I personally don't think he's trash but he overlaps too much with Nahida in my opinion: every team he is into would be exactly as good as they are without him.
Actually people not calling him trash but easy to skip because he strong but don't bring anything new for dendro team that already exists + some people already have nahida/DMC and they want to go for yelan + xingqiu banner
@@danieliyandani3078 I'm going to disagree because Nahida is a support and alhaitham is a driver. I guess it depends on people's playstyles, but you can totally use him instead of nahida.

3 mirror uptime trick: Q-NA till the end of 2nd sword rain- instantly press E(as after second sword rain mirror disappears quickly)- NA for next 2 sword rain-wait for like .5 sec then do CA(on 2nd turn mirror stays for short duration after 4th sword rain, you need .5sec wait so it can disappear then only you get another mirror.) I was looking for this kinda info but couldn't find anywhere, hope it helps👍🏻.
Omg thank you. Been struggling his combo. Also, an instant 3 mirror trick without using the burst is by holding his E skill above the enemy and do a plunging attack. Then do the burst with 3 mirrors to maximize its potential.
@@elyssamae8205 there’s no need to aim the hold above the enemy just hold and plunge. I notice no matter how low he’s to the ground holding his E anywhere allows him to plunge.

I was waiting to see when zy0x refreshed his mirrors with a skill/CA so I wasn't paying attention to the wolf's hp so when the wolf died I audibly said "HUH"
@@CM_684 While you can use both in a team: alhaitham yao yao raiden xingqiu is an example, neither raiden or kuki are recommended in the spiral abyss for alhaitham. It's viable, but this is neither the comfortable team nor does it offer the highest possible dmg for alhaitham.
This still feels so surreal. After so much anticipation, uncertainty that he’ll be playable and excitement over any small appearance or mention of him since he was first introduced, he is finally here. I’m so happy I was here to experience the build up and release of the most ant
Yeah I only have him at level 70 with talents at 4 and he's doing some good damage. Using Black Sword R5 plus Nahida in his team and he puts in work already. Best guy character in a long time. Not since Zhongli have we gotten such a stud.
shaft finally he came and so did we all. anyways i might actually pull for him after watching this, I was afraid of him being underwhelming but doesn't seem to be the case (probably because dendro is so strong already) and I do have both a weapon and the artifacts for him, thanks for the guide mr socks! Nerdge
OMEGA COCKA King is here. While I do wish his burst was overall cheaper and his normals weren't nerfed, I do love how he's actually got something of a skill gap. Really enjoying him so far
He's getting Childe like treatment, where once at time of his release and rerun too , people were like Childe's weakness is that Xingqiu exists😂. Complex kit and insane dendro application is already enough to make him worth the wishes
it depends a lot, if you have nahida and great on-field carries he's pretty much a waste of summons specially if you don't have Hu Tao or Yelan who come next. 1-He has ER issues since he needs to focus on 4 different stats CRITD/CRITR + EM/ER, 70 energy cost... 2-Requiring a 2nd dendro in your team almost 100% of the time, limits his options for team comps greatly and good luck if you don't have Zhongli. 3-Very punishing rotation that doesn't offer much upgrade from many other far less punishing comps that deal even more damage and also allow different variants, such as double hydro+nahida+kuki/raiden, double electro+nahida+bennett/anemo/zhongli (and now maybe yaoyao too). Don't get me wrong, he is a viable character, but the next 2 characters are top #1 single target dps and #1 hydro support... and also Nahida is a far better dendro unit and Traveler/Yaoyao are 4* that have far more options to be effective in different comps as dendro characters.
@@francesccampos1343 Hu tao might be #1 Single target dps but That's contradictory to your first line about waste of summons if i already have a great on field carry. And You mentioned Zhongli for AlHaitham who doesn't need shielder in most cases as compared to Hu tao who cannot function without Zhongli. Next for Yelan- She's um 2nd best off field Hydro off field/sub dps #1 Hydro support off field is Xingqiu no doubt. Nextly , Yelan - she's enabled to do more dmg by using her with Xingqiu. Otherwise she also has Energy issues. Similarly AlHaitham running along with lets say Favonius Sword DendroMC is also a bonus for him since he can focus less on energy and can build 4pc Gilded since 4pc Deepwood will be on Traveller. Also You cannot Run Hu tao will Yelan alone , one mistake and your Hu tao rotation will be fcked. Yelan's relevant in the meta because of Xingqiu. If someone says Yelan can be your 2nd Xingqiu for 2nd team on abyss , they don't know what they are saying. If you think wishing for Yelan to put her on a Hyperbloom team with DendroMC on 2nd team , its better to use AlHaitham Barbara/Kokomi Kuki instead of Yelan Traveller kuki team since Hyperbloom team scale off how fast can Dendro be applied on enemies which AlHaitham clearly is miles ahead of Traveller. In terms of Flexibility , you can control how his dendro infusion to such an extent that he almost feels like a Catalyst user. Yelan is worth your Primos but as someone who rarely even uses Xingqiu, Yelan seems like a waste of wishes to me. Yes i don't use Xingqiu even tho i use Yoimiya (i beat Wolflord in abyss with Yoimiya Kokomi Fischl Kazuha and it was able to clear last floor with wolves as well)
@@sensibleDuck893 As someone who uses Yoimiya against the wolves i see there's no use in trying to make you understand what i was discussing about. As i said he can be viable to play, so is Xiao, Itto, Nilou or Eula and they can also clear abyss 12 (many many comps can with the proper investment) but comparing him to top tier comps is delusional.
@@francesccampos1343 that’s the thing tho, “top tier” comps only clear a few seconds faster if that. If speed is your thing go for it but others prefer to take the extra 5-10 seconds to have more fun (my opinion not everyone will find his kit fun) and still clear abyss for the 3 star. No such thing as a “waste” if you enjoy the character or just don’t give af imo
@@babyfinesse_ Fun is subjective, metrics, investment required and 5* additional characters to deal competitive damage are not. F2P players can't afford to pull "for fun" without heavy drawbacks in performance later, so telling them Alhaitham is borderline top tier like you suggest is just delusional and a lie that can make them waste their hard earned resources. The examples i gave you are quite the same, you can love their playstyle all you want, but saying they are top tier because a hyper invested xiao or Eula can clear abyss 12 is just a lie.
Hey, just wanted to say that you are the absolute BEST Genshin creator of all time. You helped unlock the absolute most out of my f2p Alhaitham and I am so thankful for how thorough you are while not going on and on about useless stuff. 11/10 recommend
I regret not getting him every time but he came out when I was taking a break from Genshin and just gaming in general. I just got Furina and finished building her about a week ago, but now I’m strinctly saving for his rerun banner. He’s just cool man.
tip for all the f2p out there, you should max out all the free event weapon during event because of the -50% upgrade cost, even if you don't plan to use the weapon right away. It save resources in the long run in case a good unit work well with the weapon.
@@kliphord123X it’s always the people who hate the character and just love to get attention out of it, pay no mind to them, I enjoy him and his complexities.
@@kliphord123X People also say Childe is bad when he has the strongest team in the game. Obviously it's too early to definitely say how strong Alhaitham is, but he's definitely strong enough to be a worthy investment, so all that matters is if you enjoy him.
I actually use a shorter rotation with him splitting the burst and skill into two rotations... his infusion duration actually fits well with the duration of Yae Miko totems. After his infusion ends Yae will need to place her totems again... So my rotation goes like this Zhongli HE>Yae EEE>Venti EQ> Alhaitham Q AAAAAA > Zhongli HE > Yae EEE > Venti QE > Alhaitham ECA AAAAAA > Repeat
I got him in 11 pulls yesterday with zero pity. Still can't believe my luck! 😍His playstyle is so much fun. Thank you so much for this guide. I was eagerly waiting for it!
everybody kept calling him dendro keqing. but honestly feels more like playing childe. I barely notice the similarities with keqing because My focus is on the attack pattern and rotation. also he feels like A hyper carry because the damage is massive when its his time to come out, but the teams he comes with dont feel like a hypercarry support team as well. example i run haitham, XQ, Dmc and kuki. xq dmc and kuki is a viable team. but once u set them up and its al's turn, slaps like crazy
Exactly he is similar to Childe where you set up and rotate then let him go unga bunga but honestly as a Childe haver since day 1 he is way more easier than Childe which I'm kinda grateful for. I think with the dendro Keqing people are looking at his animations rather than overall kit which is kinda understandable but once you start playing him and you understand his stacking mechanism, utilizing Q and R you would definitely see that he is way more complicated than Keqing.
This is my exact team and I agree 100%. Those 3 alone do a lot but once Alhaitham comes out the damage output is actually insane. Anyone that said he'd be bad (a good amount of content creators lol) were delusional. Him being a good dendro dps alone was gonna make him a worthy pull.
similitaries are mainly focused on their animations rather than their like, playstyle-ish E: so yk how you hold keqing E you see the little circle thing where you can specify where to put the teleporting thng? yeah. if you hold alhaitham's E you get the same thing but purple. and also element infusion Q: they both generate a field and they btoh generated a lot of slashes which have a final strike that deals AOE damage !!!
@Mrs. Darcy thats the thing for most main dps that are not hypercarry, the increase in dps is good but not too drastic and can have altarnate main dps as substitute and the results will be the same. for alhaitham, the damage increase is drastic. just like childe or raiden on national. so it feels weird to use it on hyperbloom.
@@ayulilengmian and like i said initially, when you play him, you dont notice it. their playstyle is leaps and bounds different. enough that that you barely notice the animations because your focus is either on the attack rotation or the massive numbers popping up its like having the same body for a car but 1 is stock and the other is souped up. you only know and see the difference once you're the 1 driving.
Excellent. Big thing for me compared to other carries is his teams are so flexible and he deals good damage on his own, so you can basically slot him anywhere. This is especially important compared to other DPS units like Hu Tao or Ayaka which really only have one team archetype.
Well... at least Hu Tao and Ayaka don't need to escale 4 different stats to be playable. Flexible? with high energy cost and unable to be used with Raiden properly? requiring almost always a 2nd dendro unit to act as a mana battery? What comp is better with him instead of Nahida + 2 hydro or 2 electro? also both you mention have a very straightforward rotation instead of Alhaitham that has a very punishing one only to be barely similar in dps. GL trying to get close to the dps of Hu Tao or Ayaka without Nahida/Zhongli as supports, 2 5*...
@@francesccampos1343 I use him with EM Raiden instead of Kuki and he works well for me :) I also have spread team variants with Yae, Fischl, Beidou, Raiden, Kuki, and Lisa with Zhongli and Nahida/DMC/Yaeyao that are really strong too. Easy 36 stars with his team and Childe international. I don't know who Tao is and Ayaka is permanently benched for being shit against bosses like Venti
@@francesccampos1343 "goodluck playing him without zhongli" yea because your hu tao doesnt need zhongli either lmao. He isnt at all strict to play and there's no optimal attack combo to spam because his na scalings arent good so why would u even need zhongli if you're just unga bunga normal atking
I always get excited seeing a build guide from you. You're the only person I can understand 😅 the way you explain is so much better than most for some reason... maybe its because you speak fast so my adhd brain is paying attention
I like how you just put "umbrella" as the name for the Toukabou Shigure, which is fair. And speaking of weapons, I don't have much choice besides the Black Sword mainly because I lack crit rate...
Wow zy0x. You’ve inspired me to change my life for the better. I no longer play gacha games but instead I go outside. I help those in need. I bake fresh loaves of bread for everyone in my community who needs it I now am a good tax paying Samaritan. I am the greatest person because you inspired me zy0x. I need you to know how much of a genshin impact you’ve had on my life. A positive force, for good. Wow, I’m truly touched, loved by such an emotional speech.

DID YOU KNOW. The Zy0x mating call, aka the “Zy0xussy” is a special sound that Zy0x makes when in heat while on stream. In 2022, it was pointed out that the sound of the Zy0x mating call, mimics that of a dying hedgehog which most likely signifies Zy0x’s love for hedgehogs. Additionally, Zy0x is definitely one of the content creators of all time. His guides are one of the ones I’ve seen. These clips are part of my year. Without his videos my day feels like a day. He’s the most perosn I’ve ever met. His Xiao artifacts are one of the character builds I’ve seen. Undoubtedly one of the streamers of 2022. - New York Times Seller (2023). But oh my god Zy0x. Not only did I know that you were already tall, humble, charismatic, funny, entertaining, and just... good overall, that you deserve this piece, but now, I can see... you getting rewarded for once, when every other time you’ve been unlucky. I just wanted to tell you.. hey Zy0x, I’m so grateful you’re streaming. This is such a nice calming soothing experience that really makes me happy and makes me enjoy Genshin Impact even further than I already do. You are such a respectable, cool, and calm individual that I can feel comfortable playing the audio on speakers, Bluetooth in front of my whole class. 92
Literally just 36 Starred the Abyss with him on my first try. Gotta say, despite everybody shit talking him and calling him crap, his Quickbloom comp is quite a strong team!

the enemies can easily get out of his burst aoe. they should make it bigger, or can stun/ immobilize, or just make the burst activate on the enemy as the center.
I thought I was the only one. I was expecting his ult to trap enemies too, but end up being not the case. It is difficult to aim since a lot of mobs will go close to you and he spawns his ult quite far away from him, still I think his skill kit, seems is not designed to be a nuke burst tope of character, but rather NA CA dendro driver, majority of his dmg just comes from that.🤔 it would have been easier to use him if his ult could trap enemies or just simply didn’t spawn too far away from him. Either way I’m loving him! 😭
@@rav9040 yeah, exactly. Majority of not all of his dmg just come from his E spam of CA NA 😂✌🏻 Edit: still, I think for single target (bosses like) is not bad, as long as they’re not too fast I think the ult feels quite solid in this situations 🤔
I waited for him 6 months (since 1st leak). I got c2 and with insane luck (pity 18 - 69 - 10) got his weapon. I'm so happy after those months I can finally be Alhaitham main T^T
I love how Al-Haitham's kit is similar to his character; at first glance it's complicated, but if you put effort in understanding it his kit is easily understandable and makes sense.
He looks so cool and I also vibe with his personality. I tested him out, and it took a little bit to get used to doing certain rotations to play him effectively. Going unga bunga on him, i found, wasnt really optimal on top of just spamming charged attacks. I'm not used to doing certain rotations cuz im a Unga bunga type of person lol. However, I am open to certain rotations, so im gonna knock him out of my list of rerun characters to pull just yet. So ill probably pull him in his rerun depending on if I'm open to master him by practicing. Right now, my focus is on Yelan.
I also like to unga bunga, that's why i like to use Zhongli. However Alhaitham could unga bunga as long we play him just more spam NA & only use CA to infuse.
Thank you for breaking down his rotation in such an easy to understand way! I've had trouble getting the hang of it so hearing and seeing it broken down really helps!
I’m on 60 pity now.. I have worked through 3 banners.. feels good knowing I am most likely going to get him in the next couple of days. My first guarantee!
man i just pulled xiao and now this is making me want alhaitham more LOL but i am waiting for baizhu so i think i will pull him on his rerun 😭 thank u for the guide! i was so confused how to play him on his trial run update: i caved LMAOO not to worry i have enough for baizhu anyway
Unless I missed it if you’re a whale and you have Alhaitham, Yelan, and Raiden Shogun, Alhaitham completely obliterates everything that so much as looks in his general direction. Combine Yelan’s burst with Shogun’s skill and Alhaitham’s mirrors and you have a team to be reckoned with
Not everyone has the same luck. You could’ve pulled on all of the limited 5 star banners from the aforementioned characters I’ve listed and always fail the 50/50. You made it sound like I was attacking a group of people when in all reality not everyone will have EVERY character
I did em Raiden, Alhaitham and Xingqui. And they're strong and my Raiden's artifacts aren't even on level 20 and she's not even using a dendro artifacts set
@@dylanturner4165 if you're trying to pull on every single banner of course you will fail to get the units you particularly want. As a non-whale, you need to choose, prioritize, and save up primos by skipping many banners. Don't excuse your own lack of impulse control by "only whales have several non-standard chars"
@@AliAhmed-ub4yd My Al Haitham (C0) is using the 4pc gilded dream set and his signature wep Nahida (C0) is using 4pc deepwood (all EM) she has 1000+ EM atm Xingqiu (C6) using 4pc emblem set w/ favonius sword R5 Kuki (C3) is using 4pc gilded (all EM) she also has 1000+ EM and she is using Xiphos Moonlight sword R2, so shes giving about 13% ER to everyone Edit: Also i use favonius on Xingqiu instead of sacrificial because i can already get his burst with just 1 E and i dont have to spend too much time on him
If you like using bursts then Shogun, yaoyao, Tartaglia, alheitham is quite fun. Basically you get around cds by using bursts. Yaoyao is here as healer, dendro aplication and dendro dmg increase. Shogun is good because he is reliant electro applier and also has good burst. Tartaglia uses ele skill, apply riptide n then bursts. Alheitheim uses ele skill, charge attack and then 10 hit burst. This comps flows quite nicely. You just need to pay attention to bursts cds and Targtalia ele skill cd.
hey what's up guys welcome to my complete alhaitham guide alhaitham is the newest character in genshin impact who is finally here he is a dendro five star who can deal significant amounts of damage from on field and so in today's video we're going to be covering everything you need to know about alhaitham talking about his best builds play styles combos teams and so much more this is going to be a comprehensive video so that you can pick out how to best build and also play this character who personally is one of my favorites now before we begin a few things you need to know first of all i've had a lot of time to play alhaitham on a media server before he went live which is why i get to give you guys this information so early furthermore i got to test him on my livestream as soon as he came out and in case you're wondering i do stream most nights on twitch link in the description if you wanna catch me live and without further ado let's get right into the video
I think that if you refresh the third mirror with a charge attack before his skill, you have more access to his charge attacks while the passive is on cool down, although this does increase his stamina usage. Since it seems his charge attacks have a separate 2 sec ICD from his normals, this could get you a few more spreads per rotation? Idk, I haven't built mine yet.
Yeah. I tried to explain this to my friend on how to combo him, but they're confused. It's better to told them NA spam & use CA for infusion when they are still learning his combo.
It seems that another rotation you can do is by splitting your alhaitham fieldtime, doing two sets. One with the ulti and the other with the elemental skill and charged attack. Basically doing the same rotation as you would do with a keqing.
I was pulling for his weapon, I didn't planned on getting him (I'm a dolfin) got lucky and got the weapon first try at 60 pity and with the leftovers I pulled on his banner for Yao Yao but ended up getting him at pity 20 after I just got raiden... I have been really enjoying him for now, it's the first 5* chara that I have with his signature weapon mostly because it wasn't planned, he is just level 40 and already doing 10k per hit, I can't wait to level him up and give him better artefacts, he is so broken
Got him REALLY early on a 50/50 and he's now level 80. I mostly use him in my hyper bloom team (Al haithem, Raiden, Kazuha and Xingqiu) and he's super fun to play. Problem is that I don't really have good artifacts for him :(
Alhaitham is supposedly coming in 4.7 alongside Chlorinde's banner, after them is Sigewinne and Furina. Thinking of pulling Alhaitham so this was very helpful~. 😙👌🌿🛡
Having him is a good change of pace for me. Instead of pop skill, pop burst, and then you sleep, "unga bunga" Until they can't move, or blindly shooting at the floor because so much sh*ts happening and you just want to get it over with.
Oh also, quick tip. Just like childe you can look at your skill cd's to know when your 4 seconds of 3 stacks are up and you know when to refresh it.. I don't use this trick though. When the skill you last used goes from 18 to 14 seconds, you know your 4 seconds are up.
Yaaas! This is the team I planned to play him in. I did get yaoyao on the banner also so may slot her to have two dendro teams 😁. P.S. he’s my first limited 5 star constellation as I pulled him twice in a ten 💀 it was pretty close to hard pity but I’m still in shock days later lmao
My favorite team atm is duo carry with Alhaitham/Hyper Raiden/Nahida/Zhongli. Alhaitham and Raiden together share a 20s rotation. It's satisfying to see that after alhaitham's time , I burst with Raiden. Rotation is Raiden E, Zhongli E, Nahida EQ, Alhaitham's rotation, Raiden Q... Rinse and repeat. ER on Alhaitham is 120 and it is enough in my experience
Started playing 2 weeks ago as f2p, tried to pull for Raiden, but lost my 50/50, kept pulling until the very end and was 4 pulls off hard pity. Was kinda sad, but when I got Alhaitam on my 3rd pull and tried him out, was extremely happy. Daddy is finally home! Great guide, Zyox, love both your guides and random entertaining stuff on your streams!
He is my favourite character so far. Not only because he is Arab (I'm biased against my own), but because he is my introduction to dendro. I didn't pull for Nahida and I never build my traveller so I was just vibing with my other elements. I maxed him on the first day and good god that man is FUN!!
@@thethrongler I'm so desperate to whatever lick of representation I could get that I wanted him the moment his name dropped. 💀 He will have a rerun soon, so good luck on your pulls!
im a little late, but al is one of my fav characters. was a little hesitant when i first pulled him but he's SO WORTH IT. he's incredibly strong and so fun to use
I really like using the Sacrificial Sword on him. anytime a mirror hits or his dash hits, the sword can activate and reset his dash cooldown. Mirror up time for me is waaaay higher with this sword, but I see noone talking about it and was wondering if I am just crazy or are people over looking this because they didnt test it out and see that the mirrors actually proc the swords ability?
I got too lucky and got Light of Foliar Incision in just 8 pulls. And I am guaranteed on Alhaitham. Wanted to go for c1 Hu Tao after 2 years but since I got both nahida and raiden that's gonna have to wait.
He's my first 5 star when I started playing genshin (i think it was around Jan/Feb of 2023?) and now I finally decided to build him. Thanks for this guide, Zyox!
Alhaitham is so complex, and therein lies the fun. Just balancing his stats alone is quite the task ive got him 65.9 CR 240.8 CD 504 EM but no ER! its gonna be a balancing act.
when i first got him, i didn't watch this yet so the past few days. i've been playing him randomly just figuring out his kit as i play without reading his skills lol but now this is a very helpful video
he's finally here LETS GOOOOO
hope u enjoyed the guide i tried my best to include as much information as possible & get it out as early as I could

3. When you see the 2nd instance of rain blades, cast his Skill (E) to maintain 3 mirrors.
4. Do normal attacks again (still NO charged attacks) and procc 2 more instances of rain blades. _(4 rain blades at this point)_
🔪🔪🔪🔪
5. When you see the 4th instance of rain blades, now you can do a charged attack to continue maintaining 3 mirrors.
6. Do normal attacks to procc another 2 instances of rain blades. _(Total of 6 consecutive rain blades at this point)_
🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪
7. And then you can just spam his infused attacks until his mirrors run out.
It takes practice and familiarity to do this. So be patient. But once you nail this, I assure you the satisfaction is awesome!! 🤘❇️

FYI alhaitham with kuki is sufficient to maintain his health above the 90% threshold. Harbinger is completely viable with kuki
for sure! unless i’m against the corrosion wolves i’ve found kuki (960em, 21k hp) to be enough to enable 100% uptime on HoD .
I tried pulling for cookie on 2.7, but instead I got c1 ghetto 😭
I wanna know if yaoyao is able to replace kuki for healer for hod uptime as I wanna use raiden instead
@@CM_684 While you can use both in a team: alhaitham yao yao raiden xingqiu is an example, neither raiden or kuki are recommended in the spiral abyss for alhaitham. It's viable, but this is neither the comfortable team nor does it offer the highest possible dmg for alhaitham.
@@yae_123 well, I'm using AlHaitham hyperbloom with that exact team you mentioned, why is it not recommended and what's recommended then?
This still feels so surreal. After so much anticipation, uncertainty that he’ll be playable and excitement over any small appearance or mention of him since he was first introduced, he is finally here. I’m so happy I was here to experience the build up and release of the most ant
This seems like a comment for wanderer 😂

Damn this is a copy paste now💀💀?
I was more excited to watch this video than I was to pull for Alhaitham
It's often more fun to learn how to build characters than it is to actually build them *screams in CW domain*
I love how Mr. socks was calm, compose and cease himself from simping on Alhaitham for 26 mins
Yeah I only have him at level 70 with talents at 4 and he's doing some good damage. Using Black Sword R5 plus Nahida in his team and he puts in work already. Best guy character in a long time. Not since Zhongli have we gotten such a stud.

OMEGA beams
He's getting Childe like treatment, where once at time of his release and rerun too , people were like Childe's weakness is that Xingqiu exists😂.
Complex kit and insane dendro application is already enough to make him worth the wishes
it depends a lot, if you have nahida and great on-field carries he's pretty much a waste of summons specially if you don't have Hu Tao or Yelan who come next.
1-He has ER issues since he needs to focus on 4 different stats CRITD/CRITR + EM/ER, 70 energy cost...
2-Requiring a 2nd dendro in your team almost 100% of the time, limits his options for team comps greatly and good luck if you don't have Zhongli.
3-Very punishing rotation that doesn't offer much upgrade from many other far less punishing comps that deal even more damage and also allow different variants, such as double hydro+nahida+kuki/raiden, double electro+nahida+bennett/anemo/zhongli (and now maybe yaoyao too).
Don't get me wrong, he is a viable character, but the next 2 characters are top #1 single target dps and #1 hydro support... and also Nahida is a far better dendro unit and Traveler/Yaoyao are 4* that have far more options to be effective in different comps as dendro characters.
@@francesccampos1343 Hu tao might be #1 Single target dps but That's contradictory to your first line about waste of summons if i already have a great on field carry.
And You mentioned Zhongli for AlHaitham who doesn't need shielder in most cases as compared to Hu tao who cannot function without Zhongli.
Next for Yelan- She's um 2nd best off field Hydro off field/sub dps
#1 Hydro support off field is Xingqiu no doubt.
Nextly , Yelan - she's enabled to do more dmg by using her with Xingqiu.
Otherwise she also has Energy issues.
Similarly AlHaitham running along with lets say Favonius Sword DendroMC is also a bonus for him since he can focus less on energy and can build 4pc Gilded since 4pc Deepwood will be on Traveller.
Also You cannot Run Hu tao will Yelan alone , one mistake and your Hu tao rotation will be fcked.
Yelan's relevant in the meta because of Xingqiu.
If someone says Yelan can be your 2nd Xingqiu for 2nd team on abyss , they don't know what they are saying.
If you think wishing for Yelan to put her on a Hyperbloom team with DendroMC on 2nd team , its better to use AlHaitham Barbara/Kokomi Kuki instead of Yelan Traveller kuki team since Hyperbloom team scale off how fast can Dendro be applied on enemies which AlHaitham clearly is miles ahead of Traveller.
In terms of Flexibility , you can control how his dendro infusion to such an extent that he almost feels like a Catalyst user.
Yelan is worth your Primos but as someone who rarely even uses Xingqiu, Yelan seems like a waste of wishes to me.
Yes i don't use Xingqiu even tho i use Yoimiya (i beat Wolflord in abyss with Yoimiya Kokomi Fischl Kazuha and it was able to clear last floor with wolves as well)
@@sensibleDuck893 As someone who uses Yoimiya against the wolves i see there's no use in trying to make you understand what i was discussing about.
As i said he can be viable to play, so is Xiao, Itto, Nilou or Eula and they can also clear abyss 12 (many many comps can with the proper investment) but comparing him to top tier comps is delusional.
@@francesccampos1343 that’s the thing tho, “top tier” comps only clear a few seconds faster if that. If speed is your thing go for it but others prefer to take the extra 5-10 seconds to have more fun (my opinion not everyone will find his kit fun) and still clear abyss for the 3 star. No such thing as a “waste” if you enjoy the character or just don’t give af imo
@@babyfinesse_ Fun is subjective, metrics, investment required and 5* additional characters to deal competitive damage are not.
F2P players can't afford to pull "for fun" without heavy drawbacks in performance later, so telling them Alhaitham is borderline top tier like you suggest is just delusional and a lie that can make them waste their hard earned resources.
The examples i gave you are quite the same, you can love their playstyle all you want, but saying they are top tier because a hyper invested xiao or Eula can clear abyss 12 is just a lie.
Hey, just wanted to say that you are the absolute BEST Genshin creator of all time. You helped unlock the absolute most out of my f2p Alhaitham and I am so thankful for how thorough you are while not going on and on about useless stuff. 11/10 recommend

tip for all the f2p out there, you should max out all the free event weapon during event because of the -50% upgrade cost, even if you don't plan to use the weapon right away. It save resources in the long run in case a good unit work well with the weapon.
Alhaitham is way too busted, his playstyle and his kit literally takes dendro reactions to a whole new level, don’t regret pulling for him at all.
funny cuz i'd be seeing people say he isn't that good of a character when really he probably is the more people use him more.
they're just idk weird hahaha idk why they hate him and compare him to keqing when they are completely different
@@kliphord123X it’s always the people who hate the character and just love to get attention out of it, pay no mind to them, I enjoy him and his complexities.
@@kliphord123X People also say Childe is bad when he has the strongest team in the game. Obviously it's too early to definitely say how strong Alhaitham is, but he's definitely strong enough to be a worthy investment, so all that matters is if you enjoy him.
@@kirin1230 yeah pretty much all that matters really
got him and his weapon yesterday, time to get the grind going 🏃♀️
I actually use a shorter rotation with him splitting the burst and skill into two rotations... his infusion duration actually fits well with the duration of Yae Miko totems. After his infusion ends Yae will need to place her totems again... So my rotation goes like this Zhongli HE>Yae EEE>Venti EQ> Alhaitham Q AAAAAA > Zhongli HE > Yae EEE > Venti QE > Alhaitham ECA AAAAAA > Repeat
Instead of Q AAA… try Q AAEAA (for longer duration Q AAEAACAA…). This way you deal way more damage.
I got him in 11 pulls yesterday with zero pity. Still can't believe my luck! 😍His playstyle is so much fun.
Thank you so much for this guide. I was eagerly waiting for it!
everybody kept calling him dendro keqing. but honestly feels more like playing childe. I barely notice the similarities with keqing because My focus is on the attack pattern and rotation.
also he feels like A hyper carry because the damage is massive when its his time to come out, but the teams he comes with dont feel like a hypercarry support team as well.
example i run haitham, XQ, Dmc and kuki. xq dmc and kuki is a viable team. but once u set them up and its al's turn, slaps like crazy
Exactly he is similar to Childe where you set up and rotate then let him go unga bunga but honestly as a Childe haver since day 1 he is way more easier than Childe which I'm kinda grateful for. I think with the dendro Keqing people are looking at his animations rather than overall kit which is kinda understandable but once you start playing him and you understand his stacking mechanism, utilizing Q and R you would definitely see that he is way more complicated than Keqing.
This is my exact team and I agree 100%. Those 3 alone do a lot but once Alhaitham comes out the damage output is actually insane. Anyone that said he'd be bad (a good amount of content creators lol) were delusional. Him being a good dendro dps alone was gonna make him a worthy pull.
similitaries are mainly focused on their animations rather than their like, playstyle-ish
E:
so yk how you hold keqing E you see the little circle thing where you can specify where to put the teleporting thng? yeah. if you hold alhaitham's E you get the same thing but purple.
and also element infusion
Q:
they both generate a field and they btoh generated a lot of slashes which have a final strike that deals AOE damage !!!
@Mrs. Darcy thats the thing for most main dps that are not hypercarry, the increase in dps is good but not too drastic and can have altarnate main dps as substitute and the results will be the same.
for alhaitham, the damage increase is drastic. just like childe or raiden on national. so it feels weird to use it on hyperbloom.
@@ayulilengmian and like i said initially, when you play him, you dont notice it. their playstyle is leaps and bounds different. enough that that you barely notice the animations because your focus is either on the attack rotation or the massive numbers popping up
its like having the same body for a car but 1 is stock and the other is souped up. you only know and see the difference once you're the 1 driving.
The showcase at the end was sick, I will definitely invest in hyperbloom team once I get Kuki! Nice guide as always, thanks zy0nix
i miss kuki too
Excellent. Big thing for me compared to other carries is his teams are so flexible and he deals good damage on his own, so you can basically slot him anywhere. This is especially important compared to other DPS units like Hu Tao or Ayaka which really only have one team archetype.
Well... at least Hu Tao and Ayaka don't need to escale 4 different stats to be playable.
Flexible? with high energy cost and unable to be used with Raiden properly? requiring almost always a 2nd dendro unit to act as a mana battery? What comp is better with him instead of Nahida + 2 hydro or 2 electro? also both you mention have a very straightforward rotation instead of Alhaitham that has a very punishing one only to be barely similar in dps.
GL trying to get close to the dps of Hu Tao or Ayaka without Nahida/Zhongli as supports, 2 5*...

Easy 36 stars with his team and Childe international. I don't know who Tao is and Ayaka is permanently benched for being shit against bosses like Venti

I always get excited seeing a build guide from you. You're the only person I can understand 😅 the way you explain is so much better than most for some reason... maybe its because you speak fast so my adhd brain is paying attention
I like how you just put "umbrella" as the name for the Toukabou Shigure, which is fair. And speaking of weapons, I don't have much choice besides the Black Sword mainly because I lack crit rate...
Same my friend....same it's easier to get crit DMG than crit rate
Why not use harbinger of dawn? Along with a healer like kuki, it's not hard keeping above 90% hp.

Wow zy0x. You’ve inspired me to change my life for the better. I no longer play gacha games but instead I go outside. I help those in need. I bake fresh loaves of bread for everyone in my community who needs it I now am a good tax paying Samaritan. I am the greatest person because you inspired me zy0x. I need you to know how much of a genshin impact you’ve had on my life. A positive force, for good. Wow, I’m truly touched, loved by such an emotional speech.
Anyways
I'll have you know I’m seven foot five on a bad day that's after my spine compressed when I’m fresh out of bed I lament to heights of nine to ten feet I’m like a skyscraper there are clouds around me people ask zy0x how is the air up there it must be hard to breathe
Also did you know. DID YOU KNOW. The Zy0x mating call, aka the “Zy0xussy” is a special sound that Zy0x makes when in heat while on stream. In 2022, it was pointed out that the sound of the Zy0x mating call, mimics that of a dying hedgehog which most likely signifies Zy0x’s love for hedgehogs.
Additionally, Zy0x is definitely one of the content creators of all time. His guides are one of the ones I’ve seen. These clips are part of my year. Without his videos my day feels like a day. He’s the most perosn I’ve ever met. His Xiao artifacts are one of the character builds I’ve seen. Undoubtedly one of the streamers of 2022. - New York Times Seller (2023). But oh my god Zy0x. Not only did I know that you were already tall, humble, charismatic, funny, entertaining, and just... good overall, that you deserve this piece, but now, I can see... you getting rewarded for once, when every other time you’ve been unlucky.
I just wanted to tell you.. hey Zy0x, I’m so grateful you’re streaming. This is such a nice calming soothing experience that really makes me happy and makes me enjoy Genshin Impact even further than I already do. You are such a respectable, cool, and calm individual that I can feel comfortable playing the audio on speakers, Bluetooth in front of my whole class.

The Ruin Serpent break down was too amazing. I wish I could have such gameplay at least once in life.

Gen Z kids
The fact that I'm older than him hurts
certainly one of the guides of all time
the enemies can easily get out of his burst aoe. they should make it bigger, or can stun/ immobilize, or just make the burst activate on the enemy as the center.
I thought I was the only one. I was expecting his ult to trap enemies too, but end up being not the case. It is difficult to aim since a lot of mobs will go close to you and he spawns his ult quite far away from him, still I think his skill kit, seems is not designed to be a nuke burst tope of character, but rather NA CA dendro driver, majority of his dmg just comes from that.🤔 it would have been easier to use him if his ult could trap enemies or just simply didn’t spawn too far away from him. Either way I’m loving him! 😭
who cares his burst can literally hit no one and he'd still be as good all of his dmg is from mirrors
venti and diluc Q looking at this
@@sunghoonkisser with venti, still at least he succs enemiess hahaha
@@rav9040 yeah, exactly. Majority of not all of his dmg just come from his E spam of CA NA 😂✌🏻

Thank you :D so excited to watch, I pulled him last night and so happy
26:00 that no lookback was insane lmao
i've seen like two other videos but you managed to make me understand how to use this feeble scolar xD thank you so much as always
He's fun to play! I got him by accident and was surprised by his damage! New favorite for me!
I love how Al-Haitham's kit is similar to his character; at first glance it's complicated, but if you put effort in understanding it his kit is easily understandable and makes sense.
I can really suggest Harbinger of Dawn he does already 2k damage with it at level 40 with okay artefacts (aren't all leveled up)
ur literally insane, thanks for the fast uploads dude
He looks so cool and I also vibe with his personality. I tested him out, and it took a little bit to get used to doing certain rotations to play him effectively. Going unga bunga on him, i found, wasnt really optimal on top of just spamming charged attacks. I'm not used to doing certain rotations cuz im a Unga bunga type of person lol. However, I am open to certain rotations, so im gonna knock him out of my list of rerun characters to pull just yet. So ill probably pull him in his rerun depending on if I'm open to master him by practicing. Right now, my focus is on Yelan.
*"im not gonna"*
I also like to unga bunga, that's why i like to use Zhongli. However Alhaitham could unga bunga as long we play him just more spam NA & only use CA to infuse.
Thank you for breaking down his rotation in such an easy to understand way! I've had trouble getting the hang of it so hearing and seeing it broken down really helps!
His reception reminds me of Tartaglia's kit.
That was a smooth ass showcase, I wanna build him with proper artefacts now, thanks man, wish me luck.
good luck :)
I’m on 60 pity now.. I have worked through 3 banners.. feels good knowing I am most likely going to get him in the next couple of days. My first guarantee!
Yao Yao is budget Alhaitham/dendro Klee. She also applies as much dendro as Alhaitham and can uses similar artifacts
man i just pulled xiao and now this is making me want alhaitham more LOL
but i am waiting for baizhu so i think i will pull him on his rerun 😭 thank u for the guide! i was so confused how to play him on his trial run
update: i caved LMAOO
not to worry i have enough for baizhu anyway
congrats! you'll definitely have enough for guaranteed baizhu when his banner releases for sure so you're safe
Unless I missed it if you’re a whale and you have Alhaitham, Yelan, and Raiden Shogun, Alhaitham completely obliterates everything that so much as looks in his general direction. Combine Yelan’s burst with Shogun’s skill and Alhaitham’s mirrors and you have a team to be reckoned with
You… really don’t need to be a whale just to have three limited five-stars. The victim complex of F2Ps is getting really annoying to see
Not everyone has the same luck. You could’ve pulled on all of the limited 5 star banners from the aforementioned characters I’ve listed and always fail the 50/50. You made it sound like I was attacking a group of people when in all reality not everyone will have EVERY character
I did em Raiden, Alhaitham and Xingqui. And they're strong and my Raiden's artifacts aren't even on level 20 and she's not even using a dendro artifacts set
U can switch out raiden and yelan for kuki and xingqiu yknow.
@@dylanturner4165 if you're trying to pull on every single banner of course you will fail to get the units you particularly want. As a non-whale, you need to choose, prioritize, and save up primos by skipping many banners. Don't excuse your own lack of impulse control by "only whales have several non-standard chars"
honestly this haitham build works great but he’s such a diverse character that like his build can vary on what team you use. he’s such a goat 😌😌
I've been running AH, Nahida, XQ/Yelan, Kuki w/ Xiphos and the rotation is so smooth, no ER problem at all
How are your supports built on this team?
@@AliAhmed-ub4yd My Al Haitham (C0) is using the 4pc gilded dream set and his signature wep
Nahida (C0) is using 4pc deepwood (all EM) she has 1000+ EM atm
Xingqiu (C6) using 4pc emblem set w/ favonius sword R5
Kuki (C3) is using 4pc gilded (all EM) she also has 1000+ EM and she is using Xiphos Moonlight sword R2, so shes giving about 13% ER to everyone
Edit: Also i use favonius on Xingqiu instead of sacrificial because i can already get his burst with just 1 E and i dont have to spend too much time on him
If you like using bursts then Shogun, yaoyao, Tartaglia, alheitham is quite fun. Basically you get around cds by using bursts. Yaoyao is here as healer, dendro aplication and dendro dmg increase. Shogun is good because he is reliant electro applier and also has good burst. Tartaglia uses ele skill, apply riptide n then bursts. Alheitheim uses ele skill, charge attack and then 10 hit burst. This comps flows quite nicely. You just need to pay attention to bursts cds and Targtalia ele skill cd.
hey what's up guys welcome to my complete alhaitham guide alhaitham is the newest character in genshin impact who is finally here he is a dendro five star who can deal significant amounts of damage from on field and so in today's video we're going to be covering everything you need to know about alhaitham talking about his best builds play styles combos teams and so much more this is going to be a comprehensive video so that you can pick out how to best build and also play this character who personally is one of my favorites now before we begin a few things you need to know first of all i've had a lot of time to play alhaitham on a media server before he went live which is why i get to give you guys this information so early furthermore i got to test him on my livestream as soon as he came out and in case you're wondering i do stream most nights on twitch link in the description if you wanna catch me live and without further ado let's get right into the video
thank you so much man i was really lost this time on how to build
this video answered all the questions in my head BLESS
I think that if you refresh the third mirror with a charge attack before his skill, you have more access to his charge attacks while the passive is on cool down, although this does increase his stamina usage.
Since it seems his charge attacks have a separate 2 sec ICD from his normals, this could get you a few more spreads per rotation? Idk, I haven't built mine yet.
Yeah. I tried to explain this to my friend on how to combo him, but they're confused. It's better to told them NA spam & use CA for infusion when they are still learning his combo.
watched every single second of this, awesome video!
It seems that another rotation you can do is by splitting your alhaitham fieldtime, doing two sets. One with the ulti and the other with the elemental skill and charged attack. Basically doing the same rotation as you would do with a keqing.
I was pulling for his weapon, I didn't planned on getting him (I'm a dolfin) got lucky and got the weapon first try at 60 pity and with the leftovers I pulled on his banner for Yao Yao but ended up getting him at pity 20 after I just got raiden...
I have been really enjoying him for now, it's the first 5* chara that I have with his signature weapon mostly because it wasn't planned, he is just level 40 and already doing 10k per hit, I can't wait to level him up and give him better artefacts, he is so broken
Got him REALLY early on a 50/50 and he's now level 80. I mostly use him in my hyper bloom team (Al haithem, Raiden, Kazuha and Xingqiu) and he's super fun to play. Problem is that I don't really have good artifacts for him :(
Alhaitham is supposedly coming in 4.7 alongside Chlorinde's banner, after them is Sigewinne and Furina.
Thinking of pulling Alhaitham so this was very helpful~.
😙👌🌿🛡
Having him is a good change of pace for me. Instead of pop skill, pop burst, and then you sleep, "unga bunga" Until they can't move, or blindly shooting at the floor because so much sh*ts happening and you just want to get it over with.
Oh also, quick tip. Just like childe you can look at your skill cd's to know when your 4 seconds of 3 stacks are up and you know when to refresh it.. I don't use this trick though. When the skill you last used goes from 18 to 14 seconds, you know your 4 seconds are up.
Yaaas! This is the team I planned to play him in. I did get yaoyao on the banner also so may slot her to have two dendro teams 😁. P.S. he’s my first limited 5 star constellation as I pulled him twice in a ten 💀 it was pretty close to hard pity but I’m still in shock days later lmao
Good stuff
My favorite team atm is duo carry with Alhaitham/Hyper Raiden/Nahida/Zhongli. Alhaitham and Raiden together share a 20s rotation. It's satisfying to see that after alhaitham's time , I burst with Raiden. Rotation is Raiden E, Zhongli E, Nahida EQ, Alhaitham's rotation, Raiden Q... Rinse and repeat. ER on Alhaitham is 120 and it is enough in my experience
Started playing 2 weeks ago as f2p, tried to pull for Raiden, but lost my 50/50, kept pulling until the very end and was 4 pulls off hard pity. Was kinda sad, but when I got Alhaitam on my 3rd pull and tried him out, was extremely happy. Daddy is finally home!
Great guide, Zyox, love both your guides and random entertaining stuff on your streams!
The calling him daddy part is creepy simp..cringe
@@Hugo-uj1sv taking that seriously in any way is cringe.
Ty for the guide! I suddenly had the urge to pull for him but I had no idea what he did lmao so I needed this.
Also I love ur team names lol
Just got him, watching so I can build my baby.
this is my first video after seeing your stream and the difference is actually insane
He is my favourite character so far. Not only because he is Arab (I'm biased against my own), but because he is my introduction to dendro. I didn't pull for Nahida and I never build my traveller so I was just vibing with my other elements. I maxed him on the first day and good god that man is FUN!!
I legit wanted to pull for him just cause he is Arab and seemed cool but Yelan is coming right after so i'll keep my primos
@@thethrongler I'm so desperate to whatever lick of representation I could get that I wanted him the moment his name dropped. 💀
He will have a rerun soon, so good luck on your pulls!
@@emmasmith9785 thx and you too!
Just a clarification, biased TOWARDS is the phrase you are looking for here :) biased AGAINST means you don’t like him.
@@schin9307 oooh, okay! Thanks
I honestly wait till this man puts up a vid to pull lol,has really helped,thx Zyox keep up the awesome work
3:30 conclusion: The burst will always try to guarantee you 3 mirrors, but if you already have 3 then you get none
im a little late, but al is one of my fav characters. was a little hesitant when i first pulled him but he's SO WORTH IT. he's incredibly strong and so fun to use
I really like using the Sacrificial Sword on him. anytime a mirror hits or his dash hits, the sword can activate and reset his dash cooldown. Mirror up time for me is waaaay higher with this sword, but I see noone talking about it and was wondering if I am just crazy or are people over looking this because they didnt test it out and see that the mirrors actually proc the swords ability?
You’re crazy, no offense
I was waiting for this video. Thank you so much for all your efforts, man ❤️🤝🏻
I got too lucky and got Light of Foliar Incision in just 8 pulls. And I am guaranteed on Alhaitham. Wanted to go for c1 Hu Tao after 2 years but since I got both nahida and raiden that's gonna have to wait.
He's my first 5 star when I started playing genshin (i think it was around Jan/Feb of 2023?) and now I finally decided to build him. Thanks for this guide, Zyox!
I regret not pulling for him so bad 💀💀
same💀
dont worry his rerun is in 3.7
Same, I lost 50/50 to Xiao I should've pulled for alhaitham instead, but I have enough for him now when 3.7 arrives. I hope I can get Kazuha too.
woah just what i was looking for! TY SO MUCH
watching al-haitham guides hoping i'll somehow still get him after 140 pulls and zero primogems
You're so close. The events may be enough to get him. Good luck!
youre getting him for sure
i'm at 35 no guaranteed and still certain i'l get him, he's absolutely going home to you! tons of wishes and freemos to come this patch
I got him accidentally in 20 pulls...
@@Mr.Ashhhh crazy how no one asked(i wish it was me)
zyox the goat back at it again with another banger guide
Alhaitham came and so did I
Jade cutter sword looks so beautiful on Alhaitham :O
I’m a busy college student but I find time to watch these guides on 1.5 speed 😂
Same lmfao 😭
I have been waiting for thia before i pull, Thank you Zy0x 🖤
The long awaited alhaitham guide is here letsgoo !!
Alhaitham is so complex, and therein lies the fun. Just balancing his stats alone is quite the task ive got him 65.9 CR 240.8 CD 504 EM but no ER! its gonna be a balancing act.
how does it feel to have your 2 favorite genshin characters on the same banner?
got al haitham in 7 pity on 50/50
And I got al haitham at 80 pity too
But he had red hair and a pyro vision
Are you me?
when i first got him, i didn't watch this yet so the past few days. i've been playing him randomly just figuring out his kit as i play without reading his skills lol but now this is a very helpful video
It’s beautiful. I’ve looked at this for five hours now.
Lo esperaba muchas gracias zyox un saludo
I love his playstyle. Thanks for the tips!
