I'm guessing the REEEEEEEEEing has gotten out of hand.
 
Currently doing Raiden Shoguns character quest and I am so checked out from this bitch. But hey, 60 primos. Her gameplay is fun but I can't stand her retarded ass.

I did Zhonglis before that and it was actually quite good, plus new boss to throw my ass at. Maybe that's why I'm jaded lol.

Also no Neuvi yet but I got a couple 4* catalysts if anything.

If I didn't have sour feelings from the tale of Inazuma: Eternity Kink Overload, I might have found Ei, the boomer retard, endearing for how far behind the times she is.

But alas... Primos.

I need to see the context for that, because one thing I noticed one group of fans of one particular game (or rather company now) can be fucking insufferable. it's nothing new in itself, with a big enough game and reputation, you inevitably will be attracting a lot of FUCKING NEWFAGS first times. doesn't most of them most of them are, let alone everyone, but statistically you'll have (proportionally) large minority of loud dipshits thinking it's their job to fight yet another shitty consolewar. every "community" has them, but for the most part they're irrelevant due to small size and lower popularity.

Look at the flags, jeets and SEAs, its always these niggers.
 
Man, screw the current genshin abyss, the whole line up seems to be designed to be most frustrating as possible.

-Double lava golem -> double elite female eremite -> double consecrated beasts (lol)
-double geovishap -> primo geovishap (want shield)
-Goldenflame dino (need good hydro)
-Papilla mimiflora (need natlan/burn/fast element hits)
-Wolflord (need geo)
-Aeondrake blight (need bow)

The first one is particularly absurd. Remember when Double beasts was the worst sumeru had to offer? Now they're the third wave.

Papilla is now my most hated boss cause it seems to gatekeep 90% of the game and have no weakness.

-Shield requires 72 elemental hits (nightsoul counts as 3) and wastes some good time
-If you don't break the shield it explodes and kill you
-If you tank or avoid the explosion, it keeps it's 70% universal resist
-Yes this boss in abyss has 70% universal resist
-If you stun it it only loses half resist so it keeps 35%
-Attack inflict "attrition" that deals fixed 10% hp damage over time (didnt even know this one)
-teleports randomly
-Morphs into different bosses and use their strongest attacks, capable of 2-3 shotting you
-Top 8 highest normal boss HP in the game btw

I dont get it. Most bosses in genshin that waste time/force counters aren't that strong but get past the shield and papilla is a relatively hard and tanky boss. it killed me at least 3 times.

(second team got waaay too close to failing)

Hoyo is really balancing abyss around neuvilete powerlevel and making me regret skipping every Natlan dps.

Why do you guys put in so much effort on the spiral abyss? Getting the full 36 stars instead of 34 doesn't even get you an extra wish per patch

Probably the same reason why some people 100% games. The satisfaction of the completion. Or it's a test of their kit and the effort it took to build it. Or staying competitive.

And primos. Them delicious primos.

Then again, this is just assumption from someone who has only completed floor 5.

This is a team-restrictive abyss that hard checks dps, basically what "real" endgame content should be. This cycle is what I would argue is the limit on how much Genshin will push accounts as a prototype floor 13.

I think this is a bad omen and the start of much worse practices. The only reason abyss is "fair" is cause abyss buffs are minor and you can improvise a lot of team comps. There is some undeniable powercreep yeah, but there are also better supports now.

Fontaine had the pneuma/ousia that was mostly easy to bruteforce, so you really didn't need 3 fontaine units to stun the dancer bots or anything, so hoyo learned better and made Natlan mechanics much more extreme. Schnezinaya will 100% feature an exclusive national gimmick that is be even more mandatory to deal with certain bosses.

Also, the 5.3 abyss will actually have floor 12 reach a new recond in hp bloat, but add blessing that gives something like 75% pyro damage on normals and 75% if you use nightsoul, which are clearly targeted towards Arlechino and Mavuika. Afaik floor 12 never had an absurdly targeted specific buff like this.

(Note that this is exclusive to floor 12, it's not the moon blessing. Hope everyone has arlechino and a natlan dps)

It will also feature papilla again and weyob. If this is the future of genshin's endgame then it learned the worst lessons from star rail.

It's not about 50 gems for me. The real "endgame" of genshin is doing 5 artifact domains per day for months and abyss is the only way to convince yourself it was "worth it".

Abyss is also like, the only true challenge in the game and can be genuinely fun if you don't get tilted. I like seeing numbers go up and watching my team do a perfect rotation and kill a super unfair boss in less than a minute. Winning with a non meta team feels especially good cause you know it was your grind + skill that carried.

Call it autistic but there's something satisfying about seeing the teams you built clear the bullshit they throw at you for spiral abyss. Especially if you're not worried about making meta teams, optimizing every single artifact substat, weapon, etc. You didn't need the current banner 5star to finish the 12th floor.

...of course that was back when the abyss had bullshit but was reasonable. Modern abyss just keeps bumping up enemy HP.

gotta admit, the way genshin handles "challenge" combined with it's gameplay is a fast track to break my controller in half. not many games have that effect, so I don't bother for my (and my hardware's) sake. at least it's easy to ignore, if abyss would be a bigger part of the game (fuck IT) I'd probably have quit years ago.

any "challenge" you can defeat (or make much easier) by opening your wallet is imo moot anyway. I don't mind if anyone does, but if you do keep that shit contained.

This is what I did what 5.2 Abyss. It's not just the shield for 12-2-2, it's even when that boss transforms, you can't even deal damage to it in that duration.

The 12-2-2 boss, as long as you have more than 35k, you'll live. Kuki can survive if C6 or having Barbara C6 off-field.. But this Abyss pretty much dps check and more time wasting mechanic if you are doing it "wrong". Or well, having Chasca and an offield Natlan like Ororon. Some can say MHY being bullshit with "Oh what if we make an Abyss requires previous 5* banner when that banner just ends a week ago".

I don't even like first side of current floor 12, because they are literally asking you using both Geo and Hydro.
If I'm being honest, I'm probably getting Clorinde next to get that fast elemental attack, still not quite feeling for Mavuika.

For the ZZZ players, start grinding everyone's ultimate since they get individual Ulti's now. Oh and grind Attack and Electro materials, since the new guy they give out for free is going to be the only 5* electro attacker...

They're gonna give mats I think up until level 40?
 
I was gonna try and save up for some new character i didn't have since I had a guaranteed pity thing but then I while half asleep rolled a 10 and then extremely early zhongli now i can put two pillars up instead of one oops.
Still eventhough I''m probably not gonna get a new character for a while now I at least have the one big buff now in terms of moveset stuff.
