>Character kit in 1.0
skill infuses normal attacks. burst does a big hit of damage
>Character kit in 6.0
After using the elemental skill, the character gains the "effect with an unnecessarily long name" affect. When the "effect with an unnecessarily long name" effect is active, the character's normal attacks are converted into Random Cool-Sounding Words Here. When the character uses their elemental burst, unleashes Even More Cool-Sounding words, striking their foes down and dealing AoE damage.

wtf happened to HSR while we weren't watching?

Hypothetically speaking what if someone was to start playing or return to the game in like 6.0 or 6.1 so they'd miss the first wave of Nod-Krai characters (Ineffa/Chud/Lauma) would they just be fucked if they wanted to roll the remaining ones like Nefer and Bina? Not really sure if I like this idea of Hoyo starting to blatantly bundle two characters together where you're very clearly 'intended' to pull for both

>>533706579

That reminds me, is Durin confirmed Pyro?

>>533706413
Yeah of course I know what a PAWG is bwi

>>533706767
you would never make it past those

>>533706684
The reason they went with this approach is to create a shared, universal resource between characters instead of having both build stacks from doing the same things independently. This allows them to market Lauma and Nefer (or any similar characters) as a set, rather than making each one fully self-reliant. It’s not fundamentally different from previous stack mechanics we've seen in the game, what’s new is that different characters can now contribute to and benefit from the same stack source. This creates a system where they boost each other’s gains uniquely, forming an exclusive synergy that can’t be easily replicated, essentially locking in a premium, interdependent team.

Lunar reactions aren’t like dendro reactions. They’re not designed to open up flexible team comps; quite the opposite. They’re meant to push players toward not just pulling nod-krai characters, but using them together in tightly-defined setups. The trend now is clearly toward selling full teams, not standalone units. You might’ve noticed HSR pulling strong financial numbers sometimes even outperforming Genshin. Mihoyo noticed that too. Both ZZZ and Genshin are shifting toward team-focused monetization models.
If a character is completely self-contained, someone who only likes that one character can roll once and skip the rest of the cycle. Great for the player, sure, but not exactly good for revenue. But if a character feels incomplete or underwhelming without specific teammates, then even casual or taste-driven players are incentivized to roll for units they’d otherwise pass on, just to make their favorite work better. That kind of frustration isn’t ideal, but clearly the gains outweigh the losses from the company’s perspective.

Goodnight bwos. I guess some of you in here are pretty alrigt. Don't come to square station tomorrow.

WuWa is doing the same thing. I honestly don't think Genshin will indulge too much in it though.

If Bennett decided to stay in Natlan with either of his parents tribes would they accept him? Technically he’s a foreigner and I get the impression the tribes are very close knit communities.

>>533706736
Varesa, Iansan, Ineffa, Kokomi for now, I'm still thinking of using Sayu or Heizou with Iansan, Ineffa, Kokomi/Xingqiu instead of the cow.

>>533706419
i wouldn't worry about

>>533706907
You can see his vision in the trailer
Probably a sword as well, since all the craftable weapons are for the new characters (see the spear and the catalyst) and there are no a sword character among Nefer, Jahoda, Columbina and Varka

>

>>533706684
6.1 is leaked to be Durin and he's supposedly a 5* Xiangling/Bennett (good for everyone)

6.2 is Nefer and we don't know her kit.

6.3 is Columbina + one other 5* and bina is supposedly a meta support so good for everyone.

You can safely skip Ineffa+Flins I'd say and Lauma depends if Nefer is BLOOM based or not

>>533707013
what, no way.

>>533707307

No one actually likes exploration I dont know why people keep forcing this narrative. Most people leave maps at 40%. People only care about hype story moments, not running around killing a hilichurl camp for 2 primos, or solving a """""""""puzzle"""""""""" made for 3 year olds. Genshins popularity came from:
>the characters
>the story
>the combat system
Not the """""""""exploration""""""""".

I just downloaded wuwa

>>533705773
Nuke yimmi..

Are you prepared for Fatui did nothing wrong? Again?

>selling full teams
In a game where 1.X 4*s are still some of the strongest supports in the game which can still clear Abyss (the only hard content in the game).
Wherein we have artifact sets like VV and Cinder City, which let a unit function in almost any team and are AT WORST an armor stand for your Artifacts to trigger their bonuses.
We have 4*s coming out with full and complete kits C0 again (Iansan, Ororon, Ifa all of whom can easily use Cinder City too)
It doesn't fucking matter if they sell entire teams because individual units will still find room to slot into existing teams without their "best in slot support/DPS/etc."
You're making a mountain out of a molehill with this one.

so the Abyss is just the Chinese rip off of the Warp

>>533706684
It used to feel like every character was a kind of complete package, now you think things like
>is ineffa just an obligation to make later content less annoying
it doesn't feel like a cool, voluntary choice. Already worried my skirk and mav are going to be duds slotted into specific teams and nothing else. It just feels so good to do something dumb and slap Jean, Collei, Keqing, and Beidou together. It doesn't feel good to carbon copy Skirk+Furina+Escoffier+Shenhe. I know even with a random fun team my Skirk and Mav do better than a tarded keka but it doesn't feel the same. Nod-krai is turning me away, I think I'm just outgrowing genshin :/

>>533708089
Because it wasn't a mistake, he pushes narratives

>>533707667
Sandrone won't be playable in 6.X. She doesn't have a weapon just as Skirk's original model.
Columbina is clearly the core Nod-Krai character, since all the Lunar reactions are water based.
Varka, Nicole and Alice will probably have their own non-lunar mechanics in the second half of 6.X.

>>533708094
Thanks fren!

>>533707889
Ifa's a fantastic Anemo driver.
People discounted the fuck out of Ororon until they realized that yes, he is actually a real character and not a dumpster 4* like Freminet and Kachina.
C0, Ifa is stronger than Mizuki. I haven't ran the numbers, but last I heard he's also better C6 than her C6 AND gets more value from her weapon than she does.

>>533706684

>>533707949
is that her best team? it looks like a skip

>>533706986
I'm not sure if that's the direction they're going, but it is definitely worth noting how the Nod-Kirai characters are being designed to not really work well with most older supports.
The vast majority of their damage coming from their passives rather than their ability multipliers or reaction damage means that most supports don't really do much for them at all. Bonus dmg% is worthless, ATK buffs actually don't do that much in practice (hence why nobody is trying to cram Bennett into a Filins team), and even the absolute strongest off-field damage dealers like Yelan or Furina aren't as good as having the extra bonus damage onto those passives from Aino or whatever.
EM buffs are still relevant and RES shred is still relevant, but that's really about it. Lauma even does RES shred herself so between that and deepwood that's covered for her already.
(Of course, Lauma pushing Dendro so hard is making the old bloom/hyperbloom staples become more valuable again, but that's the only real exception so far.)

>>533707548
This game's story sucks dick and exploration where you get to freely use the characters you rolled and built without retarded restrictions is the best part of the game. Also spread your legs and show your feet, fucking onaholes shouldn't be this uppity

The only 'Anemo driver' worth comparing to is Sucrose and he's worse than Sucrose at the job, he just happens to have minor healing. Anemo drivers need to be lv90 which is a lot of investment for a mid 4 star when lots of people will already have lv90 Sucrose

>>533709134
wanderer pov

What the fuck, when did they ad this voiceline?

>>533707778
FUCK OFF

Pulling for Wanderer and getting Faruzan C2 (a character I genuinely liked) was disheartening. She’s needs C6 and only supports characters I had no interest in. In games I come from, character ownership reflects emotional investment, often rewarded with exclusive stories or relationship content. Genshin offers none of that. Everyone gets access to the same story regardless of pulls, reducing characters to tools for gameplay.
I was miserable, and it's all because the only value faruzan held to me as a player was gameplay. not only is she only useful at C6, she's primarily a support for characters I did not want to roll for or use. you'd never care about something like this in the games I come from.
and why would you? in those games, owning characters is a display of love. there's usually a substantial amount of exclusive story content locked behind owning characters. genshin doesn't do that. no relationship stories, no valentines' events, no marriage rings, no unique story based mechanics... best you get is voicelines and profile stories. all other content is available to everyone, so, why even bother owning a character? why would I roll for kirara when I can read her anecdote whenever I want? genshin fans think this is good because it makes the game more accessible but in reality it creates a very clear detachment between a character as a character in a work of fiction, and the thing that you actually roll for: a collection of numbers and mechanics existing in a fabricated world that exists purely to make the dopamine hit stronger.

Klee's dad is the most famous traveler/adventurer in all of Teyvat that leaves only 2 options
Traveler (aether) since they'd specifically say traveler and it could be heavily implied pagther is the dad via time travel shenanigans or alternatively Bennett since he swore he'd be the most legendary adventurer of all time. Again via time travel shenanigans.

>dumping resin
If you pull only the characters you want at a regular rate to steadily make teams instead of getting Constellations, you will need to dump resin on books. You do not get anywhere near enough from quests + events to 90 even that many characters.

If he was actually important we'd know a lot more about him. Hell, I wouldn't put past the theory that he's probably dead already considering how slow elves age.

I don’t play HSR. I do not know who Sparkle is nor do I know why multiple shitposters have been avatarfagging as her for over a year now and I’m too scared to ask.

>>533710181

>>533707908
Funny coincidence, I was also thinking of trying to make some kind of Collei aggravate team for Nod-Krai so I was really annoyed when I found out some of the bosses and general mechanics apparently are made specifically to promote electro charge teams instead
Not sure how much it extends beyond the world bosses which I admittedly just will mop up with an actual team if I need their drops, but I like playing slightly weaker teams when going through new maps just to try to recapture a sense of the earliest days in the game instead of one-shotting every hilichurl or treasure hoarder equivalent I come across. If (and that's an if) EC ends up being needed for a lot of things I guess I technically could just bring a hydro character into the aggr team I was going to use but at that point I'm not just basically playing hyperbloom instead, I'm also already deliberately building around the latest FOTM mechanic you're supposed to feel bad about in an attempt to push you to roll
I hope it'll work out since when things are said and done I'd rather just wait and experience the region for myself, but the first impressions I've gotten from seeing people talk about the new mechanics don't give me hope

Just skimmed the characters

Its a very safe horny "fetish". No one will dox you on twitter for saying you like feet.
But if you ever slightly hinted you like Hu Tao's and Furina's pettan they will try to find where you work to get you fired.

>>533709805
That's no reason to make 80% of the characters into EQ bots.

>>533709982
No it's the writers trying to make themselves look less like losers about having to rewrite everything every five minutes

god damn, this is someone's grandma btw...

Sumeru is still the worst region by an overwhelming margin.

>>533710002
IS THIS A FUCKING CHELD INT HE THUMBNAIL???????????
AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE STOP IT

>>533710279
She is a cheeky "le wacky dastardly joker but not really" kind of a character. The game likes to emphasize camera angles that show her feet a lot.

>>533710289
>the dendro lady wants nilou to be good right?
No, they both are shit lol

People who like brown sex goddesses are the most oppressed race. It’s not gay men, it’s not female players, it’s not even lolipedos, it’s us. There’s literally nothing to roll for 99% of the time. It’s just mualani in genshin, nekomata in zzz who is a 1.0 character, and no one in hsr. Life is hard

ngl they hard boiled the shit out of this area, the music was amazing, tons of things to do

>>533710074
I've had an attraction to feet since around 13, but I never knew feet could stink until I was literally 16. I feel both disgusted by feet and attracted to them, but only anime feet can be pure and rosy and perfectly free of all germs, dead skincells, etc....

>>533710527
she was wasted on a filler patch because of Natlan's poor performance so she wasn't very memorable in the end

I love EQ bots.
Supports that aren't EQ bots are just eating away at my DPS field time. The quicker you can get in and out to deploy your buffs and utilities, the better.

oh wow now i can't unsee it lmfao

>>533708278
Dependent on the release order I'm (probably) not abstaining from rolling until Columbina releases but I do intend to skip both of the characters coming next patch and I'm not really sold on Ineffa either, so if they all end up being part of some kind of ponzi scheme where I'm expected to roll for one character so I can use the other then it's honestly more tempting to just ignore them all instead

>>533710592
BD2 also had a Goblin Slayer collab where their Amber/March 7th equivalent character gets gobbed

Skirk is so thoughtful...

>>533708937
Even if I loathe it I have to commend Hoyo for their ability to conjure up new mechanics that somehow shill their latest gimmick character while simultaneously making 95% of the existing roster utterly useless through some other mechanic or specific niche
I saw someone point out it's funny how Ineffa's a shielder meant to be played in LC comps in the LC region, but the LC region and its abysses will also feature enemies that require party-wide healers instead of shielders. Feels like they've really gone close to as far as they can without outright pulling a 'add X character to your party to continue'

>>533710527

Maybe they shouldn't have had her come out of nowhere 2 years later while having zero story presence whatsoever for people to have cared about her.

There's a reason people still talk about characters like Kafka and Firefly years after their release.

>>533711050
Flins is going to need a similar last minute buff or he'll be forgotten too

>>533710527
How come youre so obsessed you constantly keep posting this?

I love this game it really soothes my AGP especially Wilhelmina and Scheherazade ^_^

You do realize you can say this for literally every new character?
Look how fast people moved on from navia, chlorinde, artetroon, varesa, mizuki, escoffee, etc
It’s literally fotm all the time, that’s the nature of gachas whose main money maker is releasing new characters every patch

>>533711275
those are all filler characters
skirk is different

I still like skirk.
I just dont think theres anything to really discuss about her.

>>533711275
Only Mizuki and Varesa are true, because the first is a gimped brick and the other is flamed because of her animations and being cowgirl Shaggy.

Imagine if Adventure rank.was increased

I only rolled for skirk becaue of her honkai bodysuit and she's now a brick because I skipped escoffier

>>533711371
I remember when kafkakeks were saying she was going to be the highest selling Gacha character of all time and yet ended up flopping each time instead lmao

>>533711275
And yet people haven't moved on from Mondstadt and Liyue characters despite those being the oldest characters...

Mhmmmmm shota cocks

>>533711465
I wish Varesa was brown

>>533711014
I haven’t even kept up with the enemy/boss spoilers for 6.0 yet because I’m too busy worrying about 5.8 SO
Are the bosses regular shill nonsense (even including stuff like papilla or overseer device in this category) or are they more like the 5.8 cactus where you’re fucked unless you bring a specific reaction?

>>533711669
No Skirk that's illegal

Plenty of Genshin characters are still talked about and popular outside of meta.

There is actually, combat would be less fun if they weren't.

begone foul creature

I knew all this as far as 3.0, but i kept going in the hope that the developers might change their minds someday, that maybe, just maybe, they'd try something different, more to my liking. that never happened. natlan was different, but it wasn't different in the ways that mattered, and everyone complained about it anyways. nod-krai is a return to form... which means I resent it even more. when I saw that teaser, and realized that I didn't care in the slightest about even a single one of these characters that hadn't been previously revealed, I knew that it was over. I was done. I wasn't going to wait for a half-hearted storyline to give these characters a basic foundation that would never receive any serious development for years, I wasn't going to wait for any designs I cared about to turn out to be 4* or not even be playable in 6.x at all, and certainly I was not going to wait for the disappointment of experiencing gameplay woes. as the great scott the woz once put it: I'm not going to wait to be disappointed, this is not a pregnancy. how many times have I told myself "this time it'll be good for sure", waited patiently, and been met with disappointment? why would I think that this time, it would be any different? at this point, the problem is me.
so, yeah, there's no point. genshin will never change into the kind of game I want it to be. interacting with the fans isn't worth it, if anything it's made my life worse.
so i put the game to rest in the last area i truly and sincerely enjoyed with all my heart. there were ones added after that I also enjoyed, but with th ecaveat that I was always thinking "I'm playing genshin instead of anything else right now" I stayed up all night to complete enkanomiya, compile all the lore, and post about it online, because I cared so much.


I'll be playing umamusume or something. it's not ideal, but it's closer to what I want out of a gacha game than this.

>>533712096
Mualani is dogshit and one of the 3 chars I regret rolling for, the other 2 are Nilou and Emilie.

>>533712206
Not recomended. Its another "dont forget these characters and roll for them in the future" emotionally abusing slop

>>533712206
If you mean the Albedo and Ineffa archon quests yes you can do summer without spoilers, if you mean the end of Natlan AQ then no it'll spoil some stuff

>>533712315
They updated Skirk, so there's no chance they release him like that once it's finally time for his banner.

>>533712309
Every leaker confirmed it, and because she has a PV it means she won't be playable at all. I will be dropping this game as soon as it's confirmed.

>>533712089
>we need to copy the game that is crashing and burning

>>533712267
That Genshin isn't an actual story based gacha with gacha mechanics like dating, marriage, character exclusive quests, valentines... It's LARPing as a console game. it wants to be a game and that is the goal it will work towards eternally. the characters aren't things you're supposed to get invested in and want to develop a strong connection with but numbers and mechanics delivered in a pretty package. events, the main story, the characters, it's all just a means of providing that "console" experience. genshin is not an experience or a work of art, it is a toy, it fulfills the basic need for entertainment in a package that is free and easily accessible.
in real gacha games, owning characters is a display of love. there's usually a substantial amount of exclusive story content locked behind owning characters. genshin doesn't do that. no relationship stories, no valentines' events, no marriage rings, no unique story based mechanics... best you get is voicelines and profile stories. all other content is available to everyone, so, why even bother owning a character? genshin fans think this is good because it makes the game more accessible but in reality it creates a very clear detachment between a character as a character in a work of fiction, and the thing that you actually roll for: a collection of numbers and mechanics existing in a fabricated world that exists purely to make the dopamine hit stronger.
i do not want to play with a toy. if all i want is entertainment, hundreds upon hundreds of actual games exist to fulfill that purpose. i want an experience. i want to connect with people who like the same things i do. i want to feel feelings that are difficult for me to feel in real life, for various reasons. genshin cannot provide that because fundamentally speaking, that is not its goal. people speak of waifus and husbandos, but there are no waifus to be found here. only chests, primogems, oculi, and thousands of worthless artifacts.

sorry im drunk

>>533710286

You can force this if you really want to because Collei's application rate is slow enough to overtake Dendro with Hydro like this

SNEK WIFE!

why the hell is there no test zone where you can charge your ults to try new characters?
it so stupid, im not going to level up every single pull just to try it.
hell they could also throw test dummies with dps recording there.
its baffling how there is nothing like that in the game yet considering how much side content they made over time, it should be a no brainer.

>>533712679
i blame nahida for the dogshit state of dendro

hope nefertitty can banish nahider for good and save dendro with her mommy milkers

>>533712679
She will be exactly as good as every other character they've released since Natlan.

They will put a boss in Stygian Onslaught which is fucking miserable if you don't have her, and she will trivialize it.

When the bosses change, she will be irrelevant.

I don't mind it being suboptimal since it's just for doing story stuff, not like I'm going to try to force a SO clear with it
My main concern is just that I'll run into too many encounters where it feels like "playing the game the wrong way" rather than "deliberately playing a weaker team"

>>533712309

we have been asking for that since they added to stupid punching bag in inazuma

the thing is that for years they basically added nothing the players asked for, they only started listening during natlan, they will add it eventually but you will have to be patient, they have 4 years of things to fix

>>533713376
I think Varesa and Skirk were both pretty skippable if you care about Stygian. Maybe Chasca too, despite the Aeonblight.

>>533713376
I get what you mean by this but there are characters that still manage to remain relevant past certain designated shill bosses
Mostly supports, but the principle still applies

>>533713346

Emilie already mogged Nahida so it shouldn’t be too hard for nefertitty to gigamogg her

>>533712975
Because this is a mobile game retardbro, every NPC needs to be copypasted or the game's size would get retarded.

>>533713346
I can't see them adding two Dendro off field applicators in the same region, especially if they're based around the same reaction. She'll most likely be a DPS

>>533713481
what part of "Snek wife" you don't understand son

Did someone say 'what the players asked for'? Let's see, so far the evidence suggests that 6.0 has...
>No epitomized path for 4 stars
>No customisable standard pool
>No replayable events
>Daily lockouts on domains remain a thing outside of whatever the featured limited banner characters use
>Still can't do the same weekly boss multiple times
>Still no way to obtain old event weapons
>Resin recipe changed instead of adding resin overflow
>Still no way to use condensed resin for world bosses or any other kind of sweep/multiclear
>Pity counter still not displayed despite this being the case in their other games
>Still no way to convert talent and ascension materials
>Still locked at 60 FPS

>>533712096
>mualani
wants vape. none of the characters you listed even do much to buff her.

doesn't do normal attacks if she can help it and doesn't get anything meaningful from yelan's buffs. hydro options currently kind of suck for her in general, though.

this is literally not true, wuwa's npc's look good and their game isn't that big

on my pc genshin takes more than a 100gb, do you realize how insane that is? why does it take 100gigs when games like the witcher 3 takes 30

there is something wrong with genshin's optimization

>>533712679
Elemental Mastery and Bloom damage are tied on the character's level. The devs did not increase the max level from what it looks like in the beta sadly. Increasing the max level to 100 would've made Lauma and Flins stronger.

but my gut feeling and years of experience playing Genshin Impact force me to assume she’ll be Standard pool
>>533714181
skipping Lauma. reckon Nefer will be either Burn or Aggravate related. something totally unrelated to Bloom

>>533714105
Hard to tell when we haven't had a chance to actually fight the bosses and thus are forced to just read what they do, but based on the text descriptions it seems like a 4 with a potential to be 3 depending on how lenient they are when it comes to allowing regular reactions to fulfil the same job as the lunar ones
SO will always be shill-y by design but the leeway you're given will often come down to which random bullshit gimmicks they might have thrown on top of the bosses on stage 5 (you can brute force stage 4 and lower)

Abyss looks fairly manageable in case you're curious

They dont even bother marketing standard characters anymore though. Mizuki was just added without any months long build up. Makes no sense to have Nefer in that video

Genshin for this feel?

>>533714284
At C6 Aino is actually really good with him
At >C6 Then Aino sucks major ass, but because Flins has really weird rotation times (roughly 16sec rotations) yelan dosen't work great with him. Also yelan sub dps damage in 2025 sort of sucks. So Aino is comparable surpsingly.
Freener sucks with all NK characters because they don't use dmg%

>Couldn't I just replace her with Freener or Yelan?
Their buffs do nothing for the primary damage type of both Ineffa and Flins, Aino's buffs aren't strong but they work for the team so she's designed to be better than existing off-field hydro for that team specifically

i haven't seen neuv ai poster in a while, where is he?

>>533712679
Bloom was only a cheap investment back in early 3.X. It hasn't aged well in this ST boss shilling era. I feel like her top team is going to be even more expensive than Chud's if she's supposed to be used alongside Nefer/Columbina/Nilou
>inb4 but Nefer will save Aggravate copium
I really doubt that with how Lunar reactions seem to focus on transformative hydro reactions.

Why not use Mona with Flins?

>>533714858

>>533715116
they can't make bloom good against SRlT because if they ever did it becomes the best multi-target team in the game by a mile (like what happened back in early sumeru

>>533715142
I don't think her omen does anything for lunar EC damage

>>533715142
Because the world is cruel and unjust which means Mona is useless in most serious settings

>>533714884
It also doubly hurts considering that Dehya was far closer to what people thought Natlanese women would be like. I still remember the leaks that said that the Pyro Archon would've been Dehya on steroids.

>>533715116
>Bloom was only a cheap investment back in early 3.X.

no it fucking wasn't, it didn't even do much of anything without Nilou and her 400% damage bonus, now Hyperbloom was a cheap investment.

bloom just on it's own was about as bad as Burning back in 3.X

No it fucking wasen't. There was an entire mechanic called Nascent:Gleam and this screen.
The intention was to lock NK behind 3 characters but they realized their players would literally revolt and that the deer would have 0 teams on release.

>>533715142
Lunar Reactions are being used as a way to filter dmg% buffs, so Mona and Furina are worthless to him. It's basically a "roll for Columbina or cope with hydro Kachina lol" type of thing. Basically, all he cares about is res shred, EM and LC dmg buffs. Thus why Sucrose is one of his best supports.

>>533715590
I call you mindbroken

>>533715202
No, because you're already going to have plenty of EM from Ineffa and Flins' passive, but you have very little %damage because normal damage% doesn't work on LC. +35% with this little saturation is about +27% raw which is a lot

>>533715116
Lauma/Nefer/Columbina/Nilou team is so ridiculous. I believe you.

>>533715364
They can certainly make Nefer's kit as niche as Skirk or Nilou's to make lunar bloom work for ST, just not bloom in general. iirc Lauma only does lunar bloom damage via her E, so it's not something being that well explored in her kit imo

>>533715795
Same reason like as all the previous AQs (nothing)

>>533715690
No that was Durin.
The two big characters of Nod Krai are supposed to be Durin and Columbina. Like Neuve and Furina or Xilonen and Mavu.
Lauma has always been bloomslop.

>>533715767
dmg% like furina doesn't work on reactions themselves. only the raw element
which is fine when it comes to vape/melt because the higher your pyro/cryo/hydro number is = higher the reaction is using said number. but any other reaction the dmg% doesnt help out

>>533716629
damn you're dumb

Are they actually going to postpone the second map all the way until 6.3? Don't give me the 'm-maybe we get a Liyue map' because the 6.0 beta already has two new placeholder landmasses for two future islands north of Nod-Krai while Liyue appears unchanged
What are we even meant to be doing on the game if 12-15 weeks between each area becomes the norm when before Natlan it used to be closer to 6-9

>>533716629

>>533715401
I obviously meant Nilou Bloom, not bloom alone. Many people got away with using cheap teammate options for Nilou in early 3.X, including myself. The thing is, once AoE shilling stopped, the more investment Nilou teams required. In 5.X, it was genuinely better to let Nilou being wheelchair'ed by Escoffier or the like. Lauma is changing this, but I still feel this is another investment trap with Lauma, Nefer and Columbina.

yes but also Kachina would've been meta if she was hydro.

>>533713894
Honestly this was my impression if you have a particularly good Varesa or Clorinde and at least one of the more decent hyperbloom comps. Lauma doesn't actually add that much standard hyperbloom damage and unless the boss has like 30 million health, it shouldn't be necessary to rely on the bloom mechanic to kill it even on dire.

>>533717031
yes but the difference is that the replacement is in 6.3 and the archon instead of 6.1 and a DJ

I've told you forever that we will have a Garlemald type situation. Nod-Krai is just a teaser of the sci-fi region that Snezh is going to be.

>>533714463
I'm planning on skipping Lauma too but I'm going to be pissed if she ends up being the Citlali-equivalent for Nefer. Seems plausible that they won't need each other, though, as as Lauma's mechanic consumes lunar bloom stacks so it would be odd if they both played around a resource that they mutually have to consume while also being highly optimal together.

>>533716870
ah, gotcha. i found Nilou Bloom to be pretty damn premium for most Sumeru teams where you used Kuki.

Nilou, Nahida, Kokomi, ect

i just used Nilou, Nahida, EM Barbara, and EM Yaoyao myself but i went for c2r1 on the 5 stars which kept them viable for most abyss cycles occasionally i would replace them for my Keqing Aggravate team and i am pretty sure i used Neuvillete in every abyss for almost 2 years, maybe at most not using him once or twice if there was particularly anti-hydro things though sometimes i still did it anyway.

Post your waifu staring at other men crotch

We are not just seeing a decline in quality in Genshin, but across Hoyo games in general. Whats happening is cracks are starting to show in Mihoyo, and to fix that they have to cut back on content
>HSR is basically only getting quality main story, the rest is slop
>Genshin has quality falling across the board
>ZZZ is well....
You get the point. 5+ years of meeting 6 week schedule deadlines is probably tiring out alot of their staff.

>>533718814
>everything we wanted to have for Genshin

I don't play HSR, but I do play Genshin. HSR doesn't offer anything more than Genshin that I feel is missing; in fact, I find it quite traditional and shoddy, while I think Genshin is the better product.

MHY hasn't created products that compete with each other, despite the stupid opinions I read here every day.

Stop projecting your own ideas, whether real or biased, when discussing with other people: they're unreliable and quickly fall apart when you meet someone with even a modicum of critical thinking.

both genshin and hsr have reduced the number of events from what I've seen. Bennett's current event is only so long because it's gonna be permanent
>After this event ends, the Story Quest "Sunspray Summer Resort" can still be accepted and completed normally.
As for music, HSR is usually uninspired aside from the vocal themes, but Genshin's music quality has also dropped lately desu. I don't play ZZZ, so no comment on it.

That's a (you) problem. Majority of people you survey are extremely satisfied by HSR's current state and are praising the current story to high heaven. There is very little negativity in HSR's community compared to our game, and that has always been the case.

>>533719227
>HSR has every single QOL feature people wanted in Genshin, from material domains remaining open every day, to resin overflow, to more free premium currency rewards, to a simple "mark as junk" option for artifacts
>HSR also has an extremely engaging story and cast, and it actually feels like the writers have had a plan since the beginning and are executing it flawlessly
>These are things that Genshin doesn't need for some reason

People like you that just smile and take it in the ass from a group of developers that actively hate working on their own game is why things will never get better.

They wanted to double down on zzz instead of EoSing it, because they think it could be saved when the foudations of the game is what made it flop(black culture) and they never bothered to change it
They reap what they sow

this might sound insane for you but HSR is hard carried by its story. literally the only thing that game has going for itself. like, think about it for a moment. there's literally nothing HSR does better than other gacha, gameplay? sucks. characters? there's a lot of gachas there with more fun interactions. and even story, it's strongest point, gets mogged by shit like BA.

lmfao
if youre going to shitpost at least use something believable like FGO Lostbelts

>>533719842
Funniest is him saying this
>HSR's concert tickets being sold out instantly while genshin isn't
isn't even true but then anons are replying as if it's true

Is he just replying to himself or are anon retarded

The overall revenue of gachas has dropped in the last two years, Mihoyo has gotta reduce the budget the games have to keep investing the same amount of capital in Da Wei's VR metaverse dream.

>>533720041
>gets mogged by shit like BA.
You mean the game that hasnt gotten a story update in 2 years? Fuck off you stupid fucking retard.

I never said Genshin is perfect and doesn't have problems: I said it's the product I like best from MHY. You are the one who started comparing them with other products from the same company.

I also find it depressing and hypocritical how you're complaining with the anon above about negativity in the Genshin community, when this discussion started the moment you came forward complaining that Genshin "is the only gacha without [debatable opinion]."

As I said before, bait used to be believable.
I'm open to discussions, but only if they're done using my brain: I understand that I'm perhaps in the least ideal place for that.

>>533719689
>HSR has every single QOL feature people wanted in Genshin, from material domains remaining open every day, to resin overflow, to more free premium currency rewards, to a simple "mark as junk" option for artifacts
this is true, but gachas in general are designed around engagement metrics rather than legitimate QoL, so you are praising skin cancer because it is not colorectal cancer.
>HSR also has an extremely engaging story and cast, and it actually feels like the writers have had a plan since the beginning and are executing it flawlessly
It's honestly terrible because it tries to be dark and serious, but still has mountains of moeslop, edgelord bullshit and dei ex machina that are somehow as predictable as they are contrived. this isn't even getting into the fact that that game exposition dumps even harder than genshin. the "amazing" last was 95% dialogue about how phainon was a badass (he jobbed like 10 seconds into a cutscene after thousands of years of farming his friends for exp, amazing character, great writing lol) and 5% reused bosses.
>These are things that Genshin doesn't need for some reason
I guess I'd take more QoL, but the only thing I really want is an equivalent to ZZZ's battle tower since that's actually fun

What hours are these?

Bennett's adventure team keeps growing. Even HP scalars are joining the crew now.

If hsr is so good then why is it flopping
>HSR January-July 2024 = $605m
>HSR January-July 2025 = $381m
> -37%

85k on shilled content clears anything besides Dire SO
you only need more for Dire or when you start trying to force teams onto non-shilled fights

this might be the best ineffa team atm.
don't think I'll even need Flins for dire clears with this

Where do you think ZZZ keep getting the budget for their relaunches?

>zzz
i know people meme about lmb spam in the early game but come on, would you really say your first 30min of genshin that consisted in you hitting hillichurls with your silver blade endlessly are the totality of the combat system? yenless actually has an engaging gameplay when you get to the endgame. not great, not hard, not deep, but still enjoyable, much like genshin
though i will say that it gets boring really fast if you don't consistently get new characters. here at genshin you might find people playing a character of 2 years and not growing bored of it, whereas there 6 months in and miyabi no longer feels 1/4 as fun as she was before

I quit playing immediately after Natlan's main story ended.
Did they add a lot since then? Is it worth it to reinstall?

>making 500m+ a year is considered flopping

>>533720757
mfw f2ps find out that bosses have mechanics and that their hp will keep going up

>>533720041
Why doesn't Genshin also get to have a good story to hard carry it through its problems?

It says a lot about Honkai Star Rail that it literally has nothing to do and people couldn't be more satisfied because the story is so peak.

Genshin wouldn't have half the negativity it currently breeds if our story and writing were just as good as HSR's.

>>533720619

You clearly don't play BA since decagrammaton is an extension of the story not to mention all the prequels with Vol. 1. Prequels are part of the story.

>intentionally take weaker characters like Kamisato Ayato to the AQ so that I don't kill enemies too fast and miss out on conversations

It's over. I can't recover from this.

Still not using troonrina.
Still not sitting at 50% hp and then dying when using burst.

Fuck Furina as a concept.

simple. fat xiao is a fucking hack. like shaoji is also a hack but he's not obsessed with breaking expectations and actually delivers the hype moments people want
he would never let a hyped character like capitano be the nothingburger we got, for instance. lorewise genshin still mogs hsr aeonshit easily but they simply can't execute anything well. mod krai will be the final test to see if that fat fuck can deliver

>>533720838
not expecting to clear dire is weird if you're essentially rolling on every new character. and if you're not rolling on every new character, well, then you WILL have to use non-shilled teams. also weird just given that 85k was doable in fontaine
