Space Opera posted:That's an hour of my life I'm not getting back. Still, the reward is cute, AND I hit AR 60 so it's a win. It's kind of odd though that there has been no word on increasing the AR cap in 3.0 given that anyone who played even casually since roughly launch is going to be 58-60. I wonder if they're planning to do something closer to the anniversary? i hope they never add any meaningful increases to the top end of AR/world level, there's already way too much of a barrier for new players although i guess an infinite grind that just makes some rank number go up without changing anything else about the game would be fine

Coolness Averted posted:Wasn't that what they were building Childe/Tartagia as? Or did he just never show up again after the Geo Archon story? no he was Just Following Orders(tm) and immediately became the MC's best buddy as soon as his story arc & boss fight were over he showed up in the Mystic Onmyou Chamber event in Inazuma, and in that one Traveler and Paimon were basically like "shh we better not mention any of our buddy Tartaglia's murders and warcrimes around Xinyan cus she would probably get mad about them, unlike us two who are totally cool with it" and covering for him became a minor subplot his story quest is also set after his boss fight and he's friendly with MC there too Eimi posted:Only if Itto never loses because he always gets miracle topdecks.

Endorph posted:also on the cn server apparently literally every single launch weapon (since the game doesnt really have 'gacha characters') is already useless in the meta, which, feels like a much worse situation to be in than the launch 4*s being too good like genshin is. Hey, not every launch weapon. Tsubasa's ice bow still has a use (as the weaker poverty alternative to the better meta damage buffers like Frigg or Marc). Also it has a Honkai3 style stigmata gacha. Imagine if instead of one 5-star gacha weapon you equipped a set of 4, and they had set bonuses (and yes they still need dupes to power up). The combat is fun though and the movement gadgets are neat, I keep trying to airdash during my daily bounties in Genshin now.

padijun posted:Have the theorycrafters figured out what collei and tighnari’s best weapons will be? I’ve got the elegy and harp for 5*s; rust, the sac bow, fav bow, stringless, and the bp bow for 4*s. Who gets what? I wouldn't trust much theorycrafting about dendro characters until after people actually get their hands on them and play with them ingame, since the way they play and do damage is pretty different from what TCs are used to working with. I'm guessing either the new craftable bow or the 3.0 event bow will probably be designed to be good for him? But you never know, look at Kazuha's story sword, or Hamayumi with Yoimiya. That said Collei seems like mostly a reaction support so I'd probably prioritize ER / burst uptime over personal damage and give her Fav or Sac.

Yeah ToF's story is not really related at all to cybernetics vs humanity so far. It's actually about how humanity destroyed civilization by building the Tower of Fantasy(tm) to harness the zombie radiation from the moon, then literally destroyed the world by making a failed time machine powered by zombie radiation to try and go back before the cataclysm and unfuck everything, which shattered the spacetime continuum or some poo poo. And the megacorp which made the tower & time machine runs what's left of the world. Now a few decades years later (or is it a few hundred years?) a terrorist group is loving with everyone and stealing all their poo poo in an attempt to recreate the time machine and re-attempt the hail mary time machine strat. The robot thing is just a minor subplot when Shirli's zombie radation inhibitor breaks and her brother Zeke defects to the terrorists so they'll make her a nonzombified cyborg body before she dies.

Zenostein posted:Not having any sort of indicator as to whether you can dodge (unless I've just not seen it) doesn't help. There's a dodge meter but it's a little hard to see blue bar that's kinda out of the way along the right edge of the screen. Should be much more prominent.

FractalSandwich posted:I just started playing recently and only got access to the summer event today. Given that it ends in a few days and seems to involve an extremely long quest chain, will I have time to get anything worthwhile out of it, or should I just give it a miss at this point? I wouldn't bother running around to collect all the chests (at least not unless you have free time afterwards and feel like tooling around for a few handfuls of primogems) but you should definitely try and blast through the event story and follow a guide to collect 16 conches so you can get the free Fischl and her skin. You can see the locations of all the overworld conches on the official interactive map. RPATDO_LAMD fucked around with this message at 06:48 on Aug 20, 2022 |

Helical Nightmares posted:This would be very cool. Your choice with the SSR box is basically just down to which playstyle you want to focus on. Meryl will let you run double tank weapons with her+Huma if you want to play as a tank in party content, and Zero will enable double-support without having to use the SR healing staff so you can be a healer. Zero is not especially good outside of his niche as "the only other standard-banner support" (or if you get tons of dupes) so I would just avoid him unless you really want to play as healer while also wanting to skip the Nemesis banner. Plus Huma already covers the pyro niche and she's great, especially if you pick up her 1* dupe passive which is one of the best in the game and gives a huge damage boost to her active skill. And yeah Meryl is one of the best weapons in pvp, probably top 3. I got to top 100 on my server using her + huma. But it is just painful going against all the Nemesis 3x healer keepaway teams. If you don't plan to use her for PvE stuff I wouldn't pick her up purely for PvP because the high level pvp meta is just super unpleasant at the moment and gets old fast (until they release a new powercreepy limited to counter nemesis :p ). King is another option if you do plan to roll for Cobalt the fire shotgun lady later since unlike Huma he will enable double-dps resonance with her so you can bring a support weapon like Coco. If you run Huma + Cobalt as your fire team then you will need some kinda filler DPS to stick in your third slot for that +40% damage passive, so no chance to use Coco. But IDK how big of a deal that is, Huma+Cobalt+Shiro is probably a fine team.

Mix. posted:That is Celestia, "the residence of the gods", supposedly where Vision-bearers who perform great heroic feats will ascend to and achieve godhood Also important detail: those vision-bearers who perform great heroic feats and ascend to godhood are called "genshin" in the CN and JP versions. (Venti explains it in his end-of-Act-1 loredump.) So Celestia & Genshin will proooobably be be pretty relevant to the long-term plot. But the English TL dropped the ball hard and called them "Allogenes" instead of realizing that it was literally the name of the game.

Kale posted:原神 or Yuanshen as they call it in China translates more or less to "Original God" in English. Google Translate will tell you it means Genshin Impact now which is also kind of true, but that's it favoring a regional commercial branding over the literal translation if anything. "Genshin" is literally just the Japanese reading/pronunciation of 原神, same as e.g. "Nana" is the Japanese reading of "七七" aka Qiqi. (Side note: this is why if you enable Japanese voiceover a lot of the Liyue characters' names change -- their names are still the same characters but they're pronounced totally differently. English uses the Chinese reading for Liyue names like Qiqi but the Japanese reading for Inazuman characters like Ayaka) In Japan the game is still called 原神 but they use the Japanese reading, and for English/Global they just named the game based off the Japanese pronunciation instead of the Chinese one because they know their customer base is mostly weebs.
