We're Finally Making Some HUGE Upgrades [Genshin Impact Swords Only]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- We've faced numerous challenges in our Swords Only playthrough, like the archery challenge, the Electro Monument conundrum, and many more. But this may in fact be the worst of any of them... as it's the only one to make me... give up?
Sapwood Blade? Leveling Weapons? Maxing Character's Ascension Levels? Check, check, and check. This is probably the most upgrades the Swords Only account has gotten in a long time.
Swords Only in Genshin Impact can be quite challenging at times. However, as the self-proclaimed master of "Weapon" Only challenges in this game, I am able to best any obstacle (probably).
HoYoVerse put out a tweet saying "Polearm Impact"... So I decided to take it upon myself to make a new account, but only use characters who wield a sword because absolutely nobody asked me to.

Congratulations on getting through that Aranara challenge and forging the sword Java! Your videos have been literally my only source of serotonin during my finals and now I’ve apparently gotten one of the highest scores! So thank you for this genuine, painful and entertaining content
bruh watch it first
Yooo congrats on your results
Sheesh congo
@@Parthgamer123 Watch what first?
@@lilani__.01 bro the guy thought she was saying completing the entire quest xd
Seeing Java get so many wins on this episode was super refreshing, mostly because it actually affected his mood, it’s like one of those “satisfying Genshin moments” compilations
It would be really interesting to see you make a Nilou team in the future. Nilou, Alhaitham, Xingqiu, and Dendro Lumine could all make a pretty good team!
That's a good idea
ooo that nilou bloom team sounds so good!!! i hope he will try that. but there’s no sword dedicated healer but he’ll think about it lol
Nilou team without heals is kind of a suicide lol
yep, and then nilou instantly dies
@@envy_342 build xingqiu healer 💀
I like the change that you are gocusing on talent and character level materials than artifacts. I mean it would be fine every now and then to do artifact farming, but artifact luck is annoying since you rarely get the artifacts you want.
Ah yes, Gocusing
And also artifacts are not a guaranteed upgrade, but talents and ascensions are guaranteed upgrades
@@Devilboy_1029 what, you don't Gocus on your English exams too?
If you're farming handguards and ley lines, I suggest farming Inazuma leylines as that's the best way to get them. You'll also be passively collecting specter and hoarder coin drops for Kuki and XQ
Swords only is sooo nostalgic... It's my favourite series on this channel
i really like that you’re starting to focus on non-artifacts while upgrading characters!!! its so satisfying to see all the characters being lvl 81/90. i agree, next video you should go farm for their talent books. after everyone is lvl 81 and talents 8/8/8, artifacts can come in.
don't forget level 90 weapons as well
you can shoot down the flying ruin drakes by using the wind-blessed harpastum that you get from the souvenir shop from mondstadt
this is so satisfying. leveling chars, talents & weapons is legit my favorite part of the gameplay. it's so satisfying to make my faves strong and much more reliable than artifact farming lmaoo
Fun fact 4pc glad is basically as good as 4pc HoD for Ayato. That feather would be perfect for him with no wasted stats.
might even be better if ur ping isn't too good
@@eulalord9617 the ping issue is with 4pc echoes
@@abdelrahmantarek7929 srry I probley read that wrong. Most of the time I watch youtube at like 3 am 😅
Congrats on acquiring the blade and finally beating that domain!
And focusing on permanent upgrades over luck-based ones is definitely a better idea.
I really feel happy seeing this much progress and basically no suffering in this video.
It’s my birthday today, so happy you could upload on it! 🎉 love your vids, I could never persevere this much 😅
2:06I heard that Ayaka's charge attack has an unexpectedly long effective distance against vertically oriented targets
18:57Actually, it's better suited to Ayato
Please do a character review. You are a very casual player whose builds many people can relate to.
We all have seen Zyox,Zajef etc builds but those are just way too hypothetical and dedicated. You can also tell the aspects of ease of builds which are generally not considered.
Love from India❤️
Yeah , I would love that...
We all know who is gonna be on top of that list - Raiden Shogun
So excited to see someone do this and actually see the failed attempts too lol
so true that's my fave part 🤝
Besties wake up, new Java video🤲🏻
I'm so happy u got the sword for Benny and that ur actually using him despite not liking his gameplay,,,He's my fav character🥺
And i agree with the whole talents/exp mats>>>>artifacts
As someone who has been in the dendro domain since before Cyno's *first* banner farming for him (and Al-Haitham), swapping to talents and bosses is def the better (and less insanity inducing) option. And I'm a baby whale so that's months of max refreshing as well....
Enjoyed the episode. It also took me a bit to find the Aranara that sold the blueprint and when I did, I didn't have any of the trade things. As a major Layla enjoyer, I can't wait to see her more built. I think you have to complete the Sumeru quests and Albedo quest to start windblume. Otherwise talking to Katheryne there would have started the event. Looking forward to more 🎉
DAWG seeing him finally able to do the puzzle was so incredibly satisfying
Finally an episode without pain and suffering. And good luck those rolls on that feather was niceee
The adventure handbook lists where you can obtain.. anything (except specialties). Under enemies.. lists all enemies and what they drop and navigates to them. I feel like so many people don't know this feature exists.
There is a limit to how many enemies of one kind it will show you which is why Java first went for the spots he knew off the top of his head.
@@lyswenn I'm aware of this, I wish I showed more, but that's what adventuring is for
Glad to see you have gotten the sword. I hope you can absolutely crush your future obstacles and enemies.
Lol the shame an guilt in Java’s voice when he got to nilou an she gave him the side eye while eating her snack like she was saying ‘yea I’m still here jerk’
Congrats on Beating the longest quest Java! I love this series so much ! I hope you continue it ❤❤
You can use the wind blessed harpastum to down the ruin Drake's buy it from marjari in mondstat
this series has come a long way. Hope you're doing good Java :)
You got the blade Pog!!!! Also, for weapon enhancement, I have a question, do you toss the 4-star weapons that aren't swords into sword weapon exp? I mean you wouldn't be needing them I don't think since it's swords only
Maybe it's the rainy day fund, when all the ores are gone?
Since you're not using any other weapons than swords, you can covert the other 4 star weapons into the crystals!
Umm how?
@@jamin3131 you would unlock them first and then when you choose what to upgrade the weapon with you would choose the one you unlocked
Please please try to get all talents to 9 where necessary and just guaranteed upgrades in general as opposed to rug (artifacts )
one suggestion for u is to bring back the character specific episodes theyre fun to watch and u end up making a lot of progress
Thank you for showing, not telling, the point of Ascend characters and Upgrade Talents. You are correct: artifacts can be a time sink of failure over time. You dont lose RNG on ascensions nor talents. I will now reprioritize Ley Line resin spending and get my characters to 81's (Yes i like 81.. 85 for EM based characters)
Never 90 so you don't ever stop getting xp and 81 so you can tell them apart from characters you need to ascend one more time
@@J.sh_CDN ^ This
Seeing you make so much progress on your characters brought back my motivation to raise mine as well. I now have 34 fully built characters, 3 in-progress and 12 unbuilt. The only thing that's holding me back from raising them faster is the weekly boss drops because those 3 in-progress are all Sumeru characters. 💀
You have the right mindset Mr. TheCup it’s typically best to get guaranteed upgrades like levels, weapons, and talents before artifacts which are RNG.
Life is not the same without there wonderful videos 😊
Hi Java, I'm actually doing a Swords only challenge myself, although I'm actually not that far (only 6 characters, all of them aren't fully leveled) I really think you're the main inspiration to me starting one when I did. Well, that's all I really wanted to say, thank you for making this content and I hope you enjoy the rest of your swords/catalyst only runs ^^
PS, Are you gonna try going for c1 Ayaka when her banner is out? Or are you just waiting for a new 5 star sword user?
Dang i love farming/ upgrading episodes like this, its so satisfying - good job Java!
congrats on finally passing that aranara quest to get the sword lmaoo It was really entertaining. Love your vids man ^^
Love the swords only content, especially the puzzle solving that becomes challenging without bows lol
i enjoy your videos, java!! congrats on all the things you did in this episode of the series :'D
priority in resurce management should allways be Weapon, Talents (and with these level-up's), and then artifacts. There are some character where the order is different and those are all the characters who scale on transformative reactions, like anemo characters with the main purpose to swirl, hyperbloom and burgeon triggerer who want as much em as possible and leveled to 90 and Hp&def scalers who don't mind if their weapon isn't maxed
I don't mind rewatching the whole swords only at this point
I love this series and it’s good you upgrading your characters
Thanks to this, I managed to find this NPC and claim several blueprints. Thank you!
That challenge solving and all the upgrades made was amazing!
I haven't farmed artifacts in a year since I level all my characters/weapons/talents and dump the terrible gladiator/wanderer pieces into the strongbox and have no problems clearing anything but Max starring floor 12 of the abyss. It's fun being able to use pretty much anyone you want rather than just a handful of characters with meta artifacts (and I don't miss the disappointment of a week's worth of resin leading to no good artifacts).
That's what I decided to do when I hit ar 56 but I just decided to focus on 4 teams for my abyss but I'm soon ar57 and I'm still not done with farming talents, weapons and ascension mats 😮💨
Ask Qiqi for good luck on your artifact farming, you'll also be needing to close ur eyes this gave me good artifacts and less garbage. You can also act like Qiqi when she's using her burst and say "Life goes on." you have to put an Qiqi emotion on it. I used this and I just finished farming Qiqi's artifacts yesterday. (This also works in Strongbox.)
bro do u never get tired of this
was not expecting you to upload another swordsonly video so shortly after the previous.... "incident" but i most certainly can't complain!
i think you should use the other 4 star weapons that aren’t swords as leveling materials
I feel credit ought to be given to Moosashi.
Omg he actually did something useful to the account, oh how impressed I am
Ah it's so satisfying to see the characters and weapons level up!
I have a headache from yesterday and when I watch ur videos they go away SO MY NEW BROTHER and keep the content up ur the best and ur the only reason I played genshin
I love watching these videos so much. These videos are great. Keep up the good work and you also inspired me to make my own catalyst only
Wow that’s a lot of progress for so many characters! I’ve had my account for a year almost and only have one character level 90 😅
ok ima bw honest these vids where you can improve so much are so satisfying to watch
The time you said „ i guess i have to do a lot of ley lines on this acc“ i was so feeling it TT
Congratulations on getting through the challenges ❤️
You literally have more progress than my whole Genshin Impact career in this video 🥴🥴
I agree with you so much when it comes to artefacts. It's just nonefficient but you have to be careful. I am speaking from an experience. You may end up with a high AR and high world level that don't much the level of your characters because you are underpowered. My account now has so many characters I can't use because I don't have the artifacts for them.
the way i smiled teeth and gums seeing the new java vid 😭😭
amazing vid as always :)))
AHHHH YES ANOTHER JAVA VID!
This video was very satisfying. All those ascensions and getting the sword 🗡️ for Benny really made my day
15:13 this is so true. Like with artifact rolls, some day, everything rolls into crits , and someday(or most of the days) it rolls trash.
14:39 "Their mom said that it was his time using it".
Also their mom: 💀
Had to say it, sorry ;(
underrated comment lol
when it ended i was like was it that short? then i saw it was 20 minutes wow time is really fast when watching java
i would love to see another java podcast just 1 hour 30 min is enough
i was playing danganronpa 2 but this matters more
Your casual reaction to rolling a 40 crit value artifact with attack percent is insane to me
Hi! ilove those kind of series so much. Thank u for this content!
I'm a ground type player too and Ayato's skill can usually take care of those flying enemies. I use hyperbloom these days and they still do fine. The only time I actually use bows is on my brother's account, and Kokomi's clam bubble is basically melee anyway.
Hi! So I hear you want to make a dps layla? If you don’t mind I think this’ll help (it’s the build I use)
2pc Blizzard
2pc Tenacity
Hp Goblet
Harbinger of Dawn actually works really well for her too!
Depending on Crit ratio you want a cd or cr circlet
(I run Cd circlet)
My ratio is 76/209 with weapon passive
(R5 HoD)
Either atk or hp time piece works!
I learned skill and NA are most useful for her and you want to run a more phys setup (still use cryo dmg bc shield and burst help give extra) do yes you can use Raiden with her lmao
Hope this helped
-A Layla main
You know that your a lucky man when you gen a golden chunk from a weekly boss
Oh my God I did not know I could convert the billets to the other one I never thought to check that is so useful
The massive upgrade was so satisfying
Sorry for writing a book but I needed to put an example...
Artifacts are SUPER important but if you don't have you characters fully leveled, you'll see a noticeable increase in damage if the talents are fully leveled along with weapons and character level. I gave my Xiao a 60 crit rate 140 crit dmg build, and at level 70 with all level 4 talents he only hit around 10-13k with bennet and faruzan, and after taking him to level 90 with all level 7 talents I got him to hit for almost 30k, so if you're looking for a bit of a guaranteed damage boost, ignoring artifacts for a little while won't hurt you too bad.
Against flying ones you can use Keqing. Her hold E can hit their weak points and immobilize/bring them down, just like bows.
I just realized the swords only logo was a spin off to the only fans one.
I love these vids, where you just level up characters is so relaxing ☺️
I LOVE THIS SERIES SM
imo I'd build Nilou either for Freeze with Ayaka or for Hyperbloom with Al Haitham, but in those teams she won't have her passive so just use a support set and make her be a burst support (don't use tenacity of the millelith because it doesn't work with her ring), her hydro app is decent in a ring around her so it could be passable with a melee unit
farming talents is a great change, i'm also doing that in my (AR 60 and totally capable of clearing abyss however) account, i'm gonna triple crown nahida soon after procastinating on crowns and just use the resin on guaranteed upgrades now that there are no units that interest me and it's just building and getting guaranteed upgrades for the ones i already have
also the part of the dendro rings reminds me of why i started watching your content in the first place, congrats on that!
Amazing job on the aranara challange (not damage shaming anyone) your ayaka should be doing 10k charged each hit
Ooh, very productive indeed! That was a satisfying video. Fun to see so much progress.
Java there is one item u can buy from Marjorie in mondstadt -a ball- u can aim it on the flying ruin drake for example and it's gonna fall down
I love this series so much
Let's go!
I try to get talents level 9 before really farm for artifacts, before they can use the rainbow crit build and it's fine
it would be interesting to see u do a hyper bloom team with nilou alhaitam kuki and either dendro mc or xingqiu!!!
Hyperbloom with nilou?
U cqn make a perfect team with alhaitham, Kuki and xingqiu (the third character is very flexible)
java sounded so happy in this video
If you want to bring down the flying ruin dinos
You can actually use the ball gadget to shoot down the wing core thingies
Hey so I have a question for you Java. First of all big fan of your vids but do you think you will be pulling for Ayaka on the next banner for her cons? (I don’t expect you to see my comment though) Keep up the good work!
You broke the sword only rule! You let the lady fight in the quest WITHOUT A SWORD
Hey Java, since you started getting better upgrades to your character i thought that you might also want to try to do the spiral abyss soon so i came up with two team you might want to try.
First team would be a simple Hyperbloom team with Alhaitham ( Main dps ) Kuki ( Healer + Hyperbloom Dmg ) Xingqiu ( Sub-Dps ) and Dendro traveler ( Support ).
For the second team you could try
a simole freeze team with Ayaka ( Main dps ) Ayato ( Subdps + Hydro applicator for Freeze ) Kazuha ( Support ) and Layla ( Shielder )
Hope this helps and good luck farming
This was honestly a nice video since I’ve been doing the same on all my accounts as well
As soon as Java said “Their mom said it was his turn to use it.” I was like 👁️👄👁️ their mom & is dead-
I love these videos where do farming. Definetly liking this one
This is the most productive I’ve seen Java.
When will spells Only will get its development?
Finally I catched up to the latest part in a few days
Now brb gonna start catalyst only
This has motivated me to ascend my Ayaka after 1 year
I'm convinced from how Java reacted to Nilou he completed forgot she existed
