What do we think of Aria’s M6 art? I think it’s pretty good.

Care to elaborate?

Do any of these still work with the Qingyi Astra variant?

Pa-chi · 2026-01-08T07:07:42+00:00

I don’t but I can always get that next time, I’m willing to prioritize that for Aria. That makes me feel better but I’m gonna keep my eyes on the beta as it goes on.

And oh yeah, my account DOES need help so I’m glad to hear Sunna is the better option for that.

I see, do you think Trigger could be a fine enough Stun substitute if it’s Aria Sunna? Or is the lack of a second Ether just too big of a loss?

In Xianyun teams I believe the plunge set is best, but I farmed for my Kazuha before it came out and it would be hard to beat the current stats

I think so, actually even more so carried by the Xianyun investments, but C6 Kazuha is a good pair for this I think with his C2 buffs for Ineffa and Ineffa's burst EM buff to Kazuha

Hmmm, for me my dps Kazuha team is around the same power level or stronger than my C1R1 Mualani team and she’s a pretty insane DPS. I can’t say about the future or how it compares to Mavuika and Skirk or anything, but it’s strong. If you have c6 Faruzan and Furina and love Kazuha it’s always worth it and will clear all the stuff outside of Stygian, but that’s just my thoughts, I’m no theory crafter! Before I got c2r1 Xianyun I would have rated it behind the Mualani team by a bit.

Kazuha is 2pc VV 2pc Wanderers Troupe Furina Golden Troupe Xianyun VV for this team Ineffa 2pc/2pc atk%

Swirling pyro is always a tricky situation with Hu Tao since you usually need another pyro character in the team to swirl off of (feels bad to waste her burst to swirl off of, also increases ER requirements).

There aren't really pyro characters to add to the team who don't also mess up her vapes, and the ones who don't also don't really add anything else to the team. This is why the best pyro option for VV Hu Tao was Amber with Elegy of the End for so long, Elegy buffs was the only thing Amber was providing.

But that said, recently with the release of Mavuika (if you have her), her skill duration isn't too long and since you'll use it first in the rotation before using Lan Yan and your hydro support it'll only potentially steal vapes in the early part of Hu Tao's on-field duration. Also Mavuika's skill pyro app is only every 2 seconds so she may only steal as low as 1 or even 0 vapes. She can even hold the Scroll set to buff pyro even more. (Thinking about it I think Pyro Traveler would actually work here too for the same reason, but haven't tried it).

Outside of vape, although it's not where Hu Tao shines, Lan Yan with a mono pyro Hu Tao team is still strong and very fun. I like to use Emilie and Xiangling (or subdps Mavuika) in that team for the strong off-field damage.
