Board 8 > Genshin Impact Topic 13: Just Ice? I thought this was the nation of hydro!

(+) Yeah! (+)

3 Fates for 3 years is not gonna change huh

Nor do I believe it needs to. I've heard lots of community bellyaching over this across the last 2 weeks, and it's just a lot of raging over nothing.

Congrats to Genshin Impact making 5 billion dollars faster than any mobile game ever. No wonder our rewards arent too amazing compared to other recent Hoyoverse games

This new map might be my favorite one in the game.

Hopping around as a fish needed a little getting used to, but using them as launch pads is pretty nice. I like it.

Now I have Fontaine and the new Liyue area to explore. Started the new Lantern Rite the other day at least. Wonder if the NPCs will be hanging around after each part or not

I only dipped in there a few times to get the new ore and boss for Xianyun. Was very glad the Lantern Rites quest auto travels you across most of the map for it's destination

After part 3, found a bunch of the playable characters hanging around.

Hell yeah C5 Charlotte from a free Standard banner wish. Just need 1 more for her

Lmao epilogue for Lantern Rite was good stuff

Does that mean the full Lantern Rite is out now? Guess I'll go do it then.

Gamings Lantern Rite story was pretty good stuff. Guess we arent too far away from the next rerun banners, but the wait for other new characters feels soooo long. Im at 666 Intertwined Fates not counting the premium shop ones I can get

Im not sure what kind of build to give Charlotte. Shes C5, but I dunno if I want her to be a sub dps or a pure support role with her heal or what. Not any point giving her Golden Troupe if I ever use her with Furina since the set only counts being used on 1 of the party members if I remember right

The in-game set recommend thing suggest Emblem of Severed Fate and/or Gladiators Finale for her.

I user Charlotte in two teams.

Navia/Ningguang/Furina
Ayaka/Kazuha/Furina

So just Noblesse or Tenacity of the Millileth to buff Ayaka/Navia.

ER/Atk/CR cus she needs a lot of energy and Fav.

I dont have some of those characters, but I might try some stuff out with her. Im so bad at hoarding artifacts Im constantly at the max and theyre entirely 5*. I feel like Ive changed so many of them into different artifacts now and they just keep piling up still. Working on building some characters more properly and setting up some newer ones to play with since theres still a bit of waiting til Chiori or anyone else I want

Is this a thing, because I don't see that in the description. Or are you thinking of Song of Days Past?

It looks like I was thinking of something else entirely after checking more into it

This would be good 2pc/2pc but not as full sets. I'd second TotM or Noblesse for that.

I don't think she really outputs enough damage to go for a sub-DPS build really

Whats Yaes best artifact set these days?

Golden Troupe in general. Gilded Dreams with Dendro

Hmm wonder which Id be better using her under. I do have Nahida, but otherwise for Dendro I think Ive just got C6 Lumine, C6 Collei and C0 Nahida. My Yae is C2 though from insane luck/accidents way back just doing a couple singles for Layla so I should get around to getting her decent artifacts already. Put it off for so long

Yae/Nahida is a strong combo. Either add Fischl or a Hydro character and you're set. Then ideally Anemo or Dendro healer.

I'm building Yae now and it seems like it mostly comes down to whatever the best substats you have. Even 2pc/2pc of ATK, EM, ER, dmg% sets are competitive with 4pc as long as substats are good. And meeting her ER needs which is highly variable depending on your team. Kind of annoying tbh.

Recently I've been playing her with Raiden/Chevreuse/Xiangling and it's really fun. Easy rotation that flows well.

Also tried Yae/Xianyun/Furina/Dendro MC(cus dont have Nahida), with Yae plunging instead of bursting. And it is also pretty busted.

Same Gilded set always.

My Fischl hasnt been used in so long Im apparently using a 4 piece Wanderers Troupe on her. Ive got lots of Hydro to work with though my 2nd Abyss comp is locked in at Furina/Noelle/Yelan/Navia. That team clears Abyss Floor 12 fights for me in under 2mins so if I actually build a second team properly Ill be set. Maybe Yae, Nahida, Xingqiu for heals/hydro and Fischl or Yaoyao could work. Alternatively I have Nilou I could pair with Nahida as well.

Don't play Yae with Nilou lol

Yae/Nahida/Fischl/Yaoyao is perfectly fine

You can also run Zhongli if you have him and would rather do that than have a healer. I'm running Yae with Tighnari which is a bit better for that, but he's still not a bad spot for your defense.

Also with your lineup it sounds like you've got enough hydro and dendro to just make Nilou bloom work if you just need any second team

Oh yeah, shielder is great for Yae cus just sucks if you get interrupted while setting up totems. Kirara is also a great option.

I dont have Geo Daddy still. His banner was always bad timing

I've also seen people use Diona with Dendro teams because her C6 gives a big EM buff to the team, but Kirara is probably easier and would also let you use an anemo if Nahida is busy.

I think Ive got a C1 Kirara now? Also not built like 95% of my characters through my own laziness

Cooking event is reminding me how bad Mika's voice is

Mikas English voice is indeed bad. The less I see of him the better. Shouldve used Collei for the final cooking day instead

I would have loved more Fischl/Mona for Mondstadt crew instead

Welp. It only took me 3+ years, but I finally 36*'d the abyss.

No thanks to the Blessing, 5 5-star characters, arguably the most meta 4-stars...and Kujou Sara.

Congratulations! Mono electro and burn-melt? Interesting choices. Dunno what all you have at your disposal, but hey, you made it work.

I suffered at the hands of one of the time-wasting bosses or I'd have 36. I usually don't consider it worth my while to go back and try again, but ruin serpent and wenut are both bad news on that front.

Missing some top-o'-the-line characters, but I've got the vast majority of the roster. Even got 13 5-star weapons.

I normally will re-try if I'm close to the next primo level, especially this time since I haven't gotten 36 before. I spent a couple hours last cycle trying. Guess luck was on my side this week.

I find it interesting how you stop leveling everyone at 85. Not, like, 89?

Genshin drip marketing for Arlecchino now. Hype!

Chiori/Itto banner 4*s are Yun Jin, Gorou and Dori. Not too great, but I dont have any of them at C6 at least

That's a lot of Geo...

Skipping this banner although it's tempting to try the other new one for a chance at Eula.

But I really want to save for who 4.7 might be.

Based. She's not actually "good" in the conventional sense, but I love her character enough not to care.

I'm full-skipping on all banners. And I've been spending most of this current patch upgrading my characters to 9/9/9, so hell if I know what I'm gonna do next patch. Go back to the artifact grind, I guess. (Sidenote: when I started the game, the Mondstadt talent domain didn't bother me at all. Now it can melt in a fire.)

I was thinking about fishing for Gorou cons but Dori and Yun Jin no thanks. I don't think I have enough primos banked to get both Hunter's Path on the new banner and Arle unless I luck out on a 50/50. Wake me up in 4.6 I guess

Ive got 700 Fates so no worries about the future for me. Im getting Chiori and Arlecchino guaranteed though hopefully Ill win coin flips on both

I'm down to like 100 wishes worth of primos and 100 in starlight. So I'd be cutting it close. I splurged a lot on Xianyun banner going for Faruzan cons and only got to C4. Got C6 Gaming though and honestly that has turned out to be a great investment because he is fun as hell and pretty strong.

53 pulls and I won the coin flip!

C0 Chiori
C6 Gorou (got him 3 or 4 times)
Lions Roar 100000000000
Favonius Greatsword
1 Dori (C1 now)

My Yun Jin is still C0. Im definitely done on this one though because Gorou is maxed and Dori isnt anyone Id ever use.
