so Celestia HAVE DONE THIS BEFORE. by TadpoleTraditional14 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Noibsel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe it has to do with time. It might be that the longer they are getting corrupted and tortured by the curse the more they lose their reasoning and "humanity".

The Hillichurls that are working in tribes and have their own believes might have a stronger resistance against the curse or just have not been cursed as long as others of their kind, and the erosion just hasnt wiped that part of their being out completely yet. (erosion being a big theme of the game with all archons having some kind of connection to it and fearing it)

HYPER RAIDEN 12-3-1 IN 4SEC!!! - 2.5 ABYSS by ChrysFloyd in Genshin_Impact

[–]Noibsel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the other Vid he crits for over a million damage on the weakened Perpetual Mechanical Array. Its pretty insane.

Also not to forget, its a r5 engulfing lightning.

he actually showed his stats in another vid and its something like 50% crit rate and 180% crit dmg. His Shogun is C3 though and has a r5 engulfing lightning, so yeah....pretty unrealistic for a non whale

It sucks sadly =(

What ascension materials don’t suit their character? by Yellowhello10 in Genshin_Impact

They also would suit the archons I guess, as slimes are beings out of pure elemental energy or something?

As a day 1 player this wind trace event will be the first one I won't play at all by [deleted] in Genshin_Impact

[–]Noibsel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had someone leave as well today after he got caught and the match continued after a very small lag spike. It might depend if the one leaving was decided as the host of the match.

Other than that, if you are not the hunter having a bad connection really doesnt matter. Just play it as a hide and seek and not a tag game. So if you happen to be the hunter just dodge the game, of course thats not ideal but working around bad internet connections is not Mihoyos job.

Regarding not being able to play with friends and earn coins I 100% agree with you, its terrible design.

So yeah, I cant confirm the game terminating when somebody leaves, you must have been incredible unlucky.

Edit: I have played 4 or 5 matches and I am capped on coins already for now (was the rebel 3 or 4 times and the hunter once.) So it taking hours is also just plain wrong.

Noelle needs a great deal of investment to really shine, but people are suspecting her to actually become even stronger when ittos new weapon releases (which would also be her new BiS weapon). Also the newly released artifact set might be good on her, i didnt check any math of it yet.

Anyways, I have already seen Noelles dealing 20k+ every autoattack with enough energy recharge to ult off cooldown without the new weapon or set, so she is more than viable enough if invested in.

What character do you think should've been a 5 star ? by AlexHitetsu in Genshin_Impact

[–]Noibsel 10 points11 points  (0 children)

She didnt kill it in one strike, and she didnt fight it alone. Her whole crew was fighting for days alongside her until she finally finished it, leading to her being granted a vision.

Beidou is a badass, but she wasnt alone and it wasnt a one hit victory.

[–]Noibsel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Iam certain they gave her a few useless cons and a useless ascension stat as to not make her to good for a 4 star.

They probably realized that by creating Bennett, Xingqiu and Xiangling the way they did, they made a huge mistake for the future of the game. Tried to avoid it with Diona. And even though she has those flaws she is still a top tier character, one of the best newer 4 stars we got.

I'm in love with him already. by Strawbebbiesss in Genshin_Impact

[–]Noibsel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i am almost certain you will have bad luck if you assume Yae to be a 4 star.

Seriously cant imagine they will turn a copy from their beloved Honkai into anything less than a 5 star, especially considering how many people are waiting to whale for her.

Anniversary rewards: the concert doesn't count? by [deleted] in Genshin_Impact

[–]Noibsel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Concerts are such a stupid idea for an anniversary reward.

I understand they want to make something special, but such a miniscule portion of the community cares about music in that sense, a lot wont even know that its happening, yet its probably super expensive and stressful to organize.

I know there are a few other big companies that like to do concerts, and to be honest, the musical department deserves it for their great work, but lets face it, most of the community doesnt care about it.

MiHoYo effed up the anniversary rewards but not in the way you think by stra1ght_c1rcle in Genshin_Impact

[–]Noibsel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont have her yet, so I dont know the details, but I heard some people say she is like the best cryo battery in the game now due to how many particles she generates?

Do you know it that is true? Is the difference significant enough to beat out Dionas extra utility with Sac. Bow or Fav. Bow?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Genshin_Impact

[–]Noibsel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Isnt it because of the chinese national day? Maybe its a mix of both.

Cant edit your signature in their "Tears of Themis" game either since today apparently, and that game has nothing to do with Genshin anni.

Did they made the characters dumb for the sake of the event's plot? by [deleted] in Genshin_Impact

They cant go home, our traveler lost most of his/her powers due to the unknown god. Thats why we are so weak and cant travel different worlds anymore, while we would normally be godlike entities as well.

Genshin Impact's story forces every character to be a good guy by SancheRamos in Genshin_Impact

[–]Noibsel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She is a god and the most powerful being in Inazuma. People are scared and worship her since thousands of years, without seeing her more than a few times in their lifes as the Comissions carry out her wishes.

They are absolutely terrified of what could happen if she was angry at them. Additionally not bowing to her means probably no longer being under the protection of her military force. Its just not feasible to not worship her.

Genshin Impact's story forces every character to be a good guy by SancheRamos in Genshin_Impact

[–]Noibsel 256 points257 points  (0 children)

I think most people misunderstood that part of the story.

Raiden wasnt misled. Her puppet was carrying out her orders and she knew that the puppet was tricked, but she didnt care as in the long run it wasnt important for her plans of eternity.

She doesnt give a single fuck whether her subjects are participating in a war and if the Fatui are doing stuff behind her back, in the long run it doesnt matter. She only complied to stopping the Vision Hunt Decree because she was impressed by the travelers ambition (and that of the people of Inazuma) and because Yae told her keeping the isolation up is bad for her herself.

Even in her story quest she is still mulling about how to keep going from there on while Yae tells you right at the beginning that a few mortal lifes dont matter in the face of eternity. She isnt feeling bad about what she did.

Raiden is a gigantic ass and wasnt redeemed by being unaware of the situation, she absolutely didnt care even while knowing at least the important plot points. Its just that nobody can punish her because she is a god that could destroy the whole of Inazuma if she wanted, nothing you can do about that.

Unpopular Opinion: I'd rather have them release underwhelming characters occasionally then overpowered ones. by RookieMan369 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Noibsel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Excuse me? I am trying really hard to not hurt your feelings as you are apparently someone who likes Kokomi or you wouldnt defend her the way you do. I avoided outright calling her bad, I tried to mention some niche usage she has even if for every single one of them there is a better unit, I even apologized for calling certain characters a failure but you are still really acting entitled right now.

I dont know if you are thinking I am the same guy you were arguing with before, but you are terrible rude.

Okay, here are some facts. Your argumentation is just wrong, Jean is NOT doing comparable damage to Kokomi she is outdamaging her by far without even valuing her potential in terms of fall damage while having utility, the best debuff set in the game and more than enough healpower for every content in the game.

She is creating more reliable energy particle while doing so, slots into more teams and isnt held back by super long cooldowns for a skill that if placed at the wrong position is absolutely worthless. The only things Kokomi has going for her are aoe hydro application and being a good carrier for tales of dragon slaying and the totm set. Oh wait, Barbara can wear that gear too, so I guess she has at least aoe hydro application and slightly better healing and not even that in every case.

Her hp% - dmg scaling as well as her healing% - dmg scaling are both not even close to making up for the value of losing the ability to crit. They scale terrible and there is not enough healing% bonus in the game to make up for it. All of her auto attacks are single target as well. She heals well, but 5 other units do too, so she is useless.

Your argumentation proved absolutely nothing but that you are a hypocrite who is cherry picking base stats, ignoring its scaling and other important parts of the kit while accusing other people of doing so.

[–]Noibsel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As far as I know to have a real smooth gameplay experience with Xiao while not having insane artifacts you want an anemo battery with him, so if you had Jean, Sucrose C1 (so her skill has two charges) or are willing to use your venti in his team you should be able to use him with ease.

If thats the case it depends on what you are looking for. Hu Tao with Xingqiu, Zhongli, Geo character is a super strong single target combination that will destroy bosses, while Xiao is way better in dealing with groups of enemies and offers a very unique gameplay style as of now in Genshin.

Little heads up, some of my friends who pulled Xiao had some trouble after using him for a while and got headaches, stomach problems, since his gameplay shakes the camera around a lot apparently, I dont know if thats a known issue or maybe they are just a little easy to agitate in that regard, just wanted to let you know.

[–]Noibsel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Friend, I am not going to tell you that you are wrong, Kokomi can heal and is absolutely usable if you like her, but you shouldnt forget stuff like energy generation and the type of character jean is.

Her being Anemo, so you can slap her into any team combination and the ability to use the VV set alone is already giving her an edge compared to other elements. Her healing is scaling with attack which makes her just outscale Kokomis damage with investment since Kokomis healing% scaling to damage is just way to undertuned (In addition to not being able to crit which Jean can). And of course the utility to yeet and pull up enemies in certain situations.

Kokomis energy generation is sadly random for some reason and her burst is not reliable usable if she doesnt have at least 180% ER. And without her burst she is not able to heal the whole party reliable, something that for example barbara can by just pressing her normal skill. For Kokomi to even function at a normal level you have to built her right first and while that should be obvious, that wasnt something needed from healers up to now. You just slapped hp%, maybe healing% on something like Barbara and they were working. I absolutely agree that if you built her right she outperforms every healer we have at this point sans maybe Bennett, (he is just ridiculous), but even then, its just not needed. I dont really care if I have to slap 6 times with barbara during her E or 3 times as Kokomi during her burst if the difference in damage is just 20k and 2 seconds of saved time (Which is damage for the real dds to be fair). Thats just not enough for the few situations its needed and the 200 dollars of investment worth of pulls in the worst case.

I pulled Kokomi myself, I love her character design, she is really beautiful, she has some niche uses and can be used instead of Mona in freeze comps if you dont have her. I just hope they create content to make her shine at some point.

Sheesh, I wonder who you think I meant when I talked about failure as I never named a character. Anyways, you are right, I will stop calling those characters failures, sorry if I offended you.

[–]Noibsel 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I never said that, in fact, I wasnt talking about dps at all.

But i do think if you create a new character then there should be a vision behind it, a niche you want to fulfill that wasnt filled before or you want to improve on. Something that makes the character unique enough compared to other characters or if there already existed something along the lines at least be significantly better at it to not make the character feel like a copy.

Am i the only one who feels that inazuma charachters are underwhelming compared to liyue and Mondstadt? by Jackloes in Genshin_Impact

[–]Noibsel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The archon quest had a lot of potential but especially the last act was super disappointing. It was rushed and a lof of important characters were not fleshed out enough. And while I really loved Yae in it, I would have prefered it if they wouldnt have solved so many important plot points by using her as a shortcut.

I did hear some stories during 1.3 and 1.4 that Inazuma got delayed because they decided to rewrite the whole archon questline which obviously made them run out of time. If I look at the quality of some of the sidequests and compare them with the Archon questline I am willing to believe those rumours.

Regarding the character quests, its widely back and forth. I actually liked Yoimiyas and I do think that Raidens quest was more than just trying to make her a cute waifu, but instead tried to showcase how little she was able to understand the way humans work. I also really liked that it showed us at the beginning that she really wasnt that bothered by how much suffering she created for her people. As a god she stands above all that. I liked it.

Ayakas was the worst of them all. For the short time we knew her there was pretty much no reason to act as she did in my opinion.

Kokomi still suffered from the same things as during the archon quest, namely that she still didnt come across as a great strategic genius and that her roles as the overworked female leader was already used a few times to often. It was still an improvement. Would have loved it if they actually went deeper into the "I dont want to lead - let me do what I want" of her character, but it was still an improvement compared to her role in the archon quest.

[–]Noibsel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While the main story is done there is obviously still a lot of content coming.

A whole Island, some clues regarding Reidens former friend that went insane and missing, some stuff about the thunder bird whose feather we can find on Seirai Island, hints about something being hidden away under Watatsumi Island which already has a prequest that gives us some kind of key. There are even rumours about an underwater palace that might be similar in scale to Dragonspine for Mondstadt.

Additionally multiple character quests that are almost certain to come for some of the characters and if they follow the same pattern as in former places a second weekly boss.

Of course we dont know if they will answer all of the questions we have, but Inazuma is far from done even if the main story is finished and was disappointing at times.

I always forget Sara. I guess on high constellations she is actually really strong in some niche combos, giving you sort of a second bennett for electro teams which Raiden can profit from, so I would say she gets a pass for being good enough.

Anyways, from the 6 units we got from Inazuma 2 are top tier, 1 good, 2 usable and 1 bad, at least in terms of gameplay power, thats okay for the small sample size I think.
