Good news if true, we need some breathing room in between the new character banners or Inazuma will become too freaking expensive.

Still, Baal being 2022 is ugh... Baal and Ayaka release date is a running joke at this point lol

The good thing is we'll likely know if this leak is accurate when we find out who the four star characters are.

So is this rumor saying that Ayaka will get a rate up character banner for 1.7 than move to the permanent banner?

Getting a free dendro hero makes sense once they introduce those mechanics into the game.

Already looking forward to running errands for nobodies during the Moonchase festival :messenger_grinning_sweat:

Nooooo, if true.

Never believe D*scord.

That said, I hope the 4* confirmations are right, that's most of the characters I like based on design so far.

Ayaka "mains" running out of reasons to save for her yet?

Yes, you get guaranteed drop after certain amount of pulls.
Well kinda. There's also some other factors in play. Technically, hard pity is 90 pulls to guarantee a 5* character. "Soft pity" kicks in around 73-74 and gives you a huge boost to % chance to get a 5* though, so you're really unlucky if you ever go all the way to 90. Then, on the limited character banner (like the current Eula banner), you can ONLY get 5* characters at your pity. At the first 90 pulls it's only guaranteed to be a 5* though, so you have a 50/50 shot of getting the featured character or another of the 5* standard banner characters. If you lose the 50/50, then the next 5* you pull (at pity or not) will be the featured banner character. This pity carries across banners of the same type, so if you are like 40 rolls deep into the Eula banner, when the Klee banner comes, it picks up at 41 towards your pity. It also carries across the 50/50, so if you pulled on Eula banner and got Qiqi, then waited until Klee banner, the next time you get a 5* it will guarantee Klee.

Weapon banner is a whole different level of fuckery though as there is no guaranteed on any specific 5* weapon because they put multiple featured weapons. Don't ever pull that banner unless you sell your bitcoin and are living in a castle in Belize.

Dunno about this.
Kaz looks like a good substitute for Venti. And Venti is an absolute game changer - and xirz's also not gonna return any time soon. He doesn't really need a carry at this point, and he'll easily pull one - Razor is kinda common for example, he's awesome and he's on Kaz's banner.

Raz, Bennet and Rosaria. Best possible banner.
Is this banner a real thing, or speculation? Seems way to good to be true.

Might wait to pull on the Klee banner until the end of it just in case!

I'm just imagining a hell where I get spooked by the furry boi. Qiqi is bad enough.
Oh no. No way I will play as him. That would be disastrous ahahah. Why he's a boi ffs, why not a sexy feline or something like that. From my experience female characters doesn't attract THAT crowd as much. That furry "Sonic-lite" trash is disgusting. Just look what some people write in their statuses...

Semi-unrelated, but I love the butthurt "people" after Yoimiya was revealed on Twitter, "Japanese people aren't blonde! You're stereotyping Japanese people with the sarashi (the wrap underwear) and bow! Her accent is offensive to Japanese people!" All posts made by white SJWs from America, of course.

But yea, this game is about to attract a whole different demographic, and they've been proven to SPEND for their fetishes. I had a friend that did art commissions, and she said the depths of a furry's degeneracy and wallet are near endless.

I hate it.

Quick, give her a burger, a can of soda and a six shooter! 'Murica, f yeah!

Only to absolutely dumbest of them, who can't switch languages and play with GASP Japanese voices lmao Just like 90% of anime fans out there.

Yea I almost wish that MHY wasn't so obvious with their regional inspirations, to avoid shit like this. It's a fantasy world that doesn't really exist, it shouldn't be limited by real sucky-ass Earth.

She moved to a Scandinavian country and I lost touch with her. I suppose she still exists and is still drawing nasty furshit.

Unfortunately it doesn't really matter to those guys. They will always find something to complain about or be oppressed by something. Reminds me this gem:


P.S. sorry for your and your friend's loss. Being stuck in Scandinavia drawing furries is something most people wouldn't wish on their worst enemy ahahah

What time does maintenance start anyways? I wish they'd do a countdown instead of UTC stuff. I am terrible at adjusting time to different time zones.

Nice. Do you know if the 1.6 stuff starts after maint or not until daily reset?

Also, here's Sayu's constellations. She's giving me an Anemo Bennett vibe, honestly.

Sayu's constellations (translation)​

Constellation 1
The Art of Dual Use
Woo Hoo Ryu - Shadow Raccoon Dazzle's Undefeated Raccoon's actions will ignore the HP limit and can simultaneously attack nearby enemies and restore HP to the character.

- Tap: Increases the damage dealt by Wind Wheel Dancing Kick by 3.3%.
- Hold: When in the Wind Wheel state,every 0.5 seconds,the damage dealt by Wind Wheel Dancing Kick is increased by 3.3%. The damage dealt can be increased by up to 66%.

Constellation 3
Leave it all to the doppelganger
Increase the level of Woo Hoo Flow - Shadow Raccoon Dazzle by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.

Constellation 4
A new way to be lazy
When Sayu triggers a Swirl reaction on the field, she will recover 1.2 Energy. This effect can only be triggered once every 2 seconds.

Constellation 5
Speed comes first
Increase the level of Woo Hoo Flow - Wind Hidden Rush by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.

Constellation 6
Snooze time

Yea looking at this banner from a new player perspective, this is a pretty great banner. If you get all 4 of those characters, that's actually a really solid team.
On the off chance that banner is real, I'm going to have to save some gems for that one. I want Rosaria, but I don't have her. I was close to pity, and didn't want the five star on that banner. My Bennett is C4, and my razor is C4. Everything there would be a welcome upgrade.

Note to new players, do NOT unlock C6 for Bennett. Most here already know this, but it will greatly lower your DPS with almost any attack that doesn't already do pyro damage.

I have a stove in the house. Is there such a thing as a camp stove to put outside? Would love to just go into the teapot, and right beside where you appear, there is means of cooking something up.

The one you can build can only be put inside. Unless this patch either fixes it or create a new buildable pot for outside.

No. Even the paid one from the premium battle pass is indoor only DESPITE being the same model as an outdoor stove we have in the open world. Makes. No. Sense.

P.S. why you guys put freaking gardening in the spoiler tags lmao
P.P.S. I have 2 boars and 1 bird in my teapot. Time to become a proper farmer.

While you think about meat, which is in no way a bad thing, I'm already planning my harem.

I-I mean, the place where I can gentemanly talk with my characters about scientific topics and drink tea.

Start with mathematics:

1 girl = 1 room = 1 bed.

5 girls = 5 rooms =1 bed.

After that you can discuss biology and do some practical research.

Used the 600 primos that we got from this update for a 10 pull on Klee banner and got Sucrose.

Now that we have this update, should I put Liyue story on hold and go through this event first? Does this event have have a minimum level or story pre-requisite?

If you can get into the event, do that now. It's limited time, whereas the rest can be done whenever. Sucrose is really good if you can get her a "Sacrificial Fragments" book. It's a random 4* gacha book so I'm sure you'll get one sooner or later.
? People can enter your world without permission? Some stranger came into mine.
What do you mean? In the archipelago, or just in the normal world?

Regarding 1.6, I'm actually having fun roaming around exploring and blowing up shit with my boat. Sucks that they're time gating progress by hiding most of the islands underwater until the next "phase", but what would a MHY game be without time gating. I can't wait to get the full collection of these conch shells.

One of them referenced
getting a keepsake from "outside of this world", indicating that it's likely where Alice is from. Part of me wonders if the whole conch story is going to be different parts of Alice's memories. Deep implications here that Teyvat is a self-contained world or virtual world or bubble universe or something like that. Can't wait to find out more. I'd also love it if we actually get to meet/see Alice at the end, but it looks like we just get her record player and a message from her.

Man I am a total nerd for lore dumps like that.

I was in the middle of the quest cutscene at Mondstadt and someone just joined my world. Was odd.

Side note, Boat mechanics and conch collection is fun. I like the tidbits of lore we're getting.

Pull up your main menu, go to notices, then go to the events tab and you can always see what level each event requires. The answer for the island event is AR 21. So hit that if you haven't yet, and get started right away. As Pejo said, the rest can wait.

I've got 8 Acquaint Fates (not sure where from), but I wanted to know if I can convert these to Intertwined fates so I can pull from the limited banner?
Also, if I can't convert these, is it better to wait till 10 fates total to pull vs doing them one by one, or say 8 of them at one time and then 2 later. Will I still that benefit of a 4 star every 10 wishes (regardless of if I pull in one go or individually)?

Depends if you're close to pity. If you around 70, maybe it's a good idea so save some pulls and go with 1 by 1. If you're faraway from pity... Well, pull with what you got and hope for the best hah
