Baizhu’s just a colourfully dressed NPC who carries the actual upcoming character, a talking snake, for convenience.

I have wanted Baizhu so bad since the game launched. I do wonder if his diction is quite as outrageous in the chinese version.

3.1 patch notes out

Ugh, Abyss blessings for all 3 phases are for bloom teams only

quote:

Phase 1:
Pruning Moon
After a character triggers Bloom, Hyperbloom, or Burgeon, all party members will have their Elemental Mastery increased by 40 for 10s. This effect can be triggered once every 0.1s. Max 5 stacks. Each stack's duration is counted independently.
Phase 2:
Ascending Moon
After opponents take DMG from Dendro Cores (this includes Burgeon and Hyperbloom DMG), their All Elemental and Physical RES will decrease by 8% for 6s. Max 4 stacks.
Phase 3:
Rupturing Moon
When Dendro Core attacks (this includes Burgeon and Hyperbloom attacks) hit an opponent, a shockwave will be unleashed at that opponent's position, dealing True DMG. A shockwave can be unleashed this way every 2s.

So it goes. Should be plenty of resources to still go for Cyno though.

No Cyno, but I got Candace C1 and the patch just came out so I'm optimistic. Worst case scenario, ohhh nooo I have to pull for Nahida instead how terrrriiible :v:

Got C1-C3 Sayus, a C3 Collei, and a C1 Tighnari

Figured I'd push my luck a bit more and got 3 Kuki's in a row, followed by:



I'm all set for 3.2

Cyno was pretty fun though. Maybe next time.

a storm is coming...

Got two Sayus, three Candaces and a couple weapons I didn't have yet from my 60 pulls (Finally got a goddamn stringless), but didn't get the one thing I really wanted which was a single drat Kuki. I'm wondering if I should risk another 10 pull once I get enough primos, I really want Nahida and don't particularly care for Cyno, but drat do I want Shinobu. I know 4 stars rotate way more often than 5 stars, what with there being 3 to a patch, but still.

Also got Mona :confused:

Also got Sayu to C5, Candace C0, and Shinobu to C1, falling 1 short of the constellation level I was shooting for for all of them... but at least I missed Cyno :woop:

At least even at C0, the Ayato/Candace/Yun Jin/Zhongli team works how I wanted it to. It's still a weird disjointed rotation, but at least it plays nice :buddy:

Character banner got me my most wanted pity breaker, Tighnari! :toot: Plus a C4 Candace, C4 Shinobu (from C1) and C6 Sayu (from C3) on my way to Cyno. This was probably my best night ever for pulling and I still have enough left over to guarantee Nahida.

Someone convince me that it's a good idea to keep pulling for Candace at 58 pity when I don't want Cyno and already have Venti. It's starting to get very spooky.

Keep pulling, having Cyno isn't going to make your account worse somehow.

Cyno in 42 pulls, winning 50/50, and a Candace for collection purposes. Still got 260 rolls banked.

Will I finally pull on the weapon banner for Scaramouche? Maybe!

I dunno, I was in a similar situation with Thoma on the Hu Tao banner. If I hadn't pulled I'd have Yelan (top 1 most wanted) instead of Hu Tao (permabenched).

But also I literally just pulled to 70 pity chasing 4 stars so maybe my advice doesn't hold much value lol

Well drat did a why not 10 pull way short of 50/50 pity for Candace or Kuki and Cyno pops up. I don't even know what his deal is suppose to be I was not prepared.

Exactly same, though I got Candace in the same 10 pull. Completely shocked.

Is this the same way Barbara works now too I don't remember

e: oh wait duh :thunk:
I got this immediately because I've already cleared the required spiral abyss floor, since the ones below 9 are one-time-only

Losing a long pity streak is a pretty hefty opportunity cost, though.

I'm in a similar position, trying to decide if I want to fish for one more constellation.

They kind of have to, technically you could get away with dendro mc I guess, but like Amber, a denro archer is kind of required for some of the sumeru monument overworld puzzles.

also, dendro's probably going to be important to the meta for a long while yet, and they need to give new players some taste of what that's like

So are we all gonna level up a 2nd black tassel for Candace? I don't want Zhongli sharing a weapon. Swapping all the time would be such a hassle I tend to use Zhongli.

I got the sac sword on the standard banner so I'm happy. It's just not right how important that drat sword is, just going from R1 to R2 is noticeable.

The worst part about these new characters is always collecting ascension mats. I feel like if they tripled the amount on the map and quintupled the amount you needed, I wouldn't even mind. They feel WAY too scarce sometimes.

I got a second Sac Sword today too. I'm debating whether the refine is worth more than levelling it up and having a second one to go around. I do have a lot of other good swords already, but not in the same niche.

After giving up on going for Candace I spent 160 primos for a single roll on the alt account I made for my kid and pulled her, lol.

Starting to think my real account is cursed and this one is blessed because the first has also never won a 50/50 while the second has never lost.
