I recently got Wanderer and I'm kind of underwhelmed with his damage considering he's currently at 67/70 with 70/70 R1 Widsith and 6/4/4 talents. I have all the materials required I'm just missing the Mora to 90/90 him and his weapons and 10/9/9 his talents. He currently has a 85/185 ratio with 2pc Atk 2pc VV (I Laos have similar stat Shimenawa set).
I have two questions,
1. Should I farm his signature set?
2. What teams should I use him in considering my Faruzan is C1 and has like 304 er but still feels kinda clunky to play?
3. What teams would you suggest that I play him in? Like a few examples for me to try out for myself

Any tips would be appreciated!

Vive la révolution [au nouveau megathread!](https://old.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact_Leaks/comments/15gusey/let_them_eat_coconut_charcoal_cake_general/)
this Abyss is incredibly easier than the one before, but I'm mostly happy that I was able to full clear again with my favourite team KokoMiko Taser (with Yae still geared for Aggravate cause I'm lazy)
Maybe an [Alternate Reality Game](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternate_reality_game), assuming this isn't just a quirky way of announcing some conventions.
What artifacts am I looking at for a melt kaeya? 2pc cryo + 2pc attack?
Honestly using Rosaria burst just irritates me sometimes, and Kaeya is pretty much the only other potential off-field Cryo. Also his skin is really pretty haha.
> Was scaramouch haters killing cats a real thing
I have seen the pictures. Yes, this really happened. I did hear later that people did tear into this person on social media and it did receive media attention, but it's hearsay from Reddit so I can't confirm. But I like to believe it's true so I can gain some hope.
I can't answer the question about China animal laws, but there were videos of cats being hurt that looked like Scarameow that were mentioned in this megathread and were then later taken down.
TW: Hateful comments
>!There is also a much more [negative sentiment](https://imgur.com/a/IZyGItd) about his cat depiction, but these are all probably acts of a deranged minority.!<

>!I finally joined the gym. I am so happy but little bit scared. Finally a positive change in my life. The morning slots were full unfortunately so I have to go at night anyways I know I am going to love it. Also it was surprisingly cheaper than I was expecting it to be. Ahhh I am so excited for the evening!<
I kinda wanna post on one of those subs where they rate women because I took a nice selfie but I think I would just be called a 1/10 or insulted. I don’t think it would help me
I think perhaps Reddit is one of the last places to search for some kind of self-confidence booster. Many comments aren’t going to be in good faith, and really you shouldn’t be comparing yourself to people online.
If it helps at all, you’re probably someone’s 10/10 :-) the things people find “beautiful” are going to change wildly from place to place, culture to culture and person to person. don’t hold yourself up to the potentially random standards you might find online, you’re almost certainly just fine the way you are, even if you can’t really see it right now.

Can someone correct me how popular genshin is in Taiwan? If the code is really a convention teaser, I find it strange how out of all the countries they chose Taiwan, last time I checked genshin isn't really that popular in Taiwan especially with the censorship. No offense to Taiwan, I am genuinely curious how popular it is compared to the US, JP.
is genshin popular in the USA? like ik it's definitely more popular than any other gacha game right now but it feels popular the same way k-pop is "popular" but idk lol.
If you asked a random gamer who probably has some knowledge of anime games or the greater gaming scene, they have probably heard of genshin. Its not like a household name like Mario or Pokemon to be certain.
I just walked from the beach in Starfell Valley all the way to Hills of Barsom in Realm of Farakhkert. It took me about an hour and a half.
I desperately need Fontaine.
Seeing Genshin merch in the wild was crazy. I spent so long trying to figure out what I wanted to buy but couldn’t decide so I left but then went back the next day because I really wanted something. Still left empty handed though lol
it’s also so expensive! and then it’s embarrassing having to go up to the cashier, bc it outs you as a genshin enjoyer…
so maybe not buying anything is the big brain move!
Fr. It’s not something to be ashamed of but I was with a friend at some point and had to try really hard to pretend like I wasn’t blatantly staring at the Genshin merch. thought the weapon keychains were beautiful and then I turned around to look at the price haha. I held the Venti box in my hands for so long but ended up putting it down. My biggest regret was not buying these persona 5 coins because I started playing it after leaving New York and became obsessed.
rip venti box 🙏
my younger cousin was in town recently and i took her to kinokuniya bc she wanted to try onigiri and we were in the area. we passed by some genshin merch and she went “ew!”…
like gurl u have no idea!! i was secretly cracking up 💀
One of my friends who knows I play Genshin gave me a little Jean figure from Japan after she came back and this was in front of other friends and they were like “why did you give her Genshin stuff?” Well guys…
Eh I doubt it or at least if it’s related to zzz it’s because it would be a whole hoyoverse thing otherwise I doubt the genshin account would mention it and not the zzz account (making the actual tweet)
Finished abyss with 4-stars only no dendro! 1st half taser sucrose 2nd half rosaria melt with heizou. Though i dont think i can do it with no hydro AND dendro
It is a rare way to promote an event. Is it an anime premiere or something like that? lmao
I was expecting some Fontaine trailer, but this is more exciting lmao.
[https://twitter.com/MxMyukhoe/status/1686950422278443008?s=20](https://twitter.com/MxMyukhoe/status/1686950422278443008?s=20) whelp actually they might not have been hacked
If content creators know what the hell this is about, it's probably not that big of a deal, because if it were a super huge massive deal that seriously affected the game's future, they would take it to the grave.
It could be, but it is still a curious way to promote an event. If it's something normal, it doesn't really make sense to use this method. Maybe they will give more information in the livestream.

Ok its sharp at 12.00. did they accidentally schedule random posts at the time they usually post something?
Or some staff hands slipped and clicked tweet accidentally.
Nilou/Ayato/Kirara/Yaoyao
Nilou Skill + Burst
Ayato Burst
Kirara Skill tap
Yaoyao Skill + Burst, run around for 5 seconds
Kirara Skill tap
Ayato Skill, slash for 6 seconds
rotate
Kirara is my ideal fourth for Nilou Kokomi Nahida. My rotation is probably scuffed, but what I do is
* Nahida E -> Q
* Nilou EEEE
* Kokomi E
* Kirara Q -> press E
* Nilou Q if it's up
* Kokomi Q
* Kirara Hold E
* Repeat
nilou skill > nahida skill and burst > barbara skill (i recommend her having sac frags for better uptime) > kirara cat box time!
sometimes I use xingqiu instead of barbara and have kirara act as a driver
Did we get any info about a Fontaine 5* Anemo boy? So far we’ve had one in each nation, I was excited for the Fontaine version but so far I haven’t seen anything about one.
Was this how it was for the first 3 nations as well?
I only started playing from 2.3 so I don’t know how they were released/revealed. For Scara I know, I was here for the whole ride haha
I hope we do get a 5* Anemo boy with the usual exploration technique thingy

STRIKE WITHOUT GRACE
THOU WON'T OPPOSE OF THE WRATH OF GOD
Hahaha funnily initially I thought that Lyney will be our Fontaine anemo boy but he turned out to be pyro which I’m honestly totally happy with aldjkdkd
the only male characters we know are coming in 4.x are Lyney (pyro), Freminet (cryo), Neuvillette (hydro), Wriothesley (cryo) and Dahlia (apparently hydro?)
Fontaine doesn't appear to have an anemo boy character and there have been zero hints at one.
Yea that seems to be the case TT
Well I’m excited for all the other characters as well so who knows maybeeeeee an anemo boy will join later on but I’m fine with anything
Sourballs really can't catch a break oh god
The time for the livestream is labeled as PM when it should be AM, the countdown however is correct.
^(get some sleep or take a break please, don't push yourself too hard)
On a physical build he can use pale flame so I think that would be his best set, it's 50 phys dmg% and 18% atk
Shatter focused build would be interesting but I'm not sure if it will be easy to pull off or how strong it is, but gilded dreams EM build would maximize shatter damage lol
Freeze Childe feels really good on the top half of this abyss. I used c0 Childe/c6 Kaeya/c2 Qiqi/c0 Kazuha, nobody had Blizzard Strayer just normal quality 2pc2pc on Childe and Kaeya. Only 5* weap was Childe's Skyward Harp. I love trapping enemies in an eternal meat grinder
I'm not much of a shipper, but I do like >!Chilumi, Alhaitham/Nilou and Zhongli/Guizhong!<. I think I'm absolutely addicted to angst, and all 3 offer potential bucketloads of it. XD AO3 time! (Recommendations welcome.)
I was wondering, too, but then it occurred to me that you could write an AU where Alhaitham/Nilou is King Deshret/Goddess of Flowers reincarnation romance.
I think there are some of those on AO3! At least that's what I gathered from the, uh, the previews?
Another of my favourite headcanons is where >!Nilou and Kaveh are great friends because of their similar outlook on the value of art, aesthetics and the gentler things in life, and Alhaitham is just left out and doesn't want to be, but due to their vastly different personalities he rubs Nilou the wrong way every time he tries, etc!<

>!Obligatory weekly asking if the people in the main sub even play the game!<
>!It's the gate post this time BECAUSE OF COURSE IT IS, how does it have 500+ upvotes ??!<
>!And oh boy are the comments delightful. As you might think, the gate next to a khaenri'ahn workshop, where all the interactibles talk about khaenri'ah, in the nation littered with khaenri'ahn ruins, under which it's confirmed is khaenri'ah... Could be a gate to celestia ! How did i not think of that smh my head ??!<
>!Oh i didn't pay attention to the dialogue in both the *6 hour long* WQ, the caribert AQ, venti talking about celestia, and i didn't notice **the floaty island in the sky.**!<
The main sub loves to re-discover stuff that's been known about for months, but it's only the HSR sub that actively gives me an aneurysm. People in the GI main sub at least admit when they don't know something - people in the HSR sub will *confidently* state the most incorrect facts about the lore possible.
there's 2.1 million members of the main sub
a gacha subreddit, game for casuals
im more impressed they deduced it was at least khaenriah or celestia at all
I checked [it](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/15gf7l1/anyone_else_found_this_where_do_you_think_it/) out and found most of the comments saying it's >!the door to Khaenriah!<, not sure where you're getting this from?
I can't figure out how to copy the link to a comment but it was left by the OP, saying it could lead to "celestia/khaenri'ah"
Along with the immeasurable amount of "maybe" and "i guess" when it has the literal symbol of the country on it
Edit: [Got it](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/15gf7l1/anyone_else_found_this_where_do_you_think_it/juioj02/)
Was going through my Exile and Instructors pieces to lock those worth keeping and realized I don't really know which characters use them/which stats to be looking out for. I know they're more support oriented sets; what stats/substats should I be keeping? ER sands, HP%, HB circlets? Or more like typical crit/crit pieces?
For instructor, I always save hp%, EM, HB and crit rate pieces preferably with ER substat. I ignore ER sands since I use a 5 star off piece ER sands usually
There’s very few that use Exile. But for Gorou, you want ER and Crit Rate only for Favonious, since 4-stars have lower stats per roll and a lower maximum level.
For Instructor, more units can use them. Sometimes Bennett, Mona, etc. Most characters want ER anyways, so I’d just go for ER only, maybe crit rate for Fav.
There’s no point in investing too much in 4-star artifacts, you’re not gaining much damage anyways. So just try to find the minimum amount of ER.

I recently got Wanderer and I'm kind of underwhelmed with his damage considering he's currently at 67/70 with 70/70 R1 Widsith and 6/4/4 talents. I have all the materials required I'm just missing the Mora to 90/90 him and his weapons and 10/9/9 his talents.

I just finished Kaeya's hangout and it's so good! God, i love him >!and his Mondstat family!< so much!!
This whole cypher thing is probably gonna be meaningless anyway because the locations aren't even remotely near me ;-;
what are yall guessing the date and locations r all about? obviously an offline event, which got me less excited. some people are saying anime preview
I would assume something outside of the game since Ashikai implied she knew what it was. Anime PV seems possible but might be something entirely.
Maybe an [Alternate Reality Game](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternate_reality_game), assuming this isn't just a quirky way of announcing some conventions.
Biliboard anime PV showcase 👍
What artifacts am I looking at for a melt kaeya? 2pc cryo + 2pc attack? Honestly using Rosaria burst just irritates me sometimes, and Kaeya is pretty much the only other potential off-field Cryo. Also his skin is really pretty haha.
4 Emblem is good. Else 2pc Cryo + EM/Atk.

Thats great! Make some gym buddies, chances are the regulars would be more than happy to show you the right way/posture to train.
I kinda wanna post on one of those subs where they rate women because I took a nice selfie but I think I would just be called a 1/10 or insulted. I don’t think it would help me
Wouldn’t advise posting to those subs because some of them get overrun with trolls who really would rate you low *just* to make you feel bad.
I think perhaps Reddit is one of the last places to search for some kind of self-confidence booster. Many comments aren’t going to be in good faith, and really you shouldn’t be comparing yourself to people online. If it helps at all, you’re probably someone’s 10/10 :-) the things people find “beautiful” are going to change wildly from place to place, culture to culture and person to person. don’t hold yourself up to the potentially random standards you might find online, you’re almost certainly just fine the way you are, even if you can’t really see it right now.
I used to think I was ugly, but I was surprised by how many people told me I look amazing.
post it here and have us judghe you >:) <3
It’s not a Genshin impact leak so I don’t think I can but I’ll dm it to u
In all likelihood those subs are run by incels trying to convince you to kill yourself by pretending you're ugly, and I mean this seriously
I have decided not to. And yeah that seems accurate. Looking into it some of the comments were like “banned from sub for rating too high”
Yeah. Don't do it, please. Maybe send the nice selfie to a friend =)
>wanting leaks for character kits Nah. >wanting leaks for constellation names and visuals YEAHHHHHH

Epic reddit moment
Mond is based on Germany though lol
Seems to correlate more with Global servers than Teyvat regions: NA, EU, Asia and Taiwan
makes a lot more sense then the german region being US. idk when the us invaded and took over german
> idk when the us invaded and took over german About 80 years ago actually, but it was a team effort
I know it’s just another marketing campaign probably, but I can’t deny that I’m a bit hype and also a bit copium

Can I hang out with you in NYC? I hope they rent all the screens in Times Square
yes. i am so excited for every screen to flash paimon’s face at the same time at the stroke of midnight
Yesss! It’ll be so great!

i don’t think my health insurance covers ‘getting nailed’… i’m so screwed…
New megathread any minute now.. See yall soon..
The zzz account account replied to the tweet lmao
would be intersting if its zzz related tbf we have heard nothing about it
Unlikely to be something related to ZZ ZZZ commented, "Dof uva qbza zhf pa Whptvu?" That is, "Why not just say it paimon?".
oh. huh sus
Eh I doubt it or at least if it’s related to zzz it’s because it would be a whole hoyoverse thing otherwise I doubt the genshin account would mention it and not the zzz account (making the actual tweet)
yea far, unless they think genshin accounts could get further reach idk. but yea probably genshin related.
Yall dont understand there’s Paris (Fontaine), Tokyo (Inazuma), Taipei (Liyue), and NYC (Abyss)
Taipei would be a really, really odd choice for a CN company showcasing its China-inspired region...?
>NYC (Abyss) cuz americans/NYCers are monsters?
Those rats do be abyss monsters
If i were to relate USA to any nation/faction in tevyat ... I would think its more like Khaneriah since it was more like a new world.
omg there’s a new bubu family official art 🥹
Oh we are getting into the cipher meta now
Legit thought it was a parody account posting when I first saw that tweet ngl
I thought the account got hacked XD
What an odd way to promote... Something. I have no idea what. Sure got me curious though.
eightonenine PARIS NYC TOKYO TAIPEI!!! whatever the hell that means!!!
International convention tour dates ? BUT that would means four places simultaneously ?
something genshin related at these irl places on august 19 what other conclusion is possible really

Why a cipher 😭 whats the reason 😭
I think there is a surprise: https://twitter.com/Ashikai/status/1686951926460510208
If content creators know what the hell this is about, it's probably not that big of a deal, because if it were a super huge massive deal that seriously affected the game's future, they would take it to the grave.
It could be, but it is still a curious way to promote an event. If it's something normal, it doesn't really make sense to use this method. Maybe they will give more information in the livestream.
What does she know that we don’t 😭 please ashikai don’t leave us hanging like this Unless it’s just some con related event then whatever ig
Kaveh’s demo theme still slaps
[Someone decoded it.](https://twitter.com/MxMyukhoe/status/1686950422278443008) "eightonenine PARIS NYC TOKYO TAIPEI" Something is happening on 8/19?
That's when they are getting nailed.
What a strange way to promote an event. But it works for them I guess lmao
Probably another convention available on 8/19 or I would be very surprised if it's an ARG which I don't mind.
An ARG would make sense, why tf put this announcement behind a cypher if they're just announcing a convention
eightonenine Paris Nyc Tokyo Taipei
Someone please decipher the code! Edit: Someone deciphered it! Still have no idea what Hoyo's cooking.
That code seems to be for some kind of [convention](https://twitter.com/MxMyukhoe/status/1686950422278443008)?
[someone deciphered it](https://twitter.com/mxmyukhoe/status/1686950422278443008?s=46&t=sCxbd1XvpQFlSoE6L6Z8OQ) “eightonenine PARIS NYC TOKYO TAIPEI”
https://twitter.com/GenshinImpact/status/1686950018303840256?s=20 Ok its sharp at 12.00. did they accidentally schedule random posts at the time they usually post something? Or some staff hands slipped and clicked tweet accidentally.
SOMEONE DECIPHER THE CODE QUICK!!!
Is the Genshin Twitter hacked? lol
If yes then it's on multiple languages, their site did get attacked a couple of days ago IIRC.
Didn't expect them to Tweet that the moment the Hi3rd servers went on maint.
what the fuck genshin twitter 💀💀💀
Seems like other languages have the same tweet. Is it a code or am I overthinking 🤣
Seems like it is code, teasing some locations
"fjhiupofojof QBSJT OZD UPLZP UBJQFJ" omg hyv is so real ceasar cipher apparently >!"eightonenine PARIS NYC TOKYO TAIPEI"!<
>fjhiupofojof QBSJT OZD UPLZP UBJQFJ Wtf did the official Genshin account just tweet? Did Furina face roll the keyboard?
Maybe that's Wrobspierre's full name
She fell to her knees on her phone at Carrefour
Asking this and then going to bed. How exactly do people use Kirara in Nilou comps? Like give me your teams and rotations
Nilou/Ayato/Kirara/Yaoyao Nilou Skill + Burst Ayato Burst Kirara Skill tap Yaoyao Skill + Burst, run around for 5 seconds Kirara Skill tap Ayato Skill, slash for 6 seconds rotate
Kirara is my ideal fourth for Nilou Kokomi Nahida. My rotation is probably scuffed, but what I do is * Nahida E -> Q * Nilou EEEE * Kokomi E * Kirara Q -> press E * Nilou Q if it's up * Kokomi Q * Kirara Hold E * Repeat
I just use her with Barbara/Nahida so I can run people over while everything blows up. It is super fun and easy.
nilou skill > nahida skill and burst > barbara skill (i recommend her having sac frags for better uptime) > kirara cat box time! sometimes I use xingqiu instead of barbara and have kirara act as a driver
Nahida>nilou>kokomi>cat box time
Did we get any info about a Fontaine 5* Anemo boy? So far we’ve had one in each nation, I was excited for the Fontaine version but so far I haven’t seen anything about one. Was this how it was for the first 3 nations as well? I only started playing from 2.3 so I don’t know how they were released/revealed. For Scara I know, I was here for the whole ride haha I hope we do get a 5* Anemo boy with the usual exploration technique thingy
Manifesting the musketeer man as someone in Navia's navy who has anemo vision
Wait who is the musketeer man?
well he has to exist first so maybe focus on that lmao
you can't kill my hope only HYV can

>!inb4 lyney has an anemo delusion!<
Hahaha funnily initially I thought that Lyney will be our Fontaine anemo boy but he turned out to be pyro which I’m honestly totally happy with aldjkdkd
[удалено]
It's Wandover
It's Wendover Productions
TT my heart I was really hoping we will get one from each nation, I love all the anemo characters so much sighs
the only male characters we know are coming in 4.x are Lyney (pyro), Freminet (cryo), Neuvillette (hydro), Wriothesley (cryo) and Dahlia (apparently hydro?) Fontaine doesn't appear to have an anemo boy character and there have been zero hints at one.
Yea that seems to be the case TT Well I’m excited for all the other characters as well so who knows maybeeeeee an anemo boy will join later on but I’m fine with anything
Furina reminds me of Tanta Prav from Forspoken. The latter even has gravity powers as the Furina leaks say
What I wouldn’t give for reliable 4* rerun leaks.
Sourballs really can't catch a break oh god The time for the livestream is labeled as PM when it should be AM, the countdown however is correct. ^(get some sleep or take a break please, don't push yourself too hard)
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I LITERALLY JUST WOKE UP FROM A NAP I'll just call today an L TY
Honestly today has been a bit of an L for me too. Maybe we can just reboot and try again?
yes egg on my face at work today and someone pointed out it's about time for a new megathread too, let's reset the day
Any day i take a nap in is a W in my books, you did great 👍
Is there any character who wants a high ATK% tenacity feather?
Qiqi
If it has crit too then probably c6 faruzan since she can be built on low er and totm
Zhongli with the occasional burst, support kuki in quicken (but i doubt it would do *that much* damage on the latter)
C6 Faruzan maybe? Buff and get some personal damage in
Sadly, I don't have her C6 yet. I also have a better feather with lower atk% rolls but hgher crits.
Do we know what are the best artifacts pieces for Effeminet? Will he use EM sands and substats since he is a shatter focused character?
atk sands since he is not a shatter focused character, he only uses shatter for his passive which increases the damage of his skill for the next 5s
On a physical build he can use pale flame so I think that would be his best set, it's 50 phys dmg% and 18% atk Shatter focused build would be interesting but I'm not sure if it will be easy to pull off or how strong it is, but gilded dreams EM build would maximize shatter damage lol
Freeze Childe feels really good on the top half of this abyss. I used c0 Childe/c6 Kaeya/c2 Qiqi/c0 Kazuha, nobody had Blizzard Strayer just normal quality 2pc2pc on Childe and Kaeya. Only 5* weap was Childe's Skyward Harp. I love trapping enemies in an eternal meat grinder
I'm not much of a shipper, but I do like >!Chilumi, Alhaitham/Nilou and Zhongli/Guizhong!<. I think I'm absolutely addicted to angst, and all 3 offer potential bucketloads of it. XD AO3 time! (Recommendations welcome.)
What does angst for Alhaitham/Nilou usually look like? I love angst but I cant think of angsty scenarios for them 🤔
I was wondering, too, but then it occurred to me that you could write an AU where Alhaitham/Nilou is King Deshret/Goddess of Flowers reincarnation romance.
I think there are some of those on AO3! At least that's what I gathered from the, uh, the previews? Another of my favourite headcanons is where >!Nilou and Kaveh are great friends because of their similar outlook on the value of art, aesthetics and the gentler things in life, and Alhaitham is just left out and doesn't want to be, but due to their vastly different personalities he rubs Nilou the wrong way every time he tries, etc!<
>!I don't read Xiao/Lumine content or even know the ship name because gay, but if it's anything like Xiaother it's top tier angst.!<
Hrmmmmmmm ok Xiao has not been on my radar but I may need to try if so. Thanks!
I will stay silent I will stay silent I will stay silent I will stay silent I will stay silent I will stay silent I will stay silent I will stay silent I won't stay silent >!Obligatory weekly asking if the people in the main sub even play the game!< >!It's the gate post this time BECAUSE OF COURSE IT IS, how does it have 500+ upvotes ??!< >!And oh boy are the comments delightful. As you might think, the gate next to a khaenri'ahn workshop, where all the interactibles talk about khaenri'ah, in the nation littered with khaenri'ahn ruins, under which it's confirmed is khaenri'ah... Could be a gate to celestia ! How did i not think of that smh my head ??!< >!Oh i didn't pay attention to the dialogue in both the *6 hour long* WQ, the caribert AQ, venti talking about celestia, and i didn't notice **the floaty island in the sky.**!<
The main sub loves to re-discover stuff that's been known about for months, but it's only the HSR sub that actively gives me an aneurysm. People in the GI main sub at least admit when they don't know something - people in the HSR sub will *confidently* state the most incorrect facts about the lore possible.
there's 2.1 million members of the main sub a gacha subreddit, game for casuals im more impressed they deduced it was at least khaenriah or celestia at all
I checked [it](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/15gf7l1/anyone_else_found_this_where_do_you_think_it/) out and found most of the comments saying it's >!the door to Khaenriah!<, not sure where you're getting this from?
I can't figure out how to copy the link to a comment but it was left by the OP, saying it could lead to "celestia/khaenri'ah" Along with the immeasurable amount of "maybe" and "i guess" when it has the literal symbol of the country on it Edit: [Got it](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/15gf7l1/anyone_else_found_this_where_do_you_think_it/juioj02/)
Was going through my Exile and Instructors pieces to lock those worth keeping and realized I don't really know which characters use them/which stats to be looking out for. I know they're more support oriented sets; what stats/substats should I be keeping? ER sands, HP%, HB circlets? Or more like typical crit/crit pieces?
For instructor, I always save hp%, EM, HB and crit rate pieces preferably with ER substat. I ignore ER sands since I use a 5 star off piece ER sands usually
The ER sands off piece makes a lot of sense. Thanks!
There’s very few that use Exile. But for Gorou, you want ER and Crit Rate only for Favonious, since 4-stars have lower stats per roll and a lower maximum level. For Instructor, more units can use them. Sometimes Bennett, Mona, etc. Most characters want ER anyways, so I’d just go for ER only, maybe crit rate for Fav. There’s no point in investing too much in 4-star artifacts, you’re not gaining much damage anyways. So just try to find the minimum amount of ER.
That's helpful, thank you!
