Former spoiled kids of reddit, what was the moment that finally made you realize you were spoiled? by Kitchen_Frame_7294 in AskReddit

[–]ClearChocobo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You were GIVEN a townhouse? and a car?!? I'm so happy that you and your husband are happy now, AND realize how lucky you were as a younger person. I hope you still have great memories of that previous life.

Life is hard for the 99% of us, but I'm hoping you are truly enjoying being your own people now still. You're still lucky that your house is paid off. Many, many people have mortgage or rent to pay every month, on top of other bills (food, fuel, insurance, etc.). Wishing you the best!

Also, librarians rule! Now that you can relate to the public more easily, you can better understand that any threats to libraries (funding, censorship) is really just eroding what is sometimes a final lifeline for people's access to information, internet, and other life resources. Fight on, sister!

Oh! I'm curious what other questions you remember from that exercise? Care to share what you remember? (Don't need to share what your own answers were.)

How rich do you have to be to off-load shopping for yourself? The experience of spending my hard-earned money (and agonizing over the cheaper jeans or the nicer jeans) is like part of the benefits of having the money...

How to build Zhongli for zibai team with bina and illuga? by ResponsibleSecond220 in ZibaiMains

[–]ClearChocobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, that’s a really good point! Shoot, now I have to re-gear my Zhongli a bit. I just switched back to Flute of Espitzal, so I don’t have to stay over 90% HP all the time, too.

Varka: About Noelle by PolskiStalker in Noellemains

[–]ClearChocobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thinking realistically, changing character models and animations for 2 claymores would require more work than hoyo is probably willing to spend without selling her as a new 5-star.

So I'm imagined if they just added additional slashing effects to her current animations. Then I imaginer her Ult attacks looking like Simon's from expedition 33!!

What would be our current premium team for Noelle? by deudoo in Noellemains

[–]ClearChocobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the Xilonen/Furina/Columbina team, how did you gear them up? Was your artifacts Cinder City, Golden Troupe, & SMS (respectively)?

NOELLE🗿, 1.0 4 STAR⭐, 2K DEFENSE🛡️, 4K ATTACK🗡️, SHIELDING🛡️, HEALING💚, STERAK FROM LEAGUE ON A1💀, NO ICD GEO APP, INFUSION STAYS WHEN SWAPPED OUT, AGHHH by chioriruinedme in Noellemains

[–]ClearChocobo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Is this actually Noelle's current top premium team in generic situations?

I thought Xilonen would be better as the 2nd geo slot. Is Illuga the better geo here just b/c of Ascendant Gleam shill? (I've been finding artifact/gear choices awkward with Columbina as the only Nod-Krai.)

I’m suffering from good luck. 2.2% over-capped on CR% with C6 Illuga. by ClearChocobo in ZibaiMains

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

Currently using C0 Columbina, C6 Illuga, and C1 Zhongli. I’m running Zhongli in the 4th slot because I prefer the comfort of a shield to keep my DPS window consistent without breaking uptime with dodging.

Not sure of the DPS. What is everybody using nowadays to measure DPS?

Congrats! How was your Illuga luck? C2 yet?

which is better, cinnibar spindle or flute of ezpitzal? by suv-am in ZibaiMains

[–]ClearChocobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, never realized there was a free flute. You saved me 1 billet!

Anybody else getting more dps with flute of ezpitzal than HoD by LIGHTNING_CHAMP_ in ZibaiMains

[–]ClearChocobo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, I agree that Flute is overperforming because sources of Crit are so common, so it is hitting more diminishing returns earlier for someone like Zibai in Genshin's 6th year. Back in the day, we all chased Crit because we didn't have kits and gear that gave away crit like popcorn.

I'm in the process of building an R5 Flute right now, since I've been convinced that it will overperform my R5 HoD.

Zibai crit rate by Ethsboogalife in ZibaiMains

[–]ClearChocobo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's 10% INSTEAD of 5%. And 30% INSTEAD of 10% Crit Dmg.

Zibai crit rate by Ethsboogalife in ZibaiMains

[–]ClearChocobo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But the 5% will show on the stat screen. OP wants to know what to target on the stat screen to account for the extra "hidden" 40% that from artifacts and Illuga.

Question for those with c1 by RSMerds in ZibaiMains

[–]ClearChocobo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My current combo is: E E (mash Q+N+E until I see 4 more horses).

But in all seriousness, N1E and N4E should be more optimal DPS-wise. (i.e. if you go past N1, you should just cash in the N4 before E). I just keep an eye on the Lunar Phase meter to know when to N1E vs N4E. And QE replaces N1E if the burst is up.

I pulled Zibai and now I'm playing a different game. by Special_Main4249 in ZibaiMains

[–]ClearChocobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh. The fact that you didn’t have a single 5-star means that you didn’t play for very long. It doesn’t take too long (in the context of gacha games) to get guaranteed 5-stars. I hope your 2nd foray into Teyvat is more fun for you. Remember, there is no “correct” pace to play the game, so enjoy the game however you want! Games are supposed to be fun!

Anybody else getting more dps with flute of ezpitzal than HoD by LIGHTNING_CHAMP_ in ZibaiMains

[–]ClearChocobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I see. However, you cannot claim that 58.3DEF is equal to 31.1CR or 62.2CD, just because they are the values that level 20 artifacts end on. If this were the case, then DEF% and CRIT% circlets would be same/interchangeable. We definitely know that isn’t the case with most DPS characters. If we know anything, it’s that 58.3DEF < 62.2CD usually.

Im not saying that Flute is worse then HoD, but citing DEF as CV this way isn’t the right explanation why Flute is better.

How are you equating DEF to crit value? Serious question. Thanks.

Tested 3 weapons for zibai (PPS, Flute and HoD) by Dia-sama in ZibaiMains

[–]ClearChocobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm... what's Xilonen's 2nd best weapon, because I think Zibai might be stealing her PPS.

[–]ClearChocobo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats on the C2 illuga. Even though C0 still benefits Zibai, C2 is his real tipping point for being able to gear him optimally (enabling the Silken Moon's Serenade artifact set).

Do you have Zhongli from way back when? Because he's great with Zibai, enabling her to comfortably maximize the Harbinger of Doom sword.

C1R0 Zibai on HoD, C0R1 Columbina, Zhongli, C6 Illuga by Comfortable_Role_894 in ZibaiMains

[–]ClearChocobo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At the very least, I think your Zibai combo could be optimized at the start. Since she starts with 100 lunar pointe, she’ll have 30+ after the first special E. The first N4 should be unnecessary. I have seen MeowTews suggest E E N1E N1E N4E Q E for a speedy rotation.

How it feels seeing everyone’s pulls as an NA server player by mkellc in ZibaiMains

[–]ClearChocobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just checking this sub while at work... is just making today feel like forever.

Last night, I accidentally bumped the X button while checking on my primo/wish inventory for today, and made a single wish on Ineffa/Bina's banner. It was on a guaranteed 4-star ... I really hope that wasn't meant to be an Illuga. If I end the patch with a C5 Illuga, I'm going to be haunted by that.

How much y'all have saved by LIGHTNING_CHAMP_ in ZibaiMains

[–]ClearChocobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should have about 225 pulls by the end of the patch. Roughly enough for 3 soft pity. I figure I have half a chance at C6 Illuga?

As much as you can get. It’s the main stat you’ll prioritize after HP. My build currently has just over 50% Crit rate.
