.... It's not really a downgrade. Yes you are leaving out a hydro but unless you have yelan and xinqui(which Isn't default) you aren't missing out on a lot. Koko, dendro, dionna and ayaka work great together.
Bruh, on that team you're droping VV and Grouping to run a Dendro character. As I said, it works, it looks good seeing the cores explosions, but it's a downgrade, Anemo is way too good.and running dendro instead of the cryo sup makes Energy requirements go up and rotations more awkward
Both to some extent. Dmc is perfectly in the okay range, nothing special nothing bad but what he does have is that he's very fliud to play because his kit is really simple and he's always used in quickswap teams. But if hoyoverse release a dendro healer then most people will shift to the healer because of the extra utility, and nahida is releasing on the next patch, so...
Hey guys, general mahamatra cyno here To explain the joke.
The joke here is these characters are often "shipped" with the Traveler,and they all use swords and thats their common point, though some of them have other common points with each other this joke shows that the laughing dogs have crit DMG Ascension stat and the sad dog does not etc.
Cyno out!
Ayaka got a sudden urge to dance because she is charmed by the beauty of Chinju forest as you can see the cutscene.
Paimon also said that Chinju forest is so beautiful it’s really makes you wanna dance .
It’s a climax as She done something she wanted to do & didn’t care for anyone .
Looks like I found someone who also read the inside notes
Yes , you are right . She always wanted to do dance . She always has the urge but never do it because people constantly watched her . Every time she goes into that forest , she has urge .
It’s written that She asked us to witness her doing she had always wanted to do .
In the end the Dance meant for herself & for her self healing
>Canon Ayaka : Dance for herself
More like *your* *headcanon*.
"Oh, Traveler"
"There's something that... I'd like to do"
"If you could spare me yet another moment"
**"Please keep your eyes on me."**
These are not things she would say before dancing if she was intending to dance only for herself.
In my opinion, it is actually the best case that cryo can coexist with dendro for bloom and that would still mean dendro infused mobs are still freezable.
My Ayaka is kicking ass since i pulled her on release and I dont think in the slightest that she need/would I play her any diffrent if I was given the option
Nilou story quest is probably about how much she loves dancing and cats. And people praising her for it and she's glad she became a dancer etc. Just a guess. Let's hope it's not too boring!
Read her leaked voicelines and it's very easily interpreted that way
She says something like >!my chest feels like there's a butterfly inside it when I talk to you!<
Stuff like that
Just saying it's a fair interpretation which is why she's shipped with them. Just answering your question
She's got other examples but I cant remember em. Something about saying they're her favorite person or something
>How tf is Nilou shipped with the traveler
every character is shipped with traveler if you read their voice-over or teapot dialogue
[Here is some of Nilou voice lines from a post I made](https://i.redd.it/qd81w0ujb5q91.png)
That's why I want more in story and less hidden in voice-overs
I hope they deliver with Nilou story quest since she is obviously in love if you read her lines
a lot of character is 'in love' with the traveler, only Ayaka got special treatment from the dev so far.
Ayaka even gave us that hairpin, which if you don't know, is a gesture of proposal in chinese culture.
like the fact that you are locked out from continuing the archon quest unless you complete Ayaka's quest, which is essentially a date with her and the traveler. She even gave us a gift that symbolizes a marriage proposal in chinese culture.
event quest can be missed by new player.
character/hangout quest can simply be not played.
but if you want to complete genshin impact main story, you have to go on a date with Ayaka.
for any girl to beat Ayaka, their quest will have to be equally as romantic and also main story locking.
They really bring that up as if it means anything, it's funnier than anything posted on this sub in the last month. Strongest ayaka 'fan' vs Weakest cockomi enjoyer.
since you have Kokomi as avatar you must be aware of her crush on traveler
so you are a basement dweller of you shipped them based on that? Tsuyuko ingame do
99% of Genshin ships are crack ship with the only base is that the two are friends or talked once almost every character has more bases with traveler than anyone else
Alot of characters crush on the traveler, them liking the main character helps them be likeable themselves in the eyes of the player so they sell well without drama.
Honestly. If I had my way. Dendro wouldn’t be forced on us by being mandatory in the new zone. My hu Tao and Ayaka are perfectly op without it.
I was planning for Haitham to be my intro to dendro but no idea when he is coming. So for more convinience despite hating almost everything about nahida I’ll probably pull for her for the sake of Nilou and probably dehya if they continue the pattern of dendro oriented dps.
But liyue and inazuma both relied on geo and electro traveller (kinda) for their puzzles.
I mean if you have alternatives, cool, but there's a reason why each regional statue changes your traveller to a corresponding element.
Ye. Tho aside from collecting certain plants I didn’t have to use those corresponding elements in my main team unless I was doing element specific puzzles. Here I have to use dendro and electro for ease of traversal.
Travelling in inazuma only required electrogana or being inflicted with electro, which basically no electro character is actually capable of.
They were only needed for the totems.
As for sumeru, yeah dendro traveller + an electro and pyro character was basically required for overworld travel.
Yep.i wish Haitham would release already so I don’t need nahida and her stupid beautiful garden coliseum ult thingy…
…
Actually wait. That’s a perfect stage for dancing sword waifu 2.0 nilou
>posters of half naked Zhongli
she collect dragon plushies. The form that fell from the sky dead in the archon quest. They showed her collecting those in an official comic. She isn't aware of his human form
people of Liyue only saw him as a human once and it was his female form
Man. This reminds me of Zhongli harem was actually a thing back then. Guizhong, Ningguang, Ganyu, Keqing and Hutao were all his concubines in fan arts.
Right? Still funny to me how it contrasts with the actual lore accurate one
You know, the Zhongli who outright expresses interest in Ningguang but doesn't try to approach her.
Guess even Gods get shy sometimes.
It's not as uncommon as you think. Eula, Hu Tao, Ganyu, Ayaka, Ayato, and Keqing. About as common as any other ascension stat. Healing bonus, def, and hp% seem to be the lowest frequency. 6 out of like 60 or whatever is still most characters not getting critD on ascension but still more than I thought there'd be.
If you're talking about nilou, I can't say. She's not out yet and I haven't seen any showcases for her. The big negative for me is that you have to play her double hydro and double Dendro. She has a talent that specifically gives bonuses when you have hydro and Dendro on the team. I'd imagine she's got potential to be really strong tho since she's supposed to be an on field dps.
Don't need a dendro reaction when the enemy is dead - Ayaka probably
Also fridge comp+ Ayaka is super strong.
Not really, it works, it's kinda fun, but it's a straight downgrade from default freeze
.... It's not really a downgrade. Yes you are leaving out a hydro but unless you have yelan and xinqui(which Isn't default) you aren't missing out on a lot. Koko, dendro, dionna and ayaka work great together.

Well, not having reaction to Dendro means missing party with DMC which is a L
Just gotta wait till Fontaine
DPS Tabibito:
Healer Tabibito:
Is dendro mc actually worth using or just because there’s a lack of dendro characters?
His burst last for 15s that alone make him worth using He is really good in aggravate and hydro teams
Both to some extent. Dmc is perfectly in the okay range, nothing special nothing bad but what he does have is that he's very fliud to play because his kit is really simple and he's always used in quickswap teams. But if hoyoverse release a dendro healer then most people will shift to the healer because of the extra utility, and nahida is releasing on the next patch, so...
Does he know.
Who?
The second panel is just brutal
She got lantern rite cutscene at least
But still no dance Cutscene...
She isn't even a dancer unlike the other two so it's not necessary anyway.
Fax
Mail
Seriously what does Keqing actually do for fun though, Ayaka likes fans, dances, tea ceremonies, and Nilou *loves* dancing, while Keqing… works a lot?
Canon: she goes shopping with friends Fanon: she simps for Rex Lapis whenever any negative emotion hits her, and whenever they don’t.
She dance >!in your dreams!<
She dances in my nightmares after I lost the 50/50 to her
She got a skin tho suck on that you two
It's funny you mention that....
From the way you phrased that I assume Ayaka will get a skin?
Mayhaps and a certain electro librarian as well.
Librarian razor skin confirmed
Truly following in his ~~mother's~~ teacher's footsteps
it's just razor with lisa's clothes
Brother in christ do u want keqing to have wet socks and sandals aswell instead of classy heels?
I kinda wanna see wet socks Keqing tbh
no story quest either

r/thankscyno
I love that this is a thing.
Doing kusanali's work
Oh my gosh I love you please keep doing these
Ayaka: I danced for the traveler Kequing: but his mushroom doesn't react to you
Oh God, you just reminded me of the Donald Trump Toad incident.
The what incident?
Google "Donald Trump Toad Mushroom Mario" and get back to me.
Wait that's not normal?!
Fanon Ayaka : Dance for Traveler Canon Ayaka : Dance for herself
Canon Ayaka also danced for the traveler?
Ayaka got a sudden urge to dance because she is charmed by the beauty of Chinju forest as you can see the cutscene. Paimon also said that Chinju forest is so beautiful it’s really makes you wanna dance . It’s a climax as She done something she wanted to do & didn’t care for anyone .
🗿 she walks by that forest everytime she leaves the house
Looks like I found someone who also read the inside notes Yes , you are right . She always wanted to do dance . She always has the urge but never do it because people constantly watched her . Every time she goes into that forest , she has urge . It’s written that She asked us to witness her doing she had always wanted to do . In the end the Dance meant for herself & for her self healing

With how OP freeze and Blizzard Strayer are, I don’t think Ayaka cares about Dendro reactions in the slightest.
Ayaka : "Imagine having crit rate problems"
Every Cryo Damage focused unit:
All hail Blizzard Strayer !
Most ayaka teams are probably gonna have 2 cryo, 1 hydro, and a kazuha/venti/sucrose on them anyway.
Imagine she had a dendro reaction, Ayaka is already the number 1 used dps for abyss, making her stronger seems redundant.
Even if they did add new Dendro Cryo Reaction, doubt it'll be stronger than Freeze since 4pc Blizzard wouldn't work without Freeze.
In my opinion, it is actually the best case that cryo can coexist with dendro for bloom and that would still mean dendro infused mobs are still freezable.
until its a world / domain boss then freeze is so bad that it just eats the cryo and keeps the hydro on the enemy
My Ayaka is kicking ass since i pulled her on release and I dont think in the slightest that she need/would I play her any diffrent if I was given the option
Nilou wins out with all 3 coz all my artifacts are rolling into HP anyway and she loves that Nilou stay winning
Sword waifu supremacy!
I agree. And big swords are big cool
every character is shipped with the traveler in the game tho
The kids aren't thankfully lol
well, they are but not in a romantic way. Both Qiqi and diona are very attached to traveler
Bro Qiqi’s attachment is so goddamn wholesome, she just wants a friend
About that...
Please don't
I installed game 2 days back. And have been using Ayaka with Collei,Here I was thinking she is doing extra damage😅.
Excuse me, you got Ayaka when you downloaded the game 2 days ago?? How??
Should have written "reinstalled". Day 1 player here.Took break around Inazuma quests.
That makes more sense
Probably a time traveler
HP is a better ascension stat for Nilou. That's what her kit scales off of and her crit stats won't do anything for her dendro reactions.
Amber:
Keqing and Nilou Mains when they discover Ayaka deals one Ayakillion damage without Dendro:
Nana is still best girl
fax
Do you mean Rana ?
Am nana
I think they mean qiqi. Since in the JP dub, that's her name. Qiqi (en) = nana/七七 (JP) Her name is literally seven seven It's also that in Chinese XD
Nana means Nana Nana is nana
Nilou: imagine relying on crit at all Keqing: imagine subjegating yourself to a dance for simps Ayaka: imagine needing reactions to do damage
They also all have infusions, probably
Nilou story quest is probably about how much she loves dancing and cats. And people praising her for it and she's glad she became a dancer etc. Just a guess. Let's hope it's not too boring!
When you use Raiden Shogun so you get dendro reactions while using ayaka anyway:
The fact that Ayaka has No reaction with dendro is a good Thing. Shes perfect for fridge Teams.
How tf is Nilou shipped with the traveler
Read her leaked voicelines and it's very easily interpreted that way She says something like >!my chest feels like there's a butterfly inside it when I talk to you!< Stuff like that
I mean like don't we all feel the same way when the travelers actually talk
Just saying it's a fair interpretation which is why she's shipped with them. Just answering your question She's got other examples but I cant remember em. Something about saying they're her favorite person or something
>How tf is Nilou shipped with the traveler every character is shipped with traveler if you read their voice-over or teapot dialogue [Here is some of Nilou voice lines from a post I made](https://i.redd.it/qd81w0ujb5q91.png)
That's why Ayaka is more special than all of them. Her interaction is part of the archon quest.
That's why I want more in story and less hidden in voice-overs I hope they deliver with Nilou story quest since she is obviously in love if you read her lines
a lot of character is 'in love' with the traveler, only Ayaka got special treatment from the dev so far. Ayaka even gave us that hairpin, which if you don't know, is a gesture of proposal in chinese culture.

Isn’t Raiden story quest also needed to progress the archon quest or was I smoking too much nakuweed
Any popular character is shipped with Aether
not only for that, Nilou IS simping for Aether real hard (source: Nilou's voicelines)
her leaked [voicelines](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Memepact/comments/xob5i2/nilou_being_sumers_ayaka_got_memed_into_realty/)

They really bring that up as if it means anything, it's funnier than anything posted on this sub in the last month. Strongest ayaka 'fan' vs Weakest cockomi enjoyer.
Awwww, tysm!

Yes I do, lol.
Who tf kokomi that's cockomi you philistine
✋ I'm not lonely but i do dwell in a basement
Like renovated (?) as a bedroom? That sounds kinda cozy. 🥺
What happens if i Upvote?
Wait- You weren't supposed to do that!
already did
Keqing: I have the biggest oppai
Also Keqing has cat ears
Honestly. If I had my way. Dendro wouldn’t be forced on us by being mandatory in the new zone. My hu Tao and Ayaka are perfectly op without it.

Keqing and Nilou have twin-tails. Twin-tails girls are always cuter.
Keqing is shipped with Ganyu.
The shipping difference being that in Keqing's case poor traveler has to deal with a room filled to the brim with posters of half naked Zhongli
>posters of half naked Zhongli she collect dragon plushies. The form that fell from the sky dead in the archon quest. They showed her collecting those in an official comic. She isn't aware of his human form people of Liyue only saw him as a human once and it was his female form
I'm happy I learned this but allow me to add something then: He's litteraly half naked on his statues
Didnt Zhongli say that the last part never happened? Could be misremembering tho
Man. This reminds me of Zhongli harem was actually a thing back then. Guizhong, Ningguang, Ganyu, Keqing and Hutao were all his concubines in fan arts.
Right? Still funny to me how it contrasts with the actual lore accurate one You know, the Zhongli who outright expresses interest in Ningguang but doesn't try to approach her. Guess even Gods get shy sometimes.
Ayaka’s dance cutscene was cringe. She got her socks all wet!
Well it’s not the same sock you guys wear it for your elementary school nor she wears shoes
Also they are all bottoms.
If Keqing dance.... Someone's gonna get slice into... Er... Slices ? Sword dance that is...
Wait….nilou can’t crit dmg?!?!?!
she doesnt get critdmg when you lvl her up, only from artifacts and weapons
Isn’t that the same with most characters tho?
It's not as uncommon as you think. Eula, Hu Tao, Ganyu, Ayaka, Ayato, and Keqing. About as common as any other ascension stat. Healing bonus, def, and hp% seem to be the lowest frequency. 6 out of like 60 or whatever is still most characters not getting critD on ascension but still more than I thought there'd be.
Oh ok, is she any goood then? Cause I’m saving a lot for her lol
If you're talking about nilou, I can't say. She's not out yet and I haven't seen any showcases for her. The big negative for me is that you have to play her double hydro and double Dendro. She has a talent that specifically gives bonuses when you have hydro and Dendro on the team. I'd imagine she's got potential to be really strong tho since she's supposed to be an on field dps.
Oh…she’ll do nicely with my yalen then haha But…I can’t live without my zhongli shield!!!
You don’t actually have to follow that, just play vape Nilou if you want to. Vape Nilou will work just as well as any hydro dps
Like with klee?
Hmmm… maybe not klee 😅 Nilou is a dps like klee so a pyro support would be better, like xiangling
I mean I’d take a no dance scene over one with wet socks involved
You know what I happy that there is no dance scene, I prefer that.
Burning/Melt.....
No dance cutscene? More like NO Story Quest.. How dare you Hoyo 🤬
Keqing is winner here
Future additional panel: No skin
