The MOST Progress We've Ever Made [Genshin Impact Swords Only]
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 гру 2022
- Swords Only in Genshin Impact can be quite challenging at times. However, as the self-proclaimed master of "Weapon" Only challenges in this game, I am able to best any obstacle (probably).
Clearing Spiral Abyss is one of the main goals of any account... For these Weapon Only challenges, it might even be the final goal. We've gone so long without being able to clear Floor 12, so I decided to do a ton of farming, and try to change that.
HoYoVerse put out a tweet saying "Polearm Impact"... So I decided to take it upon myself to make a new account, but only use characters who wield a sword because absolutely nobody asked me to.

First off, this video was a couple hours late only because I may have fallen down the anime rabbit hole again...
Second, you don't need to keep asking "WhEn WiLl yoU puLl foR sCarAmoUchE oN SpeLls OnlY???" The more I see it asked, the more I want to skip him out of spite 😈
If / when I pull for him, you'll know because it'll literally be the video's title & thumbnail.
when scara pull pls
based
Bro chill no need to be so passive-aggressive lmao
awesome
Skipping him out of spite would make your spellsonly account a little more sad BUT it would be very funny so I support it either way
The ruin guard falling montage was amazing💀💀
ayaka causing more distruction than klee:
Came into comments with the same sentence on my tongue 😅😂
Yeah is was so cool idk why though
then the last one just creates an earthquake
Yes
6:43
"Because she can just apply cryo to her normal attacks and I think that's the only character who can"
Poor Chongyun :(
He also relies on his elemental skill though, so the long cooldown thing effects his cryo application
swords only XD
@@poisonivy5034 He mentioned a cryo catalyst a second after, so he meant cryo characters in general
@@_fire_3647 he was referring to his other series catalysts only
@@omnean8965 nah he was just talking in general
I highly recommend using Favonius sword on Lumine because its passive is amazing for energy generation and has a high ER substat. Also, EM on Lumine isn't important in hyperbloom because she won't be be triggering the reaction. In general, having really high ER on dendro Lumine is much more important than having high EM.
Exactly! Favge is always the answer
very true, especially since i saw he has two, so even if he didnt want to give up laylas he coul still give one to luminr
Zajef is proud of you
And also wrong set, he should use gilded dreams!
@@quackquack7404 not really, why would he use gilded on her? If kuki is is triggering the hyperblooms then yes gilded and triple em for sure but you need a deepwood on the team and since lumine is never the trigger pretty much, em isn't really a good idea
These farming montages are soo satisfying!! Thank you for putting the extra effort in for these
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
17:39 actually, I’m pretty sure that corrosion can kill you, but only a character that is on field, it will just bring the other party members down to 15%
The scary thing is when your active character dies. Whoever comes out next is not far along. Since it still ticks
True
Can’t lie if I was attempting a weapon only challenge my builds wouldn’t be broken but my controller would be after all the times I’d rage.
As a mobile player, with a bow's only. I feel you.
one good team you can use for abyss is Kazuha, Keqing, Dendro travaler and kuki. Before Nahida's release that was one of my favorite teams comps, and the fact that they're all sword users it's perfect for this account
edit: a sac sword on lumine works perfectly
that's similar to my abyss team (kazuha, kuki, tighnari, xinqiu/yelan)
my favorite hyperbloom comp
Sac sword is better on xingqiu, fav sword is good on mc
Same team but instead of fake cat girl I use Cyno.
@@acidrain8760 who said we cant use multiple sac swords?
@@Dyslexicx refinements is most of the time better than multiple of the same weapons
The ruin guard falling was the most satisfying thing I’ve seen in a loooong time…
“I think the only character that can apply cryo to their normal attacks is ayaka”
Chongyun:
It's swords and spells only he can't use chongyun
@@SutaFokusu he literally said "until we get a cryo catalyst" wtf do you mean
@@vesperious they said "it's swords and spells"
@@SutaFokusu ok?? That doesn’t mean he isn’t allowed to say that chongyun can infuse cryo to normal attacks
@@g1rlfromn0wh3r3 BRO HES LITERALLY SAYING THAT ITS SWORD AND SPELLS ONLY, HE DIDNT MENTION ALL CRYO CHARS IN GENERAL😭😭
The way the ruin guards just flopped to the floor was so satisfying
Probably the best way to distribute the characters is an Aggravate team and a freeze team, although freeze is at its best potential when using blizzard strayer. I'd say go with Keqing, Albedo, Lumine and Kazuha for aggravate (If you are more careful with the rotations you can change Albedo for Bennet or even Kuki for healing, but keep in mind that Albedo's burst is actually useful for this team bc of the EM buff), and freeze with Ayaka, Kaeya, Xingqiu and Layla. You can change Layla for Ayato once you get him but at the cost of defense, which isn't really needed in a freeze team
he could also change kaeya with ayato since ayaka and layla combined should have enough cryo application and ayatos burst will be useful for when xingqius burst isnt up, plus he gets to keep his shelder.
Kuki hyperbloom would be better than aggravate
@@aloha5461 i think that would be the case if nahida was the dendro app, but since it's DMC and they can't apply that much dendro this team falls off a lot
I was gonna do homework but not any more 🙃
Same
You should focus on your homework, it'll help you have a better future
Have nice day or night :D
5:35 don’t know about anyone else but I’m definitely not tired of the montages, they just tickle my brain, so satisfying
May the Wanderer come home early when you pull for him on spellsonly!
the ruin gaurds falling was so calming i hope no more ancient khaenrian artifacts dont come killing you anytime soon!
for the level up books i suggest teapot, you can get 20 purple books and 100 white ones every 3 days 😭 I have like 900 purple books mostly from tubby and the rest from quests
i cant remember the last time i did a blue leyline thing
LIFE SAVER thank you
How do you get so much realm currency?? D:
yes i farmed teapot for this specific reason 😭
This floor 12 was brutal. I had to do wolves with xiao.
And thunder bird with raiden
fr I don't even want to do mine when i saw the enemy teams
@@ChibiDaGamer I got 35 after months of 36 starring
lmao same
I brought Raiden national second half for the second chamber butthe bird... had to add Raiden into rotation just in order to get the energy for others
The wolves are actually weaker to electro so you might be better of swaping the teams
2:08 that montage of ruin guards just falling.. this is exactly why I love your videos
Cant wait for the scara pulls on spells only!💀
And your teams are pretty good!
lumine best girl
@@Horridtothecore 100%
@@idkuhhhhhhhhhI wish people used her more, she's pretty op as dendro too
@@Horridtothecore well i CANNOT use her

I love the montages! Finding cute little ways to incorporate farming into the video is amazing!
3:23 i’m ashamed you didn’t call the ganoderma dermatologists
This abyss rotation has been pure pain. (And I only do Abyss on my main.) It's nice to see you making progress building your characters. My swords account has only five characters so far, but now that it's high enough AR for artifacts, that still feels like too many to build...
And please keep up the collection montages! I love the way you edit them!
i love how you set the nilotpala lotus collection montage in time with the music... truly next-level cinematography... you, sir, are an auteur
The problem with Xingqiu in your proposed quickbloom team is that he has too much hydro application. He'll hog all the dendro. So for that reason, there is no reason to have both Keqing and Xingqiu on that team. And overall, you're probably better off with a hyperbloom team. Go with Albedo, Kaeya, or Layla in place of Keqing. Probably Albedo, except against the wolves, where you'll want Kaeya so you can freeze 'em.
Alternately, go aggravate on that side, with Kuki, Keqing, DMC, and Kazuha. It'll mess up your other team, though, since it can't really use Xingqiu to freeze enemies with Bennett in the mix.
And, of course, there's the third option, which is a 3 man team of DMC, Nilou, and Xingqiu.
I love the montages sm, appreciate the effort put in because it looks like pain to edit
I will never get tired of those farming montages, so satisfying 😍
Love the montages!! Especially with the synchronization of music🤩🤩
I suggest you replace Bennett with Nilou on the Ayaka team, even if she isnt well invested ( just for the hydro application). Just because enemies tend to move a lot, and might miss Ayaka's burst
Nilou's hydro application is decent, at the same time she can be low investment for the freeze team, she can be Intructor or Tiny Miracle set.
that tram would lose any healing in that case unfortunately
i understand the thought process but benny is just way too powerful to have him switched just for a little bit more of hydro app
the montages in this video at SO SATISFYING!!! PLEASE ADD MORE MONTAGES THEY ARE SO SO SO SO SO AMAZING
I just enjoy listening to you. Even tho it's just farming, its relaxing and you are super fun. You made my day, every Time you upload!
Considering the increased difficulty of this Spiral Abyss, that was a fairly nice run of it! Well done!
These montages are HILARIOUS
I love how the music was so chill when the guards were falling and at the last part *BIG THUD*
One of the best if not the best videos in the series
Good job😊
It's so awesome that you don't put boring stuff like collecting ascension materials as a long video but, as short awesome montages
Those teams look very good, also in Ayaka's team you could use Nilou as a hydro applier for permafrost, that could be cool
actually even though Nilou would be preferibly placed on bloom, she can work as a hydro enabler if needed so, only problem would be healer, but otherwise nilou can work in freeze, but with the teams it seems preferibly that xingqiu should pass to the other team
Just got Rosaria and beidou today watching you has given me motivation to play genshin again id go as far to say I’d become a UA-camr because of you I truly have to say thank you for being such a cool UA-cam Java 😌
I am so excitet. Javas Videos are the highlight of my week!
Really like the montage where the rythm on clicking suits the bgm, nice
Love the montage so satisfying!
JAVA TYSM I JUST CAME BACK HOME FROM SCHOOL 4 CLASSES EARLY CUZ I WAS FELLING SICK AND I'M COUGHTHING SO MUCH IT. HURTS BUT THIS HAS MADE MY DAD A LOT BETTER TYSM AGAIN
For your teams, i'd say an aggravate/quicken team with kuki, mc, keqing, and a whatever character. And for ayaka get 4 PC blizzard strayer, it's in strongbox and helps you so you don't need much crit rate, Ayaka, layla (for cryo resonance for 15% more crit rate), xingqiu (Hydro application for freeze), And another just whatever character(Preferably bennet for dmg increase and heals, have kazuha on 1st team). Thats 2 teams the only bad part is albedo being unutilised but on that account itto isn't a possibility so albedo is pretty much just shields but even then layla is way better than albedo in that category, plus helps with cryo resonance. Thats my take on your abyss teams at least. This was more general teams than this specific abyss. I have no idea if you'll read this and I wasted 10 mins of my life though lets be honest I'm watching a genshin impact content creator, it's obvious I have no life to go back to Lol. Edit: use fav sword on mc for er and more particles from the passive. Kazuha could also help with energy problems just a little bit. Not much due to dendro not reacting to anemo but you get particles there so more energy. Alhaithum is also coming soon (I think, I don't read leaks) so that may also help.
0:48 I had that issue a few days ago with fungi! I had to log out and log back in to fix it
Seeing that Java uploaded new vid saved my evening from boredom
With abyss you probably need to try it on day with buff that heals after doing Ultimate. But still great job. Its so intresting to see how you challange yourselfe :3
the montages are just _chefs kiss_
I live for your montages. :D
very satisfying video to watch 😁😁 so much progress
great editing, this spiral abyss F12 is the land of chonk so you really need fully built characters and stronger teams than what you are able to put together at the moment, seemed like you did as well could be expected given what you are working with right now
Gl on ur ayato and Alhaithem pulls I hope you get them ( ayato coming in 12 days from the 15th of dec and alhaithem coming in 3.4 )
Are you tired of this montage?
ME: NOO, i'm finding them pretty amazing, CONTINUE
Those montages were the bomb!
I love the montages!!!
14:18 “you might be a fungus, but you’re not a fungi.” LMAO JAVA YOUR JOKES ARE KILLING ME 😭
I love these upgrade videos
hi java! ive been sick with the flu for the first time in my life! you uploading made me feel a bit better!
Get well soon!
@@miaooooo11111 thanks!
The farming montages were pretty nice
When you said I don’t like the floors where there is a lot of little enemys but I like the floors where there is 2 big enemies it was the wisest words I have ever heard!!
I love the montages!
Man I love Ur content
İ have started watching you and im ngl ur voice is pretty relaxing
I love the way hes saying i hope u guys dont get bored with these montages but he himself is spending hours
My fav series
About the teams, Ayaka/Kaeya/Kazuha/Bennet is a good one, since Bennet helps both Ayaka and kaeya. For the other one, you can do something like Kuki/DendroMC/Layla/Xingqiu, since you can freeze and hyperbloom at the same time, but that needs a lvl90 kuki with some good EM for high damage (you can always substitute Layla for Keqing, but that means that you loose some hyperblooms from kuki). In case of any abyss that cryo doesn't work, you can use Keqing/Bennet/Kazuha/Flex slot (Layla or albedo)
You could look into crafting sapwood blade (if you haven't already) for lumine since it gives 30 er and buffs em to active character even from off field
good luck on future alhaitham pulls
I would recommend an Ayato/Xingqiu/DMC/Kuki Hyperbloom team and monocryo team with Ayaka/Kaeya/Layla/Kazuha. Tho I'm more sure with the first team, dmc only for dendo application so sac or fav sword are great, ayato and Xingqiu for dmg and kuki does hyperbloom/healing. Also mono cryo is viable since many enemies in abyss can't be frozen anyway. Love your vids, keep them up!
What Ayato??
I think these montages make these kinds of video plenty entertaining
I really love to see the progress on the acc, and as always: play as you find it more comfortable, but I would go with teams like these: Keqing, Lumine, Kuki, Xingqiu/Bennett and Ayaka, Kaeya, Layla/Xingqiu/Bennett, Kazuha. I was thinking of the healer issue, which I totally understand, but I believe until Jean will save you, nothing can fill that properly. Layla is not so great as a subdps (her dmg is lost on me, even though she has the Key of Khaj-Nisut), so Kaeya could fill the role better + he's better battery than Layla. As for everything else... Well, not much I could say, ig. Anyway, I am excited to see your next update and, who knows, maybe for SwordsOnly it will be my long awaited Kaeya special.
Cant wait to see your spell only next episode 😢
I love the cute little montages :)
damn those ruin guards fell with such grace and poise
That lotus collecting montage is satisfying
you know it’s a good day when JavaTheCup posts 🌟
This videos shows how I feel in this spiral abbys
Don't worry, this abyss was definitely worse than the previous one. About the teams why not try: Ayaka, Layla, Kazu and Xingqiu in the first one and in the second Keqing, Albedo, Lumine and Kuki? First one is basically freeze, so less damage taken so Xq heals should be enough. Second aggravate with shield from bedo is not that bad, at least I think so, hehe. Anyway great video as always, happy to waiting for another one! ^^
Your abyss going was actually nice, it’s just right now the devs have really satisfied the minmaxer community to make some more challenge
Hey Java I'm wondering if it wouldn't be an option to put sacrificial sword on Lumine too, I might be mistaken because i don't know how to identify the weapons for their icons only but I think you have two of those
Btw really love the series thank you for your hard work ❤️
I didnt know i'd enjoy watching someone farming
with the second team you have, you can put bennetts burst down and immediately burst with kazuha to infuse his swirls with pyro regardless of the enemies and what elements they have infused. Just a cool trick if you want to melt with ayaka.
What you have is exactly what I was gonna suggest lol
a recomendation for benny is to use the sumeru craftable sword if you have access to it since it has high base atk, er substat and a buffing passive if you ever run him in a dendro related comp
also favonius sword on lumine will almost completely solve all of your energy issues since lumine herself doesn't need em especially if you're running hyperbloom
for team suggestion i would say keqing, lumine, albedo and kuki for first half and ayaka, layla (or benny), xingqiu and kazuha for second
first of not tired of montages and secondly you know you can take breaks time to time
Java the cup always seem to amuse us on Genshin content
5:41 LMAOO the crocodile caught me off guard- the way he just yeet himself askjhsdkgj
Dendro in a hyperbloom team doesn't necessarily need em since it's the electro units em that counts. So if you use hyperbloom maybe go for a ER substat weapon (fav or sac) for her. I think... though what you did also works I suppose
Hey Java! For some teams I have a few ideas that might help
Ayaka, layla,kazu, and kuki
you can use ayaka for main dps layla for sub dps kazu to swirl/suck up the the enemies and kuki for heals
Second team
kequing, Bennett, xingqui, keaya
kequing for main dps, burst support, Bennett for heals/procking, xingqui and keaya for a freeze to keep the enemies frozen while attacking.
This might not be the best it’s just my opinion of what might work :D
Can't wait for sage man to come out so you can do your full bloom team on swords only
I would make an ayaka freeze comp, with xingqiu, ayaka, Layla and kazuha. Layla is a shield, and xingqiu heals a bit. And a dendro electro team, with keqing, shinobu, dendro traveler, and Bennett. You could possibly switch Bennett out for albedo, since shinobu is already a healer, but I would keep him, because he is an amazing buffer.
exactly what I was gonna suggest aswell
Hm I think Albedo would be better since dendro reactions need EM right?
@@_m0chiko yeah, maybe… but does it match the atk buff ? In terms of damage I mean.. both can work, and it really depends on how well his shinobu heals, or if he really needs a shield.
team ideas:
-ayaka w layla and xingqiu as a freeze team
-aggravate keqing with kuki& dendro mc
-bennett, kazuha with kaeya for melts, could add albedo for extra off field dps or with supporting artifact set or anyone really
last spot in all teams is optional just put whatever works best
This amazing... U should do another co-op one ...💜💜✨
The alligator about to jump you during the lotus montage LMAO
well the title's interesting so this gotta be good.
Literally all of the weapon only series’ are my favorite. Bows only, swords only, and catalysts.
(I understand there are more it I don’t watch those)
Firstly I just wanna say this was a really fun style video with the montage
Here are some of my team suggestions
1. Ayaka , Layla, kazuha , Bennett
(Use kazuha to swirl pyro and then melt with ayaka)
2. Ayaka , xingqui , Layla , kazuha
(Perma freeze + rain sword heal can + shield can be enough if there is no bleeding ..... May be not to this abyss)
3. Kequing, Dendro MC, Kazuha, Kuki
(Aggravate )
4. Kequing, Xingqui , kuki, kazuha
( Electro charge )
5. Kequing, Xingqiu , Bennett, kuki
( Modified national + electro charge )
6. Kequing, Dendro MC, albedo, kuki
( Aggravate + albedo em buff + the crystal shield can be of help)
........
7. May be in Future
Ayato , Dendro MC, Bennett, Kuki
( Hyperbloom team )
8. Ayato, Kequing, kuki, xingqui
( Electro charge plus double resonance of electro and hydro )
9. Ayato, Ayaka , Kazuha, (flex slot )
( Sibling + Inazuma squad might be fun not to forget it is also an perma freeze team)
P.S there are many possibilities but at the end of the day see which one you find fun ..... :)
Ayato , Dendro MC, Bennett, Kuki -- remove benny from there and u have hyperbloom xD switch him out for kazuha or another hydro unit since benny would mess up the reaction
you should invest in nilou, i use her with yae, traveler and some healer and she does really great! she helped me through abbys sm even tho she doesnt have the best artis. btw love this series im looking forward to another one!
You could switch Xingqiu and Kazuha for your two teams. Kazuha groups and buffs for your aggravate team while Xingqiu allows you to freeze w/ your Ayaka. With freeze immobilizing enemies, Layla’s shield, and Xingqiu’s minor healing & damage reduction you should be pretty good on defensive utility in case u feel like swapping out Bennet for another character.
