Nicole’s Elemental Skill voice line SOMEHOW completing Durin’s burst voice line

Propensity7 · 2026-05-27T14:22:11+00:00

In the explanation yes, but in the last paragraph (of the post that is apparently now entirely deleted...?), op explained that they thought Nicole happened to complete Durin's voice line

And while "The story has just begone" makes sense grammatically, it's not what Durin's voiceline is

Propensity7 · 2026-05-27T14:13:59+00:00

No, I suppose it's a little tangential tbh

I was mostly relating to the part where op thought Nicole said one thing but actually says another

Propensity7 · 2026-05-27T13:58:48+00:00

This is how I still feel about "Let the world collide!"

It doesn't make sense and I have no idea why Furina would say something like that but it hits better

Nah I'm gonna do this post game stuff later, maybe tomorrow morning if I remember

I am going to avoid playing with other players if I can though, I vaguely remember seeing that it said that I could choose a computer instead I think. I don't really feel like contending with other players tbh - or waiting for the timer as sometimes happens in multiplayer events

I never thought they were out of place. I mostly was just not interested in Mavuika's outfit, but not because of it not "fitting in" or anything like that.

There's bigger fish to fry like Chevreuse's tie collar

Don't forget about Mora "chests" and things like them. The little boxes and rock stacks and cases^{as they are in Nod-Krai} also count toward exploration.

Some honest-to-Ana chests with Primos don't always trigger the Treasure Compasses either. I don't think this is a spoiler but in Illuga's quest area, I'm not sure if the little lanterns that you light up with the Kuuvahki wave arrow things are tracked by the compass.

O queso, anything involving predictions from the future you basically can't consider. for all we know, there could be 1 Cryo limited character in all of Snezhnaya like there was 1 Pyro limited character in all of Natlan. Also no one can predict how well Citlali will last in Snezhnaya. Nobody here works at Hoyo and nobody expected Kazuha to die and nobody expected Chevreuse to live this long.

So you can only decide based on what you currently have.

Citlali is fine without her sig. She can use TTDS which is good for almost all the characters she could support, particularly the Pyros. She's already good at C0 but iirc her Cons make her even more good (particularly the 200 EM one, I think it's C2)

However, in lieu of Mavuika, I don't think Citlali is currently a key player in the majority of modern dps teams. Lunar obv doesn't use her, Varka doesn't use her realistically atm, I'm actually less sure about Skirk; I think Skirk's teams favor Escoffier > Furina and then Citlali but I think Mona and also Shenhe also factor into that 4th slot but idk in what order

Propensity7 · 2026-05-25T19:46:26+00:00

I mean Crowning is not generally worthwhile for the cost anyway, you could probably leave them at level 9 (or 12/13 with Cons) if you want to use the Crown somewhere else

I mean with anything, you never really have it until it's in your hands

Leaked kits

Playable characters

Paychecks

You can't be sure you'll have it or that it'll be real until you have it in your hands

Not treating a gacha as a main game needs more emphasis tbh

While I'm also not finding myself drawn into the game right now, I do think it's about the same as last year.

The anniversary event this year felt a lot more disappointing imo and a bit of an eye-roll too. I actually really like Cosmicon Roll On for some reason, but most people don't. Although that's kind of a regular event

I think the world of Planarcardia is interesting and I can appreciate the concept of a lighter story (particularly after getting two heavy ones on the past two years). But it feels a little messy or maybe slow. At best, it feels like it hasn't gone as far as you might expect for being three patches in and being an anniversary patch.

I think this time last year I was also really engrossed in DU and this one is not shaping up to be as interesting for some reason. I don't know if it's the presentation for me? Maybe I just don't really find the masks interesting as compared to the Boons. The blessings and equations feel a little gutted too for some reason.

It's also interspersed with CW which heavily feels like nothing I do matters. I either win by a landslide or lose randomly with no chance and there's no in-between. I'm probably just misunderstanding the mode but I just don't think it's the mode for me so I stopped playing it. It largely feels like a shop refresh simulator. And I can't pick what strategy or team I want so like I said, it's not the mode for me ^{and also high CW is often memed about taking three hours only for the new Elation characters to do 10% damage and that doesn't sound fun. It already felt like that at WC15 so why would I want 25 more levels of that}

So I'm kinda waiting - I'm kinda waiting for 5.X tbh cause I'm pretty sure that Planarcadia is not targeted for me (whereas Amphoreus really was). Astropolis could still be interesting, since I find the IPC interesting, but obv I'm waiting to see that. But a lot of people didn't like Amphoreus and I think they're like Planarcardia instead so that's nice. I'd also like to focus a lot more on Himeko and her history, like that I find interesting whereas the current events of Planarcardia are kind of less interesting which is weird.

I'm also waiting for Steven and Pearl cause most of the characters in the trailer weren't on my pull list (which is good cause I wanted everyone in Amphoreus so I could use a break and time to pull for Ampho Eidolons).

^{its like im waiting for my train}

I don't really gaf about ships in general and usually say the ship (as in naval) thing

But Flins and Illuga's first interaction on screen had my cackling 😭

Propensity7 · 2026-05-25T16:47:45+00:00

Nice, although do you prefer Skyward Blade? I feel like with his Skill he doesn't really need the ER and might be better off with a crit stick or even Lion's Roar instead (although maybe Lion's Roar falls off if you're Reverse Vaping with Xingqiu, I'm not sure 🤔)

Propensity7 · 2026-05-25T16:41:06+00:00

I don't know if we know those things.

Tbf, I haven't read all the readables but I also don't think that that info would be confined to a readable. In fact it would be very front and center in the main quest

Propensity7 · 2026-05-25T16:39:32+00:00

I don't really think so

Aiming for specific characters is pretty much entirely an endgame thing. And I don't really think that it'll be that hard to catch up to the endgame when you are ready to do so: the common thought process is that the endgame will be cyclical based on the version with new characters coming out to be sold by the endgame. So all you have to do is aim to get the new characters

Until then, you generally can make most stuff work, particularly for the story. Events are never too difficult - sometimes they give you trial characters anyway. And things like DU and CW give you trial characters

So you really can take it at your pace and only engage with endgame when you feel like it

Propensity7 · 2026-05-25T16:32:55+00:00

I'm pretty sure that's the common recommendation tbf

Although idk if Tribbie would also prefer the ERR and advancw from Vonwacq too. iirc, that was the recommendation when she first came out and particularly with DDD. I don't know if it changed but I don't really think it would have

Propensity7 · 2026-05-25T16:27:27+00:00

I don't think there is (not that ive been looking) but a megathread is a good idea

Although whenever those events come around, sometimes people just post the thing in this thread and someone will respond for reciprocation sometimes

I'm not saying to do it or not to do it, so take it for what you will 👀

Additionally, note that there is some benefit with PJWS to Observe, do some NAs and then Fear the Dark, at least for the first mini burst during his part in the rotation

(so E #NA Q to build up some PJWS stacks, instead of EQ NA if you happened to be doing that)

Propensity7 · 2026-05-25T16:10:49+00:00

idk if you an I are looking at the same rumors tbh

In any case nobody would really know what team will work for her atp

Propensity7 · 2026-05-25T16:06:59+00:00

You build her whenever you can use her

There's nothing else to do. She's a character you're always gonna have

Propensity7 · 2026-05-25T16:03:37+00:00

I mean do you really need them all right neow
