I named him Galileo because it was always going to be either that or Fandango and the coin came up tails.

The quest at least worked well enough to get me to give him an actual name so I went with Icarus.

We gotta see what sort of extra benefits Baiz is going to have. I can see myself running him in aggravate teams to have double dendro double electro but I dont know if I can fit him in spread teams since whoever the dendro carry is and nahida is already such a powerful combination damage wise. e- With all that we've waited Im more interested in the new geo catgirl. Although if shes a fake catgirl I'm going to dock points against her. Cao Ni Ma fucked around with this message at 15:52 on Feb 13, 2023 |

If I’m trying to build a Hu Tao team (with XQ), which is the better option to invest in: 1) Melt with Diona and either Rosaria/Kaeya 2) 2x Hydro with Sucrose and Mona (could go Thoma instead of Sucrose but it’d be doubling my levelling expenses plus I’d need to farm new artifacts for Hu Tao since she’s on Gilded Dreams atm) Mona/Rosaria/Kaeya are all equally underlevelled/geared

I cant believe this stupid rear end battle pass is going to keep giving me inazuma talent mats for at least four more patches. I am literally leveling thoma talents to 9. Aggravating.

As a day one player I have 4 built meta teams (without character overlap!) so now all I want to spend my resin on is dumb ideas like trying to make a Noelle Burgeon team. I don’t even care that Dehya looks like she’ll be bad, any off field reaction enablers are great for dumb idea teams.

Unless something changes her application is really bad and you're better off using Thoma for Burgeon.

Using scara in the overworld has really grown on me. The first few weeks I was getting used to controlling it and where exactly to use it - it felt only a little better than yelan. Now it's just crazy, it's like a totally different game with him in the party. The fact I cant make him feel good for me in abyss doesnt even bother me.

This is actually a potential leak regarding Honkai Star Rail now but according to one channel that has provided an image albeit impossible to verify The 3rd planet you visit in the game will be a Japan themed one and be ruled by a character named Ruan Mei and a Yae Sakura like character will be involved as well. The Ruan Mei image doesn't really look like Mei/Ei very much though and lacks the purple hair and also her eyes are closed as well. Also there's claims that there's a character yet to be seen in Space China that the files identify as "Hu Phoenix: The Marshal Above The 6 Generals" Can't say I'm terribly surprised. It feels like Mihoyo is using something akin to Osamu Tezuka's Star System with their games since arguably their greatest asset are their character brand IPs and strong attachments to them particularly in China.

The fact I cant make him feel good for me in abyss doesnt even bother me. you arguably need too much investment in scara to make him feel good in abyss. c3/c6 scarazan+bennett and a shielder makes do for me, but why do that when hyperbloom performs just as well, if not slightly better, with way less investment? scarazan+bennett is extremely good for speedrunning bosses though. single-tapping sumeru bosses with his burst feels pretty drat good

This game is fun and I'm glad it exists.  Spend a few hours yesterday finally farming The Catch for Xiangling. People were very nice about me pillaging their fish.

HuTao/XQ/Sucrose/Thoma is good team because you can swirl pyro with Sucrose’s VV before going to town with Hu Tao. Thoma also provides some crumby version of shielding as well.

So, Genius Invokation. Not much discussion about this recently. My main issues with the implementation are: a.) Unlocking new character cards is too easy and boring. Characters should have been unlocked to invite via open world challenges. The current system is just checking off boxes in a row and open world challenges become pointless. Tying acquisition to open wprld more would be so interesting, this was a huge part of what made challenging NPCs in gwent fun. b.) The game's expansion plan seems to be new character cards but character cards are less interesting than deck cards. c.) No deck import function. I get that you dont want people to netdeck but importing popular lists for different characters would make grinding with them way more interesting. Unfortunately interest in the mode has dropped so much that its hard to find good deck lists. I'd love a list with jadeplume terrorshroom (for example) that has some thought put into it but I'm not willing to do it myself. No Wave fucked around with this message at 21:26 on Feb 13, 2023 |

Why wouldn't you want people to netdeck? It's not even a PvP mode, the AI's feelings aren't going to be hurt because you beat its scrub-tier homebrew.

You can also match randomly with internet people. There's no ranking, so there's no telling what skill level you're playing against. In higher skill play, the game heavily favors whoever goes first, simply because there aren't really ways to strip your opponent of their artifacts/equipment/support cards, or deal damage to them on their turn, unlike most TCGs. This also makes matches go much faster.

I suck at card games and I skipped Gwent in Witcher 3. I still have the next quest in the GI thing dangling like a tell tale heart. What’s the best way to get the pole arm billets if you already bought them? I loving used all the story and 3-3 Abyss ones on lovely pole arms I can’t use and I finally decided to go back and do Dragonspine after 700 hours and whoops.

Billets are actually the most limited resource in the game in that they are all RNG from bosses, given as main game exploration/quest rewards, or given away during the summer island event, which we've had twice so far.

Do weekly bosses and pray that they drop? You can also convert the one you get from the sumeru tree at level 24. DeadFatDuckFat fucked around with this message at 21:43 on Feb 13, 2023 |

Fight weekly bosses, look for Inazuma and Sumeru Sigils to turn in for them as rewards. You said you went back and did Dragonspine so I assume you've got all of those billets from the tree now.

So I had a very dumb realization recently that I probably should have known for a very very very very long time - There are no tiers of world boss materials. I was helping my wife farm the Oceanid while she is world level 3. So her bosses are all 30+. I then went back to my own world that was WL7 because I thought "I need to ascend Barbara and I need a bunch of high level boss drops from Oceanid." I'm a dumbass and didn't realize that the bosses all drop their item at level 30 and and you can just farm the low level version for all the drops you need.

you get more drops from the higher level versions though the level 36 oceanid drops an average of 1.6 cleansing hearts level 91 one drops 2.5 also (importantly) it drops more of the gems, and (less importantly) more 5* gladiator artifacts too

RPATDO_LAMD posted:you get more drops from the higher level versions though The lower level ones die faster. And I loving hate the Oceanid.  Looking at WL3, it looks like it drops at a 1.87 rate. Which, when it is much easier to kill, makes it far more appealing. If I need 40 Cleansing Hearts, for example, I would rather run it at a low level with my wife 22 times vs at high level solo 16 times.

the big limiter is resin which you are gated by realtime for doing the low level one will take 6 days worth of resin whereas the high level one would take only 4 but 2 extra days is not so dramatic of a difference so it's fine if you're having more fun

RPATDO_LAMD posted:the big limiter is resin which you are gated by realtime for Yeah. I've had so many days when I never touch my resin that I'm not too concerned. Also, last I checked, I have 95 fragile resin. Honestly, I've been looking for a good excuse to burn through some of it. And while I like my core team, they're not good at farming bosses, so I'm working on building up my other teams so that I can more easily take down bosses at WL7 (and soon WL8). Majority of world bosses, I just solo them with Ganyu - which tends to be reliable but fairly slow and boring. (Ask me about killing Thunder Manifestation about 20 times in a row).
