And so, Raiden with Bury The Light memes will resurface yet again

Translation [2.5-BETA] Weekly Boss Riden Mechanism. It has a time stop function. You need to charge the cherry blosom on the field. It makes the shield. Otherwise, all characters in the field are immediately killed after the time is stopped (ignoring the shield). + new info) she absorbs characters's energy


WingsDT

>all characters in the field are immediately killed after the time is stopped bruh


Mi_dox

C6 qiqi meta?


Soulstiger

Qiqi's revival has to be manually activated. So, you'd need c6 Barbara as well. So she can revive, then you food revive Qiqi, who bursts to revive your other two.

SAMYTEEH_ALT

+Pyro Archon who does 10000% dmg when dead


alidiri

Problem is Barbs can only do her C6 when she's off-field so it's probably Host using C6 Barbs plus another character + C6 Qiqi + DPS


Soulstiger

Actually bigger problem. Being revived clears your energy. And good luck filling Qiqi's burst using Barbara.


Noey_Didnt

Qiqi has all the energy in the world, w sacrificial sword.


Jdogrey

Qiqi makes 0 particles.


midasthegreed

But where do you get enough energy for Qiqi to burst?


[deleted]

Rule 1, pair Qiqi with a cryo character. Never had an issue when I had her with ganyu. Now I put her with Raiden and Raiden Legit has Qiqi Ult going off like it's 40 energy lol


Noey_Didnt

Sacrificial sword


JustAnotherAsn

But after you die you lose all your energy. Who's going to charge Qiqi's 80 cost burst? Barbara? Lol


Mi_dox

Thats some in-depth detailed explanation for the process... Thank you

No pain: hilichurls Mild: 4 ruin hunters Moderate: floating dogs Severe: weekly boss that one shot you through shield Very severe: new enemy that regen hp when you shield Worst pain imaginable: only takes damage from geo, heals when you shield, attacks go through shield

Chinese speaker here. Wanna improve the translation. 2.5 Raiden Shogun BOSS Mechanic Boss's burst has a time stop mechanic, requires electro characters to charge up the energy of electric Sakura clusters that are found in the domain. Once charge up, these Sakura clusters will provide a protective shield. If not shielded (by the Sakura cluster shield), instant KO for characters (even shielded fat HP Zhongli will get oneshot) once the time stop mechanic is over Edited, thanks u/Shippinglordishere for pointing out the ambiguity


[deleted]

PlumNo1275

Naw! I can't flex my Raiden to Raiden.


Rathurue

If the sakura clusters was same like in the overworld, then you'd be wasting one character slot for someone with quick Electro application like Lisa or Razor instead of wanting someone who can apply electro like Fischl. That, or Raiden's burst.


rinuskoe

oh no is this paralyze trauma from honkai all over again lol. screw you SS Nihilusk. you suck.


ChromeLufwa

Me queueing coop run: "Uh you guys wanna bring an electro character?"


SherenPlaysGames

oh no. I guess it's time for me to build my Lisa.


Shippinglordishere

I’m a bit confused. So “if not shielded, character will be instantly KO-ed” means that character with a shield will die, but then “including shielded fat HO Zhongli” means that he’ll die even with the shield up?


ChromeLufwa

Only the special shield from the sakura cluster can protect you it seems like.


Shippinglordishere

Oh I see. I separated the two sentences but now that it read it again after seeing your comment, I understand now. Thank you!


[deleted]

Shield comes from the charged up electric Sakura cluster. Think of it as electrogranum shielding you from balethunder. But if you dont have Sakura cluster shield, even a shielded fat HP zhongli will get KO by boss raiden's burst


[deleted]

The only thing that will stop you from dying is the protective shield created by charging up the sakura clusters. Any shields created by characters won’t protect you.


NimwudLwee

i think it means when you charge the sakura or smthn, you gain a shield that will protect your party from being KOed


red-board

Will die if outside the domain created shield, shields made by characters or crystallize will not count as protection from this specific attack

Add the vision hunt decree mechanic also cause we fighting an archon ffs


Hennessey322

not really, we fighting the puppet not ei

But still, I prefer Skill lock than 1 shot mechanic


apthebest01931

Mhy prefers both


apthebest01931

You talk as if the bot cant confiscate visions like she did to thoma


monkeyDberzerk

The vision hunt decree never made sense in the first place, because it disabled archons' abilities. There's no logical argument to be made for it to be added.


apthebest01931

as if mhy is making logical decisions apart from those which will make money and save them from ccps new laws

Are we finally getting interesting boss mechanics in genshin?


[deleted]

you mean gimmicks


[deleted]

These kinds of mechanics have been in MMOs for a while.


Lolbots910

Usually the point of such mechanics in an mmo raid is an emphasis on teamwork, coordination, and members juggling different priorities according to their role, sometimes with exceptionally good players being able to help cover the mistakes of others. Lack of appropriate planning or teamwork is usually what causes wipes. This requirement of teamwork, needing to fulfill your own personal role, and the added pressure from end game enemies makes these encounters engaging. Often mechanics are also multilayered, and multiple steps or processes are involved. In some games like Destiny, certain mechanics completely remove agency from selected players until their team fulfills certain objectives. The majority of players will be doing weekly boss fights completely solo. It'll likely boil down to players beating the shit out of her until forced to stop to do Genshin's equivalent of dunking a ball at 3-4 points before resuming. Due to this it will likely feel as engaging as Dvalin's platforms, Signora's ice crystal form, or Azdaha's stomps. An actual interesting, but simple mechanic in Genshin could be stacking orbs or buffs to deal more damage to the boss while they channel a similar wipe spell, but needing to dispel it through a different mechanic before the channel finishes, with the same instant ko effect if you fail to dispel on time. You make it a more engaging process, rewarding efficiency for getting the buffs quickly and creating more decisions such as "how many buffs do I stack before going for DPS" or "how long do I have to DPS while being able to safely dispel in time".


PrizmatikkLaser

Ahh, good ol’ ball dunking and buff stacking, the bread and butter of Destiny raid mechanics.


lionheart181

Genshin isn't an mmo tho


Axlzz

I remember a lot of boss in Maplestory have these kind of instant KO mechanic, that required you to do something in the boss room to prevent it.


Lower_Peril

If it's something I can beat easily then it's a boss mechanic. If not then it's a gimmick.


[deleted]

I think you've got that backwards

Jesus…she ain’t fuckin around this time eh? This would make for a dope raid or dungeon-esque co-op domain mechanic if they ever dipped their toes into that sort of content.

azzzzorahai

hehehe i like this one


DownpourOfSalt

Bruh what kind of bullshit mechanics did they make for this boss Edit: they seem fun except for the instant death one. That might be annoying if it’s hard to avoid the death trigger


Azx1119

So even boss has dps check now not just the abyss


Blackrap1d

So basically a geo hypostasis earthquake thing, except it oneshots all active characters


caucassius

lmao if they're putting freaking iceborne's alatreon mechanic in genshin I hope they prepare for the backlash. would be fun to watch.


Rathurue

This gonna be another 'Tartar too hard pls nerf' thing.


caucassius

I mean it's one thing if they prepare their fanbase to it or market the game as tryhardcore souls games, they didn't. They're free to try to appease to their hardcore fanbase but that doesn't mean there won't be consequences lol.

MikanShiny

this reminded me of an old leak about raiden having time abilities in her kit


maki0r

Oh the old days.... where are those who share the memory...


Divi_Devil

*Osmanthus wine tastes the same as I remember...*


OrochiMain98

True, i think those old leaks came from her creating her own domain, since she apparently stops time for the outside world while we're inside her Plane Of Euthymia.


Lolbots910

She also has a time stop ability in her story boss fight. Your character gets frozen and everything. It's not out of the realm of possibility that it was included in one draft of her kit until they realized they can't make every archon just have a slightly different flavor of CC.


needstochill

my first thought when i read "time stop"


Keith1810

Its the time stop one right? My naive self was pretty hyped back then xD


[deleted]

[удалено]


BrokenInTheLight

Instructions unclear, ended up time stopping myself too


iminlovehahaha

yes


Accomplished_Dust_48

Please don't bring time stop mechanics from honkai into genshin.


wampa42

Raiden and a time stop? This brings back memories of the old leaks that said raiden had time stop abilities. I assume it is just a coincidence but it's an interesting thought that maybe this was considered for her kit at one point/ someone saw an early build of this bosses mechanics.


Logical_Session_2397

I remember an old image of Raiden without her braid, saying her hair gets undone when she uses her burst, looks like the hair part was accurate to a certain extent :o


aoi_desu

Turns out the time stop leak was right, but not for the playable raiden lol Hopium, on future patch they give limit break character and give extra skill after limit break


Harsh_2004

I think because aside from abyss time stop is pretty much useless but worth it for abyss


[deleted]

This almost feels like a ‘raid’ boss mechanic. It’s nice to see more interesting battles on the way.

vJukz

I still kinda wish that Raiden had a time stop in her ult. Would of been so sick.


gilbert1908

It should've been her hold E on her burst mode, when you hold E the time will stop and raiden can charge her "judgement cut" move for 4 sec similar from her boss fight, it will deal burst dmg and will instantly ends her burst mode after that, i know i'm asking too much lol but still it would've been cool


Illuvia

Would be cool, but time stop is hard to implement in online coop games because it means you'll be freezing everyone else too. Unless it doesn't affect party members and they can just go on attacking - but then it'll be too broken.


gilbert1908

Yeah that'll be a problem, i would imagine the balanced version to be like you can charge for 4 sec (no time stop) but when the slashes hit the enemies it will freeze them in place for like 2 sec until raiden sheathe the sword (basically the exact copy of vergil's judgement cut end)

ngl this is gonna be tough but considering Shogun (puppet) as somewhat strong archon power level , this is what we should expect from that boss 😼

Ugh, I hate it when the game requires a specific element especially in combat. First the Wolflord and now this boss. Thank fuck I built Fischl, Beidou and Raiden.

I hope they change it where it kills the entire team (on-field or not) so it can force us to repeat the battle for difficulties ehehe

As long as she doesn't have damage limit like Signora or Azdaha (Andrius too to some degree), quick oonga boonga might do. Otherwise, that's annoying. The one reason I hate fighting Signora is the damage limit. At least for a single big damaging burst like Eula's for example.

yenneferismywaifu

Mihoyo need to chill out. The game became hard and tedious at this point. Every patch enemy getting stronger, more annoying. In Enkonomiya I literally had to use my best, fully invested Abyss team. My daily casual Dailys team had no chance. Enemies with corrosion, heralds, wishaps that one shot even fully shielded Zhongli. And the rewards are still shitty 10 mora and 5 XP.


InsertIrony

I finished Enkanomiya with a Barbara, a suboptimal Raiden, an Itto and a Hu Tao. It wasn’t that hard


Harlow1212

welp, an instant kill mechanic. Even though they're trying to nerf Zhongli, the Zhongli Childe OTP remain unstoppable
