📌gimshim-help

[rugged sparrow]

but yeah

apparently I had my explo shenanigans

[half anchor]

shrine 14% wtf

🤣 thank god i asked here

[rugged sparrow]

iirc when I opened the tribal space I got my 100%

[half anchor]

idk if i've ever gotten a fragment early
pretty much every time it was on the very last chest (at least according to interactive map)

[rugged sparrow]

it's a good thing that Natlan precious/luxu is not too hidden

[half anchor]

yea

[rugged sparrow]

if I'm forced to use interactive it's literally

god what a mistake of a map, digging up my chat history

[half anchor]

i have every region 100% other than sumeru which im dodging (and natlan obvs which im working on)

im actually afraid of sumeru i dont have a single subregion there above 50

[rugged sparrow]

Sumeru is honestly fine minus desert

though I'd suspect desert is a lot more tolerable after they updated the mini map

back then mini map doesn't show different maps for different elevations

[half anchor]

did it used to not have the layer maps 💀

omg

[rugged sparrow]

yeah it didn't

you were basically exploring with your map disabled when you enter the desert ruins

[viral mulch]

voice crack enrique

[quaint fern]

https://tenor.com/view/those-who-know-cat-cat-meme-those-who-gif-2719346752565069035

[viral mulch]

i still cant navigate sumeru to this day

[rough island]

hello

could anybody pleaee let me know what this even is that allows you to get a con for a character?

[rough island]

oh hey youve helped em out a ton

wonder if you could

[rugged sparrow]

whar

[rugged sparrow]

just do dailies 5 days out of 7 days in a week
for 8 weeks
each event lasts for 12 weeks so you can only miss 4 weeks

[rough island]

if i start now can i make it? only started playing again like 2 days ago

[rugged sparrow]

how many days left does it say

[rough island]

56 dats

days

[rugged sparrow]

should be enough as long as u dont miss a single day starting next week

[rough island]

u just do comissions?

[rugged sparrow]

basically

resin + commission
if you use Encounter Point you're also basically considered finishing daily

[rough island]

so can i think of it as, if i can claim my "complete 4 comissions" on the battle pass thing its complete?

[rugged sparrow]

or well claim dailies on Kath

[rough island]

ou makes sense, also whats a miliastra wonderland

it keeps asking me to start it but idk, im catching up on archon quests

[rugged sparrow]

Genshin Roblox
u can ignore it if ure not into it

ure not missing anything unless you're into Roblox + custom outfits
and ig some standard pulls

[rough island]

is sumeru a pain for everybody or just me

[rugged sparrow]

it's generally regarded as the worst region for explo
I liked it though, minus the desert area

[rough island]

im surprised they didnt change the standard characters yet

[haughty lava]

Does anyone know a really good farming method 😭

[rugged sparrow]

like 5-stars?

[rugged sparrow]

farming what

[haughty lava]

primogems

[rugged sparrow]

explo/endgame content

[haughty lava]

Sorry forgot to specify 😭✌🏻

🫩

[rugged sparrow]

quests and events if u haven't done them too

[rough island]

yeah

[haughty lava]

what specifically is endgame content

[rugged sparrow]

eh depending on when you last played, there's been Tighnari, Dehya, and Mizuki

[half anchor]

based on this question im gonna assume you haven't 100% explored areas so do that

[rugged sparrow]

Stygian Onslaught / Spiral Abyss / Imaginarium Theatre

explo is arguably the fastest primo:time you can get into, assuming you haven't done explo

[half anchor]

u do need to have good damage asw prob
to just make everything faster/speedrun

[rough island]

i havent even unlocked 2 regions, does this mean im gonna be rich soon (not fully unlocked fontaine either)

[haughty lava]

are weapons really worth it (like weapon banners)

[rough island]

oh yeah I have a lvl 1 tighnari

[rugged sparrow]

ye explo gives a decent sum of primos

[half anchor]

where are you in archon quests

[rough island]

uhh someone related to navia died

[rugged sparrow]

at a certain point, signatures/weap banners are the only best source of dmg increase you can get so it depends

[rough island]

her 2 bodyguards or whatever

[rugged sparrow]

"her 2 bodyguards or whatever"

[half anchor]

😭

[rugged sparrow]

Silver and Melus didn't die to get thrown under the bus like that

[rough island]

idk the importance of them because i dont even remember who a navia is 😭

im playing after like 2 yrs 😭

[rugged sparrow]

granted their off-screen death is kinda ??

[rough island]

is the kave playable btw

[half anchor]

ye

[rough island]

knave

[haughty lava]

when did her friends die 😭I finished all the archon quest I’ve never seen that

[rough island]

did she recently have a banner or no? i want her

[rugged sparrow]

Knave is yes, Arlecchino

[half anchor]

general rule of thumb:
anyone with a non npc design is most likely playable

[rugged sparrow]

and yes she just re-ran on previous version

[half anchor]

she will not be back for a long while
however next banner we have columbina

[rugged sparrow]

Luna II (6.1) was last patch, it's currently Lunar III (6.2)

[rough island]

well not that one girl who got decapitated by the shogun

[rough island]

she is next banner yes?

[haughty lava]

signora

[half anchor]

ye

[rugged sparrow]

careful with that gif

[half anchor]

forgot lol

[rough island]

is she gonna be any good? or is there no info

is she also one of the 12 gangsters

[rugged sparrow]

no official info

[half anchor]

idrk

[rugged sparrow]

11 harbingers

[half anchor]

ye

[rugged sparrow]

12 gangsters 🥀

[haughty lava]

should i pull for columbina if I have furina?

[rough island]

I thought there was 12, since childe was the 12th no? am i mis remembering

[half anchor]

i mean columbina is prob gonna be different to furina

[rugged sparrow]

we dont know what bina does, but she'll likely have very different roles than Furi

[haughty lava]

her design is so cool, might pull ✌🏻

[rugged sparrow]

Childe is the 11th

[quaint fern]

yeah we'll probably see some bina stuff next friday

[rough island]

oh my bad

[half anchor]

we need pierro to appear man

[rough island]

also a lore question , if the nations hate the fatui so much why is the knave kind of chill

[rugged sparrow]

I'd kill a man in cold blood to make Pierro playable

[half anchor]

lmao

[rugged sparrow]

well it's a bit related to her backstory

you'll eventually get there unless u don't mind spoiler ig
but u can always go to #📚lore-dungeon

[rough island]

nou I dont mind minor spoilers, but if it spoils a lot id prefer you guys to not answer

[half anchor]

i mean the fatui in general are chill (other than like, dottore) at least imo

[haughty lava]

yeah the fatui aren’t necessarily evil

[rugged sparrow]

ehh nah, Childe and Pierro are also terribad

Childe literally almost sunk Liyue remember

[rough island]

but we been buddies with childe since he was revealed

[rugged sparrow]

and Pierro planned to poison the entirety of Watatsumi Island

[half anchor]

hes been neutralised into a child(e) now tho 🥀

[rugged sparrow]

yeah it's kinda weird but we take those

[haughty lava]

childe is washed

[rough island]

also why is furina so weak

[half anchor]

she is a buffer

[rugged sparrow]

weak lore-wise or

[haughty lava]

???? Furina is not weak

[rough island]

lore wise i mean

[quaint fern]

erm

[half anchor]

youll find out

[rough island]

oh

[rugged sparrow]

because ||she's not an archon|| (major spoilers)

[quaint fern]

spoilers--yeah

[haughty lava]

yeah

[rough island]

lovely, i shall find out

[quaint fern]

like fr dont click on that

[rugged sparrow]

[haughty lava]

furina is the best tho

[rugged sparrow]

who knows if they get itchy

[rough island]

i am very itchy

[rugged sparrow]

yeah just play it out

Fontaine storytelling is

[rough island]

ok since navias dudes just died, how far off am i from that

[half anchor]

fontaine > every archon quest so far
nod krai close tho

[rugged sparrow]

nooooot too far

[haughty lava]

Yeah Fontaine archon quest is easy and fast, you’ll get the answer in no time

[rugged sparrow]

Melus and Silver died on act 4? or 5 of Fontaine archon quest

it's basically like halfway to the end of Fontaine archon quest

[half anchor]

idk abt that, the prison arc was kinda long although i did enjoy it

[rough island]

navia is p smiley rn considering her closest friends or smthn just died

[rugged sparrow]

prison is way past that

[rough island]

what is after fontaine? fontaine or ice one

[rugged sparrow]

Natlan

[haughty lava]

Is everyone excited for schnezenaya

[quaint fern]

natlan

[rough island]

scheneznaya isnt out yet/

[rugged sparrow]

honestly if no Pierro I
more excited for Varka

it's already out since last year

we're already in Nod-Krai

[half anchor]

when dornman port coming

[haughty lava]

Varka is so chopped 😭😭😭😭

[rugged sparrow]

who knows, shit's been teased since forever

[half anchor]

execution

[rugged sparrow]

i hope you stub your toes

[quaint fern]

VARKA

[haughty lava]

🫩✌🏻why does he have such a pronounced nose

[half anchor]

https://tenor.com/view/genshin-impact-genshin-genshin-impact-varka-genshin-varka-gi-varka-gif-3556363492136841423

[quaint fern]

SURELY he's playable

[rough island]

I chose hu tao for my con character, i hope thats good considering i have no new characters

[rugged sparrow]

c1 Tao is fine

[rough island]

who is a varka?

[rugged sparrow]

grandmaster of Knights of Favonius

[half anchor]

no newer character cons are available anyway

[rugged sparrow]

(remember that Jean is only acting grandmaster)

[rough island]

ohhhh right, is his design revealed yet?

[haughty lava]

a really unimportant character

[rugged sparrow]

literally this

[half anchor]

its the gif i sent above

[rough island]

oh damn

he looks cryo

[rugged sparrow]

he's anemo

[half anchor]

what

[haughty lava]

i think he’s ameno

[rough island]

makes sense, he gives a cryo vibe

[haughty lava]

no he doesn’t 😭

[half anchor]

how

[rugged sparrow]

you can see the vision on the back of his hip

[rough island]

idk

[rugged sparrow]

or w/e, English body parts

[rough island]

also, is chongyun a good support for anybody yet

[rugged sparrow]

no

[rough island]

i love his design but he's kinda useless

[half anchor]

cryo zhongli

[haughty lava]

you should main dehya she’s a really good character in early game

[rough island]

oh yeah i remember that

[haughty lava]

she’s so close to being meta

[rugged sparrow]

he can be used for some occasions in cheesy context but ultimately kinda does nothing ye

[half anchor]

its true

[rough island]

im in early game? also isnt dehya ass, even back in my days she was considered ass

[haughty lava]

😭✌🏻

[rugged sparrow]

idk about how it is in early game but Dehya is just ok

[haughty lava]

I used to main dehya when i first started ts was so buns 😭✌🏻

[rugged sparrow]

she has some niches with her providing interruption resist but ultimately already have replacement in modern meta

[rough island]

is tighnari good?? why do i have this guy lvl 1

[half anchor]

i got one of my friends (after blood sweat and tears of convincing) to play genshin
and he picked dehya as the free 5 star purely based on looks
and his entire playthrough he kept complaining ab how weak his damage was
he got nefer recently tho (im pretty sure he would've quit if he lost the 5050)

[haughty lava]

Tighnaris kit actually makes sense so he’s good

[rugged sparrow]

he's good, though meta doesn't really favor him rn

[haughty lava]

I just lost my 50/50 to dehya 😍i really hate her with a passion

[rugged sparrow]

based tbh

just unlucky they picked Dehya
at least with c6 she won't feel too bad

[haughty lava]

dehya might be the worst character of all time

[rough island]

why do i have to go through 500 lines before the game locks in and gives me a good animated cutscene

[rugged sparrow]

unfortunately Mizuki exists

[half anchor]

bro HATES dehya

[haughty lava]

because Genshin is greedy and doesn’t want to give out free fates like that

[half anchor]

is she worse than qiqi

[rough island]

i was hoping that there would be a skip button in the game by now 😔

[haughty lava]

My friend just lost her 50/50 to mizuki

[rugged sparrow]

from objective standpoint probably not because at the worst she can TTDS + 4p VV

[half anchor]

technically mizuki can proc vv

[rough island]

what is a mizuki 😭

[haughty lava]

A character

[half anchor]

https://tenor.com/view/yumemizuki-mizuki-genshin-meme-genshin-genshin-impact-mizuki-gif-6608493160748206644

[haughty lava]

Her design is pretty cute

Wasted on a bad character

[rugged sparrow]

but Mizuki is imo the worst because

1. requires very specific team to function
2. is actively worse than any other alternatives with said team

[rough island]

diluc, keqing, qiqi were the characters u lost 50/50 to back in the day, are there more now?

[haughty lava]

Jean and dehya

[rugged sparrow]

yes, Tighnari, Dehya, and Mizuki

[rugged sparrow]

as I mentioned here

[haughty lava]

my first ever 50/50 i lost to Jean… AUGaaaaaaaa

[half anchor]

rn only mona and tighnari are not hot garbage from standard

[rough island]

ahh i thought u were saying standard characters

[rough island]

mine was diluc on the first ayaka banner

[rugged sparrow]

those 3 are the new 5-star standard chars yes

[haughty lava]

😭✌🏻

[rugged sparrow]

that you can lose to

[rough island]

I started playing like 2 weeks before inazuma came out

[rugged sparrow]

wdym u dont wanna play cheese Jean strat against bat in SO

[half anchor]

my first 5 star was qiqi and i went on the genshin discord and kept asking if qiqi was good
but i got gaslighted into thinking she was A tier because everyone felt sorry for me ig 😭

[haughty lava]

is a crit rate 30% and crit damage 150% good?

[half anchor]

oh ye lmao

[rugged sparrow]

depending on when you got her, ppl genuinely think Qiqi is A-tier

1.0 EN community tier list is... yes

[haughty lava]

qiqi is actually decent

[near prism]

there's a difference between all standards being bad and qiqi being bad

[half anchor]

iirc it was around december 2020

[rugged sparrow]

isn't that literally like few months after Genshin launched

[near prism]

yeah people did consider qiqi to be good around release

[half anchor]

ye

[rugged sparrow]

yeah then it tracks, ppl genuinely believed Qiqi is god tier

[near prism]

and truth be told qiqi was massive QoL in the early game, she'd keep you alive

[rugged sparrow]

remember Bennett in B tier and Sucrose in C

[haughty lava]

😭😭delusional

[rugged sparrow]

[half anchor]

i went back to the messages some time later though and people kept sugarcoating by saying she's a good healer lmao

[near prism]

B tier for Bennnett and C tier for suCrose

[haughty lava]

Bennett is the TRUE PYRO ARCHON

[rugged sparrow]

so true

[near prism]

its not about delusional, there just wasnt enough TC done

[rough island]

is sneznaya(sorry for spelling) out yet or no?

[rugged sparrow]

no, next year (also Snezhnaya)

[half anchor]

bennett has been s tier the longest out of any character right

[near prism]

what you now see as normal and natural came about as a result of people doing TC

[haughty lava]

I believe so

[rough island]

yes thank you

[near prism]

same goes with any popular opinion about characters

[rugged sparrow]

him and Sucrose ye, also Fischl

[haughty lava]

I love Bennett but i am not c6ing him

[near prism]

same reason why some good and useful characters are considered bad

[rough island]

is the trend of childe having a million reruns still a meme or not

[rugged sparrow]

my 1.0 4-stars cannot be strong

[near prism]

💔 dont feed into the tierlist mentality

but yes sucrose bennett fischl are stupid strong

[rugged sparrow]

eh i mean I just read it of them being meta-relevant for the longest

Xq is kinda fading away from meta lately due to ppl just chucking Furi Yelan

[half anchor]

it literally doesn't harm your account at all

[haughty lava]

hmmm

[near prism]

tbf this doesnt mean much, and xq is still finding a lot of usage

[rugged sparrow]

Bennett kinda gone during Sumeru era because the meta revolves around not needing Bennett (which is, fair, and even then he's still used when needed)

[half anchor]

every main dps now gets priority infusion so there's no point in not c6ing, its a massive upgrade for pyro dps

[near prism]

xq was bis for nefer during this stygian

[rugged sparrow]

oh definitely yeah

[near prism]

frankly i think people underrate most 4*s

[rough island]

c6ing bennet is okay now?

[near prism]

when people talk about 4*s they only talk about like, 6 of them

[rugged sparrow]

kinda never was bad, arguably

[half anchor]

frankly it was always okay people are just more informed now

unless ur a eula main

[near prism]

''now'' as in the last 4 years

[rugged sparrow]

it was bad for Keqing and Eula
but Keqing is just a shitter unit and Eula still benefits from Bennett even at c6, with drawbacks sure

[haughty lava]

Who mains Eula 😭✌🏻

[half anchor]

and iirc bennett isn't even in her best tteam nowadays

[near prism]

bennett is not even bis for eula, hasnt been since 2.x

[rugged sparrow]

ye Eula and Keqing both get teams outside Bennett nowadays

[rough island]

why is the oceanid evil

[haughty lava]

cause it doesn’t like water

[rugged sparrow]

because bread tastes better than key

[rough island]

yeah but what does it have to do with the primordial water or whatever

[haughty lava]

it thinks the water is too salty for it

and cause like fish drink water it doesn’t like the taste

[half anchor]

err what part are you at

[rugged sparrow]

I legit have no recollection of this specific interaction though

[near prism]

the oceanid fled from fontaine after egeria died

[rugged sparrow]

oh you mean the Oceanid in Liyue?

[near prism]

it has nothing to do with the primordial sea though

[near prism]

id imagine

[half anchor]

i think hes doing fontaine aq rn

[rugged sparrow]

?

[rough island]

navia is on trial

[near prism]

oh 😭

[half anchor]

oh just keep going itll be explained

(probably)

[haughty lava]

apple

[near prism]

@rugged sparrow wdyt, do i get c6 chevvy/iansan before c2 xilo or not

currently 30 pity, c4 on both for 4*s

[rough island]

also neuvillete is a damn dragon?

[rugged sparrow]

[haughty lava]

Yeah

[rugged sparrow]

remember your binding vow, void...

[haughty lava]

So is durin

[near prism]

i mustn't overstep.....

[haughty lava]

I hate durin so much he’s literally just an ageplayer who likes acting like a child 😭

[rugged sparrow]

... he's canonically only few months old no

[near prism]

what?? 😭

[near prism]

he is lmao

[rugged sparrow]

"acting like a child"
maybe because he is one

[hazy lotus]

he just likes to play and draw

[haughty lava]

what does he even do 😭✌🏻

[near prism]

if anything he tries to seem more mature than he is lmao

[rugged sparrow]

like gameplay wise or

[haughty lava]

Lore

[rugged sparrow]

"IM AN ADULT" ahh child

[near prism]

youngest person ever

[rugged sparrow]

go back to the kid's table 🥀

[half anchor]

im guessing you never did the simulanka event

[near prism]

simulanka my beloved

[rugged sparrow]

both Simulanka and Durin's story quest

[haughty lava]

I think I did but I’m just a lore skipper

[near prism]

but that aside, durin's SQ does a really good job of recapping simulanka, as well as adding more context

[near prism]

whose fault is it that you dont know lore then

[haughty lava]

shhhh

he’s doing too much even when i was a kid I didn’t want to step in a puddle 😭

[rugged sparrow]

the consequences of your actions

[near prism]

local discord users learns of the whimsy of childhood, more at 9

[haughty lava]

I know the story how his soul is like the story books soul or whatever

[near prism]

what is bro even saying 💔

[haughty lava]

trust on my soul I get it

[half anchor]

https://tenor.com/view/everyone-gif-6164378316457587654

[haughty lava]

what does durin even do on field lowk

[half anchor]

pyro application + res shred for certain elements

[haughty lava]

what is res shred

I lowk don’t understand Genshin 🫩😭

[rugged sparrow]

he either increases his own dmg when he vapes/melts
or shred resistance of elements involved in pyro reaction (other than hydro/cryo)

res shred = resistance shred
just imagine 4p VV / 4p Deepwood 🥀

[near prism]

might have to whip out the genshin damage formula

[half anchor]

id be surprised he knows what vv stands for if he doesnt know res shred

[rugged sparrow]

[haughty lava]

is vv an artifact set

[half anchor]

yes

[rugged sparrow]

it's Vortex Vanquisher, clearly

[haughty lava]

I’m lowk 3 months old so I don’t know all the terms

[hearty solstice]

is varesa hypercarry better than overload without c6 iansan and chevreuse?

[rugged sparrow]

what hypercarry Varesa team do you have in mind

[hearty solstice]

furina xilonen iansan

[rugged sparrow]

Xianyun where

[hearty solstice]

i dont have her </3

[rugged sparrow]

honestly not entirely sure if it's better

[haughty lava]

Should I pull for varesa or wait for nevulette (I have durin, furina, and venti)

🫩

[rugged sparrow]

up to you

[near prism]

each enemy has certain traits, each enemy has a designated resistance to each element, generally, most enemies have a baseline 10% resistance against all elements

an enemy with 0% resistance doesnt impact your damage at all, meanwhile, an enemy with 10% resistance would multiply your damage by 0.9x

resistance shred lowers the resistance of enemies against certain elements unique to each ability, resistance shred below 0% is halved

so, for example, durin with his hexerei passive active lowers the resistance of elements involved in a pyro reaction by 35%

so, if you were to do 100 damage against a normal enemy, you'd do 90 damage after the resistance multiplier

with durin's shred, you'd do 100*1.125, so 112.5 damage

[rugged sparrow]

if you like Varesa sure, she's a good electro DPS too
if you like Neuv mor-

what the fuck void

[near prism]

the reason its 1.125 is because you go from 10% res to 0, and then the additional 25% res shred is halved below 0

[half anchor]

what is ur overload team option

[haughty lava]

he’s too tapped in to the ‘shin

[near prism]

i tried to explain res shred in a few lines

[rugged sparrow]

ill shred u

[near prism]

yeah sure buddy

[half anchor]

res shred = decrease enemy resistance hence they take more damage

[rugged sparrow]

literally just this

[hearty solstice]

i use dual dps mavuika with her combo but these are my pyro/electro characters

[near prism]

why would this make any sense to someone who doesnt know what res shred is already

[hearty solstice]

i don't know a lot about overload

[rugged sparrow]

ye just Varesa/Mav/Chev/Iansan

[half anchor]

idk maybe they interpret the word shred differently

[haughty lava]

Arlecchino my beloved

[rugged sparrow]

what makes you think a lore skipper would read more than 3 words

[half anchor]

so mav varesa iansan chev?

[near prism]

Well, that's fair

[haughty lava]

my first Genshin team was ameno traveler, iansan, Rosaria, and dehya 🫩🫩🫩

[hearty solstice]

yeah, is it better then varesa iansan furina and xilonen?

[near prism]

Oh you defo didn't play simulanka then

[rugged sparrow]

they did mention they only played like 3 months only?

[haughty lava]

Oh I just googled when simulanka was lol

[rugged sparrow]

no idea where the Iansan is from, probs from last Mav/Emilie banner

[haughty lava]

I wasn’t around during that time

[near prism]

Could be varesa release

[haughty lava]

I started 6.0 phase 2 😭✌🏻

[near prism]

Oh, standard banner iansan then probably

[rugged sparrow]

a

[near prism]

@rugged sparrow c4 chevvy is funny I'd actually play her if I got c6

[half anchor]

chev shreds 40% res and boosts 40% atk
xilo shreds 36% res and gives 40% dmg bonus with cinder city
iansan is common in both teams
mavuika boosts 40% dmg bonus
furina gives 75% dmg bonus
ur varesa alone would do more dmg with the hyper carry team
idk how much dmg ur mavuika does tho

[rugged sparrow]

you also need to account that Varesa OL has very short setup time which can cut off rotation length and thus, more DPS

Iansan Chev combined probs takes less time to use their stuff than Furina's whole EQ animation

[half anchor]

lmao

[hearty solstice]

then I guess I'll use overload if my mavuika is free and then hypercarry if I need mavuika on the other side

[near prism]

Btw mav buff is dmg% not atk

[hearty solstice]

sometimes I genuiely regret pulling furina because her burst animation feels sooooo long

[half anchor]

oh i see ty
i dont have mavuika

[rugged sparrow]

for what it does it's a good trade off
her burst isn't the longest either iirc

[near prism]

Not even close to being the longest

[rugged sparrow]

I think Clorinde still has the longest frames

no fkin clue why they make her like 150 frames

[hearty solstice]

to me it feels </3 and most of the times I just dont use her burst

[half anchor]

https://tenor.com/view/clorinde-clorinde-genshin-clorinde-burst-clorinde-mommy-clorinde-burst-animation-genshin-gif-8431032683429628801

[near prism]

Clorinde and arlecchino duking it out to find who can have the most dead time from burst animation

[hearty solstice]

i use her with tenacity + kazuha's sig for a 40% atk buff and I ignore burst, I only use it with flins tho

[half anchor]

with arlecchino ur already accepting that ur losing time tho cus if ur using it ur healing and removing bol which already loses time

[rugged sparrow]

huh, funny thing
Diluc has 140 frames
which are apparently longer than Clor and Arle

[near prism]

Diluc is not 140f

It's shorter than 2s by a bit, not by much but it's shorter

[half anchor]

im guessing it lets the phoenix fly for a bit after u do the burst

so u don't immediately get to move

[rugged sparrow]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1iLUT8Tafwih3RZbNlA59w6-x5NQdgPvsMc86b7W92DQ/edit?gid=0#gid=0 got this from here with video linked
it hasn't been updated since Mav though which is sad

[half anchor]

mualani is longest apparently

nvm sigewinne is 264 frames bruh

[near prism]

This is a rather dogshit way of checking it

Because they're checking it from outside of the pov burst itself, and checking burst to walk

[rugged sparrow]

can we agree that Eula energy frame is

[near prism]

You'd usually burst to swap or burst to E

[near prism]

That's because her burst is her actively moving around and damaging it

Which I find stupid they count that as her animation lol

[rugged sparrow]

yeh barring anim cancels

[near prism]

It'd be like saying dehya punching the entirety of her burst duration is her burst animation

Which just isn't true for either Sige or dehya

[rugged sparrow]

funny you say that

Dehya isnt on the list somehow

[near prism]

But yeah

[half anchor]

i feel like skirk's burst is kinda long asw

[rugged sparrow]

wait nvm

my search bar wasn't on the excel sheet

[near prism]

I could be misremembering but iirc diluc Q is right around 110isj frames mark?

[near prism]

Counting siges entire burst time as her animation is beyond stupid lmao

[rugged sparrow]

perhaps
but in any case, Furi's anim frames are like 110?

[near prism]

What does her burst animation extend by like 3s at c4

[rugged sparrow]

pretty sure it's basically Iansan EQ + Chev hE

[near prism]

I think the issue with clor and arle

Atleast for clor

Is that her burst anim is pre rendered iirc?

So you can't really animation cancel it in any way

Arle's kinda just sucks

[rugged sparrow]

EVERLASTING AS THE MOON

[near prism]

Lend me some BoL scaling c6, I have to not be entirely dead weight for dps

[half anchor]

btw im kinda curious, does c1 arlecchino out dps c0 skirk

[rugged sparrow]

🔥 ✍️

[near prism]

Like...by themselves or?

[rugged sparrow]

in a vacuum I believe so?

I'm assuming full premium (c0r1 max except c1 Arle ig)

[half anchor]

ye

[near prism]

What is arlecchino's premium in your mind

[rugged sparrow]

^

I'm thinking of Cit Xilo but if it's not that then idk

[half anchor]

either overload or melt
so mav premium except arle instead of mav
or arle chev bennett fischl

[near prism]

She has a few teams that reach 100k

That isn't one of them

[rugged sparrow]

c0r1?

[near prism]

C0r0

[rugged sparrow]

[near prism]

Also how do standard characters play into this

C4 Mona could very well be bis for arle unless we go into dolphin territory

[rugged sparrow]

oh god dont bring c4 Mona and Durin here

[near prism]

Not durin, just mona

[rugged sparrow]

actually not Durin, c4 Mona + Suc

[near prism]

Nah

[rugged sparrow]

fym nah

[near prism]

Mona+fischl

[half anchor]

wouldn't the dmg boost last like 2 seconds tho

[rugged sparrow]

eh won't Fischl ruin hydro aura

[near prism]

Even before hexerei buff, Mona could cover a majority of Arles field time

[near prism]

You lose one vape but gain 45% atk and 180 em in exchange as well as fischl's damage

[rugged sparrow]

[half anchor]

really? its only 6 seconds and more like 5 once you actually start doing damage

[rugged sparrow]

I mean considering what Sucrose gives + shred

[near prism]

6s once the bubble pops

[rugged sparrow]

Mona can extend omen now, too

[near prism]

5s* but also yes Mona can extend omen

[rugged sparrow]

it should be enough for like 5n3d

[half anchor]

yeah but hes saying without durin

[near prism]

Why do you need durin for hexerei

[half anchor]

unless he wants sucrose instad

[rugged sparrow]

oh I mean, just chuck other hexerei members

[near prism]

Sucrose and durin are not the only hexerei members

[rugged sparrow]

actually void go sim it

[half anchor]

who else really works tho

[rugged sparrow]

Fischl vs. Sucrose in Arle Mona vape

[half anchor]

feel like fischls a bit weird if ur not doing overload

[near prism]

Fischl, venti, albedo, lots of characters actually

[near prism]

You're saying this assuming I haven't already

[rugged sparrow]

I wouldn't know

[near prism]

I have

[rugged sparrow]

show

[near prism]

C0r0 arle with c0 Mona is around 95k dps

[near prism]

Not at PC rn blub

Give me like a couple hours and I can send you?

Regardless fischl and sucrose are both good there

[near prism]

Why

She snapshots Bennett, let's arle overload, gives arle plenty of buffs, enables hexerei

[rugged sparrow]

im literally bout to hit the bed (idk why im still awake)

[near prism]

Tomorrow morning then, I'm also heading to sleep as soon as I get to bed

Anyways point is

You can't really just pick c1 arle and c0 skirk in a vacuum and ask which is better without context

Because the answer you seek is inherently context dependant

[rugged sparrow]

but ye what void says
Fischl has similar buffs when compared to Sucrose in terms of vapeload teams
just the diff between Fischl's personal vs. 4p VV

and overload procs ig

[near prism]

Reminder you sit on field w Mona for like 4s for burst anim+omen extension+ E

Vv uptime is rather shady

[rugged sparrow]

right u need to do Mona last

bum ass unit 🥀

my astrologer cannot be this shady

[half anchor]

oh btw do you have to specifically time ur nas with mona or can u spam

[near prism]

You saying this because she's bis for your itto don't lie

[half anchor]

cus its every 0.5s

[near prism]

You animation cancel the CA and then do N3D spam, you don't have to do anything special

Same idea as melt with citlali

[rugged sparrow]

my Itto don't want her

he's an independent strong oni trust

[near prism]

I'll be so real

Itto Mona durin xilo is prob your best itto team

Actually maybe furi over Mona and run dark mode durin but that's a bit more sad for itto

[half anchor]

after dash do u hit 1 more time?

[near prism]

N3d n3d n3d n3d n3d n3d

[rugged sparrow]

I lowk like Albedo Durin Gorou

[near prism]

6 n3d

[half anchor]

for mona's omen extension?

oh sorry i didn't mean arle

[near prism]

No Mona does n1 q n2 e n1 with arle

[near prism]

Fraud mentioned

Get that bum gorou outta there submit to the chiori agenda

[rugged sparrow]

look u dont see the vision

[half anchor]

y the n1 before q

[rugged sparrow]

100k Albedo flower procs

[rugged sparrow]

wipe pyro aura from Bennett likely

or any leftover aura there is

so hydro overtakes > Arle happy

[near prism]

Or instead you could have 70k albedo flower procs and 60k Tamoto procs and 100k a1 procs

[rugged sparrow]

similar concept to Cit doing EQn1

[rugged sparrow]

https://tenor.com/view/choso-choso-jjk-choso-jujutsu-kaisen-choso-anime-jujutsu-kaisen-gif-10037971888755283102

[half anchor]

is it usually not worth getting mona's full duration extension

[near prism]

You know I'm right

[near prism]

Not with arle

[half anchor]

kk

[rugged sparrow]

is there anyone who's even worth the full extension

20s+ rot looking ahh

[near prism]

Not really usually just extending it thrice is enough to cover basically the entirety of your dps field time

[rugged sparrow]

other than Mona herself ofc

[near prism]

Maybe like a Mua team

[rugged sparrow]

[near prism]

My chiori team gets full extension by virtue of quickswap

[rugged sparrow]

whel

[near prism]

Well like, you asked

Anyways @rugged sparrow dark mode durin is stupid good I'm so happy

[rugged sparrow]

he's a fraud for this abyss

dark mode on 12-1-1 🥀

[near prism]

KAZEDA

[rugged sparrow]

HELP ME [insert aoe char]

[near prism]

Venti popping up in every 12-1-1 team like that one kenjaku panel after mahito gets his ass handed in by yuji

"shall I save you, neuvillette"

[rough island]

do i have any way of knowing if im on guranteed or not if i have 0 ways to know what my last character was

[rugged sparrow]

no

[near prism]

Nope

[half anchor]

i arlecchino'd it fairly easily

[near prism]

Yeah it is an easy chamber if you have solid investment

@rugged sparrow btw I saw someone mentioning that, if you do entirely sgt damage, 12-1-1 is like the highest DPS req in history

[rugged sparrow]

yes

didn't we talk about it too

[near prism]

I don't think so? Unless I forgor

[rugged sparrow]

good thing it's almost not the case though

[half anchor]

other than yoimiya are there any other sgt dps

[rugged sparrow]

unless u use bum Yoimiya and gets held at a gunpoint to use hyper Yoi only

[near prism]

I can't think of a single team that is exclusively sgt

[near prism]

I mean even then kaz would do a bunch there

[rugged sparrow]

Yoimiya/YJ/Bennett/??

no look void u gotta submit to sgt Yoi agenda

add bum supports that solely boost Yoi's dmg with very minimal aoe interference

[half anchor]

xilo

[rugged sparrow]

sooner DPS Xilo doing god's work there

[near prism]

40k dps might be reachable

[rugged sparrow]

on god Xilo En2 might outDPS Yoi's entire rot

[rough island]

durin looks super good for teams with xiangling

[near prism]

Yeah, to replace xiangling

[rough island]

as in a xiangling replacement in those teams

[rough island]

yes exactly, i missed his banner by a few days 😔 I run ayato and childe too so its tragic

[near prism]

Btw @rugged sparrow I looked into tart durin xl fischl

Is like 70k dps actually,pretty good

[rugged sparrow]

oh not u mentioning Childe Durin

this guy just got his hopes shattered for missing out Durin by just few days

and they main Childe/Ayato

it's so joever

[near prism]

It's not my fault I just looked into it yday 😭

[half anchor]

is there a good team list website/spreadsheet that has like all team dpses

[rough island]

hopefully he gets a rerun soon

[rugged sparrow]

no

last time someone attempted to make that they get dogpiled

[rough island]

also is there a new set for childe/ayato dps thats better or is it the same old

[rugged sparrow]

same old unless very specific teams (mainly involving Furina)

[rough island]

will furina get a rerun anytime soon , i hear she's a very good support

[half anchor]

i found this on reddit but idk if its accurate

[rugged sparrow]

she just re-ran last patch

[rough island]

I chose the worst time to come back 😭

[rugged sparrow]

what are even their assumptions

Mav can reach 200k DPS yes
but she can also reach higher
where do they draw the line

[half anchor]

idek
sethos 100k dps yeah nah

[rough island]

oh is there any info as to what element the next character is?

[half anchor]

says this on the next slide

[rugged sparrow]

Columbina is hydro, Zibai and Illuga are geo

[rugged sparrow]

what calculations

[rough island]

columbina is the harbinger yes?

[rugged sparrow]

correct

[rough island]

Id rather not get a geo

[rough island]

yes thankfully

[nova swift]

was the harbinger

Columbina is no longer a harbinger

[rugged sparrow]

[half anchor]

why the frick is ganyu above arle neuvillette 🤣

[rugged sparrow]

also when are u gonna pay Sensi out for that bet

[rough island]

also reminds me, is there a reason zhongli is bad now, is there no need for shields anymore or do u just need all 4 characters to do damage/support heavily

[rugged sparrow]

kinda a mix of the two reasons you stated yes

[nova swift]

I have not forgotten

I still think it's dumb and makes 0 sense that she's Hydro but a deal's a deal

[rugged sparrow]

@opal surge payout

[rugged sparrow]

AI generated content trying to be passed as legit 🥀

also who the fuck is Jamal

[rough island]

ganyu isnt good anymore either? 😭

used to be top tier back in my days

[half anchor]

😭 😭

[rugged sparrow]

she's not doing too great nowadays yeah

[half anchor]

yeah she garbage
as a former ganyu main

[rugged sparrow]

rev melt teams haven't gotten a single DLC other than Durin but he barely amounts to any modern team upgrades that u can get

[rough island]

this used to clear abyss back in my days 😔

[half anchor]

i literally suffered for so unbelievably long with ganyu
my next dps was mualani 😭

4 full regions behind

[rugged sparrow]

honestly blame the devs

they had no reason not to release a rev melt DLC

[rough island]

lore question, are archons still immortal without their gnosis

[rugged sparrow]

I don't think they're immortal even with their gnosis?

[half anchor]

they can't die to natural cause but they can be killed

[rough island]

i mean theyre thousands of years old though

[rough island]

yeah thats what i mean

[rugged sparrow]

from little that we know

[rough island]

immortal not invincible

[hazy lotus]

i was saying she’s hydro too where’s mine

[rugged sparrow]

I mean gods and dragon sovereigns live for thousand of years wihout the aid of gnosis

[rough island]

oh celestia, is it truly closer now or did it finally get a 3d sprite rather than a png

[near prism]

long lived life forms, not immortal

[hazy lotus]

i need it for c2r1 this is your chance to be a feminist

by helping women in need (me)

[rugged sparrow]

[rough island]

is it revealed why the fatui want the gnosis anyways, just answer yes or no, please no spoilers

[half anchor]

a yes or no would be a spoiler but no

[rugged sparrow]

we can kinda infer why they want the gnosis but it's still theory ye

it hasn't been explicitly said

[nova swift]

It's because they want to play chess but they haven't realized you need more than 7 pieces yet

[rugged sparrow]

[rough island]

were the archons born in celestia as well? or were they just given godhood rather than be born as gods

[half anchor]

also technically unknown

[rugged sparrow]

it's not unknown

[half anchor]

i lowkey dont trust venti

[rough island]

I assume the game isnt related to honkai impact then

[rugged sparrow]

they won the archon war and thus given the gnosis

[half anchor]

yeah but what if they be lying

[near prism]

archon isnt a race, its a status

[rugged sparrow]

I mean that's the official info that we have, still

[rough island]

who even was the archon war against again, just gods against gods?

[rugged sparrow]

basically ye

[near prism]

venti is a windsprite, zhongli is an adeptus,for example

[rough island]

yeah i know but theyre called gods, were they born as such beings or were they made into it once they were given their status

[near prism]

god is also not a race

[rough island]

oh true, i remember that now, although i dont remember what a windsprite is

[rugged sparrow]

basically just a wind spirit

a lowly life form

[near prism]

god is used in a very loose way in genshin, it basically just means powerful being with dominion over something

[rugged sparrow]

just think of a slime

[rough island]

any more info on the kiana looking girl in the start of the game?

[half anchor]

r u the guy thats still doing fontaine aq rn

[rugged sparrow]

(yes)

[rough island]

yes

[rugged sparrow]

yes later on

[near prism]

yes but all of it is from trailers

[nova swift]

It is technically

[rough island]

wot how

[near prism]

hardly

[nova swift]

Dvalin is shown in one HI3 quest/mission

[near prism]

at most they're connected by existing in the same imaginary tree

[rugged sparrow]

probably just by the virtue of being on the same imaginary tree

yea

[rough island]

is it okay to know, as in doesnt spoil too much

[nova swift]

It's also heavily theorized/implied that the organization that destroyed Skirk's homeland was|| the IPC (I think I got that abbreviation right? I don't play HSR so idk)||

but that's hsr

[near prism]

it doesnt particularly spoil anything

but itsalso better to watch it after you finish everything up until nod krai

[near prism]

theorized but with no proof

[rough island]

i played honkai impact but never played star rail

[rugged sparrow]

the lore of each game is pretty self-contained anw

[rough island]

isnt it more straightforward abt the 2 games being connected though

[near prism]

hsr and hi3 were basically confirmed to exist in the same world as i understand it

[rough island]

no p sure its different worlds no?

[rugged sparrow]

ye but their lore rarely intersects

[near prism]

hi3 is protected from aeons gaze idr how, and iirc the cocoon of finality in hi3 was described as having the same power as an emanator or something

[rugged sparrow]

so it's like u dont need to play either game to enjoy the lore of the other

[near prism]

again world is a very convoluted word here

[nova swift]

There are (from what I've heard) confirmed HI3 characters in HSR

[near prism]

do you mean like, different leaves on the imaginary tree?

[nova swift]

like Welt I think his name was?

[rough island]

yes

[near prism]

yes but welt is a special case, he actively left the hi3 universe and doesnt even remember how

[rough island]

isnt he the only one

[rugged sparrow]

got hit by Astral Express

isekai'd 🥀

[nova swift]

idk I don't play HSR I only know what I've heard

I've briefly played HI3

not enough to be deep into the lore but enough to know the basics

[near prism]

wait is that why hsr writing is so bad, is it just a glorified isekai

[rugged sparrow]

hey man some isekai are good

[near prism]

https://tenor.com/view/toji-fushiguro-jjk-jujutsu-kaisen-toji-fushiguro-gif-2362126873482327818

[rugged sparrow]

anw gotta hit the bed it's 6 AM and I still haven't slept

[near prism]

when are you planning to wake up?

[rough island]

does kiana ever even come back from the moon in hi3 storyline, i never played after that

[rugged sparrow]

when my body wills it

[near prism]

fair enough, im also gonna hit the hay, its only 1am here but i pulled 2 all nighters in a row with naps between them

[rough island]

4 am here

why are we all not good at sleeping

[rugged sparrow]

all degen

[rough island]

i gotta catch up on genshin archon quests that i missed for 2yrs+, dont have time for sleep

[lyric cargo]

Flins > Varesa seems kinda sus. After Columbina I'd expect it, but right now Varesa should be ahead
I don't see Nefer, so I assume this was made before she came out

@half anchor ^

[lyric cargo]

what I've seen is more like:
Mav: 140k
Skirk: 130k
Varesa: 125k
Flins: 110k
Nefer: 110k
Arle: 99k

but from what Sensi said that's also too high

including teams (less overview, but context is kinda required):
Mav Iansan Citlali Bennett: 140k
Skirk Furina Escoffier Flex: 130k
Varesa Iansan Chev Durin: 125k
Flins Ineffa Aino Sucrose: 110k
Nefer Lauma hydro flex: 110k
Arle Durin Fischl Chev: 99k

Mua Mona Sucrose PMC is probably in there somewhere, but I haven't seen many calcs

[lyric cargo]

this is supposed to be Mav and Skirk without fancy combos, btw

Nefer needs her dash cancels to be good

[half anchor]

does skirk have fancy combos?

[lyric cargo]

the note I saw seems to suggest so, but I'm not aware what they'd be

[opal surge]

its q e n2dn2dn2dn2dn3wn2dn2dn3wn2cdn2dn3wn2dn2

[lyric cargo]

walk cancels

[midnight pond]

is the new event bow the best 4 star wep for any units? seems decent

[elder bluff]

ororon, fischl, jahoda

I am once again have fewer than 3k mystic enhancement ores
I need to farm more ores

[crude dirge]

for ororon and jahoda i think fav could be better

and for fischl u gotta use skill twice since it snapshots

[lyric cargo]

gotta swap off-field for it to trigger in between, as well

[crude dirge]

like 3 seconds for buffed skill or one second for normal

[lyric cargo]

might fall away after the first rotation, if it's been < 8s since Oz left the field

[lyric cargo]

normal?
and why 3 seconds? it should be 1 skill hit 🤔

[crude dirge]

swap on her and skill + char swap cooldown, hit with oz and char swap cooldown, again to fischl and reuse with again char swap cooldown, continue rotation

[lyric cargo]

oh, you mean how long it takes

I thought you were saying you have to wait 3s to swap back to her

[crude dirge]

at this point just yae miko

[lyric cargo]

nah, don't waste a 5★ pull 😅

maybe just accept you won't have the buff for the first rotation
or give her a different weapon

[lyric cargo]

I'd say fav wins out on ororon and on Fischl it kinda depends if you need the ER (you might in Stygian)

but it's still a good addition imo, idk if you have infinite copies of fav. someone might end up holding it

and this bow kinda only costs mora and weapon exp to level (both are discounted while the event is ongoing)

it needs Natlan domain mats to ascend, which you can get from the Natlan sigil shop without spending resin

if you've completed Natlan exploration or close to it

[crude dirge]

how many people have natlan sigil shop unlocked though

[lyric cargo]

I'd assume everyone can do it, 100% natlan exploration before the event ends is very possible

[midnight pond]

ty. sounds like actually worth leveling during 1.5 event

[woeful reef]

what is the best team for c6 tighnari no columbina

[crude dirge]

how are we supposed to make one with columbina if we dont know her kit

could be tighnari fischl furina nahida?

or kuki instead of fischl

[lyric cargo]

I think they're saying "no Columbina"

[rugged sparrow]

it's probably smth like Nahida Iansan +1

[lyric cargo]

his teambildung is kinda rough, he wants teammates that fit into short rotations and take up some field time without taking too much

I've seen Fischl, Kazuha, Nahida, Yae, Furina + Baizhu + Raiden, Lauma, ..

Yae is probably just not good enough to recommend pulling today

[lyric cargo]

Iansan is interesting, can Tigh maintain her buff?
maybe he deals his damage quick enough that it doesn't matter

last teammate probably Fischl?

[rugged sparrow]

ye even pre-c6, Tigh can unload all his 3 CAs + ult with high Iansan buff

[rugged sparrow]

ig it depends on whether you want to hyperbuff Tigh's dmg or just run a "normal" Tigh team

[lyric cargo]

highest team dps I'd say

[rugged sparrow]

that's the thing, too

DPS is kinda fucky when you consider vertical since some teams have low DPS (terrible sustained) but enough damage to burst specific content

[lyric cargo]

I kinda only optimize for fearless stygian these days

[rugged sparrow]

for Fearless, c6 Tigh with good vertical can defo 2 rotates certain match ups

[lyric cargo]

if it clears within the 2 minutes we have, it's the same to me

so I'd consider multiple rotations

[rugged sparrow]

for prolonged sustain you'd probably just go back to Furina + Kuki with c6 Tigh since he can on-field

[lyric cargo]

kinda have to hug the enemy with kuki?
I think Furina Baizhu is more comfort, but maybe doesn't sheet higher

[rugged sparrow]

means ditching Nahida but can slot Ineffa ig

[woeful reef]

i have yae already

[woeful reef]

i cleared the baptist fearless with c6 tighnari c0 nahida c6 xq and kuki

[rugged sparrow]

don't need c6 Tigh for that

[woeful reef]

would my c0 alhaitham have been better lol

[rugged sparrow]

you can always try

[lyric cargo]

I was somewhat interested in whether there'd be a Tighnari Durin Fischl team
since Durin can shred dendro, electro, pyro all at once

would need enough electro to put out burning and make it a quicken + overload team, though
otherwise Tighnari's damage drops from losing spread, and idk if you can justify bringing him then
compared to chev overload teams ^^

[rugged sparrow]

you can definitely try running it

dunno where you'd put that team in this Stygian though

[woeful reef]

someone with durin can try that😓😓 not me tho

[rugged sparrow]

at most probs on the Iktomisaurus

[lyric cargo]

I'd definitely have tried, yeah
had to skip Durin though, it wasn't a banner that gave me incentive to pull him now
so couldn't justify to spend my Columbina savings

same thing with Varesa, I pulled while the 4-stars were good and would've been happy with an early 5-star
but now they're c6 and it's less attractive
non-guaranteed, too, so I might have to put in quite a few pulls to force Varesa

[rough island]

this just happened

[rugged sparrow]

did u even sleep

[rough island]

yes

but yes im at "finale" now

[rugged sparrow]

enjoy

[rough island]

do i get to the question answer things we did with raiden, zhong and the others

[rugged sparrow]

ye

it's a recurring thing for every nation so far

also for Inazuma, we did it with Yae, not Raiden

[rough island]

oh right, why was it not with raiden again? wasnt she p chill with us at that point

[rugged sparrow]

kinda, not really?

I mean Yae literally had to come to our rescue

[rough island]

I mean at the end of the inazuma quests, she was p buddies with us no? we went out to get food and everything

[rugged sparrow]

that was on her story quest

which is basically post-AQ

during AQ she just needed time for herself to collect her thoughts

[rough island]

ah right

[opal surge]

Oh I didint even see this

[rugged sparrow]

c2r1 bina?

[opal surge]

I dont know what im doing yet what if nicole is a dps

i have like ~350 wishes rn

[rugged sparrow]

wtf

[opal surge]

I didint pull yet in NK

I have nothing

bruteforcing worst racism mechanic yet

what is the easiest region to explore, i really wanna get xilonen but literally have about 4 primos 😭 i have nod krai 100% when it came out, so thats done, and mondstadt basically 100 as well.

[rugged sparrow]

definitely not Sumeru ig cuz Aranyaka takes forever and it locks most of explo progress compared to other regions
the Desert quests also take quite a bit

[serene sandal]

problem is everywhere is like 55 percent so theres like no completely undone areas

[rugged sparrow]

so a toss up between Inazuma, Fontaine, Natlan, and Liyue
forgot which region has the best chest density though, iirc it's Fontaine

[serene sandal]

i think fontaine might be mostly explored tbh 😭

yeah all of fontaine is like 70% done

[rugged sparrow]

welp better start exploring then

[serene sandal]

btw is there a way for the official interactive map to sync to your game so you know what youve already explored

[elder bluff]

no

you mark the interactive map yourself

[serene sandal]

yeah i give up w this

lowk wanna quit the game in general anyways ill js take this as a sign

[crude dirge]

finale of the deep?

[crude dirge]

also dont use official interactive map

[serene sandal]

dw ab it anymore probs js gonna not play anymore at all tbh

[lyric cargo]

Nod-Krai > Natlan > Fontaine / Sumeru / Inazuma >>>>> Mondstadt, Liyue

NK has the best compass.

Natlan has 50 primos on each offering system level and more primos from oculi and shrines if depth than older regions.

Fontaine / Sumeru / Inazuma depend on how close you're to the next intertwined fate on the offering system, imo. Whichever is closest will give the best short-term exploration value

Sumeru and Inazuma are both annoying in terms of locked areas

[serene sandal]

thanks for the advice but tbh i give up w genshin, im sick of playing for hours for next to nothing in rewards

[lyric cargo]

https://genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/Offering_System

oh, and once an offering system is maxed out it might make sense to move on to one that isn't

[lyric cargo]

exploration is alright imo, quests are not

[serene sandal]

while there isnt the qol stuff i need (skip button, etc.) im js not gonna bother playing

[lyric cargo]

getting stuck in only slowly skippable dialogue boxes and not being able to control my char is my biggest gripe as well

I guess they don't wanna improve it because that makes grinding primos too easy?

[serene sandal]

yeah tbh i dont get why they havent put it in yet because it has no negative draw backs, the ppl who r gonna skip everythign (me) are more likely to quit the game than continue going through it

and as well the farming in this is so bad compared to hsr

[full sonnet]

this good?

traveller is on hero of cinder and jean is on viridescent

[rugged sparrow]

Traveller cant proc Cinder at all unless enemy has aura

just Bennett
if Jean is c4 it's fine

[lyric cargo]

do you not have Faruzan?

[full sonnet]

Wdym i thought it procs when they're in nightsoul

[lyric cargo]

After the equipping character triggers a reaction related to their Elemental Type, all nearby party members gain a 12% Elemental DMG Bonus for the Elemental Types involved in the elemental reaction for 15s.

If the equipping character is in the Nightsoul's Blessing state when triggering this effect, all nearby party members gain an additional 28% Elemental DMG Bonus for the Elemental Types involved in the elemental reaction for 20s.

The equipping character can trigger this effect while off-field, and the DMG bonus from Artifact Sets with the same name do not stack.

it triggers when the equipping char triggers a reaction

it buffs the elements involved in the reaction

the buff is +12% without nightsoul state, +40% with

[full sonnet]

I don't understand he does do that

Does it not work with anemo?

[lyric cargo]

what reaction does he trigger?

only an anemo unit can trigger swirl

this is because anemo usually can't exist as an aura

it can only react with another element that is already present

[full sonnet]

I don't like faruzan plus i was doing attack speed shenanigans

[lyric cargo]

so anemo can react with pyro

but pyro cannot react with anemo

[lyric cargo]

usually you pick one unit you like, and give them whatever teammates are best for them

unless there are multiple equally good support options

[full sonnet]

Should i stick with just pyro swirl or throw yelan in there

[lyric cargo]

Yelan will prevent Durin from shredding enemy anemo resistance

[crude dirge]

u can take ifa with ttds and scroll

he can proc scroll

[dull smelt]

which feaather should i use on venti?

[crude dirge]

right one with cr rolls
i feel like u need the er and cr

[full sonnet]

Is there a baptist guide

Im using alaitham yelan xinqui and fischel

[lyric cargo]

stygian?

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oZaTUAOfXgA

I haven't watched this one yet

it's a channel I watch for theater guides, normally

the main thing to know is what elements each shield is weak against

alltogether, you want either freeze or bloom teams

pyro shields are weak to hydro,
hydro shields are weak to dendro or cryo

https://genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/Ward#Reaction_Cost

[half anchor]

jus brute force it with skirk fr

[opal surge]

i dont know if baptists skirk can be called a bruteforce whens hes literally the best character in th e game for it

and her team answers all 3 element shields

[rugged sparrow]

isn't Nefer better

2 cost clearing Dire

[opal surge]

Im pretty sure skirk is just faster

[rugged sparrow]

Baptist stagger during shield transition is enough for 3 Nefer's CA which seems too perfect

(with cancels)

[opal surge]

but yes nefer can do it at lower cost but ill just assume people have teams

[rugged sparrow]

gimme Escoff pls

also unrelated but idk if I asked, u pulling YSG? @opal surge

[opal surge]

i will definitely try my funds are looking a bit cooked ngl

wbu?

[rugged sparrow]

as much as I want her I don't have Dialyn

• Alice surprise re-run on 2nd half

and she's guaranteed

m2 time

I also fear Yuzuha might re-run in 2.6 considering how anomaly coded Angels of Delusions are

need that m2 Yuzu + m2 Alice starter pack

[half anchor]

idk in the best speedruns i only see nefer
but ig thats different cus of constellations

[rugged sparrow]

[opal surge]

you have so much vertical in zzz no

[rugged sparrow]

ehh

[opal surge]

i feel like youre always going for cons when we talk about pull plans

[rugged sparrow]

only premium S-ranks I have mindscapes are like Yanagi, Alice, and Trigger

[opal surge]

Oh okay wow

[rugged sparrow]

m2 Yanagi, m1 Alice, m1 Trigger

lemme see if I forgot anyone

yeah just those
all DPS except Zhu have their sigs though

[half anchor]

are wuwa/zzz/hsr better than genshin
i've never played them (played maybe 30 mins-1 hour of wuwa but thats it)

[rugged sparrow]

define "better"

[half anchor]

in ur opinions

[rugged sparrow]

I like ZZZ better cuz it has Lycaon

that's kinda literally it

[opal surge]

theyre just completely different games

its like is e33 better than elden ring idk

not a good comparison to make

[half anchor]

wuwa seems almost identical to genshin tho

[rugged sparrow]

if ure asking from a more objective approach / specific subject then maybe you'll get better answers

[half anchor]

nah im moreso just curious in ppls opinions

[rugged sparrow]

but yeah what Sensi said too, they're inherently diff games

[opal surge]

wuwa and genshin are more comparable but theyre still drastically different

you can assume that the oppinions in a genshin help channel by genshin helping regulars is biased though

[rugged sparrow]

Genshin doesn't have playable dilfs
HSR does
therefore, HSR > Genshin

[opal surge]

HSR is worse than the other 3 that much Ill say

althought your point is valid outside of that

[rugged sparrow]

Gallagher my goat

[opal surge]

HSR kinda just sucks

But they used to be better in the past and maybe itll improve agian who knows

[rugged sparrow]

it's turn-based which is like, very niche ig

[half anchor]

im guessing dilf means male milf

[rugged sparrow]

yes

[half anchor]

i heard it was turn based combat and that put me off

[opal surge]

I think HSR can be used as a case study why adding a skip button can make the game worse

[half anchor]

yeah kinda triggers me when ppl keep asking for a skip button
like id understand it in world quests and stuff but it just ruins the story for archon quests

[near prism]

0 story relevance
0 teams he's good in
4 endgame modes where he can no longer sustain

[rugged sparrow]

you're dead to me

[near prism]

LOL

[full sonnet]

Yes

[opal surge]

@rugged sparrow am I fried

[rugged sparrow]

are u gunning m0p1

if u win all ur 50/50s should be good I think, plenty of new stuff in 2.5

what's ur pity too

[opal surge]

i dont have pity I kinda took a break this patch after pulling dialyn

had a bunch to do before christmas break for work

🥀

[rugged sparrow]

[opal surge]

I would like m0p1 yeah but i have brimstone which doesnt seem too bad

[rugged sparrow]

last minute work stuff before big holiday sucks ass

[rugged sparrow]

coping mechanism

[opal surge]

[rugged sparrow]

we all know DPSes without sigs are bums

[opal surge]

its true

[full sonnet]

Anyone try a physical durin?

[opal surge]

I imagine its literally exactly as good as every other character played on phys

[rugged sparrow]

the Eula slander

[full sonnet]

So mid?

[opal surge]

mid is a somewhat polite way to put it, but sure

[full sonnet]

How bad is eula now

[lyric cargo]

I'd say mid is Eula. physical Durin would be beyond terrible

[rough island]

oh hi ur here

would you mind explaining to me what a lunar even is?

are there new reactions to the game after the dendro reactions?

[viral mulch]

minecraft lunar client

[rugged sparrow]

lunar reaction?

yeah new reaction tied to Nod-Krai 5-star units

[rough island]

no idea, watched some genshin videos and they mention lunar a lot, lunar characters and such

[rugged sparrow]

cuz money

[rough island]

what does nod-krai mean

[rugged sparrow]

that's the region after Natlan

[viral mulch]

do nod krai you have so much going on to be happy for

[rough island]

wot, whos the archon there

or is it an addition like watatsumi island and chasm

[rugged sparrow]

Columbina is marketed as Nod-Krai archon equivalent

[rough island]

think im close to the archon quest of unlocking natlan

also why in the world is the durin quest in natlan
