I'm still utterly appalled that they wasted Aoi Yuuki's voice on an almost completely non-speaking character. Just, why?

They're playing the long game. Once the Traveller gets her story-related powerup that makes her into the best unit in the game, she'll be a mainstay on every team and you'll be hearing her combat barks all the time.

For support on a bloom team do I want ATK over crit rate/dmg or are they both equally useless? Do I want an electro goblet or an EM goblet?

As far as bloom/hyperbloom reactions, neither crit nor attack matter. You'd still have the direct hits from your electro, but the value of crit vs attack for that on any single artifact depends on the rest of the build. And you'll want an EM goblet. Character level and EM are the only things that affect bloom and hyperbloom.

Decent way into the game and I’ve only just discovered there are dozens of fully voiced conversations between paimon and the traveller hidden in the travellers character page. Does it even tell you these exist at any point??

There's a marker for newly available voice lines on the character page but it's kinda hard to miss. (Most characters have a bunch of these that are unlocked by friendship levels.)

Sure but consider:
Aoi Yuuki and Paimon back and forth banter in every cutscene so far, compared to Paimon's solo dialog.

But how am I supposed to self insert into that sort of scenario? It's vitally important that we think Ayaka is dancing for us, not just another character with their own thoughts and emotions.

I mean Aether/Lumine are their own character with thoughts and emotions but if they don't have voiced lines maybe we can pretend otherwise.

I wish there was an option to replay character stories. Both as a way of remember them (since the time gap is soooo long) and as a mini trial because the 50/50 screwed you.

That memories thing had some bugs. It told me I just pulled Kokomi as my most recent new character, but that also Kokomi had been in 1200 domains or something as my most used character, which is not true.

You get 40 primos and a handful of mora, enhancement ore, and some gems.

The daily login event from a week ago also did a drawing for 10% of the entrants to get the welkin blessing and everyone else got 100k mora so check in on that, too. I got mora, but that's okay, I needed some.

Is there a world quest I'm missing in order to solve all these tomb puzzles? I finished all archon quests. Do I have to do Cyno's story quest?

Do a buncha puzzles and get to the end of the tomb. "Not enough clearance." Okay I'll get the sacred seals and bring them to the obelisk. Except I can't get the seals because at least one is behind some barrier and I need clearance to pass.

I went back to the village and started all the sidequests but they have nothing to do with the tombs.

Excelzior
Jun 24, 2013

the seals just open chests when you restore the obelisks, they dont grant clearance

the final bits of clearance are obtained by doing a world quest, yes - one that unlocks the day after you complete the first part of tomb raiding, "Golden Slumber". You need to go back to the statue of the Seven outside Aaru village on the next day to trigger it

Yeah I've been to the tower itself and I can use the ones that're just around the area and I was wondering if there was supposed to be a gadget or something that you could use because I don't get why it was saying I didn't have it unlocked.

Childe gets a AOE hydro damage burst on kill in melee stance if a target has the riptide debuff, and the AOE burst also can apply it. with weak enough enemies and camera manip you can kill one, trigger the explode and repeat.

Latest beta changes are out:

-Nahida overall got buffed. General improved numbers on Skill/Burst, has no ICD now
-Layla got her already low damage nerfed, but shield cooldown is lowered and burst only cost 40 now

Cao Ni Ma
May 25, 2010



Nahida and layla got some buffs in the last round of updates in the beta.

Nahida's E auto application got a cooldown increase between attacks, but now always trigger strong dendro application. So even when accelerated by electro Q it'll always trigger the reaction. Her Q also got a 5 second buff to its duration. A buff to both aggravate and bloom Nahida.

Laylas got her cooldowns and energy use on her burst decreased at the cost of a bit of damage. Her E also got a decrease in damage and cooldown. This means more uptime or her shield, would still be better as a support than Diona if you dont need heals.

Oh thank goodness nahida got buffed, she was really struggling back when she was merely extremely good in every team configuration involving a dendro unit. Hopefully next update they'll make her a healer too so that she actually just does everything (don't mention proto amber).

Layla's wierd now. I wonder, who wants a 12s rotation cryo applicator/shielder? It'd be someone like Ayato who has a gap in his rotation for supports to spam skills, or maaybe someone like Tighnari/Ningguang who concentrate most of their damage into a small window. Most everyone else would like higher damage @ 15

Edit: actually someone like phys keqing would appreciate a shield support like this, but phys keqing is pretty trash compared to aggravate keqing. Maybe it's a plant for some future unit.

Layla would be better for someone that constantly needs cryo that's more portable, like Eula to help keep her crit resonance up (since the cryo application is usually gone thanks to constant electro from raiden/kuki). Her Shield is also iirc better than Diona, so a healer isn't necessary like how Zhongli teams don't have healers.
