I think this event is pretty cute. I like the character writing quite a bit. It's not quite on the level of the last Lantern Rite, but it's a step up from any of the Inazuma events.

For me, Collei's outfit is the one that doesn't really work for the character. She's introduced to us as a sickly character with a serious illness that is covering her body with scales, yet she has an outfit that shows off most of her back and thighs. It isn't like she's open about having Eleazar, either; she hides it from the Traveler until Paimon touches her and she freaks out about it, so I don't think her design matches her backstory. She would probably cover herself up more, but since this is Genshin, her design's gotta show off at least a little skin.

It's a minor nitpick, though. I like her design otherwise; I think it's pretty cute, and up until last week she's been my only Dendro character besides DMC until I finally pulled Tighnari (:argh:) and Yaoyao, so I use her a lot.

I just assumed the scales / scars / hardened flesh were on the bits of Collei covered by cloth (arms, parts of legs, belly?) and she exposes the skin she does because of living in a (I presume hot) jungle.

However thinking about it now I really wonder why she's wearing what looks like a big woolly scarf of all things in that humidity.

green amber is a perfectly valid unit if you need dendro and haven't pulled the better ones. I think they also gave you at least 3 copies of her if you've been playing since 3.0

I use her as the second dendro for resonance in a nilou / nahida / kokomi golden bloom team. The other 3 are pretty integral but you could sub out Collei for any other unit if you wanted. YaoYao or potentially the upcoming Kaveh also seem like decent resonance fodder.

With a sac bow and a full constellation, Collei can put out a passive melee dendro aura pretty reliably, especially if you aim at something that's already elementally reactive.

I mean, Collei is one of the few characters whose age we can make any kind of decent guess at.
In the one, maybe two years since the manga, she's gone from a full head shorter than Amber to about the same height. Collei might have a crush, but Amber definitely thinks of herself as more of a big sister--especially in the manga. Also holy poo poo Collei was such an edgelord back then.

I mean the age thing also makes shipping her with Sucrose weird, mind you. And come to think of it while it's usually glossed over for this sort of thing, Sucrose's popular ship before this event definitely made a lot of people (not me) ship her with Collei is Albedo, and whooooo boy there's also a big age difference there. Hundreds of years, even.

Shock, the catgirl was real, but also fake :eyepop:

If she gets standard-ed hopefully they aim for a Jean level of power. If she doesn't get standard-ed hopefully she's fun to play :)

Skill infusion, or maybe dash infusion. Hopefully she's not just a shielder, cause she's got, uh, slightly tough competiton in that area.

Those are definitely just shoes.

If she's going to standard as a 5* geo sword-using shielder then I feel like she'll do fine as long as they don't balance her below her 4* competition in other elements.

We knew this for a while now since one of the sketches people came up with was with a fake tail and cat ears.

And like I said back then, fake cat girl means no pulls. Specially since its another shielder. Guess more hoarding for kazuha rerun

Wait apparently her ears are fake but shes still a catgirl unless she specifically stands like a cat with her feat. would be pretty uncomfortable for a normal person
