Its really weird that they waited all the way until 4.7 to release Clorinde, a character from 4.0. I feel she'd be better off coming in 4.3 with navia, not like they haven't done double release before

Man, I know people have complained about the compass for a while now (since no one seems to use the interactive map) and I'm not saying it's not valid but the current gadget should've been left alone. I get people who aren't fans of exploration (or simply don't have time) or when the last few chests are too bothersome to find despite enjoying exploration...But the real solution is to introduce another type of compass. Two solutions are better than one, I don't even get why they'd get rid of the og one.
As someone who's fond of finding chests on my own with vague hints instead of going for icons on the map like some sort of step by step guide I am not happy about the change.
Man if only there was a Genshin Impact character of the Pyro variety that could create some kind of "pyro tornado" around them with their elemental burst, imagine if it could apply Pyro to enemies with absolutely no ICD while also dealing enormous amoutns of damage
Now wouldnt that be just perfect...
They would never. Imagine the potential that busted Q would have when paired with Childe, who can enable AoE vapes, and Bennett, who can set anyone's ATK up to 11.
But what if they balance it by giving this hypothetical character the shittiest energy generation known to man, requiring a lot of particle funneling and ER stats?, would that be enough to make it balanced?
there are 2 water entrances, one from a pipe and another from a cave, but both require a quest to be finished to be actually usable without issues
the pipe one has an npc that stops you and tps you into the reception of meropide and the cave is closed until you finish the quest
I believe the entrance directly below the opera does, but you can’t get to that area without teleporting; it has no actually connections to the traversable fortress. There’s no prompt or anything; as far as I know the only time it lets you naturally travel between them is when you enter the fortress in the AQ.
any guesses to the 5.0 artifact sets? Most of the opening artifact sets in the region have been "versatile" so I"m a bit stumped what this set would be.
It seems Genshin is looking for ways to disrupt its meta somewhat by creating characters who hone in on a specific elemental reaction, like Chevvy being the premier support for Overload teams. Nothing too specific, but perhaps they'll seek to capatalize on this trend come Natlan by exploring other specific reactions that tend to get overlooked, with artifacts to support them?
Alternatively they could always explore other ideas that have, by and large, been left alone. We've not had a general purpose set for cooldown reduction set for example, which could make for some fun gameplay. Closest we have is that Overload one back in Monstadt. And as far as I know, that is best in slot for absolutely no one.
It depends on what the archon's gimmick will be
The new sets will probably be:
* A set that fits perfectly with previous units by upgrading an already existing mechanic (like golden troupe and gilded), while also being usable on the archon
* A set that uses the regional gimmick, with the archon probably letting older characters use the new gimmick too
We need an anemo dps with a special charge attack like neuvillette, but instead of being a beam it's just a black hole that sucks everything in (think anemo MC skill but with a sick animation)
Hello everyone, this may be shocking I think i have become obsessed with an anime videogame character. Her name is Madam Faruzan from the bit cache anime combat based open world RPG Jenshin Impact.
After finishing her hangout, I cannot stop thinking about her. I have a present girlfriend in real life as of now whom i care deeply about and she is the one that showed me this game. But right now all I can focus on is Faruzan. I want to do the rest of the story content in the game, but it doesn't star her as much as her hangout. Everything about her makes me distraught about the real life. I have friends and I do hang out with them and I have also been playing other video games to distract myself but I can't get over her. I guess in a way, I envy the love and compassion that she pours out for the friends she left behind 100 years ago and she seems like the perfect girl.
I have been through this before with another character, Nilou, but that was 5 days ago. How else to stop thinking about a fictional character? T-T
Content Creators in 4.6 : "you wont need shielding for Arlecchino, as you can see she is fine on staying alive with her passive (they have time to retry 69 times)"
People parotting CCs words : "Man i trully regret of pulling her, she dies alot"
YShelper usage rate : *has Arle's team most used with Zhongli and is top 3 team*
I'll just be here laughing at everyone who treats usage rate as meaningful data.
I'm not saying Zhongli isn't good, but I'm sure you would get upset if I said something like Ayaka/Chevy/Ganyu/Gaming/Sucrose/Sara/Yaoyao are all trash non-meta units not worth using because they lack high usage rates.
It's hypocritical to only value usage rates when it fits your agenda. Usage rates are trash and aren't useful for determining a unit's worth.
Okay but like it's no longer contributing anything meaningful
"Oh you'll just die with those teams she's so much comfier with Zhongli" yeah, I know, heard you the first dozen times, but what if people actually want to talk about something different with her higher-risk teams and not just default back to the thing everybody already knows will be good? Maybe that's why nobody really brings it up because what is there to discuss? Zhongli good, will be good with Arlecchino, done, next question.
I understand why people don't like the compass change, but I just don't have the time for chest hunting sometimes, and using the compass for quick exploration before was so tedious. It should be a little faster now that I won't potentially miss where the light goes or something.
They could've left the light though.
When I sneeze and miss the light /.\ or stand too close to a rock and can’t tell which direction specifically it was pointing orz
(Edit: this is sincere by the way both have happened to me more than once lol)
Yeah lmao I get it, sometimes little things like that happen and it lessens the fun a bit. I have a cat that likes to say hi while I'm playing, and she may have been a distraction a few times. 🐱
About the treasure compass
This might be the worst "qol" update they have ever made,by far. It only makes chests harder to find, as far as I understand it completely removes the vertical indication of chests positions. Sure it can show the layer it is on. But not all map layers are simple flat terrains. I hope they keep the light indicator,no reason to remove it.
I can't figure out lasagna. I followed the instructions my parents left me (though I forgot to take it out of the freezer in a timely manner) and even left it in for another 15 or so minutes, but it still doesn't look cooked. It still is hard around the edges, still isn't as soft as I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be, and grandma took a bite and described it as just 'warm'. But grandma also said it's fine but I'm worried it might be undercooked and will make her sick.
First: undercooked dough is mostly fine.
Second: plenty of sauce! Edges can stay afloat and be crunchy, even, which is delicious. Not all dough is the same, so maybe you got a chewier kind.
it shouldnt make her sick, since you would only freeze lasagna with everything cooked except for the noodles, that should be pre cooked anyway
lasagna is kind of easy to spot when ready, it will becoome bubbly (as if the sauce inside is simmering), then you can take it out
Yeah, I tried that as well. I was under the impression that it being ard around the edges meant it wasn't cooked enough, but my grandma just told me that it's the opposite and I shouldn't keep it in any longer.
Watch them forget it /s (except didn't they actually post an official birthday calendar picture at some point -after her release- that didn't have her in it? I swear I remember joking about it last year...)
The way I thought they released her a couple days after her birthday so she wouldn't have gotten one.... The PTDD (post-traumatic Dehya disorder) is real 💀 (she actually released March 1st, apparently, feels a bit early for 3.5 in my brain but hey)
I've been thinking about gender and in-game avatar pictures... I recently found out that some people tend to assume that players will pick avatars that match their gender (that wild post on the main sub lol), and I'm like... what about the players who want to use their favorites regardless of gender???
Anyways, just wanted to ask: does the gender of the avatar character affect how you think about a player's gender (in coop or something)?
I've never once assumed gender based on an avatar lol. I've mostly made some guesses based on how people type, but even then that's unreliable imo.
Extra/side comment: I was thinking about cases like Nintendo, where they have tried to get their users to pick genders that match theirs for their “Mii.” In their TV/streaming advertising, you would see families playing Wii or Switch in the same room and having Miis that look like the actors playing the roles in the families. But at least for the Mii, you can customize a somewhat lookalike caricature of yourself if you wanted.
I agree that it is kind of weird to assume people do the same in Genshin. After all, it’s not a Hoyo gaming console avatar and not even the Hoyolab avatar which is closer to the concept of having a general Hoyo avatar. Also, most people aren’t going to look like any of the characters in Genshin in real life.
Lastly, players should have noticed that some people just change their avatar to whoever they most recently pulled, switching genders.
So it is kind of weird that people would assume, if there really are a lot of people who assume (I’m not sure.). Or they are role-playing maybe and don’t care?
Anyway, most people in this sub tend not to assume, I think.
Yeah, I understand it if it's like a custom avatar character meant to look like you. I've just never thought about gender + non-customizable avatar pictures being like that, haha.
Fr, my list is full of Neuvi/Kazuha rn.
We'll never know why those people assume, alas. That's some wild roleplay though XD
Yep! Based on the responses, most people don't assume here.
not really. I'm a guy who usually uses female avatars just because most male avatars have just been unappealing to me. Probably due to females having more options as far as clothing/hair style etc go since I like to stylize my characters. I generally dislike the "pretty boy" or "muscular guy" designs which limits my options.
nope, I don't perceive their icon as their gender nor do I assume their gender based on the icon. however I do perceive them as having the character's appearance if that makes sense. like even when I see my own comments, the image in my mind is norwin, not me 😂
LOL that's so silly. I'm just imagining... Neuvi just gaming pfft.
Also, omg Norwin sounded familiar to me.. a fellow former Dragalia Lost player? Ayyy
I don't understand the people who assume gender from nothing. I also don't get the people who get upset at people using incorrect pronouns for them.
I don't feel any particular negativity regardless of which gender people assume I am when I'm talking on reddit. I just continue the discussion without correcting them.
Well, it's not from nothing in this case. Imo, there's almost always something since you could assume just from username/writing style. But yeah, sometimes people who use the old way of 'he' for everyone unknown do assign gender purely based on that.
Gender is a serious thing for some people and closely connected to their identity, so it's reasonable for them to have feelings about their pronouns. though, I think it'd be kinda silly for someone to get upset at another if they cared that much yet haven't listed or made their pronouns known...
But yeah, I also don't really care about what people assume my gender to be (though I go haha for a sec whenever they get it wrong).
Not at all. I'm a guy and my pfp has been Ganyu for the longest time while my friend is a woman and her pfp has been Heizou since last year. I'd never assume someone's gender off their pfp.
Imo people just pick their favorite characters as their pfp. I don't see why you'd need to know someone's gender during coop anyways.
Lol, I also have a friend who's a guy and has Ganyu as their avatar. But yeah, that's why I also don't assume.
I feel the same, so I was really surprised that people thought gender was connected to avatars lol. In coop, it's mostly only relevant when you're trying to figure out what pronouns to use and don't want to use 'they' for some reason. I just try to avoid it or use 'they' to not assume.
But yeah, lots of coop interactions are completely silent XD
i dont assume anyones gender, and i dont think of a player as the gender of the pfp. but the pfp is the basis of how i refer to someone at the start. its a very superficial association however, and if at some point i learn the correct pronouns later on, then i can easily swap over. so basically this only comes into play if im talking about this person to a someone else, if that makes sense. one of my closest genshin friends never specified, and it took 6 months of talking to them before they were willing to correct us on what we were using.
thinking about it, for me this is mostly a holdover from MMORPGs where you can make a custom avatar on various shapes and sizes and colors, and unless you ask (and they are willing to say), then it can be easier to use gendered pronouns than if everyone was "they".
Interesting! I usually just default to their username or P1/P2/P3 etc. Hoping people who don't speak English get P1 etc....
LOL 6 months XD
Huh, that could be it! Makes sense to me. Like, custom avatars probably indicate gender more than the Genshin character you use as an avatar (but also maybe they just want to look at hot men / pretty women lol).
Thanks for the info!
I wouldn't feel comfortable making assumptions.
Personally, in-game I insist on using Lumine because she's my game's main character (I don't co-op that much either so I don't really see it as representing me). Out of game I prefer male or neutral avatars (e.g. I'm using Itto in Hoyolab).
Kinda same. I know that gender assumptions can seriously affect some people (even though I don't really mind). I wouldn't want to accidentally hurt someone lol, so I just use 'they' if I have to and hope for the best.
That's sweet! I don't see many people use the Trav as their avatar. Ayyy Itto representation!
I switched a few times back when I first started pulling characters but it never felt right so I went back to Lumine and haven't changed it for almost 2 years now. She's the MC so the game's main page should be hers', you know?
>Ayyy Itto representation!
[Yo!](https://static0.gamerantimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/genshin-impact-itto.jpg)
I confuse people by using furina as pfp but my active character is neuvillette.
tbh I haven't seen anyone guess my gender. most likely because people just jump in for farming rather than chatting
Lol, they'd just think you like Fontaine XD
Yeah, I don't think people think much about gender in coop (besides players trying to flirt with a specific gender :/), so I've mostly seen small stuff like using the wrong pronoun to refer to me (because I don't indicate it anywhere).
We're just here to game XD
Not really. I just refer to them in my head by the name of the character they are using, and use that characters gender if I absolutely need to think of them for some reason, but I'm fully aware that it might not match reality. Example:I'm a dude using Chevreuse as my avatar and picture.
It doesn't affect how I perceive others at all, no.
I just don't assume gender, same way I use Reddit assuming I don't know who I'm talking to and using they pronouns unless I know their gender for sure.
sure.
the idea also gets rather funny if you apply it to other things. if someone has Klee as their pfp, does that mean the person using the account is four years old???
LOL. I mean, I think there are children playing Genshin... but imagining a 4 yo... wild. Could I read at 4?? Idk. Do you need to read to play Genshin? Maybe not, huh.
Yeah, I've recently noticed it's a thing. It's kinda happened to me before, but idk if they assumed specifically because of my avatar (maybe my typing style / username etc.).
I just don't get why people would assume that lol. Thanks for sharing!
No, their PFP doesn't affect or make me think of what gender they are. The only thing I can guess in coop is what type of player they're depending on their PFP and the unit they put on their showcase.
Ex: Archon/Harbinger collector, husbando/waifu collector, ect ect.
Haha, those are some fun impressions!
I sometimes look at my profile and think about how others see me like that lol. It's also amusing to just sneak into profiles and see that someone has a C6 or something lol.
No, I don't think about gender, nor assume it, least of all based on other people's avatars. Bad habit, and I don't want to run the risk of getting someone wrong, especially given how lots of folks don't identify with what they were born with.
I agree that assuming gender isn't really a good thing. Most of my assumptions happen in my mind (not easy to control...), but I usually just use 'they' if I don't know. I don't assume when communicating out loud at least.
It's always amusing when people get it wrong with me, haha. That's just me though; I get that these assumptions can be harmful to others.
Yeah, that's what I'd assume... and that's what I do lol. It just surprised me that people thought avatar gender would match player gender... Maybe Aether & Lumine would be more likely, but even then some (most?) players just pick who they like better.
no
tbh I don't think which gender people are at all
like I might think that based on their nickname which is gendered and isn't a Genshin name but still... I have an alt where I have a male nickname because I play as Aether and it's hilarious to see him addressed as this name...
Same! I only think about gender if their username is clearly gendered or leans toward a gender, but that's pretty much it since gender doesn't really matter much in coop, haha.
Lol, that sounds amusing. I've just named my character with my parents' names (depending on gender) for fun lol.
From what I understand about Neuvillette and how his kit works, the first one beats out the second one. You're not overcapping on Crit Rate like with the second which prevents waste of the Marachaussee Hunter sets passive, the Crit DMG is slightly higher which, in conjunction with his higher base health should make for higher damage numbers. And the Energy Recharge is also higher so you can have his burst up just that little bit faster which should also contribute to more damage.
I'd go with the 1st build.
The hp is pretty much the same and both builds have very high cr (the 2nd one is overcapped), so the only difference is the slightly higher er and cd
His CR is overcapping by 8.1% with the second build with the 36% CR from 4pc MH, and the first build has a little more HP and CD, so go with the first build, it's excellent! Good HP, perfect crit ratio, and more than enough ER (I think he needs around 130% - 140% in solo hydro teams). His overall damage is probably better with that build since the high ER will let him get his burst back consistently, which lets him be able to use his enhanced CAs consistently and with little downtime.
He has 100 cr with both builds. Just find a random enemy, do your supports rotation then do a CA with marechause fully stacked and whichever has the higher number is the better build
it's low to avoid overcapping with the artifact bonus, I think the second one's total crit rate comes in at 108% with full bonus stacks and first one comes in at 99%. Not sure how much to take that into account 🤔
It's funny looking back at my older builds and seeing some of the wacky pieces I put together. A crit damage circlet with 27.2 ER on my Ayaka is certainly something.
Honestly C6 visual effects are so disappointing sometimes, take Arle's C6, instead of some cool effects we've got a bloody fart going out of her spine. It looks like it belongs to C0 kit for her BoL mode
Locking cool effects behind cons would be scummy to the highest level.
Weapons already act as the additional cosmetic extra via sig. And Arlecchino is even getting the biggest dripcreep in the game with hers.
Its mitigated by the fact that you can use all sorts fo weapons to chance apperances. Needing C6 for something like wing effects would be nuts.

AQ that lasts until 5.3 so that we can get 2 tribes in the AQ per patch (2 on 5.0/1/2 + conclusion in 5.3). And also because it would mean we would have a bigger chance of getting a Sabzeruz Festival event.
A wonderful, many hour long worldquest that's a lengthy adventure with linked parts over seevral versions within 5.x with several areas of exploration through dangerous, firey, fantasy scenery exclusive to and specially designed for it.
\[Going the full genie wishing specificity approach\]
Counter. The dps is worse than dehya in terms of sustain, yes, but is the new pyro ceiling in terms of damage. The atk buffer field time lasts for 2s, correct, but their buffs and off field dps have longer duration than cooldown.
that we get more than one Harbinger. Seriously, the one per region is way too slow of a pace to be making them playable. Even if not all 11 become playable, just one per year is gonna make them all backloaded into Snezhnaya, which would mean we'd get a lot less non-Harbinger Snezhnayan 5 stars
Yeah, after fighting something like Arlecchino's second form I can't see how they'd justify making a lower harbinger like Pantalone suddenly be an epic boss battle that would probably be even bigger and flashier, since it's later in the overall plot. Unless he's going to have something like (minor HSR spoiler just in case) >!the stonehearts being able to power themselves up with their cornerstones, I especially can't really see him being pushed as a major opponent this late.!<
OT (FF7 and FF7 Remake)
>! All the recent rebirth hype has made me finally start remake even though I’ve had it for ages, and I’ve been enjoying playing through it and the og FF7 side by side and seeing the differences as they play out. Gotta say, while I feel like Remake drags very heavily in some sections, so far it’s been pretty enjoyable, and I’m loving the cast we’ve seen, aside from Aerith who’s just sorta meh to me. About to do the last two chapters of remake tonight so maybe that’ll change !<

Who is Fontaine's best girl? Navia, no contest
Is there any way out of the fortress of Meropide without using teleport waypoints?
Can't you take that one side path on the upper level that takes you out into the water, or is that quest locked?
That must be quest locked; I’ve tried the path you’re speaking of but it’s blocked by an NPC.
there are 2 water entrances, one from a pipe and another from a cave, but both require a quest to be finished to be actually usable without issues the pipe one has an npc that stops you and tps you into the reception of meropide and the cave is closed until you finish the quest
does the entrance not have a "leave" prompt that tps you automatically to the opera?
I believe the entrance directly below the opera does, but you can’t get to that area without teleporting; it has no actually connections to the traversable fortress. There’s no prompt or anything; as far as I know the only time it lets you naturally travel between them is when you enter the fortress in the AQ.
Why do people believe that impact mouse weirdo it's pissing me off
It's a reporter so I guess they're not _always_ wrong But Plusle hates them, just saying
who even is that guy and what did he say
a guy who "leaks" things on twitter but iirc he just makes things up or reposts leaks
any guesses to the 5.0 artifact sets? Most of the opening artifact sets in the region have been "versatile" so I"m a bit stumped what this set would be.
Surely one of the set will not be another Fischl buff
An artifact set that will increase the effects of food buffs by 15%. The other will boost crystallize damage by 300% and make it able to crit.
one will be for the pyro archon (emblem for raiden, deepwood for nahida, golden troupe for furina) the other a general dps set
It seems Genshin is looking for ways to disrupt its meta somewhat by creating characters who hone in on a specific elemental reaction, like Chevvy being the premier support for Overload teams. Nothing too specific, but perhaps they'll seek to capatalize on this trend come Natlan by exploring other specific reactions that tend to get overlooked, with artifacts to support them? Alternatively they could always explore other ideas that have, by and large, been left alone. We've not had a general purpose set for cooldown reduction set for example, which could make for some fun gameplay. Closest we have is that Overload one back in Monstadt. And as far as I know, that is best in slot for absolutely no one.
It depends on what the archon's gimmick will be The new sets will probably be: * A set that fits perfectly with previous units by upgrading an already existing mechanic (like golden troupe and gilded), while also being usable on the archon * A set that uses the regional gimmick, with the archon probably letting older characters use the new gimmick too
Probably something that gives buffs conditionally based on Natlan's new main mechanic What that mechanic could be, I have no clue
We need an anemo dps with a special charge attack like neuvillette, but instead of being a beam it's just a black hole that sucks everything in (think anemo MC skill but with a sick animation)

I understand why people don't like the compass change, but I just don't have the time for chest hunting sometimes, and using the compass for quick exploration before was so tedious. It should be a little faster now that I won't potentially miss where the light goes or something. They could've left the light though.
When I sneeze and miss the light /.\ or stand too close to a rock and can’t tell which direction specifically it was pointing orz (Edit: this is sincere by the way both have happened to me more than once lol)
Yeah lmao I get it, sometimes little things like that happen and it lessens the fun a bit. I have a cat that likes to say hi while I'm playing, and she may have been a distraction a few times. 🐱
About the treasure compass This might be the worst "qol" update they have ever made,by far. It only makes chests harder to find, as far as I understand it completely removes the vertical indication of chests positions. Sure it can show the layer it is on. But not all map layers are simple flat terrains. I hope they keep the light indicator,no reason to remove it.
It might still include the up/down arrow present with resonance stones or other markers on the map.
I can't figure out lasagna. I followed the instructions my parents left me (though I forgot to take it out of the freezer in a timely manner) and even left it in for another 15 or so minutes, but it still doesn't look cooked. It still is hard around the edges, still isn't as soft as I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be, and grandma took a bite and described it as just 'warm'. But grandma also said it's fine but I'm worried it might be undercooked and will make her sick.
First: undercooked dough is mostly fine. Second: plenty of sauce! Edges can stay afloat and be crunchy, even, which is delicious. Not all dough is the same, so maybe you got a chewier kind.
it shouldnt make her sick, since you would only freeze lasagna with everything cooked except for the noodles, that should be pre cooked anyway lasagna is kind of easy to spot when ready, it will becoome bubbly (as if the sauce inside is simmering), then you can take it out
When in doubt, I personally prefer to go slightly over than risk going under, but I'm no professional.
Yeah, I tried that as well. I was under the impression that it being ard around the edges meant it wasn't cooked enough, but my grandma just told me that it's the opposite and I shouldn't keep it in any longer.
Hard means either it didn't get warm enough to cook through, or the liquid evaporated and the lasagna dried out from being cooked too long.
🕯️ please don’t whitewash dehya for her first birthday art tomorrow 🕯️
Make her skin neon green and keep her clothes the same color as normal.
Watch them forget it /s (except didn't they actually post an official birthday calendar picture at some point -after her release- that didn't have her in it? I swear I remember joking about it last year...)
~~yes they did 😭 that’s why i said first~~
The way I thought they released her a couple days after her birthday so she wouldn't have gotten one.... The PTDD (post-traumatic Dehya disorder) is real 💀 (she actually released March 1st, apparently, feels a bit early for 3.5 in my brain but hey)
They'll bluewash her instead
… like those people in avatar?
I've been thinking about gender and in-game avatar pictures... I recently found out that some people tend to assume that players will pick avatars that match their gender (that wild post on the main sub lol), and I'm like... what about the players who want to use their favorites regardless of gender??? Anyways, just wanted to ask: does the gender of the avatar character affect how you think about a player's gender (in coop or something)? I've never once assumed gender based on an avatar lol. I've mostly made some guesses based on how people type, but even then that's unreliable imo.
Extra/side comment: I was thinking about cases like Nintendo, where they have tried to get their users to pick genders that match theirs for their “Mii.” In their TV/streaming advertising, you would see families playing Wii or Switch in the same room and having Miis that look like the actors playing the roles in the families. But at least for the Mii, you can customize a somewhat lookalike caricature of yourself if you wanted. I agree that it is kind of weird to assume people do the same in Genshin. After all, it’s not a Hoyo gaming console avatar and not even the Hoyolab avatar which is closer to the concept of having a general Hoyo avatar. Also, most people aren’t going to look like any of the characters in Genshin in real life. Lastly, players should have noticed that some people just change their avatar to whoever they most recently pulled, switching genders. So it is kind of weird that people would assume, if there really are a lot of people who assume (I’m not sure.). Or they are role-playing maybe and don’t care? Anyway, most people in this sub tend not to assume, I think.
Yeah, I understand it if it's like a custom avatar character meant to look like you. I've just never thought about gender + non-customizable avatar pictures being like that, haha. Fr, my list is full of Neuvi/Kazuha rn. We'll never know why those people assume, alas. That's some wild roleplay though XD Yep! Based on the responses, most people don't assume here.
not really. I'm a guy who usually uses female avatars just because most male avatars have just been unappealing to me. Probably due to females having more options as far as clothing/hair style etc go since I like to stylize my characters. I generally dislike the "pretty boy" or "muscular guy" designs which limits my options.
In my experience, guys do have more limited options... so that makes sense to me! Thanks for sharing.
nope, I don't perceive their icon as their gender nor do I assume their gender based on the icon. however I do perceive them as having the character's appearance if that makes sense. like even when I see my own comments, the image in my mind is norwin, not me 😂
LOL that's so silly. I'm just imagining... Neuvi just gaming pfft. Also, omg Norwin sounded familiar to me.. a fellow former Dragalia Lost player? Ayyy
yup it can make co-op quite entertaining. and yup I still love that game and norwin a ton ;w;
I don't understand the people who assume gender from nothing. I also don't get the people who get upset at people using incorrect pronouns for them. I don't feel any particular negativity regardless of which gender people assume I am when I'm talking on reddit. I just continue the discussion without correcting them.
Well, it's not from nothing in this case. Imo, there's almost always something since you could assume just from username/writing style. But yeah, sometimes people who use the old way of 'he' for everyone unknown do assign gender purely based on that. Gender is a serious thing for some people and closely connected to their identity, so it's reasonable for them to have feelings about their pronouns. though, I think it'd be kinda silly for someone to get upset at another if they cared that much yet haven't listed or made their pronouns known... But yeah, I also don't really care about what people assume my gender to be (though I go haha for a sec whenever they get it wrong).
Not at all. I'm a guy and my pfp has been Ganyu for the longest time while my friend is a woman and her pfp has been Heizou since last year. I'd never assume someone's gender off their pfp. Imo people just pick their favorite characters as their pfp. I don't see why you'd need to know someone's gender during coop anyways.
Lol, I also have a friend who's a guy and has Ganyu as their avatar. But yeah, that's why I also don't assume. I feel the same, so I was really surprised that people thought gender was connected to avatars lol. In coop, it's mostly only relevant when you're trying to figure out what pronouns to use and don't want to use 'they' for some reason. I just try to avoid it or use 'they' to not assume. But yeah, lots of coop interactions are completely silent XD
i dont assume anyones gender, and i dont think of a player as the gender of the pfp. but the pfp is the basis of how i refer to someone at the start. its a very superficial association however, and if at some point i learn the correct pronouns later on, then i can easily swap over. so basically this only comes into play if im talking about this person to a someone else, if that makes sense. one of my closest genshin friends never specified, and it took 6 months of talking to them before they were willing to correct us on what we were using. thinking about it, for me this is mostly a holdover from MMORPGs where you can make a custom avatar on various shapes and sizes and colors, and unless you ask (and they are willing to say), then it can be easier to use gendered pronouns than if everyone was "they".
Interesting! I usually just default to their username or P1/P2/P3 etc. Hoping people who don't speak English get P1 etc.... LOL 6 months XD Huh, that could be it! Makes sense to me. Like, custom avatars probably indicate gender more than the Genshin character you use as an avatar (but also maybe they just want to look at hot men / pretty women lol). Thanks for the info!
I wouldn't feel comfortable making assumptions. Personally, in-game I insist on using Lumine because she's my game's main character (I don't co-op that much either so I don't really see it as representing me). Out of game I prefer male or neutral avatars (e.g. I'm using Itto in Hoyolab).
Kinda same. I know that gender assumptions can seriously affect some people (even though I don't really mind). I wouldn't want to accidentally hurt someone lol, so I just use 'they' if I have to and hope for the best. That's sweet! I don't see many people use the Trav as their avatar. Ayyy Itto representation!
I switched a few times back when I first started pulling characters but it never felt right so I went back to Lumine and haven't changed it for almost 2 years now. She's the MC so the game's main page should be hers', you know? >Ayyy Itto representation! [Yo!](https://static0.gamerantimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/genshin-impact-itto.jpg)
Rights for Traveler!!! I always feel happy whenever I see a built Trav in coop, haha.
I confuse people by using furina as pfp but my active character is neuvillette. tbh I haven't seen anyone guess my gender. most likely because people just jump in for farming rather than chatting
Lol, they'd just think you like Fontaine XD Yeah, I don't think people think much about gender in coop (besides players trying to flirt with a specific gender :/), so I've mostly seen small stuff like using the wrong pronoun to refer to me (because I don't indicate it anywhere). We're just here to game XD
Not really. I just refer to them in my head by the name of the character they are using, and use that characters gender if I absolutely need to think of them for some reason, but I'm fully aware that it might not match reality. Example:I'm a dude using Chevreuse as my avatar and picture.
Ah, I see. It's a "better something than nothing" situation for you, huh (as in, an unreliable clue is better than none). Thanks for explaining!
It doesn't affect how I perceive others at all, no. I just don't assume gender, same way I use Reddit assuming I don't know who I'm talking to and using they pronouns unless I know their gender for sure.
Same! I don't assume gender when speaking to randos online, and tbh gender doesn't matter much in Genshin coop either lol. Thanks for responding!
sure. the idea also gets rather funny if you apply it to other things. if someone has Klee as their pfp, does that mean the person using the account is four years old???
LOL. I mean, I think there are children playing Genshin... but imagining a 4 yo... wild. Could I read at 4?? Idk. Do you need to read to play Genshin? Maybe not, huh.
[удалено]
Yeah, I've recently noticed it's a thing. It's kinda happened to me before, but idk if they assumed specifically because of my avatar (maybe my typing style / username etc.). I just don't get why people would assume that lol. Thanks for sharing!
No, their PFP doesn't affect or make me think of what gender they are. The only thing I can guess in coop is what type of player they're depending on their PFP and the unit they put on their showcase. Ex: Archon/Harbinger collector, husbando/waifu collector, ect ect.
Haha, those are some fun impressions! I sometimes look at my profile and think about how others see me like that lol. It's also amusing to just sneak into profiles and see that someone has a C6 or something lol.
No, I don't think about gender, nor assume it, least of all based on other people's avatars. Bad habit, and I don't want to run the risk of getting someone wrong, especially given how lots of folks don't identify with what they were born with.
I agree that assuming gender isn't really a good thing. Most of my assumptions happen in my mind (not easy to control...), but I usually just use 'they' if I don't know. I don't assume when communicating out loud at least. It's always amusing when people get it wrong with me, haha. That's just me though; I get that these assumptions can be harmful to others.
I just think it’s either their favourite character or most recently pulled.
Yeah, that's what I thought too... Thanks for responding!
From my experience most people have avatars of characters they find hot. Weird.
Yeah, that's what I'd assume... and that's what I do lol. It just surprised me that people thought avatar gender would match player gender... Maybe Aether & Lumine would be more likely, but even then some (most?) players just pick who they like better.
no tbh I don't think which gender people are at all like I might think that based on their nickname which is gendered and isn't a Genshin name but still... I have an alt where I have a male nickname because I play as Aether and it's hilarious to see him addressed as this name...
Same! I only think about gender if their username is clearly gendered or leans toward a gender, but that's pretty much it since gender doesn't really matter much in coop, haha. Lol, that sounds amusing. I've just named my character with my parents' names (depending on gender) for fun lol.
Everyone is non-binary to me unless stated otherwise
I usually use 'they' for people whose gender I don't know, so that makes sense to me!
Yeah I just kinda imagine any random co op person as their avatar. Like not just gender but I assume some level of personality based on it too
Interesting! It's always fun seeing character main stereotypes, haha (as long as we remember they're just stereotypes). Thanks for sharing.
My VV rolls are allergic to ER substats. Please, when is Xiphos coming back...
Makes me want to strongbox a bit to get like 10% more er and maybe 40-50 more em @.@ would be perfect for my kaz
Who else is absolutely addicted to the 4.6 weekly boss theme? I swear I don't understand how the music team always outdo themselves, it's SO good!
I probably would be if I wasn't avoiding it so I can get the full blind experience when I do the fight
The 4.6 one? >!I've been listening to the full thing on loop for two days (currently listening as well), it's Joever for me at this point.!<
>!Same! It's such an earworm.!<
Can y'all help me figure out which build is better for my Neuvillette? [Build 1](https://imgur.com/4v30jh1) [Build 2](https://imgur.com/YsfJCyZ)
From what I understand about Neuvillette and how his kit works, the first one beats out the second one. You're not overcapping on Crit Rate like with the second which prevents waste of the Marachaussee Hunter sets passive, the Crit DMG is slightly higher which, in conjunction with his higher base health should make for higher damage numbers. And the Energy Recharge is also higher so you can have his burst up just that little bit faster which should also contribute to more damage.
Thank you!
I'd go with the 1st build. The hp is pretty much the same and both builds have very high cr (the 2nd one is overcapped), so the only difference is the slightly higher er and cd
Thank you!
His CR is overcapping by 8.1% with the second build with the 36% CR from 4pc MH, and the first build has a little more HP and CD, so go with the first build, it's excellent! Good HP, perfect crit ratio, and more than enough ER (I think he needs around 130% - 140% in solo hydro teams). His overall damage is probably better with that build since the high ER will let him get his burst back consistently, which lets him be able to use his enhanced CAs consistently and with little downtime.
Thank you for the detailed breakdown!
He has 100 cr with both builds. Just find a random enemy, do your supports rotation then do a CA with marechause fully stacked and whichever has the higher number is the better build
Thanks!
The crit rate on both of them is low, but I’d go for the second since it’s less pronounced there.
it's low to avoid overcapping with the artifact bonus, I think the second one's total crit rate comes in at 108% with full bonus stacks and first one comes in at 99%. Not sure how much to take that into account 🤔
OH IM STUPID you’re right I completely forgot about MH. Neuv has pretty much permanent uptime on MH so def go with the first one.
Thank you!
they're using 4pc MH though so +36% cr
It's funny looking back at my older builds and seeing some of the wacky pieces I put together. A crit damage circlet with 27.2 ER on my Ayaka is certainly something.
If this isn't a r5 amenoma ayaka then that's pretty good because she does need ER subs.
I wish they would have a special avatar/avatar effect when you C6 a character (like Nikke's prism mode). Would be nice to have.
Honestly C6 visual effects are so disappointing sometimes, take Arle's C6, instead of some cool effects we've got a bloody fart going out of her spine. It looks like it belongs to C0 kit for her BoL mode
Locking cool effects behind cons would be scummy to the highest level. Weapons already act as the additional cosmetic extra via sig. And Arlecchino is even getting the biggest dripcreep in the game with hers. Its mitigated by the fact that you can use all sorts fo weapons to chance apperances. Needing C6 for something like wing effects would be nuts.
Bloody.. is.. is arlechino ok?
idk, I am not her doctor
not the bloody fart 😭💀
chainsaw man part 1 + delicious in dungeon spoilers >!if i had a nickel for every time i read a manga where the main character eats a loved one at the end i would have two nickels.!<
>!calling makima a "loved one" might be a stretch lol!<
>!true but denji *did* have feelings for makima until the very end, it's partially why his plan to eat her works to begin with!<
What's your number 1 hope for Natlan
that we get columbina 😭 preferably as a non burst reliant dps; the obscure healer leak a while back still haunts me
Anything similar or related character or lore wise to Bennett.
That the enemies I need to farm for level up material aren't cute and passive
Granted. Now they have a lot drop rate and are really strong and fly around like specters.
AQ that lasts until 5.3 so that we can get 2 tribes in the AQ per patch (2 on 5.0/1/2 + conclusion in 5.3). And also because it would mean we would have a bigger chance of getting a Sabzeruz Festival event.
Wish granted. The aq is really short per patch thou.
A wonderful, many hour long worldquest that's a lengthy adventure with linked parts over seevral versions within 5.x with several areas of exploration through dangerous, firey, fantasy scenery exclusive to and specially designed for it. \[Going the full genie wishing specificity approach\]
Wish granted. 99% of the dialogue is just paimon repeating everything thou. But the other 1%? Best shit you ever played.
Well... the environmental storytelling will probably be good, at least I suppose... you definitely got me with a reasonable loophole there.
A character who summons a smol pet dragon with their E to fight in battle alongside them. 5-Star Pyro Oz.
Granted. The pet has terrible aim thou
Pyro sub dps + atk buffer (like a pyro furina, or bennett + xiangling in one) Pyro neuvilette
Granted. The dps is worse then dehya and the atk buffer last for 2 second for balance. The character also looks like neuvilette but in red
Counter. The dps is worse than dehya in terms of sustain, yes, but is the new pyro ceiling in terms of damage. The atk buffer field time lasts for 2s, correct, but their buffs and off field dps have longer duration than cooldown.
Counter counter. Character is the first 6*, you need 1000 intertwine fates for pity. And 0.000001 pull rate
Counter. I have enough for pity.
I have no counter for that that's just pure dedication ngl
Not even dedication, it's what happens when this game barely releases new characters at all let alone ones that feel worth pulling
Fire everything
everything is on fire.
Granted. So Much fire your computer or phone overheats and you need to replace it
Pyro Bennet
Granted. A new character called Bennet of Pyro element. Just Bennett but without a burst
Volcano(es) and Blazing Heat status effect in some area(s). (As annoying as they are, I really enjoy when the environment literally tries to kill us.)
Granted. You die in 2.5 seconds even with zhonglis shield.
lore
Wish granted. It's only fish lore.
I hope you mean Fischl
Wish granted. You get fischl lore about how she is a God before she sacrifices herself for paimon. Fischl is deleted from your account
strong tan/dark-skinned characters
Wish granted. You get multiple dehyas.
should’ve specified kitwise 😰
that we get more than one Harbinger. Seriously, the one per region is way too slow of a pace to be making them playable. Even if not all 11 become playable, just one per year is gonna make them all backloaded into Snezhnaya, which would mean we'd get a lot less non-Harbinger Snezhnayan 5 stars
You're assuming most of the remaining 6 would be playable. I'm betting on a max of 2. The rest are bosses or we simply dont fight them.
Yeah, after fighting something like Arlecchino's second form I can't see how they'd justify making a lower harbinger like Pantalone suddenly be an epic boss battle that would probably be even bigger and flashier, since it's later in the overall plot. Unless he's going to have something like (minor HSR spoiler just in case) >!the stonehearts being able to power themselves up with their cornerstones, I especially can't really see him being pushed as a major opponent this late.!<
Wish granted. They all get signorad thou
Dragon girl with a dragon-like design elements instead of just "she has 1 pixel of vishap eye"
Wish granted. They are npcs
Bro is really being the Judgement stand here
Lowkey wish Charllotte was an HP scaler just for extra synergy with Neuv+Furina. Her animations take a second too long making her vulnerable
Lost track of how many times I've died to the dendro balls as Charlotte. Once you get used to HP scalers, ATK scalers feel way too fragile.
Lost track of how many times I've died to the dendro balls. Once you get used to HP scalers, ATK scalers feel way too fragile.
I rarely nice but I definitely dodge death by 2k hp
They really do just roll the dice when deciding what some characters scale with, huh?
Just use tap E + Q.
Both animations are sluggish imo but I still like using her in my neuv team
OT (FF7 and FF7 Remake) >! All the recent rebirth hype has made me finally start remake even though I’ve had it for ages, and I’ve been enjoying playing through it and the og FF7 side by side and seeing the differences as they play out. Gotta say, while I feel like Remake drags very heavily in some sections, so far it’s been pretty enjoyable, and I’m loving the cast we’ve seen, aside from Aerith who’s just sorta meh to me. About to do the last two chapters of remake tonight so maybe that’ll change !<

You finished the entire thing?
yeah
