    Biedou is going to be available in the starglitter shop during Lantern Rite (feb)!
    If you have c0 Biedou, you can get her c2 this Lantern Rite if you have 34 starglitter!
    Alternatively, if you want to save your free 4-star for someone else, just pick her up for starglitter instead.
    34 star glitter is 7 wishes, so just make sure that's worth it to you and you already have enough wishes for your 5-stars.

Her charge attack vapes are like mini nukes I run her with furina yelan and bennett. She has a hard time hitting flying stuff and her attacks can be a bit janky though.

    one thing I'll forever yell into the void about is Healguang, or: Ninguang with Prototype Amber and healing bonus circlet.
    I use her in my very scuffed Noelle team. And with oceanhued, the extra damage is pretty neat and has helped me in abyss. You don't need to stack hp on her either, since it heals a percentage of max hp of the teammates. it's pretty neat. and a lot of fun.

    16:16 "If you don't have Xingqiu, get him. He's the best option by far."
    I agree with the second part, but I would (and I'm planning to) get him from Paimon Bargains in March. All because I have c0 Beidou at the moment and I need her at c2: one copy from Lantern Rite and second from the shop in February. She was last on a banner in 4.2, so we're not gonna see her any time soon.
    So, if you need another character from the selector and it's not going to be on a banner in the near future and you can't get it from the shop, I'd skip Xingqiu and go for that character instead. And got Xingqiu in March.

    • @Sergmanny46
      @Sergmanny46 8 месяцев назад

      Ningguang *can* do a lot of damage, but she demands a lot of investment. Not only she requires hefty artifact grind, but is also confined to double geo and double pyro, or triple geo with Gorou/Yun Jin and a flex, most likely Bennett or an off-field dps. On top of that, her base attack is so low that it's almost mandatory to use a 5* book on her. So yup, would not recommend her to anyone either, unless they are very willing to commit.

    4:45 other teams you can try with chongyun are
    - oven (burgeon with fridge mechanic - Chongyun, Thoma, Nahida (prototype amber), & Xingqiu is my recommendation unfortunately you really need nahida for this team to feel really good)
    - hyperfridge (hyperbloom with fridge mechanic - Chongyun, Kuki, DMC/Nahida, Xingqiu)
    admittedly Chongyun is very replaceable in this team by other most other cryo chars, though if you're using Chongyun that means you really like him as a character and he's actually doing something in these teams

  • @technicalleon
    @technicalleon 8 месяцев назад +13

    Thanks for the advice! Personally, though, I think I'm getting Ningguang. I'm only a month into Genshin, but coming from HSR, I find farming mats to be quite frustrating. So, I think I'll be focusing more on waifu collecting than actually building characters.
    Out of them all, I like Ningguang the most. Beidou's in second. Gameplay-wise, Yaoyao would've been the biggest priority since I have at least one copy of Xianqui and Xiangling. However, getting characters I like is a bigger priority for me. Besides, I'm a Navia main so I'll get some value out of Ningguang if I choose to build her.

    My current thoughts are either YaoYao (since I do not have her) or a Beidou con. Am pulling for Nahida, so it also depends on how my pulling goes and what 4* I get while pulling. (Thankfully, I managed to C6 XQ - my ONLY C6 character right now - when I was pulling for Neuvillette.)

      It depends on your pity and what your last character was (if it was a banner character or standard - meaning are you on a 50/50 or guaranteed). I saved a bunch because I'm on a 50/50 and there's no guarantee, but I'm still hoping I'll get lucky so the rest can back into my savings for the next character I want.
      And no worries - that was how I was when I first started, I'd pull on banners not with a plan in mind but just because I needed more characters at first - I only started planning out my wishing later on when I began having a good idea of what sort of teams I'd be building.@@imperialbeast8981

    It's strange how personal experience can affect perception on characters. I've only played a year but I don't like the XL/Bennett combo at all, but that's because I didn't get Bennett until after I had a C2 Nilou/Nahida bloom team (with Yaoyao as the healer, she's great), and XL/Bennett always felt clunky and unintuitive to me. But I got Yanfei really early in game and was my main carry up til I finished Inazuma, so I don't find her clunky to play at all. I have c6 Yaoyao and Xingqui (both great) already, so I'll pick up Gaming since I don't have him.

    Great Video Shark!
    I do have a question, although not about the 4 stars.
    Im torn between pulling for Raiden or Nahida. I do have a Yaoyao and Fishl. and that basically is my entire Dendro and Electro roster. (i do have Kujo Sara on c4 already, but i really dislike playing her...)
    I have like 17 Hydro characters including Neuvilette, Ayato, Mona, Candace, Yelan, Xinque (c6), barbara etc etc etc. like Hoyoverse finds it funny to only give me Hydro characters.
    So on the current Raiden banner im not really looking for the 4 stars... but i do want Raiden. And for the next Banner, with Nahida, i dont know the 4 stars. So that is more tempting atm... Although i dont think i have many characters that work well with Nahida...
    Im also going into surgery and might even miss out on the entire lantern event, as my surgery date is set to 31e and ill basically lose my right arm for a while...
    So, any jawsome advice?

      I'm sure your surgery will go fine, we'll pulling for you. :)
      To your query: Raiden or Nahida... I'd say Nahida.
      Why? Nahida is the only dendro support character you'll ever "need". She unlocks all dendro teams for you unlike anyone else. Nahida has no placeholder. There's no one like her in the game.
      Raiden is great, don't get me wrong. I still use Raiden National for the Abyss. But Kuki Shinobu and Fischl are decent off-field electro supports along with Beidou. They're not as good as Raiden, but they're satisfactory placeholders until you can get a Raiden.
      If you can afford the wishes - get both Raiden and Nahida. If you can only afford one, Nahida.

      If u have primos for only 1 character out of raiden and nahida then go for nahida. But since both character r good in the end , your account will be good in either of choice .
      I would say go for nahida, raiden is good dont get me wrong but tbh raiden is not THAT good at c0 speically hoyo released so many good 5 star character in fontain.
      IN THE END , GO FOR NAHIDA, SAVE PRIMOS, THEN IF U DONT HAVE KAZUHA THEN GO FOR HIM, HE WILL SOON GET HIS RESUN.

    tip : choose a character with an element you lack ,for example i only had noelle with geo and had many characters with every other element , or you could go with a character that will be a good support for your dps , for example gaming and xingiu , or if you don't have a dendro character choose yaoyao but i already had nahida so i didn't really feel like choosing yaoyao
    also at the end of the day you can always get these all by wishing easily so don't regret your choice too much!

She's insanely fun, easy and satisfying to play, but by no means a must pick since most pyro 5* are also dps and have higher scalings

    I have C3 Xiangling but don't have Xinque...quite a hard decision for me. C4 Xiangling will make my Raiden overload team feel sooo much nicer as I find her burst to last pretty short. At the same time, Xinque will open up more teams for me to use. Problem is that I have farm his materials and his artifacts which I'm still currently refining my current teams.

      Xingque is a must have if u want to bring out the max potential of hyperbloom and and vaporize teams,and Xiangling vaporize is better that overload.unless u have yelan i think xingque c0 is way better than Xiangling c4

    yanfei is literally my main since i started genshin, i relied on her so much that i can't make a team without her. i do have zhongli and ayaka but she out deals all of their dmg even with her charged attack, but i do respect your opinion.

    Thank you😅 I have no idea what I'm doing and was like who do I get. The breakdown helped me choose for YaoYao.

    That would be nice, rank system that has all breakpoint constalations on it ^^
    Honestly i have c1 cook girl and c2 watter boy, will probably go with girl to get closer to c4 (2 contelations is easier to get then 3 when wishing, unless you are beido and shoot for c8 from c2 during it -.-)

    Prior to that, I already had C6 Fischl, which is my best sub-DPS.
    I already finished off all constellations for Beidou and Xingqiu, so I’ll choose Gaming.
    However, my Xiangling is currently at C2 on my side account as of now.
