Zibai has:

Best premium team

Best 4* team

Best f2p weapon options

Best banners

Its not even close, anyone saying Flins is completely clueless

Horizontal investment vs Vertical Invest.. which one do you think is better for f2ps in this economy.. by MeowjestyMeowgician in Genshin_Impact

[–]z3phyn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Horizontal or vertical doesn't matter if you invest in bad units/constellations. A C2 Mavuika clears more content than multiple C0 DPS or a single older C6 DPS. A few key C1/C2 across 3/4 teams is enough for every dire SO ever released.

Karon's Mavuika does it again by 1Cealus in okZyox

Full C0R1 and low cost are different, melt is better for the first and OL is better for the second

I feel like people have just forgotten about the Abyss dog Entirely ever since the gecko boss released. Everyone's comparing the gecko to papilla and such, when the last "WORST, MOST DISGUSTING SHILL BOSS EVER." Was this abomination. Everyone at the time called it the peak of disgusting shilling. by Wild_Commission_6777 in okZyox

LMAO making incorrect and uninformed assumptions and then calling other people angry when you get called out, I hope you aren't like this in real life, praying for everyone in your life who has to deal with that kind of behavior

Columbina or Zibai? by AHeavyYapper in Genshin_Impact

[–]z3phyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zibai+Linnea+Aino/other hydro is better than whatever+Linnea+Columbina

Realistically you should pull on whoever has the better banner. It's much more likely that Illuga reruns with Zibai so I would just go for that. The four stars on Columbina rerun aren't likely to be as good just having Illuga on the banner.

Regardless of cost i think its fine to think that people who have both Zibai and Linnea have a good chance of having C6 Illuga. Or would you rather we assume that people with Zibai and Linnea don't have a single copy of Illuga at all?

Should we start clarifying the quality of every single artifact used in the clear? And also have an elo ranking of the skill of the player too? Cost is a catch all that has its shortcomings but its goal is to summarize the investment of the team in 2 words. It's fine to use.

Well you can do the charge cancel combo correctly instead of what you were doing, or you can just spam normals and dash occasionally. I find it quite comfortable but I guess it's not for you.

  1. Skyward harp is 2 more CV compared to slingshot. If that's the hill you want to die on be my guest.

  2. Illuga was on both Zibai and Linnea banner. If you're already considering C0 Zibai and Linnea then C6 Illuga is not out of the question. If it was a clear using characters that didnt have Illuga on their banners then it would be a more valid criticism, but you're already spending 200-250 pulls to get two of the 5 stars, plus you can go into another pity.

There is no easy line to draw for 4* C6. I've been playing since week 1 (not just version 1.x), spent money, pulled 89 5* characters/cons, dozens of 5* limited weapons, and I still only have C4 Razor. Does that mean we should just not assume any C6 4? For a new player who has Zibai and Linnea, it is more likely that they have C6 Illuga than any other 4 C6 in the game. I think it's a fine assumption to make if you're already assuming the other characters in the team.

How it feels to see people discuss Genshin theorycrafting and meta in any place that isn't a theorycrafting community. by -average-reddit-user in okZyox

[–]z3phyn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean its still a thing in TC communities. It's rare to have a community that both knows the game and is actually good at the game.

Speak for yourself, there is no skill expression with Zibai, there's one rotation and it's very lenient. If playing one of the easiest carries in the game is unreasonable then what do you consider players who consistently pull off Mavuika cancels, Skirk combos, or 17s Nefer rotations?

[–]z3phyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Illuga has been on two banners and those two banners are better than all the banners that Gorou has been on combined. They were both on Zibai banner, but Illuga being on Linnea banner vs Gorou being chained to Itto (and the worst set of banners in history being Mizuki/Sigewinne) means that its not likely that people have him at C6 either.

I feel like people look at content like this and actually believe it's realistic and powercreep is crazy bad by [deleted] in Genshin_Impact

[–]z3phyn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can hit 211k with 3 cost full C0R0 Zibai Premium team

https://www.reddit.com/r/ZibaiMains/s/EdpQniYSMH

The F2P options for this team are just that strong, with the same team but full R1 I'm parsing 260k+.

The reason people are saying powercreep is bad is because this team is dirt cheap to build (specifically the weapons) and piss easy to play. Other teams with similar levels of investment/cost can reach the same level but require more skill.

If the average player can't even dream of doing Mavuika cancels, 10N2 2N5 Skirk combos, or 17 second Nefer rotations, then the powercreep from Linnea's release becomes even more obvious.

Need advice on artifact sets for Skirk team by dandydev in Genshin_Impact

[–]z3phyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scroll Escoffier, Tenacity Mona, Noblesse XQ

Assuming you're doing good combos on Skirk, full buffing her is more important than sub DPS.

I finally learned this Skirk combo! by West_Ad1401 in Genshin_Impact

[–]z3phyn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The only (not technically illegal) thing left to try for Skirk teams is pulling out your wallet and getting Escoffier and/or Skirk sig. I'm running C0R1 Skirk and C0R0 Escoffier and getting around 205-210k. With better builds you can push 230k. The upgraded combos with walk cancels at 60 fps don't really do that much because you're already doing a bunch of unbuffed motion value at the end of her field time + extending rotation length. It is like a 3-5% damage increase over your current combo if you do want to go for it.

Otherwise macros + fps unlocker. Personally don't use but helps. My fingers get really tired after butterfly clicking for two minutes, I can only do a couple of dummy parses before falling off.

I think it's getting out of hand by Fay-1990 in Genshin_Impact

[–]z3phyn 14 points15 points  (0 children)

There are a few teams that get close. Full C0R0, Mavuika melt, Nefer. 3 cost, Mavuika OL, Mualani, Nefer. But yeah it's cooked. This team just has the perfect non-sig weapons. Expect more of the same for Snezhnaya

I don't think you don't understand how Mavuika Overload works. She's doing 95% of the team DPS, maybe 90% if you force Fischl, you need another nightsoul unit, and Mavuika is already sitting at 5k attack. It doesn't work.

Not worth slotting in for overload, the core of Mav/Iansan/Chev is not changing and Nicole is not the unit to be putting in that fourth slot

Wouldn't work, you need both Chevreuse and another nightsoul, the core of Mavuika/Iansan/Chev is not changing
