That was added during 1.3, so it's been like that for a while. They made a point of announcing it when it went in, and I've basically been doing it ever since.

It's worth noting that while he will point you to ore lodes that already exist, in general, the daily nudges spawn additional nodes that act independent of the 3-day cycle. Like, if he points you to the same one two days in a row, it'll be substantially less. Also, you can go to ones he doesn't point you toward, and it's not as much. But if he's been pointing you anywhere else and then sends you to a spot, it's more lucrative. I'm not sure what the precise mechanics are, but I just go where he tells me (except I often skip the Mondstadt ones by the wolf because they're such a pain to get to.) I also check under the mountain and on the islands every few days when I think of it.

Do you pronounce exit "egzit" or "ecksit?" Egzit is voiced, ecksit is unvoiced.

I tried it again just now and I said egzit both ways. Unvoiced was first, so it's not like I was swayed by how I said it out loud.

I still claim it's close enough to ecksit to be called an in-between. egksit, perhaps. There's definitely some hardness to the sound that isn't from a "guh".

About 35k for me at level 90. ...Also got Staff of Homa, which is relevant for getting the big HP numbers.

Does Homa add 20% to total HP or just base HP? If it's a straight +20%, that means you've got 29k-ish without. I imagine Swifty will be at about the same point once artifacts are +20.

So yeah, I'm missing some health potential somewhere. I equipped Diona's sands (+12) and estimated I'd have 27k with a fifth artifact. 2k isn't a world of difference, but it might be enough to tip the scales between using an HP sands and working with something else. And if Homa isn't providing 6k for you, then obviously there's an even bigger gap I'm missing somewhere.

How much HP does everyone have on Hu Tao? I can't find an HP sands that isn't both off-set and dubious in substats. I think I may be giving up on having the right sets at this point and just accept what I can get, but I've heard EM can be decent...which is probably a lot less so for me considering I don't have a functional Xingqiu. Literally every build guide pairs him.

Alternatively, or additionally, there's also

3. Build Beidou.

Beidou (or Fischl) doesn't really pair with Ganyu, which is about the only viable set-up I have for reactions right now.

Anyway, iirc, my level 80 Hu Tao has 23k HP, and I know it's easily possible to have a good bit more even without running hp-hp-hp or hp-pyro-hp.

Not that I've gone around polling people, but nobody I know of spent their check at all. Went immediately into the bank. Whether that was to save or to pay for future bills, I don't know.

I do think it's a little weird that being absurdly tall is practically a requirement to play in the NBA. I saw a TED talk once, I forget what it was on, where the guy made a note that something like 30% of all the men in the world over seven feet tall play or have played in the NBA. It's almost like athleticism is secondary to gigantism.

And it also changes the dynamic of the gameplay radically. The intent of the game was for people to shoot the ball through the hoop, not to put the ball through the hoop. You don't see that same above-the-rim action in the WNBA, (albeit height is still incredibly emphasized there, too.) Whether that's good or not is open to the beholder. I personally don't enjoy the men's game but I did follow the W for a couple years.

So while I don't think it's any more unreasonable that a tall person gets to play basketball than that a smaller and therefore lighter person makes for a better jockey, I can see how someone having that avenue completely cut off to them because of one physical characteristic, despite anything else they might bring to the table, could be seen by that person as being unfair. If that's what FT was getting at, it's poorly worded, but it's at least a line of thought that makes some sense.

I saw that one. Don't agree much with the analysis. Pretty evident this was some dude's opinion piece that he prepared for release day.

The table is a nice resource, but I saw something similar elsewhere that this basically reaffirms -- the 400% cap is a non-factor. There's only two times it comes up. One is max refine Staff of Homa. The other is with a Dragon's Bane (or a White Tassel) and you choose to crown her E. There are very specific players who might end up in those circumstances, but they're certainly the minority. And even if you do end up capped, you won't be capped by much.

So yeah, I think it's safe to say we can just straight up compare the weapons. The two weapons in particular I'm juggling are Jade Spear (recent gacha gift) and Dragon's Bane (my evergreen Xiangling weapon). One youtuber made an early impressions guide ranking all the weapons, and specifically addressed the comparison of these two, saying he thought that +36% damage was better than what Jade had to offer, which was primarily the extra attack. Once factoring Dragon's Bane's EM into the conversation, he felt it was clearly better for any kind of reaction-based comp. That's only back-of-napkin supposition, though.

I didn't share earlier because I didn't know if someone wouldn't take a dump on the channel or something, but I'm not doing anywhere near as good a job of keeping up with the channel as I was in the first couple days, so I might as well, I guess. The channel's just called The Tutor's Guide. Link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpm5RNShtFCT163ohZQx4HQ

I put up two new videos today. We'll see how that goes rather than the 3 or 4 I've done before. Staggering the releases didn't improve anything, and in the days -- plural -- since I've uploaded, no additional views have come in. So yeah, I can keep getting ~300 views per video if I keep at it, but nothing really seems to be accumulating past that. Don't get me wrong, 300 views is more than I would have imagined I'd start with. I'm not ungrateful. Just thought there'd be more progression.

But anyway, now that you can see it, feel free to point and laugh...or tell me what you might like to see done differently. Content creation is not something I've done for very long, so I might even be overlooking some really obvious stuff.
