I nodded at each of those, they were all good features. That's actually like 35 fates for me which is kind of crazy, 40 with minimal investment.

Biggest thing there:

After the developers let us have one final peek at their notebooks, it turns out that in Version 1.2, Travelers will be rewarded with 1 Acquaint Fate each time they ascend a character at level 20, 50, or 70!
And for any previous characters that Travelers have ascended, you can claim the Acquaint Fate rewards from the Ascension Materials Preview screen.

Time to add to your debate club collections everybody!

Edit: EFB

Q4: I wish I could repeat a Domain without having to leave and re-enter.
A4: In Version 1.2, Travelers will be able to choose to repeat a Domain challenge from inside the Domain. No more leaving and re-entering!

That one is nice also.

Oh no poo poo? That's baller as gently caress

Twenty free pulls is great in my book, since I'm sixty-odd pulls towards standard banner pity already. Being able to look up dialogue from the main storyline will be interesting, too.

You'll be happy because his video is about how Chongyun is the best character in the game! It's also about how Razor is the best character in the game and Xinyan is also the best character in the game.

Not entirely, if a stat is the main stat you can't also get it as a substat.

new developer Q&A post is up: https://genshin.mihoyo.com/en/news/detail/7170

lots of minor QoL stuff and new systems like friend chat and dialogue record for quests/cutscenes. also raising a character to 20/50/70 will give you a white fate each time, so every character pays you back 3 standard rolls with investment.

//The developers have improved the Domain and Ley Line Outcrop rewards system. From Version 1.2, you won't have to collect the drops yourself because they'll be added straight to your Inventory.//

A pretty good idea, I haven't seen it myself but apparently there have been some instances of Venti players using his ult to yeet other players rewards off the arena. This will prevent that.

So I'm guessing it's absolutely worth getting all of your characters ascended at least once for the rolls then? It's a bunch of XP books, but not THAT many for what is likely going to be 10+ rolls for folks.

at least 20 for sure, and 50 in most cases. 70 probably still not recommended for most chars i would say

With a controller? I've been using reWASD to remap my controller inputs to keyboard bindings and it has mouse sensitivity options by axis. It takes some getting used to because you don't have the shortcut wheel that you have with the controller, but honestly there is so much more potential with it that it's worth it.

I'm starting to understand that I was blessed with a really solid set of Gladiator's pieces:



Add Serpent Spine to that and I have a 60% CRIT Rate, 140% CRIT DMG, and +30% DMG transferrable to any claymore user.

I'm actually not even sure if whatever Cryo set they end up releasing will be worth changing to.

I got Zhongli and Xinyan and then Xinyan and Razor while rolling. That pretty much drained all of my rolls for this month. I'm hoping that after all the free ones and more scraping by with the single rolls will give me enough to hopefully get Chongyun. I've gotten everyone except him so far after all!
