I know its the most hyped weapon in the game but why did they give homa crit dmg substat instead of crit rate?? I feel weird seeing peoples taos and they're like 55/250.

They knew that at the time there were LOTS of people that cared about damage per screenshot over everything else. There's also a thing somewhere in her kit that gives her 100 crit I think?

Bingo. I consider it an interest thing. Also IMO its not really social media drama at all, its public statements by VAs about a very real incident. Even the ADR commented on it as well and said they are working on a solution. Nobody is obligated to read any or all of it or not either.

Lol dropping the Nahida rock

So, last night's Hu Tao talk got me speedrunning Deepwood Memories / Gilded Dreams a bunch for tests today.

Overall takeaways: My Hu Tao could probably be built better.
Most differences, at least at the domain level, are pretty marginal.
I should take better notes.

Hu Tao / Xingqui / Mona / Zhongli (closest I can get to Hu Tao Standard): about 0:55-1:00
Hu Tao / Xingqui / Yanfei / Venti (needs a name): about 1:00 to 1:05
Hu Tao / Xingqui / Xinyan / Venti (The Blaze Lilies Experience): 0:55-1:00
Yanfei / Xingqui / Bennett / Fischl or Venti the times were basically the same (Yanslay): 0:55-1:00
Yanfei / Xingqui / Bennett / Sucrose (Yanslay-S): 0:40-1:10, depending on if Sucrose's burst is up at the start and HOW MUCH OF A DICK THE ENEMIES ARE BEING FOR THIS ONE WHY AM I FROZEN
Sucrose / Fischl / Yaoyao / Mona (Sucrose Hyperbloom, my strongest team) 0:36-0:50
Nahida/Xingqui/Zhongli/Raiden (Nahida Hyperbloom) 0:40-0:55.

Actually given that I still haven't put together a proper EM build for Raiden and Sucrose and Fischl are both level 90 with highly farmed artifacts, that Nahida Hyperbloom coming so close is a bit crazy.

So I was building a hyperbloom team out of Raiden/DendroTraveller/Yelan/Barbara. But I did pick up Yaoyao from the Lantern Rite. Would she slot in here as a replacement? Or would she not work for this team?

Yaoyao's best role is in aggravate, where you don't need tons of dendro app, or as a secondary dendro in any other team. Her application is pretty mediocre so she's not a replacement for DMC, especially not in hyperbloom teams.

she is an upgrade from barb whose hydro application is both poor and low-uptime. assuming you wanna use yelan as the driver for dps.
but if you're doing onfield barbara hydro slaps maybe it's a downgrade

Yeah I know he's effective. I think I have him as a 7 on my ranks thingy. I just don't like dealing with him is all. He's like DMC where he has a role he functions in, but I can't wait for someone better to come along so I can replace him.

Is Hu Tao any good or does she just require a lot of investments
Yes and yes. Hu Tao needs all 3 talents leveled so she is more of a resin investment to build. Hu Tao's artifact farming isn't so bad. You don't need 4-piece Crimson Witch. Shimenawa and Gilded Dreams sets are also viable alternatives. Personally I have absurdly good CW pieces but I still run 2-piece CW / 2-piece millelith on Hu Tao because she loses ~1% vape dmg and gains significant mono-pyro dmg for general use.

For the record, Hu Tao and Yelan are both as overpowered as people hype them up to be. Yelan moreso by virtue of being a support that can work with any team. Hu Tao is more niche but as a main DPS she is the best in her class without even bothering to do fancy stuff like move-cancels or HP management. Hu Tao's damage is just that good. :toot:



Ytlaya posted:

Edit: BTW regarding Kale's Ganyu post from a few pages back, other people correctly pointed various things out, but by far most obviously wrong thing (and the main explanation for the low numbers) was the extremely low CDMG. Like, that's flat-out "not even attempting to be a DPS" low levels of CDMG to have on a character. I think my Kokomi has about that much. Stuff like the weapon being level 80 or talent being 8 is completely irrelevant compared to that.

You should have at least around 150%, and ideally more due to Cryo resonance giving some CRIT% (so you can spare more stats towards CDMG instead of CRIT%). Getting a reasonable CDMG would make your damage dramatically higher.
(Also my Hu Tao doesn't meet this guys requirements for a passable build. 72% crit rate / 141% crit dmg :laugh:)

Oh, that's different. Hu Tao wants ordinary 1:2 crit ratio. ~70/140 is very solid without 5 star weapons. On the other hand, blizzard strayer cryo units get 35 or 55 extra crit depending of if the enemy is freezable, so they can afford to stack crit damage (and attack) as high as possible.

The Hu Taos you see with like 40/200 crit ratios are the weirdos.

Ganyu can afford to stack crit dmg higher because she gets so much crit rate from other sources

Homa combined with her Ascension Stat being CDmg makes Hu Tao's crit ratio all sorts of wonky and unfixable. I think mine is at something like 67/220 and I prioritised CRate on every one of her artifacts.

Fortunately I happened to have exactly one crit damage blizzard strayer circlet lying around which I gave to and am building on her. It doesnt have attack% but some energy recharge HP% and elemental Mastery so its passable as my sole option to keep her on 4-set.

As a thoroughly mediocre non-spiral abyss attempter, I really like Qiqi. If I have a friendship team who is struggling, or just have a utility space in a team I'm using for grinding something I'll often chuck in Qiqi (or Zhongli) because her healing is nuts to the point where you have to be pretty unlucky (or gently caress up badly) to actually die, and with the clam set shes also putting out a nice amount of off-field damage.

Weird how, it is white damage so it was either Pure or Physical and Pure is really only seen in Event stuff since nothing works for or against it.

Now when I see a chest or enemies near wood planks in the desert I consider kiting the enemies away or playing the new gotcha, where your character gets shorter or the camera freaks out but it's usually both.

How has your luck been? I'm doing better then the banner 50/50 and getting real lucky.

constantly paranoid that poo poo'll fall through those cracks and i'll have to do some insane maneuvering to get at that headband or whatever. Don't know why they didn't put an invisible floor very slightly below the deck so your tiny characters can't fall through the drat gaps.

I got plenty of perfect parries in duel #2 and seemingly none in #3 so I'm going with animation issues and trying to shoehorn in gameplay elements that aren't suited for it.
