Before the deadline, is Venti worth dropping money on? I did his character story mission and while he is nice for exploration and casting ameno, he doesn't seem good for pure dps.

He's really fucking good but I wouldn't drop money on a 5 star.

4 star to get more constellations? Sure, ok. But not a 5 star, unless maybe Ganyu.




Venti's solid and combos with everything. Sucrose can sort of do some of the same reaction with anemo stuff i na different way.

If you're going to spend money I would recommend just the BP and Welkin. The genesis crystal exchange rate is top jewwery.

Yeah, 100$ for around 70 wishes, it's not even enough to guarantee a five star. I did get the welkin and BP for a deathmatch for Hu Tao. Anyways, my grinding quests day for AR levels seemed to fail. Guess I'll just have to live the daily grind until AR45. My current goal is a waifu squad of Hu Tao, Noelle, Sucrose and Xiangling. Using the support artifacts of Ameno and Geo with Xiangling as the matchstick for insane seconds of damage (at least theoretically).

The idea is that Xiangling summons her familiar for fire attacks and sweet -15% resistance, switch to noelle who shields and crystalize for 35% fire damage boost, immediately switch to sucrose and wind attack for another -40% elemental resistance, switch to hu tao who has around 8 seconds to go beast mode while having a shield. It won't have elemental reactions but who needs it when you have waifus.

And in the end, that's what the game is all about. As long as you are having fun, you're winning.

+Noelle is best girl

Another option is switching Sucrose to Ninnuang for a geo affinity boost and dps while Hu Tao recovers. Still waifu.

He's a completely broken support character. I don't think this game is worth spending money on based on the one battle pass I bought into. For the price I think what you get in return is very solid, but with how early it is in the game and reruns already happening there isn't much reason to rush for stuff if you're in for the long run. If you don't get him just save for another character that's interesting to you, or bust out that credit card like the goblin in your brain is telling you.

Edit: Finally beat Spiral Abyss. Ran Jean, Xing, Xiang and Fischl on team 1, and Ganyu, Sucrose, Bennet and Diona on 2. I only got 6 stars but it feels good to have all that investment on characters pay off.

Never stops being so fucking absurd to me how my friends that play this game function in comparison to how they play other stuff.

Friend that got me into this game keeps occasionally dropping like 40 fucking dollars on rolls but never does any of the cool fun free rewards story shit anymore unless I push him to.
Another friend that was ahead of me in world rank and character rank who also sank some cash into the battlepass quit months ago because of things "taking too much time" or whatever despite literally not touching a vast amount of the open world. They only told me this after months of me asking them to check out the cool event shit only to find out they never even logged in when I check my friends list.

I've literally only paid money in this fucking thing twice and it was for like a 4 dollar primogem roll fuel thing that lasts a whole month. This whole shit is fucking ironic considering the entire reason idecided to get the game was because Klee, a character the guy that got me into the game was showing off in a stream, reminded me of fucking Mario. I had literally zero interest other than "lmao it's breath of the wild bootleg haha" before that and now I'm knee deep in the genshin hell massacring the masked goblin men and getting actually invested in the lore. Shit never stops being weird and funny to me.

EDIT: whoops I meant to say paid 3 times I forgot the time I got the one thing for the same price as the monthly thing because I wanted to roll for Hu-Tao on the last day and had jack shit

Yeah I've also seen some people complain about a lack of content in the game, yet they haven't explored shit or done all the available content. Like if exploration in an open world game isnt content to you then what even is? I also dont get the "too much time" thing. Besides some events which go away after a few weeks you're in no rush to do anything or optimize your characters. You can just play the game for 30 minutes and then move on with your day if you wanted. Or you can binge the shit out of it until you get to the endgame where you're just waiting on resin. It literally doesnt matter.
My poor dumb friend quit because he dropped around $60 on the standard banner, didnt get what he wanted, then complained and dropped the game. Like what did you expect, the standard banner has literally no rateups and your 5* chances are split between a bunch of different characters and weapons. I tried to get him to start playing again when Dragonspine was coming out but he just didnt want to.

The "too much time" shit also applies to the guy that hasn't quit, albeit for like event plot stuff. He never does it. He acts like it's a burden to do optional story missions he'd otherwise be doing like crazy if this was any other game They aren't even that long and take like a few minutes to complete usually. It's not the characters annoying him, it's not the dialogue, it's the fact that it takes "too much time" to fucking do a fucking optional side story thing despite the fact he's usually not doing fucking anything else with his free time at the times these things happen. I got no clue why the fuck this game seems to have this sort of effect on people I know that very clearly enjoy the game and it's characters enough to dump cash into it's gacha shit. They dump money into a game they refuse to play the new content for because playing the game "takes too much time", yet spend a bunch of time they could be using playing the game posting on social media about how much they like the game and characters and shit like that. It's some kind of madness I can't truly apply a name to.

Geez, 40 isn't much but don't waste money like that. Seems like your friend has personal expectations on GI and gotten an entirely different thing. Should have done a small study on plebbit, twatter or even here to get information before getting burned.

On the other hand, GI's artifact stat system is retarded and Mihoyo should feel horrible for being failed sociopaths.

Nah he knows like pretty much everything with the game. It's literally just down to a weird lethargic behavior in terms of playing the game. It's not like he dislikes the story or gameplay or anything it's literally he just is too fucking lazy to actually play it and acts like it'd be too much of a time sink. He started out way ahead of me but because of this behavior I've long since surpassed him and ended up being the one trying to help him out lmao.
Also, 40 is a lot to roll on fucking lootbox shit that you can get for free if you wait a little and play the game.

Honestly I'm just guessing people like that who just throw money and then leave just want the quick dopamine hit from spending money/gambling and dont actually give a shit about the game itself.

See yeah there's definitely people like that out there but whats happening here with people I know doesn't feel like that at all. As mentioned the people I've played this with actually play the game but for some reason will not touch any of the optional sidequests or limited time quest things that give assloads of free shit. Story mode? they'll do it. Ascending rank? sure. Limited time quests or fun and short co-op minigames with unlockables that have around a month of time to achieve? No. Not even once. Too much of a burden. too much time.
