I was actually curious enough to look up what the longest character drought is for each element:
I hadn't realized it's been that long since the last new Pyro. Geo will most likely break that record if it doesn't get anything by 3.6, though.

Scaramouche's kit looks cool but I can not bring myself to roll on him because he's such a lame-rear end weenie. What a shame.

 Without knowing anything about Scaramouches kit, the new anemo set looks like garbage compared to VV. But this new Paradise Lost set might be powercreeping gilded dreams already, at least for hydro/electro/pyro supports on dendro teams. I sure hate grinding artifact domains where one of the sets is worthless.

There is a difference in damage at the top end but if you dont pull for wanderer you may as well stick to farming gilded since the other set is also useful.

How does the bloom artifact work? Like does it need to go on the dendro character, the hydro/electro character or does it not matter?

Looking at the wording, you'd want it to be on whoever is your trigger for the reaction. So for hyperbloom, that'd be your electro. For bloom, that's harder and depends on your team.

Faruzan is yet another character that sounds pretty different personality wise between English and Japanese in that she seems to have more of an edge to her in English. The other ones it's pretty noticeable off the top of my head are Eula and Yelan. Eula and Yelan kind of just sound more devil may care in their JP voice overs while in English Eula noticeable has that "Harumph!  " Tsundere Ojou intonation to most of her lines and Yelan is straight up Femme Fatale 101. Faruzan sounds stubborn and sassy in English, but just kind of like a spaz in Japanese. I guess there's Ningguang that I've heard too, but that's more her English VA sounding like she doesn't even remotely understand the character she's playing, and mumbling, mispronouncing and being monotone in most of her lines while Japanese it's sultry exotic bourgeois woman 101. If anyone could ever use an English recast or maybe even rerecording it'd probably be her.

I don't know what kind of teams people have dreamed up for him so far, but I assume Bennett is involved. Unless his skill makes him fly up out of range of Bennett's buff. That would be pretty hilarious.

I'm wondering whether the event sword is better for Hyperbloom Kuki than Iron Sting. Yeah, both the effects are garbage for that setup, but I'm just curious which is slightly less crap there. I say, planning to pull Raiden and possibly obsolete my Kuki anyway.

Last night just randomly got a commission in Mondstadt where the sickly girl Anna becomes an adventurer and changes her outfit to the adventurer uniform and I got an achievement for it. I swear I've seen this NPC dozens of times in commissions over the last couple years and it's always just been finding her on top of the Barbatos statue for her brother so it kind of came as a surprise to me.

Both anemo carries so far dont really care about swirl as much as their raw damage. The stupid thing is that this set doesnt even benefit Xiao since he has one tailored for him already (vermillion hereafter)

A better question for that sword is: who needs an umbrella? Maybe qiqi, there's no way she'd remember to bring one.Kale posted:Last night just randomly got a commission in Mondstadt where the sickly girl Anna becomes an adventurer and changes her outfit to the adventurer uniform and I got an achievement for it.

Weird, I'm pretty sure you're meant to go through the whole quest chain for that, unless she's put on the uniform when she's still a trainee adventurer? Been a while since I've been in mondstadt to have a chance to actually finish off her training quest. Sanctum posted:

The best part about that chain is that one of your commissions is to help her with her commission and she starts wondering why she's getting the same one over and over again. If you do it enough times though, Fischl and Bennet show up too.

MNSNTZR posted:sad that my favorite pet theory about anemo vision wielders being two-faced/living double lives got broken with the inazuma 4*s, especially since hoyo brought it back for bowlcut here Okay, so, unless Jean's changed a lot since she got hers my "anemo users are free spirits, except for Jean, Venti gave her a vision because she does his job" theory got shot down when it was revealed that Archons don't give out visions, but I have got to know where you got that one. I cannot think of any two-faced or double-life anemo wielder besides Venti. Actually isn't that really close to cryo's internal contradiction thing? Then again I suppose if "Sucrose loving loves her job and frequently gets carried away about it" counts as free-spirited that brings it really loving close to pyro's obvious passion thing. Actually what are everyone's favorite theories for what comes with what element, with possible exceptions that gently caress it up? I've got Pyro: Passion Anemo: Free spirited, but Jean and maybe Xiao gently caress with that Cryo: Internal contradiction; like Kaeya'a split loyalties or Rosaria being an irreligious nun Hydro: Devotion to an ideal, but does Yelan have that? Geo: Diligence, but maybe Itto shoots that down? Dendro: gently caress if I know Electro: Okay so even without Archons giving out visions as an explanation for why, the common thread here really seems to be, basically, "will not make great use of a Vision." Lisa got hers and abandoned her studies to become a librarian. Beidou was already a god slayer. Fischl is either somewhat delusional or the mortal incarnation of a trans-dimensional electro goddess already, and either way she's using her power to. . . do recon for the local adventurer's guild. Shinobu uses hers to babysit a gang of delinquents. Razor uses his to survive. Keqing seriously considered destroying hers. Hell, even Raiden seems to have given up her Gnosis a while back with no major drop in power, like she didn't need it. But then I don't see how this fits Kujou Sara, and if Raiden doesn't give them out then that sorta gets rid of the "they're a high ranking servant of the Archon and got their Vision for that " explanation the same as for Jean.

Bananasaurus Rex posted:Xiao teams usually run a second anemo for vv shred and energy generation. I'm guessing scara teams will be similar but idk Xiao really doesn't care about VV shred, it doesn't affect anemo or geo damage at all and his most common non-anemo non-geo teammate is bennett who barely does personal damage. Sure you might as well leave VV on the jean/sayu whatever since you are just bringing them to battery Xiao, there isn't really any other supportive artifact set that will make a big difference, plus you probably already have it on them since it's BiS in every non-xiao/non-scara team you'd use them in. But that doesn't mean it actually makes a difference. Scaramouche can actually use stuff like xingqiu/yelan/fischl/beidou though so he might see more use for it. Mostly you'll bring it on faruzan if you can though I bet.

Forums ate my post!!! Shortened retyping: Umbrela: Free r5 iron sting. Useful for aggravate/spread/vape/melt dps units. Statstick on full EM builders like kazuha and hyper-kuki. Scara: Green physical selfish main dps. Use his new set, don't pull for him if you want an "anemo unit." Main benefit over yellow physical units like Itto or white physical units like Eula are his elemental absorption self-buffs, which make mediocre supports like Thoma and Layla much stronger. Running him with VV is like running Petra Itto or Melt support Ayaka: viable, but is this really what you're here for?

If my last 3 5☆s were Keqing, Nilou, Albedo (oldest first), I should be on the 50/50, right? That seems safe for my fruitless attempts to get the strange lady and not a whinger or noelle with horns, probably.

Captain France posted:Anemo: Free spirited, but Jean and maybe Xiao gently caress with that My guess is it's more "values freedom" which includes free-spirited people, but also people willing to sacrifice their own freedom for the sake of others. Hence Jean and Xiao who both do what they do so that the people they protect can live freely. quote:Electro: Okay so even without Archons giving out visions as an explanation for why, the common thread here really seems to be, basically, "will not make great use of a Vision."

Hell, even Raiden seems to have given up her Gnosis a while back with no major drop in power, like she didn't need it. This one I'm much, much more uncertain on. My best guess is "have their own vision for how the world should be, which they're willing to fight the rest of the world for." That would mesh with the whole 'dream of eternity' god-complex thing the ascension material blurb has going for it, and works for people like Fischl and Kuki and Dori, who are all basically "I wanna live my life this way, gently caress my family/the world" and sort of for Razor with his whole Lupical thing though that's muuuch more of a stretch. I admit though that doesn't really cover Lisa at all so it's probably wrong.
