Hey your speedruns have made me interested in pulling for Childe since I already have Kazuha. For Hu Tao speedruns, is Zhongli the best support for her shields? I never pulled for him but I like to play Hu Tao, are there any replacements for Zhongli or is he best in slot because of his defense shred+shield?
Zhongli is very replaceable, he is just a comfort option but almost never best for straight up damage. If you want the shield though he is the best However for hutao speedruns especially he is rarely used, mostly for casual runs
When you pause the game you get the energy particle while the abyss timer is still paused. This save some seconds for you and help to have a better energy management for your characters.
Nice, you could maybe go like Fischl over Zhongli since the enemies are so bad at attacking you on the second side? I feel like that could clear a bit faster.
@@hkanty Oh yeah, is res shread better the higher the res of the enemy is? Cuz I feel like replacing Zhongli is probably a damage increase most of the time even with his res shread.
apart from the dmg shred, zhongli can also run instructor set which gives hutao em, but most importantly, when the enemies are affected by hydro and electro at the same time, hutao's pyro would react with electro first causing overload but not vaporise
@@ChimmneyManbasically when you pause the game, stuff like elemental particles and I think switch cooldown still move or tick, for some reason. So you can use this to catch elemental particles quickly and save a few few seconds. Most people use the book menu thingy to abuse this tech so they called it book
@@ChimmneyMan it lets you absorb energy particle without wasting time. when you open the handbook, the energy particles keep moving while the time doesnt
