I am always looking forward to some Khaenri'ah lore. They pretty much got genocided by the gods because the country allegedly rejected the gods and created war machines instead. The land was destroyed and its citizens are now the order of the abyss, who wish to corrupt/destroy the gods I think.

You ask Zhongli about it and he just says "I made a contract to never speak of it, sorry." I imagine Venti is either going to dodge the question as well or he goes "Nah, I am the personification of freedom and peaced out when the gods got angry."
I also have a weakness for people in a magical fantasy world that reject the magical and compensate with machinery.
Up until now all the gods were benevolent. I'm not sure though if the electro archon came to be before or after Kaenriya's was shoah'd.

What I meant was, is she a fairy? An angel?
She is speculated to be from Celestia, that place you see at the start of the game where your sibling gets taken by that lady or is at least related to the archons. Her name is derived from a demon in the Lesser Key of Solomon like the true names of the other archons are (Barbatos, Morax, etc.). She's probably some kind of god, but lost her memories and power over some incident.

I'm more of the opinion she was the princess of the fallen kingdom (due to genre conventions) or the real ice archon that got replaced by the big bad (because that twist will be pretty hilarious)

Also from what I read the new island area is temporary and electro wasn't so much boosted as much as Elemental Mastery is now stronger.

What's a nice team for Klee ? Thinking of the following when the constellation revert patch hits. Armed with Lavawalker, she can go with C6 4NO Bennet, 20k++ hp Diona (shield + reverse melt) and Sucrose to CC, Swirl and Boost EM. Dodoco Tales looks to be a good fit for her.

Yea, the devs confirmed is temporary. We have over a month to explore the islands to let even new players finish up the stories to explore the islands for chests.

it's in the announcement itself (several times I think).

never thought I'd see consoles getting replaced as the usual scapegoat, but here we are... (what I mean is the game's too big for mobile).

Holy fucking shit. I just got Qiqi after 40 rolls, and then proceeded to roll Klee after 30 more rolls.

Holy Jesus, I got incredibly lucky. Got my pity on 90 and got Keqing. So I was like "Well, guess I'll try rolling for Klee some more." and got her after another 10 pulls!

Didn't think I could get this lucky. Best of luck to you whoever is pulling for the loli terrorist as well.

So, did they remove the Magical Crystals, or am I just retarded? Was cycling through my map pins for Ore, not a single one had MC’s, and I haven’t mined those in days. Everything else was there - was using expeditions while BP was down, so everything should be off its respawn timer...

The way crystal spawn works is kinda weird. If you check with the blacksmiths (both mond and liyue) though, they will mark on your map the spawns for the day

That’s odd, they always spawned the same places every other day, same with the other ores. Unless they decided for some reason to rotate spawn locations for them, which would be retarded...

Can’t really put that past them, can I...

The new EM buffs are sick but on the other hand now Venti's best build (by a mile) is stacking Elemental Mastery. Which is cool, because now Windblume's Ode is one of his best weapons even compared to the Harp.
But also sucks, because talent levels and ATK barely matter for EM builds (Swirl damage is only based off level and your EM). So level 9'ing his burst and getting him a couple of sick artifacts feels a little more meaningless.
BUT ALSO isn't that big of a deal because for his EM build you can use shitty artifacts since you no longer need to take into account ATK or Crit as long as its VVD. And you can still use the classic ATK/Crit build in places where crit swirl isnt as good like abyss floor 11 and single target situations like bosses
Really good vid that explains it in depth if you're interested: https://youtu.be/75gBLFsdPKw

A noob question, which I can't find the answer for, is any "increase attack precent" artifact effect (like in Noblesse Oblige) is good for Hu Tao? Also shouldn't tenacity of the millelith be really good for Diona?

In order - I find that the Artifact Sets where the first effect is just an Attack % Increase are fairly universal, so unless your someone like Noelle where your key stat is Defence they’re usually fine to put on anyone. Though considering Hu Tao’s gimmick is getting her HP low to do more damage, Tenacity might he a better set to think about for at least a 2-Piece

As for Diona, her healing scales off of her Max HP, so at least 2-Piecing Tenacity would be a decent idea. Your call what the other Artifact slots are (I’d say Maiden Beloved, or the Cryo Damage one I don’t remember the name of...)

I meant more as a party wide effect (a character like Diona does her burst and Hu Tao either gets a fraction of an increase since it's applied before the attack buff, or it's a 20% attack bonus if it is applied at the end).

Also how is Diona's healing output in general?

From quickly looking at a Wikia, Diona’s healing off her Ult - and I’m rounding this btw - is (5-12%Max HP) + (513 - 1542), the exact numbers depending on Skill Levels. Depending on RNG on Artifact drops, you could probably get Diona’s Max HP near or above 20k, which’d give well over 2-3k healing every 2 seconds while in her Ult’s mist

What do you guys think of this new summer event?

My thoughts: I think it's pretty unique. The boating minigame is pretty cool and the shop items are very good as well. It'll be a fun time waster this summer.

NO's 4pc bonus is additive like other sources of ATK% are. Considering Hu Tao's low base attack, it's relatively less effective on her than most other characters, but it's still deemed favorable to have one NO holder for most comps because muh deeps > surviability.

I like updates that give me more map to explore, and this is no exception. The boating gets kinda stale because of how the map is mostly open ocean, but the implication seems to be that more islands emerge as the event goes on.

I think the boats a nice addition, and if they ever permanently add an Island Based Region, I’d actually use it for a while instead of Teleporting everywhere. Aside from that, Shops fairly decent, but I’ll have to see what else they add for minigames.

Also Klee is too goddamn precious as a character, and needs to be used more in cutscenes.
