Any of ya'll on?

I didn't see this until mad later. :snoop:

I hope you cats cleared out the shops, the event ended last night.

Next character banner should start January 12th, although there's some conflicting reports on who will be on it. Some say Ganyu (ice, bow) some say Xiao (wind, polearm).

Also there's a rumor patch 1.3 will be February 1st and Zhongli's banner will return. Which makes sense because the geo buff is in that update. So if you guys didn't get him you might get another shot at it.

Fred.

Nope. I didn't clear out the last event chapter store cuz the plant is a cheap sumnuvabytch and only until last night did I roll with a squad that we could consistently kill it, yet it also kept glitching out on us and while I was playing just before the clock was coming to an end. Also, I was literally passing out continuously during the fight, so I turned it off and went to bed angry with nine minutes before banner ended, seeing that there was no way that I was going to beat him 20 more times in that time frame.

Man next time hit me up on here and we'll roll together. Not every team I had was good but 90% of the time the plant was dying, at most, in 2-3 minutes.

shyt was way glitchy. I got lucky and and got a team with 2 Bennetts and a Keqing. I had Diluc so it was straight easy mode once I figured out how to beat it.

Yeah I cleared the store. It was actually easier solo than in co-op.

Really? :mjtf:

Not that it was particularly difficult to solo but the shyt died so fast in co-op. Maybe I just got lucky and had competent help, I dunno.

Seeing a good Keqing in action made me decide to level the character. At some point, now I'm working on Bennett.

To be honest it depended on the group you were with. I found a group that I managed to do it in 50 seconds with. It was so fast I even took a screenshot of the time. I ran with them for a few runs but then brehs jumped out. Then encountered some scrubs and decided to just finish it off on my own, which ended up being super easy :yeshrug:


Some say Ganyu (ice, bow) some say Xiao (wind, polearm).

I hope it’s Xiao. I heard youtubers saying he’s great for damage but he’s selfish in the sense that he’s not team utility focused, but I don’t care about none of that. Son looks cool so I’m going to pull for him.

She's insane. This dude Jeikage got me into her, she does crazy damage.



But it'll be ages before I level her up.:francis: Gonna focus on maxing my main 2 teams before anything else.

I'm thinking Xiao will be the next banner followed by Ganyu. Hu Tao will probably be after that in 1.3.

My sole reasoning behind that is the new polearm that leaked, which will be in 1.3. Both Xiao and Hu Tao are polearm users and both have abilities that affect their HP. Which plays into the new polearm. Kinda how Vortex Vanquisher and Summit Shaper tied into Zhongli's and Albedo's talents.

Never mind Ganyu is next. :francis:



She seems cool and I got a 5* bow, might roll for her.

why the metacritic so low on PS4, is it review bombed or is the shyt really that bad. The optimization and FR does look poor even on pro but nothing hideous

I play on PC so I haven't experienced it first hand but I heard it runs like shyt on the PS4. Heard it's fine on the Pro.
