Towards minorities

bennett is the only character to might have slightly break the fourth wallk
he said to traveler"youre like the protagonist of this world"
that isn't necessarily wall-breaking
but they are the hero of three nations
2 more than typical legends
ik
but he knows something
amogus
do any of u watch danmachi
bennnett share alot of ressembalance with bell
damn, TIL an obscure-ish anime I followed is getting another season finally.
still salty NGNL isn't getting a season 2 though
danmachi hm hm 
yea
sussy anime
no
it's pretty good
bennett and bell resemblances:
white hair
affiliation with luck
both wanted to be a greatest something perspective to the lore
fire related skill
always put others first
uses bladed weapon
I got so much PTSD I thought you meant this at first
I fear no man, but that thing-- it scares me.
dabell
I still have no idea who the other Bell is
ndhdbsiks
OH SOMEONE FROM ANIME
Nvm
This weapon will be so good, if only it was polearm 
ah did I miss the stream?
Not started yet
You’re good
guess they forgot about the livestream on youtube? my family's insisting on having lunch today, so will not make it in time ugh
ah.
taka gg is streaming it, and his stream allows to skip back in time, might just pause just before the livestream starts and watch it delayed
Yea YouTube is always 2-4hrs after the twitch live
But it’s the exact same content
yeah, but I want to view it myself and not read the summary when I come back from lunch lol
yanfei will be hearing about this
LMAO WHAT
the only time you post is cursed shit
A lot of creators are leaving genshin

The thing I love about genshin is~
You don't have to play it like 6hrs to complete a event
The graphics is great
The story is good
The side quests are great
Like for a student like who wants enjoy a game as well as study
This is perfect
You don't have to play it like 6hrs to complete a event
that damn dialogue in the albedo event quest took me 6 hrs to read what u mean
It is time gated?
no it was just long LMAO
Ofc if you do it altogether, it will long
I don't think it was that long
It wasn’t
it was long and boring
It was also good plot and more backstory on albedo.

Just like when dragonspine and albedo were first released every year we’ll get more albedo plot
To each there own I suppose
i dont want albedo content i want xinyan
Since it was boring to rhi, It would be long too

For me, it was good
Pretty much
Really good
Xinyan is ugly. And baby damage
I didn't even do the event, lol
I hope she never comes home again
She still has the 1 star greatsword that came with her
Ew
With time maybe
you gonna triple crown?
at least Taishan Mansion is easy to clear
the resistance domain is just pain
no stamina, no cooldown, 3 waves, and if one of the abyss mages drops their icicles, your shield is gone
52k shieldbot?
still love this video'
homa?
either way, it just sucks ass
taishan mansion you go in, swirl a bit, be done
think that domain has my fastest cleartime iirc
yeah homa
WT gave more hp
i think
i lost 5k going to homa
idr like taishan since i use ht/eula alot
the pyro dot breaks my reactions
the pyro braeks freeze also
hate it
I lost to WGS on rerun. should've not spent on polar star banner, and get the guarantee on homa. at least got stonethresher
that's nice
wonder what the weaps will be

hopefully there's a decent banner with amos
I hate WGS
I'd trade the WGS immediatly
Gross
<3
Give her up in a heartbeat
Have her at like c2
id give her my heartbeat
v2.4 Preview Stream https://www.twitch.tv/genshinimpactofficial is scheduled to go live at <t:1640520000:F>!
Countdown: <t:1640520000:R>
In the world of Teyvat — where all kinds of elemental powers constantly surge — epic adventures await, fearless Travelers!
Soon. Either makes or breaks our wallets
I can't watch it live, so will need to hope taka's stream doesn't get taken down while I watch it myself.
that assumes I want to wait 4h while everyone is talking already
Jokes on them, My wallet was empty already. Can't break me any more
kekw
yay freemos
Do it for the xiao
Ah the cost of trading your roof for a character
So worth it XD
I'm too tired for this snh
Shaking Ning's Head indeed
3min
shaking Ning head

twitch so buggy
Aww
am i allowed to convert paimon.moe into a discord bot?
Is that EU or are they universal?
universal, except maybe CN
Ohh alright tyty
lol
Same that song was AWFUL
how does this look
the leaks are real then lol
is her voice getting more and more muffled? not that I can understand her
Wait
Does this mean baruna
Has to REWORK paimon again
To fit the four banners If it’s a diff link code
4?
But the mechanics. If mihoyo the game changes the code again
PSNVJURZZSD9
this patch is hell for f2p
they looking fiiiine asf
Ikr
I neeeeeed both outfits
Ones for free afaik
The other one would be 13xx idk how much it was, but if its like Jeans
Lul
same price as jean, so around $30 AUD
$24USD ish? not sure about conversion rates
was it that much?
an australian
Its a lot for a Skin imo
Why whats up
it was around that much, or at least, you need to buy that gem pack to afford it (without 2x bonus)
i bought jean skin with like 5 welkins i think
Yeah or like 5x the äh Segen? U know the daily 90 primo Thing
yeah welkin
SOO UHMMM ANY CODES YET
SA7V2DRZGAU5, PSNVJURZZSD9, 5SPDKV8ZHBFV thanks to @boreal karma
new code:
SA7V2DRZGAU5
PSNVJURZZSD9
5SPDKV8ZHBFV
did I lag or did they get cut off? lol
stream is over now
use them asap is best, you never know when it'll just stop working... usually 24hrs but I wouldn't count on it
Until midnight same day
there was a date but I didn't screencap
Says timer on it
Good thing I always do 💀
WITH MY PULLS I GOT A C2 GOURO
oh the global codes have an end date shown
Mhm
Yeah I can use them when Im home, which is in like 5 hrs
that zhongli rerun actually real huh
its gonna be a real pain for f2p
ye
Yeah I cry already with welkins
same
luckily for me ganyu and xiao are instant skip, just debating the extra cons on zhongli vs shenhe vs hold out for dendro
also same
Yeah I wanted Zhongli and Ganyu, but I guess Ill wait for Ayaka and skip Ganyu
Zhongli idk if I will pull just for the shield
Pull ZL to mine.
Mwahahhaha.
the shield makes life super easy, imo one of the most worth characters to pull for
maybe wait until the banner 4* are announced so you can see if its more worth to wait
Yeah true
Just remember, you don't need to pull on day 1.
Obv
You can take the time to think it through then pull on the last few days.
I just want Senhe and Yun jin
Yeah Ik, Thing is, I want Kazuha more
And hes rumored to be after thoose 2 banners
4 banners in 2.4 is quite the absurd one
C2 is so damn good ngl
ye
too bad I don't want any of them. at most, C4 for zhongli, but not worth wasting a guarantee
4 Banners? U mean bc its 2 double
But yeah its crazy
shenhe xiao
zhongli ganyu
They really want our Christmas and new years money before we spend it on anything else
2.3 and 2.4 were each better than 2.1 anniversary, somehow
and I am glad yunjin is free
like compare that to 2.1
New boss uwu
significantly better
I like
wondering if its worth burning a guarantee on shenhe, without knowing whos comin up next patch
also, this image
i need info on yunjin but i think all my existing liyue 4 stars are c5 at least lol
No different from thinking whether there is a new iPhone coming up. In the end supports still outlast DPS.
It's only a headache if Kazuha comes hahaha.
enka looks really nice, glad I avoided all the leaks about it
Because atm, based on utility, Kazuha > Shenhe.
kazuha is definitely on my wishlist, but I've been doing fine with venti .... of course he will make life much easier
i wish i had kazoo 🙂
shenhe + kazu hehe
only the map and 2 pics of the Byakuyakoku - Dainichi Mikoshi tower were leaked by the reputable leakers
I have no plans to replace ayaka regardless of how strong future cryo dps are so I guess its more a matter of whether there will be dendro/other cool chara soon or not
can any of you help me figure out how much my account is worth if i sold it
nope
omg is it acc
same
Read the T&C that you agreed. That long essay.
omd i didn't know it was illegal whoops
I’m just happy to see Ningguang not in yellow lol
sadly, you'll find a LOT of account sellers on instagram, I chance upon them while browsing genshin content
was always thinking whether I should report or not but oh wells
You can sell, but there is a possiblity of it being banned.
And maybe you get IP blocked if they want to be extreme.
ah okay ty for explaining
keqing costume is neat, now keqing buff next pls
I have C1 keqing and don't use her. neither do I use ning. but damn those skins look way better
she will be inevitable one day 
ye they learnt their lesson from the jean skin
I hoped they made them swap colors
WHen you realise that the probability of you main-ing Keqing is so low... 😦
hello there
Nice to see keqing in not purple
yoo, is there any way to retrieve my lost paimon.moe data?
Nope because it is stored on your comp.
THE LARGE RIVER STYX RUNS THROUGH THE LANDSCAPE
EXCUSE ME; WHAT IS THIS CALLED?!?
a river.
Best is to try to see if you have a google drive backup.
Why surprised
also, overworld lectors and heralds?
just didn't expect that in a japanese island
Considering it was an ancient civilization made BEFORE Japan land existed
Anything is possible
but abyss lectors / heralds in overworld will be painful
indeed
bathysmal vishaps look annoying as well with them moving around on the environment
everytime i logged in it said drive sync not available now
damn you can switch BGM in the realm
Karaoke machine for housing
accurate
C0 trash incoming
Like Thoma is pyro xingqiu 
ehhh
Woo!! Zhongli banner is not first!! Gives me more time to save!
What is saving, I roll on every banner 
I've been saving for Venti for months
also the osial-ish boss looks interesting
Yeah!
jade chamber coming back yayy
Which one is that
Only for it to be potentially destroyed xD
Poor place cannot take a break
Just get someone to carry from official server.
Takes 5 mins~.
True lol
Theyve got some spare ones lying around
i'm going to idle more in there now that i've got the inazuma layout and they will let us mess with music
any recommendation whom should i pull for? xenhe/xiao/ganyu or zhong li. thanks
ganyu or zhong
thanks
xiao is need super op Anemo supporter (jean C4 , venti C2)
wtf
ok yeah I was weirded out by that at first as well, but that's why there are 2 VAs for her; one for normal, the other for the chinese opera
yeah
really? thats cool
fischl rerun when its already 9 banners
bruh
Looks like maybe need to scan RL QR code?
New codes SA7V2DRZGAU5, PSNVJURZZSD9, 5SPDKV8ZHBFV
really looking forward seeing this for the first time ingame
wait like, any of the genshin ost?
pog
idk if all
but apparently you can get more from traveling salesperson and other means
Is Zhongli a f2p friendly?
i want xiao and zhongli so bad . im hoping i get xiao at early pity so i have time to save for zhongli
he doesn't add too much damage to the team as a whole, unless you build him burst supp with homa, but if you just want a shieldbot, you really only need the HP% tassel + the 2pc bonus from Tenacity of the Millelith on triple HP%
https://ac-p.namu.la/20211226s1/985c08c72d7aae1c64ee96e1ba7b7c1c145a7ee674a2a110cb9b9176306f4024.mp4
Yun Jin is doomed....
A voice that fits perfectly with the standby motion
Might just be me, but the voice sounds really unstable.
BTW: who tf made this art, and hand it over
I wonder who will she be shipped with
also, fun fact: Dragonspine takes reference to the Matterhorn in the Alps
Oo
Me omw to get zhongli and xiao knowing I don’t have polearms😍🥰🤪
I have xiao and zhongli
it's so weird
that they're running shenhe with xiao
it's like they know shenhe won't sell that well?
more like shenhe and xiao might be related more closely than ganyu and zhongli for the 2.4 story
it doesn't relaly make sense from a fianncial standpoint imo
it's splitting money between banners
i mean there's only so much a person is willing to spend in a month
kinda an odd decision if u ask me
Thats what a sane person would say
leakers are saying that as well
i mean if its a welkin buyer they'll most likely buy welkin every month anyway'
Yeah but one welkin per month is not as much as someones paycheck a Banner 
y'know i kinda wanna skip zhongli and ganyu's
I mean tbh for some players (whales) thats spare money but for others thats a whole pay
I might whale for some char if they seem interesting
C2 is his best con tbh
thinking about it, i dont use ZL as much these days as i before
and any whale already has everyone but yunjin and shenhe next patch, and they are saving for C6 yae in 2.5
im actually not sure if i care that much about Yae either
no like, her char's cool but .. its definitely not the best, half the leaks i've seen are saying shes op, the other half say that shes trash
so from both, meta and waifu standpoint im not sure
People are hyped
that is true
Almost everyone is saying 2.4 is good
2.4 seems amazing
Broo I am sacrificing so much not picking zhongli
Just coz Yae
daymn
But it is what it is
any ""leaks"" prior to 2.5 start are dubious at best
Overall i'd still prefer kazoo over yae
I can imagine C0 yae being a C6 fischl though, like C0 itto is a C6 noelle
zhongli is second half, so if yae is trash, you can still pick him up
We that would suck, but it is what it is
To put in a diff perspective, you are just not getting ZL now.
anemo is a better element than electro overall and just because electro chars have higher base stats that doesn't mean shit
Made up my mind, unless she is like amber level trash I will pick her up
if i wanted high base stats i'd go geo
Most of leakers are hyping her to be the "best electro" Character
But it is copium
Dunno really
and a lot of people were saying sara's gonna be the new bennett
but guess how that turned out
Yes
and she doesnt heal, lets not forget that
c6 zl actually
I would build her if I have C6
is pretty interesting
Only then
the reputable ones don't, actually. they just post info on her as they hear, no numbers or anything.
so from the reputable source, she's just ?????
his c6 actually doesn't heal as much
That's what I heard
But I dont know

Lmao
kequing, beidou, fischl and c2 raiden
kq is the only main dps
Raiden only tbh
C2 raiden
phys beidou, phys fischl
i mean phys beidou and fischl kind of defeat the point of electro dps
I mean when was the last time you've seen an electro kequing?
Let's see we will know almost everything we need by the end of 2.4
If she is coming in 2.5
But again, I don't think genshin is too difficult, so even amber can clear abyss
Anyone can be a dps, lmao
so yae competes only with raiden, who most people use for a xiangling/eula battery rather than a dps
I don't think she is gonna be bad
she isn't gonna be bad
none of the inazuma chars are as bad as people say
Kazuha was speculated to be mediocre at best
Lmao
Ayaka people were saying her dash's gonna ruin her kit
Yoimiya was said to be trash
.. and now whales use her more than hu tao
C1 is OP
C6 is just God
But he is anemo
Anemo is the best element in game, coz swirl and VV
Raiden was said to be shit because of her not working with beidou
guess what, shes in 2/5 meta teams rn
Let's even if she is bad,
kokomi was said to be the most shit 5* ever
Unless she is worse than koko who has -100% crit rate, then maybe I won't pull for her
Maybe
yet people who have her use her a lot
Cause swirl only need EM and levels. 🙂 But the problem with anemo is you need something to swirl hahahaha.
Wait people run solo anemo?
2 anemo 2 geo is pog
Most of the enemies do offer elements
4 anemo... who would you even run?
Crystalise
C6 kazuha is something to behold, but sucrose in a taze comp is the real monster
Lami
for fun 🥺
Lemme get beidou
like.. jean for a healer, kazuha for everything else, sucrose for em buff
who goes in the 4th slot?
Venti for flex
Lmao kazuha for everything else
I run sucrose diona fischl xingqiu
and now that I got sac frags for sucrose, this will be a thing of beauty
Suck em up my ball, I mean venti burst
I mean lets be honest, kazuha can solo a lot of the content in the game at c6 easily
Yes
and faster than zhongli*
Waiting for sixth rerun lmao
even before c6 he can still clear it, it just might be a bit tedious due to the lack of healing
Yeah
so if you get jean and kazuha you can clear the game easily
but then the thing is, if its a full anemo team who are the other 2?
I mean hes awesome on C0 already xD but maybe not run him solo awesome xd
oh right, C6 increases the damage kazoo does by like 200%
if 4th character is xiao, he isn't needed
you just E, click, Q, E, Click and everything dies
if 4th char is sayu, you have jean
I mean, Venti, becazse if we use Jean we already got a healer so Sayu is out
But like
if we get venti, I guess he could work, but he isn't needed either
Sucrose also kann pull good, maybe not that good good
you've got sucrose and kazu for CC
and if its anemo traveler...
He
Take cyro and pyro
Sucks
you have jean and sucrose, you already have em
ah yes, amber and aloy
Not to mention God like energy recharge
ok for anemo traveler i didn't say it right, you already got all his skills
once you get R5 sac frags on a C1+ sucrose, you just have 3 E uses whenever you want lol
i use r3 and i can still clear overworld mostly with sucrose and diona
like.. diona e, sucrose E E E ... maybe Q if anything's alive
I just got my R1 sac frags yesterday, immediatly got it to 90
I wonder if ayato will be hydro shenhe
AND I WASTED ALL MY RESIN ON ARTIFACTS
I typically use fischl and sucrose to clear overworld stuff nowadays
but currently have noelle in my party to get a feel for her. her artis still suck, but 34k autos are neato
^?
no idea
We dont know anything at all yet
Should I go for mora1️⃣, mora+wits2️⃣, or wits3️⃣ marvelous boxes?
what did I just join into
i have 50 saved and i thought that was a lot
now thats a lot of money
Yes XD
i mean u can farm 600k a day
just through resin
if you really wanted to you could prob farm that amount in 3 weeks
but that's resin everyday
yes but why wud s1 do that lol
I only do 1 mora leyline a day for achievement counter
Actually had only about 60 leylines done total when I reached ar56; felt that I would never get 800 done if I keep waiting to do leylines only when I need them
GUYS
BREAKING NEWS
They nerfed her bellybutton
https://i.imgur.com/luEprgMh.jpg
Thank god
hand it over
Whose?
Shenhe
Ohh ic. Atleast it's not kokomi
just noticed that, quite funny they are next to eachother
my higest is exactly 6, on sayu, funilly enough
my highest is diona at c21 too
Hi everyone! Could I ask for someone to explain to me how pity at wishes work? I'm at Paimon.moe entering my log of pulls but I don't know what pity it has nor anything... At this point I still haven't figured out how that works, and I want Zhongli and Xiao when they come out... 
Do you know how basic pity works first?
I don't think so...
To sum it up, you need to first know that 90 pulls is hard pity. This is when you are guaranteed a 5*.
But then the 5* will first be 50/50, meaning 50% chance to get the featured char, or 50% chance to get one of the standard 5*s.
Ok
If you get the featured char, great, then you are back to square 1.
If you don't get the featured char (you get one of the standard 5*s), you enter what is called guaranteed.
Meaning you need to queue up to 90 pulls again, but the next 5* is guaranteed to be the featured char.
This is the main foundation of the pity system.
So far so good?
Yes! Got it
So let's build on this.
Know that if you get the featured 5* at any point in time, you go back to square 1. Regardless of what count you are at.
And this accumulation of pity can be carried over to the next featured banner. However, banner pity is kept within the banner.
So there are 2 kinds of banners (featured banners and standard banners). They both use diff fate currencies.
So featured banner pity stays within featured banner. But if the char changes, the pity is carried over.
Our focus will be on featured banners, since standard banners don't change.
That one, I got it... I've been saving up "pink" wishes for the next gachapon to try and pull a good character
Now, there is this thing called soft pity. Meaning the rates of getting a 5* gradually increase.
This happens on your 76th pull if you still haven't gotten a 5*.
And the more you pull the more it increases, until 100% at the 90th pull.
Now, comes the newest feature, double banners. The featured banners share pity. Meaning if you pull on #1 and fail 50 times, you start of the other banner at 50 pity.
so, just noticed this character in Demon Slayer has the same VA as Raiden Ei lol
Do 5* weapons also count in the same pity? I have done before a 10x pull in the character banner and haven't gotten any 5* character but a 4 or 5* weapon
Let's stay with char first.
Weap banner is a diff ballgame.
LoL.
No, no
Not weapon banner
In the same char banner, instead of characters, I've gotten good weapons
In featured, you only get 5* char.
You can only get 5* weap from standard banner, or weap banner.
Standard banner is well.. standard... mixture of char and weap.. but limited in what they offer. You can see their offerings via details tab.
Ok, must be mistaken then
The 5* list of char and weap doesn't grow. The only growth is when new 4 stars are added to the game.
But that's pretty much it for featured char banner and pity system.
So far so good?
Yws!
Now let's come to weap.
This is a diff ball game altogether.
Hard pity is at 80. That's the only good news.
When you hard pity, you have a 50% change to either get the featured weap or something else.
The problem is, there are 2 featured weaps.
LoL
Yeah, I've chosen between those before
And that's not the end of the bad news too.
For char banner, you need 1 failed 5* to get a guaranteed for the next.
For weap banner, you need 2.
So for char, worst case is 180 wishes.
Whereas for weap, worst case is 240 wishes.
So char is quite "easier"
im luckier with weapon tbh
If you fail to chart it, you don't earn the guaranteed.
Unlike char, where it's auto.
There have been many cases where people thought they select it, but fail to chart it.
Oh, wow. That's important
They end up losing the 50/50 for weap 3 times instead of 2.
So far so good?
Because the bad news doesn't stop here.
Ok, another question. So, if I do a 10x pull, and don't get the 5* char/weapon, it counts 10 separately or one altogether?
It counts by single pulls. So if you pulled 10 and don't get, you get 10 pity.
If you got it on the 7th within the 10 pull, it means you are on 3 pity.
The records will be in your wish history.
So "theoretically" it is ideal to do single pulls from 76th pull onwards to benefit from the increased soft pity.
It's best to single pull all the way, though it might not be too practical to some people.
So far so good up till here?
Yes!
Now let's go back to the weap banner.
Shoot away.
Isn't it better to 10x pull though? To get better things?
supposedly I do a 10 pull and I get my char on 1st itself
10 pulls are just 10 single pulls. No diff in anything. But it is theoretically better to single pull. Because if you get it on the 1st pull, there is no need to pull another 9 times.
So agreed I made 9 extra pulls, but it just ends up adding to pity, right?
Yes. But remember that building pity is one of the worst things to do.
Building pity is either:
- An excuse to pull.
- An illogical reasoning.
I mean I ended up building it, without actually doing it to build it
What 4★ characters will be there in 2.4 banners?
Because I can throw it back and ask, "Why not build pity on the banner that you really want?"
I mean if I am pulling to build pity? then I agree- it is risky
Only know the New 4*
For now
It's about how min max you want to be when it comes to 10 pulls.
But doesn't it say that 10 pulls guarantee a 4* weapon?
I personally just 10 pull all the way.
But Let's say I end up building pity due to 10 pulls, then it just counts in the next cycle
Yes. But most 4* weap is irrelevant.
And you rarely if never pull for 4* weap / char because they are never guaranteed.
This means you can pull 180 times get 2 5*s but never get a single 4 star that you want.
That is why never pull a banner for 4* regardless.
Oooh... Ok
THeoretically, you will likely get it. But it is also possible you never ever get it.
Worst still you ruin your luck and get a 5*.
Yes, always expect the worst 
But just to reiterate, NEVER EVER BUILD PITY.
This term "building pity" is almost as bad as "f you".
I have seen too many cases of people wasting and "ruining" their pity / guaranteed by what they call "building pity". IMO it's just an excuse to pull.
Don't pull on any banner where you don't want the 5.* This is the golden rule.
Wrt to this, I got 1 thoma in 77 pulls
A single Thoma
But anyways, so far so good?
So... To put it with a practical case... I would really like to get Xiao or Zhongli. I've managed to get 58 "pink" wishes (don't know the name in English). What's my best strategy? Don't so any wishes until they come out and then single pull?
Because we have yet to come to the worst part of weapons banner.
"building pity" == shooting yourself to 'become resistant to bullets'
Lmaoo
Let me put this one side first and touch on the weapons banner, which is the last of banner matters.
Ok
So remember that char banners where you missed the first 5* (getting the featured char and getting a standard one) and then having the next guaranteed?
^ This feature is automated and brought over to the next banner. This means if you missed getting featured on A, if it rotates to B (no longer on A), you can use the guaranteed to get B.
Bit late to the convo but just wanted to add that yes, 10 pulls guarantee a 4*, but 10 single pulls also count as 10 pulls. So if you do 10 single pulls, worst case you get a 4* at the 10th.
But then again, I agree with Kyrie in that it's bad to pull for 4s only, only pull if you want the 5 (or at the very least wouldn't mind it, and you are not interested in getting any 5* that could come next soon after).
THEY DON'T?
This means if you failed twice. You are supposed to get the guarantee on the 3rd. But if you don't get it on that banner, it disappears on the rotation.
Srly?
The guarantee is accumulated by what is called "fate points".
The epitomised path or whatever is called
Ok, so weapon banner is death.
Remember you need to plot the fate path?
Each time you fail, you accumulate 1 fate points.
Fate points DO NOT bring over.
So if you roll on the weap banner, you better make sure you get the featured.
Worst case is failing 2 times, so 80+80 + (final) 80 = 240.
Oh, gotcha! Thanks!
weapon banner carries over whether or not you won the 75:25; however, the weapon banner does not carry over the teccy points
If you don't get the 5* you want in its banner, you have to start from scratch next, only thing that carries over is pity (and 50/50, to my understanding), not the fate points.
50/50 no. Pity yes.
So weapon banner are REALLY expensive in comparison
So to build on this, pity is carried over. Remember 80 wishes to hard pity on weapons banner right?
the 75:25 is carried over in weapons banner
If you got 70 wishes in and still no 5*, this 70 pity is brought over if the banner rotates.
However, the guarantee isn't brought over.
I JUST SAID the teccy points are NOT carried over lol
Weap banner is meant for the highest tier of whaling.
As an F2P, you might prefer staying away from weapon banner and using your pink fates for characters that you want
Ok, so the soft pity is indeed carried, hard pity and guaranteed don't
🐋 Whaling Tiers 🐋

5* Char of Choice
5* Weap of Choice
Constellations
Refinement
Soft and hard are carried.
if you don't get one of the two rate-up 5stars (losing the 75%), you will have a 100% of getting one of the two weapons next time
the scam points aren't carried over
I've been doing mostly that
Soft is when it starts gradually increasing the %. Hard is the fixed final number that is 100% regardless.
Agreed THEIR SIGNATURE WEAPON WILL GIVE AMAZING RESULTS
But You don't need the weapon to play. You can technically clear most of the game with non-sig weapons and 4 star weapons too
To my understanding, if you get a non rate-up 5* weapon in the weapon banner, and the banner ends, the next 5* in the other banner is guaranteed to be any of the 2 rate-up weapons, no? Not necessarily the one you want and chose on the epitomised path?
So let's go back to this.
My personal opinion is that if you don't have 180 wishes, don't touch any char banner. Or else you need to be content with playing with fire.
The fate path resets when banner changes
remember when people all fawned over C6 R5 diluc / WGS combo?
he's the baseline nowadays; a baseline quite a few 1.0 4stars can beat
You have no business playing with RNG especially if you are not a whale.
we aren't talking fate path yet
Ah
Yeah, but I mean the 75:25
^
I misunderstood XD
we have said so like 50 times by now between Ater and I that we mean the 75:25
Does it suck because you just started playing? Yes. But you need to remember that everyone went through the same path of not being able to get the char they want from the start.
also
2.4 has 4 banners; 3 reruns
you will get your chance for the character you want
eventually
F2 Pain XD
This surprised me to bits ngl
You can gamble if you really want that char, but you need to be really sure and at least be prepared not to get that char if you don't have 180 wishes.
I saw it coming, and people called me crazy, despite me agreeing with leakers at the time
What surprises me the most is Shenhe alongside someone else, since she's new, but oh well xD
Think Venti might come next patch? If so, I'm so dead lmao
2.5 will be another inazuma patch
In my opinion, you can keep looking at rumors and decide who you wanna prioritise. Supposedly you hear Raiden will get a rerun in 2 months, and you REALLLY WANT HER: then skip everything in between and aim at 180 fates for Raiden
However, you see Raiden coming and think it'd be neat to have her- but don't mind it if you don't get her- then you can wish and hope on 50-50
raiden rerun + character for the inazuman story quest, prob Yae
think how 1.5 had zhongli rerun
Ye, but Venti, afaik, had his last rerun before Zhongli's. But it being Inazuma does make it unlikely. But idk. xD
No Kazuha it seems, right? A lot of people had been saying Kazuha/Raiden, but idk either
childe already kills any connection between playability and banner frequency
Well, that's true LMAO
Childe Impact
venti will get a rerun when we go back to mondstadt. might be 2.6 or 2.7, might be 2.9 for all we know
I mean it could be Raiden/Yae and Kazuha/Ayato
some leaker's source said something about kazuha being in 2.6, since 2.5 was a bit more dense. and kazuha is back in liyue after the events of 2.1
I see, I guess we'll see Venti on that Mondstadt event I don't know the name of lmao
Makes sense
Ludi Harpastum?
Fish Blasting Events🥰😍
Windbloom or Windrise or something ajshdh
Ahhh
1.4 was windblume.
I wasn't there for it the first time
Isn't the hide and seek windblume?
hide and seek was 1.5
Yeah, realised after sending it lmao
In any case, if 2.5 is only Yae and Raiden, at least I'll be able to save the full patch. x'D I mean, I do want Yae and Raiden, but they're aren't priority for me so I'd rather save for Venti and maaaybe Ayato.
the speculation is there will be at least one more unit,because character banner 2 is a thing, and we got more 5stars than 4stars now
Maybe Yoimiya or Ayaka?
I want Yoiiii🥺
In any case, I'd also be fine skipping them. I'd like C2 Ayaka but that can wait until later, and I don't want Yoi in my main account. C2 Yoi sounds nice on my side, but constellations in general are lower priority than say Zhongli, Xiao, Venti, Ganyu and Ayato lmao.
Rn I'm torn between using my guarantee on Xiao and risking it on Zhongli or skipping Xiao. I was prepared to spend a bit of money already for Zhongli but idk, ahh.
Wish Ganyu and Xiao were inverted lmao.
I'm more interested in Rhinedottir and Alice showing up than any other character atm
especially since Rhinedottir is connected to the Rhine, its myths and history in multiple ways
Oh, those two are interesting! But will probably take quite a while before we see them. I'm curious about what they'll do with Dain, if he does become a playable character, but I know that'd wait till basically the end of the game, most likely lmao.
I'm also curious about the whole "fake archon" thing in Sumeru a lot of people talk about, but we'll see.
Wasnt there speculation that 2.5 is Yae/Raiden Ayaka/Kazuha
but I mean, we dont know shit yet and there are always speculations
Yep, maybe around 2.6 or later, but again, we don't really know.
I'm personally hyped for him lmao but I don't know much about his kit, so. In any case, another hydro user that isn't a catalyst (specially a catalyst healer) is absolutely welcomed by me lol.
it wouldnt surprise me if we get a double banner with ayato and his sister ayaka as the rerun
I feel as though if ayato appears, ayaka will have a lot of relevance bc theyre siblings so its a good oppurtunity to have her rerun then
Yeah, that makes sense
but who knows
We coould get like Yae, Yoi and Raiden 2.5 and then Ayato, Ayaka and Kazuha? in 2.6. But this is just very wild speculation on my part lmao.
Do you guys think Sara could be in any of the banners next patch? I kinda hope so, so I can maybe get her C2 on my main account were I'd like to try her with Keqing (I have her C3 in my side account and no use for her LMAO) but if Raiden is coming soon, she might be again in her banner and I'd have to skip, oof.
I kinda want Sara and Xingqiu in any of the banners next patch. So I could grab C2 Chongyun for free lmao. I was planning Yunjin but I'm most likely gonna pull on Xiao's anyways, so.
IF raiden is in 2.5 i think sara is only going to appear on her banner 😭
Ooh, I played with Kazuha in this last event and I looooved him. I really want him
the real question is where fish?????? she hasnt been seen in forever and im so close to c6 😭
And I agree! So excited for Ayato! It seems like it will be a perfect siblings team
Ayato and Ayaka might become the ultimate freeze duo and I for one am excited for that
:0 Kokomi, I absolutely forgot about her ahshajdjja
In any case, guessing all of the Inazuman characters will get a rerun before Sumeru drops, but who knows
lurking qiqi
i think everybody before 2.3 will 100% get a rerun before sumeru
not sure about itto getting one before sumeru but its also possible
honestly if they do a windblume rerun its possible theyll do venti and klee together
I wanna get a bow character and idk who to pick between Yoi and Venti (Assuming I get to pick lmao)
Imo i think its possible that 2.5 could be half mondstadt half inazuma with a windblume rerun in the one half and inazuman stuff in the other half
kinda like this one!
we had the dragonspine event in mondstadt and the second half brought us back to inazuma for ittos story quest
just wait like 2 weeks for the beta to start
Ohh right, forgot to specify up until now. Itto and the next ones might have to wait until a bit after Sumeru drops, but who knows.
i dont think any character will be coming from there since its kinda like dragonspine an "ancient" region
What I've seen so far, only speaks about trials of courage, so you might be right...
hello fellas, i just want a piece of advice. should i pull for ganyu or zhongli? the only five star i have is eula, so i really want zhongli…but ganyu is also really good… what do you guys think? ( sorry i’m a beginner so i don’t know much )
well
I think Zhongli would be good for you
ganyu can be used as a dps if you don't use national
or another 4 star team for abyss
because eula cant be in both
If you do have a 4star team however, zhongli definitely one of the best 5*s out there
This is all from a meta standpoint. If you want zhongli, go for zhongli, the game can be cleared with 4 star teams
TL:DR
If you have 2 teams go for zhongli, if you have 1 team go for ganyu
imo supports are less likely to get power crept in the near-future, while ganyu is still regarded as the best dps, there are a ton of other contenders that can relatively keep up with her, zhongli is the best shield, has good scaling and can also lower resistance
supports are just harder to power creep and esp one like zhongli
hes essentially a power sub-dps and shielder in one unit
So is zhongli confirmed?
yeah
Childe with tartaglia as well?
oooo, thank you guys i really appreciate it!

Glad i could help
I may be pulling for zhongli
y'know, for some reason I actually hate the metaslaves in this game.
Like.. in a lot of other games it's fine, but here... the difference between metaslaves and TCs is way too big
Well
Metaslaves are the ones who just laugh at you if you use any team other than the meta 5
TCs are the ones who've discovered the meta 5 and try out new teams to see if they work
the amount of people telling me to pull ganyu over c1 xiao like 🧍♂️ xiao is my favorite character and I already have ayaka do I LOOK like I want ganyu?
EXACTLY
Like... i remember going in mtashed's for a bit (huge rant in #🧂・salt afterwards)
Half of the chars in game are shit because they aren't in the meta 5 in their opinion
I try to not take advice for pulls often, i want klee and zhongli because i like them
I love TC people they are so GOOD at figuring out the best use of every character
Yeah
thats how we got tankfei
Yes
meta slaves would just call yanfei a 4-star klee
no, most whales i've seen are actually pretty casual
most whales are just simps
a non whale meta slave must be one sad slave, lol
yes, most whales are just simps
