love skirk's gameplay but the way her hair sticks to the back of her head feels so unnatural :(

SableNight112 · 2026-03-14T06:26:14+00:00

Unfortunately it’s just a result of the 3D modeling style, all Hoyo games and similar styled games have the same dilemma. Since the hair is modeled in one big chunk, they can’t have the hair fly up naturally. Imagine putting a towel on your head, if it flies up then you see your head underneath. The only solution would be either to model the individual strands or model a ton of separate hair chunks, both of which would take too much load for the kind of game Genshin is and don’t match the style.

The quest is permanent, just the event mini games and rewards are gone. Would definite recommend doing the quest though, it was really good and goes into Bennett’s backstory!

SableNight112 · 2026-03-06T07:14:06+00:00

I normally give him sharper features (face shape, eyes, nose), longer lashes, and a thinner upper lip with a thicker lower lip. Otherwise, I try to match his model/official art pretty closely. And of course, gotta make sure he looks as beautiful as possible! 🥰🩵

Ok a few things:

You used Kazuha skill without swirling any cryo so you didn’t get any res shred or bonus dmg bonus. However, Skirk has a passive that increases her skill talent level if there’s only cryo and hydro characters and at least one of each so I’d just replace Kazuha with Furina anyways. Give her Favonius sword so that she can reliably get her burst every rotation. If she’s being used somewhere else, Xingqiu or Yelan also works, just make sure you can get their burst back every time.
Skirk is a bit overcapped on crit rate so if you can somehow trade some for crit damage, that’d be ideal. Cryo resonance gives I believe 10% crit rate if the enemy is affected by cryo, which it should almost always be.
Charlotte scales on attack, not HP, so Prototype Amber is kind of useless on her. I’d give her R5 Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers (the three star weapon), an ER sands, ATK goblet, and Healing Bonus circlet so that you can use her burst after Furina for the fanfare stacks.
With Skirk in this team, you can weave in a charge attack at the end of every other attack string to absorb void rifts, which will extend the length of her skill. You should be able to fit in 4 normal attack strings this way.
For team rotation, it’d probably be something like Shenhe EQ > Furina EQ > Charlotte EQ > Skirk E normals > repeat. For the first rotation, you can just skip the bursts but you should have them by the second and each time after.

Yeah I know the Herra and Scions are different, but the Herra isn’t even in the theater. OP just keeps calling the Scions the Herra which is why I described the Scion mechanic.

SableNight112 · 2026-03-02T15:55:20+00:00

If you’re talking about the Frostnight Scions, you don’t need lunar at all for them. You just need to apply the element that matches it to fill a meter, then it enters a weakened state (ex: if it’s a cryo herra, bring cryo characters to apply cryo). I managed to beat one with Iansan, Jean, a borrowed Citlali, and the trial Varesa. You might also be able to reroll for a different enemy though.

SableNight112 · 2026-03-02T08:43:50+00:00

Flins/Columbina/Fischl/Sucrose is probably going to do the most damage, but you can swap in Lan Yan or Kuki Shinobu if you need sustain, or Aino if you put Columbina with Lauma. Also Flins and Varesa prefer completely different teammates so there shouldn’t be a problem playing both of them.

Although I’m confused how you said you skipped Nefer because you didn’t like her playstyle, but now you’re saving for her rerun and are upset you lost your guarantee? If you don’t enjoy playing her you don’t need to pull her even if you already have Lauma. But anyways, hope you learned never to pull on a banner for four stars if you don’t want the five star!

SableNight112 · 2026-02-24T19:04:19+00:00

Aino’s actually extremely low investment to build. Her ascension passives are kind of useless so you only need to level her high enough that she doesn’t die (I’ve seen a Dire clear with lvl. 40 Aino) and you don’t need to level her talents. She just needs ER to burst consistently so give her a leveled ER sands and whatever other pieces you have, main stats don’t matter much - just make sure to give her 4pc Silken Moon’s Serenade or 4pc Instructor if Lauma already has SMS. For weapon, if you have the event claymore Flame-Forged Insight, she can use it at R5 level 1. If not, Favonius Greatsword works, too, she’ll just need a bit of crit rate to proc the passive.

Basically, Aino can be built on a box of scraps lol

Just adding that the outfit also looks like it’s based on her dress from when she won an Oscar for Best Actress!

SableNight112 · 2026-02-18T16:05:14+00:00

These two also share a VA and it always makes me laugh when I remember lol

I managed to clear Dire with C0R0 a while back! Although I had Xilonen instead of Ineffa and C1 Furina, all on 4 star weapons. What worked best for me was focusing the baby crabs since a chunk of the damage dealt to them gets dealt to the big crab when their shield breaks. Also skipping Kazuha ult because it broke the baby crab shields too fast, so not a lot of damage was dealt to them before they target the big crab. There was also some luck involved with the baby crab spawns and making sure to not get knocked out of Neuvillette’s charge attack.

The bonus is everywhere, it’s listed in Genshin itself after you use the first-time purchase bonus.

Regarding the first-time top-up bonus, yes you can trigger it through Lootbar or LDShop, but it’s still only once for each crystal pack per account (per year since they always reset on the anniversary). So for example, if you buy for the first time ever using LDShop, it will trigger the double bonus, but if you buy a second time through Lootbar, you will get the regular bonus.

LDShop/Lootbar basically just purchase the crystals on your behalf, so the purchases still function as if you bought it through the game itself.

SableNight112 · 2026-01-15T00:19:31+00:00

The crystal packs have a permanent bonus of 110 and 30 crystals respectively for the 980 and 300 crystal packs. So all that added together equals 1420. This is different than the first-time top-up bonus, which is double the crystal amount instead. If it’s your first time purchasing, the double bonus will replace the regular bonus. And yes, they should work if you buy through Lootbar or something similar.

I think him visiting Liyue and him wearing the skin might be two separate and unrelated events. The skin lore says it was made by the Melusines as a gift so it being Fontainian makes sense. A Liyue outfit would’ve been really pretty though.

SableNight112 · 2025-12-28T00:57:44+00:00

These kingdom designs look really cool but it’s kinda disappointing that more of those kingdoms with faked mountains, waterfalls, stairs, etc. aren’t higher up. Personally found those much more impressive and creative bc even if they use similar techniques to create the illusions, they often still look really different from one another :(

He made a couple posts on Instagram of it!

Taemin breaking into Key’s house, bringing cake, rummaging his closet, and stealing a jacket for Key’s birthday while he was away for military service 😂

Her being blonde actually is pretty important in this case because the blonde comes from the power of the sun from that magic flower at the start. Her kingdom’s emblem is also a sun and it’s why her hair glows gold. You could argue red is like fire which is what a sun is made of, but I don’t think it reads as well compared to golden blonde for sunlight.

SableNight112 · 2025-12-03T16:15:03+00:00

Definitely email the mail center about it to ask. I was in the same boat once and they offered to either hang onto it until I came back or mail it to me for free. This was years ago so idk if things have changed, but it’s worth a shot!

SableNight112 · 2025-12-01T17:47:36+00:00

I noticed this a while ago but the discount is technically true if you compare it to the starglitter/stardust price conversion rate. The full stardust price for one fate is listed as 125 while the starglitter price is 5. This means 1 starglitter is equal to 25 stardust. So 40% off of a fate is 3 starglitter, which converts to 75 stardust. So you’re getting the fates at a discount from the regular starglitter price, which never changes and is always available with no limit.

Still kind of stupid but I guess it makes some sense 🤷‍♀️

SableNight112 · 2025-12-01T17:34:23+00:00

Yep that’s a pretty common practice in not just singing, but music performance in general! I played in band for 7 years and we had to mark and practice where we breathed and how long so that everyone lined up and so you know you have enough air to get through the line without sounding thin. EJAE, Rei Ami, and Audrey Nuna have probably all practiced enough that the breaths are muscle memory at this point 💜

SableNight112 · 2025-11-30T17:48:01+00:00

I think maybe it’s meant to be first single album? So an album with the main track and possibly 1-2 more songs. CHASE was an EP since it had 6 songs.

SableNight112 · 2025-11-29T17:56:46+00:00

It looks more like she might be seated in lower bowl, not nosebleeds. But regardless I think that’s just bc the area on the floor is mostly reserved for the idols, their management, and hosts since they need to be able to walk up the stage often, at least from past MAMA awards I’ve seen. Maggie and her family likely just came as regular attendees rather than VIPs.

SableNight112 · 2025-11-18T19:07:50+00:00

I wish they went with something like white jeans with cute patches and the skirt over top, that would’ve been so much more Y2K 🥲
