  1. probably one of the characters I was waiting for most of all in Genshin Impact both for the lore and for her character, after seeing her in some images I wanted to pull her 100% until I read her kit… In my humble opinion this is the biggest waste of design in the entire history of Genshin Impact.

    I've never said it but this time I hope Cloud Retainer makes little money, they must understand that exploiting a good design to easily sell a mediocre character is wrong.
    Me and especially the community wants quality characters, this it's an insult to their intelligence.

  2. IMO, buffs to specific types of attacks like normal/charged/plunged/skill/ultimate should be something done on relic sets, not on character kits.

    You try putting it on a character and you end up with a yun jin or shenhe, and those characters see pretty much no use at all in most endgame situations.

  3. You said it bro, I thought she would be a good upgrade in Ayaka freeze for Jean cause of her grouping. But now, she is just not worth pulling.
    Have you done any calculation regarding Hutao? How much better can she make a Hutao, Furina, Yelan, swap Jean team?

  4. Honestly while I get that some people are disappointed im excited. I like the idea of trying iut a whole new plunge attack style with different characters, seeing what can happen. I tend to like niche options, and i think she'll provide plenty of fun in her own way. She won't be a new meta defining character but I still think she'll be good fun!

  5. Hoyoverse releases a subpar half baked character
    Most Genshin community: i still love the design and will definitely pull!

    So tell me, why would hoyoverse even try to make a good character anymore? Since whatever they do, the stans would eat it up. So in terms of business, why improve?

  6. I really don't get the weapon ranking her signature aside how is oathsworn worst than fav and atlas
    Fav have less base attack and same amount of er cuz how are you gona proc fav if you're building atk and er in the substats and if you use a crit circle then it's just even worst
    For atlas good luck getting 200 er

  7. Hoyo is THE WORST company for ruining the greatest character like her by doing this kit for her..Like how could they do this??? Why make her not just a support but a support unusable for so many dps characters, Such a waste such a dissapointment

    Reply
  8. I have no clue why people are so obsessed with her grouping
    It was trash to begin with, she could only pull small enemy’s in a very limited radius
    Losing this ability will not make her “that worse” to doom post, she is still an extremely great support for Xiao, Hu Tao, Wriothesley, Gaming and Diluc, which is a great pull of characters.

    Shen He litterally was made to support 1 character, and no one was complaining about that

  9. finally someone who pointed out the fact xianyun can take benney's buff to increase her atk as well.. that's why her teams are not so easy to define and they depend a lot on rotation/swtiching
    it seems the next xiao's team is without benney, with faruzan and furina.. but did they consider how benney can buff xianyun first?
