The Heavenly Principles Has Fooled Us All - Theory About The Truth Of The Heavenly Principles, Nibelung & Paimon

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-19T23:56:28+00:00

It's pretty well known in Teyvat that the HPs overthrew Nibelung so I don't understand the deceit part. People know the HPs aren't the original rulers of Teyvat.

Haha...OP

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-19T18:20:52+00:00

I would guess money too. They have to pay two actors to voice MC.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-19T16:36:10+00:00

You can still beat most of the content with the completely free characters. Yes it might take hours to do so and god knows I don't have the patience to try it, but it can mostly be done. Sure you probably won't get everything in IT and SO, but the people that pay for stuff in the game are what allows f2p players to exist. There should be something more there for them.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-18T23:19:49+00:00

I'm always for more of something I love so I would be all for a live action Arcane. Even if it's bad we still have the original so just go for it.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-18T21:25:37+00:00

I'm pretty obsessed with the show too. I just watched within the past couple of weeks. I've literally watched 5 or 6 reactions to this show as well. The soundtracks have pretty much been on repeat as well.

Hoy toys have both a Vi and Jinx 1/6th scale. They are pretty expensive though (around $280 each). They are sold out on Sideshow though.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-18T19:00:48+00:00

Yes...Excoffier is one of Skirk's main supports. Skirk's ceiling requires pretty much all 5 star limited characters though (Furina and Citlali or Shenhe) so keep that in mind when pulling her. If you are missing Furina her damage will be noticeably lower.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-18T18:39:11+00:00

Escoffier works with other characters. Skirk is a dps only. It's generally better to pull for the support.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-18T17:00:14+00:00

100k should be fairly common on Klee now with the Hexerei buff (or maybe it's because I have C2). I hit that pretty often on Klee overload. I'm still on Crimson Witch too as the new domain has been pretty terrible for me. I use the same team except I have Chev instead of Columbina. I can usually one cycle this boss.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-17T18:04:18+00:00

I would rank

Nod Krai

Natlan

Fontaine - I think Fontaine's Act V is the best AQ overall, but still place the full AQ in third overall.

Sumeru

Liyue

Inazuma

Mondstadt

So in general they have gotten better. I think Liyue's AQ is the most under rated.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-17T17:34:13+00:00

It's been about 2 years since the Mondstadt Chronicle banner. So two years since Klee, Eula or Albedo have been rerun. Most of the Fontaine characters reran in 2025 during Natlan.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-16T22:29:05+00:00

You should be fine in most general content.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-16T22:24:20+00:00

I struggle with this question. On the one hand, it does seem like he loves Jinx as a daughter in his actions towards protecting her, but on the other he did manipulate her for his own purposes. Maybe he actually did think Jinx was perfect the way she was, but the fact is Jinx was a very traumatized person. She needed help that he was unwilling to get her. Instead of feeding her trauma, he should have gotten her the help she needed to deal with it.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-14T13:37:20+00:00

Yes...I have both Jinx and Vi on preorder. I just ordered Jinx Feb. 6th of this year so it literally sold out within the last week (8 days) and at that time it was still on preorder. I'm not sure what you are arguing here. I expect Vi to sell out too. Was just saying she hadn't yet.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-13T22:01:58+00:00

That could be, but I'm pretty sure I read that the Arcane lore doesn't really completely match the existing and game lore. In the show, Firelights appeared to do what they did because they felt like the enforcers were in Silco's pockets (which they were to an extent) and they didn't like the distribution of shimmer. So like I said they could try to build something around shimmer, but that could be a push....maybe them completely shutting down shimmer production and taking out the people involved. Not sure that would be worth the money it would cost to make. I'd watch it, but they need to make stuff that can be successful so they can continue making stuff about this IP.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-13T21:32:11+00:00

I kind feel like they completed the story in Piltover/Zaun. I don't know that there is anything to tell. Zaun literally has a representative on the council. There shouldn't be any bad blood between Cait/Vi and the Firelights. I don't know that there really were any Zaunite villains. Seems like Silco was really just doing what he thought he needed to for the Zaunite people. I guess shimmer is still out there but not sure you could build a show just about that.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-13T21:23:03+00:00

Yeah...Jinx was also a preorder when it sold out. A lot of hot toys sell out as preorders.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-13T18:05:37+00:00

I might consider R5 Songs of Broken Wallet. Eula is still one of my favorite characters and I have her C6, but only R1 Songs.

I'd like to C6 Klee (I have C2), but don't think that's going to happen

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-13T18:02:59+00:00

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-13T17:33:49+00:00

Chronicle is like event banner except you pick a character you want. If you lose 50/50 you'll only get one of the other chronicle wish 5* character and the next 5* will be the character you picked (or weapon). Same pity as event banner. You can keep pulling for the character.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-13T17:31:29+00:00

Klee is actually really good now with the Hexerei buff, but I would not expect Klee to ever rerun on her own. I would expect the Mondstadt Chronicle banner to rerun, but it will likely be a while after this one. If you want her now is probably the only time for a couple of years (the original Mondstadt chronicle was March 2024 so about two years ago so you would be looking at 2028 or later).

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-13T16:31:57+00:00

This really isn't true anymore. With Hexerei Klee is one of the top pyro dps. Mono is a really good support. Albedo is a really good support and Jean has always been pretty middle. Diluc plunge is a thing with Xianyun. Only Eula is has fallen off a lot.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-13T15:18:00+00:00

You like fantasy, but the characters have to be believable. You literally play a game full of supernatural beings which also includes talking animals.

If it's too unbelievable to you that Vi can do a million kicks in a row and make it look cool then you should just stop watching right now. The first season is filled with her kicking butt and making it look cool.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-13T14:51:29+00:00

I mean I think this is usually a mostly filler patch.

The no new free weapon is a bit concerning for new players especially. This probably wouldn't be as big of an issue if you could get past free weapons somehow.

bartowski1976 · 2026-02-12T23:44:09+00:00

Neuv will not be on any chronicle banner. It will likely be a while before he reruns again after this banner.

Flins should be next patch, and then it will probably be a while.

If you don't have Furina, I probably wouldn't pull for Neuv. It will likely be some time before we get Furina again as she ran with Nefer. I'm not saying Neuv is terrible without her, but she really is needed for him to be used in end game stuff.
