I think you nerds are doomposting too much before beta even ends. It is back to one and two LC chars requirement.
Nerf.webp


If anything, after Natlan, it's more of bosses require a specific gimmick (not just a simple element or element reaction) which is conveniently aligning with the latest (banner) characters team comp being the best to deal with. Most Nod-Krai bosses are definitely gonna taking the most damage from Lunar-charged type.
Or something something doing certain amount of Lunar-charged damage or reaction before reducing their element resistance. Oh, you fail to deplete something something shield before the timer ends, current active character is now dead.

Not sure if Nod-Krai is gonna be "Sumeru 2.0" with focusing on EM scaling. Because getting an EM sand main stat is already eye-rolling bad before considering having Crit sub stats or not. Oh wait, just have more LC characters in a team, you'll get free Crit stats.
Also, typical Geo c**pse is still rotting in basement.

I have few critical negative opinions. But I'll reserve them after Nod-Krai 6.0 and maybe 6.1 at most to see if something helps changing my mind by then.
On the other hand, the Natlan summer island is pretty comfy exploring and nice cheerful vibe, All thanks to Asha.
 
Lost the 50/50 for Phrolova.

Rip. Well, see you next patch. I'm still skipping Cantarella, the thot.

Is wondering if I should still get Phrolovas weapon, save for Augusta or get Italian child's weapon for Zani.

Even though I love her, she's bait. The only characters that make use of her kit, and partially, are Jinhsi, Camellya, and Phrolova.

And I only have Cameltoe of the three. Thank you for giving me even more reason to skip her.

Guess I'll be trying to get Phrolova if I can, and if not, well then Augusta and her weapon - depending on who she reruns with.

These are the people you can use her with, but honestly, you aren't missing much.

>You nerds

You can say it's me lol. You're right tho, it's early to doompost, i'll doompost later.

Apparently i's confirmed that the artifact doesn't stack 1+2 so they're 1/3 weaker now which is a fair compromise. They're still top tier but not the objectively strongest sets in the game in near all scenarios. Being only 2 nodkrai means you can put the 80 EM + 30 crit set on a non-nodkrai unit like Al haitham or Arlechino now. I expect them to tweak it further.

I'll even backdown and say there was some logic on hoyo because if you only need 2 nodkrai then the field dps is replaceable. Why roll for flins when Ineffa+aino or columbina is enough? You can just play varesa or neuvilete or anyone really. This makes the off field supports way more valuable than the main dps.

It's not just bosses, they're making multiple local legends to force counters and i find that overkill. There is now the cactus legend, a new duck boss and a new legend that both require elec/lunar charge to beat and will be in next abysses. Why are they pushing electrocharge for SummerSlam now? Right after i got emilie too, i won't see a burn abyss in a while...

I don't think nodkrai is sumeru 2 with the EM push, i feel it's going be the nation of support+subdps that has weird scaling and need 1 reaction to function. Ineffa and Flins want only atk+crit really but EM is shared so they want one EM sup (the anemo vv one). Lauma scales with EM+crit but turns out Lauma doesn't enable lunar bloom, she simply buffs bloom dmg and has a skill nuke that requires blooms to charge and counts as "lunar bloom" that can crit. She's not a nilou bloom upgrader, she's "dendro navia" with double shred.

The thing is how lunar damage DPS so far doesn't use dmg bonus which is clearly a targeted furina nerf and soft kazuha/xilonen nerf. I'll take a guess and say Lunar freeze and vape dps won't use dmg bonus either.

They're saying 6.0 will buff reaction numbers and as always it's worthless for chrystalize. Total Geo death (xilonen is fake geo).

And the natlan summer island is really nice, it's very clearly made for beginners as it has hilichus and very lenient challenges (except for that bullshit race). Man, it feels like i haven't seen an aiming "bow" challenge in years, natlan felt like it was all dinosaurs and fontaine was water and switches.

It doesn't beat old arquipelago and toyland tho. The asha is too goofy and the paintable stuff makes everything look plastic. I like how there is so many secrets behind painting stuff and you can help npcs or other asha. The event also looks very easy with good rewards, god bless benet having a good skin.

Funny if true, because Arlecchino won't need her.

In a vaacum yeah but she'll probably be pushed into high meta support anyway. It would be poetic if hoyo made Cryo archon racist so she doesn't work with mavuika (who is already racist).
 
I'm going to sit Septimont out. Truthfully, I can't be bothered to grind out 1600 astrites just to get nothing useful. But I am at least 18 pulls deep for Ezio next week not including the other login drops and the gift decatone or monthly unilogs

Sethos is decent if you have good Dendro options, preferably a Kirara or Baizhu since he struggles with being interrupted and they're both shielders. Besides those two, he can work with some of the cheaper options, e.g. Collei and Yaoyao, but he really wants someone to give him interruption resistance. He also has two different playstyles which can both be difficult to master, but he's a solid option especially in the early game. I would recommend looking for guides on YouTube or Keqing Mains, they're both good sources.
As for Ningguang, Lynette, and Noelle: personally I say no. They're only really 'usable' with pretty high investment, in weapons / constellations / supports. Lynette is okay as a standard Viridescent Venerer bot with Sac/Fav Sword, but the other two aren't doing much without Xilonen/Furina and some other supports. Same deal, if you're interested maybe look for some guides, but that's my short answer.
Just remember that in the early game it basically Doesn't Fucking Matter since Genshin is not a hard game (barring Stygian Onslaught) and everything dies pretty easy until about AR 45 or so (at which point you should start farming for artifacts if you weren't aware, not sure how much previous experience you have with Genshin).

He's strong if you do wacky frame cancel stuff that is too much effort but still only ok. He only needs electro+dendro and you use his burst then normal attack with elec infusion with skills in between. Can do fast charge shot for energy but it's expensive. Since his burst gives EM scaling, he can actually use 3* slingshot bow (high crit short range bonus) very well. Fischl+yaoyao is a good f2p team for him, can add xinqiu for some dmg+resistance too. His boss is very annoying to farm until you get a decent team and sethos isn't good at it, might be better to use qiqi.

You should roll until you get xinqiu cause he's the only good 4* hydro enabler to this day. Farming his boss can be annoying early on.

I wouldn't train noele or ninguang, both aged badly but they cab light Geo totems. Lynete is free to let you cheat fontaine puzzles, she should be okayish early on if you want to smack people with a sword girl but early on even anemo traveler is solid since early game swirl is busted and the hold skill swirls a lot. Lategame she's an okay swirl shred support if you need one (you'll want at least one).

Oh btw don't consume all your 3* weapons, make sure to remove the option to use them as upgrade fodder. Some 3* weapon are genuinely viable and even give crit rate or pass buffs (Harbinger sword, skyrider sword, TTDS book, black tassel, white tassel, slingshot...) and a few limited to epic chests in liyue and can be lost forever.

The bigger issue is him being a Sumeru character, unless you somehow look up on youtube how to fast travel to Sumeru for upgrade mats without being "gated" behind Archon Quest progression.
Also, he's an on-field bow dps character. Most of them are charged attack style, getting interrupted will lose their charged attack. Having shielder is needed, so Noelle can kinda help there. Since his charged shot (2nd level) locks him down in one place and consumes Elemental energy, it can feel awkward to build him. Either just building normally for Charged play style or focusing on getting enough energy recharge to use his Elemental burst more often. Because E. burst enhances his normal attack to be effective like his 2nd level charged attack.
Aiming with charged bow playstyle may be also harder for controller players unlike Mouse and KB.

You have Yaoyao already (hybrid healer and off-field dendro aplication), I recommend building Lisa instead. More accessible to upgrade mats than Sethos. I think it's Fischl next to Barbara icon I see there. Fischl is pretty good 4* off-field electro damage dealer/sub dps.
Don't worry about artifact (correct set or even set bonus whatsoever) early game, just level them to "max" as possible for main dps in feather and sand slot (ATK main stat). Flower slot can help for some survivability. Purple tier artifacts are good enough til AR 45, world level 5.

Well then.

At least I got Phaenomena and her giant tits. They went the goon route with her because her boobs bounce like she just escaped ZZZ.

I didn't get her for the tits. I got her because I was missing a good light unit.

But tits did fuck all and the game is dying.

Also the events are actually shit. I can't believe how shit they are.

I'd jump ship. It might linger on until the end of the year, but it's not surviving 2026.

Yeah I was considering holding on for Phaenomenas dedicated support for completion (sunk cost fallacy) but the game is getting more and more unstable. Had to restart several stages because they bugged out.

Also speaking of dying games.

LOL. I actually like to check in with the community every once in a while to see if it improved.

Etheria is actually getting worse. Reused events (events were not good. It was basically just RNG slot machines), no balancing, new characters are constantly dropped with zero reason to care, story mode is dead, still nothing to do but grind, economy is fucked, the latest hyped character is actually garbage, devs do not in fact listen.
