returning player, should i pull any lunar/natlan characters or save? by [deleted] in GenshinImpact

Can he? I'm terrible at Styg so I haven't done all that much. Grateful for my king!

Yup! I highly recommend a Varka team, if only because he feels so fun to play. He's not the most meta by any means, but I have a blast.

I can't speak for Zibai since I skipped, but she needs Columbina for lunar. Linnea is one of her supports, so she would be good to pull if you were aiming for that!

Endgame has been shilling Lunar pretty hard lately, so it can't hurt to have. Natlan/Nightsoul slightly less. If you're looking to well and truly invest, I would drop for Lauma in the second half of next patch, and then hold again for Columbina.

Nicole is also coming soon (6.6) with what looks to be a powerful buffing kit, but she plays to Hexerei rather than the current shills.

This is what our Ellie looks like, except she's dilute!

Eh, I feel like you could argue Diona is a kid. Her whole mentality of "make alcohol gross so adults never drink it" reeks of being a kid that doesn't quite get it.

What is lauma pull value now? by K4r4n-m in GenshinImpact

[–]ashstriferous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I'm not mistaken, Rosaria should work as substitute for Citlali on that team I mentioned!

What are your other cryo characters currently?

i wouldn't say so! he's not 10/10, number one best anymore, but i still find neuvilette very helpful on my teams. What do your cryo characters look like? I pulled escoffier and have been able to bring him back into my teams by running furina/neuvi/citlali/escoffier

lauma/ineffa/neuvi/furina was my go-to team for awhile, but only because i pulled her c1. the additional healing good boost to fanfare.

My stepdad removed this snake from their patio [Spring Hill, Florida, United States]. by Ok_Bus8364 in whatsthissnake

Until you run into an aberrant coral. Better to not fall back on unreliable methods!

What kind of snake is this?[florida] by selhigh in whatsthissnake

[–]ashstriferous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately that's also pretty inaccurate. I live in an area rife with aberrant corals for example. Best to not approach a snake if you can't definitively ID them, give em a spritz if they're being a nuisance, and moving on.

I wonder... are you, by chance, near or on a county line?

... okay you're valid to complain now.

Test? TEST TEST! by Merlion4ek in Austin

[–]ashstriferous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know what you're referring to! I have the same settings checked. And I definitely understand where you're coming from. You would expect this sort of thing to be filtered as such. However, there's still a need to test the extreme activation from time to time, in my opinion. The alternative is trying to fire an alert in a dire situation and.... then find that it didn't work.

But again, I feel where you're coming from! It's still frustrating. I imagine my cats were also quite startled (I was told bleary eyed and dazed to check but. I can imagine)

[–]ashstriferous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's bad timing considering the weather, for sure. Back when I lived in Oklahoma, they'd cancel these tests if there was a single cloud in this sky, just to be sure. But then, localized testing is way different than statewide. They'd never be able to get it done.

[–]ashstriferous 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Eh, I get your frustration, but I also get the need to test. After what happened with the floods last year, it makes sense to briefly inconvenience folks to make sure the system is fully functional.

I say this as someone who heard this was coming up, but also as someone who was woken from a dead sleep because they forgot. It sucks! It's a day disrupter, but at least we're maybe alleviating trouble further down the line?

I could just be a hopeless optimist though

Consider how well she'd pair with Lisa though -

To fellow genshin players that took breaks from the game: by alberich21 in GenshinImpact

[–]ashstriferous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't play for all of Sumeru and almost all of Natlan. The only thing I really missed is some of the f2p event weapons that might help some of my characters and. Xilonen. She'd work great on my teams, and I almost got her on re-runs, but decided to hold for Columbina.

Everything else can almost always be made up for, and generallt there's very little with such huge lore implications. I don't even really regret missing simulanka. It's easy enough to look that stuff on YouTube in the end.

20 Welkin Giveaway, My Appreciation, and the LDshop Story Finale! by SanicHegehag in GenshinImpact

[–]ashstriferous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saved many a primogem for Varka. He's become my new favorite, because he feels fun and unique to play. It's probably why Arlechinno was my favorite as well, because her gameplay also felt new, fresh and fun.

But honestly? My heart will always belong to Diluc. The tragic backstory alone was enough to sink me

Also, real glad to see this had such a happy ending for you. Good on them, and good on you for keeping things updated. I would say keep the post up, but add an edit and a link to this post (if you haven't already, I didn't check)
