by



In this video we discuss whether Ganyu is worth pulling on her rerun in Patch 2.4. Ganyu has been one of the top meta characters since her release, but also comes with a number of downsides including specific team comps that are required to maximize her DPS.

  5. 🌸❤️I would say that I know excitement abounds with the announcement of such scrumptious banners betwixt 2.4 and Yae Miko’s expected launch window, but I would caution free to play, not to pass up Ganyu or Zhongli.

    It must be said, think not with the proverbial “new toy mentality”, but with clear objective outlook upon who would yield more value to one’s account.

    These two units are universal and Yae Miko is an unknown element (who knows how her kit may change before release or how she shall actually play)🌹❤️🌸

  7. The thing about people calling Ganyu, Cryo Amber, is a bit missunderstood, in my opinion. At face value, her kit looked really similar to Amber's: Skill that taunts, AoE-Duration Burst, bow user. What people DIDN'T know was the multiplier on her Charged shot Bloom. (Plus, she got stealth buffed on release – burst getting 100% uptime).

  8. i don't see shenhe's stacks consumption being a pros (frontloaded dmg) cause that basically just means the buff lasts for 1 hit. Imagine Shenhe buffs Ayaka, but u group mobs with venti, so the 1st hit of ayaka hit 5-7 mobs, so only the 1st hit gets the stacks buff. sounds really bad. it feels like shenhe is better suited for a burst shot Ganyu or Bloom shots Ganyu (cause at least they will receive the full bloom dmg even if stacks are eaten up). Shenhe could probably produce meta damage though, which is why Mihoyo put these limitations on her. But the question is whether it's worth the caveats.

  9. For my Morgana variant, I run: Ganyu main, Ayaka sub, Kokomi, Venti

    I'm unsure if Shenhe will contribute enough damage to make it so more of the damage is coming from Ganyu instead. I am still running 4p WT + Amos (50.1/226 for my crit stats before any buffs or Passives), and my Ayaka is using 2p Blizzard + 2p Glad because my strongest artifacts are mainly from Glad/WT without farming bosses for no reason

  11. It’s good to see you back! You were always one of the best Genshin content creators along with IWTL and OkCode. It was your Xingqiu guide that got me to invest in him and unleash his true potential.

    As for Ganyu, I’ve always wanted her. I lost the 50/50 for her the first time around and I’m tempted to pull for her again. I even have Amos’ Bow. The problem is that I really, really want Yae Miko and she’s coming out in 2.5.

    Decisions…

  16. I have a very well built Ganyu, but I'm missing Zhongli, Mona, Kokomi, and Kazuha… I'm going to see if Shenhe will be worth adding, but if not, I can finally grab Zhongli. Now if I could just get some bow billets from the weekly bosses :/

  17. Should I pull for ganyu or venti, I want a fun character that’s also strong with a good personality, But I don’t know who to pick, can someone please help me?

  20. I was primobroke during her first banner, but I'm more than ready this time around and have all her gear and mats pre-farmed. Best of luck to everyone going for Ganyu in 2.4!

  21. Ganyu is an amazing unit. Definitely my strongest and most flexible character with her Freeze and Melt comps. She’s always one of my carries in Abyss and pretty much hasn’t left my overworld team since her launch. Her damage is bonkers—it doesn’t hurt that I was lucky enough to get Amos Bow from a YOLO 10-pull during her banner lol, but I’ve played with other Ganyus in co-op who were running F2P weapons and still dealing great damage. I know people can get tired of the aimed shots quite quickly, but I personally don’t mind it. I love Ganyu to bits and I’ve never once regretted pulling for her (although I can genuinely say that for every 5* I have). I would pull for her C1 if there weren’t so many other characters/reruns to look forward to.

    Good luck with your pulls, everybody! May all Ganyu wanters be Ganyu havers~

  23. Learned the hard way that fighting the rift doggies when you're running melt Ganyu instead of freeze Ganyu is absolute pain.

    Also you're back! Blessings and health for the New Year 🙂

  25. I don't need to choose anything since i've been waiting since eula banner.
    I have 3 different artifact set up ready for her all lv up mats etc etc… to and of course enough gems to guarantee her and yae miko

  27. imo ganyu strength right now is pretty much tied to her support. With the trend in abyss enemies only featuring 1-3 mobs per stage, u rly want Anemo unit that can deal damage, sadly sucrose cant cut it anymore even venti struggle. Same with hydro, kokomi/mona is mandatory. But with kokomi u trade off damage for more applications, which put more burden on ur Anemo/cryo support to deal extra damage.

    unless its ur waifu or u rly like their gameplay, i think only pull Old DpS if u have their complete bis team.

  32. thing with the wanderers troupe is that you can get it from alchemy in a 3 to 1 trade with other 5*´s
    it may be not the most efficient thing but you can get save wanderers troupe 5* artifacts which helps with farming

  33. I was lucky enough to pull Gun Yuu last year, and she is a huge help to me as low spender. The thing is, when you build 4-star characters, they tend to perform much better with constellations. As for Ganyu, she does not require anything at all to function properly right out of the box. The prototype bow is the first thing you will craft anyway, and the Wanderer Troupe set is literally everywhere if you stay at AR 35 for a few weeks (which I recommend you do).
    The only downside is that now we have a lot of super-tanky enemies, some of which I feel like were added specifically to hinder her performance (like Spectres with their homing attacks or these annoying geo-shockwaves).

  40. I really like Ganyu but I have no 5* and I feel like my team will be more benefited my Zhongli
    Ganyu will probably take longer to rerun if I were to go with Zhongli
    Should I still summon for her?
