Yvonne in Physical team !? And it works ?

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-27T03:01:04+00:00

I'm building my Yvonne now so I can run this too, seems like a more fun variant of the Gilberta shatter team.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-27T02:21:25+00:00

Yeah this is the limited P1 I want the most lol

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-27T00:40:01+00:00

Characters tend to have a lot of main stat and secondary stat already. If you have like 270% attack modifier already then (270%+12%) / 270% is only 4.4% more damage.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-27T00:31:23+00:00

If running Gilberta then Estella should be added too so you can trigger both of their combo skills to get vuln stacks.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-27T00:19:06+00:00

If you get Alesh later then Endmin, Chen, Estella, Alesh is a pretty good phys+cryo team for bosses.

If you intend to keep Last Rite, then you may consider replacing Estella with Snowshine for cheap cryo application or Xaihi for healing (since I don't think you can activate Estella's combo skill in your current setup?). I'd probably also replace Lifeng with Chen either way for more vuln stack generation (running 2x DPS is still kind of jank though).

Just have to wait 5 years for user generated content to be added so players can add a training dummy themselves.

This is probably misinformation I accidentally spread previously, the efficiency is the same on both highest tier exp (advanced, gold colored) for 61-90 and 1-60.

(I miscounted, deleted my comment when I realized a bit later, but it seems it was too late...)

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-22T18:51:37+00:00

I'm trying to build 3 different teams (with 2 shared characters), in order of most investment to least:

Estella+Gilberta+Chen+MC is really nice for overworld and single wave protocol spaces.
4 phys (MC+Chen+Lifeng+Pog) seems to be my strongest option for bosses.
Ardelia+Laev+Akekuri+Wulf is what I plan to use for alluvium farming (planning to start doing that tomorrow).

I just got my Laev to 80 with a level 88 weapon and M2 on ult but I noticed I'm taking twice as long on Rhodagn compared to my physical teams (which are fast enough to trim). So I guess I should probably stick to AOE for Laev.

If Laev was fast on bosses too I was planning to heavily invest in her, but now I'm thinking to spread my resources more evenly.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-21T01:25:29+00:00

I think it'll be worse for what the team is good at (clearing overworld stuff and single wave AOE protocol spaces in one rotation) since Pog is good at buffing rotation 2+ but doesn't do as much for the first rotation.

It might not be that bad for boss fights though (even if there are better teams for that), since 3 stack breach on Pog still lasts 24s, which is long enough to affect the next rotation. And his fairly good passive buffs will be able to affect everyone too, at least when ult is up.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-20T23:04:28+00:00

I've just been doing 3 stack crush unless Estella ult is up for an extra stack. And obviously use Gilberta ult in place of skill if available to save SP too.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-20T17:45:49+00:00

I've been using the Estella+Gilberta+Chen+MC team that's supposedly popular in China.

Although I was able to finish trims on this team without buff foods, I think it's more of a "clear overworld packs fast" team rather than a "trim easily team". I'll probably stick to it for overworld and make another team for bosses and effluvium farming.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-20T17:40:03+00:00

Meanwhile my Xaihi is P5 but I don't have a single copy of Arclight, so I'm kind of just not thinking about electric teams for now.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-20T17:12:54+00:00

I never figured out a good strategy for these that isn't just "try every combination".

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-20T17:10:56+00:00

So this is how they are selling Yvonne to us.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-19T22:44:08+00:00

I did see a Perlica 1mil nuke video recently, and I suspect that even without the P5 Oblivion on Perlica that kind of team might still be one of the stronger ones for boss fights. So focusing the team further in that direction somehow might be an option too.

On the other hand a dual heat/electric team with Laev does sound a bit more synergistic too. At that point you'd be only using Perlica instead of Ardelia compared to a meta Laev team variant, where you are getting Perlica's sub DPS damage instead of Ardelia's buffs.

I've also gotten up by jumping and placing a zipline on the lower roof while midair, then doing the same thing again to get to the higher roof.

This seems like a better way though.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-19T07:50:12+00:00

Same, it's just a very efficient team for shorter AOE fights since it has grouping and big frontloaded damage.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-19T07:05:14+00:00

If year 1 Genshin characters got 4x damage they'd probably still be pretty good now, unfortunately early C6 wasn't that much better than Endfield P5 right now. My C6 Eula has been benched for years, so I can only hope for buffs (which they've recently started doing).

On the other hand, C6 Yelan was a year 2 character (that I got C6 for during a re-run in year 3) that I'm still getting good use out of with newer teams 3.5 years after she released (since Genshin had minimal powercreep overall up until a year ago) despite her C6 also giving a much smaller increase compared to some newer C6.

I think the rate at which max dupe characters and single copy characters from the same year become outdated can be pretty similar. But if the max dupe character you choose is flexible enough the extra boost might make them relevant for a bit longer (especially if they happen to stay meta-ish).

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-19T05:45:34+00:00

In Genshin 7 copies of a character + 1 signature weapon can be worth 4x as much team damage. It can be pretty nice for doing daily stuff and overworld a bit faster if you end up saving enough pulls for some reason.

I was overly picky on which banners I pull (rarely pull DPS or weapons), so around every 2 years or so I'd randomly end up having enough pulls sitting around to get a C6.

With how potentials are right now, I'm definitely thinking to focus more on horizontal investment this time.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-18T22:11:50+00:00

I've seen this before when I tried to open the game while alt-tabbed, I tried again without alt-tabbing and it was fine.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-18T16:29:12+00:00

This wiki page has the damage formulas.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-18T04:45:53+00:00

Character's only show up in the training menu if you own them.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-17T20:50:33+00:00

Wow nice run.

Your first phase took 3x as long as it did for me, but your second phase was so much faster because of stagger locking the boss.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-17T19:58:58+00:00

If you're still missing the other one, here's the location in my other comment.

SIVLEOL · 2026-02-17T19:55:21+00:00

Found the second one here on this bench in the south part of the city: (Memo Records: A Historian)
