UltraRed posted:Thinking of running who is the best carry out of Beidou/Childe/Xianling ? Thinking of swapping out my MC carry so I don't lose out on 1/4 of that character experience. I like having a claymore user in the party and am thinking of swapping out Noelle Beidou as a "carry" is sort of bad if you are thinking of using her normal attack. Based on personal testing, her autoattacks are the worst out of all of the claymore users: among them, her autoattacks deal least among of damage damage to geo hypostatis's pillars and the mining ores. Nonetheless, her Q and E are pretty good if you have a team for a electro burst user. With the right team setup and many electro orbs, her ult is always ready when the CD timer goes to 0, but with the CDs of Q&E, using her autoattacks would not make her a carry per se. As a 5 star, Childe is your best bet since his base stats will be higher than either of the 4*; nonetheless, his attacks are bit nuance for a Genshin Impact character, and if anything is alive after his combos, his cooldowns are long so your team's overall DPS overall might be limited. Also there are no hydro bonus dmg artifact sets. Xianling is probably the easiest to maximize her damage out of all of the characters you listed as a physical damage carry: for Beidou, you need to know the timing of enemy attacks to maximize her counter, and Childe is a can of decisions. With Xianliang as a carry, she autoattacks with the crescent pike with a jump cancel animation at the end along with any of her abilities that are off cooldown. I recommend a superconduct team to maximize her physical damage. The limitation is that she is neither electric and ice, so using a superconduct team may less than an ideal team of either a Ice or Electro carry that can do massive physical damage.

Geomancing posted:If you're not interested in squeezing every last fraction of a percentage of damage out of a team composition, or going for that fraction of a second quicker completion time in the Spiral Abyss, do you have to worry about any of this stuff? I'm basically just playing for exploration, story, sidequests, that kind of thing. No, as long as you and your artifacts are properly leveled, no. And as WL goes up, things might hurt a lot, but then you have food and iframes.

UltraRed posted:I find the electric element to be kinda the most disappointing. I loved Lisa's charcter design but other than water slimes, she just isn't that effective. I thought Beidou would be an improvement, but I'm not sure if I'm using her correctly That's why you combine with other elements to create other effects like overload of superconduct.

Okay, noticing some weird buggy things since the update: 1. Dvalin's neck is harder to climb. Sometimes I just clip through. I almost lost to this easy boss because I could not hit his weakpoint, and his boss battle has a soft time limit. 2. Statue only auto healing to me full HP minus 1.

Squiddycat posted:Finally got around to the 1.1 story and lol the boss is brutal Fortunately, this boss is much more like a dark souls boss than any of the other weekly bosses. The boss does not have a soft timelimit, and it rewards you for not getting hit. I wish more bosses were designed like this instead of a stats check. RareAcumen posted:Yeah, I'm at AR 31 now and I burned a lot of my money away upgrading people's talents. I think I'm gonna have to spend the rest of the month doing leylines for Mora and upgrade materials, because this is the first time I've dropped under 100,000 Mora since I've gotten Liyue unlocked. You would only focus one DPS for now. Your current levels probably would not do well in the fourth floor of the abyss. Razor is probably what I would pick to focus on first since he can only ever be DPS whereas Xianliang can DPS and/or support, and his abilities scale with Physical which is pretty versatile. Again, you can opt instead to focus on Xianliang with a crescent pike which makes her a Physical damage DPS like Razor, but unlike Razor, her abilities does not innately scale with Physical, and since Razor is already electric, it makes it easy for a superconduct team which lowers the enemies' physical resistance. So I would focus on Razor first and then Xianliang after you max him for your current World Level. UltraRed posted:What are people using to revive fallen characters? The best I've found is Noelle's Pancake specialty. 15% max Hp then + 550. Is there a better option? Whatever I have left over from mastering recipes and/or the mail.

CJ posted:Tier lists are good because it gives people a quick reference for the current understanding of who is good or not. This is important in a game based around investing resources. Tier list is mostly useful so as long as you are mindful of what they mean. It's like how Super Smash Melee has a tier list, but if you don't know why Fox is good, you picking Fox does not make you win tournaments. For instance, Klee is rated highly, but if you don't actually use her animation cancels, she is subpar. Nevertheless, you can beat the game with whatever. People have used Amber to clear floor 12 of abyss. Even though this game is resource constraint so investment choices are important, you also cannot choose your characters freely. And choosing to save your resources for a future pull that may not happen is going to be tough on you to keep progressing in the game. Nonetheless, the choice is yours.

ThePineapple posted:I succumbed to my poor impulse control and pulled for Childe. Turns out I got him before I hit pity (think it was 65 total rolls on banners), so it looks like I'm going to build him into a main DPS. If you are F2P, it is not recommended. But therein lies the trap. If you don't have a good weapon for what character you pulled, you are somewhat limited in your character's full potential.

I would look up both bosses' movesets. For Anemo, you can literally bring anything. For Geo, you just need just need claymore users and/or Geo for the pillars, so bring both Razor and Noelle. For Geo, even if your Noelle is underleveled, she can still finish off the boss in its final phase with her Q because the pillars are like mining ores.

Mr Snips posted:I'm starting to regret putting resources into levelling up Chongyun. He helped me get through the first 2 team abyss floor since I didn't have a good B team dps option at the time, but now he's become a waste of a team slot since his attacks become an active hinderance to so many other characters and he doesn't seem do enough damage to offset that. If Chongyun is your main dps for team b, you are supposed to build around his abilities: https://www.reddit.com/r/PopsicleMains/comments/jv3ae6/switching_from_instructor_set_to_vv_set_for/. Otherwise using him as a support is generally a bad idea unless you just need his ult and/or converting your autoattacks into ice is not bad for you.

YoshiOfYellow posted:I'm having a... unique problem of having Too Many Archers and Not Enough Bows. I got Rust on Childe, Stringless on Fischl, and Favonius Warbow on Venti. This kinda leaves Diona with nothing useful she could really benefit from unless she steals the Favonius Warbow from Venti... which then leaves him without a decent weapon. Unless you plan to run them together, you can just swap weapons for the ones you are not using. Nonetheless, yes, this is the trap; aiming for a character when you don't have a good weapon to pair her with.

You could do them and not take the reward. Save that resin for elsewhere until tomorrow when the keyline will change to a different location. Pope Urbane II posted:Everyone having trouble with the salvage operations clearly isn't running Venti or Sucrose because chaining the succ makes things go very quickly.

Use the elemental characters given to you. You can use fire and ice against their shields; if for some reason you decided not to level either elements in your party, you can swap to a low level with an character that can enforce it with their E. If you have both ice and electric fatui, more advancely, you can swirl the ice fatui's attack into the electric fatui's shield. Nonetheless, all of us can swap to a low level kaeya and/or amber to deplete their respective shields.

Given the actual security model of the Genshin Impact account, linking your email and/or phone does not add a layer of protection. It might add a layer of authenticity when you contact them about your account being hijacked, but MFA has not been enabled in anyway. Just use a long, randomly generated password. Anyway, I don't believe this, at least until I hear from official channels. There has been false rumors in this community before, and this sounds like another one.

If I want to enter a battle with my ultimates fully charged up on everyone, I enter the Golden House domain and proceed to use autoattacks via the favonius bow. Then I leave after everyone's ultimates are charged up. Anyone else got a more efficient strategy? It has been my strategy especially if I do not want to lose health, as I have mastered how to get hit in that domain.Amuys posted:A hilarious thing I discovered while exploring the Liyue ruins is that shorter characters will be forced to swim in pools of water most other characters can stand in.

padijun posted:they launched a game where they take CC/email/phone numbers Well the internet and our electronic devices are have a history of plain security mistakes like this, and even now, there are numerous undiscovered security bugs. It's about incentives, and with a game such as this, investing in account security earlier and in design would not lead to an initial rapid increase of $393 million in profit. Given the game's publicity, these security issues are coming to light earlier than normal, and usually, the bug reports are made privately and only published after the issue has been fixed if, hopefully, the company actually acknowledged the report. Unfortunately, good security is not profitable, at least not in the beginning; what brings in more money is more content, more characters. awesmoe posted:2fa doesnt require infosec specialists It's less about "active disinterest" and more about tradeoffs. I can imagine having crossplatform accounts with their own logins can be difficult infrastructure to structure around for multi-factor authentication if they did not initially design their systems as such. To this day, Spotify does not have any sort of mfa; some banks only have mobile 2fa which is a weak version of mfa despite the importance of keeping a bank account safe. The lack of response about 2fa from Mihiyo is very troubling, and any form of mfa is better than none. But, like how Spotify and the banks stick to whatever mfa or lack thereof, the money keeps on rolling.

Reiterpallasch posted:some of the artifact domains pretty much demand co-op when you hit 45 if you've been slacking on getting your artifacts up to speed until then. Or if you are F2P. Nonetheless, I have been mostly lucky with matchups for artifact domains. If there is a Venti, the co-op experience is usually beatable. The only bad experience I had is with Childe. Two players immediately died in the beginning, and Zhongli and I had to carry ourselves to victory without heals. And the Zhongli did not mind taking hits since he had shields for days even though the attack pattern affected me as well, and as we were about to win, the host who died earlier kicked us out... But cooping can be pretty fast and resource-free. And there are achievements for co-oping.

UltraRed posted:Got my first 5 star hat In the late game, crit chance/crit damage is pretty good for your DPS units so as long as your DPS maintains 1:2 ratio of crit chance to crit damage. That being said, long term, those substats seem relatively mediocre, and the set bonus itself is not the most optimal for DPS units. Nonetheless, long term, you can invest in that crit circlet now and feed to another with better substats with a better set bonus; for now, the main stat is more important than substats and set bonuses so as long as it is a leveled up 4* or 5*, and that is a fine piece.

Have you played an officially published RPG where they let you have an unlimited number of items? Most computer systems have a native integer type that has a limit for several reasons, but for games, having a very long digit number does not look good for the user interface so they limit how many digits can show up on the interface which would be 9999, 999, and 99. And I already said that it has been discovered for weapons, artifacts, etc. that the game prevents you from picking additional items.

Depending on your team composition and to take on the abyss, you would think about leveling Kaeya and Chongyun to 50/60/70 since having ice for the electric fatuis might help, and you want levels to ensure their survival. Otherwise, your team roster overall seems fine, and perhaps minmaxing your artifacts should be your focus.
