As an C2 Ayato main myself i can definetly say he's the most lacking hydro 5* in the game.

Unlike most ppl i didn't bench him after getting Neuv, i still use him with Furina Yelan monohydro quite often
Yeah unfortunately Neuvi just powercreeps the shit out of Ayato because anything Ayato can do, Neuvi can do better...you can run any hydro based team with Neuvi and he's on field as a gigantic applicator that gets more damage for varied teams. All Neuvi wants is three hydro based reactions of any kind including hydro swirl or hydro crystalize meaning you can throw legit anything together and make it work. Ayato is decent, but like, that's all he is. "Jack of all trades, master of none", but Neuvi just does it so much better unfortunately. The good thing is Ayato is just "that guy that's there when you need hydro" so if your teams are taking up other units, he can slot in just fine.
My most not regretted character to me is Childe; because he’s my 2nd favourited character in the game after Capitano, which’s extremely high thing to me, I really love his story, and what he did in Fontaine, he literally carried the first version of Fontaine, with not being from Fontaine, absolutely Chad. And how he saved Fontaine indirectly; by not allowing the All-Devouring Narwal; to reach Fontaine for 45 days; which’s extremely a big thing, like imagine, Neuvillette was not able to hold of attacking the Narwal for secends, and the Narwal only did for him some Physical attacks, and what about 45 DAYS?!? That shows the big gap between Neuvillette, and Childe's power in lore. And the Narwal would be the real Tayvat ender, if Childe didn’t prevent him from not reaching Fontaine; because if it reached Fontaine early, it would destroy it, and continue it's devouring to Tayvat, after devouring the stars. and the prove is that some of Fontaine world Quest that's about Melusins; there’s an abyssal place called by (???), and you can go for it by taking the pages (the 10 one is missed); and that abyssal place it referring to how the world would be after it’s end, and devoured by the Abyss, and the Narwal, and preventing Childe to that creature for 45 days of not reaching Fontaine; made me really like Childe. Also his gameplay is realllly fun if you knows really well about how to play him. ❤ I give him (4) Nobless, and Bennett instructor, and my Xiangling hits for 66k, and he hits for more than 260k by his ranged burst.
I've been playing since 1.0 and I don't regret anyone. All the chars I've pulled since 1.0 I still use to this day. The only exception is childe bcus I was trying to get rosaria and ended up getting him in the process. Even though I never built him I don't necessarily regret pulling for him bcus I didn't really lose anything in the long run since I still got all the chars i wanted anyways. I don't have a reason to stop playing anyone and still enjoy them so I have no reason to regret them. I got navia accidentally because I really wanted candace and rosaria constellations and got navia. I didn't get a single rosaria constellation so she's still c1, but since I needed candace cons and I love navia's character and gameplay, I don't regret getting her one bit

While I don’t have him, I do agree with ayato. I really appreciate his jack of all trades quickswap playstyle but his numbers are way too low to even justify pulling him. It is unfortunate tho
Personally, I find the concept of regret pulls a bit hard to understand. I don't know if it's just me enjoying many playstyles, but I've pulled for 14 limited characters between 2.5 and now with 9 of them being on field DPSes and only one being C1 by accident (and it's not even a good con, it's Childe lol) and the only one I can come close to regreting is Ayaka. Thing is, I forgoed playing her in a freeze team to instead be in a boss team, and so even then I found a way to play her that was both fun and effective. And I usually find a way to play all of them within a given week, too, so no one's fully benched or anything. Add that with the fact I only really pull characters I like in personality or story, and it would be hard to say there was any regret. That said, I'm sorry there were characters you and anyone else regret. Maybe the first advice people should tell new players is to explore playstyles before rolling on any character banner so that they know exactly what's up their alley lol.
Not all of them are exactly bad if you build them right with good memory on how to play them despite the disadvantages it will work out depends on your skill
The character i regret pulling is Hu tao. Until now i didn't use her even i have Xingqui, Yelan, Zhongli and Furina maybe because i don't like HP manipulation in Hu tao compare to Neuvillette or Wriothesley (Hu Tao Heal was on Ultimate). My hu tao bench almost 2 ½ years. Yeah i know hu tao is good but not all people like her play style.
Yeah like deadass. His damage is just too bad. I have a alt acc where I worked on him and Eula for over a year. Ayato still peaking at 20k dmg per slash with Bennet circle and harbinger of dawn. Eula still only hitting for at most 200k with fking Lisa (TTDS) and Bennet.
The 4.5 banners are chiori, itto, neuvillte, and kazuha there also is gonna be a limited banner apparently? With albedo on it so far so I’m gonna skip all of 4.5 and save for the knave in 4.6
eh an albedo enjoyer, I also got him very early on he was just a great slot in whenever I just want him, mainly because my old teams were razor xiangling overload... so no vaporise or anything to have messed up. rip alrechinno opinion, I enjoyed her, evil for entertainment characters are the ones that's boring to me. I only enjoy the classic disney villains, because they die, so I can leave them behind. I like wanderer (or scara to be exact) because he's both I regret burst mode characters... itto, xiao, honestly probably cyno if I had gotten him but I fell short on primos. They are strong and fun when I use them because I built them, but I never used them outside of abyss because of energy.... I don't regret eula because I can use her for explo, domains and, now with furina, abyss
For me, I don't have any character that I regretted. At most, the character remains on the reserve bench. I regret situations, like the time I skipped Baizhu in his first banner because I think his look is horrible, even though everyone said he was excellent for Cyno.
You got a nice account. Childe was my first limited 5* too. Didn't want him, was trying for Rosaria when she was a new 4* and pulled both in my first 10 pull. I've used him just to try him but I don't like him at all. So he's permanently benched for me.
I regret Nahida. I didn’t want to invest many Primogems for the Dendro element. Nahida is the only 5 star I got for it, and my Dendro teams are just bad compared to my most invested teams. I sort of regretted Itto and Albedo. I always found them to be rather weak, and I hate how Itto is burst reliant. However, Furina C6 made me enjoy their Geo team a lot more. Simple and effective team, with Furina carrying it. I rarely use Ganyu (my first 5 star character) and Ayaka, because I have more efficient characters now, but I wouldn’t say I regret them. Ayaka is one of my favourite characters. Sometimes I have fun with Ganyu in events, and I like archers. I used both characters a lot in the past. Childe is also one of my favourite characters. He was also by far my most used character before getting Wanderer. I even slowly saved for his C4, just for fun. Now I almost abandoned him. However, I don’t regret getting him.
Give it some time with Nahida. She's cracked. She legit makes Dendro teams into the powerhouses that they are. Bloom with Nilou and no Nahida is fine, but Nahida supercharges it. Hyperbloom without Nahida is fine, but again, she super charges it...Burgeon? Same thing. Her personal DPS is actually GOATed. Just give it a while to gear up your other units and you'll be fine. I use her with Yae and it's actually comical how ridiculously AFK it is. It's absurdly strong in like EVERY situation that isn't legit hard countered by matchups and even then, I can just mix in Furina for quickbloom and destroy w/e it is. There's very, very little that can stand up to Yae Aggravate with Nahida C2. It's kind of disgusting.
Nahida is good. It is just that I didn’t want to invest much in teams with Dendro reactions. I didn’t get Nilou, Alhaitham, Cyno, Baizhu, Yae, etc. I don’t have Raiden, Shinobu, Kirara and others. I got Nahida C0, Wanderer C1 and none else until Fontaine.
Tldr: I regret pulling Ayato, Ayaka, Xiao, Itto, Neuvillette, Eula and Yoimiya the most; all of them simply due to not being fun to play for me in the long run in one way or another. In more detail about all of them: Ayato is a character I prefer to watch other people play instead of me playing him. His animations are really cool, but mechanically, he's just unsatisfying to play due to only needing to hold left click and him not being able to move while attacking. Ayaka's main issue is that (at least what feels like) 90% of her dmg is in her burst with a 20s long cooldown, so when you don't have burst up, it feels like she does nothing in comparison and when you have it, it's just 1 button press to do that 90% of dmg, which I just find unsatisfying. Xiao was fun to play... for about a week or two. Tbh, if his skill could just generate particles during his burst (I guess with an internal cooldown to not make C6 broken), he probably would've been much more fun to play for me. Even if using skill during burst pre-C6 still wouldn't necessarily be optimal, at least it would break the monotony of plunging and provide more mobility. As is, I just feel punished for using skill during burst because I either need more ER or spend more time batterying. Itto has both the claymore normal attacks which feel slow and clunky to me in general and then when he builds stacks, it's just hold left click and game does everything for you which is always boring to me. Neuvillette is basically just a bit better Ayato/Itto as he's at least able to move and aim while charged attacking; still kinda boring to me due to the 'just holding charged attack' gameplay. Eula is both Physical and on-field claymore, 2 things I don't really like, even though I like her a lot outside of gameplay. (Side note: why are all "dedicated" on-field Physical dps and most on-field Geo dps characters claymores? Even with the whole "they are neglected in other ways", I would probably like both "elements" much more if we just had more options in terms of the weapon type for a dedicated on-field dps) Yoimiya is probably my favorite out of these; the only thing I wish is that she wasn't so shield reliant, especially in Vape teams. As is, she is kinda boring with a shield and often cringe to play without a shield. The key difference that makes Yoimiya not as satisfying to me and Wanderer one of my absolute favorite characters in terms of fun is his mobility and not losing a lot of dmg every time he dodges (at least with A4) making him still risky, but much more manageable if you play without a shield, which is exactly the balance I'm looking for.
Only character I really regret getting is Itto. What I really wanted was Gorou. I do not remember how I even got Albedo but it was probably also for the 4 stars. Childe for me was critically important for clearing Spiral Abyss early on because his team could clear anything and it freed up Xingqiu for my Dilic and later Hu Tau. Once I had Hu Tao vape and Childe International the game became very easy.
I think I don't "regret" any characters, but I've just kind of moved on from some. The main issue that I have now is not taking characters to too many constellation upgrades. like C6 Nahida, C6 yelan would just delete so much, same with Yae C6, she's just absurd.
I regret Ayaka. Her freeze comp feels bad without her luxury all 5 star team and signature weapon, even then freeze isn’t even that good anymore and is pretty boring. Haven’t used her in almost a year.
I regret Rizzly. My only Fontaine dps but he was the only one to not turn out cracked + he depends on Bennett which is already contested for me (freeze is trash)
It's the thing that I'm terrified with Arlecchino. With Chevreuse, I fear that she's going to be Overload based and if nothing is done for Overload's knockback...like if she isn't given a Nilou passive to nullfy it or teleport to mobs like Rosaria on steroids it's going to be a HARD SKIP for me and for Columbina I go or Sandrone. @@GxGNoir
Wryo C0, Furina c0, XL, Beny is incredibly strong team. no 5 star weapons. Wryo, Furina, Kazuha, Charlotte is another if you need grouping. you can play even Wryo/Nahi/Kuki/hydro and he is very good onfielder. If you have him at C1 with his signature he can solo abyss.
Hello, Noir! My one of regretted characters is Ayaka. I pulled for her because of how people praise her, and says that she’s the best DPS in the game, even after the release of Sumeru Characters like Wanderer, Cyno, and Al-Haitham, even if you played her in extreme Cheap team, like: Xingqiu, Sucrose, and Diona; with F2P weapon, in that time; I convinced that she’s very good by the insane amount of people who praise her, and laughing every time to anyone who says that she’s on par with Ganyu, or Hu Tao is better than her, then I pulled for her in 3.5, and I'm insanely regret pulling for her. I found that she’s not good without Mona, and Shenhe with Kokomi, and I have none of them, and the main thing that made me regret pulling for her is that because I got her; I was unable to get Al-Haitham; which's my 4th favourited character, which's a very big thing to me, and I love him really a lot, and farmed for him to max, and triple crown, and you know what kind of liking I'm talking about when talking about giving the character triple crown, and I was unable to get him because of Ayaka… It’s true that I was able to kill the Wenut that came in 3.5 Spiral Abyss; with Sac sword R5, and with Xingqiu, Diona, and Kazuha, but it’s mainly because I cleared the first chamber with Hu Tao; extremely fast. So yeas I regret pulling for her…
Personally for me, Ganyu and Raiden are my only regrets. Ganyu is kind of dull, and building around her until recently felt shallow and unsatisfying, and I just prefer Ayaka (not by a whole lot but shes more enjoyable for me by a bit), and am definitely looking forward to Wriosthley when he reruns because his fighting style is very awesome (seriously, we need more fist fighting/monk type characters). As for Raiden, something about her never quite clicked for me, and it doesn't help that I'm not a fan of how her character was portrayed or how she conducts herself in general, with the final nail in the coffin for her being how even Kujo Sara C6 doesn't feel particularly good to play with how short her buff is for Raiden or especially other Electro characters (Yae can make it work spectacularly but outside of the big numbers she feels pretty bad to have a spot as your buffer). My favorite pulls were Klee (the first character I saw of this game pre-release that made me want to play in the first place, and she's so adorable! I still play her mono-pyro teams on occasion), Hu Tao (my favorite character in the game design-wise and personality-wise of the females, her strength is just a nice little cherry ontop), and Nilou (very pretty and elegant character while having some great vertical investment for some ludicrously huge AoE damage with other characters I enjoy that don't get a lot of time to shine for most teams).
Interesting that I hate Ganyu's style for CAs but love Lyney, I think it's because you can set up a huge nuke with Lyney, like his CAs aren't the ONLY THING that he does, and you can run him with mono pyro, overload, or straight up as a vape carry if you really wanted to, and make it work, though he does best in mono pyro (or with Chev). I think he's in the middle of the CA dps, Tighnari is the fastest, quick swap based, Lyney is somewhere in the middle, and Ganyu is the slow af CA user. That, and Lyney is funny/based and Ganyu is just boring.
I regret ayato but it is 100% my own fault. I pulled for him because I thought his character was cool despite that after trying him in the trial I knew I didn’t like his play style.
I don't have many, but the character I regret the most is definitely Ganyu. Character I regret skipping the most is Kazuha. That was rough... Character I'm glad I pulled the most was Ayaka. She was a massive power-spike for me. Most anticipated character pull... Murata. I haven't pulled since the beginning of Sumeru (didn't care for Dendro) because I'm expecting this unit to be a-freakin-mazing.
Inn terms of the characters I regret: Itto: I agree with what you said not as fun as he looked, especially bc i still don't have c6 gorou. i do want to try him with c6 gorou though Klee: Knew she was bad when i pulled in 1.6 but didn't care, now i care she really just doesn't feel good. kokomi: honestly with furina's release i don't really care about having her in freeze teams anymore. mono hydro with furina is fun and shes always my pick for nilou bloom but i could go without her alhaitham: idk i thought he looked kinda fun, he really just isn't that fun at all. ganyu: my first pull and i thought she was op at first. now her freeze teams just feel worse than ayaka and her melt teams feel horrible zhongli: idk how i feel abt him honestly, he kind of just makes the game more boring. honorable mention to childe who i also have benched however im inlove with him so i have no regrets
Clorinde can be worse than Dehya and I am still going to C6R1 her. I have already filed my marriage registration with Clorinde at my local city hall. All I need is for Hoyoverse to release her and I am a married man. (Jk, I am not that insane. Yet.)
Leaks say that she'll be overload based, or electrocharged based, and Siggewinne will be electrocharged support kind of like what Chev does for overload. Still a LONG time until then so eveerything can change or be bullshit so it's w/e.
My most regreted pulls are Ayaka (hate when her burst misses the target), and Zhongli (I find his shield a bit overkill for my liking). Other than that, no regrets (including Ayato)
I only have 3 five stars navia, furina, c1 mona. Although i haven't built mona i do like her and will build her when i have 36 starred the abyss, this abyss i got 31 stars(thanks to Navia and furina on different side)
Only regret i have is getting Cyno, I started playing late 3.0... if i waited just a few more weeks and I could've gotten Nilou, which till today I still dont have and I dont see myself getting her in her rerun cuz I wont have enough for Arle and Clorinde.
Dude if Columbina crumbs from the leaks forum look in any way promising for EITHER Columbina OR Sandrone...I'm gonna skip everything. Depends on what Arlecchino does, she's the only one where I'm like really tempted, I literally am at like 80 pity or something so I legit can't mess around lmfao. I have 30 pulls stocked, but I'm saving until at least Arlecchino's banner. Might just do ONE multi and then see what happens but not sure, she'd have to be super good at this point or really fun in interesting ways, my account is stacked with tons of good chars/weapons.
Me, who just pulls for every character regardless, for collection... as a F2P, I can clear everything since a long time, so I don't need any upgrades... only main 3 reasons remain: Personality, Fun to play, collection. The only regret i have is that I wasted 37 pulls: 10 on standard banner, 20 on weapon banner, 7 on blackcliff (not that much of a regret but ya, could have survived without it, didn't need it)
ok i have to disagree with what you said about itto building stacks so you can do a powerful attack or a combo is way better than just normal attacking over and over although both his normals and charge are cool it adds more depth to how you use a character like how with wanderer you dash to do a bit more damage or with heizou/navia you charge your skill to do more damage with wanderer i initially wanted something like 1full NA combo and the final hit makes him jump high so he can end it with a plunge which is kinda what rizzly ended up to be so i kinda got disappointed that he's just normal attack spam like most characters the other character i want to talk about is childe yelan C6 is literally the childe boss first phase so idk why they didn't give him a constellation or a passive to infuse his bow stance normal attacks with hydro and don't even get me started on the cooldown its just so bad and so limiting its simply is just not fun to play around it first ayato had better uptime and now we have neuvilette who made both kinda irrelevant to say the least also hell yeah columbina gang
I literally never used her after getting wandy. tbh after getting wandy you just cant use any other dps in usual game exploration or daily gameplay. All other dps feel so slow
I think we are similar of not regretting pulling for Baizuh; for Cyno, and not being Cyno stronger that own Hu Taos because of thier very high investment compared to own Cynos, hahahahahaha. ❤️
I pull for every character regardless but if u have to list some that i don't use or dont mind not having, For me it has to be Ayato,Raiden,Yoimiya,Ganyu. Ayato is pretty obvious why. Raiden,I dont really see a use for her when kuki exists. Yoimiya, Lyney was the last nail in that coffin. Ganyu, Boring af. Id rather play dehya and kill the enemy in 10 rotations than play ganyu.
As an C2 Ayato main myself i can definetly say he's the most lacking hydro 5* in the game. Like most people, i only pulled him bcs he was so braindead to play and could slot in any team i wanted (also bcs dollar store Vergil). Unlike most ppl i didn't bench him after getting Neuv, i still use him with Furina Yelan monohydro quite often
Yeah unfortunately Neuvi just powercreeps the shit out of Ayato because anything Ayato can do, Neuvi can do better...you can run any hydro based team with Neuvi and he's on field as a gigantic applicator that gets more damage for varied teams.

While I don’t have him, I do agree with ayato. I really appreciate his jack of all trades quickswap playstyle but his numbers are way too low to even justify pulling him. It is unfortunate tho
Personally, I find the concept of regret pulls a bit hard to understand. I don't know if it's just me enjoying many playstyles, but I've pulled for 14 limited characters between 2.5 and now with 9 of them being on field DPSes and only one being C1 by accident (and it's not even a good con, it's Childe lol) and the only one I can come close to regreting is Ayaka. Thing is, I forgoed playing her in a freeze team to instead be in a boss team, and so even then I found a way to play her that was both fun and effective. And I usually find a way to play all of them within a given week, too, so no one's fully benched or anything. Add that with the fact I only really pull characters I like in personality or story, and it would be hard to say there was any regret. That said, I'm sorry there were characters you and anyone else regret. Maybe the first advice people should tell new players is to explore playstyles before rolling on any character banner so that they know exactly what's up their alley lol.
Raiden generates power while attacking for off field party members 🤨
Not all of them are exactly bad if you build them right with good memory on how to play them despite the disadvantages it will work out depends on your skill
The character i regret pulling is Hu tao. Until now i didn't use her even i have Xingqui, Yelan, Zhongli and Furina maybe because i don't like HP manipulation in Hu tao compare to Neuvillette or Wriothesley (Hu Tao Heal was on Ultimate). My hu tao bench almost 2 ½ years. Yeah i know hu tao is good but not all people like her play style.
I think we can all agree ayato is a big regret.
unfortunately
@@GxGNoir I will dispatch of you in 8 rotations
Yeah like deadass. His damage is just too bad. I have a alt acc where I worked on him and Eula for over a year. Ayato still peaking at 20k dmg per slash with Bennet circle and harbinger of dawn. Eula still only hitting for at most 200k with fking Lisa (TTDS) and Bennet.

this sentence aint sentencing
The 4.5 banners are chiori, itto, neuvillte, and kazuha there also is gonna be a limited banner apparently? With albedo on it so far so I’m gonna skip all of 4.5 and save for the knave in 4.6
eh an albedo enjoyer, I also got him very early on he was just a great slot in whenever I just want him, mainly because my old teams were razor xiangling overload... so no vaporise or anything to have messed up.
rip alrechinno opinion, I enjoyed her, evil for entertainment characters are the ones that's boring to me. I only enjoy the classic disney villains, because they die, so I can leave them behind. I like wanderer (or scara to be exact) because he's both
I regret burst mode characters... itto, xiao, honestly probably cyno if I had gotten him but I fell short on primos. They are strong and fun when I use them because I built them, but I never used them outside of abyss because of energy.... I don't regret eula because I can use her for explo, domains and, now with furina, abyss
For me, I don't have any character that I regretted. At most, the character remains on the reserve bench. I regret situations, like the time I skipped Baizhu in his first banner because I think his look is horrible, even though everyone said he was excellent for Cyno.
You got a nice account.
Childe was my first limited 5* too. Didn't want him, was trying for Rosaria when she was a new 4* and pulled both in my first 10 pull. I've used him just to try him but I don't like him at all. So he's permanently benched for me.
I regret Nahida. I didn’t want to invest many Primogems for the Dendro element. Nahida is the only 5 star I got for it, and my Dendro teams are just bad compared to my most invested teams.
I sort of regretted Itto and Albedo. I always found them to be rather weak, and I hate how Itto is burst reliant. However, Furina C6 made me enjoy their Geo team a lot more. Simple and effective team, with Furina carrying it.
I rarely use Ganyu (my first 5 star character) and Ayaka, because I have more efficient characters now, but I wouldn’t say I regret them. Ayaka is one of my favourite characters. Sometimes I have fun with Ganyu in events, and I like archers. I used both characters a lot in the past.
Childe is also one of my favourite characters. He was also by far my most used character before getting Wanderer. I even slowly saved for his C4, just for fun. Now I almost abandoned him. However, I don’t regret getting him.
Give it some time with Nahida. She's cracked. She legit makes Dendro teams into the powerhouses that they are. Bloom with Nilou and no Nahida is fine, but Nahida supercharges it. Hyperbloom without Nahida is fine, but again, she super charges it...Burgeon? Same thing. Her personal DPS is actually GOATed. Just give it a while to gear up your other units and you'll be fine. I use her with Yae and it's actually comical how ridiculously AFK it is. It's absurdly strong in like EVERY situation that isn't legit hard countered by matchups and even then, I can just mix in Furina for quickbloom and destroy w/e it is. There's very, very little that can stand up to Yae Aggravate with Nahida C2. It's kind of disgusting.
Nahida is good. It is just that I didn’t want to invest much in teams with Dendro reactions. I didn’t get Nilou, Alhaitham, Cyno, Baizhu, Yae, etc. I don’t have Raiden, Shinobu, Kirara and others.
I got Nahida C0, Wanderer C1 and none else until Fontaine.
I regret getting Ganyu.
Tbh every other dps is useless for me since I only use wanderer during gameplay

@@GxGNoir true
Tldr:
I regret pulling Ayato, Ayaka, Xiao, Itto, Neuvillette, Eula and Yoimiya the most; all of them simply due to not being fun to play for me in the long run in one way or another.
In more detail about all of them:
Ayato is a character I prefer to watch other people play instead of me playing him. His animations are really cool, but mechanically, he's just unsatisfying to play due to only needing to hold left click and him not being able to move while attacking.
Ayaka's main issue is that (at least what feels like) 90% of her dmg is in her burst with a 20s long cooldown, so when you don't have burst up, it feels like she does nothing in comparison and when you have it, it's just 1 button press to do that 90% of dmg, which I just find unsatisfying.
Xiao was fun to play... for about a week or two. Tbh, if his skill could just generate particles during his burst (I guess with an internal cooldown to not make C6 broken), he probably would've been much more fun to play for me. Even if using skill during burst pre-C6 still wouldn't necessarily be optimal, at least it would break the monotony of plunging and provide more mobility. As is, I just feel punished for using skill during burst because I either need more ER or spend more time batterying.
Itto has both the claymore normal attacks which feel slow and clunky to me in general and then when he builds stacks, it's just hold left click and game does everything for you which is always boring to me.
Neuvillette is basically just a bit better Ayato/Itto as he's at least able to move and aim while charged attacking; still kinda boring to me due to the 'just holding charged attack' gameplay.
Eula is both Physical and on-field claymore, 2 things I don't really like, even though I like her a lot outside of gameplay. (Side note: why are all "dedicated" on-field Physical dps and most on-field Geo dps characters claymores? Even with the whole "they are neglected in other ways", I would probably like both "elements" much more if we just had more options in terms of the weapon type for a dedicated on-field dps)
Yoimiya is probably my favorite out of these; the only thing I wish is that she wasn't so shield reliant, especially in Vape teams. As is, she is kinda boring with a shield and often cringe to play without a shield.
The key difference that makes Yoimiya not as satisfying to me and Wanderer one of my absolute favorite characters in terms of fun is his mobility and not losing a lot of dmg every time he dodges (at least with A4) making him still risky, but much more manageable if you play without a shield, which is exactly the balance I'm looking for.
Only character I really regret getting is Itto. What I really wanted was Gorou. I do not remember how I even got Albedo but it was probably also for the 4 stars.
Childe for me was critically important for clearing Spiral Abyss early on because his team could clear anything and it freed up Xingqiu for my Dilic and later Hu Tau. Once I had Hu Tao vape and Childe International the game became very easy.
I think I don't "regret" any characters, but I've just kind of moved on from some. The main issue that I have now is not taking characters to too many constellation upgrades. like C6 Nahida, C6 yelan would just delete so much, same with Yae C6, she's just absurd.
I feel sad for Ayato, nonetheless he's still one of my favourites.
I regret Ayaka. Her freeze comp feels bad without her luxury all 5 star team and signature weapon, even then freeze isn’t even that good anymore and is pretty boring. Haven’t used her in almost a year.
I regret Rizzly. My only Fontaine dps but he was the only one to not turn out cracked + he depends on Bennett which is already contested for me (freeze is trash)
yeah his melt team with bennett furina xl is strong but circle impact on a melee unit is...
It's the thing that I'm terrified with Arlecchino. With Chevreuse, I fear that she's going to be Overload based and if nothing is done for Overload's knockback...like if she isn't given a Nilou passive to nullfy it or teleport to mobs like Rosaria on steroids it's going to be a HARD SKIP for me and for Columbina I go or Sandrone. @@GxGNoir
Wryo C0, Furina c0, XL, Beny is incredibly strong team. no 5 star weapons.
Wryo, Furina, Kazuha, Charlotte is another if you need grouping.
you can play even Wryo/Nahi/Kuki/hydro and he is very good onfielder.
If you have him at C1 with his signature he can solo abyss.
Hello, Noir! My one of regretted characters is Ayaka. I pulled for her because of how people praise her, and says that she’s the best DPS in the game, even after the release of Sumeru Characters like Wanderer, Cyno, and Al-Haitham, even if you played her in extreme Cheap team, like: Xingqiu, Sucrose, and Diona; with F2P weapon, in that time; I convinced that she’s very good by the insane amount of people who praise her, and laughing every time to anyone who says that she’s on par with Ganyu, or Hu Tao is better than her, then I pulled for her in 3.5, and I'm insanely regret pulling for her. I found that she’s not good without Mona, and Shenhe with Kokomi, and I have none of them, and the main thing that made me regret pulling for her is that because I got her; I was unable to get Al-Haitham; which's my 4th favourited character, which's a very big thing to me, and I love him really a lot, and farmed for him to max, and triple crown, and you know what kind of liking I'm talking about when talking about giving the character triple crown, and I was unable to get him because of Ayaka… It’s true that I was able to kill the Wenut that came in 3.5 Spiral Abyss; with Sac sword R5, and with Xingqiu, Diona, and Kazuha, but it’s mainly because I cleared the first chamber with Hu Tao; extremely fast. So yeas I regret pulling for her…
Personally for me, Ganyu and Raiden are my only regrets.
Ganyu is kind of dull, and building around her until recently felt shallow and unsatisfying, and I just prefer Ayaka (not by a whole lot but shes more enjoyable for me by a bit), and am definitely looking forward to Wriosthley when he reruns because his fighting style is very awesome (seriously, we need more fist fighting/monk type characters). As for Raiden, something about her never quite clicked for me, and it doesn't help that I'm not a fan of how her character was portrayed or how she conducts herself in general, with the final nail in the coffin for her being how even Kujo Sara C6 doesn't feel particularly good to play with how short her buff is for Raiden or especially other Electro characters (Yae can make it work spectacularly but outside of the big numbers she feels pretty bad to have a spot as your buffer).
My favorite pulls were Klee (the first character I saw of this game pre-release that made me want to play in the first place, and she's so adorable! I still play her mono-pyro teams on occasion), Hu Tao (my favorite character in the game design-wise and personality-wise of the females, her strength is just a nice little cherry ontop), and Nilou (very pretty and elegant character while having some great vertical investment for some ludicrously huge AoE damage with other characters I enjoy that don't get a lot of time to shine for most teams).
Interesting that I hate Ganyu's style for CAs but love Lyney, I think it's because you can set up a huge nuke with Lyney, like his CAs aren't the ONLY THING that he does, and you can run him with mono pyro, overload, or straight up as a vape carry if you really wanted to, and make it work, though he does best in mono pyro (or with Chev). I think he's in the middle of the CA dps, Tighnari is the fastest, quick swap based, Lyney is somewhere in the middle, and Ganyu is the slow af CA user.
That, and Lyney is funny/based and Ganyu is just boring.
I regret ayato but it is 100% my own fault. I pulled for him because I thought his character was cool despite that after trying him in the trial I knew I didn’t like his play style.
I don't have many, but the character I regret the most is definitely Ganyu.
Character I regret skipping the most is Kazuha. That was rough...
Character I'm glad I pulled the most was Ayaka. She was a massive power-spike for me.
Most anticipated character pull... Murata. I haven't pulled since the beginning of Sumeru (didn't care for Dendro) because I'm expecting this unit to be a-freakin-mazing.
Inn terms of the characters I regret:
Itto: I agree with what you said not as fun as he looked, especially bc i still don't have c6 gorou. i do want to try him with c6 gorou though
Klee: Knew she was bad when i pulled in 1.6 but didn't care, now i care she really just doesn't feel good.
kokomi: honestly with furina's release i don't really care about having her in freeze teams anymore. mono hydro with furina is fun and shes always my pick for nilou bloom but i could go without her
alhaitham: idk i thought he looked kinda fun, he really just isn't that fun at all.
ganyu: my first pull and i thought she was op at first. now her freeze teams just feel worse than ayaka and her melt teams feel horrible
zhongli: idk how i feel abt him honestly, he kind of just makes the game more boring.
honorable mention to childe who i also have benched however im inlove with him so i have no regrets
Clorinde can be worse than Dehya and I am still going to C6R1 her. I have already filed my marriage registration with Clorinde at my local city hall. All I need is for Hoyoverse to release her and I am a married man. (Jk, I am not that insane. Yet.)
Based
Leaks say that she'll be overload based, or electrocharged based, and Siggewinne will be electrocharged support kind of like what Chev does for overload. Still a LONG time until then so eveerything can change or be bullshit so it's w/e.
My most regreted pulls are Ayaka (hate when her burst misses the target), and Zhongli (I find his shield a bit overkill for my liking). Other than that, no regrets (including Ayato)
Same…. I honestly will no longer pull for characters other than archons and dragons. And Varka and Dain.
I only have 3 five stars navia, furina, c1 mona. Although i haven't built mona i do like her and will build her when i have 36 starred the abyss, this abyss i got 31 stars(thanks to Navia and furina on different side)
Only regret i have is getting Cyno, I started playing late 3.0... if i waited just a few more weeks and I could've gotten Nilou, which till today I still dont have and I dont see myself getting her in her rerun cuz I wont have enough for Arle and Clorinde.
Dude if Columbina crumbs from the leaks forum look in any way promising for EITHER Columbina OR Sandrone...I'm gonna skip everything. Depends on what Arlecchino does, she's the only one where I'm like really tempted, I literally am at like 80 pity or something so I legit can't mess around lmfao. I have 30 pulls stocked, but I'm saving until at least Arlecchino's banner. Might just do ONE multi and then see what happens but not sure, she'd have to be super good at this point or really fun in interesting ways, my account is stacked with tons of good chars/weapons.
Does your Wanderer out-dps your Hu tao in Single target ?
Most of the time yes
@@GxGNoir Oh, when does Hu tao out-dps him?
hydro tulpa@@ym7402
Do you not have neuvi?
I do not
Me, who just pulls for every character regardless, for collection... as a F2P, I can clear everything since a long time, so I don't need any upgrades... only main 3 reasons remain: Personality, Fun to play, collection.
The only regret i have is that I wasted 37 pulls: 10 on standard banner, 20 on weapon banner, 7 on blackcliff (not that much of a regret but ya, could have survived without it, didn't need it)
ok i have to disagree with what you said about itto
building stacks so you can do a powerful attack or a combo is way better than just normal attacking over and over although both his normals and charge are cool
it adds more depth to how you use a character like how with wanderer you dash to do a bit more damage or with heizou/navia you charge your skill to do more damage
with wanderer i initially wanted something like 1full NA combo and the final hit makes him jump high so he can end it with a plunge which is kinda what rizzly ended up to be so i kinda got disappointed that he's just normal attack spam like most characters
the other character i want to talk about is childe
yelan C6 is literally the childe boss first phase so idk why they didn't give him a constellation or a passive to infuse his bow stance normal attacks with hydro
and don't even get me started on the cooldown its just so bad and so limiting its simply is just not fun to play around it
first ayato had better uptime and now we have neuvilette who made both kinda irrelevant to say the least
also hell yeah columbina gang
I regret Ganyu, havent used her in a year
She fell off so hard
I literally never used her after getting wandy. tbh after getting wandy you just cant use any other dps in usual game exploration or daily gameplay. All other dps feel so slow
ITTO WITH 1985 DEF AND 177 EM SAYS EVERYTHING 💀
He's not geared because I don't use him why would I gear a character I'm not using?
I think we are similar of not regretting pulling for Baizuh; for Cyno, and not being Cyno stronger that own Hu Taos because of thier very high investment compared to own Cynos, hahahahahaha. ❤️
I pull for every character regardless but if u have to list some that i don't use or dont mind not having,
For me it has to be Ayato,Raiden,Yoimiya,Ganyu.
Ayato is pretty obvious why. Raiden,I dont really see a use for her when kuki exists. Yoimiya, Lyney was the last nail in that coffin. Ganyu, Boring af. Id rather play dehya and kill the enemy in 10 rotations than play ganyu.
Baited...but in the best way possible lol.
Clarification: I was expecting a rant, but guy has some good/solid reasons for them.
