A game that explicitly has no real endgame content in order to foster FOMO sales with time gates sure becomes problematic when the time gates are also removed.

Okay, when the last topic ended I had finally received the Reliable Helper commission and finished it off. Moved to Liyue so that I could complete "Good Sign". I have no progress in this one. Let's see how many months it takes. *sigh*
(Today's signs were the cat and the fish and the granny)

Eight days later, Good Sign spawns. What do I see? The same two fucking signs I saw last week. smh

Decided to level Kaeya to 70 for the freebie fates. Cryo weed drops two cores every time at AR 59. fml

I'd say Yae is built to be more of an on-fielder and Fischl more of an off-fielder.
And dendro or some kind of new artifacts will likely push Yae even more ahead of Fischl eventually

Would be nice if Mihoyo condensed three skill casts into a triplecast hold skill. As far as I can tell Yae's issue is just that you have to spend 6 casts and a burst before leaving the field.

Best idea I saw was tap her skill for a line of turrets that target everything at random in their range, hold her skill for a triangle of turrets that target on proximity. Fixes the issue of time needed to put the turrets down and lets you control how you target stuff easier.

Pretty sure all the events in a patch are made well ahead of time, so they probably had no choice but to keep it going.

...how the hell did I end up with a C6 Ayaka

One of my least favorite characters.

Let's see....

C0 = First banner. 50ish pulls.
C1 and C2 = First banner. Back to back 10-pulls with C1 being a 50/50 pity win around pull 70.
C3 was an accidental hard pity break (ugh)
Then I deliberately went for C4 but that took me like 100 pulls
Then C5 and C6 were two pulls apart, but only 30 pulls after C4

So I think I got seven Ayakas in around 300 total pulls which is kind of amazing.
Too bad she's not that much stronger at C6 than C2.

Wish I could trade her constellations for Xiao's or Ayato's

I'm going out on a limb here and saying Diluc is actually still one of the strongest DPSes in the game, and if Hu Tao didn't exist would probably be considered S-rank. He's INCREDIBLY good, and also has some of the lowest gear investment requirements of any character ever.

He's still the best on-field melt pyro DPS (Xiangling is better, though off-field).

Diluc's hang up is that it's super hard to get cons, there's no good claymore in general (most cases Serpent Spine is BIS), and he needs one of the most contested support characters in the game to be useful (Xingqiu).

He's super versatile, super consistent, no ICD, can be swapped without detriment, can plunge on a flat surface, and his burst is basically always ready

Diluc has everything necessary to be a legit top-tier DPS except a weapon. If Diluc had a weapon as good as Staff of Homa, he'd probably be on-par with Hu Tao (better at AOE, worse at single target).

Diluc is also extremely consistent with his DPS. Most other Main DPS characters have some kind of consistency issues (at least at C0) whereas Diluc is basically always doing good damage. This is one of the reasons why Ganyu is still considered top-tier - she isn't necessarily the strongest at any one role, but she can keep the DPS going non-stop, and over time that adds up.

Consistency is actually an issue I have with Ayato. Much is said about him not having the crazy cooldown issues Childe (potentially) has, but the fact is that he only does good on-field DPS in short bursts, interspersed with cooldowns. This is a big problem for high-energy-requirement sub DPS characters like Xiangling, who need an enabler that can stay on the field vaping for the entirety of her pyronado. I'm in the minority in this belief, but I honestly think Childe is more future-proof than Ayato because of this one issue. Ayato just doesn't play well with most rotations except current electro units. In addition, Childe's ultimate is vastly more useful as an on-field DPS than Ayato's. If anything, Ayato's burst has negative synergy with forward vape and some other setups.

It's easy to be impressed with Ayato's on-field damage, but we're long past the era where selfish hypercarry main DPS characters rule the roost.
