:obama:My first car was a stick:obama:
Before this event I'd been saving fragile resins thinking 'oh I will spend them when I'm at 45', but thinking about it a bit more, that plan doesn't really earn extra five-star artifacts, does it? Time and resin are the same thing if you don't cap out, right? I'm not earning more five-star artifacts if I wait two weeks for natural resin regeneration to get me to 45, then using all the fragiles to do tons of domains, versus using all my resins today to get lots of adventure exp, then doing tons of domains over two weeks using natural regeneration

What I might miss from using all my resins is being able to spend them all to blow through an event in an afternoon, or maybe being able to use them all at once in a domain that hasn't released yet to get the new stuff on day one. Also, emergency Sunday boss resin

The area of effect thing dropping progress is rear end. I do the middle difficulty one because getting thrown out and losing all progress sucks.

I main Aero MC. It helps to remember that enemy grouping is part of your main strategy, and you don’t have to finish a combo that sends them flying.

Time and AR aren't exactly the same thing in this case since the daily commissions give you such a large amount of adventure experience

Decided to go for a few more rolls on this banner despite having gotten Tartaglia, in the hopes of getting Diona finally. Instead... Rust. My second one from the character banner, in fact. It's not even featured (on this banner, at least), and I've pulled it more times than I have Diona. Wow.

I'm really torn on continuing to try, or just saving up for Zhongli and constellations for Razor and Chongyun (and of course Xinyan).

Yeah I've found at least 6 chests in a single region after hitting 100%. The requirement to 100% seems to just be a somewhat arbitrary amount of chests found, rather than an indication you've found them all.

Resin is literally time, but in terms of blowing it all now for AR exp versus waiting until 45 to get lots of 5* artifacts... no idea how that min/maxes out. If anything I'd say the increased domain difficulty (and weekly boss difficulty) would skew towards splurging on resin at 45 to get your carry up to god status in the new domain level range. That's just me guessing, though.

Good thing too, because there's a rep bonus on getting to 100%, and if I had to find every single chest I would probably ragequit

Started a couple weeks ago. I pretty much only get 4*s at the 10 roll pity and often they're lovely weapons. No 5* weps yet.... Pulled Jean off my starter set and pulled Klee on like, the last couple days of her banner.

I only today realised that you can tell which lootable plants will spawn a Whopperflower, because the loot pop-up will have a speech bubble instead of the icon for the item you're looting.

Hopping on the roster bandwagon. No rerolling, which I do have some regrets about since I did a few rerolls much later on and got Keqing on one of them, and she was really fun to use. Too much time invested in this account though:



C6 Barbara (and gotten two more after maxing her out)
C3 Fischl
C2 Ningguang
C2 Xiangling
C1 Amber
C1 Beidou

Also got a 5 star weapon from the standard banner, Lost Prayers to the Sacred Winds, which is... I guess the movement speed is nice? Not that it sees any use since Barbara is using the dragon slayer book. Getting a 5 star weapon instead of character is such a letdown.

Fun fact, Keqing was from newbie rolls, and Qiqi was from some common rolls I did with launch primogems or early chest gems (don't remember, rolling that banner was a newbie mistake at the time that helped me a lot instead), no rerolls.
I'll admit if it weren't for my initial luck, I might've not spent so much on the game so far.

That is the strongest catalyst in the game, if you put it on an offensive caster like Ningguang you'll be happy to have it, it turns her into an offensive juggernaut.

Can confirm this, I have it lvl80 on Klee and she hits like juggernaut even ten levels below Keqing and with suboptimal and mostly unleveled artifacts (so her survivability is kinda lacking, really need that pyro set from domain).

Ningguang is so busted strong it's ridiculous, I'm just kicking out constant 8k crits with her charged attack, dropping Jade Screens for 10k, and all of this is mixed with tons of smaller hits from her AoE normal attacks. On top of that she is nearly immune to most ranged attacks and constantly generates shields for herself and the whole party in coop, it's nuts. All of this and I don't even have 5* artifacts or good substats on my purple artifacts yet.

So is there a general 'winner' to the BP weapons now that the dust has settled or is it just dependent on what you have? I took the spine last time since I hit BP30 pretty early in when people all thought it was the best (and people didn't know yet that environmental damage ticks away at your stacks :v:) so I dunno what to take this time...

e: also just unlocked the 50k crit damage achievement, woo.

At the request of my heart, can we stop posting rosters for a few pages? Or at least stop acting humble and referring to rosters with 4+ pulled 5*s as “normal” or “average”?

It's a question of what you need. All of them are crit rate 4*s with mostly irrelevant text. Black sword and solar pearl have relevant text so are a bit better on the few characters that can use them well.

I'm getting Viridescent Hunt because my support Fischl can use it. It'll be better than the rust I had on her before I pulled Tartaglia and then I can give the saceificial I have on her to the Diona I plan on leveling. (I'm actually really liking sacrificial on Fishl though tbh)

Looks like my account got hacked or phished because I logged on this afternoon to all my primogems gone and the records saying they all got rolled away on the permanent banner at 5am today. Angry obviously but also slightly baffled that's literally all they did. Didn't even delete my weapons, artifacts or any other mischief, just logged on, rolled, and logged off.

I really hope they add 2FA soon.

Superconductivity is about super-low temperatures lowering resistance to electricity, I guess in magic fantasy china it also lowers resistance to being bonked with big-rear end swords.

Superconduct lets electro reactions create more arcs, which makes some amount of sense, I would assume that the vulnerability to being bonked comes from the super low temperatures making things brittle.
