Didn't win TGA, but at least we're still getting another batch of 800 freemos as thanks for participation. Plus another 300 tonight, so 1.1k in totes.

Don't worry, you're not the only one. Seems a lot of SEA players are experiencing the same thing. Could be issues from Genshin servers if not Unifi. Lots of people reported similar issues from weeks back, mine only started a week or two ago.

Chiori's Signature Weapon: Yuraku Odenkiri(有楽御簾切)
Lv90
Base Attack Power: 542
Critical Damage: 88.2%

Brocade of Flowers and the Sword in the Niche: R1
When on the field, damage dealt by normal and charged attacks is increased by 16%. When in the off-field team, the damage dealt by elemental skills is increased by 24%. If team members nearby deal Geo elemental damage while on the field, the aforementioned effects are further increased by 100%, lasting for 15 seconds. Additionally, the defense of the wielder is increased by 20%.

Chiori E:

Feathered Sleeve Touch
Chiori swiftly lunges forward in a dance-like motion with flowing silk and satin, and upon completion of the lunge, summons an "Autonomous Puppet: Sleeve" by her side, delivering an upward slash attack. This deals AoE Geo damage to nearby enemies based on Chiori's attack power and defense.
Holding the skill initiates a different action.

Hold:
Enters aiming mode to adjust the direction of the lunge.

Autonomous Puppet: Sleeve

Periodically launches slicing attacks at nearby enemies, dealing AoE Geo damage based on Chiori's attack power and defense.
If a Geo construct is nearby during its existence, an additional Autonomous Puppet: Sleeve is summoned at the location of the Geo construct. Only one additional Autonomous Puppet: Sleeve can be summoned in this way, and its duration is calculated independently.
"Exquisite paintings dye the cherry blossoms; the residual fragrance of the flowers lingers on the sleeves, intoxicating the warblers time and again."

Puppet Multiplier: 148 Attack, 185 Defense
Puppet Duration: 17s, attacks once every 3.6s
Damage upon skill release: 269% Attack plus 336% Defense.

Q:

Twin Blades Form: Wing to wing
Unsheathing dual blades, a sharp and decisive cut is delivered with the poise of a skilled tailor, inflicting AoE Geo damage based on Chiori's attack power and defense.

"With one principle grasped, all other laws are understood."

The Elemental Burst (Q) deals damage calculated as 651 Attack plus 814 Defense.

Talent 1: Tailor-Made
After the upward slash attack of the "Feathered Sleeve Touch," different follow-up actions yield different effects: Pressing the elemental skill again triggers the follow-up effect "Weaving Brocade"; pressing the normal attack triggers the follow-up effect "Trimming Brocade."

Talent 2: Icing on the Brocade
When characters in the team nearby create a Geo construct, Chiori receives a 20% Geo elemental damage bonus, lasting for 20 seconds.

Weaving Brocade:
Switches characters, allowing the next character of the team to take the stage.
Applies "On-the-spot Ingenuity" to all the team's characters: When the current character on the field hits with normal attacks, charged attacks, or plunging attacks, the Autonomous Puppet: Sleeve will perform a coordinated attack at the enemy's location, dealing AoE Geo damage equal to 100% of the upward slash attack of "Feathered Sleeve Touch." The damage caused in this way is considered elemental skill damage.
"On-the-spot Ingenuity" lasts for 8 seconds, triggering a maximum of one coordinated attack from Autonomous Puppet: Sleeve every 2 seconds. During one period of "On-the-spot Ingenuity," a maximum of 2 coordinated attacks can be triggered.

Trimming Brocade:
Chiori gains a Geo enchantment, lasting for 5 seconds.
If Chiori does not press the elemental skill or normal attack again within a short period after the upward slash of "Feathered Sleeve Touch," the follow-up effect "Trimming Brocade" will be triggered.

1st Constellation: The attack range of the Autonomous Puppet: Sleeve from "Feathered Sleeve Touch" is increased by 50%.
Additionally, if there is a Geo element character other than Chiori in the team, the following effects will be triggered at the end of the lunge of "Feathered Sleeve Touch":
An additional Autonomous Puppet: Sleeve is summoned. Only one additional Autonomous Puppet: Sleeve summoned in this way can exist at the same time as one summoned through a Geo construct.
Activates the intrinsic talent "Icing on the Brocade."

This effect requires unlocking the intrinsic talent "Icing on the Brocade."

2nd Constellation: Within 8 seconds after triggering the subsequent effects of the intrinsic talent "Tailor-Made," namely "Weaving Brocade" or "Trimming Brocade," when the current character of the team on the field hits an enemy with a normal attack, charged attack, or plunging attack, a "Simplified Autonomous Puppet: Silk" will be summoned near the enemy.

The Simplified Autonomous Puppet: Silk will attack nearby enemies, dealing AoE Geo damage equal to 170% of the Autonomous Puppet: Sleeve's slash damage. The damage dealt in this way is considered elemental skill damage.
The Simplified Autonomous Puppet: Silk will retreat after performing one attack or after existing for 3 seconds.
A maximum of one Simplified Autonomous Puppet: Silk can be summoned every second through the aforementioned method, and a maximum of 3 such effects can be triggered during one duration of the intrinsic talent "Tailor-Made" effect of "On-the-spot Ingenuity" or "Trimming Brocade."

Unlocking the intrinsic talent "Tailor-Made" is required for this effect.

3rd Constellation: E+3 (Enhances the level of the Elemental Skill by 3).

4th Constellation: Within 10 seconds after casting Twin Blades Form: Wing to Wing, a Simplified Autonomous Puppet: Silk is summoned beside Chiori every 3 seconds.

5th Constellation: Q+3 (Enhances the level of the Elemental Burst by 3).

6th Constellation: After triggering the "Trimming Brocade" effect of the intrinsic talent "Tailor-Made," the cooldown of Chiori's own "Feathered Sleeve Touch" is reduced by 14.5 seconds. Additionally, she gains "Thousand Purple Clear Waters," lasting for 5 seconds.
During "Thousand Purple Clear Waters," the damage dealt by Chiori's normal attacks, charged attacks, and plunging attacks is increased, with the increase equal to the sum of 50% of Chiori's attack power and 180% of her defense.
This effect can be triggered at most once every 15 seconds. "Thousand Purple Clear Waters" will be removed after Chiori's normal attack, charged attack, or plunging attack hits 5 times or when the duration ends.
Unlocking the intrinsic talent "Tailor-Made" is required for this effect.

Chiori Ascension/Talent Materials

Talent Books: Teachings of Light
Enemy Drop: Spectres
Boss Material: Artificed Spare Clockwork Component — Coppelia
Local Specialty: Dendrobium (edited)

Chiori Utility Passive

Movement Speed +10% under the condition that someone in the team is wearing attire other than the default outfit or wings other than the default wings.

Chiori Weekly Boss Material

Lightless Silk String

Lv. 90 Chiori base stats

HP 11438
ATK 323
DEF 953

Ascends with CRIT Rate


TL;DR - Better Albedo. Lazy to attach pics.

Chiori has a playstyle that revolves around geo constructs. She herself doesn't spawn any geo constructs, but her E damage increases based on the geo constructs present. So I wouldn't say Albedo is completely obsolete at this point, but I doubt the meta favors Geo constructs to begin with, since it gets destroyed easily. Her siggy also works with Albedo.

Personally, based on what I've read and seen online from early tc, she feels a little less stringent in terms of Geo team comp and you don't really have to put her in there. She needs geo constructs to improve her doll damage, but she doesn't need it to function as a sub-dps. Unfortunately, I've read that Chiori has the least synergy with Navia because Navia's already good on her own. Folks were hoping Chiori would be the savior to element, but it looks Hoyo has other plans for her. Right now, Navia alongside Wriothesely are some of the game's top dps for speedrunning, due to how much frontloaded damage is packed into their elemental skills, particularly Navia.

Chori animations

Naisu, 300-ish pulls for 4 constellations is below the 50% confidence rate.

Actually, found something rather useful for folks looking to whale.



Also super happy to have cleared Chenyu Vale. PTSD with stupiak Chinese mountains.





158400 primogem milestone here I comeeeeee

I feel you. Zipping around with the spirit carp is convenient, though I find the mechanic a little clunky at times, specifically with the simulacrum. Now I zip around with the sling in Sumeru and think I'm expected to left click to fly in a different direction. Still, not really a fan of exploring Liyue regions due to the mountains but glad they implemented a traversal mechanic to make it easier for those without Xianyun, Wanderer, Venti or Kazuha to explore.

Want to know, which hyperinvested team did you use to clear Floor 12, second half this round ?

Brb, gonna post Arlecchino leaks.

4.6 Weekly boss - Arlecchino











Lots of Arlecchino images have been dmca-ed and removed.

But TL;DR of Arlecchino - Pyro on-fielder, signature weapon is polearm but has scythe animations, only shows when using with her. Other polearms don't have the same effect, nor will other polearm characters when using her weapon. 4.6 expansion occurs in the large gap between Sumeru, Liyue and Fontaine. 4.6 is heavily based on Remuria, a land from European folklore about magic.

Emilie in 4.8 with regard to your question about burning, or it looks like it. Seems like we're diving into a pyro-meta by Aug 2024. Unfortunately, I'll have to say the second half of floor 12 is out of my element for me, given I don't run mono Geos. That said, since I hyperinvested in my Raiden, it took little effort for me to clear the content. On my friend's account who I have been grinding however, took a few tries lol.

Clorinde leaks are here and I am sooo happy!!! My time to pull has finally come .





For the picture without translation, C6 grants coordinated attack. Talent involves manipulating Bond of Life to grant 20% increased crit rate.

She's an on-field dps.

Also new abyss is co-op based.

Wanted her to be on-field dps, so happy she is one .

si kutu rayau

Heard they apparently introduced the abyss to provide some higher end-game content, because the new abyss comes with restrictions. You're meant to play in pairs only.

24 hours to Clorinde's drip

si kutu rayau and LegendLee

C6R5 Clorinde here I come! C2R1 Sigewinne too perhaps. Then time to backtrack older 5*s. C2R1 Furina, C2R1 Nahida. Then go into C2R1 Pyro Archon. After that I think it's just who I want to pull.

Been saving since Nov 2023 and still saving till the day her banner drops. Can I invite you to my live stream when I pull?

No need ah. Baseline for C6R5 is around 900-1300 pulls. I'm sitting at 1280

For your reference. Taking baseline 50% confidence, it's around there ba. Maybe Hoyo knows you whale, so purposely rigged your gacha system kek.

From experience, most of my 5 stars drop during 70th-80th mark. I will say it's taken me lesser than 600 rolls to get a C6 character on limited banner. Can't say the same for wep banners since it doesn't have a pity that works similarly to the Epitomized Path, that said I think it is possible. If I don't end up getting Clorinde to C6R5 levels, but receive the featured weapon for another 5* that reruns with her, I'll happily take that.

And yes, by rigged, I meant si kutu rayau's luck is pretty sh!tty
