Looks like it was just a bug:

The current abyss is really annoying so i had to use a few cursed comps to get by the final chamber but it only took me like half an hour which was surprisingly fast. Only had to switch teams once too. I thought i wouldnt even be able of finishing it but clutched it out.

This would've been a lot easier with yelan but oh well, i'm happy. I can probably get better results playing national with xiangling instead of diluc but screw that, i gotta represent the 1%. I think i'll train ayato next and see what kind of team i can make with him.

I ended up pulling for the bow since I was so close to pity. Since I don't have a super big interest in Yelan, I want to see what the bow can do on Childe/Ganyu with it's crit stat. (Don't have Polar Star for Childe, but do have Amos for Ganyu)

Did you get it tho? Dont expect it to be better than Amos on field dps ganyu tho, that bow is way stronger than it should be on Ganyu due to how her charge attack works (it's technically 2 arrows and the second is delayed so it's scales weirdly and hits much harder).
 
More Mihoyo in general, I'm seeing screenshots from Honkai: Star Rail and god damnit it looks so good, but it being a gacha means that it will probably be a game without an ending, which is a real shame.

Sorry, yeah I did get it. Looks like Childe getting the bow it is.

The joke (that's on me) is that it's actually my best pyro dmg goblet despite the useless defence so the copium is an improvement for once. If they ever release a defense scaling pyro dps (might take years) this could be good on them.

yelan good

The real flex is playing hu tao with no shielder or healer whatsoever. I tried diluc+yelan on the event and i forgot how her burst doesnt give stagger resistance so i cant unga bunga as usual. I guess hu tao is much faster but still, well played. Gonna try saving for yelan next.

They patched the Perilous Trial to be even harder, holy fuck Genshit.

Are you sure? I havent heard of this but from my experience the trial event was super easy. Even the trial characters were surprisingly decent, to the point i messed up my placings in the final challenge and had no one left and trial xiao + my sayu had no issues beating it.

This event is super easy if you just have strong flexible characters who can carry 1-3 weaker trial ones. Zhong, XQ, kazuha and bennet are the highest saving priority imo and should be alternated if possible. Also ensure you have 2 different element dps cause enemies are random.

In other news, i fucked up and fell for the bait. I dumped 3 pities worth of gems on weapon banner. After getting skyward atlas i tried again and got the spear. Then i decided to not roll anymore... but the fate system guilt tripped me into "not wasting" it so i went all out.

Thankfully i have my emergency starglitter reserves (60 rolls~) to guarantee kazuha but i probably could've spent those ~200 fates elsewhere.

(what gambling addiction does to a mf)

The good: I got Sac bow, fav clay and sac sword past R5. All i wanted was at least one 5* weapon of each type for coverage and now i got it so i am done here. Not getting yelan made me level up ayato instead and he proved to be surprisingly solid! Tried him on abyss with a copium EC team and he did better than my ayaka team.

The bad: I could've gotten yelan instead and probably noele c6, with enough to guarantee kazuha and perhaps his c1. Atlas and jade spear means i have higher chances of getting dupe weapons on standard banner. Atlas isnt that great and i have nobody to use jade spear so it feels bad to look at them...

review: I do not recommend lol.

Let me explain, when I did the event on my main account (this was around 1-2 days after the event started), you could use the trial characters & later your own characters too. So if I used a trial ZL & there was condition like "Randomly making 2 characters unusable for the whole stage" or "Unusable for 2 out of 3 rounds" thing, I can use my own ZL if I owned one. Apart from the last one, I skimmed through the event utilising that.

Now trying it on my other account (I did the 1st stage 2 days ago, where I was kinda sick, & I just did the stage 2 & 3 today just some hours ago) to get the bow, it's refinements, & crown, I did the event on that account, & apparently if you use the trial characters with the conditions mentioned above, you can't use the characters if you owned them, so if I used a trial ZL & either of those conditions occur, I can't use my owned ZL either.

I actually got the 3 main things I did the event for, but I think grinding the whole thing would be hard.

I feel like you kinda fucked up on the banner. I'm kinda sorry for you bro.
 
I talked with my brother about Diablo's gacha and I've been wondering how Genshin compared to Diablo's 110K$+ for a max optimized character. So let's talk the most ridiculos worst case scenario of needing 8 5 star characters, each with his unique 5 star weapons all max ascensions. Since it's worse case you need 160 * 100 pulls each and that's total of 36 per character (12 total with pity for character and 24 total pity for weapons) which makes it 160 * 100 * 36 * 8, total of 4,608,000 primogems. Looking at online stores, it is 100$ for 8080 primogems (at least assuming the extra isn't a once per month deal), so it will be 570 purchases of 100$ totalling 57,000$.
So even this ridiculous exaggeration (you'd likely need average 75 pulls, and don't need pity 75%/66% of the cases not to mention that the 5 star beatsticks would use a 4 star better than another 5 stars. And the weapons are likely to be shared anyways) is only half what Diablo would need for a single character.

For people not up to meme news, most of the paid shit you get in new Diablo is not for account, but for character(or so I've heard). In my oppinion, they'll change it soon, because that's some real shit.
Also, one more thing. They sell those things, called sigils. These are used for dungeon runs to make to up chances for decent loot from margin of error to somewhat considerable. There are two types. Basic one, and a good one, purple. Before the start of a dungeon run, you can insert up to three. BUT, if you actually insert three purple ones, game just casually shows you 7 more sigil slots. Lmao. Or so I'd say, if that was all. But there's more. Remember how I've said there's 2 types of sigils? Well, there are 3 actually. There are two types of purple ones. One for the dirty f2p pesants and a normal one. They look very similarly. Normal ones you get from the cash shop. Ones from battlepass, missions, etc. will be shabby ones. Difference is this: cool loot you get by using f2p ones is bound to you, so you can't sell those on the marketplace. Yes, there is a marketplace, kinda like in Diablo 3, but requires their primogems to operate. Wow, just fucking wow. Thank you Xi for Genshins monetisation.

At first I wondered, why am I getting so agitated over the standart microtransaction bullshit, but that was quite simple actually. This game is not from some Uncle Hu Basement Computing, but from fucking Blizzard. I know they've outsourced it to some Hu's Computing, but still put their name and IP on that. If scaly OCs from WoW and a Clash of Clans ripoff were final nails in the coffin, Diablo Immortal is a fucking mortsafe.
