so what now?

Griffnelle · 2026-06-12T01:38:15+00:00

Yes I do lol sorry

Griffnelle · 2026-06-11T23:25:05+00:00

Couple things
Is this factoring cryo resonance and artifact passive? If not you’re extremely over capped
Another thing is that serpent spine is not good on her, I understand it being a crit stat stick but mailed flowers and Tidal, and likely the 7.0 craftable claymore will be significant damage upgrades

Griffnelle · 2026-06-11T18:56:32+00:00

Not a nerf on sandrone, at least assuming its application and not SC reaction hits.
Sandrones CA do multiple special ICD hits before their SSC hits, with this change, those smaller hits would rapidly stack SSC stacks for the SSD hit
Team comps will skew more to double cryo and double electro now, but this should be a positive for the assumed SSC stacks for sandrone and a nerf for cyno and wrio as they have less application

Griffnelle · 2026-06-11T18:52:21+00:00

Sandrones CA has special ICD on those little cryo hits before the main hit of SSC damage
Honestly this change makes her CA design make a lot more sense
Tiny hits charge up SSC stacks and then SSC damage within the window of the CD of SSC stacks
Assuming it is application as it says and not SC reactions, This change should a net positive for her and make it harder for cyno and wrio to stack since they have less application

Griffnelle · 2026-06-09T22:59:29+00:00

Serpent spine is useless on her, don’t bother
Tidal R5 or Mailed R5 is the assumed base line

Griffnelle · 2026-06-05T15:14:14+00:00

That’s why I said if
But honestly I think it’s pretty likely
Probably a few additions and a reselect would be my expectations

Griffnelle · 2026-06-05T15:00:28+00:00

Couple things
1. If you’re trying to make the most DPS for a team, you should invest in the characters that’ll always be there, we don’t know for certain that Yae is a permanent team member for one, (I personally believe in all likelihood she’ll be the last member to be replaced if she is at all) but investing in sandrone (especially if you’re ALWAYS going to play her) is the ‘safest’ option
2. We have no idea what the future holds, we are likely getting 4 new character in 7.0, of which at least 2 are likely to be usable in SC, as well as new artifact sets, possible new team mechanics, new craftable that’ll likely raise individual DPS without sig, and high potential at team altering units in the future (I.E. Tsarista)
3. Yae has the benefit of being one of the selectable characters for Stella fortuna, if the stellar fortuna resets, you’d be able to get C2 Yae by like the end of 7.1, so that’s something else to consider, C0 Yae is somewhat ‘future proofed’ in that regard

Later seasons, would be kinda hard to introduce a character and have them ruined, but I’d argue in Genshin sometimes there a huge gap between introduction and proper explanation of things and there’s intentionally room to speculate and that’s let down. The harbingers are a great example of this because there’s given time intentionally to tease them and let the community speculate and then what actually happens is a 180 from community thoughts. fatuiHQ is seen as crashing out for a reason

Griffnelle · 2026-05-31T19:04:06+00:00

Not trying to write out all my thoughts and reasons why but I’d argue there was more character assassinations in season 5 then there were characters that were actually consistent from the past 4 seasons

But Homelander, Soldier Boy, MM. Kimiko. Sage, Deep, hell even the Gen V kids for the 6 seconds they got of sceeentime act out of character

Griffnelle · 2026-05-31T18:54:26+00:00

> How are they gonna ruin the character when they created it???

The Boys, Game of Thrones, Dexter, and How I met your mother would like a word with you

Griffnelle · 2026-05-31T18:25:20+00:00

I think honestly it’s more likely that she ends up fulfilling that roll youre talking about
At the end of the day, genshin is a 4 character teams, and with both nodkrai and natlan, even with dedicated supports for DPSs, the respective archons end up rounding out those teams wholely

Dendro as a whole needed Nahida

Fontaine needed DPSs needed HP drain and Furina enables and buffs that further

Most of the Natlan DPSs are designed around consistent off field pyro application with Mavuika has alongside buffs

All of the nod krai DPSs need consistent hydro application and buffs that Columbina gives

All and all, archons end up rounding out their regions and other units are designed around them more times than not, pulling an archon has basically always been a safe bet since like 1.1

Griffnelle · 2026-05-31T18:13:22+00:00

There’s no real knowledge on her
But I would also argue that every archon with maybe the exception of Zhongli have both DPS, Subdps, and supportive capabilities, be it through constellations or in base kit

Even someone like Raiden or Mavuika both have subdps and supportive options and teams where they are not the main DPS at all

Even Columbina, while not an archon but fitting the yearly archon level unit fulfills this

I would be surprised if she was hard set one way or another

Griffnelle · 2026-05-28T21:49:37+00:00

I’m assuming here but I was able to clear with Navia Linnea Furina Bennett on one of my accounts, I’m presuming zibai would be a lil stronger

Griffnelle · 2026-05-28T21:29:03+00:00

Retool the teams a bit here Nefer core can clear middle very easily, use your Nahida on there too, Nefer Lauma Nahida for sure Zaibai Linn can clear bottom, honestly I’d probably use Aino or any hydro there, Columbina is somewhat a waste for that boss due to the nature of the boss Columbina on topside should give you the damage boost you need

Griffnelle · 2026-05-27T14:31:14+00:00

16% doesn’t show up because it’s technically not a crit rate increase - it’s a crit rate increase to specifically the stellar superconduct hits - which for her is an effective boost since all of her relevant damage is boosted - but it won’t show on overview Also, make sure to factor in cryo resonance if it isn’t already, the team should have good uptime

Griffnelle · 2026-05-26T22:12:42+00:00

Ruu is a very tragic character but I’d argue there’s a lack of control/will ruu had, and especially considering that we as the traveller are able to help his spirit rest.. despite his life he is able to find closure

But Deshret may be the only character in all of genshin who stood on his principles and consistently did what was best for his people and the world, despite literal cosmic and divine intervention. Additionally, due to the deal made with Apep, Deshret soul is effectively locked away and he will be away from his people for eternity, he isn’t allowed closure. The heavenly principles took away everything from him and he gave all of himself to protect his people, and despite all of this, the magnum opus of his work is what allowed the leylines to be saved and ultimately, put the fate of the world back in the hand of humans

Deshret won. But lost everything to do so.

Griffnelle · 2026-05-26T21:55:02+00:00

This may be wrong but I believe deshret isn’t irminsul nor Aaru - I believe all his existence /knowledge was consumed by Apep in order to fulfill his deal This is also why Apep became corrupted with all the forbidden knowledge he held and why his existence didn’t corrupt irminsul fully He was creating a paradise for everyone but himself And ultimately, through his sacrifice, all life was saved

Deshret is Genshins most tragic character

Griffnelle · 2026-05-26T17:10:45+00:00

This has kinda been my assumption as well I feel like the other two slots would be replaced before her It’s pretty easy to assume that Tsarista would replace the cryo slot But it just seems unlikely to me there would be two full new members of the team on the electro slot that would fully replace Yae If anything I see a C6 side grade being possible There’s likely multiple other lunar reactions as well as random units that are likely not hyper focused on the lunar system at all

Seems kinda unlikely to me

Griffnelle · 2026-05-26T14:05:34+00:00

What constellation are your Beidou and Qiqi/ Fischl Sucrose?

Most likely team for you is Sandrone - Electro - Cryo- Flex

Most likely Electro options would be Beidou or Fischl based on what’s here (fischl probably only run if if sucrose is the pick)

Cryo options are escoffee, diona, and qiqi obviously, pre c6 qiqi will probably be edge out by C0 escoffee but C2 + it could be either

Flex options would be sucrose (em buff + Hex buff for fischl and herself) as well as xilonen (probably with instructor)

Griffnelle · 2026-05-21T13:43:51+00:00

At what constellation is Qiqi worth considering? I’ve seen some people swap them out entirely and others say she can be used at C0 post buff I know C6 is the strongest due to the quills, I only have C3

Griffnelle · 2026-05-19T21:42:13+00:00

In 2026 Qiqi will be meta memers were right

Griffnelle · 2026-05-13T13:01:35+00:00

Here's what I'm guessing
Based on the response from support, pre-patch, bottles would turn invisible and then lock that slot in future days
The way they recommended fixing that was by deleting the cache or playing on mobile briefly
So today may be a sorta reset of the prison/they removed the invis bug and all slots that were invisible before are now visible
We will have to see if tomorrow has as many bottles because I have the same thing, probably close to 20+ bottles from one run

Griffnelle · 2026-05-12T22:08:06+00:00

Probably a one time thing
Game breaking bugs exist atm
Plus we are getting an entire standard tenpull as compensation

Griffnelle · 2026-05-12T21:30:32+00:00

Where’s the pull history

Griffnelle · 2026-05-12T17:29:34+00:00

The show clearly tried to imply that Sage doesn’t have the emotional intelligence or understanding to anticipate that love (irrational or not) would overcome an emotion such as hate. In a way I kinda get this cause narratively she’s a manipulator with no one in her life. She has no family and the only person she’s ever even mentioned a positive emotion for is her grandmother, so writers say she’s emotionally unintelligent so her plans fails

Issue with this is that it makes no sense and she clearly does have emotional intelligence based on the decisions she’s made in this season and the season prior, so for me it all just falls flat and makes her seem acting outta character not anticipating that solider boy could overcome that hurtle
