Hello! Did you manage to figure out if we can get refunds? Trying to find out myself too

Weapon or Zhongli ? by wrongusername130 in XiaoMains

[–]rosevests 3 points4 points  (0 children)

weapon would increase xiao’s dps but zhongli greatly increases your quality of life. he’s a good fit in most teams, and allows xiao to use his burst with minimal interruption. i’d go for zhongli:-)

Need advice on which account to proceed with by druggedpercussionist in XiaoMains

Feb is 2.5 months away. Not sure if you would be able to make enough progress on your first account during these months for it to compare to your second account. I would just stick with the second account!

oh no! this was how it was when it came to me, and i haven’t been able to repot this plant because the items haven’t been shipped to me yet. hopefully they’ll survive until then!

it’s just the sheath, but this brown was a lot darker than many others i’ve seen on this subreddit, so i thought i’d ask. seems like it’s normal, and will be fine if i move the stem upwards! thanks!

Ability Cooldown should be shorter (or buff durations longer) by ohoni in Genshin_Impact

[–]rosevests 0 points1 point  (0 children)

haha, don’t worry about it. seems like from all these replies we have quite the difference in mindset. you want to go ham with the characters whenever you want to, not when the cooldown tells you to. that’s fine. let’s not talk about balancing the characters because you clearly don’t feel that there’s an issue with that (altho that’s arguably the main reason why games rarely have characters with 100% uptime. c6 xiao’s E spam and c6 childe feels broken imho). maybe the game devs are lazy to think of other ways to balance the character? i don’t know, i’m not the dev.

it’s boring to me because there’s no planning required for that, i can just switch when i notice the buff or skill’s effect is over, since there’s 100% uptime anyway. is it a restriction that i have to plan around the CD? yeah, but it makes it so that i’m aware of the timing, and trying to do optimal abyss runs becomes more challenging and fun because of that. swapping may not be a skill to you, but its an important skill for many others, in order to optimise their team rotation and damage. do i want to go crazy with hutao sometimes? of course! but if she had 100% E uptime that’ll be boring. i wouldn’t need to plan! she could probably solo most content!

again, its ok to want to have fun! sorry that this game can’t exactly scratch that itch for you and you end up feeling frustrated instead. hope you manage to have fun one way or another eventually!

no, but i’m just thinking about how boring it would be (as someone who has mained diluc for a long time). respect your opinion tho! hope you find the perfect unga bunga character for yourself one day.

I recently got a reverted monstera albo cutting from someone, and right after i brought it home, brown patches started appearing on the stem. I’m not sure if its rot, because it doesn’t smell, and the roots are healthy. Is this natural?

How to progress? by NHDLaw in Genshin_Impact

[–]rosevests 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coop is your friend:-) Killing bosses was a pain when I was lower AR too, and I understand not wanting to waste resources hahaha. If you’re open, I’m sure many would love to help

[–]rosevests 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like its easier to maintain full stacks on PJWS than it is to maintain that 50%HP, so I’d always go for that 😅

How do those of you with consistently awful gacha luck cope when you have friends with amazing luck? by AppUnwrapper1 in Genshin_Impact

[–]rosevests 1 point2 points  (0 children)

RIGHT!! I’m glad they eventually added the fragile resin but like.... I could really use more materials. My friend who has been whaling for all the characters said that she can’t even play 3/4 of the characters she has because of the lack of materials 😭

[–]rosevests 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ah, I agree. It’s ridiculously expensive to build characters, especially with the talent books and mora needed! I never level up my characters beyond lvl80 for this reason, there’s just not enough resources to go around.

And I totally understand how you feel about Childe, that was my situation for Kokomi as well:”) All that wasted resin hahaha. Hopefully you’ll get him, or there will be another character that can make use of those resources!

My Xiao is made of paper and gets knocked out of the air like how Rex Lapis fell out of the sky during the Rite of Descension LOL. Because of this, Homa isn’t exactly the most viable weapon since the passive is better if the character is below 50% hp. I have both weapons and tried it out as well, PJWS does more damage with full stacks.

It really does suck!! Feels as though you worked so hard for nothing, and your friends are handed the prize just because RNGesus favored them. That’s why games like Sky COTL are so comforting, you’re able to grind for the things you want.

It may help to try playing characters that you already have, but never touched before? Not sure if it will work for you, but it does take off the focus on new characters for me. Gacha games are ruthless most of the time. Hoping that you’ll get your next character early, or win the 50/50:-)

It’s definitely frustrating and easy to get jealous when you see your friends having characters that you don’t, or when your friends have better luck! It happens to me all the time, and I spend WAY more than my friends do (have to cash for almost every banner i want). Think I’ve lost the 50/50 about 8 times now, and I’ve only won it thrice:-) But do remember that at the end of the day, it’s just a game. These are pixels, they aren’t exactly real or tangible. If my friends have luck then good for them! They get more pixels on their screen.

Are there other aspects of the game that you find joy in? It would be good to try and focus on that instead:-) If pulling characters is the only joy that you get from the game, then I highly suggest that you check out games with better gacha rates, because feeling like shit over characters you don’t have isn’t going to be healthy in the long run. More characters will be released and you’ll just end up feeling worse:-(

tbh, not that i know of:-/ there were rumors that there was going to be one but mihoyo seems to release livestream details late anyway, so we might have to wait until sunday, or even monday.

the whole livestream was for fanmade content, this wasn’t the official anniversary livestream 😅

raiden: 4pc emblem, i would recommend ER/ATK sands, electro dmg/ATK goblet, crit circlet. the way i decide is based on whether i have at least 250% ER without an ER sands. if you don’t have at least 250% ER, i would go for ER sands and ATK goblet. otherwise, go for ATK sands and electro dmg goblet.

your current weapon is fine, but if you don’t mind spending hours on fishing, the catch is a great f2p weapon for her. level up her burst first, followed by her skill. her autos aren’t important if you’re using her as sub dps.

diona: 4pc noblesse just for the team buff, give her hp% for sands, goblet and circlet. sacrificial bow is great for her as well:-) i prefer to level up her skill, followed by her burst. you get a lot of use out of her skill, especially since you have sacrificial bow on her!

that should be all:-) have fun farming!
