    What are you looking for in a new shielder in WuWa?
    I'd love a new 5* shielder who can give similar buffs to Verina or Baizhi with a shield and off-field damage that scales off HP.
    I'm thinking Yuanwu SuperMAX.

    @kyori75 Месяц назад +25

    I think the main reason why shielders is not as popular because (to most players) shielders need time if not a long time to get their shield up, and if they get a heavy hit during that time, the shield is gone and have to start from 0 again. The arguement of knowing when to setup shield or enemy movement(tricky if many enemy mobs present) is not so valid because if every players know those well, they can surely just use 1 character solo all the way.
    So yes, be it using a healer or a shielder, knowing the game better definitely helps more than just siding with one or the other.

      Please... game is NOT about repeating rotations calculated by Excel Impact players who call themselves theorycrafters. Look how characters work in practice. It doesn't matter that they take more time on-field, when during that time they can be more helpful with parrying or crowd control. As for the last - not only Jianxin, Taoqi can fairly easily push and stagger whole group of enemies. They can also dish out not little damage. They just need more investment for it, especially Taoqi - she very much needs high character level, when players will be reaching max levels then Taoqi's value will rise much, she is a late bloomer.

      Adding on MarionFR comment about spreadsheet, spreadsheet are only good if a game mode etc requires you a DMG/Stats check and you don't have alot of resourrces to level up all char. the same.
      For example i like playing Jinhsi with Yuanwu and Yangyang (both S6 not level 80) because i want to onfield Jinhsi more, this team is basically QTE composition. half of the time Yangyang is onfield to trigger concerto for Jinhsi repeat till she has full forte, its actually fun to simply press the Skill after Intro instant combo, Yuanwu just putting down lightning rod,and triggering heal for bellborne buff,shield but this composition barely clears the last spectro tower (in 3min mark) so i needed to play Taoqi for that Resonance Skill buff.
      In short all im saying is you can take advantage of some char. good intro/outro buff (especially if you got some 4 star that is S6) adding you can build the char with right echo or weapon, ex. if you plan Taoqi to be just a support buffer for that good Resonance Skill buff doesn't matter if she requires more onfield as the trade is good for other char. that has nuke skills ex. Jinhsi, then build Taoqi with Concerto regen.
      Put 3*3 echo with Energy Regen and slap a Discord weapon on her and if you got a Discord weap that has 5 dupes feed into it, it gives big concerto regen when you skill, so yeah, if the resources isn't very limited i definitely would want to experiment on team composition that isn't meta but rather feel pretty good to play than focusing on DMG per screenshot.

  • @sotruwu

    Massive misunderstanding here is that no one picks Verina for heals. She is a buffer. A far more efficient buffer than any1 in the game (team wide buffs + short on-field duration). Just cause Taoqi gives a higher screenshot number doesn't make her better
    Shields won't be valuable in this game unless:
    1. You have skill issue
    2. we get a shielder that buffs AND provides anti-interruption. this would be broken.
    (Currently only Yuanwu provides team wide anti-interruption + shields, but has no team outro buff)
    shields mean nothing if you get staggered as you're at a dps loss for not dodging anyways.
    End of the day none of this matters as the game is not difficult enough for it too. Once ppl level cap the challenge that the game currently poses will be non existent

      To be correct, beta cal was good, but the needs in official made him rely more harder on yinlin and rely more on timing your attacks then able to gun hoe despite the short period to pop and short time to do dps that ruined him a lot.
      If maybe his e skill spam wasn’t so necessary for rotations and either require far less presses or so on, then he could still be stonks as his beta ver.
      Right now, he basically can be seen as needing a high investment of multiple 5 stars due to the ‘same problems’ that yinlang has, except instead of basic combo chains, it’s resonance skill chains.

    Unless you have no one else available (Yinlin/Yuanwu) try not to use Taoqi with Jinhsi. Use her on other teams if you really like Taoqi.

    Shields are arguably better than heals, but healers are, imo, currently better than shielders. It's really hard to make an argument that Taoqi is better than Verina for Jinhsi, or that Taoqi is a better support character than Verina overall.
    Yuanwu has been amazing for me, but that's in addition to Verina, since they cap my Jinhsi in one rotation and take almost no field time. Taoqi would take away from that, and make me lost out on stacks, on top of her Skill DMG buff getting diluted by all the other +DMG buffs Jinhsi already gets meaning that the difference ends up being less than assumed. Verina's buff also matter more if you're using a DPS more oriented hybrid.
    Jianxin currently takes too much field time to build forte and get her max shield, but her Sequence Nodes look like they heavily address that. Too bad it'll take a few years to get them...
    So yeah, in a vacuum, Shields > Heals, but the characters themselves are another story, more cons than pros imo.

      @saintontas  21 день назад

      You bring up great points. I'm personally waiting for a 5* shielder who has the same buffing/rotation speed as Verina but provides a shield instead of healing - I think this type of support character is one that will let players really push the limits of rotations and have an even higher skillcap across gameplay.

    I think the worst part about shields is that you can still get knock backed by the enemy. At least for me. The value a shield grants is good but I still have to dodge attacks in order to keep attacking. So when I have to dodge anyway I take the healer + RG-echo set, get the buffs and if I get hit, I will heal myself back up. The only character who can provide both is Jianxin and I really like her (her game play is good as well:) ). I know what you are trying to say and I agree at some point but in reality I think its pretty hard to really benefit completely from it. Games like Genshin did it better in my opinion where a shield lets you tank damage but also prevents you from getting knock backed (I don't want a Zhongli shield to tank every hit, however for the hits the shield is able to tank I should get the resistance to interruption).

    • @MarionFR
      @MarionFR Месяц назад +12

      Your comparison to Genshin is missed. Thing about combining shields with interruption resistance is - that just makes shields waaaaay better than healing. Look how much they did to bring the balance - shielders provide very little in comparison to healers, putting sustain aside. And... that was still not enough! Look how they were constantly making healing needed and better - by adding HP draining which ignores shields, enemies spawning shields if you have a shield... artifacts for healers, finally - Furina... Conclusion - you are wrong, shields designed like this are just broken, plus Genshin is a much different game at the end of the day. But you do have some point about shields in WuWa. I would say - maybe they could provide interruption res limited to one - three hits, or... maybe we will be getting characters with interruption resistance and high synergy with shielders? Let's also not forget Yuanwu who is already a shielder with interruption resistance... Just on s4, I don't know how he works exactly.

    • @daisukeshinji4061
      @daisukeshinji4061 Месяц назад +1

      Yeah I should have specified it more, you are right. Genshin didnt made it perfectly as well. I just wanted to tell in which direction I wanted to go. I think something in between would be good. I would accept a Knock back when I get hit by a big hit, but at least let me fight against these normal human like dudes without having the fear that I fly away if I dont dodge. The shields also do not have to hit high numbers to tank for Days. And as you said, I really dont want a "Zhongli situation" where shields are just so much better than anything else. However for me heals in WuWa are just so much better and versatile than Shields atm that I dont consider using shields except for Jianxin who can do both. A resistance to interruption would be a huge step in the direction of balancing these features (Calcharo likes this). Other option would be simething like an echo-set which provides buffs by giving a shield (with the risk of losing it for example). At least thats what I think.
      And I do not want special characters (in the future) who can give the resistance. I do not like this kinda concept where some characters get favoured and some do not.

    In games, damage reduction and prevention has always been more favourable later on in game cycles.
    Look at Genshin and Honkai Star Rail. Healers were valued higher early on, because of how easy they were to use for their investment levels. As games and mechanics progressed, damage reduction and prevention became more prominent as enemy damage had begun to rise.
    In timed content, shields hold higher value as they will let you tank attacks rather than waste time avoiding them.

    • @nobody-xh6ii
      @nobody-xh6ii 18 дней назад

      Healers are equally valued now due to the fact alot of them do healing + other things. Baizhu for example who does healing + inteurption resist + application + buffing. Charlotte for application + healing. Kokomi for healing + aoe application. Cheveruse for buffing + healing.
      Some healers like noelle are not as valued unless you are using furina and noelle together because noelle's a straight dps. Or how bad diona is in both shielding and healing. Or how terrible barbara is because her E not only gives you hydro and causes you to freeze to death so she's too burst reliant to make her valuable in anything. same issue with benny who heals but causes you to die because of the pyro application he puts over your head so with more enemies with high EM stats coming out he gets you killed by a vape/melt easily. Or overloaded to death

    I agree with this 100%. Shielders are more valuable than healers. Even if your Verina has the best echoes, she can't help you from getting killed in one hit. It just so happens that the healers right now have better damage amplification than the shielders, and require lesser field time.
