As much as you can get, though keep ER in mind if you don't have her C1/sac fragments. I'm currently running her on around 400 EM, but usually a well built Sucrose will have over 800
got R2 sac but c0
That could be fine indeed, and tbh on a Hu Tao team you don't really need her ult anyways (at least I don't use it often because it can mess with reactions, unless you make sure to infuse it with hydro) so yeah, I'd go ahead and go triple EM if you have the pieces
Nowadays how hard are Xingqiu and Bennett to get? As in, how often do they show up on banners?
I don't think there's any denying that they are some of the best characters in the game
@modern raven has leveled up to LEVEL 3 
Xingqiu is in current banner
I knew that but how often are they on banners
Hmmm I don't know how often they do show up but they're not particularly rare (like Fischl, until now). Plus both show up on the starglitter shop, so you can get them guaranteed.
There's no established pattern
I'm still wondering why Fischl doesn't appear on banners anymore
We haven't gotten her featured ever since 1.6 Klee banner
Should I put a healing bonus circlet on Xingqiu?
She will be next banner
rlly?
It was an issue with her JP voice actor afaik
It's officially announced
I wouldn't but if you want him to be full support and maximise his healing, go ahead
fischl was because VA problems
Why?
it's disappointing that the issue happened
not that we'll be getting her next banner
Could summarize Raiden's role in battle as a superior version of Fischl's?
Apparently razor has some VA problems too?
?
i thought it was ozs CN va ?
Depends on the comp, on some situations, yeah
But iirc Fischl's electro applications is faster (aka her ICD is lower)
Plus Fischl can't really fill the role of main dps as Raiden can, if you run Raiden as main dps
Not sure tbh, I remember reading it was JP but not sure
im p sure its CN not jpn
unless it was both ?? 💀
aw hell naw
😭
What does national team mean?
Well, it's usually Xiangling/XQ/Bennett/flex
Original version had Chongyun as flex
Then Sucrose (which is better afaik)
chongyun 😳
No explain to me what the structure of a national team is please
Then there was Xiangling/Childe/Bennett/Sucrose (now could be Kazuha instead of Sucrose), which afaik is one of the highest damage variation
Not sure what you mean then?
The core of national is its characters
They do follow a specific rotation
But it always involves Xiangling, Bennett and XQ (only exception is in Childe's version)
Newest version is Xiangling/Bennett/XQ/Raiden
There's also Xiangling/Bennett/XQ/Kazuha
like how do characters in a national team interact with each other
It relies on Bennett buffing Xiangling's burst (which snapshots) and then reverse vaping it, either via XQ or Childe
I recommend watching a video though, as I'm sure there are plenty that explains it much better than me
Should I build both Emblem Set on Xiangling and xingqui?
Sub dps for melt is a waste
And raiden
i have yoimiya as main
so i wanted to make sub DPS ganyu so i can melt
They shouldn't ever be in the same abyss team
You can't really melt anyways, you'll end up reverse melting with Ganyu due to ICD
what is ICD?
so, better ganyu main DPS if i dont have better pyro?
@quartz marsh has leveled up to LEVEL 5 
Ganyu xiangling bennett flex
Yoimiya yunjin fischl flex
Maybe xingqiu for you
Internal Cooldown. Let's take Yoimiya, for example. When her E is active, each arrow does pyro damage, right? The damage number is orange. However, not every arrow applies pyro, and therefore can trigger a reaction.
Only her 1st, 3rd and 5th arrow actually apply pyro, considering you attack without interruption
I have a team featuring Ganyu, Xiangling, Bennett, and Diona. Would this be a good layout: Ganyu, Xiangling, and Bennett will use their bursts whenever possible and in a good position(but especially Ganyu) and Diona provides shielding and particles for Ganyu. Bennett is main dps. Do you think this works?
bennett is a what?
there a problem?
The standard ICD (applies to most characters, but there are exceptions) is 2.5s or 3 hits. This is, every 3rd hit will be able to apply pyro, and also every 2.5s.
Asides from this, there's also elemental gauges. To not delve into this too much, this means that if you do, for example, pyro and then cryo, a pyro aura will remain (and the damage bonus is 1.5 to the cryo hit); this is known as reverse melting. If you do cryo and then pyro, aka a forward melt, the damage bonus to the pyro hit is 2.0 but there will be no element remaining. This is why there really isn't a meta team that forward melts (or forward vapes), since due to ICD and elemental gauges, it's really impractical and you'll most likely end up doing a reverse reaction, amplifying the support damage instead. Only exception I know of (though not a meta team) is Bennett paired with Chongyun, though idk, maybe with another support with enough cryo application could work too.
So what could I do instead?
Not sure, but I'd go with melt Ganyu instead. Basically same team but Ganyu as dps instead.
So what is my layout?
This one was replying to Pancks especifically though, but it kinda relates to xolrz question too.
Dont use ganyu Q and use zhongli instead
You apply pyro with xiangling, then reverse melt both hits of ganyu Charged Shot
too bad i don't have zhongli
What Falthis said, though imo Diona can work fine
since i don't have zhongli i use diona as shielder
Then use diona shield, or tankfei, or yunjin
Just make sure her shield is good enough so Ganyu doesn't get interrupted when charging her shots
what is tankfei supposed to be? I assume it has to do with Yanfei, and mine is C0(somewhat built though)
okay im starting to get the hang of it
You need C4
so me using tankfei is out of the question. What's it's playstyle though?
ER HP HP with prototype amber on 2TM 2ESF
You basically drop her EQ, pick up the particles, then swap out
You have 15s of a pyro shield equal to 45% of her max HP
i see
Basically, while you have 5s less uptime, in which you should spam xiangling EQ, bennett EQE, then swap to yanfei for EQ, the shield is potentially stronger
I'm glad! It can be a bit of a complex subject tbh but I hope I didn't make it harder to understand x'D
How well would Diluc and Chongyun work together?
I mean a national team
You'd probably want to run XQ with them regardless but I'm guessing not too bad
I wouldn't put an EM focused set on neither, EoSF is the best option currently for both
Xiangling does want EM though
XQ doesn't, as he usually is the aura, not the trigger
For my Melt DPS Ganyu do I want EM or ATK sands?
I mean emblem set sorry for confusing 😹
Ah alskdjla then yeah, EoSF for both is good xD
Depends on the rest of the substats, but afaik both could work. If you go by EM sands, be sure to still have enough attack though.
Though you're running her with Bennett, so there's that
you want like 200EM with 4WT (or maybe 4SR)
Xiangling + 4 Crimson or 4 Emblem?
^ More than 200EM will probably be a bit too much, if it means ignoring other stats
Oop, too late
I'd go with 4 emblem
CW can work but farming EoSF is just better (and less painful overall)
What is the best way to get fragile resin?
So that I can consistently restore my supply of condensed
You really can't afaik, just BP, some events iirc, and buying transient resin once a week from the teapot
Some AR ascensions also give fragile resin
how do i get transient resin
how do i level up my pot
using pot currency
Buying it once a week from the teapot, but yeah, you need to level the pot iirc
Increasing the trust rank, it's in-game how to do this
so just building stuff ic
What is the hardest set to farm?
So far it has been noblesse and crimson
at least for me
Tbh it depends on your luck
If you mean the domain itself, it's subjective
I struggled with CW at some point, now it's just mildly annoying (but that's because I'm using my friendship team, not my regular team)
I've never done the NO domain that I remember so can't say about it
haha NO domain
Noblesse Oblige xD
NO domain you can just use anemo traveler and shred those 3 abyss shield against each other
the NO domain is hard for me because of how the mages freeze me and my geo characters are trash
Lol
If u wanna cheese it
Go to pyro first, then you can kill the cryo one asap
After that is pretty breeze
Make sure not to draw attention from hydro
would you actually recommend bringing a geo character
Cuz the bubble is annoying
U can cheese with any tbh
Just bring 2 element and anemo/electro
fisch auto attack can do wonder :p
so melt team then
that's what i used before i got ganyu/hutao
Would you agree that overload is the worst reaction(unless burning counts)?
No it's not
It's only the worst if you're trying to do it melee
Actually yeah shatter is worse
It's pretty good for Yoimiya and Yanfei
Shatter is a reaction? Interesting
Overload has the highest damage scaling of all the reactions (at least from the transformative ones)
It is, and I'd agree that it's the worst, but it has its uses
it does?
Imo it's fun to run Razor with shatter (Razor, double cryo and XQ, basically)
Yeah
what does scaling mean
Now melt and vape are amplifying reactions so their damage solely relies on the original hit
Well, how much damage it does
For example, if a skill says it does 300% of your character's attack, that's the scaling
IIRC, overload scales on EM and level
Is overloaded good for beginners, but vape/melt will catch up later on?
OL is only good for ranged dps(s) like yoimiya, yanfei. That's it
Just don't ever play overload with a melee character lmao
The only one that is good enough on melee is Raiden on national, but that's about it
Although overloaded can't crit nor does it take ATK into account while vape/melt do
Yeah, but again, vape/melt depends entirely on your character stats
If your normal hit does 1k, a vape won't make it much better
Is Shenhe bad like people are saying she is?
Just because she's not a DPS doesn't make her bad, but yeah she's a niche character
I know she's not a DPS she's a support
Only supposed to buff Cryo attacks that is
But yeah I see why people say she's bad since she only works with characters like Ganyu or Ayaka
She's niche, and tbh could have better buffs considering she's a 5*
But she's fine if you're a dedicated Ayaka or Ganyu player (even other stuff like Rosaria, Kaeya, etc)
what weapon do you absolutely regret sacrificing?
for some reason i sacrificed my R3 Rainslasher to Blackcliff on Diluc
i regret it so much
Lol! You guys use weapons as fodder? Not me.
shenhe is good, but you basically can only play her with a cryo DPS
she adds quite some damage to the team actually, especially on a mono cryo comp like shenhe diona chongyun rosaria
She's a niche support who does her job worse than generic supports, so by that metric she's "bad"
However, using her in her niche keys you use the generic supports elsewhere, and her support is fine I guess
Shes usable though
who is the best shielder that is not zhongli?
Depends on what you mean by best
If you just want raw shield power, Thoma or c4 yanfei have the next most durable shields (or more durable in the case of yanfei, hers is just harder to get)
If you want a unit who can shield but does other things, diona is probably the go-to
In general diona would be better than zhongli
Yes
great since my diona is c2
Why don't people use traveler?
there are better options but i have seen a few traveller mains
The traveler is the budget version of the archons
I'm looking for good traveler builds
what element?
Anemo and geo
My geo traveller use 2 gladi 2 petra in the past, not sure with current set if it's changed
Cdm/cr, atk, geo
As for anemo 4 vv or 2 gladi 2 vv
f2p but what weapon
KEKwow
what’s the weapon?
It's jade cutter
phys or electro
wish u get her!! go get her go go go
trading like 30 crit damage for 10 more crit rate would probably result in an increase of dps
and your set bonuses might be a bit whacky
but overall, pretty good build
cdm
Rate my Sara build? Sub dps build in a 3 electro waifu team, Yae, Sara and Raiden. 🙂
super good except that the ER is a tad lower than i prefer, personally
and maybe level that e up a few more times
im running this
atk goblet but ive got damage bonus buffs from raiden and kazuha so it works out
Naur
I MEAN THATS GOOD
do you have sucrose
Who are you farming for
yanfei
Try to get crimson witch for her
Support Noelle is not currently recommended in any content due to her extremely lackluster healing and poor shield uptime.
**Regarding Weapon Choices:
Sacrificial Greatsword: **Does not proc on Noelle's [C4] if she's off field, so a high refine is needed for the initial cast to reliably reset cooldown. Even with [R5], the cooldown is 16 seconds while Noelle's shield duration is 12, so forced downtime is an issue.
**Favonius Greatsword: **Relies on hitting crits to generate energy. The 12 second cooldown at [R1] matches with her shield cooldown. Generally not recommended unless you have an abundance of crit substats or wish to build her pseudo-DPS.
Sands: DEF%
Goblet: DEF%
Circlet: DEF%
1. DEF%
2. Flat DEF
3. Energy Recharge
1. Skill
2. Burst
3. Normal Attack
1. Whiteblind (4★)
2. Sacrificial Greatsword [R5] (4★)
3. Favonius Greatsword (4★)
1. Husk of Opulent Dreams (4)
2. Husk of Opulent Dreams (2) Maiden Beloved (2)
Use her charged attacks for healing as they are much faster than normal attacks.
What website
An artifact optimizer for the open-world role playing game, Genshin Impact.
If you want to deal the max possible damage you can in Genshin Impact then you HAVE to try out The Genshin Optimizer Tool. I've been messing with it the past week and it has changed so much about how I build my best teams and highest damage units in Genshin Impact.
In this tutorial we'll be covering all the steps and nuances on how you use Gens...
Thankss
who should i build today?
maybe ganyu.
any tips? this is the third time I'm rebuilding her since 1st banner
I recommend shooting the arrows.
how much em Hu Tao needs?
Around 200EM
what main stat should I use on sands for yae? atk / em / er?
You dont really need barbara imo unless ur trying to electro charge or vape
In which case I'd stack EM
stackem
healer?
what's the worst team comp that you've actually seen someone seriously use?
co-op, all hydro, against oceanid
for me it would probably be my brother's, whose default is Ayaka + Hu Tao + Kazuha + Keqing
does anyone know the best artifacts for yae? if get her id like to build her
geo trav and shenhe
;-;
Outside of Keqing, that is actually not terrible tbh. Swap Keqing for Xingqiu and, with proper investment, it shreads through content (though tbh I'd also swap Kazuha for something like Diona maybe, as you can't swirl pyro easily anyways).
As for the worst team comp I've seen, not sure tbh but probably some combination of 4 greedy (on-field that you can't really swap out on their dps windows) dpses, so any combination of Hu Tao, Razor, Childe, Xiao, Yoimiya, maybe even Itto.
pyro is super easy to swirl, as long as there's grass. XD
There's no grass in abyss :P
yes, but once dendro comes out...
Now that could be interesting, not needing to run a second pyro with Hu Tao to swirl it, but I guess we have to wait
This or maybe a combination of supports that can't do damage or don't go together at all, so imagine a Barbara, Diona, Gorou and Qiqi or something (yeah, you can build either as dps with different degrees of success, but this is assuming they're built as support).
I’m wondering what dendro’s play style will be like when it’s released
What characters should be used with Ayaka, other than Diona for particles?
Hydro support and anemo with 4p VV, basically
I farmed 2pc Thundering and 2pc Gladiators for her and based on what I can guess, I think it'll be good
Her best hydro support is Mona (but this requires at least enough investment to kill stuff with her ult, as Mona's off-field hydro application is not that good), followed by Xingqiu (who requires auto attacking more, which isn't Ayaka's focus) and Kokomi (which also fills the healer role, so you can bring something like Kaeya or Rosaria instead of Diona; even Ganyu or Shenhe if you can get Ayaka's burst on cooldown).
guys for content creator, which content creator do you recommend? seka, zyox, xlice?
please dont even touch seka with a 10 foot pole
he is harmful
zy0x and xlice are pretty good though
tenten too if you want a more muted evaluation, hes one of the few who will actually say to not summon on a character
which is important to have in the CC landscape
i've been following him from early lol
then you should know
why?
he says the worst things
seems like a nice guy
okay
like kokomi dps > childe dps
calculating raiden burst with vap and melt damage
running aloy main dps instead of sub/bursts
making a whole video on potential yae teams without mentioning raiden once
he literally mentioned that yae could be a battery for xiao before he mentioned that she'll work with raiden
what is that
who does that
British seka
i watch him for his banner predictions but even those are kinda vague
but if you want meta advice i really would not look at him at all
also because he just straight up makes guesses for shit and passes it off as "TC"
feelcrafting is looked down upon for a reason
Nonetheless, his videos are quite entertaining
yeah, entertainment value can be found in many places
i hold a relatively similar opinion of iwtl
his tests, even when he tries to make them representative, are very far from it
to his credit, i'd say he has been noticeably improving
thx for the very well explanation
yeah maybe that's what makes me like to watch him
why is this considered a bad thing ?
the aloy bit
do you have any opinion on game8 guide?
because she is a diona level main dps
every theory crafter out there pretty quickly realized that the only place where she has relative value is as a cryo battery or a nuke/sub dps
yet seka was not only blind to this, but insistent to the contrary
who gaf lmao
"he's bad, he has aloy main dps instead of following what everyone else says?!"
the rest make sense but this is just confusing to me
people run main dps that go against the norm all the time so I genuinely don't understand why that was included
he is a theory crafter who seemingly takes himself seriously, so to give such warped guides and recommendations is extremely bad
no theory crafter should ever recommend amber or diona main dps
people can run it, sure
but leave that for tectone or moga or tenha, people who arent focused on making guide content
he is in a different position from them
id stray away from online website guides, every one ive seen has ranged from ok to extremely incorrect
given all that it makes sense to a degree, I'm not sure of what he says, I don't watch him at all
but if he's just main aloy for the fun of it then 
na he hasnt played aloy since she released except maybe for something with shenhe, that was him picking up the character and making recommendations on how people should "effectively use her"
i somewhat agree, he once said that childe is bad
then i fullstar my abyss because of him lol
he genuinely thinks kokomi does more dps than childe
"kokomi NA = childe NA and kokomi clam = childe burst"
it takes a certain level of completely ignoring how a unit works to even consider such a proposition
they both can't crit they are equal

For kokomi, at least you know you can't crit
i dunno what everyone is talking about childe cant crit, i crit all the time
it's a meme lol
honestly.. mine never crits, but I can't remember if his rate is low or not
you know he crits when riptide/slash applied
mine always crits on regular skill but has NEVER critted on a burst 😀
with 75 cr 😀
mine is 60 crits most of the time
How good is my lvl70/80 yunjin? I gave her my old albedo pieces and 2pc husk I had lying around
Guys, Widsith/Solar Pearl/Oathsworn eye for Miko?
widsith is cracked
id be surprised if that was not her best
but i havent seen the calcs yet
my only gripe is its passive uptime
yeah but even during downtime its still good because crit damage
????
dimwit
diona came home after 30pity
now my 33fates become 2fates
need build for her
i use favonius warbow on her (since i dont have sacrificial bow)
2pc Tenacity 2pc Maiden
HP%, HP%, HP%
Sacrificial for shield+Battery
Favonius for Team battery
Recurve for strong shield
2pc ToM 2pc Maiden is probs the best set
is it okay to use 2no 2gf?
Does anyone know how triple em on jean compare to crit build?
congratss!
хахахахахах
should a bennett have good crit rate/dmg ratio? or as long as the ER is good?
my ER before is 178% but had to change artif so it'll reach atleast 200%
well the crit ratio is definitely not good
but the er is good and thats what matters most for bennett
and when you crit itll be juicy ig
thanks!
guess I gotta farm more, wannagive bennett a good ratio
that’s such a perfect support bennett 🗿
idk how i managed to balance these, tbh
thats a pretty funny stat lineup tbh
40k hp with good crit stats, if not a slightly warped ratio
but then 1k attack
opinions on my raiden build that im going to have when i get her?
she also has fav polearm atm but i need a new one
well if you get raiden
i have guaranteed
i think shes a higher priority user for the catch than xiangling
so i'd go for that
and if youre using an er timepiece and the catch
i am using an er timepiece
it will be very difficult for an electro goblet to beat an atk goblet
so you might want to hunt for some atk goblets
yeah im trying to get a better flower and goblet
i have a perfect goblet that would work for raiden but the problem is that its an offpiece
and its currently for eula
i dont think a physical goblet would have to be good to be worth it for eula
i mean my eula does need an upgrade to her build
im using xiangling rn for her to occupy the artifacts and the build
Ayato Bennett Zhongli and (Xiangling for reverse vape n pyro resonance or Yun Jin for normal attacks buff n geo resonance?)
wdym, we dont know anything about ayato 🕵️
||i really dont see ayato being a single-carry unit, because of how his burst buff works and what his build would likely be, his downtime would be absolutely massive for a relatively quick dps window compared to every other dps unit, screaming that he is a sub dps to be paired with another unit to reduce his e cd||
||it depends on the mechanics of how his CDR works and how his scalings turn out, split scaling between atk% and hp% makes it really hard to judge him without direct testing or math which has not been done yet||
also definitely no zhongli if his description is to be trusted
i have a very hard time imagining that he's better than childe for that
@fleet loom raiden without c2 is only good as offield dps or support
But go for booba sword
Not really
Especially tenha
His account reviews are like "you should 90 your characters, you should crown your talents"
Both of which are immediately kinda wrong
Can u guys recommend build for Yae Miko and her Team?
Not fully sure about builds or teams outside of Raiden, but I did want to talk to falthis about smth
it's not even been 24 fucking hours
if you want good-quality advice, you gotta wait at least a week
So I think that generally, EM is currently being underrated for her
And if it's possible to stack a good amount of EM while losing minimal E damage, the damage gained from reactions is going to be pretty significant
but the most likely to get good results, because of her Q being jacked, might just be 4ESF.
Not really no
Her Q is 22 Second Cooldown
All her q showcases have genuinely been a bit underwhelming imo, esp for a 22s cooldown which means you can't even use it every rotation
Like the highest I saw was 700k total damage or something like that
Obviously it's good but that's not what a nuke character could do, so that's a bonus rather than a focus
her Q also has like a 1.7k%+ scaling at level 6
and with kagura's verity, you cover the E damage
or just use widsith
and, AS I SAID, the high quality of suggestions you are currently expecting will take at minimum a week of theorycrafting
but yeah, level 10 Q has a 2271% Scaling
Yeah, and it's still only like 30ish % of her damage
So better uptime, better burst, better dps, and better reactions
No snapshotting aka less strict rotations
Got a question i am currently maining ningguang would it be better for me to wait and get kazuha or get a 5 star dps/yae miko. Have a 5 star weapon that increase attack % and ning at c3
Well kazuha doesn't help Ning at all
But you need 2 teams for abyss
Yae doesn't really fit in any typical Ning teams either
is prototype good for fischl as sub dps??
i mean, she can still be a sub dps
plus im not particularly making her a main dps
more of a sub dps/battery & support
how do freeze teams deal damage?
What do you mean?
I mean, other than well... dealing damage by attacking, using skills and bursts
freeze by itself doesn't deal damage
so do they just freeze and then do generic attacks
Yeah, most cryo units meant to be the main source of damage have really high raw damage
Plus on freeze teams you also kinda depend on VV shred
Also, enemies being frozen means they can't move so you don't need to spend time dodging
could barbara work with Ayaka for freeze support?
if say mona and xingqiu aren't available
If you have nothing better, yeah. Best support is Mona, followed by Xingqiu (though XQ means focusing more on her attacking on field, which isn't her forte)
Kokomi is around the same level of usefulness as XQ I'd say, as she has the second best off-field hydro application
But yeah, Barbara can suffice
also as another support for Ayaka would Diona or Shenhe be better?
If you're running Barbara, I'd say Shenhe. Though make sure you can ult off-cooldown with Ayaka without Diona.
so put energy recharge on Ayaka
Or use Amenoma
You still want to prioritise offensive stats on Ayaka, but she loses a lot of dps (as in damage per second) if she can't ult off-cooldown
my brother has ayaka and shenhe so i was wondering what would be best for his team
and he is using anemona for ayaka so yeah
- 4 blizzard
does shenhe have good or bad particle generation?
Yeah, 4p BS is the way to go with Ayaka
And I'm not sure about that, sorry. I don't have Shenhe.
would you consider sucrose or kazuha to be a better vv/em support?
also for physical keqing, which characters to group with?
Sucrose vs Kazuha depends on the team
Kazuha is better for freeze (though Venti is generally a bit better than him, due to the better grouping). Sucrose doesn't have much use in freeze, other than holding VV.
For teams that rely heavily in reactions, Sucrose tends to be better (though if Kazuha is C2, then they're pretty much equal)
On electro-charged though, Sucrose is basically always better, but that's also because she is usually the driver of those teams
On teams like Xiangling national (with either XQ or Childe), Hu Tao with a second pyro unit to swirl pyro and Diluc, for example, afaik Kazuha tends to perform a bit better, but they're pretty equal. As far as I know, I might be wrong. C2 Kazuha though I'd say is almost always better.
and for physical keqing, i mean cryo especially for triggering superconduct
For physical Keqing, you need a cryo unit. Could be Diona, Rosaria, Kaeya. Outside of that, imo is pretty flexible as you long as you don't mess with the reaction (superconduct). An anemo unit though is kinda wasted, as you can't shred physical res with that. Zhongli can be a good flex spot though, as his shield does shred physical res.
would you say that noelle is an inferior version of zhongli
No
Noelle can be used as support, but is better as dps (though kinda requires C6)
Plus Zhongli has the universal shred with the shield, she doesn't
i thought noelle shield and zhongli shield were both geo?
and geo = equal resistance to all?
No, the shred I'm talking about is a shred on the enemy
This means, the resistance of the enemies near Zhongli's shield is reduced by 20% (all elemental and physical res)
ah
Any shield of any element will resist damage of any type
Though most elemental shields, like say Diona's for example, do have better resistance to its element (Diona's shield absorbs cryo damage 250% better iirc)
is xiao really that f2p-unfriendly?
Yes.
Hmmm I wouldn't say he's unplayable if you're f2p, it's just that his best team, afaik, is all 5*s (Jean/Albedo/Zhongli) and his f2p weapons are mediocre. He can be played effectively with other teams ofc, and blackcliff isn't that bad, but he's not f2p-friendly.
I'd say, for example, Itto is even less f2p friendly, though not by much.
Don’t invest for Xiao unless you can afford Pjs, Deathmatch, or blackcliff pole in the stardust shop
Plus, Xiao has a new set tailored for him coming, so it'll be better
also along the way, i got jade spear unintentionally. Who could I put it on that isn't a 5-star?
Any polearm tbh
Its pretty good
Depends
But only for a dps build
like i said a few days ago right now i'm using it on my xiangling because my fishing luck hasn't been great so my catch is only r2
It's a good weapon, but for characters like Xiangling, The Catch is still better afaik
Not sure for Raiden though
Staff of homa sword version when
Or any
Homa is like the universal good polearm
so should i use my catch over jade for xiangling even though my catch is still only r2?
Probably never, as Homa was tailored for Hu Tao lmao
It's good, but it's not that universal
💞Use whatever your heart feels is right💞
Most of the characters can't make use of the HP passive to begin with, but it's CDMG is good, so it's a crit stick
I'd do tests in-game
Though if you have trouble getting her ult back, I'd go with The Catch
who is the best healer in the game right now?
from my knowledge it is barbara and diona
Kokomi♥️
Jean is also pretty good, and Qiqi is now a bit better with the clam set
next character we know is getting a rerun?
We don't know, it's not confirmed
But it's rumoured to be any combination of Venti, Klee, Ayaka and Yoimiya. Could be 2 or 3 of them.
If you mean this patch, Raiden and Kokomi come after Yae.
should i prioritize building sara over fixing my bennet?
Depends on what you need to fix. Both only need base attack for their buffs, not sure about Sara but at least the only other requirement Bennett has is ER.
But what is he missing? Tbh for him to be functional, you only need ER
Eh, he could use more ER indeed but base attack can't be fixed with artefacts so
Unless you plan on levelling a weapon with higher base attack, you can only increase his ER
I'd honestly change his weapon
Iirc, favonius has a rather low base attack
What AR are you?
56 💀
Oh alksdjlasd
Well, I'd give him a higher base attack weapon and make sure he stays at least over 200% ER
If you do refarm, yeah, though I recommend getting them through the strongbox instead
no cause i have like a bunhc of decent artiss
but no fodder to level most of them up
But tbh my rather unbuilt Bennett has 756 base attack with rancour and 200% ER, and his ER sands is lvl 12
my only rancors on jean
Curious as to why you have NO on Ayaka alskdja but yeah, if it has enough ER, you probably should
I'd put it on Bennett instead, unless you're running a main physical dps Jean xD
Then rancour being on Jean isn't a problem I guess
You can just switch it to Bennett
i just lost so much er
Yeah, you'd need to adjust artefacts ofc
im at 188.6
But idk alskdja if what you have already works for you, don't change it
Good luck then!
thx!
Is Jade Cutter good for Ayaka?
it’s definitely usable, i have her on jade cutter and she does fine
i finally got em sands but it forces my hu tao to have 26k hp is that okay?
i went from 4k atk to 3k
yap it is ok as long as her performance increases no need to worry
okay, how good is Kagura's Verity for people that are not Yae? I can see it being useful on Sucrose but I'm not sure if any other catalyst characters can really obtain 3 stacks regularly.
about every unit can benefit from it not in such an extended as Ye but it is probably a great catalist on many unit Ning and Klee can use with great success and the others that cant proc the effect as consistently just get a huge stat stick
I mean as a stat stick it's pretty obviously going to be useful for any damaging catalyst, but to get the most out of it yes. I don't think Ningguang would get as much out of it simply because her gate doesn't actually deal much damage making the stacks themselves less valuable.
Ning apparently with the right timing can get 3 stacks
@bleak river has leveled up to LEVEL 18 
With burst resetting e
Klee yes, Sucrose yes, I'm not doubting that she can get the stacks, just that she's losing out on the benefit the stacks provide by themselves.
her gate does alot of dmg i don't know what your on about 😄
I also don't use her so maybe she's just written badly as to indicate what the skill actually does. 😛
well it does alot of dmg and in the case os sucrose sure if she is a main dps it is possible but there are so many options better then vanity on her that i personally don't see a reason to o for that wep over the 4star options
Mona could also likely take advantage of it.
I'm not saying I'd put it on her, just that she could use it.
and actually trigger the 3 stack bonus
Um it didnt rven get better
went from 1 to 2
now she does less im confused
I guess Lisa could also use it
Really the only one who could not reasonably get 3 stacks is Barbara. That's promising.
Hu Tao's skill and burst damage are both influenced by her max HP.
Ya but i did more em bc ppl said more em is damage increase more than hp but now she does less i feel betrayed
em requires reactions to be of value
go beat up on a hydro slime and see how it feels. Lol
does she not vap every hit with xq ult?
no idea, I don't have her, and I don't use XQ to vape. 😛
doesnt seem like it for me
Rly?
It's usable, but not recommended unless for some reason you're not running 4p BS.
||PJC might be useful for ayayo if the leaks are true tho||
||Like... y'know HP scaling and all||
Ye
according to leaks, it's really minimal
Who's the best electro dps unit available?
Fischl hands down
should i go for more or should i settle
Only dps elements that are miss are electro, cryo and hydro
I'm thinking about pulling Raiden, Ayaka and Ayato
le funny almost 50k
you'd probably be better off with a hydro goblet and hb circlet if you can manage
i guess i can farm a bit more
this is, ofc, only if you like using her actual burst
if you only use her e and leave her off field
then triple hp is basically good
up until recently i had skyward because she did a bit more dmg and i didnt mind bc her healing is fine at 41k hp
but if you use her normal attacks n stuff, then her damage scales better with healing bonus than with hp
and ofc damage bonus is better than excess hp aswell
i guess i can have a seperate build for domains
clam sets keep rolling into crit and i dont plan on building critkomi
yunjin doesnt care about burst damage bonus
so 4 noblesse or some combination of 2husk, 2def, 2sf is what she would use
or even instructor maybe? dunno about that one
isn’t instructor em bonus or something
yeah, its for the other units
I use 2 husk 2 emblem for the regeneration
yunjin does practically 0 damage
i have 2pc noblesse because those are the only def main stats i have rn
ok are you testing them in the same condition what your testing is vap charge attack (always vaps with xq) on 100 and under 50% if it doesn't do more dmg with no additional buffs just swap back to hp the em increase is not very big to begin with and the difference in dmg almost unnoticeable in my openion so if she does less dmg for you stick back to what you had
also do it on the same mob or boss to reduce level and stat differences
dude whatever works for you if you have that and thats the best stat base you can give her thats what you go with the thing she cares about is the def and the second set is a compliment in ur case its like you have just one 2pc set but as long as she boost its fine
almost 8k...
my level 1 qiqi heals for 2.7
are you running a healing set ?
triple hp
same but i run a mililith and i think she heals around 5-6 k
this is with double hydro and her talent is crowned
LMAO it’s alright
i already accidentally got rid of it but i did in same condiotions and it was still less, ill just keep it tho
is it a good build rn
i would personally trade some of the cd for cr but at this pont of the build i guess its a hard thing to do i can show you mine but mine on the other half leans to the othe extreme too much cr 😄
i dont know what u mean by at this poiint of the build but ya show me urs
what i mean is you artifacts are very good and upgrading them will take you alot of time for very small improvements
Guys can u guys tell me what sets should i give yaemiko??
for me 2 glad 2 shim is good enough
Hmm
HOW DO U HAVE SO MUCH EM AND HP
Can i give yaemiko 4pc shime or 4pc emblem??
you cna give her 4 emblem but not 4 shim
i would stick to 2pc 2pc though
Hmm ok
like 2 fury 2wand 2 nobles is fine
depends on what part of her kit you want to boost as there is no strict 4pc best set its mix and match
@upper sable has leveled up to LEVEL 1 
@upper sable how about this i give her 2pc glad and 2pc shime
HOW DO U DO THAT
yes
there is a website on the picture
Probably this guy is a whale or have a godlike lucky guy
102% cr is abit too much but looks amazing
I got too many godlike artifacts
What a flex
Weapon is ofc the kagura
i would not say its godly 😄 i would say if you go in the golden house build showcase im average at best 😄
Shinshin.moe
shinshin .moe
This should be consider a flex,this is my zhongli flower
uu

i raise you this 

like how to get good stats on the one item you don't need them on
Hmm wdyt??
respect i have a pal that mains keqing since release he would love that one 😄
I main geo mc tho
if you enjoy the unit
it looks great to me i have the mindset to not over-invest in any one unit as new sets tend to come out that invalidate old ones
I am not farming a new set ever even if she gets some super op one
ah well i might farm the husk for albedo eventually 
I farmed like 2 fragile resin and got what i need for him, but ill never level him past 70
its a good domain
it usually depends on what are the two sets since oyu know CW only has one good set in it your kinda waisiting to much resin for too litle of a benefit
The anemo traveler i gave him 4pc vv with 176/65 crits and 2.3k atk base
Geo traveler i give him glad and archaic with 197/72 crits and 2.7k atk base
Electro traveler i give 4pc emblem with 152/54 crits with 2.1k
What do u think
amazing
traveler can use 4pc emblem?
Electro yes he can
does quickswap emblem keqing exist
her ult doesn't exactly need alot of energy so no 😄
Nah dosent need that much
@modern raven has leveled up to LEVEL 1 
if you cant get over the 35% dmg increase of 2pc elemental set 2pc nobles without over-investing in er there is no point to run emblem
wha
2pc nobless gives you flat 20% dmg increase fury 15%% electro dmg thats 35% dmg
black sword ?
On what element do u think i used black sword to
i see
oh i did not consider any 5star weps though 
anyways i will be dipping since we turned this to chat it is build discussion after all
The electro traveler i give him low crits cuz i just make him a battery for my other characters
Ok
any yae comps guys
for xiangling as sub support, 4pc noblesse or 4pc emblem?
not even a question: 4ESF
I've been having a lot of fun with this team, infinite overload reactions
i wish i have venti and sayu
can probably work with sucrose or kazuha as well
sayu is goated for overworld teams
though if someone is asking about a team comp im not sure overworld is exactly what theyre looking for
pog
0EM though
dont sleep on em, true
its not only good for her skill damage, but reactions can be quick significant with some em stacking
My venti gives 100EM from Elegy passive and I've considered swapping Sayu for my C6 Diona for extra 200EM, but might mess with the Overload reactions
I think C0 Yae is just a worse Beidou that's a lot more stationary and single traget, but she's still fun
C6 Yae can do some pretty nasty dmg, but not worth it except if you really love the character and are gonna keep playing her forever
That, and also if you're a human trafficker
hard to imagine that c6 yae is worth when c2 raiden exists and is probably still better

You could get C2 Raiden, C2 Kazuha and a C0 Ganyu instead of C6 Yae
Much more worth
Fill that up with some of the broken OG4 Stars and you'll be 36 starring Abyss permanently
for a goblet, there are very very few cases where you want something other than elemental/physical damage bonus
i thought you were talking about the main stat
only circlets can have a crit main stat
Lol, I reworked my Thoma cause he's now C6 and these are his new stats with triple hp% main stat artifacts 
4 NO and R5 favonius Lance 
less than 30k hp with triple hp%?
:S
well, fav lance
but still
why would they make him an hp scaling unit with low base hp like that
Because people were okay with diona?
Cryo dmg bonus Ascension stat🤣 
is this possible ??
Yes
7.766*6 is 46.6% crit damage
So that is the most you can get on one artifact
And 39 < 46
i am in need of a pyro dps and dont know whether i should build yanfei (i have skyward atlas for her) or diluc as the main one
i would think too but idk if the 5* wep on yanfei would change anything
hu tao
yeah long term saving up for her c1
just wait til halloween she will prob appear somewhere around that date
ohok
it was a joke btw lol
it appears there are not many qiqi users lol
If I am not wrong, you can go 2 ways with her
One is an easy and fast build
Stack atk, and healing bonus
ignore the sub stats
Or you can have hybrid
Build her well and maybe use atk gob and Hb cirlet
Or build her as you would build a dps
I'd recommend ATK goblet because of better heals, and since her cryo application isn't very nice
ER substats would be nice, because her particle generation isn't so good. I think C1 helps with ER too
And the Ocean Hued Clam set
Because heals, and additional damage every now and then
xiangling is debatably the best pyro dps in the game
use that information as you will
4p clam set, use her on field as a driver for other units like beidou and xingqiu in a taser comp perhaps
she'll deal good physical damage with the clam procs, might be interesting
or you can just use her like a passive healer, in which case there is nothing special to do, you just click e and q sometimes
❗️
NICEE
she is currently occupied in ganyu team
das aight
just letting you know 
He's still level 78 so at 90 I think he might hit 30k, but yeah his base hp is like a bow/catalyst user🙈
For Yae, which one is best weapon?
- Skyward Atlas
- Lost Prayer
- Widsith
- New B4 event
probably widsith im ngl
My builds>>>>>
2pc Noblesse 2 thundering ok for yae?
If your artifacts for it are very good then sure
But I wouldn't recommend that before many other sets
Like glad, sr
I have three pyro characters that I use, which are Diluc, Xiangling and Bennett. They are all 70/70. Who should I prioritize ascending next?
Most likely Xiangling, as she's at a better position rn than Diluc. Then Bennet. But tbh you should think about if you'd benefit more from the ascension (like, are you gonna level up talents?) or from levelling weapons/getting better artefacts (assuming you're at least AR45).
yae rec? anyone
Widsith weapon, 2 piece glad 2 piece thundering
Level up burst and skill to 6
Na only if ur going dps yae
2pc glad and shim also works
i have vierity and im running 2p tf and 2p glad
would it be worth it to swap to widsity
Kaguras has higher average dmg whereas widsith has higher peak dmg but lower baseline dmg
iirc
im trying to build her where i dont have to rng literally everything
so imma stick with kaguras
also my widsith is lvl 40
and im out of stuff to level
Since you got kaguras you might as well use it
It's been less than a week since her release
What did you expect
I mean there are a few out on yt
I saw someone play Yae as Nuke, 1 Million
Definitely noblesse
I've seen whales use Thundershooter 4pc
Ik the domain is annoying
its been getting me around 27k totem procs
But yae needs ER too, so EofSf can be an option
Nice
ive been debating
cause fishcl as a battery has been treating me nice
on seeing how often i can go without having to stop rotations
or just going full emblem]
Yeah
and stacking er to the roof
I run yae with Raiden so I don't need to much ER but I still have a little on the substats
Nice 👍
I lost my 50 50 on yae and got Mona at first :')
I had great misfortune at the fortune slip stand so ouch
But in the end I got her
Shenhe?
elua originally then didnt get her so i defulted to shenhe
ccause she got my rosaria procs up to almost double
which was nice
Hmm ok
cause i really wanted yai
yae
and at the time i wasnt planning on spending mone
so it was save save save
yknow?
I'm hitting 4-5Ks, help me
ping me when u send
I am still waiting for Paimon.moe's build, but if I can contribute to it this way or give advice while waiting for it here are my Yae Miko build recommendations, from what I have seen and tested so far. Note that rankings might not be very accurate but the options mentioned are good overall.
Artifacts:
1 -2 pc thundering fury + 2pc atk for decent dps
2 -4pc thundershooter if really good artifacts
3 -EofSF 4pc if lots of ER
4 -2 pc EofSF + 2pc ATK for decent dps/ER balance
5 -2pc glad + 2pc shimenawa is a good option if you don't have any other artifacts
Stats: ER/ATK/CRIT or ATK/ELECTRO DMG/CRIT.
Substats: CRIT - ER - ATK - EM. Notes: you want at least 150-160 ER or more if you are not running Yae with Raiden or another electro. Having some EM on her might be good as she has a passive that scales of her EM
As for weapons:
1- Kagura's verity
2- R5 widsith (the passive substats will always benefit her, /!\ note that the passive is only active 1/3 of the time)
3- Skyward Atlas
4- Lost prayers to the sacred winds
5- Oathsworn eye (might be a very good option for f2p as it will solve her energy problems)
6- Solar pearl
7- Other ATK/ER weapons (Frostbearer, Hakushin ring, eye of perception, ECT...)
A weathered script, the text of which is no longer legible. A cursed item eroded by the winds of time.

ookokoko thank you!!!!
and, while I don't generally recomment pulling shenhe, shenhe xingqiu chongyun rosaria is a decent team I guess. or diona over chongyun/xingqiu if you wanna use xq in another team
What's the verdict on Bae miko?
She's dps, support, what is she?
sub dps
@autumn geyser
4535 no buff
5742 atk buff
5928 ele dmg buff
5580 em buff
^from widsith, no external buffs
Get lucky
I don't know what I did to rngesus, it's just been 1 shitty artifact after another
@rigid crater has leveled up to LEVEL 1 
I guess I'm just gonna have to wait for Raiden
Honestly, it do be that simple💁♂️
Tbh same, though i do get the occasional good artifact
mainly burst > sub > if you really want it main
i wouldnt go into em for miko
but thats just how i like to play her
and it honestly seems like you have too much cr
cause anything between 50-100
is just a 50/50
I'd also rather have a CD circlet with 4 CR rolls there
70+% crit rate is minimum for Cr scaling units to be honest
If you have 200 CD, missing that crit half the time legit cuts your damage by over 30%
how much em Sayu needs?
depends of c6 or not
C4
then em is not important
Those who got Yae, are you using an ATK sands or EM 🤔?
The more the merrier! EM really shines at C6, I’d say before C6 you could run ATK/ATK/EM, then for C6 ATK/EM/EM
just not worth it from prelim. calcs
What’s not worth it
is yae miko good with eula?
I'd rather grab raiden
ive heard that raiden eula when both c0 isnt actually a good combo
or rather, isnt as good as other combos
That's the thing, I don't have one
suppose i got a sacrificial sword(R1). should I swap it with my Xingqiu's R4 Favonius?
Imo ye xq bis is sac sword
