Grats on getting her, too!!

Dang though, just finished the Bilqis questline, I loved it. I really hope the quality of Archon and bigger world quests stay like it has been since 3.0. Jeht is a phenomenal NPC.

Honestly, every region should have a big overarching world quest that expands every so often. The quests with Jeht solidified this opinion for me.

I'd agree as long as it's not tied to items required to do stuff in that region like the sand slate, or required for the archon quest like the aranara.

The sakura tree purification questline was a good example of doing it right.

Got to max out the current Tree cap and need 9 more oculi for the current Statue cap.

What do I do here now?

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/0/7/8/AAfAHXAAEHM-.jpg

Just been rushing through that questline cause it said I should do it before going to the new zone. I just ran away from some void thing after doing 3 trials?
I think that was golden slumber but not dirge of bilqis

Not sure what you're describing, but Golden Slumber consists of Lost in the Sands, Introduction to Indoor Archaeology, Secret of Al-Ahmar, and then Dreams Beneath the Searing Sands. It's a long questline, as is Bilqis, which starts with Wisdom Has Built Her House. It's in the Tanit Camps of the new area.

Oh so "The Dirge of Bilqis" starts in the new area? Thanks. I finished "Golden Slumber" and then clicked on "initiate quest" there and that message showed up which I didn't know what it meant

I genuinely believe Hu Tao's EN VA could rap in Hu Tao's voice and make it sound good, the problem is that she's rapping in english to a beat/song that had english as an afterthought.

Because of that, the beginning feels like she's just cramming a bunch of words together

Yeah, fitting those lyrics to that flow was the problem

From what I've read, MHY are pretty anal about translations too, which probably didn't help either

You thought the Japanese one was great? It was just a bunch of words with no grammar, it didn't even make sense.

I don't blame the VA for either, they both do a good job with what they're given.

At first I was disappointed. It was fine, but didn't feel like as much of a finale as last year's Lantern Rite. Then I realized, it's not the finale. We've got the banquet they mentioned coming tomorrow, which I presume will have the ending that really tries to hit us in the feels. So I'm looking forward to that.

I thought it was pretty short and overall I felt it was okay-ish. I was really into part 2 and the adepti stuff and I thought there would be a part 3 with more build up to the concert and an emotional cinematic of Ping on stage too, but then suddenly it was all over lol.

The mini games are fun though, I'm especially fond of the boat multiplayer one.

I've come to the realization that C6 Kazuha is super fucking OP. You wouldn't think it, but somehow he just is. I think it has more to do with how the C6 bonus affects his plunge attack damage, but holy shit is he a fountain of offensive pressure.

And she's spreading Cloud Retainer's rumors, lol.

That 1% for me felt like it took ages and tons of chests/mechanics/seelies/whatever. Do you have any side quests you can knock out instead, will probably be easier.

if not, at least tomorrow is reset.

I've been working on Inazuma all evening, don't have the treasure compass yet and I'm trying to get the last 4 levels of the tree and it's been a pain. I finally made progress on that foggy island at least. got tired of the fog recovering and those dog enemies.

I quit Inazuma lol
I need to do four more time trial challenges on Watatsumi/Seirei for 20 primos. that and one more chest there gives me 20 more primos and 100% on Inazuma series 2.
I need one more chest on Tsurumi for 20 more primos.
That would finish off my Sakura tree, which is worth another 20 primos and two additional fates.

But I just got bored with Inazuma.

There is a part 3. It's not much of a climax, but then that's not what they were going for. I liked it but it was a lot more understated and character driven.

I know there's new stuff tomorrow but it's put down as an epilogue so I'm not really expecting to be suddenly floored. At the end of the day I enjoyed it, just as my first Lantern Rite and how hyped up it was I thought it would be more amped up.

Was just able to check, made a bit more progress but I'm TIRED lol. Inazuma just woops me, don't blame you for throwing in the towel. As of now I'm thankfully done with series 2, but series 1 is missing 29 chests, 2 tree levels, and 14 oculi for max Statue. The fog island has 1 combat trial that's in a fog area, and the final quest. Enkanomiya has 20 chests and 3 waypoints that I have no idea where to find.
