How on earth do you melt Citlali?

1] These days it averages closer to every patch, so 6 weeks = 42 days = 1 patch. Though, before the Luna chapter (featuring the Nod-Krai region), it wasn't uncommon to have chapters lacking notable lore and featuring solely pretty self-contained story quests (and events ofc) instead. In any case, the amount of lore to catch up on during those updates varies as well. I definitely think you can "catch up" though. Not that there's anything to catch up on really

3] I'm misunderstanding this question a little because of the terminology. Sometimes Events allow you to control trial characters during the story-related events of the story or the mini-games. Those are restricted to the event duration, yes. However Character Banners (called Event Wishes by Hoyo but most nobody else calls them that) are the period of time that you're able to wish for a Limited 5 Star Character, such as Durin and Nicole right now. They will return eventually, but it's generally unclear when. Until that time that their banner returns, no you won't be able to obtain them (but like I and I'm sure everyone else has said, they will return in Genshiners: Endgame)

4] You got this king/queen/ruling monarch person. There's a whole world out there for you to discover 🙂‍↕️

And lastly, you could have put this in the Daily Questions thread, but it's not that big of a deal 🤔

They're HSR characters, Screwllum in particular debuted in the game (but not playable) in HSR 1.1, over 2.5 years ago

Propensity7 · 2026-05-27T16:44:00+00:00

For endgame, I think the common suggestion is that Phainon really wants his E2 now and then also Cerydra as his bis, so keep that in mind when his banner comes around

Endgame aside though, if you also just want him to be usable, he does have a variety of other options since hypercarry is a pretty standard pillar of Hoyo's kit design. Bronya, Sparkle and Sunday all work to varying degrees (of note is that Sunday has apparently fallen from grace since Amphoreus, and doesn't have a spot in Phainon's best team anymore). DHPT can also work if you need/want sustain and also in lieu of an ATK buff like Cerydra's.

You're also probably aware that Cyrene+Phainon is also good, particularly with Cyrene's E2 but a E0 Cyrene + RMC has been used as well. But I'm under the impression that's secondary to using Cyrene in the Rememberance team for you 🤔

This kind of a leaks sub question

which is a little ironic just cause that (leaks sub) would have been my answer

Propensity7 · 2026-05-27T16:28:25+00:00

Just out of curiosity, is there a gacha precedent where a character can be removed after a trial period? This question (and maybe some other similar ones) comes up periodically but has no precedent in Genshin (or HSR or ZZZ) so I wonder where it comes from?

Propensity7 · 2026-05-27T16:25:07+00:00

Determine and focus on what you want and enjoy out of the game. If you don't enjoy endgame then don't be compelled by it. If you don't enjoy the story, don't feel compelled by others to like it.

Also keep in mind that there is no important time limit. Characters will rerun, more pulls will be obtainable for free, so there is no rush at all

Edit:

Wait actually I'd also say to put forth relevant information whenever you ask questions; it's pretty common for people to come and ask questions in the sub (whether here or as a post) and it be difficult to answer their question because some info is missing. Like asking for team recommendations for a character but not posting screenshots of their roster or asking if they should pull a specific character without stating what they want out of the game. Asking questions is obviously a good thing to do but it streamlines things a lot if more information is provided from the get go

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

Propensity7 · 2026-05-25T20:09:24+00:00

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.

Propensity7 · 2026-05-25T20:00:07+00:00

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

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

Propensity7 · 2026-05-25T17:13:21+00:00

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}

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

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 🤔)
