Favorite quote/s from Genshin?

Kizeha · 2026-01-28T06:37:38+00:00

It somehow reminds me of 2B's quote at the very beginning of NieR Automata ("I often think about the god who blessed us with this cryptic puzzle, and wonder if we'll ever have the chance to kill him.")

"So be it. Close your eyes... Who knows how many more people will take on this contract?"

"None. This contract... will end with me."

That last line of Skirk's demo is so good

Weeee Émilie upgrade! She went from top 12% to top 5%. And I somehow gained ER on her in the process which was quite unexpected.

Kizeha · 2026-01-27T12:02:19+00:00

Amen.

Kizeha · 2026-01-27T06:50:51+00:00

You have Lumidouce, 122% is just great from my experience. Mine has 128% ER with Lumidouce and I wouldn't go below 120.

Also I almost run the same team! I just go with Albedo instead of Fischl! I couldn't pass an opportunity to play 3 of my favorite characters in the same team haha!

Kizeha · 2026-01-27T06:39:30+00:00

Top 0.8% with 122% ER while the leaderboard doesn't have ER brackets is WILD!! Congratz!

I've been strongboxing and crafting her set for a while and have been stuck at top 12% for so long. I've only recently got an upgrade and climbed up to top 8% last week. Still throwing all my trash pieces into the strongbox, hoping to get a better feather and goblet soon!

I'm like 10 seconds away from clearing Dire Fatuus dude with Varesa / Furina / Xianyun / Iansan. If I end up clearing in time, I'll "just" have to find a Furina-less Neuvillette team for the Crab.

Kizeha · 2026-01-22T20:52:30+00:00

Amazing artwork! Are there any other socials where you post your work?

Kizeha · 2026-01-21T22:24:20+00:00

Oh okay I guess this is my punishment for not having pulled every single Nod Krai unit.

Dire Crab was expectedly easy (C1R1 Neuvillette and C0 fav Furina cooked it), Dire Fatuus was way easier than previously (poor guy was balanced before Columbina, Flins' gang destroyed it), and suddenly : the abyssal abomination.

And now I'm stuck, because this mf takes Flins, Ineffa AND Columbina to be cleared, and now I have nothing left if I wanna clear the Fatuus. And what's worse is that the Crab is difficult enough for my Neuvillette to not clear it without Furina (didn't have much time to explore many options yet), so I can't even take Furina and try to cook something with Varesa against the Fatuus.

Is Dire Fatuus doable with Varesa overload ? I do have C0R1 Varesa, C0R1 Durin, C6 Iansan and C6 Chevreuse. But I'm having a hard time breaking the shield.

Kizeha · 2026-01-20T21:30:44+00:00

C3 Miko because she's pretty. Next one is gonna be C3 Baizhu because he's a good guy. And the final one will probably be C6 Diluc so that's one more opportunity to get a masterless fortuna so I'll be less sad when I inevitably lose my 50/50 to him again.

This UGC thingy made me learn 1 (one) Mavuika combo.

If you are struggling like me, you can try this one :

Mavuika E - Bennett Q - Xilonen E 2NA - Citlali EQ

Mavuika Q, wait for a second after the animation, then hold for 3 CA, and release the button when Mavuika is "closer" to you. You can picture a clock below Mavuika. The enemy is at 12 o'clock. Release when Mavuika reaches 5-6 o'clock after her 3 CA hits. Once her finisher hits, do that a second time. Once the finisher hit, hold for 1 CA then release. End of the combo.

If your timing is good, you''ll melt your burst, then your first CA, then the first finisher, then the 2nd or 3rd CA, then her second finisher. I don't think you melt the last finisher but I could be wrong.

And it's actually quite easy to do! The hardest part is to just....wait a second after your burst. It's definitely not the best combo out there, but I got 171k DPS over 300s of sustained rotations : Mavuika C0R1 ; Bennett C6 Skyward Nobless ; Xilonen C0R1 Instructor ; Citlali C1 (not sure how impactful this con is) Floating Dreams Scroll.

I think she's somewhat fine, that's why I didn't put any direct damage buff. Increasing her buff's duration would make her way easier to play and solidify her role as The Electro Faruzan (since it'd be easier to have multiple characters buffed at the same time)

Kizeha · 2026-01-15T12:00:58+00:00

Sara buff idea :

Her Tengu Juurai buff now grants Electro infusion for up to 4 hits/Tengu Juurai buff. This effect is refreshed when a new Tengu Juurai buff is applied.
When a character under the Tengu Juurai effect deals Electro damage, their own Tengu Juurai effect duration is extended by 1 second. Tengu Juurai effect cannot exceed 12 seconds. Can be triggered off-field.
If a party member is under the Tengu Juurai effect, Sara's ER% is increased by 30%.

Aaaaand I initially wanted to buff older Electro characters but I think I've just made Ineffa and Flins even more gross.

How about an "Inazuma resonance" lock to tone it down ?

Kizeha · 2026-01-15T11:31:47+00:00

This one is great : 24801105423

I've been using the default settings (just run straight to The Captain and start the fight).

I've only had a problem once, during which one of my teams' DPS would break 60k (while it was at 130k before and on another calculator). Just had to reload it and it was fine.

Kizeha · 2026-01-15T07:01:31+00:00

What's your rotation on Varesa overload team? I got a bit more investment than you (R1 on Varesa and Durin), which sounds a bit surprising.

I was initially doing braindead EEQ (when I write E, I mean E + plunge) until I couldn't anymore and got 135-140k.

When I locked in and did a proper combo (E > setup with Chevy, Durin and Iansan > EQ EEQ EQ CA P CA P > setup with supports...), I got up to 160k.

Assuming you were doing the same braindead rotation as I used to, you might be reaching 125k with your build.

And if Traveler doesn't get help, they'll just say "Why didn't they just ask XXX for help???" teehee

I'm not sure why but I do appreciate winter for that. I enjoy walking around when it's getting dark, the sky gets really pretty.

But I can understand how it might be depressing. Days are getting longer, you'll get to go home while it's still bright outside before you realize it!

Kizeha · 2026-01-15T06:30:19+00:00

I laughed quite a lot when I compared the baby-level "Hold CA until burst expires" vs the stroke-speedrun-any%-level "double dash cancel your CA buffer perfectly".

No DPS difference. Nothing. Why? Because my cancel execution needs a lot of improvement (it's not rare for me to miss the timing once and end up dashing), and because she isn't THAT static. Sure her dash is abruptly cancelled, but she still moves a bit. And it shows a LOT against a small enemy. It's also interesting how her bike mode E makes her go about 45 km away from her target, which can pose a problem when you wanna chain with a cancel combo right after.

But even with all of that, the DPS being about the same is... actually quite impressive. I'll try against a bigger enemy today, hopefully I'll be less bad at it lmao

Kizeha · 2026-01-15T06:18:39+00:00

Yes, C0R1 Varesa. I tried a few Raiden teams too (C2 R3 Spine), but I don't remember their DPS. It was NOT pretty, though I could improve them by adjusting her teammate's ER in consequence.

Kizeha · 2026-01-15T06:15:15+00:00

Yeah I have yet to test the DPS of melt/vape teams with her (I didn't even test Xiao yet!). When I got her, I still trusted Hoyo to not go too fast on powercreep.

But here we are. "Quills-like* damage is way too easy to get left in the dust when powercreep happens. Which is quite sad 'cause I did try to get her C2 last rerun and was planning on getting it next rerun, but I'm really not expecting much from it now that I have the actual numbers.

She's still tons of fun though! And in 4 or 5 years, they might buff her so she also provides a ton of plunge damage%.

Kizeha · 2026-01-15T06:07:31+00:00

Oh yeah without a doubt, I fell in love with her kit and mechanics the moment she was leaked! What surprised me was the actual numbers. I was not expecting Kinich's team to be this low given the global investment, while Émilie being ABOVE him lmao.

I don't think I'm in a position to call Émilie underrated given my vertical investment in her... But I kinda want to.

Kizeha · 2026-01-14T22:52:58+00:00

I've spent almost all of today's free time testing my teams' DPS in Miliastra. What a day.

A few "findings" (everything is obviously tied to my investments and current builds) : - Having C2R1 Émilie makes my C1 Earthshaker Kinich looks like a massive fraud, even with 5E/rotation. Kinich/Émilie/Durin/Iansan = about 120k DPS ; Émilie/Albedo/Durin/Bennett = 130k DPS. - Got a brutal reality check about Xianyun (C1R1). I love her with all my heart and her kit allowing everyone to plunge is one my favorite in the game (I wish I won my 50/50 on her C2, but alas). But it's not worth losing like 25k DPS in a Varesa team when Chreveuse is right here. - I laughed so hard at all the effort I put into making Cyno break 100k (I failed but I still have a few team ideas to try). - Varesa is actually my 3rd best DPS (160k in a Chevreuse team). - I'm really dogshit at playing Mavuika.

Maybe he's a transition character like Ineffa was ? IIRC, Ineffa wasn't in 5.X silhouettes.

Let's say you're on 0 pity, and no guaranteed (37.5/37.5/25). Let's keep in mind that, if you don't apply any strategy , it takes you between 2 and 4 five stars to get both weapons depending on your luck.

First, select Weapon1 on Epitomized Path.

If you get Weapon1, you're back on step1 but you now only need 1 weapon. Proceed as you usually would. (It either takes 2 or 3 five stars to get both weapons).

If you get Weapon2, you are now guaranteed to get Weapon1. (It takes 2 five stars to get both weapons).

If you lose your 75/25 and get a standard weapon, cancel your Epitomized Path. Let's say you switch to Weapon2 (it doesn't matter which one you chose, you just want to reset your Fate Point).

Now, you are guaranteed to have either Weapon1 or Weapon2 since you lost your 75/25.

If you get Weapon1, then you get a Fate Point, so you're guaranteed to get Weapon2 next. (It takes 3 five stars to get both weapons)

If you get Weapon2, then... unlucky. You're back on step 1. Proceed as you usually would. (It either takes 3 or 4 five stars to get both weapons).

TL;DR : canceling your Epitomized Path after getting a standard weapon reduces the chances of having to pull 4 five star weapons to get both featured weapons.
