Seriously though. What is a Genshin

The kanji is 原神.

原 means original/primitive/unrefined. 神 is god.

Genshin is the Chinese derived reading reading of it in Japanese, so i am assuming the Chinese reading is similar. Since it's a Chinese game i'm not sure if they use the Japanese pronunciation in China or they just used the Japanese pronunciation in English.

He's an ancient, obscure god. You probably haven't heard of him.




Constellation-wise, aside from Childe p much everyone is either 1 or 2, with a couple at 0. Beidou is apparently at 3 though.

I most run Childe and Razor as my level 70 dps, (AR 38) with Barbara for heals and Xiangling as a backup/I need to set something on fire. Once I can get her a good bow I'll probably replace her with Diona.

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”?

Either way, I am also hoarding all gems for TOTALLYNOTREXLAPIS.

Probably worth noting that a lot of these are from the character archive page, which shows everyone. The darker/duller ones aren't in the roster.

Yeah, looking at the rosters posted, most of them seem to fall in the boundaries of where I'd expect to see people at depending on rerolls and/or money spent. Obviously a small amount of outlying, but hey 0.6% isn't zero and obviously people will be at different spots in their pity timers.

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.

Do you reuse passwords between sites? That how they got into my ebay account. I switched to a password keeper, but forgot i had an ebay and didn't update it.

I pulled him and I absolutely love him. I'm running Tart/Baedou/Fish/Xinqiu and just obliterating things. Ults come up super fast, Baedou grinds through shields and does amazing AoE burst, gets 'em all electricy and then switch to Tartaglia and "DAGGERS GO BRRRRR" and watch everything just melt in front of me.

Plus his bow set is amazing for when a mob is knocked way back with a sliver of health, just pop to Tart, pew pew, dead, switch back.

Also someone pointed out that the last hit of his bow combo is just him straight up throwing an arrow and I can't unsee it and it absolutely rules.

As someone who's only bought one Welkin Blessing I have 3 5*s which seems very normal. 1 from rerolling, 2 from pity. Absolutely guaranteed to have that many as long as you did the minor amount of work to reroll and didn't do something really silly like equally spread all of your rolls between all banners. Lucking out a bit and getting a 4th off the 0.6% chance by this point isn't crazy at all. 5+ 5* characters is where it starts getting into significant luck/whaling.

Wait so I can assign characters to missions and and use them in my party at the same time? What in the gently caress I’ve been skipping out on doing them cause “maybe I need to use this character for some obscure reason, just in case” and only sending them out at night for 12 hours. This makes no sense.

they used to be unavailable during expeditions but 1.1 removed that restriction yeah. finally makes character expedition passives useful since you don't have to handicap yourself by sending out Fischl/Bennett for more frequent ore runs.

You didn't used to be able to, but now you can. It was a quality of life change in 1.1. You could already use mission characters in the Spiral Abyss, just not the rest of content.

To be fair, I kind of understand this. I too was in the "lol I don't give a poo poo about stupid-rear end Childe" club until I accidentally(was fishing for Ning dupes and maybe a Diona)got him from the first ten pull I did on his banner. Then after playing him for like five minutes I was like YEAHHH BOII and he's my second main dps now. He actually rules. He's basically a bow character with none of the drawbacks they normally have. So it's not like he's my true husbando or whatever but gameplay-wise he is cool.

Too bad Zhongli is the exact opposite, he's the coolest dude but I like Ningguang way too much so he has no place on my teams.

edit: Full disclosure: my (non-bad)hydro character situation wasn't great to begin with, I don't have Mona and Xingqiu is literally the only 4* in the game I don't have

The changes to expeditions are definitely needed but I can't help but feel like the passives need changing a bit, I don't care if a couple of my expeditions will finish sooner when I'm not going to bother to check the results until they've all finished. They should give a bonus to the items received instead or something

Agreed. it's actually annoying when one's finished and the others will be back in 2 hours.

idk, I have Keqing + Bennett + Fischl and it's honestly pretty nice having all of my ore expeditions take less time. Certainly beats talents like "20% slower swimming stamina consumption" or "12% chance to double the received amount of certain foods that you will never use".

it would annoy me if i didn't have enough to cover every ore mission but none of the other ones matter so i can't bother to care that my mora or meat is redeeming out of sync. shorter timers mean several days where i'm getting ore twice which is too nice to pass up.
