Super fun to use.

 

He has two ways to fight, his ult can infuse his normal attacks with electro like a mini Yoimiya, or he can shoot special charged attacks that go up to three stacks like a mini Ganyu and deal heavy damage. Also his arrows pierce all enemies on its path. Very useful for dendro related reactions since he scales off EM and Crit.

On 5.2 the compass will show the seelies and the challenges on the map that we didn't do before. I hope they will also show us the Aranaras because omg that will change everything for me  

[Funnyfatty]

The amount of hidden achievements this game has omg. 
 

i just went to Ekonomia after so long because it was one of the best places in the game. Sat on a stone and a dead bich called Kabeyama popped out. I got a precious chest for it + an achievement when i sat on 3 other stones

 

The amount of primos that are left on the map if i would actually focus and spent HOURS on just the hoyo map and search them

You did that quest? Its pretty dark and cool. Takes 10 min max. 
 

you literally get 15 primos for sitting. If only my boyfriend would appreciate me sitting 

[Funnyfatty]

This game became very weird btw with all the powercreeping. You really need to LOVE a character in order to pull for them because why would people even pull for some anymore? 
 

Like i'm talking about Albedo, Klee, Hutao, Yoimiya, Eula, Cyno, Xiao, Venti, Ayaka, Baizhu is literally DESTROYED with Xilonens release  

 

Most of those characters are totally powercrept and loosers now. Hell even Itto. You really must LOVE him to pull for him because Navia destroyed everything he was good at. 
 

I think characters like Nilou, Xilonen, Emilie, Clamidia, Alhatiam etc. are niche so it makes sense to pull for them because they do something different but for the rest? 
 

I'm also wondering how the meta will change after the elemental buffs for superconduct, Shatter, Electrocharge and Overload. Eula, Raiden and FremiRAT will increase i believe

[GotMyBlueprint]

Went all out and got C1 Chiroi instead of C1 Xilonen, Xilonen's stuck at C0.

 

On the road to mediocrity but at least she looks pretty.

Idk what it is but Chiori is such a DMN QUEEN  

 

Even though Xilonen and her C2 is so broken i would also go for Chiori cons. There is something about her so iconic idk what. 
 

If i had more wishes and didn't want to pull for Onika, Xianyun and Clitlali i would go for more Chiori cons too. 

[Funnyfatty]

That Kinich banner was there for

MONTHS while Xilonen is leaving already. Can't believe we are already in part 2 of 5.1

About the map in Tevyat, i guess last year we finished Liyue completely? 
 

Inazuma and Sumeru are also complete i guess? And so is Fontaine? 
 

We will get a Mondstadt update with Natlan and after that straight to Sneznhaya right? 

 

Fontaine should not be complete asfaik. There was a whole talk of adding Mont Esus in the later patches of version 4.

Well Hutao and Yoimiya benefited from Xilonen, for the most part. Especially Hutao, she has another busted support that she can easily use? Same goes for Itto. And also Ningguang, she doesn't feel horrible to play and can easily link up with powerful stuff. 

 

Ayaka is Ayaka, she only is good for that freeze team (same goes for Cyno and Eula). Idk how Xiao got worse where he had 2 great supports, sure he is expensive but when you get there, he would easily be top tier. That Furina, Faruzan c6, Xianyun team is low key amazing. Idk, i really love when they release busted supports, they really can make older characters shine a lot more. I still have to get proper artifacts for my Ning but she feels a lot, a lot better with Xilonen. It is kinda ridiculous how much Xilonen enables her.

Yeah but you talk about supports. + xilonen gives pyro characters +%40 attack bonus with her C2 and Hutao doesn't benefit from that. 
 

Anyways supports being so powerful is still weird. Support characters are literally supporting another support character now (which is kind of fun ngl) like DPS Charlotte and Sucrose etc but i hope they won't exaggerate this. 
 

———————————

 

I can't believe this patch tbh. I had 160 wishes for Xilonen. I got her in 10 wishes  10 wishes later i got Chiori  and 60 wishes later i got Xilonens sig weapon

 

I'm now around 140 wishes again. 
 

Hopefully if this continues i can get Mauvika, Xianyun AND Wrio  

 

I'm skipping Nahida banner + whole of 5.2 so i might be above 300 wishes by the beginning of 5.3

I'm doing Emilie's story quest and I'm FULLY gagged I wasn't expecting actual murders

But Hutao does benefit from Xilonen's fire resistance shred so the latter's release doesn't overshadow her against the other DPS's. Xilonen C2 can also work for Yanfei DPS for example, a character who is "powercrept" the second she has been released but she still does benefit from them and take her damage to new heights. From a purely meta perspective, i can understand your statement but in the end, there is more to being powercrept than not being the top 5 DPS's of the game imho. 

 

The only powercrept (for me anyway) so far has been Albedo and Chiori where she can do everything he exactly does and better. Eula is bad because physical is bad, Ayaka is bad because she works in Freeze and that is out of the window. Xiao on his own might not be in the same calibre with Neuvilette but i wouldn't say he is being powercrept and being left in the rear window when the recent characters have helped him immensely.

Is Nahida C2 still worth it?

Mainly thinking in the context of

Alhaitham hyperbloom

Clorinde aggravate

maybe on field double hydro hyperbloom

depends... it's just a dmg boost which in this game doesn't really matter but it's a fckng huge one. the def shred is already crazy but when you mix in the crit blooms... at C2 I think she totally powercreeps emilie too

BUT it's always fun to see Al Haitham do 100k+ per skill proc, Clorinde clearing waves with just her ult, nilou blooms hitting 70k dmg 

[Baby Dancer]

Getting Kingich and his weapon really screwed me over. I got Qiqi'ed and it looks like no Xilonen for me. The plight of lgbtf2p

Natlan at archon quest almost Liyue tier garbage. Without the lore bombs it would be worse than Liyue for me. Garbage region.

Yeah I think Natlan is shaping up to be the worst nation ever. The plot is kinda whatever, the characters are serving AI generated (both in design and lore), the events are nothing special so far. The only good thing about this nation is the map, I really like exploring it but even then they messed up by making us kill saurians (yeah I'm still salty over this) so yeah let's just skip to Snezhnaya and pretend this never happened.

 

 

Stop doing drugs is bad for you guys

Natlan is really good I'm actually doing the story without pressing the X button so fast like I do in Honkai
 

 

[Chiidish]

Haven't done drugs in over a year, Natrash is just for people who enjoy demon slayer or blue lock. 
 

Spoiler

nothing happens just shock value and no substance. The characters are nice though!

Well her C2 gives her +20 crit rate and +100 crit damage. + 30% dendro def shred. 
 

Its very nice but i have to skip her because of 5.3 being so near. If she would come around 5.4 i would have gone C2 for her. 
 

Her weapon is a MESS though.

Good for you! Chiori C1 is such a flex unit, you can use her in any team you want now.

 

I skipped Xilonen (ugly!) and got my Chiori C2. I I'll stop at C2 because she's already doing lots of damage and I have no intention of using her on field, I like her as a sub dps.

 

It's so satisfying to cast her dolls and swiftly change to the next character. Those who have her know what I'm talking about.

I agree with you other than calling Xilonen ugly lol. But i love to play Chiori on field. Its just pleasure to my eyes to see her. A few hours left should i pull for her once more?  

 

Her C0 is so much FUN  

 

i have her Def/Def/Def btw. She is above 3800 def, 60 crit rate/95 crit dmg. She does above 100k damage with her burst at C0 lol 

[Funnyfatty]

I just checked and Mualani has more pulls than Lyney and Wriothesley according to Paimon moe. That is kind of shocking  

 

With Xilonens release more people did share their pulls with the website and since then its been increasing a lot. I believe Xilonen will also reach above 100k nearby. Kind of shocked ngl Natlan had a terrible start with the sabotage and whitewashing.

Lyney is a charged attack bow user and Wriothesley is kinda underwhelming at C0 so it's not shocking that a brain dead dps that only needs two pyro units on the team to deal 400k damage per hit sold more than them

 

Xilonen on the other hand... ugly and a flop. I really expected her to pull at least Navia numbers but girlie flopped and flopper hard. And Chasca will be the same. Only Capitano can save NOtlan
