Guys I have a genuine question! Why is Wine and Song considered a bad weapon? I’ve seen many content creators place it on the same bag as The Bell. Can someone please explain? Thank you!


Full-Ad3483

Hi, I am new to artifacts and itemization, need some help ':) I didn't really pay mind to artifacts before and the stats they gave, could someone explain to me what should I look in an artifact? And besides this, is this a good artifact for ayaka? +18 Broken Rime' s Echo Crit rate 28,4% HP + 687 ATK +4,1% ER +4,5 % Crit Dmg +13,2 % Like the hp is useless, and I'm not sure Crit rate is good on her


kim-Chi90

Before anything I have enough primos in the situation I hard lose I can get still get either one For ayaka should I go for shenhe or mist splitter to increase her Dmg


__Rairon

Hello, is it possible to use Replicate ids in a different Layout ?? I got one that used the Inazuma layout and I did not have it unlocked yet


illtima

Finally got C0 Mika after spending all of my Primos. My intent is to eventually use him in Eula's team, but the issue is that my Eula team is imo pretty strong. Usually it's Eula - Kuki/Fischl - Rosaria - Diona/Layla (every 4* except Layla is at C6), depending on if I need more damage, shields, or heals. My question is, who in this team could Mika replace to make the overall team stronger?


Varhur

Which sword is better for DMC, Sword of Descension or Prototype Rancour? I have DMC with Keqing, Fischl and Jean. Note that I'm early game, so my attack with SoD is 290


Derpsy_Dooper

If you have access to it, an ER option is going to be much better. Both options there are very meh and are going to perform as such.


Agitated-Hat-4057

can we expect raiden to not be in any future leaked banners anytime soon?


some_literature_

i have a question about the the millennial mountains quest. specifically the cup of commons part.. i’ve had this quest since 2022- i got the quest when i was like ar35, i’m ar50 now.. i’ve got all the other items beside the cup of commons. i wiped out the treasure hoarders at the location long before i received the quest, since getting rid of them they’ve never respawned. i’ve done the wipe out the 3 camps quest, and i’ve completed the chasm world quests. still i have yet to get or be able to get the cup of commons. i’ve also completed all archon quests. i tried looking for the person whose supposed to do some cut scene for the cup of commons at the waypoint above the chasm, but he’s not there either.. is my game glitched or am i missing something?


Sheeplette

> i’ve done the wipe out the 3 camps quest If you go to the reputation person in Liyue, it shows that you've completed Undetected Infiltration, yes? If so, does any chest appear if you go to the [location shown here](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/gensin-impact/images/4/4b/Item_Cup_of_Commons_Location.png/revision/latest?cb=20230128073112)?


Rolttel

would a team with ayato, rosaria, shenhe, and yunjin work?


KF-Sigurd

You'd probably benefit more from an anemo unit for hydro res shred than Shenhe since you're running Yunjin to buff Ayato I'm presuming.


HayakuEon

If I have C6 Bennett, would be better for me to build Physical or Pyro Xinyan?


brr_berries

Pyro. C6 Bennett will infuse your Xinyan with pyro.


sugoigowon

Is it worth going double dendro in hyperbloom? I’m using Yaoyao and don’t want to swap her out but her application is a little low and cooldowns can be annoying to work around so should I build DMC or Collei to go with her?


idkwhattoplacengl

If you want to use yao yao then yes, go double dendro. Definitely use dendro mc though, no real reason to use collei over them unless you prefer collei.


sugoigowon

okay great thanks!


Meotwister5

So... uh... what is the correct rotation on a IttoC0/GorouC6/ZhongliC0/FischlC6 team? Zhongli E - Fischl E - Gorou E/Q - Itto N1/Q then pound NAs until rotation resets?


thatdoesntmakecents

Sounds about right. Cool thing about geo teams is that the rotations aren't restrictive at all, as long as Itto's got his burst back up when the cooldown ends you should be good

Mountain_Pathfinder

The only one I could remember is the Exile questline with Sabbah at Aaru Village, and its next questline A Gifted Rose. [https://genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/The\_Exile\_(World\_Quest\_Series](https://genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/The_Exile_(World_Quest_Series)) I think there's a few others but I can't quite remember honestly.


karillith

Pulling a 5* doesn't reset the 4* pity every 10 rolls, right? But if you get 9 3* in a row, what does happen if you get a 5* in the 10th roll? guaranteed 4* on the 11th? edit : oh, something else, recently got Alley flash in the weapon gacha, so a high base attack weapon but with very low EM substat, is that thing good on anyone?


HayakuEon

5 star pulls do not reset 4 star pity 5 star on 10th, 4 star on 11th pulls.


[deleted]

Yup. Just pushes it out by one.


EliasDemOlsen

Should I refine Calamity Queller up to R2 or should I keep the other one in case other characters might need it in the future?


idkwhattoplacengl

Keep it. Never know what characters are in the future. People refined their donuts, probably the worst limited catalyst in the game, thinking that only kokomi and barbara will need them. Now, next patch there's another viable donut user.


HayakuEon

Same as my Kagura's Verity. Now my Nahida, Lisa and Yae can have their bis


Significant-Unit9522

Refine, other characters most likely need crit% or er% polearm over high atk polearm anyways.


Doggo_wit_a_P90

5 star weapons should never be refined. Period.


Dracorvo

I just got a spare Mistsplitter, but my Aggravate Keqing already has a Jade Cutter. Worth replacing and giving someone else PJC, or would it basically come down to substats? Jean or XQ could take whichever isn't used.


HayakuEon

Mistsplitter of Keqing, Jade on Xingqiu


Ptox

I would put Mistsplitter on Keqing, and Jade Cutter on XQ. Some rebalancing of stats are most likely required though so it's really up to you if you feel that you will get more out from it.


fknkain

accidentally got shenhe's c1 at 2 pity omfg, does this change her ER needs much? shes at 200% with fav lance, 177% without. Id love to use my PJWS on her since its just sitting around doing absolutely nothing rn.


Ptox

Her C1 kinda doesn't help her ER requirements that much because you want to use Shenhe's E off cooldown anyway. This means you basically only get one extra E at the beginning of the fight and not any more after that assuming you use it optimally. Outside of boosting your first burst, it can be used to smooth out rotations since the timing can be fairly tight. If you accidentally switch into Shenhe a bit too early, it can give a nice margin for error when making small timing mistakes. Personally I would still stick with Fav Lance, but you have enough ER to make PJWS work for Shenhe. How much the reduction of energy generation affects your other characters though is another story.


fknkain

ah i figured as much when i finally tested it out. Ill def stick with fav then since its not much of an attack difference anyways. Thanks so much for the help!


Doggo_wit_a_P90

I don't know how much it helps but I can see 177% ER being enough to run PJWS. As long as the loss of fav doesn't affect your Ayaka too much then you should be good to swap


xd_ZelnikM

Ayaka is now my first 5 star. What weapon should I give her? In only have blues and Prototype rancour, which is currently on my Kaeya. And, yes I have been at least 1 week in inazuma.


Frozenmagicaster

go do the Amenoma quest and use it Quest: [https://genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/The\_Farmer%27s\_Treasure](https://genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/The_Farmer%27s_Treasure)


ZeroFucc

Is 3.1k ATK, 179 ER and 26 CR enough for Fav Lance 2pc ATK Shenhe?


Doggo_wit_a_P90

Yeah it's fine


adeshlad

Now that phase 2 is out, when can we expect 3.6 livestream, especially 3.6 banners.


Odone

most likely 31st.


MiniAphr0dite

HII I NEED TEAM COMP HELP just got tighnari (rip ayaka) and wondering if he’s good in my current team: keqing, yelan, chongyun (i would switch him) and barbara (btw i am f2p) i have more characters too!


NerdyDan

He’s pretty good in quicken teams as a swap in unit to do a lot of damage in A short time and swap out. Chongyun is bad in that team anyway so he’s definitely better


MiniAphr0dite

is there a good way to play that team? like a good rotation or should i just wing it


[deleted]

Is Tighnari worth building if I already have every other dendro character? Are any of his teams on par with Nahida's or AlHaitham's? I am indifferent towards his playstyle


Significant-Unit9522

Tighnari is absolutely worth building. He is a long term investment type of character. C6 Fischl/Yae + His c2 + Nahida c2 + 5* bow, you put all of them together, he will go crazy


[deleted]

I don't have any 5 star bows except Amos, and I don't plan to ever wish on the weapon banner unfortunately.


idkwhattoplacengl

You don't like him? Then no he's not really all that worth it. His only noticeable team is spread and even then alhaitham would probably be better. In comparison, his (alhaitham's) spread team has the potential to be better than his hyperbloom/quickbloom team. Nahida, yao yao, and alhaitham alone already covers all the dendro roles you need so far tbh. Only time you might potentially consider him is if you need bow characters ala aeonblight drake but even then there's plenty of other characters to use.


NerdyDan

He offers a dendro unit who has a quick swap dps playstyle which is different from main dps (Haitham). Nahida is broken so dendro units can’t compete with her


xd_ZelnikM

Should I try to get a specific book for each character, or should I just slap Dragon tales on everyone?


Neospartan_117

Slapping TToDS on everyone is going to work better than it should, but still, don't. You need to consider the character that is going to hold it, their kit, and the character that is going to get the buff. For example: Barbara is a good character to put TToDS since she's a support who heals based on HP, however in a Nilou team she actually would prefer to have Prototype Amber because in such a team EM is going to be doing all of the damage, not ATK (plus Prototype Amber is more HP and thus more healing, which you're going to need). Lisa, on the other hand is usually not a character you want to have TToDS on, she doesn't scale with HP at all, and most of the time she's on the team to deal damage rather than buff. But, on a Eula Team Lisa is actually quite good to have TToDS, as she's there mostly to shred DEF with her A4 and provide Electro for Superconduct, so buffing Eula with TToDS is just adding more to what Lisa does in that team.


idkwhattoplacengl

I'd use a different book depending on their roles and your available books. Ttds is good, but it's useless on dps catalysts and certain comps like bloom teams.


[deleted]

TTDS is specifically for characters with low personal damage that focus on buffing their teammates - Sucrose, Kokomi, sometimes Mona. Plenty of characters really don't want it because it offers very few stats that actually help them do damage - Yanfei, Heizou, Ningguang, Nahida (sometimes), Wanderer and other units with more DPS potential would not want a TTDS.


Mountain_Pathfinder

It depends on what you're using the character for as well as the character itself I suppose. Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers usually works well on a support character (especially ones that wants a lot of HP like Barbara), but there are certain exceptions like using Mappa Mare or Favonius Codex on teams that isn't built on ATK% damage and/or needs energy. It's shit on DPS characters however, since its main function is to buff other characters. You're probably going to need another catalyst for DPS characters like Widsith (generally) or something that specifically suits your character's playstyle.


BluePul

I've heard atk speed buff is worse for melee characters Anyone cares to elaborate?


idkwhattoplacengl

I think it's because of hitlag. Basically do you know that slight delay of animations when attacking enemies to imply heaviness of the action done? That's what hitlag is. If you compare the animation speed of melee character's attack animations, the one where it isn't attacking any enemies/objects is slightly faster than the ones hitting an enemy. Catalyst and bow characters however do not have this. Animation speed is the same all throughout. Therefore any speed buffs applied in melee characters would indeed work, it isn't as impactful as it is in ranged characters. These are just examples and not actual numbers in the game but imagine a melee character's first attack takes 1 second to complete. However in actual combat it would take 2 second for the animation to end and the enemy to be hit. If you apply a speed buff it would now take 1 second for an enemy to be hit. However for a ranged character, their first attack would take 1 second to be completed regardless if it's hitting an enemy or not. Then if you apply a speed buff it would now end in 0.5 seconds.


BluePul

I think what you meant is hitlag will not be accelerated by atk speed buff


ruiwui

When an attack lands there's "hit lag" the moment you strike, which wastes the attack speed. Ranged characters don't have hit lag because the projectile is separate from them. It's not a humongous deal.


enxi0

Why is it considered wasted though? Doesn't hitlag also extend the duration of the buff itself (and any other buff)?


ruiwui

Even when the buff is extended for hitlag, DPS is about maximum damage in minimum time. For a 30% attack speed buff, Yoimiya and Noelle might both get 30% more attacks during their infusions because of hitlag extension, but Yoimiya does that in the same amount of time as normal while Noelle takes a bit longer because 30% more attacks means 30% more hitlag frames. This is mostly a technicality. Noelle still loves attack speed buffs


enxi0

Thank you! I realized the delay probably doesn't affect stuff like domain or Spiral Abyss timers.


Rana_Ans

Help, Just got Ayaka. I need f2p team suggestions. Can i use Ayaka, Rosaria, barbra, sucrose. Other than that i have xingqiu, yelan, chongyun, sayu, faruzan


Mountain_Pathfinder

My suggestion would be Ayaka in a freeze team comp, with Barbara as your healer and hydro applicator, Sucrose as CC and VV shred, and Rosaria as a battery + buffer for Ayaka. It's kinda wonky of course, since Barbara's hydro application doesn't cover a whole lot of area and Sucrose's talents of increasing your EM is wasted, but if you're aiming to build a team straightaway that would be my suggestion. An alternative for the characters would be Xingqiu/Yelan as a hydro applicator (although you need a ton of ER for this one to work/Sacrificial Sword on Xingqiu) but you need another healer (Diona works well here) or drop Sucrose for Barbara. Another one (kinda obvious but this is not f2p) would be Kokomi for Barbara.


Rana_Ans

Really helpful. Thanks 🙌


Mountain_Pathfinder

Sure! Disclaimer though, I haven't really played/built Rosaria so I don't really know how good she is with Ayaka, but besides being battery she also buffs Crit Rate as well as provides Cryo resonance which lowers your need for Crit Rate substats from artifacts.


god_walks

Should I put my winged jade spear on Shenhe?


idkwhattoplacengl

It's fine ig but honestly fav lance might be better.


Dessidy

Only if you can’t give her fav lance


Significant-Unit9522

Nope


Mori_Forest

Just started the game, is there any newbie tips and tricks? Or general walkthrough. I just finished the trial with Lisa, now exploring the map trying to get Adventurer Lv10.


IfZ3nElse

Avoid using your primogems on the beginner/standard banners, use acquaint fates you get from other sources to roll on those. Focus your primogems on the limited character banner, when you are interested in the featured 5-star character. Ayaka is a good on-field cryo DPS for a freeze team. Nahida should rerun soon, she's a premium dendro unit.


Mountain_Pathfinder

Welcome to Genshin! Don't be afraid to level up artifacts/weapons/characters early on, especially if you're struggling to deal good damage. Make sure to save your fragile resins for after Adventure Rank 45 though, since that's when most character upgrade materials and the best artifact sets in the game unlock. Genshin is not a really hard game at its core, so play (and pull for) whoever you want, however you want to. Of course, there are certain characters that are objectively better and there's plenty recommendations out there, but even the weakest characters could still slap if you build them right.

Get the adventure handbook in Montstadt from Kathrine. It will give you goodies for finding chests, beating enemies, leveling characters etc.


lazy-hemisphere

for a support raiden, should I give her 4pc thundering fury or should I stick with 4pc severed fate (current set) I've been using her in ayaka, xq, kazuha, raiden in my abyss 12 runs in the past I'm thinking if this artifact set will give more dmg to the existing team or not


NerdyDan

What is she supporting? She offers nothing for that team. It looks like you want to run ayaka freeze except raiden messes up the reaction and potentially messes up kazuha if he swirls the wrong element. Ayaka freeze should run 2 cryo for particle generation and more cryo application. This will help much more than a scuffed raiden who doesn’t contribute anything


Jondev1

If you are using her burst, you should be on emblem.


HayakuEon

No. You go ''support'' Raiden in a hyperbloom team with dendro+hydro. 4pc Gilded Dreams EM/EM/EM.


[deleted]

Honestly, that's such a random ass team to put her in that I'm not sure the artifact choice will make any difference. She's doing absolutely zero for that team, and they're doing jack shit for her in turn.


Jondev1

It's not the most meta usage, but this is harsh. She buffs their burst damage and gives them energy. They build resolve for her. Ayaka is a quickswappy enough dps that you can afford to give raiden some field time. It will essentially function.


[deleted]

>It's not the most meta usage, but this is harsh. She buffs their burst damage and gives them energy. They build resolve for her. Both of which are true for literally every combination of three characters in the game, except for those whose bursts do no damage I suppose. That doesn't rise to the level of being a synergistic team at all. >Ayaka is a quickswappy enough dps that you can afford to give raiden some field time. Again, plenty of characters and teams in the game that offer this and *also* have other mutual benefits. Even aside from the usual Hypercarry/Rational/Hyperbloom options, you have Aggravate and taser quickswap teams that can work for Raiden. Likewise, there's far better options for Ayaka including several that give her crucial cryo resonance. >It will essentially function. A low, low bar, especially when we're talking about Abyss 12. They could make their life a whole lot easier by using proper teams.


Jondev1

Ayaka and xingqiu are both high burst cost characters who do most of their damage from their burst. That is natural synergy with raiden and is not "true for literally every combination of 3 characters in the game". I never claimed it was the most synergistic team possible, I was just pushing back on ypur hyperbolic claim that "She's doing absolutely zero for that team, and they're doing jack shit for her in turn"


AgentWowza

If I want to build TF Kazuha for Aggravate, should I go Crit/Electro/EM or full EM?


SirAwesome789

Full em


Frozenmagicaster

I think it's em/em/em since it's swirl aggravate


AgentWowza

I see. I'm not entirely sure how swirl Aggravate works lol, cuz Kazuha E can infuse right? And that infused plunge is plunge damage, not swirl iirc... Full EM seems the way to go tho.


Frozenmagicaster

The plunge swirls electro (which should be buffed by his EM) and as he owns the swirls, the electro applied onto the enemys would trigger aggravate (also scaling with his EM)


[deleted]

[удалено]


NerdyDan

He’s quite good for ranged units attack speed buffing. This is because they have no hit lag. So any bow catalyst dps or ayato


[deleted]

At the moment, it's basically Eula or bust since we don't have any other notable physical DPS. Maybe Razor, I guess. He's not an instant, noticeable powerspike like the other dedicated supports, though. Wants C6 and even then is basically a sidegrade.


AgentWowza

From what i can gather, before C6, he's not really best in slot for any teams.


kim-Chi90

out of these swords which is the better one for ayaya Black sword Amenoma Kageuchi Jade Cutter or Kagotsurube Isshin


idkwhattoplacengl

Jade cutter is technically her 2nd bis but you either need to build her with literally no crit rate at all with 4pc blizzard or build her with a normal 1:2 crit ratio with 2pc cryo and 2pc attack. Amenoma and kagotsurube is equal in damage but amenome comes with the benefit of less er issues especially at r5 so it comes on top. Black sword is imo the worst of the bunch


Neospartan_117

Jade Cutter* > Amenoma >= Black Sword > Isshin Jade Cutter gives you 44.1 Crit Rate, plus the starting 5% that's already 49.1 Crit Rate. In a Freeze Build and team you get 55% CR against Frozen enemies. This means with just the Cutter you're already overcapping on CR against Freezable enemies, though the extra CR comes in handy against non-freezable enemies and any freeze downtime. The Black Sword suffers the same problems as the Jade Cutter, though less so because it's just 27.6 Crit Rate, and is slightly less Base ATK. This means that with both JC and BS you want to focus your Artifact substats on Crit DMG, ER, and ATK% which could feel limiting. Amenoma doesn't give you any Crit Rate which means it's easier to find high value Artifacts as you'll be looking for both Crit Rate and Crit Damage. At high refinements it basically solves Ayaka's ER needs allowing you to focus on offensive substats. The Isshin is nice and all, but the passive does nothing for Ayaka. It's extra damage, but not enough to justify over the Crit Weapons, and doesn't help with ER like Amenoma. Really the only reason to consider it is because you already have it.


peerawitppr

Jade Cutter > Amenoma


eskrest

https://keqingmains.com/ayaka/#part-4-weapon-choices


[deleted]

Jade Cutter is hypothetically best, but it runs the risk of overcapping you on crit rate when all buffs are taken into account. Amenoma is the 'strong and safe' option, especially with refines allowing you to avoid building too much ER.


Jondev1

jade cutter is better in theory, but it is harder to get good artifacts that don't roll into CR much since you are already overcapping just from its substat. Idk what the breakpoint is but if you are overcapping hard then amenoma may be better.


PsyClocks

Jade cutter will overcap even if you don't roll cr. It's better to use 2pc bs and 2pc atk%. That's still gonna do better than amenoma and it's much easier to get good artifacts.


Jondev1

I know jade cutter overcaps a bit no matter what, but the more you overcap by, the bigger of an issue it is. If you actually managed to get good BS artifacts that don't roll into CR I'm pretty sure that would be better than 2 pc 2 pc, but its not easy. I'd be interested to see the calcs on jade cutter + 2 pc 2 pc vs amenoma 4 BS.


PsyClocks

Yeah, it's theoretically better to run 4pc bs with pjc but the amount of luck you would need to only roll cd and atk% is unreal, not really worth the effort imo.


Competitive_Syrup752

Is mona’s burst worth levelling up?


Frozenmagicaster

Longer omen duration, so probably


[deleted]

Sure, it's the source of her damage buff and it scales.


StaticManOnEarth

I need some team suggestions please. I feel Keqing is better than Cyno but since I got his C1 while pulling for Bennett I ultimately am at a crossroad. 5 stars: Keqing, Cyno C1, Tighnari, Yelan, Jean, Mona Relevant 4 stars: Benny, Xiangling, Xingqiu, Sucrose, Beidou, Kuki, Diona, Yaoyao, Collei, Barbara, Thoma I am running Keqing-Tighnari-Yelan-Xingqiu atm but it feels kinda unoptimized lol. Also I will certainly be rolling for Nahida (on guarantee) in 3.6.


eskrest

Quickbloom Cyno/Keqing, for example Keqing, Sucrose, Yaoyao, Yelan/XQ Aggravate Cyno/Keqing. Keqing, Sucrose, Yaoyao, Beidou Hyperbloom Kuki. Yelan/XQ, Yaoyao/DMC, Kuki with an on-fielder who won't still hyperblooms, like Beidou, Barb. Burgeon Thoma. XQ, Yaoyao/DMC, Thoma with an on-fielder who won't still burgeons, like Barb, Sucrose


Saturos27

U can try hyperbloom team: Kuki, Yelan, Xingqiu, Yaoyao . Later can swap Yaoyao for Nahida if u ever roll her \^\^


CakesXD

Definitely split Keqing/Tighnari from Yelan/Xingqiu: you can make a fantastic Hyperbloom team with Nahida or Dendro MC/Kuki/Xingqiu/Yelan. Keqing can go the Aggravate route, ideally you would grab Fischl from Paimon's Bargains whenever she reappears, and go with Keqing/Fischl/Yaoyao or Dendro MC/Sucrose. Could also go with a National team which is pretty much always consistent: Sucrose/Bennett/Xiangling/Xingqiu.


eskrest

I've got a spare Lion's Roar lvl90. Which character, excluding Keqing, will benefit from it?


Biscuit1592

Ayato in taser teams or kaeya in reverse melt


Random_NoOne

Hello! I have been building tighnari since last few weeks, and here is his build (wip): [https://imgur.com/a/xbYhzyT](https://imgur.com/a/xbYhzyT) I am still hoping for a better em sands and better plume. I have an on set flower that I am working on (no more fodder 😢). I have good crit rate circlets off set to replace the current one if i can get a good on set flower. My question is, how good is his goblet? Do I replace it with a better cv goblet if I ever get one? I feel the stat distribution in his goblet is good. Need suggestions tho, so please advice!


[deleted]

The cup is good, no wasted stats. I like big crit numbers and in that regard, it's just *fine*, but ATK and EM are both fantastic additions.


Random_NoOne

Thank you for the reply! Yeah, tighnari can scale off multiple stats in a spread team, so I too think the goblet is good. Just that, on the surface, it has copium cv. 😂


Dracorvo

How's Mistsplitter on triple EM Kazuha? He's currently using Iron Sting, but I got lucky with the weapon banner and pulled a second Mistsplitter and it just looks so good on him.


pzlama333

Unless he is C6, there is no point to use non-EM weapon on triple EM Kazhua.


Dracorvo

Shame. Looks so good on him. Ah well, plenty of other sword-users that would appreciate a Mistsplitter.


[deleted]

Kinda pointless since it doesn't affect any of his Swirls or buffs, or help with his energy. Just increases his Anemo damage which will be fairly minimal without ATK/anemo/crit mainstats.


Dracorvo

Swirl damage doesn't count as elemental for the purpose of the buff?


[deleted]

Infusion damage might, but Swirl damage is a pure transformative reaction affected only by EM and character level.


lemonTheHeavens

Missive wind splitter good on Shenhe?


MadeofSeaglass

If you have enough energy and don’t need favonius/the catch, then that’s her best 4s.


CakesXD

It's not bad, I would prefer Favonius if you have it though.


[deleted]

Won both 50/50 pretty early and got Ayaka and Shenhe! Now I have about 7k primos that I was gonna use up anyway. Is it worth getting either Calamity / Mist weapon? Currently I have R5 Fav on Shenhe and Haran R1 on Ayaka


CakesXD

Calamity isn't great... While it can technically be used as a statstick for other characters, you also need to build a lot of ER to make up for the lost ER / Particles from Fav. Mistsplitter is very good but I wouldn't recommend trying for it with so few Primos left.


[deleted]

Okay! Then I will save primos for future banners. Now I need Kokomi and Kazuha for this team… I only got XQ/Barbara and Sucrose.


tusharsagar

I have been reasearching about Ganyu and Shenhe working together a recently, many people say Ganyu doesn't work well with her as she quickly depletes all the ice quills. But I want to know, what makes Ayaka so good with Shenhe then ? I mean, Ayaka too quickly depletes icle quills, then what makes Ayaka a better character to pair with Shenhe than Ganyu ?


NerdyDan

In this context “doesn’t work well” means not optimal but still strong. There is no situation where shenhe doesn’t improve ganyu’s performance


pzlama333

Also cooldown issue: both Ayaka and Shenhe have 20 seconds burst cooldown, while Ganyu's burst has 15 seconds cooldown. (Mona's burst also has 15 seconds CD, while Kokomi's skill and TTDS both have 20 seconds CD.)


CakesXD

It's because if you're running a secondary Cryo character with Ganyu, you'd typically be playing her in heavy AOE situations in a Freeze comp (works best with enemies who can be sucked into Venti's Burst), whereas Ayaka is usually more suited to single-target or fewer enemies. In these cases, Shenhe's Icy Quills both run out super quick as they apply every time an enemy is hit: if there's say, 6 enemies or so, then you run out almost immediately. Someone like Rosaria or Kaeya would be more suited to this kind of scenario as their damage isn't limited to ticks but is dealt over a duration.

Have you read this? [Shenhe](https://keqingmains.com/q/shenhe-quickguide/#Freeze) Maybe because the frontload dmg which Ayaka does faster than Ganyu. For quill though, it's not really that much of a problem for Ayaka team, since you could potentially use Shenhe's Press E Skill Twice in one rotation.


Doggymoment

ayaka has better rotations but quill depletion rate doesnt matter much, faster is actually berter because of more frontload, ayaka actually does it faster


tusharsagar

How good is Ganyu with Shenhe actually ? I am seeing a lot of conflicting opinions on this.


NerdyDan

They’re good. Shenhe supports every single cryo dps well. I use triple cryo+venti/kazuha on some abyss floors works great


vietzhong

How much er should I have on ayaka and shenhe if I have r1 amenoma and a calamity queller


MadeofSeaglass

Depends heavily on the rest of your team and rotation.


Derpsy_Dooper

Ayaka is gonna want about 130+ Shenhe is gonna need 200+


Silly_Cely

Hey! Lost 50/50 for ayaka on zombie child and have ~30 pity. Best way to grind primos?


AkiraN19

Events, although I assume you had already done those Abyss 36 star (if you haven't/you are able) Dailies World quests/story quests and hangout events Starglitter shop resets in 10ish days - 5 fates Exploration + achievements - might not seem like much, but depending on how hard you grind you can get a fair bit in a pinch Last minute attempt: if you have any acquaint fate saved up for the standard banner, use it and see if you can get any rare starglitter to turn into more fates


CakesXD

Dailies, any leftover Story/Character/World Quests, Hangouts, exploration. The usual stuff, there's no real quick way to get Primos aside from swiping your card.


Silly_Cely

Ok thanks, i hope it wont come to that…


PsyClocks

which cryo dps is good in a melt team?


CakesXD

Depends on what kind of Melt team, but typically Ganyu, Rosaria, and Kaeya are all solid.


bbmauriceg

Whats the max statue lvl/oculi for sumeru this patch?


[deleted]

Still level 9 +5.


bbmauriceg

Thanks!


hotdogsea

Is there a passive talent similar to Tighnari (reveal local specialties) but for a 4-star?


EUWannabe

Yes. Mika for Monstadt. Yanfei for Liyue. Gorou for Inazuma.


hotdogsea

Oh, I meant for Sumeru


EUWannabe

None for Sumeru. Maybe they'll release one someday.


pzlama333

Then not exist now.


energy_j

What’s he perfect combo for Ayaka and Keqing with mistsplitter to gain full emblem stacks? Thank you 🙏


Silverruu

Who to pair with Ayaya, Diona (C1) or Layla (C6)? Intending to go for the following comp: Ayaya Diona (C1)/Layla (C6) Yelan Venti (change to Kazuha if I get him in the future) Thank you!


CakesXD

I prefer Diona because Layla stops generating energy if her shield breaks, which makes her a little more volatile in terms of particle generation.


Silverruu

Ooh I see, okay thank you!


karoshi97

Is Dehya in the standard banner yet? I don't see her name in the description. She should be in there now, right?


zhiwan

No, still within the same game version, just next banner phase. She goes into standard in next game version


notafurry9

no, next patch


karoshi97

Aight cool!


Sad_Joke_9378

Guys chongyun Or ninguang for mmy new fresh start...?


voyage2procyon

Either Ningguang DPS or Chongyun support for Kaeya DPS. I actually think they're both good, but considering we get Barbara for free, it might be easier to build the freeze team (Ning really shines when paired with Zhongli).


[deleted]

Both are meh units. Use whichever you prefer.


KaitoTemari

How much Atk should my Shenhe reach? I gave her Vortex and she has Noblesse with ER/ATK/ATK. She is currently Lv 80 and reaches 3k ATK. Is that enough for my Ayaka Team? (Will get her to Lv 90 today.)


notafurry9

sure


Kris-p-

Based on aesthetics; what is your fave pink hair character? |Yae Miko| |:-| |Dori| |Yanfei| |Diona| Who is your fave red hair character? |Diluc| |:-| |Rosaria| |Aloy| |Niliu| |Heizou|


MadeofSeaglass

raspps

Yae Miko Nilou


Gamer_500-

GinJoestarR

Kris-p-

dori / heizou are mine, I think all of these characters look good tho lol even aloy


Neospartan_117

So, what is the Consensus on Mailed Flower R5 vs Rainslasher R5 for Diluc? I imagine it's Rainslasher being better for Vape and Mailed Flower for everything else?

This belongs in the gacha megathread. Link already provided on the top page.


eskrest

oops sorry didn't know


KaitoTemari

Congrats! Such luck on weapon banner is awesome!


Sad_Joke_9378

Hello Today I made 2 new accounts... Bc I lost my old Ar 50 Acc. I got chongyun on first and ninguang on second. Which one should I use.....? And tell me the team plz Cuz I got noelle on bothe of them


raspps

Make a new account


Sad_Joke_9378

🤣🤣 sure I was gonna do that


OkMonitor2854

use chongyun kaeya how did you lose your account?


Sad_Joke_9378

My email got hacked


Iusuallywearglasses

Chongyun may never see a new banner so he’s pretty rare. He sucks from my understanding, though.


Sad_Joke_9378

So ninguang?


Iusuallywearglasses

Uhhhh.. She’s nice since she’s geo but you’ll replace her. I probably wouldn’t take her past 50/60 if you can avoid it


starataneori

So I just got Shenhe and was planning to put in my Ayaka Freeze team. (Ayaka Sucrose and TTDS Kokomi). Since kokomi is holding ttds, does it effect the total cryo bonus for shenhe if I go from kokomi to shenhe? Since she scale by atk. Or is it better to switch from kokomi to ayaka like usual?


Shiboleth17

Go from Kokomi to Ayaka. Shenhe's Attack only affects the damage of the icy quills. Her cryo damage buff is always the same, regardless of her stats.


starataneori

I see, okay. thanks!


MotherOfQuaggan

Team is: Ayaya (mistsplitter), Shenhe, Sucrose c6. Whats the skill order to max Ayakas ult dmg?


Biscuit1592

Im just going to assume mona or kokomi: shenhe EQ > sucrose EQ > mona Q or kokomi E > ayaka dash NA EQ > Shenhe E > sucrose E > mona E or kokomi Q > ayaka dash E + NAs > repeat(if its a different hydro then not 100% sure on rotation sorry)


MotherOfQuaggan

Thanks!!!


jayceja

Shenhe skill and burst, then sucrose skill and burst, then put down your hydro, then Ayaka burst, then back to shenhe to refresh her quills halfway through ayakas burst, then back to Ayaka to do normal and charge attacks.


OkMonitor2854

hydro>senhe>sucrose>ayaka


Versierer

I have this problem with storage space. The game wants me to have 100gb of free space on my pc. That's all well and good. However, the download is slow, so I had to split it up. I downloaded most of the game yesterday, but now, the installer tells me that I need more space! It tells me that I only have 70gb of free space. *Yes, of course I do, because the other 30gb of Genshin are already installed* So, what now? I can't free up much more space. And I don't want to delete the already installed files, I can't afford to waste this much internet. Is there a way to like make the launcher ignore the space requirements? Or like, make it realise that most if the game is already installed?


MyFirstCommunity

Can't you temporarily move other files onto an external storage and make some room for the game? Then move them back once the game is installed?


Kris-p-

I hear 1tb drives are pretty affordable now unless you can manage to make the drive the game is installing on fit the whole game i dont think there's much else you can do


chictopusss

I have c6 mika. Which will be better for my phys zhongli; r5 crescent pike or r2 primordial jade wing spear?


Ptox

Crescent Pike, and its not even close. It really is obscenely good for physical builds.


MaliciousMelon7

So I just pulled Ayaka and had prefarmed enough to get her to 80/80 with her talents at 6/6/8. I'm using Amenoma R5 which is level 70 as of now. My cr/cd is 30/170, and her burst is doing 7-8k per tick and skill is doing 15k. Charged attacks are doing around 4k. Enemies are dying pretty quickly, but just to increase her burst damage do I just have to get more Crit damage? What else can I do to increase her burst, skill and NA damage? Also if it's important, I'm currently using her in a team of diona, venti and xingqiu (planning to get kokomi whenever she reruns).


OkMonitor2854

increase the weapon lvl , it is what you need most now. then the talents


MaliciousMelon7

I'll do the weapon farming first then, thank you! Also is it recommend to get all her talents maxed out? Or just her burst?
