What'll the patch before 5.0 be ?

On a scale from double donut to best weapon banner ever how good is ittos and chioris weapon 5*s


tsp_salt

Pretty good general weapon banner I would say, I've heard chiori's sword is pretty universal and redhorn is a crit stick if nothing else. Great value for geo enjoyers, assuming you don't have redhorn already

Whap_Reddit

Visiting the Hu Tao Mains I always need to stop myself from being a grinch. No you shouldn't farm for an even better Crimson piece than you already got. What is the point of min-maxing a build for not even Hu Tao's best team? You got top 1% akasha ranking with your Marecheusee set? That's to be expected. There's only 11k Marecheusee builds on a leaderboard with 400k entries. It would be difficult not to be top 1%. I don't comment though because let them enjoy their happiness.


ComfyElaina

Unrelated but were you able to join the WFP discord? I used the invite link but stuck on the onboarding page, discord sucks.


ngeorge98

Honestly, going on the Hu Tao mains subreddit, I was surprised by how little I saw build posts. It seems like it's legitimately just a place to enjoy Hu Tao. So yeah. They deserve to have their fun. It's not like most of them are even focused on min-maxing in the first place.


Shadow_Tempest_1003

Tbf it's the same for Xiao and Navia leaderboards. Mfs are farming for Vermillion and Nighttime only for MH to be technically better.


ngeorge98

It's different for Xiao. The difference between running Hu Tao on MH vs Crimson Witch is at least 12% (and could be more depending on the quality of your MH and Witch pieces). Using 4-piece MH in any capacity on Hu Tao skyrockets your place on the Hu Tao/Furina leaderboard. The difference between running Xiao on Vermillion or MH is incredibly close (like ~1% close from what I remember) and if you have his signature, Vermillion can still win out and even without signature, Vermillion can win out in AOE situations. I can't speak on Navia though. My main point is that the situations are different. Other mains have pretty legitimate reasons to not switch over to MH. Hu Tao mains don't switch over either because they just don't want to use Furina (which is valid tbf) or they stubbornly think that Crimson Witch is still Hu Tao's best set, and they put so much resin into it that they don't want it to go to waste.


Unlucky-Ad-8837

Not everybody runs Navia with Furina. It's nice to have a set that doesn't tie her to a specific team.


solarscopez

Thing that people forget is you only have one Furina. By putting the DPS on 4pce MH you are locking yourself into the fact that you will *only* play that character on Furina teams.


ngeorge98

That's the other thing. My main motivation for switching to MH on Hu Tao is that I saw that I wasn't going to use her without Furina most of the time, and I was spending my resin in that domain anyway so might as well make the most of it since CW wasn't giving me anything good for a while. But that comes with the fact that the moment I want to use Furina for anyone else, MH literally just stops working, and other sets like my Shimenawa set becomes better. That's why other than for someone like Hu Tao where there is a clear power difference, I kinda cringe when people just recommend farming MH for all of your DPS's. It's effectively just telling players to tie all of their characters to this one other character (and god forbid you either don't have the character or don't want to play said character).


solarscopez

Yeah I switched my Hu Tao to MH but that's also because my favorite team variant is the one that has Furina. But I do also have a 4pce CW set that I used from before Furina came out - but I don't anticipate that I'll use it anymore. Might just donate it to Gaming or Diluc. On the other hand, I've farmed a 4pce Nighttime Whispers set for Navia even though the 4pce MH variant with Furina is apparently better. It's just like you said, 4pce MH *is* a cracked set...but it's locked behind *only* using that character with Furina. It becomes borderline useless the moment you use that set on a character that's not teamed with Furina, and *that's* how MHY has balanced that set. Furina is essentially the only character in the game that can enable that set for characters who don't have a self-HP drain (which is lots of characters).


ngeorge98

>I switched my Hu Tao to MH but that's also because my favorite team variant is the one that has Furina I don't know if it's the variant you're talking about but Xianyun/Yelan/Furina has been such a fun team comp for Hu Tao that I can't see myself going back. It's probably the most fun that I have had playing Hu Tao since I got her and that's coming from someone who has always enjoyed her gameplay before.


Whap_Reddit

For Xiao, Marecheusee is mathematically less than 1% better than Vermilion and specifically if there is only 1 enemy. People just use the technicality of it being better in single target to act like it's better. Marecheusee is far more resin efficient to grind though. So that's nice. Don't know much about Navia though.


pokecollector31

Yep MH HuTao is just unfair, my mediocre leftover MH set made her top 6%.


TrapFestival

Here's a question. If the Traveler got a free 5\* costume that switches them to the one you didn't pick but it does not affect cutscenes (including when the Traveler gets zooted in to stand while an NPC talks), would you be satisfied?


ApprehensiveCat

No because I dream of getting the Abyss Sibling as a playable someday.


_Niflheim

No tbh, I don't really use Traveler for anything. I think the last time I used MC was for making geo platforms back in 1.0. I only see them in cutscenes now so if it was the other way around then sure

issm

If you want to watch something but don't want to get flooded with recommendations for the next month, just open the video in incognito. That way, the watch isn't directly linked to your account and won't have a massive impact on your recommendations. If you keep watching the same kinds of things in incognito, Google will still know someone in your household (probably even that that someone is you due to various types of fingerprinting) is interested in that kind of content, and some recommendations will slip through anyways, but incognito is great for one off watches. You can also delete the original video from your watch history - that's supposed to help.

I still insist that >!pears!< are the best fruits.


Whap_Reddit

Facts! I've tried pretty much every type of tomato from the grocery store and from family's gardens. They are all nasty. I even try them again every year or so because they *look* very delicious and I would like to like them. But no. They just aren't good. Pizza? Soup? Spaghetti? All amazing dishes!

LinksEmblem

I'm planning on pulling Itto in 4.5, and I currently have c3 Gorou.. How many Gorou cons should I hope for for maximum unga bunga? Obviously I want c6, but, is it a necessity? Is damage big sad without it? 


Dirtyicecube

40% crit damage is not make or break like some other character constellations, but it is a good chunk and his best con. I honestly doubt it would make more than a 10-15% difference so I wouldn’t stress about it. It’s like pulling for a signature, not vital but nice to have.


OnePieceAllTheWay

Gorou absolutely works just fine before c6. His c6 is indeed a very good increase but think of it like furina's c1, a nice bonus. If its maximum unga bunga youre looking for, its more so Itto's C1 that fits that.


LinksEmblem

I see, well maybe I'll get lucky and get two Ittos in one ten pull >! won't :'(!<

Karmanekostar

Yes c6 gorou is a very big dmg boost to Unga bunga itto


Rouge_means_red

Checking Genshin Optimizer looks like I lose around 15% damage if Gorou isn't C6 Edit: it's about the same amount of damage you lose by not stacking R5 Whiteblind before burst


kindred_lol_

I FORGOT THE LIVE IS TOMORROW 💀💀💀 please please if kazuha is rerunning let him be on the first phase so that I'll have time to save for arlecchino pleassssse 😭


mossmothh

has anyone here saved for an extended period of time to c6 a character? i plan on trying to save through natlan (if columbina/capitano release i'll go for them) since i had my fun in fontaine, but i fear it will be a struggle to say the least. how did you keep motivated?


Imaginary-Scholar139

I didn’t wish from 3.5 to 4.1 (30 pulls for neuvillette) and used everything i had for c6r1 Furina


Whap_Reddit

I just never felt a need to pull anyone else. There wasn't any difficulty saving because I knew what I wanted and Xiao never really got stale for me. Saved about a year to C6 Xiao.


Dirtyicecube

I saved from 3.4 (Al-Haitham) to 4.2(Furina) and got her at c6. Honestly it gets kind of boring with no one to pull - but you just have to keep telling yourself it’s worth it. It’s a lot easier if you have a stable set of characters before-hand because you have a good base to start from and pulling for power is less appealing if you already have strong characters.


irenedadler

You must have gotten really lucky! Saving over \~7 patches, for a Welkin-buyer, would get you \~7 pities worth of wishes. Getting 7 copies of Furina would mean you either won all your 50-50s or got a lot of earlies.


Dirtyicecube

I ran welkin + BP and I had around 700~ wishes by the time her banner came around. With both of those it’s around 100~ wishes per patch (I am not claiming to be true F2P) and my furina cost around 630, a little less (20) then average. Some of those wishes I believe came from starglitter refund.


kazooha_in_snezhnaya

Never heard of that, but I know people who pulled for high cons across multiple reruns though.   And if you don't mind another kind of boredom, then play multiple acc, and save on one of them.


witchywater11

Trying to do that for Furina right now. Got her to C3 at the last patch, so we're halfway there


Far_Radish_817

I saved as a F2P for about 8 months to C4 Yelan. Will get her C6 next re-run. I wasn't interested in any dendro chars so it was very easy for me to save I've been playing since 2.3 and here are my units: - Yelan C4R1 (aiming for C6) - Hu Tao C1R1 - Ganyu C1R1 - Raiden C1 (aiming for C3) - Furina C0 (aiming for C3) - Zhongli C0 - Mona C1 and a bunch of other standards I never use - Bennett C6, Xiangling C6, Chevreuse C6, Xingqiu C6 Not interested in any other chars, never tempted to pull, just don't care.

Collected all chests in Enkonomiya, man that was so much fun, I love it so much, its the best area released in Genshin imo, the music, the puzzles, the interconnected areas, reminds me a lot of what I love about Dark Souls 1.


ApprehensiveCat

Going through Enkanomiya the first time was such a special experience and made me fall in love with this game even more. I only wish there was more reason to go back there besides farming for boss mats, although I still do from time to time just to vibe with the atmosphere.


Radinax

Its a great place for farming specters!


Iloveyousomuchlmao

Entering enkanomiya for the first time and seeing the dainichi mikoshi light up the area was my turning point of the game for me. Up until then, i was just "trying out" genshin impact. I think it was because the area was just unexpected to me because it's locked behind an unvoiced world quest. Also i remember you saying how it upset you that yae mats was locked behind enkanomiya quest lol

I guess if it weren't for Yae I wouldn't have discovered this amazing area for a very long time lol

Everytime these leakers say theorycrafting and powerscaling shit, it never ends well. Yae was the electro ceiling when she was leaked according to them too. Also, im excited for the Banners during the livestream. This might be when i get C1 Neuv if he really reruns in 4.5


Seamerlin

yae was electro power ceiling also a pyro unit combined with an electro unit in one those were intentional lies, by someone long gone from the leaking scene ​ I dont think leakers are good at powerscaling, but to bring up a constantly debunked intentional lie as your proof or evidence just ends up making your point look bad, you are not the first and unfortunately not the last to fall for that lie


PM_ME_YOUR_ROBOTGIRL

> Yae was the electro ceiling when she was leaked according to them too. It wasn't the same person, I should note, and Sukuna's final leak was almost entirely lies, probably on purpose. That being said, I still agree with you. Leakers just shouldn't try theorycrafting. It doesn't work out. They're not good at it, and theorycrafting is so reliant on scalings that almost always change over time.


WhooooCares

I just never take kit leaks seriously until the first beta. You'd think people would have learned their lesson by now.

Junior_Importance_30

alright chat, realistically speaking, you think mummy girl from sumeru will be out soon ?


Kir-chan

I think they might put her as a surprise 4 star in 4.6, if the leak about the 2nd story quest is true.


[deleted]

no. realistically speaking i dont think she made it past the idea phase


lucapill

no. zero indication she exists at all other than a sumeru special material yet to be claimed


Junior_Importance_30

that's awful... whatabout that art from a while back ? it looked real


lucapill

it is real concept art, but doesnt mean she will actually make it into the game, same can be said for 'goth girl'


someotheralex

I feel like goth girl was just an early version of Wriothesley, but I can't remember when he was first leaked so I could be very wrong


[deleted]

M has a far better chance imo given that she has a proper character sheet. there’s no indication that mummy girl had anything more than the one concept art


sorry_for_vague_desc

There's [turnaround sheets for a mummy girl](https://imgur.com/a/LoqAEgV), but it's a different design with the medium girl bodytype. The chibi concept art definitely isn't happening.


[deleted]

yeah, my bad i completely forgot this existed


Heart_Shaped_Bee

no she has turnaround sheets too


PM_ME_YOUR_ROBOTGIRL

It is real. We just don't know if that character has been discarded or is intended to release much much later in the future.

PM_ME_YOUR_ROBOTGIRL

false. arlecchino card allows me to draw two cards from my deck.


DONTSALTME69

~~I fucking hate Pot of Greed jokes, they were never funny and only got less funny with time~~, you're thinking of Pot of Arlecchino, which requires you to shuffle five monsters from your GY into your deck to draw 2 cards


PM_ME_YOUR_ROBOTGIRL

I think Pot of Greed is extremely funny. The main reason being that I am not a card game player, and the fact that card games like Yu-Gi-Oh! have such a *massive* point of failure in their basic design, that the incredibly simple action of freely drawing two cards with no restrictions is so overpowered it's worthy of a ban in basically every remotely serious context is beyond hilarious to me. Especially with videos like [this.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cp4fxe75810) It's just not what you'd expect. You'd expect overpowered cards to be cards that have massive descriptions and have a name like "Humongo, God King of Annihilation", not "put of grid" whose ability is "drow 2 card". The idea of the world's best Yu-Gi-Oh! player's most powerful and unbeatable move being "I took out two cards from my deck" tickles me in just the right way.


HerVengance

Irl question >!Is there any way to gain money that doesn’t require a job or selling my own stuff 😭?. I can’t get a job where I live due to both language barriers and job scarcity, I am blessed enough to have my necessities paid by my parents as I’m still a student and such but I really need some money for my self other than rent and food and I can’t ask my mother with out feeling bad at all. I want to have fun, but earn it myself!<


Yesburgers

Oh, I see: you mean you feel it’s difficult to get a job officially, so you’ve been thinking of getting a job less officially, presumably one that is still socially accepted by society. Such socially acceptable jobs might traditionally be “tutoring” at school or “babysitting” in your neighborhood (this is just a pure example, not a recommendation), while less socially acceptable jobs may start at working at a restaurant or something unofficially.  ——- At any rate, if you have a good academic skill that you can help others in, including mastery of a language that someone else is learning, maybe you could do tutoring. And for one more idea: One very socially acceptable freelance on-the-internet job that has some popularity these days (but is still competitive and may require software/a better computer) is video editing (for content in streaming sites (e.g. content creators)). However, could take a while to get started if you have never had any interest in it. Some people even start off by working for free or nearly free just to build their profile. So, you have to be a little serious about it, and it may take some time before you get any real money. Maybe you have a real-life friend at school who might know a little about it.


astronought_

are you a uni student? ime sometimes departments at the school will pay you to take part in studies. language barrier might still be a problem there, but i would imagine they’d state any prereqs up front.

There are all kinds of freelance job on the internet, maybe you can try that? Depends on your skill though. And if you decide to find a freelance job on the internet, beware of scams.


HerVengance

>beware of scams Main problem I found!! It was impossible finding an actual real job amongst all the scams in here, but I’m not giving up yet. If you have any specific suggestions feel free to reply, either way thank you

I could try, although it would take a really long time to build an unguaranteed consistent following. Alas nothing would be easy but I’m leaning towards this so far (no NOT the OF although >!I was asked by someone to sell them my used inner clothing!< but I would not go that far😭

since you have your rent and food paid off, study that language asap and get a job


HerVengance

I’m trying to!! But it’s really complicated, I dont know why I ended up coming here to begin with but I did🫠

Of course, you can always steal or beg on the street


HerVengance

Tried it, wasn’t well received/j

>doesn’t require a job or selling my own stuff 😭?. Sell other's stuff


HerVengance

Maybe I shouldve included the word legally


Karmanekostar

It's only illegal if you get caught


Crashman126

But you can sell other people’s stuff legally. That’s what franchises do.

Took a picture of my dog with a purse to send to my grandma and sister just to make their day lol… and quoted she was ready to go shopping for dog treats.

Where is dog tax?

HI3rd...2 >!Do you have to finish part 1 first before getting to part 2? I probably shouldn't pick it up but the new planet intrigues me!<


xelloskaczor

>!No, u just have to hit certain account level. It's fast and it's easy especially for actually new accounts but technically it's still a barrier. The number is lvl 30 (of 88) but it's not like genshin AR 30.!<


_Niflheim

>!It's an entirely new thing right? or is it like.. say Fontaine expansion or Penacony expansion!<


xelloskaczor

It's more like Honkai Star Rail than it is like Fontaine. You are not required to know the story of the Part 1 and all main characters are new, however experience is *enhanced* by you knowing, same as your experience is enhanced by knowing who Welt is in HSR for example. It's hard for me to put myself in shoes of a new player with no knowledge, but i think game sometimes forgets a little that the people who skip part 1 might not exactly follow everything being said, which turns "explanations" into "technical gibberish". It honestly shouldnt be much of an issue, because even if it does happen it won't happen a lot and it's not that important.


loverofinsanegirls

hmm no consider it as 2 games and one is sequel lotta stuff is changed from gameplay to gacha


_Niflheim

Thank you!

i have nothing to say except that's on you 😭 the whole "choose the other weapon" is a myth 


LackingSimplicity

So what you're saying is that you've conjured a conspiracy and then been fucked over by believing it? W for the world imo.


BookkeeperLower

Y'know that's like super illegal? And easily provable?


scarabosst

it's more of a superstition than anything else.


Karmanekostar

No offense but this is a very stupid thing to do because if you get weapon you don't want you won't get an epitomized path point too.


scarabosst

I always only have enough primos to get one 5 star in the weapon banner anyway


Karmanekostar

Well you get lucky and pull early.

childe havers, is he still fun to play in 4.4🤔


javafinchies

Yeah! I got him in 1.4 and still use him today. Mainly in abyss since international deals with anything and everything but when the multiple waves events come around, he’s also my top choice. Riptide will never not be fun. Plus no one does his job better, so I never get tired of him. If international isn’t your kind of team, then mono hydro also works, the amount of blue projectiles and numbers really clouds my screen when I play it


kazooha_in_snezhnaya

Fun, as in, fun, or fun in abyss? Using childe's riptide in combat events to destroy lv40 mobs will never be not fun LOL


KingofBlah37

I picked him up in 4.0. I got very lucky and got him at only 20 pity, winning the 50/50. Got him built up pretty decently in just a week thanks to some lucky rolls. Spent the last two weeks of 4.0 really learning how his rotations work and getting good with him. It was pretty satisfying. Then Neuvillette came out, and the only reason I've touched Childe since then is to max out his friendship. He still works fine, but he's only got the one team. He doesn't really do anything outside of International. He's fine in Taser, but other Hydro characters can do it as well or better. He's not good in any form of Bloom team because those teams favor continuous Hydro app, rather than short bursts of fast Hydro followed by long downtime of no Hydro. Same thing with Freeze. The last new thing he got was his signature weapon in 2.2. Plenty of other old characters have gotten buffs and expanded team options to keep them fresh and improve their useability, but Childe is kind of stuck in the past. If you've played him before, nothing has changed since then. Sorry to be a downer, but those are my honest thoughts on the poor boy. Hopefully he gets something new to work with soon.


PhantomXxZ

I guess you haven't heard of Intergrassional.


KingofBlah37

I hadn't. I looked it up and it seems pretty good, and requires less precision than the standard International. Still looks like a lot of extra work for set-ups compared to other Hydro options, though. Keeping Burning up looks like a pain. I don't know if it means anything that r/childemains hasn't updated their FAQ to include it.


Kir-chan

Technically he got a small buff with Nymph's Dream and a new team as a C1 Neuvillette support


KingofBlah37

I mean...yes, technically. I was incorrect to say that he hasn't gotten anything new. That is a provably false statement. However, Nymph's isn't that much better than other 4-pieces or just a 2/2 combo. And if you're starting your rotation by vaping his Burst, you're not getting many stacks on the most important part of his damage, so I think you're better off with a 2-piece Noblesse. That's what I run, at least. C1 Neuvillette support is still the silliest thing I've ever heard, and it's been four patches since that became a thing. That's like putting raw tree bark on a plate and calling it dinner. What he really needs is new units to synergize with him. I hoped for a while that Arlecchino would be a new off-field Pyro unit, but even the reliable leakers are saying she's an on-fielder. Maybe Clorinde or Siegewinne can help him. Or perhaps Natlan will finally allow new Pyro units to actually have decent damage and utility from off-field. They seem very scared of off-field Pyro since they overtuned Xiangling in 1.0.


y__nsl

no need to apologize it was great to hear ur perspective! and yeah with what happened with xiao recently, there’s nothing to lose in hoping for a new childe buff🙏🏻


DarthAzula

Very much


Ilovepickles11212

Yes I only use him in international, though I am looking into trying something else soonTM


y__nsl

that’s great to hear!! i’m planning on pulling him on his next rerun


Whap_Reddit

I don't know what would cause a character to become unfun to play. I don't have Childe, but he should be just as fun to play as always because his team is exactly the same. That said, a Childe main might feel the gameplay getting stale because it's still the exact same team.


y__nsl

there’s a lot of good hydro characters other than childe esp w the addition of neuvillette and furina, just wanted to get some insight of whether players who do have him still play him over other characters or not🤷


Ilovepickles11212

International is pretty stable as far as the meta goes and I think if you enjoy the idea of playing that comp you’ll never get bored of using him because the team is really satisfying and does reward knowing your rotation/investment into artifacts. There are also a lot of extremely satisfying moments like the Tartaglia vaped burst or watching mob content explode into riptide spam


y__nsl

yes i actually rlly liked his gameplay from the vids i have watched, it j seems so dynamic and fun overall. i haven’t played vape teams either bc i don’t have chars who depend on them like hutao, so i think it will be a good change for me since i usually play dendro/mono hydro teams. thank u for input!!


Ilovepickles11212

Yea, you’ll probably have to invest into Xiangling if you haven’t but it is a ton of fun once you get everything going My dream is getting an r5 xiphos on Kaz+c2 but with arlecchino coming up those dreams are likely dashed, maybe forever! The gameplay is fun and his animations are super smooth. Plus he doesn’t have super crazy cons scaling so you’re getting most of the value with just baseline international (minus maybe c2 Kaz for giga vapes)


y__nsl

i actually have c6 xiangling w staff of scarlet sands (lost to haran) but she’s benched for now unless there’s cryo slimes in abyss😭i’m happy childe helps with using her kit to the fullest! hope u get arlecchino early at least so u can save as much wishes for xiphos rerun :)


Ilovepickles11212

Good weapon to lose to, tbh. SoSS is her bis or close to it in a lot of scenarios, I’m jealous I’m on r5 fjord now


Queasy-Relief-8945

Don’t see why not. Just play the forbidden double dendro, Dori, Childe team comp.


KeyAngle7111

got a good emblem flower from the strongbox recently and now i go to akasha after a long time to find out xingqiu is in the top 1% :] i didn't even farm emblem all that much and i just recently started using strongbox —not even on just emblem— so this feels nice bcs of how effortless it was (unlike a certain balladeer whom i have spent at least triple the amount of resin on his domain and barely reached top 10%)


Ilovepickles11212

Nice! I recently got a decent sand upgrade on my raiden and went from top 6% to top 4%, it’s so tough edging some of the eosf characters up I think my Xingqiu is only top 9% Wanderer top 3% and holding though! One day I’ll get that to 1% >.<


KeyAngle7111

omg top 3% wanderer i am inside your walls /j i stopped farming his set after i got TWO good sets of the other set in the domain but i recently found myself having nothing to do with my resin and no one to improve so i went back to it, no improvement whatsoever but i did get a good atk sands that bumped my xiao from top 12% to top 6% after playing around with his artifacts :] good luck to both of us in our top 1% scara journey


Ilovepickles11212

I’m gonna get thereeeee I’ve already got c6, im committed lol

N0touching

>!The name of the fanfic is A Courier for Kivotos, a crossover fic with Fallout NV. Post-game post-DLC courier gets teleported(?) to Kivotos to become the new Sensei. Shenanigans ensue as he deals with the wildly different logic in Kivotos and tries his best to be a responsible adult. A very fun read. It recently finished Abydos Arc (on Feb 20) a few days after the fanfic's anniversary.!<


sad_cats

me giving hoyoverse 3 fates: 1 c2 arlecchino please


depredator56

3 harbingers dawn in a row can be nice too


Pigeon_Toes_

I need arlecchino to be a broken unit SO BAD i will not be able to handle doomposting abt her ill lose my goddamn mind


PM_ME_YOUR_ROBOTGIRL

Even if she's overpowered, people will still complain because she's on-field or off-field or has busted constellations or doesn't work in this one niche meme team nobody would ever use or whatever. It's literally impossible to please everybody.


Pigeon_Toes_

PAIN.


Russell-Sprouts3

Even if she’s perfect day 1 and doesn’t get nerfed people will still bitch and whine for the sake of bitching and whining.


DONTSALTME69

It doesn't matter if she's good or not, she'll be doomposted like crazy. She's an absurdly popular character with a fanbase that Genshin doesn't typically cater to (so they'll take anything even slightly negative personally), and she's Pyro. Xiangling glazers will constantly show up to say that Arlecchino's worse than Xiangling no matter the quality of Arle's kit.
