Ganyu was nice and came to me almost as soon as I hit soft pity, so I still have a good stock of rolls saved for Hutao or whoever

also contrary to what I was expecting, she is actually good. Kind of clunky and awkward (please Mihoyo just let Bows use charged attacks like a normal weapon) and her taunt is a bit squirrely, but she can put out very high damage with her charged shots in a pretty decent AoE and I don't even have a proper attack weapon for her, I'm still using the Stringless that was supposed to be for Fischl.

Apparently with super-optimized setups and animation cancelling and whatnot she's the best DPS in the game, which is a pretty drastic departure from where I was initially expecting her to be (just above bottom tier)

Yeah after hearing how broken she apparently is I went ahead and pulled her (had hard pity so yeah)
Initial calcs from CN seem to indicate she's got like double Diluc's DPS which is sorta nuts lol

I do play on PC at least so the bow system isn't the worst, but her taunt does give her a lot of breathing room to aim which is nice. But yeah, her charge attack is pretty stacked (Initial damage + good AoE), I've pretty much only got leftover equipment on her and she's putting out some nice numbers (On the other hand it's also the Wanderer's Troupe set so it's one of her best options too) Also her burst lasts freaking forever, seems like the longest among all field burst effects by a good margin
That aside as is her base damage output when she isn't using charge attacks or elemental spam is pretty piddly but dem's the breaks (Lowest attack on my frontline currently after all), one of my equipment is also Cryo-boosting which furthers the gap

Apparently the Prototype Crescent is one of her best 4-star options, but I'm out of prototypes to use unfortunately (Forged a Compound Bow which works pretty well with Fischl for basic attack spamming, doesn't seem as good for Ganyu) so I'm just using a Sacrificial Bow as a sort of filler for now; the Battle Pass and Paimon Shop bows also seem like good contenders though the latter is best when fighting mobs and won't activate its buffs in 1v1 situations so it can be a bit situational

Yeah, if you can stack the right buffs then capping isn't too hard regardless (Astral very good for this).

Over half my elements do run other EX mainhands so there's a bit of dilution lol but yeah they're still pretty good slot-ins. I've bought all of them now at any rate.

the W banner ended before I was expecting, but I got everything I wanted so oh well. Between the chapter and freebies (and buying Blaze which comes with a free 10-roll) I have like 170 rolls for future banners too and not anything I massively want to use them on. Archetto looks cute and reasonably useful if slightly inferior to Exusiai, might go for her.

Yeah I forgot the banner ended today lol, though I was already planning to save my remainder anyway
