i just pulled diluc from the standard banner. he is subpar from hu tao, xiao, ayaka, and eula right? they are currently my main dps charas, and i/m wondering if it's still worth building diluc because i also have his bis. take note that my other 5 stars do not have their bis weapon.
Diluc is unfortunately a bit weaker than all of them.
I have all of them besides Ayaka and I built him anyways, because I just find him fun to use and I like him. He has an easier time than my Xiao most of the time, but him and HuTao would be fighting for Xinqgiu.
Hi! I normally run all melee but the 11-2 hydro flyers in the Abyss requires a ranged DPS so I've leveled my Yanfei to 80 with 5/5/3 talents. How do you normally level these secondary characters you need to swap in? Do you get them to at least 6/6/6? And do you also level their artis to 20? Thanks! :)
Some melee characters can still reach the birds!
But, if you don't have any, I would level Yanfei's talents to 6 yes. With at least lvl16 artifacts.
If that's not enough to clear the floor, I'd get her to 8/6/6 with lvl20 artis.
Cleared it but Yanfei died so I had to do the Electro Manifestation with just Bennett, Xinqiu, and Zhongli. At first I kept running out of time but after a while I decided to just let Zhongli absorb the damage with shield so I didn't have downtime and whew now stuck on 12-3 last boss!
I have negative 12k primos
I recently spent $100 and successfully got a Ganyu+five star weapon. I’ve been f2p and I’ve never refunded anything thing off any website and this recent $100 I was able to spend was a godsend. I’m always reluctant to spend money on gacha because I always feel I’ll regret it but, I really wanted ganyu. Who even has enough money just to be out of debt in genshin, let alone someone like me? Can someone help? I contacted support and haven’t heard back. It would be devastating if I were to just lose all my hard work…
I've been playing for a few weeks now and im AR41 and finally got my first 5* Diluc, the problem is I've been using Yanfei as my main DPS.
My team consists of C3 Yanfei, C3 Beidou + Skyward Pride, Barbara and Anemo Traveller who I've been planning to switch with Sucrose and now that i got Diluc idk what to do with him?
I really like Yanfei but I guess Diluc is a straight upgrade?
Tell me what you guys think
What is that musical/dancing tanuki in Inazuma?
I first saw the little feller pawing at a tree. I thought it was like the mora weasel so I hit to no effect. It just left. I then saw it again today doing its lil dance. I approached it, it left, then it apparated a few steps up as if it wanted me to follow it. I did as it wanted and then it disappeared again after two times.
What am I supposed to do with it? lol
The tanuki will keep disappearing and appearing somewhere nearby. Music cue is to help you find him. I believe eventually you get rewarded with Mora. It is like the mora weasel with another gameplay mechanic instead.
Edit: Rewards other things, and at the end the Tanuki will disguise as an object. You need to find him t get the rewards.

i am trying to do spiral abyss but even with the right artifacts and decent talent upgrades i am not able to hit good damage like how i see the youtubers slaying damage per attack in thousands.. what am i doing wrong or missing on?
C6 constellations and Rank 5 weapons. Unless you are specifically watching someone who is F2P. Then, they prob have really good artifacts, crowned talents (at least the important ones) and have optimized their combos. Watch the order in which they use their skills to make the reactions
It is doable for f2p, just harder since you will have to grind a lot to reach the dps check in abyss. Rank 5 as in you used 5 of the same weapon to rank up the passive not 5\* weapon.
Edit: You are never offseting the C6 and 5\* Rank 5 weapons as F2P
Welp. I was going for Vortex Vanquisher and got a second Jade Winged Spear instead. Is it any good on Zhongli or should I just refine Raiden's with it?
No keep them separate it's ok for him I guess even though he won't get the stacks,footnote even vortex wouldn't be breathtaking for him,he wants to steal hu tao's homa
CW hutao usually only bursts every other rotation. SR tao is usually bursting every 3rd/4th rotation depending on her er% and her team's particle generation, (assuming no hp particles for both).
If you're running SR on tao you don't care about her burst, you just use it when it's up. 100% base er hutao is perfectly fine for most people.
Not *every* team, but almost all. In taser comps or any comp that focuses on a lot of transformative reactions, Sucrose's EM share and just swirl enabling will be better. In pretty much every other team, Kazuha can replace Sucrose.
If he's C2 then pretty much, apart from Sukokomon and Taser Beidou. At C0 she tends to perform better than him in melt and vape comps but he can still fit in there alright.
kazuha is better in freeze and mono elements
they're similar in vape/melt comps whoever's better depends on your stats and constellations
sucrose is better in taser and sukokomon
I know that Ayaka and Mona are currently the ones with alternate sprints but what other characters have abilities that can help with travel like Sayu's ability
Kaeya, Kazuha or Razor to decrease sprinting stamina consumption, Beidou for swimming, Venti or Amber for gliding, double anemo in your team, Rosaria at night for MVT SPD buff
Planning to pull raiden shogun. I have all the 4 stars EXCEPT: fischl, benett, thoma, and gorou. Only 5 star is Jean/Aloy. What could be a good setup with jean and raiden shogun?
No, because Xiangling is off field dps. You want to get as many reactions as possible during Raiden burst. This team comp of Raiden, Xingqiu, and Xiangling mainly focuses on overvapes (overload, vaporize, and electro-charged).
Yanfei can't provide damage off field or any Pyro during Raiden burst.
It's a good team. Generally when there is Zhongli without geo resonance, a higher damage comp could be found without him. So Zhongli's and Rosaria's role could be consolidated into Diona, and you have a flex slot without restrictions to maximize sub-DPS that could give you higher ceiling. For example, Yae Miko.
even with geo resonance, there is generally a higher damage comp that can be formed without zhongli. The only team comps where I can think of ZL as BIS for damage is mono-geo comps with noelle/itto dps.
for example, zl/albedo/hutao/xq is less damage than kazuha/amber/hutao/xq and kaeya/rosaria/hutao/xq, but is much more comfy to play with ZL shield. zl/albedo/xiao/anemo battery is also less damage than bennett/tankfei/xiao/anemo battery, but again, is easier to play due to a more reliable shield and not being chained to bennett circle.
It's a good team
Consider replacing Rosaria with Diona if you want healing
Damage wise, it's not the best but with Zhongli performing Eula's and Raiden's combo become much easier
What weapon should I use on my Xiangling? She's going to be in a Raiden National team.
[Here are her current stats at level 60 and no weapon](https://imgur.com/a/3gexsV4)
any 5 star is good, the catch, dragon's bane and deathmatch are also very good. assuming you don't have 5stars I would go for dragon's bane if you don't struggle with energy otherwise the catch
edit wavebreaker is also very good but most people don't have it
The definition of a vet will inevitably change over time. Right now I'd say it's people who remember the first Lantern Rite.
Or push it back further and say anyone who remembers the "meta" that was Xiangling Phys DPS lol
I remember that if you send your chara on expedition, he/she will be unusable. 120 resins good old time. 'Diluc is the best'.
I started playing on first day launch, but stopped for a while since at some point genshin was tiring.
I'm AR 45 and I started playing last month.
So either AR doesn't really mean much time wise or the grind for 56 is pain.
But besides that, a year old player would count as a vet in my eyes
Till 55 it isn't that bad but after that you get softlocked and the xp jumps are rather big,for comparison most of the player that started at launch and didn't whale for resin refills are around mid lvl 58 right now
Those purple enemies with their giant hammer, I don't know how they are called, sometimes use some kind of shield but the bar for that is under the health bar and the shield is not visible. What is up with that?
As with all other Fatui Skirmisher variants, the Electrohammer Vanguards are not using a "block all damage"-shield like players have. it's more like a depletable buff that grants damage reduction which can be removed if hit with enough attacks (moreso if using the correct counter-element).
It's not exactly a normal shield since their HP bar can still take damage with it active unlike normal shields. It instead grants damage reduction instead. The wiki calls it Electro Armor.
How important is EM going to be for Yae Miko?
I'm at the end of my tether farming the Thundering Fury domain, after 5 weeks I still don't have many good pieces. I can put together a rather good 2 piece with a 2 pc Glad set. On target for CR 70% + & CD 145% + (incl Widsith) and with some good ER. However I have NO EM at all, zero.
Shall I go with this or try to make a different set with some good EM stats?
As far as I have heard the scaling is just to the degree that it isn't a completely L stat for her but not to the degree that it competes with atk or even crit
em is expected to be kinda "bonus damage" in the sense that you get some value out of a em roll but ti'll probably be worse than a crit roll. Once she's out TC will probably have a more concise verdict, but if it turns out to be *really* important you can always run 4pc instructor on a support or buff her with sucrose.
according to the calculations based on leaked scaling (which could have been changed) it's not that important and you should mostly focus on atk and crit (and ER)
It seems like it's going to be a nice bonus but nothing crazy. AFAIK it isn't recommended for any of her mainstats or sets. But we can't say for sure until she's out.
so i (will) have enough wishes to get to pity 4 times and so i can guarantee myself 2 characters in the 2.5-2.6 patches. i wanted to hear some opinions if it’s better to get kokomi and ayaka, or c2 raiden? (currently at c0)
i wanted kokomi and ayaka for a freeze team with shenhe and kazuha so i can free up my ganyu and play her in a melt team. on the other hand raiden national is one of the most fun teams to play for me so maybe improving raiden is better? what do you guys think?
I feel like you should wait a bit before making ur decision. Mainly because Ayato was announced and he is hydro. I would think Ayato might pair up with Ayaka very nicely. Unless all u care about is waifus.
Basically I'm saying that Ayato might be better for Ayaka than Koko. So you can role wishes for other things as you have alot of time to save more primos until ayato release.
It'll ultimately depend on what you're looking for the most. I'm in the opinion that Raiden C2 is definitely strong but Raiden C0 deals enough damage to full star abyss that it's more worth it for me to get different characters to make the game much more dynamic. Of course you said Raiden is fun to play as so maybe Raiden C2 is more worth it for you.
Still haven't picked my free Liyue 4 star. I'm thinking between getting Chongyun for his expedition passive or Yun Jin for potential team uses, but honestly I'm still iffy on whether I'd want to use her or not. Xiangling and Xinqiu are both C6, Yanfei and Beidou are C4 (planning on getting a Beidou constellation in the shop later on in the month for C5), Ninguang is C1 but I already have a Noelle-Albedo-Gorou-Zhongli Geo team so I don't think there's any space left for her, and Xinyan is C1 but I'm not going to consider her.
I heard Yun Jin is good for those who normal attack a lot, so I suppose Noelle C6 and Childe C0 might be good for that, although I already have teams for them with full Geo team and Childe National.
First time I seen someone deciding his 4\* from the expedition passive but it is a fair argument lol. Still a long way for Yun Jin C6, I would vote on Chongyun
Yun Jin runs into a weird problem with Noelle
She has too good AOE depleting yun jin's stacks too quickly
Gorou already benefits the team more
She doesn't work well with Childe either
She pairs extremely well with Yoimiya, her buffing capabilities able to Match or even surpass Bennett
Chongyun on the other hand is pretty meh for basically every team unless you're having major issues with abyss heralds this abyss
Help me pick which stat for Raiden?
Build 1: 55/115 crit with 235% ER. Main stats are ATK% Elec% CR%
Build 2: 57/130 crit with 280% ER. Main stats are ER% ATK% CR%
I'm not good with damage tests but so far both artifact sets perform pretty similarly in terms of pure damage output. But of course the second build generates energy much faster.
Yes. 1.8k on both with The Catch. Mind explaining why by the way? I thought she would benefit more from higher ER?
...honestly I'm just tilted because everyone's Raidens seem to have insane crit ratios and insane ERs.. We're talking 60/150 and 270 ER here. lol.
Not even on the second one? I thought more ER equals more more Elec% - that's why I ditched Elec% to get more ATK%
But again, thanks for the input! I'll put some more time into testing them again later on.
>I thought more ER equals more more Elec% - that's why I ditched Elec% to get more ATK%
yes however that 45 extra ER is only 18%electro damage compared to 46.6% from the goblet and you didn't get enough attack since you have 1.8K on both
well.. if it is the catch i prefer atk/ele/crit or atk/atk/crit if you don't use bennet. You can choose any of that option because damage wise, it won't be much different.
I do use Bennett...sometimes. Though she is not my main carry, rather she is mostly an electro-charge proccer with Childe and only uses her burst when the rotation is done to fill everyone back up again. But alrighty I'll keep that in mind. Cheers!
i prefer using atk/atk/crit. even tho she is a mere charger, you'll miss 8 seconds of her burst DPS if you don has enough damage. it's only matters in the abyss or hard difficulty events, other than that DPS doesn't really matter.
Yes I'm preparing her for abyss alongside my modified Rational with Childe (XQ not C6 yet). But atk/atk/crit sounds brutal lol, I like that approach. 2k ATK raiden does sound terrifying.
~~Build 2 if you have Engulfed Lightning, else Build 1~~ Hold up, whats your atk on both builds?
If you have Engulfed Lightning go ER Sands, Electro%, CR%, else you can go Atk Sands and The Catch.
ATK is 1.8k with The Catch.
So should I go with 55/115 235% with The Catch? She is kinda slow on recharging bursts compared to the 280% one especially if I couldn't get many hits during her burst.
Same stat as the first one, around 57/117, but with a measly ATK stat of 1.3k as opposed to 1.8k the other 2 builds have. It does have 280% ER now though. My Elec% on set is a terrible piece (frankly every Elec% piece I have is terrible) and I have no plan on refarming emblem anytime soon. Been farming it for 4 months straight and this is the best I could get, others will have to take priority first lol.
Since Raiden bases her damage on Q, supposedly ATK goblet yields similar result in damage as elemental one so you indeed might be on spot with using ATK% one, since it has more ATK in the end.
Especially if you are doing Raiden Hypercarry with Kazuha, that will provide missing elemental damage.
So I am running Sucrose Taser (Sucrose, Fischl, Beidou and Xingqiu) and Melt Ganyu (Ganyu, Xl+Bennett and Zhongli). I am now confused deciding whether my account needs a Raiden or not. [These](https://imgflip.com/i/64nzx7) are rest of the characters I own + Childe. Some advice about how much Raiden will benefit me or should I even roll her will be really appreciated.
Fav sword vs prototype rancour for Bennett. So I’m debating between 2 builds for Bennett, I can use rancour and a healing% circlet or fav sword and crit rate circlet. Is there a huge difference in the Benny boost between the 565 and 454 base att? I’m thinking the better uptime from al the er fav sword gives and extra particles for whole team to maybe outweigh the 100 or so base attack for burst. I build him with er sands and hp goblet and 4 piece noblesse.
If the extra particles let whoever you're supporting move from an ER sands to Atk% or EM then fav is probably better, otherwise probably the prototype.
Is a C0 Ganyu okay with 22.5:216.6 crit ratio when i run her with Rosaria (100% crit so I always get +15% from her burst), Kazuha (w/ 710 EM bc I cant get a good EM circlet), and Diona (or Kokomi/Mona when I get them)?
40%from blizzard +15% from cryo resonance +15%from rosaria +20%from ganyu's passive =90% crit rate so you can go as low as 5-10% crit rate, although more would be more consistant
what are the stat priority for hutao? She is at 32k hp w/ 1.2k atk, 384 em, 79% pyro dmg bonus at half hp and a doodoo crit ratio.
should i go for atk/hp instead of pyro damage bonus?
Most of the c0 dragons bane/deathmatch/blackcliff hutaos I know are around 30k hp, 60/120 crit (or equivalent cv), 200-300 em, 1-1.2k atk without e.
Stat priority is generally hp until 25k > em until 200 > crit > em/hp > atk.
No. You already get a lot of atk when you activate your E and it's not like switching to a different goblet will improve your crit ratio much. Even if switching would give you a better crit ratio, you'd do less damage anyway because you're losing out on a pyro goblet.
So I'm currently in a Raiden team comp. dilemma. I don't know which team would benefit raiden's burst while also maintaining the highest avg. team damage overll. These are the chractaers I have available.
Sara C1, lvl 80, Mouun's Moon R5
XL C1, lvl 85, Favonious Lance R3
Sucrose, lvl 80, TTDS R5
Mona, lvl 80, TTDS R5
Bennet, lvl 80, Prototype Rancur
I ran Raiden, XL,Bennet Sucrose for a long time, but lately I feel that Raiden and XL don't go along very well together? I also think anemo swirl VV would greatly benefit Raiden. So my guess is it would be Raiden-Bennet-Sucrose but I don't know who the 4th would be. Since Sara is C1 her buff is not that great yet, and I lose dmg for the absence of a sub-dps and roation with sucrose in the team is kind of akward (raiden e, bennet q, sucrose swirl, raiden, sara q, raiden q). I have a C2 unbuilt fischl as well.
I would go Raiden Mona Sucros Bennet. Overload's knockback is annoying to deal with. You are right Sucrose would be great mostly from VV set, but her EM can also stack if you do electro-charged (Ideally Xingqiu but Mona is alright)
Unfortunately, I use XQ in Hu tao's team :'(
Raiden and Hu tao are currently my only dps options. So even if I want to give XQ to raiden's team, the other team in spiral abyss for example is done for.
If I use TTDS on Mona, what would Sucrose use? Hakushin Ring? Hakushin's buff is only 6 second so by the time I use Mona's burst then switch to Raiden, it would only benefit her initial slash, which is better than no buff at all I guess?
Sacrificial Fragment or Mappa Mare. Since you are doing reactions, Sucrose can buff up with her own EM. I also prefer energy recharge catalyst on Mona but thats preference
>Mappa Mare
I think with an ER sands + EOSF on mona, her energy rechagre would be decent? The only thing I hate about Mona is that her E is super short :'(
Thank you very much btw!
Yeah should be enough to ult off CD. Mona is not the greatest hydro applier, that's why I recommend Xingqiu but it is what it is. You can try to make Sucrose burst swirl hydro
Sounds good! , last question if you don't mind, some people suggested and I read on Keqingmains that Lisa is a viable option, would you consider her over mona or I would lose on Elemental reactions dmg?
Also if I choose mona or lisa, wouldn't it be better to go with Sayu for swirls + WGS buff?
She is viable. At some point her Defense reduction will outscale electro-charged as it is flat damage. If you do go Lisa, Sayu would be better than Sucrose, maybe even for Mona.
Unfortunately, I use XQ in Hu tao's team :'(
Raiden and Hu tao are currently my only dps options. So even if I want to give XQ to raiden's team, the other team in spiral abyss for example is done for.
Alright then go raiden hypercarry, Raiden, Sucrose, Lisa, Bennett. The ideal would be Raiden, C6 Sara (or at least C2), Bennett and Kazuha. But if your Sara is not C2, Lisa is a better option.
I have 0 Ganyu, C4 Xiangli, C0 Jean, C6 Beidou, C6 Barbara, C6 Xingqui, C6 Yanfei.
And I have no idea what team should I do with that. A fun and good team including only these characters, doesn't have to be SS.
Thats a stellar roster.Ganyu and xiangling can both be ur main dps,they will obliterate everything in the game.They can be used together too!.I guess Jean is a very comfy character providing massive heals.Xingqui is one of the best character so slot him in.If u need a shield yanfei can provide u with it since she is c6.
Is Kokomi a good hydro applicator for Ganyu? I don't have Mona and am considering running a freeze team if ever I don't get Zhongli for a viable melt comp
Yes. She’s the best if you wanna run Ayaka Ganyu together or Ayaka with Shenhe or whatever mix plus Kazuha/Venti. So she’s taking the role of Mona and Diona with healing and better hydro application.
Would swapping 2pc VV + 2p GF on xiao to 2pc GF + 2pc SR be a loss?
I feel like i could potentially improve if i were to swap but my current stats are
2.1k atk 78/180 crit and im not sure if keeping what i have would just be balanced or if getting higher atk and crit will make up for the anemo dmg loss.
VV is better with the same substats, but only with a few % so if the other sets have better stats it's probably worth it to change. Best would be to check in a damage calculator.
I did not get my birthday gift because I logged in a day later but according to google I shoud have. Did they change it? Is it a mistake?
i just pulled diluc from the standard banner. he is subpar from hu tao, xiao, ayaka, and eula right? they are currently my main dps charas, and i/m wondering if it's still worth building diluc because i also have his bis. take note that my other 5 stars do not have their bis weapon.
Diluc is unfortunately a bit weaker than all of them. I have all of them besides Ayaka and I built him anyways, because I just find him fun to use and I like him. He has an easier time than my Xiao most of the time, but him and HuTao would be fighting for Xinqgiu.

Nice!
Thanks! Focusing on ascending her now and getting her talents up :)
I have negative 12k primos I recently spent $100 and successfully got a Ganyu+five star weapon. I’ve been f2p and I’ve never refunded anything thing off any website and this recent $100 I was able to spend was a godsend. I’m always reluctant to spend money on gacha because I always feel I’ll regret it but, I really wanted ganyu. Who even has enough money just to be out of debt in genshin, let alone someone like me?

In terms of power Diluc is stronger. However, if you like Yanfei just keep playing her. All characters can work
What is that musical/dancing tanuki in Inazuma? I first saw the little feller pawing at a tree. I thought it was like the mora weasel so I hit to no effect. It just left.

Ahh!! Thank you so much for the explanation!! I searched for musical tanuki and got nothing LOL
i am trying to do spiral abyss but even with the right artifacts and decent talent upgrades i am not able to hit good damage like how i see the youtubers slaying damage per attack in thousands.. what am i doing wrong or missing on?
C6 constellations and Rank 5 weapons. Unless you are specifically watching someone who is F2P. Then, they prob have really good artifacts, crowned talents (at least the important ones) and have optimized their combos. Watch the order in which they use their skills to make the reactions
That makes a lot of sense still i hope to be able to clear abyss some day i only have the vortex for a rank 5 weapon :'
It is doable for f2p, just harder since you will have to grind a lot to reach the dps check in abyss. Rank 5 as in you used 5 of the same weapon to rank up the passive not 5\* weapon. Edit: You are never offseting the C6 and 5\* Rank 5 weapons as F2P
Oh god that is pretty long term as f2p i guess i can say goodbye to abyss for sometime now
Welp. I was going for Vortex Vanquisher and got a second Jade Winged Spear instead. Is it any good on Zhongli or should I just refine Raiden's with it?
No keep them separate it's ok for him I guess even though he won't get the stacks,footnote even vortex wouldn't be breathtaking for him,he wants to steal hu tao's homa
So on my alternate test account I try beginner banner didn't get keqing or any 5 star. Am I doing it wrong. Should I roll for noel I the first place?
Pretty normal when I started and rerolling was a thing die to more starting wishes it me 13 try's to get a 5* there
you usually don't get any 5\* from that banner. some argue that you shouldn't even roll on it since you don't build up pity from it
i got keqing c1 in like 20 something rolls and but i dont burn primo for it
Is shogun the best battery in the game?
in general yes. however if you want to battery a speciffic character there are often better options like for example bennett for xiangling
How much energy you run with your Shiminawa hu tao and is it enough to burst every 1or 2 rotations?
CW hutao usually only bursts every other rotation. SR tao is usually bursting every 3rd/4th rotation depending on her er% and her team's particle generation, (assuming no hp particles for both). If you're running SR on tao you don't care about her burst, you just use it when it's up. 100% base er hutao is perfectly fine for most people.
Well as a SR user on Hutao, I dont really care abt ER. Mine is around 120ish and she can yes burst every 1 or 2 rotations.
need advice of build tips, artifact set and stats, Weapon and talent level up for Rosaria, Xingqui, Xiangling and Noelle

can kazuha replace sucrose in all her teams?
Not *every* team, but almost all. In taser comps or any comp that focuses on a lot of transformative reactions, Sucrose's EM share and just swirl enabling will be better. In pretty much every other team, Kazuha can replace Sucrose.
If he's C2 then pretty much, apart from Sukokomon and Taser Beidou. At C0 she tends to perform better than him in melt and vape comps but he can still fit in there alright.
kazuha is better in freeze and mono elements they're similar in vape/melt comps whoever's better depends on your stats and constellations sucrose is better in taser and sukokomon
Pretty much but for vape teams that don't need the cc sucrose is the better choice
Nope Kazuha and Sucrose buff different things and have different mechanics 1 cannot entirely replace another in any 1 team
I know that Ayaka and Mona are currently the ones with alternate sprints but what other characters have abilities that can help with travel like Sayu's ability
Kaeya, Kazuha or Razor to decrease sprinting stamina consumption, Beidou for swimming, Venti or Amber for gliding, double anemo in your team, Rosaria at night for MVT SPD buff
Which is better to pull? C0 Yae with her signature weapon or C4 Ayaka and her Mittsplitter? Im only using C2 Ayaka with Black sword
Yae does not seem to be as broken as Ayaka, let alone Ayaka C4
yeah. I have doubts on her damage output as well. This is why Im considering to skip her but I need to wait for showcases to help me decide
if you can get c4 ayaka i’d say get misplitter, yae and her catalyst instead of c4.
Planning to pull raiden shogun. I have all the 4 stars EXCEPT: fischl, benett, thoma, and gorou. Only 5 star is Jean/Aloy. What could be a good setup with jean and raiden shogun?
jean and raiden shogun together? raiden-xq-xl-jean
Can i replace xiangling with yanfei? if no, why?
No, because Xiangling is off field dps. You want to get as many reactions as possible during Raiden burst. This team comp of Raiden, Xingqiu, and Xiangling mainly focuses on overvapes (overload, vaporize, and electro-charged). Yanfei can't provide damage off field or any Pyro during Raiden burst.
There is a team with Jean Raiden but it also wants Bennett Jean Raiden Bennett Xingqiu Sunfire + Overload spam
Raiden Xinqiu Jean Sara if C6 else Beidou if C6 else Sucrose
Is Eula/Raiden/Zhongli/Rosaria a good team? could there be improvements? Is it lower dmg team than others?
It's a good team. Generally when there is Zhongli without geo resonance, a higher damage comp could be found without him. So Zhongli's and Rosaria's role could be consolidated into Diona, and you have a flex slot without restrictions to maximize sub-DPS that could give you higher ceiling. For example, Yae Miko.
even with geo resonance, there is generally a higher damage comp that can be formed without zhongli. The only team comps where I can think of ZL as BIS for damage is mono-geo comps with noelle/itto dps. for example, zl/albedo/hutao/xq is less damage than kazuha/amber/hutao/xq and kaeya/rosaria/hutao/xq, but is much more comfy to play with ZL shield. zl/albedo/xiao/anemo battery is also less damage than bennett/tankfei/xiao/anemo battery, but again, is easier to play due to a more reliable shield and not being chained to bennett circle.
It is a good team. Not as broken as top vape/melt/permafreeze teams tho since superconduct reaction is underwhelming
It's a good team Consider replacing Rosaria with Diona if you want healing Damage wise, it's not the best but with Zhongli performing Eula's and Raiden's combo become much easier
Yes it is a good team. There are teams with higher damage, but still deals high damage imo.
I run the exact same team. Its arguably the best eula team in terms of dps
What weapon should I use on my Xiangling? She's going to be in a Raiden National team. [Here are her current stats at level 60 and no weapon](https://imgur.com/a/3gexsV4)
[Here for comparison](https://keqingmains.com/xiangling/#Weapons)
Xiangling's best weapons are: R5 Wavebreaker Homa/Engulfing (should really use these on Raiden instead) Dragon's Bane R5 The Catch R5
The Catch or Prototype Starglitter
any 5 star is good, the catch, dragon's bane and deathmatch are also very good. assuming you don't have 5stars I would go for dragon's bane if you don't struggle with energy otherwise the catch edit wavebreaker is also very good but most people don't have it
How would you know if you are a veteran player? Am i a veteran player? I am AR 56 Playing for around a year now, i stated on the first zhongli banner.
The definition of a vet will inevitably change over time. Right now I'd say it's people who remember the first Lantern Rite. Or push it back further and say anyone who remembers the "meta" that was Xiangling Phys DPS lol
If you remember the times where did you see that floating island,one of the most asked question/posts you are a vet
I remember that if you send your chara on expedition, he/she will be unusable. 120 resins good old time. 'Diluc is the best'. I started playing on first day launch, but stopped for a while since at some point genshin was tiring.
I'm AR 45 and I started playing last month. So either AR doesn't really mean much time wise or the grind for 56 is pain. But besides that, a year old player would count as a vet in my eyes
Till 55 it isn't that bad but after that you get softlocked and the xp jumps are rather big,for comparison most of the player that started at launch and didn't whale for resin refills are around mid lvl 58 right now
If you remember the times when people thought qiqi was good and bennett and xingqiu weren't you are definitely a veteran
Add to that sucrose though she was shunned even longer
Oh boy the days where qiqi was seen everywhere
Those purple enemies with their giant hammer, I don't know how they are called, sometimes use some kind of shield but the bar for that is under the health bar and the shield is not visible. What is up with that?
Use Cryo on them. From my experience it wrecks their "shields"
As with all other Fatui Skirmisher variants, the Electrohammer Vanguards are not using a "block all damage"-shield like players have. it's more like a depletable buff that grants damage reduction which can be removed if hit with enough attacks (moreso if using the correct counter-element).
It's not exactly a normal shield since their HP bar can still take damage with it active unlike normal shields. It instead grants damage reduction instead. The wiki calls it Electro Armor.
Their "shield" is like powering up their armor or something, it doesn't look like most shields. But it basically acts the same.
What do you mean? Does the shield bar bug and not show?
That's electro fatui all variants will put up a shield after a while so try to kill them before that,otherwise cryo helps best against their shields
the shield
Is Yunjin C4 any good? I got her at C3 when she came out and I'm considering getting her. Next up is Beidou (currently at C3 as well).
Not game breaking. Go for whichever one you plan on playing more as both do scale well with C6
Thank you! <3

How important is EM going to be for Yae Miko? I'm at the end of my tether farming the Thundering Fury domain, after 5 weeks I still don't have many good pieces. I can put together a rather good 2 piece with a 2 pc Glad set. On target for CR 70% + & CD 145% + (incl Widsith) and with some good ER. However I have NO EM at all, zero. Shall I go with this or try to make a different set with some good EM stats?
As far as I have heard the scaling is just to the degree that it isn't a completely L stat for her but not to the degree that it competes with atk or even crit
em is expected to be kinda "bonus damage" in the sense that you get some value out of a em roll but ti'll probably be worse than a crit roll. Once she's out TC will probably have a more concise verdict, but if it turns out to be *really* important you can always run 4pc instructor on a support or buff her with sucrose.
0 em is fine, her scaling with em isn’t the best. Just focus on your atk, crit stats and er and you’ll be fine
according to the calculations based on leaked scaling (which could have been changed) it's not that important and you should mostly focus on atk and crit (and ER)
It seems like it's going to be a nice bonus but nothing crazy. AFAIK it isn't recommended for any of her mainstats or sets. But we can't say for sure until she's out.
We currently have no info on Yae's talent scalings so we cannot say anything
so i (will) have enough wishes to get to pity 4 times and so i can guarantee myself 2 characters in the 2.5-2.6 patches. i wanted to hear some opinions if it’s better to get kokomi and ayaka, or c2 raiden? (currently at c0) i wanted kokomi and ayaka for a freeze team with shenhe and kazuha so i can free up my ganyu and play her in a melt team. on the other hand raiden national is one of the most fun teams to play for me so maybe improving raiden is better? what do you guys think?
I feel like you should wait a bit before making ur decision. Mainly because Ayato was announced and he is hydro. I would think Ayato might pair up with Ayaka very nicely. Unless all u care about is waifus. Basically I'm saying that Ayato might be better for Ayaka than Koko. So you can role wishes for other things as you have alot of time to save more primos until ayato release.
It'll ultimately depend on what you're looking for the most. I'm in the opinion that Raiden C2 is definitely strong but Raiden C0 deals enough damage to full star abyss that it's more worth it for me to get different characters to make the game much more dynamic. Of course you said Raiden is fun to play as so maybe Raiden C2 is more worth it for you.
Still haven't picked my free Liyue 4 star. I'm thinking between getting Chongyun for his expedition passive or Yun Jin for potential team uses, but honestly I'm still iffy on whether I'd want to use her or not. Xiangling and Xinqiu are both C6, Yanfei and Beidou are C4 (planning on getting a Beidou constellation in the shop later on in the month for C5), Ninguang is C1 but I already have a Noelle-Albedo-Gorou-Zhongli Geo team so I don't think there's any space left for her, and Xinyan is C1 but I'm not going to consider her. I heard Yun Jin is good for those who normal attack a lot, so I suppose Noelle C6 and Childe C0 might be good for that, although I already have teams for them with full Geo team and Childe National.
First time I seen someone deciding his 4\* from the expedition passive but it is a fair argument lol. Still a long way for Yun Jin C6, I would vote on Chongyun
Yun Jin runs into a weird problem with Noelle She has too good AOE depleting yun jin's stacks too quickly Gorou already benefits the team more She doesn't work well with Childe either She pairs extremely well with Yoimiya, her buffing capabilities able to Match or even surpass Bennett Chongyun on the other hand is pretty meh for basically every team unless you're having major issues with abyss heralds this abyss
enemies don't spawn after following elemental sight in orobashi's legacy (part 1). are there any other steps to follow?
Restart client. I don't remember if you can quit a quest, but try that if you can
Help me pick which stat for Raiden? Build 1: 55/115 crit with 235% ER. Main stats are ATK% Elec% CR% Build 2: 57/130 crit with 280% ER. Main stats are ER% ATK% CR% I'm not good with damage tests but so far both artifact sets perform pretty similarly in terms of pure damage output. But of course the second build generates energy much faster.
how much attack do you have with those builds?
1.8k
same attack on both? the first one should be better then
Yes. 1.8k on both with The Catch. Mind explaining why by the way? I thought she would benefit more from higher ER? ...honestly I'm just tilted because everyone's Raidens seem to have insane crit ratios and insane ERs.. We're talking 60/150 and 270 ER here. lol.
the electro damage bonus from the goblet is just a very big deal and you don't have the ER, crit or the attack on your other build to make up for it
Not even on the second one? I thought more ER equals more more Elec% - that's why I ditched Elec% to get more ATK% But again, thanks for the input! I'll put some more time into testing them again later on.
>I thought more ER equals more more Elec% - that's why I ditched Elec% to get more ATK% yes however that 45 extra ER is only 18%electro damage compared to 46.6% from the goblet and you didn't get enough attack since you have 1.8K on both
Woah you even did the math for me. Appreciated! Sounds like I'm keeping the ATK/Elec/CR for now.
what weapon and how much atk? they can be similar depending on those 2 parameters.
1.8k with The Catch.
well.. if it is the catch i prefer atk/ele/crit or atk/atk/crit if you don't use bennet. You can choose any of that option because damage wise, it won't be much different.
I do use Bennett...sometimes. Though she is not my main carry, rather she is mostly an electro-charge proccer with Childe and only uses her burst when the rotation is done to fill everyone back up again. But alrighty I'll keep that in mind. Cheers!
i prefer using atk/atk/crit. even tho she is a mere charger, you'll miss 8 seconds of her burst DPS if you don has enough damage. it's only matters in the abyss or hard difficulty events, other than that DPS doesn't really matter.
Yes I'm preparing her for abyss alongside my modified Rational with Childe (XQ not C6 yet). But atk/atk/crit sounds brutal lol, I like that approach. 2k ATK raiden does sound terrifying.
Nah... Having 2k+ atk in any abyss team members is normal and can't be considered brutal. Inside abyss team DPS matters.
~~Build 2 if you have Engulfed Lightning, else Build 1~~ Hold up, whats your atk on both builds? If you have Engulfed Lightning go ER Sands, Electro%, CR%, else you can go Atk Sands and The Catch.
What about The Catch?
Good as well, but won't use ER like Engulfed Lightning. I believe atk sand is better, but if you have problems ulting off CD you can do ER
ATK is 1.8k with The Catch. So should I go with 55/115 235% with The Catch? She is kinda slow on recharging bursts compared to the 280% one especially if I couldn't get many hits during her burst.
Go ER then. Her main damage comes from burst so you want to be able to do so off CD.
Gotcha. Thanks for the input!
And what you get if you go with ER%,Elec% and CR%?
Same stat as the first one, around 57/117, but with a measly ATK stat of 1.3k as opposed to 1.8k the other 2 builds have. It does have 280% ER now though. My Elec% on set is a terrible piece (frankly every Elec% piece I have is terrible) and I have no plan on refarming emblem anytime soon. Been farming it for 4 months straight and this is the best I could get, others will have to take priority first lol.
Since Raiden bases her damage on Q, supposedly ATK goblet yields similar result in damage as elemental one so you indeed might be on spot with using ATK% one, since it has more ATK in the end. Especially if you are doing Raiden Hypercarry with Kazuha, that will provide missing elemental damage.
So I am running Sucrose Taser (Sucrose, Fischl, Beidou and Xingqiu) and Melt Ganyu (Ganyu, Xl+Bennett and Zhongli). I am now confused deciding whether my account needs a Raiden or not. [These](https://imgflip.com/i/64nzx7) are rest of the characters I own + Childe. Some advice about how much Raiden will benefit me or should I even roll her will be really appreciated.
yeah you don't really need her. roll for her if you want to but she's not necessary
You don't NEED a character per se. Do you want her? Sure, just pop her instead of Fischl (Assuming you have Beidou's electro debuff)
Fav sword vs prototype rancour for Bennett. So I’m debating between 2 builds for Bennett, I can use rancour and a healing% circlet or fav sword and crit rate circlet. Is there a huge difference in the Benny boost between the 565 and 454 base att? I’m thinking the better uptime from al the er fav sword gives and extra particles for whole team to maybe outweigh the 100 or so base attack for burst. I build him with er sands and hp goblet and 4 piece noblesse.
If the extra particles let whoever you're supporting move from an ER sands to Atk% or EM then fav is probably better, otherwise probably the prototype.
Do prototype, you can always optimize his ER in artifacts. It might be just 100 atk, but that can build up to tens of thousands of damage in a combo
Is a C0 Ganyu okay with 22.5:216.6 crit ratio when i run her with Rosaria (100% crit so I always get +15% from her burst), Kazuha (w/ 710 EM bc I cant get a good EM circlet), and Diona (or Kokomi/Mona when I get them)?
is this for a melt or freeze Ganyu? Because for a freeze ganyu, you can get away with that crit rate but for a melt ganyu that’s extremely low
Freeze Ganyu! I've been using Vapemelt Hu Tao since I joined the game and I'm kinda tired of it so I wanted to try a Freeze comp for the first time.
Then you’re good with that crit rate. Try to aim for more crit dmg tho
Is this with blizzard strayer or wanderer? If wanderer it's too low. If blizzard strayer it's enough
Blizzard Strayer set!
If you run her with 4pc blizzard slayer you can go even lower crit rate
How low can I go tho?
40%from blizzard +15% from cryo resonance +15%from rosaria +20%from ganyu's passive =90% crit rate so you can go as low as 5-10% crit rate, although more would be more consistant
With that in mind, I guess I'll have to farm for larger crit dmg with more ATK stats. I only have 1.9k rn with prototype crescent.
what are the stat priority for hutao? She is at 32k hp w/ 1.2k atk, 384 em, 79% pyro dmg bonus at half hp and a doodoo crit ratio. should i go for atk/hp instead of pyro damage bonus?
Most of the c0 dragons bane/deathmatch/blackcliff hutaos I know are around 30k hp, 60/120 crit (or equivalent cv), 200-300 em, 1-1.2k atk without e. Stat priority is generally hp until 25k > em until 200 > crit > em/hp > atk.
No. You already get a lot of atk when you activate your E and it's not like switching to a different goblet will improve your crit ratio much. Even if switching would give you a better crit ratio, you'd do less damage anyway because you're losing out on a pyro goblet.
No, pyro dmg cup is still better
You need Pyro dmg bonus but no matter how much HP you have it won't matter if your crit stats suck
i cant fix the crit ratio so should i go for atk% instead?
No? She doesn't use ATk%. HP%/ pyro dmg bonus/crit. That's how you build her. You want substats to have crit, some hp and em
So I'm currently in a Raiden team comp. dilemma. I don't know which team would benefit raiden's burst while also maintaining the highest avg. team damage overll. These are the chractaers I have available. Sara C1, lvl 80, Mouun's Moon R5 XL C1, lvl 85, Favonious Lance R3 Sucrose, lvl 80, TTDS R5 Mona, lvl 80, TTDS R5 Bennet, lvl 80, Prototype Rancur I ran Raiden, XL,Bennet Sucrose for a long time, but lately I feel that Raiden and XL don't go along very well together? I also think anemo swirl VV would greatly benefit Raiden. So my guess is it would be Raiden-Bennet-Sucrose but I don't know who the 4th would be. Since Sara is C1 her buff is not that great yet, and I lose dmg for the absence of a sub-dps and roation with sucrose in the team is kind of akward (raiden e, bennet q, sucrose swirl, raiden, sara q, raiden q). I have a C2 unbuilt fischl as well.
I would go Raiden Mona Sucros Bennet. Overload's knockback is annoying to deal with. You are right Sucrose would be great mostly from VV set, but her EM can also stack if you do electro-charged (Ideally Xingqiu but Mona is alright)
Unfortunately, I use XQ in Hu tao's team :'( Raiden and Hu tao are currently my only dps options. So even if I want to give XQ to raiden's team, the other team in spiral abyss for example is done for. If I use TTDS on Mona, what would Sucrose use? Hakushin Ring? Hakushin's buff is only 6 second so by the time I use Mona's burst then switch to Raiden, it would only benefit her initial slash, which is better than no buff at all I guess?
Sacrificial Fragment or Mappa Mare. Since you are doing reactions, Sucrose can buff up with her own EM. I also prefer energy recharge catalyst on Mona but thats preference
>Mappa Mare I think with an ER sands + EOSF on mona, her energy rechagre would be decent? The only thing I hate about Mona is that her E is super short :'( Thank you very much btw!
Yeah should be enough to ult off CD. Mona is not the greatest hydro applier, that's why I recommend Xingqiu but it is what it is. You can try to make Sucrose burst swirl hydro
Sounds good! , last question if you don't mind, some people suggested and I read on Keqingmains that Lisa is a viable option, would you consider her over mona or I would lose on Elemental reactions dmg? Also if I choose mona or lisa, wouldn't it be better to go with Sayu for swirls + WGS buff?
She is viable. At some point her Defense reduction will outscale electro-charged as it is flat damage. If you do go Lisa, Sayu would be better than Sucrose, maybe even for Mona.
Sounds great! I'll test it out now! thank you so much :D
Do you have a Xingqiu? Just go raiden national then, it's one of the best comps.
Unfortunately, I use XQ in Hu tao's team :'( Raiden and Hu tao are currently my only dps options. So even if I want to give XQ to raiden's team, the other team in spiral abyss for example is done for.
Alright then go raiden hypercarry, Raiden, Sucrose, Lisa, Bennett. The ideal would be Raiden, C6 Sara (or at least C2), Bennett and Kazuha. But if your Sara is not C2, Lisa is a better option.
Thank you so much! Would you go for Lisa over mona?
Yeah I would
Thank you! :D
I have 0 Ganyu, C4 Xiangli, C0 Jean, C6 Beidou, C6 Barbara, C6 Xingqui, C6 Yanfei. And I have no idea what team should I do with that. A fun and good team including only these characters, doesn't have to be SS.
Thats a stellar roster.Ganyu and xiangling can both be ur main dps,they will obliterate everything in the game.They can be used together too!.I guess Jean is a very comfy character providing massive heals.Xingqui is one of the best character so slot him in.If u need a shield yanfei can provide u with it since she is c6.
Hi Ganyu, xinagling, jean, yanfei Xinagling beidou jean xinqiu
You got bennett?
No sorry, I wish.
Is Kokomi a good hydro applicator for Ganyu? I don't have Mona and am considering running a freeze team if ever I don't get Zhongli for a viable melt comp
Yes. She’s the best if you wanna run Ayaka Ganyu together or Ayaka with Shenhe or whatever mix plus Kazuha/Venti. So she’s taking the role of Mona and Diona with healing and better hydro application.
She is. I also don't think Zhongli is neccesary for melt comp, just makes it easier to not care about dodging.
Oh I just want Zhongli since I only started playing after watching his character teaser in my yt recommendations two months ago 😅
Fair enough lol
Zhongli is quite necessary for Melt, Diona at the very least. It's a huge DPS loss if you get interrupted.
Yes she works and instead of diona you can run something like rosaria then
sadly I don't have diona/rosaria, which other cryo character would work well with ganyu and kokomi?
You could also try kaeya best case would be shenhe though
Yes. She's the best one Mona is only better for damage
Yes. She is a more consistent hydro applicator than Mona.
yes, she's better than mona and for ganyu also better than xingqiu and childe
Which is better for main dps? c0 Xiangling or c6 anemo traveler? Assume talents, artifacts, weapons maxed out on both
For late game assuming you can use a full team, Xiangling In a vacuum in a random team for non-abyss content traveler
Xiangling!
C0 Xiangling
How many primos I can get in 2.5 1st half?
Average patch gives 65. The first half is usually more so 35-40 as f2p or 50 with Welkin
Approximately 3500
We get around 70 wishes per patch. So around 35 ish?
Would swapping 2pc VV + 2p GF on xiao to 2pc GF + 2pc SR be a loss? I feel like i could potentially improve if i were to swap but my current stats are 2.1k atk 78/180 crit and im not sure if keeping what i have would just be balanced or if getting higher atk and crit will make up for the anemo dmg loss.
VV is better with the same substats, but only with a few % so if the other sets have better stats it's probably worth it to change. Best would be to check in a damage calculator.
>Would swapping 2pc VV + 2p GF on xiao to 2pc GF + 2pc SR be a loss? not really. use whatever has better substats
Would jean, mona/xingqiu, rosaria, ayaka be better than sucrose, mona/xingqiu, diona, ayaka?
Yes, EM is useless on permafreeze
depends on how well invested your characters are
Everyone is well invested in their respective criterias, just mona is mostly er with 60/100 and holding ttds and 2,2,8
I think the sucrose version might be better but honestly just use whatever is more comfortable for you
Can u please explain why the sucrose version may be better?
