  1. I'm a Keqing main from the beginning & I must say that I'm quite surprised to see how far I have came considering how bad she is in general. But I don't know, I just love her.
    Many characters have outDPSd her but they are not as interesting to play. Xiao, Ganyu & Hutao seem boring to me. But hey, to each their own Genshin.

    It's likely a Root Motion artifact. When you retarget an animation for a different rig it will also scale the motion accordingly. Judging by miHoYo's particular reuse cases they probably animate everything at a medium size and then retarget the animations as needed for larger/smaller rigs.

    Female Teen is probably the "standard dash" and the size of that dash just gets adjusted based on the scaling difference between rigs.

  3. Keqing was my first five star after losing 50/50 on Kazuha’s banner and I’ve mained her ever since. I’m one of the fans of infused weapons then charged attacks but the it’s sad how many functions there are that have decreased her dmg and play style value.

    My hu Tao can can easily do more dmg than keqing not fully built (tho I still need better artifacts for both of them) but she does have quite good physical dmg boosters if you put go that way.

  4. I feel like she's great for putting electro on, and overall the overloaded reaction. Due to having insane luck in wanderer's troupe, my yoimiya does a lot more damage, but it's still very useful to pair up keqing with burst yoimiya build, as it's not only consistent electro, but also pyro explosions every 2 seconds.
    Yeah, that about it, no idea what other characters she's good with as I just use the ones I like and discover some good strategies. Tho in my opinion, using keqing with yoimiya is very fun
    Well, some other thoughts:
    I feel like it's the most annoying thing that her burst's final slash can simply miss, just becuase you were not looking the right way. I don't think I'm psychically able to focus about it so much to just look the right way just for it to even hit.
    I fell in love with keqing because I love characters that do damage fast ( kinda weird I never bothered to pick up any polearm users), which was a new way to play considering my main from the start until then was electro fischl. I can honestly see that keqing doesn't do that bad, but even with what shouldn't be that bad artifacts, even my yoimiya easily outperforms her, not even talking about 5* like hu tao or ganyu.

  5. Genshin retards be like: You criticise a character you must die

    Some mistakes in the video
    Keqing does not have fastest electro application
    That honour goes to Lisa.
    Keqing charge attacks could be better than Diluc if Mihoyo remove knock back and reduce charge attack cost to 20.
    When she has stamina she will easily surpass Diluc but consistency is what ruins it for her.
    Poor keqing.

  6. I use her a decent amount just depends, if its a new area and i'm trying to 100% crap on the map its usually akaya, kazuha, sayu, keqing and she was always apart of the exploring team prior to ayaka, kazuha, sayu, also have her built too. All she'd really need is an artifact set designed for her, or even her own weapon, etc. To really shape her up to do the damage people want.

  7. As a Keqing haver this video is so true 😭 She was my first 5 star and I've been using her for a good while now. I can say that having like no stamina most of the time is sooooo annoying Diona is working over time frfr

  8. Keqing is my favourite dps….her gamplay style is fast and you can incorporate her in every team composition.
    But yeh, she is too weak for spiral abyss.
    So I use her for almost anything else.
    Hoping for a buff…

  9. she's been my main for almost a year (AR12-AR56) and i'm still not tired of her INSANELY fun playstyle (even though i get tired of other character playstyles pretty easily), and i'm very satisfied with her damage output. i don't care about getting 40k+ damage in one hit at all, i feel like my keqing does high damage relative to my own standards and that's enough for me. she carried me through everything, including abyss, and her teleport abilities are so so helpful for various combat strategies and being able to avoid various annoying elements of combat (enemies on top of structures, airborne enemies w/ no bow user in party, plunge attacks, etc. etc.).

  10. I am a keqing simp and i love to user her, people makes me sad… Well my first main is razor and i was using beidou and fischl too, the first characters i was using all all electro so electro is my favourite element. and i am simp for keqing to and i am using her, she is pretty good to use with my hu tao too.

  11. It's a bit of a shame that she's lacking a true damage-enhancing elemental reaction. Overloaded is still a janky reaction for melee characters to consistently utilize, and electrocharged works well in very big groups, but is a little too unimpactful with fewer enemies. They designed her skills to be very tactile and mobile, she feels really good to control and is probably the best character in the game in terms of combat mobility options with her stiletto, her final hit in her melee combo, her charged attack pushing her backwards, and her burst iframes, all of which can be chained seamlessly. I completely understand why she has die-hard fans, and she's perfectly usable in all content, but her kit is a victim of circumstance in that she has to compete with characters that can do 20x the damage she can because of the elemental reaction system and how crits work.
