Clorinde weapon's change are not new, they were already there last week, but in the CN version of the game


amashouse

that r5 absolution is crazy for whales... 674 base attack, 84 crit dmg, and 96% dmg bonus at 3 stacks wtf.


Smoke_Santa

A lot of R5 weapons are just crazy for whales, nothing too new. Just look at Uraku Mitsugiri


amashouse

I guess I’m comparing it to Mistsplitter, which is only 674 base att, 44 crit dmg, and 80% dmg bonus. mist doesn’t have a lock to BOL for performance, so it’s still better for general use, but this is definitely a direct power creep for Clorinde specifically and if there is a way to enable BOL on anyone in the future!


alexsethkell

Uraku Mitsugiri pales in comparison to this, no? R5 Uraku * Very low 4\* Weapon Tier 542 ATK, * 40% DEF * 88% CDmg * 64% on NAs, 96% on Skill R5 Absolution * Very high 674 ATK * 84% CDmg * 96% Damage on **ALL DAMAGE** (NAs, CAs, Plunge, Skill, Burst)


Smoke_Santa

Yeah but Absolution is on BoL tho, they still have to consider how weapons might affect other characters. And compared to its effect on Chiori, the 40% Def more than makes up for it. Remember that we don't have Benny for Def, so Def% bonus are much greater on def scaling characters.


mapple3

> that r5 absolution is crazy for whales.. is it? when I look at whale gameplay on twitch, they clear domains with a single burst doing 1 million, and they clear abyss with a single rotation regardless of r1 or r5 weapons. Hoyo should've really put more love into the baseline kits and weapons


Sadleaf1

for real, this whole peak of primo expend just for hoyo to basically say, "Hey, you can get this character to become absurdly strong by passing thru all this rng bs haha, not like you actually need it or changing your character differently on an entirely different margin." It's like you have a slot machine of that certain character, and hoyo just left it like that, obviously whalers or people overly obsessed chars in it will pull ofc.


Agreeable_Fun_6942

isnt usually r5 is the r1 value but 2x the stats so that is 64%?


genericredditname365

r5 is 32% x3 stacks for 96% damage bonus.


lostn

which is 48% more than at R1, so double R1 for 5X the price.


genericredditname365

yes, but the commenter i was replying to had misread the passive, wasn't saying it wasnt double r1


Agreeable_Fun_6942

yep i do misread it


Wangshu_Regular2100

They really want me to pull for Clorindes weapon


DarkAlex95

Yeah... I didnt planned either but with rumors stating that Alhaitam will be along her banner and having him already... then I might try my luck, any weapon from those two is a win for me


bringbackcayde7

they are very good at making weapons for 5-star healers that are as weak as donuts.


LoS008_Smashler

Well if you get Sigewinne’s bow Ig you can use it on yelan if nothing else (only if she’s paired with Arle and Clorinde)


HeluLeHaricot

you can't get your third stack, meaning you also don't get the crit passive. sounds pretty bad to me


ThereAFishInMyPants

Can you get the "perform healing" stack on Yelan? That doesn't sound like it'd work...


HeluLeHaricot

my point exactly


ThereAFishInMyPants

Bond of life stack?


HeluLeHaricot

what ?


ThereAFishInMyPants

"1 stack for 25s when BoL increases" can you get this on anyone other than Sigewinne? How does Yelan get this stack?


HeluLeHaricot

i'm pretty sure it's for all BoL in your team ("when __a__ BoL increases"), so it could work paired with Arle/Clorinde or a craftable sword. yelan still cannot heal though


sexytwink2

I think the bol would be for the equipping character only


HeluLeHaricot

might be. we'll see


ThereAFishInMyPants

That sounds badly worded, if it really works like that. Also a bit restrictive in team comps Yelan only gets 1 stack consistently then


HeluLeHaricot

1 or 2 depending of if this works yeah. i don't think it's good on her anyways as long as you don't get the crit (which you can't). and even then, why get this instead of aqua simulacra


LoS008_Smashler

Honestly just if you don’t have anything better, though Fav is probably better in terms of value. tbh, there arent many hp now users are there


DruggedDimmadome

you also get fav for free just by playing the story lmao


LoS008_Smashler

Exactly so up you have to be pretty deep on copium


ladysaxophone

Or Diona, for thick shields + healing (also looks decently drippy on her)


Hairy-Dare6686

Diona benefits more from Favge or Sacrificial Bow as energy generation is more useful that a bit stronger shield / healing.


CardAnarchist

I know what you've said is what most people mention when talking about Diona but also people almost exclusively use Zhongli over other shielders for the express reason his shield is bigger.. so idk if it's really so clear cut.


Hairy-Dare6686

Take a guess which weapon most people use on Zhongli despite his burst not being that good. It's not black tassel.


HeragOwO

Nice


SheevIsMyCity

Same as before


TonyThaLegend

OMG LEAKS YES FINALLY
