How do I get better at using Hu Tao to attack? I keep seeing people on youtube doing all those charge cancels and I don't really get it. My Tao is C1 with a R3 Dragon's Bane.

Don’t hold forward while charging then jump.

You just jump or dash as early as possible after hitting the charge attack and then repeat it over again. Dashing is better/faster than jumping but costs more stamina -- C0 Hu Tao can't do it or she'll run dry, but C1 can. You loop either 1 or 2 normal attacks, charge, dash, repeat, until your skill ends. Apparently the 2-attack-before-charge version is more optimal but tighter timing and harder to do. If you want to practice the timing, buy one of those level 1 spears from the blacksmith in Monstadt so your Hu Tao does 0 damage and then spend a while hitting a regisvine or some overworld enemy over and over. Check the "Animation Cancels & Combos" section of the Keqingmains guide for more in-depth info by someone who (unlike me) knows what they're talking about. According to them, the best you can do with perfect timing is 12 hit-hit-charge-dash loops in one skill duration, but a more realistic number is 8-10.

I’m gonna repeat it just because it’s incredibly obvious how everything works once you see it: neutral jumps. Don’t be holding a direction when you jump. It is the difference between working and not. Nothing ever actually mentions this for some reason.

you'll hit the dodge timer if you're cancelling perfectly and have to jump every 3rd charge even with c1 unless you're doing an alternate rotation specifically to avoid hitting it.

Bloody Emissary posted:In the past, when doing the Mondstadt talent domain with my friend who runs Bennett, I've brought Kazuha along with the goal of Swirling around Pyro off of the self-application from Bennett's burst. It's been an exercise in frustration every time, because he tries to hold Bennett's burst until one of us takes enough damage that we need healing instead of keeping the field up constantly. You can't keep it on the field constantly, there's a three second gap between the duration and CD.

I wish the BP had infinite levels after you hit 50, it could even be crap like a dripfeed of Mora and crystals and crap, I don't care.

I'm conflicted on refining my Serpent Spine or keeping them separate to equip on multiple characters. The R1 to R5 max bonus goes from +30% DMG to +50%, which sounds like it's 66% stronger. But in reality you've got at least a 46.6% goblet bonus already, then probably some more from artifact sets, and even more if you run Kazuha. In the end, it's really only about a 20% increase for 6 months' worth of BPs. The difference between each rank is gonna be even harder to notice. On the other hand, it's still number going up.

For one thing it's literally less likely to get good substats on items with crit/attack mainstats since the substat that matches the mainstat can never roll. If the only substats you want are crit chance, crit damage, and atk, they instantly only have 2/3ds as many "good" options as, say, flowers do.

Getting good flowers/feathers is technically easy, seeing as the lack of main stat variation means one less thing for the RNG to screw up. Sadly you can almost never afford to have flowers or feathers be an off-set piece, since the odds of getting a good in-set goblet is small, and both goblet AND head piece even smaller. I have so many good and potentially good flowers and feathers that I can't find a home for because they're either not in sets that any of my characters need, or they're not obvious upgrades for characters that already have same-set pieces.

Zebia posted:I'm not sure how to best use Ayaka. What team composition should I use with her? The only situation where she's "dominating the meta" is in whale speedrun poo poo, where she is absolutely ridiculous due to the sheer power of her burst. She's still very good outside of that. I haven't heard much talk about people using her in Melt teams, but she's great in a Freeze team. Ideally with Mona+Venti and either Ganyu or Diona, but Xingqiu and Kazuha work too. Supposedly she can also work with Raiden, since Raiden's E doesn't apply electro fast enough to ruin the freezing.

Ayaka's best reaction is freeze and her staple teammates are Kazuha and Mona because they provide huge damage buffs to freeze. The "standard" comp for her is Ayaka Kazuha Diona Mona. I hate how diona feels playing wirh her so I use Rosaria instead and use mona as healer with prototyoe Amber. You can substitute other hydro/anemo as you need (before I pulled Mona I used Barbara, Venti/sucrose can be fine, using jean is sometimes fine but grouping is especially good with Ayaka due to her burst and some ungroupable enemies can be grouped while frozen). The reason Ayaka is especially popular now is a.) she's amazing and b.) she functions without Bennett/Xiangling/Xingqiu letting you play that support-hogging raiden team. Give her 4 piece blizzard strayer and the anemomnema kageuchi craftable unless you have a 5 star weapon. Energy recharge is a huge concern for her and the kageuchi can really help (mine has 145 ER and it's just enough with favonious Rosaria) No Wave fucked around with this message at 16:00 on Nov 9, 2021 |

Ayaka is a character with like 3 constellations' worth of amazing poo poo just baked into her at c0+a4, on her dash alone: - Applies cryo in an aoe - Gives you cryo infusion - Gives you a damage buff for applying cryo - Restores stamina on that dash application of cryo On top of that she's a sword user who feels extremely satisfying in combat between big chunky skill hits, the massive shredder of her burst, and the fact that dash-canceling her attack string refunds a chunk of itself and refreshes your cryo infusion. My only criticisms of Ayaka are that her dash doesn't work on any altitude change at all, and that she honestly will make your other characters feel worse if you spend enough time with her.

Endorph posted:the only situation where shes dominating the meta is the only thing where the meta matters, correct I guess. I'd expect though that most people around here are effectively metagaming by doing the best they can with what they have though. I just wanted to clarify that for us lowly peasants, she probably isn't a tier above the other top dps characters.

I don’t like Ayaka’s character design so I don’t want to play as her, her performance doesn’t matter in my calculus This is also why I don’t like Xiangling, Xingqiu, and I really like Kaeya and Jean
