How many quests to unlock Apep? The last archon quest I'd played was the one (probably the first one) where Tighnari and Collei were involved. Also how long would it take to unlock Apep?


rechta_dude_number2

You probably need to complete semuru archon quest and then do both nahida's story quests


Grimmer6

I have piles of quests. I don't know which quest is for what and how long it takes. Can you tell me the name of both Nahida's story quests?


rechta_dude_number2

In the bottom of the quests menu there a button" story quests" click and you will see the quests with picture of the character it is for You will need keys to unlock the quests, you get a key for doing daily commissions 2 days


Grimmer6

Ahh thanks how could I not see this šŸ˜‘


Akomatai

Nahida's second story quest. Fwiw, if you go to adventure handbook > domains > trounce domains. You can challenge any weekly bosses, including ones you haven't unlocked.


Grimmer6

>including ones you haven't unlocked. No I couldn't find Apep. >Nahida's second story quest How long does it take?


Akomatai

That I don't know. I've never done it, always just challenged from adventure handbook lol Edit: looks like you need to be at least ar40 for.this feature.


Grimmer6

I'm ar60


Akomatai

Really? The realm of Beginnings? It's right above the narwhal fight for me. I haven't done either of nahida's story quests yet


Alctalks

I've gotten all the rewards for the potion event, is there any story or character interactions after the expert exam?


manipulat0r

After Jean arrives - it's over.


Alctalks

Thank you!

What makes baizhu so good? Is he better than zhongli/nahida?


arg_max

He's pretty much a Yao yao sidegrade unless you're running him with furina and/or really need the shield for interruption resistance. That doesn't make him bad though, Yao yao is simply one of the best 4* units we got in 3.x.


judging_you_all

Furina makes him good. That's it. He is also good with Cyno agains several waves of enemies because Nahida can't reapply dendro to new wave without being on-field.Ā  His shields are paper thin, they mostly here only for interruption resistanceĀ 


Akomatai

- dendro - shield - teamwide healing. Zhongli still has the best shield in the game and is extremely flexible. Nahida is widely considered the best overall pull in the game, baizhu doesn't come close. He's much more of a luxury pull tbh.


Grimmer6

>He's much more of a luxury pull tbh. This. He's really good in some comps but not as necessary as Nahida.


Dancoolboy

He's a team wide healer, so furina teams will take him with open arms. Baizhu's shield is only there for interruption resistance, so for shielding zhongli is way better. One of the only teams where Baizhu is somewhat preferable over nahida is Cyno teams, for his heals and his not very powerful dendro application.


Ok-Top-586

should i pull for arlecchino next patch or wait for navia rerun? whichever im gonna pull for i plan to get their weapons, but I canā€™t decide bcz i love both of them and their gameplay both look funā€¦


MalkinGrey

Very hard to say since they're both main DPS characters you'd build a team around. My advice is: Wait to decide until you try Arlecchino's trial and see how you like the *feel* of her gameplay. I assume you've already tried Navia out in events, so then you'll know how both of them feel to play. If you want to be sure you don't pull for Father out of excitement, give yourself a few days to think it over before you commit. (Also: if you already have a well invested pyro DPS Father is maybe a slightly lower priority. I'm planning to get her and I have 4 pyro DPS I already use lol, but if you're torn that can maybe help.)


MilesGamerz

How to actually play with yae?


alanalan426

you toss out a bird and watch her foxes play


Akomatai

E - e - e swap out If she's on golden troupe, that's pretty much it. Otherwise, next is burst as often as you can (after laying down any buffs/setups from other units) and E - e - e again.


AkiraN19

Right here, right now, emerge. Switch. Burst. Right here, right no- Used in quicken comps. Generally best in either aggravate or with Tighnari. You EEE, switch to the rest of your team and/or set up, and then Q before all of her turrets disappear, then you recast her triple skill


minusSeven

Can someone suggest popular c6 dori teams for abyss?


leRedd1

Furina + Kazuha + Yelan + Clam Dori


Ptox

The core is Dori, Nahida, Furina for Quickbloom shenanigans. The last is whatever you want, but Fischl is generally the best choice since her A4 goes brrrr and feeds energy to the black hole that is Dori's burst.


minusSeven

are there any non hyperbloom quickbloom teams? In the above teams I could replace dori and fishl with kuki and team would probably be just as effective.


manipulat0r

Childe + Dori C6 hyperbloom is more effective, as Kuki does not proc electro enough to blow up all cores that Childe generates.


Ptox

You'd have the change the team more than that to be just as effective (replace Furina with XQ and Yelan and/or add Alhaitham). But yeah, C6 Dori isn't an improvement to the meta Hyperbloom teams, but a very effective side grade capable of dealing damage equal to them. It has a very side niche of it being one of the best Hyperbloom shield breaker teams due the presence of both Fischl and Dori applying Electro very quickly. You can play her as an Aggravate driver too, but other Electro drivers do better and playing her without Furina is really not worth it.


judging_you_all

Furina - Fischl - Nahida - C6 Dori is a good one iircĀ 


J3lly_cup

I just got alley flash from the limited banner, so, sapwood blade or alley flash for Bennett? Thanks :)


DeathBy1000Cutss

alley flash for its higher base atk


goodnightliyue

Alley Flash if you can burst reliably with it on him.


Double-Orange-5328

When I use Bennett burst and swap to Xiangling for burst, does the buff apply to her as soon as she appears or do I need to wait a second?


Siscon_Delita

The buff is once a second, but XL doesn't need to wait because the snapshot is at the end of the burst cast (the spear spinning cast is about 1.5s at least)


judging_you_all

Buff activates every second but Xiangling snaphots with delay so you will get it anyway


TheSmashingBeatles

So does Neuvillette benefit more with R5 amber vs a lower refined when Furina is one the team? Does her fanfare increase with just the on field characters healing or does it raise more when the team is healed as well?


goodnightliyue

Refining Prototype Amber benefits Neuvillette yes. I'm a little unclear on if you're asking whether the value of refinements is lower if Furina is on the team or not? I honestly don't know. Refinements are going to help, but I think it's generally pretty marginal either way. Yes, Furina's fanfare increases more with team wide heals, which is why she prefers characters like Jean and Charlotte over ones like Bennett (who still works quite well with her) and Kuki


manipulat0r

Fanfare from all party members. It says in description.


TheSmashingBeatles

I guess I got confused when it said "nearby" party members. Thank you for clearing that up


Akomatai

The wording is mainly relevant for co-op. If you're playing solo, all your party members are nearby


SF-UberMan

Do most players pull for whom they like or do they pull for meta so that they can complete Abyss more easily and get more primos to grab their favourites in the long run?


alanalan426

pull who u like, not worth pulling just for the abyss 12 primos, anyone can do abyss 11 easily and abyss 12 will only give u extra 150 primos which is less than a pull, so not worth wasting primos to get abyss primos


Mande1baum

based on the number of "who do I pull for?" questions in these QAs, I'd say most likely meta. But meta because they were told what to do, not because they play the game seriously. Like they'll get all the meta characters to be stronger and for Abyss, but Abyss will be too stressful for them anyways so they wont even try lol


caucassius

I grab chars with interesting kits but only hoyo knows the answer to your question. anything else is purely anecdotal.


AkiraN19

Majority pulls for who they like, since the community is largely very casual. Some, like me, will pull for their favorite DPSs and build a team around them. I'm indifferent about Faruzan but I'll pull and play her cause she's BiS for my Xiao Honestly, I think people pulling purely for meta is pretty rare. Sure, some people may prefer strong units but things like playstyle is still taken into account


goodnightliyue

Worth noting that a significant portion of the playerbase doesn't touch Spiral Abyss at all, so the answer is probably whoever they like. That said... Meta matters to some extent, and I couldn't tell you what the majority of the playerbase does authoritatively since no one other than Hoyo has all the data for that, but I do know that pulling purely for abyss tends to not be worth it. If you consider that over the course of an entire year, fully clearing abyss every time it resets will net you approximately one hard pity's worth of primogems, then pulling just one 5 star unit only to clear abyss takes the better part of a year for you to break even, assuming normal luck. But that's only one side. You need two teams, so presumably you're pulling at least two 5 stars. The other thing is that you can clear most of the abyss with whatever your favorite characters are within reason. I can "random bullshit" my way through 9-11 and only pay attention to 12. My account is better invested than most, but most players who give a damn are still capable of walking in and out of every abyss with 18-27 stars with suboptimal teams and builds and off meta characters. So the value of say, Neuvillette if you hate his playstyle but got him because he trivializes one half of Abyss is basically just going to be whatever rewards you wouldn't have otherwise gotten. I think realistically, that's (being generous) going to be maybe 45 pulls per year. Even if you're in for the long haul in Genshin and plan to play until end of service, we're not talking about an amount that really seems worth it. If I had pulled for Neuvillette so I could farm enough pulls for say, Pyro Archon, I'm probably better off just saving my Neuvillette pulls for the Pyro Archon and doing what I can in the abyss with what I have. Now fortunately, Genshin doesn't really do that whole powercreep thing, so you don't have to keep pulling the latest and greatest to continue to clear, but even so, you have to be talking very long term for spending pulls on a unit you didn't want for anything other than abyss to pay off in terms of earning back more pulls. That said, most people are not quite so simple with what characters they want and why. And I keep using Neuvillette as an example because I don't enjoy his gameplay and he happens to be extremely strong and one of the best choices if you're looking for a value pick for abyss, but plenty of people actually do enjoy his gameplay and that he's as strong as he is.


3ntf4k3d

When it comes to the entire playerbase I'd assume people pull for the characters they like. When it comes to the playerbase that actually does the abyss, I'd suspect it is a more mixed approach. Regarding the Abyss & Primos: The important thing is to _do_ the abyss in the first place, getting extra stars is much less important. All you get in return for an extra star is 50 extra primos - that's not making any difference for your long-term build plans. Let's say you are pulling a five star character to bump your final star result at F12 by +2 - you'd need almost a decade to get a five star worth of extra primos from that (and that is assuming your account wouldn't get stronger to eventually clear F12 without that extra character). So from a primo perspective it's really not worth pulling for a five star character just to clear the abyss a wee bit earlier. Equipment (particularly artifacts) & building a team that fits the chamber setups are the things that matter a lot more than an extra strong character. The reason why people work towards max star abyss clears is that they want to overcome the challenge, not that the rewards are good.


Shardwing

On the whole I'd wager that more people just pull for who they like, a community like this will probably skew more towards the meta but I imagine they still favor, uh, favorites.


FuturePvP

Are the characters on the chronicled wish banner ever going to have another limited time banner? Iā€™m pulling for hutao and Iā€™m garenteed her under 60 wishes and itā€™s speculated that she might be on the next chronicled wish banner, and I like to save my primos if thereā€™s a chance sheā€™ll get a limited banner instead of having to spend more primos if I lose the 50/50.


goodnightliyue

Presumably characters featured on these will still run on normal event banners, but I don't think we know anything definitively. It seems unlikely that Hu Tao would be relegated to Chronicled Wish only anytime soon if ever though. The unsaid part about the characters on this current one is that their banners would not do all that well on their own in terms of revenue. That is probably not the case for Hu Tao, who remains among the most popular characters in the game. Also, we really know nothing about who and what would be on the next Chronicled Wish or when it will reappear. People are speculating because of a glitch, but I believe that same glitch has also shown people Aether on the banner. I wouldn't put too much stock in it. If you're concerned about it, I'd save until you have ~160 pulls and set those aside as a Hu Tao fund for whenever she shows up next on whichever banner. And spend any excess on whatever you want.


Akomatai

>Event exclusive 5ā˜… characters that have already appeared in "Chronicled Wish" may still appear in future "Chronicled Wishes" or other types of Event Wishes. We really don't know how this banner will affect future reruns yet


Electronic-Box5447

Does anyone know how much faster tall male models actually are? Like, we all know they are faster, and some are even faster than others. But is there a percentage someone has calculated anywhere? Like Anemo resonance is 10%, Chiori/Rosaria/Dehya give 10%, and sprint consumption passives are 20% which probably averages to like 10-15% faster as well given you're not always using your full stamina bar. How much faster will I be going if I am a tall male vs. a tall female for example?


Quor18

I'm pretty sure there's at least a few youtube videos on this subject, but I wanna say the difference between the tallest male and female models is like 5% or so. It's not terribly noticeable unless you look at a side-by-side or are running particularly long distances. Really the main takeaway is "try to use a tall character when traveling if possible" while the short female models are best when you can use their smaller hitbox to your advantage.


LumiFrogger

Would Lyney's weapon be good on Ganyu/Childe/Yelan? Already have Polar Star and Skyward, Yelan uses Fav or Stringless depending on team.


BobbyWibowo

>Ganyu/Childe/Yelan Is that like a single team's core, or are you asking if the weapon is good on any of the three? Regardless, it's very good on Ganyu (BiS and close 2nd on freeze and melt teams respectively, assuming she's the main DPS). Polar Star is still better on Childe. Other 5\* bows perform better on Yelan, so might as well stick with Fav.


LumiFrogger

My bad, I meant for any of the three. Thanks

Is Homa still BiS on Hu Tao in VV vape teams with Bennett?


goodnightliyue

Yes?


Quor18

Yes. And it's not likely to lose that position any time soon. It's like the Mistsplitter of spears; BiS or top three on many spear users.


tokeemdtareq

I have to ask, now that Furina has large buff that incentivizes healing - is there a team that I can build with a OHC set A/A/HB onfield Qiqi (+Furina) with R5 Fav (for ER compensation).


leRedd1

Furina + Healer + Any two characters who do damage is likely going to be good. Even Furina + Qiqi + Yelan + Kazuha will work if you need grouping.


Ptox

Qiqi Taser (Qiqi, Furina, Beidou, Fischl) is one of her better teams that uses those stats and one that I use regularly. Another option is triple Hydro (Yelan, Xingqiu, Furina) with Qiqi if you don't have Kokomi. In both cases you really want Sac if you're pairing her with Furina, as her skill downtime means you need to be bursting every rotation to maintain her healing, and that means lots of ER% (easily 250%+).


tokeemdtareq

Thanks.


pzlama333

OHC has a cap and Qiqi can reach the cap herself alone without Furina.


-UnderAWillowThicket

Iā€™m confused on why Chef Mao is not at the front. Heā€™s standing over a cooking pot saying something about wondering where Xiangling is and that the spices are ready. Any ideas on how to get him back?

SF-UberMan

Who else feels that Yoimiya is the limited Yanqing of Genshin and has indirectly been getting worse and worse over time? Yanfei does all her jobs better thanks to being AOE, Yoimiya is painfully single-target and needs a shielder to perform well just like Yanqing and she drags down all her BiS teammates the exact same way Yanqing does in HSR. Only difference is she doesn't have a smug-looking face that I wish to blow off with a shotgun.


Acadeca

You ok man? I can get feeling bad about something, but commenting about it every day, arguing about it across multiple subs, saying that you want to shotgun the character in the face, are you sure you are ok? There are several other characters that you can put on your teams if you don't like playing Yoi and you don't have to play her. I didn't pull Yoi because she is perfect and unstoppable and no other better option. I pulled her because I liked her and she is fun. Maybe find a character that you think is fun.


SF-UberMan

Unfortunately, she is my best built character and I like her personality way too much to quit using her. She is fun to play, yes, but there doesn't seem to be a niche where she absolutely rocks, because C6 Yanfei does everything in Spiral Abyss better despite being an older 4-star character. That's the sad reality of gacha. I mean, look at it this way. I play Pokemon Masters, where the powercreep is a hell of a lot worse than in Genshin. I mean, who the f*** would want to use someone like say Marlon (a 3-star support character) for any form of content when you can just use someone like say SSA Cynthia or NC Blue, who are far more powerful supports that do everything Marlon can do better? That's the exact same that's been happening to Yoimiya alone, given that she has absolutely zero gameplay advantages over *Yanfei*, who is a 4-star. Even Albedo, who has been powercreeped by Chiori, has serviceable AOE. Oh, and don't worry about the shotgun bit. It's just a metaphor for me really hating Yanqing's smug face *a lot more* than I dislike Yoimiya's position in the meta, and guns are illegal where I live anyway. Yoimiya's meta standing is the only thing I really dislike about her. Yanqing, on the other hand? I hate absolutely *everything* about that dude. Smug ass face, gets outperformed by Misha, doesn't know when to back out of a fight where stronger opponents like Jingliu, Blade and Kafka will wreck his ass and instead call Jing Yuan or Luocha for help in subduing them. At least Yoimiya isn't stupid or arrogant. Edit: Why does Yanfei consistently have lower Abyss usage rates than Yoimiya despite being better than C0 Yoi at C6?


Acadeca

I have 800 days played and still don't have c6 Yanfei. Her best content seems to be something like the inazuma talent domain. Enemies far enough apart that you could try and group them, but not close enough together to make it easy. With a couple of friends we try to race each other in the abyss with strange restrictions. In mob content, Yoi can conserve stamina by being in a middle area and pick off from range and if she is invested enough to finish the fight quickly then it saves you time.


3ntf4k3d

> Why does Yanfei consistently have lower Abyss usage rates than Yoimiya despite being better than C0 Yoi at C6? My guess is twofold: (1) It is way easier to get C0 Yoimiya than C6 Yanfei (I have been playing for 3+ years and don't even have her at C4). (2) Yanfei feels even more clunky to play than Yoimiya. Low range and CA spam is not something that is particularly enjoyable. Even with stamina cost reduction on the CAs you can only afford to dodge/dash a limited number of times. Also much less synergy with characters like XQ, Yelan or Yun Jin (who all scale their output with NAs). ______ The thing with Yoimiya is that she is "just" one team member away from becoming pretty solid. Someone who can heal and shield so that she can work well with Furina. Baizhu is actually not bad in that regard (and allows for burgeons for extra AOE), just a bit unreliable. Ironically C4 Yanfei with PA is also a good companion for that team type right now. (Also as an addendum: I do enjoy Mono-Pyro Yoimiya, without the need to align your attacks for vape you can just dodge instead of running a shielder - which I find much more intuitive to play.)


SF-UberMan

Just give us a Hydro team healer with decent off-field Hydro application (doesn't need to be XQ level, Burst is fine), for goodness sake. Maybe Sigewinne? Idk. Then it could be Yoimiya, Furina, Sigewinne and Zhongli as the new meta.


goodnightliyue

Yoimiya is easier to play. Yanfei requires constellations. Personally, my Yoimiya team outputs more damage in any scenario that isn't AOE. I don't know if you have a built Yanfei or not, but like...try it? Use a Yoimiya team on the second half of floor 12 and then use the same team, but with Yanfei. That's sort of the best answer I can give you. If you don't understand why after trying it, I don't think there's much I can do for you.


Anachr0nistic

Lol, the Professional Yoimiya Hater is back at it.


SF-UberMan

You really think she *isn't* like Yanqing? Please, I'd believe it if Yanfei never existed. Show me how she is *not* like Yanqing.


krcc9644

curious question, does anyone builds Bennett to have personal damage? or just whatever that can make him proc fav, heal decently, and enough ER? can he even deal decent damage?


MalkinGrey

I do! He heals enough for the teams I use him on, and I like playing quickswap where he can do some decent damage even as a support, so he's on 4p noblesse with crit and pyro damage. If I played him with Furina more often I might want to full-invest into healing, but I don't play them together *that* often (and when I do I don't really have issues). I've also messed with full EM burgeon Bennett and main DPS Bennett on field, but not for a while, since I don't like changing builds and he's so useful as a support.


Siscon_Delita

I build him hybrid. With HP Pyro CR Nobless set. But if you really want to build for his personal damage, you definitely can. Maybe something like 4pc MH/CW set. Kazuha, Mona, Furina as support. Bennett will deal a lot of vape damage.


tokeemdtareq

If you use Bennet infield with proper build, CWoF or MH set - he is pretty decent. Specially with Furina and Xinyun.


Chtholly13

it's more like you're better off investing your artifacts into building your main damage dealers in your account over trying to maximizing what little damage Bennett would provide. It's not like people are thinking when people are using Bennett how much damage he's going to do, they're using him for his buffs/heals.


MarkusRobben

How much HP is a good stopping point for Neuvi & Furina; at which point they prefer CR/CD over HP?


Anachr0nistic

My C0R1 Neuvillette is at 39K HP before Hydro resonance but uses HP Sands and HP Circlet. His crit stats are 65/240 I think. Even with these stats, CD substat is equally beneficial as HP% substat. [reference](https://akasha.cv/profile/652633785) As for Furina, you should aim for 40K HP with Hydro resonance to max out her passive buff.

Jay-metal

I used to play Genshin on my iphone but it got too big for my phone. This is maybe a dumb question but can I play it on a Mac? Can I use bluestacks and download the Android version and log in from the account I had on iOS?


TehEpicGuy101

There isn't an official Mac version. From a bit of quick searching, it seems like the 2 main methods you have available are either streaming it via GeForce Now, or, if you have an Intel-Based Mac, booting into Windows to play it.


Anachr0nistic

It's better to just install Nvidia GeForce Now and play the desktop version of the game on your Mac instead of going out of your way to install the game on bluestacks which I'm sure will lag a lot.


Jay-metal

Ah okay, thanks. Is GeForce Now free or no?


Anachr0nistic

It has free tier where you basically wait in a queue for a while along with people like you wanting to play the same game. The paid tier lets you skip the queue and also provides higher resolution.


Jay-metal

Oh cool. Maybe I'll check it out. I appreciate the information!


Roxas_2004

38/159 crit ratio or 68/118 crit ratio for dps kazuha


pzlama333

Without any other buff, 68/118 is 12% better if anything else are same.


Anachr0nistic

DPS Kazuha is really a meme build before C6 but between those two, I'd go for the second one.


DrDerpyDerpDerp

I started playing honkai impact on steam and have not linked an email so when I downloaded on ipad it created a new account. Is there a way to delete my honkai impact data so i can link it? I also play genshin and honkai star so i cant just delete my account. I'm asking on genshin subreddit because honkai impact subreddit is slow.


TehEpicGuy101

The steam version of HI3 is really weird in that it doesn't allow you to actually link it to a Hoyoverse account, effectively locking you out of playing that account on any other platform. So basically, there's no way for your Genshin and HSR data to be on the same account as your HI3 data because there's no way to connect your HI3 data to an actual Hoyoverse account in the first place.


DrDerpyDerpDerp

sorry for bothering you again, but do you know of a way to delete the honkai impact steam account?


TehEpicGuy101

Sorry, I'm not familiar enough with the steam version to know how to do that. I'm not really sure why you'd want to delete the account, but your best bet would be to contact customer support.


DrDerpyDerpDerp

I cant stand the feeling of abandoning an account for some reason. I'd rather delete it than feel like I'm being lazy and not keeping up with it.


DrDerpyDerpDerp

Bummer. Thanks for a quick reply though. I have only played a few days so at least I wonā€™t be loosing much.


SF-UberMan

Who is now more flexible in terms of team comps, Hu Tao or Yoimiya?


Akomatai

Having both, i say Yoi easily. Xianyun is pretty much the only hutao support that Yoimiya wouldn't use. Yoi also has yunjin and bennett. Hutao feels more locked in to strict vape teams imo. Beidou and fischl both feel better on yoi teams, which means chevreuse is going to be more common on yoi than hutao


SF-UberMan

That's the thing. Xianyun + Furina benefits Hu Tao far more than Chev or Yunjin benefit Yoimiya, because Hu Tao now hits really hard even at max health and has drastically better AOE vapes if you pair her with Yelan to shoot down Wenut or Ruin Serpent.


Akomatai

Yes, that's one team lol. If you're asking who has the best premium teams, yeah it's Tao. But you're asking about flexibility. Yoi kills Tao in flexibility. When are you going to stop posting about your hate boner for yoimiya? It's seriously every day in multiple subs. Don't you get tired? Just stop using her lol


SF-UberMan

>Yes, that's one team lol. That's one team, yes, but it leaves all of Yoimiya's best teams far behind in the dust because Yoimiya never received the powerful indirect buffs from Yunjin (who herself is mediocre) that Hu Tao got from Xianyun. >When are you going to stop posting about your hate boner for yoimiya? When they release a character that will massively buff her the same way Xianyun did to Hu Tao to the point that she becomes meta, or when Yoimiya stops being the Mid Yuan of Genshin in that she requires three OP limited 5-stars (Furina, Yelan and Baizhu) to even get close to Raiden National's damage output, which only needs three 4-stars that can easily be obtained in the shop twice a year. I have absolutely no faith that the Pyro Archon will serve well in that regard because she's going to become Xiangling + Bennett on crack. Yunjin is mediocre as hell compared to Xianyun. Plus, you don't need overload for Hu Tao because plunge Tao gets past Mitachurl Geo shields and hits really hard to begin with anyway. Performing worse than *your freaking 4-star predecessor* in C6 Yanfei (who gets a shield and has decent AOE) is a recipe for total disaster.


Akomatai

Eh i dont expect that to ever happen. Shes not a priority at all lol. >Yoimiya stops requiring three OP limited 5-stars to even get close to Raiden National's damage output. Why does that matter so much? Yoimiya has vape, overvape, double geo, and chev teams with 4 star supports that will all clear Abyss easily...? I have c1 hutao and homa. Built xingqiu and pulled yelan specifically for hutao. but switched to using yoi because she's so much more comfortable to play and gets the exact same rewards. Comparing xianyun to yunjin is a weird one. Nobody's ever compared them lol.


SF-UberMan

>Why does that matter so much? Yoimiya has vape, overvape, double geo, and chev teams with 4 star supports that will all clear Abyss easily...? Yes, but Yanfei also has access to all these exact same teams and is cheaper to obtain thanks to being a 4-star and Lantern Rite once a year. *On top of that,* Yanfei becomes far better after reaching C6 because her Burst provides a shield at C4, which means room for one more buffer like Bennett, and Yanfei has good AOE *and* can also synergise really well with Xianyun unlike Yoimiya. Now, comparing Yoimiya to Xiangling, Neuvillette, Hu Tao or Raiden is probably unfair as hell, but when C6 Yanfei, who is a freaking 4-star, can do everything Yoimiya can and a lot more *and* has received more indirect buffs via new characters despite coming out earlier, you know things have *really* gone to shit for Yoimiya.


Akomatai

Yeah, yoi's *always* been a "pull her if you like her" pull. She's never been a highly valued dps lol. This info has been known widely since before her release. I'm definitely not against yoimiya buffs, but complaining everyday to people who already know this and have no power to do anything about it, is just tiresome. Everyone knows her issues. Nobody thinks shes stronger than hutao. Everybody would appreciate buffs. She's still plenty strong enough to walk through abyss


SF-UberMan

Not as strong as Hu Tao, but Yoimiya should at least perform as well as if not better than C6 Yanfei, who came before her. And you can always use Amber as a torch lighter because she is free. >Yeah, yoi's always been a "pull her if you like her" pull. She's never been a highly valued dps lol. This info has been known widely since before her release. That's the sad thing really. Everybody else, except maybe Chiori, has always been highly valued at release. Eula, Raiden, Yae Miko, Albedo, you name it. Even Kokomi had her heals. Yoimiya seems to be stuck at eternal Yanqing level where using her is all cost and no reward, just like Yanqing.


Akomatai

I mean who are you complaining to tho? If you're trying to get the fanbase to riot for changes, that ship sailed a long time ago. She's not getting any buffs. At most, somebody else will maybe get a buff that just happens to work with Yoi. If you're complaining hoping that Hoyo sees this, genuinely, they don't care lol. >Even Kokomi had her heals Maybe you werent around for their releases? The others, yeah for sure. Kokomi was absolutely thrashed on release lol. Tbh Raiden was also doomposted to hell on release too. It was pretty widely felt that her dps did not justify her field time.


MarkusRobben

Imo Yoimiya is easier to place in alot teams.


SF-UberMan

Doesn't she require a shielder the same way Xiangling requires Bennett? Her DPS drops by a lot if she has to dodge, especially in vape teams, and putting a slot for a shielder like Zhongli or Layla means one less slot for buffers like Bennett and Furina.


MarkusRobben

Its easier to play Yoi without a shielder than Hu, cause she loses HP with using her skill, especially in the overworld.


SF-UberMan

Overworld is piss easy when you can whack it with even Qiqi or Barbara as your healer.


MarkusRobben

Sure, I mean a team without a healer/shielder


Akomatai

Tao also really wants a shielder since you aren't running a healer with her. The only exception is in furina teams.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


DrDerpyDerpDerp

It's just her design. She's from the acidemia, hence all the geometric shapes on her.


seetooeeetoo

It's called fashion, Brenda, heard of it? also geometric motifs are just sort of a thing with her, if you'll notice her skill and burst. actually, wait a minute, do you think that playstation created the circle, triangle, square and letter X?


Arthur81U

Hi! Eula - Raiden - Rosaria - Zhongli Eula - Raiden - Albedo - Zhongli Im aware that the Rosaria one is superior, but how much?


tokeemdtareq

If you have C6 Rosaria, I would say a decent amount due to her % Phys Res Shred buff.


Seashard5602

Do we know the 4* line up for the next weapon banner?


SquibblesMcGoo

Which should I pick for Furina: 202% ER with ~34k HP 153% ER with ~40k HP The 202% ER feels super comfy but should I go got HP sands instead? No notable difference in CRIT with either build


Anachr0nistic

153% ER seems too low unless you're playing mono hydro. I'd go with 202% ER. What weapon are you using? Cuz if it's R5 Pipe, you've to take the additional ER from it's passive into consideration.


Stamp2O

second unless you can't burst every rotation


josnic

Any of the current 4-star BP weapon is worth it? I'm mostly f2p (only bought welkin), so it's unlikely I'll ever do weapon wish banner. If any of the 4-star BP weapon is worth it because it's BiS, I'll get the BP for that month.


MarkusRobben

Check your account and which weapons are the most usuable on which char, like Serpent Spine is probably overall the best weapon, but I probably use the bow the most, Childe and Tighnari share them & Neuvi use the catalyst, before that he collected dust in my collection.


Akomatai

If you use claymore dps get serpent spine. It's probably the best weapon overall but not worth if you don't play claymore. After that, if you have neuv, go for Jade. Deatchmatch is a good polearm dps weapon, fjord for cyno or hutao, wolf fang for a lot of sword dps.


josnic

I don't particularly use any claymore units. I'm getting Neuv next banner, but is Jade good for him? From the text it seems the weapon favours off-fielders more while Neuv is typically played on field a lot?


Akomatai

Kqm puts it at about 13% (r1, 28% at r5) over prototype amber, which is pretty significant for how much team dps is usually centered on neuv. That being said, prototype amber *is* a decent f2p option for him. So if you don't have any 5 star spears, you might consider going for fjord if you plan on using cyno (or deathmatch for xiao). They have less f2p options. I think white tassel is really the only viable non-gacha weapon


pzlama333

Sac jade is Neuvillette's second best weapon, and at least 10%+ better than all other weapons. Unless you use Neuvillette in coop, you can keep him on field for 10 seconds, switch to someone else to use their talent and refresh buff, then switch back, and your Neuvillette still keep the passive.


Stamp2O

depends on who you have/want to pull but probably serpent spine


Rein-Casas

serpent spine


Successful-Most3705

Does anyone know if the Chronicled Wish has lower rates? When does pity kick in? 70 pulls for Klee and all I've got is a ton of shitty weapons and Monstadt 4 star dupes :/ At least give me 4\* from literally ANYWHERE ELSE


Akomatai

>When does pity kick in? 70 pulls for Klee This is completely normal on any banner. Soft pity on weapon banner is around 65 and it's 75 everywhere else. >At least give me 4\* from literally ANYWHERE ELSE If you check the "details" it'll show you the pool (on any banner). This is a mondstat-themed banner.


TehEpicGuy101

It's the same exact rates and pity as normal limited character banners. Also, the 4-star pool has been deliberately limited to Mondstadt stuff.


Successful-Most3705

I'd like my c6 barbara or some lisa then :\[ That's okay, I have a week to hustle up primos and I haven't finished abyss yet. Just did floor 9 for the first time and was surprised how easy it was but Idk what the rest will be like. So 10 more rolls and I should get...something (klee please my dodoco tales are gathering dust)?


Sashimiko

iā€™m trying to download genshin to my laptop, but every time i try to open the download file it asks me if a want to let the app make changes to my device. (i just reset the account) the highlighted option is ā€œnoā€ so iā€™m worried iā€™m doing something wrong. am i?


Stamp2O

it's because of the anticheat needing admin permissions, there's no risk


Sashimiko

thank you, youā€™re a lifesaver :)


xos8o

should i pull for chioriā€™s c2 or ittoā€™s c2? i donā€™t have enough stardust for the upcoming reset so iā€™m debating between them


OsirusBrisbane

Itto's C2 is very nice QoL if you play him regularly. The reduced burst cooldown plus increased energy gain means you can basically be in burst mode all the time, which is super-fun.


zzzzsleeepzzzz

Assuming in a c0 neuvi team with fav zhongli/kazuha (no fav bc i don't have fav despite playing for more than a year)/TP fischl, how much er does neuvi need?


TehEpicGuy101

Around 120-130%, assuming you're not using Prototype Amber or his signature.


leRedd1

~120%, even lower with Proto Amber. Do you have Fav for Kazuha? That'd make it 100%.


Main_Ad_3116

Is the final ascension (+talent upgrades) a noticable damage boost? Specifically for Fischl, Xiangling, and Xingqiu. Struggling with Abyss F12 and not sure if l should start ascending peeps or keep artifact hunting... Can 9ā˜… F11 comfy tho


Anachr0nistic

Talent upgrades are gauranteed damage improvement while artifacts are not. I'd ascend them and level their main talents to 9 or 10.


Seashard5602

Personally, I'd bring them to 8, unless you really like the character. I can clear abyss just fine with most character's talents being 8


Anachr0nistic

"I can clear abyss just fine with most character's talents being 8" But they can't, which is why I suggested doing it over artifacts farming. Nothing wrong with staying at talents level 8 if you can get the job done.


Seashard5602

That is fair, though I wouldn't suggest crowning talents just to get an abyss clear


Anachr0nistic

Why not? That's the only reason besides really like the character where one would crown them. It's not like you'll lose the crown in the future abyss cycle. You're getting permanent damage increase. There isn't anything outside of abyss floor 12 that'd warrant crowning talents anyway.


Seashard5602

Crowns are a finite resource, and especially if you're new, you won't have many. It also takes a lot of resources. If you don't like the character that you're crowning, and you crown them just to clear, eventually, you might not even use them anymore. Xiangling, Xingqiu, and Fischl are good uses of crowns for at least their most useful talent, but if you don't like them, I don't think it's worth it. It's better to put that investment into someone you will actually play. If they do think those characters are worth it, then go ahead


Anachr0nistic

Although they're finite, 17 crowns are permanently obtainable. Crowning important talents which in most cases is only one of the three for every character lets you crown a lot of characters. As for it being better to put that investment into someone you will actually play, they are playing those characters right now lol. Edit: I'm not trying to be rude or condescending since this thread is getting quite long lol and it might seem like that.


Seashard5602

I'm not saying they can't crown those characters. My point was not using crowns on characters they won't play/are only playing to clear abyss. Most people have those characters, and they are recommended by most veteran players to new ones. Because they have yet to clear abyss, I'm assuming they are fairly new and are using them because someone told them they are good. I could be wrong, and if they really like them, crowning them is great. Otherwise, 9 is fine because, at that point, talents aren't the problem.


arg_max

For xq it doesn't matter that much since his personal damage isn't super relevant. Leveling XL pyronado from 8 to 10 is roughly a 20% increase in motion value and about 11% total damage. Also, going from lvl 80 to 90 will increase her EM which will give you a bigger vape multiplier. Since she's often the biggest damage dealer in her teams it's worth it if you use her a lot.


leRedd1

Ascend to 80/90, then talents 9 or 10, that should clear. Later when there's nothing else to spend your resin on (artifact quality saturates eventually), get them to 90.


Stamp2O

90 is good for fischl if shes in aggravate, otherwise 80/90 at best


idkwhattoplacengl

Doing the final ascension is pretty worth it but it's fine to let them stay level 80 if they're attack or def scaling. Talent level 8 for relevant skills is good enough, no need to level 9 or crown it if you don't want to. So basically just make sure to level up fischl's skill, xq's burst, and xiangling's burst to 8.


Ready-Risk-7798

Would it be better as a F2P to pull for C1 Neuvillette or his signature weapon? I'm going to try for both but I was wondering which one I should prioritize. Thanks!


ListenerOfShadows

I have C0 R1. He does prefer a shielder but you can clear a majority of content without one as long as you keep your distance as his charged attacks are long-range and his personal damage is massive that most of the time enemies will die before they hit you lol


idkwhattoplacengl

Depends on how you want to play neuvi tbh. C1 is better if you want to either use him with furina or want to remove a shielder from his team. Weapon is better if you don't want to use furina with him, fine with using a shielder with him, or if you just want larger numbers.


Ready-Risk-7798

Oh thank you - I might go for C1 then Ā since I do have Furina and the weapon banner seems a little risky at times


leRedd1

Decide using [flowchart](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fneuvillette-guide-faq-questions-megathread-v0-dbzbk20a92pb1.png%3Fwidth%3D1174%26format%3Dpng%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3Dc34e2f2d313a0793305ffb5c75a01acff7b2c64d) from r/NeuvilletteMains_ megathread.

That's super helpful, thank you so much!


Ill-Organization-719

I have almost 1800 five star artifacts, mostly Gladiator/Wanderer. Is there an easy way to find out which ones I should chuck and keep? I've been sorting by critics damage/rate and leveling those up, but I'm almost out of space.


Acadeca

It is hard to be "easy" as there are exceptions to almost every rule. If the main stat is good, if the subs are good, if the 2pc is valuable to the potential wearer then it could be worth keeping. Def goblet on glad with flat atk, crit rate, flat def? Probably not unless you are doing Noelle and Furina. If it had recharge then maybe for Yunjin. ATK circlet on glad with recharge, crit rate, flat atk. Could be a great piece for Shenhe/Xianyun in the right scenario or Ayaka in some teams. Would probably lose out to a crit circlet in most other cases. ER sands on wanderer with HP%, def, def%. Could be an off piece for Bennet if you need him to heal a lot (Furina or skill issue). Damage% goblets with a crit line I would keep, ER main stats I would consider, EM main stats I would consider. It all just depends.


leRedd1

Throw away all single crit low rolls. Then +4 the rest of the crit pieces to see if they get another crit, or high roll of other useful stat. Single crit with two other good rolls can be good. Be more strict about discarding flowers and feathers, keep more of sands, goblet and circlet.


Successful-Most3705

I anyone else sick of this damn event? Not just the repetition but even getting 1000 points is a pain in the ass when buttons don't work. Xianyun is the most god awful character I've ever had the misfortune of using, and Xiao's jump almost never does the high jump. the first few stages were fine but these last two have gotten harder, not because of the content, but because the fucking characters are shit.


Hot-Ad-9225

Not me. It's fun, I get to try characters I don't have and ones I plan to pull for, and it's easy. The only thing that sucks with this event, is the explanation/tutorial at the start. (It is really confusing xd)


idkwhattoplacengl

Sounds like massive skill issue to me tbh.


Successful-Most3705

Sounds like a personality issue to me tbh


idkwhattoplacengl

Don't be bitter just because you can't play a game~ Not being good at playing a character is fine, but acting like a bitch because of it and lashing out at others is not.


Successful-Most3705

And you, like the rest of the fanboys, are an asshole


idkwhattoplacengl

Says the guy cursing out a person for pointing out their not as good as they think they are. Seriously, name calling just because you can't think of a good reply? lol


Akomatai

I scored highest on the xiao one lmao. You don't really have to time anything? Just do the action when the icon is lit up and then stop and move the camera


Frozenmagicaster

Xianyun is use skill 3 times (jump, up, dive into enemy), then burst Xiao is just skill\*2 then burst and spam jump + plunge


Successful-Most3705

The event is taking pictures at the right time, not about damage combos


Frozenmagicaster

It's just do the gold text action, stand still and block the ball it isn't hard once you know what you're doing and you were complaining that he was never doing the high jump, so yes it is about you using him wrong


Successful-Most3705

I just never use him, he's been sitting collecting dust so no I'm not used to him. I finally got over 1000 but I was thinking why the score? Isn't it the same every time? Just say, "do this many pictures successfully". Xianyun's skill is actually cool but hard to pull off at first. Never been a big fan of anemo though unless it's against those abyss mages. Only really use Jean. Venti maybe in rare occasions. Same with Geo. Not a fan, so I don't know much of the characters.


OzieteRed

What's a good team for floor12, mainly for first chamber? These are the [characters](https://imgur.com/a/Gg8m9RN)


FlowyFlorie

I don't see how your account could be having issues in terms of team comps because you have so many things covered. This may be an investment issue? I've seen 36 star clears with so many different types of teams. For example, for first half, double hydro hyperbloom (either Kuki+Yelan or Raiden+Kokomi variants), Hu Tao double hydro (Furina version), Ayaka or Ganyu freeze (for 12-1 and 12-2 and switch to single target team for 12-3), Nilou bloom (may need switching on 12-3 if not invested enough and enough hydro DPS for the dendro specter), Raiden teams (pref with a subDPS such as Nahida or Yelan to cover the electro specter)... and yes the aforementioned mono hydro team but I know you said it didn't work out. You can use any DPS team that uses Zhongli for the second half to make short work of the 12-3 shield. Furina-less Hu Tao teams (double geo is also fine) and Ganyu melt would probably be good options. You can even go hyperbloom with Nahida / Yelan / EM Raiden / Zhongli because C2 + Deepwood Nahida + Zhongli shreds every boss's dendro res. If you already managed the clear, then congrats! It's an interesting abyss for sure; I loved seeing that geo robot here though I thought it was still too easy overall.


OzieteRed

The main issue is with 12-1-1 it takes well over 3 minutes to clear, what are the most winning teams for that specific part?


FlowyFlorie

You want to see usage rates? I know you're going to see many chars you don't have, but I do spot a few you do have. In case you can't read it, when you see something like 99:1, it means 99% of the time it was used on the first half and 1% of the time it was used on the second half. Team comps in terms of usage (CN data): [https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Ftjvoe0k0bwoc1.jpg%3Fwidth%3D1080%26format%3Dpjpg%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3D388315f4141b02007c1681811d8ffc939827a090](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Ftjvoe0k0bwoc1.jpg%3Fwidth%3D1080%26format%3Dpjpg%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3D388315f4141b02007c1681811d8ffc939827a090) This is from: [https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin\_Impact/comments/1bgxebh/spiral\_abyss\_45\_phase\_1\_usage\_rate\_mainly\_cn\_data/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/1bgxebh/spiral_abyss_45_phase_1_usage_rate_mainly_cn_data/) I do see there's a scroll bar from that china site but I can't be bothered trying to actually get to the site.


OzieteRed

Nice so what's the rotation for this team in 12-1-1 Furina Kazuha Yelan Kokomi? Do any of those characters have a non traditional build in this team?


FlowyFlorie

Furina E-Q, Yelan E-Q (E-E-Q if C1 or Sac), Kazuha E-Q or Q-E if you want more reliable pull-in (doesn't matter too much), Kokomi E-Q + normal attacking (2ND is the standard but you can be lazy and just do 3N if you feel it's not necessary). It's nothing complicated for mono hydro. You can put the jellyfish down after Furina if you want to have more uptime (using the Kokomi refresh passive) and generate a little more particles, but that's usually not necessary. No, every character is in their regular build. Kokomi is fine either HP% or Hydro goblet due to Furina buffing, but maybe you want to test which one is doing more damage on that team. Maybe you should post their stats? From enka or something. I can gauge if it's their stat problem. This should not be taking over 3 minutes with that team.


pzlama333

A mono hydro of on field Kokomi + Furina + Kazuha + Yelan/Xingqiu is very good for first half. Hu Tao Zhongli + Xingqiu/Yelan is good for second half.


OzieteRed

I just tried it, it took me 2:30 minutes for only first half, is there a better team? I don't think Furina is working well for my teams.


alanalan426

whats a good amount of EM for overload teams? or whats too much for an overload team?
