We basically busting mihoyo cuz they learned from them past mistake gg
What happens cz of ittos powercreep? I Don't care! Fock geo!
For me Itto is so far the best character. Why? First, huge def scaling, you probably have a lot of def artifs already, you can use that for him while farming for the husk set. 2nd, geo, no elemental reaction needed, the least is you only need him, he can solo, easy peasy. 3rd, he swings claymore fast, if you hated claymore because their attacks are slow even tho the damage is great, you'll love itto. 4th, his stacking kit is awesome, you don't need to care about stamina to do high damaged charge attacks. 5th, because geo +other element = crystallize, you get endless shield. Nonstop bonks at its finest. Ofc he has some negatives too but he is so far my fav
my dps were xiao and razor(they don't generate particles during burst), and omg i shook how ushi generates particles during itto's burst plus ushi hits like a cow xD
yes itto's kit is good, easily collect stacks which will consume no stamina and it takes long time before the stacks disappear.. ushi taunts, generates energy, hits hard, give stacks even itto's is not on the field and cute
Yeah, I agree and this is how MHY are probably going to continue balancing their characters, due to the effort/currency each unit requires from both ends. However, I think Itto is easily one of the best designed units in the game. Itto can both be played as just a bonker, but he also has a heap of complexity in his kit with balancing his stacks and his optimal combos allowing you to maximise on his damage. These characters with a low skill ceiling and high skill floor are so important, especially here where genshin has both extremely casual players and TCers alike.
I wanted both shenhe and itto and was scared of picking up itto
But no regrets. Itto is a really fun character
Yeah agreed , they're hitting for approximately the same number, they're all still good Chara !
I don't think they intentionally power creeped its just that since hes geo they made him much stronger cuz he has to be able to compete with elemental reactions since he doesnt have any
Klee is probably the character that got hit worst by utility creep
Agree with you Walruss… Itto isn't a powercreep, he just has cohesive kit and easier to use. I don't think Xiao need new artifact/weapon but he need his kit to be fix a little. Like I would be happier if he has super-armor on his burst so that he can't be easily interupted while plunging. And his E is just uuuh… need fixing, sometimes it doesn't deal damage which frustrate me a lot.
Edit : In fact, I want mihoyo to fix Geo reaction more.
And simplifying Utility Creep is still Power Creep , the game wont do character fixes and keep making new characters wirh "Utility Creep" den is still Power Creep .
Idk man he only feal stronger tha xiao razor and noelle out of whome 2 r 4*. Eula can still drop 200k q as f2p. Utility is powercreep. Why do u think venti baal zl ganyu kazu benny xq xl r in top meta they got better utility. Venti can suck all small mobs. Baal givs er with big pp dmg zl lets u facetank hits and so on
If you think there is no power creep you are mistaken. Keep in mind Mihoyo has been very clever about it. Most of the whales 🐳 are seeing it because it’s in the constellations. My c6 itto stomps my c6 xiao so hard it’s upsetting. …… and my xiao has had a year of off and on farming and a r3 pjws triple crown. Itto I have yet to even properly build and I got r1 of his weapon no crowns yet. The ease of use is just the start. They are clever
Look mom im in a video
I’m glad that everyone is talking about Xiao and how he’s getting power crept when my Xiao is still wrecking havoc in the abyss at c0. I can’t imagine what will happen if they give us a dedicated support that increases Anemo dmg or something similar to c4 Jean.
itto doesnt powercreep anybody. he’s well balanced, and getting better with hyperinvest and expensive supports (zhongli, albedo)
Geo has no dedicated 5 stars dps before. So Itto isn't powercreeping anyone.
New characters outperforming old ones in one way or another is inevitable and a common occurence in most Gacha games. This could be alleviated by carefully and incrementally reworking some of the older characters in an attempt to fix them or make them more relevant (as seen in FGO). Problem is from what we've seen so far I'm not sure miHoYo are willing to do that at all…
I disagree with not considering quality of life as not power creep since if we compare chunkiness of past characters and how this affects them greatly for example yanfei having a more up to date animation for her catalyst compared to ninggauang's clunky normals and charged that need animation cancelling. In the end this does affect their damage and makes it an easier margin for us casuals and mobile players. I do understand the rest of your point tho.
I find many things wrong with your points Walrus. I believe plunging down and two charges of E skill that does a lot of damage and generates particles Id consider much more easier than itto.
I wish I could had him but I’m saving for ganyu, he isnt power creep since he has his own artifact set, weapon and I find xiao and itto really similar and so he is the kind of characters I enjoy playing
I see your chat Rickrolling
This man has trivialized so many things! A perfect unit at just c0. Insane dmg. No need for reactions 😭😭 the very best. Easy abyss clears
Tsing chawng ding dong hit stone cold ayyiiiee
-the rock
MiHoYo has the habit of making under hype character pretty strong I would say.. ppl skipping kazoohoo be crying right now, people skipping kokomi also kind of sad right now after she has her artifact.. people skipping eula/albedo before now pulling like crazy in her rerun… and now it's the same for itto, he's overshadowing by ayato, AND shenhe.. people already skipping him to pull for them.. according to "leak" ganyu also got a buff that make her burst duration is the same as her CD.. so it's no surprise if they buff itto charge attack to not cost stamina
but keep in mind that Geo and Anemo dps were never that "relevant" in terms of meta. sure Itto is relevant now because of the current Abyss rotations, but few patches down the line and we'll return to the old boring Vape-Melt-Freeze meta
what does he say in the intro? sup sup flappers?
Why is everybody getting on xiao how he’s not viable these day. Are you kidding me? Is it because he’s banner might be next? Xiao is still one of the strongest dps in the game. His best team is zhongli and albedo.If anything hu tao was the most affected because of corrosion against wolfhound. I have no problem clearing abyss with xiao on either floor. Sure floor 12 favor electro and geo but we’ll have new floor soon. If newer unit need cater artifacts and niche support to perform as good as old unit how is that better? I’m sure xiao will get his support and weapon later down the line when there’s another dps increase
I think powercreep will keep happening. Also, I would like to point out that Dendro could be a broken element based off characters…
Character powercreep are are minimal, mostly some resent character are just slightly smoother to play then some older characters
plus Xiao doesn't have an actual full 4pcs set for him, meaning he still has a chance to improve his dps by a lot compared to itto that has a proper set and an actual support
but weapon powercreep is more noticeable where crit rate starts on new 5 star r1 weapon are stats stick,
Even the f2p 4 star weapons are powercreep
the catch on xiangling is better than skyward spine and still competitive with other 5 star weapon on her
The recently f2p event weapon for albedo is better than the alternative harbinger of dawn and other five stars in most situation which is are powercreep
Well even if beat her in that alway have nuke hu tao
Mean… they plan to add more high level monster in open world map soon right?….right?
//…save for Yae
I just like to bonk everything and no loss hp in the ulti that THAT is awesome the descrese of def of itto doesn't exist because … you know…. zhongli, but still love my xiao
Utility-creep is indeed different from power-creep. But how people view those two terms can significantly affect a unit's rating
Itto is only strong today because of the current abyss.
If itto is still strong when the abyss is rotated then he is definitely a power creep character.
(No geo related buffs and no enemies is weak to geo)
Dont powercreep already in the game since ganyu release?
Now I'm waiting for a pure Anemo damage support
Thinking about it itto has his weakness due to the geo element but the weapon and the artifact set specially tailored for him made him Hella stronk
Powecreeping doesn't even matter in Genshin Impact cause the hardest content right now is literally the Spiral Abyss.Just have fun with any character you love.Just enjoy the game with your favorite character.That is my opinion.
I'm not worried about the Powercreep drama cause a lot of my characters doesn't fully built yet.I'm happy to be able finish floor 12-3 for the first time soon.
I love that Itto can hold his own as a dps and I don't need a 36 step guide to use his attacks 🤣 Itto is for players like me who simply cannot grasp the minutiae of jump cancelling and tight timings. I smash until the golden wolf appears and then I hold to smash harder. Lots of fun and simple to achieve. I'm also loving how Itto, Gorou and Albedo battery each other for me. I'm sticking with this as my other team for the more challenging content and saving for Zhongli. Once I get him, I'll consider Kazuha as I played him in the new event and he is also lots of fun. I can see how people can prefer him over Venti for certain situations. I still want Ganyu, but she is not essential to either team 🤔
This feels like stirring up drama even tho there isn’t one?
Geo needs to be more powerful sure to lack of reaction.
Let's not forget this is a PvE game. Balance and power creep doesn't matter. As long as the past A and S tier characters are able to continue to finish content with reasonable difficulty. Regardless even if we need new characters, there are plenty of free gems month.
I really like how they made itto's kit , i love him so much as well as he is sooo fun to play .. as for goes to xiao i like both of them , they both are my fav character and they are so similar but really they made xiao so dirty with his cons .
Is he that good tho? Compared to eula is he better?
lucky i did'nt lose 50/50 on itto
