If you want to beeline for the talent domain to get started on dendro traveler that domain isn't locked by a puzzle or anything. It's not even that far away, you can go straight to it without going into the city or seeing much of anything if you just want to get access to the talent books and do exploring later. :toot:

The Traveler is a feinting goat and I'm tired of it. Is there any situation where their first resort isn't falling down?

Loving Tighnari's character so far. Tighnari's all let me explain this moderately complex situation to you in a few sentences. Oh and also let me show you I'm a competent character without telling you Genshin Storytelling is back baby!

Edit: Also Tighnari's comment about well if he enjoys seeing little fairies make sure to charge him, then immediately turning to Paimon was pretty funny.

yeah the writing so far seems much snappier, fairly complicated concepts are being explained in pretty concise lines. and the traveler's dialogue options are actually slightly different instead of two fragments of one sentence. seems like they actually listened to feedback.

I rather wish the alligators were fish instead.

I could use more fish.

Also I kinda wish there was a bit more to it than "gently caress it, just wander into sumeru." It's real easy to just find yourself wandering around and so it's been like an hour or so and I still haven't actually "accomplished" that goal, despite all the wandering around and killing I've done.

e. I do rather like these enemies that smack you with whatever element you've been using on them, I've found a couple so far. Pretty cool, but also probably a sign that I should put away raiden and barbara and use eula to make my life easier.

e2. I finally walk over to the marker to start the "go to sumeru quest" and walking back through it there's a new teleport spot in the chasm and a tunnel to get there? Why the hell didn't it just send me there, instead of saying "lol just wander in it's cool."

You eventually get to a room with an interactable spot you can't interact with and no way out/nothing else to do. Unless i'm missing something.

i don't know what's happening but there are a lot of numbers
hyperbloom soup seems like it could be a fun team



those green numbers in the second pic are doing 20k damage when I have a level 1 naked collei so I'm gonna guess that's Kazuha causing blooms with his burst. (mine is only 760 em so with better artifacts those numbers will be even juicier)

Honestly, besides the ears he just looks like that really typical long-hair smart dude who can't be hosed to help/do anything useful from any other game? What really weirded me out was how young he sounds in japanese. I'd only watched the EN videos, but he straight up sounded like a kid in the test run.

Yeah those are the new enemies. That's from the Sumeru artifact domain.

I really wish the game would add a training dummy somewhere so I could test out reactions and rotations and stuff and see damage numbers without having to murder a bunch of dudes in domains

You can use the official Mihoyo interactive map, it should have the locations for all the new stuff.

Yeah. There's a new waypoint in the chasm and a tunnel right near it that leads under the mountain and to Sumeru, dropping you right on the quest objective. Of course this is just a bit out of the way when literally everyone is just climbing over the hills or gliding in from Liyue or whatever. :v:

I really appreciate how Sumeru just let's you run amok and ignore quests if you want. Also, Dendro Traveler seems to do plenty of damage with +0 artifacts if you just throw his burst into an electrocharged soup you've got going.



And speaking of artifacts, I'm pretty sure I burned through a couple months worth of luck with this drop I just got.

The tunnel to the new region was as obvious as the entrance to the chasm was around before the chasm was added. It always had the vines too. But any quest marker pointing players to go into terrain is sure to see players wander every which-way

To be honest, if I was going to look at a signposted tunnel, it would've been where that one fatui guy died, not on the surface. Frankly, from just looking at the map you'd probably do like me and take the northern chasm teleport and walk around.

Also hell yeah, I got a keqing and now I have to actually level up this lion's roar and swear at the TF box for giving me crap artifacts. Nice!

You don't even need to go looking for it though
they put a whole new teleport waypoint on the map in chasm
if you head to the new chasm teleporter to unlock it you will just walk right into the entrance of the tunnel, since that's where the new teleporter is. It's impossible to miss it unless you just ignore that teleport entirely.

Of course I missed it. I activated the quest and it was outside the chasm spiral, which is a pain in the rear end to climb. So naturally I went for the nearest thing that would let me go around it.

I mean, I spotted plenty of cool sumeru dudes doing this, but that seems like a much more sensible reaction than "ah-ha, there's a new waypoint in the middle of this huge spiral. let's look for that."

Well, got the new Dendro girl kinda really easily! I'll just hold onto these since I've still not hit pity. Gotta figure out if I try to get Tighnari now or go for Kokomi. And it's also super lucky that I just finished leveling Heizou and Kazuha's friendship to max today.

Edit: Decided to go for it because I have found a single mushroom and have no idea where to look and I'm back on the 'Wins 50/50s' train I was on before!

those withering zones do not mess around. if the bar fills up (which it does surprisingly fast) it's game over, respawn at the last teleport. I've been playing since a month after launch and I think that's the first time it's ever happened to me.
