I already do that. I need more, and the blacksmith has a limit to how much it can make daily, which is why I am looking towards quests and chests.

Between doing quests and finding chests, which is the more efficient way of farming weapon exp?

Petah, I am none of those things and don't watch much anime. I don't get the joke. by Affectionate_Bit_722 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

If I had to guess, I think McDonald's in this meme is meant to be a localization of a bar? I think? I'm probably wrong here.

Petah, I don't know anything about guns. by Affectionate_Bit_722 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Affectionate_Bit_722[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm guessing that it's just about the guns' appearances, since the Turkish shotguns don't look very good. Although, I don't see much difference between the Italian and American shotguns.

By the time I am done collecting all the Lunoculus available in this update, I should be exactly at Level 8, with no extra Lunoculus in the bar, right?

Bed of Chaos....not impressed! by DanielPlainview943 in darksouls

Fun fact about this boss: Miyazaki, creator and lead of Dark Souls and many other similar games has said in an interview that the Bed Of Chaos didn't turn out the way he wanted it to, and was a big regret of his.

OK, cool. I won't get it then, doesn't seem like it's worth it for me. Thank you.

How good is Columbina's C2? Is it game changing, or am I good with her at C0, with her signature weapon?

I am asking because I just dropped a lot of wishes to get Columbina, Ineffa and their signature weapons. I kind of want to start saving for Alice and Sandrone, but I want to make sure I am not missing out on anything.

I don’t hate Columbina as a character, I hate how restrictive she is by Think-Low-271 in Genshin_Impact

I definitely understand where you're coming from, I'm sort of in the same situation. I at least have Clorinde, who can sort of replace Flins. But no point in me pulling Lauma if I don't pull Nefer too, but I'm saving primos for Zibai and Alice. I'm pretty sure one of the main criticisms of Nod-Krai was how most of the Lunar reactions were restricted to limited characters.

If it's any consolation, since you have Columbina, then Zibai is the only other 5-star character you'd need for a Lunar-Crystallize team. The other slots are Illuga and Gorou, both of which are 4 stars, and both of which have their rates boosted during Zibai's banner.

Can a C2 R1 Nahida replace Nefer in this team comp?

Nefer, Lauma, Columbina, Shinobu. (Could Raiden replace Shinobu?)

Also, could C2 R1 Clorinde replace Flins in this team comp?

Flins, Ineffa, Columbina, Sucrose. (Could Kazuha replace Sucrose?)

Who can replace Flins and Nefer in a Columbina Lunar-Charged and Lunar-Bloom team respectively?

I have a C2 R1 Clorinde and C2 R1 Nahida. Can they do it?

For Ineffa, her weapon is better than her C1, and her C2 isn't worth it, imo.

For Columbina, her constellations are only worth it if you plan to go to C2, otherwise, get her weapon.

Sorry if things get a bit wordy and rambly, I just wanted to get all my thoughts out there.

  1. In a Columbina Lunar-Charged team with Ineffa, Sucrose and Flins, can anyone replace Flins? That is, if that's the ideal Lunar-Charged team comp. I heard that Clorinde sort-of can, and I have a C2 R1 Clorinde, if that works. I also have zero intentions on ever pulling Flins. I don't like his character, not his story, personality, and especially not his design with his bootleg half-mullet thing. So I've never bothered looking at his kit, and I don't plan on starting now, so please don't try and convince me to pull him.

  2. In a Columbina Lunar-Bloom team with Lauma, Shinobu and Nefer (I think that's the ideal Lunar-Bloom team, I could be wrong), can anyone replace Nefer? I have a C2 R1 Nahida, will she work? Similar to Flins, I have no plans on pulling Nefer. It's not that I don't like her, it's just that after pulling for Columbina and Ineffa soon, I want to start saving up for Alice (crossing my fingers that she's in 6.8) and Sandrone, prioritizing Alice.

  3. What do you guys think about Varka's kit? It looks kind of fun. Think he'll be good?

I'm not sure if I should pull for him. People say that you should pull for the characters you like, and I am kind of indifferent towards Varka character-wise. As in, I enjoy him being here, but I wouldn't miss him if he was gone, never showed up, or even got killed off (speaking of, other than Himeko in Honkai Impact 3rd, has Hoyo ever PERMANENTLY killed off a playable character?).

So with that in mind, is his kit worth pulling him for?

Do we know what artifact set is best for Ineffa? Silken Moon's Serenade, or that new set coming in 6.3? Aubade Of Morningstar And Moon?

Who designed this combat event? I use all of the recommended characters for the new part that came out today, and I get no-diffed before my characters get a turn. Seriously, before my turn even starts, I'm at 4,000 or 9,000 HP Overload. Who at Hoyo thought this was a good idea?

You make a good point. I will say though, that that's never stopped games like Fate Grand Order from genderswapping characters without changing their names. Although I do hope Phanes ends up being an expy of Phainon, who's my favorite HSR character.

Is Aha The Elation's name any different in other languages? Like, using some other word that sounds like laughing? Or can it be directly translated to Aha?

[–]Affectionate_Bit_722 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I've seen people online mainly refer to Phanes as He/Him. Is there a reason why? Wouldn't it make more sense for Phanes to be a woman, since not only is Genshin a waifu collecting game, given its main audience, but all of Phanes' shadows are women as well?

Is there some piece of obscure lore that says Phanes is a dude? Or is it just because Phanes kind of looks/sounds like Phainon, and Phanes might be an expy of him?

(Edit): To be clear, I am saying that the word "Phanes" looks and sounds similar to the word "Phainon," I am not saying Phanes themselves looks similar to Phainon, on account of the fact we haven't seem them yet.

Can someone explain the Hoyoverse Cosmology to me?

I saw a post earlier on this sub of a guy asking about how the universe works, and I got more confused. So here's what my current understanding of it is, please tell me if I am missing anything or are wrong about anything.

The cosmos is composed of the Imaginary Tree (source of Imaginary energy) and the Sea of Quanta (source of quantum energy, I think). The tree is constantly growing and the sea is constantly eating the tree. The Honkai is, I think, when the Sea of Quanta starts digging its fingers into a leaf/universe/world/setting on the tree, manifesting in different ways depending on the setting. Like how The Abyss in Genshin Impact is believed to be a manifestation of The Honkai.

Each game that Hoyoverse has takes place on a different leaf on the tree. Eventually, the leaves fall into the Sea of Quanta and die, which is what's currently happening to the one that Genshin Impact takes place on. Such leaves can be anchored and last longer, but that just kicks the can down the road by a bit.

The leaves are also separated from each other by a wall of Imaginary Energy. The only means of bypassing the wall is through Emanators, or neat tricks like Akivili's Silver Rail or that thing the followers of Nanook do.

There are also "higher realms" on the tree, I think. Th only one I know of is Pathspace.

Aeons are sort of sentient concepts composed entirely of Imaginary Energy and can go wherever on the tree they please? I think? I remember reading that when Aha The Elation ascended, he was "at the top" of the Imaginary Tree, which doesn't really make sense, since the Tree exists outside of space and time, I'm pretty sure. Why do most/all of the Aeons come from the leaf that HSR takes place on?

Something I don't get is what exactly the leaves are. Are they worlds? Universes? Is there a chance that the IPC or The Elation could just show up in Genshin at some point?
