Oh no!😱

Candace sent an in-game message today, as the characters do, but they decided that she should attach 10 trishiraite. Am I right in remembering that this still has literally no in-game use?

And back to commission chat for a minute, second day on "random" commission location, second day its picked Liyue and given me "Good Sign", and the "ruin the omens" achievement for that one is the only commission achievement I know I dont have. There are probably others that I dont know exist tbf, and thats an entirely tiny sample size, but thought I'd mention.

I'd recommend using paimon.moe to keep track, because there's a few 1.0 commissions that had follow-ups in Inazuma or The Chasm. Otherwise yeah, they repeat a lot of the wrong versions now than they did when that patch first hit imo

Despite the fact that these are her stats currently (in game says 2247 ATK), I'm grinding artifacts in the new domain for Arlecchino and she's actually broken. When her pyro infusion's active she can attack around rock shields and she's doing like 34-40K damage a swing.

The Demogorgon is tired of your silly human bickering!

I pulled a Qiqi... I'm at 37% won 50-50s after a long streak of failures or whatever 4 wins 7 losses is. Then the game made up for it by giving me Arley Chin 3 pulls later.

Now to save and see who shows up first, Furina, Zhongli or Yelans bow.

How did I get here?
For months now I've been thinking I was missing a Ring of Raining Blades (III) to finish up the Stone Harbor's Nostalgia achievements and I just needed RNG to give me a rarer version of the daily commission.

Today, I finally decided to double check and it turns out I just never gave Liu Su Ring of Raining Blades (I). Please give us sub-achievements. I hate tracking this stuff.

A nice QoL feature I think Genshin would be nice to have:

- Autopick up loot. Its annoying sometimes spawning geo constructs and not being able to see or pick up the loot, plus its distracting during combat.
- Let me dismiss geo constructs so i dont auto climb them during combat.
- Heck I get stuck sometimes climbing random trees in combat.

I don't have a good idea about the auto-climbing a climbable object problem as I'm sure some people its an essential part of their combat style to climb and do plunging strikes.

- Let me fight mid air like in Final Fantasy 7 Remake/Rebirth. Keqing seems good for this where if I throw her dagger at a flying enemy I should be able to do a combo in the air I feel.

e: Question, is Barbara generally gauranteed, if not, how do people get mats for their pyro characters or do they just have to make do with Kaeya worst comes to worse? I tried fighting the Pyro regisvine with Eula and she does like no damage to the core thingy you're supposed to pop while Barbara trivially pops it just by standing next to it with her E?

It's really not. There are plunge-based characters and the latest abyss has a plunge gimmick boss, but no one is slowly climbing something in combat.

Barbara is, or was the last time I looked, a free unlock. Regisvines (and quite a few other enemies) have a shield mechanic. Elemental application for a reaction causes big damage to the shield, even if it does no damage itself, and pyro shields have hydro as their biggest weakness. Same deal with the cryo regisvine and pyro application.

Yeah you're starting to hit on why physical damage (white damage numbers) is considered not very good. So many enemy types are resistant or immune to it for no reason.

Honestly any enemy with an elemental shield should have a big negative physical resist after it's removed.

It wouldn't fix it but it would be at least, I dunno, understandable. You use a shield because you don't want to get smacked in the face.

started playing this game again and lucked out getting arlecchino. she is the perfect character for me because she can just button mash to delete things without thinking too hard. also she’s cool.
I thought the story in the first few regions was kinda dumb and boring so I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the Sumeru and Fontaine storylines got pretty wild. Kinda weird it took them until the fourth region to realize that it’s generally good for stories to revolve around characters who undergo some kind of change as a result of conflict but w/e. The Ace Attorney bits in Fontaine were fun and I like the underwater exploration they added

After really close to a full year of playing almost every day, I'm about to finish the third Sumeru desert region. Too bad it started off with two of my least favorite things about genshin. 30 minutes straight of lore dump over things I have no context for yet or any reason to care about, and locking oculus behind hours of story chains to unlock an area.

It's going to be a little funny that I started playing just before Fontaine came out and by the time I actually reach it we're going to be in Natlan

lol how did I not recognize Ray Chase as Neuvillette. He and Amber Lee Connors as Furina completely stole the show.

Also really funny hearing all the different ways the actors mispronounce “Monsieur Neuvillette”

Hitting up all the chests/Oculi in the first two desert regions along with all of Jeht story and the desert rose quest was enough to get me another 80 rolls, the question is whether I like Father enough to pull for her C1 or if I pull Furina.

I mean, Neuvillette and Arcc at C0 are still probably enough to clear floor 12 right? Neither of them need Furina though.

Furina is very good and new characters always outweigh constellations.

That said, I'm spending every new primo I have to getting Arlecchino to C2 right now because at C1 she is loving ridiculously good. I do have her weapon too to be fair. But honestly, get Furina.

Good supports are where it's at. They're more resistant to power creep in general and Furina is a bigger buff to a team and your account than a constellation on your carry. Her having Ousia/Pneuma modes makes her a huge QoL pull for Fontaine.

My other account's already got a Furina paired with a Hu Tao/Homa and C4 Jean so I've reached about peak Furina already though. Wish I knew when Nilou is coming out next because I'd really like to try her or Kokomi

I hope Natlan doesn't continue the trend of yo-yo healthbars because I'd kind of like to use healers that aren't jean or CR again at some point
