help... [Genshin Impact Catalysts Only]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 окт 2024
- Genshin Impact, but we use Catalysts ONLY. AKA, Spells Only.
This time around we enlist the help of other players in co-op, to help us farm for handguards, ganoderma, the bathwaterdemon boss in Enkanomiya, and basically anything that will help us build Yae Miko. Then we swap over to grinding out the Hypostasis event for primogems to help us pull for Scaramouche once he is released.
This is inspired by my own Swords Only playthrough we currently have running on the channel. That account is at a point where we just need to farm domains to further build characters, so with plenty of catalyst-wielding characters on the horizon, it's time to begin this journey as well.

Average java viewer
I swear we're going to get a physical catalyst user before a cryo one.
You mean... a martial arts fighter? (Whos attacks arent infused with elements)
I'm betting on Mika being a catalyst physical support, just for the trolling
@@franklinfernandes5593 wasnt he confirmed as polearm? Or am i high
@@franklinfernandes5593 OH WAIT FOR THE TROLLING sorry i cant read 😀
@@franklinfernandes5593 He's cryo tho so they're probably actually going to do cryo catalyst
Honestly, Java's Christmas drip is looking pretty fine.
True

100%
Yes
Ayoo
Java: “I want to upgrade nahida”
also java: is looking at Yae Miko
oh no its happening again... first he calls ningguang yanfei now hes calling yae miko nahida?
In response to thinking about end goals, I think my favorite parts of the series have been when I asked myself "How is Java going to get out of this one" or "What is Java going to do next". It made the challenge feel more interesting to come back to, especially in the starting phases. Even when you were doing content you were doing before, you had to approach it in different ways due to lacking the right elements or having the right amount of range (I'm still in awe that you did the archery challenge on both accounts). That isn't to say the current videos aren't interesting but without a goal they feel kind of just like normal Genshin grinding which I think takes away the uniqueness of the challenge. The limitation of using catalysts (and swords in the other playthrough) aren't as bad because you can do everything (eventually).
Honestly I'm not sure how you'd tackle something like an end goal since a lot of it hinges on grinding or waiting. Maybe you could look through the achievement lists and try and complete ones that you think would be interesting or try to complete a specific number? Or maybe you could make your own haha, Java's achievements where you complete your own personal challenges! I'm not sure what would make a good end goal but I hope you can find something that you enjoy working towards. Best of luck Java!
One challenge I’d like to see Java in is popping slime balloons in the weapon accounts. It’s something that one cant do easily without bows.
Nahida’s passive /w the npc only works in Sumeru. Her collection passive /w her skill works everywhere
I don't know if you knew this, but when spamming Normal Attacks with Ninigguang if you hold down the W key you attack faster... It acts as a cancel for you attack animation and you can get more DPS for it. :)
No way, really? Does this work for mobile?
@@chromiiayt3044yes it does. just hold the normal attack button and directions pad at the same time
Only for Ningguang???
@@chromiiayt3044 Not sure...
@@viision127 I mean it may work for other catalysts, but I'm only aware of ninnguang
Now that you got a physical DMG goblet, build Heizou with Eye of Perception and make him the true physical catalyst he was meant to be
dumbest idea ever :) why people are forcing themselves to build physical the characters that will struggle at dealing damage like that? especially catalysts... pathetic. i guess u guys farmed in the first year so many physical artifacts that is hard to part ways with them right?
@@grosumihai3419 it's a meme build
@@grosumihai3419 it was clearly a joke 💀 go drink some water, relax, and then come back when you aren’t as aggressive LMAO
@@grosumihai3419 I wonder why this person Java decided to make a catalyst only account, this is such a dumb idea right? He could struggle so much less if he just let himself use other weapons right?
@@grosumihai3419 my guy, please shut up.
I feel like floor 12 spiral abyss is a good end goal for both accounts, as it proves you've 'completed' building two teams of characters. though I think even after you achieve that you can still go back occasionally to complete new archon quests and stuff, just cuz you figuring out ways to get around quest gimmicks for me is the highlight of these series.
i feel like end goals are a good idea, im very curious on what other projects you are planning on! or just doing videos on your main account could be fun too, like doing challenges with your viewers on stream perhaps?
100% agree. As for the end goals, its not like he is deleting the accounts, so after achieving a certain goal he can drop the series for some time and then pick it up whenever he feels like it, maybe in a year or so when there is actually stuff to do. Thats what I think at least
@@wojciechkleczek2119 after he drops the catalysts only account he'll pick it up again once they add a cryo catalyst
Regarding your death rate, there's a gadget called NRE and it usually can do pretty good job at keeping your HP up, particularly in co-op scenarios. That Kamera you have eqipped sure lets you snap fancy pictures of dissolving body of your character but in terms of preventing that dissolution it cannot do much.
And seriously, maybe you could start a new series called "quests only" where the main challenge is doing all the quests. Because that seems to be the real challenge for you in this game.
this is so passive aggressive and somehow i still love it
I can't tell if you love or hate Java
caotic, i love this comment
I personally love your weapon only series, but end goal sounds like a good idea. Maybe 36* an abyss rotation? Anyway, whatever you decide it's certain to be fun and enjoyable to watch.
I want to answer the why is this your favorite series question.
Its not all about what you actually do, i love all of your videos and i dont care what youre gonna do im still gonna watch it because youre so good and i love all of your work.
i love attaining inner peace the second java uploads
If getting a cryo catalyst is the goal, i believe HoyoVerse is the goalie
What I like, especially in the Catalyst series, is the struggle to beat things with limitations;
There are not so many Catalyst user, and none of then are that strong yet, so things are still interesting.
Needs a kokomi, kokomi is my ultra catalyst carry.
Easy to build, doesn't need crit, fine with thrilling tales or prototype amber, and clam shell set almost doubles her damage. Out heals most damage, skill heals without needing burst, burst heals all the team.
Kokomi is the comfort pick on level with Zhongli's shield
@@J.sh_CDN But a good build Barbara can do that too tbh
Leaks are a good things. Theory crafting character teams + help to know the gameplay of a character before the crappy gameplay showcase in livestream
I agree that there isn't much to do on these accounts. I still enjoy the farming videos and stream clips, but the real fun of the series is seeing you clear the storyline and overcome parts like the archery challenge (the ptsd), maybe thinking of fun ways to do stuff like puzzles that are hard to do with catalysts etc. Imo it'd be nice to just come back to these accounts once in a while, when something challenge worthy comes along?
The one thing you didn't do that I'd like to see on weapons only would be like an optimal team showcase to see what weapon only characters make really good teams together, I guess.
They probably meant that the mind reading only works in Sumeru. The item collecting isn't limited like that though
Thank you for uploading cause otherwise i would spend hours just mindlessly watching yt shorts xD
Btw. at 2:44 i'm pretty sure there was a official post form Mihoyo what Boss drops,normal enimies and other stuff you need for him
during the apple archipelago the map had like 70+ blue sea plant things and so i farmed those everyday for kazuha
I love your videos so much and the timing was perfect! I still dont know why you don't have more subs
My favourite part of the challenge was probably in the beginning where you had to find creative solutions to overcome challenges. I'd love to see something similar by attempting the story quest domains with only _____ weapon type as more content. Thinking more of it, doing the same story quests over and over seem kind of tedious, but I guess you can shift to only completing more mechanically difficult quests (at least when only using one weapon type) instead of tying to get so many accounts to end game. Just food for thought.
Co-op, Java’s favorite thing in Genshin 👍
Honestly I'd love to see anything you come out with next! I'm curious to see where the channel will go next, and I'm pretty sure people will prefer watching content you're happy creating!
Beating spiral abyss 12 sounds like a good end goal. It's hard but not impossible. I'm interested in what other challenges you'll come up with after swords and spells only.
Honestly, I think benching accounts after spending so much time on them is a bit sad. But I understand the monotony of grinding multiple accounts. Maybe once the accounts have met their goals (36star spiral abyss for example; then you can play them occasionally on stream to collect rewards, and only get a youtube episode out for the accounts that haven't met their goals (and occasionally when a character you can pull for is on banner)
I'll admit that I don't really know precisely how heavy of a schedule that would be, but I assume producing, editing and compiling the videos takes significantly more effort than playing on stream, which is why it makes sense to me to gradually fade out the more advanced accounts and keep them almost only as stream content.
Accounts such as the Nuzlocke have a defined goal already.
I can understand that it definitely gets boring or tedious after farming and farming on multiple accounts, but just every time I see the notification that Java posted, my face lights up.
As for the "end goal of an account" topic: why not complete (100%, all quests and whatnot) a certain region with just one weapon type? I can imagine completing inazuma with just one weapon type, considering all the puzzles, would be hard but also fun to see just what one can do to work around them
I’m so early yesssss, first time being so early, and it’s on one of my favorite genshin series!! Keep making those! I love them! Love your Christmas outfit btw
If they like Wanderer so much, public shaming is the LAST thing you do as a punishment...
No matter what the content is, I shall enjoy it. Your channel is among the favorites I hold, so do what you think is best!
although i don't want you to end this series, i understand what you mean. i'm looking forward to seeing the other projects!
so, maybe a good deadline is to beat all the bosses that are available at the time, and the spiral abbys; In my opinion, the best thing about the series is seeing you overcome the challenges of the game with limited characters,, if you weren't struggling,, idk, i think it wouldn't be THAT entertaining.
whatsoever, i'll enjoy the series for as long as it lasts, keep it up! c ya
btw, sorry for my english lol
Love Java’s Christmas outfit
I think a good end goal is 9 star floor twelve and then a fight all world bosses then the weekly bosses where you can only reuse 1 character in each region. (eg. If I use Xiao, Sucrose, Zhongli, and bennet to fight the Inazuma bosses, I can only choose 1 to carry over to the other three regions. Then if my next team in liyue is zhongli, raiden, nahida, ayato then I also only get to choose 1 after). This is probably more practical on swords only as you have more chareacters there.
Additional rules could be:
no resurrection foods,
no healing foods (buffs allowed),
no healing between even if you have a healer that can do so,*
no collecting energy from outside sources between fights,
Drowning counts as death for only the on-field character
*With this rule it will basically reset each region as you get a new team, but the one character you saved will still be damaged.
excited to watchhhh
also I think you getting miko helped me get my miko with no guaranteed
Definitely the Christmas we were looking forward to... Building Yae up.
Thank you for posting today!
He knows his audience since day one
Suffering, we love it
java's christmas outifit is so cute
i really understand you want an end goal to these weapon only series, and i will happily support any new series you start!! if anything it would eventually bring more variety in content, and i think that'd be great :)
Personally I think that if you do set an end goal for those accounts, it should be something like getting to AR 60 or beating all the archon quests that are currently available. To me that's the most basic way to beat genshin, the hard-core way would be to get 100% exploration everywhere and get all the achievements for each region (like opening 800 chests in all of liyue) along with getting the highest level reputation, all the oculi, and beating all the world/story quests. However, genshin is an unfinished game meaning you can set the end goal to whatever you want it to be :)
“i want to upgrade nah-hee-duh”
I think giving the series a end goal is pretty good I mean it may help you keep from getting bored or burn out of one series and just stopping it out of the blue.
My first time watching your stream and you did not disappoint. I cannot fathom how much time and effort you took to edit these videos, and my respect for you is even huger now. Keep on the great work, I can't wait to see your next videos!
I think putting an end goal is an AMAZING idea because watching the only account now is like I'm playing genshin on my own account.
Me personally I'm just here for you and your content but the accounts don't have much to offer now
watching the co-op bit, and i must say, java. you are a MENACE. but that’s what us viewers like abt you so i ain’t complainin’ :D
It's funny when I hear you saying "there's no hp DPS catalyst" bcz while I'm watching Neuvillette is out
Catalyst users are my fave, so I want you to continue this series, but it makes me sad that you are definitely burned out, so clearing abyss 12 sounds like a good goal to me ^^ I think the Tsaritsa is going to be our cryo catalyst, so that’s probably too long of a wait
I think that good end goal for catalysts only would be to unlock all content you can and see what remained locked due to the lack of cryo.
As much as it is enjoyable to watch your videos on this series, as someone who also has multiple accounts, I really understand the pain of going through the contents in game again and again... Like yes it's fun the first time but no, it gets more repetitive and boring to do or you could have a lot of procrastinations about it. I say maybe fighting all the bosses using a certain weapon type could be an end goal for the series(?)
nahida's mind reading only works in sumeru but collecting things from afar works anywhere
So, I'm new to this channel and I've been binging this series. I know this video is old at this point, but if you're still looking for end goal opinions, here's mine:
I do think Spiral Abyss floor 12 is a good goal. On the surface, it might look like an overly simple goal and that in the end it's just a bunch of grinding, but is that really the case?
Let's take a quick look at the current most popular, or in other words, most powerful floor 12 teams. National (and it's variations), Childe International, Raiden Hyper, Ayaka Freeze, Morgana, Kuki Hyperbloom, Mono Geo, Nilou Superbloom, Hu Tao double hydro... There are probably more, but they all have one particular thing in common, and that is that the most important characters in most of these teams are not catalyst users.
One of my favorite things about this series was how restricted you were at the start before you had gathered all the elements and characters. Every new character was a step forward. Now, this is no longer the case. You have access to all elements (with Sucrose as the pseudo cryo), and any content can be reliably cleared, albeit slowly. Now, the series is lacking that sense of progression that fueled it in the earlier stages. There are no "great walls" left. But if you look at the Abyss teams I listed earlier, you see that you don't have access to any of the supporting characters that makes the above teams work. There are no Bennet, XQ, Zhongli... Isn't this similar to how you were so restricted during the early game? Because you're lacking all these key characters, you have to find workarounds and build teams that, while sub optimal, will still still be able to power through. More importantly, you need two such teams, meaning you can't just rely on one particular busted reaction (nahida hyperbloom).
To make things a little easier on you, you can probably set the goal as simply clearing floor 12, not 9 starring it, but I think this would be a pretty good challenge to end the series on. Yes, there will be a lot of grinding to make any of your characters Abyss ready, but with a goal in mind it'll feel a lot less mindless. That's my thoughts on the matter anyway.
Java lookin mad drippy with the Christmas decor!
I love how Java is like "Today we are leveling up Nahida" in front of Yae Miko in the intro. It's hilarious 😂
For the one account experience, yes that’s exactly what it’s like. I can confirm from personal experience 😁
"Imaging dying/suffering"
Dies after
"Couldn't be me'
Seeing that Java uploaded new spells only episode made me the happiest person in the world
I’m definitely looking forward having some nice way to end the series. You’re one of my favorite genshin channels ever, but I’ve been finding myself less compelled to watch these spells and swords only as before. I hope you can move onto new projects that you enjoy! I’m not really sure what a nice fulfilling end goal would be though… I was thinking maybe instead of that you can also change which account you play on depending on what character is on the banner- if it is a sword or spell character you play on that for the weeks the banner is live, and otherwise you use your main. Maybe then you only do one at a time, and the accounts get more interesting as the game slowly scales in difficulty. And I hope we get to see more of the newer content because of it!
My fav series
These are really good series, but I can totally understand having an end-goal for this. I think Clearing Floor 12 Spiral Abyss is a pretty solid goal
Kyaa!! Your Christmas outfit is so cool!!
To be honest, I agree with the end goal of this and swords only accounts. Maxing abyss and speed running bosses seems reachable. ^^ Bc other than that, all you can do is events (which for you seems more like a chore, bc of repetitivness), improve characters and nothing more. So yeah in conclusion I would like setting end goals, bc I'm also excited to see other projects form you, he he! ^^
I do not know why I pulled for Miko because I saved for Raiden. It was too tempting... AND I HAD ALL THE LIGHT TALENT MATERIALS, LIKE 95% OF THE HANDGUARDS AND ALL OF THE BOSS DROPS AND ALL THE VAJRADA AMETHYSTS AND 80 PITY! I HAD LIKE, EVERYTHING AND I SPENT HUNDREDS OF HOURS ON THAT, and I spent it on Yae... I'm not worthy to be called a Raiden kinnie
' have u been looking at leaks? '
me, who has enough for wanderer lvl 90 and triple crown..
My reccommendation for an end goal would maybe be collect every catalyst/sword character and/or beat spiral abyss
end goal: get a cryo catalyst
it was a pleasure playing with you java! hopefully i can sneak my way into some more streams >:]
I think benching accounts at least temporarily would be good for the channel. As much fun as these weapon only accounts are, I agree that there isn't much to do on them anymore. I hope you do what you think is best and have fun starting new projects if you want to!
One thing I've noticed is having tons of accounts really expediates burnout. As someone with only one account, I find myself able to enjoy most of the content Genshin throws my way very consistently, never having to worry about the dread of redoing content countless times. This is why it is my opinion that it would be healthier for you to eventually find closings for each of your series pieces. I love to see them, but I don't know how I'll feel if I eventually see you hate doing them. Just make sure you're taking care of yourself, and have fun.
An end goal can be that you must hit like 500k dmg
Whatever comes next, either a continuation of the current series' or end goals and new series.... I'm still watching
Get the wanderer on the main account so you can reunite the siblings... 🤭
A kinda like you ending the videos with a 'monologue', I more personal conversation.
Thay always wrap videos perfectly 👌
I was kinda sad about not being able to get yae but seeing you suffer I’m kinda starting to feel okay with it
Some endgame goal ideas!
-the obvious one, 36 star the abyss
-until you reach ar 60
-until you reach a certain number of friendship level 10's (based off a challenge I'm planning to do, one of the endgoals is filling up my namecard section of my profile with just friendship level 10 namecards)
-until you own and maxed out every catalyst user (at the time)
-once you 100% every area
Not sure if this will help just some ideas:)
in order to make it a challenge, you could upgrade your characters, and when they are fully leveled, you could have to pick only one to use, and that would be the real "end game" challenge (like how it is a challenge at the beginning of an account)
I like how when Java was talking about eating paper I just randomly said I used to eat eraser's... which is infact true I thought they tasted like bubblegum 😌🥂
"you don't want those pesky dermatologists in your world, do you?"
Java whit the Christmas drip is the best.
And he just died in this video is like one million times…
Good luck on the Wanderer banner 🙏 Plus Ayato on Swords Only in the second half
Java: talking about how his team does no damage
Also Java: ignores the 11m of geo damage from ninggaung.
I think an end goal could be collect every element, then build each element and take them to the spiral abyss. That means for your two teams, you'll only have one element that repeats twice. You have to win against floor 12 (so make sure you build that last cryo character), but you don't need to get all the stars.
Watching the first part of that video, you'd think at least one person would have the sense to use Barbara, or, if they have her, Kokomi.
Christmas Drip my dude, also the thumbnail is gold
Nahida skill for mind reading only works in sumeru, while she can pick up majority of the drops in the game including sea ganaderma
i woudn't be questioning about the goal of the account, it's an infinite content machine
ok, 2 full days to watch the entire series? now I am in real time)
Ah yes chirstmas Java, I like this very much
Im also stuggling to ascend Yae Miko too... but I can't
GOT HERE IN THE FIRST MINUTE!
Love the reindeer btw
They released an infographic on hoyolab so we do know his talent stuff.
Yeah. An end goal is great.
For spells only... Clear 12 and get a cryo catalyst
1 element challenge soon probably impossible but would be fun to see how far 1 can get
There are only anemo and only electro viedeos as far as I know
I made it to the stream! It was really fun, altho much didn't happen.. it was still a good time! Thanks for the great video java! 💙
Maybe the end goal for this account can be that you defeat every boss currently available in Teyvat without dying and without help?
4:30
You can use Nahida's passive skill for collecting drops anywhere in teyvat,
But Nahida can only read the minds of people who have connections to the Akasha so she can only mindread in Sumeru
mika: im bout to end this mans whole career
@@Lily-is-bored 7 months ago there was leaks of him being the first cryo catalyst
I remeber Java fighting the Ekonomiya boss and using the Ningguang "strategy" (on stream)
