i don't know what's happening but there are a lot of numbers hyperbloom soup seems like it could be a fun team   those green numbers in the second pic are doing 20k damage when I have a level 1 naked collei so I'm gonna guess that's Kazuha causing blooms with his burst. (mine is only 760 em so with better artifacts those numbers will be even juicier)

Frankly, from just looking at the map you'd probably do like me and take the northern chasm teleport and walk around. You don't even need to go looking for it though they put a whole new teleport waypoint on the map in chasm if you head to the new chasm teleporter to unlock it you will just walk right into the entrance of the tunnel, since that's where the new teleporter is. It's impossible to miss it unless you just ignore that teleport entirely.

You could put it on fish or bennett for example, if you really wanted to commit to only using them to in Tighnari's team. However having a second dendro does help out Fischl/Yae's damage since it means you can more easily get 100% uptime on quicken.

The important thing is that dendro MC's burst only reacts once, kinda like anemo MC's tornado's elemental absorption. So as soon as it touches hydro or electro you're fine and it will never get popped.

gandlethorpe posted:I only think he needs one thing to be great, and that's to not be hard countered by tight spaces. Killing Eremites in tents is a nightmare. Oh no, it's the Ningguang burst problem all over again It's not just tight spaces, if an enemy is up close against a wall the homing projectiles will often try and circle around behind them and end up hitting the wall instead of the perfectly exposed juicy target right there. It can even happen in domains if you have enough knockback to push enemies off into the corner. x1o posted:What stats should I focus on for Dendro traveler? I mostly just blindly follow the spreadsheet but they don't have a dendro section yet for obvious reasons. Depends on team comp. If you're doing a quicken team Dendro MC should have a healthy amount of EM alongside still having a dendro goblet & crit hat, since both the dendro and electro get to do EM-scaling reaction damage there. (And quicken reactions do benefit from crit and all that stuff, but not attack). In that case you can also do the new gilded dreams set. In a bloom/hyperbloom/burgeon team bloomine's EM won't matter. IDK how good the damage scaling on DMC's talents are but you would probably just go for atk/dendro/crit or ER/dendro/crit artifacts with like... EoSF? Or if the damage is crap just go for Noblesse instead. RPATDO_LAMD fucked around with this message at 04:50 on Aug 26, 2022 |

FractalSandwich posted:I have enough primos to force the 50-50 on Zhongli, but my instinct is telling me to let it go and keep saving until I have a better understanding of who else I might want and why. Especially since the all the one-time primo rewards from quests and statues and whatever else will presumably start drying up eventually? Zhongli is like a top 5 character in the game alongside kazuha and bennett and idk who else. But really you can just roll for characters you like instead of going for strength and you'll do just fine, there's nothing that really requires optimized teams besides 36-starring spiral abyss for an extra less-than-1-roll worth of primogems and even that you can brute force through by just grinding better artifacts. So pick Zhongli if you think he's cool or being invincible and never dodging is fun, otherwise wait for someone you think is cooler. Once you've hoovered up all the one-time primogem rewards in the universe, the rule of thumb is that you get about 60 rolls each patch cycle once you add up all the dailies, events, new content with one-time rewards, etc. So it'll take about 1.5 patches to save up for another 50/50, or 3 patches to save up to get a character guaranteed.

I figured the grinding-friendship-xp thing was just a vague excuse to pull different characters out of storage and play with a variety of teams/characters instead of instagibbing everything in the overworld with your abyss team. Personally I like running around with my abyss squads all the time so I don't bother with it.

The teapot generates 5 friendship exp per hour and it takes 29,100 exp to hit level 10, so if you fill your teapot with 8x level-1 characters and never play them it will take ~243 days to get them all to friendship level 10. In the past 243 days (since January 1st) there have actually only been 7 characters released, so it should be possible to keep up with only the teapot.

Endorph posted:and artifact sets like viridescent venerer and deepwood memories still trigger their res shred even if the character with them equipped is off field. Wrong! Artifact sets do not work from off field unless they specifically say they do (like Millelith or Gilded Dreams). So if Fischl wears a thundering fury set she won't get the cooldown reduction from reactions while she's not on field, and if Sucrose throws her burst but then swaps out before it swirls any elements she won't apply the VV debuff, even if you throw loads of elements into it later. Weapon passives do work from off field though.

Kazuha's tornado does trigger his A4 passive from off field which will still give you a pretty meaty damage buff and make your damage numbers a lot higher even without VV.

Ytlaya posted:Is Sayu really good at breaking Abyss Mage shields? It seemed like it when I was using her some yesterday. I would just keep rolling on them and their shields dissolved super fast. It may have helped that it was triggering Raiden's thing at the same time. Sayu is good if you infuse her roll with whatever element the shield is weak to. Pure anemo on its own does quite low damage to shields though, on par with just whacking them with a claymore.

Ytlaya posted:In this case I think she was infused with Electro, but there were two separate mages with different element shields and they both went down really fast (one was Pyro and I forget what the other was, I think either Hydro or Electro). It seemed to be largely a function of how fast they were being hit, since they went down in the form of a lot of fast small decreases. Ah, if you're hitting multiple elemental shields at once anemo chars like Sayu are great for that. You can trigger swirls for any element you hit, not just the one that's already infused. So if you get between a Pyro and Hydro mage and start spinning, each time you hit the hydro mage you'll trigger an aoe hydro swirl that does big damage to the pyro shield, and each time you hit the pyro mage you'll trigger an aoe pyro swirl that does...moderate damage to the hydro shield (seriously why don't hydro mage shields have any real weakness?)

Maxwell Adams posted:Alright, I've been trying to boost my hyperbloom damage, and I'm getting nowhere fast. Bonus damage % from goblets, Mona, geo resonance etc has never affected flat-damage reactions. 4TF should work, or just stacking more EM with 2pc Wanderer or 4pc Gilded. Keep in mind that the reaction damage from sets like 4TF stacks additively with the damage increase from EM, so if you already have high EM it will in practice be much less than a 40% increase.

No Wave posted:Neither opinion is wrong, but fischl does a ton more off field damage and applies more electro. Even if it's a comp that is friendly to raiden's field hogging fischl is still often more damage. It's only very specific comps that raiden ends up better. Ofc if your characters have underbuilt ER in general raiden will always be better. And a lot of the time they're very close in damage so it's not like you're deprived building one and not the other. The advantage of Raiden is that she can theoretically enable her teammates to go for different builds with less ER and as a result more damage. That could mean swapping an ER sands for an atk one, changing a Favonius weapon for one with crit instead, or it could mean swapping high-ER-substat artifacts for higher crit substat pieces. But that last option is only really there if you've been grinding your face into the artifact mines every day for 2 years and have a good selection of well rolled artifacts.

Sanctum posted:All I mean is how you use the character in rotations. What role are they filling? I've used Fischl as a main phys DPS with Chong/Bennett as supports. Like Ning or Heizou can easily be a main DPS or sub DPS depending on how you rotate them. I think it's a mistake to conflate "support" = "quickswap / off-field character" and "dps" = "on-field character" since while those roles have a lot of overlap they're far from absolute. For example Xiangling does the lion's share of the damage in the national team but spends less time standing around on field than even Bennett does. Or Sucrose or Kokomi drivers in taser teams vs Beidou as the off-field damage dealer. But then Xiangling in a Ganyu Melt team is playing a supporting role instead of a DPS role even though she has the exact same playstyle and field time as the national team, so your priorities of e.g. who to focus on for artifact/talent upgrades first will change. Kuki shinobu too: she's normally a support just used for heals + some electro application, but with dendro you can now build her as a damage dealer focusing on Quicken. "Driver" or i guess "carry" makes a lot more sense for the role you're describing since "main dps" implies that they are the main source of damage-per-second.

Yeah Ei's whole thing was that she was the war god who spent 100% of her time practicing hitting stuff with swords/spears and was just completely useless at every other subject. She let Makoto do everything and make all her decisions for her which is why she was such a godawful leader when she was suddenly running the country on her own. Sanctum posted:Maybe my Collei shouldn't have 83% crit rate if dendro bloom reactions can't crit? What does collei want, her skills seem to say ATK but dendro reactions say EM and more EM. Should I try removing hydro completly for aggravate reactions and focus on that if I want to keep crit rate on Collei? Right now I only get bloom/hyperbloom with electrocharged dendro soup. EM on Collei doesn't matter for bloom teams because 99% of the time the hydro(/pyro/electro) character will be the one triggering the final reaction. Unless you're doing collei+xingqiu+yelan or something with tons o' hydro. The deepwood set reducing dendro res works well for bloom teams because, counterintuitively, hyperbloom/burgeon still do dendro damage and not electro/pyro. So if you have a high EM Fischl/Yae triggering hyperblooms, the deepwood set on Collei or Dendro MC will shred resistance so those hyperblooms do more damage. For Collei herself you just want enough ER to spam her burst for elemental application and then some generic damage stats. Her stats won't influence the reactions so it's just to optimize the raw damage on her abilities. And it's pretty low priority compared to the rest of the team.

Mihoyo had no clue what they were doing when designing her and so her ultimate and passives are both pretty much completely useless but hydro is so good and her E applies it continuously in a big AOE for such a long duration that she ended up being really good anyways. You play kokomi just by pressing E and swapping out and enjoying infinite hp and an unlimited supply of freeze / electro-charge / bloom(?) reactions.

Kale posted:I remember a lot of people saying that her dash was clunky, which it was kind of up until the most recent patch, but a lot of people kind of overlooked her other perks like easy Cryo infusion, a really great charge attack with quick hits and a ton of range, a really high damage multi hit burst and her passive talents as well like the crafting one. Her skill also hits in a pretty large radius, has a decent refresh rate of 10 seconds and is an easy self-buff to go along with the easy cryo infusion. She's good enough on her own, but now they've also added Shenhe to make her potentially even more lethal. Her only real sort of drawback is she doesn't contribute anything for the rest of the roster aside from her crafting talent which is outside combat anyway. I rolled for ayaka on a whim (and randomly got her off-pity) just because I thought the dash infusion thing seemed cool. And then I realized that 85% of her power is in her burst and didn't use her for a long time, besides dashing across lakes. Now that I have Kazuha so her burst will reliably hit more than 1-2 targets she actually feels playable.
