I'm at AR52 and just now starting my CW hellgrind because the free rolls from 1.2 got me Diluc. Lavawalker is the biggest cockblock ever and I hate them for including it but I'm not scrapping any of the set's 5s that I roll because I'm paranoid they'll improve it in some way.

i almost killed my LW pieces today (did still scrap some, oh well) but then figured Hu Tao seems like she could benefit from it because her skill does pyro conversion. of course this means Gladiator works just as well/better but they're still committed to making it awful to farm.

Holy poo poo, I am so far behind. I just did the math and getting everyone up to 4th ascension will cost like 1.5 Million Mora. And that's not even counting the costs from using the books and Mora themselves are going to be!

Mora is a pretty ridiculous grind. The last event gave out something like 3 or 4 million over its duration but this one was only like 1 mil total. By comparison actually farming mora ley lines gives way less than that.

You're not leveling any new characters, or at least (wisely) not leveling them to 80 or 90.  If you were to level a new character from 0 to 90 alongside a 5* weapon and all their talents, it would cost a total of over 6 million mora, plus all the xp books and enhancement crystals and weekly boss mats.

there's honestly no point in leveling any character to 80 outside of big numbers for the sake of, "if" your goal is to level your whole roster.

ascending to 70/80 uncaps talent levels from 6 to 8 and ascending to 80/90 uncaps talent levels up to to 10 So it's worth it if you have a shitload of weekly boss mats. But it takes a total of 18 plumes or whatever plus 3 crowns to level all three talents to 10.

The talent table is also missing the last current tier that needs the crown and costs 700k mora. Also leveling to 90 characters is mostly unnecessary (ascending is enough), but the weapons get their substat improvements at 85/90, which might be worth it.

Leveling to 80 is fine. Leveling to 90 is insane and I can't imagine doing so except for maybe my one main carry in the foreseeable future. You have to spend a week of resin farming bosses just to get enough gem things for it, let alone the mora/book costs.

if i wasn't juggling more weapons than is sensible, i'd definitely be pushing some to 90. it's a transferrable item that is also light on resin cost relative to character levels at least.

I had a party member at 79 for months who never left the party and they were not even close to 80 before finally ascending them. I did level my Prototype Aminus and Stringless to 90, figured they will never level up on their own like a character will. The DPS increase going from level 80 to 90 was definitely noticeable, it made WL7 feel the same as WL6. I probably should level up some other weapons, my random supports in the Spiral Abyss do no damage.

theblackw0lf posted:I thought there was a damage penalty if you’re lower level than the enemy. Or maybe they meant weapon level. There is but it's only really significant at low levels. If you're level 60 character hitting a level 90 enemy, you'll do 91% as much damage as a level 90 would do. Level 70s do 94%, and level 80s do 97% The enemy-damage-taken formula is (100 + yourlevel) / (200 + yourlevel + enemylevel) (for some reason the default multiplier against same-level enemies is 50% instead of 100%)

They've shown it in his promo video, IIRC, so not surprised. I've used it a few times with Qiqi in co-op, since it's way more effective than her regular attacks. EDIT: Lol at the questionnaire asking me why I don't want to improve Festering Desire when I picked "absolutely not" and then having to choose Other to write down that it's already enhanced to its maximum.

One of Albedo's constellations adds a plunging attack damage boost to people in the range of the elevator, so yeah. I think it's a bit too clunky to make intentional use of most of the time but it is funny.

Once I would've recommended Kaeya as a F2P replacement for XQ but unfortunately Kaeya just doesn't work as well with Diluc. His E will apply Cryo that DIluc can Melt, but because of the way the reaction works he'll get rid of the Cryo and leave Pyro behind, meaning the next time Kaeya uses his E it'll be proccing a reverse Melt instead. I similarly found it very inconsistent who would trigger the Melt with Kaeya's Q active. XQ has none of these issues in part because the reverse Vaporize reaction, while it does less damage, leaves the Hydro in place to hit with Pyro multiple times. Unfortunately there's no easy replacement for that. Barbara swaps technically would work but are super awkward and she also doesn't do anywhere near the damage XQ does. Just gotta hope he shows up in the store soon.

I was playing around with a Zhongli/Albedo team and compared the initial damage when putting down the stele versus when putting down the flower. At the same level, with 1 more attack on Albedo, 4% more geo damage on Zhongli, and no crits: the flower did 950 and the stele did 130. I really want to like Geo Grandpa, but at C0 he just feels like a shittier version of Albedo outside of bursting. YoshiOfYellow posted:One of Albedo's constellations adds a plunging attack damage boost to people in the range of the elevator, so yeah. I think it's a bit too clunky to make intentional use of most of the time but it is funny. How does plunge damage work, anyway? The normal attack talent screen lists a plunge damage stat and a low/high plunge damage stat, so it can't be as simple as slotting the former value into a normal damage equation.

I hope I can pull Albedo before the banner is up, because I'm not really feeling Ganyu. The only thing I like is her passive Cryo buff. Looks like they did change her ascension stat to CRIT DMG, though, so there might be potential for some fun melt headshot shenanigans.

I think the way it works is that the value that just says plunge damage is what you deal to anything you hit during your descent, and then the low/high values are for the AOE when you land. E: The weirdest thing I've noticed about plunge attacks is that Ningguang's doesn't share any of the rock breaking properties of her normals, even though I'm pretty sure it still does geo damage. It's just as useless for mining purposes as all the other catalyst and bow attacks. Guessing this probably applies to Klee, too.
