for clarification, it wasn't aimed at anyone in here, but the loud retards trying to turn the game into the dark souls of gatchas - while being too dumb to understand that powercreep is literally paid for and advancement after a certain point is pure artifact RNG, just so they can justify whaling for c6r5 in a casual mobilegame...
also I was wrong, I actually got 49 chars. I wish the game would stop giving me fucking dilucs, mondstadt batman is now my highest 5* ffs and I didn't even grab his outfit in 2.8 reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
the problem with artifacts (among a dozen of other things) is that said def artifact might become good at some point. heck it might be the perfect flex artifact if you can cover the set with 4 other pieces. I trashed all my DEF martial artist stuff which would be great on itto (since he's one of the few glad doesn't really work on), knowing you trashed that "it would be perfect" artifact last month hurts, not to mention farming them.
however the game is still easy enough that you actually can do it, which is another thing that annoys me about this whole MUH ENDGAME whining. there's a reason lot of chars don't really work in the abyss, because it's all about effectiveness. trying to make the whole game sweaty means you simply can't use most chars because they are less effective. and then to sell you new chars (since mihoyo wants you to roll for them) means they have to be even more effective, leading to a powercreep spiral most gatchas (or f2p in general) succumb to because it's easy and lazy game design. genshin made over 4 billion so far, while most people have already forgotten about tower of fantasy, if they even noticed. it's obvious what works and what doesn't.
anyway, back to best brown girl (till 3.5):

given how meta-commentary mihoyo is, they really need to give xinyan an outfit with her hair down and at the same time dehya one with twintails
watching the video also made me notice something else, if all the whiners really wanted a challenge they would pick one of the weaker chars and try to make it work instead of sticking to the latest FOTM, whaling for it and then crying for "hard content". it would also remove all the fun for people that play weaker chars. another reason why I have no respect for those retards.

I'm was farming handguards with yae + nahida and 2 flex spots whoever needs some exp because lol.I'm not sure if thats just me, but when I use dendro without hydro, it feels extremely underwhelming. My Nahida is really well built (for me*) and I like her a lot and she does a good amount of damage just by doing her thing, but without a proper hydro character involved she isn't exactly blowing my mind.
Right now my fav team for "just playing in the world" is Nahida + C6 Xing + C6 Fischl + C6 Diona
*for me: I try to look up whats good artifacts for the character and stats for those artifacts and grind for those and try to have as little def as possible unless Def is good like Noelle. But I don't go and try to find the 1 in a million super turbo artifact that youtubers somehow find to make 10 trillion damagepoints happen.

chars still have some roles, and you can only build them so far in a certain direction. the other aspect is how much work (and skill) you'd have to put into it instead of just #yolo it with john lee's shield and ungabunga. you could run xinyan as your main fielder, but it probably will be less effective than say an euler or diluc.Hey, are you me? Beidou and Xinyan are my highest investment characters and I desperately try to make Xinyan work as much as possible. Beidou is easy because she's actually incredible, but Xinyan, even with C6 and strong artifacts, is kind of a pain in the ass. My experiences with Xinyan is also why I'm so worried about Dehya. I respect the users ITT saying they don't care about meta or tierlist viability, which is fair. I don't really either. If a character is to my liking, I will try my hardest to make them work. Unfortunately I'll just have to also agree with the users directly above me. If a character is bad and/or feels awkward to play, not even my enjoyment of their character lore/visual design can save it in the long run. Eventually they'll be benched.
