Current Events > Genshin Impact General 13: You get a free Beidou, Everyone gets a free Beidou!

(+) Yeah! (+)

Honestly, this game feels like a chore now. There's like no story anymore. It takes like a solid hour to do all the bullshit they added that you have to do every day (spending resin, doing dailies, doing "special events" which are also not fun, etc.).

Keqing's DPS is surprisingly close to Ayaka's

except the reverse Eula burst on Ayaka
Easily dishing out 246000 damage in one press is beyond Keqing

Yeah. Wish Keqing's burst was stronger. It does charge fast, though.

Eula's normal attacks are stuuuuuuuuuuupid strong though.

I whaled like a moron for C3 Eula. Gonna go for C6 when her banner comes back.

I love how fast it recharges and how quickly it releases you, it makes her a pretty good switch out dps with my Klee

TIL a trash 4-piece Pale Flame set has nothing on a really good 2pc Chivalry 2pc Gladiator's.

Would rather have Pale Flame instead of Gladiator's for +25% Phys DMG but it is what it is.

Eula went from
4pc PF w/ 2300 ATK, 45% CR, 130% CD
to:
2pc Ch 2pc Glad w/ 2600 ATK, 67% CR, 160% CD


---

4pc PF is theoretically best DPS but the level of perfection required is basically impossible. Most people use 2PF 2BC

---

I have 4pc PF and I kinda wanna switch it out because my Eula's CR/CD suffers

Better to get really high CR/CD at least based on my testing.

---

I got pretty lucky I think with my Eula, rocking 4pc PF. Theres a few easily replacable pieces but i'm not worried about it tbh.


---

My Eula is shit lol. She has 4 Pc PF but her goblet, flower and circlet are crap. Her sands is decent and her feather is pretty great (both crit stats, ER and EM). She is level 80.

And, speaking of Eula, I think I should try her out in Spiral Abyss to see if she can help me get better results

That's about what mine is

---

Eula's like Venti in that if there's a room/fight she's allowed to cheese, she's unrivaled.

---

I find it interesting that all of the characters and lore seem to reference the Goeteia except Albedo. His constellations and most of his iconography have vague references to Greek mythology.

Grace of Helios
Tide of Hadean


---

Still running 2pc BC/PF on mine. Both sands are kinda trash and I'm still using a 4* hat but other than that I've gotten pretty lucky with her substats.

That's pretty good all things considered.

I loved gearing Zhongli. Literally just "stack HP" and it was great. Same thing with Diona - HP and ER. Just got my Diona to around 30k HP and she's basically perfect for Ayaka.

Gearing up Tartaglia? Now -that- is some Brain Power. Trying to decide how much EM you need based on who is actually triggering the reaction, etc.

I would pay $100 to have his C6. That's how shallow I am.

is sucrose (c6), ayaka (c0), xingqiu (c5), and diona (c6) a good team comp? i don't have kazuha. could swap out xingqiu for mona, but she's only c0.

Sucrose doesn't really contribute anything to that group. I suggest replacing her with someone else. The upcoming Sayu might be a good choice or you can use Beidou which is almost exactly what I'm doing right now.

---

i was planning to skip the next banner and save towards baal, so sayu isn't very likely for me. i do have a c5 beidou though. that sounds like a good shout, thanks.

---

I... have no idea why I typed 'goblet' and not 'sands' above lol

Don't have personal experience with either hydros but I think either works.
---

I looked at Baal's kit and I find it absolutely bizarre that her C6 only works in Co-Op

Mona is generally considered better for most cases but for enemies who move around a lot (like the Nobushi or treasure hoarders), Xingqiu is better.

How come? Thought the res shred would be nice to have at least.

Don't pull anyone and just stick with the group. Sucrose greatly benefits the team (resistance drop, large damage buff, element spreading, gravity pulling), and your team is pretty much perfect.
Sayu is a vastly inferior option. Xingqiu vs Mona is purely preference. Beidou and Baal are harmful to Ayaka

Blue_Thunder posted...

Freeze doesn't benefit from elemental mastery so the resistance shred is the only benefit you get and it's not really enough on its own. The benefit you get from swapping in Beidou to hit a 30k skill + insane burst damage will contribute substantially more.

EM buff is ONE of the many things Sucrose does

It'll also potentially reduce Ayaka's critrate by 55%, lead to a garbage superconduct reaction and you pick it over element spreading Xingqiu+Sucrose deliver or cryo shred + 20% damage buff + gathering Sucrose delivers

I'm pretty sure it affects all of your characters minus Baal herself in your party also. Wouldn't make any sense if it was co-op only.

Not sure what you mean by this since Superconduct doesn't break freeze and electrocharged doesn't clear hydro off the enemy you hit with it meaning you can do both. Additionally Superconduct spreads cryo damage.

Beidou's claymore breaks freeze but if she's on the field Ayaka isn't so that is literally a non factor.

---

This is about as good as I can get Ayaka



Eula's biggest problem: nothing survives long enough for her ult to proc. This is just a normal attack.


---

tried out the team comp tyranthraxus recommended on a low level abyss floor since they're only half-geared and it worked so well. i need to finishing building them all up so bad. thanks again for the rec.

---

Decided to spend 20 bucks on the standard banner because I was so close to a pity.

Got Skyward Spine. It's good on pretty much anyone, right? Especially Xiangling and DPS Zhong?

Skyward spine kinda sucks. Best user I guess is a support build Rosaria. It's probably second best for Raiden Shogun but she's not out yet.

---

I don't know, it has pretty good damage, and even adds crit rate alongside energy recharge. That's a pretty nice combination.

Plus the +Attack SPD could let you run a Machine Gun Zhong / Rosaria with C6 Fischl

And for Xiangling it seems just about BiS

The ER is essentially overkill for Zhongli. You're better off using Deathmatch in basically every scenario.

Zhongli is overkill anyway

In a shocking development this morning, I received not one, but two billet drops today. Bow and catalyst.

My billet luck is the worst. It's been months since I've seen one.

Also it never stops cracking me up how completely ridiculous Eula's damage is on her main attacks

---

i just got the claymore billet from the tree. already got prototype archaic at r5 though, so i guess i'll save it for a while

---

I have a feeling next update they will make getting billets slightly easier through different means

---

Figures I'd finally get a claymore billet after grinding for Electro Coins to get R5 Whiteblind from the Sakura Tree

---

Got enough primos just in time to do a 10 pull for Ayaka one last time...and got her!

I have barely any exp books, though, only had enough to get her to lvl 19 lol.

---

Nice! She's really good IMO.

Unless they start fucking with drop rates, the sheer volume of additional weekly bosses that are expected to be added over time should alleviate this problem somewhat.

---

Actually, yes, prototypes will be easier to get coz they're buffing the weekly chance by 25%!
Coz there's a 5th weekly boss

---

Something is weird with the way they drop. I go weeks without seeing any then I get 2-3 in one week. I think there's more to it than just rng I think there's an internal pity counter based on his kills

---

Not perfect but whatever >.>

Got a spear one just now. Which makes a total of 6 sitting in my inventory now

I also have 6 but I used 5 of them on crescent pike and 1 to finish the dragonspine quest.

Yeah i should probabaly do that too. I actually had an r3 early on but used it to level something else lol. Oh god I was stupid back then

---

I suppose I should do something with the nine spears I have, but I'm not that big a fan of Rosaria and I just feel like something better to use them on will come along. Eventually...
