At least now I'll take a break for the whole next banner. What are you running her as? If it's as support then probably favonius. If as dps, then build yourself a prototype animus and run that. If you refined a whiteblind to R2 for whatever reason, then I guess debate club.

This will, I hope, be the worst weapon banner this game will ever see.

If you don't probably Sacrifical just because it has fat base ATK. At level 80 assuming you have 100% atk from other sources (artifacts etc) the sac greatsword will end up with 16% higher ATK even counting the debate club substat.

Thanks for the insight - I run her as mostly support (she's simply not competitive with C6 Noelle or Keqing), so will try Favonius and Sacrificial and see what handles better, I guess. Though tbh I think I will bend the setup to fit to Favonius out of these two, since Sacrificial looks really clashing with her design. Priorities, priorities.

gandlethorpe posted:Pshh, Ruin Hunters are easy to deal with. No need for fancy tricks; just make sure they stay cool Watching videos like this I am incredibly jealous of how quickly you melt the health bars on Ruin Hunters. So, is there any chance that I could be doing something with the characters I have to make the fights go smoother? So far, I'm just relying on Razor as physical DPS because of superconduct and even with that taken into account those are the one enemy that have resistance to that and the fights are an uphill battle even with me sniping them to stop them from attacking.

How high a level should I be aiming for? XQ is the first non Ningguang character I've managed to get this banner so that's why he's still level 1. I have no idea idea what I should be doing with him.

RareAcumen posted:Watching videos like this I am incredibly jealous of how quickly you melt the health bars on Ruin Hunters. Physical damage is always going to feel slow vs Ruin Machines, even with superconduct. Guards and Hunters have 70% and 50% physical RES, respectively, and superconduct will bring them down to 30% and 10%. So you'll never get any "extra" damage with physical attacks. Meanwhile, they have 10% RES to any given elemental damage, so Viridescent Venerer will bring them down to -15% RES1. That translates to approximately 20%2 extra damage than they normally take. With your roster, the ones who can deal a ton of elemental damage would be the best. Especially those who can benefit from VV (i.e. swirlable elements). Ningguang's good, and Xingqiu's the best during his burst. Xiangling can also do a lot during hers. 1RES reductions below 0 are halved, so the -40 RES brings 10 to 0, and the remaining -30 becomes -15. 2This chart shows how RES values translate to damage factor Also, here's a chart of every enemy's RES values

RareAcumen posted:Sure thing! How high a level should I be aiming for? It'd be great if every single one of your characters was max level, but since I assume you're not whaling a fortune into doing that, 60 is normally the max to get all passives. XQ in particular has a bit of a break point. His first passive heals, which is good and scales on HP. His second passive buffs his damage, which is also good IF you're building him up with artifacts for that. If you're not pumping artifacts into him he doesn't need to go to 60. He's just there to get everything wet and gtfo. If I had to pick one to 60 I'd probably pick Kaeya. You've only got one cryo and his ascension stat is ER with his second passive regenerating more energy. Getting a chain of freezes is going to let you smash out damage.

So I started (very) late and only just now hit AR 35 and I'm starting to feel like I'm getting ARs faster than I'm getting materials to keep my characters as equipped as possible. Is "Whoops I accidentally built my team bad and now the world level is too high for me to feasibly get anything down" something I need to super concern myself about, and if so, is there value in sticking at 35 while I dump resin into the bosses I can currently kill so that I've got the leveling materials once the world level starts getting Up There?

You only need to keep up with 1 main dps. Everyone else can lag behind. Delaying world levels is dumb because you get more mats from higher world levels so you're only falling further behind. If you managed to really gently caress yourself and can't even kill world bosses then ask for help and someone will kill them for you. If you are so far behind that you need to burn a few fragile resin to catch up then do so.

Yeah, I'm sure at some point I'll take a moment to stop screaming over getting seven 4 star weapons in a row instead of new characters and just breakdown and get the battlepass for more materials. I didn't even think I should upgrade everyone- because I can't imagine using Lisa at all- to 60 but I'll start working on that now that I've just hit AR40.

Heck I only seriously invested in artifacts for 2 characters until 45 and have had zero issues in overworld and weekly bosses.

How perfect do you need your artifacts before upgrading them? My Diluc has a weak Goblet (just some generic 4* atk% one), while I have something like this which has good stats but is a completely worthless set, making it a lot more difficult to put together useful set bonuses: Alternatively I have a 5* Gladiator one with % Pyro damage, but it only has defensive substats. It feels like I have a bunch of decent but not perfect artifacts that are better than what I currently have, but if I go crazy upgrading them all I will run out of artifact fodder. Is the best strategy to keep waiting for something perfect until you get to the point where you need better stats to farm? Pain of Mind fucked around with this message at 08:25 on Dec 1, 2020 |

Bear in mind, a max level 5 star artifact, fed into another 5 star artifact, will get it to level 18, so you don't lose that much if you want to switch.

You pretty much always use cups for just the right % damage boost unless you get lucky since it's real hard to roll one with the right substat and in a useful set. You only need 4 pieces to complete a set so take advantage of that.Hellioning posted:Bear in mind, a max level 5 star artifact, fed into another 5 star artifact, will get it to level 18, so you don't lose that much if you want to switch.

Also don't worry about the the sub-stats on artifacts at all except as a tiebreak between similar options, because the primary & set bonus stats are much more impactful. Especially since all of the stat upgrades are random, so you can push it to +20 and just get a bunch of defense and +HP upgrades instead of what you want.

Thanks treasure compass, for bringing back the high of finding multiple chests in one day. Side note, you can detect Liyue chests using the Mondstadt compass (or vice versa) if they're close enough to the border. Good luck finding them once you're in the proper region! moush posted:You can usually chock up any showoff vids as the person using max level artifacts with good main stats + substats. Also please note the food buffs they use. My artifacts are pretty good, but I ain't using no cheat food in my clips  Pain of Mind posted:How perfect do you need your artifacts before upgrading them? My Diluc has a weak Goblet (just some generic 4* atk% one), while I have something like this which has good stats but is a completely worthless set, making it a lot more difficult to put together useful set bonuses: Goblets usually end up being off-set because of how rare it is to get a good one. It really depends case-by-case whether you should swap, though, both on the set bonuses and the substats. Set bonuses tend to be more powerful than substats though. What sets are you using and what are the individual pieces you're comparing? You can't really wait for something perfect to come by, or you'll just spend more time being gimped. The good thing about artifacts is that you can salvage about 80% of the EXP if you do happen to come across a better piece. Usually, the right main stats with 2 out of 4 good substats is worth leveling up. My preference is CRIT DMG > CRIT Rate = ATK% > Ele Mastery = Energy Recharge = Flat ATK > HP%/DEF% > Flat HP/DEF, with some variance depending on the user and whether they're already getting crit stats elsewhere. And sometimes you just have to make do with 1 out of 4 good stats. Here's my set, for example. I rolled a lot of HP and DEF, but also a lot of CRIT DMG:  They could be better, but I feel strong enough.

Yeah I'm not really hurting overall, it's just the RNG atop RNG for relics is a bit silly. Especially since you'll probably want to eventually have 6+ full useful sets for Abyss parties or subbing other chars in with different priorities.
