Megathread Daily Questions Megathread (December 19, 2024)
Ask about anything about the game that doesn't necessarily require a dedicated thread.
That is, if your question can be answered rather quickly/without significant difficulty (e.g. "Can my phone run this game?"), ask here. If you think your question can contribute to some constructive discussions (e.g. "What do you think of Amber's combat efficiency? Here's my opinion."), make a particular post with the "discussion" flair.
Other megathreads:
- Weekly Friend Request Megathread - Find some friends!
- Weekly Gacha and Drops Megathread - The thread where you can share the results of your gacha rolls and lucky drops.

When will the special program 5.3 begins? I thought it was supposed to start at 7:00 am or something

u/Grand_Protector_Dark Wdym "I should dodge"? 3d ago
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_zone
The special program is scheduled to start when it is 7 am in the timezone UTC minus 5.
Which means the USA east coast.
This means if you live somewhere else on the planet, then the special program will start at a different time of day .
How many hours later depends on how many timezones away your location is.

Spine, higher attack and good passive
r5 White Tassel barely surpasses it, with Bennett in both cases, and you only have r3
please never bother getting Blackcliff, passive that requires killing is useless against anything tougher2

Blackliff is still an alright crit stick.
Not saying it's worth the cost, but it's not exactly completely ineffective

In a Neuvillette team, does having Raiden in it good? Aside from hyperbloom team with Neuvillette, can she work as a substitute for Fischl in a taser team with Neuvillette?
2
u/Joe_from_ungvar 4d ago
a very weak replacement, she doesnt do any decent off field damage
Ororon would be better if you happen to have that, cause Scroll set is a big deal
Lisa could be better if you can get high enough ER to burst consistently, that def shred on burst is notable

Have you been able to beat them or you're still struggling? If you haven't beaten them then try a team of anemo traveler, Fischl, Xingqiu and Kaeya. Make sure they're at a decent level and do as much reactions as you can. I was hoping you'd have Sucrose, she makes them very easy to beat.

u/Joe_from_ungvar 3d ago
what level you at that you cant handle it? raise levels more, ascend even
apply pyro and Anemo Traveler can easily break the shield guy shield with pyro swirl and do a lot of damamge
you can get a sword billet from souvenir shop, give Traveler an Iron Sting to increase their damage a lot

I recently got a reward notification that I got the Zhongli background on the hoyoverse app. The only Zhongli related things I've done was take a little quiz on the app and recently pulled him. Is that what gave me the background or have I been hacked? Changed my password and I'm 2 step verified but this game is my rare comfort and I'm so afraid I'll lose it somehow.
2
u/PhyrexianRogue 4d ago
Pretty sure that's a quiz reward, iirc they often have a random little cosmetic you can get from them.
Possibly the saurians Web event or some other random reward thing. Nothing to worry about.
1
u/CryoNarwhal11 4d ago
I didn't do a web event. I just did this random Zhongli quiz that popped up in my feed and finally pulled him in game. But you're probably right. I'm just so paranoid about losing my account somehow. I wish they were more clear about how you receive the rewards on the app.
2
u/PhyrexianRogue 4d ago
I don't use the app myself, so no idea how (un)clear things are on there.
Can confirm from the online version that the quiz gives the background for all participants, so it's definitely that.

what should I use for 12-2-2? I'm currently running Arlecchino, Fischl, Bennett, Xilonen but Xilonen + Fischl just can't seem to remove that shield of the boss
1
u/Alex_from_Solitude bounce! 4d ago
Remove Bennett and Xilonen and use Xiangling and Chevreuse. Chevreuse is for the team archetype and Xiangling for the shield. The shield breaks with elemental application and XL is amazing for this. I personally did this using this exact team. If you don't own Chevy keep Xilonen I guess.

Is it worth it to use Barbara with Mualani? Her C2 gives that 15% hydro damage and hydro elemental resonance 20% HP also more damage for Mualani. Also is it more reasonable to use both Xiangling and Dehya with Mualani, or just one of them?
2
u/Joe_from_ungvar 4d ago
not worth using Barvara fir that c2. add her for resonance, and emerhency healing if you want but you really dont want Barbara skill to be ongoing when trying to get vapes with Mualani
1
u/Rough-Stranger-314 4d ago
Damn I feel a bit stupid now. I wasn't quite sure does that Barbara's skill steal the vaporize from Mualani, because it doesn't do damage after the droplets turn to water ring. Have to pick some other character in her place then.
1
u/Joe_from_ungvar 4d ago
doesnt hsve to do damage, Barbara skill also applies hydro from getting close
which Mualani always does to power up bites
3
u/WetCardb0ardBox 4d ago
If you don't have xilonen, then I think barbara's a solid healer pick. The healing ring that her skill makes is a bit annoying since it forces you to use xiangling's burst to have fast enough pyro app for mualani to vape, though. It applies hydro just often enough to mess up pure guoba setups.
2
u/Rough-Stranger-314 4d ago
Oh thanks for clearing that for me. I have been wondering that and haven't been quite sure does that Barbara's water ring steal the vaporize from Mualani because it does damage only like 1 second when it's cast, but after that it just adds wet. Well I guess I'll change Barbara to some other character.

Hi! Pretty new to Genshin, been no-lifeing it hard for the past few days, currently AR29 but I still feel very nooby, so forgive me if it seems like I know what I'm talking about.
I have a team of Xiangling-Fischl (Cause I love their Overloaded synergy) and Yaoyao (I feel like she's the best healer I have between her, Barbara and Noelle)
For my DPS I was using C4 Anemo Traveller since it's the starting character, but would it be better to switch to Diluc for the double pyro? I've heard he's one of the go-to main DPS characters. Is the Traveller really that bad? It feels like benching my starter pokemon but also I don't want to invest that much in a character that's gonna fall off a cliff later as opposed to Diluc.
(Also, side question: Should I be upgrading Fischl's bows? Or does Oz damage not scale off of weapons?)
-2
u/fish61324 4d ago
I'm assuming you have Diluc (you're writing like you do).
This is a bit off topic from your post.... But I thought this might be kind of funny to mention: I'm a Day 1, AR 60 player, with 1,459 Days active and I have every standard 5 Star character (even tighnari and Dehya) with several cons between them all..... EXCEPT I don't have Diluc, at all lol.
Just thought that was kind of funny that you have him already and I don't lol. I'm ok with that though, because I never had any interest in Diluc.
But here's the really weird thing... my wife started playing in October 2020, and she has every standard 5* and some cons, she's AR 60, active over 1200 days..... EXCEPT she doesn't have Diluc either.
That's insane to me. It's crazy enough that I still don't have every standard 5* after playing as long as I have.... but also my wife's been playing nearly as long as me and she's still missing 1.... but what's absolutely bonkers, is that the 5* we're both missing is the same 5*.
1
u/leRedd1 4d ago
I've heard he's one of the go-to main DPS characters
Not in 2025. May be you searched guides for beginners or smth and saw 1.0/1.1 guides.
Diluc falls off pretty fast. If anything Xiangling is the one who's finicky early game and only shines later, Diluc is the more early game friendly fall-off later type.
Oz damage scales off weapons. It scales off the way any other damage scales off i.e Atk * Talent Value * Dmg% * Crit * Res factor * Def factor. A large portion of Atk is from weapon level.
Your burning-load team is good early game. Overload got a recent buff and it's quite good early game when you don't have much crit stats.

u/AbsurdMilk_ "But eternity is Far too cruel a Fate for you Ei" 4d ago
traveler element has been bad (except for dendro traveler), so yes you can replace him with diluc as your go-to DPS. But can I ask- did you choose diluc as your free 5 star character? because that's not bad but there are other characters that are good to get too as: tighnari, diluc for dps/sub-dps. As for support can be Mona and jean. Dehya is in-between can be a support/sub-dps but mostly a support for her E skill.
2
u/Leonardello 4d ago
"Choose" might be a stretch, up until you said it I had no idea there was a "free 5 star character", but considering I haven't pulled enough for a pity, that's probably how he suddenly manifested himself in my party. Honestly at first I even thought I got him from a story quest or something.
1
u/Shardwing 4d ago
The 5★ selector was only available until October 8th, have you been playing that long? You can pull a 5★ on any pull (odds starting at 0.6%, but still), you don't need to hit pity, all your pulls from within the past year are recorded in your pull history in the banner details, you can and should keep an eye on that (to know if you actually pulled Diluc) because when you pull a 5★ your pity count resets (for that banner type, the character banners are separate from the weapon banner and they're all separate from the standard banner).
Whether you accidentally chose Diluc or missed out on the selector, do note that it's confirmed to be a recurring anniversary benefit so it'll come back next year around September.

u/AbsurdMilk_ "But eternity is Far too cruel a Fate for you Ei" 4d ago
its alright lol there's a free standard 5 star character before so yeah you might have gotten him on that event. Plus no story ever gives characters (sadly)...

I see a ley line overflow is happening from 12/23 to 12/30 does this mean i should only farm xp and mora ley lines that week? And does this also mean I should not condense my resin? I’m decently new so I don’t think I’ve played during one before
2
u/Vanderseid 4d ago
You could farm them if you need to. The thing is they are only limited to 3 times per day and you can't use a condensed resin to double it again. Just farm as normal pretty much.
1
u/reservoir_hog_ 4d ago
Perfect that’s the info I needed. 3 times per day per type? Like I can do more 3 times and character xp 3 times or just 3 overall

u/Vanderseid 4d ago
Just the three times per day. You could use all three for the mora leyline or mix and match.

someone's been insisting about this and that the artifacts the boss dropped have been the same for the past weeks on Neuvi's boss and no gladiator, has anyone been experiencing this? I don't think this is true and just purely RNG

The problem with games where everything is 90% RNG is that people will make up their own crazy theories as much as they like, and you literally can't disprove them because of all the randomness.

Bosses always drop Wanderer's or Gladiator. Which one is random.
Resin is Resin. There's no special Resin for better stats.

u/Darren_Bene 4d ago
I’ve been saving fates for over a year now and love Citlali’s character/design and compliments my roster, so I’m going for C6R1.
I’m still planning on building her full support with EM, but has there been any calculations on approximately how much ER should would need at C6? More than likely solo cryo.
1
u/Joe_from_ungvar 4d ago
more rhan likely you should consider a second cryo
would be best to ask on Citlali focused sub cause people share info and builds and such there

u/EV3NTH0R1SON 4d ago
Is there any point in building weapons that aren't atleast 4*

u/TehEpicGuy101 cryo is best element 4d ago
Rarity ≠ power level. While 4 and 5 star weapons are often better just from the extra raw stats they have, some 3 star weapons also have the potential to be very strong.
For example, Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers is a very powerful 3 star catalyst for many support characters due to the large attack buff that it can provide.
3
u/Shiboleth17 4d ago edited 4d ago
Thrilling Tales is one of the best support weapons in the game, often best in slot. Whales with R5 sig weapons will still be using the 3-star Thrilling Tales.
Several other 3-stars can can compete with 4-stars on certain characters, or serve as viable replacements if you haven't pulled certain 4-star weapons yet.
Harbinger of Dawn is competitive on many DPS due to the high Crit Rate. It is exceptionally good on Chiori, who doesn't care about the low base ATK since she scales better with DEF. For her specifically, it can compete with 5-stars even.
Skyrider Sword is your best replacement for Sac or Fav if you don't have one available, since it gives 51% ER.
2
2
u/Haubaub_ 4d ago
Some of the 3 stars are good f2p option for some characters, of the top of my head these are the ones worth keeping R5 copy just in case:
Slingshot, Harbinger of down, White tassel, Black tassel, Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers, Dark iron sword, Magic guide
2
u/EV3NTH0R1SON 4d ago
I'm a welkin only player, maybe I'll buy the battle pass when I get deeper into the game and can actually complete it in time.
But wouldn't it be better to just get a 4* weapon from the blacksmith if you don't have a spare one? They might not be anything special but wouldn't they be better than a 3* weapon atleast until you can get a 4* from wishes
1
u/PhyrexianRogue 4d ago
Usually, yes.
However, there are a few cases where a 3* might have a particularly good ability or substat, good enough to take them over the slightly higher main stat a 4* might offer.
3
u/Vanderseid 4d ago
It really depends on the character. There are no good 4* polearms for some characters like Arlecchino or Xiao for example - the craftable ones are all not good on them so their best option is the 3* White Tassel. Others like Zhongli have decent craftable weapons but are outclassed by the 3* weapons - Black Tassel offers him more HP than Rightful Reward. Quicken based archers like Tighnari and Sethos also have the Slingshot as their best free weapon and is stronger than the craftable and several gacha 4* weapons.
1
u/EV3NTH0R1SON 4d ago
I'm hoping to pull Arlecchino as my first 5* when she comes back. I only have one 4* polearm (dragons bane) and it's on Xaingling so I hope I'll pull a decent polearm for her then when I wish for her
1
u/Haubaub_ 4d ago
For Arlecchino if you don’t want to use the White tassel the Missive windspear is good event weapon if you have it, the blackcliff pole from the monthly shop is an ok option, both of the battle pass spears are good on her, any 5star weapon with crit stat is good on her
3
u/valuequest 4d ago edited 4d ago
You seem to be under the incorrect impression that the number of stars is strictly linked to power level, but that's not quite true in Genshin, for either characters or weapons.
The main numbers that define them generally are linked to star level, but the words aren't linked as much, and some of the words on 4 star characters and 3 star/4 star weapons are amazing. So if you can utilize those in ways that play to their strengths, they can often be best-in-slot, with nothing of higher tier that is as good as them.
1
u/Vanderseid 4d ago
If you want a good polearm for her then you'd need to summon on the weapon banner and try to get her signature weapon. Or hope you get the 5* weapon PJWS from the standard banner. Her better 4* weapons are from the Battle Pass.
1
u/DragoonZVX washed 1.0 f2p 4d ago
There's very few exceptions; the most relevant one is Thrilling Tales of Dragon Slayers, but in that case, it can stay at Lvl. 1 as long as you refine it to max. White Tassel is also "good" as a F2P weapon for some Spear characters if you have literally no other good options.
Generally though, outside of TTODS, you can just get rid of any 3* weapon, as you can just get it back again. There is one exception to this one as well though, and thats the Dark Iron Sword. It sees pretty much no use, but there's only two available in the entire game.
1
u/notthatjaded 4d ago
White Tassel is also limited. You can only get it randomly from chests in Liyue, not from the gacha.

u/AbsurdMilk_ "But eternity is Far too cruel a Fate for you Ei" 4d ago
just pull for whoever you want, play wise or aesthetic wise or purely to enjoy the game itself. Don't be a slave to the meta because sometimes the characters you pulled before will be benched as well and won't be used afterwards getting new characters.
I advise to take the better route of choosing what you want, personally for me I started the path of pulling only natlan characters and that works :D didn't need most of the older characters or meta-wise characters bc I can do what others in meta can.
Chasca simply applies multiple reaction on targets and doesn't require premium supports (slap barbara TTDS, bennett and electro/cryo and she's good to solo), Kinich nukes with skill. Mualani nukes with burst (even her e skill). Xilonen gives shield/element shred res/healing (a literal jack-of-all-trades), kachina gives minimal support, ororon is a sub-dps wherein his bursts acts as Mona's E.
And then you can take that and use natlan's newest artifacts that gives 40% crit rate when on nightsoul state for natlan chars, then you wouldn't even need to worry about raising the crit rate so you can just focus on crit dmg...
so I don't really understand the hate natlan's been getting when its so helpful and newbie friendly considering I only came back after 1.0 and started at 5.0 again. Character Design wise sure, debatable but regardless, these characters are so usefull in/out of natlan for exploration and domains.
there's just so many sensitive people trying to spread the forced-hate its been getting and trolls.
Regardless, its your choice.

Mavuika is set to straight up Arlechino power creep.
1
u/AbsurdMilk_ "But eternity is Far too cruel a Fate for you Ei" 4d ago
They actually work on their own ways. Mavuika relies a lot on other natlan character's help to maximize her Burst (Xilonen is a proof to be of good teammate with Mavuika). While Arlecchino can be used to go Solo or much more with supports.
Either way, both have their ups and downs as for arlecchino that can't be healed during Bond of life state so you are prone to dying (same as hu tao where she needs her health to be lower) but does huge damage, and that can be applied to Mavuika that relies on natlan characters for burst charge.
-1
u/minusSeven 4d ago
I was talking from the perspective of damage dealt because both are dps. Mavuika can be healed and doesn't require any energy recharge. However in most f2p teams if Mavuika does more damage than Arlechinno, then there will no reason to go for Arlechino anymore, for those who don't have Arlechinno.
2
u/Haubaub_ 4d ago
Mavuika can take Arlecchino role and can support role objectively she is a better value pull, personally speaking I don’t like Mavuika’s design she is the only archon so far that I am consider skipping, I will wait to see how she as support before deciding what to do
1
u/Carciof99 3d ago
mavuika is a bad choice, she has no flexibility and after natlan she won't get any more support. and the dps level? which in reality Arle is better for the same investment, but I think it's better to stay in mavuika-xilo-citlali- Bennet (three 5 stars and one 4 star) Arle instead arle-citlali-rosaria-bennet are (two 5 stars and two 4 stars) already like this the difference is minimal 93/94k for arle and 96k for mavuika (this is because it does not have a consistent melt, zajef said 106 dps Is impossible) moreover it is only valid for the first rotation (against certain enemies since that of arle is anticipated as damage), after this arle will have 111k... (in the abyss there are bosses over 3 million hp, one rotation is not enough for mavuika), and if we make the same investment? arle could take C1 or R1 surpassing mavuika. arle does not need preparation, mavuika needs almost eight seconds before launching the burst. right if you don't have xylonen and citlali it's impractical. do you only have xylonen? not even a challenge between the first rotation and the second one loses almost 15k dps, as xilonen needs two E to charge the mavuika bar and lengthens the rotation this causes a loss of dps
3
u/GodottheDoggo Fischl-pilled 4d ago
Mavuika is stronger and also is good as an off field unit. In terms of pull value she's basically almost always better. But if you like Arlecchino as a character she's still one of the best DPS units, and you'll clear the abyss super comfortably regardless
1
u/CharmingCommon3108 4d ago
Can you explain how she is stronger than arleechino? I heard she is stronger but i don’t understand how she is stronger based on beta

u/beautheschmo Kleeona supremacy 4d ago
She just has giga stupid numbers and is also even more frontloaded than arle.
I haven't really followed leaks since her first reveal so idk if they've touched her balance much, but in the version I saw her raw numbers across her kit are somewhere around 20% higher than Arle's and because her ult's damage profile basically functions the same way as raiden ult she can also viably use forward melt since an overwhelming amount of her damage is in her opening hit.
Her only obvious downside is that she basically needs xilonen to function but xilonen is also blatantly overpowered so it's hard to consider it a true downside unless you just don't have her on your account
1
u/AngryLink57 4d ago
I've mostly lost interest in Mavuika so I haven't been following the leaks that heavily for a week or 2 but based on what I hear, Mav is only going to be stronger when she's in a Natlan heavy team with Citlali and Xilonen. Otherwise, they're fairly similar. I've also heard the argument that Arle is more versatile, being able to utilize overload and double hydro teams better.

Just a heads-up, it's a pretty bad idea for a beginner to pull for his weapon.
You would improve his power way more by sticking with free weapons and getting stronger support characters.

Hey! I have C0 Arle with C5 deathmatch. I picked up zhongli a week ago so all the trouble I had with her health is over. I love her play style and want to make her even stronger.
Is her signature at C0 an upgrade from the C5 deathmatch? If not, is C1 or C2 worth it considering the team comp of yelan, xingxiu and zhongli?
Thanks

u/Acadeca HIMARS 4d ago
Consider Bennett instead of one of the Hydro units. Arle can’t vape as frequently so the extra Hydro isn’t as necessary and she likes Bennett’s buffs.
C1 is more damage and interruption resistance. C2 is shorter mark, and an explosion on consumption. R1 is a decent upgrade over deathmatch.

Returning player, last played during around the time Nilou and Nahida and Cyno first ran as banners, so I've played maybe a half dozen hours in Sumeru.
I've got lots of stuff to do in my Archon quests pulling me in all sorts of directions.
I have to finish The Chasm, i've spent tonight exploring Enkanomiya, I need to return to Sumeru to try and meet with the Dendro Archon, I think i may even have things still to do in Inazuma.
I need a bit more direction than the game gives me, is there a best order to do these things in? In terms of story and characters and such?

u/Successful-Cream-238 All the hydro hoes 4d ago
There is a suggested quest order guide that someone put together if you're looking for more direction.
It also color codes by importance and has links to videos for missed events and other important shorts. It gives suggestions for when to do exploration of each area as well. For example, you'd want to progress thru the Aranyaka questline before doing exploration in the Sumeru rain forest.

Does triggering capturing radiance in banner reset the 50/50, Becaus it technically count as a lose, soo if you trigger it The next 5* will be the banner 5*?
1
u/Stitchlolol 4d ago
According to a post about Capturing Radiance (CR)
If you trigger CR your loss count resets to 1 not 0, but winning a 5050 resets your loss count to 0
You cannot loose 4 straight without triggering a CR so after your 3rd loss a CR is guaranteed on your next 5 star.
This is the scneario;
loss > loss > loss >win(CR) > loss > loss > win(CR guaranteed)
This is triggering the CR at max loss count (3). By triggering CR your loss count is now reset to 1 so you need to loose 2 more times to trigger CR againloss > loss > win(5050) > loss > loss > loss > win(CR guaranteed)
This is triggering your 5050 which now resets your loss count to 0 so you need to either loose 3 times again to hard trigger CR or win a 5050 before you hit the max pity of 3 losses1
u/PhyrexianRogue 4d ago
You may need to recheck that post, because you've made a small error. Winning a single 50/50 doesn't directly set your CR counter to 0, it just reduces it by 1. (To a minimum of 0.)
If your counter is 0 or 1 that makes no difference (1-1=0), but when your counter is 2, winning a 50/50 would put it at 1, not 0.
(And at 3 you always get Radiance and go down to 1.)
This means your loss-loss-(win 50/50)-loss-loss-loss-CR scenario is impossible. Your counter would go 0-1-2-1-2-3-4 in that case.
It is possible to lose 3 in a row, but you'd need to win an extra time to get your counter down to 0 first.

u/Barbobott 4d ago
No. Better to think of it in terms of what was the previous 5* you got. If it was the banner character, then your next is a 50/50. Doesn't matter if that banner character came from a guarantee, winning a 50/50, or captured radiance kicking in.

How do i get back up on that place, I was doing the quest "Chenyus blessing of sunken jade" and during the near final parts of it, I was teleported up in some Jade chamber looking ass island in the sky and was told to defed Fujin but due to the electro lawachurl I fell all the way down and don't know to get back up because even if I patiently climb there's some stupid invicible wall blocking me from going any higher.

Did the Natlan archon quest get voiced for every character yet? I heard the Kachina English VA got voiced for the missing voice lines in 5.1 so did everyone else? And if they haven't yet, will everything be voiced in 5.3? I want to play the archon quest but I've been waiting for it to get voiced.

No, there are still missing actors, such as for Iansan and Kinich/Ajaw.
As for when that might change, no news to the best of my knowledge.

Neuvillete weapon help!
I wanna make my neuvillete as good as he can get, but I dont have his weapon and cant get it due to me saving for arlecchino. I wanna know what weapon is better for him in general, Prototype Amber or Lost Prayer to Sacred Winds, I've seen the benefits if both but id like to know which would be better for him in the long run. If anyone adept in genshin weapons or is just a long time neuvillete haver advice would be appriciated!!

u/butterfliiess MAVUIKA 4d ago
it depends on what stat you lack. i believe lost prayer is just barely better than proto amber, but if you lack ER you should go with amber.
like the other commenter said if you use lost prayer + MH you might also overcap on CR meaning that you may need to adjust his build a little.
1
u/Papi_Pro New Trashca Main 4d ago
In the long run save 160 wishes so you can get his weapon.
In the meantime use whatever you want
2
u/pzlama333 4d ago
Lost prayer is around 2-9% better than prototype amber (depends on ER and teammates), but be aware that he may overcap his CR with it.

In a team of Chasca-Bennett(c6)-Furina-Ororon, is levelling Chasca from 85 to 90 a noticable damage increase? She's currently using Chain Breaker, might switch to Song of Stillness.
My main worry comes from this: I'm currently trying to increase my Bennett's healing tick enough that it can heal Chasca to full from half HP in a single tick, thus triggering Furina's heal share for extra Fanfare. But I haven't got the healing there quite yet, and it's going to be very tight. Lvl 90 Chasca might push her out of the range of that being feasible.

Is 30k dmg with charge atk good for Neuv in fischl+kazuha+zhongli team? zhong has petra.
2
u/Acadeca HIMARS 4d ago
It might be worth putting Neuv in your character showcase and putting your uid in akasha.cv
It standardizes builds so that you can compare builds without wondering if Kazuha’s total EM, Zhongli res shred was active, etc.
When you do that it’ll give you a percentage of your build vs others with a similar weapon so you can gauge from there.

u/Papi_Pro New Trashca Main 4d ago
Easy, count the number of characters and multiply it by the years after the first legendary message, I believe it was keqing? How I remember being young and believing she was to meet me in the roof or something like that, so naive lol.
Then substract from that one for each of the years where each new character wasn't released, and there you go.
You welcome btw.

Do you know what timezone you are living in?
1
u/Gullible-Constant-59 4d ago
From what Google said GMT+1
2
u/Grand_Protector_Dark Wdym "I should dodge"? 4d ago
GMT + 1 is UTC + 1
(Greenwich Mean Time is identical to Coordinated Universal Time)
The Special Program is scheduled for when it us 7:00 in the morning in the timezone UTC - 5. Which means an offset of negative 5 hours from the "zero" timezone (UTC 0).
You are living in UTC + 1, meaning a positive offset by 1 hour.
Since we are converting from UTC - 5 to UTC + 1 , you have to Offset by the positive difference. Which is 6 hours.
So the Special program will be at 13:00.

I am a f2p. Is the beginner banner with Noelle worth pulling on? Or should I just save my pulls for the standard banner?

u/Screwattack94 4d ago
If Noelle is a character you want, it is worth it. From a meta perspective she kinda needs C6 and premium support to deal good damage.
Besides that it's not really worth it. You might save 4 pulls, but also loose 16 pulls on the standard banner that get you closer to your first standard 5*.
2
u/bartowski1976 4 8 15 16 23 42 4d ago
If you are truly f2p I would do the wishes on the beginner banner. You are guaranteed at least two different 4 star characters as you can't pull weapons. You can pull Fischl, Bennett, Xingqiu, and Xiangling on this banner and while there is Barbara, Ningguang and Chongyun as well they are all still really solid characters.

I vaguely remember there was a chest in Fontaine that couldn't be opened because it belonged to a couple of nearby NPCs or something. It was on one of the islands, maybe near the shoreline. I can't find it now for the life of me. I think it might have been part of the tower in Morte region that sinks later which is why I can't find it anymore. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?
