[up] Guys I think I know why all the Hilichurls attack us on sight.

You are not alone.

Man no wonder the hilichurls sided with the Abyss Mages and the Fatui.

You know, using Barbara's Elemental Skill, then switch to Kaeya to use his Elemental Skill/Burst for constantly freezing enemies?

It's a fun setup.

But then I'd have to use Kaeya! This sort of cryo usage feels insufficient.

And yeah, Klee's mother. Mad scientist (alchemist), seems to have destroyed half of one ruin and responsible for blowing up the Stormterror area to make it look more ruinous. Jean has got to be a better influence, even if she can't curb the dynamite fishing. [lol]

Also, Jumpy Dumpty bounces on water and booms, so it can actually be used to go fishing.

Whether chests respawn has become a weirdly contentious thing, apparently, but what's definitely true is that brand-new ones pop up when your world level increases. After hitting level 5 yesterday, I ran into a couple that I couldn't possibly have missed (right next to a waypoint on a route I've taken numerous times, for example). But I also marked locations of several common chests a week or so ago to see if any reappear in those exact spots... nothing so far.

There's also a theory that they respawn when your world level increases, but, again, not seeing that in my game. Wouldn't make much sense either, since if you hadn't opened some chests in time, you wouldn't get to double-dip on those.

Ended up spending 50 bucks on a whim (never poured money into a gacha before, but here I am) and it was enough for 5 10-rolls and... I ended up getting Klee.

Fischl and Xingqiu are also new to the team, with the latter coming with 2 dupes almost immediately after.

[up][up] It's weird, because there are most definitely some scenarios where I have definitely opened the chest that I just came across before, therefore something must be triggering it.

[up] Enjoy the cuteness.

And the explosions.

...I wonder if 10 days will be enough to trigger the pity system, I've been one-rolling the gacha every time I get enough Primogem.

There's a history page on the wish tab. Go to character event wishes and tab back through the pages until you reach the start of the Klee banner. Multiply the number of pages (-1) by 6 and add the number of banner rolls on THAT page and you'll have how many you've made.

I don't know if it ignores the previous banner as I hadn't touched it, but pretty sure Klee started on the 20th.

I did... 170 rolls on the banner.

The pity timer does carry over between banners—or at least, that's what customer service told us, and since we switched from Venti to Klee, somebody surely would have noticed if that wasn't the case. It also remembers whether you got a featured character for the last 5-star.

The only catch is that the weapon and "Wanderlust" banners are separate, so rolling on those (with primogems) is still kinda pointless unless you really want weapons.

No I mean I don't know if the history page only counts the current banner or not.

The history page shows all of them. Mine are still there, and I haven't done a single wish since Venti left.

Apparently Genshin Impact's official server just became the largest global Discord server today.

I tried joining for funsies, and I was barred because the member count exceeded the cap (730,000).

So I confirmed that Xingqiu (AKA water Chinese boy) makes the giant fire flower his bitch, and Xiangling (AKA fire Chinese girl) I assume makes the giant ice flower her bitch.

The giant elemental LEG Os are just bitches in general and require no further thought.

Does anyone know a way to make the water butterfly stop making my team its bitch?

I've taken it out with Klee, but before that shooting the flying ones with Amber was fine.

I dunno, I don't find the elites particularly problematic.

I use Kaeya against the oceanid since he can stop the creatures in their tracks, even quell the AOE damage aura on the duck. The flying enemies remain a problem though. As does the self destructing frogs if you kill'em in the wrong place and the wrong tile has already been destroyed.

Fischl is my go-to for dealing with the Oceanid. She doesn't dominate the fight, but it goes from overwhelming to manageable with her. I imagine most Electro characters are good against the Oceanid since you can chain lightning all of its lackeys :)

The problem being I only have Lisa who, much as I love her and Tanaka Rie's sultry voice, has defenses roughly equivalent to that of a human-sized gelatin.

I haven't even raised any electro characters. I just rely on shields a lot. [lol]

[up][up][up]Beidou turns the Oceanid into tissue paper, especially once you get the timing of the various avatars down and can just perfect parry for 4-5x electro damage.

[up][up]I saw a rumor going round they'll give out a free Fischl for v1.1 like they did with Barbara for the current release, so maybe you'll be able to pick one up in a couple of weeks.

Xiangling also performs admirably well against the Oceanid. Both her Skill and Burst absolutely shred through the creatures there. The best part is that you can trigger both, then swap to your main DPS to really melt through the summons, especially against the crabs and ducks.
