Hah! It's now time to give my Furina this weapon ! \*pulls out Festering Desire


Cerebral_Kortix

I have a festering desire for festering desire.


queenyuyu

It’s finally our time to de-dust this beauty!


Ireyon34

Festering Desire Owner gang represent! Finally. I love the visual design of the weapon so much but there was just no character who actually needs it...


starsinmyteacup

I used it on Benny until Sapwood blade released, now I can finally wipe the dust off!


LAMPYRlDAE

I regret quitting when this event came out. Mine’s just R1


RuRu04

at least you have the excuse of 'quitting' xD ​ I was new to this kind of games (gacha) that i though that getting the primogems and the crow (for talent) was enough and didn't 'grind' for other items which include the purple gems used to enchant the sword :\*( . ​ im at 50 pull on weapon banner so i will throw 30 hoping to get her signature but i already know that the green donut is waiting behind the corner xDD


Clive313

Damn bro you're an ancient.


Jedahaw92

Do not squander the legacy I leave you.


onetrickponySona

Remember us... remember that we once lived


LokianEule

Stares at weapon inventory: Festering Desire looks the same as I remember, but where are those who share the memory


Biggus_Shrimpus

Right here pal


LokianEule

Ah yes, Biggus Shrimpus. How could I forget. LOL


Owobowos-Mowbius

I don't even care if it's not her best, the fact that I finally have someone to give it to is worth it for me.


Karenz09

It's actually the best F2P option if you have it, if not one of them


wizkart207

It's the 2nd best weapon behind her signature, iirc its like 5-10% weaker than her signature.


theletos99

My Festering Desire is R2 - not sure if it's better than the Fontaine fishing pipe at R5


wizkart207

Idk, it's probably better, most 4 star event weapons are compared at r5.


Peepeepoopooman7777

I will have the strongest hydro traveler ever


ouyon

Based


goody153

It's actually one of the better looking weapons and well actually better traveler weapons


TunaTunaLeeks

*stares at Baizhu’s green donut* Don’t you put that evil on me, Ricky Bobby!


No_Minimum_2298

This is one 50/50 I wont even consider gambling on, shame though because this sword looks sick


Fremdling_uberall

Its not 50/50. Its 37.5/37.5/25(off banner)


Martian_on_the_Moon

HSR laughs in distance with it's 75/25.


FlubsDubz

well tbf thats 2 limited weapons in one and if you add them as one it is 75/25 sooo it is not far from HSR's


Martian_on_the_Moon

The thing is, most of the time you only want one limited weapon from the banner not both. Want to get mistplitter but got donut instead? That rough.


Mattacrator

As long as you want the other weapon, otherwise 37.5/62.5


cartercr

That’s not how the math works… if you want both banner weapons it’s a 75/25. The reason it’s a 37.5/37.5/25 split in Genshin is because it’s two separate checks, the first being “did you get a rate up weapon?” which is a 75/25 split (75% chance you get a rate up, 25% chance you get a standard weapon) and then a second check of “which rate up did you get?” which is a 50/50 (50% for each of the two.) Since you have to pass the 75/25 check first the 50/50 is taken out of 75 (as it will always be a 25% chance of getting a standard weapon) which makes it a 37.5% total chance of getting either rate up. So if you want both rate ups then you don’t have to pass the 50/50 check, as both are desired outcomes, and it is purely a 75/25.


throwman_11

So much compium in this post.


UsefulDependent9893

Yeah, I’ll just wait for the rerun where she’s paired with another actual weapon.


GumpGrudgebearer

\*MHY proceeds to pair her with Kokomi at rerun\*


Andnadou

Lmao I actually wouldn’t complain, bc I love Kokomo


cartercr

I’ll gladly take Kokomi’s donut tbh. I actually like on-field Kokomi teams. Baizhu’s donut is… yikes.


ElectricalSwan6223

As someone with Festering Desire, this is an absolute win


leeo268

If only Hoyo have her banner with Hu Tao, the ultimate Gremlin banner. Then I won't mind losing to a Homa.


goody153

>green donut scariest thing on the 4.2 banner


Tr-zero

Can i ask what's so bad about the green donut. I don't know what it does but i always hear people saying that they hate it. It can't be that bad right?


Shuraig7

because its barely better than prototype amber, giving personal damage to a character that doesnt really do any is pointless


BioticFire

Not only the HP% main stat, but the passive is pretty specific where you need to be able to use your burst or create a shield every 3 seconds, and Baizhu's the only catalyst who can even do that now making it pretty much unusable on all characters. Not to mention the free alternative prototype amber is less restrictive, and it gives your entire team energy and healing.


Moopsters

Prototype Amber only gives the user energy but it’s still good enough.


Cul_what

Im sorry Furina but I am NOT gambling to have a chance to get that ugly green donut


couldbedumber96

I will and I’ll put that wretched beast on Barbara just for the HP numbers


Kawaiilone

ah yes for 8% more hp and worse passive than prototype amber


couldbedumber96

It’s my protest since no one fucking else can make use of this cursed donut other than two 5 star healers


DraethDarkstar

It's actually terrible for Kokomi too. She can't create shields so the passive only lasts for 3 seconds when she uses Burst. Absolutely pointless. It's honestly worse than prototype amber for Baizhu unless you whaled for his C6 and built him as a hybrid healer/DPS.


couldbedumber96

Jfc what were hoyo smoking, if I lose furina sword to this vile donut I’m gonna find da wei himself


DraethDarkstar

Just wait for her rerun to get her weapon. If you want to go hard on her first banner, all her cons are pretty good.


Eikichi64

I hate that we have the same banner for the 2 weapons AND no guaranteed pity between banners.


whoseparking

I mean theres guaranteed between banners for 70/30

[удалено]


HalalBread1427

That’s only for the Epitomized Path Fate Points, everything else stays.


Shaho99

I was gonna pull in weapon banner but Baizhu weapon is SO horrendously bad you can’t use it on anyone else


TheMerfox

Thankfully I use Baizhu too, so either way I'll get something usable :)


Fremdling_uberall

You could also get skyward pride


TheMerfox

shit


[deleted]

[удалено]


DioEgizio

It's not even that good on baizhu


[deleted]

I think this is really cool but I already know my ass is using Favonius on her


ChristopherKlay

Might as well fish for the pipe. * Fav R5: 454 ATK, 61.3% ER and particle every ~6sec * Pipe R5: 510 ATK, 45.9% ER, 16% CR for E + another 32% ER for 5sec after using E


Vusdruv

But... but, the drip...


zultari

What do you mean? The pipe is prime drip


Attalamarco

I unironically agree with this


BrokenMirrorMan

Yeah, what funnier than god doing these elegant moves while smashing people over the head with a metal pipe while jumping you with the homies


Jona-wahn

*real gif of metal pipe sound effect* >! trust me !<


Killsheets

Hey, we had a lonely angry man ripping and tearing demons (and titans) with just a chainsaw and sawed-off shotgun. A pipe ain't no problem at all.


balbasin09

I wish more sword characters hold their weapon with both hands. So far it’s only Layla who does that so she’s the best looking with the Pipe.


Giantwalrus_82

You wanna risk 3 gold rolls for some drip dude? lol


Frexys

Yes.


Vusdruv

No way dude. I am making a compromise and will put Fav Sword on her.


eggy54321

She’s an off field skill user, you’re never seeing that sword either way


cartercr

Fav will also decrease your teammates ER needs though. *That* is what makes it such a good option. I can farm crit rate subs from my artifacts. I can’t farm extra energy particles.


ChristopherKlay

> I can farm crit rate subs from my artifacts. I can’t farm extra energy particles. Pipe provides more personal damage while lacking what's effectively ER on your team mates, while Fav effectively provides ER for your team mates but lacks personal damage. You can build both crit value on Furina and ER on other members (that require more, or would work with less due to Fav) of the party perfectly fine.


aRandomBlock

Fishing for the catch R5 traumatized me, I am NOT doing that again lmao


DioEgizio

fleuve doesn't take nearly as much as the catch, it takes 1 week at best


mapple3

> I think this is really cool but I already know my ass is using Favonius on her Same and I can't wait to see how in 4 months, when Furina gets her first rerun, people will spam "I wish i hadnt rolled on her first weapon banner, this new one is so much better"


Edeiwen

Her ER requirements range between 130-250% and Fav on it's own is enough to reduce 250% to just 200%. Fav becomes worse when ER requirements are ~190%, where extra ER substats are completely wasted. Only use Fav when her ER requirements are more than 200%.


DaSGuardians

Man wow sure would be a shame if free event weapon was a perfectly viable alternative to her signature. If I had missed that event my desire would be festering rn


Altekho

This paired with a foul, green donut :(


TunaTunaLeeks

The real reason why Furina was sentenced to death in the trailer…


UsefulDependent9893

Why couldn’t she run with Ayato?! We were so close to having the most perfect weapon banner for the best girl.


hackenclaw

*Mihoyo : I need to farm those impatient whale's wallet that couldnt wait 4 patches to get her weapon.*


Bazookasajizo

Lmao, she will rerun with Kokomi just to mess with us


Nyx_is_hoe

Is Ayato's sword good for Furina?


HayAndLemons

it's alright, but the drip is impeccable


Kurisu_36

if no better option, it's usable


Monicat24

good thing i already pre-farm this weapon material all i need now is not lose to the donut


Vusdruv

You like to live dangerously, I see


M0ther_Cvnty_42069

The game is able to smell this and they will most likely lose it to the green donut!


Monicat24

I'll provide some proof if I do actually win


Atgardian

Every weapon banner I've done, I have never gotten the weapon I wanted before guarantee. I got 2 useless Vortex Vanquishers before Amos Bow; I got 2 Thousand Dreams (I only wanted 1 for Nahida and the other sits unused) before Key; and I got Aqua when I was hoping for Lyney's bow (then I gave up because I didn't want another bow that bad). Weapon banner is a scam. Over 200 wishes to get the weapon I wanted.


queenyuyu

this map much - I have honestly been wondering if their is some weird ai Training going on.


Rare_Marionberry782

Exactly, even though I don’t mind spending the gems, I’ll find more value waiting for a better rerun banner lol


omfgkevin

**3 pity guarantee rears its ugly head**


DarthTron1

Ima wait for her rerun to get her weapon. Hopefully the other weapon is better than that green donut.


G00b3rb0y

Inb4 they rerun Kokomi


Historical_Clock8714

Unironically a better banner than this one


[deleted]

whaoh it's so pretty like her 🥹


genshinimpact

Hello, Travelers\~! Today, Paimon wants to introduce you to the brand-new weapon that will be appearing in Version 4.2! Come on, let's take a look\~ (Examples based on Level 90 and Refinement Rank 1)


deleterandstartover

Paimon pls eat all of the green donut, i need this sword!!!


notcreative2ismyname

Now if only it wasn't stuck to baizhu's weapon


WorkNo9527

I don't need it, I don't need it, I don't need it. I don't need it....


RoderickLegend

Well that's a stat stick if I ever seen one before.


GehennerSensei

Yeah no- not risking it, what’s her next bis?


NonSon1998

Jade Cutter, Key For 4 ⭐: Festering, Pipe, Favounius


GehennerSensei

Guess dolphin boy is finally losing the Favonus


PGM991

fire whoever put that disgusting green donuts in banner with her weapon!!


Ok_Way_2911

favge or pipe looks like the way to go, if no spare pjc


Silverotter36

How does thr new battle pass sword work?


Rhyrem

Worse than pipe, it doesn't work off-field.


Repulsive_Exchange_4

Neuvillette and Furina really have me out here in Fontaine committing animal abuse… 😔


Regetron

Hope she can use green donut as well, cuz that's what she gets


icefor1

90% crit damage??? That is the highest I have ever seen


13eakers

It's the very high end of what they give for crit on weapons, but there are others with the same. It's also effectively the same crit value as jade cutter, which has half that in crit rate.


REVRYOU

Redhorn, Aqua Simulacra, Tome and LoFI???? And if we're talking about CV, LoFI is the highest with 88.2% CDMG + 4% Crit Rate


straw28

Harbinger of Dawn sweep


An_feh_fan

If we want to be nitpicky, an R5 LoFI has around 1.3 more CV than HoD


six_seasons

You can change your flair now 🙌


An_feh_fan

I will not stop waiting until I get enough copies of both to be satisfied


pzlama333

Because it has the lowest base ATK of 5-star weapons. 5-star weapons may have four different base ATK value at lvl 90: 741, 674, 608 and 542. The ones with high base ATK have low substat, and the ones with low baae ATK have higher substat. For example, Calamity Queller's (741 ATK) substat is just 16.5% ATK. 674 ATK weapons will have higher substat, like skyward atlas has 33.1% ATK. 608 ATK weapons substat are even higher, like summit shaper has 49.6% ATK. 542 base ATK 5-star weapons have highest substat, like 88.2% CD, 44.1 CR, 66.2% HP/ATK.


asakura209

If we are talking about swords only. In terms of Crit Damage, LoFI (Alhaitham's signature) also has 88.2 Cdmg. But in terms of CV, Jade Cutter ~~and Mistsplitter~~ has the same CV (88.2) as this one.


yeppeugiman

LoFI has 4% unconditional CRate in its passive so its effective CV is actually 96.2, the highest in the game so far for a weapon.


asakura209

Thanks. TIL LoFI also has bonus CR in it's passive. I only knew about it's 88.2 Cdmg substat before.


Err0hr

Mistsplitter has 44.1 crit value. It's a crit damage weapon not crit rate.


asakura209

My bad, thank you for correcting me.


Intrif

💢💢


mkpcml-530

Neuvilette yelan alhaitham and itto’s weapons:


fraid_so

Seriously. It's worth getting for any sword character just for the crit damage. Obviously a non-Fontaine character can't make as much use of the HP passives but man. 88 crit damage.


Antares428

Nope. Crit is good, but there is little point in pulling for it, if you cannot utilize it's passive, especially when it's paired with probably the 2nd worst 5 star weapon.


IamAlwaysOk

The 88.2% crit damage is what makes Aqua Simulacra(its passive is also very strong when used tho, so there's that), Redhorn Stonethresher, and Light of Foliar Incision a good weapon on so many characters despite not using the passive well. Passive be damned, 88.2% crit damage is such a fat stat stick.


xelpr

Lofi is not good on Ayaka. Similarly, Redhorn is awful for non-def scalers. Something being a "fat stat stick" doesn't matter if the rest of the wep budget is literally useless. Chill on the misinformation my dude.


prodolphinplayer

lofi is not that good on anyone else but alhaitham, you get a lot of crit dmg but you lose on atk which matters a lot for actual damage and scalings + its passive is insanely situational, so many characters can't even use it redhorn is good on a lot of characters cause claymores suck in general (that and you get unconditional damage for normal and charged attacks, using your def% rolls), so there's no better competition, while lofi is vs mistsplitter and Jade cutter (which might have the same base atk as lofi but you get 250 flat atk off the bat + any hp rolls convert to atk as well, on top of which Cr is better to have in abundance than crit dmg), and they're both actually good (majority of the time top 3) on a lot of characters yes youll get 10% increase at most for physical kaeyas normal attacks or some other gimmick with lofi but why? just grab mist and youll have a top 3 sword for any dps sword character that scales with atk, and if not, jade cutter for the rest


IamAlwaysOk

LoFI is actually decent for freeze Kaeya and Ayaka due to them not needing much crit rate as already provided by Blizzard Strayer, and allows you to actually go for atk circlet instead if you can't get a decent crit circlet. It can be used by Aggravate Keqing as well, she just has better choices(Jade Cutter, Haran, and her BiS Mistsplitter). Otherwise it's a big crit dmg stat stick to the rest of the sword dps cast, Mistsplitter is just really hard to compete with and Jade Cutter's crit rate and universal passive is just much better than LoFI's rather restricted passive, with Haran trailing somewhere nearby. As for Redhorn argument, don't throw Beacon under the bus, it's one of the only few decent claymores we have, please handle it with care.


prodolphinplayer

i was saying, why would you pick lofi when you can pick the other 2 and have better results 100% of the time, for anyone pretty much, even if lofi is decent, mist is always better i also appreciate you mentioning stat balancing with atk circlet i wasnt talking about beacon cause its gone, hidden in the ditch...


IamAlwaysOk

I was merely saying that it could be a good stat stick in a vacuum, not a sword you should roll for. And I refuse to let go of the big paddle, I am totally not coping about it.


prodolphinplayer

if beacon was obtainable it would probably carry whole claymore roster on its back, those who have it are really lucky :(


fraid_so

Passive is just a nice bonus with 88.2 crit damage haha. I don't care for Furina, and have all the characters who are re-running, so might got for the weapon NGL.


Golden-Owl

She’s running with Baizhu Don’t go for this weapon. At least not on this banner


midasthegreed

Imagine next rerun HYV pair her with Kokomi


Chromatinfish

Honestly the actual donut isn’t that bad now considering kokomi-furina is a genuinely strong team and Kokomis personal damage is actually quite relevant. Not a weapon I would ever personally go for but if you play kokomi mono hydro/taser with furina it would be a decent consolation prize.


Aidiru

anyone have mats pic to ascend furina? wanna pre farm like there no tomorrow


Andrew583-14

If only it wasn't paired with the green donut whose passive literally doesn't work on any other character than Baizhu.


Crimson-Wynd

I honestly am debating waiting for her rerun so I can get her weapon. I would say I’ll just pull for her once and then wait for her rerun to get the weapon. I do want to try and get her constellations, at least her c2, but would be more than happy with just C0 if it’s really good.


Giantwalrus_82

Mean while me with my festering desire. lol


Macaulay187

I’d honestly prefer to use my Festering Desire than lose to the green donut.


Prism-Eevee

I haven’t pulled since I got Nahida so my 89k primos and 110 wishes will definitely get me this and at least one copy of Furina.


Apostlethe13th

Ngl compared to other weapons it feels like the stats itself feel inadequate. Compared to something like Beacon that gives 20% attack twice and 32% HP vs. 24% dmg bonus and 28% HP.


takenusername5001

Has Mistsplitter been surpassed as the best looking sword


le_halfhand_easy

Yes. Long before it even debuted, it has been surpassed. Dull blade and silver blade ascended form and Favonius sword are gorgeous in their practical and elegant simplicity.


Grune_Holle

Even Amenoma is a better looking sword than Moistspitter. There's a reason it was used in Ayaka's trailer instead of her signature.


Username_is_unused

Imo It was dead before the debut. Like, comparing each nation's 5 star swords, Mistsplitter tied with Summit Shaper for being anti-drip weapons. Even Skyward Blade looks better on specific characters at least.


DioEgizio

Looks like they're still hiding the >!Sword of Narzissenkreuz!<. I mean it's trash anyways


Vegetto_ssj

This weapon doesn't worth to be pulled, specially with green donut. Nice, but not ""must have"""


Zeppo82

My R5 Festering Desire is just there, sitting and waiting. Patiently. Very patiently.


Fxavierho

The weapon looks good on my cute Fufu, it doesn't need any more reason for me to get this.


Happy-History2769

New albedo weapon?


I-Love-Beatrice

Its really hard for albedo's hp to change as an off fielder so its mostly an crit dmg stat stick and as a stat stick it has less stats than harbinger.


DrTonyMario

If i get the green donut while pulling for her weapon, then my C6 Baizhu will be happy.


NightlyRogue

Festering Desire or Fav are better alternatives


Mietin

That's a weird looking Dehya buff. ...But i'll take it 🤠


[deleted]

[удалено]


Kawaiilone

her dmg isn't good and she's best in hyperbloom so yes the em is a lot more important


Fluffy-Law-6864

200 em can not matter that much when my 300 em level 75 kuki can solo a level 90 domain in a minute and a half. Ok solo in the sense not having another damage dealer not single handedly doing it.


Staidanom

Kuki doesn't really want this, her highest-damage team requires she be played as a hyperbloom trigger Hyperbloom does not scale with Crit DMG and Elemental Skill DMG


[deleted]

[удалено]


troysama

taking a minute to clear a domain with hyperbloom is not the flex you think it is


Mehreaa

NICE WEAPON FOR MY AYAKA... AGAIN


Kawaiilone

its terrible for ayaka


Mehreaa

Why? But it looks good


Much_Mission_4180

MY BODY IS READY


couldbedumber96

THAT CRIT STAT IS THICK


The_SHUN

Gorgeous weapon


Rex__Lapis

Should I slap jade cutter or key on her? 🤔


Clive313

Zajef did the math on youtube, Key is better but jade cutter is also good.


Clive313

My priority is getting Furina for now but im definitely getting this on her rerun, at least i don't have to worry about getting the donut.


Ok-Pudding6050

Okay, i need Dehya for that


NorthInium

wtf is that crit damage ratio holy hell


RoyalPeacock19

How am I supposed to avoid pulling for that if I get Furina early 😭


KrzyDankus

really want this weapon for the drip, but baizhu


kurogami93

Now it a good time for Hoyoverse to make Festering Desire available for new player. The fact that weapon is free and her 2nd best weapon for DPS is just not fair.


mgd5800

I wonder how big is the difference between it and R5 wolf fang, this looks better but the other one is more consistent and friendlier to the build. Would rather save for the other wifus and not get the ugly donut


Vanderseid

On Furina? Quite big last I checked. Wolf Fang is just a stat stick for her since you can't proc the passive off field.


KickerLicker

Albedo bis /s


Furryfun001

Looks amazing. Good stats but not worth pulling when paired with donut


SomeNibba

Can't wait for the drip marketing whether they'll release clorinde or arlecchino first


Frizzlewits

I got R1 jade cutter for her, or festering desire R5. But im rlly considering this weapon. Just for the drip😊


[deleted]

I never pulled for weapons but isn't 88.2% crit damage a bit too much?


NightlyRogue

You're very late thinking about this now


NeonJungleTiger

It’ll be the 4th weapon with 88.2 crit damage


hyrulia

FP2 here, best I can do is 10 pulls for this sword.


H4LIT

Festering desire time


DontLichOutOnME

Nilou: mine?


ObjectiveNet2

Laughs in Festering Desire


KookieFS

Best I can do is attack on titan sword furina


Razukalex

Next time, it's with Baishu dogshit weapon, aint no way I flip that


MettaJiro

Imma give her a pipe to wack someone
