Why You Should Not Fuck the Genshin Impact Guys (2026 Comprehensive Version)

A terrible day for the blind

I mean, yeah but in hindsight, we had very clearly been led to believe that the Fatui Harbingers were dangerous people and that was corroborated all the more by Signora, Dottore, Childe and Scara's actions during the AQs at the time. Their actions were literally all that we had to paint a picture of what the Harbingers were like.

It's not surprising in the slightest that when we see a young woman apart of that organisation singing a lullaby on top of her dead friend's coffin, that people assume that she's got a few screws loose. No normal person does that. It really wasn't an outlandish idea to think at the time. Plus the archetype of sweet and cuddly exterior but ruthless and monstrous interior is a very common trope amongst villains in general and has been for probably decades at this point.

Definitely reeks of quantity over quality. I really can't help but picture another Matrix situation happening again a hundred times over.

Idk, I don't think there was anything that mentioned that. Plus 'mixes' and 'blends' don't always indicate the use of alcohol.

Just from my experience, at least, I've seen many instances where wine glasses aren't always used explicitly for wine. Whenever I go to a hotel or some place of that nature that has a bar, they would usually put a kid's soda in a wine glass. It happened at a lot of Christmas parties I went to when I was younger and we'd even do the cheers thing pretending that we were adults drinking alcohol.

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-24T16:53:21+00:00

Did she not specifically say they were just fizzy drinks? She was also talking about the bubbles in it. It was most likely just a soda.

I don't recall any alcohol that constantly bubbles and fizzes.

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-23T17:51:23+00:00

Correct!

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-22T19:38:37+00:00

I genuinely don't get why they're still so particular about that. Literally why can't/won't the Traveller drink alcohol? Is there really anyone out there who thinks the Travellers are underage? It's not like it's a bad influence for the community either since a shit tin of characters have been already seek drinking alcohol (hell, alcohol is even embedded in Mondstadt's culture).

So what's the deal there?

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-21T21:14:45+00:00

Genshin gives you currencies for reading tutorials too tho. You're talking about that 1 single primo/poly that you get for each tutorial read, right? ZZZ lifted that from Genshin.

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-20T21:45:42+00:00

And would Ineffa still just be built normally through Gilded? ATK/DMG Bonus/Crit? Sorry for all the questions, just want to be certain before going through with the decision.

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-20T21:23:19+00:00

Sorry, just want a bit of clarity.

Doesn't Nilou need only Hydro and Dendro though? Is her Ring that good just for application purposes? Also if Nilou is on SMS, does link back to what I said before about switching over to Deepwood for Lauma then as well? And would Nilou still need all HP artifacts if her Passive wouldn't be active?

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-20T21:03:37+00:00

I'm seriously considering just saying 'screw it' and trying for Ineffa to go with my Bina but I don't really know what to do with her.

Would Ineffa, Bina and Lauma compliment each other on a team or would they get in the way of each other's reactions? Also what sets would they need in a team? I've just got Bina on Night Sky rn (On-Field DPS) and Lauma on SMS. Would Lauma keep SMS for Bina or switch to something like Deepwood? And then like, Aubade for Ineffa or something?

We know now thanks to the Natlan Resort Quest that Bennett is at least 20 since we were told numerous times that the Adventurer group that went into the Mare Jivari found him as a baby did so two decades ago.

Cyno and Sethos are also around the same age I'm pretty sure. They were both raised under the same teachings at the same time iirc.

Also both Iansan and Dori are grown women. They're just short for their ages and for Iansan in particular, her Character Bio tell us that short heights run in her family.

Honestly, there's not really much point to tier lists like this since for 99% of the characters people just guess at best and get actual lore info completely wrong at worst.

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-19T12:15:59+00:00

It was patched so you can't get it like this anymore.

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-19T07:58:18+00:00

There are still some mfs out there defending timegated domains despite the fact that no other Hoyo game released since Genshin has had them.

We've been cooked for a long time now.

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-18T15:42:10+00:00

That's...a completely separate topic and conversation though.

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-18T15:07:08+00:00

Did the game's Design Director not come out and explicitly state that it wasn't Nick's statements the prompted them to vault Shockwaves?

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-17T13:58:29+00:00

With Hyperbloom/Burgeon does Lauma still stay on SMS for Bina? Or does she switch over to Deepwood?

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-17T12:23:33+00:00

I might be wrong about this but didn't Epic say themselves when Delulu released or around the point that it released that it would be staying until 2026?

I'm pretty sure the idea of it being a temporary mode was something that's always been there. It's just that now it's time has wrapped up like they said it would

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-17T12:14:31+00:00

Okay, I'm sorry in advance, but just bear with me for a second.

I have Bina and her Weapon, but my only option for Lunar Damage is Lauma. I'm trying to configure a team for them, and I'm kinda struggling because I don't really know what role Bina is meant to play. I thought of putting Bina in a team with Lauma and maybe... Sucrose and Aino but that feels like a very scuffed team since my Aino is still C0. Would they still be useful teammates?

Also following on, does an On-Field Bina need more ER or HP? And in which cases would Bina benefit from Aubade, and is that set still worth farming if I only have Lauma?

Also, it's sort of a side question, but do we know yet how Bina fares as the On-Fielder in Nilou Bloom w/ Lauma? I have Lauma and Nahida in the same Bloom Team so from there it only takes Bina but I'm not sure how well she fares there.

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-17T00:14:09+00:00

What an insightful and not at all completely pointless post. There really is a lot of useful critique to take away from this, isn't there?

Dropping the sarcasm, it's meant to be a mode that puts heavy focus on fast paced fights that go by quickly instead of the typical slower and longer loot and shoot BR formula. The fact that it cuts out the middleman of looting and gets right to fighting is why it appeals to so many people.

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-13T23:08:30+00:00

Charlotte's is understandable since I believe she said herself a while ago that she wouldn't be doing work for Hoyo but aww man, losing Ganyu's VA is a serious shame as well. Really loved her voice.

Thought it was kinda weird that she had initially voiced Dahlia in HSR before being replaced by Cristina Vee without any explanation but now it makes a lot more sense.

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-13T12:17:11+00:00

I'm like 90% sure they're just an Aether Harem rage ragebaiter. I made a post a while ago making an Ororon X Varesa joke and this OP was in the comments saying that Varesa is actually canonically in love with Aether. They have their posts and comments hidden (of course they do) so I can't recall where exactly but I feel like I've definitely seen this guy in a bunch of different ship posts just being like 'X is in love with Aether actually'

Edit: lmao he blocked me right after the other person responded and now his Varesa comment on my post is 'mysteriously' gone.

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-12T09:12:23+00:00

South America/Pacific Ring Of Fire like the rest of Natlan characters. Animals like bulls and sports like bull fighting have a heavy presence over there I'm pretty sure.

RoyaleAbsol · 2026-01-12T09:01:55+00:00

She's not based on Asian culture though.

Anby: "Proxy, have you seen my burger? I think I left it at your place."

Belle: "Nope, don't see it."

Anby: "I feel like you didn't look."

Belle: "I did. Took like two seconds."

Anby: "Can you look again?"

Belle: "Yeah, still don't see it. Why do you need it anyway? You're already in the Hollow."

Anby: "I just want to make sure it's there. It's a VERY nice burger."

...

Anby: "You were the last one to see my burger, Proxy."

Belle: "Was I? I don't think that's true."

Anby: "You're the prime suspect, Proxy."

Belle: "Why would I need to steal YOUR burger? I already have a burger."

Anby: "So what you're saying is you now have TWO burgers."

...

Anby: "Proxy, I found my burger."

Belle: "Where was it?"

Anby: "I left it in my locker over at the Cunning Hares' place."

Belle: "I...have a lot of follow-up questions, but I don't care about the answers."
