First. The thing about genshin is if you increase your damage in one way, you are sacrificing something else. There is no one way to build a character and a team. Enjoy the game the way you like it and that's what great about Genshin.
I feel that the random nature of artifacts was deliberately designed to suppress the BiS debate.
🌸❤️I would say that indeed your absence on the Genshin Scene has not gone unnoticed. That said I am glad that you are still following Genshin. I concur with your opinion and feel too that min-maxing elitist are tad bit overbearing. One do not have to run a “certain setup”, “certain characters/gear, or meta, because that is what is popular. You should indeed run the setups that appeal to you, which is why I do not subscribe to meta and it is so I instead choose to run as what I enjoy (full Geo).❤️🌸
Thanks, im gonna play my prototype amber healer sucrose build now
Fan of you since the Warframe days. Glad you have the same mindset with the game as i do.
I just got into Genshin Impact so maybe I'm stupid bit I've gotten to the point where I'm about to go after stormterror so I don't know much.
Heck I just unlocked the battle pass lols.
you spoke facts man rs
THANK YOU! I honestly don't understand this whole mess considering this isn't a competitive game. Just work with what you have and have fun with it. Hell I got diluc and I don't really use him but I use Amber heavily. (just use what you can and have fun)
I feel like this type of game is naturally going to draw in these types of behavior. It's a gacha game, a virtual gachapon machine, which means its main draw is the gacha elements, and people love to show off those things they got with lots of luck, moeny and/or time spent. It can create a sense of validation, that the ammount of time/money they spent to get those things were worth it, or that their luck in getting those things means more than in actually does.
So asking "why aren't you using BIS this and that" may not be because they care about your efficiency, but because they want to show off that THEY do have those BIS stuff. Like how people may join someone's world at WL 8 with a lvl 20 Diluk, just to show off that they got him.
Yeah people can be so toxic with that BEST IN SLOT crap XD
Man you be you I really enjoy your videos I HATE the community has made you feel this way its bull shit man please keep doing what you do I love the game because versatility with building a unit and F. Y. I I'm using festering Desire on Albedo its amazing 👌👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
It's a sad side effect these days of so many you tube guides for every game out there, some people just don't know how to discover and enjoy a game for themselves anymore. Finding your own builds and min maxing with what you have is so much more satisfying, I've found the luck aspect of Genshin really fun for that, as my team comp and builds feel unique. Part of what makes your channel more fun and refreshing is that you never tell anyone how to play, you just share what you genuinely enjoy, and that's always been your thing man, so yeah don't let that stuff bother you man, keep doing what you do.
Yh I'm getting really tired of these BEST IN SLOT stuff. Like seriously, who are you competing against in a PVE game. If I can still delete stuff with a subpar Glad set on my Razor, then I don't need to go ahead to farm the BEST IN SLOT immediately. Besides its not like I have enough resin to build all these characters that I want to a lvl I think they're good.
I completely agree, some people take the meta a bit too seriously instead of having fun, whenever someone ask about what character they should get I always say they should use whatever character they like gameplay and design wise tbh.
As for the whole Ganyu thing, it really bothered the hell out of me tbh, everyone where complaining about 5* having their stuff locked behind constellations and the minute a character who's great at c0 and f2p friendly people complain too? What? Even though nobody complains about Venti being broken, in fact it was the opposite because I remember people complaining about Venti not being able to pick up Klee's bombs, and this is a pve game like you said, it shouldn't matter. There's a lot of annoying and hypocrites in this community tbch, don't let it get to ya.
True,I'm out here AR 51 and just managed to get into floor 9,can't beat even chamber 1 with C0 diluc and Bennett
But I'm having fun with me and my 16k crits
talk yo shit i use amber bennit fishl and diona
Absolutely agree. Play how you want to play and with the team and gear you like. I don‘t understand these calls for rankings and PvP in GI. If you want that kind of things, there are enough other games out there that offer that. That being said, I do like seeing big dmg numbers I can do with all those suggested (or even BiS) builds out there, but that is for my own satisfaction and not something I would force down someone else‘s throat for the sakes of showing „I-am-better“ attitude.
I completely agree with you. It's a PvE game. Play it how you want to play it. I'm sorry the best-in-slot thing has been stripping the fun out of making Genshin content for you.
is that a casual 30k ult on Bennet there 2:28 Pogchamp
all jokes aside I quite agree with you, the amount of times I've been kicked out for not using Dulic is astonishing!
you have Dulic?
yeah…
we need pyro, get him here
he is level 20 tho?
why?? he is the best
I don't like him that much, my Xiangling level 90 and c6 with a god build tho.
kick from party
just the other day i tried domain co op for the first time and everyone started the domain before i got into the area all because i was about to use chongyun even though he was lv70 and all my best artifacts on him in a lv69 domain :'))
Completely agree. This reminds me of your Childe + Beidou video where you basically explained how it wasn't necessarily the perfect team comp(due to childe having wonky timing etc), but now it's one of my favorite teams because of fun factor. There are so many crazy combinations of characters and interactions in this game, it's one of the main reasons I can't stop playing.
My best in slot is lion roar on xingqiu with bennet & beidou as support :v
Great video DK. It’s why the most enjoyable videos to watch for me are the creators who use non-meta teams.
As you said, the RNG gacha definitely limits what each player will have & everyone’s gonna have to work with what they have instead of the BiS.
At the end of the day, as long as you’re enjoying your game, you shouldn’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
PS. For the Ningguang question, haven’t tested it yet, but basing on the text, both regular & charged attacks get the 40% boost so it should still boost the 7 star jade dmg as it is a charged. I’m not sure if it’s fixed already though, but I hear star jade damage modifiers are bugged though.
But still, the dps difference between Bolide or AP+Glad/Noblesse seem inconsequential to me. Ningguang still erases everything in sight pretty fast especially if you’ve mastered Attack-cancel making her into a slightly slower version of Machine-Gun Fischl with AoE Dmage & a super deadly single target Q. Everything except Geo slimes that is lol
Honestly I enjoyed your genshin content BECAUSE you never really cared about the "meta" and "best in slot" bs. I like to watch people experiment with different build and characters because it gives me ideas on new things I can try out for fun. I think people forget that's what genshin is supposed to be… fun. Not a pissing contest.
I get HURAY every time i coop with Bennett… while people fight to use their Diluc 😂. I missed you DK… awesome topic to touch the heart of the community
I wanna see your thoughts on Xiaaaao
keep doing you i love your videos and seeing you experiment with diffrent teams characters and artifacts sets it’s boring seeing most ppl using the same boring build of one hit enemies
also yea 4 stars are super underrated ppl are allergic to all of them except bennett it’s sad honestly
To be fair a lot of the drive to play particular characters comes from how much you like the character and their playstyle, but if a character is too strong, they are not fun to play for some players (I'm sure some people would be happy to have all the content be as easy as possible). Of course I'm pretty sure Ganyu is overpowered only if you use Amos's Bow, which is 5*, so generally speaking you have to try really hard to ruin the game for yourself. I also don't care about and didn't roll for Ganyu so I'm not personally invested and don't care if she gets buffed, nerfed or whatever, just saying there is a reason to want something nerfed in a PvE game.
ALSO, and maybe this helps highlight the grander problem with people claiming things are "best in slot," anyone telling you archaic petra or ANY mix using archaic petra is BIS for Ningguang, or better than Bolide, is plain wrong. Because of the way damage stacking works in the damage formula, Bolide is better, period. All types of bonus stack additively, not multiplicatively, with bonuses of the same type, so the 2-piece bonus from Archaic Petra, after stacking it with Ning's base geo bonus at 80/90, the 12% from passing through the Jade Screen and the 46.6% from a geo bonus goblet, is only about an 8.2% damage increase. On most characters in general atk% bonuses, after accounting for run-of-the-mill 5* artifacts, only add about 40% of the amount they display (so that Gladiator's bonus is really overrated as well), because most characters end up with about the same amount of attack bonus (flat 311 from feather which is usually equivalent to about 40%, 46.6% from cup and about 20-30% from artifact subs) before buffs from the weapon, artifact sets, resonance, party members' weapons/abilities, etc. Noblesse seems attractive on Ning because she can use her ult so often (and potentially get 100% uptime on the 4pc bonus as well), but since her ult only accounts for about 1/3 of her damage if you use it perfectly (less if you don't, and even less still if you have her at C6 since the extra 7-jade charged attack doesn't count as part of her ult) it is only adding about 6.6% damage to her OVERALL, assuming you can always ult as soon as it comes off cooldown. Meanwhile, Bolide gives you a DMG% bonus, which is one of the rarest types of bonus, and it gives you a FAT 40%, at that. This bonus applies to EVERY single damage number she generates, and because it's so rare, nothing is really stacking with it to diminish your returns- If you have geo resonance, you get a 15% DMG bonus from shields to begin with, and that's about it.
Harbinger of Dawn on Albedo is also a meme pick. It's one of the best 3* weapons in general but it's outclassed by several 4* weapons and all 5* weapons. That's the real problem with a lot of communities talking about metagame, is people see that something has a synergy with something else, and without thoroughly investigating the alternatives, they assume they have happened upon some way to cheat the system that makes something "best in slot" when really it is not. I've seen that so much in the main community I've participated in with a big meta scene, the Monster Hunter community, where for instance every single game people get in a tizzy about how overpowered Gunlance is this time around because there are new ways to stack damage on it, and every single time, it ends up performing worse than most if not all other weapons in speedruns because it is simply the weakest weapon. What people mean is that something is "surprisingly good," or "better than they expected" in other words, in Harbinger's case because it's 3* and Kaeya even gives you a free one so you'd expect it to be bad, but it is not actually "best in slot."
Anyway, hope you're still enjoying the game even if you aren't making videos about it. It would sure be nice if they'd release more 4*s.
U guys all know Tectone right? He is such a weird guy and also his lame ass community, he is like the definition of competitive and "build this build that or else your trash" he once got on an account of a subscriber of hin and literally called her account "worst account ever" because she just had some artifacts on her Charakters that many people think "wtf were u thinking" well she is AR 53 I think and she enjoys the game and made it that far. And He also calls Charakters trash that aren't in his opinion doing the most outrageous damage. That dude is insane, also made a whole ass video about the new 4* character Rosaria because he was super mad that Mihoyo made her boobs a tiny bit smaller. And also gets angry about male characters when they have a nice design and say it's wasted and would be better on a female character. Insane.
