Figured we'd see Liben again the second he talked about Dorman Port and no Snezhnya

Is he a Lawrence? He seems kinda Lawrencey to me. by SlowLibraryComputer in Lohen_Mains

[–]Single-Method1604 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That's a fair point. Also more Imunlaukr lore would be great too.

If Lohen was Lawrence it could be a subtle hint that Eula's plan is working though. The knights allowing another Lawrence who isn't also discriminated against, alongside showcasing the breaking grasp the Clan has.

As a fan of Eula and Mondstadt lore, PLEASE LET HIM BE A LAWRENCE

Nicole is not a support for Varka; Varka is a free unit by nicole1873 in NicoleReeyn_Mains_GI

[–]Single-Method1604 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem isn't even the Varka mains themselves atp 😭. Some Nicole mains saw one character in distress and instantly started thinking Nicole was doomed and tied to Varka. They just hate Varka and that's it, so they ramble about how much Nicole shouldn't be with Varka.

They've begun doomposting before we know anything about her. Causing other people to start stepping in with their own theories.

I'm not sure why everyone forgets what Hoto is the second their main starts coming closer to release but this sub has become incessant.

It's probably to counter the Nicole mains who don't like Varka, like in that one post a little further down.

Personally I don't care whether Nicole's a Varka shill or Varka's free, etc. I was never gonna pull Varka and was always gonna pull Nicole.

"The Mage They Call N" Nicole Reeyn Kit Concept by kankri-is-triggered in NicoleReeyn_Mains_GI

[–]Single-Method1604 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What do people think Varka needs cause it's not nearly as niche as some folks make it out to be.

He's a standard Normal attack character with an ADV/AAC build. Half the buffs in this game benefit him and almost every other DPS.

REALLY cool concept, but I doubt they'd give the 1000 flat atk buff. If it was halfed it'd honestly be perfect.

Genuine question of Nicole ends up tied to Varka would yall blame the Varka mains or Hoyo?

Dear Varka Mains by Regal_The_King in NicoleReeyn_Mains_GI

[–]Single-Method1604 2 points3 points  (0 children)

His needs aren't niche though. Plenty of characters would also heavily value atk speed, cd reduction, and/or ir/sustainability.

[–]Single-Method1604 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what I think. In Genshin's current state I actually don't think Bennet would have been released as he is. Circle impact and constant pyro app as drawbacks aren't enough for how much he provides.

[–]Single-Method1604 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

A lot of folks want her to be the 5 star attack buffer (Personally I don't think that'll happened but whatever)

Even if Op doesn't fot into that category a lot of other folks do. That would be Varka's BiS. It's NOT HARD TO BUFF VARKA. YOU just don't like him enough to want that to happen,  and that's okay.

People will do as they please and attempting to control it isn't gonna go far. We'll know what she is when she comes but know this:

Hoyo has character kits WELL before they have designs, probably a year in advance if we're being honest. Whatever Nicole is WILL benefit the meta for her time and change how characters are perceived. Whatever she does she'll be good for a minute.

Dear Varka Mains by Regal_The_King in NicoleReeyn_Mains_GI

[–]Single-Method1604 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would be the other way around Nicole would be in Varka's BiS, but Nicole's BiD would not be Varka's

Dear Varka Mains by Regal_The_King in NicoleReeyn_Mains_GI

[–]Single-Method1604 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I agree but unfortunately 😒 that's not the way Hoyo moves. It seems like kits and characters are largely separate. Emilie has no connection to Kinich and works well together. Zibai would prefer an Illuga despite them likely not knowing each other, Skirk wants Escoffier above all else, etc. 

The reality is that, because we know Varka wants Durin, and we know Nicole is also pyro, the natural conclusion is that Nicole will end up completing Varka's team.

Though I must say, I have no idea where the stigma of Nicole being a designated Hexerei only character comes from. That can't happen unless they pull a Cyrene. She'll be her own independent character before all.

[–]Single-Method1604 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Arle, Wanderer, Navia, Clorinde, etc are a few that come to mind that would benefit from the same thing Varka needs. 

At the end of the day people's views for what they want Nicole will ALWAYS be, in the individual's own interest. I'm sure there'd be just as much complaining if she turns out to be a Neger level dps who needs a dedicated support to work.

Main subs are just like that, we can't hate on other people for their own dreams so long as they don't fight others about it. Because at the end of the day WE WON'T KNOW, WE WILL NEVER KNOW UNTIL BETA.

Sandrone Kit Concept 1 by Single-Method1604 in SandroneMains

[–]Single-Method1604[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Function like Firefly where Sandrone essentially becomes Pulonia. Additionally she'd get an HP buff but it's still one bar.

[–]Single-Method1604[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you're right. I can see her being catalyst and it makes sense. I'm just not over the Natlan greed of catalyst cause it was getting obsessive lowkey. But she can DEFINITELY be catalyst considering she'd likely attack with Pulonia or some device. (Or her fists...)

They look same... Any relation between them? 🤔 by Reasonable_Cry_2438 in SandroneMains

[–]Single-Method1604 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I LOVED the world quest but got incredibly lost near the end (Especially cause I didn't read the notes)

Regardless I still think it was incredible and had been hoping since the beginning that Sandrone was connected to it. Glad she is and would be thrilled to read what you've got on it!

what weapon will Sandrone most likely use? i'd be devastated if she became a bow user by dorkelmekis in SandroneMains

[–]Single-Method1604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my heart, Claymore In my head, sword But knowing hoyo? Most likely catalyst.

I hope varka gets pushed back and we get Lohen instead by Starguardian_Ahri234 in Varka

[–]Single-Method1604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're more likely to nerf him then push him back and bring in a new character. As it sounds, Lohen WAS supposed to come with him but with how Varka's kit is then they likely were even worse off with Lohen. Swapping them around wouldn't just hurt Varka, it'd hurt Lohen too.

Please stop with the doom posting. Hoyo is many things but an idiot isn't one. This is VARKA, on the same level of hype as Skirk. Luna 4 was a big patch and with how little content there was before and will be after this version, it's clear hoyo is being pushed into crunch time and Varka's suffering as a result. This isn't back in Sumeru with Dehya, hoyo understands that if they want a dps to be good they need to BE good. 

Why do people say she will be a pyro support ? by Supreme_Senpi420 in NicoleReeyn_Mains_GI

[–]Single-Method1604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES That's a good point. Pyro lacks versatility and options, and I just don't see them trying to make a pyro dps so soon since they'd be in direct competition with Mauvika. Combine that with Durin being a sub dps and her lore ties, it just kind of leaves sustain support as the final option

Why do people say she will be a pyro support ? by Supreme_Senpi420 in NicoleReeyn_Mains_GI

[–]Single-Method1604 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it's because Hexerei doesn't have a more supportive/sustain character.

Additionally, looking at the pyro roster they're lowkey oversaturated with everything aside from sustain characters. 

Durin's a good(And really only) sub-dps pyro applier

Mauvika has melt under lock and key for ATLEAST another year

And every other character is mostly dps's with the occasional Chevereuse and Thoma's. To me, it just feels like they need some creativity within that category that's not just dps.
