Nobody has been talking about the toy making event, but on the off chance that anyone here is doing it and they want the special owl robot, I found a way that worked for me: 3 fruits + 2 flowers, all hydro, 2 slimes + 1 specter. Don't know if it's guaranteed since I only wanted 1 robot, but I did manage to get it in a single try.

The event tells you the recipes for all the variations and the special ones don't have one.

The toy making event only working with pyro/hydro/electro reactions is a fun hint about dendro (though we've already had it spoiled heh)

Oh yeah, and another thing. At least for the recipe collection stage, you don't have to kill any bosses. You can also kill eyes of the storm. There are 2 of them a bit north of the mt aocang teleport point in northwestern liyue. I was able to get that owl pretty quickly lol

i remember i used to have those marked, as if i would farm eyes daily for the 1.2k mora they each drop or w/e. will probably end up there at some point since they are less annoying than some bosses, but i've been taking down the ones i actually like to fight so far. my new complaint is i think you still have to collect everything in the same order? it would be nice if i could free-form fill up the collector when i come across say, a random electro crystal during my flower collection.

I hope the forests are nice and dense and really feel like a jungle, it would couple nicely with the desert parts. At the very least I hope we don't get the awkward verticality of Inazuma. I miss the open plains of Mondstadt, honestly. But yeah, it looks pretty sweet so far. And the map is pretty gigantic too.

The events not featuring named characters are often pretty hit or miss with some quippy Paimon dialogue being the highlight half the time.

Any advice for killing the 3 Abyss mages that protect the Princess box on Dragonspire? Killing all 3 in a minute seems impossible. Currently running a Yelan freeze team, but I've tried other team comps and still don't really come close.

It's been a while since I've done that one, but multiple abyss mages usually call for kiting them into one spot and then Anemo to break all their shields.

Swirl is usually a good way to take care of them, especially if they're all conflicting elements. I can't remember what they are but if it's Dragonspine they're all cryo? Try to swirl pyro on them to wreck their shields and kill them however you want.

If it is, there’s trick to swim across the water and use amber’s ult/bow. Her charged attacks rapidly deplete their shields, her ult hits multiple times, and there’s a section across the water where the grass catches on fire and depletes their shields that way. Or ask in discord. I did it in multiplayer when they had multiplayer events in dragonspine. Those were fun

70 solvent as well here. You are limited by weekly mats for a quite a while starting off but I always kept 2 of each weekly material before converting anything. Avoids the trap of converting all of X->Y and then be converting Y->X later. I definitely used solvent a lot and it does take a long time to reach the point where your talents aren't limited by weekly boss drops. It's not bad advice keep a little of each material before converting so you avoid wasting solvent, but also something anyone can safely ignore. You can save more solvents in the long run by holding off, but in the long run you'll have all the solvents you need so saving them doesn't matter.

Currently running a Yelan freeze team, but I've tried other team comps and still don't really come close. That's the encounter with 3 cryo mages, right? A freeze team isn't going to do much against cryo abyss mage shields. You kind of need pyro to break their shields quickly. Xiangling is pretty good at destroying their shields if you have Pyronado up as well. Ambers burst downs them immediately as well, but a lot of people don't like playing her, so you might not have her levelled. Not sure whether she gets a penalty if she's underlevelled, but you could potentially sacrifice a slot just to have her down one of them with her burst. Ambers charge attacks are also relatively strong against cryo shields, although Bennett has the same benefit with his press skill. I think Noelle under her burst isn't terrible for those as an alternative, due to claymore shield breaking + geo, but it's not really optimal either.

I've just been having prototype gaining issues like everyone but solvents have been dropping pretty consistently to the point that I thought you just regularly got them nearly every world boss fight like element fragments. And that's with me finally making an effort to actually start fighting them every week about 3 months after I started

Currently running a Yelan freeze team, but I've tried other team comps and still don't really come close. That was one of the hardest challenges I ever did in the game tbh. I think what I did was get to about level 60 or 70 and drop the world level to the lowest level I could and used Xiangling and Diluc to take care of them. They will also eventually teleport to you if you wait in place long enough making you avoid having to go out to far and risk falling into the water. Also having the 3 Red Seelie torches lit or Goulash unlocked and popping one is kind of a must at lower levels. Maybe even some Attack/DEF food. Yanfei is also probably good if you want to be able to Attack from a distance as is obviously Yoimiya who is probably the ideal character for that challenge but I figure you probably dont have her. She'll be available again shortly though if you want to wait. My one buddy that mains her slapped a sacrificial bow on her for the challenge and boom easy peasy in his run through Dragonspine

Currently running a Yelan freeze team, but I've tried other team comps and still don't really come close. Freeze teams are not great against abyss mages -- you need to use the elements that their shields are actually weak to if you want to kill them in any reasonable amount of time. Which elements are those 3? I assume they're doing the 1-fire-1-ice-1-water thing, so you need to bring a water character to break the fire shield, a fire character to break the ice shield, and an ice or electro character to beat the water shield (but water shields don't have real weaknesses and still take way longer to break than the other elements even with the "right" matching weaknesses for some reason). You probably have time to brute force through the hydro shield if you bring hydro & pyro characters to beat the pyro & ice shields, since those elements melt through their shields really fast. Although it still depends on which character you bring as some can apply their elements a lot faster than others. Or you can bait their movement until they all get close together and use a character like Sucrose or Anemo MC. Their multi-hitting anemo effects cause swirl reactions from all 3 shields which will cause a big ugly element soup that can quickly melt through all three.

Sanctum posted:I've been using L27 Amber on daily commissions at WL8 and her burst does crazy elemental application that destroys cryo mage elemental shields. There are level-scaling penalties to damage and reaction damage but not elemental application AFAIK Correct the Application is set by the attack being used and nothing else matters about it. So lvl 1 Amber will break a Shield just as fast as a 90.

The island one is 2 cyro and a hydro, so the answer's still "use pyro on them," but you can at least freeze the water guy if you swirl. I'm afraid my answer to that challenge was probalby "fischl and hu tao," which probably isn't terribly helpful. Bringing amber along solely to tear down the shields is probably your best bet, along with paying attention to where the hydro guy is so you don't get stuck in a bubble/wet and then waste a ton of time getting unstuck. (And of course, waiting for wet to wear off before starting it if you can; I don't remember if there's a way to the island without swimming, nor do I remember if those guys just pop up when you walk up to the tree or if you had to activate something there).

If you have a way to yeet the mages into the water after their shields break, you can also save some time It was a long time ago for me, but I'm pretty sure Xinyan was the Pyro I used for 90% of Dragonspine when it was released. She's pretty good in that encounter because of how much AoE Pyro she can apply quickly gandlethorpe fucked around with this message at 01:54 on Jul 3, 2022 |

Oh hell yeah thank you for all that info. I put together a vaporize superteam, which includes Amber. I failed but came closer. I'll cycle Xinyan into the team next, her burst does own for this. I'll also give my anemo traveler a try and see if I can't get lucky on a swirl. Re: buffs, I've been doing atk/def food and then pyro buff/cryo debuff potions. From a lifetime of playing crpg's I instinctively want to hit Save somehow before I touch the sword. Save/Load before a tough fight is burned into my brain like the screen on an amber monitor.
