Why was there no wood drops?
edit: ah, it might be from before unlocking the teapot
Soooo decided to do exactly one 10-pull on the weapon banner only because I remembered how hard I tried to get Eula's 5* weapon and failed miserably, but figured it put me close to pity. Got the dang sword.
Also went ahead and got a nice set of artifacts on her, but now the real grind of the boss mats/sakura comes in. Didn't even expect to pull for her and now she's going to be unstoppable lol.

This is the rare instance where suggestions/requests would make it worse :D
Imagine getting fucking Rainslashers or Bells instead of 4* characters. So it would be a complete disaster for 4* farming, and because you want to combine banners, you would have to double the pities to 160-180 wishes per character unless you expect Mihoyo to give away twice as many 5* items, basically free 5* weapons.
Exact same thing happened to me. LolYESSSSSS
got him from the wish that i got from the sakura tree
goodbye Ayaka, hello again Kaeya.
C2 now.
Got second Kaeya Const with those 2 wishes.
Oh yeah, what the heck?! Where's that feedback form...
e: my teapot's unlocked, so it can't be that.
So I need to visit another travelers teapot realm and purchase an item from the traveling salesman, but I don't have any friends haha.
What's the easiest way to get a friend so i can visit their realm?

This was leaked last night by an unreliable uncle first who added that itll be a triple banner patch with Ganyu and then Kokomi. I wonder if they're doing this to avoid having a Japanese character banner during China day.
Previous OT had a threadmark with UIDs. You can add people listed there.
bennet and mona's buff + sucrose debuff + crit rate food.
Coop unlocks at AR16 I believe. You can't do the story quests together, but you can explore the open world, fight bosses, do Laylines and Domains. Me and my cousin have a ton of fun just farming in the open world and doing domains. Farming especially I hate doing alone so if he's not on I don't even bother, especially mining.
The only boss you can't fight together is Stormterror, the first weekly boss in the game.
Think of it as a single-player game with some co-op challenges.
I figured as much.
But hey, whatever makes them happy! At least they're supporting future development, haha.
Yeah, it's great. It's the one I spent around 3 hours on last night. Great stuff.
Oh, it's that long? Even better! I won't stress about it too much.
Well that's one way to do it, haha.
Yeah, I might go and unlock everything later today (and just skip all of the exploration and sidequest stuff associated on those islands until I get around to finishing the first.
I knew she'd have a way to switch her weapon. Her appearance in the trailer wouldn't make sense otherwise.
She sounds fun. I need her.
Ugh. Can you imagine if they do Baal, Kokomi and Yae in the same patch, with the latter being the Anniversary character? I would die.
They're going through these Inazuma characters so fast, without allowing people to budget their pulls. Kazuha --> Ayaka --> Yoimiya --> Baal --> Kokomi. It's just too much, and reeks of them trying to get as much money from people as possible (probably to drain them of everything just before the Anniversary hits). I've been saving my primogems for a long while for the Inazuma characters but even with that, the way they're scheduling everything is going to make me skip some and that hurts me. And now Baal is supposedly coming first, giving us even less time to save?
I guess it's 50/50 for Yoimiya, and then saving the rest for Baal. If she was coming later in the patch I probably would have been able to full pity both Yoimiya and Baal, but if she comes first that's a lot less likely. It sucks, since I love Yoimiya's character. I don't want to wait six+ months for her re-run. I guess it's 50/50 Yoimiya, grab Baal, and then start saving for Yae.
It begs the question though, what are they going to do for the Anniversary? All of these hyped characters will have been released by then, unless they hold back Yae for that.

Finished the first story quest. I really am enjoying Yoimiya actually..... but I cant afford to pull for her. Also Kujou Sara looks real cool too. The mask.... hope we see her with it on Oh and I forgot about the Shrine Maiden Yae I think the Inazuma characters are real cool.
Ah sorry, missed that. The thread was moving so fast haha.
From what I've heard it's going to be Baal first, the Kokomi and Sara second, so yeah, they'll be in the same patch if true.
I mentioned it before, but Baal being the anniversary never really lined up for me. An Archon of any kind is going to be a big money maker, as is an anniversary. Merging those two almost guaranteed revenue periods just didn't seem like a smart business move. I know FGO likes to do things like that, but FGO's banners are kind of random and whenever dw feel like releasing them. Mihoyo have a strict schedule, so every three week period is a chance for revenue, which means the anniversary will serve as something additional. Tying your banner, that is going to occur with or without the anniversary, to that, just didn't line up for me.
They may still do that ofc. This is me purely thinking from a business strategy pov.
Join me brother. It is glorious. It perfectly lines up with her aesthetics as well.

I just hope they don't squeeze Yae into the same patch. >_<
Your Anniversary theory is true, it's still weird to me though. All of the other gacha games I play release some special character for their Anniversary, so if they release Baal and Kokomi before it, I have to wonder what they have planned. Maybe an "All-Star" banner with the best of past releases? Someone on Reddit mentioned that the Anniversary happens on/near China Day, so maybe they'll have a Liyue character banner there to celebrate? Ganyu re-run maybe?
I'll save enough for Baal and try my 50/50 pity for Yoimiya, but I'm really concerned as to when they're planning on releasing Yae.They seem to be going through these banners extremely quick, so if they release her in 2.2 after Baal draining everything from me, I won't be ready. Seeing Baal release this early on, and not being a support character like previous Archon, only furthers my belief that something is up with Yae. Someone on Reddit also noticed that she doesn't share the same name typing that Venti and Zhongli does, so it's even more suspicious.
So much mystery!
It's so funny that I've been complaining about how slow these banners are with 3 week rotations, and now it's like "fuck, wait, my primos, Mihoyo!" haha. I do prefer this though. I like not knowing, and having to be selective with my resources. I wish I hadn't pushed my luck and broken my soft pity though. Damn you Diluc!
The China Day thing is interesting. I could definitely see some sort of all star banner around that. Like a triple threat of Xiao, Ganyu, and Hu Tao, with it rotating who is the featured rate up each day. Those are the three most wanted characters atm I feel (at least, they're the ones I see posts about the most) so it would rake in the cash. Especially cause of those who want all of them.
Ah, so much to look forward to for once. It's been a while since I've been in love with this game, but these last two patches and the idea of constant new characters has pulled me back. Apparently Mihoyo have moved their 10 year plan to a 4 year (well 5 if you include this first year) plan, so they've most likely realised that they needed to speed things up in order to retain their playerbase.
That bugs been around for a bit. I had the traveller die in a cutscene during the story in the last patch and the NPCs were just talking to the air.
I'm still on the fence with Baal and what we know of her kit. Archon or not, I definitely need to see her in the story to know how I feel about the character.
Lowkey glad that we're in waifu impact territory right now with this sped up schedule. My wallet is chilling.

It's common, especially when it is storming. Had a quest where a lightning blast knocked me off a cliff during a cutscene.
You'd think they'd make you invulnerable during cutscenes/dialogue with NPCs but still hasn't happened. Makes for funny moments though.
I said this earlier, but if Baal does end up being more a DPS than support, it leads further credence to her not being the "true" Archon. Yae is datamined to be a catalyst, so maybe she'll be the electro support we all expected.
I still want Baal though, for that VA (Sawashiro Miyuki) and character design.

I think this is how it's *supposed* to be. It's how the first 5-6 months were, and I feel like the long content draught post-dragonspine, with constant reruns, was not in the master plan.
Honestly there's a lot of buggy feeling things about how things work in this. Some of the co-op minigame event stuff in particular has felt very slapped together.
Still annoyed how I suddenly lost the prop hunt event a couple times for no clear reason in the Dragonspine map, only for it to click that they forgot to turn off the sheer cold effect and it had killed me. IIRC the game really didn't know how to handle it and didn't even show me my results those times because it tried to show me that I died + respawn, so I had no idea if I had wasted those runs or not.

The funny thing is that the most visually appealing characters in the game for me have been Zhongli and a bunch of Liyue 4-stars. No one announced in months have been as aesthetically appealing to me as Xinyan, Ningguang, and Beidou. Eula came close because her character design is great but her outfit is just so stupid that it holds her back - I'm holding out hope that she gets more outfit options in the future.
the new Axe Mitachurls fuck me up with the timing to do the Beidou counter with that "dance" move of them....
Meanwhile all the other enemies feel like great fun like the new samurais, those are always a nice break of pace with the fireworks or their charged attacks and the fact that some of them actually block your attacks.
also did the new boss, the Mechanical Array.... shit is HARD and it has waaaaay too much HP wtf!?

welp, if that's true than there's no point in me saving lol. don't care about any of them. Xiao and hu tao because I don't like "lose health to attack" characters and ganyu because I don't like archers, even if I did Aloy is coming, I find that Ganyu has the personality of stale bread
Yuuup, he's been a great QOL improvement for exploration in Inazuma.
I've done a few sidequest in Inazuma and so far it seems like they've actually improved a lot on actually using characters people know and not just a bunch of randoms doing busywork. I've already seen some pretty good callbacks to previous quest and characters.
After doing Yoimiya's quest and testing her with Xingqui and Ganyu, I can see her being a decent pyro DPS for a Xingqui melt comp, though she attacks to fast to make full use of him.
I see her main usage being in Ganyu melt comps though due to her burst, especially on single bosses.
Didn't get a chance to test her with Fischl though, so no overload testing.

With most main DPS, you should prioritize their Auto attacks first since that's what you're going to be using the most (the only exception I've seen is Childe for obvious reasons). Diluc priority level is Auto > Skill > Burst.
