Is Baizhu worth pulling? People are calling him broken as fuck but I'm too small brained to figure it out.
No. 288276
>>288275Really? I thought people were calling him a slightly worse yaoyao. From what I understand, he's a good enough healer and his shield is more for resistance to interruption but his healing makes up for the low hp of the shields. His dendro application is single target though, which is why yaoyao might be preferred. Still, I say you should wait till he's been out for at least a week before pulling if you're not sure. Seeing characters in practice changes the general opinion sometimes.
Also don't mindlessly listen to every youtuber you come across because a lot of them assume you have Nahida and built everyone or something. It's hard to find a proper reviewer that doesn't say "this other character is better and you'll use her so don't bother getting the husbando"

I finally got around to finishing Faruzan's hangout and I honestly liked her way more than I expected. She was really relatable to me actually. I never hated her design as much as other nonas did, but it grew on me a lot over the course of the hangout as well. I still won't use her though since I only have her at C1.

>>288501Also found some of her scrapped designs. I feel bad for saying this as it's one of the less revealing outfits but I don't find Yunjin's current look appealing at all. I find it pretty ugly actually… I wish they went with the red design or any of the scrapped ones, they look better imo.

Since the only that I'm currently using in my teams right now is Bennet it would be nice to have another healer.
>>288425I also liked her hangout and I feel your strungle with only having her c1. It's so annoying how both her and Sara need a lot of constellations to fix issues in there kit.

>>288665I don't think 'nowhere' is a correct assertion considering that she's quite clearly based on the Honkai character Pardofelis. Whether you like the trend of Honkai characters getting inserted into Teyvat is up for your personal discretion (and fair enough if you don't), but it does make sense lore-wise (we all know Teyvat is one of Honkai's bubble universes), and besides, I am pretty biased considering I love her Honkai character and she's a fantastic DPS.

I like Kaeluc and I believe that each person is free to interpret their relationship however they want to. Either way, they canonically aren't related by blood and I PERSONALLY don't see them as brothers in any sense of the word. I just wouldn't feel comfortable shipping two characters if I also thought of them as being related. So, from my perspective, I haven't done anything 'problematic' or 'immoral' as my OPINION is that them being brothers is not true. Where I'm going with this is that I want to ship what are to me two consenting and unrelated adult characters. But the Kaeluc fandom are fucking freaks. They REVEL in calling them brothers and love drawing fucked up pedo art and relishing the incestual interpretation of their dynamic. And the people who hate Kaeluc are also fucking freaks who tell people to kill themselves over drawings and force their own (brotherly) interpretation of their relationship onto everyone else despite the fact it's up to each individual to decide. As a result, both groups have sucked out all the joy of shipping them. Does anyone else like Kaeluc and feel this way? Are there any pro-Kaeluc places I can go without bumping into fucking incest-loving freaks? (I'm okay with nsfw, just not their 'Oh, yes! Fuck me brother' weird shit). You could argue it's my fault since I should have known what I was walking into, but I just wanna know if there are even any other sane Kaeluc shippers at all
No. 288921
>>288916i love kaeluc and i don't see them as actual brothers (because it's obvious they're not), more like childhood friends who lived together but there is nothing wrong with liking incest in fiction and it doesn't mean you want to fuck your siblings irl. you can think it's degenerate but it's actually a pretty mild taboo fetish. i like seeing brothers fuck in yaoi for instance, but i dislike hetero incest. also even if kaeluc were stepbros, it wouldn't be a problem to ship them because "stepsiblings get married" is a very common trope in anime
i don't know why is everyone so dramatic about this
No. 288949
>>288916I always think it's funny when people claim that Kaeluc is incest, because they aren't blood related. Like one look at Kaeya's appearance and then comparing it to Diluc can show you that they are not brothers kek. I also see them as childhood friends, it's just because of the english translation that people actually believe they are family.
>>288811I wish you luck with getting c6 Kazuha! Mine is currently C2 and I would love to get his C6 eventually. But right now I want to get some other constellations from different characters first. I really want to get C2 Zhongli and maybe even C4 if my pulls go well. No idea when he reruns though. I also had the thought of maybe going for C6 Xiao instead of Kazuha. But Kazuha his burst is just so pretty.
No. 288975
>>288967If you don't really want Baizhu just keep saving your primos. If you don't want Lyney don't go for him. There's no guarantee he'll still be Pyro once he's released, we've already gotten conflicting information on whether Lynette is going to be an Anemo 4 star or a Hydro 5 star and it doesn't sound like either one is coming soon. If you want Wrothsley/Risley save for Risley.
>>288949I'm going for Kazuha now because it seems like he's going to be a one rerun a year kind of character, they don't like rereleasing him. Xiao is cool at C6, he gets a whole new playstyle with his E spam.
No. 288977
>>288916In my experience they're usually being reactive contrarians and that's why they're doing it for the shock value, to stir controversy. The people revering in how "them being brothers only makes it hotter and puritans can kiss my ass" usually like loli porn and other degenerate shit too because they're addicted to the drama it causes, not the subject matter in itself.
>>288967Fontaine won't be coming until maybe September(?) and chances are that he won't be in the first banner so you'll have plenty of time to save up on primos. Maybe just wait until Baizhu's been out for around halfway of his banner and see people's opinions on him and make the decision based on that? His kit is really hard to decipher and there are a lot of opposing opinions at the moment so take it slow.
No. 288987
>>288967You are lucky because Baizhu his banner will be at the end of the new patch, that means that you can wait till the last moment and see if we got any more leaks about when future characters you might like more will arrive.
>>288975You are right, it took forever for Kazuha to rerun. Vid related is exactly why I want Xiao C6, just spamming his E would be so fun kek.

I really wish the red line was just a normal invisible wall right on the edge of the map, why did they put such a nice view just out of reach…
Northeast is Mountains and you can see Liyue, Southwest is more desert, and then an ocean? Do we know if any of the other countries are on an island or over an ocean?
The new Anemo Hillchurls look cool, but then they had to make me feel sad by dropping flowers…
And somehow I managed to explore the entire map before getting around to the first waypoint that gives you the intro quest haha, wonder how many rolls I'll have saved up before Baizhu and Kaveh come out, already have 255.

What did you get nonas?
I lost Nahida to Dehya… I love Dehya’s design, I wish her kit was better and also I don’t really need pyro now. She’s pretty much useless to me. At least Baizhu guaranteed.
Also got:

>>289134>that kaveh is obviously into women (??) but he falls for alhaithamJP female players are obviously influenced by japanese BL. The blonde and extroverted uke who is a womanizer acting tsundere towards the cool seme as he falls in love with him is one of the most popular tropes for decades. It’s not really about getting cucked but more about the trope that a character who is popular and a smooth talker becomes tsun tsun with his true love.

I get how they’d get it from the JP voices though, they sound much more stereotypically old school BL in them.

>>289288Alhaitham is just a bit autistic kek. I really feel like he’s a Diluc reskin (in a good way), because similarly to Diluc he is a softie at heart when it comes to his family. Alhaitham really loved his grandma and has a tragic past with dead parents, just like Kaveh who was abandoned by his single mother who left him and remarried in Fontaine. Alhaitham does describe Kaveh as a perfect mirror, and Kaveh describes them as two sides of a mirror. They are opposites who in some way complete each other. So I think it’s cute that Alhaitham is a bit stoic in contrast to Kaveh. Similar pasts, different personalities. Just like Kaeya and Diluc.

Maybe it was to give her a more sporty look but the shorts that they show have no detail either so it looks lame.

Far darker and malevolent than most bakeneko, the nekomata is said to have powers of necromancy, and upon raising the dead, will control them with ritualistic dances - gesturing with paw and tail.> These yōkai are associated with strange fires and other unexplainable occurrences.She could have been edgy as fuck pyro design what a shame kek.

>>289505Her kit screams made by two different people who wanted two different things. Her skill could have been good like Albedo's, but it needed way stronger damage and faster application. If it procced every time you attacked, for example, or even every second she would have been a great Ayato support. Ayato loves being unable to be interrupted and fast application. But then her burst suggests building her like a hypercarry? But her scaling is much too weak for that, she needed five times the damage and be able to
trigger other skills like Xingqiu or Yelan. She just sucks and her useless tanking passive that nobody wanted or asked for eats too much power budget.
It says something when Thoma is considered a better tank option than a tank-type 5*.

>>289504I read your post wrong and thought you said pyro works with dendro well kek So that's what I mean too, pyros other than vaping is nice. She sucks but at least she doesn't do the same thing as every other unit of her element, it's at least a sign that they're not going to give us diluc no13876 with the next pyro unit, no? I'd rather wait till they make unique kits than just switch my crimson to the next pyro husbando and not build a new unique team. I think Dehya's case could be helped with her kit increasing her dendro reactions for example, so it's not unthinkable they'll add those mechanics to another pyro now.

In other news, what do you nonnies think about Yoimiya getting a second story quest in 3.7? It looks like most characters won’t be getting a second story quest, if this pace stays the same we would get a Dehya part 2 quest in Shneznaya. No way that they’ll be able to do all characters with how often we get new ones. It’s weird that Yoimiya was chosen as one of the few to get a part 2. I always thought Albedo would get one sooner than later. Childe is definitely getting a mainline archon quest story in Shneznaya and Venti is probably getting a huge lore dump one around endgame. But Yoimiya? I don’t see what makes her important.

Nonas who have built both Wanderer and Xiao, how do you feel like they compare?
I rolled Wanderer/Scaramouche back when he came out, but I've put off building him even though I have LPttSW, and my Xiao only has a Deathmatch. I'm sure a built Wanderer would feel stronger than my Xiao, and likely less jank too, but I worry that it won't be enough of an improvement to really justify the investment when I could working on support/sub-dps characters.

Anyone else get really surprised in the short little quest followup from Nahida's story quest when it actually had a playable character not being voiced? It made me realize that I'm not sure we've ever had a playable character appear in a world quest and not an archon/story/hangout quest before. They seem to want to have the playable characters basically always be voiced, but I really wish they would be willing to put them in world quests unvoiced. I feel like we would get a lot more interesting content if we were able to have world quests with the actual characters and not npcs

Kaveh feels so clunky to use for me. His attacks are so slow in applying dendro and somehow my collei and baizhu or xingqiu keep creating the bloom seeds. Any tips to make him the seed creator instead of his batteries? I saw a youtuber use kazuha as a battery too but I cant understand how an anemo will be better than a dendro, it could help me avoid collei's fast application though. If nonnies shared their kaveh teams and builds it would help a lot. Also I have mona but she's usually in my freeze team. Might use her if it's more suitable to have 2 hydro though

I think the complaints about the Desert would have been significantly alleviated if the map had a toggle for underground and surface like the interactive map has. It would have made exploring way less confusing.
>>294346I love to explore. I've 100% the entire world so far. I don't see the point in even playing the game if you don't like exploring Teyvat but to each their own I guess.
>>294363>>294385I see potential in Fontaine if it's heavily inspired by Jules Verne's books and not grounded in reality, but if it's really just "go explore British and French landscapes" that is going to be really boring. Natlan at least should be neat with the West African and Mezoamerican vibes as long as it's not more endless desert.

>>294398If you want a 5 star healer your options are limited between him and Kokomi unless you lose a 50/50 to Qiqi. I like him and think he's good, he's a more defensive option than Kokomi who is more of a sub-dps who heals. I think Baizhu is more suitable than Kokomi if you're playing a hypercarry team of some kind since he really doesn't need much on-field time.
That being said if you just want a healbot there's lots of 4 star options like Kuki, Bennett, Yaoyao, or Barbara if you're really desperate.

>>294398I recommend building a 4
healer because a 5 really doesnt make too much of a difference, probably just heals more than you need. If your 4*s are not healing enough it's likely a build issue, which is very easy to fix for healers cause they need 2 stats at most. Kazuha on the other hand is way more useful than any other anemo support. That said, pulling for characters you like will never fail you.

Banners in 3.7 along with their 4*s. That second weapon banner is cracked. I intend on going for C6 Kazuha and I already have a Mistsplitter for him but damn if it isn't tempting to get a Light of Foliar Incision for him.

I'm so happy, plus I want Yaoyao, so I'm glad the kid is on Kazuha's banner. I already have C6 Xiangling tho.
I agree the weapon banner is cracked… I'm tempted to pull to get one of the weapons, even though I don't have Alhaitham, kek. But it's not everyday that we get two husbando banners at the same time…

Yeah, I know, sales figures like this aren't 100% accurate, blabla. But I'm honestly surprised that Baizhu is selling this terribly. I kind of thought he was at least somewhat anticipated since he has been in the game for such a long time and was the first dendro character we have ever seen, and he is also the first 5 star dendro healer/shielder.
No. 296034
>>296006He's a healer, healers aren't popular. Also his weapon sucks even on him, which doesn't incentivize pulling for it, and he ran right after Nahida so people's wallets are likely drained from pulling for her. It's a combo of factors.
He did better than Kokomi, I'll take that as a small win. Honestly I'm amazed Dehya's banner did better, but I'm wondering if Cyno didn't carry her a bit. Say what you want about Cyno's playstyle but his first banner had pretty good sales and his weapon works well on Xiangling if nothing else.

Yeah they copied a lot of stuff from BotW, but it really is it's own game now.
They put far too much effort into the open world, orchestral music, 4 different language voice overs and console support, for it to be a cashgrab game that they'd just give up on.
No. 296966
>>296778(nta) all gacha games are cashgrabs.
>effort into the open worldthat ugly world did not have half as much effort and/or thought put into it's design as you're giving it credit for, especially not when you remember how much money genshin's made them.
>orchestral music, 4 different language voice overs and console supportmost chinese gachas have minimum 2 dubs, this one isn't special. know the norms of these games before you praise genshin for standard features. they do all this because they want their game to succeed, it isn't that deep. I remember how transparently money hungry they came across in interviews before it came out. it runs terribly on everything that isn't an expensive PC btw, being lazily slapped on a bunch of other platforms with little to no effort into making it run decently on said platforms should be the last thing you bring up when you're trying to grasp for straws as to why YOUR cash grab gacha isn't like the other cash grab gachas. they couldn't even be bothered to follow through with the switch version because lord knows they're not willing to allocate the resources needed to get that terribly optimized mess running on the overpriced 2015 android tablet that is the switch kek.
it's more in line with your standard gacha cashgrab than any "real" game, dead open world or not, and all but the most delusional genshinfags will rightfully treat it as such. the gameplay speaks for itself. it's still okay to like it or any other gacha anyways. you don't have to deny reality to justify your taste, it's just a game.

open world? an open world doesn't make a game good,
nonny. it's a gimmick trendy with people who've never played one before, cash grabs are characterized by gimmicks and trend hopping. if the novelty of an open world no matter how dead and ugly is so impressive to you that it keeps you doing the same mind numbing daily tasks, recycled events, and unsatisfying exploration for 2 gem chests so you can buy a gacha character once every 4 months then good for you. enjoy it and all the other mobagay open world cash grabs cropping up while the trend is still alive. the tears of the kingdom hype might've even extended its lifeline—not to imply you should expect a mobagay to attempt to mimick anything that game has to offer other than the open world and moe twink protagonist. or only play genshin 5ever because I doubt you'll have the stamina to pick up another after all the suffering it's subconsciously put you through.

Apparently Qiqi was going to have a Character Quest that was later scrapped. I'm torn, because it sounded like it kind of just regurgitated info we already knew about Qiqi and I'd rather something that focused more on her and Baizhu rather than NPCs, but at the same time Qiqi's been pretty neglected in terms of plot relevance. I do hope she gets something one day.

No. 300572
>>300541Honkai's entire purpose is first and foremost putting the staff's self inserts and waifus/husbandos in a game and that's it. It's like a really self-indulging fan fiction that has a battle system built around it. People can talk shit about Genshin all they want but the fact is that compared to the Honkai series it's more player oriented and had explosive popularity that far surpassed Honkai at its launch. Past the honeymoon phase of looking at new sparkly husbandos people just didn't really keep up with HSR and either went back to Genshin or found something else, because like said Sampo being the most interesting one says a lot about the game's overall tone. The male characters look copy and pasted and don't have a personality to them, it's like Genshin's female character syndrome but for males. I don't even see any popular HSR fujo ships because nobody finds the male characters that interesting, not fujos nor yumes nor anyone in between. Maybe male players who self-insert since some of them are even given canonical love interests.

So I think this design is definitely fitting for my impression of her so far. I really really really hope they write her as a strong archon instead of an uwu waifu. If they don't fumble the bag I'll pull for her because she's just gorgeous and her personality has so much potential to just be my type.

I think if the constant hostile reactions to anyone using female characters, good or not, or anything regarding waifus, husbandos and shipping will end up killing this thread and only leaving like a couple of anons remaining. Which sucks
That aside; we're not gonna get much hydro characters in Fountaine, are we? I'm dying to know what Fol's abilities are and if she works as a sub dps, I need a second Xingqiu-like character that isn't Yelan so bad.

Why do you think we won't get more Hydro characters during Fontaine? I think I saw a leak that said
the leaked loli was Hydro. Lyney's sister too, although there are some people that speculate she may be Anemo. It's not very clear. No. 301756
>>301598I didn't mean to be mean to the yoimiya anon. It just seemed kinda doomposting to already say that he will be unnecessary because ganyu and yoimiya exists even tho we dont know his kit and you can use other characters than ganyu for melt.
I think i saw a leak that Folcalor her kit will buff your team but drain your health, it was a very old leak tho so im not sure if its reliable. It would be nice if she could apply hydro off field but not as fast as xq so i can use her for quick bloom.
No. 301779
>>301518>>301756I was going off kit leaks that said he was going to be a charged shot Pyro bow and play kind of like Ganyu or Tighnari. The problem with that kind of playstyle for Pyro is right now there's no Hydro characters that apply Hydro off of charged shots, so with the current roster he'd be hardlocked to Melt comps. Kaeya would suck for that kind of comp because Kaeya's rings are too close-ranged for comfort, Kaeya is a lot better for melee-ranged Melt. Rosaria would admittedly be okay, though not as good as Ganyu or Layla for long-ranged Melts unless the enemies are slow and stay near the Rosaria ice field. It's not a Lyney problem specifically, it's a Pyro synergy problem.
If you want him go for him, I think he's one of those units that will get better once there's more characters with offield effects that work with charged shots. If Focalors for instance applies Hydro with charged shots that'll be really good for him.
>>301598We're getting at least three more Hydro characters in Fontaine: Neuvilette, Focalors, and the loli. Lynette is either Hydro or Anemo, the leaks have been contradictory.

>Kaeya would suck for that kind of comp because Kaeya's rings are too close-ranged for comfortYou mentioned in your post Ganyu melt, her best team is literally Bennet Zhongli and xl. xl a character who also has a ring that has a close range (yes it's range goes a bit further away then Kaeya but its a small amount which is why she's also being used with melee ranged characters). Most enemies will teleport to you anyway. Have you tried using Ganyu or Tignari this abyss? It's a waiste of time to try and keep running away and shoot at a distance.
Also I don't see the point in wanting Focalors to apply hyrdro on charged shot, as example Kokomi and Mona why not just have her apply hyrdro offield?
Anyway for me there is no point right now in "theorising" if people should pull on him or what team he works best with because we know so little about his kit.

yoimiya isn't even that good of a pyro dps, i don't hate her or anything but from a meta pov lyney has a chance to be much better. obviously if you prefer your yoimiya no one is gonna force you to roll for him. i personally hate her playstyle and i don't have any other pyro dps so for me lyney might be great.
neuvilette on the other hand doesn't seem very appealing for three reasons 1.his design isn't doing it for me at all 2.i already have ayato and childe who i love much more 3.it's very unlikely he'll be better than yelan from a meta pov. i wouldn't be surprised if he's dps since focalors will obviously be a support. i'm a husbando collector first and foremost however neither neuvilette nor wriothesley are up my alley… it's a weird situation. i feel like the male character designs used to be more attractive when the game was released
No. 301858
>>301856samefag i just checked the different between range with Kaeya and xl ult and her "outer part" of the ult has same range as Kaeya. So yeah i guess you can argue that xl does have a longer range which might help a bit, but like i said with this abyss you really dont even care about getting out of range.
>>301857I don't like Neuvilette because he is another male character who is completely covered from head to toe. I'm only looking forward for Wriothesley because he is supposedly cryo.
>very unlikely he'll be better than yelan from a meta povBoth Yelan and XQ, if this abyss showed me anything it was how nice it is to have a shield or something that helps with stagger. XQ is such an OP character, I feel like he's even better then Bennet and XL because those 2 are almost always in a package.
>I feel like the male character designs used to be more attractive when the game was releasedIdk i really like the sumeru males, its just that fontaine seems to have some crappy designs imo.

If they're going to do TCG events, they better give us pre built decks again.

I was a day one player, and I quit during the last summer event. my interest had been fading for a long time prior but that event made me realize core problems the game has, how they've only gotten worse over time, and that playing further would be a waste of my time. it's best to move on and pick up a new game that sparks joy, this isn't the type of game that stays fresh for long. it's sad but once the novelty wears off that spark never comes back, trying to force yourself back into it will only remind you why you left.

I stopped playing in 3.6 after playing almost everyday since 2.0. I think it’s normal to feel bored of a game after such a long time. I’ve literally been playing 478 hours according to my ps5. The desert exploration wasn’t my thing, they totally fucked up the epic potential of revealing Kaeya as a royal of Khaenri’ah when he met Dain. The Dainsleif quest ended so abruptly too. So it left a bad aftertaste and I just took a break. It’s not a bad thing though right? I’ll come back in 4.0 like many anons will, and the thread will be alive again.

All Skirks (Childe's teacher). The only one I find objectively awful with no redeeming qualities is the purple one. The Abyss ones are the best, though the left isn't bad either. The red ones have interesting design elements but they look pretty overtly Fatui imo. If I didn't know they were Skirk I'd think they were playable/past Signora concept art.

So far none of these Fontaine characters are tempting me to wish for them design wise, not even the guys sadly.

>>303299I think they’re really fun designs, a bit like Pokémon gijinkas kek. Most of them won’t be finalized probably. The male characters look cute but most of the boys are definitely obvious 4-stars unfortunately. Looks like we really are getting 2-3 tall males in Fontaine.

Alright so here is a compiled pic of our male characters in 4.0-4.8 that look the most complete and/or have been mentioned in story leaks (making them confirmed as actual characters in-game).

Aside from leaks, hoyo’s developers did a little discussion thing. They’re basically fixing the multiple quests character/npc interferences and we’re getting underground maps finally. So for the nonnies who can’t explore the desert underground because they get dizzy and lost (me), waiting for 4.0 to explore should be best.

>>303298These all make me want to die. In fact, this image was the final nail in the coffin of any remaining interest I had in Genshin that I hoped to rekindle by scrolling through the leaks in this thread. I'm tired of them scrapping fantastic designs in favour of thigh-highs, tights, tiny little skirts, and stupid ass colour bashing coomer bait. Do you have any idea how much tension Childe fans have been building up around Skirk for the past three years just to end up with. WITH THAT?? AND I can't believe they scrapped such a nice, symmetrical, somewhat clean looking and handsome sampo-clone for that janky ass ABOMINATION. Who finds either of these designs attractive, let alone tolerable on the eyes?? Hoyoverse just keeps fucking everyone over and I'm tired of it. Brb going to watch Miguel O'Hara edits and mark me this. I'll be damned. DAMNED. if I'm ever duped into thirsting over a skinny ass ugly ass unpalatable ass pale ass genshit twink again.

But in all honesty I (personally) never put that much faith or hope in a waifu collector game story or character wise even though sometimes they might hint they can do nice things it's best to keep your expectations low so you won't be disappointed and just play casually. Whether it's Genshin or any other gacha.

https://imgur.com/a/ZzJKKia#kakU0ve>>303461This was very funny to read kek, you are based for being a Miguel O'Hara simp. I don't think I will stop playing yet, I can still enjoy the game but I respect your decision.

Tbh I thought he was ugly at first but I'm so curious to find out more about the Sampo clone now, I might even redownload Genshin for him. I've even wanted to play hsr because of him but the gameplay and story was so boring that I had to stop, so I'm glad there's going to be a replacement kek I love the small details on his design so far. It's sad that they won't ever put any male character into slutty outfits, but it's also to be expected when people eat it up anyway for some reason. Always pathetic when anyone lusts after some guy in full suit and goes crazy over bare ankles or whatever, I want him collared and on his knees

>>303556>>303557I'm sure the 3D modelers have a say and they all seemed to be males based on the Yun Jin video. Several of the 2D character designers were women, so make of that what you will.
I disagree with the Wriothesly hate though. I like the current design. I like his grey hair bits and the fur. I don't like the off the shoulder thing in the concept we first got but hopefully they got rid of it, it's not in this 2D design. Could he be broader? Yeah. But it doesn't seem like they're done making the bulkier male model yet.

>>304685yeah I get the steampunk aversion with the big ass goggles (although Bennett has them already), but the super sophisticated bright clean city just feels overdone after Sumeru. That was the whole Akasha-using Sumeru city vibe. Lyney def gives off vibes like pic rel so I really thought that a goth or whimsical circus vibe was more fitting for Fontaine. And I just really miss Fischl's gothic domain from last summer kek.

>>304696>how the main guy from it trooned out into a grotesque steampunk honEw. I didn’t know he did that. Looked it up, and sure enough. I had a friend that was into this band forever ago, but haven’t heard anything about them after I stopped hanging out with that person. Shame. I used to think he was kind of cute.

>>304690>but the super sophisticated bright clean city just feels overdone after SumeruSumeru wasn't like that at all though, it had market places and a bazaar reminiscent of middle east/India and was filled with small huts wrapped around a giant tree with the academia being the only more grandiose building around which makes sense. Mondstadt had a cozy cottagecore Bavarian theme so Fontaine looks different to that as well with the high-tech city vibe. I would've been so disappointed they went with a generic steampunk region with some ~creepy goffik circus aesthetic~ because it would've been way out of place in Teyvat and overplayed to death anyway. Fontaine had always been foreshadowed as the region of advanced technology and water streams so I don't know why people are so disappointed.

>>304679I'm fine with it because I think they're setting up for class warfare between the richies and the poors. The upper city being clean, pristine, and patrolled by robot enforcers makes sense to me – provided they have a good grungy lower city or underground to contrast against. Other bits in the game have remarked upon Fontaine's increasing pollution problems, so that must be somewhere yet to be seen in the trailer. It did remind me a bit too much of how some of the pokemon games look though, especially the silly dogs and the way the buildings look.
>>304284>then they pull shit like pairing kaveh with fucking nilou…Doesn't seem to have mattered very much to female fans considering the LARGE quantity of solo kaveh suit art and kaveh+alhaitham suit art I've seen.

>>303556>I wonder if the people who eventualy make the calls on what designs they will actually chose as final design is only a team of males or something?This is how it felt looking through a lot of the leaks, like the 2d designers come up with some really cute ideas that would appeal well to women and then whoever signs off on the final designs doesn't understand what actually makes the characters cute and appealing.

>>306394Not if you want to clear Abyss with full stars.
If you don't care about Abyss then yes, you can focus on only male teams and you will be fine. I myself have a few only male teams that clear non-Abyss content pretty easily (bosses, exploration, overworld quests, etc.). What's nice about Genshin is that you can turn any character you want into a DPS using certain characters, artifacts, and weapons. It's a pretty versatile game.
No. 306403
>>306394you can use male only teams but you might be cucked out of giving them the best possible supports. we don't have any male electro supports for instance so dendro reaction based teams will be a problem. anemo dps like xiao and wanderer needs faruzan. however if you're a whale you can just C6 your husbando and clear everything
there's geo team with itto, zhongli, albedo and gorou which works perfectly fine but childe national requires xiangling, and alhaitham hyperbloom requires kuki. tighnari requires yae, cyno requires an electro battery. ayato, xingqiu, bennett, kaeya, baizhu, zhongli, albedo and kazuha are very versatile in general. you can do many different comps, but it probably won't be the most ultimate meta

>>306405Abyss has 4 floors (9 flor to 12 floor) that reset every 14-15 days.
Clearing it gives you 600 primogems (around 3 pulls)(150 primos for every floor you complete with 9 stars), granted you clear it with 36* stars. Each floor has 3 levels and each level has two sides. You need to complete the levels in a certain amount of time to get 3 stars on that level.
As you can see, the rewards are not that great. Most people don't even bother.
Floors 9 and 10 are a joke, and the enemy lineup won't change during the whole 4.X update.
Floor 11 can be hard for newbies. I always do that floor with full stars and all-male teams.
Floor 12 is a fucking nightmare. I only clear it so it shows in my profile, but I barely get any stars lately. Only 3 out of 9, at most.

Btw, now that we are talking about meta and all that, I want to ask a question. How the hell do Bloom teams work?

Or it's better to go for a crit build?

>>306421In Kaveh teams Kaveh is detonating the blooms, so he needs a lot of EM. In Nilou teams you're using Kokomi or Nahida to both make and destroy the blooms so they need the EM (because Nilou makes the blooms autodetonate vs Kaveh using a skill to detonate them early).
Bloom damage doesn't scale off of crit unless you have C2 Nilou and/or C2 Nahida, and in those cases the crit rate and damage is capped anyways. So building crit for bloom is pointless. EM is the way.

I know which anon this is, you seethe every time someone says they're bored or they quit or they don't like the new designs or they don't want to play the card game. If you didn't care you wouldn't have to repeatedly announce that you don't care but they're wrong and it's the best game ever made but you don't care with a follow up samefag post.
Genshin's playerbase has been on the downtrend since Sumeru dropped and so far Fontaine is drawing less hype than it initially did. Any anons who want to discuss the game, positive or negative, should be welcome to give the thread some activity. Every other general thread is able to do that, but one anon is weirdly defensive over GI.

Genshin is naturally not as hyped because people who've been playing it for a couple of years got burned out or maybe found other games w/e after all games are supposed to serve as entertainment but it's the doomer attitude that got my attention.

Okay so i checked out the kit leaks. Freminet is an on field dps for shatter and pshysical. A pretty original 4-stat kit, which might mean that Wriothesley who is cryo will get the 5-star version of it. Lynette consumes HP too like Lyney, seems to be a thing now. Hydro traveler also has the HP drain. Lynette has a sub-dps role. Her burst infuses itself. Not tailored for Lyney but could work together nonetheless.

The new event is super cute! Klee is more mature about talking out of worry than grown adults because of the positive influence adults around her have on her and it was really sweet to see her affect others in a positive way. When Kaeya scolded the brothers because their fighting made Klee sad I was smiling like an idiot, he's such a good big brother. It just reminds me of how much Mondo feels like home. About Collei, I don't like that they're making her want to fill in Tighnari's and Amber's roles again, after she had a whole arc coming over it in the Windblume event. Did they forget? Will she forever be the young sister trying to copy others instead of finding her own path like she decided to in the previous event? Anyway, we'll likely have these carts in Fontaine, right? They're so fun and to be honest playing around with them after several updates of deserts made me excited about exploration in this game again.

I have to agree with the anons who like the event. Also, is it just me or has the writing in Genshin gotten way better in 3.0? The events have been much more enjoyable, the characters feel more relatable and I'm actually interested in the archon stories and world quests too. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise when the original writing team fucked off during Inazuma. I'm actually developing high hopes for Fontaine because the Sumeru chapter was such an improvement over the previous ones.

Welkin isn't bad from time to time but seeing this only 8 wishes difference between Welkin and BP when BP is higher in price shocked me.
I guess some would argue because of the BP's weapon and mats? Weapon? maybe, mats? If you're new or drain your resources quickly and can't wait but 8 wishes only 5 in intertwineds and 600 primos?! Not worth it imho
At least round it to 10 kek

>>306425>In Kaveh teams Kaveh is detonating the blooms, Technically yes he's detonating a lot of them but he's not the OWNER of the blooms, i.e. bloom damage is NOT calculated from his EM+level. Almost all of the time when you're generating blooms with him in the team, the blooms spawn from hydro hitting an enemy that already has the dendro aura on them. So, the bloom damage is calculated from the EM+level of one of your hydro units. You don't want your dendro unit "owning" the blooms anyway because it's much harder to keep a hydro aura on the enemy due to how dendro consumes the hydro aura faster than hydro consumes dendro. It's much easier to keep a dendro aura on the enemy when it comes to bloom teams (also partly why it can be challenging to swirl electro in aggravate teams).
>>306421>So if I want to make a Bloom team for Kaveh, does he need that much EM?? Or it's better to go for a crit build?You want to prioritize giving him enough ER to keep his burst up as much as possible and then EM to keep him alive from his bloom heals – NOT for bloom damage. His job for bloom teams is to apply dendro as much as possible and keep himself alive.

>>307444Nta but your explination is so easy to understand. Now I get why blooms do 5k only
But I have this question to any anon who would like to answer this question that bothered me since Dendro appeared;
How long is the duration of either Aggravate or spread? Bear with me for a sec:
Collie uses her skill, dendro is applied in enemy
Fischl uses her skill then spread happens
The question I have is once spread or aggravate is achieved, does that mean the dendro and Electro reaction needs to happen again for either spread or aggravate to activate again or is it like a set duration before I need to re-do the reaction?
Also, for 4 piece set of deepwood memories effect, which grants target's %30 dendro res for 8 seconds… What's the refresh rate on that? Per skill/burst or is there icd I don't know about
better to ask these now before dendro becomes second to shatter/physical kek Thank you

>>306421, and a few days after that interaction I went to KQM to look for Kaveh's recommended artifacts and weaps, and there they said that the Hydros in the team were the ones that owned the Dendro cores, so they needed EM. Then, in game8, they said that Kaveh's Elemental Skill "makes all Dendro cores, no matter who it was made by, scale their damage based on Kaveh's level and Elemental Mastery".
So I was pretty confused. I figured that KQM were the ones in the right, after all, they are the Theorycrafters™.
I also looked at Abyss runs, and I concluded that if you are using characters with strong Hydro application (Xingqiu + Yelan) or your only Dendro in the team is Kaveh, you don't need EM on your Hydro characters? Is this correct?
Here are my Hydro characters, all of them are built except for Mona (I don't like her) and Candace. I was thinking about pulling for Kokomi, so I can use her with Kaveh, Xingqiu and Zhongli. Should I farm EM artifacts for her too?

>>307521>Game8Game8 tends to have a lot of genshin misinformation on their website and crappy recommendations. I can see why they thought Kaveh's skill makes him "own" the cores, but it's not true. His skill only forcibly detonates them early. Take anything they say with a huge grain of salt and test it for yourself. Keqingmains is a lot more reliable and have more evidence backing their findings.
>I concluded that if you are using characters with strong Hydro application (Xingqiu + Yelan) or your only Dendro in the team is Kaveh, you don't need EM on your Hydro characters? Is this correct?You'll just need to test it yourself to see what aura is usually on the enemies when blooms are generated. I think you will end up being correct.
For example, in a Nilou team with 3 hydro and 1 dendro – if the dendro character is nahida, the bloom ownership is pretty evenly distributed between them ALL, but with pretty much any other dendro unit, it ends up being the dendro unit who owns most of them. Anyone who theorycrafted for Nilou before has gone through similar heartache of trying to figure out bloom ownership. It's tricky because of how characters apply different amounts of their element+ICD.
For most cases, ER or EM sands, EM goblet and EM circlet will be his best build. Again, prioritize having enough ER that you're able to burst off-cooldown. Technically ER or ATK/DMG/CRIT would be his most optimized for his personal damage in teams where he rarely owns the blooms but his personal damage is so low in comparison to the team's bloom damage, that it's not worth stressing over. 4pc deepwood memories will be his most flexible support set (make sure there is at least one character in the party holding this set), but 4pc ocean-hued clam & instructor, 2pc mix and matching ER/EM/dendro dmg/ATK sets are all viable too. Flowers of Paradise Lost if you're able to determine he owns most the blooms in the team.
You can always use lower floors of the abyss to more easily consistently trial and error instead of trying to find mobs in the overworld to test on.

I've been playing daily for a while, but not always using up all my resin, and not really on farming artifacts because I hate how many layers of RNG there is.

>>307869. Just use Kazuha or Venti and a character that isn't geo, dendro or anemo. I personally use Fischl's E, then Kazuha's E and Q. Comission done.
When I didn't have Kazuha, I used Venti a lot. He just sucks enemies in the air and makes everything so much easier.
And about the artifacts… you really don't need perfect stats, substats or whatever. That's only important if you are doing Abyss. I'm amazed at how casuals think they have to min max their characters to be able to play in the overworld. I guess metafags and theorycrafters have scared a lot of casual players with their doomposting and damage flex.

>>308053 she just joined the conversation which is okay of course! About the points you brought up, I think most anons agree that the Jade chamber rebuilding was disappointing since most of us complained in the thread at the time, although as previous anons mentioned I think it’s a bit unfair to judge the original pre-Inazuma Genshin story with the rebuilding arch since that Liyue addition came during the shitty Inazuma writing era, that we all agree was bad. Definitely agree that Mondstadt was the best with its simple yet charming (using that word again) fantasy plot. However, about the original Liyue story, the fact that many of us liked and payed attention to the Childe scenes more than the ganyu/keqing scenes, isn’t that enough in itself? Liyue was great because Childe and Zhongli were morally ambiguous and interesting characters that added to the world building like Venti, Kaeya and Diluc etc, so to me that’s enough. So if I understand correctly you’re still playing the game in hopes of it becoming like the Mondstadt story again? I think many anons can share that sentiment but get a bit confused when you sound a bit like you want to troll.

It made the Harbingers as an organization more threatening. I wish the Jade Chamber rebuilding was this year instead of last year, it would have given it more time to settle. But in the context of it having taken a year and some in-universe it doesn't grate too badly on me.

I feel like the Inazuma children story book is related to something that happened recently… didn't Yoimiya help him buy one for his siblings during that picture event in November?
>>309558My thoughts exactly. I feel like this event barely touched the character's lore, it was all about stupid NPCs all over again… The second summer event was one of the best events in Genshin. I think people complained last time that character stories were being developed in time limited events? Which I understand can be upsetting if you are a new player, but if you are that interested in a character just go to Youtube and watch the event videos, ffs. It's not like is essential to the main plot to know about Kazuha's or Mona's past in detail.
The story was a letdown and I also didn't like the scenery that much. I will never forget Fischl's fairytale castle and the joy of driving the Inazuma boat under the sunny sky! It really made me feel like it was summer ingame too!!! Good times.

This year feels a lot more watered down. Kokonut was definitely not important, she doesn't get any good character moments or anything. Eula too was just kind of there but I think her personality's so rancid that I'm glad she's not allowed to do much of her vengeance garbage anymore.
Klee's cute as always, Kaeya being so protective of her is good shit. Klee needs buffs, just change her ult so it can be played off-field and make her work with Venti, Hoyoverse. She'd be played so much more if she was a Pyro support like Xingqiu.

Plus because everyone is a simp for Scaramouche.
No. 310239
>>310236Scara is convenient in the overworld, yeah. Him and Yoimiya are overworld monsters.
I hope I'm wrong, every time a husbando banner does well is a good thing. I just don't see people pulling hard for Scara before Fontaine. Summer banners don't tend to do well unless the character is turbo broken like Kazuha because everyone's waiting for the new region.

If this is true (big if tbf) my guess is they saw the outcry from Signora fans and reversed course on her not being playable for that sweet cash but won't be able to slot her in for a while.
>>310355>fast attacking character with autotargeting is worse in the overworld than the slowest attacking character in the game entirely dependent on burst to do any meaningful damage in an "element" half the overworld enemies resistWrong. Also I bring up Yoimiya once and I'm a schizo? Calm down.
>>310345I wouldn't say she's meta, just that she kills things fast on the overworld like Wanderer does and flying enemies are no problem for her. I'm a sucker for characters like Yoimiya, Ayato, and Itto that are low effort vs stuff like Klee or Hu Tao where you have to animation cancel.

Jesus fucking christ. Whenever spoiled westfags whine about western fandoms having "too much drama" I just want to direct them to the Chinese fandom and their absolute batshit insane psyops and outright death threats to whatever company holding their waifu/husbando hostage. If there wasn't such a high language barrier and Chinese websites banning most IPs from outside of China people would be shocked at how far they're taking every fandom war. Imagine fucking
going out and killing living cats just to
trigger Scaramouche fans, Chinese moids are another level of psychopathic incel rage.
As for how it will affect the future, unlike Honkai Genshin is very, very popular globally and western and Japanese fans are possibly enough to keep it afloat and they have no idea about what's happening in the Chinese internet. So if any other Chinese gaming company maneuver is to be trusted, they'll just migrate more and more towards other markets and target them rather than pandering to the Chinese schizos.

I'm glad I live in the West. I think Scara is very popular with either gender here, I've seen lots of men pulling for him and of course, women. In my opinion, he is at the same level of popularity as Kazuha. They are both short males, and have cool animations/backstories/designs that can appeal to men and women equally.
That said, I barely interact with the fandom anymore, and especially NOT REDDIT. That hellhole is filled with 4chan lurkers, libfems and pickmes.

Sure, I’d prefer it if the designs weren’t made for the (Asian) male gaze, but we just have to continue proving that women play this game too and we aren’t going anywhere.

>>312352Not everyone wants to completely overwrite an existing character's personality. Genshin hetships specifically have nothing to them because Mihoyo intentionally keeps the female and male characters separate (while doing hardcore yuri/fujopandering because everyone can pretend like they're "just friends") so that players don't have to feel jealous over their waifu/husbando, just think back to the schizo here who was fuming over Alhaitham complimenting Dehya's wit once in the archon story. So people have to make the dynamics completely up. I get that it's self indulgent but claiming that ~everyone self inserts~ is dumb. I don't know when watching two interesting characters have cute or romantic interactions without imagining yourself in their place became such an incomprehensible thing to do.
In general the fandom's tendency to completely flanderize and bend the characters is a pet peeve of mine, for example I would never see Yoimiya, a standard tomboy and big sister character, blushing and being all cutesy especially with someone like Itto who would more likely be feeding into her active personality. Most of my distaste comes from when female characters are always made to act like moe waifus in hetships even when it doesn't fit their original writing because of a stupid heteronormative ideal. Yes I'm being a brain damaged sperg about this but this really fucking annoys me.

>>312352I wish I liked Zhongli/Childe because there's so much food and much of it seems pretty good but sadly it's just doesn't anything for me.
I really like Scaramouche/Kazuha and find their potential interaction and dynamics to be interesting. But sometimes it's a little uncomfortable to consume fanfiction/fanart of this couple. To be frank, some fans of this ship (and many other Scaramouche ships for that matter) really project themselves too strongly onto Scaramouche and it spills into their fanworks. I almost want to set them aside and tell them it's unsafe to overshare this much of their life, behavior, personal issues, and vulnerabilities with strangers on the internet or something? But, eh, many of them are I'm sure oversharing even more on their fandom social media accounts.
Never had this be such a consistent issue when viewing fanfiction/fanart before until the Genshin fandom.

When someone makes a new thread, can that anon change some things on the description?
>Check your spiral abyss data thingI think that link is broken, so it would be better to remove it.
I also recommend to add this page to the desc:
https://genshin-center.com/I have been using it, you can keep track of your achievements and see which ones you are missing. It also shows the amount of materials you need to level up characters and weapons, their talents, etc. and you can even add "custom characters" in case you are pre-farming for a character that hasn't been released yet. I recommend it a lot, it's very easy to use.

I hate how he always tries to cope that players don't need kazuha and that sucrose is better, I have played this game since launch and still have no c6 sucrose.

Daily: 645 points (x7 = 4,4515 aka 4.5 levels)
Easy weeklies:
-10 bosses: 450 points
-cooking 20 dishes: 360 points
-forge 20 items: 360 points
-complete 3 bounties: 450 points
-complete 3 requests: 450 points
(do Inazuma's Bounties and requests, they're the fastest)
Those with shared Sights' 1.5k will get you to level 50.
If you don't want to do all dailies then consider other weekly missions. You can do it!

>>313048>contrast colorContrast to blue is orange so the whole family of browns are also included. Wish I wasn't sleepy to imagine him in one of the shades kek.
Though design wise I get why the gave him monochrome design, I promise not sperg alot but it's a lazy way for designing characters who are usually serious and single-minded aka boring. Any contrast or clash in colors (or objects) in design is also reflected in their character.
I used to admire how smart designs were but the people who worked hard in some good designs really left hoyo, and not to hsr because those designs are also pixiv's top daily drawings tier. /end sperg

The new event is really fun. I love that it makes us visit old places and use our memories of them to figure out the animals' places. It takes me back to when I first explored those areas, I got strong flashbacks when I saw that sword today lol it's also reminding me why the additional areas before Sumeru were all done really well. Some rant about the topic of why Sumeru desert sucks ahead, even though I know everyone said they hate it a million times.
>Dragonspine has its own story and environmental mechanics, it adds to the events being there, whether serious or goofy. The environment makes those events uniquely played out in the snowy mountains as opposed to desert's events where I can imagine all of them being played anywhere else. It doesn't have anything unique to make the events more fun or more deep or more goofy.
>Chasm has its own story and ambience, the world quests in the Chasm gain from the Chasm's history and it adds some horror to them. Unique gameplay with lights, makes exploring easier and adds to the ambience even more.
>Inazuma's islands are all different: One's exploration is getting to know NPCs, one's is getting to know the war and witness the fighting around the camps, one is pollution in air and water that makes you experience the struggle as if you're actually visiting that place, one is a beautiful calm scenery with deep history related to the story of the entire world to explore underneath, one is a mysterious place with its own funny and cute world quest series, one is a lore heavy place that explains some mysteries in the previous place and has one of the best stories. All of them have different mechanics while exploring and make you feel like you're in a different place especially if you played while they were being put out. Only one of them has a giant exploration area in the sky, all others are properly sized, so the giant one is unique and its size adds to the ambience instead of being frustrating.
>Sumeru's expansions were only in the desert, environment and ambience didn't change except for the last place, new mechanics were overshadowed by how more frustrating exploration got the bigger the new updates got, the story was one really long world quest. At first the struggle with exploration was immersive, it just got annoying with how huge the scales of everything became and only being spammed with the same desert areas. Even Khaenri'ah's entrance wasn't a big reveal because it looks like everything else in the desert both aesthetic and size wise. It's not much different than coming across any other huge building underground.
Now I'm scared that the underwater exploration mechanics will suck ass and we'll get a million underwater additions instead of anything new. I know making these places is hard but they could make the areas smaller and more interesting instead in my opinion. I'm most scared that they'll make everything huge structures but we can't even see all of it in one piece unless we're miles away. At least underground maps should help a lot now, makes me regret exploring desert before 4.0 update.
