My dumbass mistook Chevreuse for Clorinde.

I feel like that would be difficult to do, considering the most powerful force in the Genshin universe is the two buttons holding Clorinde's blouse shut.

They both got a hat thing going on.

Theres a pretty big difference in their designs though. I dont think any Genshin characters are easy to mix up other than maybe Eula and Arlecchino when she first debuted in a trailer and looked like Eulas Evil Twin anyways, but even she looks different enough now.

When Inazuma was new, and we didn't have much of a look at either yet, I had trouble distinguishing Sara from Raiden. Obviously, seeing them in full and being exposed to them for a long time now, that sounds pretty laughable, but at the time they were just "tall, dark-haired lady who is/represents the Shogun."

Wow I sucked at challenge 2 bringing the trial Chev, Fischl, Yoimiya, Yae, Kuki and other Electro characters. Only got 2k something points.

The problem isn't that you suck, but rather that overload sucks in general and making a team to quickly activate heightened verve will leave you with a gimped squad that cant capitalize on it.

Just put your strongest team on the lead off and then use Yoimiya and Fischl with either Xingqiu or Yelan to deal with the chunky boys in the second half.

Hope that helps.

That might be the way to go about it because yeah I used Chev, Fischl, Yoimiya and Kuki on one part and barely got any points at all lol

Raiden, Xinqui, Xiangling, Bennett - ez pzy

right, i forget b8 has a discord too

I used Fischl on both sides. Bennett, XL and Chev first half for overload. Yae, Kirara, Kazuha for aggravate second half, cus any electro reaction will do.

I think I might have Navia built artifact wise finally? Her stats could be probably better though, but getting the right stats and rolls is just torture.

I am building Raiden and Chevreuse for Raiden/Yae/Chev/Xiangling team. Pretty good

How is Chevreuse as a healer? I was led to believe relying on her heals is a little tough.

If you're okay with Bennett, you're okay with Chevreuse

Bennett's one of the best single-target healers in the game, though (provided you're under 70%.)

Probably not ideal artifacts just yet, but hows my Navia looking so far? I dunno what numbers she wants for ATK, Crit Rate/DMG and ER

Lv80
HP 16,718
ATK 2,208
Crit Rate 61.4%
Crit DMG 134%
ER 156.5%
Geo DMG bonus 46.6%

That is pretty alright. ER 140 would be more than enough. She mostly wants as much Crit as possible. What weapon are you using and what level is it?

The free Melusine one and I believe its lv90. This isnt too bad for the little bit of artifact farming Ive done for her so thats nice at least.

Currently her artifacts look like this using 4 piece Nighttime Whispers if you wanted more of a breakdown

Flower:
Crit DMG 10.9%
ATK 11.1%
Crit Rate 7.4%
EM 42 (sadly not a different substat)

Feather:
Crit DMG 13.2%
ER 14.9%
ATK 11.1%
HP 269 (lol)

Sands: ATK 46.6% (definitely need a better one)
ER 4.5%
Crit Rate 10.1%
DEF 32
EM 33

Goblet (Geo DMG of a different set and needs replaced too. Feels too weak to even use for Noelle instead?)
DEF 19%
ATK 53
Crit DMG 5.4%
Crit Rate 7.8%

Circlet Crit Rate 31.1%
ER 6.5%
HP 508
DEF 5.8%
Crit DMG 25.6%

Still working on getting my Navias talents to 9/9/9. I might crown her, shes fun.

Her artifacts are trash tho.

I used that same Navia in Abyss and she was doing some impressive damage for only lv6 talents.

Oh another Itto event. Hes kinda annoying, but primos are primos

I will always celebrate the return of the Event Archon Itto

Yanfei is here too huh? I can't even remember the last time I saw her

I thought the event archon was Liben.

Yanfei was probably last in something during the Chasm event...with Itto.

I saw a fair amount of people complain the one playable lawyer character had no screen time in Fontaine the land of Justice and courts. Can kinda see where theyre coming from, but guess Yanfei was introduced in the wrong region. Its definitely been a while since she last appeared I think, but you can say that for others as well. Zhongli and Hu Tao kinda hog all the Liyue character scenes these days if were not counting 4*s like Xingqiu

Lantern Rite soon. That is something Liyue characters will always have. Mondstadt has Windblume. Sumeru crew is the one that who knows when we'll see again.

Events dont always mean characters will get screen time though sadly. Its not like Noelle or Qiqi have gotten stuff during Windblume or Lantern Rite. Noelle only just started existing in events and shes been in since launch. Qiqi is pretty easily the most forgotten about Liyue character screen time wise. Inazuma also has characters who hog event screen time while others hardly appear (Heizou and Sayu for example)

Codes from the version announcement stream. 3 new outfits incoming

BBQ8AZHUH2CZ

Was just about to paste those myself. Shame the free costume is for Xingqiu and costumes otherwise are just too expensive. Not gonna lie if Eula ever gets one and its great I might buy it because shes just too good

I have the genesis crystals from Welkin that I could have used to buy costumes, and I had been hoping Shenhe would get a good one. Alas.

I have 300 of those the time I randomly won a Welkin from something in game. Really though our last free costume was a dude too (Kaeya) if I recall. Id have loved that KFC Noelle one to be free, but it never even got put in game altogether

will enjoy seeing xingqiu's new outfit for the 2 seconds he is on field in my teams

We get more map expansion too. Makes me wonder how big the map in the game is currently because it sure feels massive

Xingqiu gets a Furina costume LOL. I have enough welkins saved up for Ganyu.

Man, they weren't satisfied enough by putting boy Furina in Honkai already?

Man I still have a lot of Fontaine to explore and world quests there to do. Got a whole one for Meropide and the Research Institute along with all the character quests that werent Furinas. Hell I havent even fought the seahorse boss yet or whatever it is

I've barely touched the 4.1 and 4.2 areas. Only did the one world quest that gives Furina mats.

Kinda hoped the Xingqiu outfit wouldn't have the same design sensibilities as his base outfit, but nope, more girl shorts.

Wouldve been nice yeah. Im still working on getting my Fontaine wings too along with all the upgrades to the statue and fountain

bump

Still working on the same stuff mostly. Got 3 stars for Floor 12 of Abyss.i just have no idea how to group my teams for these floor 12 enemies. That damn thunderbird takes so long to die Im not sure who is ideal for quickly removing it. I brought Yoimiya, Yelan, Diona & Kuki for that half. My other half was quite fast with Furina, Noelle, Nahida & Navia.

All Fontaine area's up to this point 100% Exploration. Let's go!

I'm missing like 10% in the upper-right, and I cannot figure out where. I think there must be an entire underground area I'm missing. There's a tunnel near the harbor that has current too strong to swim through, so it must be an exit, but I can't figure out how to get in.

I'm up to 99% now (and 100 everywhere else.) Turns out I missed a fair bit in that area, scattered throughout. Continued to get a bunch more in the Morte region after 100%, so that always feels great. "You got, like, 106% in this other area, but you can't even get to the baseline 100% over here."

Just reminding everyone even after you get the Mega Box of Marvels you can still do a daily exchange with Liben til he leaves.

Part 2 4*s revealed already

Xiao/Yae
Xinyan
Ningguang
Yaoyao

Wow Yaoyao and Faruzan not chained to some characters like previously expected since Faruzan is on Birb banner with Noelle and Gaming. Dont personally care to pull on either banner though since far more interesting stuff is coming later

Was Yaoyao chained before? I don't see why she would be.

People assumed she would be because her previous appearances were Alhaithams debut banner and Alhaithams rerun. This is only her third appearance total so maybe the rerun was a coincidence
