Edit 2: Someone pointed out that the total theoretical time for 12-1 is over 3 minutes. Once again, I apologize for that. I should have timed it more carefully. I’ll try to pay attention to that in the future. I'm currently redoing runs for 12-1-1, but I do have a run that's on the fence for a 3-star clear: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UHI5PNx3kwk.html. I'll still wait for better cards to get a faster run, though. Important Note: As mentioned in the community post, I had to stop the attempts early due to real-life commitments. Instead of showing a continuous 12-1 run, I'll present a theoretical 3-star clear by combining footage from 12-1-1 and 12-1-2, totaling about 2 minutes and 59 seconds. I'm currently in one of the busiest parts of my graduate school career, mostly because of Ph.D. applications and my M.S. thesis. I had to stop before it cut into time I need for school, so I hope you understand. I might need to do more theoretical runs in the future due to my heavy workload, but I'll still aim to avoid them when possible. Thanks for your continued support! Edit 1: While rewatching the video, I noticed that my text commentary for 12-3-2 doesn’t accurately match the footage. During testing, casting Noelle’s shield after her Burst usually times the shield explosion right as I cast Pyronado, but I messed up the order a few times in the video.
If you’re comfortable with answering, what’s your MS thesis on, and what field are you getting a PHD in? As a fellow genshin player interested in furthering my academic career, I’m curious what others with similar interests pursue.
@journeybeforedestination2281 I’m alright with talking about my academic career. I’m a computer science student with a specialization in machine learning. My M.S. thesis is on neural network interpretability. You can think of it as trying to understand and explain how neural networks work and perform well. I intend to pursue the same field for my Ph.D.; namely, computer science with a specialization in machine learning. Ideally, I would like to study graph neural networks, interpretability, or optimization in machine learning models, but I am open to other branches of this field.
Bro took an Overload team into the chamber with high pyro and electro res. With starter units. No cheveruse no nothing. And cleared faster than my decked out double hydro with xilonen and kazuha. 😂 Always learning something new from these vids. Good luck with your applications!
i literally recommended your channel to a low ar who felt they absolutely NEEDED five stars to clear abyss. it’s so satisfying seeing your work (good luck getting your phd!)
I started this account a little over a year late into the game, so I prioritized going for constellations that helped with my DPS output. Barbara’s constellations past C2 don’t help the team’s DPS output, so I didn’t go for them.
7:14 -"Most of the rotation's damage happens after casting Pyronado, so I aim to break the shield with Noelle's C4 at that moment." THIS KIND OF ROTATION PLANNING IS WHY I LOVE YOUR CONTENT SO MUCH, GODDAMN 😤
It’s unfortunate that Kachina can’t deal much damage to Geo shields, so I had to swap her for Noelle in 12-3-2. Also, I was focused on raising more characters for the Imaginarium Theatre on the alt account, so Kachina has some level 0 artifacts on her, RIP.
Very nicely done! They've done an enemy HP bonus increase I fear what HoYo will try next to put an end to Turtle's streak of starter character clears Good luck with graduate school!
still a perfect run! watching your spiral abyss videos makes me try a bit harder :) can’t get 36 stars even with neuvi, raiden, yelan, nahida, xilonen and so on 🤓 12-1 makes me displeased with its geo shields and huge amount of def stat on enemies. i even own a geo team with itto and still struggle :p poor boy can’t use his ult in time. i’ll try to save time using the tricks from the video bc with this abyss even my neuvi couldn’t help me haha. thank u for your efforts
I'd have lost a lot less hair had i thought of luring the castrated beasts to the wall. Easily the worst part of this current abyss assuming you can deal with the shields.
Woohoo it's out! It's incredible that you beat 12-1-2 without overload or geo. Also, the text was pretty easy to read this time. Not sure if it's because you shortened it or because you timed it in a certain way. Great video, and good luck with school!
Thanks, 👍! It technically isn’t a real 3-star run, but theoretically can be one based on the merged footages from two different runs. Also, regarding the text, I did the following: - I shortened the text as much as possible, which does sacrifice some details that were important in the run (but not applicable to most players). - I extended the duration the text shows on the screen. - I put more effort into making the text actually describe what’s happening on the screen (if applicable).
bro please, admit and reveal that you lowered these guys health to clear the abyss. You clearly know victorias secret and the entire lore of wisdom cause wa da heeeeelll how in the world did you do it?
It’s not necessary, but in past experiences, the difference between using 5-star weapons and 4-star weapons was minimal. I also need at least two Favonius users on each team too.
@@TurtleCamera Ohhhh I get it, Energy is super important the way the teams work. I thought maybe A Thousand Floating Dreams could be better than Sac Fragments, or maybe Ayaka's sword could be a bit better for the passives, or even Engulfing Lightning over The Catch, what makes the difference? I want to learn more about this challenge! I really love your content as always
Some of those weapons are definitely better than what I’m currently using. It’s just that I only notice a few seconds of difference when using 5-star weapons, so I chose to “limit” myself more. Usually, there’s a way to shave a few seconds off by making better plays and micro-decisions. The only 5-star weapon in that list that I think might be a downgrade is A Thousand Floating Dreams because Sacrificial Fragments resets Barbara’s skill, which is important for DPS uptime.
I plan to use Natlan’s theme in the 5.1 [2] Spiral Abyss. I just thought it would be repetitive if I used the same theme two versions in a row, and there were many Fontaine enemies in this version.
Your game play is insane 😮 also quick question, do you think levelling to 90 makes a huge difference? I have my mains levelled to 85 because i dont have enough books 😢
People have told me that it depends on the character and how you use them. For example, bloom-related reactions scale a lot with character level. DPS characters that scale off HP might be worth considering because HP scaling is pretty strong in this game. Some say that Bennett is another character that might be worth considering. There are probably more examples of characters that might be worth bringing to level 90, but that’s what I could think of at the top of my head. Of course, you can always just bring the character to level 90 if you really like the character, like I did with my starter characters on this alt account and the characters on my Melt Amber team on my main account.
Bro you are a fucking god I mentally gave up on genshin because I thought the game is just stupid powercreep and my dear Kaeya was ass and now you are clearing with him on the second chamber without Geo you are so fucking good… do you have any recommendations for Kaeya teams on the second half if you could use 5 stars?
Frankly, I don’t know how to play him outside of these starter characters only runs, but I’ll ask some other people about his playstyle. I’ll reply to your comment again when I have more information.
Yuxraal from Furu’s Discord server gave me some information about Kaeya, so I’ll copy and paste his message here: “Unfortunately, kaeya's floor and ceiling are quite close in terms of teams, in the way that you don't really have a significant discrepancy in personal damage from four-star-only teams to more premium ones, so "if you could use 5 stars" doesn't really add much to the equation Kaeya's best team in terms of personal damage is reverse melt (Rosaria, Bennett, Kazuha); though if he's at C6 then Kazuha needs to be replaced with Xiangling or Jean to keep pyro aura Besides that, he's also good in freeze (any second cryo but most notably ayaka, any hydro but most notably mona or kokomi, Kazuha) where he'll have less personal damage but can be a very good battery for the second cryo character This remains true if using a dendro character instead of Kazuha for a fridge team but they've probably been made full aware of that with your videos Lastly, C6 Kaeya specifically is able to enable forward melt Diluc (Bennett, Kazuha/Xilonen, Diluc), but it's a team where he's played as a support and loses out on personal damage due to er requirements, so probably not what the commenter was looking for”
@@TurtleCamerathank you for the detailed reply, I will get to trying and testing out these teams, on a side note, is there a discord server where I could join with you guys? I already subscribed to the channel and I’m asking for more lol😂
My secret is just farming almost exclusively for artifacts on this account (that is, until the Imaginarium Theatre was released because almost all of my other characters were level 1 on this account), 👍
@tuxidokamen I’m not sure which one it better. If I were to guess, a Geo DMG Bonus goblet is probably better. Most of Noelle’s damage went into the Geo shield, so I stacked CRIT Rate for Favonius Greatsword.
Thanks! Here's a response to another comment that I copied: "I’m alright with talking about my academic career. I’m a Computer Science student with a specialization in machine learning.

I was going to congratulate you, but the gameplay has a continuity error. How does the time between chambers increase instead of remaining exact? chamber 1, 8 minutes and 38 seconds. start of chamber 2, 9 minutes and 5 seconds. WHAT?
