Holy shit she's actually big bennett :story: It actually happened
 
And on the 3rd day (30 pulls)...

Sadly, you can't change the character once you choose it, so I'm stuck with her until the free pulls run out.

Holy shit she's actually big bennett :story: It actually happened

More leaks came out and some of these numbers are wrong but it's mostly true

Nicole kit

Lohen
1775579367942.png1775579376458.png1775579383390.png1775579878103.png

NICOLE is PYRO / CATALYST TL;DR

-atk scaling
-Skill gives 20s shield and atk buff to the team at a 8.25% ratio and presumably 600 atk level 10. This means Nicole needs 4000 atk to cap her buff.
-Burst is 60 cost. It makes nicole summon a nicole phantom that does a coordinated attack every 3s five times, but the phantom uses the on fielder element and dmg modifyers. If it's a hexerei, the phantom is that character. (Presumably this doesn't apply element for reactions?)
-One of her ascensions gives +300 atk to the on fielder but if they're NOT hexerei they have to way 3s on field for this buff to enter (LOL). The second ascension makes this buff apply to nicole too.
-With 2 hexerei, her burst gets an extra 150% in there.
-Her signature has extreme atk (741), atk%, 26 dmg bonus after making a shield (scales on user atk) and energy refund. With 2 hex, it gives 13% bonus for off fielder hexers.

tl;dr: Other than requiring very absurd attack, nicole is fairly good in general unit and probably better than bennet for buffing subdps. It's unclear if she has energy issues as we don't know her particles, hopefully it's 5 per cast.

LOHEN TL;DR

Lohen is ICE / SPEAR kit is weird so follow me

-Skill is ice infusion for 12s and special mode.
-During skill, lohen gets one type of stack for normal/charge and another for allies doing damage.
-Once Lohen has enough attack stacks, he can consume them to use an offensive skill.
-His offensive skill and burst will consuma all the stacks generated by ally attacks for bigger damage.
-Important part: If the ally deals less than 1000% of lohen's base atk, it generates 1 stack. If they generate more than 1000%, it's 20 stacks and if it's more than 4000% it's 80 stacks.
-With 2 hex, lohen gains 40% normal and charge dmg bonus (thats it??)
-His sig is high base atk, crit rate. Once skill is cast, normal and charge atk buffs skill and burst by 40% and vice versa. 2 Hex gives extra 30%.

So Lohen sounds confusing at first but the idea is that he's a on field dps who mashes normal until skill is avaiable, but he NEEDS subdps who does a lot of damage to buff his skill. Assuming a 5* spear, the subdps needs to do at least +10k hits or slow +40.000 hits.

This basically filters a significant amount of teammates for him like xinqiu. Yelan for example sounds like a good idea but i doubt mine would hit 10k dices lol. Escofier+furina might be able for freeze but the ones doing +40k are going to be melt Durin and subdps mavuika.

The new girlie Prune is a 4* and she is another one of those who sucks ass until C6. She can give up to 35% dmg buff to the team based on her attack, but the real deal is on C6 where she simply gives everyone on the team 350 atk for 16 seconds and basically becomes the poor man's Nicole (who is actually usable with nicole).

There are new sets too. One is a support set for hexerei, one a hex equips they give 20% dmg of their element for the team. With 2 hex, it amps to 40% AND you get a bonus for the on fielder's element too. This is obviously for Nicole and varka as if she uses it and varka is on field, he gets +40% anemo and +40% pyro. This means Mona got a Cinder-tier support set and potentially good on fischl and albedo too.

The second set is a superconduct set that gives crit rate and reaction damage. There is no one in the game who can use this so we'll probably get someone who's going to be a busted super conduct locked unit or even a reaction buffer.

This set also teases the "power of Qosmos..." who is probably going to be Scheznaya's cancer gimmick and everyone is expecting to be "lunar reaction part 2: cryo bugaloo". Which is literally the laziest and gayest path they could take.

A lot of people are theorizing Lohen is going to be standard banner because his kit is very awkward and not that powerful sounding but we don't know yet.

I'm very glad that Nicole is not hex locked after all but her kit is still fairly balanced and not OP all things considered. She's valuable and nicole has great synergy with fischl and durin, but she's not going to suddendly make varka the best character in the game or anything.

I dont know how trustful and honest this leak is but the 40% def shred at c6 is a bit odd since durin (her bis) already shreds def iirc

Im a bit confused. So her talents cap out at having only 1-2 hex teammates? I assume team comps gonna be nicole plus:
Durin + mona + flex=vape
Durin + fischl + chev/flex= overload
Durin + lohen +???=melt
Dendro will be an issue since while durin does buff burning, there aren't any hex characters who work all that well in dendro teams.
 
So this happened on a dev talk livestream for Chaos Zero Nightmare. @wtfNeedSignUp any thoughts?

Omfg just commit to something, you cowards. I suppose they learned fuck all from the Owen fiasco. Judging from the comments, it seems the devs have no idea what to do with the game either

🤏 Killed millions and erased memories.

Also in case anyone cares, Snowbreak and Silver and Blood are still in Maintenance

Gave up on the game about two months back. Had a god roll beforehand that extended my interest for another month, but the plot was shit (only now the devs put a codex explaining the setting) and QoL was gatelocked behind monthly progression.

I looked in the Reddit and seemingly people don't care for anything but gooning, besides some diehards that complain to complain. Seems like the game just devolved into a by the books gacha and removed any edge left because the devs got spooked.

It would have been a matter of time until the devs cucked out anyways.
 
After finally stripping all of my excess units(especially my essentially worthless Reactor Crucibles, fuck you Xircon), I cut my Wuling power consumption in half. Also, I have what amounts to a small city's worth of empty space. I'll deal with it this weekend

My core AIC has some space, and the outpost is basically empty. I hope the next update brings more stuff to do and outposts because there just isn't much to do.
 
I haven't even built Linnea yet and this team is already a war crime

I'm actually going to rebuild my Noelle for nostalgia to do donuts on the Columbina/Linnea wheelchair, it's gonna be fun.

Dendro will be an issue since while durin does buff burning, there aren't any hex characters who work all that well in dendro teams.

Her hex talent is some negligible damage but the artifact set forces 2 hex anyway. She gains nothing from more than 2 hex. If you want a main dps then varka, venti and klee should be fine. Burning is now better since kinich+emilie+nicole+durin should be legit.

And man, lohen is cool as hell. His burst animation has been making the runs on twitter with people thristing over it.

(he literally picks "you" by the hair camera and stabs you. )

We also getting some huge reveals, a new weekly boss is coming and yall can probably guess who is going to be lol.

Hoyo was spoiled the new scheznaya mechanics by changing the text description of diona's c6 passive. It mentions a new reaction called... "Stellar Conduct"... Which would be an stellar version of super conduct.

Yeah boy, we doing lunar part 2 for another year...

So instead of fixing or buffing the old reaction system (even if it's not a reaction physical has been dead for the better part of 5 years) they powercreep it to shill the new units.

:lossmanjack:

Though, why would they use the word Stellar for the new reactions? Nod-Krai had lunar because the story and region are tied to moon shit...but Schnezhaya is the region of Ice...they could have at least given it a name that's associated with the region, like Natlan and Nightsoul, Fontaine and Pneuma/Ousia.
