Nobody cares.
If only, huh. MHY comes up with decent stuff, but then they drop the ball with the execution. "We've got a girl who's carrying a curse inside of her, she summons spirits and she needs to suppress her emotions with some magic rope. I know, let's make her a support!"
Yep, she doesn't even feel good to play despite her numbers also not being great. Really bummed out about her. I guess Ayaka mains are happy with their buffs, but eh. This is the one time I agree with you that she should have been a hypercarry character.
Sad.
She's hilarious, way cooler than Hu Tao and her fake edge. She's a Xiao like edgelord, but clueless. Absolute beast lol
Her being an off screen support makes 0 sense. Literally a killing machine built for... support?
She should be a fem Xiao, main DD. Selfish DD too, as she pretty much could always count only on herself.
I use spoilers when it's story related stuff or surprises, but I quit using them when it's just stats/weapons/character info. Nobody in this thread is that much of a spoiler whiner to get extreme about it, so it's been a good rule of thumb.
My surprise was that on paper before release, she looked like she was just a straight upgrade to Rosaria in every way, but she's worse in every way except specifically cryo buffing, on top of being less fun to actively play. They really did a disservice in relation to lore to her kit, more than with most characters. Also, long cooldowns = less fun. They should really get that through their heads.
Yeah, that makes sense. I think I'll do that from now on as well.
I guess they were really desperate to buff Albedo then, huh? Maybe they'll give Shenhe an event spear and artifacts set in half a year too!
I was hoping to find out what that talisman spirit actually is in her quest. I saw some fan art where it seemed to have a personality. I thought that was a pretty neat idea, somewhat similar to Fischl's Oz. Instead it's ignored entirely, despite being one of the coolest things about her.
I thought it was weird that the trailer brought up the fact that she's Chongus' uncle, and it's easy to see that since he's pure "yang" energy (demons and spirits avoid him), she's likely pure "yin", since she attracts demons and trouble. Then they just ignored the fuck out of it. But yea, I thought her icy double was going to be a character or at least a "pet" type thing, but nope. The quest was still good but just not what I expected.
Not kewl man
Um... a pet spirit of her, eh? I like where it's going...
Please no, I hate Baizhu. I die inside a bit every time he shows up in the game.
Do they know what a 5 star is?I ain't watchin that shit. Going in blind. Bet it's cool though.
Also.... bad news Yae brethren.
Bad news, she doesn't beat Fischl by nearly any metric other than Burst splash damage. No snapshot is such a headscratcher. For a mechanic that was in the game since launch, it's confusing why they stopped using it since like halfway through Liyue.
Starting to wonder that myself. Pretty much every 5* since Shogun has been disappointing in one way or another. They seem overly cautious of balance in a game with literally zero PVP and only one endgame mode.

mentioned you have people with no artifacts, no talents leveled, just doing their own thing. So character balance literally means nothing to them. They probably don't even know that Kokomi has negative crit rate, or that shogun scales off of ER. So why cater to the most extreme of the hardcore that would cry if a new DPS was even mildly more powerful than a launch unit?
With them having the character data, they might have noticed they can just phone it in unless it's an Archon. Otherwise it feels weird where they don't have an understanding of their own games balance and mechanics and we end up with awful characters like Shenhe which becomes an unfortunate gap between the story.Starting to wonder that myself.

I always think about it this way too - we're probably the outliers to this stuff. The people that look at numbers and kits and how to squeeze the most out of character. As
I've played gachas that have had off the charts level of powercreep (Fire Emblem Heroes), and I've played games that take a lot of consideration to balance (Epic 7), and I can tell you that neither of those two extremes are fun. They should just make characters that are fun to play and not try to pigeon hole them into specific setups like they've been doing for all of Inazuma. Let the people have some god damn fun. I don't want to run a triple Electro team just to get the most out of Yae.
It's not even individual character strength that bothers me so much since I mostly ignore meta anyways, it's the fact that the characters are getting so specific in their uses. Part of the fun for me originally was building weird teams that focus on different things or that work in nearly any scenario. Now with characters like Shenhe and Sara and Gorou, you can't even just plop them into a team and see what they can do, because they each have one specific purpose.
Yeah I'm of the same thing. Maybe I don't have a say since I largely ignore Abyss, but having general characters that can screw around with and bring out some neat reactions seemed like the entire point of the core gameplay, but it's just drifted away from that with specialization after specialization and questionable moves such as 12 second cooldown skills or negative crits, which later need new artifact sets.
Yea this kind of thing needs to fuck right off. Why shouldn't we be able to build crit Kokomi? Just such a random limitation, and their banner apparently suffered for it. I'm curious to see what the Shenhe banner does. I don't think I've heard a single person rolling for Xiao, so there's a good chance it could be another bomba with Ganyu/Zhongli lying in wait.
Itto bombed hard in Japan, but Shenhe is tracking pretty good so far. Let's see if her run has any legs and whether Ganyu/Zhongli surpass it.Yea this kind of thing needs to fuck right off.

This news makes me happy.
Also, here's some actual proof(?) of the CN feminists that are fucking around with Genshin.

She was my first C6
4 banners in total including Venti's 1.0, yeahShe was my first C6
Fischl constellations is a good test of when you started to play GI. She was on the first Venti banner, plus you got her for free during the 1.1 meteor event. I think she was also on Albedo's first banner and Childe's spring rerun, but she's been pretty limited since then.
Potions thingie. Abyss-like crap.
I've been playing since the first week and she's only at C1. LikeShe was my first C6

I got her initially from the event. They just kept putting her on shitty banners. The last time she was on, was for Klee's rerun too. Hardly a popular banner.

Yea she was my first C6 as well. When I was doing my rerolling accounts for 5*s, I had her at C1 before even "starting" the game. She definitely got me through a lot of mid-game content paired with my Tart. I still go back and do the "taser" team now and again with Tart/Fischl/Beidou/Jean. It's good fun in the right situations and there are SFX fucking everywhere at all times.She was my first C6

I don't remember which constellation it is, but one of them gives her HP back after she uses her Burst, so it becomes a non-issue. The whole point of her Burst is just to keep Oz on the field at all times anyways.
and lisa has stronger auto attacks, bruh.Yea she was my first C6 as well. When I was doing my rerolling accounts for 5*s, I had her at C1 before even "starting" the game.

*edit*
So it looks like they want you to use her off field like the last 20 Electro characters....
Why are they so afraid of an electro main DPS that isn't Lisa or Keq?
It was rumored, but then people liked Shogun enough so they apparently just said "eh, good enough". They slightly buffed Electro reactions in 2.0 (I think it was).
She should be out for all players by this point regardless of platform. You have to get your AR (adventurer rank) 20 for her to appear in your mail though.

HOLY FUCK DID YOU SAY LIYUE??!??!
I've been playing since the first week and she's only at C1. Like
This was also my experience. She was fixture for on several of my teams from launch through Feb 2021. I still like her kit, especially at C6, but sometimes you just get tired of using the same characters.
I'm on PC, I stopped playing the game from Aug through the launch of v2.3 (November 24), I did not have any in-game mail for Aloy. Apparently the mail disappears and she stopped being available after v2.2.
same here, i stopped around july, i don't have any email either. i feel rewarded, i don't want that ugly thing.
CNY is Feb 1, so around then?
Gotta deal with filler events till then great
We got Enka, I ain't complaining until I 100% it.
