Remember people, a event weapon always could have a future user. For example there is a clam catalyst from an Enkanomia event that years later became the best free to play weapon for Xianyun.
@RieBec-K I can picture a future DPS, that generated his shields to have basically infinite poise (even if the shield is not that strong) . They could have a mechanic of everytime the shield breaks it explodes around them, and like Thoma they can refresh the shield. Sounds strong and practical in my point of view
for just requiring a shield, this weapon is crazy solid for f2p. Its passive is like the blacksword with a bit of CR which already has a lot of potential and value. There’s many shielders besides zhongli who are also good so i think it’s worth using it. Here’s some teams i think would work nicely with this weapon (the first character using the sword): - Clorinde, Fischl, Chevreuse, Thoma. - Clorinde, Fischl, Zhongli, Nahida. - Ayato, Furina, Layla, Jean. - Ayaka, Furina, Layla, Jean - Ayaka, Shenhe, Diona, Mona. For Keqing i still think her best f2p is still Lion’s Roar especially at R5 since her main source of damage is more her skill slash and her burst spam rather than her normal attacks and since her charge attacks use quite a bit of stamina. But again, its usable if there’s no other options! Big talk but hope it helps.
@@moltrescompanyCitlali as a shielder could work but its not the best, if you have kirara or even noelle they’re better suited in an aggravate team. But you can try Clorinde - Raiden - Citlali and any hydro applicator for taser-freeze team since it got a buff in this patch :)
I think overload Clorinde with Thoma will be a great pairing with this weapon, tho ofc this weapon seems to be made to compliment Citlali, so maybe it’s supposed to be an Ayato weapon based on Citlali’s current kit?
@ Ayato isn’t, and that’s who I was talking about. I was saying he’ll have synergy with her kit so if you don’t have his sig, this weapon will be an amazing f2p option
😭 Not Moga hyping up this weapon for it to only be usable on a few characters, I get it though I believe it's the first event weapon that gives crit, despite it being for normal and charged attacks it's still crit so that's big
bro this is like the first event weapon i leveled up during the event time with the 1.5times exp. It looks so good on clorinde too asthetically. Baizhu also gives a lot f shields. breaks easily but it keeps refreshing so gurantee good uptime during clorinde's short field time
Literally same, I love Ayato (because I don't really have any other character who can use this weapon), but I never got his signature, and now I have a pretty great 4 star weapon for him that can easily be r5 and I got it to lvl 80 in a day. My motivation to build Ayato had increased especially with Mavuika on the way 😍😍
Loving it on Keq in aggrevate with Kirara/Baizhu and I do play Ayayo in dendro teams nowadays so at least he can be doing lil bit more personal dmg while driving hyperbloom for example
I think for Clorinde this is a straight upgrade over even an R5 BP sword. Most Clorinde teams like having a shielder, and you lose only maybe 11% crit in total (which is fine, since Clorinde gets so much crit rate as is). You gain 55 base attack, and like half an attack goblet on top of that. It's pretty sweet.
This looks to be a pretty solid option for Keqing. An R5 Lions Roar looks to still be the ultimate 4 star option for aggravate but it's on par with or better than R5 Iron sting, so you can save yourself som billets if you stilll don't have a LR or better for your Keqing. Also it gets extra points for drip, the color matches her perfectly.
My current strongest team is Clorinde, Furina, Nahida, and Baizhu so this might be a very solid weapon for my Clorinde. Though would it be better than al’s signature which I currently have on her? Also it just looks way better on her, fashion is a huge thing for me so idk
Idk...it seems meh? Like i am not using anything that do not have crit rate/dmg substat, it just messes up the stats overall, and from what it looks the calamity of isshu isnt gonna be good with support characters aswell...
This weapon is really interesting, you don't need to equip on your DPS, it affects all characters, so really good on Layla, as she provides the shield, i was testing with chasca and i got a little more damage, i imagine at R5 this weapon will be really good for normal attack comps. Also.... Another Neuvillette buff 😂
I have an f2p chlorinde, I wanna test her current build with HoD vs this new weapon. But it might go to Ayato still not sure yet. I really wish it didn’t hv that needless shield limit, bec my Alhaitham has black sword. So this would’ve been perfect for my Ayato who has to share with Alhaitham.
i saw the crit stat and immediately leveled it up, ion even have ayaka, chlorine, ayato, or alhaithem 💀 look it dont matter i dont have a character for this weapon all that matters is that its a good one for future characters
What would you think about running it on Bennett in a Navia, Xilonen, and Xianling team. Because of the crystalize, Navia creates. Given that Bennett has enough ER
Both at R5 i’d say yes its better, +40% normal attack damage and 16%CR with high base attack and atk% substat is more valuable than pure atk% stack from Finale of the Deep. With Kirara, Baizhu, and C6 Lanyan Calamity of Eshu is better!
@@topherrobeson4446 You can use Kirara or Baizhu if you have with 4pc deepwood instead of Nahida, Or use Lanyan on 4pc viridecent if your kazuha doesn’t have his signature. (But given how Lanyan is rn, it’s better if you go with Kirara/Baizhu as shielders!)
you can use it if you have a decent set but its highly not recommended to farm that set since it isn’t that good. Using this weapon with a good shielder is enough
Yes but you basically missing a lot of good artifact sets(even though i have a good bolide) Though if you plan to use a shielder always for squishy characters(like catalyst or bow onfield) it should be a better option for comfort
i’d say at lvl90 R5 the event weapon gets ahead for sure, that is *if* you have a consistent shielder like zhongli or even a well built thoma or kirara. If you’re not playing Clorinde with a shield most of the time then fontaine craftable is better.
@@Lolamy she can move around quite fast to easily avoid most of those attack that knock you around, if that's still an issue then her c1 and 4 give interruptions resident The main benefit of her is to able to the strongest quicken team thank to her self sustain, if you not take advantage of that then she's not really much of an upgrade from Keqing :v
Yeah, is a good weapon, but there are not good sword users to use it, maybe in future but knowing how genshin works I wouldn’t even care about that, there just will not be any good sword user who can use this weapon jsjsjsjsjsk
WuWa win just for giving us freedom to decide how we want to play the quest. Playing HSR and Genshit events without skip feels like mouse and LMB simulator, hoyo devs are so anti playerbase that they won't even give us Skip or Artifact Loadout. Greedy and cynical af for forcing players through trash dialogue walls just to fill up their active player count by indirect s1*vry.
I am quite confused about the weapon's wording. I doesn't say "equipping character" or something like that, it just says "while characterS (plural)" Is it possible that the weapon can be given to a support and the buff still counts on the active character attacks?
will be good on Tighnari but in the same time Xilonen do not buff dendro but still i think with an electro a second dendro and xilonen to make a shield his attack will be crazy charged from a bow like Liney and Charged while covered in shield + crit rate boosted while using charge attack must still give him a good boost in attack damage.
Remember people, a event weapon always could have a future user. For example there is a clam catalyst from an Enkanomia event that years later became the best free to play weapon for Xianyun.
And festering being furina's best F2P weapon for damage. It hadn't seen full proper usage until Furina 🙂↔️
I still don't see this with the Shield thingy but yeah, could be.
After festering desire old players got ptsd for missing event weapons lol
Now new players will benefit a lot from this advice .

Big talk but hope it helps.
safe to say this is one of the best free event weapons i’ve seen for a while, definitely worth logging on and getting!
yeah baizhu works amazing with clorinde on this weapon because his refreshing shields match up with her field time completely
Some others teams that can be good are - Clorinde, kirara, fischl, nahida
Clorinde, xingqui, ororon beidou
Clorinde, kirara, kazuha and fischl
Would a Clorinde,Nahida,Raiden,Citlali team work?
@@moltrescompanyCitlali as a shielder could work but its not the best, if you have kirara or even noelle they’re better suited in an aggravate team. But you can try Clorinde - Raiden - Citlali and any hydro applicator for taser-freeze team since it got a buff in this patch :)

I'll be fr I forgot we even had a major event this patch LMAO
fr so did i, got chasca and ororom, leveled them and did the tribe stories and exploration...the event flew past my mind
Main dps Layla players going crazy rn
Laila can dps ?
😭 Not Moga hyping up this weapon for it to only be usable on a few characters, I get it though I believe it's the first event weapon that gives crit, despite it being for normal and charged attacks it's still crit so that's big
The first event weapon that gives crit is the first event weapon Festering Desire
The weapon passive gives buffs to every character on the team!
At full refinement the weapon gives 16% crit rate and 40% Bonus na ca DMG
you can clorinde - kirara - fischl - anemo your way through abyss EASILY with this sword.
bye bye finale of the deep.
...but the passive only boosts her NAs and not her skill hits? is it still stronger than finale?
It's visually appealing for electro characters :00

i liked clorinde so much i got her weap but ofcourse ill still get the event sword, might see user in the future.

I also use this sword with clorinde and sword colour matching her clothes 😅

3:08 that was from the fontaine-specific ousia-pneuma aligned attack, I don't think it counts as normal attack damage
Tell me why I max leveled this so fast for Citlali then remembered just now she’s a catalyst user…..
rip
Citlali gives shield so this weapon is gonna be good for anyone she buffs
citlali is a shielder so you can use her and the sword
lol as a Nigerian it’s so interesting seeing eshu (esu) which is like the Yoruba Loki or anansi
Bro really forgot that Chiori infuse
her weapon with geo when she's not swapped + she could crystalize her self so the weapon buff will active
This looks to be a pretty solid option for Keqing. An R5 Lions Roar looks to still be the ultimate 4 star option for aggravate but it's on par with or better than R5 Iron sting, so you can save yourself som billets if you stilll don't have a LR or better for your Keqing. Also it gets extra points for drip, the color matches her perfectly.
With Keqing. Lions roar or Harbinger of dawn is going to be the better options. Not worth using it on her. its really just for Clorinde
you forgot C6 Pyro Traveller
that's a leak
For Clorinde, I'd think baizhu would be even better than zhongli to enable aggravate and still has a shield.
baizhu isnt a shielder, but works ig. and also theres kirara so
for clorinde and keqing kirara and baizhu are both almost optimal anyways so yea they can use it very well
I manifest Capitano as a character that shields himself (or at least would like to be 😉), uses Normal and Charged Attacks to do Reverse Melt 😮
I’m gonna use it on my keqing probably on my Asia account since that one doesn’t have a lot of weapons
After one year playing Genshin, thanks to this video, I just realized how to refine event weapons. I goofed.
Right now, this definitely fits most with ayato
you crossed out lynette, but at C6 it's a good weapon for DPS lynette:)

I’m still looking to give the craftable catalyst from serpent spine to someone 😢
Matches Chlorinde's color scheme better than her signature
Pyro Traveler + Thoma

Geo ceo +c6benet +ayaka and xilonen ?
Does it compare to R5 Fontaine craftable for Chlorinde?
Kirara, Baizhu, or Lanyan might be a usable shield for aggravate

My bet it was for Ifa. Lol
So I put this weapon on my Ayato then.
Do someone knows if this one is better at R5 than Uraku Misugiri at R1 with xilonen on the team?For Clorinde*
