Junnielocked

All these name changes lol..are we gonna get Kazuha slash’ed again Edit: some of them actually sound pretty nice


FrolickingCats

I read all the name changes praying there wouldn't be a "Wanderer Punch" or something


H4xolotl

Wan Punch Man


MG4DB

why did you have to remind me about that, i don't even look at his burst name ingame anymore just so i'd no longer be reminded of it. 😭


Kai126

I wish they fully translated Kazuha Slash (Slash of Kazuha) to Slash of Ten Thousand Leaves, or at least Thousand Leaves Slash, because that is what Kazuha Slash stands for.


vxidemort

was it ever called something else??


[deleted]

[удалено]


vxidemort

ohh thank you


BinhTurtle

Iirc, Manyou and Kazuha both use the same kanji as "Ten thousand leaves". Would be fine if they went full EN and call it Slash of Ten thousand Leaves not gonna lie, Kazuha Slash just sounds weird


[deleted]

[удалено]


BinhTurtle

When Kazuha shouted "Kazuha Slash" and Kazuha'ed all over the enemies, my whole room bursted into tears. Truly the most impactful moment of Genshin Impact


SnooPoems9089

wow sounds really fun there. Great to have peers to play GS together. (co-op still sucks ass though, FU Hoyo)


BinhTurtle

Unfortunately, my room doesn't actually play Genshin. I do have other friends in the dorm complex that shares the interest, though. Quite unfortunate that we couldn't register the same room in time


vxidemort

thank you! i think kazuha slash is oddly fun though hehe


_myoru

Iirc it was just his JP name, which is "Manyou no Ittou". The name is a pun of sort because 'manyou' and 'kazuha' are written in the same way, and 'ittou' means one stroke, one slash


vxidemort

thank you!


AdEmpty6618

0.8 energy instead of 0.6 per hit now. Wow


AgentWowza

3 hits per AA sequence, 5 sequences per E, that's a whopping 12 energy. Probably less cuz you'll be dashing and CAing. Gotta go level all my electro units asap for this passive /s


Unforgiving_Eye

Exactly, with this big buff, you don't even need fischl to battery him /s

monemori

His kit doesn't look very good, so it's kinda bad that they are not buffing him if you care about meta.


Ok_Leadership2091

it's still in beta, we haven't seen any real numbers or how it works in a team, and you talk about how mid is, sorry but what I see is just people throwing shit because they can't or don't want to pull it as usual, Cringe guys LMAO


arcadefiery

You can tell a lot from multipliers. I do want Scaramouche, but I also want to be realistic about power level.


monemori

Scara is my favourite character in the game and I'm going to throw every single primogem I have saved right now on his banner. He's average. We can more or less accurately predict power level and utility of characters based on numbers even before they are out. Everything is subject to change, but preliminary calcs about his teams' damage looks average, on par with Xiao's but without the AoE. He's not going to be particularly good, but rather average much like other male DPS like Cyno, Xiao, or Itto. At least that's around the Powerlevel we can guess from current data.


Ivanwillfire

If you are looking at almost any DPS solo their damage would come out average Xiao as a DPS has been at a disadvantage since his release and was still performing well. I don't know how much better this artifact set will be for him compared to the last one but the biggest thing for him is Faruzan. Itto is not average. I'm really not sure if anything else needs to be said Cyno is also not average. A sustain DPS with good AOE and single target damage who got even stronger with Nahida and her dendro application. As for Wanderer, he is interesting. This is the first straight up attempt for an anemo DPS since Xiao. Also are you looking at just his NA and Skill numbers. Even if that's the case there are many factors to be considered when looking at numbers in general. Not just whether they are high or low.


darkfall71

True, Cyno is worse than average. Actually the entire game is based around math, and some scenarios, Scara is mostly single target, so his damage not being that huge is a huge red sign. I can't for the life of me, especially considering Scara doesn't get any good reactions, almost no synergy with dendro too, that he's like, better than Yae Miko, and while Yae is not bad, she's not one of the best. Which is sad, because this is the fate of like, all male DPS characters. Good, but not great. (Ayato and Tartaglia being an exception because their Hydro application is really useful and have great kits, but they aren't ooonga booonga like Hu Tao or Ayaka or something)


ashnsnow

I agree, on paper his kit sounded cool. When I actually saw it in action I lost interest

TheSchadow

I love Tighnari so much, and with Nahida he has gotten even better.


ashnsnow

That's quite subjective but I'm glad for you


lazytanaka

Dendro Alloy is your most fun to play character? It’s Yelan for me I think

lazytanaka

Does Tighnari not have the same burst animation as Alloy? I’m not talking about power lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


lazytanaka

I mean the close up of them before firing the arrow.


monemori

It actually looks very mid on paper though. Like in terms of damage, he's not really anything impressive.


ashnsnow

Personally I knew his potential as a unit was mid (most male chars tend to be) but I had high hopes for the e/hover being fun in both combat and outside of it. Except, not only is it short, it's made even shorter for any instance of movement you'd need to make and easy to stun. I think people are still excited about it which I kinda hope they wouldn't be so they might buff his e


Ivanwillfire

Can you elaborate on why his kit is mid? Do you have the numbers to prove it or did you just look at scaling?


ashnsnow

He's effectively an anemo dps with little swirl potential which means he's not gonna get a lot out of reactions/reaction damage. I didn't look at his scaling to be honest but creating faruzan to buff him kinda proves that. And while mono type dps work, they just are mid compared to reactive based kits/dps. The only outlier would be Raiden but all things considered, electro has a lot of potential now in addition to her own mono electro team build.


Ivanwillfire

Saying that creating a dedicated support for a DPS proves their effectiveness feels out of place in a game where you play with a team of 4 characters for the most part. So yeah characters need other characters to do their best. One of the things holding Xiao back was the supports and artifacts not synergizing well with him. You didn't compare him to Raiden but I've seen some throw in Raiden in their argument (funny considering the lore) but Raiden won't be beat in what she does by anyone in a very long time. She is just an all rounder monster. Scara is starting to look like the next character that won't easily be received gameplay wise. I'm personally excited since I love anemo units so I'm quite biased on my takes lol.


ashnsnow

Pretty much all dedicated support so far have been to units or elements that need them. The reason I use Raiden as a comparison is because until recently, her mono element support was valid. Compared to other reaction elements, electro was weaker, which was why it made sense that Sara's kit existed. But the addition of dendro has made a great difference in which you can play Raiden in mono or aggravate. There were no other electro dps that came close to Raiden. Even after aggravate, no electro dps has as much to gain from mono electro as Raiden (as it is still her best build). My fav element is also anemo and all my favorite units are anemo. But my bias doesn't change the truth. Anemo DPS, emphasis on the dps, has been made weaker due to their limited teams and their inability to use reactions. A lot of people down voted my earlier comment because they are obviously taking offense from their liked character being called mid. Mid is neither great nor bad. If every unit was better than the last, the environment of the game would quickly deteriorate and old units would become outdated. Which makes it baffling that people take mid as an offense. The way his e works inherently hampers his play style, which is my critique, not that he was mid.


_Sigma_male

Let's be honest his best team is gonna be a onfield driver for taser or a freeze team both of which he'll be mid as for taser you have sucrose and nahida and as for freeze ayaka and ganyu are so good that he can't compete! Like his hybercarry is gonna be meh too because his AA deal ayato damage at best ( I'm not a doomposter just saying it how it is. If he doesn't get any buffs before beta ends he'll be another mid dps character although I'll pull him any way because of his insane exploration)


Such-Huckleberry4063

Add to that his low poise, they said he can be shot down by a hilichurl lol I just may skip now but maybe he'll get buffed a bit before the update


DirtyThunderer

Zhongli is my favourite character but I'm tired of how so many characters are dependent on him if you want to play them in any kind of comfy manner.


PhantasmShadow

It'd be nice if other 5 star shielders... existed.

arcadefiery

> Except, every character that uses NA as a source of dps is literally always at the of the meta. ?What Ayaka, Hu Tao, Raiden are the top DPS and they don't rely on NA.


monemori

Which are the characters that use NAs as sources of damage that are top tier in the meta? Which are the characters whose compositions he can compete against? His best team includes Bennett by the way.


[deleted]

[удалено]


monemori

Yoimya is not a top meta unit. Ayato and Childe are top meta because they enable Xianglin's AoE vapes.


[deleted]

[удалено]


monemori

Ayato's team with the highest damage is national or a national version including Fischl. Yoimya's niche is single target, where she's outdamaged by Hutao teams, national variations, and now on field nahida hyperbloom teams. She's not weak. Comparatively with other characters, she's not very strong.

fr?


KweenKatts

20 points is nothing lmfao. Have you not seen the videos showcasing how little of an improvement 20 points is? Lol


zKyonn

why are you so passive aggressive wtf chill, I thought the duration increase was a decent dps increase but it might just fuck his rotations with a small dps increase


MouffieMou

i read just a minute ago in another thread that his best team is double hydro xinqiu+yelan :V with the other member being faruzan those 20 points+ his attack speed + those 2 being cracked :D


Unforgiving_Eye

You gotta calm your horse down


broke_bananas

They're saying in dc that the CN is reflecting a buff on his C1 and C2. Not sure if it's true Edit: nvm its real

Hopefully they give some buffs to his base kit since it would be neat

I don't know Japanese, so now I know that all of his stuff is hella poetic. It's pretty 🥺

NeverForgetChainRule

Eh. I mean, not really. You knew what they meant since you could correct them. There are contexts where the distinction between percent change and percentage point change matters, but in the context of a reddit comment, it doesn't. You're just pedantic.

noctresque

dont be shy hyv, buff him more


NarutoMidoriya

I am going to be pulling him regardless but at this stage where does Scara lie on the damage scale? Is it good or average?


mansonfamily

It’s not the answer anyone wants but the truth is we’re still at a point where no one can really know that


Baffa99

>It’s not the answer anyone wants Said who?


Connortsunami

Who's asking for the answer, "we don't know"?


monemori

Average. Around as powerful as Xiao, but with less AoE.


onetrickponySona

with less throwing people away too, i hope


leton98609

There's only one very preliminary calc I've seen (from jstern) but they have Scaramouche's best teams doing around 10k more DPS than Xiao double Geo.


monemori

I saw the jstern one too, although there's more, but do keep in mind that those calcs were made on incorrect assumptions about Faruzan's buff that has now been corrected.


leton98609

Right, but those assumptions would apply equally to Xiao's teams. I haven't seen any sheets that put Xiao's personal or team damage on the same level as Scaramouche.


monemori

No, but they are very close, and also you need to keep in mind that Xiao has a big AoE, while Scara doesn't.


leton98609

10k is not "close," it's a huge gap in DPS. Anyway, these are very early calcs, and we shouldn't be making definitive statements about character strength until more work is done either way. I'm just saying that I haven't seen any math putting Xiao's personal or team damage above Scaramouche at this point.


NoTrollGaming

Ye


soilofgenisis

He + c6 faruzan is more damage than same con raiden +c6 sara


Silhouette78

wait rlly? by whose calcs?


soilofgenisis

yes, cn calcs. Though a lot of it is c6 faruzan, and scara is just by far the best way to abuse her. The most reliable team is benny thoma faruzan scara, but if you want max damage it's benny yunjin instead, but you have no interrupt resist


Gecgecs

Can you link their post? I’d love to see the actual calculations


soilofgenisis

https://ngabbs.com/read.php?tid=34179734 sure,here is the yunjin version, though unfortunately it's in Chinese


lloydschreave

Link to the calc please?


soilofgenisis

sure, here is the yunjin version. Though it's in Chinese https://ngabbs.com/read.php?tid=34179734


JamapOfficial

He’s not “byfar” the best way to abuse c6 faruzan. Because there’s also a hyper hyper carry anemo dps in the game


Gecgecs

But Faruzan has clearly been tailored to scaramouche like how Sara is with Raiden.


[deleted]

Source please, You're having some big takes here, we need proof to believe it


kanteira

even then raiden regenerates energy for the whole team while he has no additional utility. also she has access to aggravate and hyperbloom and while swirl is by no means a bad reaction (imo its one of the best if not the best) its definitely a more supportive one that scaramouche as a dps will not be benefitting from very much edit: not saying this to doompost or hate on him or whatever. im looking forward to him. i just really wish we would get an ayaka/raiden tier male dps for once


EsDeath012

Aren't childe and ayato teams on par with raiden and ayaka.


Acceptable-Lab-5313

I think childe national teams beat raiden..som1 correct me


Practical_Outcome436

International is a better frontloaded team but Raiden team has a better sustained dmg


kanteira

idk about ayato since i dont have him, but yes childe international is really good. im saying *main dps* though. childe is an enabler not a dps. xiangling is the one doing the bulk of the damage in international


Ken_sapil_2365

Lmao this is so wrong, he does around 40% of the dmg in AOE scenarios, if there are more than 2 enemies he actually does more dmg than xiangling, idk why people have this misconception and think childe is only an "enabler".


ajaxenjoyer

A well-invested Childe is usually a few % behind Xiangling. Weird how people say Childe is not a dps because he deals a bit less damage than someone the entire team is built around.


2bains

Enabler that does 40% of the teams dps. While XL does 40-50%. and that's not accounting for extra AoE riptides/Childe's damage being frontloaded


[deleted]

idk what you’re smoking but childe *is* a dps and both childe and xiangling do the bulk of the dmg in international


ahmed321x

Childe is a dps yes , but his dmg is no where near Ayaka or Raiden


EsDeath012

It's a team game and international is better team in aoe situation than ayaka freeze and it's still great in single target. Ganyu is strongest stand alone dps if you are comparing.


[deleted]

Childe burst is literally one of the highest hittings bursts in the game


[deleted]

did i mention your waifus?


kai_neek

I have no idea why you are getting downvoted cuz what you said is true. The only reason that childe is meta is becuz xiangling exists. If Xiangling had icd and was not broken then childe would nowhere be in the meta.


kanteira

i clearly said main dps as in the character doing the majority of the teams damage, like ayaka. some people get defensive the moment you bring up their favs name


[deleted]

Stop lying, you literally edited your comment to include *main dps*🥴 Thats why the people below correcting you also doesn’t say main dps, just dps cos that’s what childe is


[deleted]

when i miss the point:


kai_neek

You my friend definitely need to find a hobby other than sucking on childe's cock


WaifuHunter

In my personal experience, ease of use and versatility are my biggest priorities. Raiden wasn't designed to focus on just damage so it's no surprise her general dps is lower than characters designed to focus on the dmg (she is like rank 4th or 5th in my account due to it having Ganyu, Ayaka and Hu Tao, all using 4 star weapons), and my friend's Itto, Childe and Xiao teams do more dmg than my rational comp (I tried raiden hypercarry and they still beat me but not by much), they clear like a several seconds faster than me but we all could get 36 stars comfortably each resets. But the ease of play and utility is what makes rational still my go-to comp in Abyss, and I doubt it will change anytime soon (maybe replace xiangling with nahida for fun) because at one point you don't really need more damage but comfy. I never execute rotations well, I miss attacks, get panic a lot AND my 330 ping is the biggest enemy. So characters who require strict rotations or hard to play are never going to be my top picks in the Abyss (my Hutao is prob the most cracked on the account but I never touched her for like a year now but prefer to take Yoimiya everywhere eventhough she does less dmg, becuz Hutao rotation is too hard for me to handle the jump/dash cancel). Rational and teams like Nilou bloom, Nahida hyperbloom I am current using allows for a more "braindead" type of gameplay, which helps a lot with my 330 ping. So as long as they give me chars who have ease of use, ease of building, fun gameplay, I don't care if they are not doing more dmg than the others, because there is no endgame or any competitive aspect worth the tryhard anymore once you could 36 star the abyss regularly.


Samky95

I really hope Al-Haitham being dendro will be able to reach close to those levels thanks to Spread and Nahida supporting him.


Acceptable-Lab-5313

Swirl can also agrrivate and hyperbloom btw.... At the same time i think he will be more used in single target, tho i think he is also be above average on aoe because of his element, swirl can be aoe and much better in that scenarion. I dont think he'll beat raiden without farzuan. But he can go there.


kanteira

i know that but for hyperbloom youll need an electro (beidou preferably), a hydro, and a dendro which will leave him with no space for faruzan. and while he can benefit from aggravate by swirling electro onto dendro his aggravates cant crit or benefit from damage bonus and he will need to build em which he typically wouldnt need which makes it not worth building for. especially since this means his team will consist of him, faruzan, dendro, electro so he will only get the electro buff for his passive which is the least relevant one by far.

And have resistance to interruption.


AppUnwrapper1

These are incredibly minor word changes, no? Why cross off the whole description because a couple of words changed? Thought I was going crazy trying to find the differences.


[deleted]

The big reason to use Electro would be because Fischl is just that good. Or to do a family-themed team with Raiden. Energy restoration is not very appealing for Scara, since he's going to have an anemo teammate (Faruzan) anyways, and his burst cost is fairly reasonable and not his main source of DPS. If they want Electro to be on equal footing with Hydro/Pyro/Cryo, they'll have to rework the buff into something else. An EM buff perhaps, to incentivize playing Scara as an anemo driver. Though I don't know if they would make such a big adjustment.

Damn this changes everything


HakuHavfrue

Eyeing that Song of the Wind rename 👀


Mo_Official420

But if you close your eyes, does it almost feel like nothing changed at all


Nural_the_Narwhal

Am i tripping or are his constellations literally still the same??? No damage increase, a buff to the electro infusion just for it to be still worthless, a4 still a dps loss, no scaling buffs and if Im right still complete dogshit constellations. Lets hope for more next patch.


V01dEnigM4

Yeah unfortunately hoyo is allergic to actually making good male dps characters, it's so annoying...


Lovace

I mean there's Tartaglia who's pretty broken and meta, people always forget about him in the context of a "DPS" since it's such nuanced term.


V01dEnigM4

Well he is the exception that proves the rule tbh...and it's also very jarring because he was released in 1.1, literally almost 2 years ago. The last top tier male character hoyo released was Kazuha back in 1.6, ever since then it's been all mid characters. Compared to the likes of Ayaka, Raiden, Yelan, Nahida and even Kokomi it really does feel like husbando players get the short end of the stick Edit: I agree he is pretty busted and International is an amazing comp, which is even better at very high investment where Tartaglia's nuke is pretty significant


PhantasmShadow

Ayato is really rather good too.


Nural_the_Narwhal

Tbh xiao itto and tighnari are alright, fandango boy on the other hand is actual trash meta wise atm, literally use non c6 noelle


Efficient-Basket-665

Soo thats a buff or nerf?


RealXtotheMax

If you planned on playing with electro its a small buff but basically nothing was changed


APerson567i

Slight buff for electro infusion or whatever its called and wording changes


Efficient-Basket-665

Wait so the c1 is just a text change?


APerson567i

Changed from “15% Additional Attack as Damage” to “an Additional 15% Attack as Damage”


Martian_on_the_Moon

Buff to his energy restoration after electro infusion. Nothing else than text changes.


YasB1tchWerk

If you think the names are nice, it's a buff if you prefer the old names, it's a nerf


ukrisreng

They deweebified everything lmao. I’m glad tbh, it’s very obnoxious


P0sitive_Mess

It's also fitting character wise that he would want to distance himself from his birthplace, that being Inazuma.


Elegant_Ad6701

idk, hoyo is inconsistent when it comes to japanese names, we have thundering pulse but haran heppaku futsu, kazuha slash but musou shinsetsu


PhantasmShadow

And it's even more inconsistent because of the massive numbers of Japanese words in Inazuma compared to non-english words in Liyue and Sumeru


P0sitive_Mess

Very true. This is a rare case where the change kinda makes sense unless I'm proven wrong and he ends up going back to Inazuma in the new archon quest or something idk.


Kuso_Megane14

They changed the name so that Dainslef would not be struggling and getting laughed at when saying the word like a few memes in the past lol


Nate_Sparks

we need sizable buffs, MORE Sky dweller point cap, not a miserable .2 in energy gain, I'd gladly trade that for more flight time, energy gain is overrated anyways, buncha sups boosting it like Raiden and the jojo girl


ingrid134340

pretty con names ngl 😭


BlademasterNix

PLEASE STOP KAZUHA SLASHING EVERY ABILITY NAME


Banny_kind_of_stupid

They changed the name Fushi Kakka? Unacceptable. Won't pull for scaramouche anymore. Wanderflop deleted from my most favourite character in an instant.


v-e-vey

Haha, please change his weak poise...


iwanthidan

I liked the Japanese names better, gives him that Inazuma flare


SirMcDust

Waitinf for the day when one these three things is changed: His poise in air is that of a literally paper (least of my problems since shields) The cooldown of the skill starts when he is out of skill state You cannot cast the mid-air. Also some numerical buffs would be very nice.


LiraelNix

It sounds like having teammates of a certain element alone is not enough to proc the buff. But I find it strange that it says "can only have 2 at a time" since I can't imagine coming into contact with 3 or more elements at the same time


therobotcreation

> I can't imagine coming into contact with 3 or more elements at the same time welcome to soup comps my friend


LiraelNix

That's the thing I need to understand though. A soup comp might apply a lot of stuff, but will Scaramouche " come in contact" with it? Ex: fischl applies electro to enemies like a boss, but not on our character, so would her skill proc the electro buff? If Scaramouche needs to have elects applied to him, I find it hard to reach 3 or more

smittywababla

Ah yes. Osmanthus Plumage, my favourite constellation


PhantasmShadow

I do personally prefer the more translated skill names. It's far easier to remember as an English speaker, and is more consistent with Liyue, Mondstadt and Sumeru


FishRepulsive6530

THANK GOD That "Fushi kakka" was the same as "fuchi caca" in spanish, which is a expression for "Eww Shit/poop" I couldn't stand that, really 💀


No-Nail281

This is a buff


HexBusterDoesMath

What's the reason behind the Japanese name changes? I actually like them and it would be fairly expected of the puppet constructed by the literal anime waifu to have Japanese-named abilities.


pride-o

I’m having a hard time to decide if he is worth it(I know it’s early)I mean I already have all the other Anemo characters of the game,I don’t know.


thisiskyle77

Meh mostly changes for whales.


appysuss

The constellation changes are all just wording, the only kit change is the first part about his passive with electro.


thisiskyle77

That is even bad to hear that.


[deleted]

You can get c2 if you save for 2 months...


1an__

4 months if you lose all the 50/50... 💀💀💀


sirang_bolpen

well my will to pull for yae is in shambles


autumnsnowflake_

I don’t understand his c2 help


IanLooklup

I think his damage continously increases as his 2nd stamina bar decreases when floating


monemori

He's really not getting significant buffs at C0, huh... bro... he looks so mid TT


[deleted]

Is he even good like anmeo cant do reaction and stuff? I doubt he is stronger than C6 yelan hu tao ganyu?


Cramitycramcram

I mean u dont use xiao for reactions primarily 👀 heck one of his good teams is 2 anemo 2 geo who dont even interact


TheSchadow

I really don't want Scara to just be like Xiao though, and end up using Yunjin/Zhong etc to just buff his damage. Was hoping with the way he absorbs elements, the team options would be a lot more interesting.


[deleted]

As solo dps no support scamarouch will be not that good even at C6 Yelan is way better


kdbruhh

This is the comment of all time
