I got Beidou today too. Is there a potential fourth member out there for my Candace/Beidou/Yun Jin all-parry gimmick team?

Sanctum posted: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 don't do weapon swapping things, and while that means that someone will inevitably end up with a somewhat crap weapon, it usually works out fine. My zhongli has a still not max leveled dragonspine spear, and he's still just fine at making shields and dropping meteors, despite how generally useless that thing is for him. Mostly this results in whoever I use least as a sword guy ending up with a level 60 flute, and there's a huge raft of characters I don't really use. YMMV. Speaking of sacrificial stuff, does anyone besides beidou actually want a sacrificial claymore? I keep getting them and I can't decide if it's worth parking hers at r5 or giving it to someone like poor chongyun, with his debate club. My gacha claymore luck is so terrible, I'm swimming in bells and favs and rainslashers, although the last one is kinda alright for sayu. Thankfully I'm done friendshipping claymore guys for now, so I can leave razor with that bloodtained whatever and not care. FractalSandwich posted:I got Beidou today too. Is there a potential fourth member out there for my Candace/Beidou/Yun Jin all-parry gimmick team? If you're flexible with the meaning of the word parry, you could probably use rosaria's skill as a sort of quick dodge? I don't think it properly teleports through enemies, so you might just end up parking her in front of the thing you were tyring to not get hit with.

https://twitter.com/GenshinImpact/status/1574972168261099521 This year's "my year in review" thing is up. I killed fewer slimes and hilchurls than last year, which isn't surprising because there's not much point in doing so. Nice that they'll compare it to last year's totals, if you have them.

Wish time, fingers crossed. (60) Favonius Greatsword (70) Qiqi C2 Kuki Shinobu C1(10) Sayu C3 Favonius Greatsword I forgot that I needed more of all these characters. I'm out of wishes but at least my next 5* in 3.8 is guaranteed. Also wow, Candace's attacks are both slow and also very weak which is a weird combo. Really would've liked more constellations, Sayu's healing is very minimal and I assume that the C6 is what really puts it over the line. Or at least gets her ticking close to 1000.

I hit my pity 50/50 on a 10 pull between 71 and 81. Never thought I'd be disappointed to get Jean, but here we are. No Candace, but I'm debating whether to save the primos from the patch for the next banner or get a guaranteed Cyno.

Cyno kind of perplexes me. Like on the one hand he's a straight up NA carry, like a fixed version of Xiao, and that seems like it'd be a strength with aggravate. On the other hand I feel like we won't know if he's strong or not until Nahida drops and welp. Also he has no nipples.Harrow posted:You can only really work with the information you have about the game state as it currently exists when you're evaluating a character, after all. Shhh.

Just looking at both chars, if I had been leaked the design like 3 months ago without knowing anything about either, i'd guess Candace to be the 5 and Cyno the 4, since 4s tend to look more plain than 5s.

FractalSandwich posted: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. Personally I believe it's always better to refine 4 stars. The amount of times when you'd want to run two exact copies of a weapon on a team is pretty rare relative to the resources you'd invest to take them to 90. Doubly so for sac weapons because there's a huge difference between 40% activation and eventually 80%. Mailer posted:Cyno kind of perplexes me.

He's very weird because his burst lasts long enough it actually becomes a detriment, but it's cooldown and damage are balanced on how long it lasts. He'd just be better if it was a shorter cd and duration.

There's never enough ER substat weapons to go around though, so sac weapons are one of the few that it's arguably worth it to keep unrefined.

I'm not sure there's that many mages/claymores that want sac weapons, but swords are generally good to have multiples of. Incidentally, they've finally added a proper teleport point to the teapot, beyond the ones you set yourself. That's kinda nice, and I guess a good reminder that I should rejigger mine at some point. Maybe by now they've sorted out load enough that I can actually enclose my house with walls and not bash up against the load limit.

He'd just be better if it was a shorter cd and duration. I had a hard time testing aggravate during his trial, but his burst was fun enough to play with on its own. I suspect his best friend would be someone with a Dendro version of Raiden's E, if they ever make one. Also a good healer who doesn't mess up reactions, because man is it easy to go mindlessly aggro. Probably Jean or Sayu. Or just Zhongli. On a completely unrelated note, there's quite a few new voicelines from Mondstadters about Mika. Makes me excited that he might be arriving sooner than leakers have indicated.

There are more scarabs on the map than onikabuto but almost half of them are underground and locked behind puzzles that require me to have special permission. They will never stop being dicks with ascension materials and it is annoying.

It would be nice if we could reject the local god's plan as "dumb bullshit," even if said god happily ignored that sage advice. I feel like even ignoring the whole "I have wandered worlds for centuries" thing, we've seen enough to know that these plans are trash for idiots. It would feel better if the god forced them upon us, instead of this traveler just shrugging and accepting the idiot consequences.

Threw like 50 wishes in, got Candace C2, Sayu C5, Kuki C4 (from C0) and.. a Diluc C3.  Oh well. Time to start saving for the Archon. Finally the vertical aim speed works! Too bad my loving stick drifts worse now, they need to add a deadzone into this game. The new PS5 haptics on bursts are neat though.

I've been playing Heizou as my main DPS and only(*) anemo character for so long that I expected Sayu's normal attacks to trigger Swirl at first.

She will have a solid crit stats with high em, I could see her shooting a normal or two in most teams, maybe even N1C if normal and charged have separate ICD.

Hearing about Cyno's long on-field time as a weakness is fun to me because I remember when I didn't know better and was disappointed that Ayato could only do 6 seconds of on-field attacking at a time. For some reason I really wanted him to have more on-field time and I thought this made him "not a main DPS." Obviously I've learned now that I was thinking about team building all wrong and that limited field time can actually be a strength. It's not just that he can only do his on-field hydro attacking for 6 seconds at a time--it also means he only needs 6 seconds of field time per rotation, leaving time for your other characters to use their skills and/or bursts again before you rotate back. Cyno seems really cool but even during his trial I could feel his burst just dragging on. That he has a full 18 seconds of uptime if you use his burst correctly, and seems balanced around that much uptime, means his burst lasts longer than most (or any?) buffs and debuffs he'd also want to be making use of. Kazuha's swirl damage boost is only 8 seconds, C6 Sucrose's EM boost is 6 seconds, Viridescent Venerer's resistance shred is 10 seconds, etc. Well, Zhongli's shield can last the whole time, so that's nice at least.

So I got C2 Shinobu within 50 pulls last night (the last two came on the same 10-pull along with C1 Heizou  ), and then one of the standard wishes I got from ascending her popped out an Amos Bow. Not a bad night of wishing last night.Other than Ganyu (since I don't have her), who can make decent use of the Amos Bow? It seems like it's fallen out of favor recently.

My plan for Cyno was Zhongli, DMC, Yelan/Fish/Albedo, his aoe looks decent and his melee tracking + long reach of CA should help close the gaps with enemies so he should work without fine anemo suck. I don't think you need to use all the duration of his ult anyway, I'll probably stay for 14-15 second or so then cycle the buffs again.

 EDIT: having played some cyno, actually getting value out of 4TF feels totally unrealistic. I'm definitely going to shoot for 4Gilded with some extra ER, and the difference between 4Gilded and 2Gilded 2Wanderer's is so small (40EM and 14% atk) that it will be a long time before I actually switch over.
