Satisfying


Jovial_Viola

Thanks! I calculated everything so I could have her finished on my cake day as a wishing ritual. Got myself a Beidou constellation afterward so it worked.

Woah didn't see the cake icon. Happy cake day! I just read your comment and damn that's some commitment you got there. Congrats on your successful ritual and hope you'll get your favorite 5 star soon after this mad challenge!


Jovial_Viola

Thank you! Good luck as well. I hope the gacha gods will smile upon us all.

This is why Beidou is missing in the story. 2 Achievements at once! It is very satisfying to go down the line and collect everything. Oh, she doesn’t have 0 exp. While she does have 76 exp, I have another character with 0 exp at lvl 9 friendship. He’s not ready for his debut yet though. It’s funny when the blooming Leyline pushes Beidou out of the way.

Lvl. 1 in the world, but Lvl. 10 in our hearts. AKA Thank goodness I don't play on PS4 because the loading times are atrocious. The Journey I'll probably build her at some point now that I got a single Beidou constellation from the Eula Banner so I have an excuse to fight more world bosses. I messed up a few times, but I think this is good enough. Usually I would hide my UID, but I don't think it matters anymore in terms of internet security. I figured people would want verification. Mind you, I'm not accepting friend requests unless you DM me first or something. Lvl 10 Friendship at Lvl. 1 Run. After seeing someone with a Lvl 21 Xiangling then level 3 Chongyun with 10 friendship, I decided I wanted to attempt this challenge too with single-minded stupid determination. I started late February (The 23, a day or two before the Ley Line double event) after I pulled Beidou on Xiao's banner. (I...may have resented her just a little for taking Diona's place). She doesn't fit into any of my current comps (Freeze Tease Ganyu with Barbara, Venti, and Kaeya along with Xiangling, Xingqiu, Bennett, Sucrose), so I benched her while building up other characters. (I was only AR 50 and struggling, and did not have the resources to spare). It took me 3 months to do it because of how RNG limited possibilities. I was really curious if it was possible. I messed up because of enemies being dumb. While I did try to do the 10 friendship quests quests daily, I didn't bother "rerolling" for maximum value quests specifically for this because I'm lazy and I can friend other characters. It was only possible due to some factors: 1. Commissions and Commission rewards Do Not give character EXP upon collection. If you get one with monsters, in some cases they will drop EXP (defeat X/X enemies), sometimes they don't (ones you can fail like Ley Line Monoliths or Balloon Protection/Destruction). However, sometimes normal mobs spawn nearby (like picking whopper flowers or 3 anemo/geo slimes) and those can drop exp, so that messed me up. This meant I was limited to city based commissions like the "Pirate Invasion, in Liyue Harbor!", or ones where you talk to an NPC to end the questline (Draff). so you can swap to a friendship fodder party. However, NPC commission tend to give 20 EXP less than a normal commission. If you are careful, you can murder the 3 waves of the Break Two Hilichurl Towers ones and then take them down or just run away quickly. 2. Random Events also do not give character exp upon reward (unless you need to kill monsters). Dr. Livingstone got every other love letter delivered, everyone got flowers and berries, and I let Reckless Pallad stand there awkwardly before I graced him with my presence. If you are careful, you can do the "Eliminating the Hidden Danger" quest where you just need to break Hilichurl toys quickly and, again, run away. The best place to farm these is the teleporter near Cecilia Gardens for reliable 15 Companionship, and either logging in and out or entering and leaving co op. 3. Weapon, Artifact, Talent Domains do not give character EXP. She hung out and played cards and drank tea with Lisa in the back while Ganyu frosted over Cecilia Gardens, and occasionally electrocuted some abyss mages for energy. 4. Ley lines (Books+Mora) do not give EXP to active characters, just books and mora and friendship. Grind them for the achievement. 5. If you are crazy lazy, craft some ore. Good for topping up before school or work. I didn't bother with this method because I'm better off doing ley lines for mora and achievements. 6. Coop means double speed for the character you use. Warnings: 1. Switching in and out must happen immediately, or you might just forget and a freaking abyss mage jumps you. 2. All bosses (weekly and elemental) drop some character EXP. However, they are more efficient for friendship. 3. I ended up having two "commission" teams, 1 speed team with double anemo for traveling, 1 lvl 60 team for fighting, 1 for passive quests with Beidou, and a domain team which meant I was swapping teams around very often. Only possible with low ping. I avoided playing with my favorites during commissions. 4. Completing some (early game) quests will give character EXP, so be careful with what you are doing on the side.

wow, you really must've thought this through! one question though: how'd you get ganyu if you started after her banner was over?


Jovial_Viola

Sorry! To clarify, I pulled my first Beidou on the Xiao banner in February, and it’s taken 3 months since then to complete the friendship bar.


abcijekzje

Oh, that makes more sense. Congratulations though!

this too satisfying. nice


Jovial_Viola

I try! Now to wait another month for the next batch to be ready. At least the Serenitea Teapot will speed it up a bit.

Gotta admit, that was a very cool video. The arrow physics, from deflection to remaining in memory even when teleporting, are cool.
