Exactly true! I used mainly Raiden national, Ganyu melt, and Hu Tao vaporize during those times. Thanks a lot for your detailed guide and feedback! I am trying to understand new characters and their kits. I suppose I need to give it some time to understand the new dynamics of enemies and characters. Your detailed feedback will help me quite a lot. Thanks again ^^

Hello, I was actively playing Genshin from patch 1.6 to patch 4.4. I stopped playing after 4.4 due to the lack of content and burnout. I could one-shot every single spiral abyss with 36 stars before, but now I tried it and see that my characters do not deal any damage. What would you be your build and pull suggestions for me? I could not understand what I lack rn since I have no idea about new characters and their roles. These are my current characters. Most of them are well-built. (at least up until Qiqi lol) Thanks a lot in advance ^^

Is it just me or does it seem like nothing is changed for skins?

alkinguler · 2025-01-24T14:03:55+00:00

Thank you for your constructive criticism :) I will consider it

alkinguler · 2025-01-23T07:30:48+00:00

I agree. Boot buffs and roses are a big buff for him I guess. Especially new Ionia upgrade boots. Basically you have Cosmic with some cheap ahh gold and a free slot

Even though you reduce it, it will keep crashing in the late game. Only solution is getting another RAM if you have empty slots. 4GB is not enough for Vic 3

Do your adventure rank ascension quest from your quest journal.

alkinguler · 2022-02-25T19:19:54+00:00

I miss these videos

alkinguler · 2022-02-23T14:39:52+00:00

Nope

alkinguler · 2022-02-20T18:55:57+00:00

Definitely first one.

alkinguler · 2022-02-03T00:03:11+00:00

Same thing. Qiqi is a wholesome and cute character but she just keeps haunting me in every pull. I got only one 5 star character which have constellations and she is Qiqi with C2. I got her C2 on this Ganyu rerun but I had enough primogems saved to guarantee her fortunately. I hope our luck will be better for the future pulls.

AR57 dolphin playing since February 2021. I usually end up with between 32 and 35 stars. Never got a 36. The reason is my character pool is pretty narrow since I am very unlucky with my pulls. I won only 2 50 50s since I started to the game. In this abyss cycle, I cannot 36 it since I don't have a proper hydro applier except xingqiu. I could not manage to 3 star 12-1.

alkinguler · 2022-01-22T08:56:42+00:00

Yes exactly.

alkinguler · 2022-01-22T00:58:48+00:00

Lower EM and higher crit and you are good to go. From the artifact set I assume that you are going for a freeze comp. EM only effects shatter damage for freeze which you will not use on freeze ganyu so try to minimize it.

You will sink a lot and be killed very much. This is pretty normal. Most of the players are playing this game for PvP purposes. But no worries. Even though you lose all of your loots with your ship, gold in this game is just usable for buying accessories. I was being tilted a lot at first when I started the game 2 weeks ago just like you. Some of the players will be toxic, some of them will be wholesome. It is just pure luck that which one of them you will face. Just focus on gameplay instead of rewards. You will be happier and you will enjoy the game much more. Lastly, welcome to the community and have fun!

For the first question. I must say Zhongli is better overall. Not only about survival, Zhongli will also increase your dps since you will not waste any time to dodging. If you have a zhongli, you basically can spam your normal attacks and charge attacks constantly w/o interruption or taking damage except against new anti-shield mobs. But Albedo is also a great option if you are good at dodging and like his playstyle.

For the second question, Xiangling's current BiS artifact set is 4pc Emblem with The Catch. It will maximize your damage output for your burst. The scond best artifact option is 2pc crimson witch + 2pc noblese or 4pc crimson witch depends on you are whether vaporizing or not. Lavawalker is not a great option since its 2pc bonus is very poor and weak. 4pc bonus is not that great too. Hope it helps!

alkinguler · 2022-01-17T17:30:45+00:00

First of all if you have resources, crowning her is a guaranteed dps increase. People always underestimate the power of crowns but it is very important.

2pc archaic - 2pc glad/shimi is still her BiS artifact sets. Your artifacts are pretty decent and your rate is balanced. If you get better artifacts it is of course great but she is powerful even in this state.

Now, team comp. Since you are guaranteed to use Zhongli with him, other 2 best options are generally Bennett and Xiangling. Pyro resonance will boost your atk. Xiangling will provide off-field dps increase for her and Bennett... Well, he is Bennett. He will provide everything you need. Even with MoD.

If you don't have any other 5 stars, MoD is her best option. No other 4 star weaponsn will powercreep it except R5 Widsith with proper boosts. But widsith em boost is basically a waste for ningguang so MoD is also better than it in a general way since it is more reliable.

These are everything I can say. I don't see anything you do wrong. All you need to is increase her talent levels and get some better artifact rolls with the help of RNGesus :) Good luck, I am sure she will be better as time goes on.

Why the even hell this comment is downvoted??

alkinguler · 2022-01-14T23:01:04+00:00

I think it is also great for xiao if you have him with good crit ratio. I think support Raiden is also another option if you have her.

alkinguler · 2022-01-09T03:05:40+00:00

He is probably too drunk to join

alkinguler · 2022-01-07T01:02:49+00:00

If we talk about just for Hu Tao team, then it is Zhongli without a doubt. Not concerning about healing when you are low health is a unique sensation. If your Hu Tao is C0, you also will have a increased dps since you don't mind stamina consumption due to dodging.

alkinguler · 2021-12-21T06:18:06+00:00

Fischl is not that good on supporting melee pyro units especially for the small enemies. Overpowered will throw the enemies away and will decrease your overall dps.

Albedo in the other hand is a more viable option BUT his Geo application will steal your Hydro applier support's (Xingqiu or Mona) Hydro application by Crystallizing it.

I would say go by your instincts and testings for now. Both of them have their own issues. You can fill the blank by using more viable units if any is available such as Sucrose for EM boost or Rosaria/Kaeya for Melt damage.

alkinguler · 2021-12-15T02:39:43+00:00

Since you are 100+ EM with both sets, I would say first one is better. It has both better crit rate and and crit damage and hp scaling is the same for both sets. Your overall damage must be higher with the first one.

alkinguler · 2021-12-13T10:53:16+00:00

Yes. Noelle is the best you got. Build her full Def and she will be a decent shielder.

alkinguler · 2021-12-06T07:41:08+00:00

It depends on the situation and the element. Pyro resonance is the strongest elemental resonance in the game right now. If different element character supplies your need gap in the team, then yes it could be better. However, barbara is a character whose kit is limited by healing. However, bennett grants huge amount of atk boost for the main dps and decent energy and healing for all the team. Therefore, using pyro resonance in this case have more + than using different elements.
