As always, you don't need to spend a dime to enjoy Genshin! But hopefully my spending can make for content for you! Thanks again to Paimon's Bargains for sponsoring two of the topups for this video! Check them out here if you want to save some money on your pulls: discord.gg/paimonsbargains (They are just a middleman service that allows you to buy top-ups where they are cheaper, they ain't giving you free primos, unless you win one of their giveaways they occasional run lol)
Well, for me I spent 90pulls +$450 to get 2+1, did not lose 50/50 to get her to C2, but lost on the weapon, the bad luck part is that I did not get any gold until it's almost at full pity.
I feel I had to share this story for my brother's Xilonen summons: He had about 8000 primos total and was at pity with a guarantee (he lost the 50/50 for Mualani, then wished for Chevreuse and stopped before pity). So he got his guaranteed Xilonen obviously. And then continued wishing. At about 20 pity he got an early five star. It was Dehya. He continued. Two more ten pulls later, he triggered Capturing Radiance. And you may say wait what, how did that trigger when he was on a guarantee? WELL It means he got a double five star 10-pull. And because of his guarantee it meant that as soon as Radiance showed I knew he got C1 and C2 Xilonen in that pull. Which is absurd. This lines up with the theory that Capturing Radiance triggers based on consecutive 50/50 losses. So what happened was my brother got a double early five star 10-pull wherein the second 5 star would have been a 50/50 loss, but because it would've been a third 50/50 loss in a row since version 5.0, radiance had a 75% chance (this is the current estimate since Hoyo hasnt given the exact numbers) to turn the 50/50 loss into Xilonen anyways (and then triggering the animation that my brother saw letting him know thats what happened). Regardless, what was actually lucky was him getting 3 freaking early five stars in 30 pulls. Meanwhile the only time I ever got two early five stars in one ten pull was two years ago, and it was Qiqi into Nahida, which turned into me spending money for C2 lol. So moral of the story is my brother stole your luck! Mine was downright average in comparison lmao
Had to spend 300 for c2... lost 3 50 50 in a row counting 2 from mualani banner and got capturing radiance on the next 5* after that so ye. At the 4th 5* its definitely radiance every time
Raiden c6 reduces burst cooldowns by 5s after Raiden attacks 5x Xilonen c2 reduces burst cooldowns by 6s after Xilonen attacks 2x... and gives 25 energy It's the Can I copy your homework? meme.
And I confirmed my thinking of her C2 that I talked about in this video. You can trigger that energy and CD reduction with every use of her skill (she has a 7s cooldown so with animation times for her NAs factored in its basically every 8-9s can give you 25 energy and 6s burst reduction lol)
@@Solunerrathat's basically 60% cooldown reduction + all the free energy. There's no way on earth that there won't be a super busted team coming out of that even if it's with a very unconventional composition. Like imagine a healer that only did that, it would already be busted, but now you add the res shred on top and the fact that you don't have to be swirling or doing anything special just E and attack twice.
@@fancyoat1588she really likes having High HP for her buff and she can be hard to play without really good ER, going full Emblem or 2p2p with ER/HP sands, HP goblet and HP/(Cri rate for fav if needed) is good enough And instructor can go on Bennett for better uptime at the cost of noblesse I guess you can maybe give her the net Natlan support set and try to get as many ER% and HP% stats so that she can at least buff with an artifact too, I know people are using that set on many characters like Chevy since Noblesse or Instructor are already used on the other teammates
@@Solunerra She's pretty good... with constellations. For the Abyss, Navia usually delivers my hardest hit, but Chiori gets the most kills. So together, they're a stellar combo. Chiori kills the trash mobs, while Navia assassinates the high hp ones. Worth noting, this is type of thing that is why theorycrafters aren't realitycrafters. Someone like Kachina might theoretically give a team higher DPS, but overkill is a win more, not a more wins.
Well, I lost the 50/50 to Dehia C2, though I had enough primos to get my guaranteed Xilonen afterwards. So I'm actually pretty happy with this outcome.
I have 260 wishes saved for Nahida and Zhongli. Really want Chiori, said I would only do 40 wishes for her and if I don't get her let it carry over for Nahida. I got her in 30 wishes.
4:22 that's interesting, because I really don't. It sounds too generic to me. It doesn't give any character in my opinion Like, i didn't feel like I just met a new character, it just felt like a remix of an existing voice
That c2 should be nice for any of the die hard/ whale raiden players who got her c6. Unless I'm wrong, raiden lowers the burst cd of other characters but not her own. So with c2 xilonen she too benefits from lower cd and thus faster rotations. But tbh the enemies should be dead by that point
I LIKE HER VOICE TOO! Some people talking shit about the VA and I’m just like SHES GREAT! Half our quests aren’t voiced right now lol people are so awful.
For once in my life I got crazy lucky and got her c2 within 80 pulls. I wasn't gonna go for it but I threw in a few hail mary 10 pulls and here I am. Excited to try all sorts of wierd electro comps.
I must be veeeery Lucky. Ive Just started playing genshin on kazuha banner. Im f2p and 100 wishes Got me kazuha, kachina, xinyan, raiden, kujou sara, thoma c1, chevreuse C2 like wtf. I got kazuha in first 10 pulls. On raiden banner i got 2x chevreuse in my first 10pulls... Raiden in 50. Like every 10 pulls i Got different character. I even thought this is normal and Just now i understand how Lucky i was.
You have no idea how lucky you were. I did 80 wishes for Xilonen and got Keqing. And then after 70 wishes, no Xilonen yet. I'm gonna get her, but i will be beyond broke when I'm done.
LOL you have no idea how correct you were. I was using the shit 3 star crit damage sword on furina and now she has chiori's sword and xilonen to double her skill damage.
Honestly never thought about using Dori with Furina at all. I use her full EM on TF replacing Razor in his EM team. It has actually been my favorite team to use the past year. it made me like Dori so much more and I kinda wanna try her with Furina now
I saved 120 pulls, got Dehya (my first C6 5-star character) and Xilonen in just 20 pulls 🥳. Now, I have Capturing Radiance for Mavuika, my luck turned around quickly after Kinich 😄.
I really, really hate to brag but this one time--JUST THIS ONCE--I have to. I've had cursed, bad luck from the very beginning of the game; I lost my first fourteen 50/50s in a row, I've been pushed to pity twice to get a single character SO MANY TIMES; getting my favorite Dehya to C0 was an extensive nightmare and like my daughter Klee's C1 it took me two years to get Dehya's weapon--I had to get her C1 as the free five star this year. Kazuha? Took me a year. Jean? Took me FOUR years. Hell, I didn't roll a Bennett after starting this game at the very beginning until almost a year and a half later. Xilonen? My queen, my savior, my Jaguar Jesus? I got her three times in 50 rolls, and her weapon in three more. Took me 80 summons to get C2R1 and I couldn't be happier. I don't even care that she's a great support; I just love Aztec culture, I love her aesthetic, I love her music, and to be honest the only reason I kept rolling was for Candace constellations so getting Xilonen so often was a fluke--in fact, it was like eight or nine flukes in a row, and I will 100% take it. This was probably my last time ever getting lucky in this game, but it's good to go out with a bang.
i got her c2 with around 170 wishes or so, i was on a guarantee so i got her once, then lost to jean, but got another xilonen RIGHT AFTER, then i spent the rest, got nothing, had a single pull with my starglitter, and triggered capuring radiance i love this game 😭
All patches from Kinich onwards are skips for me until Mavuika personally (and maybe *MAYBE* Capitano or Columbina). Saving got me at least C1 on every limited 5* and a sig weapon for Kinich. I plan to keep on being selective as this approach has given me more happiness than simply impulse pulling (although I did once give in, but it workes out)
u should make a video on chiori and creative ways to use her bcuz ive had her since first banner and I love her design and playstyle but she's been collecting dust
I got wild luck last banner with 5 stars- *wish I could say the same about Chevy cons* got c1 riden and c1 kinish, their weapons and an Amos bow in like 350 pulls if I'm not mistaken.... didn't even have riden, and wasn't planning on pulling for either of them... just wanted Chevy cons....
great video as always! looking forwards to more xilonen vids & chiori shenanigans :) out of curiosity, is there anyone who might be able to make use of xilonen's weapon? pulling so my chiori to finally get her sig but if i get xilonen's weapon in the process i'm not sure who to use it on.
I'm still on my way to capturing radiance -81 loss to dehya -80 got mualani -80 loss to qiqi -77 xilonen an early would be nice sometime please (my last was the first yoimiya rerun in 2.8!!)
I had a good 80 pulls saved, so I was hoping for some Candace cons, since I use her for onfield Furina. I only got one of her sadly, but at least I won my 50/50. But now I’m getting paranoid that I’m going to start loosing all my 50/50’s from here on (even though I’ve only won two in a row), especially since there are a good few characters I want. I’m not quite as hyped for Mavuika as most people are, but I do want Citlali and Capitano, if he’s playable (can’t believe Nathan actually interested me in cryo character), as well as Zhongli and Xianyun on their reruns. Part of me wishes I had lost my Kinich 50/50, just to feel less paranoid
Grats! Very lucky pulls all things considered. I lucked out and got a double Xilonen pull at around 50 pity on a guarantee. I don't recall if the Capturinig Radiance triggered or not since I was only sort of paying attention to the wish animation at that moment. At any rate, I'm stopping at c1 for now because the banner is so whack; gonna go for c2 on her rerun.
For the first time in my genshin account i got incredibly lucky, 60 pity before start, got a win at 82 pity, got my first ever double 5 star in the same 10 pull gettin me c1, since i got c1 in the same 10 pull i decided to continue for c2 and got another win at 62 pity....im happy very happy, cant ever complain now ig lol best of lucc to anyone who still hasnt pulled, may you be blessed
first natlan 5* i pulled for, first 50/50 in natlan, and i lost it. really off to a rocky start. sigh, at least it was c2 dehya, which was the best possible result. gonna have to farm like hell to guarantee both chasca and mavuika now
I'm saving for Chasca but still wanted the battlepass 50 pulls, I had saved 30 acquaint fates so I only spent 20 on the weapon banner to avoid an early 5 star (since I built some pity half heartedly pulling for Raiden). Good thing cuz I did get an early but it was skyward pride lol.
I need to go grind all the exploration I haven't done because I lost the 50/50 on Xilonen and I also want a copy of Chiroi for c1 if I can grind enough for it.
I too have a 5 50-50 streak except that I lost every single 5050 for 5 times continuously and thats all the 5 stars I ever wished for. I did get 2 earlies tho so thats there... its just me coping
… Xilonen is not a gyaru… not even a LITTLE… Xilonen is based on Brazilian subcultures. Gyaru looks completely different… not every blond woman with a tan that wears makeup is a gyaru… and even if there are the most superficial of similarities I definitely don’t think calling her one is warranted
Oh apologies! I mishead chiori at the beginning as gyaru 😅 my genuine bad. I’ll double check next time (this is what I get for listening on another tab)
is it just me or is the luck going around insane. my conspiracy theory is that mihoyo is pushing the new characters on to us hehe. Good luck on your pulls everyone(I already got xilonen at 20 pity hehehehe) 💜💜
Can never justify spending crazy amount on a single character of a game. There are 1001 things I'll spend money on, gacha games won't be it. This 21 days will be a very boring one for me. No one to go for this half and it seems like the contents for this patch are also going to be very, very little apart from the one major content in each half.
If the 50/50 losses for Kazuha was during the 5.0 Kazuha banner that at least means the next 5 star after you use your guarantee is very likely to be the feature character (either by being a 50/50 win or by trigfering Radiance, which is estimated at a 75% chance to trigger if you lose a third 50/50). Point being you should be able to reasonably plan on the next five star after you guarantee being the featured character (if it isnt then you got truly unlucky and then the one after that next guarantee is 100% the featured character, nobody has lost more than 4 50/50s in a row with Radiance being a mechanic now, but most Radiance triggers seem to happen on the third 50/50 loss)
im wishing for chiori's weapon today for my alhaitham and im praying to the heavens above i get it casue if i get xiolens sig i may pull her wish me luck
her english voice sucks it sounds like nerdy velma from scooby doo, i prefer her japanese voice much more soothing and fits her ara ara momy appearance
I really fkn hate this game. Lost my 50/50 again to fkn mona. Bro is this even normal ? Its like 5th or 6th lost back to back. At this point theres no point of playing this sht anymore. Im really sad and depressed 🤦
Capturing Radiance now exists to mitigate sequential 50/50 losses. But it only starts tracking them from your 5.0+ wishes. That aside, imo it may be healthy to stop playing if you arent enjoying it. I certainly understand feeling burnt out by the gacha system (4 star rng hell does it for me and probably wouldve made me quit if I wasnt also a creator). The only way to avoid it is to plan on only getting what you want if you have enough to guarantee, and expect nothing else. If you forever wish for units expecting to get them winning a 50/50, then sometimes you lose a 50/50. Its not that unexpected to for a coin flip to land on tails after all. Gachas just feel rough when it takes so many resources to flip that damn coin, so all you can do is make sure you plan around guarantees, not 50/50s, and if you do then you will just end up going “eh oh well” when you lose, but happy that you saved some wishes when you win. Balance your expectations around the guaranteed aspects of the system, not the RNG
