Lol, more plunging attack events. I stopped playing for months and came back to more plunging. I'm glad the plunging attack guy on the team is getting steady work.

...I didn't do any plunging attacks though, sorry.

So I re-imaged my machine because I got a new motherboard/cpu and now when I log into genshin it never saves my credential / auto login. What am I doing wrong here, I've never had this issue before on my PC or cellphone

The Primal Ember from here was the one I guided to the torch, now it wants me to guide it again, but the sconce is empty. Here's the other one, also empty and the lit torch:

It looks like you're standing in front of a door and only one side is lit. The quest marker might be bugged but your goal is to find the other primal ember to light up the right side pillar.

Maybe try reinstalling genshin? Either that or you have a hosed up windows user, game should save your credentials in "Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\miHoYo\Genshin Impact" registry entry.

edit:
The launcher has a repair option, maybe give it a try.

It's a very "no dessert until you've finished your dinner" sort of design, and it's rather annoying. It'd be fine if you ended up with a high enough clearance before you left for the next stop on the quest, but it seems they would simply prefer you do just what the quest says and then go exploring later.

The nice part about the whole Clearance thing and the quest is that the quest only gets you up to Clearance 1. The other 3 levels are entirely up to you to gently caress around and figure out on your own. It seems like a decent compromise to me?

That is not even slightly true, the other 3 levels come from a separate quest that becomes available a day after you finish the first one.

Edit: Maybe it's possible to find them on your own without the quest? But it definitely points you to them, and there's no point in exploring anywhere else until you finish it.

Oh, I absolutely wasn't aware of that. I just found them all on my own, the quest isn't required at all I guess. That's lame then.

You can get the other levels without the quest <---- idiot who did that.
You just need to go down the temple of magma and you'll be able to reach the area with level 2 with alot of running around in underground caves without a guide.

I stumbled on one extra level of clearance on my own, but I'm feeling pretty lost in the underground at this point. I know there are places I haven't been, but no idea how to find them. I like the desert underground way more than previous caves, at least.

Its huge, and as you go through different temples and such, you'll see that some of the tunnels lead to rock walls that break and end up connecting to the big underground area you're first led to in the quest

If its any consolation, Qiqi isnt nearly as bad as she used to be. Stick a Clam artifact set on her, a Sac Sword or The Flute (depending what you have to hand) and shes a really good healer who sometimes causes a bubble to burst and delete enemies around her. Its still disappointing as hell not getting the on-banner 5* but she isnt dead weight.

The good news is that now you have a guaranteed rate-up lined up for Nahida or whoever else you want. I got a Diluc off the monthly wishes so I'm in the same boat.

HA! HA! NICE! WHAT A TOOL!
So, Cyno. He's not very strong, his damage isn't anything special and then he's mechanically disadvantaged in a lot of noticeable ways (no dmg stacking mechanic so buffers like yunjin don't work well, long on-field time, requires so much energy that it is hard to get out of 2 electro to activate electro resonance, not good at multihitting mobs with his normal attacks because their range is so short, enemies are harder to dodge when you're right next to them, etc). Nahida will obviously improve him a lot but you kind of already take that as a given. The best feeling team by far for me is Cyno/Beidou/Zhongli/Dendro but you need 4TF with how little energy Beidou will bring and how much is needed. (Full disclosure I own a few Cs and an R1 so I am extrapolating a bit as to how 89/90 C0R0 would feel knowing that it would do ~38% less damage).

Keqing is actually one of the better drivers for Quicken teams now, with Thunderfury. As a 1.0 character, she can keep her infusion after swapping so more buffs work on her+bigger margin of error because you don't accidentally waste 15 seconds of Cyno's buff or something.

I’m AR 36 now and still haven’t pulled any main dps characters.

Using Noelle is…okay, but I saw I can buy Razor for stardust this month and I’m wondering if it’s worth picking him up for levelling.

I know he’s not very good in lategame and I don’t really have any superconduct support, but Noelle is increasingly feeling like dead weight who’s only good for quick swapping when her shield/burst is up.

Yeah Noelle is best as a main DPS at C6 which is a long way off. Razor is a fine dps.

Razor has had a funny development since he went from a physical dps carry that fell of a cliff at higher gear levels to a...reaction based abomination that overlaps a million different mechanics to pull respectable damage.

Its why Cyno feels kinda incomplete. Top end Keqing and Razor are plane better than him and have been out since the game came out.

After putting an er spear + some extra er and ditching tf set for a 2p/2p combo with better crit value I found him much more usable. Not having to worry about lining up tf refreshes with his A1 let you move around, dodge stuff and have some actual fun. Skipping the last 4 seconds of his ult also helped. With c0 and skyward spine I've been able to kill the high hp ow bosses in one rotation and he felt good enough in abyss 12-X-2. 160 Er felt enough for me to pair him with beidou and use his ult liberally in OW.

Decided to fully level up Beidou so I had to do the Electro cube for the first time since forever and Tighnari makes it absolutely hilarious, he solo one cycles the thing with aggravates in like under a minute.

Two characters you have that feel better as a main dps than Noelle, imo: Kaeya and Geo Traveler. Many people don't like the rock chunks that geo traveler puts on the field, but I think they are kind of fun.

But yeah, let's see what else you got.

I would go for razor, he's a easy straight forward character to use. If you like him.
I used him all the way to the end, and that without knowing about superconduct. He holds off just fine against everything except the last floors of the abyss.

This made me realize I actually skipped Geo Traveller entirely since I took a detour for early Dendro. I’ll go grab him and check out his kit.

Pretty much everything gets murdered by the Bennett, Xiangling, Xingqiu team so I’m still having a lot of fun but it’s weird feeling like I have 3 and a half team members at all times. Tried Qiqi with Diona battery but it didn’t feel great.

You can do something with Xiangling/XQ/Bennett/maybe Sucrose with this roster, but buying Razor would give you a second team with no overlapping members for Abyss (Razor/Qiqi/Diona or Kaeya). Not the worst idea.

I am not good with team compositions but with those characters I'd go with Bennett, Xiangling, Xingqiu and add Sucrose once/if you get her some Viridescent Venerer artifacts and try to get Bennet maybe a Gladiator set and have him as your main DPS? He's very flexible like that.

If your Sucrose is leveled up you should check out how she works at that level. My guess is that if you drop Guoba with Xiangling and then swap to Sucrose and double E everything will be dead or near dead as long as it isn't immune to pyro.

A team like Sucrose, Xiangling, Bennett, (Xingqiu or Kaeya)

You could shove Sucrose in there for swirl + CC, and eventually the resist debuff from Viridescent Venerer.
