it's pretty much guaranteed we'll get one
Yeah, we'll actually should get 1.5 dendro characters, since MC would be able to absorb groot power from the new statue. But again, I would speculate those won't be that good. Problem is, so far we don't know how good dendro would even be, so it's hard to make decisions.
 
I got kind of raped by off-banner pulls. Razor, Sac GS, Flute, Sac Bow, etc.
I did finally got muh C5 Bennet though (technically c6 but i aint activating that shit), C3 Kujou Sara, and Raiden Shogun
COMPLETELY emptied out my primos lol but I think I have 20-30 pity so maybe I can get Kazuha next patch if I win the 50/50? Not a huge deal either way, I already have C6 succer
 
I'll likely suffer properly once Raiden's banner comes back.
So...about that.

The uncharacteristic run of good fortune continues and the wish stockpile remains mostly intact. I haven't mistaken another more generous game for Genshin, right? Either way, probably not going to roll for the Fish and right now Ayato looks like a skip, so well set for the future.

We do have quite a few here winning coinflips in a row and bagging 5*s within low accumulated pulls. Not quite a hallucination, fam.

Blown a hundred pulls and got Sara to C6, deciding if saving up for the elegy is worth it.

it's only us compared to a few million players tho, after ganyu bled me dry with 86 pulls I'll never talk of luck again (still pissed for fucking up the coinflip, was kinda looking forward to fishbarb. desire sensor is real). made another 30-40 rolls and outside more useless bennett (since c6) it was kinda meh.

probably gonna say fuck it and wait for what the next banners will look like, can still roll then.
 
Figured “Fuck It”, next patch is looking to be fairly shit Banner Wise, might as well roll the Scam Banner. Got both SSR Weapons, I know better than to even try and refine those, still have a few Wishes left over. Kazuha and Venti are honestly busted enough that they don’t need me to roll for their Weapons, and Ayato is looking to be kinda bleh, so I’ll at least have time to build up Wishes before Dendro releases, barring them releasing Signora out of nowhere, let me hope.

Does lead back to “what the fuck will Dendro’s reactions do”. The only one technically in the game is Burning, because Pyro is the only thing Dendro Slimes react to, maybe Hydro would be a Slow effect (get us a form of CC that isn’t Swirl or Overload?), and that one is a DEFINITE reach on my part…

You mean the the previous ones (kagura + jade) or the current weapons (EL + donut)? Cause if it's the current then jesus christ, you have some courage. Venti is actually stronger with stringless and kazuha can use ironsting or amenoma depending if what you want so their 5* weapon isnt that much of an improvement actually.

No idea what the hell dendro does but months ago we had leakers say there is code data for 2 more dendro reactions called "Overdose" and "overgrowth" which i presume are dendro+elec and dendro+hydro.

Overdose sounds like something you have to keep reapplying until you fill a bar and the enemy takes a lot of damage at once (like bleed in dark souls). Overgrown (water+plant) sounds like a debuff reaction, maybe a "root" effect that prevents enemy movement.

If water+hydro counts as a double element infusion like electro charge, then it should be possible to do vaporize + burning at the same time with a pyro attack, which sounds fun and strong.

I meant the Raiden and Kokomi weapoms, probably should specified. Are they the best weapons, probably not, but I figure I have an entire next patch I’m not rolling on to save up, and I like having Weapons fit a characters theme (hell, it’s why I keep Klee equipped with Dodoco Tales). Besides, I already have Venti and Kazuha - while Constellations for them would be nice, they already make whatever party I put them into easy mode, and that’s with me using sub optimal weapons (Venti has that free Windblume Bow, Kazuha has a Sac Sword ‘fer Christ Sake) because the 4 Piece Anemo Set is some shenanigans.

I’d honestly be alright if Dendro’s reactions were more akin to debuffs than damage. If the Devs have to keep making tankier and tankier enemies because they REALLY regret those Geo Buffs and Shields everywhere, at least those would make Dendro Enemies a threat when they aren’t near Pyro Slimes…

*laughs in luxurious sea lord*

it's one of the reasons I don't bother with weapons (besides the shitty new whalebait mechanic of the weapon banner), I rather dump primos in new chars for variety than a different looking stat stick with a higher number and save in the mean time. helps making fuck-up like mine rolling on the wrong banner hurt less if you still can roll a bit more (got spooked by jean and hit xinyan c6, besides winning the coinflip again probably the best outcome all things considered). gonna skip again till kazuha or whenever fishbarb comes back, trying to get her now would mean not having enough primos when kazuha comes up next banner or the one afterwards, plus now I got 2 of the 4* at c6, which is always meh unless you really need starglitter...

some debuffs would be nice, superconduct is pretty strong and pairing dendro with electro for a general resistance debuff could kinda buff electro quite nicely compared to their other meh reactions. but it will probably be something pointless and still be overshadowed by vape/melt, so I'm not expecting anything and will still be disappointed.
 
Per leaks they got rid of Ayato's E taunt a while back but leakers didn't showcase it :(

on the bright side I have Kokofish now and my jean can use the pjc :heart-full:
 
I think the current abyss isnt THAT hard but i can really feel diluc's issues now. The batismoshaps roll around so much i waste sooo long running after them it's impossible. Decided to try out a different team to 3* first chamber and worked out thanks to the electro charge abyss disorder.

Dont let that seemingly good 1-A team fool you, fisch was thrash and only battering beidou and that room is ONLY wolves so zl's shield was for decoration, it was basically a kamikaze strat of praying they die first. In hindsight, i probably should've used bennet instead of zl there lol.

His clone now pops on proximity so it's actually a "buff" because you can use the damn first passive that gives skill stacks on clone pop. Previously it was kinda useless cause the clone would only automatically pop after 6 secs aka after ayato skill ended.

I dont think ayato will be thrash but his field dps kit doesnt mesh with hydro's enabling nature so he requires non standard team comps. Vape especially doesnt work with him in a way that is worth it.

IMO Ayato seems to be balanced around Venti since they synergize too well. Ayato's NAs can hit enemies up in the vortex, his burst requires clusters to get max value and his energy issues are mitigated by venti's free regen. This has to be intentional since there is 99.9% chance venti is rerunning and they want you to get both.

In hindsight, ever since double banners became a thing, it sure feels like new characters are designed around reruns.

Itto- Came with albedo rerun, devs clearly wanted you to use them and gorou together. Zhong came later.
Shenhe- Came with ganyu rerun who she supports very well
Yae - Came with raiden and synergizes so well, she originally needed raiden to just work (beta skill cd).
Ayato - Probably comes with Venti who synergizes very well and makes freeze with ayaka a lot easier

If this trend keeps up, it might be possible to guess reruns based on how new characters work.
 
sorry for double but new leak just appeared for the next first banner, Lumie is a very reliable miner so i believe them.

Well, i did not expect ayato no not have his own solo banner. This also reeinforces the theory that Ayaka might rerun solo JUST so mistsplitter can be paired with a shitty weapon which is hilarious if true.

bonus: I was prefarming for venti yesterday and got a 5* EM VV hat, in just a few days. My brother who spent +30 fragiles on that domain and farmed for months never got a 5* em vv hat for his kazuha. Isnt artifact rng amazing?

I'm just trying to get good Tenacity shit for my Zhongli & utilise my resin the best way I can. But somehow I only got pretty damn good Pale Flame sets, but not a single good Tenacity piece. I have a base Crit DMG & a base Crit Rate hats, a brooch with base Atk & Crit DMG & Rate on the side on the same Flower, & some other good stuff on the side too. But not a single bloody good Tenacity piece. I don't have anyone except Fischl I can think of to use it for, & even then, only 2-piece bonus is just enough for the Physical DMG buff she can get.

I thought a game I also play had a bad buffer system, I respect it after getting into Genshin's equivalent of it, cause at least that one let's you reroll on the sub-stats.
 
curiously enough, the featured image for the version depicts albedo. rerun this soon?
I expect kazuha/ayaka on the second banner for maximum milkage.

Isnt artifact rng amazing?
biggest reason I'm not bothering with that shit, pushing all my chars to 8/8/8 instead. the amount of whopperflower nectar is insane, but at least that was farmable somewhat. then I noticed most of the rest needs damaged masks...

Looks to be Ayato and Venti together, then
Ayaka as a Solo Banner. Methinks they’re expecting Ayato not to do so well if they’re putting the Twink on the same rotation….
Either that or they don't want Venti (still one of the strongest 5 stars) to take away from Ayaka since she's flat out waifu material (that whole story quest with her is a flat out date and the description on her unique food item doesn't help). Plus, this way it could encourage more pulls on Ayaka from people who end up pulling Ayato and don't have her already since I suspect Ayato is going to be designed to work in concert with his sister.
 
Oh my god they actually put Ayaka solo JUST so mistsplitter can be paired with a shitty weapon hahaha it's going to be skyward pride or blade isnt it? Sorry for anyone rolling on that.

Kazuha not being here also means that he probably wont be next patch either, what great news /sneed
