So About Baizhu... [Genshin Impact Spells Only]

  • Spells only is back yet again, and Baizhu's banner is about to end. However, even though Baizhu is a catalyst character, I make a decision regarding our pulls that I hopefully won't regret later
    This is inspired by my own Swords Only playthrough we currently have running on the channel. That account is at a point where we just need to farm domains to further build characters, so with plenty of catalyst-wielding characters on the horizon, it's time to begin this journey as well.

    I'm seeing a lot of people claiming that my decision of who to pull or not pull for on MY account is "so frustrating" and "stupid". So allow me to explain my reasoning even more in depth so maybe you understand better.
    My plan is to have a hyperbloom team (Nahida, Yae Miko, Kokomi, Mona/Lisa) and then a second team using Heizou, Klee, Yanfei, Barbara. (Assuming a new catalyst characters doesn't come out who fills one of those roles better).
    On the hyperbloom side, Nahida provides amazing dendro application, and Yae Miko obviously introduces the electro we need. That means we just need hydro. Koko would be the best option for this, as she's the catalyst character with the longest on-field skill that applies hydro. We then will swap between our hydro and electro characters to keep proccing the hyperbloom. If I ran Baizhu on this team, it wouldn't add any value to the desired hyperbloom, since we already have Nahida for the dendro application, and we'd have Kokomi if we needed heals.
    That brings us to the other team. As stated int he video, dendro and anemo do not react together, so the best we could do with a Baizhu there is a burn comp, but I can't say it's my favorite reaction. Plus if we are using Heizou, then Barbara actually pairs nicely as we can get some hydro application as we run around hitting enemies, thus allowing us to swirl.
    So in both teams, I don't see myself needing to use Baizhu. It doesn't have to do with "meta" or "only liking female characters" or any other accusation I've seen tossed around in the comments. If anything, another big factor is that he would require me to once again complete Nahida's first and second story quests again. Not to say I never will, but since I'm juggling 3 accounts, it's not something I'm eager to undertake.
    Was I ever a huge fan of Baizhu's design? No, not really. But if I felt he could fit into one of our planned teams, I 100% would have pulled for him. I also don't see the need to pull just to "make a video out of it". I don't play on all my accounts every day, so building up another primo supply for future pulls is no easy task.
    And at the end of the day, it is MY account. If you like Baizhu, pull for him on your account. I do what I feel will be best for me and my account(s), and I would rather save my primogems for a guaranteed Kokomi when she gets a rerun.
    So yeah. But at least our Barbara is usable now :)

      Running aggravate in catalyst abyss would actually be a pain, since with the character options he has, there's barely any combinations that will make an optimal team where nobody's potentials are wasted. Add a hydro and they will start blooming instead of aggravating. Add a non hydro and your options become limited to on field DPS or a Lisa/Baizhu/Nahida/Yae team...which might like, work I guess, but it's a lot of effort for something that might not bring out those results

    Since I've Nahida, I felt no reason to pull for any other dendro character specifically since she applies enough Dendro for my team. Plus, I use Dendro Traveler consistently as well so that solves my various dendro teams easily (alongside having a few other Dendro 4 stars/Tighnari). I understand why not pulling for Baizhu is what Java would go with. That said, Baizhu's healing is pretty good so if you're ever lacking a better Dendro healer, I pulling for Baizhu in the future would be a good idea. ♡

    Well...Coming from current Baizhu main... In my opinion... The trial run did him dirty... He Is pretty much insane healer for my team. After getting him He replaced Zhongli in my team. But if you ever want try some Fun thing... Baizhu with Yanfei Is crazy. Since Baizhu Is buffing burning reaction based on his HP and his dendro application with his Burst Is... Not as good as Nahida but still decent. And enough for lots of things.
    Kokomi And Baizhu... Both Are great And good in their specific things.
    Baizhu Is amazing with his teamwide heal on E And with prototype Amber he can heal whole team on his Q too. Other thing Is being flexible on dendro application and not being tied to place.
    Meanwhile Kokomi is bit more consistent with lower heal for longer time with teamwide healing on her Q it require her to stay on field but thanks to her dmg not being nothing like Baizhu (mine Is on lvl 8 normal attack on healer build about 500 without reaction).
    The choice Is still yours but I hope you can look bit more into how Baizhu work because comparing him with Kokomi... I don't like it because even through they are both healers their usage and gameplay Is completely different.

    But it is understandable in terms of meta and spiral abyss. Even for me (*I played for almost 2 years) these spiral abysses have a lot of HP pools and what makes it worse, sometimes they're separated all over the map and have a time where we couldn't hit it (like aeonblight, and Sumeru' PMA).

    This series is all about the grind of overcoming the difficulty of using characters of a specific kind. In order to achieve the highest potential for success, min-maxing by saving your pulls for the best catalyst characters only makes sense. It’s already enough of a challenge without being forced to wish for characters that will not help your account make the most progress. There never was a rule that he needed to get every catalyst character. Pressuring Java because you favor certain characters is cringe. It’s ultimately his strategy and choice, not yours. And Kokomi absolutely pops off on hyperbloom teams!

    I feel like ive seen people talk about replacing barbara with baizhu (so Yae, Nahida, Koko and Baizhu) but people are failing to remember that you can overproduce blooms. Only a set amount of blooms/hyperblooms can damage an enemy at any one time, so you're better off having more electro and hydro production, making more of an electrocharge-hyperbloom hybrid. To summarise: Java is doing the right thing for his account

    • @PepiiChu

      @PepiiChu exactly! Like honestly if you have nahida and you're feeling like you're lacking in dendro application, she's an excellent driver. Swapping a but between her and Yae (when their ICD is still in cooldown for example) would do just fine, at least until he has enough characters to fill out the more important slots like Kokomi and has the primos to waste on characters like Baizhu that have less value for this specific account

    Well… I understand your logic, but I think most of us watch the challenge to see you collect all of the characters of the weapon type. Your own rule was if they’re a catalyst, you pull for them. Of course nobody can force you to like a character, but it seems a bit counterintuitive to the challenge since characters will continue to be released who may synergize well with characters you neglect to pull.
