Current Events > Genshin Impact General 17: What did you just say about the Divine Priestess?!

(+) Yeah! (+)

So I decided to put Keqing in my party since she's prominent in the Festival. She's mostly been someone who wears all the Shimenawa gear I've gathered in the past few weeks.

I didn't realize I apparently made a really freaking good Phys Keq set (has a Phys goblet)

Hu Tao, Keqing, Ganyu all making apperances in this quest alone makes it fun. And Ayaka being my lead unit made it even better. I got to take a pic with Keqing and Ayaka staring each other which was a dream of mine!

Everything seemed wonderful until Venti showed up to remind us of what life was like before Inazuman heavyweights

Just started this quest. Was laughing hard at Keqing thirsting hard for Yanxiao.

Agreed, I like seeing the main characters interact.

Also lol at them acknowledging the dailies from the new year's event. (Or are they referencing the daily commissions?)

I did all the available missions currently, and only got like 400-ish primogems and the fish claymore. I thought someone said there were 1,100 available today?

With all the shitposting going on at the Genshin ps4 board, it's a wonder that the mods don't set up shop there. Unbelievable.

Neptunia's friendship tracker has avoided the shitshow so far, somehow.

I saw youtubers and some people on the Genshin board saying there are 1100 primogems available

So far, I got

60 from quest
30 from the ingrediant one
100 from the offer delicacy one (not sure on this one)
200 from the chests

Ayaka is so good against the Hydro Hypostasis it's legit hilarious

Once I've done enough farming on my secondary account, I will unleash my Ayaka upon Teyvat. I'd imagine she's equally effective against Oceanid? I'm building Tartaglia once I'm done with her.

The thing about the Hypostasis is that the "shielded heal" phase involves three slow hydro slimes trying to get to the hypostasis. Ayaka's dash freezes them and a single attack kills them after that since it's cryo-infused. It's pretty funny.

Oceanid is more annoying simply by design.

She destroys oceanid except for the birds. Ganyu is still better for that.

I'm just now realizing that they were running all over Liyue scraping together lore when they could just talk to Zhongli. Is he on vacay or somethin'?

Got Kokopium Ascended to Lv 80 with 5/7/7 talents

I dunno what I'm doing wrong but she just isn't very good so far. I have her in a Millileth set that is basically nothing but HP and ER.

Should I change Thrilling Tales to Prototype Amber or something else?

Meh, her strength is in her heals/facetanking and enabling of reactions and team damage rather than her own personal damage. Like Noelle but with less damage and a better, more synergistic element. EC and freeze teams are where I've seen her shine best so far.

PAmber will be better for her own damage, and the Inazuman Ring one for EC comps.
---

Thrilling Tales is such an amazing buff for the character that switches in. It gives my Diluc like 4000 ATK which is just hilarious. It feels wrong to use a 3 star weapon, though.

The thing with Kokomi is that she would be SO much better if her Jellyfish followed the active character instead of just sitting in one area without being reposition-able.

Although IIRC Harbinger of Dawn is quite literally Albedo's BiS weapon.

Do you have an anemo in the party? That's how I get around it; succ the shit into the jelly's aoe.

Granny is perfectly capable of telling them what's up, too. But she's apparently too busy making tea.

I don't think most of them have even met Zhongli. I think NingGuang might be the only one and for obvious reasons she's not going to ask him for anything.

Edit: well also Hu Tao but she has no idea who he really is

This event is really just tossing characters at you

We need to talk about how perfect it is that the refinement material for the giant fish claymore is a nice oil rub

Apparently, I am in the top 10% in the entirety of the Americas for Hilichurl slaying. I feel like I should get McDonalds-like signs in Mondstadt, Liyue Harbor and Inazuma City that say:

Over 15,300 Hilichurls Served Death

Fuck it, that's what I want for Anniversary.

---

Yeah I'm in the top 10% for pigeon slaying

Anniversary drama escalating.
Cmon Mihoyo, time for hydro+electro redesign and free 5* choice tickets.

(they'll just push it under the carpet)

I really want to roll for Primordial Jade Cutter but there's no way I'll get it after getting Thundering Pulse and Engulfing Lightning in the last 7 pulls.

Don't roll. The catalyst is the Qiqi of weapons. Don't get baited by the sword.

That catalyst looks so awful. It's literally useless for everyone except Kokomi and Barbara, and it's not even Barbara's BiS because Barbara's healing scaling is not the same.

And in the case of Kokomi, she's one of the least gear-dependent characters ever released. I'm not sure basically anything matters on her other than ER and HP%. And healing % on the crown, I guess.

At least the other "custom" weapons are really good for basically everyone who can equip them. In fact, IIRC, Kazuha is actually better with Mistsplitter than his own custom weapon.

DPS Kazuha prefers the PJC I think actually.

The freedom sworn is better for support / enabler Kazuha. I think Freedom Sworn is a grossly overlooked weapon that buffs the entire team in the hands of Kazuha or Albedo but Kazuha is still the better user because Crystallize doesn't cause damage.

---

Damn it I want PJC so bad but it's so much money to just GAMBLE on one.

I don't want to try my luck on the weapon banner ever again. I've won the desired weapon 4 out of 4 times. That ain't gonna continue.

Besides, I have Mistsplitter, which is very nearly BiS for most melee 1h sword users anyway.

It's just a slightly better Death Match and I only use Zhongli, Hu Tao, and Raiden Shogun. I have Homa and Grasscutter so this goes in the junk pile.

Everything mihoyo is getting review bombed.

and I personally feel its almost justified tbh.

---

Maybe the real anniversary rewards are the friends we made along the way!

---

I just dont get how a free standard 5* character/weapon would financially hurt mihoyo over this shitty anniversary.

good will and good publicity is priceless.

bad press and bad publicity could financially ruin a company.

To be completely honest, if I had actually waited and saved my primogems for Kokomi instead of simply "getting lucky" and pulling her, I would be furious. Combine that with the absolutely pathetic anniversary gifts, and you've got a recipe for a lot of pissed off fans.
