The only thing I know about Genshin Impact is that everyone wants to have sex with Lisa.
 
One of my friends gets really fucking pissed whenever I call one of the characters in this game he spent way too much money on rolls to get "Mario". It never stops being fucking funny to me because the character is literally anime girl mario.
 
So I'm here to drop some REAL advice, stuff that I didn't see for far too long that people should've been told from the beginning. I've been dabbling in the endgame which at this point is spiral abyss, the hardest content. Some of you who haven't messed with it much may have heard you need TWO main characters for it and that much is true, but there is more to it. You need two main DPS, and I'd also say you need two healers. You alternate between teams in Spiral Abyss, which means you should also have TWO claymore users, because claymores counter a lot of annoying shit like shields and geo. If you can, I'd recommend having your two mainly-invested characters be damage dealing claymore users, but that isn't strictly necessary.

So optimally your two spiral abyss teams should look something like this Main DPS(Gets all the investment, both of them), Healer, Bow user and either a support or a claymore user that can function as a support if the main DPS for that team doesn't use one. That should make it a bit easier than having to figure things out for yourself, and might save you a lot of mora on leveling characters/artifacts/weapons. You don't necessarily need a bow user if you have a spellcaster but they're pretty much strictly better for dealing with most ranged enemies like a flying ruin hunter.

My current teams are as such
Team 1: Diluc(main investment), Barbara(heals), Xianling(support/double fire buff from Diluc, and either Noelle or Sucrose depending on what I feel is better.
Team 2: Keqing(main investment), Qiqi(heals), Fischl(bow/support, Noelle or Beidou depending on what I need.

I've managed to get pretty far, and that's by pretty much entirely investing in Diluc and Keqing, with a bit in the healers too because things start to really hit hard in higher abyss. I'm lacking a second bow user at the moment so I've invested in Barbara's damage just enough to cover such bases. Mostly though you want to prioritize your two team leaders, then the healers.
 
been sitting at AR27 for a while. this game is really starting to feel grindy at this point. i wanna hopefully obtain qiqi before this game starts to get tedious and i eventually drop it. although it does sound like the developers are listening to feedback regarding resin and points needed to obtain more gifts. i do hope crossplay with ps4 happens soon.
 
I played it for a while after being nagged by my discord and at AR 20 i can mostly say a couple of things

1) The meme about being BOTW is annoying, this thing is like Nier automata and a Tales of games crashed midway with breath of the wild
2) The gacha is absolutely, ballstatic horrible, more terrible than FGO
3) Battle system is very strategic most with the sudden difficulty spikes but far as i can tell by now you can combine Wind with Fire and create shitload of AOE shenaninges, more with the new character Sacarosa
4) Archers are a hit of miss depends who you get i still dont have Venti and only have Amber
5) Fire users are hard to come by i only have Amber and Xiangling but Amber is to slow to use her element and Xiangling only trigger it with her Skills and Ultimates
6) tried to play it with a controller and did not like it, had to stick to mouse and keyboard

Wind is a great element to have in any team since they can spread any element, including fire. They're also handy when you're trying to reach far off areas like the little island near the top right of the map. Just use an ice adventure's skill to freeze the water than a wind's ability to spread it and you travel 10 times faster.
Also I had the same issue with the controller. I'm a bit biased since I mainly play PC games but it's just more convenient with all the extra shortcuts.
 
Protip for my people who need an ice bridge and happen to have our white exorcist boi Chongyun: If you swing his sword after casting E over water, he will keep making a path of ice.

For those who don't and only have Kaeya: Cast Kaeya's e and then switch to MC and cast fully charged wind E to spread the ice further and go a bit faster.
 
Fwiw, I cracked AR40 last night with the accompanying world level boost, and fights actually take skill now. It took me twice as long to take down the oceanid as usual. Granted, I still need to advance two party members, but it's a notable difficulty spike. It's not unwelcome, I'm enjoying needing to think about positioning and elements. Resources might become an issue soon, though. I was planning on rushing my main party to cap and taking my time with the rest of the characters while I wait for the update, but I might need to prioritize building new teams for specific challenges.
You have plenty of time, as the level 90 ascension doesnt happen till AR50.

Im almost AR43, you might want to start focusing on a main team, it gets way to expensive to try and do to many characters.
 
Is there any word if they will change the standard banner for 1.1?

Yeah, my main team is all at 80, but I'm really feeling the missing electro and cryo when I farm bosses.

Is there a dendro user in the game yet? Just realized I don't think I've seen one of those.

Not yet, and I don't know if one was available in the closed beta tests though I would guess not. As it is now, compared to the other elements dendro seems kinda useless as it only reacts with Pyro for a damage over time effect.
 
This game just seems like chinese spyware + free money, like a lot of American spyware, but really I just wanted to post that when I watched gameplay of this they were playing as the male protagonist and I thought it was a girl the entire time.
Then I checked their first video to see the opening cutscene where you pick and both characters are girl, one is just boobless and called a boy.

Chinks know their market.

Nah man that's just royalty free Link. The only thing you could construe as "girl" is the longish hair in the back but link's got that in breath of the wild too.
Normal marth lacks a cool eyepatch like eyepatch marth though.
 
Ok.

You are better off just buying FFXIV if you need to scratch a MMO itch.
At least it doesnt have bullshit gacha mechanics nor chinese spyware.

pretty sure it was done for animation purposes, almost every character has something waving and jumping around behind them, be it hair or clothes.
