      I think it's more likely that we'll get that in Snezhnaya or Khaenri'ah. Snezhnaya because Superconduct is the "Physical" reaction and is strong against human enemies like the Fatui, so it makes sense in a region built around a Cryo character, (probably with off-field application,) like the Tsaritsa. And Khaenri'ah has no associated element, so it makes sense for building "element agnostic" characters like physical.

      ​@@normal6483it would happen in natlan though. Sumeru had more HP scalers and healers than Fontaine and Fontaine has more atk scalers than we had in pre-Sumeru, post release. So I assume Natlan would have more characters that fit Schneznaya's theme than Schneznaya. So we may see more cryo characters in Natlan and more crit boosting or scaling characters.

  • @NonMeta_
    @NonMeta_ Месяц назад +66

    For people that actually main the characters, we always find ways to play them. I've played Yoimiya on Mono-Pyro, Vape, Overvape, Burning, Burgeon, Overload, Melt, and Melt/Vape/Freeze. I've seen people say they want something different for Pyro but they never elaborate. To me the only things pyro is missing is; another reliable off-field pyro applicator like Xiangling or another Bennett/Chevreuse. It's not like the DPS from other elements are anymore versatile than pyro. They're all locked into whatever reactions their elements limit them to.

    • @NLwino
      @NLwino Месяц назад +8

      Having multiple characters being able to do the same role is fine, as long as they feel different to play. In that regard all pyro DPSers so far are fine. Only Klee and Yanfei feel similar to me.
      But the truly interesting characters are the ones that shake up the meta. Allowing you to play new team comps or force you play team differently. Chevreuse is the most interesting pyro character released since... well... the release of the game in my opinion. 3.x had the release of Dendro. 4.x has Furina, Xianyun and Chevreuse. I hope 5.x also has characters that open up new team options instead of just being possible replacements in existing teams. Not every character needs to do so, but a few now and then keep the game fresh.

      That's not true. The only archon with excellent off field elemental application is Nahida.
      Furina's rate of application is medium and its intermittent, which can be problematic. Raiden's off field application is poor (she's just lucky hyperbloom doesn't care because it creates a new entity which lets it bypass the icd issue). Zhongli's pillars stay in one spot and can be broken. Venti doesn't have full uptime.

    Imo Yoimiya does have a niche. Since her damage is respectable and her playstyle is considered rather intuitive, lots of people do not mind trading the higher damage of powerful but harder to maneuver dpses for some comfort. It might be my mobile player bias as well, but I've found her especially convenient there

    I think the "Pyro DPS Problem" is a problem that's going to hit every niche, eventually. We have very few roles left: We don't have hydro or Anemo shielders, for example, but we shielders of every other type (if you count Beido's shield.) Eventually it will just be differences between Shielder characters, for example Layla and Diona. On the other hand, I'm encouraged by the new type of play styles brought in by Xianyun and Chevrous. Xianyun in particular is just fun, leaping into the air and doing plunge damage. If Genshin can keep that up, it will be interesting at least.

    Charged shot archers in this game feel like they are the most skill-dependent units, because your DPS heavily depends on your aiming. But at the same time, they are the most "playable" units, in terms of actually "playing" the battle as you like. You are free to pick any target, and you are less restricted with your movements (because they don't use stamina for power-attack). And the auto targeting doesn't mess with your intentions all that much. They have their downsides, as every type of character has, but for me they are the most satisfying to play.

    Lyney without a shielder is both easier and more complex than you think - If you can get one of Lyney's hats close enough to an enemy, the hat will taunt then and the enemy won't even aim at Lyney, which means that you don't get hit and are less likely to be interrupted - but some enemies (mostly bosses) are immune to taunt, some enemies have attacks that can hit you while they are aiming at the hat, some enemies will switch target to you mid-attack if the hat that taunted them stops existing, and some attacks can't target constructs and will cause the user to attack Lyney directly even while they are currently taunted by a hat (most such attacks cause some kind of marker to appear on their target, like Ruin Guard missiles).

Moreover there is nothing particularly innovative about her kit, (someone has called her a reinvented Albedo) ...

    I know arlechino isn't out yet, but for me she seems like a huge disappointment. Not because she will be weak, but because she will be same old, same old.
    I love the idea of a high risk high reward DPS, but Hu Tao is already that character... With the same weapon AND the same element.
    I think it would be so much cooler, and so much more on-character if she was a off-field dps or a support.
    Maybe she could keep the idea of bond of life but apply it for the whole party, and while it was active, no one could be healed except by arlechino. While the bond was above 30%, whenever the on field character attacks, she would do a follow-up pyro attack (like Raiden's) and consume some of the bond. When she used the burst, it would heal the whole party for some amount.
    How cool would be the idea of arlechino holding the entire party hostage to her bond of life?

    The Lyney - Bennett - Chiori - Zhongli you liked was actually Lyney's second most favorite team last Abyss. The reason is pretty clear in that Xiangling has to actually vape to out damage two doll Chiori. Chiori with Zhongli also adds Geo resonance with the damage bonus for Lyney.

  • @Senorgato029
    @Senorgato029 Месяц назад +2

    I think the main reason for there being no Bennett or xianling alternative is that hoyo with some more recent exceptions really doesn’t like to make characters that are out right better than others at least in genshin, how do you make a unit that is only sometimes or usually better better than either of those two who are the most versatile pyro options right now?
    I think for Bennett it needs to be a xingu vs yelan type deal where the newer gives even more damage but no healing(similar to yelans damage buff but non of xingu defensive utility), as for xianling, maybe a skill based off fielder to not have energy issues or a pyro aplicater that applies a lot of pyro but does it in many hits making them worse for vaping there own hits

    I don't mind them making pyro the element with a lot of on field DPS. I'm just incredibly angry they haven't made any proper character the can apply pyro off field well, so we finally have an alternative to Xiangling. They can absolutely make the pyro archon (and sovereign if we get that) an off field/support character, if they apply pyro well from off field, that will make them incredibly good. That's just how bad they've been at balancing the roles within pyro. I never though of Chevreuse as a DPS, is that just me or did I misheard..? Anyway, just my opinion, but I think she's the best pyro character we've had since Hu Tao. Not for her damage, but for what she brings to the element itself.

    Because marechausse was not as consistent on him is why I use the lava set on Lyney its like having his passive doubled which is way more efective and more quickswap friendly to use .
    I also think it might be fun to use Lyney as a quick swap pyro support and use the arrow shots for a bit of off field dmg too.

    In case you already have lyney and want to use it with father as his pyro battery sub quickswap dps.

    As you said the pyro squad does the same thing,but they all do it differently so if a player for example is not a fan of hutaos ca cancel playstyle they can do diluc plunge or yanfei/klee etc.
    its good to have options(assume the player has the characters/can pull them).
    Yoimiya really is....niche,she isnt bad but very restricted to single target/2 targets per wave at most,if there are 3 or more enemys per wave her dmg just cant keep up.but if the conditions are right she can really pull her weight.given that she is the only real "ranged" pyro dps she does have the benefit of having the option to put space between herself and the enemy,unlike tao or diluc who need to be in cqc range.
    As far as i been told Arlecchino will play similar to yoimiya but has some really good range for a melee unit,i for one look forward in using her in my yelan/xingqiu/xianyun plunge team without the need to spam ca ala hutao or in my chev team with beidou/fischl or yae.

    I know you priotise comfort and enjoyment but a tip I'd give is that you don't have to max out his stacks its really better to just use his bust and skill immediately after using your supports abilities this is because they get all the buffs you current have and act as huge nukes but with constantly charge attacking by the time you use your burst and skill you lose your buffs which is a big damage loss. This is move is also better gameplay wise as you're doing less charged attacks which means less stress with teams without zhongli. You only really need to do about 2 charge attacks per rotation.

    Since Furina and Xianyun however .. HuTao is just ridiculously op. During Xianyun dps she even stomped my R1 Neuvilette, with a Deathmatch.
    Yoi still absolutely fine for bosses or waves with few enemies, but if there's 3+ enemy waves, resistances, shields, or aggressive enemies she drops off hard.
    Tried her in current Abyss side 1 and it was painful. Doable, but only if side 2 carried pretty hard.
    But! Yoimiya is very nice for floor 9, 10, sometimes 11 as very few dps can kill enemies spread over the entire arena that quickly, so at least a QoL pick to get the fluff chambers out of the way.

And don't forget Benny/Chevreuse heals give you a stack, so in practice it's only 2 shots to max out the crit rate buff. C1 also helps with area coverage. For pyro as a whole, save us from OPPA, Murata

    Yeah I use Yanfei and Hu Tao and so didn't see the point of pulling Arleccino or Lyney. I see it as a good thing since I can stack wishes for other characters
