Some of these in-game books (which I haven't looked at much until now) are pretty interesting. There's this one series that is about the old guy in Springvale who talks about the Spring Fairy, and it's really obvious that at least half of these books are referencing important characters/historical events. edit: The Hilichurl Customs books read like some sort of 19th century colonial propaganda lol Shadowhand00 posted:Honkai's not bad but gacha rates, etc. are just as bad as Genshin. ITs more action vignettes than an open world and it doesn't truly get challenging until around level 80. That being said, I like some of the systems in place like switchiing QTEs. They've definitely done that better than Genshin. The story is actually not bad either later on (early chapters are stupid) Is it possible to go through its story relatively quickly?

Yes, you can blaze through early Honkai. It's all arena/short stage setpieces like an arcade brawler, until you hit up the side dungeons and the few open areas.

Ashenai posted:So, I'm very fond of this game, and I'm wondering if it would be completely stupid to get into Honkai Impact 3 for more MiHoYo goodness (and ancillary lore, since there seem to be some links between the two universes). I remember giving Honkai a try a couple of years ago, but bounced off immediately. It is worth giving it another chance, anyone know? I just downloaded it on PC a couple days ago out of storyline curiosity too and it's been pretty entertaining so far. The action is extremely fun with a controller, but you're only in a map for a few minutes at a time, so it's very bite-sized content. You definitely get the full "experiencing a gacha game years after release" vibe as you're bombarded with a dozen different currencies in a couple hours, and event screen after event screen covered in notifications for you to click on. There's the traditional weekly material farming quests, daily event quests, guild cumulative score weekly, a super janky "open world" map w/ storyline and missions, regular story missions w/ three difficulty levels, character story quests (like genshin), and a competitive abyss-like mode that i don't really understand yet. I can't speak to character and equipment power levels though, I've got a handful of S rank characters, am halfway to a second 25 pull pity just off the initial achievment gems, and have a redemption ticket for another S rank choice waiting. Ranking them up to SSS looks like it'll be a huge grind though chasing the fragments required. Hopefully i'm wrong? Been bombarded with a hefty amount of 4* weapons and The character trial system and character focused quests you see in genshin are in full effect, so you get lots of chances to play around with the stupid overpowered characters. I don't see anything holding me back though from playing through the story and having a good time with it though. If someone else as been playing longer and can illuminate on where the walls hit that would be rad. e;fb looks like that's been answered

nessin posted:You'd want to replace Fischl not the MC in that lineup. Fischl's great support capability is meaningless if you're main DPS is doing electro damage as well. The only value Fischl would bring at that point is in her C6 unless you were fighting something with a water shield and needed the extra electro damage. That's not entirely true, and as weird as this is, there's a subreddit dedicated entirely to just people who use Keqing as their dps. Short answer is that it mainly just depends on how much energy recharge you have on keqing and whether you're doing a physical or electro build, which is mainly decided by what artifacts and gear you have access to.

So my Diluc is 70 now with a Prototype Animus, at what point do I start stacking Crit%? Right now I have Pyro%-ATK%-ATK% artifacts. My big problem now is getting my 2nd team tuned. Xiangling/Jean/Mona/Barbara, Xiangling does a ton of damage but I'm finding it hard to group up enemies and I wind up wasting a lot of ultimates on 1 or 2 monsters. Jean just seems to shotgun them. Maybe Venti has me completely spoiled. I did get 3xSucrose with this new banner so I could maybe sub her in, when I did Co-Op domains she seemed good at it.

Make sure you're taking advantage of the elemental combos in your party makeup. I've created a "explore the world" party that consists of two Anemo characters (Jean and Sucrose) that because of the combo decreases stamina consumption by 15% and increases movement speed by 10%. Combine that with Kaeya's 20% decrease stamina for sprinting, and Amber's 20% for gliding, and it makes for a fast travel team. This isn't my main team. Jean's the only one that's level 60. The rest are below 40. But Jean pretty much takes care of everything on her own.

For overworld I like Diluc-Amber-Anemotraveler-Lisa because Diluc ignites grass and kills everything and shatters shields, Amber does trick shots as necessary, Lisa is very good at exploiting the grass-fires for a shitload of overloads or dumping her thing so Diluc can overload, and Traveler can exploit grass fires or electricity for great damage. Healing is, uh, not really a problem. Just munch some apples I guess.

Regarding hillichurls, when you teleport to Mingyun village and fly from the teleporter straight up across the valley, there's a basic hillichurl sitting alone on a bridge, chilling with shield lying next to him and looking at scenery. I always let him be, seemed too mean to attack him.

Does the Stormterror domain fight continually scale with World Level? I hit WL3 rather by accident and don't have enough to get my whole team from 40 to 50+. I'd only be doing it for the battle pass weekly, but if it's going to be harder than it was at WL2 then I'm not touching it for a bit. Also Klee gave me herself with her bonus gems today. Attack is the primary thing I'd want to build for right? Edit: Cool, I'll do a lower level one then later on Canopus250 fucked around with this message at 02:43 on Oct 29, 2020 |

Stormterror unlocks more difficulty when you raise world level, but you can choose the difficulty. Wolf iirc auto scales with your world level.

It's 25% chance per craft to return 1 book. It's not huge, but it makes up for it over time. I think I've saved ~20-30 green books from crafting getting talents for my primary 4 up.

But you really shouldn't have a problem with Stormterror even with a drastically underleveled team. Just be aware that: 1. When he fucks up a platform it creates wind currents to let you move to different ones 2. You can smack his hand when he lands to attack you. No ranged attacks needed 3. When you KO him, you can climb up his neck to hit the crystal He's probably the easiest boss in the game as long as you know that you are able to do these things.

moush posted:Why is Keqing rated so highly? Compared to Diluc her DPS just seems massively inferior. From your personal experience or something? Her key thing is that she's less reliant on crit chance gear since she something absurd like 75% natural crit rate, her mobility is high in a game where bosses keep moving, and her charged attack has a special modifier for damage.

Keqing gets natural crit DMG. It's Diluc who gets crit rate. But all the same, it gives her the opportunity to invest in other stats.

She also can turn her basic attacks into electro and then stack up Electro Damage on her accessories on top of ATK% boosts. EDIT: Honestly she's super rad because she's lightning waifu Virgil and I wouldn't mind pulling her even if she completely competes with Razor in my party slots.

moush posted:Why is Keqing rated so highly? Compared to Diluc her DPS just seems massively inferior. DPS aside, she has major issues against enemies with elemental immunities/resistances to a degree that Diluc absolutely does not. She does fuckall against electric resistant mobs and with the way elec combos, she still has huge problems against other types of elemental enemies since you're just doing poo poo like proccing overload vs fire slimes for 0 damage while someone like Diluc will tear apart an electric slime with extreme ease. It feels like half the enemies you fight as Keqing put you at a significant disadvantage. You can get around this with a physical Keqing build, but that carries its own issues and completely defeats the purpose of even playing the character by making her incredibly boring. And she doesn't get to use a greatsword either, which carries a lot of benefits. She gets less use out of taking Fischl along than someone of a different element as well, which is honestly a pretty big disadvantage considering how broken Fischl is. That being said, I still think she's the best just because she's a lot of fun. Teleporting around and having a very mobile basic attack is a blast and I am super glad that I rerolled my Diluc account into Keqing. Vargs fucked around with this message at 03:50 on Oct 29, 2020 |

Good to know my instincts were spot on for throwing the Sacrificial Sword on him. The multipliers on his skill are just too ridiculous to pass up the occasional double cast. Plus all that energy generation.

I've got to say, I generally detest anime, and I don't like most of the characters I've pulled on a design level, but something about this game is really drawing me in. I just hit the end of the main story quest that's in-game so far, collected all the anemoculi, and am actively excited about starting the geoculi hunt tomorrow.

So that artifact looting route posted a couple pages back is really great. Guaranteed exp for time invested, each spot gives 100-300 mora to offset the cost of investing artifacts, and there's plenty of monsters on the route for extra loot. Finally got this up to 20 and while it would obviously be better with crit dmg and maybe recharge it's still my best artifact by a long shot.

The only enemy you should have problems with as Keqing is electric slimes and electric shields. No different than say diluc being terrible at killing fire slimes. You will overload for 0 vs a fire slime because your basic attacks apply elec, which combines with their innate fire to create overload, which does pure fire damage, which they are immune to. So you aren't getting any benefit from the elemental combo. When you compare it to the similar scenario of Diluc hitting a slime that is Keqing's element, he's smacking that elec slime and getting overload procs which DO gently caress it up badly because the elec slime is not immune to fire. Diluc is very bad vs fire slimes. Keqing is very bad vs elec slimes. But Keqing is also fairly bad vs fire slimes while Diluc has a strong advantage over elec slimes.
