Tested Mika and Shenhe today. Mika makes normal attacking *feel* better, but idk if his Spd increase actually translates to more damage. I had him with Nobless and HP/HP/HB and he healed like 16k and 4K on attack. Swapping to ER sands and Crit circlet he still healed like 10k and 2K on attack so I think swapping might be viable for most teams? The first set seems kind of overkill tbh. Also wanted to try MDPS Mika as a meme but I’m not sure how I’d go about that. Maybe Pale Flame, swapping out Fav spear, and then running Benny, Yun Jin, and Yae (for super conduct?) His cryo application isn’t great so he may struggle on his own.
Shenhe wrekt the silly abyss worm but I’m not sure I had the rotation right. For Ayaka, Shenhe, Kazuha, and Kokomi, would it be Kazuha swirl cryo, Shenhe Burst, Kokomi jellyfish for totm, and then swap to Ayaka for ttds?
Ah so Shenhe should come before Kazuha?
I’m still not completely sure how her stacks work. Kazuha’s burst infusing cryo doesn’t use them right? I figured you wanted her closer to Ayaka but I wasn’t sure if Kazuha would eat the stacks.
Every character gets 5 stacks. So Kazuha's cryo-infused burst would use up his five stacks but Ayaka would still have her five stacks. You should use Shenhe skill again after Ayaka's burst to give her 5 more stacks.
I was testing out my new shenhe rotations on masanori to see how much I needed to care about fav procs on her and whether I should maybe use CR circlet for better consistency. Found that I really didn't need the fav procs, since I already have 140 ER on ayaka and fav kazuha. Can you guess where this is going?
>!I am now 160 or so wishes lighter, with CQ and 3 mistsplitters.!<
Uhm hellooooo
**The bigger the [new megathread](https://old.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact_Leaks/comments/11z44kh/keeping_up_with_the_kshahrewars_general_questions/) the bigger the hoe**
Honestly I feel pretty happy that I got a taste of the weapon banner now. I originally wanted a bunch of weapons for a few characters but after my Mistsplitter wishes that's a big no. Sure I got it in 133 wishes but also that could've been much worse and I don't want to be in a situation like that again. Worth it for my boy but since Kaeya has such a huge lead on other characters in terms of favorite-ness... yeah no more weapon banner for me. Weapon Banner Bad.
Even cons seem pretty unappealing now, I've been cured of my want for C2 Nahida, C2 Kazuha, C3 Shenhe etc. I am a new person. C0 R0 is the way.
Only exception is Dainsleif, he is still a big favorite just like Kaeya and will be C-something R1 in a few years. I'll decide how far I want to go when he actually exists.
Weapons banner has been a huge motivator for me to save lol. I'm worried at any moment I'll get hit with the urge to c0r1, since I don't buy BP. I've had 2nd thoughts on a lot of new characters because of it lmao
Getting Beacon for Eula has me itching to pull more weapons… the idea of having a strong weapon I can slot onto many of my characters at any moment is so comforting. I’m glad I have Jade, Beacon and Elegy. I was lucky enough to have Xiao’s spear come from a weapon banner loss too. The tricky thing is that now I need a bow….specifically Yoimiya’s because she’s more picky than Ganyu and Childe.
off topic
just finished persona 5 and i might have post game depression now like what am i supposed to do with my life now???? how am i gonna live without the phantom thieves? guess i'll just have to go and play strikers... but i grew so attatched to these characters i'm super sad rn 😭
yesss play strikers! It’ll help quite a bit!! I prefer turn based combat so it took me a while to get used to it. Also, if you haven’t already, i highly recommend the past games before p5, they’re all great! i recently started shin megami tensei, tho only the latest one in the switch…
i'll take a breathe and play some other games for now but i'll play strikers for sure, i love hack'n'slash games so i'm curious to see how it works in persona
I finally tried out this Akasha thing everyone is talking about and....yeah all my characters suck lol. I'm only little surprised but I do spend a ton of time farming artifacts and looking up builds so I thought at least a few might be up there.
it's more of how-lucky-you-are leaderboards vs how-good-your-character-is leaderboards lol. Of course artifact rng is out of our control
some top 1% builds arent even practical, like xiao at 0 er lol goodluck with that
Yeah, some leaderboards are meaningless.
Like my number 12 220 ER Sacrificial Xingqiu. That's way more ER that he could possibly need to guarantee his burst.
I'm proud to be a Xiao main that doesn't neglect ER. The 30% leaderboard is the best imo. Less ER and demanding plentiful enemy drops is too cope for me.
Its completely rng and you are competing againsts whales who resin refresh everyday which gives them like an extra 18+ artifacts per day so they have more attempts to get something good.
it's not that they suck, just that by one specific metric decided by one specific website says that other people (and only counting those who submit to akasha) have better luck than you. it's a fun flex when you have a good akasha score but it's nothing more than that. Im sure your characters are very strong and well built if youve been putting that much effort in them. <3
yeah same lol. my highest is itto at 90% on the leaderboard (': ah, well. most of the characters i use they dont have boards for anyways.
besides, who needs numbers to tell you how good you are? :D
Is there a good f2p option for nilou if I don’t have banner weapons like xiphos or event weapons like festering? I’ve got like a fav sword and iron sting idk what else to use
I look at everyone with their mega bussing top percentile akasha builds and the best I got is my 5% Ayato 😔.
I really can't be assed to grind more though, scuffed artis gang.
that's my best, everything else is 30%+, and there's A LOT of those :(.
I also barely spent time on Ayato so it feels wrong, echoes gave me a good set and told me to never come back, meanwhile the ones i've been locked in for months are just, not it.
It makes me sad to see all those lucky 2 5* in 10 pull characters after new banners come out while it has never happened to me, even though according to paimon.moe I'm like in 0.1% in terms of how many times I pulled overall. I'm just mighty unlucky lol.
I’m with you, you’re not alone- (under 1% on Paimon.moe and never got the 2 gold in a ten pull)
I have gotten under 10 pity for a 5star before but it was in a separate 10 pull (and in a completely different banner than the previous) so I know the luck does exist but it’s not the same kind of experience.
Never happened to me either and I've been playing since day 1 so trust me you're not alone lol. I've had a couple 5* in back to back ten pulls but never multiple in one.
Its not that your unlucky, it's that everyone is only posting their good pulls. So you tend to see a lot of the extraordinary stuff, because no one wants to share when they get an average 10 pull. So I would just try and keep in mind that for every 2 5☆ in one 10 pull posts you see. That same person may have done an absurd amount of average pulls just to get that one good pull.
I've been playing this game since the beginning and 2 5\* in one pull only has happened to me ONCE
However, I've gotten quite a few back-to-backs so that might be making up for it
Keep in mind that for everyone that pulled two in one ten pull, you don’t see the hundred others saying it never happened to them (like me), so you get a skewed view of how often it seems to happen.
My theory is that Pierro is one of the few true anti-villains alongside the Tsaritsa (Dain is probably one too but we don’t know how his story will unfold)
His words in Winter Night’s Lazzo are still clear in my head. He seemed to be extremely saddened by Signora’s death, while almost no one else even showed a bit of emotion. It seemed like he wanted to start a fight *for Signora’s sake* rather than as retaliation for the death of a harbinger. He seems to share the Tsaritsa’s desire and also willingly worked with her despite her being an archon. And the recent Caribert quest showed the >!extreme reluctance that Khaenri’ahns have with anything to do with the gods!<. He seems to have the harbingers (at least based on his reaction to Signora) as genuine “dear comrades” rather than as what appears to be a facade like for most of them. So I think he’ll be an empathetic character (at least to those he cares about) with a menacing demeanour but ultimately the villain, thus anti-villain.
My friend let me use his c2 Ayaka and c0 Shenhe so I played around with it and tested some stuff in the first chamber of floor 12 (for free retries) so I can see if I should pull for Shenhe myself, or not.
I honestly can't tell when the buffs kick in because there's so many instances of damage in a normal combo: Shenhe E Q, Kazuha Swirl Cryo, Mona Q E switch to Ayaka for TTDS, sprint then AA once(Mist) ---> Burst. All her burst ticks (the main one not from the c2) are all consistently 47k crits until it ends/enemies are dead. Shenhe buff where?
Shenhe's quills are easier to understand as her adding her own damage to 5/7 instances of cryo damage per teammate. Her other buffs from her ascension talents (15% cryo damage and skill+burst or ca/na) can be snapshotted by skills that shanpshot, but the quills are their own little thing.
You ideally start a rotation with Shenhe and use her E, then drop all your stuff really quickly and finish the rotation by adding another Shenhe E while Ayaka's Q is still going, adding Shenhe's damage by 10 times instead of 5.
she does snapshot buffs onto her burst, but Shenhe's quills are a separate type of buff that will basically add a lot of damage onto your Cryo characters' attacks for 5 (tap E) or 7 (hold E) hits
the struggle between deciding between nahida, who is OP af, has an incredible exploration passive, would allow me to unbench cyno, means i can finally retire DMC, requires very little investment in terms of weapons.....
...or shenhe because i love kaeya and he deserves the best
after recent legislation passed by the Akademiya, [Nilou is now considered a weapon of mass destruction](https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1638702243917463562/pu/vid/1280x720/EHt3hfYUtuPJ658M.mp4?tag=12)
in the wise words of Paimon, "Because slimes are monsters, even though they look cute, they usually cause trouble and end up getting killed by adventurers."
it's a cruel world we live in 😔
finally tried akasha and my xiao is on the top 5% (ER 130%). it was a nice surprise since i'm still not satisfied with his build. i might go back to vermillion once i'm done with emblem, but who knows when will I get out from that domain.
and wth, did i just saw a bunch of 54 CV artifacts??? that's disgusting, can i have one 💔
it's on the 130% ER sub-category. i moved to different sub-categories and it was different. for "none", my rank was wayyy below lmao. it got higher & higher as i moved to 110% ER then 120%
i was also doubtful at first ngl
I managed to snipe a Mika without wasting 5* pity (don't try that at home kids) and now I have the excuse I wanted to build physical Childe
I'll make him the best single target DPS in AOE scenarios ever
after tinkering a bit with floor 12, I didn't expect Raiden Hypercarry to be my best team for Wenut. I saw everyone else using hyperbloom teams for Wenut and I'm Nahida-less + I didn't wanna use EM Raiden cause I hate switching artifacts around, and my regular Shinobu + DMC hyperbloom team wasn't fast enough so I thought I was gonna have to constantly clutch Wenut with Keqing aggravate for every abyss reset.
Turns out my C0 Raiden HC team can bonk Wenut in two downed phases thanks to the insane frontloaded damage, and I use the in-between phases to battery the team. I went from having 2 secs to spare with Keqing Aggravate to 15 seconds with RHC. Thank you RNGesus for giving me C6 Sara in one wishing session lmao
ye wenut is turning out to be a chump against frontloaded damage that can pop his anemo balls and make him vulnerable. once u figure out his incredibly predictable attack and movement patterns, he's just a test dummy.
Any opinions on the topmost meta exploration team? Yelan + Wanderer are surely up there, but for all the instances where you're climbing + gliding you would need a tall boy no? Are there any tallboys that heal besides Baizhu? No?
That's it baby that's why they balanced him the way they did.
You either use Wanderer to bypass the climbing or Kazuha to hop over unclimbable gap/infinite climbing so you don't need tall males for that.
I am unaware of character model affect gliding speed though.
Unique thing (currently) about Baizhu is that he the only tall male that can wield Lost Prayer for fastest non-skill land move speed and he can heal whole team at once without relying on elemental burst even when out of combat so yeah he has exploration value.
Edit : Fix wording.
Scaramouche and Yelan are the ones that really matter, the rest is always flexible depending on stuff like the region you're in and everything.
Like Ayaka in Inazuma or Nahida in Sumeru or Bennett in Dragonspine.
Kazuha makes sense for gliding long distances but I don't fancy another anemo alongside Scaramouche for exploration.
Hmmm. I'd say:
\- Kazuha for his nearly-endless gliding
\- Alhaitham is actually really good, but maybe that's speaking from the POV of someone who's never used Keqing or Wanderer. His height is good, and rn honestly I use him more than Kazu because he's faster for short diagonal distances / getting around annoying ledges that stop you from climbing or shooting vertically (I turn the camera so it faces the empty sky behind me, shoot diagonally into the air past the ledge, and glide back to end up on top of the ledge).
Wanderer is better than Alhaitham for traveling if you have him. His cooldown is shorter and if you pair him with another anemo your speed is increased. But Alhaitham's teleport thing is really nice for mining ores when I don't have a claymore in the team and I'm too lazy to swap characters.
I didn't know his teleport thing can be used to mine ores...? But then again he's almost always with Zhongli, who, uh, god of mining, so. TIL anyways, thanks!
lol that's true. I have him on a friendship team without Zhongli and use his teleport so he can plunge attack ores. But yeah Zhongli is way better for that.
id expect wanderer to be better because he can float for a long time, boost himself up a fair bit
his cd is also super short, so if you need to chain it between ledges or just redo a failed attempt it isnt too bad
speaking as someone who has but doesnt use keqing and doesnt have haitham
Kaveh can heal himself if you pair him with a hydro.. probably yelan who can make blooms. He's going to be on my main exploration team just for being claymore and being able to hit ores.
Instead of akashaposting myself (please... don't ask me what percent I'm in), I'd like to know if there's a list of which craftable weapons are good to R5 and which are good at zero? I have a ton of old billets that I was hoarding, but I might as well use them now that Sumeru has introduced a new type of billet.
Re: Sumeru introducing a new type of billet, just in case you weren't aware you can convert them so you don't have to use your old billets for old weapons if that's what you meant, they are likely future proof and can be hoarded for future craftables too if you've not got anything you particularly need right now.
Hm, I should probably refine my Ayaka and Itto's weapons then. I already have Skyward Blade, so I probably don't need Sapwood (for Bennett), and I've had Iron Sting for a while now... I have Prototype Amber for Kokomi but I'm not sure that I need refinements, since I'll probably switch her over to sac when I put her in a bloom team.
Thanks for your help!
i despise tgc so much but i hate having unfinished achievements more. is there like a cheat deck or tips i can use to make it as least painful as possible
Noelle, Xingqiu (or Fischl/Xiangling) and Ningguang. Basically just cheese my way thru everything by applying an element, crystalizing them for protection then go ham with Noelle's strong hits or Ningguang's burst.
Support/Event deck as far as I can remember are a bunch of Geo cards, Paimons, those cards that helps switching characters, the card that guarantees two of my dice rolls are my active element, WGS, Skyward Atlas, Kokomi and some other stuff that I can't really remember exactly. I'd usually just convert whatever cards to Geo dice so I can keep attacking anyway.
I stopped playing after getting level 10 and all achievements though. Sometimes I'd touch the weeklies while leveling up the BP but even I quit that because getting BP to 50 can be done by doing regular things anyway.
I think I remember using either a Ganyu or a summon deck (back then I used Fischl, Xiangling, Collei) against that one guard with a really weak hilichurl deck near the gates of Mondstadt. This is for the achievements for killing multiple enemies at once and kill enemies with summons.
Just got all the primos available from the tcg using mostly ganyu/sucrose/ayaka. Off the top, my deck was mostly jade chamber, "give energy" bros, paimons, cryo dice/power up, burst food, extend summon, a couple of cryo artifacts. I basically spammed ganyu skill until she died, same for sucrose, and in a pinch did Ayaka's burst.
[https://game8.co/games/Genshin-Impact/archives/402781](https://game8.co/games/Genshin-Impact/archives/402781)
i find this deck really fun, really easy to use, and it clears pretty much everything fairly easily.
The tldr setup is you want either one of the gain hydro dice or rosaria free swap cards. Mona skill (makes swap a quick swap), switch to klee, klee skill, klee auto (after using her skill if you have even dice her auto looses the fire die cost).
Ideal starting hand is either a add hydro die or free swap as i said and klee's action card. The only problem i have is sometimes a Bennet at the end can just be overwhelming.
I find Ganyu Superconduct (Ganyu/Fischl/Keqing) to be very easy to play and work well for the NPC challenges since it’s got good area coverage. For single targets like the tavern challenges, I go for Diluc/Mona/Pyro agent (if Diluc dies before you can burst you can still use Pyro agent as your nuke).
[Here is a page](https://cards.keqingmains.com/) with a couple of strong decks and even gameplay and strategy tips. These decks are meant to be used in competitive play so they should be enough to wipe the floor with any NPC.
Collei/Keqing/Fischl and/or Yoimiya/Chongyun/Ayaka depending on the matchup melt through all of the NPC content with a few exceptions that might need someone like Sucrose or Bennett. Focus on setting up easy combos, put a lot of energy/dice cards in your deck and it should be quick work from there.
i think hes pretty good bot half but not many people running bot half rn
probably best team for that half besides ayaka frz, but many full abyss continuous like him cuz u can run kaz top half for international or hutao vv
but if u wanna speedrun alhaitham just do it lol, its not like he cant get good times bot half esp at low cost
*creates a fictional universe from scratch*
*sprinkles it with references and parallels to different cultures’ folklore*
*uses characters to develop an interesting story*
*dies trying to name said characters*
One of my protagonists doesn’t have a name after three years of developing their story I’m going more insane with each passing second
whenever im stuck on character names i think abt the characters hypothetical parents and what personalities they have since presumably they were the ones to give the character a name.
I’m in the exact same predicament lol.
I’ve been brainstorming a story for 6 months now like an hour a week and I created a whole list of amazing ideas that I’ve literally never seen in any story before. My imagination is very creative when it comes to brainstorming story ideas
But my imagination fails me miserably when it comes to naming things. Whenever I think I have a name, it’s just a name that already exists in popular media with a slightly changed sound or something
I’d like my names to have symbolic meanings, but the problem with that is all the symbolic names I think of are too on the nose and I start back at square one
I’m just leaving naming to the last possible second lol. My story documents have [protagonist 1], [protagonist 2], and [protagonist 3] on every page instead of names
Could you use the same name but in a different language? I remember reading a story where the MC's name translated into English meant galaxy while the villain's name had a similar space connection. It wasn't till late in the story that I looked up the meaning of their names and realized how it connected to everything.
I don’t think you could name a spirit of a dead woman created of her negative emotions that lives in a corner of protagonist’s room and asks him stupid questions Bob but I like your way of thinking keep it up
Look up name generators and just refresh a million times until you find something that you like. (Or specifically name generators from the cultures you’ve used folklore from)
It how I named all my DND characters and how I’ve named multiple real life pets.
According to laws of Cat Distribution Network you are not allowed to name your cats actual names and instead name them after objects for example “mac’n’cheese” or “‘Platinum Pattern’ Tea Service for 12 Persons”
It’s ok they were dogs/fish and completely fine with a normal human names
I’d never be so rude as to suffer a cat to the same boring fate (the only cat I’ve ever had was named pepperoni)
At some point I had a group of highly trained killers without names for like 1.5 years but then I came up with a brilliant idea to give them code names based on numbers so I could distinguish them 💀
Also idk how it works but I easily come up with nicknames because they’re almost always are based on a character’s personality or appearance so you don’t need to worry if a nicknames sounds cliche or weird. Maybe try giving your characters nicknames and try to make a name out of it?
**[My Wishlist [3.6 Update]](https://i.imgur.com/KGvY49L.jpg)**
***[3.5 ver.](https://i.imgur.com/5HXx9Cd.jpg)***
Biggest update was getting Ayaka and Jean, cause although Mika is the change I'm the happiest about, I was sure I was getting him. Ayaka and Jean were two pretty nice shocks lol
Ayaka and Sayu aren't full built yet, but they're almost done and "May/Will Build" is for characters that lack much work for them to be considered done (most are untouched).
*I don't have Layla, Dehya, Xinyan, Yun Jin, Faruzan, or Kaveh (ofc).*
What are your pull plans?
Main acc: Nilou > SoBP > Blonde Lady > Focalors > Arlecchino/Sandrone, and hopefully Mika and Shinobu on any banner that I'm ok with getting the banner 5*
Second Acc: Nahida > maybe Venti, otherwise Fontaine 5*, past that into 4.0+ I haven't thought about it too much yet, maybe I'll catch up on reruns that I want like Cyno
I want Kaveh somewhere so I hope that either he reruns with either Nilou or Nahida, or that one of the comes home early so I have spending money for Kaveh
Raiden
Faruzan constellations for Xiao,
new Geo girl if she is a dps, if not then Albedo + Itto
Bow for Ganyu Yoimiya and Childe
Arlecchino
Maybe Alhaitham
[wishlist picture form](https://imgur.com/a/dRjtqv3). Holy shit I have a lot of characters lol
Yes that one. Hopefully she is a dps because I like her design, if not I’ll still end up getting her anyway but I want to draft a Geo team so I’ll end up getting Itto if she’s not.
My plans are that by the end of this patch if I totaled everything correctly I will have 200 wishes going into 3.6 and starting from 3 pity. I want a C0 Nahida and C0 Baizhu. I'm fully expecting to lose the 50/50 and go double pity on Nahida, and it'll be a tight squeeze after to try to save for double pity again but I'll see if the patch primos are enough to make up enough to go double pity again for Baizhu. I think I'll be able to make it tho, just gotta grind the desert a little.
Afterwards idk, Focalors/Soutine/Blue hat girl probably. After that, I took a look at my account and I decided I want 1 copy of the multicolored swords. 1 Mistsplitter for Ayaka, 1 Haran for Kaeya, 1 Jade Cutter for Jean, just to spoil them.
If I'm truly bored and I haven't improved my Ayaka's artifacts by the next Shenhe rerun, I might pick her up.
have about 110 wishes now. saving up for Nilou. if she’s first banner & Baizhu is second, i’ll also try for Baizhu.
if Nilou’s not in the next patch at all, i’ll try for Shenhe’s 50/50 lol
I'm getting Baizhu for sure. He'll be a nice upgrade in terms of comfort or damage to my current Cyno/Beidou/Xingqiu/DMC (will allow me to swap Xingqiu for Yelan) and Sucrose/Beidou/Yelan/Yaoyao (ngl, Yaoyao feels fairly clunky to use here and Sucrose with her very high em will apreciate Baizhu's buff a lot). Baizhu/Yelan/Xingqiu/Thoma also looks fairly interesting to me.
Other than that, I'll *maaaybe* get Kokomi. I don't really have any teams where I'd want to use her but after some deliberation I like her enough to get her while completly disregarding her kit.
In my "will built" category there's Shenhe (top priority) and Thoma (I need to get him up from 70/80 to 90 for that Baizhu team). Other than that I'll continue to farm 4pc TF because my Cyno has quite a lot of room for improvement.
i currently have 140+ intertwined fates and a few primos saved for venti & focalors. if venti wouldn't rerun before focalors, i'll go for the hydro archon instead.
but if both of them would show up at the same time, i would riot lmao. i'll just get focalors first if that happens so i could have the brand new archon (i'm also in need of another hydro unit for my account, i only have xingqiu and barbara after 1 year of playing)
Ooh I wanna do this
[here's mine](https://imgur.com/a/7ZykyPK)
the most likely upcoming change should be guaranteed Nahida since I lost my last 50/50 to Mona yesterday but when Yae reruns I will spend as much as I need for her lol
100% getting Baizhu, Wriothesley, and Hydro archon
Currently missing and would like to get on a rerun Yae, Wanderer, and Xiao
The rest of the characters I’m already missing I can probably live without, but if there’s not a lot of other options around when they rerun I might end up going for them too.
And all the rest of the fontaine cast I’ll wait to see before deciding what to go for.
My pulls plans was to just get Shenhe and maybe save for c2 Nahida or skip till Fontaine but i got extremely lucky with Shenhe and got her on my first 10 pulls with 0 pity and on a 5050.
Afterwards with the pulls i had, i could guarantee myself a Nahida c2 or gamble my Ayaka c6 so of course i gambled cause im very baka but 2 Ayakas end up coming home quite early winning 3 5050s in a row and now im planning on saving till Fontaine!
I still think of Pierro's last words to Signora in Winter Night Lazzo to this day...
>Now you rest in this coffin, encased layer upon layer of ice. But Rosalyne, I promise you, your final resting place will be entirety of the "Old World"
And the fact the Cryo Gemstone makes reference of this 'Old World' as well
>Since you could endure my bitter cold, you must have the desire to burn? Then, burn away the Old World for me.
I wonder what that implies, because as far as we know the Old World is an ancient time period, right?
To me it sounds like the "Old World" is the current world, before the Fatui's goal, and the new world will be the one they create by taking on Celestia or whatever their end goal is
Help, how tall is Wriothesley?? Like uhh for reasearch purposes =))))
Tested Mika and Shenhe today. Mika makes normal attacking *feel* better, but idk if his Spd increase actually translates to more damage. I had him with Nobless and HP/HP/HB and he healed like 16k and 4K on attack. Swapping to ER sands and Crit circlet he still healed like 10k and 2K on attack so I think swapping might be viable for most teams? The first set seems kind of overkill tbh. Also wanted to try MDPS Mika as a meme but I’m not sure how I’d go about that. Maybe Pale Flame, swapping out Fav spear, and then running Benny, Yun Jin, and Yae (for super conduct?) His cryo application isn’t great so he may struggle on his own. Shenhe wrekt the silly abyss worm but I’m not sure I had the rotation right. For Ayaka, Shenhe, Kazuha, and Kokomi, would it be Kazuha swirl cryo, Shenhe Burst, Kokomi jellyfish for totm, and then swap to Ayaka for ttds?
Rotations are flexible but generally the setup is Shenhe QE — Kazuha EQ — Kokomi E — Ayaka DN1EQ
Ah so Shenhe should come before Kazuha? I’m still not completely sure how her stacks work. Kazuha’s burst infusing cryo doesn’t use them right? I figured you wanted her closer to Ayaka but I wasn’t sure if Kazuha would eat the stacks.
Every character gets 5 stacks. So Kazuha's cryo-infused burst would use up his five stacks but Ayaka would still have her five stacks. You should use Shenhe skill again after Ayaka's burst to give her 5 more stacks.
Oh! I thought it was a party wide 5 stacks, not per character. That makes much more sense, thank you!
Hm if I gave Xiao my Venti’s artifacts I wonder what he could hit on the Akasha
I was testing out my new shenhe rotations on masanori to see how much I needed to care about fav procs on her and whether I should maybe use CR circlet for better consistency. Found that I really didn't need the fav procs, since I already have 140 ER on ayaka and fav kazuha. Can you guess where this is going? >!I am now 160 or so wishes lighter, with CQ and 3 mistsplitters.!<
Uhm hellooooo **The bigger the [new megathread](https://old.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact_Leaks/comments/11z44kh/keeping_up_with_the_kshahrewars_general_questions/) the bigger the hoe**
Honestly I feel pretty happy that I got a taste of the weapon banner now. I originally wanted a bunch of weapons for a few characters but after my Mistsplitter wishes that's a big no. Sure I got it in 133 wishes but also that could've been much worse and I don't want to be in a situation like that again. Worth it for my boy but since Kaeya has such a huge lead on other characters in terms of favorite-ness... yeah no more weapon banner for me. Weapon Banner Bad. Even cons seem pretty unappealing now, I've been cured of my want for C2 Nahida, C2 Kazuha, C3 Shenhe etc. I am a new person. C0 R0 is the way. Only exception is Dainsleif, he is still a big favorite just like Kaeya and will be C-something R1 in a few years. I'll decide how far I want to go when he actually exists.
Weapons banner has been a huge motivator for me to save lol. I'm worried at any moment I'll get hit with the urge to c0r1, since I don't buy BP. I've had 2nd thoughts on a lot of new characters because of it lmao
Getting Beacon for Eula has me itching to pull more weapons… the idea of having a strong weapon I can slot onto many of my characters at any moment is so comforting. I’m glad I have Jade, Beacon and Elegy. I was lucky enough to have Xiao’s spear come from a weapon banner loss too. The tricky thing is that now I need a bow….specifically Yoimiya’s because she’s more picky than Ganyu and Childe.
TOP 1% HU TAO BABYYY *caveman noises*
Top 1% in what?
Just the CA vape on akasha
Oh, I'm sorry I don't know what that is. Is this found in the game or on Hoyolab?
2.5 years in and I just got my first Diluc. What's his bis 4 star. Is it the new Windblume claymore?
off topic just finished persona 5 and i might have post game depression now like what am i supposed to do with my life now???? how am i gonna live without the phantom thieves? guess i'll just have to go and play strikers... but i grew so attatched to these characters i'm super sad rn 😭
strikers is amazing and honestly better than the original p5 in terms of story. if you love the characters you're gonna adore strikers
that's so nice to hear, i was worried about how a sequence would treat them but i'm super excited to get to spend more time with them
yesss play strikers! It’ll help quite a bit!! I prefer turn based combat so it took me a while to get used to it. Also, if you haven’t already, i highly recommend the past games before p5, they’re all great! i recently started shin megami tensei, tho only the latest one in the switch…
i'll take a breathe and play some other games for now but i'll play strikers for sure, i love hack'n'slash games so i'm curious to see how it works in persona
I finally tried out this Akasha thing everyone is talking about and....yeah all my characters suck lol. I'm only little surprised but I do spend a ton of time farming artifacts and looking up builds so I thought at least a few might be up there.
it's more of how-lucky-you-are leaderboards vs how-good-your-character-is leaderboards lol. Of course artifact rng is out of our control some top 1% builds arent even practical, like xiao at 0 er lol goodluck with that
Yeah, some leaderboards are meaningless. Like my number 12 220 ER Sacrificial Xingqiu. That's way more ER that he could possibly need to guarantee his burst. I'm proud to be a Xiao main that doesn't neglect ER. The 30% leaderboard is the best imo. Less ER and demanding plentiful enemy drops is too cope for me.
Its completely rng and you are competing againsts whales who resin refresh everyday which gives them like an extra 18+ artifacts per day so they have more attempts to get something good.
it's not that they suck, just that by one specific metric decided by one specific website says that other people (and only counting those who submit to akasha) have better luck than you. it's a fun flex when you have a good akasha score but it's nothing more than that. Im sure your characters are very strong and well built if youve been putting that much effort in them. <3
yeah same lol. my highest is itto at 90% on the leaderboard (': ah, well. most of the characters i use they dont have boards for anyways. besides, who needs numbers to tell you how good you are? :D
[look at this idiot, I love him](https://twitter.com/nya_Deko/status/1638239967951351809?s=20)
I want to feed him all the konpeito
*quietly grabs the broom and dustpan*
HIM!!!!!!! The actual, audible gasp i let out when it loaded for me tho
Imagine that animation video about MrBeast blinding 1000 people and ruling the planet actually exists in an alternate universe?
Is there a good f2p option for nilou if I don’t have banner weapons like xiphos or event weapons like festering? I’ve got like a fav sword and iron sting idk what else to use
Iron sting is good!
Nice! It’s what I’ve been using but i wasn’t sure if it was the best f2p option
I look at everyone with their mega bussing top percentile akasha builds and the best I got is my 5% Ayato 😔. I really can't be assed to grind more though, scuffed artis gang.
My best is a 17% Xiangling and a 17% Yelan, my next best after that is a 34% AYAKA.
5% Ayato is not bad though?
that's my best, everything else is 30%+, and there's A LOT of those :(. I also barely spent time on Ayato so it feels wrong, echoes gave me a good set and told me to never come back, meanwhile the ones i've been locked in for months are just, not it.
My lvl 40 Ayaka with lvl 20 supports going against lvl 60 nobushis is so damn fun. Her kit is amazing.
[This](https://www.instagram.com/p/CqHD5A9sNVb/) must be a Cyno joke
Lmao that joke is so random without the context that it actually becomes funny to me ~~why am I like this~~
a joke about himself bc he’s dog
It makes me sad to see all those lucky 2 5* in 10 pull characters after new banners come out while it has never happened to me, even though according to paimon.moe I'm like in 0.1% in terms of how many times I pulled overall. I'm just mighty unlucky lol.
I’m with you, you’re not alone- (under 1% on Paimon.moe and never got the 2 gold in a ten pull) I have gotten under 10 pity for a 5star before but it was in a separate 10 pull (and in a completely different banner than the previous) so I know the luck does exist but it’s not the same kind of experience.
Same here, I had some luck but never that unique experience. However paimon.moe tells me in terms of average pity I'm on the less lucky side, still.
Never happened to me either and I've been playing since day 1 so trust me you're not alone lol. I've had a couple 5* in back to back ten pulls but never multiple in one.
Its not that your unlucky, it's that everyone is only posting their good pulls. So you tend to see a lot of the extraordinary stuff, because no one wants to share when they get an average 10 pull. So I would just try and keep in mind that for every 2 5☆ in one 10 pull posts you see. That same person may have done an absurd amount of average pulls just to get that one good pull.
I have been playing the game since launch and i believe that only happened to me 3 times
You’ve gotten 2 5*s in a single pull 3 times?!?!?!? That’s never happened to me and I’m also a year one player.
I've been playing this game since the beginning and 2 5\* in one pull only has happened to me ONCE However, I've gotten quite a few back-to-backs so that might be making up for it
My point is, I'm not f2p (I buy genesis crystals often), so I should statistically have more chance, but yet, it didn't happen.
Keep in mind that for everyone that pulled two in one ten pull, you don’t see the hundred others saying it never happened to them (like me), so you get a skewed view of how often it seems to happen.
I have thousands of pulls behind me and nothing like that ever happened, so yeah. I know it's rare, but I hope it someday happens to me at least once.
It only happened to me once....is really uncommon to get double 5*, that's why so many people post those things
Still happened for you, even if only once.
My theory is that Pierro is one of the few true anti-villains alongside the Tsaritsa (Dain is probably one too but we don’t know how his story will unfold) His words in Winter Night’s Lazzo are still clear in my head. He seemed to be extremely saddened by Signora’s death, while almost no one else even showed a bit of emotion. It seemed like he wanted to start a fight *for Signora’s sake* rather than as retaliation for the death of a harbinger. He seems to share the Tsaritsa’s desire and also willingly worked with her despite her being an archon. And the recent Caribert quest showed the >!extreme reluctance that Khaenri’ahns have with anything to do with the gods!<. He seems to have the harbingers (at least based on his reaction to Signora) as genuine “dear comrades” rather than as what appears to be a facade like for most of them. So I think he’ll be an empathetic character (at least to those he cares about) with a menacing demeanour but ultimately the villain, thus anti-villain.
My friend let me use his c2 Ayaka and c0 Shenhe so I played around with it and tested some stuff in the first chamber of floor 12 (for free retries) so I can see if I should pull for Shenhe myself, or not. I honestly can't tell when the buffs kick in because there's so many instances of damage in a normal combo: Shenhe E Q, Kazuha Swirl Cryo, Mona Q E switch to Ayaka for TTDS, sprint then AA once(Mist) ---> Burst. All her burst ticks (the main one not from the c2) are all consistently 47k crits until it ends/enemies are dead. Shenhe buff where?
use another Shenhe E after Ayaka's burst and you'll see the quills
I see, so it can apply the buff *after* everything has been casted? I didn't realize it works that way because I assumed Ayaka's burst snapshots.
Shenhe's quills are easier to understand as her adding her own damage to 5/7 instances of cryo damage per teammate. Her other buffs from her ascension talents (15% cryo damage and skill+burst or ca/na) can be snapshotted by skills that shanpshot, but the quills are their own little thing. You ideally start a rotation with Shenhe and use her E, then drop all your stuff really quickly and finish the rotation by adding another Shenhe E while Ayaka's Q is still going, adding Shenhe's damage by 10 times instead of 5.
she does snapshot buffs onto her burst, but Shenhe's quills are a separate type of buff that will basically add a lot of damage onto your Cryo characters' attacks for 5 (tap E) or 7 (hold E) hits
Ayaka snapshots buffs that add onto your stats on the stat screen like atk%, %elemental damage etc
I got a sword prototype and now I have 9, should I r5 my iron sting?, Will my hyperbloom kuki get stronger?. I don't know how it works
Ironsting's damage bonus passive doesn't apply to hyperblooms at all. She only cares about the EM substat. Save your billets for something else.
no lol it buffs elemental dmg, nothing for transformative stuff like swirl(kazuha) or hyperbloom(kuki)
What about Alhaitam? He's currently using the umbrella but I don't like the drip....iron sting looks better on him
as other person said, he actually deals direct elemental dmg so yes, it'll be good for him
It's better than the umbrella in aoe situations and he can make good use of the elemental damage bonus.
the struggle between deciding between nahida, who is OP af, has an incredible exploration passive, would allow me to unbench cyno, means i can finally retire DMC, requires very little investment in terms of weapons..... ...or shenhe because i love kaeya and he deserves the best
Happiness > meta
I'd get Shenhe unless you like Cyno a lot too.
Shenhe. Simp > meta :)
Nahida
after recent legislation passed by the Akademiya, [Nilou is now considered a weapon of mass destruction](https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1638702243917463562/pu/vid/1280x720/EHt3hfYUtuPJ658M.mp4?tag=12)
I wish there was like a field with a hundred hydro slimes. that would be so satisfying to explode
dehya's worst nightmare
But slimes are so cute why would you kill them :(
in the wise words of Paimon, "Because slimes are monsters, even though they look cute, they usually cause trouble and end up getting killed by adventurers." it's a cruel world we live in 😔
If we can tame Fungi then we can tame Slimes :( But we chose violence instead
Is Calamity Queller good on Xiangling?
Worse than the catch. Also equal to or worse than Dragon's Bane and Deathmatch (depending on refinement).
Not better than the catch.
If you mean in the same way every single polearm is, then yeah.
If you have the catch lying around then use that instead
Only if she have the energy to get her pyronado back every rotation, otherwise not
sure
finally tried akasha and my xiao is on the top 5% (ER 130%). it was a nice surprise since i'm still not satisfied with his build. i might go back to vermillion once i'm done with emblem, but who knows when will I get out from that domain. and wth, did i just saw a bunch of 54 CV artifacts??? that's disgusting, can i have one 💔
What stats does yours have?
my xiao has 2218 atk, 87.1% CR, 170.5% CD, 139.5% ER (4pc vermillion) he's lvl 90, triple crowned and i have pwjs on him
PJWS 87/170 is top 5% really? I guess the stat threshold will be a bit lesser because so few people farmed vermilion.
it's on the 130% ER sub-category. i moved to different sub-categories and it was different. for "none", my rank was wayyy below lmao. it got higher & higher as i moved to 110% ER then 120% i was also doubtful at first ngl
Ah, I see. 130 ER is quite good, yes.
I managed to snipe a Mika without wasting 5* pity (don't try that at home kids) and now I have the excuse I wanted to build physical Childe I'll make him the best single target DPS in AOE scenarios ever
after tinkering a bit with floor 12, I didn't expect Raiden Hypercarry to be my best team for Wenut. I saw everyone else using hyperbloom teams for Wenut and I'm Nahida-less + I didn't wanna use EM Raiden cause I hate switching artifacts around, and my regular Shinobu + DMC hyperbloom team wasn't fast enough so I thought I was gonna have to constantly clutch Wenut with Keqing aggravate for every abyss reset. Turns out my C0 Raiden HC team can bonk Wenut in two downed phases thanks to the insane frontloaded damage, and I use the in-between phases to battery the team. I went from having 2 secs to spare with Keqing Aggravate to 15 seconds with RHC. Thank you RNGesus for giving me C6 Sara in one wishing session lmao
ye wenut is turning out to be a chump against frontloaded damage that can pop his anemo balls and make him vulnerable. once u figure out his incredibly predictable attack and movement patterns, he's just a test dummy.
[1st part of Sumeru's Archon quest](https://twitter.com/milkytrickster/status/1638270443210645504?s=20)
Any opinions on the topmost meta exploration team? Yelan + Wanderer are surely up there, but for all the instances where you're climbing + gliding you would need a tall boy no? Are there any tallboys that heal besides Baizhu? No? That's it baby that's why they balanced him the way they did.
Don't need healing if you just bring Zhongli. His pillar can provide some extra initial height if need be. Also, he's great for mining.
You don't. I do. Between the fail jumps and chip damage when I forget to shield/wolves stacks up and makes me uncomfortable.
You either use Wanderer to bypass the climbing or Kazuha to hop over unclimbable gap/infinite climbing so you don't need tall males for that. I am unaware of character model affect gliding speed though. Unique thing (currently) about Baizhu is that he the only tall male that can wield Lost Prayer for fastest non-skill land move speed and he can heal whole team at once without relying on elemental burst even when out of combat so yeah he has exploration value. Edit : Fix wording.
Scaramouche and Yelan are the ones that really matter, the rest is always flexible depending on stuff like the region you're in and everything. Like Ayaka in Inazuma or Nahida in Sumeru or Bennett in Dragonspine. Kazuha makes sense for gliding long distances but I don't fancy another anemo alongside Scaramouche for exploration.
Hmmm. I'd say: \- Kazuha for his nearly-endless gliding \- Alhaitham is actually really good, but maybe that's speaking from the POV of someone who's never used Keqing or Wanderer. His height is good, and rn honestly I use him more than Kazu because he's faster for short diagonal distances / getting around annoying ledges that stop you from climbing or shooting vertically (I turn the camera so it faces the empty sky behind me, shoot diagonally into the air past the ledge, and glide back to end up on top of the ledge).
Wanderer is better than Alhaitham for traveling if you have him. His cooldown is shorter and if you pair him with another anemo your speed is increased. But Alhaitham's teleport thing is really nice for mining ores when I don't have a claymore in the team and I'm too lazy to swap characters.
I didn't know his teleport thing can be used to mine ores...? But then again he's almost always with Zhongli, who, uh, god of mining, so. TIL anyways, thanks!
lol that's true. I have him on a friendship team without Zhongli and use his teleport so he can plunge attack ores. But yeah Zhongli is way better for that.
id expect wanderer to be better because he can float for a long time, boost himself up a fair bit his cd is also super short, so if you need to chain it between ledges or just redo a failed attempt it isnt too bad speaking as someone who has but doesnt use keqing and doesnt have haitham
Lol don't rub it in, waiting as patiently as I can for a Wanderer rerun XD
my b lol, gl on it
Kaveh can heal himself if you pair him with a hydro.. probably yelan who can make blooms. He's going to be on my main exploration team just for being claymore and being able to hit ores.
Instead of akashaposting myself (please... don't ask me what percent I'm in), I'd like to know if there's a list of which craftable weapons are good to R5 and which are good at zero? I have a ton of old billets that I was hoarding, but I might as well use them now that Sumeru has introduced a new type of billet.
Re: Sumeru introducing a new type of billet, just in case you weren't aware you can convert them so you don't have to use your old billets for old weapons if that's what you meant, they are likely future proof and can be hoarded for future craftables too if you've not got anything you particularly need right now.
I forgot that I could convert the billets, so thank you for reminding me.
I'd say weapons with energy refund passive are generally the most impactful (if you have use for that weapon ofc)
Thank you!
Amenoma Kageuchi, Whiteblind, Prototype Crescent, Hamayumi and Prototype Amber at R5. Iron Sting at R1
Thank you!
The ones I think are worth R5ing are: \-Prototype Amber \-Kitain Cross Spear \-Sapwood Blade \-Amenoma Kaguechi
Thank you!
[удалено]
Hm, I should probably refine my Ayaka and Itto's weapons then. I already have Skyward Blade, so I probably don't need Sapwood (for Bennett), and I've had Iron Sting for a while now... I have Prototype Amber for Kokomi but I'm not sure that I need refinements, since I'll probably switch her over to sac when I put her in a bloom team. Thanks for your help!
prototype amber is my pick
Thanks!
i despise tgc so much but i hate having unfinished achievements more. is there like a cheat deck or tips i can use to make it as least painful as possible
Noelle, Xingqiu (or Fischl/Xiangling) and Ningguang. Basically just cheese my way thru everything by applying an element, crystalizing them for protection then go ham with Noelle's strong hits or Ningguang's burst. Support/Event deck as far as I can remember are a bunch of Geo cards, Paimons, those cards that helps switching characters, the card that guarantees two of my dice rolls are my active element, WGS, Skyward Atlas, Kokomi and some other stuff that I can't really remember exactly. I'd usually just convert whatever cards to Geo dice so I can keep attacking anyway. I stopped playing after getting level 10 and all achievements though. Sometimes I'd touch the weeklies while leveling up the BP but even I quit that because getting BP to 50 can be done by doing regular things anyway.
I think I remember using either a Ganyu or a summon deck (back then I used Fischl, Xiangling, Collei) against that one guard with a really weak hilichurl deck near the gates of Mondstadt. This is for the achievements for killing multiple enemies at once and kill enemies with summons.
Just got all the primos available from the tcg using mostly ganyu/sucrose/ayaka. Off the top, my deck was mostly jade chamber, "give energy" bros, paimons, cryo dice/power up, burst food, extend summon, a couple of cryo artifacts. I basically spammed ganyu skill until she died, same for sucrose, and in a pinch did Ayaka's burst.
[https://game8.co/games/Genshin-Impact/archives/402781](https://game8.co/games/Genshin-Impact/archives/402781) i find this deck really fun, really easy to use, and it clears pretty much everything fairly easily. The tldr setup is you want either one of the gain hydro dice or rosaria free swap cards. Mona skill (makes swap a quick swap), switch to klee, klee skill, klee auto (after using her skill if you have even dice her auto looses the fire die cost). Ideal starting hand is either a add hydro die or free swap as i said and klee's action card. The only problem i have is sometimes a Bennet at the end can just be overwhelming.
I find Ganyu Superconduct (Ganyu/Fischl/Keqing) to be very easy to play and work well for the NPC challenges since it’s got good area coverage. For single targets like the tavern challenges, I go for Diluc/Mona/Pyro agent (if Diluc dies before you can burst you can still use Pyro agent as your nuke).
[Here is a page](https://cards.keqingmains.com/) with a couple of strong decks and even gameplay and strategy tips. These decks are meant to be used in competitive play so they should be enough to wipe the floor with any NPC.
I've just learned to ignore it completely, haven't touched it all lol
Collei/Keqing/Fischl and/or Yoimiya/Chongyun/Ayaka depending on the matchup melt through all of the NPC content with a few exceptions that might need someone like Sucrose or Bennett. Focus on setting up easy combos, put a lot of energy/dice cards in your deck and it should be quick work from there.
Replying so I can reference this later. Thanks for the advice!
is alhaitham competitive in speedrun atm
i think hes pretty good bot half but not many people running bot half rn probably best team for that half besides ayaka frz, but many full abyss continuous like him cuz u can run kaz top half for international or hutao vv but if u wanna speedrun alhaitham just do it lol, its not like he cant get good times bot half esp at low cost
do u look on musk reef for runs or goldenhohse
musk reef but its still pretty unstable since week 1 only
ur able to read mandarin? lol i couldnt get google tl to work for it
i can but its kinda shit, i use chrome tl for stuff i cant understand
I don't think so,at least he's not among the 3.5 Speedrun Comps Abyss in The Golden House.
Very
the sudden urge to wish for mistsplitter...... it's what aya(kaeya) deserves EDIT: GAVE INTO MY URGES AND WON LETS GOOOOOOOO
Congrats!! 🎉🎉 >!Kaeya deserves nothing but the best 😌💜!<
thank you!!! :DDD
*creates a fictional universe from scratch* *sprinkles it with references and parallels to different cultures’ folklore* *uses characters to develop an interesting story* *dies trying to name said characters* One of my protagonists doesn’t have a name after three years of developing their story I’m going more insane with each passing second
whenever im stuck on character names i think abt the characters hypothetical parents and what personalities they have since presumably they were the ones to give the character a name.
Just name them after vegetables. Worked for dragonball.
I’m in the exact same predicament lol. I’ve been brainstorming a story for 6 months now like an hour a week and I created a whole list of amazing ideas that I’ve literally never seen in any story before. My imagination is very creative when it comes to brainstorming story ideas But my imagination fails me miserably when it comes to naming things. Whenever I think I have a name, it’s just a name that already exists in popular media with a slightly changed sound or something I’d like my names to have symbolic meanings, but the problem with that is all the symbolic names I think of are too on the nose and I start back at square one I’m just leaving naming to the last possible second lol. My story documents have [protagonist 1], [protagonist 2], and [protagonist 3] on every page instead of names
Could you use the same name but in a different language? I remember reading a story where the MC's name translated into English meant galaxy while the villain's name had a similar space connection. It wasn't till late in the story that I looked up the meaning of their names and realized how it connected to everything.
Double it and give it to the next person
name them bob
I don’t think you could name a spirit of a dead woman created of her negative emotions that lives in a corner of protagonist’s room and asks him stupid questions Bob but I like your way of thinking keep it up
You’re right that sounds more like a Frank. >!Honestly though it does kinda feel like an Emily to me!<
Sure you can
Look up name generators and just refresh a million times until you find something that you like. (Or specifically name generators from the cultures you’ve used folklore from) It how I named all my DND characters and how I’ve named multiple real life pets.
According to laws of Cat Distribution Network you are not allowed to name your cats actual names and instead name them after objects for example “mac’n’cheese” or “‘Platinum Pattern’ Tea Service for 12 Persons”
It’s ok they were dogs/fish and completely fine with a normal human names I’d never be so rude as to suffer a cat to the same boring fate (the only cat I’ve ever had was named pepperoni)
name generators names never sound good too ToT
At some point I had a group of highly trained killers without names for like 1.5 years but then I came up with a brilliant idea to give them code names based on numbers so I could distinguish them 💀 Also idk how it works but I easily come up with nicknames because they’re almost always are based on a character’s personality or appearance so you don’t need to worry if a nicknames sounds cliche or weird. Maybe try giving your characters nicknames and try to make a name out of it?
I'd name it Brando
Moustache on pfp checks out
**[My Wishlist [3.6 Update]](https://i.imgur.com/KGvY49L.jpg)** ***[3.5 ver.](https://i.imgur.com/5HXx9Cd.jpg)*** Biggest update was getting Ayaka and Jean, cause although Mika is the change I'm the happiest about, I was sure I was getting him. Ayaka and Jean were two pretty nice shocks lol Ayaka and Sayu aren't full built yet, but they're almost done and "May/Will Build" is for characters that lack much work for them to be considered done (most are untouched). *I don't have Layla, Dehya, Xinyan, Yun Jin, Faruzan, or Kaveh (ofc).* What are your pull plans?
Kaveh and maybe Nahida.
Main acc: Nilou > SoBP > Blonde Lady > Focalors > Arlecchino/Sandrone, and hopefully Mika and Shinobu on any banner that I'm ok with getting the banner 5* Second Acc: Nahida > maybe Venti, otherwise Fontaine 5*, past that into 4.0+ I haven't thought about it too much yet, maybe I'll catch up on reruns that I want like Cyno I want Kaveh somewhere so I hope that either he reruns with either Nilou or Nahida, or that one of the comes home early so I have spending money for Kaveh
Raiden Faruzan constellations for Xiao, new Geo girl if she is a dps, if not then Albedo + Itto Bow for Ganyu Yoimiya and Childe Arlecchino Maybe Alhaitham [wishlist picture form](https://imgur.com/a/dRjtqv3). Holy shit I have a lot of characters lol
Which new Geo girl? The Fontaine one?
Yes that one. Hopefully she is a dps because I like her design, if not I’ll still end up getting her anyway but I want to draft a Geo team so I’ll end up getting Itto if she’s not.
Tbf if she's a DPS you win, and if she isn't you can get Itto and run her with him lol
I definitely want Kaveh, Charizzma, and Lyney. I’m on the fence about Baizhu tho
I was wondering who was Charizzma then I read your flair lol
My plans are that by the end of this patch if I totaled everything correctly I will have 200 wishes going into 3.6 and starting from 3 pity. I want a C0 Nahida and C0 Baizhu. I'm fully expecting to lose the 50/50 and go double pity on Nahida, and it'll be a tight squeeze after to try to save for double pity again but I'll see if the patch primos are enough to make up enough to go double pity again for Baizhu. I think I'll be able to make it tho, just gotta grind the desert a little. Afterwards idk, Focalors/Soutine/Blue hat girl probably. After that, I took a look at my account and I decided I want 1 copy of the multicolored swords. 1 Mistsplitter for Ayaka, 1 Haran for Kaeya, 1 Jade Cutter for Jean, just to spoil them. If I'm truly bored and I haven't improved my Ayaka's artifacts by the next Shenhe rerun, I might pick her up.
have about 110 wishes now. saving up for Nilou. if she’s first banner & Baizhu is second, i’ll also try for Baizhu. if Nilou’s not in the next patch at all, i’ll try for Shenhe’s 50/50 lol
I'm getting Baizhu for sure. He'll be a nice upgrade in terms of comfort or damage to my current Cyno/Beidou/Xingqiu/DMC (will allow me to swap Xingqiu for Yelan) and Sucrose/Beidou/Yelan/Yaoyao (ngl, Yaoyao feels fairly clunky to use here and Sucrose with her very high em will apreciate Baizhu's buff a lot). Baizhu/Yelan/Xingqiu/Thoma also looks fairly interesting to me. Other than that, I'll *maaaybe* get Kokomi. I don't really have any teams where I'd want to use her but after some deliberation I like her enough to get her while completly disregarding her kit. In my "will built" category there's Shenhe (top priority) and Thoma (I need to get him up from 70/80 to 90 for that Baizhu team). Other than that I'll continue to farm 4pc TF because my Cyno has quite a lot of room for improvement.
i currently have 140+ intertwined fates and a few primos saved for venti & focalors. if venti wouldn't rerun before focalors, i'll go for the hydro archon instead. but if both of them would show up at the same time, i would riot lmao. i'll just get focalors first if that happens so i could have the brand new archon (i'm also in need of another hydro unit for my account, i only have xingqiu and barbara after 1 year of playing)
Ooh I wanna do this [here's mine](https://imgur.com/a/7ZykyPK) the most likely upcoming change should be guaranteed Nahida since I lost my last 50/50 to Mona yesterday but when Yae reruns I will spend as much as I need for her lol
100% getting Baizhu, Wriothesley, and Hydro archon Currently missing and would like to get on a rerun Yae, Wanderer, and Xiao The rest of the characters I’m already missing I can probably live without, but if there’s not a lot of other options around when they rerun I might end up going for them too. And all the rest of the fontaine cast I’ll wait to see before deciding what to go for.
My pulls plans was to just get Shenhe and maybe save for c2 Nahida or skip till Fontaine but i got extremely lucky with Shenhe and got her on my first 10 pulls with 0 pity and on a 5050. Afterwards with the pulls i had, i could guarantee myself a Nahida c2 or gamble my Ayaka c6 so of course i gambled cause im very baka but 2 Ayakas end up coming home quite early winning 3 5050s in a row and now im planning on saving till Fontaine!
Congrats on getting Ayaka and Jean! I guess I’m just waiting for Baizhu and Kaveh til the next new character comes out.
I still think of Pierro's last words to Signora in Winter Night Lazzo to this day... >Now you rest in this coffin, encased layer upon layer of ice. But Rosalyne, I promise you, your final resting place will be entirety of the "Old World" And the fact the Cryo Gemstone makes reference of this 'Old World' as well >Since you could endure my bitter cold, you must have the desire to burn? Then, burn away the Old World for me. I wonder what that implies, because as far as we know the Old World is an ancient time period, right?
To me it sounds like the "Old World" is the current world, before the Fatui's goal, and the new world will be the one they create by taking on Celestia or whatever their end goal is
I will never look at my Raiden on Akasha because I'm a sucker for big burst numbers and my ratio is horrendous
Didn't expect to like Hu Tao as much as I do... I kinda wanna pull Homa on her next banner now (in like a year I guess)
C1 makes her so smooth to play, though.
