He seems real dope but I already have C1 Hu Tao and not really worried about anything beyond that.



I do have 120 wishes saved up for another Staff Of Homa, though. :wow:

Fred.


I didn't like his gameplay at all in the trial

That staff of homa banner looking good though :mjcry: I've got to stay strong and save my tolls for itto

He's essentially a pyro Xingqiu so I wouldn't really "play" him per se.

Give him a Sacrificial Sword, use his skill, use his burst when it's up, then switch to another character.

As far as Itto, the only reason I'm using wishes now is because the next banner is Albedo, then Itto/Gorou. So Itto won't be up until the middle of December, plenty of time to save more wishes.

I wouldn't be rolling on the Hu Tao banner regardless as Itto is guaranteed for me.

I have c1 zhong crowned c6 Ning fully crowned and Noelle C5 level 8 skills so I'm interested in trying a fully Geo team if he's a main DPS and I'll run Ning as burst support.

I just struggle to roll on the weapons banners as I feel like I'm getting ripped off even more so than the character banners

Given Itto's stats he'll definitely be a main DPS.

Gorou being on the same banner....rolling for Itto is a no-brainer.

As far as the weapon banner, even though I roll on it I'd advise against it. :manny:

She is. I've been reading that Xiangling has the same dps though if built around her burst. I'd have to test it out.

I have Xinagling with full Severed Fate, C6, etc. all that bullshyt. Something like 90% crit rate. The only thing she needs is R5 The Catch, which I'm currently farming for.

Anyway, Xinagling's burst does crazy damage but even going a full energy recharge build, her burst obviously isn't up as often as Hu Tao's elemental skill. Which is where most of her damage comes from. With Staff Of Homa the gap is even bigger. I have something like 4,500 attack on my C1 Hu Tao.:mjlol:

TLDR; Xinagling does great damage but Hu Tao does it more consistently.

So on my f2p mobile account I decided to gamble and try doubling up. Had a guaranteed 5 star so I used it to get tartaglia. I had enough primos saved for about 6 ten pulls, and got Thoma on the first, and Hu Tao on the fourth pull just now.:mjgrin:

I'll wait and see what Itto's gameplay looks like, but honestly I'm thinking I'll just save up for Ganyu/Yae at this point
