Starter Characters Only: 4.5 Spiral Abyss 

Xiangling carry too much lol I need her c4 so hard 😢😢it would change my damage so much

I just found your content. This is a really good concept. Starter building is so relatable! I will recommend this vid!

Player on the Other Side is such a banger

Clearly not fully built then 💀

@@fastgameknight rip my future

​@@fastgameknightNo they don't. You just have to know how to proc your weapon , talents and artifact buffs properly. Practice on the samurai in inazuma or the geovishap. Monitor your stats while doing so to make sure you're procing everything. There's a RU-vidr named betweenblackandwhite. In his videos, he tries to squeeze the most damage he can out of some of the characters. I'm talking 260K vapes with Gaming using the rainslicer. Watch him and his process, and you'll she how he works his way up to big damage.

No way man, my hu tao does a casual 100 k per charged attack when buffed and furina up to 30 k as well.

@@fastgameknight high level talents and not bad crit rate/damage ratio what else should I do.

I have always thought anemo traveller was the best but was never able to push him so far.

I use kazuha all the time for that reason only. It's really wild to see this mechanic in game. Hoping hoyo will make a character that utilizes this kit. I'll take it even if it is a 4 star.

Thanks, 👍! Technically, I used Engulfing Lightning, which isn’t really considered “F2P” by most players, in 12-1 because I wasn’t sure how to pass the DPS check. However, I do know it’s possible to clear 12-1 without that weapon. liilli has done a starter characters only run on their channel too, and they used an even more “F2P” setup.

You think its tougher than the previous one ?

@@not_sam4620 Compared to the last one, yes.

@@antoniogabriel6461 damn... I felt just the opposite... I used same teams in both abyss ( neuvi hy BL and rational ) i felt this abyss was way easier compared to the last one

@@not_sam4620 lol the last one was so easy for me.

@@antoniogabriel6461 what teams did you use i mostly struggled with my rotation against the wenut once i got it right i was able to 36 star as the other 2 chambers were quite easy

👍 for liilli’s starter characters only runs too

In fact one of the easiest Abyss of all time

this is way easier tho lol

Thanks! Final exams week ended last week and I’m now working on the Melt Amber Both Sides video, 👍

@@TurtleCamera can't wait to watch it! I love Collei and I'm planning to make a full green team with her,kuki,Sucrose and baizhu! So you inspired me to build her right ♡

You’re welcome! It did help, 👍

And build

And build

Thanks!

I remember you too! Thanks for your continued support, 👍!

@@TurtleCamera Ofcourse!

👍 X2

Thanks for the subscription! I am from his Discord server

Chevy is not a starter character tho. The whole reason for this abyss run is to prove a point. That you can clear abyss without pulling any charcters, using only those given by mihoyo in story quests

@madamenonchalant7021 I know that, I was just mentioning my personal preferences, I'd switch lynette for chevreuse for more dmg output, not to invalidate their point

Thanks! Someone suggested in the comments of the 4.1 Starter Characters Only run to try out Honkai: Star Rail’s music, so I tested it in this video. It’s called “The Player on the Other Side.”

@@TurtleCameraSounds great!

@kyogre-blue 👍

Thanks! Your run is better, though, 👍

As much as I want my videos to blow up, I wish it was liilli who blew up in the Starter Characters Only category to be honest. Melt Amber was meant to be my main form of content while Starter Characters Only was supposed to be secondary content on my channel. liilli is often much better at Starter Characters Only runs and makes it their main form of content, but they seldom get attention for it. They deserve so much more attention.

If you’re referring to the second one I used, it’s “The Player on the Other Side,” which is a soundtrack from Honkai: Star Rail, 👍

👍 X2

👍

👍 X3

its the boss mechanic tho. Right?

@@nie_huiyup. this one is similar to the field generator, in which they both increase jumping height

@nie_hui It is the boss mechanic, but I know what they mean. The way I’m doing it looks similar to dragonstriking, just without the dash.

Thanks! The music name is in the pinned comment of this video, but it’s “The Player on the Other Side.”

@@TurtleCamera oops sorry😬 thanks

I am pretty sure we do not have one because inazuma is quest locked region. New players would not be able to go to inazuma to collect materials for character building.

@@yereveluvies well that didn’t stop the game from giving me Kuki on my first 10 pull so why not?

A lot of the tips I have are shared in the text commentary of my videos, though there are some parts of the video that I dedicate to explaining the theory behind the run (e.g., fights like the Jadeplume Terrorshroom are relatively straightforward, so I use that time to explain theory instead). As for a general set of tips, two things I’d recommend are the following: - Find a way to group enemies effectively - Try to find a fixed rotation for your team that sustains everyone’s energy needs if possible. That way, it takes away a lot of the stress in playing a team.

Thanks. Right now, I am having trouble clearing the abyss even though I have good builds on my 5 star characters.

​@@TurtleCamerado you memorize the monsters attack patterns and side step to dodge them?

I do memorize most of them. It helps me a lot with figuring out when to engage or play defensively, so I get as much value out of my abilities as possible.

@@TurtleCamera How long have you been playing genshin? Do you consider that team as "well built"? Do you do 1 on 1 tutorials? Thanks for answering my questions

XiangLing’s Pyronado has no ICD, so she applies pyro too quickly to reliably trigger overload (as in I can’t easily override the pyro aura with an electro aura for XiangLing to overload)

@@TurtleCamera I see... I just was interested to actually play this team but I guess I just need to learn it more Thanks for the tip

@@mohamedahmedramzy792 You're welcome, 👍!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I've actually spent quite a bit of time considering the balance between gameplay and text in my Spiral Abyss videos in the past. Ultimately, I've decided that the primary focus should be on the gameplay itself, with text serving as supplementary information. Before I experimented with implementing voice overs, I encountered challenges in striking the right balance. The text you see in the videos covers only about 25% of the information I could potentially share, and I even had to halve the amount of information displayed due to feedback about readability. Introducing voice overs to explain everything led to another set of issues. I found myself needing to slow down the footage significantly to elaborate on all the information I could share, deviating from my intended style. To address this, I created a separate series called VoD Reviews on my channel. Currently, my solution involves providing a version of the video without text commentary, alongside reducing the amount of information by half, as previously mentioned. This alternative version is linked as an unlisted video in the description. Unless a compelling alternative arises, I intend to maintain the current format (or reduce the amount of information shown even more) based on recent feedback. In a recent poll, 86% of voters found the text speed to be just right, with 5% suggesting it was too slow and 9% indicating it was too fast.

In the text commentary, I mentioned that Gust Surge can lift enemies high enough to make them incur fall damage. I just kept resetting until both operatives took fall damage at least once.

I would make one if I didn’t feel like I don’t have much to contribute, given that there are many good guides out there already.

I’m using her for pyro resonance and to feed pyro particles into XiangLing

I don’t pull for Barbara’s constellations since they don’t help me much

On my main account, I crowned all 3 of her talents since I main her, 👍

Here’s a like for your comment too, 👍

It’s mentioned in the text commentary, but it is due to fall damage, 👍

Anemo Traveler should be replaceable here, as long as Venti is sometimes causing fall damage (one source of damage I relied on)

They did, 👍

The thumbnail has been update to show much less. Hopefully, it’s less confusing.

It is fridge for 12-1 and 12-2, but I used hyper-bloom in 12-3. In the text commentary, I mentioned that I’ll find a solution to representing this in the thumbnail later.

@@TurtleCamera nice job👍👍👍

It’s “The Player On the Other Side” from Honkai: Star Rail.

I show their builds at the end of the video, but here are their constellations: - Kaeya: C5 - Collei: C4 - Traveler: C6 for both Anemo and Dendro - Barbara: C2 - Lisa: C4 - Amber: C2 - XiangLing: C6 - Noelle: C6 - Lynette: C1 Later, I’m hoping to get C4 Lynette, C6 Kaeya, and C4 Amber (maybe C6). The rest of the constellations don’t help too much in my opinion.

It’s outlined in much more detail in the 4.2 video, but every ability in the game (including normal attacks) deals a set amount of poise damage, though there’s no visible number that shows up in-game. All enemies and characters in the game have a poise bar, and dealing enough damage will poise-break them. This allows you to stagger the enemy, which I use for grouping.

They are obtainable without wishing tho. Collei (dendro) from clearing Abyss Floor 4 and Lynette (anemo) from reaching AR25

both are starter ni 3.0 n 4.0..
