35 pulls into 50/50 tonight and 2 Charlotte's, 2 Collei's and a Rust bow to further augment Yoimiya's to show for it and then hit my threshold of 40K and decided to pause for now. Pretty good early luck on this banner.

And that's why I'm maintaining a certain threshold cause it's go time through the next several patches if all rumours prove true.

I don't think I'd roll on anyone for aesthetics alone. I like Hu Tao a lot as a character, and she's strong, even, but I hate her playstyle so much that I've passed her up twice now. And I'll do it again.

Consider yourself warned: don't be a needy hypercarry with extremely specific teambuilding and gameplay restrictions, Clorinde. No matter how cool you look.
I withdraw this statement. I'll roll on Navia even if she's worse than Dehya.

I'm not sure why animations are a spoiler but Navia is very immersion-breaking. If sunglasses existed in this world there is no way Diluc would not be wearing them. At night.

Every time we get through a new archon chapter, I wonder if "Is This Novel Amazing?" is some sort of metacommentary on how much the developers love piling more layers of Stuff on top of the story.

Got my boy Baizhu tonight! He is as fantastic for Cyno as I'd hoped. Only at 70/70 for tonight but it should be quick enough to bump him up to 80 tomorrow. No regrets.

I've been on break since the first desert area, and based on the characters released since then I've felt no need to log in for daily commission primos. Guess that changes now.

"Oh come on they just released an hours long Archon Quest full of twists and turns and Lore and people are already talking about leaks for next version instead?

<Clicks>

Whenever Navia is not on screen people should be asking"where's Navia" because she is the best.

AQ
Also almost getting Furina to confide in us before dropping her into the trial instead felt unnecessarily mean. So did a lot of the trial. Skirk is weird and I choose to believe her having a Modern Herrscher Costume is a coincidence. And wait did Nuevilette give away an empty Gnosis and that's apparently good enough for the Fatui?

But again holy poo poo Navia is cool.

--edit
Also lol that I guess story wise we've been in jail since last update.

I mean, that’s just my basic assumption on anything to do with Furina.

She’s not the type for a quick, informative chat.

So who are good healers to pair with Furina to take advantage of her healing overcap mechanic?

You want healers that can do party wide big heals (think Barbara or Jean's bursts) rather than single target healers like Shinobu and Bennet. Baizhu works particularly nicely as he doesn't need a burst to do his heals. Charlott and Yaoyao are some other 4* options.

Hardest quest line to clear in the game easy for me. I was stuck on Inazuma commissions for months cause of that thing. They really need to fix the spawning rules for that event where if you've done the first part it only spawns again if you've completed one of the next ones in the commission sequence like how it was with Garcia's Paean. I swear I had that stupid first part of the quest respawn so many times instead though. I probably went through that whole cycle at least 5 times before Storytelling Method actually triggered as a world quest, which was the last thing I needed to do in Inazuma by a lot. It was similar to Anna's whole commission line only to a less severe degree.

It's that Cheshire cat grin as seen in various breakout blonde anime girls in recent popular anime/game content. She flashed it in the Fontaine teaser too. It's becoming like the Dreamworks face that says I'm a confident, but fun loving bundle of energy that's guaranteed to make a scene everywhere I go.

This is starting to shape up like what I referred to as "the gauntlet", which was a stretch near the end of Inazuma where after a short respite where I skipped out on Itto (still don't have him), in rapid succession there was Shenhe, Ganyu first rerun, Yae, Raiden first rerun, Kokomi first rerun, Ayato, Ayaka first rerun, Yelan and Kazuha first rerun, where pretty much everybody was guaranteed to want at least a couple characters in there and it just destroyed most of my primo gem stock leading to me having to skip Nilou the first time around to guarantee Nahida and having to rely on 50/50 and luck to get characters like Alhaitham and Wanderer and after that aside from getting Nilou on her rerun there just wasn't much of anything I super wanted for basically 3/4 of Sumeru since it was either a whole lot of reruns or just new 4 stars that weren't a pain in the rear end to spark. From about 3.5-4.0 was the longest stretch of kind of just "eh" banners the game has ever had easily though, which in retrospect I'm pretty grateful for looking at what's coming up, since I don't have anything else to farm out anymore really besides Fontaine now.

It also just doesn't look like they're going to let up much in the Fontaine arc and this could continue through to 4.6 with characters they know people will want to roll for like the rumored Cloud Retainer, Arlecchino and Clorinde. Chiori is a bit of a mystery, but knowing Mihoyo she'll have probably enough glam and personality to garner some level of following. I'm envisioning caustic boss lady like Madam M from FFVII remake or perhaps Lady Eboshi from Princess Mononoke in terms of temperament and style. Like something like the Soup Nazi only for clothing and fashion and lines equivalent to "you are the only one that understands me traveler." in her inevitable story quest.

You only get the skin if you pull for Chiori and get her to friendship level 10. :)

I was running out of things to do this morning and I didn't want to collect chests so I decided to do the Abyss Floor 8 since I hadn't attempted them yet.

Cleared everything super easily up until Floor 9, Chamber 1 when I just got perma-froze until I had left was a Yelan. Still cleared the floor but lol I have level 1 basic attack on her so I just gave up on floor 3.

anyway, Neuvellette really makes this easy, huh? All the chambers I used him in got cleared in under a minute
