke]

And if they die, they heal every specter around them

[fluid atlas]

Now they're easy

Honestly they got easy once I built my kokomi and yanfei

[rough spoke]

wolves in the overworld are easier

[fluid atlas]

jellyfish and vape

[hot fiber]

they're mostly annoying because they fly away from you

[fluid atlas]

Catalyst hehe

[rough spoke]

like.. at least with the wolves they drop like 5x what the specters do

fr i remember once a wolf dropped me 6 greens and 2 blues

[hot fiber]

wolves are obnoxious for the same/different reason

[rough spoke]

there are less wolves

[fluid atlas]

The corrosion;-;

[rough spoke]

healers exist

[fluid atlas]

Yes but it is still annoying

[rough spoke]

• the overworld wolves die fast enough so corrosion doesn't really matter

[hot fiber]

willing to buy team heal over time that doesn't require healer to attack

[rough spoke]

the ones in abyss are different because they have like 500k health'

[hot fiber]

give me dendro healer

[rough spoke]

dendro seems like it could be quite op tho

like.. y'know how when you start burning you lose like 15k health?

[fluid atlas]

I wanna play a dendro samachurl

[rough spoke]

and thats with the enemies artifacts

[hot fiber]

hehe

[rough spoke]

imagine if the players built a burning team

[fluid atlas]

Playable dendro samachurls would be amazing
Imagine everyone is coming and boom THORNS
GET REKT

[rough spoke]

ah yes

[hot fiber]

https://images.wikia.com/glee/images/0/0f/Burn_baby_burn.gif

[rough spoke]

"Dash trough this you fucking kenki"

[fluid atlas]

[oblique pulsar]

Sayu. Kokomi.

[hot fiber]

off field team heal, not on field.

[rough spoke]

Kokomi is actually way more used than people expected her to be at release tbh

[fluid atlas]

I'm imagining what dendro powers would be like
Imagine they're like pokemon ones

Stun Spore, Poison spore😂

Kokomi is simply amazing

[hot fiber]

gimme sleep spore ftw

[fluid atlas]

Tbh qiqi doesn't require to attack either

[hot fiber]

does to heal anyone not on the field

[rough spoke]

isnt that everyone tho

[hot fiber]

I mean, yes, that's the problem. 😛

[rough spoke]

ACTUALLY

BARBARA

[hot fiber]

also has to be on the field attacking to heal off field characters.

except for ult

[rough spoke]

Her C6 can heal

[hybrid pier]

ajd rev

[hot fiber]

lol

[rough spoke]

without neither her, nor the character needing to be on the field

[hybrid pier]

who died

last

[oblique pulsar]

Xingqiu heals

[hybrid pier]

w his e ya

[oblique pulsar]

But not full party XD

[rough spoke]

only on-field

[oblique pulsar]

No..?

[hot fiber]

again, only on field character

[oblique pulsar]

He’s healed my eula before

[hot fiber]

was she on the field? 😛

[rough spoke]

I remember a while ago when everyone just started talking about how good xingqiu is

[fluid atlas]

barbara's ult is like fast heals full team

Same with jean's

[rough spoke]

Like... some of the newer players didn't realize what is good about him

[fluid atlas]

Kokomi's ult needs her to attack but it is very powerful

[rough spoke]

and so i saw a fair share of xingqiu dps's in co-op

[hot fiber]

yeah but point was heal over time, not instant

[fresh egret]

xingqiu not rly there to heal lol

his heal is a smol bonus

[fluid atlas]

xingqiu as a healer sounds like shielder kaeya and yanfei😂

He is an honorary healer at best

[rough spoke]

can kaeya even shield?

[fluid atlas]

Yes

[rough spoke]

i mean.. tankfei is a thing

[fluid atlas]

C4 I think

like yanfei, his shield comes on at low hp

[rough spoke]

bru

yanfei's comes when she uses her burst

[fluid atlas]

Also, Kaeya self heals😂

[rough spoke]

and yanfei's is stronger than kaeya's

[fluid atlas]

oh?
I have a C2 so idk

[rough spoke]

i've never seen a kaeya shield tbh

[oblique pulsar]

Didn’t know he even COULD

[fluid atlas]

Because kaeya mains are rare
and kaeya constellations are even rare-er

[rough spoke]

its a c4

[rough spoke]

how many people do you know that have c4 kaeya

I cant even get c1

[fluid atlas]

Yes I mentioned it before

I have a C3 Kaeya :)

[opaque nacelle]

could this trigger off-field? lol

I have C5

[rough spoke]

how

[fluid atlas]

Lmao idk if it could trigger off field

I got my consts from gacha

[rough spoke]

welp i just have amber c1

[opaque nacelle]

same

[rough spoke]

kinda shit given that her actually useful C is c2

Though c6 amber does actually seem like a better support than some other c6 chars

or rather a better nuke

[fluid atlas]

I want C6 ning ;-;

[rough spoke]

YO WHAT THE HELL

Amber barron bunny at lvl 13 is 261

[warped rune]

Kaeya starglitter right now no?

[rough spoke]

yes but im poor as fuck

Ok now im curious

Is this +200% attack

[fluid atlas]

I guess so

[rough spoke]

or is it 3x the normal baron bunny damage

[fluid atlas]

Ah interesting idk

[rough spoke]

because this combined with her c1 could blow up 2 of them at once

and if its 3x the damage

and you get it to lvl 12

that would be like 1500% attack

[fluid atlas]

Amber can single handedly burn diluc's life and savings😂

[rough spoke]

which is more than any other char rn i think

though her base atk is pretty low..

Ok now im actually curious

Like.. if im a whale maybe she could actually be good

[fluid atlas]

Have you seen Rin Taichou's vids on YT?

They're an amber main

[rough spoke]

no, i haven't

[hot fiber]

is Taichou the martial art of sneezing?

[fluid atlas]

https://youtu.be/LRTmUPhH7jI

[rough spoke]

yeah im watching it

[oblique pulsar]

You get a original 4 star chara con from only standard banner every 140+ pulls for 1 random amber Lisa kaeya

[hot fiber]

and since nobody pulls/pays for standard banner pulls, these characters are more rare than 5*

[fluid atlas]

I've gotten my 3 Kaeyas in 140 ish pulls

[oblique pulsar]

Exactly

[rough spoke]

You can get em from limited tho

im pretty sure

[hot fiber]

entirely random, no guarantees

[rough spoke]

like.. i have a lisa const on my alt

and i don't remember wishing on standard there

[hot fiber]

you can, it's just entirely random against the entire list of 4* that are not on the banner

it's also very rare to get a 4* not on the banner

[eager urchin]

Base game characters are not in the Limited Banner pool

Kaeya, Lisa and Amber can only be obtained from the Standard Banner, at an equal chance as every other 4 star in the game

Limited Banner

Standard Banner

It sucks tbh because I'd love Kaeya cons

[rough spoke]

oh

well thats kinda..

[covert cradle]

Well I got scammed by the khaenri'ah faction, the original plan was for Albedo 6/9/8 and Kaeya 6/8/9, since I always get up a bit earlier before heading to work to spend some resin and check on expedition etc. I mistakenly upgraded kaeya's E to 9 last week and only realized this mistake this week and since I didn't want Albedo to have lower levels than a free 4 star Char and Eula also simped for them, their AA also got a small upgrade

[warped rune]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gA0KQHzjgQE&ab_channel=VarsII

Thoughts on this video? im curious to listen to more opinions

[rough spoke]

Lets see..

aight he showed this picture for the argument of "everyone looks the same"

well they're all humans + you can still recognize the characters easily

so...

[hot fiber]

technically they got characters that aren't human. But they're humanoid to the point of minute differentiation.

[opaque nacelle]

I wouldn't be mad if we got another skill or tried more stuff
heck right-click is still unused

[rough spoke]

ok good point

[opaque nacelle]

but we could get a few non-humanoids

[hot fiber]

Thoma does not count. XD

[warped rune]

Hello

[hot fiber]

To be fair, people skipping units are more due to Mihoyo's absurdly restrictive pull mechanics and money grubbing antics, than the units not being of value themselves.

[warped rune]

Friends, do you know what is the next banner?

i get that people from outside might not be able to recognize them

[rough spoke]

well itto

[warped rune]

but you can easy tell everyone appart

[hot fiber]

it is a banner that contains characters that may or may not be directly related to Genshin impact.

[warped rune]

Thank you

[hot fiber]

XD

[warped rune]

Will ito give shield?

The only game where i've seen a good argument for distinct shapes its TF2

[rough spoke]

Ok so About the weapons "you need the weapon to unlock the potential of the characters, and some characters feel incomplete without them"

I don't agree much there

most of them are just stat sticks

[hot fiber]

Ito is a geo character, so whether he has a skill that provides a shield, he will proc them innately

[rough spoke]

though yes, without the sac series some chars do feel incomplete i guess

[warped rune]

the only case, i think was kokomi's donut, but not the case for every other weapon

[rough spoke]

Kokopium's donut is around 10% better than prototype amber

at r1 vs r3+

[warped rune]

the video made some interesting points in the gameplay, but my mind payed more attention to the visual design

[rough spoke]

he barely touched on visual design

at least until the ninth min where im at rn

[hot fiber]

the only weapon I've used explicitly meant for that character is Raiden's spear. I don't feel like the weapon effect makes enough significant difference to performance except on the upper and lower percentages.

[warped rune]

Agreed

it was pretty much made for her, but the catch on the other hand, easly works on many other characters

[rough spoke]

"Bennett will probably get replaced in 2 years"

Bennett was originally meant as a pyro support(pretty sure)

so its not that he'll get replaced, he'll just stop being the universal support he is now

[hot fiber]

lol

I mean to be fair, I still don't use Bennett.

I may use him soon, but I don't really use him.

[warped rune]

in 2 years I'll probably stop playing

he's a must pick for abyss from what i've seen

[hot fiber]

I'll stop playing next year if we don't have a goddamn dendro character yet 😛

[warped rune]

if his c6 was at a lower constellation, he probably wouldn't have been as universal as he is

i don't think i will stop playing

will slow down after getting klee, but that's pretty much it

I see

[rough spoke]

"New characters stand out less since spring 2021"

[warped rune]

Will slow down when I get to go to college

[rough spoke]

I mean he straight up says that powercreep is not as much of a thing

[warped rune]

Let's just worry about the present and enjoy genshin as much as we can😋

[hot fiber]

^

[warped rune]

what i agree is that if the resin system was more generous, people might want to try more than few characters

[rough spoke]

Yes

Definitely

[warped rune]

However, if you're into game design and such, it's a good thing to pay attention

[rough spoke]

I'd say if they just straight doubled the resin it would be way better

[hot fiber]

they probably will before the game ends

[rough spoke]

Like.. 320 cap and 1 per 4 mins

[warped rune]

lower resin gain time, increase cap, increase condensed

even by a little bit

Genshin does so many things right that you can learn from

What will happen to genshin when it gets finished?

[hot fiber]

but they're following the same timed tired mechanic all gacha's use to try and convince people to pay in.

[rough spoke]

It will probs die just like every other game.

Though i'd say thats a good thing

[warped rune]

probably run the servers until they shut down

Damn

[rough spoke]

getting locked into a gacha game for too long is just ... kinda...

[hot fiber]

Honestly if they follow through and actually have an 'ending' this will be the best gacha of all time. 😛

[rough spoke]

Definitely

[warped rune]

Gacha games come and go

[rough spoke]

Minecraft is forever

[warped rune]

They already launched a new IP

Maybe there will be spin offs

I can see that happening

[rough spoke]

Wasn't there already one

Legend of the neverland or something

[warped rune]

We already got merch, nendos, so spin offs sounds like a must

Idk

[warped rune]

spin offs, not rip offs

Spin off inside the game

[rough spoke]

close enough

[warped rune]

Or maybe more adventures with side characterd

[rough spoke]

That would be fun tbh

like... having more interactions with the chars would be hella nice.

[warped rune]

if they focused more on the open world aspect

that also happens to include gacha

[warped rune]

True

If they give me the artifacts I want 😋😘😍

[rough spoke]

When was the last time xiangling had a non-event quest? AR 16? Exactly

[warped rune]

I'd give genshin a 5 year lifespan from today

maybe 6-7

In 5 years I'll enter college

So yea I'm fine

[rough spoke]

Ah well, as long as people stop being such meta slaves it would be good

[warped rune]

Remember, they never expected the game to blow this big

[rough spoke]

Who the fuck would expect their game to be big?

[hot fiber]

I want some metal slaves.

[hybrid pier]

why

[rough spoke]

Roblox was expected to be small, Minecraft was created as a little sandbox sideproject

[hot fiber]

Derrick Smart.

[hybrid pier]

true

[rough spoke]

Amongus ... idk about that one

[hybrid pier]

got insulted cause i used dragonspine spear on ei

[warped rune]

i mean, if you invest AAA budget into it, it better should

I used to play among us when it first released

[rough spoke]

Genshin was supposed to be just a little bit better than most gachas

[hybrid pier]

even though i dont care for genshin that much cause i quit for

3 months

[long torrent]

deserved

[hybrid pier]

im no meta slave

i use wgat i like and play for fun

[warped rune]

LMAO

might take the game a bit to catch up with the now huge expectations

[hybrid pier]

now she has 4pc adventurer because i dont use her

ever

[rough spoke]

probs

[rough spoke]

jeez

wait i use her only in abyss, why am i pretending to be better

[hybrid pier]

cause ur better

i dont even do abyss

[warped rune]

i mean, took no man's sky 2 years to deliver a good open world

[warped rune]

I mean, I use snow tombed claymore on razor

And I think I like it

Getting klee is my personal endgame, so

[hybrid pier]

i used archaic on razor

he was my main till i got eula

[long torrent]

i dont have razor

[rough spoke]

ah well, my razor came at ar 51 so i still haven't built him

[hybrid pier]

aka till like ar50

[warped rune]

I forced myself to spin in noelle banner and he came 😍

Got happy

[hybrid pier]

and i have no energy to do ascension

[warped rune]

One day I was thinking on getting Yanfei and got her in albedo banner

[long torrent]

c6 noelle but not any razors lol😭

[rough spoke]

i want a c6 noelle tbh

[long torrent]

you can have her lmao

[warped rune]

I don't use noelle

Never remember my first team

Fischl, bennett, xiangling and sucrose

[long torrent]

she used to be my main btw

[warped rune]

All I want is xingqiu

So I can use his burst with hu tao

Or maybe I wonder how it stays with xiao

[rough spoke]

nah xiao's not that great with xingqiu

[warped rune]

Wait wtf I don't have good weapons for xiao literally I don't have any good polearms

[long torrent]

i pulled on kokomis banner just for some xq constellation but ended up with a kokomi without any xingquis

[rough spoke]

crescent pike for phys xiao kekw

[rough spoke]

for morgana, kokomi is a bit better

[warped rune]

Is it a 4 star weapon?

[rough spoke]

its a joke

don't actually do it

please

[warped rune]

Oh ok

Quick question

[rough spoke]

you can try blackcliff for xiao

[hybrid pier]

idk use blackcliff pole

[rough spoke]

its a 4 star and xiao surely benefits from crit stats

[hybrid pier]

or prototype glitter kekw

[rough spoke]

right?

[warped rune]

If I spin on xiao weapon banner and the weapon banner ends , will I get his weapon in the next limited weapon banner?

Will my pity for it save?

[rough spoke]

well

it will save just for the next weapon banner

not for the next xiao weapon benner

[warped rune]

Oh

[echo loom]

yea

[warped rune]

So the chances of me getting his weapon is low

[rough spoke]

you can get it from standard kekw

just don't rush it

[warped rune]

I see

What are those stars that you use to wish called

Never knew the name

[hybrid pier]

starglitter dust?

oh

primogems

[rough spoke]

these?

[warped rune]

No

The things that you buy with prino

Primo

To wish

There are blue ones and pinkblue

[rough spoke]

intertwined fate are the pink ones

[warped rune]

Yes that

Genshin invents such names

[rough spoke]

acquaint fate are the blue ones

[warped rune]

Kk ty

Is arataki itto an archon

[hybrid pier]

no

[rough spoke]

arataki itto's the odd one in the geo family

like.. everyone else is trying to be as serious as possible

and hes just "im a punk, my job is to not have a real job"

[high elbow]

These last 3 banners have destroyed my

[warped rune]

stares at slightly emptier wallet

yeahhhhhhh

[rough spoke]

Y'know Imo noelle is a character (lorewise) that could destroy mondstadt easily
Like.. she can either fuck the knights of favonius by taking a one month break and let it destroy itself
or she could blow it up. In the lore she knows the location of every klee bomb stash and the recipe for a baron bunny

[patent egret]

I wasn't planning to wish for Ayato, but I might just because of his Japanese VA

My wallet will start to hate me

[warped rune]

the number of bomb caches

not the locations

[rough spoke]

ok i guess that makes sense

[warped rune]

but to be fair. klee didn't do a good job at hiding the one in the story stuff

[rough spoke]

though im pretty sure she knows the estimate locations for most of them

[rough spoke]

I want a hydro claymore to be honest

[warped rune]

hydro lacks playable characters

[rough spoke]

• from what i've seen ayato has hella sexy hair

[patent egret]

Please! We have too many hydro catalysts

[warped rune]

compared to everyone else

geo is getting 2 new characters

[patent egret]

You mean Yujin and Itto

[earnest scaffold]

Hello

[patent egret]

(Apologize for spelling erroers)

[plucky drum]

hi

[rough spoke]

I like how hydro has 5 chars, and 2 of them have practically the same elemental skill

[earnest scaffold]

@earnest scaffold is this asia??

I mean server

[rough spoke]

you just pinged yourself

[plucky drum]

I have Europe server

[earnest scaffold]

I see

[plucky drum]

I abandoned my asia identity in order to play with my friends

[patent egret]

I am American server

[earnest scaffold]

denm

[rough spoke]

Ha, i have no friends so I need not abandon anything

...

:c

[earnest scaffold]

Same

[plucky drum]

hmmm

Nice

But in this account I have Hu Tao and Baal!

[rough spoke]

ah makes sense

[plucky drum]

all the waifus I ever needed and wanted

I think

Should I pull for Albedo or save for Ganyu?

[rough spoke]

I feel like my choice for waifus is hella basic tbh

[plucky drum]

what main are you?

[rough spoke]

like.. the ones i like most from this game are hu tao, xiangling and kequing

[rough spoke]

Chongyun

[plucky drum]

Nice

I was once a Chongyun main as well

Hu Tao main now

[rough spoke]

Ic

[plucky drum]

He is really good

I used him with barbara

[rough spoke]

welp, unlike most other characters, his voice lines are actually relaxing

[plucky drum]

and he is eating ice

[hot fiber]

I don't think I really have a main, I'm a 'friendship building' main lol

[plucky drum]

hmm but I don't listen to voice lines

[rough spoke]

well xiao eats snow so...

[plucky drum]

Nice

[rough spoke]

how do you choose mains then?

oh wait, meta and visuals exist

[plucky drum]

Whatever character is most fun to use, I use

back then I did not even know grinding for bosses and artifacts existed!

[rough spoke]

Wanna know my first actual experience with chongyun btw?

[plucky drum]

Sure

[rough spoke]

Aight, i had just gotten him from a standard pull
I tried him out in the overworld not knowing rain affects the gameplay and i thought he freezes everything on hit

I was a bit disappointed realizing that he... well.. doesn't, though given that i use him in freeze comps nowdays i guess he does

[plucky drum]

he is really good

[rough spoke]

aight what the hell, i feel like my english has become way worse than 2 months ago

[plucky drum]

his c1 can actually make enemies freeze when you basic attack them in the last attack!

Chongyun Bennett barbara and another character was my first team

[rough spoke]

huh

well mine was chongyun xingqiu xiangling and barbara

[plucky drum]

woah!! pro

[rough spoke]

the reasoning is actually the most retarded you've heard tho

So.. Chongyun was nice, thats why he was there, xingqiu had been A/S tier on all tier lists from less than 1 month ago ( tried using him as a dps for a bit) xiangling was just cute and barbara .. well i needed a healer

[plucky drum]

xD

Nice

Xiangling is cute indeed

Barbara is cute too

I dunno why but I think of her dying voicelines

I can't hear everyone's voices

I can't exert power

[rough spoke]

I actually don't remember her dying voicelines

like.. if you use barbara you don't really die a lot y'know

[umbral turret]

Has anyone used the new import method for iOS? Is it not bannable by Genshin?

[rough spoke]

why would genshin ban it

[plucky drum]

I died a lot back then

my whole team died and Barbara carried me back then

[rough spoke]

huh

[umbral turret]

Idk. Use of third party app?

[plucky drum]

What was your first 5 star?

[rough spoke]

qiqi

[plucky drum]

Mine was Mona

[rough spoke]

on xiao's banner at soft pity

[warped rune]

Childe

[plucky drum]

Now I have her at C1

[warped rune]

On his first rerun. Joined at Ganyu’s banner tho

[hybrid pier]

i got qiqi twice in the same day

[rough spoke]

i joined at the end of ganyu's i think

Like.. i remember all the hype was about xiao

[plucky drum]

I think I started playing for real only when Ayaka's banner appeared and then I went to hibernate again and I rose because I saw booba sword

[warped rune]

I didn’t know how wishing worked so I missed all of them up until Childe

😭😭

[rough spoke]

Noob

[warped rune]

I COULD’VE HAD XIAO

BRO

I’ll kill you

/j

[rough spoke]

ah well

[plucky drum]

D- don't be rash

[warped rune]

I was joking lmao

[plucky drum]

🙂

[warped rune]

Hopefully he’ll come home this time around but im not desperate

[plucky drum]

I want Ganyu more

she is speaking to my eyes

[warped rune]

I joined for Albedo, got his c1 after 11 months, and then now im f2p

[rough spoke]

well im not sure if i should wish for ganyu

I mean.. her damage was OP but her gameplay is nothing special

[plucky drum]

I use welkin so im not f2p anymore but I don't regret it

[warped rune]

hardest Raiden burst has been 20k so far

Welkin is f2p

[rough spoke]

and i don't really care about xiao

[plucky drum]

nice!

[rough spoke]

If you go into an F2P server and say that you buy welkin you'll get destroyed

[warped rune]

^

[warped rune]

[rough spoke]

some of the F2Ps of this community are just terrible.

[warped rune]

You were there for the whole debate right?

And my opinion about it?

[rough spoke]

The one yesterday?

[warped rune]

Yup

My hu tao biggest dmg was 25k

[rough spoke]

I started it

[warped rune]

LMFOAOO

[plucky drum]

you will probably do more in the future

My best with Hu Tao was probably 104k

[warped rune]

Yeah I stand by my point. Welkin is f2p. The struggle is extremely real without it

[warped rune]

Yes when I put a good build

Welkin is F2P in comparison to the other options

[rough spoke]

Welkin is about 10x the value of other packs

[covert cradle]

F2p can stand for many things, free to play, fun to play, forced to pay, fine to pay So in a sense we're all f2p

[plucky drum]

only whales can buy the other options with no concerns

[rough spoke]

free to pay

[warped rune]

25 in welkin gets you way more then the other option for the same price

i'll repeat it
5 welkings give you more primos than a 100$ top up

[plucky drum]

xDDDDD

[warped rune]

[rough spoke]

only from the first top up

[plucky drum]

yes and yes

[rough spoke]

after that 3 is enough

[warped rune]

No, in this conversation we’re talking about free to play

[rough spoke]

Fish to play

[plucky drum]

I know free to play means no recharging money to your account so, with that in mind welkin is still pay to win

[rough spoke]

Free 2 Primogems

[warped rune]

Gacha games are P2W by design

so

[warped rune]

Mhy anniversary rewards:

[plucky drum]

but genshin is different, imagine getting Hu Tao???

[warped rune]

i don't think it's that much different

The ONLY gatcha game that insnt p2w is literally xenoblade 2

[median berry]

I got Hu Tao simply by luck 😭

[rough spoke]

the hell is xenoblade 2

[opaque nacelle]

lantern rite gave better rewards lmao

[warped rune]

3 welkings so far have been a huge burst in damage performance

[rough spoke]

wait lemme search that up

[covert cradle]

Disposable income is for hobbies anyway, as long as your genshin spending is not affecting your monthly bills who cares what you spend it on as long as you have fun and enjoy it, if everybody was f2p genshin ymwould have shut down a long time ago

[opaque nacelle]

lmfao so true. the rng in that game was still frustrating and didn't add much to it

[plucky drum]

I guess so

[warped rune]

Its a gatcha game by design but there arent any in game top ups

i mean, im grateful that i have the income to spend a bit in this game

[opaque nacelle]

it was just dumb, useless grind anyway

[covert cradle]

Also genshin is completely PVE with coop aspects, so whales don't really gain anything except for some self-satisfaction

[warped rune]

Got 3 neat 5* with just 3 welkins

[warped rune]

Xenoblade 2 made me so mad because the combot is confusing. Currently stuck on the fight where we unlock Mythra and I cant get past it

[median berry]

I set aside fun money every paycheck in case a Genshin banner drops that I want.

[warped rune]

Despite being overleveled for the fight

[median berry]

Pay bills first though.

[warped rune]

^

[rough spoke]

yes

and food

[median berry]

^^

[warped rune]

i might buy a BP one day

[rough spoke]

Y'know I remember a guy once told me
What do you think is better? Grinding 8 hours a day for someting, or getting a job which will make it cost half the time

[median berry]

I bought the BP the last two time only because I made it past level 30.

[warped rune]

Job for sure

[median berry]

That’s my rule for buying it for myself

[warped rune]

job

[rough spoke]

its easy to max it tbh

[warped rune]

get job
Set aside 15$

ez

[warped rune]

I’ve only been able to make it to level 50 if I bought the bp

[rough spoke]

just send one of your commissions to the mining one

[median berry]

Oh I know haha I max it out super fast.

[rough spoke]

and thats like 5 levels per bp

[warped rune]

my art has supported my monthly welkin and im grateful for that

[median berry]

I usually get to 45-47 by the end of it so I usually end up buying it.

[warped rune]

Nah I can usuallt only get to 27-28

[covert cradle]

Once you're done exploring and finished all quests staying f2p is extremely un-fun in my opinion, since progress is directly proportional to Ressources and resin in genshin, so even if you can get some characters being f2p by saving freemogems you're extremely limited in the ability to build and truly enjoy them as an f2p

[median berry]

^^

[rough spoke]

mining commissions

[covert cradle]

BP/welkin is probably the most enjoyable way to play genshin

[median berry]

Big facts. It’s my way to play on my F2P EU account.

[rough spoke]

TRUE

[median berry]

I whale on my NA account no lie 😂

[plucky drum]

I struggle at some of the quests, to the point I don't want those primogems anymore

[rough spoke]

thats how i feel with abyss sometimes tbh

especially this one with the wolves

[median berry]

ME WITH THE SIGNORA FIGHT! It took me so long to realize I had to break those floating things xD

[plucky drum]

xDD

[median berry]

I survive the wolves only because I have Kokomi out here dealing 56K 😂

[warped rune]

I dont do archon quests 😹😹😹👎

Tbh I don't even know what I do in genshin

[covert cradle]

It's also nice that you can buy it at any moment and still get all the rewards, this way you can always wait till the end of the BP period to decide if it's a worthwhile investment for your account or not

[warped rune]

I say "let's complete a quest" then get distracted

[idle jacinth]

Hello!

[median berry]

True! That’s what my friend usually does 🙂

[rough spoke]

archon quests are fun Imo

[warped rune]

Hi

[median berry]

^%

They truly are Trollar

I want another part to Yoimiya’s hangout 🥲 I love her so much.

[rough spoke]

Actually when will Liben come back?

Like.. the guy who lets you trade mint for primogems?

[idle jacinth]

I wish ayaka had another hangout

[median berry]

Ayaka 😭 I missed her only because I joined on the last day of her banner 😭

[rough spoke]

Venti had the best story quest Imo

[idle jacinth]

I missed baal banner

[covert cradle]

Mihoyo also reduced the rewards from exploring in inazuma in my opinion, a lot more common chests, guarded by multiple elites and on tsurumi Island they have a lot of those furnishing chests that are basically worthless unless you actively build stuff in your serenitea pot

[median berry]

See, I want to like Venti I really do.

But I just idk

[rough spoke]

I like how precious chests in inazuma are less guarded than common ones

[idle jacinth]

But I did get ayaka tho

[warped rune]

I hate ikea island

[median berry]

Baal blessed me by coming home in my first twenty pulls 😭❤️

[rough spoke]

meanwhile it took me 2 pities to get her

though i lost to mona which isn't that bad

[idle jacinth]

I missed it all

[covert cradle]

Basically they wanna prevent players from getting so much stuff if they start genshin once the full map is released with all 7 nations that they won't need the BP anymore

[warped rune]

I joined midway through koko 🥲

[idle jacinth]

But I did get 2 eula in 1 ten pull

[rough spoke]

bru

[opaque nacelle]

I still love that the winter event took me a way I never did before, giving me another lux chest... and now I can't remove the second agate in my bag

[patent egret]

Is there a mobile app for paimon.moe

[median berry]

Nice!

[rough spoke]

hacks

[patent egret]

Give me that luck

[median berry]

This was my last pull on the Tao weapon banner

[idle jacinth]

That luck was only once tho

[long torrent]

blocking you all bye

[covert cradle]

The big event in every patch gives you Ressources equal to like hundreds of chests each patch, mihoyo just wants you to continuously play genshin without missing a day

[idle jacinth]

Nice I got the staff too by pity

[long torrent]

not me having r2 elegy

[rough spoke]

I mean.. true

[median berry]

Yo I was so scared I was gonna end up with elegy and when it popped up I nearly screamed

[idle jacinth]

What are everybody 5*

[warped rune]

3 Eula’s in 80 here

[idle jacinth]

Lucky

[warped rune]

I am betting that i will lose next 50/50 on a banner i want

[rough spoke]

Hacks

my best luck has been klee on 20ish

[warped rune]

All the standards, C1 Kazuha, Ei, Childe, C1 Albedo, Kokonut

[median berry]

Yoimiya, Raiden, Kokomi, Diluc, Jean, Aloy, Mona, Childe & Hu Tao :3

[rough spoke]

Raiden Diluc c1, hu tao, mona, jean, qiqi zhongli albedo klee

[warped rune]

Well. 86. But close enough

[hybrid pier]

c1 qiqi raiden and eula

skipped hu tao

[warped rune]

Wtf

Damn

3 eulas

[rough spoke]

Hack

I call hacks

[warped rune]

Also my hu tao came on 79 too

[rough spoke]

same actually

[median berry]

I get all my five stars at wish 77 😂 only exception was Kokomi at 51 and Raiden at 21 💀

[warped rune]

Also

When tf is Sara coming back

[hybrid pier]

lemme see mine

[median berry]

Who knows haha

I got her C1 and want her at C2

[warped rune]

Bennett and sucrose are the ones in most of banners

I love Bennett but stop showing up 🤬

[warped rune]

I honestly was using starglitter to get wishes to get stardust to get mora 🥲

[warped rune]

HIS LAST BANNER WAS KAZUHA WHAT DO YOU MEAN

And then Eula happened

Sara reminds me of fischl

[warped rune]

No it wasn't?

Kazuha, then he came back for Albedo

+Eula

No?

He was on yoimia

Too

No??

Yes

Impossibke

I got him in yoimia banner

Him, sucrose and sayu

No

[hybrid pier]

no

[warped rune]

It was Xinyan

Yes

[hybrid pier]

diona

[warped rune]

Diona, Xinyan, and Sayu

What

Where tf did I get bennet

You can still get other 4 stars on event banners

Oh ye

Probably because of that

He hasnt been actually featured since Kazoo

😗my bad

Hope to see xingqiu soon tho

Btw

How do I do that

What

geo reaction

Peteify

Idk

You don’t 💪🏻

It makes enemies with a rocky thing

Can ningguang to that?

Like it makes enemies transfoem into rock

Cristalize?

I don't remember

No

Zhongli is the only one that can do that

Oh ok

Crystalize is Geo+any element and it drops a shield

Oh

I see thank toy

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avixA4XPnwU&ab_channel=VarsII

[hybrid pier]

i met an

amber main

so fake!

[warped rune]

ok, no one but one

[fluid atlas]

oof

[warped rune]

[hot fiber]

I know a few people who play Amber.

[warped rune]

One day I will try her as a main

on my list:
one shot amber

Machine gun fischl

[covert cradle]

Starter chars can be really strong with constellations but they are just insanely difficult to get

[hot fiber]

I'm naming the one shot amber build Whamber!

[covert cradle]

C5 Lisa power

If I get her C6 then I'll play her as main dps

Either I get lucky or wait till may next year if the Starglitter shop rotation remains as is

[hot fiber]

no lie, I'm hella tempted to get C6 Barbara.

[karmic python]

yes. They are. Kaeya is so underrated and hes actually very good.

and getting constellations for them is worse than getting C6 5*

[serene lake]

kaeya is quite decent

i use him on my freezemelt tao comp

[hybrid pier]

wtf i thought i had a kaeya const

c2 lisa kek

[covert cradle]

I built him as a cryo support for Diluc, they are basically made for each other, hu tao's CA pyro application is unfortunately too strong for continuous melt spam

[karmic python]

c1 kaeya, c3 lisa, c6 amber...

xD

[hybrid pier]

c0 amber

[karmic python]

Yeah.

I used him for Diluc, too

[covert cradle]

Bought C2 kaeya from the shop this month, it's almost as good for him as xiangling C4

[karmic python]

i should save the glitters and buy starter char const, too

instead of getting new fates XD

[covert cradle]

I run him on 4 eosf with skyward blade, currently in a Mona freeze comp with xiao

[serene lake]

i have only been spending my glitter on noelle consts

[covert cradle]

Great for keeping enemies in place for xiaos plunging attacks

[hybrid pier]

my friends xiao does 7k lmao

e i think

or ult

[hot fiber]

I don't know that I'd agree with this statement, it's not that you can't get them without spending mass money, it's that most never will because it would require use of primos for generic draws.

[covert cradle]

My xiao does 35k no buff at talents 9/9/9

[hot fiber]

nein nein nein!

[covert cradle]

[hybrid pier]

my eula is meh

[hot fiber]

sounds like you have not built her up yet.

she's not exactly a 'out the gate' kinda character.

[covert cradle]

My highest xiao dmg with the event buffs from the hilichurl arena

[hot fiber]

feels a bit churlish.

[hybrid pier]

shes alr tb

h

im getting trash arts

[hot fiber]

tarts make all the difference

[hybrid pier]

yes ik

[covert cradle]

Definitely, my buddy with a C6 eula and pines only hits for 300k currently 😅

[hybrid pier]

the highest i got w lvl 1 burst was

107k

w buffs

[hot fiber]

fuck I'd be happy with C1 Eula 😛

[warped rune]

Highest burst i’ve gotten so far is in a domain as Eula with baal on team

152k?

[hybrid pier]

i dont like ei thats jst my opinion

but grats

[warped rune]

Oh. I don’t have a baal

There was one on the team

[hybrid pier]

coop

lol

[warped rune]

I was playing Eula

[hybrid pier]

whenever i use hold e

with melt reaction

i get 25k

[hot fiber]

I like Ei.

[warped rune]

Eula C2 is so nice

[hot fiber]

Clum, are you building it, or just swipe hold?

[hybrid pier]

tryng to build

phys build

[hot fiber]

no I mean, hold E does significantly more damage if you've tapped E twice prior to use.

[hybrid pier]

nop i just

hold most of the

time

[warped rune]

Not dps-ing enough

[hybrid pier]

i got used to itcause

of razor

[warped rune]

Her pre-burst should involve tap E at least twice

[hot fiber]

best way to get the most out of Eula is tap E, tap E, burst, hold E (preferably before burst finishes)

[hybrid pier]

o

okay

ill try that later

[warped rune]

Hold E usually after burst starts because it resets the cooldown

[hot fiber]

tap E builds up her defense, hold E uses those charges and reduces enemy defense

[warped rune]

Forever lacking a phys cup 🥲

[hybrid pier]

i dont remember if i do it

[hot fiber]

both because it resets cooldown, and because the defense debuff makes the ult hit that much harder.

[warped rune]

https://keqingmains.com/eula/

[hot fiber]

Eula is more technical than most characters

in spite of her hulk smash design XD

Keqingmains.com seems like they might be biased... >.> lol

[warped rune]

the writer might be biased

but it's a really in depth thing about how to play eula

and her strenghts/weaknesses

i thought she was mostly a smash things until they die character

[opaque nacelle]

what's the "bias"?

[hot fiber]

Keqing...mains...

[hybrid pier]

the domain name

[warped rune]

as if that's a CON

[serene lake]

i believe these guides are generally writen by members of said characters communities.
so yeah they end up biased

[cinder quartz]

https://tenor.com/view/smile-nod-yes-robert-redford-beard-gif-10489927

[opaque nacelle]

I mean you are just being dumb about an obvious joke lol

[warped rune]

[warped rune]

Yoimiya is really pretty 👍

[warped rune]

https://tenor.com/view/yoimiya-yomayo-yoimiya-idle-genshin-impact-genshin-gif-21899630

[warped rune]

Yes

[hot fiber]

Yoimiya is also really bubbly, and I'm not entirely sure why they gave her the look I've mostly seen attributed to gambling women.

[warped rune]

it's the gap

[long loom]

So funny and beautiful . 🙂

[hot fiber]

I mean, her outfit is like half samurai half slut (at least for the period)

not that I don't like it, it just seems not to match her character

[warped rune]

i like how Yoimiya's design is completely asymmetrical

[hot fiber]

ass ymetrical

[warped rune]

i might pull for her next rerun

[hot fiber]

she's fun, I enjoy her play style

also she makes me happy simply by being so goddamn bubbly 😛

[muted spade]

I love yoimiya she is so much fun to play with imo shes better than hu tao in certain situations

[warped rune]

What's a good team for yoimiya? besides raiden

melt team?

[muted spade]

I have kazuha bennet and xingqiu with her

[rough spoke]

Fischl C6 kekw

[muted spade]

I also use fish and beidou

[rough spoke]

Imo if you want electro application fischl is equal to/better than raiden

[warped rune]

what about for a melt team?

Rosaria?

[rough spoke]

there aren't that many good cryo sub dps's actually

[hot fiber]

but Raiden is excellent synergy explicitly for Yoimiya, because of Yoimiya's tag team ultimate.

[rough spoke]

Mostly whales have both of them

[hot fiber]

I am not a whale >.<

[warped rune]

^

[rough spoke]

do you have both?

[hot fiber]

I just know what I like and play accordingly 😛

yes

[warped rune]

I love overloaded comp, but melt/vap sounds like could work for yoimiya

[rough spoke]

Thing is, melt isnt as used as vape for pyro chars because there just aren't that many great sub dps's from cryo

[warped rune]

Okay so if im pulling for her
Yoimiya
Xiangling
Diona
Rosaria

[rough spoke]

rather yoimiya, rosaria, diona, sucrose

[hot fiber]

yeh

[warped rune]

no pyro resonance?

[rough spoke]

-60% res>+25% atk

[warped rune]

[hot fiber]

you don't -need- it, technically don't need cryo resonance either unless you're hurting for crit rating

[warped rune]

well, both Diona and Rosaria's burst stay in the field

[rough spoke]

diona is a pog battery for rosaria tho
