      Lisa probably does do a lot better. So that's a good point. I didn't build her though because the whole unprovoked and constantly repeated "cutie" thing really turned me off.
      There's 17 5* options on the standard banner. I wouldn't call getting qiqi a great possibility. And if that's her only use, I don't think she's worth it to level. I thankfully still haven't gotten her.
      I built Bennett because I got him early and he wouldn't be a wasted investment later in the game. But I had trouble getting enough energy recharge early in the game and with him at c0 and I got vaporized to death in his burst. I was able to return to the oceanid after getting Yoimiya as my first limited 5*.

    I feel like he's one of those characters that's so good that it's actually bad for the long term health of the game since it makes him the default Hydro character for a lot of teams, so it's kind of nice that they're designing characters that specifically don't work with him. My personal wish is that he doesn't work well with Furina at all.

    • @wellwellwell881
      @wellwellwell881 10 месяцев назад +15

      It's good and bad to have those kinds of characters. It provides a stable f2p environment to enjoy the game up to its hardest content, but it also sets the bar for what a good character in the role is, which can be boring if you don't especially like that specific character. The fact that Yelan needs at least c2 to do better than him in some teams, and is still worse in others because of the lack of defensive utility, despite being a limited 5*, says too much. The hydro archon doesn't even seem like she'll be stronger than him in a lot of teams and will instead be her own archetype because of the healing requirements. His existence made Candace useless, despite her having a decent kit if you look at it in a vacuum. That said, I have never used him because I don't like his design, and I still cleared 36* abyss consistently for years. Despite how good he is, he's still not required.

    two little corrections: his rainswords don't go away while in his burst, so the only thing his C1 gives is a tiny bit more healing and I guess a tiny bit more reliable resistance to interruption. also external damage bonus buffs like kazuha do not affect his damage reduction.

    • @guiscardaddams8745
      @guiscardaddams8745 10 месяцев назад

      And one more, the new Battle pass weapon requires tye character to be on field to trigger the Crit rate buff, so it's not any better than the black sword.

    • @verzetta
      @verzetta 10 месяцев назад +3

      @@guiscardaddams8745 It's much better actually, due to the unconditional 16-32% DMG bonus for both skill and burst. The Crit Rate buff needs to be triggered on-field, but a C4+ Xingqiu doing Q+normal+E+(normal)+swap or something like that can trigger 2-5 rainswords which means 2-4 stacks of Crit Rate buff for his burst without having to extend on-field presence, so it's pretty good.
      For Xingqiu, R1 Wolf-Fang deals similar damage as R1 Skyward Blade. R5 Wolf-Fang deals similar damage as R1 Haran and R1 Mistsplitter.
      The Black Sword has same Base ATK (510) and Crit stat (27.6CR) but its passive offers nothing beneficial for Xingqiu.

    • @mauronoacontaldomurgia8476
      @mauronoacontaldomurgia8476 10 месяцев назад +2

      It gives also more interruption resistance in a way, because with 3 rainswords your pg is not full covered in every angle, but with 4 it is. (Yes if you get hit by something where there is no rainsword you get staggered, so with 4 rainswords it's impossible to get staggered by mid-stagger attacks while with 3 you can still get staggered if you are unlucky)

      @@guiscardaddams8745 I think losing 8-10 seconds in a strict 18-20s rotation's worth of 8-16% Crit Rate is still acceptable, at least for me, since most of the time his primary role is as hydro applicator (sub-dps is secondary and usually deals much less damage in comparison to the team's main-dps), although probably we can just adjust his base Crit Rate a bit (not too low)

    Once I got c4, I always did burst first and then skill because it makes the skill do 50% more damage. I'd just stay on Xingqiu and normal attack a little to make sure he'd still catch the particles. But I also crowned Xingqiu's skill, so that's a high investment for a lot of people.

    One of the two characters I wish would be deleted from the game.
    Xingqui is ridiculously overpowered, overused and one of the "MOST BORING" units because of that. With Hydro application, dmg reduction, healing, interrupt resistance etc. it's just to much.
    Especially for a 4* character and I'm glad that Hoyo is finally taking a new path and releasing onfield characters that don't mesh with normal attacks.
    The other is Kazuha. Horribly unbalanced unit. DMG Bonus, insane grouping and res shred. To this day I don't know what the developers were thinking with these two characters.

      Someone who speaks out of my mind. I still use Kazuha occasionally for mono teams. I think this is his best slot but I wouldn't mind if his DMG buff was limited to mono teams or something, to make him more balanced.
      As for Xingqiu, I rarely use him anymore. As a 4* alternative, I often take Candace with me instead, even if her Hydro application doesn't come close to Xingqui's. The block/parry mechanic makes her gameplay much more fun and unique.

    I always love to see the simps raging that Yelan is better in comments. He was so great, they just made a side grade copy of him into a limited 5*. Yelans best role is to literally just be a 2nd Xingqiu. And they work great together so it’s funny that people thought Xingqiu would get replaced.

    13:50 I found Nilou just fine for current F12 second half even without Xingqiu. Actually I used him in first half together with Yoimiya. But I guess current Abyss is just easy, I even used my Nilou team in chambers with dendro specters and just Nilou/Kokomi's hydro DPS were enough to get rid of them. Though I guess I could write it up to the fact that I leveled up all my Nilou's talents to 8 so she actually can do damage beside her bloom mechanic.

      @@blastzd His selling point? Why are you changing the conversation? You claimed he is the best. Not he has a selling point. A lot of characters have good parts about them.
      If you think he's stronger than Nahida at any investment level, you're insane. Whether you look at comparisons with other characters they could possibly be replaced with or just look at their own individual raw numbers, Nahida clearly wins. Xingqiu could be replaced with Yelan much easier than anyone can replace Nahida. And in raw numbers, Nahida has a way lower energy requirement while also being less burst reliant, way better aoe damage and elemental application, has an element that less enemies are resistant to and has arguably better reactions (aggravate > vape), provides a large EM buff to an ally, and gives a teamwide dendro reaction buff at c2, which you can nearly get if you are able to get c6 Xingqiu. And of course if you happen to go further than c2 on her, she just gets a bigger lead.
      Xingqiu does cap at mid investment. He's a 4 star character. Most f2p players that have played a while get him to c6. Its very possible to have a greater amount of resources than it takes to c6 him. Most f2p players that have played longer than a while or anybody who even just gets welkins for a while would go further with him if he had more than 6 constellations. But he doesn't. He caps out at mid investment. That's a simple fact.
      If we compare with Yelan, she is better before he has c6, a little worse after his c6 and before her c2, roughly equal and maybe edging at slightly better up to c4, and then blows him out of the water at c6. If you look at the whole picture, she has a slight edge for combat. The region where you get Xingqiu up to c2 before you even acquire Yelan's c0 can't be counted because she doesn't exist for there to be a comparison at that point. There's no reason to focus on the narrow range between Xingqiu being c6 and Yelan only being c1 and not quite c2. She also provides more utility for playing the rest of the game that exists outside of the abyss. That's part of 'best' too if you don't specify 'best for abyss' in your sentence.
