    I don't think Mavuika is the problem per se, I think she was always going to be a main dps as the archon of the nation of war. The real question is why despite knowing this, they still released so damn many pyro main dps units in the past already. Like they could've just made Arle or Lyney off-fielders instead and this whole problem wouldn't have existed.

      I mean, as the archon of the nation of war, she could have, instead, been a support.
      A war isnt won by a single individual but by an army, so someone who can strengthen the army would be more valued than what is just a strong fighter.
      That is half the reason why she was expected to be a sub-dps, would make sense thematically(and to replace the dominion of xiangling but we can leave that aside for now).

    She wouldn't be underwhelming If the pyro element didn't had 69 on-field DPS or her full strength/kit wasn't locked behind another premium 5* character or Constellation.

    Mavuika isn't a bad character but she is nothing unique as a support. The 4 pc scroll cannot be considered as mavuika's capability as even the pyro traveler can use that. So compared to recent archons like furina and nahida she doesn't bring anything unique to the table. As a support she on her own is just a B+ for me.

      This is also what I'm thinking. We have PMC and XL without spending potentially 150 wishes, too. Not to mention playing her as a support means we are wasting her core strength as a main dps, which is quite a bit stronger than other main dps she can support. So why switching to your main dps when she can deal more dmg being the on fielder 😂

    All I know is that this is the first time I'm not immediately pulling for the archon. She doesn't provide much new for me, and the supportive aspect can be done via Pyro MC (although worst, at least they are free). I'll wait to see how the community ends up utilizing her on whether I pull before her banner ends, or maybe even skipping to see if anything new happens s by the time she reruns.

      If the application lasted longer, there would be complications, mualani wouldnt be able to get a xilonen crystalize, wriothesley wouldnt be able to get a cryo swirl/cinder city etc..., because pyro is the most intrusive element it actually works out in her favor in many scenarios, only dpss with a long dps window suffer, but those are very few and far apart and you wouldnt use Mav with them anyway. There is no denying that she is very strong as an on field and off field, for example in Mualani teams she is like a 20% dps increase clorinde aswell, just take a look at a little tc, no point in being so arrogant about something you dont know alot about

This is only an issue for Melt teams with Xilonen. The only reason she's a "20% dps increase" in Mualani teams is because she enables faster rotations.

    And Nahida one... Girl that's like saying if you bring Raiden into a team, the team is based around Electro reactions. That's not a restriction
    7:30 And this is fair, she doesn't meet the requirements. Her kit should be focused more on supporting the teams that need off filed Pyro application, buffing base stats like how Bennett does. She doesn't do enough for an archon, just like how Ei, Zhongli and Venti don't do enough
    8:25 yes it is the case. Kinich and Mualani can use Pyro Traveler or Xiangling NO PROBLEM. And Chasca would way rather have Bennett because what Bennett gives her is more valuable.

      I don't think you understand english, or then you weren't listening to what he said. "Needing a healer is not the same as NEEDING A SPECIFIC CHARACTER FROM A SPECIFIC REGION 😭" whatever you said here is completely irrelevant. He said that you need a healer for Furina to gain fanfare points, otherwise you can't buff your team. He also said that Nahida needs a team that revolves around Dendro reactions, because she, specifically, buffs dendro reactions, like, ALOT. I don't know what Raiden had to do with that part, since she's purely a main DPS and one of the best batteries in the game. Also for the last part, you don't know about future Natlan characters yet, they may have excellent synergy with her. Pretty sure she'll work just fine with some, like Xilonen, maybe even Kinich depending on the teammates. I don't know if you were trying to be cool while writing this comment by "disagreeing with the youtuber" but you didn't make the cut. Also, why were you crying in the beginning of the comment?

  • @Meese12
    @Meese12 9 днів тому +7

    My biggest issue is that, compared to the other archons, mavuika is (probably) going to age like milk. When your main job in a team is to deal damage and you access that damage by using the new regional mechanic, you're going to fall out of use if either A) another pyro onfielder with more DPS comes out or B) you stop receiving new natlan supports. B is all but guaranteed to happen at the end of the 5.X cycle and A is looking likely to happen eventually with the direction the game is going in. Furina is a best in slot buffer for nearly every team, nahida is still hands-down the best dendro applier and has good damage to go along with it, and while Zhong and Venti dont perform as well as they used to, they are still each the best at what they do. Raiden is the closest comparison, but even she has better utility in her energy regen and burst dmg buffing, so even though she isn't doing a ton of dmg herself, she can still benefit your team by doing dmg. There is indeed flexibility in making Mav on off fielder or an on-fielder, but that is not at all unique to her (raiden, dehya, ganyu, and ayato can all be used as off-fielders) and most off-fielders can be made to function as decent on-fielders.
    In fact that may be a part of why she was designed as an off-fielder, because turning her into an on-fielder with c6 bennett would be insanely easy and potent and they couldn't sell the traditional "infusion at c6" style of cons.
    Edit: it's entirely possible that she remains the highest DPS on-fielder to retain her "archon status" and is balanced by having a limited amount of supports but, at least in my opinion, "highest dps" isnt a strong enough reason to pull her when abyss is clearable with units way worse than her.

      That said, I'm pulling for her knowing I have a dps Arlechinno and an off pyro support. Hopefully this gave you some insights as to why players are perplexed about her "this already exists" kit.

  • @namelessone6240
    @namelessone6240 7 днів тому +2

    My main problem for Mavuika is that I feel like apart from her damage I can pretty much replace her with traveler as a support.
    And I have no real incentive to want her as a main dps as I own Lyney and Arlechino and gaming and diluc and dehya and Xiangling and Bennet pretty much every pyro character.
    I believe as an archon she should have a sense of uniqueness to her. If she was mostly off field centered and only competed with Xiangling and dehya making her feel more important. And she can have 100% percent up time because if she is in wriothesly team she would likely be wearing cinder set to be off field and if she had golden troupe for pure damage you can alter your rotation to use Xilonen after her last application of pyro with wriothesly to make cryo crystallize. But then again I might just be an unhappy critic who just wants “overpowered” characters…
    Actually if Genshin allows up to save artifact sets to equip fully on characters i can forgive this…

    Mavuika not having full uptime on her skill is not a good thing.. you're just regurgitating another yt'er whose name you banned from being mentioned.
    It's actually a hinderance in every team EXCEPT Wrio / Xilonen.. which is why her C1 increases her skill uptime. So does C1 brick her kit? No, because this "upside" is not an upside at all. The low skill duration screws with so many buff uptimes because Mavuika has to be used right before the main dps.

    @KozyLore 9 днів тому +1

    I think you're putting to much credit to her off-field role. As a unit who NEEDS Natlan characters, she SHOULD work better with them. she cant work with Mualani in double Hydro, There is literally no reason to pull for her in Kinich teams when you already have Pyro MC, who does the exact same as her but for free. Then we have Wriothesley who doesn't work that well either since you want to run him with Furina, which Mavuika cant apply enough pyro for her to Vape OR Wriothesley to Melt, making it so she steals most of the reactions, same goes for Childe. Not to mention, this really doesn't bold well for characters IN THE FUTURE after Natlan. No night-soul bursts, means no Burst for Mavuika, meaning her teams will be limited entirely to those in Natlan. Making her long-term value practically non existent (which adds only further to her being a DPS) Also, why are we acting like Mavuika's lack of energy need is so much better than XL's Bennett battery when Mavuika ALSO needs a battery in Xilonen and Citlali.
    To say this is fine because Furina's also is limited to having a healer and Nahida is limited to Dendro teams also is a major stretch. Furina needing a GENERAL healer is in no way similar to Mavuika needing a SPECIFIC region's characters. Healers outnumber Natlan characters drastically and are ALWAYS going to be added on to, Natlan wont always get new night-soul triggers for them to be on the same level as a healer for Furina. This is what makes Furina such a good unit, her flexibility for future AND past characters. (and as well as her general support buffs)
    And saying Nahida is limited because of Dendro... Do I really have to say anything here? Dendro is one of the strongest elements in the game, Her 'limiting' her teams is nothing but providing universal support for her element and she does what no other character could do well until she released, which is Dendro app. She works that way, cause thats what her element needs. It'd be different if instead they made her just an EM support, she'd be worse overall because even if you give your teammates 250 EM, they cant really do anything without the dendro app.
    Mavuika doesn't add anything new to the table with her support mode, all she really has is mediocre pyro app and Cinder City (which once again, Pyro MC has as well.) She's just a waste of an archon in my opinion. And her DPS mode isn't different, just another Pyro DPS that will more than likely get power crept soon anyways.

    To me, Mavuika has 4 unique things going for her:
    -Not relying on energy means more offensive stats, so in reality, Mama is hitting like a SuperNova. The theory crafting calcs don't even account for the extra damage she'll be doing.
    -Highest burst damage, single-number-hit in the game .That means you don't miss out even if you only play her off-field + burst.
    -Guaranteed damage bonus buff at the START of Floor 1 in the Abyss. Speed Runners Dream.
    -With the Cinder City buff and 200 Fighting Spirit, she can give the active character a maximum of 90% Damage bonus. That's even Higher than Furina. True it decays very quickly as opposed to builds up quickly, but that's the essence of Pyro; all out attack from the jump.
    With these 4 things added to her off-field pyro application and damage, she's truly the best off-field and on-field Pyro unit in the game.

      -It means fail design because if she doesn't rely on Energy it means she won't synergize well with many past units or possibly future units that don't rely on night soul
      -Her damage per rotation is weaker than arle at C0 and only surpasses C2 arle at C2. Kind of P2W heavy to expect people to pull multiple copies to beat arle.
      -Damage buff is nice but not worth the pull. Sorry bennet exist.
      -200 fighting spirit can only be reached practically with her premium team which requires you to spend wishes on multiple 5 star natlan characters.

      -Not relying on energy does not mean she loses synergy with all older units, after all, she can still generate particles. If anything it may actually lead to a team damage increase, since you won't need Favonius weapons and ER to battery all 4 members
      -I'll admit, the Fighting Spirit mechanic definitely appears to be a money grab, but even at C0 she's still incredible. I don't know what calcs your using, but again, with proper investment, she gets more offensive stats than other characters (including Arlecchino): Her frontloaded damage is higher Arlecchino's, and if reacted, can match the damage output of most characters' rotations in a matter of seconds. She's effectively a burst DPS, with caviats.
      -Bennet boosts base attack, that is less universal than a character who offers damage bonus.
      -She starts out in abyss with 200 Fighting Spirit, so i don't know what you're talking about. Even with a rapid decay rate, because of her high multipliers, she will shred enemy waves faster than any than any other C0 character. True, in the second and third chamber of abyss floor 12, your damage bonus will be lower, but she will still be able to nuke and maintain roughly 60% damage bonus on average between normal attacks of the team and her kit generating bout 90 fighting Sprit. That alone is worth the pull value.
      -Lastly, no one can predict the future. Whose to say we won't get a Xbalanque, or the like who will make night soul mechanics universal. Xilonen already gives a free night soul burst.

      ​@@rendition55 -Yes it does since she relies on Fighting spirit and being an on-field DPS means that at least 2 characters on the team will need to be ones that cater towards her burst. aka likely natlan characters. She will not work with raiden and many of old characters since they can only contribute to her burst (her main source of damage) through NA which is slow as hell and not practical in actual end game content. Her pyro application is also poor and can be facilitated by PMC who is free and does an equally good enough job to her.
      -The calculations comparing C0,C1, C2 Mavuika against C0, C1, C2 Arle shows that mavuika losess to arle in both C0, C1 when it comes to team rotation damage by about 4-6k in damage. She only edges her out Arle at c2 and thats with her best teams which is heavily restricted.
      -Bennet is free and her damage bonus isn't really going to mean much or justify for pulling for her.
      -Yeah of course mihoyo is going to cater the next abyss to her and give her 200 fighting spirit in the first stage, they always tweek abyss in favor of the banner character to sell her. She is not going to shred enemies faster than arle. " True, in the second and third chamber of abyss floor 12, your damage bonus will be lower, " And there is the hook line from mihoyo to make her less godly and even more of a not pull.

      Its pretty common to predict the future base on past behavior. They heavily tied her to Natlan characters, please tell me how many releases from a past region does hoyo do every year after finishing that region? Very few characters if any. And its really not a smart move to buy a character now in hopes that someone unknown future character will help them. Just look at the kafka mains over at HSR who still waiting for a great DoT unit to actually make DoT competitive again with the other top teams.

      Needing to purchase another premium 5 star character in order for said unit to compete with past 5 star main dps is not good design. Its restrictive because it means that slot will always be there for that unit which means that you only really have 2 slots to play with.
      You don't know if its permanent. Mihoyo has an entire psyche team that knows how to manipulate players. They tend to cater abyss for whatever unit they are pulling for and quickly remove the abyss blessing when said unit is no longer making them a profit or they want to funnel people into purchasing their newest character. We saw this in how they try to nerf Neuvilette when they wanted to push people to pull for Mulani.
      Except not really. Of the natlan characters we have right now, she only synergizes well with her (xilonen and citali). Even if we get more characters in the future that work well with her, they are likely to d/c making new supports for her after we leave natlan. This is very important given that she relies on nightsoul burst of others to function as a character.
      "Mavuika does just fine. She's tied to the Cinder City set"
      Mavuika is not tied to cinder city. She is tied to codex which is why they made her weapon's crit rate so low because they believe everyone will be using codex to get that 40% crit rate bonus. Her cinder set does about the same as PMC who is a free unit.
      "Furina is tied to Marachaussee, the caveat being, anyone can manipulate their HP vs Night Soul. "
      Furina being tied to mara isn't bad. Its a great artifact and furina allows all units to enable its passively thanks to her kit; this is a good design. Mavuika does not allow units outside of natlan to use codex or cinder and is heavily restricted to natlan for subpar games she offers; bad design.

      @ i wasn’t only talking about the “kit” she is also an underwhelming archon in the story, she doesn’t actually hold any huge powers because of her powers being from the eternal fire, even if she is able to cut a hold through the fake sky to reveal the real world outside of the sky, i do not doubt that was not a “redemption” of how awful she is in both representation and power scaling, psychologically.
      Now what do we mean by psychologically? Sure, mavuika is a powerful archon, but she isn’t menacing, not once did i feel she had a power scaling above the traveler, the only time i felt this was the fight between mavuika and capitanio. But do you know who does? Raiden, now, i also do not like their direction that they went with her, but what I do like is how she was seen as dangerous, or at least, menacing, i wanted mavuika to be hard to go to, i wanted the traveler to go through obstacles, to show their honor, and legacy towards Natlan, but all we got was a “cool hot mommy motorcycle badass.”
      Lets not forget she is an HORRIBLE representative for the culture she was inspired by, and its not only the skin color, even her clothes horribly damaged what mavuika was supposed to be, i wanted mavuika to have a proper representation of her culture Maorī, but she failed, she is shown as a hot motorcycle driver, and not a dangerous but fair warrior, i wanted her to look at the traveler and say: “before you talk to me, show my your honor” and use the pilgrimage as a substitute for that instead of a yearly thing that not everyone cares about, I dont understand why they went for this direction, i did not care about her even if hoyoverse throws me a 10,000 interwined fate, i do not care.
      Natlan is an horrible nation only the first three characters were okay, but they also showed terrible representation.
