@ekg5515 the skyrider, it worked fine, but the fav is definitely better. He really benefits from ER weapons, which makes Skyward Blade his best 5 star. Another 4 star option is the sac sword, which isn't his BiS, but it works. His cooldown is too short to actually take advantage of it tho
great take on this tier list! it's too bad that cinnabar spindle is not available anymore for albedo havers who joined late into the game (sadly i'm one of them). a suggestion: a tier list into the consumables (food) and other stuff of similar category for the lols haha
6:21 funny enough when xiphos’ moonlight came out along with wandering evenstar and Nilou’s signature weapon I decided to pull on the banner just for the 4 star sword and catalyst. Well I spent 20 pulls, got what I wanted and got nilou’s signature weapon on top of that. That’s the second luckiest I’ve ever been.
I have two favonius polearms and bows level 90 since they are so broken and can be run on so many characters on both sides of the abyss. There are so many bow and polearm supports who don't do damage but can help the team with energy solely based on the effect of these weapons. They are broken because no even 5 star weapons can beat those benefits and are a god send to f2p/new players.
@@RAITH.Z this is not a character discussion. I'm talking about dps weapons. They're good very good dps weapons for good value and aren't gacha gated. they're a must have for every f2p player or a low spender
I mean... you are getting short of summons. I always preferred to use those coins for more characteres/constellations or even better pulls, and just accept the lower crit or use better artifacts/crit 3 star weapons
It’s refreshing to hear someone pronounce the Japanese weapon names correctly (I’ll give you a pass on Kitain Cross Spear since you got the others right and the transcription isn’t as clear for that weapon).
Glad he changed it at the last second for sac sword to be in game changer. I think it legit changed my game because I could easily get xingqius burst up ALL the time, not to mention his skill is incredibly strong.
Homeboy, King's Squire is not a CA bow. It is a Skill and Burst focused bow for ATK scaling characters who want EM as well and don't spend a lot of time on-field, like Collei, FIschl, or Tighnari. In addition, Alley Hunter gives a *damage* bonus, not an ATK bonus, meaning that Yelan can absolutely use it without issue, even though her scaling is HP based. Also, Kagotsurube Isshin is at least a strictly better Flute. Dragonspine Spear doesn't "do cryo or something" it does additional damage on enemies affected by cryo. I tuned out after Lithic spear.
I know its just 4 stars but new players could look at this video and build prototype amber instead of TTDS, if you are new to genshin just use thrilling tales of dragon slayers, it's a 3 stars weapon that is Best weapon for any catalyst support
I mean in reality as good as it is most players who aren't at relatively easy 36 star abyss skill level don't take advantage of TTDS buff without realizing it most the time due to not being aware of CD timing. I'd say it's over recommended if anything.
Protype Amber is a very good weapon on a more established account but still ok for newer players. It is a fantastic tool you can pull out when needed. I sometimes use it over 5 star weapons on certain characters. It can be great on Nahida for example when you do not have a healer on the team. A Nahida with PA is a better support than a dedicated dendro healer with a good weapon. It can be good on a new account if you can not afford to build a dedicated healer too. Basically make a healer on demand for any catalyst user. Especially if you can spam the burst. It is pretty good on Lisa too as it is hard to make TTDS work on her early on since she is bad at generating energy and you want to use her burst which PA helps with.
Prototype Amber is great for comfort drafting, and that's probably the more relevant consideration for non-expert level players. I actually crafted two R5 so that I could have them on both sides of Abyss if needed (Nahida/Sucrose/Mona), and will probably make a third for Baizhu just so I don't have to keep swapping it off him since he's bogarting one all the time now.
I'm surprised Xiphos is not game changer to you. At 1k em like Kazuha with r5 Xiphos, he give everyone 30% ER and himself 70+% and more if more em. And the best part, it stack to anyone holding same weapon. It will get broken and broken the more em sword user comes out. Also unlike Fav and Sac, it works on shielded opponent!
Yep, if we're talking about physical dmg dealers, then it sky rockets the whole chart. It helped my eula beat any enemy easily, plus the R5 for it is free.
Niche should have been its own tier. Cinnabar, prototype bow, whiteblind, and rust are all niche. The inazuma spear can also be called niche if it only works with thoma. Other weapons can probably also get stuffed into a seperate niche tier. Niche can be strong or mid, restricting it to only mid makes no sense.
Hakushin Ring in Mid Tier feels criminal. Like, it's definitely a bit short compared to TTDS, but it's great for Aggravate/Taser teams. And more importantly, it is for sure better than sonething like Rainslasher
His reasoning for Amenoma being in S tier is so confusing. BiS on ftp Ayaka, yet fails to mention that Festering is one of Furina's BiS ftp weapons. Haven't watched the full video but I don't want to cause of his wild takes so far.
Hakuson ring now has a use sine the buff to electro charge and if you have ororum even more of a buff so characters like heizou can use it and do really well as a driver for electro charge
sucks about the limited event weapons ): i was playing daily until i started school again and missed all the cute, tailored event weapons ;_; THE FISH was my biggest regret.
Stages of farming The Catch, I'm not doing it. Maybe just the base weapon... Ya know, refinement ranks don't take THAT long... If I world hop, it will go faster. Professional world hopper. This wasn't so bad. Maybe I'll just grab end of the line now... End of the Line sucks. That was a waste of time.

I had no idea about that blue stargliter claymore & I just recently got that one.. was kinda excited.. And now I fell off my bad dead laughing when u said "This thing suckx broooo☠️"
Sac weapons are better than Fav. weapons in many cases. You get the extra energy from both but Fav requires crits and the supports who can afford not running a damage weapon won't have that crit. I would put them to A or S tier at most.
Sac requires more field time and refinements. Supports are generally less stat hungry, so are actually prime candidates for being able to divert 1-2 rolls per artifact into crit rate. This will happen naturally in the course of upgrading test pieces, as the starting stats you want are only ER, crit rate, and bonus stat, and some of those will roll "wrong" into crit rate.
@@phoenixlau At 40% CR from substats which is a lot for a support and generally a waste of resin and fodder to reach when you could have stopped immediately with the right main stat (ER need is covered by the weapon already in most cases), Fav has 60%*0.4=24% chance to trigger while Sac has 40%. Sac's advantage also grows with refinements (40% to 80% is double chance while 60% to 100 is only 1.66 times the base value) while being batter even at R1. I agree on the field time though. Fav can get the advantage if you swap to the unit more often and can trigger it twice in a rotation however, but that also depends on the elements and amount of particles from skill uses.
So true. Especially early game. The artifacts there are so shit that you can only dream to get at least the set bonus you need not even right pieces... with right stats even worse rip bozo. My Diona had favge. Now she's wearing ceremonial bow. My Xinqou is better of with ceremonial because my atrifacts are THAT bad on him even after 5 month of game. Like why would i grind for support this much if my main DPS needs good artefacts??? The only one's who's wearing favonius are Kazuha (only because his EM pieces are so rare that i got ton of good flowers and feathers with additional crit rate while grinding), Bennet was (but switched to craftable from Sumeru), Layla (i have nothing better so favge is great). Favonius codex for Lisa is great but she is the only one that needs it this much. Nahida, Kokomi, Sucrose prefer ceremonial. Maybe even Barbruh if you have no cons and are desperate... The only exception is spear. There is only favonius, no ceremonial. So it is best.
hey eakes im brand new to genshin been playing 1 month and you have been my 100% go-to for pretty much everything. love the content and good luck with the move. when you're back do you think you could do a new one of these? I'm struggling to know which BP item to choose lol.
when doing these lists could you please show the names of the weapons on screen? some of us are newer players and don’t know how they’re spelled etc. love these tier lists, so helpful
As an obsessed Tartaglia main Rust is overrated on him. His main source of damage comes from his Melee stance charged attacks and by using this weapon your overall reducing his DPS by a considerable amount, if you're using him on International your better off with Stringless, Hamayumi or Blackcliff. Also putting every single Fav in a higher tier is based, that weapon set is so busted lol.
King's squire is not a charge attack weapon... I think you're mistaking it for the ibis pircer. King's squire is a support/em-buffing weapon. and just for that it should be A tier at least.
You are right and wrong. First, yes is not a CA weapon this is Irbis Piercer. Second is wrong, the effect of Kings Squire is not a team buff. The Kings Sqiuire gives only the user 60-120 EM when using E or Q, when switching out the buff disappears and it deals 100-200% Physical DMG to an opponent (20sec cooldown). Since EM buff cannot be snapshotted, the passive only works on onfield DPS like Tighnari, Ganyu or Childe but these have better options even on other F2P bows. Eakes' explanation of the effect was wrong, but the low placement is justified, because the Bow is dog water
@@krummesblech yes, but snapshotting skill or burst like Fischl or collei works well with this weapon. And yeah I mistook it for other sumeru weapons that drops a leaf for buff. Sometimes it's hard to build fischl with em and this solves that problem. 140 em at r5 is quite good. Like for my alt for example, I can't seem to get stringless and amos is the only 5* bow I have, which I'm not even using on tighnari because slingshot and Ibis piercer does more damage than amos. all i'm saying is, it's really hard to get an Em bow.
@@Angelcity1345 Yeah Kings is ok on Tighnari, but Irbis or Slingshot is better, so why waste materials xD If you don't have Stringless for Fischl and use her in Aggrevate I can at least recommend Slingshot as a cheap option. EM for Aggrevate Fischl is good but best is to stack as much crit as possible as that increases overall damage, EM just a piece of the pie. Unfortunately, all craftable bows are for onfield DPS with atk scaling , it's a real shame
Little thing, rust is not that good on childe as he will usually deal so much damage with burst and the n2c combo (normal attack twice then charged attack) that stringless is 10x better.
The brig grin I got for being a lucky Ayaka mistsplitter player 😁 I splurged to get her after I lost my 50/50 and got an early, so I decided to just try the weapon banner - got her sword on the first 10 pull 😏
Hot take: sac weapons (beside sac frag) are overrated. Cooldown on it is too long and it’s unreliable to the point where it’s barely usable before R3 if not before R5. Sac frag is good but only because on characters you’d use it primarily for its high EM substat and is almost never to address ER needs with passive like with every other sac weapon.
I have my hypercarries use 3 star weapons, Cyno with the White Tassle, Childe with the Slingshot, Nahida(Magic Guide, shes not really even a carry), ... Oh wait
Ok I have to take this list w a grain of salt bc crescent pike should 100% be in B tier. I also think that Amenoma Kageuchi and Festering Desire should be switched but maybe that’s bc I don’t have Ayaka so it just doesn’t have as much use to me.
For more hot takes twitch.tv/eakestv :)

@@Angelcity1345 no you cant snapshot the EM buff from the King‘s, so it’s pretty bad for SubDPS
@@krummesblech I forgot, they did remove snapshots for Em... It's still good on tighnari though. yeah it's pretty niche.
@@Angelcity1345 Yeah Kings is ok on Tighnari, but Irbis or Slingshot is better, so why waste materials xD
If you don't have Stringless for Fischl and use her in Aggrevate I can at least recommend Slingshot as a cheap option.
EM for Aggrevate Fischl is good but best is to stack as much crit as possible as that increases overall damage, EM just a piece of the pie.
Unfortunately, all craftable bows are for onfield DPS with atk scaling , it's a real shame
Imagine the bell will be good on Navia since most Fontaine characters scale on Hp
JUSTICE FOR ALBEDO THANK YOU (I was afraid you put it low)
Little thing, rust is not that good on childe as he will usually deal so much damage with burst and the n2c combo (normal attack twice then charged attack) that stringless is 10x better.
Oh I bet Diluc's mad with thw Favoniua Weapons getting their own swesome tier
The brig grin I got for being a lucky Ayaka mistsplitter player 😁 I splurged to get her after I lost my 50/50 and got an early, so I decided to just try the weapon banner - got her sword on the first 10 pull 😏
Thank you for separating this in type of weapon lol
Hot take: sac weapons (beside sac frag) are overrated.
Cooldown on it is too long and it’s unreliable to the point where it’s barely usable before R3 if not before R5.
Sac frag is good but only because on characters you’d use it primarily for its high EM substat and is almost never to address ER needs with passive like with every other sac weapon.
dude this tier list is funny asf
I have my hypercarries use 3 star weapons, Cyno with the White Tassle, Childe with the Slingshot, Nahida(Magic Guide, shes not really even a carry), ...
Oh wait
Bro did the bell dirty 😂😂😂
it's annoying that the dragon spine weapons suck when 100%-ing it is a major pain
11:28 that weapon pretty useful for yunjin
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yt Eakes 1v1 against Twitch Eakes when
I am both a lucky Mistsplitter/Verdict/Skyward Harp Player completely F2P along with Navia/Ayaka
I did 20 pulls and got both new units job done
Been playing for more than 2 years and still don't have fav sword 😅
I wish this had 3* as well for the comparison for the few good ones, and the s tier ttods
Not gonna lie dragonspine claymore on freminet is instant S tier
If this video was created after Furina release then Festering Desire would be in the broken category 😂😂
Truth : weapon tier will be determined by character only, not weapon itself😂
imagine whats he thinkin' for putting festering desire in A tire now that its the best f2p furina weapon.😆😆
Pls, I need widsith luck.. my wanderer is holding me at gunpoint cause I don't have c6 faruzan and even one widsith 😰
Same huhu I'm currently running Wanderer with Eye of Perception and no c6 Faruzan. So i use him with Bennett, Yelan and Layla.
4:57 what about yelan? All her damage is from the burst... I know atk % but for 4 star still
Compound bow has to be used with max stacked raw atk artifacts
I’m adventurer lvl 9 and started a week ago and I drew the sacrificial sword 🎉🎉🎉
I also just pulled lions roar
Spoilers alert ⚠️...
They will add new battle pass weapons in 4.0.
With the same base atk and substats with different passive
They’ll probably keep the old weapons and just add new options to chose from no?
Hilarious that Sword of Descension automatically gets into the D tier. It's actually decent early game, but yesh, turns to crap after that. Lmao.
Look i know walts is bad but like rhe face they made a fishel themed weapon for machine hun fishel is really funny
Ok I have to take this list w a grain of salt bc crescent pike should 100% be in B tier. I also think that Amenoma Kageuchi and Festering Desire should be switched but maybe that’s bc I don’t have Ayaka so it just doesn’t have as much use to me.
Kinda lost me at the Sacrificial Sword not being SS.
it shouldve been mid lmao, fav better
I like your my hero shirt whose your favorite character
