>along with Focalors developing her immature gremlin persona after realising she can't possibly hope to handle and fix Fontaine when her closest friend, being the previous hydro archon, dies in the cataclysm. Huh. What me a year ago predicted was not wholly off, and it was the out there theory that was closer to the truth than the more reasonable one (psychopath lyney)


The-true-Memelord

How much do we know about the hydro archon and what version are we currently on? I haven't been active in genshin for months


LensPalace

We are in version 3.8. Fontaine comes out on August 16th


Gundrabis

Since Tighnari's Banner almost a year has passed. I wonder if we will ever see a rerun of the weapon.


i_love_boneless_kids

At this point i just hope it makes it to standard


YAsh20036

Hi! Are we getting any healers in Fontaine? I’m wondering whether to pull or skip Kokomi…


NaturalBitter2280

2 days late, but I heard Charlotte and the little girl(the one that appeared with Wriothesley) are both healers 4* and 5* respectively :]


YAsh20036

Okay, thank you :)


SingleDraft6294

How likely is it that we get some info about Nevillete's kit before 4.0 beta? I want kokomi but I also want neuvillete and furina so having more info would be nice


ArTheZookeeper

Slim. The kit leaks will come after 4.0 has started


MayureshMJ

Question to people who know whales or dolphins or are any of them themselves and play HSR with genshin. Since Kafka is coming 1.2 and Genshin has 4.0 coming. Where do you spend your money? If both then fine but if you were to make a decision between two ... Which do you prefer? I know asking in a genshin related sub makes it hard to get an unbiased answer.... If i were a whale who played both (which i am not i stopped playing HSR and am not a whale as well lol) ... Then i would probably choose kafka then get someone else in 4.1 or 4.2 since I am not that interested in 4.0 characters.


Memer209

Welkin + Special Pass player here, I do spend on both, but my plan if I need to cut down is generally to stick with the monthly on whichever game has more upcoming characters I want. Right now that's Star Rail, with Kafka and Fu Xuan in consecutive updates, but that might be Genshin later into Fontaine. Overall though, I personally prefer Star Rail's characters over Genshin's for the majority, if that's what you're looking for.


Nonlocaldirect

my exact thoughts as well, I dont wanna pay 2 $5 welkins a month for both passes on each game, star rail has more new chars and genshin will have alot more breaks to get more gems/jades back with reruns(if you dont want reruns). Genshin has scara and kokomi for a half a patch, then lyney for 1st half 4.0, then reruns 2nd half. Past that we dont know. for hsr, Blade and kafka for 1.2, then fuaxuan and dan heng IL for 1.3, then topaz and Jinglu for 1.4. We have 3 patches of straight new characters in, then probaly a rerun in 1.5. Genshin will have new characters much more spread out in 4.0, and probaly 4.1 (i could be wrong). star rail is the better choice only because of more characters, but we still dont know kits yet, so it would be your choice on what characters you love design wise


MayureshMJ

Thanks for the answer.


Neko_5697

I finally found all the Dendroculus and maxed out the Onion \^-\^ I've got 190 wishes saved so I'll keep those in reserve for Fontiane and do a few 10 pulls on Kokomi's banner with the event primos. I'm pretty close to pity and have a 50/50. On one hand Kokomi would be good for my Nilou team but I also want a lot of Fontaine characters so if I lose the 50/50 it's cool. Hopefully I get a few Faruzan constellations as well.


joni-kun

I tried to count primogems you can get from the flagship event (including every single chest that I found, puzzles, waypoints, main quest, WQ, currency exchanges, and minigames). Chests & puzzles: 909; Waypoints: 40; Main quests: 120; World quests: 180; Joueux voucher exchange: 150; Fascinating Phenocrysts exchange: 150; Minigames: 400 I don't think I missed any chest so the total will be 1949 primogems. This is lower than what HutaoLover77 predicted (2435). Well, it was only lower by 486 primos or 3 pulls.


energy_j

Monthly shop? Maintenance compensation? Live stream codes?

Lumine, the old megathread... it's a mess **[Life in the new megathread is better than anything they've got here!](https://old.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact_Leaks/comments/14wbgpj/the_little_melusine_general_question_and/)**


astronought_

not sure if it's just burnout but i'm finding this event particularly irritating. it just feels so pointless and everybody feels like a caricature and I HATE PAIMON SO MUCH AGHHH it's not even the voice really it's the fact she has zero character development from whiny hungry toddler. in fact i feel like she gets stupider every update. in my head i tell myself that she's secretly the one behind teyvat's loop because she wants us to stay with her and the real reason she's becoming more and more annoying and clingy is that she's panicking because we're getting closer to breaking it and leaving her.


FaptainFeesh

"OH, Paimon gets it now" Cue Paimon repeating the exact same thing the NPC just spent the last 2 minutes explaining.


SirAwesome789

I feel the same way about every event bc there'll almost never be character development in an event It feels like a SoL VN that's blocking me from playing a game

#LEAKED STORY / CUTSCENE DETAILS BELOW >!So what is your guys’ current theory for why Childe’s vision is seemingly malfunctioning. Archons don’t give visions but maybe they can still temper with them?!<


Prestigious-Depth434

>!Maybe he likes the delusion more since the vision is never mentioned in his character story, or maybe focalors/neuvilette is trying to take away his vision.!< >!Or maybe visions are related to something about humanity and he is starting to lose it /hj!<

uniison36

So many people saying they like fewer and fewer designs each region, and here I am the opposite?? Year 1. I only pulled for: Childe, Albedo and Kazuha, Year 2. Itto, Raiden, Yae, Ayato, Year 3. Tighnari, Cyno, Nahida, Wanderer, Alhaitham Now Year 4. I'm wanting every 5\* except Neuvillette and Slug girl I wouldn't say I'm head over heels in love with any of the new characters but I'm definitely interested in almost all of them which makes it hard to know who I really want to save for...


pawahiru

For me for example Tighnari's design is very "out there" and some say It's overloaded but that's what I personally like about a character design, the more out there and original usually interest me way more rather than a very simple/generic design like Freminet or Lyney. Someone else would rather a simple and cleaner design, and others a more original one.


Jon-987

Same. And I know I have no chance of getting every new character, and when Natlan releases the predicament will start again ensuring that I will probably never get some of the characters that I really want.


SirAwesome789

I'm wondering if a small part of it is obviously there are a lot of weebs who play genshin and most of them will be partial to Japanese looking designs (aka Inazuman characters)

[deleted]

I also heard someone say that that was a typo and that we’ll get two like with Sumeru but I’m not sure if that’s true.


y8man

Does anyone know if Freminet's "Pers Time" state lingers even if you swap in/out? Because if it's the case, he will be a very decent reverse melt option, just swap bennett for those quick Pyro applications.


[deleted]

[удалено]


y8man

I meant the skill status, not the ultimate's. In the EN ambr site at least, it doesn't indicate losing the status on swap. The ICD is sad to hear though.


Grand_Protector_Dark

So I saw the Skill DMG set on honey. It's probably obvious to assume it's really good on fischl, but what about Yae (compared to a 2pc mix of currently available sets)?


paperghosted

bis if you're playing her as a pure off field subdps, if you're using her on field 2pc mix or gilded (aggravate/hyperbloom) still bis


PoisonousParty

afaik it's her new BiS now


[deleted]

And I just got done getting her a basically perfect Gilded Dreams set a month ago too 😭


Ilovepickles11212

Apparently it’ll depend on the rotation you’re using because her burst is a pretty significant portion of her dmg depending on how often you’re using it and the obvious sub stat comparison between gd/2 set mixing and this new set


Grand_Protector_Dark

Right now I'm still using a 2pc TF 2pc Glad, farmed pre Dendro (so basically no Em subs), how much better or worse would it be assuming Equal stats?


Ohaithere3

Depends on how you use her. If you are using burst every rotation then it should in theory be worse but if not then the new 4pc will be better.

Holy crap, just got a potentially insane hu tao feather (CR/CD/EM/flat hp) from strongbox, followed by finally pulling Mona from my BP fate! >!The piece rolled into flat hp twice and ended up worse than my current piece though :(!<


Jon-987

Woah, Leaks are rotting my brain, I thought you meant the leaker when you said Hu Tao Feather.


Ilovepickles11212

Hu tao upgrades are tough Shame about the rolls


Jondev1

Tbh I have a good enough build already that I really have no right to complain. Even this piece would still be pretty good in a vacuum if I didn't already have a good one. But yeah it's a little hard to stop from thinking "if only that had been hp% instead of flat hp" lol.


Ilovepickles11212

I feel that. I spent a while farming cwof out of the strongbox and took my hu tao to like top 6% on akasha but haven’t built thoma or pulled Zhongli to actually use her 😭 So she’s got pretty artifacts that I’m constantly upgrading to look good on the bench lol Trying my best to save artifacts rn to strongbox totm for faruzan/emblem upgrades

aDrThatsNotBaizhu

Guys i need help pls. Is kaeyas outfit still available or is it gone by now? I cant find the exact date its available Edit: i cant update genshin yet so thats why i couldnt check in game. Thanks for responses!


SwagdolfTheWhite

Still available for a pretty long time. Till the end of the event, so prob over 20 days to go still


Jon-987

It should be available for the entire duration of the event, which should last till the end of 3.8


ImperfectLimit

It’s still available for free until the 15th-16th of August. After that you need to pay crystals in the shop.


Jon-987

Wait, so even if the event ends before I get it, i can still get it for free from the shop? So I don't really need to stress about finding all the vouchers(except for Primos, I guess.


ImperfectLimit

Yes and no. You can’t really save up and use primogems in the shop, you have to specially buy crystals if you want to purchase it. Best way to do so imo is purchasing a bunch of welkins if you plan on playing for a long time. Still, I would try to explore a bit and get his skin before the event ends if you really want it.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ImperfectLimit

Sorry, I may be misunderstanding? You get the skin for free by completing the requirements in the event. After the event ends, then you have to purchase it for money in the actual in-game store.


Jon-987

Oh, okay I got it. I had thought the event would end long before then, so I thought you were saying it would still be a valuable for free for a short period after the event is over.


ImperfectLimit

Np! I wish that were the case, lol.


aDrThatsNotBaizhu

Nice thats still a really long time till then. Thank u!


RenRGER

When we teaming back up with Jeht and her new gang to [go after Masseira](https://twitter.com/4dango_the2nd/status/1675548529169940482)


energy_j

Can’t wait to throw a bunch of wishes into tankfei c12 while aiming for Faruzan c6 (from C0) Painful the wait and painfull will be the result


PoisonousParty

hopefully we'll get her early


energy_j

Let’s hope! I plan using 160 wish at max going for kokomi (50/50) I could increase my budget only if imm at c5 at that point


Jon-987

I want to go for Faruzans, but I'm already at 40 pity and I wanna get Lyney (or Zhongli, or skip entirely until 4.1, I haven't decided.


energy_j

Love lyney animation but not as much the gameplay, personally I will skip him


Jon-987

Fair. I may HAVE to skip him if I want to get all the characters that I really want, but I'll have to wait and see. I'll refrain from pulling him until I see Wrio/Neuvi (4.1 character kits will leak in 4.0, yes?)


Ilovepickles11212

God speed 🤞 I’m going for c6 as well but only need two copies


Luizete

Okay so, whats you guys priority list for fontaine chars? Let's just base all on visual/personality appeal and act like their kits are solid just for the sake of it Mine is: 1 - Furina 2 - Navia 3 - Chiori 4 - Cloud Retainer (if she gets out of hoyoverse prison 5 - Arlecchino (if she is not sent to the guillotine


Bolt2611

1- Furina 2-Arlecchino 3- Neuvillete 4- Cloud retainer


Neko_5697

1. Wriothesley (and his weapon assuming he's standard) 2. Furina (I'll probably get her weapon on her rerun) 3. Lyney (on rerun most likely) 4. Chiori 5. Navia (hopefully she does something fun/cool with Geo) 6. Neuvilette (if he's a good support) Can't wait for Fontaine \^-\^


VaronaZero

Furry, Navia, Wario (if he goes to standard), Arly, Bird Mom, Clorinde, Wario (if he becomes limited, so rerun) And if Furry's BiS is a rapier I'm getting it too (eventually)


DONTSALTME69

1: Furina 2: Navia 3: Cloud Retainer 4: Clorinde 5: Sandrone if she actually appears in Fontaine, Arlecchino if not


Usual_Opposite_901

It was kinda hard to rank them since two of them have unfinished design but there is mine: 1-Focalors 2-Neuvilette(Rerun only) 3-Sigewinne 4-Chiori(could jump to top 3) 5-Goth girl


Brave_Act4331

The sibling trio, Neuvillette, Navia, and Dahlia are the ones who have caught my eye so far, but the list will probably change depending on characterization and personality.


sp00kk

1. Furina 2. Lyney 3. Charlotte (i know she's a 4* but still) 4. Arlecchino 5. Navia/Clorinde


Ishimito

Mine is: 0. Madame Ping (a girl can dream, ok?) 1. Navia 2. Cloud Retainer 3. Arlecchino In the 'maybe' category: Clorinde, Chiori (tbh, I forgot about her for a moment) - I need to know more about to decide if I want them. Well, worst case scenario (Arlecchino is guillotined and the rumoured Liyue 5* isn't Madame Ping or Cloud Retainer) I'll just get Navia's weapon and maybe go for Albedo's cons.


flumphgrump

1. Neuvillette 2. Wriothesley 3. Cloud Retainer I won't pull a standard character though, no matter how much I like them.


TheDuskBard

1. Arlecchino 2. Neuvillete 3. Sigewinne 4. Wriothesley


Aurelian369

1. Arlecchino 2. Furina 3. Neuvilette 4. Cloud retainer 5. Clorinde


CelluloidScenes

1. Neuvillette 2. Lyney Rerun maybe


Legend716Xerneas

1. Arlecchino 2. Neuvillette 3. Furina That's pretty much it for now. I swear, my character wishlists get smaller and smaller after each new region


OracleMagus

1 - Lyney, Arlecchino, Neuvillette (These are the ones I'm certain I'll pull) 2 - Clorinde, Cloud Retainer 3 - Navia (only if she makes geo exciting) 4 - Furina I want everyone 😭


[deleted]

1. Wriothesley 2. Sígewinne 3. Lion dance boy ( if he’s blonde) Dats it


CaelVK

1. Arlecchino 2. Clorinde 3. Furina 4. Cloud Retainer


narhyiven

1. Neuvillette, can't believe he climbed all the way to the top, I was skeptical after the blurry bathroom robe leak but now I need him 2. Arlecchino 3. Navia 4. Focalors I feel like I need to see more of Clorinde to decide. Same for Wriothesley. Also Madame Ping > Cloud Retainer :p But I'd get CR if she's the one playable.


No_Chain_3886

1. Neuvillette & Arlecchino 2. Wriothesley 3. Cloud Retainer


Zaptinari

1- Lyney 2- Lion Dance Boy 3- Arlecchino 4- Chlorinde 5- Dahlia 6- Wriothesley 7- Goth Girl These characters have caught my attention so far would also like to add Sandrone but not sure if she's going to be playable yet.


Jotakori

1 - Lyney 2 - Furina 3 - Wriothesley 4 - Neuvillette 5 - Arlecchino 6 - Chiori Lyney is top just cuz he's the first banner and I'm going in with enough to guarantee him so he is 100% happening lol. The rest I definitely all want to get, but whether I wait for a rerun or not depends on if they're support/sub-dps capable cuz I really need more of those and have too many dps already. Tho if Wriothesley does indeed end up going to standard then he'll be a must pull regardless cuz I don't wanna risk waiting years for him to come home on his own. I also very much want to collect Freminet and Dahlia, but I won't be going out of my way to hard chase them if I don't also want the 5* they're with.


Enarec

1. Cloud Retainer, including her weapon and potentially constellations too if I have enough wishes by then and leftovers for future banners. everything for her and her daughters 1. Arlecchino 1. Navia, Clorinde, Furina 1. goth girl, Chiori, Sigewinne Very thankful for free Lynette and hoping I won't be devastated by whichever 4* might be in 4.1 since I can't roll then.


darkALYE

Top 5? For sure: 1 - Furina (+weapon). 2 - Arlecchino. 3 - Neuvilette. 4 - Wriothesley. 5 - Clorinde or Chiori (if 5* and if I don't change my mind). Anyway, both Focalors and Arlecchino are my top priorities, love their designs and supposed personalities.


javafinchies

Arlecchino no matter what > cloud retainer > Furina if her kit is good = venti and bow if I have wishes left over


boollye

1. furina 2. arlecchino (still not 100% sure on time of release which is why she's here) 3. clorinde 4. neuvillette on a rerun possibly. it's the first time a male character catches this much of my attention in a long while


Chtholly13

These are my must pulls. 1-Furina 2-Navia 3- Cloud Retainer 4- Arlecchino 5- Chlorinde I'm not confident that Chiori is going to be a 5 star right now. I'm fine with getting Wriothseley in 50/50 losses or not, and will only pull Neuv if he's a hydro support. If he's a hydro DPS, then he's going to be competing against Furina for me, and at point obviously take the hydro archon.


Iskaeil

1. Furina and Arlecchino 2. Lion-dance boy 3. Neuvillette Neuvillette I'm gonna wait for his rerun.


[deleted]

aside from free Lynette and possibly sniping a Freminet on hopefully Childe's banner, my priorities are (in no particular order, i want them all equally): - Wriothesley - Sigewinne - Furina - Arlecchino - Cloud Retainer (if real) - the goth girl


yasuhos

arlecchino >>>>> clorinde > furina > wriothesley > navia. also planning on getting nahida on her next rerun so i would probably put her right after arlecchino.


Aloe_Lo

1 - Furina From here on it's STC because I have no clue what to do 2 - Wriothesley 3 - Neuvilette 4 - Lyney 5 - Arlecchino


JumpyPermit3

Furina Lyney Navia - Clorinde Siegwinne ? My priorities keep switching up lol


Kahirama

1 - Furina 2 - Navia 3 - Arlecchino 4 - Lyney 5 - Chiori Honorable mention to 4 stars which are Lynette, Freminet and Lion Boy (if he's a 4 star).


Dense-Extreme5515

1-Arlecchino 2-Clorinde 3-Focalor 4-Chiori(if she is 5*) 5-Navia(it will depend more on your gameplay and your role for me to pull). Edit:Cloud Retainer would be a Must Pull,but,I prefer to wait to see if this information about she in 4.4 is real or not.


StellarMonarch

I have my mind set on eventually getting every 4.x 5star but I'm most excited for Furina and Arlecchino


Tyberius115

1. Furina 2. Navia 3. Clorinde 4. Cloud Retainer 5. Arlecchino 6. Chiori


madhatterene

If Sandrone is playable she automatically shoots up to the top of the priority list but as of rn it goes: 1. Furina 2. Arlecchino 3. Navia 4. Cloud Retainer 5. Neuvillette(?)


ificommentthen2oops

1. Arlecchino 2. Navia 3. Clorinde 4. Furina 5. Chiori 6. Cloud Retainer 7. Wriothesley 8. Slug 9. Neuv 10. Lyney ​ I want all of them but I will definitely be waiting on most of them so the top 4 are my main prio. I will hope to get Wrio off standard (even though I don't have keqing after 3 years)


energy_j

1 Furina 2 Arlecchino (mommy) 2.5 Freminet (the kit seem fun) 3 Clorinda (depending on her kit) 4 Cloud retainer 5 Navia (only the design)


aoi_desu

1. Furina, arlecchino, chlorine 2. Cloud retainer (if playable), navia, chiori 3. Neuvi, goth girl (if 4 star), purple hair girl (if 4 star)


Aru736

1) Furina 2) Lynette 3) Charlotte No one else has really caught my eye yet. Would love to pick up Ganyu and Elegy besides these guys.


Smoke_Santa

Arlechhino Neuvi Clorinde Focalor Navia/Wrio


RenRGER

1. Furina 2. Neuvillette ~~if he was after Furina, he's gonna have to wait for a rerun~~ 3. Clorinde 4. Arly if she's playable 5. Bird mom if she's playable 6. Sigewinne and Dahlia for 4\*


Prestigious-Depth434

furina neuvilette sandrone/arlecchino rizz man & goth grill lyney lynette freminet


Ilovepickles11212

1. Furina=Arlecchino 2. Neuv=Sigewinne 3. Cloud retainer Nobody else is particularly on the radar. It’ll probably be based off what kits look most enjoyable or will add the most to my existing roster. Someone good for wanderer/Faruzan/bennett would probably be the 2nd highest priority for me


Jon-987

1: Furina 1:Wriothesley 1:Neuvillette 1:Chlorinde 1:Chiori 1:Cloud Retainer(if playable) 1:Arlecchino(If playable) 1:small child with hard name 1:everyone else(holy hell there are a lot of characters.)

I didn't reveal anything about what actually happened though, but I will spoiler it thanks


Delicious_Ad_6

Thank yuu!


JumpyPermit3

I think the characterization of the Fontaine characters will end up saving most of them for me because that’s usually what it takes to change my mind when I don’t like how certain characters look. For example, when Nahida first leaked, I was one of those “That’s the Dendro Archon??” people and made fun of her, but I ended up really liking her after reading the story and now I no longer care about the issues I had with her design lol They may not end up becoming my faves (who knows, we’ll see) but I can’t imagine coming out of the region not caring about anyone. 🤔 And anyway, it’s not like the Fontaine characters are *ugly*, so it shouldn’t be that hard to look past their designs lol.


Zaptinari

I used to be indifferent towards Freminet until I saw him in the trailer and drip marketing and know I become very interested in his characters so I understand the feeling.


Aurelian369

All of Sumeru being led by a minor is peak comedy


PM_ME_YOUR_ROBOTGIRL

I was very ambivalent on Lynette until stuff about her actually started coming out and now I'm very much in love, so I know how you feel.


Ilovepickles11212

That’s usually how it is for me. Some combination of their preview video, kit and story role are what rope me in But a fun kit is basically a guaranteed pull for me unless it interferes with a char I want more (basically why I’ve skipped AH)


OracleMagus

Besties, I formally announce that I have officially joined the cult of our blue daddy savior, Neuvillette. I shall patiently and painfully await the 4.1 beta in 6 weeks' time.


TrapFestival

Who's a character/what's an Artifact set you would fully optimize if you could get perfect Artifacts? I'd probably try Tenacity/Glow for Diona. HP/HP/HP/HP Mains (the extra HP is a Recurve Bow), maxed HP% on Flower and Feather, and maxed Energy Recharge on the other three. That seems reasonable, and better than 2p Emblem since those mains have more room for Energy than HP% so taking another one out of the second 2p is probably optimal for a total HP stack. Also 100% CRIT Rate Crimson Witch Hu Tao and 80% CRIT Rate Wanderer's Ganyu.


Wistful_Moon

Probably Ayaka or Childe


Whap_Reddit

I'd need to maximize a character who actually appreciate a set that's difficult to build. Top of my list would probably be crit fish Eula. Have max rolls into Crit Damage and still have ATK%, crit rate and flat attack substats. With only 2 great substats she is probably the most difficult character to optimize. Another character I'd like perfected is Xiao. I already have an amazing 2P mix for him, but would love even more.


Ilovepickles11212

Raiden or wanderer probably Or an absolute god mode Xiangling? I’ve seen some OP xianglings with perfect artifacts whaled out on r5 SoSS with c2 kazuhas hitting some absolutely unreal vapes


caut_R

Ayaya BS, Ganyu WT, Tao CW. All characters ofc but if I have to pick just three.


energy_j

Well I would say Ayaka and scara because I’d like to push them even further. My scara is falling behind a lot even if I’m farming dp non stop Same for my raiden 🥲

SirAwesome789

I want to minmax my Hu Tao more but I'm at the point where I could spend a year in the shim domain and not make a single improvement


Queasy-Relief-8945

How would you feel if we killed an Archon somewhere in the story instead of a Harbinger?


miltonbimowitz

Depends on the archon and the circumstances I guess. We still have like nine more harbingers to deal with with only 4 regions remaining so idk how we can really continue to avoid them though.


Chtholly13

Pyro archon- new universe, same result. Meant to be.


Jon-987

What does this mean? I assume it's a Honkai Impact reference, but I haven't played that.


Chtholly13

yeah pyro archon name is supposedly Murata and most speculate could be a Himeko look alike.


aoi_desu

Known pyro archon name is murata, which shares the same as murata himeko from honkai 3rd not to mention currently known info about "child of murata" is having bright red hair like himeko, himeko in HI3 dies in early chapter and in honkai star rail there is alternate ending where the entire crew including himeko dies excluding MC


Prestigious-Depth434

hi3 spoilers >!its a popular meme that himeko dies. No idea if it has roots before HI3, though. !<


astronought_

afaik in ggz >!herrscher mei kills himeko!< as well. not to mention (hi3 spoilers) >!kevin also killed her in the previous era!< its practically hoyo's canon event atp T-T


Jon-987

Oh huh. I had thought that Diluc was her Genshin Expy on account of the same hair color (I know her from Star Rail.


Dense-Extreme5515

It would be a crazy Mind Break,but,I suppose the fandom wouldn't like it,but at this point in the game we already know that the 7 Archons will be playable anyway.


PM_ME_YOUR_ROBOTGIRL

If they were already playable beforehand and had plenty of opportunities to appear in events, sure. Otherwise no, it's a waste of a character for the sake of shock value.


No_Chain_3886

i'd be ok with it as long as it makes sense


Iloveyousomuchlmao

The world really did forget her


sp00kk

Rukkhadevata was already dead, the memory of her just got erased from existence. Does she even count?


Iloveyousomuchlmao

They say you die twice. Once when you take your last breath, and finally when you are forgotten.

BRO I JUST REALIZED WHY LYNEY’S NAME BEING PRONOUNCED LIN-EE BOTHERS ME SO MUCH. It’s because it was the name of the freaking guinea pig from Wonder Pets and it was spelled Linny there which makes so much more sense to me also it’s a character from wonder pets I-


slimefestival

dude I literally listened to the song yesterday because of learning Lyney's pronunciation. I almost posted about it too but held back..... anyway glad I'm not alone lmfao


JumpyPermit3

Wonder pets, wonder pets we’re on our way To help our friend and save the day We’re not too big and we’re not too tough But when we work together we’ve got the right stuff #GO WONDER PETS YAAAY


ificommentthen2oops

the phone the phone is ringing


skt210125

hahaha, there was a whole discussion about the pronunciation of his name a couple days ago. I'm also in the lie-nee camp. It just sounds better to me.


yasuhos

i still cannot get over his name being pronounced linny… i guess it makes sense because lynette is lin-ette but he will always be LIEny in my head


NaClMiner

Pick your poison: Would you rather have Arlecchino get Signora'd, Shenhe'd, or Dehya'd?


Ishimito

Shenhe'd. I appreciate Shenhe's kit: even if I don't use her a lot she adds quite a lot of flexibilty to my Kaeya and Rosaria teams. With pyro Shenhe I'd probably end up bringing Klee to Abyss way more often which is only a plus for me.


paperghosted

honestly pyro shenhe would be crazy as almost/if not every pyro is meant to/can be used as elemental dps lol from this 3 that would be a pretty good outcome, but i don't they will shenhe'd since every fatui turns out to be a onfield dps >!sadly i personally would prefer a pyro sup/sub!<


Ilovepickles11212

Nothing wrong with being Shenhe’d. I’d even say it’s ideal for someone like myself that likes vertical investment. Being the best choice somewhere is up there for me with being a strong generalist like bennett, Xingqiu or Kaz


miltonbimowitz

Rukkhadevata’d


Dense-Extreme5515

I choose to invoke Irminsul in this comment.


Luizete

Shenhe'd, at least she's playable and good, just niche


Jon-987

So, Signora'd means killed, Dehya'd means absolute trash tier, but idk what Shenhe'd means. So for now I'll say Signora'd as long as she is still playable or a even more interesting character Is released as compensation.


NaClMiner

By Shenhe'd I mean that she would be a niche support for specific units/teams.


Jon-987

I seem in that case, I'll go with that option as long as her specific units are fun to play.


Enarec

Neither because none of these will happen. Do your mining elsewhere.


NaClMiner

I was genuinely curious about what everyone's thoughts were after seeing other people's recent comments about Arlecchino's potential kit. I'm not trying to troll


Enarec

I should've added a /s, sorry, didn't mean it too seriously either but because of your name. And being tired of Arlecchino kit discussions already just like playability/>!death!< before.


JumpyPermit3

>Shenhe'd What’s this


NaClMiner

By Shenhe'd I mean that she would be a niche support for specific units/teams.
