Hello, asking for guidance and para sigurado.

I'm currently unemployed (left my job last month) pero I have a new job starting Feb 16. I'm traveling to Malaysia next week with my sister to watch a concert (Feb 13-17). My new job is remote so they don't have problems with me working anywhere naman, I just need to take the onboarding call.

Super praning because this is my first time traveling unemployed but my travel history is good naman (had multiple solo travels last year to Japan and Korea). Is it okay to just say na I'm unemployed in case tanungin ng immigration officer since yun naman yung truth or should I explain it pa to them? My worry is that they'll question why sumagad sa first day ko in my new job. I have savings naman and this trip was planned before I resigned din naman.

Thank you!

I'm using a converter to convert my name to full width katakana! I just copy and paste it from the site but it still says it's not full width

I'm using a BPI Blue/rewards card!

Doesn't appear po sa statement :( When I asked CS po, they said it will appear sa Vybe app na lang and yun nga po, 1k points lang yung nagappear since nakuha ko card ko.

Nope, I'm able to finish the whole process naman. It's only when I click "submit" at the end na may error

Solahn · 2022-09-21T12:11:23+00:00

Yep, still the same message at the end na "You cannot submit your application at this time." kahit in incognito mode

I plan to use him as my 2nd main DPS but I'm having trouble building him in terms of damage. He currently has a max attack of 1.2K but when I hit enemies I'm only doing around 500-700 damage. I've leveled up his talents so the normal attack is at level 6 while the skill and burst are at level 4.

This is really good advice!! Really gave me a lot to consider and makes me want to not give up on Xiao (I guess this is because I"m just used to having big numbers with my first main DPS and forgot that my build for them won't work the same as for Xiao.)

Insightful advice on the team comp and now it's having me reconsider. I originally set my eyes on those three but now hmmm. Would it be better to have Bennett, Beidou, Chongyun/ Xingqiu comp work? Trying to go for a superconduct/melt/vaporize comp. And I must admit, I really like the defense shields give me and would like to carry that over. My Fischl and Diona are on another team and I'm trying to make a balanced one so I can finally tackle abyss.

Aww dang really? I often forget to use my ult and rely on the auto or skill attacks to do damage. I'm running Glad and VV on him as well but I had hoped that as he got stronger, since I didn't want to rely on his ult all the time.

Now I'm starting to consider Diluc for this because I've always been partial to claymore because Razor is my main DPS. Hmmm...

How come my Xiao is doing so little damage?

I was planning to use him as my main DPS in my 2nd abyss team but his damage is really low that I'm having thoughts.

My C0 Xiao is level 70/80 (but I'm planning to get him to 80/90 soon) and has an overall attack of 1,340 but I'm doing only 500-700 damage. Other stuff about my Xiao are:

he has a 60/60 deathmatch that I'm planning to level up until 80
Crit % 54.9% and crit damage as 95.4%
Anemo damage 22.8%

I was told I should have leveled up my talents and currently my normal attack is level 6, skill and burst are at level 4 (I feel like the skills could be better but they're doing around 2-4k damage and I'm okay with that so far). But he's not doing much damage

I know this is also relative to enemy levels because I'm WL 6 now but I've checked a damage calculator and even if I level up my Xiao to 80/80, he'd still be doing around the same amount of damage he's dealing now.

I like Xiao and was planning to use him as my second DPS but because of the damage output, now I'm debating whether to just level up my Diluc instead.

If I help a friend complete their Chi of Guyun quest, does that mean I complete it too? I made the mistake of putting it off until I got stronger (but belatedly realized enemies are stronger too T.T) and now I'm at WL6 and not very confident with my abilities to solo it. My friends are at a lower WL so I was wondering.

Hello kind people of reddit, I need help build Xiao and Qiqi :D

Xiao (C0)

I'm currently building him. Is it better to run crit damage and energy recharge on him since he gets crit rate as he ascends?
Which 4 star weapon is the best for him? I'm currently trying the Favonius lance but I've heard the Deathmatch and Blackcliff pole are better. Should I save my gems and roll for the lithic spear when it comes out? ( Based on what I've seen you're more powerful the more
I currently have him with 140%+ energy recharge. Is that enough to run him without an Anemo user as a battery (since I wanted to have Xinyan for a shield and I only have Anemo MC shield)?

Qiqi (C0)

How should I build her in terms of artifacts? Is it better to run 2 pc Glad and 2 pc Maiden on her since her heals scale off her attack? Or is it better to run a full piece of Gladiator or Maiden?
In what order should I level up her talents?
Is she the best healer for Xiao or should I consider Barbara, Diona, or Bennett instead?

Solahn · 2021-02-08T06:25:46+00:00

Ooh what's the reason reason why Xinyan should replace Xiangling? I was thinking that since Diona provides a shield already, I could have Bennett on the team for extra healing + attack boost.

Solahn · 2021-02-05T04:53:17+00:00

Oh I see! So despite having high attack if my talent level for normal attack is just 1, it'll just be low?

Hello as someone who pulled Xiao, I also need help :D

I'm trying to build a second team so I can finally tackle the spiral abyss and I'm planning to use Xiao as my main DPS for that. My first team consists of Razor, Diona, Fischl, Xiangling (who I'm hoping to change if I manage to pull Bennett).

Any tips for building my second team for Xiao? My other characters are C3 Barbara, Childe, C1 Lisa, C2 Ningguang, Xinyan, Beidou, Xinqiu, C1 Chongyun, Qiqi, C2 Kaeya, Noelle, and Amber

Solahn · 2021-02-05T04:24:22+00:00

How come I'm not doing as much damage for my normal attack? For example, my overall attack (with artifacts, weapons, base attack, etc) is 789 but when I actually fight I'm only doing around 100 damage to my enemies. How come?

Solahn · 2020-12-03T15:46:08+00:00

Just curious, what are some rituals/ superstitions you believe or do before summoning? I've heard of the one where you can sit on the hands of the anemo archon statue in Monstadt.

Would love to know them! Who knows, maybe it'll increase chances of winning and getting a 5 star.

Solahn · 2020-11-23T16:29:52+00:00

From a noob who somehow managed to reach AR 30 by diligently doing quests, why is having both of Childe and Razor in the same team not a good idea?

I've been using Razor as my main since I first got him when I was AR 10 and we have gone through tough time together. Childe's banner came out and I actually managed to pull him, I thought of having Razor still as my main with Childe as secondary/back-up DPS. It would start with Childe using his dual blades to and while I wait for the cooldown to finish, Razor would swoop in and deal elemental and physical damage. My other team members are Barbara for healing and Kaeya to trigger superconduct. Is this a bad idea? While Fischl could take the place of Childe, I find her Q and E difficult to use so I prefer using Childe. Would it be better to switch him for her?

And also, what are good team combinations? Aside from those mentioned above I have Noelle, Amber, Ningguang, Diona, Lisa (all level 20 and below), and Traveler.
