LorneReams posted:Get great to perfect artifact sets tends to be a vague number-crunching exercise, while just ascending a character is fairly straight forward, so I can see the appeal. Yeah, perfect artifacts is kind of a long term goal. I spent like 15 fragile resin on the fire artifact domain, after Klee was kitted out with acceptable artifacts, and got 1 witches flower that I considered to be better than what she had already. Whereas if you ascend the character you're guaranteed a result. Just weaving in different goals breaks up the monotony of logging in every day for an hour.

black.lion posted:i feel like ive received conflicting answers Someone was making a joke about the different characters being different skins for your artifacts (aka where the real numbers come from) The real answer is no, but there's currently a "dressing room" button in the game that only serves to change the skin of your characters' gliders. I'd say it's pretty unlikely they'd call it that with the intention of only ever using it for gliders.

There's also a Seelie (glowing orb spirit thing) pet that you can get to follow you around. It was from an event, so if you start now then you're poo poo out of luck, but it'll probably roll around again in a few months. You can pick from three wonderful colors: Boring Blue, Piss Yellow, and Perfect Pink.

I remember a poster or two were predicting most people'd pick the blue treasure seelie, because it was the default option, the event seelie was blue, and the world seelies are blue. We were surprised when the stats revealed the opposite I also remember reading somewhere that in public toilets, the stall closest to the door is generally the least frequently used, because everyone assumes it'll be the most-used and most likely to be dirty I wonder how many people avoided the blue one, because they didn't want what they guessed would be the most common choice?

it being least chosen made enough sense, i feel like a lot of people were also saying that having the one that just matches what already exists would be boring i didn't even realize they assigned arbitrary rarity to them which was apparently a factor in some people's choice too ("yellow gives 5* luck!")

No idea how well Ganyu runs as a support, but I definitely notice when I forget to bring Fischl around since Oz does so much damage as a turret. I think Diluc, Xingqiu, Bennett, and Fischl would be a solid group. Note that I am kind of biased because that is what I use and it melts everything. Also, seeing as you have a 5* claymore it should be more effective for you than it is for me.

I picked blue because it's my favorite color and synergizes the most with Chongyun v vBut I'll happily relish in the fact that I have the rarest type on top of it not being ugly piss yellow or way too saturated pink that doesn't match with anything. dogsicle posted:i didn't even realize they assigned arbitrary rarity to them which was apparently a factor in some people's choice too ("yellow gives 5* luck!") They don't have different item rarity. People just noticed their colors correspond with 3*, 4*, and 5* colors. The items themselves are all 4*

I soloed Domain of Guyun 90 without electro (usual Klee/Childe/Albedo/Bennett overworld team) despite everyone getting potentially oneshot by the Ruin Hunter and stunlocked to death by the mages and I feel really accomplished  is this what clearing Abyss is supposed to feel like? I'm Very Bad at genshin by metrics of not switching out for reactions because Lost Prayer Klee is a greedy child and I need Childe instead of XQ to bust down level 90 pyro shields before dying to bullshit - apart from Albedo's flowers and going Bennett E into Childe E, it's not a very reactive comp. I just don't have the mats to build a team for a top level domain. heh if and when I get Fischl's C6, though, I'm gonna smoke Guyun

Just FYI, if you are still doing the web event, you are going to need to edit this in your browser's HTML editor. Just erase the text in the div starting from "View" in the screenshot above, and the button for the link will show up. Apparently the website checks if you click the link and will disregard if you visited the site before i.e. they won't look at your cookies. These developers and/or their QA sort of suck.

Something about punking three different abyss mages with inflated hp pools with 4+ bursts feels great especially when you don't actually take that much time to clear it.

Thoom posted:Thanks for the advice! I am planning to put whatever I can into the banner before it goes away, because I like all the 4*s and the off chance of C1 Ganyu seems worth potentially resetting my pity if that happens. I don't really care about the Xiao/Keqing banners so I've got at least a month to resume stockpiling. Yeah C1 Bennet seems likely eventually, it's not like you need C5 or something. Stringless is outstanding if you are using Ganyu as support because it has EM as a substat. I'm using blackcliff warbow but I'm also not sure how one ganyus properly. . Diluc/XQ/Bennet is a solid core, I run Chongyun/XQ/Bennet but I use Sucrose for the 40% debuff from Viridescent Veneer set. C3 Sucrose and C4 Xiangling are both great for abyss 2nd teams. Also the most important advice I can give you tonight: Never poo poo talk a fish. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZN4DvmsVhkI

Ha, I ran this exact combo for the cryoflower today, I was impressed enough to save the fight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LjMoYOHBBxk Oz just adds so much frigging damage and is up just about permanently. I haven't been using Fischl in Abyss and and I'm starting to reconsider the thought process behind that decision.

That's a nice box. I have been really enjoying various flavours of Keqing/Albedo/Fischl/X. Crystallize counts for Fischl's second ascension passive, and you'll basically always be shielded. X varies depending on what extra element I need, it's usually Bennett or Noelle.

Been camping 12-3 for 3 days for a good buff to 3-star it before the reset and gotten the same terrible buffs (weakpoint and stamina) each day. Did they change how things work or am I just hideously unlucky? I can finish with 6:45, so even the next weakest usable offense buff would probably get me there.

In the long run I am wondering if it is better to spend Starglitter on rolls rather than characters unless they expand the 4* pool or increase the reward for C7. Even FTP I have a C6 already, and contributing ~ 11% toward 5* pity roll + being close to the average 4* rate for something seems more valuable in the long run. If there is someone who you need at C6 who is crucial to your build and you are at C0, sure I guess, but eventually you will grab it from standard rolls or some character banner.

Well, Xiao is probably going to suck because i'm guaranteed to get them. Last pull of the month says no cocogoat rocket launcher for me! Whoever is after Xiao is going to be great though because i'll lose the coinflip again and get another Keqing constellation. Did end up with a C6ed Noelle and Xingqiu and a C5 Xiangling though so it could be worse? i guess?

I didn't know how Xiao's plunge worked until recently but he may actually do a ton of damage. So idk if he looks fun for you maybe that's not so bad. EDIT: Shop is Beidou, Noelle.

I've been waffling on my shop pick all month since I use both Fischl (C5) and phusical Xianling (C1) a lot. Does Xianling's C2 provide a lot of damage/pyro application? I'm leaning away from Fischl simply because it feels like future pulls would be "wasted" but if her C6 is THAT much more powerful than Xianling's C2, I could live with it.

Couldn't they tell us the banner before the month resets? I'm sitting on 5k primo debating whether to pull for XQ or Noelle constellations and possibly get starglitter for C6 Fischl. Barbara and Xinyan being on the same banner would be a hard no for me.

Hm. I think I'll hold off on pulling unless Xiao is that great. I don't even care if Hu Tao isn't great, I love her character design and want her. Guess I'll have more time to stockpile primos if he's not worth going for. Kinda wanna do a tenpull and maybe get a xingqiu though. In fact, gently caress. Let's do it live. Hold on.  WELL then. I... did not see that coming, I hadn't done any pulls since pulling Ganyu on day 1 of the banner, so this is a tenpull fresh off of pity. Hello, yeet cannon and R2 Stringless.
