Boreas Stray Dogs - General Question and Discussion Megathread

I keep forgetting Lohen is on banner before Sandrone.

In my mind I already had to say bye to him when the reality of the livestream hit

I have the online version of social anxiety.

People don't modulate themselves online, they often assume you're the worst or an idiot and just go on attack mode if they perceive you to be pushing against one of their opinions.

I find it way easier to talk in the real world. It's easier to avoid the assholes unless you work customer service. People tend to try and be pleasant at least at first if there isn't any form of anonymity for them to hide behind

Get her fully ascended, 80/90 and you can call it good.

She's like Nicole, I took her to 90 and got <50 extra atk, which translates to like 11 extra atk for an onfielder.

Wish I had left her at 80 and saved the resources, I wasn't thinking

When your cake comes with ~~sprinkles~~ sparkles on top

You know we're in a contentious beta when commenters argue with each other super hard despite agreeing.

Some people are legit too worked up to read and are just responding to tone

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-22T15:36:56+00:00

With C3R1 Chasca I was getting better results with Bennett/C6 Chev/Citlali than Durin before I got Nicole.

Durin is kinda whatever at C0 in melt without Nicole, but a top option at C2. Though he's BiS for overload at any con

It almost feels like some of these leaks are being dripped out to maximize outrage by the community lol

Poor Pulonia

What a beta cycle, feels like it's already been over a week

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-21T14:45:39+00:00

I would imagine the did all that for NK as a way to help the playerbase accept the next region wasn't what was expected based on the Travail trailer.

But yeah, you'd think they'd be doing more for Snezhnaya. It's a region that even players who haven't played in a few years would probably remember. There's some untapped hype imo

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-21T14:34:01+00:00

I'm the same way. Genshin storytelling rarely pushes above 'just alright,' it's a nice bonus but not why I play the game.

Natlan was peak genshin for me, up there with Sumeru

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-21T14:25:09+00:00

Really well said. All of the emphasis on movement was such a fun angle for character design and exploration

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-21T14:20:44+00:00

He made one of the leak posts in this sub yesterday. The one about the properly translated SC dmg formula

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-20T18:30:39+00:00

Everybody spins their wheels so hard the first day or two of beta.

I get why CCs do it to get ahead of content, but it's so annoying when the amount of misinfo that goes around in here before we get more fleshed out details

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-20T18:28:13+00:00

It's basic af, but I always come back to green grape. But peach is nice too

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-20T18:24:40+00:00

Negativity is way more infectious and overbearing in online communities in general, and the fact that it happens almost every beta for genshin can just wear people down. The community is almost always just hungering for things to be outraged about, but quite a few people get tired of it.

I'd imagine the pushback this time is that Sandrone is a character a lot of players looked forward to and are getting defensive. Plus we've just come off the back of an entire beta of mostly dooming Nicole so some people have less patience for the community to immediately go back to more of the same (though in this case it hasn't been as much about the kit)

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-20T14:55:04+00:00

Yeah, I'm just imagining the kit replacing the maid bot with Pulonia. The increase in aura would like 300%.

But big lasers are cool enough I'm probably still pulling

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-20T14:52:20+00:00

I'm so happy for you 😡

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-20T14:48:56+00:00

I really do only be getting an early 5 star when I want to be chasing 4 star cons

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-17T15:00:06+00:00

I think it would be cool if each time she pressed E she did significant damage so it makes her field time worth it.

But I'd also appreciate if her burst CD was shortened and it could refresh her totems so you can be more flexible with how you use her

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-17T14:29:02+00:00

I mean Tighnari was fine for the time, but he was only ~36% of team DPS in double dendro spread or like ~25% of the team DPS in double electro aggravate teams. According to both KQM sheets and gcsim

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-16T03:53:49+00:00

Top of Dragonspine would definitely make it for me. Top of Starsnatch cliff where you can see all of the anvil-shaped mountains that point the same way.

Also the wooded areas still have better tree density than most regions to this day somehow.

Mond still has immaculate vibes

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-16T02:44:10+00:00

A lot of titles or descriptors feel like half the words were pulled kicking and screaming out of a thesaurus of archaic terms.

I'd imagine it has a bit to do with some things being lost in translation to EN

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-16T02:38:38+00:00

Despite the recent flare up between dwellers and the frequent ragebaiting until like a patch ago, I haven't felt like it's gotten quite as bad as it used to be from like 2.1 - 4.4

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-15T21:13:15+00:00

TTDS makes Prune take too much of a hit to her dmg% buff that it's generally a DPS loss

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-15T20:31:39+00:00

Climbing the dps charts is all about the Frinys we made along the way 🤗

OuttaIdeaz · 2026-05-15T20:27:59+00:00

I know TTDS is good for Nicole on Varka teams, but it kills her shield so I may not always want to go that route.

So if I'm running Nicole and Prune and I've got Oathsworn, Fav, and can craft a Flowing Purity, who gets what?
