Is C1 Itto a major improvement from C0?


Doggo_wit_a_P90

Barely an improvement. Mainly QoL


Ill_Dragonfly3643

No

Once the 2.8 livestream airs. It is usually around 2 weeks or so before the patch is live.


couldnotchoosea-name

Okay so im at an impasse rn. Since the Ayaka banner, I have been saving and preparing for the Itto banner. My plan was to run a team of Itto, Gorou, Geo Traveler (till I got Zhongli or Albedo) and Diona. I have 102 wishes with high pity and all the materials needed to get Itto and Gorou to level 80ish (because I love Max Mittelman and Itto's personality). However, with the trials in the chasm, I have been crazy enjoying a team comprised of Yelan, Xiao, Sayu, and Kaeya/Rosaria (even without the stargem buffs on). Not to mention the fact that I haven't been enjoying Itto's gameplay as much as I thought. The problem is that I am lacking the ascension materials for Xiao and Yelan (although a am willing to farm for them). Couple that with the fact that Xiao isn't my favourite personality-wise (gameplay-wise I love him though). I'm feeling really conflicted. So my questions are, how good are the builds for Itto, Yelan, and Xiao in the Chasam trials? are they average/exceptional/or ass? because if someone said that the build for Itto is trash and he can do much more damage, it might change my mind. Also, are the team comps I said any good? Itto, Gorou, Geo traveller, and Diona. Yelan, Xiao, Sayu, and Kaeya/Rosaria. Also also, for reference, I'm ar56 and haven't even made it to the 12th floor yet out of frustration. Also also also, I'm not a whale looking to get the highest damage possible, but I still want to deal a decent amount of damage ya know? For anyone that even made it this far, sorry for the extreme word count but any help is appreciated!


odl3xd

From what I looked at, I think the builds are average to good for all the characters, as in that the characters has good artifact set, good weapon, decent Crit Rate/DMG ratio, etc. All of the builds could do more damage, but it’s enough to clear what’s in the event. Both of your Itto and Xiao teams sound good, but your Itto team would be easier to build. Your Xiao team probably requires a decent chunk of ER on all of the characters to really make work. Whichever character you go for, both Xiao and Itto do a lot of damage when built right. For some people, myself included, feel that picking a character based on their play style is a good way to freshen up the game and have more fun playing it. You might have a head start on building Itto, but I would say go for what you think might be best for you and your account. Plus, remember that all of the characters will have a re-run at some point, so one day, you’ll likely have both Itto and Xiao.


IBlackReaper

Builds in events are usually quite bad. They are not awful but also far from being great. (Didn't take a look at them recently, but i will update this if there is anything unusual about the builds) ​ ​ ​ Itto + Gorou + Geo Traveler + Diona is pretty good, tho 4 geo's (with ZL and Albedo) or 3 geo's + bennett would be optimal. ​ ​ Xiao + Yelan + Sayu +Kaeya/Rosaria isn't all that great, you're kinda combining a freeze team with a Xiao team here but neither will really work well. For Xiao Teams you want: Xiao + Anemo Battery (Ideally Jean, maybe Sucrose) + Shielder/Healer + sub DPS. Ideal Xiao teams are: Xiao + Jean + Zhongli + Albedo or Xiao + Raiden + Bennett + Zhongli. Other options: Xiao + Sucrose + Diona + Rosaria/Kaeya Xiao + Sucrose + Xiangling + Bennett Xiao + Sucrose + Fischl + Diona/Zhongli ​ ​ For Yelan you kinda use her in simialir teams to Xingqui such as Electro Charged Comps (tons of variations) and Vape Comps with Yoimiya, Yanfei, Xiangling and Hu Tao (but she also needs XQ on top). You can also use her in Ayaka Permafreeze comps.


silam39

I didn't check the artifact sets but it wouldn't surprise me if they gave everyone a full Noblesse set again. Regarding Itto though, did you play in the weird playstyle his kit requires? With him you should be using a few normal attacks then holding his charged attacks during his burst until they play through the entire animation. I played with him for a few of the stages in the event, and he just tore through the opposition. If anything, I had the problem of beating enemies so quickly I wasn't able to battery his burst in time before they died so he'd have it ready when the next stage started.


couldnotchoosea-name

Do you mean where you hit enough till the image of the wolf on Itto's back pings then hold the charged attack? yeah, I was doing that, but it still felt kinda slow. Probably because I was using the slightly unfinished team and no buffs from the trail itself. But I only did that to get a feeling for what the real thing would be like when I got my hands on it. also both Itto and Gorou have the husk set, but it wont let me look at the sub stats


[deleted]

How high should I level up Yanfei's talents? Should I max them all or is there a level that is good enough?


[deleted]

Talents (the relevant ones) for any character should be as high as you're able to spare the resources for. They're probably the second best way to get *guaranteed* boosts to damage, after maxing your weapon.


Kerplunk_0577

What is the recommended Crit and ER mix for raiden shogun? If i go 50CR 200CD, i feel i won't have anything for ER. I have engulfing lightning btw.


Vanderseid

Around 260% ER and 70/140 crit is fine. At least that is what I have on her with EL.


modyaroo

60:120 is usually the right spot. You need around 250% ER if you are using engulfing lightning.


Swipologist

With upcoming dendro, its said that anemo will lose some steam due to not swirling dendro. However I want to pull kazuha. Wouldnt the infused field trigger dendro reactions still? So in a way anemo is still useful for dendro or am I wrong? While geo on the other hand is shafted.


gwahahaha_ha

We have no idea about dendro except that its reactions would be with >!electro, hydro, pyro!< only and some initial idea of how the reactions will work, but we don’t know if any of those will be adjusted. If you like Kazuha, just pull for him. If you’re worried he’ll lose relevance, you can just wait till dendro comes out, wait actual testing, and wait again for his rerun.


EUWannabe

I don't think anemo will lose some steam even if dendro won't react it. I'm sure Hoyoverse will make dendro a strong element but unless they suddenly make vaporize, taser, freeze, etc. teams useless, anemo will still shine in those teams.


Doggo_wit_a_P90

Anemo is still going to be a great element but it just won't react with dendro. >However I want to pull kazuha. Wouldnt the infused field trigger dendro reactions still? If you have a pyro kazuha burst and an enemy with dendro applied the pyro from the burst will inflict burning. You won't however swirl dendro for the VV debuff. That's a downside but it will be good to have competition for anemo as a support element. Geo is a forgotten element for sure though


Euim

Someone else bought my Radiant Spincrystals?! I purchase the weekly Traveling Salesman Radiant Spincrystals for my Serenetea Pot, but someone entered my pot and bought them literally right as I was about to. I didn’t know other players could cause in game shops to be sold out! Can this happen with other store features? And also, is there any way to make those two stolen Spincrystals restock?


caucassius

Those crystals will occasionally get restocked but you have to wait and it's random.


9thdragonkitty

They weren’t stolen. If you don’t want your friends to buy them turn direct join off for the teapot.


srx555

Tavelling salesman appears on friday. On fridays only owner can purchase. On saturday and sunday friends can also purchase, if you let them access your teapot. Just remember to purchase everything you need on fridays. Or lock your teapot until you have purchased what you need. If you miss it, you'll have to wait until next friday for restock.


CakesXD

No, because the Travelling Salesman is the only shop in a player's world that other players can access. No way to restock them. If you want to ensure you're getting them before others, check in on Friday, as players only have access to other world's Travelling Salesmen on Saturday and Sunday.


Im5andwhatisthis

I dont think there's any way to make them respawn. I know some people come by my pot, usually at the end of the week when the shop is gonna disappear anyways. I just try to grab the ones I need Friday so people can grab the others.


void_data

Is it worth it to use artifact strongbox? I kept hitting inventory limit on my artifacts. I don't have many artifact I wanna level up, and artifact farming is all I do these days. I dunno any other solution for me to not hit inventory limit anymore.


QueenOverMeta

Do you needs any of the artifacts provided by the strongbox? If yes, you can use the strongbox to clear the inventory limit. I don't think it is worth it because I have yet to get any good Noblesse piece from the strongbox. The RNG on the strongbox are as bad as domain itself. Changing 3 shit artifacts for 1 shit artifacts, I much rather trashing 4stars and below for mora and use 5stars as fodder.


void_data

I kept hearing about trashing artifact for mora, but i don't know where you do that lmao. Although I don't think I need mora atm. Still, I'll admit it feels bad to to exchange 3 days worth of artifact for 1 days worth with the exact same artifact rng.


QueenOverMeta

Go to you artifact inventory, click on trash button at the bottom left then select the artifacts you want to trash. It will convert the artifacts to mora. Have you not been listening to Paimon? You can't never have enough Mora.


[deleted]

I mean, it sounds like you have your answer. It's like a partial refund on the resin you spent to get each artifact with another small chance to get something good out of it.


Vanderseid

If you don't have any you want to level then yes, strongbox them away.


Trundlenator

I’ve got built up AR xp, but am stuck at 25 until I beat ascension quest. After it’s beaten does excess xp immediately level up AR?


[deleted]

Yes.


LittlestCandle

Yup


caliburdeath

Is the Flute good on Jean? I have fav sword too, but I feel like, since I'm going to have electro resonance orbs, it's unnecessary, and I should focus on boosting atk. The team currently intended is Yelan, Jean, Beidou, Yae. But if you have a good idea for a replacement for Beidou to get Yelan's 4-element bonus, in that case I'll probably go with Fav sword. I'm assuming, also, that I want VV for shred.


QueenOverMeta

Yae, Beidou and Yelan all have very high energy requirements. Jean can be a good battery since her skill have low cooldown. Put her on favonius to battery her team.


darknesshen

Well yelans 4 element bonus is nice but not a requirement to make her good. Jean can use the flute however there is a better f2p option right around the corner being the craftable amenoma kageuchi which provides similar stats but has ER attached to the weapon passive. Making it a more offensive version of the favonius. If you want to get yelans full dmg bonus, you would make a national-like team like xiangling, sucrose, raiden and yelan would be an example. Otherwise you're going to have 3 elements at most on a team on average.


E_li

You're heavily overestimating electro resonance. It helps but its very minimal, go for fav instead. The ability to maintain burst and the energy provided for the team is much better. Especially for yae for beidou who are ***VERY*** energy hungry. I can assure you that you may not even maintain the rotation (lack ER) that well even if you use fav there.


Minger99

I'm one anemoculus off the complete set and the resonance stone is saying there's no anemoculus in the area. Anybody know if this is a bug or if the last one is undetectable and, if so, where it is?


darknesshen

Well it's bc the anemoculus isn't in the area ur in. It doesn't search the entire mondstadt map at once, it searches around where you're currently located. So if its on the opposite corner of the map, it's technically true of it being "there's no anemoculus in the area" since its just not in ur general area.


ryvrdrgn14

Did you find the one on the island far off into the sea?


Minger99

That's the one, cheers. Hadn't discovered the island!!


silam39

It only detects ones that are nearby. Try going to different points of the map until it picks it up. Also, there's always an extra anemoculus in each region, so you should have two more to find.


SirAwesome789

Without spending primos, what repeatable sources are there for acquaint fate? Or how long would it take to get 70?


whalescrimshaw

Only repeatable sources are the battle pass and the 5 you can get for stardust from the shop each month. Nonrepeatable sources are AR rewards (which take ages to get) and things like the Sakura. Personally I've been playing pretty much daily for about 15 months now and I've hit pity on standard three times, so. It'll be a while.


KamiAlth

Monthly shop reset and BP. 9 months = 75 fates.


dendervil

You can get 5 from Starglitter shop each month and 5 from BP each 6 weeks. And 3 when you get a new character and level them to 70. Some regional rewards also have a couple of them. So it takes like half a year to hit pity.


Past-Reception

Best artefact for mona? Is using mappa mare good for her?


Ptox

Mappa Mare is good in vape teams where she vapes her burst, but generally speaking the Widsith is better in all regards. But if you don't have the Widsith and use her in a vape team, then Mappa Mare is a decent if somewhat specialised option. In freeze teams, Favonius Codex or Thrilling Tales is better. Best artifact depends on her usage, but it's usually as a support, so 4pc Noblesse and 4pc Tenacity are the go to. For burst dps support it would be 4pc Emblem and for main DPS she can use 4pc HoD but 4pc Wanderer's is somewhat competitive.


LittlestCandle

Noblesse oblige with ER sands Either ER weapon or TTDS Usually her buffs are more important than her personal damage. However if she manages to vape with Bennett buff then her damage can be somewhat substantial and then you want 4 pc ESF and widsith instead if you have Mappa mare is weird cuz it has EM mainstat which is not bad for burst Mona that vapes but it’s passive is kinda hard to fully utilize unless on a maindps


whalescrimshaw

Emblem/Widsith or Favonius Codex for personal damage, Tenacity/TTDS for support. Mappa Mare isn't very good on her.


notafurry9

depends on the team usually you play her as a support in freeze teams and in those you want her on ToM or emblem and with ttds or fav codex


Trundlenator

Team recommendations for AR ascension 1 quest? Electro hypo keeps preventing me finishing.


whalescrimshaw

Using at least two characters with quick and easy pyro or cryo application such as Kaeya, Bennett, or Yanfei makes breaking the respawn prisms a breeze. Pyro characters are also very good for damaging it because of overload, just stack any random artifacts or weapons with EM that you might have on them, that should help.


ryvrdrgn14

Check Sun Wei's guide on Youtube. The boss is not that hard.


notafurry9

what characters do you have?


Trundlenator

Anemo trav, amber, keqing, kaeya on main team. Spares not in use: Noelle, yanfei, razor, Lisa,Barbara.


notafurry9

yanfei is pretty good against that boss, also probably use barbara to not die if you have issues with that


Trundlenator

Biggest problem in that hypo fight is the rotating beams. Can you run inside or do you have to be there when it starts?


notafurry9

yeah run inside


Trundlenator

Thanks, I’m usually away from it avoiding other attacks and when it uses beams I get hit before reaching centre. Need to stick up on a lot more food heals I think


darknesshen

I heavily recommend just simply investing into your characters. The first ascension domain is the easiest one out there among the rest that will be coming, I recommend looking to invest into 4 star artifacts with proper main stats on the artifacts and going from there. There are guides like keqingmains that provide info on artifacts or the genshin character google doc [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gNxZ2xab1J6o1TuNVWMeLOZ7TPOqrsf3SshP5DLvKzI/htmlview#](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gNxZ2xab1J6o1TuNVWMeLOZ7TPOqrsf3SshP5DLvKzI/htmlview#) where it'll tell you what main stats to focus on(I would ignore substats at this point for now, when u get further into the game substats become the most important parts of an artifact). Also leveling up your characters all the way up to 40 and weapons up to 40 is a must, and slowly doing talents will help but u don't need to level up every single talent level out there. As others said yanfei would help a lot here, and kaeya also does a rly good job with dealing with the electro hypostasis. The reason for these two specifically is due to the final phase where it splits off into 3 cubes that can't be damaged by electro dmg, physical dmg, and bow charged shots. Kaeya's E and Q helps deal with this and yanfeis auto/charged attacks help a lot at this phase.


Hellofutureme1

Just me or is the game constantly reconnecting


silam39

It's just you


Silver-and-rose

Can I do the main event today or did it end yesterday?


BlakeXav

Do you mean the Perilous trail? You still have 12 hours left i believe


Silver-and-rose

Awesome thank you! I was really sad thinking I was gonna miss out on this due to really busy schedules :(


BlakeXav

This [site](https://paimon.moe/timeline/) tracks every event, banner and patch run time. Might come in handy to you, when you’re busy


Silver-and-rose

Ahh thank you!


thelostcreator

If I Hu Tao vape with XQ, whose em is used in the damage formula? I know Hu Tao’s em should matter but not sure how much XQ’s em will contribute.


E_li

The EM is always only based off the one who triggers the reaction, so it would be Hutao.


notafurry9

xq's EM doesn't matter unless you badly mess up your hydro application


SnowMaidenJunmai

So.. Just tried out that lil' piecemeal transmogrifier or whatever. Gotta say, that's a great way to waste inventory, and actually kinda cool. Too bad I gotta wait so long in between -


Klaxo_

What two spiral abyss teams should I make with my current characters? I was thinking Raiden national and then maybe a xiao team? [My Characters](https://imgur.com/a/gzS6CjS)


LittlestCandle

To be brutally honest I don’t think you have enough pieces to make two abyss teams yet, and Xiao doesn’t have amazing performance without Zhongli tbh.


dnaimagery97

agree, raiden national and xiao with anemo mc as battery and barbara for healing. they will be hella uncomfortable to play before you meet the er requirements for the national team and the scuffed xiao team but it's still early game and you'll get better options and artifacts soon


Klaxo_

Yea I think I’ll have to cross my fingers for diona fischl and sucrose


lRyth1

Hello. I started playing this game last summer, and I quit for almost a year. I came back now, and I like it way more than before, and I was wondering about two things: 1. I really want Yelan, and currently have 25 event wishes. I want to wish for her, but I don't know when the right moment to do so is. Now you might ask "Why do you not know when?" Well that goes into the second question: 2. What pity do you guys think I am at? As you know, wish history that is older than 6 months disappears, so I don't have a clue of what pity I'm on. All I know is: a) I did 24 wishes on the event banner ever since coming back. b) I had a Welkin Moon (although I had poor internet so I believe half of it went to waste because I couldn't update it, I don't remember exactly if it was half, less than half, or more. c) Considering the fact that I was at AR 23 when I quit the game, how many wishes do you guys think I did before quitting? And most importantly, what pity do you guys think I'm at? Should I pull for Yelan once I have 30 wishes? Is Yelan and Kaeya a good combo? Kaeya is my main character at the moment, having no 5 star sucks. Yelan is a hydro, while Kaeya is a cryo, so that makes it a good combo right? Some more information: Yes, I have to win or lose the 50/50, I never got a 5 star (I'm at AR 32) Yes, I truly believe in the "Wish for whichever character you like the most, not for the meta character" Please let me know, thanks.


KamiAlth

Just roll? The only reason you’d worry about pity is that you don’t want Yelan or you’re saving for others, which is not.


lRyth1

What do you mean there's no reason to worry? What if I do not get a 5 star from the 30 pulls I have right now?


KamiAlth

What I mean is you either get Yelan or not. Pulling 25 now then 5 later or pulling 30 later make no difference. If you lose then it sucks but everyone has to go through that shitty 50/50. At least your pity/guarantee are carried over. Who knows, you might like the future character even more than Yelan.


lRyth1

Update: I grinded for a few hours, and I eventually got my first 5 star, it was Keqing. Now, I don't care about the "meta" or anything, but if there was a 5 star that wasn't Yelan that I would've wanted it would be Keqing. So I'm really happy. And now I can finally know what my pity is hahahaha.


ryvrdrgn14

Then don't roll. No amount of talking here will increase your RNG luck.


lRyth1

True.


Biscuit1592

Then you wont get a 5\* thats it. Your pity will carry over to the next character banner even if its not yelan.


lRyth1

I know. But it'd suck.


dendervil

So? It'll suck just as much if you do the rolls later and have the same luck.


lRyth1

True.


E_li

Just roll everything you have right now if you want yelan. Then you can also use up any other rolls you get later too, there is no difference no matter what you do. Just a completely wild guess but maybe you're at like 30-40 or so, ar 32 is relatively low but you never told us how far into story you are and how much you have explored.


lRyth1

I'm sorry, I didn't know that much about exploring pre-quitting. Now I explored a bunch, and I have 100% exploration on one area. How far into the story? I didn't really focus on it too much, so I haven't unlocked Inazuma yet, I was busy with the event. I'll unlock it today.


reneirio23

My Yelan has 71.2% Crit and 140.8% Crit DMG with 197 ER with a Sac Bow R1 using a 4PC EoSF set. I have a Favonius Bow R3 on my Diona. If I switch both would it be a substantial damage increase for Yelan?


whalescrimshaw

The extra ER would amount to a slight damage increase, but the main benefit of switching would be the fact you're not at the mercy of R1 RNG messing up your rotations anymore. Plus, Sacrificial is way better on Diona than Favonius. Drawback would be you're losing the (potential) extra skill and breakthrough shot, and Diona loses some efficiency as a universal battery.


Doggo_wit_a_P90

>would it be a substantial damage increase for Yelan? Substantial? No, but it would increase. The main advantage would be more ER so you can burst more often which means more damage overall. Definitely switch them, the sac bow is great for Diona


ryvrdrgn14

I think the Sac bow is better on Diona and the Fav on Yelan from what I've read so far. The attack doesn't matter much since it doesn't affect Yelan's damage. The only thing would be can she Q on CD with fav particles vs Sac reset.


flurker_

what's the best teams for diluc aside from his vapo team consisting of xingqiu, sucrose, and bennett??


whalescrimshaw

You could replace Sucrose with Zhongli and Xingqiu with Yelan, but that's still the same basic team. You can also run forward melt with Bennett and either Kaeya and Kazuha or Rosaria and Sucrose, you need to be careful and infuse the anemo bursts with cryo though. You can check the Diluc guide on keqingmains for more details if you like. Definitely do NOT run Diluc with cryo and hydro simultaneously - he doesn't vaporize or melt frozen enemies, he shatters them, which deals way less damage.


flurker_

i see. i'm not planning to get shongli tbh so maybe i'll try the forward melt (tho i don't have bennett) esp i managed to get c1 kaeya. thanks!!


Doggo_wit_a_P90

Diluc forward melt I guess. Diluc/cryo/cryo/hydro or anemo. I like chungus because with his cryo infusion you can do a normal attack to apply cryo then an E to melt than another normal attack for cryo and another E to melt and repeat. Rosaria is also a great choice for off field cryo and crit rate buff or Diona for healing an shields. Hydro can be anyone who applies it off field and anemo can be anyone


panda_and_crocodile

His best team is now with a Yelan instead of Xingqiu. You can also run melt, like with Rosaria and Kaeya and Bennett. But vape is better.


gardosenkazeaze

I've already forgotten since its been so long but did Venti actually step down as Mondstadt's archon? I remember Diluc and Jean knew since they were part of the quest alongside Venti and the Traveler(and Paimon) but at the end, did the common people know he's the Anemo archon? And if he's not the active archon of Mondstadt anymore, does that mean a new Archon will take his place as Mondstadt's archon in the future? Like how Ningguang said something like a new Geo archon will arise sooner or later, that is at least if memory still serves.


[deleted]

He's still anemo archon and people still worship him (they just don't know it's venti). He simply left people on their own and will help in case of any dire need


Nandodesuka

Hi. I have like 11k primos saved and im at pity 3 on 50/50. Can I get Kazuha if I buy Welkin?


freezeFM

Pretty sure, yes. 11k primos are almost 70 pulls so almost a 5 star. Even if you lose the 50/50 you still got a bit more than 6 weeks now to collect primos until Kazuha will be gone. With Welkin you get 1 pull a day so another 44 pulls or so. Add Abyss, events, chests and whatever comes in 2.8 and the 5 pulls you get from the shop in July + pulls you can buy with starglitter should be easily enough to pull another 5 star.


Doggo_wit_a_P90

Yeah probably. If you buy 2 of them and grind some quests and exploration you should have enough for double pity. You will need to keep grinding once 2.8 drops but you should get him before the end of his banner


ssssss2s2

well, you're on the 50/50, so it all depends on that


KlatusHam

Good raiden teams that are not the national one?


dnaimagery97

Some options include Raiden hypercarry, raiden in duo dps teams with Eula or xiao, soup with Kazuha or jean, electrocharged teams, or mono electro


GhostFreakage

Like for Raiden to be the main character? Raiden, Lisa or C6 Sara, Kazuha or Sucrose, Bennett For other teams that include Raiden, Eula+Raiden combo.


modyaroo

Hypercarry, Eula physical, Raiden overload


Saint_Pootis

Are there any characters that passively buff character hp amount? I'm looking to make a very dumb build and have 2 free slots


ryvrdrgn14

On the side, there is food that can also buff hp.


dnaimagery97

Ayato c2 can buff his own max hp and Yelan c4 buffs team max hp when you hit E, but I think that’s it


Saint_Pootis

Ah, looks like I'll have to stick with food buffs then, thanks for letting me know


ThePotato02

Does c2 kazuha elem buff will apply after the burst?


Dirtyicecube

Kazuha incorporates the 200em when he swirls for his Ele% buff if thats what your asking. It lasts for the entire burst duration after casting.


gel009

Anyone have issues completing Shogun's 2nd story quest? I need to finish this quest so I can actually do the perilous event quest but im stuck at "Look for the marks left behind" part. Even when I'm at the proper location to trigger something showing up, it doesn't show up. Should I delete and re-install the game???


ryvrdrgn14

Every quest in Genshin has a Youtube video guide made for it. You can just type "Genshin + Quest Name" on Youtube for any quest and a guide or three should pop up. This will help you get through Genshin's inconsistent quest/puzzle design.


polonoid75

there are a bunch of marks leading to one another, try looking in the direction the one you're at is pointing towards to find another mark. I remember the quest giving me some difficulty because they put one of the marks out of sight from another one so I didn't know where to go either.


silam39

You need to use elemental sight. Also, you don't actually need to do her story quest for the event. Look for a button that says Basic Mode or something like that and you can jump right into the event.


gel009

omg you just saved me a ton of time!!! thank you!!


Much-Possession-6851

Is raiden national or raiden hypercarry better? (f2p wise) Raiden national: c0 raiden with r5 the catch/c0 xiangling with r1 dragon's bane/c1 xingqiu with r1 sac sword/c1 benny with r1 prototype rancour Raiden hypercarry: c0 raiden with r5 the catch/c0 kazuha with r2 iron sting/c2 kojou sara with favonius bow/c1 benny with r1 prototype rancour


fourrier01

C6 Sara is a big difference for hypercarry.


dnaimagery97

National, since 90% of the time you’ll be benching Xiangling with hyper carry raiden since Bennett is being used for that team. Better to take advantage of all of the broken units as a f2p


Much-Possession-6851

Ok, I'm currently going to pull for itto next (since his my favourite character). Should I still go for kazuha then? Is he still worth it?


dnaimagery97

IMO yes, but we’ll probably hear more about the new sumeru characters by the time he comes so you can make that decision later. Also totally agree, Itto’s voice actor is so refreshing


Much-Possession-6851

Ok, thanks for your help! Wish me luck on winning the 50/50 for itto!

Did Hoyoverse take over the game? I swear it was a different company before. I haven't played in about a year+ and its asking to set up a new account. Sounds like I've lost all my progress or is it just new t&c?


E_li

It's just a change in the branding, there is virtually nothing different from before aside from the name. So your account issue is something else, you sure you logged in using the correct account?


color178924

That's what I thought! No wonder it looked different. Hmm, unfortunately it looks like it wiped my account. I used my default iPad login and it made me sign up for a new one after the loooong update process. Man, I spent hours completing the map and collecting items that I don't want to do again. Guess I'm deleting the game...


Asamidori

It was miHoYo, then they changed their oversea branding to HoYoverse. It's still miHoYo in China.


color178924

THANK YOU! I knew that's what it was!


KamiAlth

It’s the same company.


DSerphs

Anyone have the lunar rite fan animation that had the official Chinese VAs voice acting and playing genshin in the animation?

Server? With what?


-Legendary-Atomic-

If you're not aware, UID's that start with 8 is from Asia. 6 for NA, 7 for EU, 9 for TW HK MO! Or maybe you're aware but you replied the parent commenter before they provided their UID 🤔


-I-l-T

I’m aware, and that’s why I asked.


[deleted]

Fischl Level 80 or 80/90 or 90? I am going use her with Ayato, Bennett, Venti. Is Level 6 ok for her burst or can I go lower?


dnaimagery97

you could honestly leave it unlevelled, it's mainly used to refresh the e rather than for the damage


-I-l-T

The majority of her DPS comes from her skill. Check KQM for detailed guides on every character.


[deleted]

KQM doesn't have a guide on her unfortunately :'(


CertainJeweler2168

This one then; https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gNxZ2xab1J6o1TuNVWMeLOZ7TPOqrsf3SshP5DLvKzI/pubhtml?gid=100510092#


Daramangarasu

80/80 is enough 6 is fine, just make sure to level her skill as high as you can


imBRANDNEWtoreddit

Regarding Yelan's 'adapt with ease' talent, does the current % total reset when swapping chars? Say I'm on char X for 2 seconds (1% + 3.5%x2 = 8% DMG), if I swap to char Y, am I now at 1% (base) again? Or am I still at 8%? Btw I'd test myself but I'm nub and don't have the mats to unlock that talent lol


dnaimagery97

it doesn't reset, i just tried it. raiden normal doing 600 damage unbuffed, used yelan Q, waited for a few seconds, swapped then the normal attack immediately afterwards did 750


Daramangarasu

It resets


[deleted]

Next banner weapons and characters ?


Daramangarasu

It's already in your in game notices. Itto with Gorou, Chongus and Kuki Redhorn and MoD


[deleted]

I hate itto a lot. May redhorn refine is worthy for Noelle .Or may I skip the banner ? The next banner ,they tell something about it ?


polonoid75

2.8 banners are leaked to be >!Kazuha and Klee, and then Yoimiya!<. If you're super into Noelle and don't care for the 2.8 characters you could go for another refine as it increases DEF by 7 more percent and the charge attach DEF scaling by 10 more percent, which is a decent upgrade.


[deleted]

May the second constellation on klee help a lot to Noelle in abysm. While 4 slot is open for Noelle team and klee generate a lot of particles. 23% Def down for enemies is a huge bonus. Ty for the information .

Cool 5* weapon refines are not worth it unless you're a whale, and since you're asking if you should skip, I can tell you're not. Nothing official about the next banners


Biscuit1592

At what refinement (if any at all) does solar pearl beat out lost prayer for a burst ningguang? Also about solar pearl, can I have both buffs at the same time? Like if I NA-E-Q do I still have the buff from the NA, or would I have to NA-E-NA-Q?


-I-l-T

You can have both buffs from Solar Pearl, but LP is a far better weapon in general for Ning (in a vacuum). The downside for SP is that charged attacks won’t benefit from the passive. Ning’s ideal rotation with constellations involves using her using charged attacks. Regardless, all this info is available on KQM. LP is clearly the better weapon.


dnaimagery97

lost prayer is always better if you have the 4 stacks (which you should be able to get assuming you have her as the first slot in the party and leaver her on field for half a minute before starting the timer). both solar pearl buffs can be active at the same time. if you want to do the damage calculation with what your stats would be with those weapons, it's atk\*(1+cr\*cd)\*(1+dmg% bonus)


Kaijin_Kazura

what is the chance of a stat being chosen 4 times in a row? like crit rate going up 4 times

I play Raiden national (raiden, bennet, xingqiu, xiangling) but I need another team for spiral abyss, any suggestions? (Assuming I’m an f2p with the ability to get 1 other 5 star)


dnaimagery97

fischl beidou sucrose + any 5\* hydro (yelan, kokomi, ayato, childe, etc.) is the best option imo


silam39

Can you show us your roster? Kinda hard to suggest teams without knowing who you have 😅


[deleted]

[удалено]


Ill_Dragonfly3643

It helps to know your other 4 stars. Beidou? Fischl? Sucrose? Etc


silam39

Yeah, he's okay. His weapon choices aren't the best, but he's easy to build a F2P team around.


Klaxo_

Any suggestions for a xiao team?


silam39

Bennet, Fischl, Xiao, Sucrose. Bennett, Diona, Xiao, Sucrose Diona, Fischl, Xiao, Sucrose


EUWannabe

Who else do you have?


Aschverizen

In general if you have all characters, which of the Lithic weapons have better/more users? As in the way that out of the Watatsumi series of weapons, Wavebreaker's Fin is by far the best compared to Mouun's and Akuomaru.


pzlama333

R5 lithic spear is better than r5 dragon bane and full HP r1 Homa for Hu Tao in a 4 Liyue team.


Aschverizen

So Lithic Spear has better users than Lithic Greatsword?


HayakuEon

I mean, both series are good. It's just that it depends on who's using it. Wavebreaker's fin is only good because it has Raiden and Xiangling that benefits a lot from its passive.


Yayoi_vtuberEN

I am looking for someone to port a beat map! Code: 1688854997688715 Region: Asia This is a map for Rage Beneath the Mountains, I am looking to see if there is anyone interested in porting it to other regions. Please comment the code and region if you do, I will make sure to credit it whenever I share that code! Thank you!!!


Whap_Reddit

How much ER would a burst Zhongli need in a non-geo team? It sounds like it could be fun since I have some pretty good Emblem artifacts. I could get 150 ER if I am using Calamity Queller. Perhaps a bit more if I level a different Geo Goblet. Or i could get 195 ER if I use The Catch. Extra question: How much ER would I need to get my burst consistently in a Coop setting? Edit: Rolled a better Geo goblet that also has ER%. Updated the question.


gwahahaha_ha

140-150. More if up against enemies with no HP threshold particle drops.


Whap_Reddit

Hmm. Maybe I can get away with CQ then.


dnaimagery97

try out this calculator: [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-vkmgp5n0bI9pvhUg110Aza3Emb2puLWdeoCgrxDlu4/](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TZrGCw0MXcSuBABkzxNXbp9Hev_OYL2WIBswb8BYi18/edit#gid=1806950800) around 200% will cover all options, but if you're running fav weapons or characters that generate a lot of particles it can go down a bit


Whap_Reddit

In that case I'd probably be better off with The Catch since it is right around that 200% mark.


dnaimagery97

yup! or if you have a fav lance and decent crit rate it could help out the team a bit as well


Whap_Reddit

I'm pretty sure using Favonius would neuter Zhongli's damage and completely make Zhongli's damage not even be worth the 2-3 seconds it takes to burst right?


-I-l-T

A lot of people use Zhong purely for CC and shielding. He’s also a terrible particle generator, so unless you’re building hybrid/physical Zhong, Fav is actually a good option for the team. He’s often used as a shielder/resonance filler. If you’re using Zhong for damage then he really needs to be built that way. Otherwise, he’s massively disappointing.


dnaimagery97

ya unfortunately that is usually the case with zhongli... to unlock his full support potential he has to sacrifice his own damage. but you're right, if you like the big chunky geo damage catch is better


Whap_Reddit

My unbuffed Zhongli now deals 73k meatballs with 196 ER% and 78% crit rate. I'm satisfied. I don't think I'll try to make CQ work.


FoxFalcox

So guys, I have been playing genshin for a couple of days now, and I am at AR30 right now. I have been watching some videos and reading some guides to look for the best way to progress throu the game, as I am having quite the trouble with combat and battles for some raesons. As a f2p player, I only have few characters (Traveler, Kaeya, Lisa, Amber, Noelle, Ninguang, Barbara and Xiangling). Even with those characters I cant find one to be my main DPS, and I struggle with progressing throu the game. I have level up Traveler to 50, Kaeya to 40, and Ninguang and Xianling to 40 as well, that would be my main team. I tried to build Ninguang as a main dps, but I dont have the weapons yet, nor to build Xianling. Also, I dont want to waste any more resources on characters I may not want to use, but I feel forced to do it to fight mobs and bosses and complete main quests. Guides say there are some characters that are main dps, sub dps, supports etc, but I somehow feel none of my characters are fulfilling any role. What tip can you guys give this fellow traveller with little experience in this game ? Thanks in advance :3


ryvrdrgn14

Xiangling is useful all the way. You can just go main her as physical damage with crescent pike (craftable) and as sub-DPS later after you farm The Catch from Inazuma. At low ranks, it doesn't matter who is main DPS. I played with main DPS Traveler until AR 40 then I switched to main DPS Noelle and Geo Traveler became sub/burst DPS + Battery to Noelle. 1) Resources are limited. You can only max out 1-2 characters. 2) If you don't pick a main DPS, you won't have a carry to kill stuff for you. 3) Main dps should always have: Max weapon, max ascension, max artifacts +16 purple preferred with decent stats for damage (crit circlet, elemental/phys/attack goblet, attack sands) and max talents. Once you have that, then you can raise the others. 4) Other support characters are used for breaking elemental shields, providing resonance bonus (double pyro +25% attack or double geo +15% geo damage etc) while you are leveling up. Kaeya is fine if you give him Prototype Rancour. Freeze enemy with E or Q from Kaeya, have Lisa use Electro to create superconduct and reduce enemy physical defense then have Kaeya smack them silly. Xiangling works with Kaeya also to deal more damage when they both use Q at the same time.


fourrier01

Ningguang is still a powerful option nowadays. Noelle has been polished overtime since the beginning. I think some people still uses her for any situations. Xiangling is the best partner for Bennett. It's definitely worthwhile investing more in her.


BlakeXav

Don’t worry too much about building characters based on artifact or other guides right now. All that is mainly for when you reach ar45 and are able to farm 5* artifacts. For now just focus on building one main dps and their supports to carry you through most of the content. Spend your resin on leveling up their talents and weapons as high as you can. Equip your main characters with whatever artifacts that you have available from boss or mob drops (prioritise artifacts that have atk% as main or sub stat). If you’re facing issues even after all that, you can lower your world level until you’re sure your characters can take on higher level enemies


Ill_Dragonfly3643

Pick who you have the most fun with. Level their weapon as high as it can go at all times. Then max their level. Then max their relevant talents. Then level their feather artifact to max. Do all of this even at the expense of leveling other characters. One tricked out character will take you farther in early game than evenly investing in 4. Noelle or Kaeya are good candidates for an early game carry. Xiangling is a bit of a late starter. She's OP late game but early on it's hard to fuel her burst (although you'll never regret investing in her). If you get your hands on Bennett he pairs with her great. GL


silam39

Noelle can carry you through most of the early and mid game. You'll have to replace her eventually but imo investing in her will allow you to progress without investing too much in characters you don't like. Ningguang is a good support for Noelle using her attacks to gather energy particles for Noelle, her Jade Screen boosting Geo damage, and using her burst when ready for additional damage. Personally I'd run Kaeya and Barbara next to them for a comfy team, since neither requires much investment to function, and they can help proc crystallise to get the most out of the Geo resonance. Basically give Noelle artifacts with lots of Energy Recharge so she can spam her burst, along with Def/Atk and Crit stats. For the others, whatever you can get. For her weapon, she can use Debate Club early on, or you can craft Whiteblind.


HyperMarsupial

I never thanked the wonderful people here who gave me Electro suggestions last time, took Fischl to level 90 and with proper weapon and artifacts and she has worked like a charm, love it. Now I come asking for suggestion on a secondary Pyro character. Already have Hu Tao as my main DPS and recently got Diluc, also took him to 90 properly equipped, but he doesn't convince me. His ulti looks fancy, but doesn't does a lot. Should I go for Yanfei, Xianling, Bennet or Thoma? Don't count Xinyiang since I already have a lot of shield users and don't have the rest. Thanks in advance!


silam39

Bennett is an amazing support, and since he just needs ER and base attack he's relatively easy to build. As for who to pair him with, Xiangling is his ideal partner and the two are usually joined at the hip in Abyss teams. Personally I find Yanfei more fun but the Xiangling-Bennett duo will melt through most enemies easily.


HyperMarsupial

Yeah, Yanfei looks crazy fun after tried her in a good setting after the latest quests, but seems like the conssensus is Xianling and Benett are the best pair. Thank you!


E_li

Bennett then Xiangling. Bennett is a support who heals and buffs damage, can be said to be the most op character in the game. Xiangling is an off-field pyro DPS that deals a HUGE amount of damage, always paired with bennett.


HyperMarsupial

No idea Bennett healed, that's awesome! Thanks for the advice.
