Omg her E is so cool! That alone might make me pull for her as long as her utility is on par with Xingqiu!

Decided to do a few pulls on Ayato's banner because I'm depressed at the thought of having to wait for more than 3 months for Kazuha's rerun. Ended up getting Ayato within 20 pulls of my last 5* (C2 Raiden).

I liked his play style during the trial so I'm quite happy with that but now I need to farm literally everything from the hydro boss to the talent domain and those damned sakura blooms.

woah congrats on your Ayato ~
I hope you enjoy him! He's super fun! Hopefully Kazuha can come back soon. It really seems like they want to put off his re-run until the last possible moment.
How did your C2 Raiden pulls go? Did you lose a lot of 50-50's? I was considering getting some Raiden cons but I wanted Ayato more

I almost caved and rolled for her on the final day of her banner

​

The more kit leaks I see of her the more I want her. But Yoimiya is coming back next patch too & I've already pre-farmed for her
I guess I'll get Yelan during her re-run for my hydro collection

Just got Ayato.

Everything seems to be pointing out at his rerun being during the patch right before version 3.0 so there's quite a while to go. I think I'm going to stop pulling until his banner drops since there's always the chance I lose the 50-50 so I need to save as much as I can.

How did your C2 Raiden pulls go? Did you lose a lot of 50-50's?

Got her C1 around 71 or 72 pulls after my last 5* which was C4 Keqing (I can't believe one of the 5* units I never use is at C4 lol) and then got her C2 around 67 pulls after that. So it wasn't great but I guess the one positive is that I didn't lose the 50-50 between her C1 and C2 as well as when I was going for Ayato.

I know the feeling, I have a C4 Mona and have absolutely no use for her since I use TotM Kokomi as my freeze support & Diluc is stuck at C3 where I only levelled him for the free fates.
Oh that's pretty nice. Even if it was soft pity
I have a feeling I'm going to get shafted soon by the event banner bc of how lucky my Ayato pulls went. I'm at the point where there's not really any characters that I'm really looking forward to aside from Yoimiya's re-run & Baizhu, who likely won't drop until like... mid to late Sumeru at the earliest.

Considering just pulling for cons of characters I already enjoy instead of going for new characters that I'll need to farm for months just to level up (not to mention the artifact RNG). I guess I'll just go for Yoi and wait to see if any of the Sumeru characters interest me before making any decisons though

 

[Polaris_Tae]

yepyep, I think I'm finally finished with my Kazu build now
It took months just to grind out enough diligence books -- bc I keep getting sidetracked by new characters -- but I think it was worth it. Got enough for the final gold talent book today from the parametric transformer

He's sitting on just under 800 EM. All I need is an EM mainstat VV circlet and he'll oficially be complete!
But I still hate that domain and refuse to farm VV until they finally decide to add it to the strongbox now that Maiden's has become obselete for pretty much every healer in the game. I shall be farming the Echoes domain instead for Xiao & Ayato upgrades!

 

[Polaris_Tae]

C2 Yae havers no longer get to feel like they wasted 200 dollars
Good on them for aknowledging the issue though. Hopefully they can figure out a better way to fix her targeting though. Yae is like Oz with campfires but on steroids. Looking forward to more freemogems for my Yoimiya/Baizhu savings fund

 

[Polaris_Tae]

C6 Amber came home today
I guess It's time to try out VV vape Tao finally

 

[Polaris_Tae]

C6 Barbara finally came home today from my free Battlepass pulls. Now I'm only missing Razor (+Kaeya/Lisa) from the OG 4-stars Razor re-run when...
TIL that Barbara's revive doesn't work in co-op. Well that's depressing. I guess it's time to start working on her for my second abyss team. She can have Kokomi''s old set. I have a maidens feather for her with over 28% HP.
healers >>>>> shielders for me (unless I'm playing Xiao or Hu Tao ofc)

congrat teapot

 

[Polaris_Tae]

I didn't think it was possible but Genshin has officially made me hate Theatre Mechanicus.
They removed all the good parts of the game and made it so tedious and annoying.
No co-op, no ability to fail the challenge, afaik towers can't be upgraded & it forces you to add only a certain number of elemental towers each.
How did they know that I was using the mono-electro strategy to AFK my way to winning these past two editions...


In other news, I've officially finished pre-farming for Yoimiya. So I guess it's back to suffering in the Echoes domain for another two months. idc if the echoes set is bugged. I need both artifact sets & I wouldn't mind getting some more +18% atk pieces for my Fischl/Keqing anyway

 

[zxcvbnm<>]

do you like the new canyon area teapot ? i havent been able to play for a while

 

[Polaris_Tae]

Just realized that I'm finally at a point in the game where I don't even need use Xiangling or Xingqiu anymore. My main teams are Xiao double geo, Ganyu freeze or Ayato hypercarry (w/ Bennett, Yunjin & Kazuha) so I have no need for them at the moment.
Also, I maybe got an early copy of Venti this week so I get to run anemo on both sides of abyss now.
The bad thing is I only have one full VV set & I'm still farming for Echoes & Vermillion, so they have to share for now ;-;
Praying for Yoimiya in 2.8 so I have time to save for her. pls let the Itto/Xiao re-run rumours be true

do you like the new canyon area teapot ? i havent been able to play for a while

yep, I've been enjoying it a lot so far. I'm avoiding doing it all just so I have some content to do at the end of the patch.
But the quests and exploration I have done has been pretty nice

Farming the new floating mushroom enemies bc I'm sure one of the first Sumeru characters is going to use them & It's better to be prepared for them just in case

 

[Polaris_Tae]

New sus Scara crumbs and scara lore drops all within a day of each other. I guess It's time to start saving again!

The final Irodori quest was really interesting. Looks like they're finally building up Kazuha lore after neglecting him in the story for the longest time
From the looks of it, it'll be a filler patch again for 2.7, so Kauha 2.8 confirmed

I'm thinking of skipping the dendro archon for a certain harbringer & a pharmacist owner. Hoping she gets a re-run just as fast as raiden did.

Spoiler: sus leaks

in case OP gets deleted:
If the company schedule is not affected by Covid situation in Shanghai, new 3.1 weekly boss is Scaramouche

 

[Polaris_Tae]

RIP Mistsplitter pullers

Looks like the teapot event got delayed/cancelled
