Man, Ruin Hunter bounty fights are savage af. It does so much damage in flying mode, holy poo poo. I do appreciate the fight's design, though, I like that having an archer and good aim is vital against them in a way it isn't in any other fight. You get one or maybe two shots before it goes full Macross, make it count! Ashenai fucked around with this message at 07:21 on Nov 25, 2020 |

There's a bunch of videos of high level Mona's just straight up one shotting bosses with a proper Bennet and dragon tales combo via her burst. Before Tartaglia came out there was hands down no one that could compete with her when it came to burst damage. And even then she still beats him out in some ways since she doesn't require setting up to maximize damage. Meaning she can combo into buffs from other characters much more easily. Her elemental skill is also extremely useful. It taunts anything and does an AOE. And since it periodically hits with an AOE every cast of it generates for her burst on it's own. The only other character you're likely to have that does that is Amber who...Is not good, really. Archonex fucked around with this message at 07:35 on Nov 25, 2020 |

Right, but their eye becomes a weak point in flight mode. Bullseye it with an archer and they drop out of the sky, stunned. You only need one hit, too, not like the two hits ruin guards take, and there's no on again/off again stagger resist on the eye, either.

Are their weapons leveled and ascended, and artifacts leveled? Even if the artifacts they're using aren't the set you want them to use, just having %ATK main stats on all of your artifacts works perfectly well up until AR40+ domains. This is maybe a bit obvious, but they're also not going to be doing good damage until they're within 10 levels of the enemies you're trying to kill with them.

Just make sure that your DPS carry is maxed out for your current AR (levels, talents and weapons) and has all ATK % artifacts. Supports are less critical to have maxed out, but getting them to the talent breakpoints (one star and four star) is a good place to start. Stacking ATK % on their artifacts except for someone like Sucrose (stack EM) and Diona/Barbara (stack HP)

Usually their element, but in the case of Razor, Xiangling with a Crescent Pike, etc, it'd be physical DMG% instead. This one isn't as situational as crit vs ATK on the circlet; unless you have absolutely stacked DMG% in multiple other sources, it'll beat out ATK% as a goblet main stat. (But ATK% there is still good if you have no alternative.)

Is there any evidence there's actually an exploit? That dude is just repeating the same uninformed speculation thats all over reddit and discord but there's no proof that its actually people hacking you in coop. Just reminds me of any time people get hacked for doing something risky (and the genshin website notably has a bad session hijacking exploit that can make all kinds of things risky), they immediately latch on to whatever explanation that absolves them of responsibility when its usually way more likely they just had a bad password and someone brute forced them if its actually something about uids which I find really unlikely, then make sure you delete all your screenshots off of twitter or whatever, also

No, there's no evidence of an exploit beyond the fact that somehow they're unlinking emails without a confirmation. That's the only issue we know for sure is happening. There are tons of bullshit theories about accounts being stolen from co-op but with not even a single shred of evidence.

Mistikman on the discord got their account hacked and their email unlinked. I'm going to err on the side of caution especially since primogems don't grow on trees and accumulating my current inventory took a lot of time and effort.

Is it possible they could be stealing accounts by asking for account recoveries using information they gained from co-op? I.e. they see you have a Diluc and a Venti or something and they make a note of what weapon they're using and use that plus your UID as identifying information to make an account recovery claim.

Given the actual security model of the Genshin Impact account, linking your email and/or phone does not add a layer of protection. It might add a layer of authenticity when you contact them about your account being hijacked, but MFA has not been enabled in anyway. Just use a long, randomly generated password. Anyway, I don't believe this, at least until I hear from official channels. There has been false rumors in this community before, and this sounds like another one.

You're going to end up completely re-building your artifact loadouts with 5* artifacts after AR40 anyways because 5* artifacts don't drop in non-boss domains before then. Definitely still raise a second DPS because at least two are required for Abyss, but don't worry too much about grinding good artifacts until AR40. Also worth noting that 5* artifact drops aren't guaranteed in domains until AR45. I farmed my main DPS' artifacts at AR40, and those runs where the drops were all purple and blue were pretty discouraging.

This is the 2020 internet. 95% of youtube videos that exist would be better off as text posts. The only mechanism I've seen floated for how this works is by the attacker adding their own phone number to your account, and then using that for password recovery. Adding a phone number asks for a 6-digit code sent to your email; it's unclear how they're supposed to be getting around this. Since that video creator... declined to link the reddit thread he was talking about, it's here: https://old.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/jwinkq/account_stolen_after_coop_player_threatened_to/ If you want to read the original, now deleted post: https://snew.notabug.io/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/jwinkq/account_stolen_after_coop_player_threatened_to/ And the twitter thread he retweeted of the otheruser who lost their account, for what that's worth: https://twitter.com/bloody_hangover/status/1329826924819075074 Posted so you can make your own minds up. So far I haven't heard any reports of anyone with a phone number already linked losing their account.

Archonex posted:Mona hits like a truck via her burst and with a favonius codex can reliably spam her burst while getting around a 20-30% hydro damage bonus due to her talent that converts ER into hydro damage. There's a bunch of videos of high level Mona's just straight up one shotting bosses with a proper Bennet and dragon tales combo via her burst. This is... not accurate. Especially not the "she doesn't require setting up to maximize damage" part, which is the exact opposite of the truth. Mona's burst is a single hit with a base 442% ATK multiplier. On its own this is quite unimpressive, especially for a 5*. It also has a "increases incoming damage taken" debuff on enemies hit by it, but this debuff doesn't apply to its own damage so it doesn't matter (and this damage increase stacks additively with other +DMG% buffs like the elemental damage on your goblet for example so it's way less impressive than it sounds). For comparison, the total multiplier on Xiangling's ult if you get all the hits is well over 1000%, and let's not even talk about Xingqiu's burst. If I just press the button with no preparation my Mona (level 75 with mostly +16 artifacts and a few +20 scattered in, like 1600 ATK IIRC, burst at talent level 7) does a single hit for 10k damage. That's absolutely nothing, it's like one Xiangling autoattack cycle. The only way you can get Mona's burst to do actually good damage is by abusing damage multiplier stacking and specifically by using vaporize. The total damage multiplier is poo poo but I'm pretty sure it's the biggest single hit hydro attack currently in the game, and since vaporize multiplies the damage of the triggering attack and stacks multiplicatively with everything else, you can get a single very big number by stacking vaporize (with lots of EM) + crit + some regular damage multipliers. Setting this up though is quite fiddly. To get the vaporize proc we want we need to apply hydro to an enemy afflicted by pyro, which sounds easy enough, but Mona's burst has finicky mechanics that makes it harder. It doesn't apply damage immediately, but rather it applies a debuff that triggers the hydro damage either when the enemy takes damage from some other source, or otherwise after a timeout. This debuff applies hydro but does no damage, so if you just use Mona's burst on an enemy with pyro on them you'll get a zero damage vaporize proc. So in order to get the big number, first you need to apply pyro to the enemy, then use Mona's burst, causing a zero damage vaporize proc, then wait for 1-2 seconds for the vaporize reaction cooldown to expire, and then finally use a pyro attack again - this will first apply pyro, then Mona's damage, proccing a vaporize again. If the enemy takes damage from any source before you can do the second pyro attack (e.g. from standing on burning grass or whatever) then welp you lost your opportunity and the ult will only do its regular damage. Oh, and you need it to crit too to get the youtube montage numbers. Many of the biggest numbers you'll see on youtube are with "reset comps" - high crit damage but low crit chance and just reset the fight until you get the crit you want. Building ER on Mona is not that good by the way, her ult is quite cheap on energy and has a 15 second cooldown so charging it isn't much of a problem even with a modest amount of ER. I have Favonius Codex on her because I haven't bothered leveling any other weapon but that alone is already too much energy recharge - the ult recharges faster than I can use it in many situations and it would be better to just build more damage instead. Squiddycat posted:I was initially annoyed about pulling Mona but I just found out she can run on water which alone justifies her entire existence It's very useful for exploration but it's a rather significant weakness in combat. First off she will always dash the direction you're facing when you hit shift, so you need to turn first and then dash if you want to go somewhere specific. More importantly though you can't double-dash or animation cancel out of the (rather long) recovery animation, nor dash cancel out of knockbacks, so she's extremely susceptible to stunlocks and large radius AoE's in general. Oh, and while in the animation she gets stuck on the tiniest ledges. TheFluff fucked around with this message at 11:02 on Nov 25, 2020 |
