I've got Ning as my main carry on an account and it's incredibly fun and strong, especially when using eye of deception as well for maximum projectile chaos. The only issues I have are 1) lawachurl bounties suck and 2) she's so self-sufficient and geo does so little with other elements that making a ning team is never all that interesting. Like 90% of time in any fight is just spent with her out going pew pew. Especially in domains with slimes it's super relaxing to just facetank them with all the crystals that pop out. Oh, and fire abyss mages are kind of irritating I guess since their nonsense goes through her screen.

Re: Ganyu chat- I'm running Amos B, Blizzard Strayer and Cryo resonance as a way to have 60%+ Crit rate/150%+ Crit damage while having ATK and Cryo% on all my gear and it's working great.

I have the absolutely hilarious crit stat balance of 15% crit rate/225% crit dmg before resonance/artifact effects. Crits are absolutely wild.

i had such an incredible amount of 5 star wanderer gear that i didnt want to use on anyone else so i had a pretty easy time putting together a 4 piece for ganyu that all rolled crit 3-4 times. getting the 50k aimed shots is pretty satisfying.

BexGu posted:I actually just got Xingqiu and have that team, how did you gear them? Diluc is DPS so full Witch set and Serpent Spine. He used to have Prototype Archaic but his witch set isn't amazing so I needed the crit and switched to Serpent Spine. Focus on pyro and crits. Ganyu is sub DPS/support. 2 pc glad, 2 pc blizzard. Work in progress, but I have Blackcliff on her and it seems good. Cryo and crits. Xingqiu has 2 pc hydro set, 2 pc noblesse and favonius sword because I never managed to get a sacrificial. Hydro and crits. Albedo has the harbringer/defense build. So harbringer of dawn, 2 pc petra 2 pc defender's will. All in for def and crit stats.

I'd recommend not trying to complete sets on Albedo and just giving him your god def pieces. Sure if you have great defender's will flower+feather it's worth it (and keep good ones you find while farming) but you're more likely to have something amazing for him in random off sets. Petra+Defender is no doubt his best set combo but you find such crazy pieces for him. You'll want to do the math for your albedo but Def helmet generally performs substantially better than crit helm for his E (but makes his Q worse).

My 5 star weapon was aquila favonia. And that was right after I pulled keqing too. But theyre both just collecting dust. Already had a maxed razor and klee and just pulled ganyu so dont see myself using aquila anytime soon. Maybe on bennett to increase his burst damage buff a bit. Guess I could try to fit keqing in somewhere but Woulda killed for a 5 star catalyst. Then my klee would be nuts.

Yeah, I have kind of reached a point where I feel this too, though I pulled on the weapon banner this time and lucked out with the 5 star I wanted. Other than new four stars, or more constellations on Klee, I kind of find the weapon banner more appealing right now. I have 8-10 chars I want to build out and max. I guess if there is legit power creep then I might be enticed. Ganyu seems really great, but I just don't have a big interest in using a bow on my controller.

No Wave posted:It'll depend on your substats. I have an abnormal amount of crit rate so with Harbinger I'm at 70%. These are my stats with a +16 def hat without harbinger buff being counted: Charted em out, my substats are junk. Some DEF and Crit DMG here and there but my crit rate without a crit rate hat is 10ish%, 37% with one. Guess I'll keep it on for the time being. Thanks for the tips!

The reason Ganyu is so F2P friendly is that she can do a lot of damage without worrying about substat rolls. With Cryo resonance and a Blizzard set, she'll naturally get up to 80% crit chance against frozen enemies without any crit chance on her gear otherwise. This means you only really need to focus on getting two substat rolls (atk% and crit damage) instead of three. But even then, against enemies with weakspots you don't even need the crit% that the Blizzard set provides. Her damage ceiling relies on melt though, which contradicts the Blizzard set, so Wanderer's ends up being the better choice for that.

No Wave posted:I'm not really convinced by melt for general use cases. It's better for when you're trying to clear floors in under 3 minutes, which I guess is what the abyss eventually comes down to. But for general use cases it seems like you really want to be able to spam her Q. Yeah, for just generic overworld stuff I've been doing just fine with 4 piece Blizzard and a prototype bow. Ganyu has a bit of trouble with the wooden/rock shield mobs but otherwise she cleans up in overworld exploration.

Ganyu seems to do big booty damage regardless of what you do really. A melt comp is gonna produce the biggest numbers of all but may be inconvenient since all the good pyro applicators are melee range. The other setups I've seen are just mostly running mono-cryo or Freeze for the Blizzard artifact crit boosts. Regardless of which route you go though I think Sucrose or Venti are gonna be no-brainer picks for her because of how her burst will cluster up if you group up enemies together. Plus her charged shots are AoE too.

Ganyu has a bit of trouble with the wooden/rock shield mobs but otherwise she cleans up in overworld exploration. The two ways I've found it easiest to deal with them is to use her E to distract them, then charge up a shot and wait for them to lower their shields as they attack the flower. Alternatively you can drop the flower to distract them, run behind them and then hit them in the back of the head with a charge 1 shot. For some reason charge 2 shots get absorbed by the shield regardless of the direction the shield is facing, but charge 1 will hit just fine from behind, just as uncharged shots will. It definitely is more of a hassle than it is with unshielded mobs though. On another note, Ganyu makes such short work of all the different Fatui mobs that I've started killing them on sight again. The gunners and geo casters take a while if they get their elemental shields up, but once you get her stats up she can easily murder them before they manage to shield up. *Edit* Oh, and the frost cicin mages are kind of a pain if they get their frost bubble up. Best to kill them quickly. AG3 fucked around with this message at 23:28 on Jan 19, 2021 |

I'm guessing it would, though I'm a bit unclear on how the "same elements 'stick' to enemies better" thing works.

I threw the best Wanderers stuff I had on Ganyu, and got pretty decent rolls for crit damage and attack, and have a total crit chance of around 50% thanks to using the BP bow with the fun passive. She's only level sixty and is dealing DPS on par with my main DPS Chong at 90. My goodness. I'm excited to see what happens with another twenty levels and the stat boosts from those ascensions.
