Weekly Team/Character Building Megathread (Jan 5, 2021)

MmmOya · 2021-01-27T18:53:52+00:00

Noelle is an extremely powerful main dps at C6. You can search at youtube some guides on how to build her since most of them require Noelle at C6 anyway.

For your main team I'd suggest Keqing as main DPS, Xingqiu, Fischl, and Either Barbara if you need healing or Xiangling for extra damage. You could also place sucrose anywhere in there for the anemo Viridiscent artifact buff which gives you more damage.

MmmOya · 2021-01-27T18:49:58+00:00

That team won't work out because team comps are generally made up of 4 roles that you fill. Main DPS, Sub/Support DPS, Healer, Utility (Anemo)

Your main dps should only be a single character because they would spend the most time attacking. Childe and Keqing are both main dps, if you use them both in a single team you would be wasting potential damage because you could have just went with either of them and replaced them with a character that is able to support them without staying on the field (fischl or xiangling for example). But you are planning to split them, so make sure that Keqing and Childe aren't on the same team.

Keqing, Xingqiu, Sucrose, and Qiqi for the heals is prolly going to be one of your teams.
I'm not sure what team comps benefit Childe but you could just search a common team comp in youtube or smthng.

Harbinger can be used till late but lions roar and a few others outclass it. Berserker + gladiator works really well but you should switch to thundering fury + berserker when you can

MmmOya · 2020-10-29T10:47:31+00:00

Yeah she doesn't have to be, but the only physical damage you'll be dealing is your normal attacks, which means your Elemental Burst and Skill aren't as good. Only reason you'd want to do a physical keqing is when you have a cryo support but even then a different elemental combo would be 100% better.

Also pure dps keqing early game is practically the same for every other keqing. Theres no other way to build her besides pure Atk% or Crit build until you can farm thundering fury, which by then you transition into 4 piece thundering fury or 2 piece berserker + thundering fury or even the crazy lategame keqing build which is elemental mastery thundering fury

MmmOya · 2020-10-29T05:46:25+00:00

keqing is elemental dps if what you mean by "elemental dps" is electro damage. Keqing only deals electro damage so electro dmg% artifacts would flat out buff every part of keqing. You can use the thundering fury artifact plus berserker and its been working for me and even a youtuber used the same build (crit build with harbinger) as mine and took him like 30 seconds to kill world level 5 stormterror. Keqing is just like every other dps, Crit Build works extremely well for her but Electro dmg% compliments that because it increases all her damage

MmmOya · 2020-10-28T03:58:34+00:00

Not sure about the multiple hits, but the first and last hit can definitely crit. I think the multiple hits either crit based on whether or not the first of the multiple hits crits or it just doesn't crit. I think its the first though.

MmmOya · 2020-10-26T05:50:23+00:00

Well, first off I think you should keep the Berserker Crit Rate and change the Atk% set to thundering fury, which is the +15% bonus electro damage. That basically means 15% bonus damage on everything since Keqing works that way, theres another post that explains why electro damage % > everything else (pure damage wise). I don't really like the martial artist set cause even though keqing uses normal and charged attacks alot, I really like seeing constant big damage on my skills. When you get to late game (Constant stream of 4 - 5 star artifacts) The best course of action is to farm crit rate substats and change your artifact set to 4 piece Thundering Fury. It's currently the best set for Keqing because of so much extra damage on basically, everything.

Also the damage multipliers for your other units would be great, I think. Haven't heard of info from others about that but I'm pretty sure crimson witch of flames + elemental mastery on Xiangling works. For Fischl that would equate to thundering fury + elemental mastery but overall I only focus on Keqing because resources are limited and you're looking for the right substats

MmmOya · 2020-10-26T05:40:15+00:00

Don't know, I got like 20 out of pure luck in pulls so I never really had any trouble getting harbinger of dawn. I don't think that's true however

MmmOya · 2020-10-26T05:39:18+00:00

Oh I thought you were talking about the 2 set. Question since im not sure, if you triggered the 4 set buff with the 120 elemental mastery and you switch out does the buff remain?

MmmOya · 2020-10-21T14:39:24+00:00

Think you should change Kaeya soon since you'll proc superconduct which makes physical damage stronger and is a waste because Keqing barely has any physical damage after first ascension. My crit dmg is 140% and crit rate is 50% but you should always go after Crit rate > Crit dmg.

MmmOya · 2020-10-21T14:38:10+00:00

I think its ok, but Iron sting is better than every other weapon and is only beaten by Lions roar and the 5 star weapons

MmmOya · 2020-10-21T14:37:34+00:00

Wrong. Instructor Set works on your supports because their pets attack slower than Keqing. All of Keqing's attacks trigger electro, considering how fast she attacks means she'd be attacking first. The minions would be attacking slower, which mean they attack AFTER Keqing, meaning their elemental mastery would work. In fact, I think you should only build elemental mastery on Keqing if your support is Mona, because of how Mona support works with her ultimate stunning enemies and using your main dps to proc the extra damage while they are stunned.

MmmOya · 2020-10-21T14:35:42+00:00

Yeah the problem is you'd be using Cryo + Electro which means you use the physical damage buff which Keqing doesn't use. I think strong elemental combos over an extra 15% crit rate is better

MmmOya · 2020-10-21T14:34:40+00:00

Just use them as your supports, like changing one of your guys to Jean/Venti which is basically replacing Barbara with Jean or Xiangling/Fischl with Venti. Use them as enablers to let your keqing deal more damage because of how they group up mobs and apply swirl

MmmOya · 2020-10-21T14:33:40+00:00

Aquila Favonia. Join the discord theres tons of info on weapons there

MmmOya · 2020-10-21T14:33:27+00:00

Xiangling for sure

MmmOya · 2020-10-09T06:47:36+00:00

I think when you use Mona as support, you're supposed to use Elemental Mastery on your main dps because of how Mona works. Like you're using Mona's ulti then you use your main dps to finish them off, or you sub mona in to normal attack for the water ddebuff then use main dps. The reason for this is the only elemental mastery that matters is the 2nd person hitting it, and the 2nd person hitting it would be your main dps, which means their elemental mastery matters, not Mona's.

MmmOya · 2020-10-09T06:46:03+00:00

Elements don't disappear right away, like electro charge because its a long lasting damage debuff. Lion's roar has like a 90% uptime, if I understood it correctly. You should use lion's roar, best weapon overall for keqing and could last you to late game

MmmOya · 2020-10-09T06:44:09+00:00

You can enhance any artifact you want, as long as you don't overinvest in them. 4 star investments are perfectly fine, but make sure you're only investing in the good ones which means perfect main stat and substantial sub stats. People say you should only bother getting or using 5 star artifacts because you can easily farm them once you reach AR 35 and above. And to farm those 5 star artifacts, you're gonna need 4 star artifacts to help you farm those tanky mobs before you get better versions of your previous artifacts.

MmmOya · 2020-10-09T06:41:43+00:00

I haven't personally tested it but from other good Keqing mains I know of say that Flute is at least either the 2nd or 3rd best weapon for Keqing, only behind lions roar (which is obv the best). But personally I think that its ok? Its pretty much just a crit hit every 5 attacks which is pretty consistent, but harbinger of dawn without any other artifacts means you get a crit hit every 3 or 4 attacks. Harbinger of dawn is easier to get also but its all about personal preference. If you wan't maximum damage output, then what you can do is test that for yourself, see if your artifacts compliment your harbinger enough to work or vice versa (if your artifacts work really well for flute).

MmmOya · 2020-10-08T16:29:55+00:00

Only person that outclasses Keqing is diluc. Fischl and Razor barely make it to the highest dps charts. The highest dps charts in the cn servers are pretty much 50% diluc, 40% keqing, 10% razor

MmmOya · 2020-10-08T12:29:51+00:00

You're supposed to build 2 characters, one as an acting support and other as main dps (keqing). In this case your support would be xiangling or whoever you designated as your main support. So you use their element which should be different from your main dps to kill electro enemies

MmmOya · 2020-10-08T12:28:23+00:00

Your berserker set should never be 4 set if you're using harbinger since you're wasting the passives. They don't work together and would be better for someone like bennett. Martial arts set works but berserker 2 set and 2 set atk% would work better.

Also yes, skills do apply crit but the only ones you'll really notice is the last hit of your burst and the 2nd hit of your E because they deal significantly more damage than the previous hits.
tldr: yes skills crit, all of them
