Questionable, but Baizhu leaked to be dendro Diona.
Bad dendro apply and healing depends on dendro reactions.

This means Yaoyao remains a very solid unit (unless you're willing to C1 Baizhu lol).
Leak claims Nahida will get replaced in spread teams, but that is obviously bullshit.

Baizhu will be a 5* no?

Yep!

I still think Baizhu is a Fatui, or at least a clonen

Venti is such a dork lol

Also... that look

So is the revelation that Zhongli never knew that Venti was secretly the reason Xiao has remained sane?

Venti: OBJECTION!

Is that whats been going on? I missed it somewhere, or maybe I just forgot.

I totally missed it too. Was it an earlier event? Or maybe Xiao profile. I don't have him so I'd need to go to honey hunter to read his stuff.

It's mentioned in his profile, yes.

They're just turning Paimon into a dog with abandonment issues, huh?

The Sumeru bit gave her PTSD, poor Paimon ;_;

I see, makes sense given that I have neither of the two,

I love this, especially Paimon as The World

Had some decent luck with Tartaglia's artifacts, actually got crit damage and an upgrade to it on all but one. And most of the stat upgrades that didn't go to it went to EM or recharge, which seems fine at least. Now to just get Sucrose up to speed so I can run him.

But anyways, just a question about a bit of... team comp for spiral abyss theory, I guess. The last three runs now, floor 11 side 1 has been walling me hard, first fight being all slimes and specters, second fight being all Abyss mages, with a variety of elements. What's the best team comp concept for that? Maybe something like the Tartaglia/Xiangling/Sucrose team with the fourth character filling in to handle what they'd struggle with?

Bennett 100%

Managed to beat the Onyx in the Chasm

Began the next quest just to get my backside handed to me by the two geovishaps in the domain

been using wanderer in a team with benny and my c6 faruzan and the damage is ridiculous

I have a fully built Lv 90 Faruzan with 6/8/8 talents, but she's only C2 T_T

Lisa outfit.

Want.

I know, for real, it looks great. Can't wait to get it.

Im not sure if its going to displace her original outfit but I want anyway.

I think it's pretty hype they do free outfits at all, I didn't know that until Lisa's was announced. It's even better that I like it haha. (And I'm bummed I missed Ningguang's.)

same, I really like the evening gown style of it

just got c6 sara off the standard banner. might be time to actually use her

I expect to have that problem in about two years, since its taken me this long just to pull her once.

sounds good to me

Dream team strikes again

It's funny how Childe is objectively, by far, the best enabler in the game and yet somehow people still don't use him that much.

Literally no other character comes close to his total damage output when you factor in both his enabling and his on-field damage.

Most people see the potential cooldown on the skill and shy away, as well as not bothering to learn rotations and optimizations.

As for hydro application, Childes blessed to come from a time before hoyo started cracking down on ICDs for characters. Same reason why the old four stars still tend to dunk on newer ones for general use while newer ones tend to be more niche.

Yeah, and also people tend to discredit just how much nuke damage he does. He can wipe out an entire room of enemies if they're clustered together.

The synergy he has with Kazuha in particular is almost like they were made for each other.

tweaked the artifacts on my eula a bit an now my best hit with her burst is 414k :)

Wonder if they'll ever make a Phys DPS better than Eula. It'll be hard to top someone that does around 20K just from a single hit of their NAs lol

i doubt it. whoever they'd make would always be compared to eula, so they'd have to come up with something very creative, or someone who attacks faster but lighter.

They could do a physical DPS that uses the regular sword instead of claymore.

I've saved up 85 fates and my hard pity is in like 20 pulls. I don't really see anyone on the horizon that looks interesting, though.

Not quite as effective but a phys Rosaria hits pretty hard, fast, and is relentless.

Get a feather artifact for Yaoyao that has HP% and ER%. All but one upgrade goes straight into the flat defense. Lmao fuck artifacts so much

And I think I've been convinced to draw for Alhaitham here, at the risk of not being able to get either Hu Tao, her C1, or Dehya. Shit.

Unpopular opinion: Hu Tao is overrated. And I have C1 Hu Tao with Homa.

I adore Hu Tao as a character, I just hate her gimmick. Any character in any game that does low hp = more damage thing, I avoid haha.

Agree. My Hu Tao hits pretty hard and will hit harder if I'm able to acquire Yelan, but I don't like monitoring HP.

I did a thing.

C3 with 8/8/11 talents, 4pc TF

What weapon are you using?

Tbh, mostly want Hu Tao because she's adorable moreso than any actual meta consideration lol. But a pyro main DPS besides Yanfei also would be nice.

But eh. Blew 50 draws, got myself Alhaitham, so we'll see how the Hu Tao and Dehya banners actually go from here.

That's such a shame, because it's arguably the best catalyst in the game.
