Jing Yuan seems like he is going to be real good. Wondering if I can try to get him and then save up again for Kafka. My brain says no, but my heart says yes.

You'd have two patches. Genshin patches tend to give out about 70 rolls if you mine them for everything and given how similar everything here is it'll probably be the same here. Combine that with 1.0 stuff you haven't done yet/monthly refreshes of the tickets in the exchange shop/etc, that should be enough even F2P.

Just how many mistakes have you suffered on the way here?

An uncountable number, to be sure.
Do we expect Jing Yuan to come with any kind of event or story continuation, or will it be 3 more weeks of nothing?

There should be that boulder town event this patch but my impression is that any story continuation would be in 1.1.

All info points at him being really good but a lot of the erudition LCs are absolute trash so people are thinking picking up his LC is a massive qol.

if you want a good lc for him getting the battle pass would probably be better than spending rolls on his lc banner

On a divergent note, the Genshin talk made me think "maybe I'll go back after however long it's been and see if my old account is still there, and how much more there might be to do now. Also, my newer phone will probably play it better."

And I see a TWENTY-TWO GIGABYTE DOWNLOAD begin.

Shhh... don't wake up the sleeping lion :3:

Personally speaking I wouldn't pull for LCs that only say "have bigger numbers" that you can already get from relics, since the game already gives you some free LC options, 4* LCs can be good enough, and you can save up to buy a 5* LC eventually if you really want. I'd only consider pulling for LCs that provide some sort of unique advantage that can't be replicated by gear numbers like a busted SP generation or something.

There is nothing wrong with a freely-available/maxable universal DMG boost + conditional atk% boost that aligns with Erudition's normal gameplan.

The system seems to give them out in ascending order, so it means they first logged in within about 5 nanoseconds of the servers going live. There's probably significantly less than 99,999 of them; I assume it skips more IDs than it uses, so any old rando can't figure out exactly how many players have registered just by making an account.

drat, Hook is cold. (Hook character quest) I can't imagine selling my childhood teddy bear to have his eyes ripped out now as a grown man, much less when I was still a child. Feel bad for that teddy.

Ah, I imagined that the IDs would always have the same number of digits, that's interesting.

I mean, technically they do. Right now, on the Americas server at least, they're all 9 digits: the first digit is for the region, then one or more zeroes, then the interesting part. When I say "5 digits", I mean "6000xxxxx".

Really didn't expect to be able to finish this off since Tingyun caught real bad RNG in the face and died at the very beginning of phase2 before I could slam either one of the heal buttons. I do hope the game doesn't end up being mandatory-turtle-meta forever and we're just having problems now because we're all underleveled and undergeared for the content we're trying to do.

I'm really not sure what to put on Jing Yuan. My seriousness is only superimpose 2 and the cone on the glitter shop has 1,000 attack at 70 vs 727 for Seriousness. Himeko is using a superimpose 4 Make the World Clamour which gives 29 energy and +56% ultimate damage. I'm not sure what kind of damage JY's follow-up is.

Talent damage, presumably. And I don't think there's anything in the game that specifically affects that, so I guess it's just follow-up damage.

Someone pointed this out online, I had to check in game and it's real all right



Svarog has this also to say in Clara's lore sheet: "Clara has successfully made contact with an individual of similar age in Boulder Town. The individual is named Hook,"

I suppose Svarog's immense age could lump the two together, but he's also known to be a very specific calculator... so "similar" to me reads as "maybe a year or two apart"

uhm

Does the wearer have to defeat the enemy themself to get the boost, or does it count stuff killed by other party members/path resonance?

i think the latter, since there's cones/talents with similar effects that specify 'when this specific character kills an enemy'

You're probably right, but the wonky wording of various SU blessings gives me zero trust that they're actually consistent about language

In this specific case, at least, it's definitely only the wearer.

They should. In a properly secure system you shouldn't be able to guess a valid ID just from knowing your own, and sequential IDs breaks that. Not the end of the world if everything's secure, but it means if someone finds a way in they can quickly write a script to hit everyone without getting misses. For example Youtube has unlisted private videos and if they didn't have big random video IDs people without the link could view them easily.

It's a really easy thing to implement if you put it into standard practices, and Mihoyo's so big a target I'm surprised they didn't.

Your UID has nothing to do with your actual login information, so they probably see it as just a tool for adding people to your friends list, and don't consider it sensitive in any way. Can't imagine they'd show it to everyone who gets offered your character as a support and blast it out in every video you record and every screenshot you take, otherwise.

iirc Welt was 8 back in 1955. Anyway he is at least ~80 years old in SR.

Pom-pom's quests secretly give you 8000 credit points so it's better to talk to them more often. I heard they refresh per 12 hours or so.
