Got really lucky, already had Collei and Beidou at C6 but managed to get Furina to C2 and Charlotte to C6 along with a surprise Mika (didn't have him at all) for just 231 rolls. Won every 50/50 on the way. Don't normally go for constellations but Furina's just too drat fun and I want an excuse to play her in pretty much every team conceivable. All in all, for the one and only time I've ever been as extravagant as to pull for constellations it's gone really well. I've still got around 240 wishes in stock too so I should be good to get the rest of the Fontaine 5* as they come out since I have a lot of unclaimed primos in stuff I haven't done in the open world yet. Really excited to see just how much C2 Furina shreds. Tree Reformat posted:I have absolutely no idea what weapon Furina wants that isn't her signature or Festering Desire (which I do not have). Do I just fall back on good ol' Sac Sword or something? The pipe you can get for fishing in Fontaine is her next best f2p option and is pretty much Festering Desire but a bit worse as far as Furina's concerned. Favonius is also a viable option in teams where her ER requirements are unreasonably high (IE 200%+) RareAcumen posted:So, once again I wasn't paying attention: Furina =Marechausse Hunter? Charlotte= Blizzard Strayer or Maiden Beloved? Not sure about Charlotte yet, but Furina definitely wants Golden Troupe. Marechausse doesn't trigger if you're not on field and pretty much all of her damage comes from her skill. It's a no-brainer.

Furina and 2 Colletes in 20 wishes. No photo journalist but good enough to stop there I think. Blowing everything on Navia when she comes out.

Huh, Beidou's new demo is a legit Taser team. That's pretty nifty. Makes her look way better than Baizhu's jank-rear end Baizhu/Lisa/Xingqiu/No-4th Hyperbloom(???) setup, or even the weird National variant they gave Furina.

That was a looong archon quest. It should have been 3. I also wonder how many people furina’s pets are gonna kill in multiplayer. They still drain hp?

Genshin keeping their tradition of having the worst skill descriptions ever by continually making them more and more obfuscated. Furina's elemental skill isn't even that complicated but holy poo poo they sure make it sound confusing with    What does Furina's burst do? I still haven't figured that part out. She gets bonus meter when party members gain/lose HP% and the meter does hydro damage at the end of her burst duration? So the timing you can't control and she's just as likely to do pop her damage on nothing because there are no enemies around. Does her burst do anything actually useful?

the burst does damage at the start and continuously increases a stacking buff of all of your team's damage and incoming healing as they gain and lose HP during the burst the indicator is just there to let you know when you've reached certain milestones in the amount of stacks obtained

Her buff is flat out crazy. 50% dmg bonus to your entire team for 18 seconds if you plan around it. It requires a lot of ER if she's solo hydro though. If I'm understanding her A4 I think she wants HP cup over hydro cup. In general her gameplay is basically non-existent even by off field support standards but she's such a build around that I'm enjoying regardless.

Genshin made the same mistake with Kazuha's A4 saying he buffs the party with 0.04% of Kazuha's total EM when it's actually 4% (e.g. 4% of 1000 EM Kazuha = +40% elemental dmg bonus)

% buffs like that are inexplicably worded as if the damage you're doing counts as '1.' They're incredibly bad at wording things but at least it's consistent. So the inexplicable math is Damage = 1 Fanfare max = 300 Conversion at talent level 10 = 0.25% of Fanfare 0.25 of 300 = 0.75 Damage = 1 + 0.75??????? 75% damage increase??? But it's pretty hard to max out her stacks, so the average is closer to 50%.

Sanctum posted:Where do you get that number? Is the burst damage buff 100x what the in-game skill description says the buff is? The description says "Fanfare to DMG Increase Conversion Ratio (%)" I assume it's a multiplier and not a % because the translators are still confused about what percentages are. Kazuha's A4 currently reads as follows: quote:Upon triggering a Swirl reaction, Kaedehara Kazuha will grant all party members a 0.04% Elemental DMG Bonus to the element absorbed by Swirl for every point of Elemental Mastery he has for 8s. Bonuses for different elements obtained through this method can co-exist. No Wave fucked around with this message at 15:40 on Nov 8, 2023 |

This doesn't speak well of me, but the new boss being called a tulpa makes me think of those weirdos who kept trying to manifest My Little Pony characters with the power of their minds. I know it's a legit concept in Buddhism, but that's how I first of heard of it.

At first, I had a lot of trouble keeping track of which stance Furina was in when she didn't have her pets out, but after looking at it for a minute, I noticed it changes her skill icon Now, hours later, I've noticed that it also dramatically changes the colours on her outfit and her hairstyle. I'm dumb.

Does anyone know how to unlock the map for east Fontaine (where Furina’s collectibles are)? I got the statue on the south side, but I don’t see a statue to discover for the middle and north of east Fontaine, and that is the area for Furina mats. (Edit: nvm I am an idiot. There’s an “available” bubble covering up the statue on the map if anyone else has the same issue) Also I am curious if it’s just me but are all of these devices in Fontaine exploration annoying to anyone else? Every minute it’s some new tutorial pop up about some map mechanic - like just let me chill and explore please. I miss just being able to walk around without all of this nonsense complicating things for no reason. It’s weird that they’re afraid to increase difficulty or give other endgame combat modes but they will absolutely litter the new map with busywork when they’re apparently concerned about stressing out players. Maybe people like it though, and I’m the outlier.

Puzzle mechanics that are inherent to the map are better than elemental requirements that you have to switch your team around for or gadgets like Sorush.

Iunno why Fontaine exploration would be your breaking point. The gimmicks are all very self-explanatory and easy compared to how convoluted Sumeru or Inazuma stuff got. Fontaine's way easier and way more fun to explore.

I did see all the new stuff and generally try to avoid it, mostly so I could get tutorials when I'm actually going to engage with those puzzles. The only one that annoyed me was the pillar stuff just because it was the single thing I accidentally triggered tutorial for without getting hands-on. Not a huge fan of the bubble/octopus push puzzles in terms of the mechanic but they aren't like, difficult. Killing corrupted stuff with the octopus beam does feel really satisfying though.

I'm generally a fan of exploring the recent areas, and the new zone I dabbled in a bit last night is no exception. But I do think the tutorials this time were a bit much. In a half hour of running around, it wouldn't surprise me if I got 15 tutorials. And maybe two of them actually required some explanation. The mechanics were all fine, but less pop up explanations would be nice. More Breath of the Wild, less Kingdom Hearts 3, please.

Not having an actual numerical stack counter or icon for Fanfare is incredibly irritating. More irritating than the stuff it puts on the screen, actually, that poo poo's fine just let me have a buff icon with a number on it this isn't hard.

They really dislike providing useful information like that in the UI for some reason (shield HP counter where?). I blame phones, in that a good chunk of screen elements are gonna be covered by hands/fingers because phones/touchscreens as an action gaming platform are garbage. Considering running Charlotte with 2pc ESF and 2pc ATK% instead of a 4pc set due to her scaling and only healing via burst until C6, so she wants to spam it as often as possible.

It would be so trivially easy to add buff icons or meters that I feel like it must be an intentional design decision for that kind of information to be obfuscated. Like how there's no damage log.

There are generally tells for mechanics, like eula and neuville's cloaks lighting up when they're fully stacked etc. For Furina's burst the little dudes popping up at the bottom seem to be signalling something about stack count, although I'm not sure exactly which thresholds they do it at.

It's weird that they seem simultaneously terrified of giving the players information like that but also make the skill descriptions so insanely overwrought and confusing. LIke if the skill description was 'Furina increases the team's damage when their health goes up or down!' id get it but,

In the course of my 35 or some odd pulls so far I've gotten 2 Beidous (now C6!) and C1 Charlotte, not bad so far. We'll see what else I get by the time Baizhu shows up. Charlotte seems handy? Pretty good off-field cryo application which is something we've sort of lacked for awhile (I guess Layla also has good off-field Cryo? I don't own her so idk).

I see they introduced a Goth colored Melusine. 60 primo from another 10 roll, but wanted a break. God I am bouncing hard off of Honkai SR though, it just dropped on PS5, and I can feel how far behind I am. I wonder if that's how it would feel to run face first into this game.
