It appears quality got screwed a bit in rendering phase : P Should still be fine since gameplay isn't the core of this video
Atleast he is improving stage
Still nerf
copium
cute buffs but nah they kilIed our husbandos by overnerfing him…. imma get him in his re-run if he's good in live servers but other than that Imma save for Baizhu and Arlecchino. if AlHaitham still sucks in the live servers I guess Imma skip his re-run.
Al Haitham in a nutshell
V1 A Balanced 5*
V2 Became a 4*
V3 Slightly better 4*
By the end of Beta Mhy changes will be a Nerfed Alhaitham who needs a C6 Yaoyao to function.😂
Thay did my mans dirty even though thay won't make changes to his kit again im still hoping for it because I didn't spend 2 months farming for him for nothing,idc im still pulling him because I make bad financial decisions
Any more info on Dehya — best so far we got is that she is life Fischl with 3 charges?
While I'm happy about the buff, especially the reversion of his A1 nerf, those NA nerfs really seem unnecessary at this point. If anything they should at least have reduced his energy requirement, at least to 60 since they're so stingy with their buffs.
you have no idea how much I love your videos! this is the only place where the damage of the character is really analyzed, and not just some nonsense about a nerf of 30% is said at random.. I am now sure that I will wish for Al Haitham , thank you!🤧
Who would be the electro applier for spread if not kuki though? In single target scenarios it's fine but in aoe kuki and Raiden are the only reliable ones. If Yao Yao takes the healing position, then there's not a need for kuki unless you run double healer sooo?
Is this the last update on beta that we will get for him or will we get another one next week??
A buff is a buff, and I would gladly take it. I'm here for the character to begin with. I even made a claim that I'd pull for AlHaitham should he end up with a Support role hahaha!
Anyway, one thing that still peeved me is how Kaveh isn't in AlHaitham's banner. I guess I liked their bickering hate/hate interaction on the last bit of the Archon quest, so it's probably just favouritism there.
this video is copium at its finest. I dont think anybody's "happy" as u put it, even after these changes. He's still mid.
How much ER does YaoYao herself need
At this point i just don't care about damage, i want to observe his pretty ass on my screen 24/7
Honestly when you look closely at it it was more of a balancing than a buff the projection attack where equalized at the cost of normal attack ( guess since he can use spread the normal nerf isn’t that bad ) value and e reduced .
But otherwise I think people are happy with it because of the hard nerf he received at the first update beta and are now settling for less . Since it is still an overall increase . I will personally pull for him no matter what but it’s kinda sad .
Are u saying I can now save nahida for the other team with Yaoyaos buff🙀
But what other EM buffs are there
"Make AlHaitam great again!"
bro why nerf his NA and CA? its already lower than fcking keqing to begin with smh and al haitham doesnt benefit from kazuha the way keqing or other electro characters do, at least not atm. His chisel mirrors dont even get that significantly buffed, it triggers every 1.6 seconds which means ur autos will still contribute to a portion of your damage. I still dont get how the x2 or x3 hits of his chisel light works but im willing to bet those wont even all be spread damage and only the first hit of the x2 or x3 gets spread dmg at best. Unless those hits have individual icd like ganyu's charge attack being able to both melt the two hits.
It'd be cool if MHY didn't feel the to play these bait and switch games.
1) Make a handsome character with a unique and strong kit.
2) Drum up hype by giving them big numbers.
3) Keep the interest going with a series of nerfs and buffs.
4) Character releases as intended and players feel good that the hero they wanted turned out good in the end.
5) Make up any potential revenue losses in the release banner with future reruns after doomposting settles.
MHY keeps testing what they can and can't get away with. It's frustrating because obviously they know how to create good characters, yet choose to toy with their consumers and products.
Just make a good, fun game. Turning a profit is important, but there isn't a need to screw over your playerbase.
MHY makes me sad sometimes.
Sumeru male char: Midnari, Midyno, Miderer & Midhaitham
Midaveh next?
He is just going to stay like this. Don't think he will get anymore upgrades.
Problem is they make female dps broken and male dps pretty average
Overall his kit still got nerfed. Id rather him just be how he was originally
I wanted to get this idea out there to you since I've been watching your videos lately.
Since his burst generates 3 mirrors if you use the base version of it, why not alternate between his burst and skill to keep his mirrors up in two different damage windows? This would give him a 15 second and a 13 second window that can fully be buffed instead of them falling off because the field time is too long. This would also practically eliminate his need for a battery since he'll be getting energy from both before he needs to use it again. It's basically like Fischl and Oz but on field instead of off field.
The nerf is actually a lot than the buff. I think alhaitham is an applier like childe. Hmm how unlucky
still not pleased. he was plenty balanced already. why couldn’t hoyoverse just keep him as he was……….
Waiting for a certain Vinsara's comment saying he needs to be nerfed again 🤫
They should change his ultimate, it's not worth 70 energy, not to mention that constellations (mainly 4) are no longer as effective due to the nerf he suffered
I'm pretty sure when Dehya is being made, she won't be nerfed and if she is nerfed it'll be insignificant nerfs, then we'll make sure they never release a male dps Op, at least at least most of the time the male characters have more interesting plots
So far, you’re the only one I actually look forward to when discussing leaks solely because you don’t use those damn automated voices. Keep it up!
Anyway, seeing how many people have actually decided to skip him after all this, it seems like I’ll be in the small portion of the community that’s still going to pull for him.
I guess people forgot or don't know that Tighnari NA multiplier is lower than Al haitham
loving the al haitham news but i'm relieved that hoyo is finally making good 4 stars again
CA nerfs are not a huge deal?!
they freaking nerfed it twice!
skill wasn't "buffed"
it was just balanced
They need to buff his burst and weapon
@The Genshin Scientist dude I’ve a slight doubt abt yaoyaos kit. Some part of her kit provides 50percent dendro bonus right?? Is that to her alone or to the whole party??
I'm honestly scared coz I don't have nahida who I really want and even worse if he wants her in a party for full potential. My er is about 125% currently with 61/180 ratio, em sands.. yaoyao's latest kit didn't seem to be that great specifically her healing targeting mechanism
I hear that the burst cost is too high, but i wonder, does someone know how many particles Al haitam generates? because it may not be as bad as it seems
just 10% buffed , I suggest not waste your money and time to pull for this rubbish , Mihoyo doesn't listen players opinion, they don't want Alhaitham be T0 character . ( Just I don't like him , Mihoyo developers think )
I’m guaranteed, should I still go for Al Haitham or should I go for Raiden?
