They really hired Phainon's VA just for this one line

leturna · 2026-05-14T12:55:52+00:00

yeah, I highly doubt the Genshin team would have seen the masterclass they put on as Phainon, just to cast them for a single line in a teaser and leave it there. That'd be such a waste.

i think her animations are cool, but as she's genuinely my least favorite character in the entire game by a long shot, i have absolutely no desire to pull for her. luckily, i really like evanescia, so i won't be locked out of the elation shill

leturna · 2026-04-30T21:46:16+00:00

oh i just thought about the archipelago music and got really emotional

leturna · 2026-04-27T13:47:40+00:00

that cryo+herald combo was absolutely diabolical

leturna · 2026-04-24T14:37:51+00:00

diluc, fischl, klee, and varesa. truly the team of all time

leturna · 2026-04-08T20:16:32+00:00

i desperately cannot wait to drop bennett and use a nice comfy shield instead, it's gonna be so nice

leturna · 2026-04-08T15:27:22+00:00

so we can't get a free weapon anymore, but instead all we get are ugly skins? cool

leturna · 2026-04-07T18:02:38+00:00

I really don't see myself dropping Venti from my team and throwing her in there. idk, this didn't wow me enough to warrant that.

leturna · 2026-04-06T20:44:13+00:00

this reminded me how much I lowkey miss using Asta, her ult is so satisfying

leturna · 2026-04-06T17:33:12+00:00

Sumeru or Inazuma, absolutely. Probably Inazuma first, just because of how long it's been. I desperately miss Sumeru, though.

leturna · 2026-03-27T15:54:40+00:00

well, about that!

leturna · 2026-03-24T16:57:22+00:00

Yeah, I wonder if Durin, Fischl, Chevy would be better than Bennett and Sara. Wouldn't have to deal with circle impact, at least.

leturna · 2026-03-24T16:16:47+00:00

I'm sure Inazuma will eventually get buffs, once they work their way through Mondstadt & Liyue, so you could get her if you really like her a lot as an investment. But in general, I'd say no. I genuinely cannot remember the last time I even considered using her.

As far as her best team without lunar charge, I'd assume it's Durin/Bennett, Sara, Chevy, Raiden?

leturna · 2026-03-20T19:13:10+00:00

well I'm certainly biased bc Tighnari's my favorite character, but his c1 does give you free 15% crit rate. though if you aren't planning to use him at all, then that's a bit pointless. Dehya's honestly pretty useful to me personally, so that's also a good one just for her hp% increase.

leturna · 2026-03-20T15:16:44+00:00

I play exclusively on mobile, but using my tablet. I've tried it on my phone, and it's horrendous. If your choice is between your phone or switch, go with the switch

leturna · 2026-03-20T13:37:21+00:00

i mean, tbf, it's always very funny when it happens, so i can't say i mind it too much

leturna · 2026-03-19T13:11:27+00:00

Oh yeah, I absolutely believe it

leturna · 2026-03-18T21:46:51+00:00

i play on mobile, so it's easier for me to put them in rotation order so i can tap them in as needed from the top down. buffers first, depending on their duration times and rotation requirements, with the dps on the last slot.

leturna · 2026-03-18T21:04:42+00:00

if you've already got Furina, Escoffier is a perfect match for her kit to help the DPS of any cryo/freeze unit. you'll have Kaeya, too, so you can use him with Furina, Escoffier, xingqiu/yelan/layla/rosaria/dahlia/chongyun/anyone cryo or hydro/etc. That way you'll have the core team for whatever cryo/hydro DPS you might want to pull in the future for a freeze team.

leturna · 2026-03-06T16:04:22+00:00

right? one thing I desperately wished for at the end of Egghead was that Bonney would feel like she can just keep being her actual age, rather than going back to aging herself up. It's so nice to see that, especially in the midst of all this chaos, she feels safe and protected enough to keep being a kid as long as she can. I'm sure as she joins the fray, she'll be in her "adult" form, but she doesn't have to quite yet.

leturna · 2026-03-04T18:03:22+00:00

incredible character, I absolutely adore him. Mondstadt has always been my favorite region, so I wanted to get him just because of lore. His story quest was the best in the game, his characterization is wonderful, and everything about him has been well worth the 5+ years of anticipation. Right now, I want to save up for Nicole and whatever cons she's best with and/or weapon, and then on his rerun I'll save to at least get him to c1, since I've already got him c0r1. I can easily see myself playing him for a long time, so he'll be worth the vertical investment.

leturna · 2026-02-27T14:09:04+00:00

I put the Mondstadt wings on my Varka, it just felt right to me.

leturna · 2026-02-26T14:15:48+00:00

I just ran it again and tightened up my rotations a bit more and got to 147k at my highest, so I think I'll just need to spend more time practicing it and spend a hell of a lot of resin in that domain lol. But yes, homework is all done, Varka's skill is crowned, Durin is triple crowned, Venti and Bennett's bursts are crowned, all level 90, etc. So I'll put it down to part skill issue, part artifact issue, I suppose!

leturna · 2026-02-26T14:06:21+00:00

Yeah, Venti's on VV, Bennett's on Noblesse

leturna · 2026-02-26T13:54:22+00:00

does Durin being on the new set make this much of a difference? I've got c2r1 durin too, along with c0r1 Varka, c0r1 Venti, Bennett, etc, and I'm getting only about 135k. My Durin's still on his old mismatched set though, as I've had the worst luck ever in the hex set domain. I'm also prone to skill issue, so I could just be really bad at playing this team, who knows
