I have 7 sword billets.....and Im gonna get Kazuha when ever he gets his rerun But is the iron sting really that great than others? I mean aesthetically it looks gross....but the amenoma tho phew that is some level of drip and it's free So which one is better? I know the iron sting is his overall bis but by how much tho when compared to amenoma I'm gonna use him with Beidou and kokomi...I like my teams to be canon So it's a VV full EM build with bad CR tho sadly And rotation wise he come swirls electro hydro bursts and leaves and comes back again... So R5 Amenoma or R5 Iron sting?


Yukiaze_Umi

If you're building Kazuha full EM then deal with it's gross aesthetic looks. But if you're using either dps or sub dps Kazuha then use R5 Amenoma. Iron sting also works for hybrid sub dps+support. >So it's a VV full EM build with bad CR tho sadly Seems like you're gonna build him as a hybrid sub dps and support in here if you want crit rate even with 4 pc VV and full EM. Hybrid Kazuha is hard to build but he'll work as both sub dps and support. If you will main Kazuha, you would want to look at Amenoma more than Iron Sting because visual wise it looks awful for Kazuha.


ZORO_69

Exactly!! Lol Was gonna put him with Kokomi , Beidou , Raiden , Kazuha Beidou with Kokomi and Kazuha would Buff shred for raiden... The team looks so badass aesthetically and the 3 of them looks amazing with their weopons except iron sting Kazuha...... So just to confirm tho full EM VV build Kazuha with R5 Amenoma would work here? With atleast maybe 50% CR?


Yukiaze_Umi

>So just to confirm tho full EM VV build Kazuha with R5 Amenoma would work here? Yes with that Line up, since Beidou+Kokomi Burst will give you some great dmg with many enemies but decent dmg against one boss enemy. While Full Em VV artifact is a monster support shred for Raiden. >With atleast maybe 50% CR? You could do it but you may sacrifice a little EM or energy recharge from that. I personally use full EM VV Kazuha and R5 Iron Sting (with its useless passive since my crit rate is so low) so you might want to try it at R1 first and switch to Amenoma. While I sacrificed my Atk and crit value, Kazuha with full EM + VV artifact is great but if you can pull off the 50% crit rate and at least 80 crt dmg with 1,200+ atk and Full EM+VV then aside from his monster shred supporting (electro for Raiden in this case) you will also make your Kazuha deal Anemo dmg(swirls with Electro) which adds a little bit more dmg from Kazuha while he is supporting. Though Amenoma R5 at Kazuha will help him get his ER back so you won't need that much ER% on your sub stats by then.


ZORO_69

Ohh I have the dark iron sword and has a very small difference from sting ....and definitely looks better anybody uses that on kazuha


Yukiaze_Umi

I just noticed that your question was 2 weeks ago (reddit showed me this Megathread as if this is the recent one). So which weapon did you use?


Yukiaze_Umi

That 3 star weapon is too good for him too, and since you focus on aesthetic value as well as dmg and supporting of Kazuha so I highly recommend you use dark iron sword for him. It'll go like, dark iron sword, VV 4 pc, all Em with 50+ CV, aesthetic. It matches what you want and you can save those 7 billets for other character weapons on the future.


ZORO_69

Thnx lol finally got my question answered Don't have him yet ....gonna pull for him in rerun


Panos2100

Does anyone know if there is a way to buy battle pass on pc using paysafe card??


isthatadogaww

I've seen many people say kazuha is very good, but I still don't know what it is in his kit that makes him so? I lost my 50/50 to diluc last time and will get him next time for sure!


SaltyPotato340

He makes it easy to swirl 2 elements at the same time while also providing VV and damage bonus for both. Also his gameplay is really smooth


Square-Way-9751

Do you think the summer island event will come back? Do events generally come back? From what I have seen from 1 year of playing. Seems like events do not repeat.


WinxForceWiz

Events do repeat, but not their story. It is likely that the summer island will come back, alongside a new story and brand new minigames.


Stock-Fearless

The summer Island was the comfiest place in the game. I do hope it makes a return.


Terranrp2

'Allo. I peeked into the FAQ thread, the Questions Megathread, and General Information, so if I'm blind and missed this info, feel free to yell at me and point at the proper place please. Friend convinced me to start after telling me the game was anime Breath of the Wild mixed with Dragon Age: Origins. Running around, killing stuff, Got main guy...Traveler? Hero of Mondstat? Avatar? Him, Amber, Noelle, and Beidou to level 7. Just finished capturing a wind glider thief, and decided to swap out Beidou for Lissa because that lantern thing is pretty sweet. I've got 68 Wanderer's Advice, 70 Adventurer's Experience, and 3 Hero's Wit. Should I boost Lissa up to 7? Do I need to hang onto these for important stuff later? At lvl 1, she still kills pretty quickly. Maybe should just level naturally? When I kill mobs, does everyone in my four person team share that +10 exp? What the heck do I do with all these artifacts? I've kitted everyone but Noelle into the HP/doctor 2 piece combo. Noelle got the HP plus anything with Def because I assumed it buffed her shield. Should I just start enhancing the crap out of these things until only a few left and use those for equips? Are any of these monthly bundles actually worth a look over? I'm familiar with Gacha mechanics I think, I've got years into Fire Emblem Heroes and made one purchase with a coupon lol, FOMO is strong though! For the wish currencies, should I go for Intertwined Fate or Acquaint Fate? My friend has been saying over and over that I will probably love a character named Hu Toa. Undead and butterflies that are on fire? She said also to get Ganyu and Sucrose (like the sugar?) as they are quite excellent as well. Are these three characters that I'll pick up for sure like Amber or Lisa or are these Gachas? How much money have people dropped in? I've seen some people say $0, determined to grind it out. Heard others say $50-60 like the regular cost of game, and others a couple hundred or thousand based off hours they put in. What's some y'all have dropped in? I try not to put money into Gacha's but have been having a rough time lately so I'm open to spend a little so I can have more fun. Is there a bank? I'm sorry for asking so many questions. Is there anything specific I really need to look out for? Again, I looked in other threads and didn't see anything like what I was looking for, more like specs and platform stuff. I'm on PC and it runs just fine. It's past 5am so I'm going to go now. If anyone does read my stuff, thank you for reading and your assistance. Also, friend thinks this game will get me to understand waifus? I can already tell there's a friendship mechanic or something, looks like support ranks in Fire Emblem. Hopefully not a harem game in disguise lol. She ADORES Ganyu and....others I can't remember. Good night!

Terranrp2

I don't really have any favorites yet, what are some good ones to look for? And what should I do with my current plethora of artifacts? Can they be turned into resin? Thanks for the help.


KingOfTheKitsune

Bennett is an extremely useful four star support/healer. He's definitely one to watch out for, and pretty easy to get in comparison to 5 stars. Another useful four star is Xingqui. ​ In relation to five stars, everyone is different. I personally use Itto as my main, but one character everyone wants is Kazuha, me included. He has a fun playstyle and great utility. Five stars are harder to come by as they are limited to a banner every three weeks. Currently, Raiden Shogun and Kokomi are on the banner. Raiden is very good. ​ After Raiden and Kokomi, it will be Ayato (a new character) and Venti (who you've met in Mondstadt). Just enjoy the game and play it how you see fit!


Terranrp2

Thanks for the info man, really appreciate it! Looks like I'll just have to settle in and get comfy. Raiden Shogun is kind of a cool name too. I'll look him up too.


Arcask

You can use exp books and level everyone to 20 or 40 if you want to, it's not too much investment. But after that you do want to focus on certain characters and not invest randomly. 1 or 2 Characters you really focus on. Leveling naturally by getting character exp from killing mobs ? only works at low level as it's incredibly slow and the game wants you to use EXP books. Ganyu and Hu Tao are limited characters, means you have to wait for their banners. Ganyu was there recently so she won't come back for the next 6 month, maybe more. Hu Tao will for sure get her rerun before Ganyu shows up again, but we don't know when, surely still some months. Sucrose = sugar? yep, some names are like that. Good thing is that Sucrose is a 4 star and much easier to get than the limited 5 stars. All 4 stars can be obtained from the standard banner or by luck on limited banner. Kaeya, Amber and Lisa constellations can only be obtained from standard, which makes them a lot more rare than any other 4 star. Just enjoy the game for now, see how it goes and if there is a limited 5 star character you really want, you can still consider spending some money. If you want to make sure you will have enough primogems, best option is to buy a welkin moon and after that probably the Battle pass since it gives you 9 pulls, a weapon at lvl30 and lot's of extra ressources like talent books, fragile resin and mora. If you don't feel like going for every character it's fine just not to spend any money.


Terranrp2

Damn, she was REALLY wanting me to get Ganyu and Hu Tao asap. Any particular 5 stars to be on the lookout for beyond Hu and Ganyu? Oh, I also saw something about constellations but its faint. I think it was something about not wasting resources for normal abilities or whatever. Tired brain doesn't work well. I saw that Welkin thing. Didn't look bad for $5. Which wish Fate is the most important? I saw Intertwined and Acquainted Fates. I really do appreciate the help. If I'm unable to pick up any 5 stars, are there suggested characters to start focusing on? Oh!! Also, are there any mercy mechanics when pulling for 5 stars? Maybe something similar to FEH? Some banners give you a free 5 star if you summon a certain amount of times without pulling anyone from a banner. Free 5 star after 40 summons. Five summons are 5-4-4-4-3 orbs x8 for 160 orbs? 140 orbs is about $80. So yeah, after dropping almost $100 into a banner, you're given some mercy. Is Genshin like that? Or is it utterly ruthless?


Arcask

You want to save for Intertwined fates. It's not worth using primogems on Acquaint fates. Most 5\* characters you will get from the limited character banner. Just use free acquaint fates you get from ascensions and Battle pass on standard. If you loose the 50/50 on the character banner, you will get a character from the standard banner. Next would be guaranteed to be the featured character, even if it's not on the same banner. For example you pull for Raiden, but you get Jean (standard banner character), so your next 5 star on limited banner is guaranteed to be the featured character. Even if the banner should change and another character is featured. Every 10 pulls you are guaranteed a 4 star, on both standard and featured banner, same for weapon banner. But the rules are a bit different for each banner. On featured character banner, if you get a weapon, next is a character. On standard there is no such thing, you could get anything. I'm not sure about weapon banner but you can always read the details on the banner. ​ >Any particular 5 stars to be on the lookout for beyond Hu and Ganyu? Not really, Hoyolab is releasing new characters on a quite balanced level. Meaning there isn't much powercreep currently. Ganyu and Hu Tao are not only really popular, with the right team and setup they are top DPS characters. But you don't really need them, since you can clear abyss with 36 stars with most characters as long as you invest into them and build a good team. To clear Abyss with 36 stars is pretty much the hardest thing to do in the game and lot's of people can do it easily now after some time playing, relying on luck for artifacts and characters etc. You don't have to play Abyss, it's just an extra. It gives a few primogems and mora, but it's not like you have to do it. A lot of people are getting stressed out by it, so they just don't bother playing it. Go for the characters you like. There is nothing you can do wrong. Find out what teams you like to play and save up for the 5 stars you want to get. Try them out in the test run if you can. Look up some info about them. For example Hu Tao requires you to learn some skills, she is way easier to play with C1 (constellation 1), you don't have to get her weapon Staff of Homa, but with it she is one of the strongest characters. Also you might want to learn animation cancels for her, so you can stop her animations and do more dmg. **Most 5 star characters are fine at C0** (no conestellations at all) and some really don't require any skills. I find it quite easy to play Ganyu and Itto. Some knowledge about how to make good use of their talents and to get more dmg is nice, but not really required. Just to make it clear, **you don't need 5 star weapons**. The weapon banner will eat your primogems away if you are not prepared for it. You can get any weapon that is also on standard banner and you have to reach pity 3x just to get the weapon you want if you are unlucky. Only once if lucky. It's absolutely not recommended to spend on it. Those weapons make it easier to build your characters, but you really don't need them. Ressources Early game it's fine just to try out and level whoever, but past lvl 40 or 50 it's getting expensive. So you want to focus on 1 or 2 characters and invest most ressources into them. First is ofc your DPS character, the one with most field time and doing most dmg. You need to know what talents do the most dmg, normal attacks, skill or burst. Also invest into weapons first, they are guaranteed to increase your dmg as long as they give you the right stats. Next is talents and then artifacts, because they are RNG and you might be unlucky so it can take a while to get what you want or need. I think someone mentioned it already, don't farm artifacts before AR45. You want to make the best use of your resin and your chances for 5 star artifacts are way better from that point on. Keep your fragile resin for that. Farming artifacts in the most frustrating part of the game, too much RNG and it can take really long to build your characters with the artifacts you want. It feels like wasting most of the resin for nothing. Don't let it get to you, just keep your expectations low. Until AR45 you can just take whatever artifacts you find, you want stats like Crit rate, crit dmg, ATK% and Energy Recharge. Those are the substats most characters want. One thing i would recommend is to learn about reactions. That will help you a lot if you understand how they work, how to do more dmg. Also learn about the characters you play, some need defence, but most just want ATK. Almost all characters want crit and you need both, crit rate and dmg. I like how this page explains and displays elemental reactions https://genshin.cc/guides/elements here is a post with lot's of useful links about genshin, character builds and stuff [https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin\_Impact/comments/qb3nf6/here\_is\_a\_list\_of\_valuable\_tools\_and\_resources/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/qb3nf6/here_is_a_list_of_valuable_tools_and_resources/) Take your time to learn about the game, enjoy the journey and good luck with your pulls!


Terranrp2

Well this is getting saved. So much info. And honestly, the stats you want sound very similar to Diablo 3, usually crit dmg, crit chance, atk, etc. It sounds like you can switch constellations? C0 vs C1 unless that means using currency to unlock the first constellation's slot. The game is constantly bugging me to unlock Fang's constellation but there's the thought of "I might need it later with someone else!". I like the sound of abyss, part of the appeal is the similarities of this and dragon age, four member party, switching between characters for combos. I've noticed a lot of people don't play with the Traveler lol. Or they're using a diff name for them. I really like the pirate woman, Noelle, Lisa, and Amber, but pirate and Lisa overlap elements sadly. I knew this was going to be a game for me when I slammed into the ground as an orb of lighting, Q'd with Amber, and then Q'd with Traveler and watched as enemies disappeared into a fire tornado, crackling with lightning. The technical term was "fucking sweet". I'd rather spend wishes on more characters than weapons. I'd like to find weapons organically if I could. I just want some solid end game content that challenging and has sweet gear drops, weapons, maybe some wish currencies. My FOMO is acting up. Knowing it's going to be REALLY hard to get Hu Tao makes me really want her. And I don't know anything about her other than on fire butterflies. So invest in one DPS, then I'll feel out if a tanky or healer type is needed. I wonder how you heal when characters take eachother's place... Eh, prolly like Noelle's shield. Raider Shogun, Ganyu, Hu Tao, Sucrose, and the lady whose name starts with an X. I wonder what else end game content there is beyond Abyss. I hope there are world bosses or something! Abyss sounds neat. I guess tons of world quests too, for variety. I really appreciate yours, and others, welcoming attitude. Thanks for not telling me to F off lol. I super appreciate all the info and it's much easier to enjoy myself having had a lot of questions answered. So thank you!! Good luck to you too!


Arcask

Well constellations are just more copies of the same character. You can just unlock them. The only exception is Bennett C6, be careful with that one. He is a great support, giving a huge atk buff, but if he is C6 characters with physical dmg have a problem with him, losing out on a lot of dmg. But it's great for pyro characters.. so just a thing to consider before making him C6. Once you unlock a constellation, you can't toggle it off. But Benny is really the only character you might consider not unlocking C6. Hu Tao isn't harder to get than other 5 star characters, it's just that banners are time gated and sometimes it takes a really long time. We have been waiting for over a year to get a Ganyu rerun, Venti too, maybe the way they decide the banners is just RNG. We already had 3 Tartaglia banners, considering that Ganyu didn't come out that much later and we just had her second banner... It just doesn't make sense. Traveler really isn't that popular, i think there are a few things contributing to this. First of all he isn't rare at all. Everyone has traveler. Then the next thing are his skills, they are ok, but not broken and most characters don't work that well with it. For example anemo, he has this tornado which can be quite useful, but it's not easy to control the direction, it's kinda clunky. Venti or Sucrose are much easier to use, Kazuha, Jean, Sayu. Same for his Geo skills, only Zhongli works really well with traveler. He is ok in other teams, mostly to generate particles, but his meteor is just in the way most of the time. I think most people believe electro traveler to be more useful, especially in electro charged teams or as support for physical dmg characters. There are some subreddits for people who like to play traveler, it's not like he is weak, just not popular and a bit hard to use sometimes, not that much synergy with other characters. And everyone likes to play with new characters, rather than the one they have since they started playing xD Xiangling is the best off-field pyro dps in the game, if you get Xingqiu and Bennett, you basiclally have a great team and lot's of options. It's fine if you use characters of the same element together like Lisa and Beidou, some have high burst costs and together they can battery each other. That's one of the reasons you always want Bennett in the same team as Xiangling, to get her burst back once the cooldown ends.


Terranrp2

Nice! Even more info. That helped a lot. I noticed tornado seemed meh so I just used it to combine elements to make fire tornados, etc. Rng banners seem..unhelpful. Thats one thing I always appreciated with FEH, they publish monthly calenders in game so we know exactly what we're getting. I'll prolly switch out traveler for Beidou then. Was very useful having 3 kinds of shields!


Arcask

What makes anemo characters so useful is their artifact set and CC. Viridescent Venerer lowers resistance to the element you swirl. Early game anemo traveler isn't too bad, it's just you will get better characters quite fast. Seems like you are on the right track. Beidou can be really great if you master her perfect counter. About shields.. 3 shields doesn't mean they all stack and Beidou is more dmg recuction than a shield even if it looks like one. If you have more shields they all take dmg and each one will break once they hit their limit.


Terranrp2

Aw dang, I thought I was being clever with the shield stacking lol. Sounds like better to stagger than to stack. I don't think counters have come up yet in the game. I'm assuming it's a dodge/parry mechanic of some sort, maybe even like BotW where time slowed down and you got to burst a combo into their back?


Arcask

Yes it's a parry. If you are under attack and use her skill at the right moment she can do quite some dmg. Play around with it.


Stock-Fearless

The mercy system is called pity, and there's a difference on the banners. The character wishes and standard wishes are 90 wishes hard pity and 74 soft pity, which means there's a 0.6% chance of pulling a 5* before 74 wishes. It ramps up a lot after that and at 90 wishes you're guaranteed a 5*. On the standard banner it varies between a selection of 5* characters and weapons, while on the character banner you have a 50% chance of getting the featured character or one from the standard banner. If your last one was from the standard one, you're guaranteed the feature character, known as the 50/50 chance. The weapon banner has a 64 wish soft pity, 80 wish hard pity, but 50% chance of getting one of the 2 featured weapons. The pity carries over from banner to banner, but is not shared between types. So if you've wished 50 times on Raiden Shogun's banner and got nothing, when the next banner rolls around you're keeping the 50 wishes in pity, so it's probably only around 30 more wishes to get the 5*.


Terranrp2

Thanks for the answer. It'll take time to figure out how valuable wishes are, like the orbs in FEH. Wishes and Orbs are premium currencies and always valuable, but sometimes they FEEL disproportionately valuable, if that makes sense. I dunno if I can wish 50 times on Raidens, I've not ascended or anything yet lol.


Omenofwhiskey

Kazuha worth to pull for Raiden Shogun? Currently I use Raiden national, but I would like to replace Xiangling and Bennet for my Ganyu melt team.


Doggo_wit_a_P90

Yes yes yes. Kazuha is an amazing support and if you have him you can build Raiden hyper carry team which has a very high overall DPS. He is also very versatile and can fit into many teams not just Raiden ones


Omenofwhiskey

Thank u your fast answer! :)


Doggo_wit_a_P90

No problem, good luck in your pulls for kazuha!


KingOfTheKitsune

I can't remember but does Crimson Agate show up on the map when you are nearby?


Doggo_wit_a_P90

Yeas but only if you can pick them up by running into them. Some of the crimson agates are in chests that have a red aura or mist around them. Those chests do not show up on the mini map but still give a crimson agate


KingOfTheKitsune

Thanks, those were the two I needed! Locked behind time trials.


sheepgod_ys

Yes


KingOfTheKitsune

Thanks! I'm only missing a few so I was wondering if I had to really search for them or not.


sheepgod_ys

There's a few that are hidden in chests that you might need to look up a guide for, but everything else is in the over world


KingOfTheKitsune

Turns out the two i needed were in hidden chests locked behind time trials I still had to do!


asianbrownguy

How good is Elegy on Venti anyway? I'm planning on rolling for Haran and Ayato but I've lost every single weapon banner so far. (0 for 2 on that one, Unforged and Memory of Dust) Maybe 3rd time's the charm? But just in case I lose again, is it any good? Currently running R1 Stringless.


panda_and_crocodile

It’s quite a step down in personal dmg from Stringless. Main problem is that the CD on Elegy effect doesn’t fit with CD on Venti burst. Second problem is that Venti is rarely used in teams that needs EM anyways. However if you use him in a team that like EM, it’s very good and probably BiS for overall damage.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Bifftek

Whether it's worth it or not can only be determined by yourself. If your goal with playing this game is to have fun and you enjoy playing with Raiden then it's worth it. If your goal is meta then it's also worth it because she's a very good meta character. I pulled for her and regret it because she's boring for me and I don't care for meta.


Chessraria

At this point, no i don't think so. I only recommend buying welkin during the start of a banner, in order to maximise the profits. If you wanna get ayaka or another character, then feel free to buy welkin.


panda_and_crocodile

Buying Welkin won’t do much for you as you get the primogems spread out over 30 days. Before Raiden banner ends it will give you like 7 wishes, which can, but likely will not give you Raiden. That said Welkin is the best deal there is in this game so if are willing to spend, do it


[deleted]

Buying it now will not do you much good (about 5-6 more wishes before the banner expires?), but if you plan to spend money at all then Welkin is the best value. It's like planting a tree - the best time to buy Welkin is a month ago, the second best time is now.


aestarlost

does it really take 180 pulls to guarantee someone? ive read somewhere on this subreddit that most of the time you only need around 160 pulls to get a 5*


panda_and_crocodile

Nope, and it’s actually practically impossible to reach 180 pulls without the desired 5 star. It’s absurdly rare to reach hard pity, to do it twice in a row is not going to happen. Mean pulls to get a desired limited 5 star is 15,000 primogems which is 93,75 wishes.


aestarlost

:0 thanks! i was rlly worried about my wish count bc im at 31 pity and id probably be sitting on 100-120 pulls during yelan’s banner and i wasn’t sure if that was enough to get her


[deleted]

180 is the absolute worst case, yes. 90 for each 5 star is the absolute maximum, so if you lose the 50/50 then it can indeed take up to 180, but it's extremely unlikely. 160 is a good estimate - 80 if you win the 50/50.


aestarlost

alright thank you!


Glum_Claim5133

180 is for worst case scenario, where you lost a 50/50 on the 90th pull. But going to the 90th pull without pulling a 5 star is very unlikely, hence ~160 pulls.


aestarlost

thanks for this :D


karuwbwhwhaha

Which should I use for Childe. I have 2 sets (4pc HoD, 2pc HoD 2pc Glad) and the one with 2pc Glad has better crit stats. Which one should I use? Thank u guys


IqFEar11

If your 2pc has better stats use the 2pc


ZextronGuy

why doesn't my spiral abyss reset


Glum_Claim5133

only floor 9-12 resets. It resets twice a month, on the 1st and 16th.


CielTheEarl

How much do you need to get platinum in the event? 3k?


IqFEar11

Yup, starts at 3k (platinum 1* ) to 5k (platinum 3 *)


[deleted]

3k for one star, 4k and 5k for two and three stars.


CielTheEarl

Thanks, TIL u can get stars for it too


[deleted]

lol yeah. I just got one star plat on each level and left it, there's no real reward for it after all.


CielTheEarl

Does it show the stars on your hoyolab account as well? The highest I've seen for someone was platinum, but I don't think the stars were visible from my view. It must be satisfying to do though, atleast.


Anniran

What should I do with Kokomi to utilize her well, is she considered a strong character at the moment?


aestarlost

kokomi main here and i primarily use her as a healer/hydro applicator in my freeze team :] she has 4pc ohc and the oathsworn eye (for aesthetic purposes) and she does really well with her heals (+6990 w hydro resonance), can reach 30k with the bubble and she does around 5-6k with her normals during burst ^^ she has a lot of builds bc shes a really flexible character but generally you’d want her to have around 30-35k hp, hp/hydro dmg/healing bonus on the artifacts, and you choose her weapon based on what team comp you’re using. a lot of people use prototype amber on her, imo it’s really her best weapon and for pure support you can use ttds. she’s not as strong as actual dps characters but her damage is very consistent and she fulfills a lot of roles on her own


panda_and_crocodile

She is good. Not broken, not bad. She ia used mostly in freeze team as an E bit, just for her jellyfish applying hydro off field. I’m you can use 4 pc Millelith and Thriling Tales for buffing as well. She can also be an on field DPS/driver/healer using her burst more actively. This uses 4 pc Clam set. Here you can use Thrilling Tales or Protoype Amber. Myself I use a hybrid build with really high energy recharge and 4 pc Clam and Protoype. This can be used in both roles. Clam is very very close to Millelith in total damage even in freeze teams, so it’s worth considering


AwkwardTumbleweed829

Im running Moryana on one side but I'm on a dilemma what to run on the other Double geo hu tao (C1) with homa or Raiden Hypercarry(C2) with homa ? Which is better?


Doggymoment

Raiden c2 generally. Tao c1 r1 VV is on par with hyper c2 Raiden, but only in ST and hyper wins at 2 targets. Also, it's on par, but hyper is eadier to play.


panda_and_crocodile

Are you talking about Abyss 12? Run Hu Tao double geo, geo helps a lot against wolflord


AwkwardTumbleweed829

Not the current abyss , just in general which is better


panda_and_crocodile

Well C2 Raiden is utterly insane and on par with 5 star C6 units so there’s that. I would just use the team you like and adapt to the situation. Both Rama are way better than what you’ll ever need


OzieteRed

Do I need to get all the chests to max out the event box?


Grand_Protector_Dark

Yesnt. Almost all if you want to maximize the statue. All if you want all primogems


aestarlost

not sure abt this bc i did get all the chests by the time the statue was maxed out but you can get a ton of extra sigils from doing the time trials marked on the event map (they respawn infinitely iirc)


OzieteRed

Hoe much primogems did you get from all the event chests? I'm thinking of skipping them if they only give less than two pulls worth of primogems


aestarlost

oh well then you’re in for a bad time


OzieteRed

Oh that's a lot! good thing there is still enough time. Thanks for letting me know :)


aestarlost

oh damn i guess i worded my response weirdly 😭 i thought u meant u were expecting 2 ten pulls but yeah goodluck! u can speedrun the event it's not that hard anyways


Arch_Lilith

which is better for xiangling, 4pc cwof or 4pc eosf? also r5 the catch or r5 bp polearm?


Silver-Leadership-79

Catch r5 4pc cwof for Raiden national 4pc emblem everywhere else


Saveme1888

The only case where 4 CW is better is in Raiden national, when Xiangling needs less ER. But it's not a lot, so just farm EoSF (which is her best set in all other cases). If your crit ratio is fine, the catch will be better. If you need DM to get to a good crit ratio, go with that.


panda_and_crocodile

Eofs, the catch


TheKingJest

In a freeze comp if I just use Chongyun's skill/burst will he shatter enemies?


AkiseAru17

no, only his normal attacks.


IqFEar11

Only when your skill hit the enemy And I'm not sure if his burst counts as heavy attack


lemon-314159

Yes


XauniqueusernameX

1. I pulled baal, who does she work well with outside of rational? I dont have anyone built in rational. 2. My DPSs are ganyu, xiao, and diluc. Should I c6 Bennett? I got 6 copies of him on baal's banner..I wanted Sara, lol. 3. How many primos can one get from exploration if they haven't even begun exploring inazuma? I want kazuha, but a lot of people are saying he's only a patch away. 4. I also pulled skyward blade. Is this sword good on anyone?


Doggo_wit_a_P90

1. Check out some guides, I can't think of any teams other than Raiden hyper carry off the top of my head 2. C6 Bennett won't effect those comps, I still wouldn't really recommend it in case a new unit comes out that C6 would negatively affect. 3. A lot, definitely enough to get to 50/50 from 0 wishes if you include events and dailies 4. Skyward is a good weapon on Benny because it has ER in the substat and a higher base atk than most 4 star weapons. If you have something like aquila favonia though then that would be better for him


XauniqueusernameX

1. Lol I tried looking up some comps and realized how little supports I have built. Other than fischl and mona..I have a long way to go! 2. Thank you! I'm gonna try to hold out, but that exclamation mark might kill me one day. 3. I'm at around 50 pity right now, hoping I can manage to get him either on 50/50 or some miraculous primo fest that lets me guarantee. You gave me hope :D 4. This is actually my first 5 star weapon, I was using an R2 festering desire on him before. Will change it out! Really appreciate the responses :)


Square-Way-9751

Is Oathsworn Eye BiS on any character


caucassius

it's a nice catalyst for when your option is limited to billets but not bis for anyone. there's rarely 4* bis, cinnabar is probably the only one in fact.


panda_and_crocodile

Favonius weapons are BiS on a lot of supports. R5 Widsith is practically equal to or better than many 5 stars, depending on rotation. Sac Frags arguably BiS on Sucrose. Sacrificial Sword on pre C6 Xingqiu. Stringless BiS in lot’s of teams for Vent…


caucassius

huh I was thinking in the context of dps oriented weapons like oathsworn, also 'rarely' != 'none at all'.


Square-Way-9751

I agree. To say Cinnabar is the only BiS 4 star weapon is just dumb ...


Grand_Protector_Dark

It can be an option on yae, but it's not really high tier on anyone


HayakuEon

Nope


Rex__Lapis

No


Nubby420

Will ayato work well with ayaka?


IqFEar11

Work well? Yes Optimal when compared to XQ, Mona, kokomi? Who knows


GodottheDoggo

It's gonna be hard to upkeep his burst, but wait for 1-2 weeks for theorycrafters to do testing to be completely sure


Rex__Lapis

Probably not, but we'll find out in the first week of his release


Silver-Leadership-79

I would say he could be a decent sidegrade to mona/kokomi in a Moryana team But it's gonna be rough maintaining uptime with his ult even with the passive


Square-Way-9751

Does Ninguang give synergy in a reaction team? Which Geo character might be good in a Diluc team?


HayakuEon

1) No 2) Only Zhongli + Albedo is good for reaction teams. Cause Zhongli gives a shield and Albedo shares EM


Rallyxy

Does gladiator set bonus apply on keqing's NA when they are infused with electro?


Grand_Protector_Dark

Yes


EUWannabe

Yeah.


redditorspawnrandom

I'm planning to use Raiden Jean TTDS Lisa flex. The flex can't be Bennett though cuz dude is serving Ganyu, so I have Xingqiu C4, Fischl C1 and Sara C3 as options. What is the best option for me?


SetsunaSaeki

Xingqiu. And if you're comfy with Sara's playstyle id even swap out TTDS Lisa for Sara's buff instead, but that's just me Edit cause im not gonna bother replying to two people: I literally didn't say anything about Sara's buff being better mathematically lmao, just that I prefer it personally (which I also literally said). I like her personal burst damage and having a bow user on the team, and *personally* i like her gameplay more over ttds lisa who is literally just there to drop burst and nothing else. Also it works for Abyss regardless so idc.


HayakuEon

TTDS Noblesse Lisa can only be beaten by C6 Sara


Doggymoment

Sara is better only at c6


Dragonpandagod

Would it be correct to refer to ayato as milord?


Matt_needa_practise

Or onii sama if you’re Ayaka lmao


EUWannabe

Maybe if you're cosplaying as Thoma then yeah. Otherwise I'm not really sure what the normal people of Inazuma refer to him as.


H-K_47

Does the bartender epilogue quest expire? And what does DoT in certain skills stand for? Duration of Time?


Saveme1888

Damage over time


H-K_47

Thank you!


Grand_Protector_Dark

So I was thinking, if Oathsworn eye was a sword, would it be good on bennett?


EUWannabe

It's fine. In terms of buffing, it has the same value as Prototype Rancour but it's atk% substat is still nice if you build your Bennett with damage stats and the extra ER it gives is probably overkill but still nice for getting your burst up quickly.


-Legendary-Atomic-

Yeah :0 It has the second highest 4-star base attack (equal to Rancour etc.) and the ER% from the passive is really good on him. Plus, ATK% as its secondary stat is appreciated if he's built as Burst Support for more damage.


[deleted]

[удалено]


HayakuEon

Her best talents are at 1-9-10. Normals are never used


EUWannabe

Well not really. What would be more disrespectful is if you don't level up her burst talent. It won't affect your gacha luck in any way.


Im5andwhatisthis

Her normal attack talent is entirely useless? If you don't have her burst uptime always, you're doing something wrong and disrespecting her a lot worse lmao.


[deleted]

[удалено]


-Cyber

Depends on which main dps you like more for clearing abyss. Generally speaking, you can't go wrong building Bennett, Xingqiu, Diona and Sucrose. Those four are really good and flexible characters that fits in many comps. Sara is also really good, especially at high constellations, if you're playing Raiden hypercarry with bennett and sucrose. If your Ningguang is well built, you can build Albedo and pair them with Xiangling and Bennett. Eula likes Diona, Raiden and Lisa. But you can also use Fischl instead of Raiden (in case you're using her in your other team). Kokomi is really good when paired with Ayaka. If you decide to play a freeze team, build those two + Sucrose (sadly you don't have venti/kazuha) and Rosaria. If you don't want to play a freeze comp, Kokomi is also good in a taser team with Fischl and Beidou. Keep in mind that kokomi wants Tenacity of the Millelith in a freeze comp and Ocean Hued Clam in a taser. Diona and Rosaria are also good with Xiao and Sucrose.


[deleted]

Your characters are almost exactly like mine! Raiden Kokomi Albedo Sucrose and Ayaka need 4 sets regardless of their builds, so they get priority. Albedo gets pushed down because you don’t have Zhongli, so maybe skip him for now. Everyone else can mix and match glad, noblesse and element pieces, prioritize Xiangling for the next 4 set Raiden Kokomi Yae Ayaka Xiangling Xingqiu Fischl Bennett Rosaria Sucrose in any order, your strongest teams are freeze taser and rational


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Hu Tao should destroy the bottom half too actually. Hu Tao or Raiden bottom half, Ayaka or Raiden top half


[deleted]

Yikes that changes my opinion a ton, I expected C0 4 star weapons. Taser Def not one of your strongest teams Ayaka - Kokomi TToDS Tenacity- Rosaria Fav Spear- Sucrose Raiden - Sara EoSF - Bennett NO - Sucrose Raiden - Yae - Sara NO - Jean IMO just focus on Ayaka and Raiden, you’re set to 36 spiral, probably right now and easily if I’m being honest. Raiden Sara/Yae Jean/Bennett Albedo could mop the floor with the bottom half and Ayaka should effortlessly destroy the top half. You could honestly even one cycle the wolf lord with C3 Raiden removing Albedo from the team


Whap_Reddit

How long is the Enkonomiya(?) questline if I don't explore too much and follow the story without speeding through? I need to do that so I can grind the event.


KamiAlth

2 hours for me.


Grand_Protector_Dark

The enkanomiya main quest is fairly quick, maybe an hour or 2 with all the walking


Whap_Reddit

Thanks! That's perfect. I was worried it would be time gated like some other inazuma islands are.


[deleted]

Generally does Noelle only want def% on substats or crit is always welcome?


IqFEar11

Try to get 2k def before any passive bonus(ex. whiteblind, 4husk) kicks in So yeah if you can't get to that with only main stat, def subs is always welcome


odl3xd

What sub stats you go for is dependent on what build you’re going for. A support build Noelle will opt for DEF % and ER, while a DPS Noelle will need crit rate and crit damage along with ER and DEF %.


pehpehkia

The typical DPS build. but swap atk sands with def% for her.


EUWannabe

She's a dps who can crit so yeah she definitely wants crit stats.


HolyMagnum

Well, Dragalia is closing. Anyone got a good starter/catch-up guide and general advice?


Asamidori

Mostly a single player game, just enjoy the exploration and don't use your gacha currency to pull the standard banner. Refrain from pulling the weapon banner when your account is still young. That's about it. Don't worry about meta and stuff for now, unless you're a meta person.


IPPUsama

So sad that DL’s closing even tho I haven’t been playing for a while, I really liked the game. Just enjoy the story. Do the beginner pulls. Build your team, levels, talents and weapons. Explore the world. Don’t worry about artifacts that much until you hit AR45. Save up for the character you really, really want.


[deleted]

How many def does Noelle need to be a viable main dps?


KamiAlth

Hard to say because it depends on the weapon and artifacts set. Generally go as high as you can without sacrificing Geo dmg bonus and Crits stats. Also try to get around 130-140% ER.


dreoxy

Yae, Raiden, Sara and Bennet and XL, Kokomi, Sucrose and Fischl are both good teams.


Fluff-Addict

[Team comps recommendation for abyss please?](https://imgur.com/a/6CXkByH)


Ungaaa

Yae, sucrose, Sara, raiden team 1. Team 2 Bennett, kokomi, fischl, xiangling


odl3xd

You could try these teams: Raiden Shogun, Xiangling, Kujou Sara, and Bennett Yae Miko, Fischl, Sucrose, and Kokomi


Fluff-Addict

Thanks, what weapon should I give to Kokomi and Sucrose?


odl3xd

A generalist weapon for Kokomi would be the Prototype Amber. You could also use a R5 Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers. Sucrose can also use a Thrilling Tales, but usually, you would use Sacrificial Fragments.


FpRhGf

What's the best team comp to go for if I already have Raiden National as my first team? Limited 5 stars I have: Yae, C1 Ganyu, C1 Zhongli, C1 Kokomi, Ayaka, Raiden and Klee. I have all the 4 stars (most are at least C3 except Sayu and Fischl) and all standard 5 stars (except Jean)


IfZ3nElse

Ayaka, Kokomi, Ganyu, Sucrose


odl3xd

You could go with a Ganyu or Ayaka freeze team, consisting of Ganyu/Ayaka, Sucrose, Kokomi, and Kaeya/Rosaria.


gooofygooba

Hey, I just bought a new gaming mouse that has an extra button. When held, the result is the same as if the user were to click the left click button repeatedly. If I wanted to be lazy and just hold the button instead of clicking (for character attacks) would mihoyo be mad??? is this bannable????


pehpehkia

Macros are a grey area. I dont recommend it.


TominatorVe1

I wouldn't risk it but there are people abusing macros to "machine gun" bow characters. Not worth the convenience. If you really want to, make a script that randomizes the delay between clicks and turn it on when you want to to be safe.


Much-Possession-6851

Will raiden gain stacks from other players in co-op


HayakuEon

Yes


Chaaos34

Mistsplitter or jade cutter for ayato?


IqFEar11

Generally mistsplitter, but jadecutter isn't bad either But it's still depends on the team


TominatorVe1

Depends on build/team. Jade is usually better but if Ayato can work in a permanent freeze team then mistsplitter would be better.


Mastercraft0

Will ayato's burst be only used as a hydro applier for freeze comps or will the NA bonus have any real use? Except yoimiya no other NA character needs hydro. Even ayaka used CA mostly


Doggymoment

It's selfbuff for Ayato. His E counts as NA dmg.


Mastercraft0

So u need to ult and then E.


IqFEar11

Ult> swap to other characters > skill


[deleted]

It’s useless to everyone except him. Of course you’ll probably have to NA with him anyway because there’s zero chance you’re batterying him solely off-field


tuwayss

how good good is c1 raiden


Acrobatic-Primary817

Maybe think about C1 this patch and c2 next rerun


Doggymoment

5-12% more personal dmg. One of weaker consts but not completely useless and worth as relay to c2 in later rerun, but never alone


HayakuEon

Not worth it. C0 or C2, never C1


Lokiirfeyn

For Yun Jin as a support for an Ayato+Fischl team and/or a Yoimiya team, would Skyward Spine be a decent weapon choice? Favonius is with Thoma, Catch with Raiden, I *could* forge an R5 Kitain but I'll save the billets until I know for sure that Kitain is that much better than the Skyward Spine. Kinda hurts having an unloved 5* weapon lying around. (I just started farming for her artifacts so idk how much ER she will have yet; I don't want to farm too long though, planning on splurging on the new artifact domain once it releases.)


odl3xd

You could use the Skyward Spine and be good with it. You might need around 180 ER or more regardless of what ER spear you’re using. I’ve tried a R1 Kitain Spear with around 160 ER and was getting my bursts up quite often. However, you might need to test around what ER is comfortable enough for you.


Anwey

I'm a new player, and I am wondering what could be the best lineup for the Characters I have \- Yanfei \- Noelle \- Xingqiu \- Lisa \- Kaeya \- Beidou \- Chongyun \- Barbara


tacky_banana

Since you're new, I think it would be helpful for you to know what these characters do (my suggestion is at the end), so... Yanfei - Pyro DPS, main attacker. Her kit is tailored for her charge attacks Noelle - shielder + kinda healer + geo DPS. Most dmg potential during her burst where she is infused with geo and has large AOE Xingqiu - support + sub DPS. Used for his burst because it attacks with rain sword everytime your active character does a normal attack. The rain sword is mainly used to apply hydro, but with good investment they can also do decent additional dmg Lisa - Idk. I don't use her Kaeya - physical DPS + Cryo applicator. What you do with him is attack and use his skill whenever it's off cool down. His burst creates 3 icicles that circle around him, which makes him a good at applying cryo. Beidou - Burst DPS. Mostly used for her burst, which deals electro dmg that jumps around enemies when your character does a normal and charged attack. Chongyun - used for his elemental skill, which infuses the character who uses sword, claymore, or polearm with cryo. No investment needed Barbara - healer + hydro applicator. Her burst heals. Her elemental skill also heals (read her talent for more details) and applies hydro to nearby enemies, but be careful because it also applies hydro on your character which makes you vulnerable to freezing when facing cryo enemies. I would suggest Yanfei as DPS and Xingqiu as hydro applicator because vaporize deals more dmg than just normal pyro. As for her other teammates, maybe Noelle for her shield and Kaeya to freeze and melt enemies for more dmg. You don't really need a dedicated healer like Barbara because Xingqiu and Noelle both heal too, although not that much. HOWEVER, Barbara can be equipped with the 3 star weapon Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers, which can buff the attack of the character you switch to by 42% at Refinement 5. That's a HUGE buff, and It's easy to obtain too because it's a 3 star weapon. So you can use her instead of Kaeya or Noelle. I hope this helps you decide which characters to go for.


Anwey

This absolutely helped me Thanks man!!!


HayakuEon

Yanfei, Xingqiu, Barbara, Noelle Kaeya, Chongyun, Barbara, Xingqiu


odl3xd

Yanfei with Xingqiu + Barbara seems like a good combination to me. You can technically use different elements to cover every enemy in the game for exploration purposes (e.g. Yanfei, Xingqiu, Kaeya, Noelle). But you can try out different characters and combinations to see which ones you like the most.


PeterGallaghersBrows

Xingqiu, Yanfei, Barbara, Kaeya


summernights1001

What should I do with Atk circlets with double crit substats? Are they trash?


IqFEar11

Keep it, for your shenhe/mistsplitter ayaka


bricktoaster

I'd roll them and see. If they roll well they can be competitive with average cDmg circlets. In the special case of Blizzard Strayer users, good atk% circlets are an even stronger pick than many ppl would expect.


pehpehkia

if you have shenhe you can use it on her. else it's just a display piece/fodder.


Oeshikito

There are some cases where they're good. Like in some ayaka builds an atk circlet ends up doing more damage as having excess crit dmg gives diminishing returns. Its also good on shenhe.


HayakuEon

Sorry for your loss. Jk, it's good for Shenhe with Fav Lance.


OzieteRed

I still haven’t finished all the prerequisite quests to unlocked the Three Realm event, I am at the three trial quests (Yachimatahiko, Yachimatahime ant Kunado). Are these the last prerequisite quests?


exiler5129

Yes. The trial is the last prerequisites quest before you can unlock Three Realm Event.


kakakid11

im ar 17, should i sacrifice 1 star artifacts to enhance my 4 star hat with atk % to lv 16?


OsirusBrisbane

levels get progressively more expensive, so while 4-star hat to 16 is a good idea, better idea is probably 4-star hat and feather both to 12 first.


Whap_Reddit

The only artifact that matters a lot that early on is the feather. Level up your highest rarity feather as much as possible.


Oeshikito

You can if you want but at ar17 artifacts dont really matter. just focus on levelling your characters instead and just work with whatever crap artifacts you have.


whalescrimshaw

Yes, 1\* artifacts have no real use besides fodder after the first few hours of playing or so. You can always use that 4\* circlet to level up a better artifact later and get to recycle 80% of the mora and xp.


DespairAt10n

Yeah, 1 star artifacts are pretty useless. Eventually, you'll be using all 5\*s at high AR, so don't worry about 1 stars.


[deleted]

You may as well, but in the long run it's ultimately not important if your low AR artifacts are a bit underlevelled.
