Just got back into the game since cross-save is a thing now along with the Traveler getting Electro. While I'm not a fan of the moneysink it is to get new characters, I'm having fun with my basic team comps with Qiqi as my Healing anchor. Wish there was a mechanism for unplayed characters to level up passively.

Is filling out the character constellations actually worth the trouble? I've gotten dupes for Ningguang and Bennet pretty much in a row, and it feels like a bummer when I could be getting a new character with a fresh kit.

I know it's antithetical to the gatcha model, but I wish (ha!) there was way to earn constellations aside from randomly winning a slot pull, no matter how grindy it would be

For the life of me I cannot beat the challenge fight you need to win to knock out the forcefield protecting the shard in the Into the Mountains quest. My team is 70/50/50/40. Am I underleveled or just bad?

No idea what your team looks like so I dunno. I got frozen so many times doing that one, it's really annoying.

Is this the one with multiple Abyss Mages? That one is a huge pain in the rear end; the way I beat it was breaking their shields and drowning them.

If you want to poke us on the Discord, I'm sure some of us would be happy to jump in and help out.


How does co-op work in regards to story missions? I thought it didn't work at all.

how do I get silly YouTube damage numbers? Like 4 digits on normal hits.

I realize that I crutch hard on teammates doing matchmade domains for upgrade mats and artifacts, soloing world bosses takes too long as I play keepaway/heal while not dealing enough dps. :sigh:

Finally beat that dumb section of Into the Mountains (along with the entire quest). Spent the rest of my resin doing the domain there are only got two Blizzard Strayer pieces so far. Sigh.

edit: took that goon's advice and corraled them at the edge of the water then pushed them off with the traveler's rasengan skill. thanks buddy!

I've seen most people say the Inazuma Crafted sword is better than Black Sword on Ayaka. She really appreciates the free energy as someone who wants to ult spam and the base stats probably work out to about the same DPS as Black Sword with Blizzard Strayer bonus.

I heard that it's just ok until you get it to R5, until then the other options are black longcliff and the black sword or anything that ups crits

How good? I love the look of the crafted sword but I already pre prepped a maxed R2 black sword for Ayaka already.

If you're critting all the time with your normals, getting 60 percent of that back as HP every 5 seconds is pretty good

I had to look this up to see if it's true and jeazus chriiiiist. It doesn't even make sense for the character

If they're going to add a useless passive, at least make it a cosmetic one, like all characters in her party add fireworks to their skill an/or burst when she's in the party.

If her passive was a percent chance to create a firework blast after defeating an enemy to draw aggro, that would be kinda neat

MP opens up when you reach AR 16. If you're above that, you might have accidentally started a story quest that disallows coop. Finish it, and coop should open up again.

Ayaka is my main right now, and I have Qiqi (4pc maiden beloved and R2 Sac Sword) as my emergency "need health now" button and for some cryo particles. Would Diona a better investment in general? I haven't really worked on her so she doesn't have much in the way of artifacts/stats/weapons.

So if I have this right, my last Wish on the Character gave me Ayaka which resets my 5* pity back to 0. So that means I need at most 180 wishes to guarantee Raiden? That comes out to 28800 primos, oof.

Aw man. Why did they make the lvl 30 world ascenion automatic. Now I am hosed.

I ascended my world with the 25 quest after switching to PC because I just couldn't handle mobile controls against the cube, or any boss mob that needs dodging tbh.

Queue me being lvl 29 from retroactive XP and reaching 30 and getting the Next World ascension while gathering Character leveling materials. Now everything is tough as nails and I can't beat the geo prymovishawhatever that I need to kill to ascend Yanfei because that mob is now lvl 50 and I do zero damage.

I take it I can't lower the world level, right?

You can change your world level by 1 (and only 1) once every 24 hours. It's there on your name banner when you open up the menu.

edit: World acensions have quests on the fives but are automatic on the zeroes. Also, your reward potential is less when you lower your world level. just something to keep in mind.

Add me to the list of people enjoying my newly acquired perma freeze team thanks to Ayaka. I tried Oceanid today and despite getting a ton of the drat hawks I was still able to destroy everything with ease. Xingqiu and Barbara are finally going to see ascension beyond 50/50! :dance:

I swap out my Barbara for Ningguang on my freeze team for Oceanid fights, the stupid arena breaks her shield-wall instantly but her basic attacks generate enough shielding that the birds aren't a problem, and then I swap her out for Ayaka/Kaz hypermurdering for everything that isn't a dumb bird.

I ended up using this strat and it worked, thanks! still don't know what to do about that Submerge move the boss does that seems like an OHKO though.
