I guess the Noelle one is trying to be some awful full-support shield/healer noelle rather than a build meant to do damage with her burst. Use the builds there as a starting point but yeah it sounds like you should take them with a grain of salt. You can use this website to see the most common sets + weapons for characters based on real data from teams that full-clear spiral abyss. But it doesn't have details on the specific artifact mainstats, it just shows which set bonus was used. For example, 21% of Abyss-clearing Monas use 4-piece Noblesse, while 16% use 2-piece Noblesse + 2-piece Heart of Depths. RPATDO_LAMD fucked around with this message at 05:45 on Aug 9, 2021 |

Bloody Emissary posted:Yep. Klee, Venti, and Zhongli have all had rerun banners. just fyi fellow C2 Albedo wanter, Albedo's C2 just adds additional damage equal to your number of stacks * 30% defense, so its a plus to your damage, not a multiplier. Your new damage output is basically initial scaling + 120% defense, though this additional defense scaling also applies to the first burst hit and EVERY fatal blossom, so it can add up (and the bonus damage is modified by crit and your damage % modifiers, of course). It does make the burst hit harder, but not as much as you might be lead to believe. But making your defense scaling work on burst is great and cool. Now if only Albedo's blossoms would trigger on shielded enemies... And hey if you're going C2, why not whale and go for C3 for that +3 levels to E? Who needs money anyways?

i just think the Albedo C2 flower looks nice at this point there are enough 5* now where i'd like to pop an extra C or two on, on top of just wanting to save for new ones. it's a big choice paralysis but i stay on the side of new things. maybe i can somehow make it out of 2.1 without touching a roll though.

BoldFace posted:Calling bullshit on this. Do you have a source? My source is that I read it on the internet somewhere. Apparently it's just a rumor that keeps on popping up. I'm sure I read a pretty elaborate story of some gacha game in Japan that had new characters that were super strong on release, then nerfed later to make people whale for the new ones. It had a lot of truthiness to it.

It also gives priorities, which should answer the question of "Do I want to use DEF or ATK sands?" for a specific character as well as telling you what you want for substats.

gandlethorpe posted:Ready for 2.1 Tsyni posted:Nice goblet, you cad. Interesting tidbit for future Raiden wishers: ATK goblets for Raiden are actually quite competitive with Electro DMG because she gets so many goddamn DMG multipliers from her passive and artifact set. I have a comparable ATK goblet, but it's actually only on par (or even slightly worse) than my Electro goblet due to my Electro goblet making up some of the ATK difference in the substats. This is before counting the slightly worse CRate roll.  I plan to use the 4* event weapon on her, which slightly favors ATK goblets due to having a DMG multiplier. Her 5* banner weapon gives an ATK bonus, favoring the Electro goblet. This is the most tempted I've ever been for a weapon banner, but I must resist.

This game is kind of unclear in tone when it comes to violence. Like apparently people are being wounded/killed, but it's hard to imagine that Traveler is (most recent story chapter) gutting and dismembering a bunch of Shogunate forces (the same forces you talk to and do random side quests for).gandlethorpe posted:Ready for 2.1 I'm the 19.7% DEF on the feather I've started running that domain but have only gotten a bunch of garbage so far. Tae posted:Genshin gg has been bad since week 1 I think that's the one that had Bennett rated super low. Even now, Google is incredibly bad for finding information about games like this. You just end up with links to a handful of the same sites that present you with "tier lists" that just consist of characters filed into tiers directly corresponding to their rarity. I think that many of these articles aren't even written by people who have played the game. Ytlaya fucked around with this message at 08:51 on Aug 9, 2021 |

I am using def/geo dmg/def for Noelle to max out her burst numbers, since you can't really make solid crit numbers there, either the rate or damage will be kinda meh as Whiteblind secondary is def. Theoretically you could luck out on great numbers in substats, but I ain't minmaxing that.

I'm making a plan for the Yoimiya banner. I'm gonna wish on it because I want Diona and Sayu, but I have some very defined stopping points. I will stop at 60 wishes (the amount I have saved), if I get one (1) Diona, or if I get an early 5* that isn't Yoimiya (so I don't accidentally blow a guarantee before Raiden with two "lucky" pulls). Whichever comes first. That's the plan and I'm sticking to it so I don't have another Klee banner situation, trying to swim through a sea of Barbaras to find a single Fischl or Sucrose.

I'm only like two wishes in after getting Qiqi'd on Ayaka's banner with around 50 wishes in the bank so I'm in pretty good shape for getting Sayu (might risk it for her C1 at least) and not Yoimiya while building up a guaranteed pity for Baal. That's the plan anyway. Watch this space for when I get Yo on my third pull and never get Sayu and I'm skint on primos for Baal's banner.

An early 5* who ends up being the featured one is just kind of a bonus I guess. It's just if get an early 5* and lose the 50/50 then I'm stopping immediately so I can save my guarantee. The real nightmare scenario is blowing all 60 wishes and ending up with a C6 Xinyan and nothing else

I've done similarly on half a dozen banners and only gotten punished once. It's not as crazy as people make it out to be especially on coinflip pity and especially if you don't mind pulling the 5* that much. I wouldnt take the risk on total bricks like Ayaka C1, Venti C1, Ganyu C2, but I'm hoping Yoimiya won't be completely useless vs the single-target focused bosses that are being added to this and future abysses.

I had a pretty productive 37 wishes on this banner in my quest to get C6 Ningguang. Unfortunately I have no idea how close I was to pity because Mihoyo wiped all the wish history at some point since the last time I played.

They delete all wish history older than 6 months for some stupid reason. I have a google spreadsheet that I update every so often - I know there are websites you can upload data to as well but it feels sketchy.

No Wave posted:The fact the feather is the worst piece by a lot is so peculiar to me. Also fwiw if you're planning on using the catch atk goblet will be better when using ER sands if you're not using bennett - right now your raiden will only have something like 50% atk and will have at least 80% dmg from A4 passive and catch passive. It's a great electro cup so it's still fine if that's your best but I have a lot of other electros who could use that thing! Yeah, it's weird. I've done it tons of times already, yet haven't gotten anything better. Oh well, it's currently my favorite domain to run, so replacing it won't be a drag. Luckily I have an ATK to replace the goblet, but in the mean time she can keep it warm for Yae Miko.

It's for sure a fun domain, 40 to 50 seconds and all your ults are back at the end too. It's peculiar that superconduct is so poo poo yet cryo deletes electro shields.

"On screen" deaths aren't deaths, you're just beating the crap out of people and they are giving up. Think 1980s GI Joe cartoons. Same with the treasure hoarders etc. It's why when you kill them not in a frozen state they throw down smoke grenades. Killing humans in vidya games is against Chinese censorship laws, so they skirt around it. I honestly don't mind, since western gaming has made a not-always-aware self parody of the "visceralness" of fighting.

As much as I hate Electro reactions, I'm hyped for Raiden. She enables burst spam comps with frequent cycling, which are my favorite kind. We still don't really know how her whole kit will work, but at least a few things are certain: she gives the team energy, buffs their bursts, and gets buffed by her team using bursts. What's not to like? (Other than her element... I'm not giving up hope they'll buff it eventually) Story-wise, I'm confident miHoYo will flesh out her character in a satisfying way. One of her idle animations is decidedly in conflict with her image as a merciless warlord. What's interesting is that pairing her with Kokomi seems like it'll form a good core for any team, covering any energy and healing needs to slot whatever else you want.

Being really close to guaranteed 5* is kind of a prison. I wouldn't mind Ayaka/Yoimiya, and really want the 4 stars/constellations on the banner. but I sure as hell am not missing out on the Archon again on the first banner, especially since what I've heard of her leaks is especially my jam.
