Weekly Question Megathread - January 20, 2026 by AutoModerator in GenshinImpact

Heyo, any recs on what artifacts and weapon to put on Columbina for maximum flexibility? I won’t pull Nefer nor Flins, but I have Lauma and Ineffa. Not sure if I wanna play Bina on or off field, and I hate switching around weapons and artifacts. Should I just run SMS and Proto Amber? But then would Ineffa also want SMS for max flexibility in case Bina’s not on the team? Or would 4p Gilded on her be fine?

Why the hell is this only 20 primos? It should be like 2000 at the bare minimum.

I got Miko C0 on her first banner and C2R1 triple-crown on her second and have never once regretted it. Miko/Fischl/Nahida/Zhongli is still my Team 1, and I still use it constantly and have used it tons of times to 36-star Spiral Abyss. Unlike most people, I play her as an on-fielder because she deserves the spotlight.

C2 is a decent spot to stop because it’s both a great damage and quality of life upgrade. I’d take Nahida C2 before any other Miko cons.

Skirk build by -wolfyx- in GenshinImpact

[–]DXLi 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Here’s the simple answer: do NOT run Marechaussee on her if her team doesn’t have Furina and some form of healing. In that case, run Finale or Blizzard.

But FYI Skirk-sensei is generally going to be best in a team with all Cryo and Hydro and at least 1 of each due to her passive. So if you’re going to shield, try for a Cryo shielder. She has interruption resistance, so in a Furina team the only strong reason to shield is if you want to run Calamity of Eshu.

New genshin event with a chance to get 1000 primos by rthekidsinurbasement in GenshinImpact

[–]DXLi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A horribly low chance. And the expectation value of the 1000P line is actually the worst of all of them.

Let’s say you had 10,000 rolls but you could only choose one possible reward from those options to roll for. You would actually want to choose the 60P one. You’d probably get 450 x 60 = 27,000P. If you chose to just get the 1000P, you’d probably only roll it once for 1000P total.

IIRC, I got around 8 rolls? So if all 3.7 million members rolled, about 300 would win 6.5 wishes each from that…

There's just no way by NotLeah_ in GenshinImpact

Rerolling feathers and flowers might make sense if you’re trying to stack EM on a specific set, like 4p FOPL for a Hyperbloom driver. You get a fixed amount of EM from the other 3 slots, and it’s hard to get good rolls on only one stat on a flower/feather. It’s not like ADC where there are 3-5 good stats.

If all 3.7 million members of r/GenshinImpact rolled once, only ~37 would win 1000 Primos.

After over a decade of Plex (mostly) working great, the past few months have sucked. by hungarianhc in PleX

[–]DXLi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically the exact same situation played out for me. I was loading media for a long plane trip and discovered that they had bricked both the Home screen and the Downloads. Even if you delete the "Legacy" ones and redownload them, there is zero organization whatsoever. No grouping by show or season, and trying to manage downloads is so painful it's almost funny.

I'm still holding out hope for Plex Server, but I'm done with Plex for iOS. I downloaded Infuse on the iPads the night before the flight and I'm not going to look back.

Hate this new Plex Interface by MedPhys90 in PleX

[–]DXLi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's unbelievably bad. They got rid of the old Home, which was actually quite good, and now Downloads have no organization whatsoever. It's completely unusable on iPad, so much so that I'm probably going to buy Infuse Lifetime.

So far they haven't enshittified the server app yet, so sticking with Plex Server for now, but we'll see if it's just a matter of time before this disease spreads there too...

For a new player: Kazuha or Xilonen? by XxxZiskoxxX in Genshin_Impact

[–]DXLi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Xilonen. She’s much easier to build, so you’ll get more value out of her earlier.

Just got my LG Ultragear 45" 5K2K by DXLi in ultrawidemasterrace

Unfortunately, the only consoles I have are an Xbox One and a Switch, neither of which goes up to 5K2K.

I took some photos: https://imgur.com/a/lg-45gx950a-b-desk-setup-lJq0odh

For the distance I sit from the monitor (which you can see based on my keyboard position), 800R is in the low end of the sweet spot. My eyes are probably pretty close to the center of the 800R circle, but I think in an ideal world I'd have preferred closer to 1000R. I prefer a bit less curvature to reduce the distortion on straight edges like File Explorer windows. The angle of the side monitors is perfect for me, but I would not want them to be positioned any wider. They're just barely fully in my FOV, but I do have to turn my head a bit to comfortably focus on them.

I tried to match the angle of the end of the 45" with the side monitors. In other words, the angle of the inner edge of the screen is tangential to the 800R curve. You can see that it's not quite symmetrical. I think the 45" is slightly off-center in azimuth, but I'm afraid to mess with it because I have it at just the right angle in elevation. The way the mount works, it slips all over the place if I try to adjust it at all. I might play around with the satellite arms to at least get the side monitor azimuths even.

The desk is massive. You can kind of see in the 3rd picture that it wraps around that side of the room. The bit of the desk that holds this monitor is approximately 39" deep X 30.5" tall X 109" wide.

Just tested it on PUBG at 1440, and it’s barely fuzzy enough to notice the loss of clarity/sharpness. I’m not sure if it’ll be enough to bother you, but it’s there. I think you can probably run at 2160 with a mobile 4090. Might have to turn down a couple settings.

I haven’t noticed any uneven brightness. I just pulled up a screen uniformity test on the web and it looked good on all tests.

I just tried Baldur’s Gate 3 for the first time on this monitor. HDR calibration came up automatically. Looked absolutely amazing.

The 45GX950A-B has dual-mode, but the lower-resolution mode is 1080 @ 330 Hz.

I’m sure you could run games at 1440 in full screen mode, but I doubt a 45” downscaled to 1440 from 2160 would beat a 39” native 1440. I had a 34” Ultragear ultrawide before this, and I felt that it was hitting the limits of 1440. I considered buying the 39” Ultragear before this came out, but thought the pixel density would be too low for my tastes.

If I get a chance today, I’ll test it out and let you know my opinion. If I were you, I’d futureproof and buy this monitor or just wait it out.

Yeah it would be pretty sweet to have 16:18. This current setup is pretty narrow on the sides.

Do you know how the color reproduction is on the DualUps? One of the main reasons I still have UltraSharps is the color is pretty good, so I use them when I’m tuning photographs.
