I'm personally saving up the few wishes I have for the standard banner just to see if they make any changes to it soon (though knowing my luck, I'll probably still get C3 Keqing as the 5*)

Imo, the login event rewards are quite underwhelming for what will be the anniversary patch. Mystic Enhancement Ores are so easy to stock up on (I have over 3000 of them and that's after I already got Mitsplitter to lvl 90. I don't even farm for the ores anymore because I don't get much time to play. You can also get 200k Mora + 20 Hero's Wit for just 4800 realm currency every week from the Realm Depot in the teapot. The 10 Intertwined Fates are nice though, that I admit, but they could have at least added in something worth more than the other stuff. For instance, Fragile Resin.

Waiting for them to add Albedo to standard.

My Celcelia's are gathering dust in my inventory waiting for him to return.

lol, I hope you're able to dodge Keqing cons for your next 5-star. The only new Keq con that I'd really want is C6, like the skill upgrade would be pretty decent as my Keq can get up to around 16K on a mono-electro comp w/ just Kazuha & her infusion, but C6 is the only con that gives a measurable improvement, but even then it's still kind of meh.

I've been farming wits and mora all day bc I already have weapon mats for the Mistsplitter, and almost all the other weapons I'm levelling take the chains (RIP my resin). I'll be farming the Narukami's all day tomorrow though bc Sara needs me to level the Hamayumi bow for her.

I was expecting Mihoyo to give us a 10-pull for the anniversary event, and that's exactly what we'll be getting. Though I'd expect some more news re: anniversary rewards to drop soon. I'm honestly excited for the rumoured Keqing skin than the login stuff rn. I'm definitely swiping for that if it's true, I've been maining her since April so it's a must-get item at this point.

Mystic Enhancement Ores are so easy to stock up on (I have over 3000 of them and that's after I already got Mitsplitter to lvl 90.

I'm in dire need of mystic enhancement ores. I farm crystals almost every day to craft them and they're gone within a day.

The fact that the weapon only increases by one or two levels max is also just so sad. I'm levelling Mistsplitter to 80 (possibly 90), but then I'm also working on Diona's Sac Bow, Xingqiu's Sac Sword, Sara's Hamayumi & the Skyward Spine for Baal.

Though I did spend the last month getting three weapons to lvl 80 & one weapon to lvl 90, so that's likely why I'm running low on crystal ores. I refuse to touch the scam that is the ore bundles in the gift shop with my Welkin allocated crystals. The only thing I would touch in the gift shop is the talent book bundles.

Mistsplitter has priority ofc but I've had to delay levelling my supports for months bc of all the DPS weapons I got recently. I only just got Kazuha's weapon to 80 last week.

Yup I'm really just hoping for that to happen even though there's no guarantee about it and it's all just speculations. A re-run banner for him would also be ideal since we can get him a lot easier that way instead of hoping for the slim chances that he's the one you get when losing 50/50 on limited or getting a 5* from standard.

but C6 is the only con that gives a measurable improvement, but even then it's still kind of meh

Yeah Keqing's constellations are just so underwhelming. I'm surprised she hasn't received any sort of buffs considering how she has one of the most hardcore fanbases especially in China.

I was expecting Mihoyo to give us a 10-pull for the anniversary event, and that's exactly what we'll be getting. Though I'd expect some more news re: anniversary rewards to drop soon.

Thinking about it more, I guess my expectations are just too high. Most Gacha games aren't really generous until much later into their life and there's no way the 1st anniversary event/rewards would be that huge of a jump compared to Lantern Rite that literally happened during Chinese New Year. Though I'm still hoping we get a few more surprised. I'd honestly be happy with any of: revamp to the standard banner, free 1600 primogems on the anniversary day, ability to purchase an item that can be redeemed into a constellation for any 5* unit you own. The last one is definitely the most copium wish lol.

I'm in dire need of mystic enhancement ores. I farm crystals almost every day to craft them and they're gone within a day.

Hmm, I guess you just have a lot more weapons than me then because of rolling on the weapons banner. My only 90/90 weapons are the three 5* ones I own and the 4* Dodoco Tales then I have fifteen 4* weapons at 80/80, five at 70/70 and then the rest have zero investment. I only started farming for Crystal Chunks around the time that the Parametric Transformer was added to the game since I would just feed it with a combination of the otherwise useless (to me) Magical Crystal Chunks and Mint.

Well, that's an instant skip for me. I already have Diona and Xinyan at C6, the latter of whom I never, ever use and I only have her at C6 because I lost the 50/50 during Zhongli's original banner. I'm definitely still salty about that because it's the reason why I wasn't able to have enough funds to get Albedo before his banner ended. Sayu seems decent but I have enough healers and I don't think she'll fit any of my teams better than what I currently have so I'm not overly eager to roll just to get her. Then there's Yoimiya. I absolutely love her story character and both her JP & EN VAs are among my favourite in Genshin, but her kit doesn't appeal to me and it feels like Mihoyo did her dirty just like the other Pyro Archer. I'd rather just continue saving up for Baal even though I'm already up to around 70 wishes already but I could always lose the 50/50 when pulling for her.

I honestly don't get why MHY have made Yoimiya's banner so underwhelming, especially when it's sandwiched between Ayaka's and Baal's. Wouldn't surprise me if this ends up being the second lowest sales for a limited banner, losing out only to Keqing's.


Praying for Amos Bow in the first 2.1 weapon banner! I might consider pulling for it then if I don't lose the 50/50 when going for Baal.

The most ideal situation, at least for me would be for them to add him to the standard banner. It'd be easier to get him on limited, but I likely wouldn't have a guarunteed saved for him if they re-run him.

After patch 2.1 I likely won't have any primos left bc I'm trying to go for both Kokomi & Baal. The only reason I'd skip Kkomi is if Scaramouche or Baizhu are in the following patch, which they most likely won't be. The only characters I'm rolling on post-Baal will be Thoma and maybe one other male 5-star from Inazuma. I need to replenish my Baizhu primo fund for when he eventually drops next year. Weapon banner treated me poorly for the first time this patch.

Hmm, I guess you just have a lot more weapons than me then because of rolling on the weapons banner.

I caved and rolled on the banner a few times. My luck has finally been drained though and I have enough weapons for all my characters but my bow users. Skyward Harp pls come home....

I only have like three weapons maxed out, the Aquila Favonia, Childe's Viridescient Hunt & The Black Sword. I will be taking a break from rolling for weapons now that I finally got that crit sword until Staff of Homa re-run. I'm considering rolling for Hu Tao's C2 once she returns and the only thing that I'll need for her is her weapon. (plus Zhongli ofc bc I suck at HP management). Hu Tao is probably one of my best built characters in terms of artifacts rn and is one of the few characters that I managed to get over 200% crit dmg on. All I need is a HP% wanderer's hourglass and she'll be perfect!

100% skip for me. I already have a decently built Diona at C6. and I don't want any more Xinyan cons anymore. I'm happy with her at C4. I'll wait for Sayu to drop on standard and will pull for Yoimiya during her re-run instead. I really like her and Beidou (or electro MC) as a pairing with constant overloads. It's just the ICD issues. I really hope MHY can fix that. It's one of the few things holding her back.

Skyward Blade was my first weapon from the Standard banner and I don't really want another copy of it at the moment either...

 

[Polaris_Tae]

w-wait... Does this mean a potential Noelle + Sucrose for Raiden Banner...

I have them both at C6. Oh well, if It's them then It'll mean there'll be more wishes for Sara cons
It 100% won't be Beidou on there bc there's no way they'd ever do a triple electro. maybe she'll be on Kkomi's banner instead
When will I ever get a C6 Beidou...
- - - - -
I'm only 10 silver books away from being able to 6-6-6 Baal once she drops. Two to three more book runs on Saturday (or some more chest hunting) and I'll finally be able to stop farming her books. I've been camping in that domain for two weeks straight.

What was that Sacred Sakura quest? I just finished it and it was so sad. Kazari

this is the most wretched annoying quest ever conceived in a game, every aspect of it including boss fight just makes me wanna quit lol

i like the treasure hunting event

 

[Polaris_Tae]

The standard banner is killing me right now. I hit soft pity and still no new 5-star. That's it, I give up. I'm not wishing again until 2.1. All I wanted was a bow for Childe and I really doubt that the standard banner would be that generous anyway. Time to prepare for getting my 3rd copy of Lost Prayer for Mona.

I also finally got my Mistsplitter to lvl 80 today which means I can focus on levelling the Hamayumi bow for Sara & Thoma's Dragon's Bane (pls keep him as a polearm user Mihoyo). I've decided to stop levelling most weapons once I hit 80 rn, since I have very few resources and too many weapons to level. I've been delaying levelling my Sac Sword for over three months now. It's still sitting at level 50 in my inventory.

I'm not going to farm any more artifacts until about a week before 2.1. I spent a whole day in the Electro domain only to get zero usable artifacts. It'll be talent books for Baal & Sara, weapon ascension mats, leylines & the occasional Cryo Hypostasis for Aloy. I'm seven silver books away from being able to 6-6-6 Baal once she finally releases.

It was so difficult. Especially the one under the ocean. I spent over an hour just trying to find out how to drain the water. So painful.
The story behind it was pretty interesting though.

When I say that I keep getting good luck with Wanderer's pieces. Andrius blessed me today. It all rolled really well in HP & Crit rate/dmg. Perfect for my Hu Tao who demands high HP. It would be better if it was HP% though. This piece puts her at over 220 crit dmg. Now I can replace the copium level pyro cup with this piece! I mean, it's not the best, but it means I can finally look for an off-set HP sands. Time to throw her ER hourglass over to Mona, Baal or Kaeya!


All I need is a HP% sands and she'll be perfect!

HP is good for Hu Tao. Her attacks scale off her max HP. It would've been nice if it was HP% though. Plus I plan on pulling her C2 during her re-run, which also scales off her max HP. I got zero DEF rolls thankfully.
High crits are pure luck adsjksjk
I think my highest crit roll is on a Bloodstained flower w/ about 29% crit dmg


I only keep the good pieces. anything with less than three decent substats goes in the trash.
