(2020/11/12): 1.1 Patch. XINGQIU + KEQING REMAINS UNHARMED. Good news for 4TF users (like myself). I am not sure what exactly they "fixed", but Keqing still gets the 4TF proc when paired with Xingqiu's Ult, which suggests that it's still HER triggering the reactions, with HER Elemental Mastery.
This is most informative Keqing guide in YT, because you talk about every possible build for her even as support. Your videos is a treasure for me as a Keqing main because most of your video cover everything about Keqing. Glad I found your channel soon, I am on AR38 and after watch your video now I know what should I do. Thanks for doing depth guide about her. Love your channel, and I hope you will talk more Keqing. Subbed.
Hows your keqing now? Im AR 28 with keqing and just trying to see what i can do at the moment to maximise her. Im thinking physical dmg bonus but i got lions roar weapon so im unsure.
IDK, man. Electro has the best Reactions and some very, very strong Sets. I think the only Element getting the shaft is Hydro (outside of burst Mona builds), all the others are pretty balanced. Though I believe Crimson Witch is better than Thundering Fury, in my opinion Lavawalker, Retracing Bolide and Thundersoother are all top tier and pretty much on par with each other (Retracing Bolide being slightly better overall). The Black Sword and Aquila Favonia are also some of the strongest weapons in the game, and there are no one hand pyro DPS Heroes that can take advantage of them as easily as KeQing can. While Wolf Gravestone is also very strong, Razor has just as good a time with it as Diluc does. Cryo also needs a dedicated DPS artifact set, but I believe we should be getting that soon enough. Hopefully Hydro will also get one.
@@LokiLiesGod the only element of shield electro can break well is water. every single slime except water is immnune to electro reaction while they still all take damage from pyro (except pyro slimes of course), and the only reaction from electro that does actual dmg is with water and even that is a DOT damage. half the dungeons give penalty to electro characters (damage on using electro), and the new boss tartaglia is immnune to water AND electro for some reason. the new region is electro themed, so probably a lot of the mobs are going to be electro-immnune. electro is pretty much the shittiest element in the game, and im kinda surprised keqing is still decent while shes weighed down by her shit element and weapon type lol
Not to mention that almost all Abyss floor are heavy pyro oriented(hello floor 11 and 12) and none of them really benefit electro,at least compare to other elements. There is literally 0 floor where I could say without electro it will be unbeatable,while other elements are useful everywhere
Great video. I appreciate that you're not wasting viewers' time with stupid introductions, giveaways, or begging for comments/subs. You put 13 min worth of content into a 13 min video.
Well regarding artifacts, in my opinion, 2 piece veridescent plus 2 piece gladiator would be the best build for venti if you run him as dps and not support.
@@erozephyr6858 true, but u have to manualy research it.. unlike Keqing over here, has a solid fanbase and a YT dedicated to her.. just saying, Shes so popular that even I would like to pull her :)
I follow you since the beginning of your adventure (now I subscribed to your channel I promise!) on genshin impact and it's a pleasure to watch a such main keqing which understands her character. Good work !
I'm running a Physical KeQing build, since I lucked out on getting Aquila Favonia and Qiqi. It's such a fun build, the damage is obnoxious and thanks to how broken Qiqi is after level 70, KeQing straight up does not die. Superconduct is a very powerful reaction, and the phys resist down combined with a 90%+ physical damage bonus from 2 piece bloodstained + Aquila means pretty much every boss in the game goes down on a single rotation, with the exception of the Wolf. It's also very powerful for Abyss, since you usually can't really depend on a single element for later floors. 2 piece Bloodstained + 2 piece Gladiator is just such a powerful combo for Physical KeQing, it's insane. I'll probably farm for a Thundersoother set after I hit AR 45 (since I'll have to farm for a set for FIschl), but I honestly can't see myself moving from this build, it's just really nice.
I wanted my team to be like this lol. I got KeQueen and the Aquila, I'm only missing Qiqi :3 I knew she would be perfect for KQ for a consistent superconduct debuff plus additional sustain. Kaeya is okay, it's just that his energy recharge is kinda low atm so I'm sorta jealous xD idgaf about the "Electro Keqing as the best lategame build" thing, I just want 'em big white numbers. xdddd
@@micahladaga1812 I honestly can't see how people think Electro is a better build late game. Later floors of Abyss (especially 9 and 11) have a bunch of Electro Slimes, so that's the majority of Electro KeQing's damage in the trash right out of the gate. The Superconduct debuff is also insanely strong for bosses, and a Thundersoother Phys KeQing will do very well on the AR45 Domains. I can see her AoE damage being slightly weaker if you can't group enemies for charge attack spams with her Phys build, but then again, with Overload blowing enemies away all the time, it's not like Electro KeQing has that much easier time dealing AoE damage outside her Q, unless you depend just on Electro-Charged, which isn't as strong as Overload. Maybe if you don't have Qiqi and/or Aquila, Electro might be better (though The Black Sword is good for both builds), but in an optimal setup, I really can't see how Electro out damages Phys KeQing if you can group the mobs with Venti/Sucrose.
@@prodby.tar0 Yeah, you can, but I would actually go for The Black Sword if you can. Then you can skip a crit rate helm and go for crit damage helm. The Black Sword also gives you healing, which can be incredibly helpful in Abyss.
@@LokiLiesGod I've never seen anyone say that electro is the better build to be honest. Most people I see say that it's the most fun one and that's why they are using it, not because they think it's stronger or anything
im using keqing mona right now with thundering fury, with the reaction, keqing E refresh before electric imbue gone from her sword, and ofc your Q will be refilled almost instant before coooldown reset
I used some of my fragile resins at ar 40 just to get 2 thundering fury artifacts, but every gladiator one thta I have, are pretty bad and unusable. I just use berserker for the time being. Also, I would love for a way to get 5 star martial artist, because it is my favorite set, and it deals pretty much the same dmg as my new build, with less stats.
Nice vid but I also recommend Hybrid build, electro and physical using 2 piece set glad/bloodstained and 2 piece set thundering fury with a nice substats : DD. +subs for u
Yeah but if your building electro on her. Your limiting her overall damage. Only decent electro set is the 1 that gives damage bonus if effected by electro. Outside that. If you build her electro she csnt be used everywhere. If you just focus physical or even just straight attack. You get more use out of her. That being said. End of the day you don't controll what you really get to use. You will use what drops the best. I have 18 gladiator pieces in a row with def% stat on them. Fk this pos game. Im still using blue items at ar 42 cause I can't get replacement drops with this bs resin system
@@YourLastWish what about not using her everywhere? I specialized her in the electro field and thats when I’ll use her, making her more versatile for every kind of enemy makes her less useful that specialized units of every of those kinds of enemies. The only reason you can make her that versatile is like AJ said in his vid and its if u dont have that much choice and have only mostly built her and the midsummer courtyard sets specifically
@@magi2162 well if your using keq that way your underselling her. Shes definitely best chr in game. She delivers 5x as many attacks as diluc. Numbers may be smaller but more over attacks. I use klee,Barbara, xiang, keq. I play klee as the chr that comes in for 10 seconds cause really thats all shes good for. Xiang just good for special and skill, Barbara also gives that water effect to keq when healing her so there's really no reason to not have keq out 85% the time. 10% klee 5 % other supports
@@YourLastWish I understand that your ignorance comes from a lack of experience/characters but you should stop being biased. First of all, I’m pretty sure you said that about Klee because you dont have a good dps catalyst so you use the widsith for its 10s effect and because you dont have that flexibility doesnt mean that the way you use someone due to that lack of flexibility means that that’s how it is and should be. Because this is completely false and Klee has probably the highest burst potential in the game with the likes of Mona or Beidou. That also applies to Keqing. Because she is your main dps and one of the best characters you have which makes you use her in every kind of content doesnt mean that she is the best at everything, late game content efficiency is about specializing a character in their domain, in what they’re good for to the utmost you can so that when confronted to a situation where they fit, they slap ass. You are probably not in the end game and have a lot to upgrade and build so using Keqing for everything does make sense for now but end game wise thats not the right move to play. Fighting in an electro dungeon with a specialized and built 4 set crimson witch pyro dps is way more efficient than using your keqing that you use for everything else but isnt specialized in anything. So yes specializing Keqing in as an electro dps is really the best way to build keqing for the endgame where every damage, artifact substats and free elemental reaction damage counts. Hopefully you learned something new
@@magi2162 nah cause I take everything into play. I dont care about highest burst. Its how usefull a chr is. Ex.. everyones mouth waters for diluc. Diluc is really just ok. He hits hard sure. Hes.slow as shit takes a ton of extra hit. And thats the same as klee. They take way to many hits with their toolkit. If you have realised that game hasn't changed since level 10 then your a fool. All your doing rinse repeating all your gear. Games never been hard and I continue to still solo most game with keq. Her speed keeps her safe while dishing out high damage. By making her electro your taking away her ability to toggle on her elemental attack and that is a unique benefit to her you are removing. Doesnt matter this game will die off fast. Already boring loging on nothing to do but few quest that take 15mins and burn risen another 20mins. No update will fix this money trap game. So not worth arguing. Games not even hard and most complain after 40 gets way harder. Doesnt feel any differnt to me
Your UA-cam channel for genshin impact is realy amazing, keqing is my Favorit Charakter. Thanks for this helpful artefacts guide. From me big thumbs up👍👍👍
Thank god for this I just hit ar 40 and my keqing lvl 80, I switch her between aquila and black sword lvl 70. I'm rebuilding her Cox just reached ar 40 so hope to get good artifacts and I'm clueless whats good for her anymore Edit: u deserve more subs too
This was amazing and well explained subbed by the way, But what can I put for the electro/physical build for the thundering fury and gladiator what can the 5th artifact be to complete the build
Not sure if this is accurate cause I read it on a random reddit comment, but when you activate noelles shield and switch to another character, the shields def up scales according to the character, not Noelle. This kinda makes it even worse cause we're not putting any defense on Keqing.
on the other hand it clearly says that Noelle's shield's damage absorption scales with her defense. There is no clear way to see how much damage the barrier can take since there is no gauge or number that shows it for us (unless you crack the app and read the code). Whether the reddit comment is right or wrong, mihoyo devs certainly do not want the shield to be like that, it just sounds counter intuitive.
@@daleryanaldover6545 can’t be entirely sure the devs don’t want it to be like that. It could very well be that that is how it’s intended to work but the tooltip got butchered by translation. They said they’d try to fix most leftover translation errors in 1.1
i think its because low def character took more damage than noelle (high def) so its feel like the shield depleted more quickly than noelle (the shield still have fix absorption DMG based on noelle Def)
Great video and the order of artifacts is accurate. Though some argue full soother is better but the slimes and all can't be impacted by electro which means you are loosing on the damage. Fury on the other hands regardless give u electro damage bonus which will scale with the ult and her stellar. With the 18 % upgrade in att from glad set so 2 piece fury n glad definitely better
Thank you for covering everything Keqing. I pulled her on my first roll and she’s been my baby ever since! Also I have 5 constellation Barbara, is no constellation Xingqiu still a better water support than her? Should I pull for more Xiangqiu?
Once you get Barbara to constellation 6, definitely use her over xingqiu until you eventually pull a qiqi. I would definitely roll for a chance to get Diona, the new ice healer tho. She applies frost for superconduct and heals.
I like Xingqiu over Barbara because he doesn't constantly apply wet to you, and he's much more offensive. I don't have a c5 barbara though so I can't really make a valid comparison..
@@mjbgamez5374 I want Diona, but now I'm not so sure I would use her with Keqing. Superconduct isn't going to be as useful for Electro Keqing. I don't have Xingqiu, and I'm not really keen on rolling on the Klee banner anymore, since I need to save for Diona.
Great video man, you've got a new subscriber ! At about 8 minutes in you talk about Keqing needing to be the character that causes the elemental reaction to get the 4 set Thundering Fury effect. Do you know if Barbara's WET effect would result in Keqing or Barbara triggering the reaction?
I hope you get her soon! I spent a few days rerolling just to get her. I got accounts with more 5* in the process but kept rerolling anyway and I have no regrets, she's so much more fun
Yep you got it all right, it even matches the Keqingmains subreddit and what has been talked there. Using (Electro) 4TS myself atm and might do the 2GR/2TF swap in the future, just need to see what 1.1 changes and does.
Thanks for this guides at least now i have an idea on the Pros and Cons of every artifacts for Physical and Electro build....I'll still go with 4 TF set i'll just equip Lion's Roar so i'll still have bonus effect and will have no problem with reactions.
Good content. I use a full gladiators set with Electro DMG bonus goblet on my Keqing. Been pretty successful so far at AR 43, she still one shots mobs and is my solid solo DPS in floor 9 to 11 in abyss.
Only bad thing about Glads is that the set bonus doesn't buff the charged attacks which is pretty core to Keqings attacks. But take what we can get for now right. I'm still using a Martial Artist 2 piece and a Beserker lol
Have you seen the new weapons in paimon shop? The blackcliff weapons? It has the same passive as the blood stained, I think that might be great if paired with 4 piece set and I think it'll be great in abyss and domains. as far as I know you can get 3 of those and can definitely be refined the thing is it can be bought by starglitter which kinda pain to have.
I am at ar 42 right now i the one thing i noticed is a physical build keqing works really great on all domains especially when farming the electro set. That domain kills you if you activate superconduct. Most if not all domains are reliant on a certain element in order to clear them quickly. So in order to dish out you need a neutral dps to clear them
I pulled Keqing as my first 5 star character and I'm so glad I found your channel and these guides for her as I plan on using her as my main dps char. Are Chongyun and Xiangling as Support DPS and Jean as Healer any good as a supporting team for her?
chongyun is awful imo, better off using kaeya. in chongyuns e field it converts keqings attacks to cryo damage which makes the superconduct null and void. you should find good success if you use kaeya well with keqing, use his e then switch to keqing, tap her E ONCE so you dont teleport then explode it with a charged attack, you are now diing physical damage against an enemy with a 40% debuff. look up a guide on kaeya/physical damage synergy works great for both keqing and razor.
@@xXmauroXxx 4 piece Gladiator's give no bonus to charged attacks, only to normal ones. If you are running 4 piece Gladiator's and spamming Charged Attack (which you should, since she has the best melee charged attack in the game), you might as well only use the 2 piece set and go for something else (like Bloodstained, if running Physical, or Thundering Fury, if running electro).
@@LokiLiesGod The reason why i'm using 4 parts it's because i play the game in spanish and it says that 4 gladiator's set increases your damage 35% with basic attacks and The Black Sword says " Increases DMG dealt by Normal and Charged Attacks by 20%" soo in my mind was like "it shoulda increase both attacks normal and charged"
@@xXmauroXxx Nope, 4 piece Gladiator's only increase Normal attacks. It's a great set for Razor/Chong, but for KeQing it's a very subpar set, since her biggest damage source is her charged attack.
as f2p really only iron sting comes to mind. you could try your luck on the current weapon banner, sacrificial sword is BiS for him, but it's unlikely you'd get it right away
Ah! thanks so much for this! I'm currently rocking a 4 set 5 star gladiator set with a 4 star cup with atk and all good sub stats. I was actually shocked at how versatile Keqing is. I never thought that I would go for a more physical dps build when I got her but it just kinda happened with what I rolled early on. It works well cause this way she can take on electro enemies as well. I think what makes her such a good character is that she can fill so many rolls on your team depending on how you build her. also totally feel you on the artifact grinding at AR 40, Definitely not worth it tbh.
I have keqing on the mines since 5 days ago that I got her, but I heard she is good, so I might as well try her out I guess. This guide was useful, thanks.
Hi thanks for yet another great Video! just a quick question, I have Xingqiu and TLDR after the patch for the bug fix, its safe to assume to switch to xingqiu first, cast his skill and then back to keqing for the electrocharged? this way it will always be Keqing who triggers it right?
Yes but that would only be the initial trigger (one time). The way it is now is that both electro and Hydro remain on the enemy (we don't know if that's going to stay), and whenever you reapply Hydro through Xingqiu's water swords every second, it still considers Keqing to be the trigger. If that changes, Thundering Fury will be hit very hard. Hope I addressed your concern haha
I dont know if anyone has recommended this but what I do for midsummer courtyard is that I just outheal the dmg that gets dealt to me just by using bennet. He heals insanely fast and is also a good pyro user so a good chara to invest in!
Thoughts on going 2/2 bloodstained, thundering fury with an electro cup? Still on the fence about investing for physical or electro when choosing my artifacts I know both can be strong.
Yeah but at that point with so much electro id just as well go full thundersoother, the point of bloodstained is for the large physical bonus and the 15% electro from t-fury is bolstered by the electro cup.
@@Valhaluke don't use bloodstained on keqing unless you're going full physical. Bloodstained's passive would not work when you're dealing electro most of the time.
I love your guide, it goes beyond stats and very deep into gameplay. I saw from Dreamy’s guide that he recommends Elemental Mastery for Sands of Eon/Hourglass, not Attack. What are your thoughts on that?
I saw only part of that discussion. At the core of it is the question: Do you want Keqing HERSELF as ONE unit to deal great damage? Or as a TEAM in combination with other units through elemental reactions? In my opinion EM on a main dps such as Keqing is a trap, but to be honest I haven't tried out any EM builds myself. What I do know is that Dreamy's initial argument (not sure if he still holds on to that) that EM acts as a separate multiplier that scales all of your other stats/damage is flawed, because Elemental Reactions do NOT care about any of your already invested ATK, CRIT, DMG stats, it's an entirely different mechanism that cares ONLY about level and EM, so instead of playing 2 games at once I'd rather focus on unit damage with Keqing and Elemental Reaction dmg on somebody else (Sucrose, Xiangling etc.)
The Bolide set can be pretty good if you are running Petra support on ningguang(or geo traveler). 35% electro damage with almost constant shield uptime is pretty good. Not that I would be using it primarily but I ended up with a full set while farming Petra and it carried me while I farmed the better sets.
@@maxjoal4444 not fully build before two weeks i just unlocked her, a I needed to upgrade her all the way up to lvl80, now she's 80 but her artifacts are not maxed, still in between lvl 12 to 16, but for now she's fine I can replace her with my main dps, pretty sure maxed out strong maxed out, but I've decided to use her when I maxed her out, I'm not sure to use 4 set of bloodstained or 2 set with 2 set of gladiator, anyone still I don't have non of them completed, I don't want to destroy one charecter to build another one, but she's good for now her dps is good, she's 1700atc at 2000atc she'll be op
@@maxjoal4444 now I can confirm to you that physical build is better, I've tried both builds ,and electro build doesn't feel better enough, physical build is good and the way to go
In my opinion, Tshooter is more solo play not switch reaction and nightmare for co op. Permanent extra damage only on target that have electro element. So there is downtime when enemy not inflict with electro (this set is godly to face electro slime) The playstyle become more like razor one man showdown if use t.shooter Tfury is more on elemental reaction from teamplay (barbara, xingiu and xiangling is pretty good), more so in co op (domain for example). Give electro damage while also give extra E skill (dodge and dmg for keqing. For fischl mean more Oz) But have decrease damage when face electro slime, force to only use pyshical but better change other char (the only problem for t.fury set is electro slime tbh) So depends on playstyle, frequently change char for elemental reaction, more benefit to use t.fury And lion roar or iron sting can work well with t.fury
just a little bit of advice!! if youre running tf on keqing, i dont think qiqi is the best option for an electro build. superconduct lowers enemies PHYSICAL res and not elemental. so a cryo chara isnt really necessary for keqing. hope this helps!!
@@nico-ch7ip I don't use Qiqi for elemtal reaction shes there solely for healing purposes only. Its mostly Xianling and Kequing that combos I know all about what each reaction and thier debuffs do! Though I'm sure anyone who passes buy and dosent know about reactions will definitely appreciate what you just said.

finally, someone who can pronounce her name right
PingPong pronunciation are hard man.
I like ya Ke qing
Best video for a a Kequing build hands down. And your pronunciation of her name is smooth as butter 😍
Thanks a lot. Feels great to have someone confirming my research results
Nice vid but I also recommend Hybrid build, electro and physical using 2 piece set glad/bloodstained and 2 piece set thundering fury with a nice substats : DD. +subs for u
2 pc glad is better than 2 pc bloodstained. Atk increases all you types of dmg, while phys only works on her basic and chraged attacks.
Another awesome Keqing guide as always! I've watched a lot of Keqing guides, but I trust your guides the most.
Great work, fam!
Yeah but if your building electro on her. Your limiting her overall damage. Only decent electro set is the 1 that gives damage bonus if effected by electro. Outside that. If you build her electro she csnt be used everywhere. If you just focus physical or even just straight attack. You get more use out of her. That being said. End of the day you don't controll what you really get to use. You will use what drops the best. I have 18 gladiator pieces in a row with def% stat on them. Fk this pos game. Im still using blue items at ar 42 cause I can't get replacement drops with this bs resin system
@@YourLastWish what about not using her everywhere? I specialized her in the electro field and thats when I’ll use her, making her more versatile for every kind of enemy makes her less useful that specialized units of every of those kinds of enemies. The only reason you can make her that versatile is like AJ said in his vid and its if u dont have that much choice and have only mostly built her and the midsummer courtyard sets specifically
@@magi2162 well if your using keq that way your underselling her. Shes definitely best chr in game. She delivers 5x as many attacks as diluc. Numbers may be smaller but more over attacks. I use klee,Barbara, xiang, keq. I play klee as the chr that comes in for 10 seconds cause really thats all shes good for. Xiang just good for special and skill, Barbara also gives that water effect to keq when healing her so there's really no reason to not have keq out 85% the time. 10% klee 5 % other supports
@@YourLastWish I understand that your ignorance comes from a lack of experience/characters but you should stop being biased. First of all, I’m pretty sure you said that about Klee because you dont have a good dps catalyst so you use the widsith for its 10s effect and because you dont have that flexibility doesnt mean that the way you use someone due to that lack of flexibility means that that’s how it is and should be. Because this is completely false and Klee has probably the highest burst potential in the game with the likes of Mona or Beidou. That also applies to Keqing. Because she is your main dps and one of the best characters you have which makes you use her in every kind of content doesnt mean that she is the best at everything, late game content efficiency is about specializing a character in their domain, in what they’re good for to the utmost you can so that when confronted to a situation where they fit, they slap ass. You are probably not in the end game and have a lot to upgrade and build so using Keqing for everything does make sense for now but end game wise thats not the right move to play. Fighting in an electro dungeon with a specialized and built 4 set crimson witch pyro dps is way more efficient than using your keqing that you use for everything else but isnt specialized in anything. So yes specializing Keqing in as an electro dps is really the best way to build keqing for the endgame where every damage, artifact substats and free elemental reaction damage counts. Hopefully you learned something new
@@magi2162 nah cause I take everything into play. I dont care about highest burst. Its how usefull a chr is. Ex.. everyones mouth waters for diluc. Diluc is really just ok. He hits hard sure. Hes.slow as shit takes a ton of extra hit. And thats the same as klee. They take way to many hits with their toolkit. If you have realised that game hasn't changed since level 10 then your a fool. All your doing rinse repeating all your gear. Games never been hard and I continue to still solo most game with keq. Her speed keeps her safe while dishing out high damage. By making her electro your taking away her ability to toggle on her elemental attack and that is a unique benefit to her you are removing. Doesnt matter this game will die off fast. Already boring loging on nothing to do but few quest that take 15mins and burn risen another 20mins. No update will fix this money trap game. So not worth arguing. Games not even hard and most complain after 40 gets way harder. Doesnt feel any differnt to me
Great job, you covered alot more than other youtubers. Looking forward to more artifact and synergy guides!
This is the guide I'm looking for! Perfect for Keqing main.
do a support video for keqing and their build for different matchup, you earned a sub uwu
Same
I'd love to watch this. I'm still confused on which supports are the best for keqing.
very informative! thank you so much. been searching for a guide like this
Where are you sir? Keqing is very powerful now.
Your UA-cam channel for genshin impact is realy amazing, keqing is my Favorit Charakter. Thanks for this helpful artefacts guide. From me big thumbs up👍👍👍
Thank god for this I just hit ar 40 and my keqing lvl 80, I switch her between aquila and black sword lvl 70. I'm rebuilding her Cox just reached ar 40 so hope to get good artifacts and I'm clueless whats good for her anymore
Edit: u deserve more subs too
Thanks for the guides bro, ive been thinking weeks for what artifacts set should i give to my Keqing :D
Nice video, we can see you've put your time into it, you know what you're saying and this makes a huge difference
your guides are so useful, rn im working on my keqing and as im in the midgame, your guides are very important for my gameplay. tysm !!
You are very under-rated! Wish you well bro! Subscribed 👊🏻
This was amazing and well explained subbed by the way, But what can I put for the electro/physical build for the thundering fury and gladiator what can the 5th artifact be to complete the build
5th artifact doesn't matter since it won't give any set effects. as long as it's 5 star rarity and has the correct main stat anything is fine.
Your weapon’s Main Stat makes a big difference in how you build artifacts.
Not sure if this is accurate cause I read it on a random reddit comment, but when you activate noelles shield and switch to another character, the shields def up scales according to the character, not Noelle. This kinda makes it even worse cause we're not putting any defense on Keqing.
on the other hand it clearly says that Noelle's shield's damage absorption scales with her defense. There is no clear way to see how much damage the barrier can take since there is no gauge or number that shows it for us (unless you crack the app and read the code). Whether the reddit comment is right or wrong, mihoyo devs certainly do not want the shield to be like that, it just sounds counter intuitive.
@@daleryanaldover6545 Absolutely. I hope you're right too!
@@daleryanaldover6545 can’t be entirely sure the devs don’t want it to be like that. It could very well be that that is how it’s intended to work but the tooltip got butchered by translation. They said they’d try to fix most leftover translation errors in 1.1
i really feels like that is the case, im using noelle lvl 80 rn, and shield certainly feel last lot longer on noelle than swapping char
i think its because low def character took more damage than noelle (high def) so its feel like the shield depleted more quickly than noelle (the shield still have fix absorption DMG based on noelle Def)
Its sad that i use most my thundersoother for refine my other artifact..
Why i only just see this today😰😰
Finally a good Guide on Keqing!! the other vídeos out there are so confusing or generic! Thanks Bro :) Ver nice video
thanks man... so acurate tips.. is sad that are so many channels with so few good information. pakinov and you made a big work so thanks again
Good guide! I've been looking for a good keqing build for ages
Really good vid. The way you describe all, the order. All. Subscribed
Wow great video man this was super helpful
hello alec, can you confirm whether or not the xinqiu bug is already fixed? so i can pair her up with xinqiu, thanks in advance
pinned comment!
the combo I recently use is actually
Venti Q
Barbara click2
Keqing E
Great video and the order of artifacts is accurate. Though some argue full soother is better but the slimes and all can't be impacted by electro which means you are loosing on the damage. Fury on the other hands regardless give u electro damage bonus which will scale with the ult and her stellar. With the 18 % upgrade in att from glad set so 2 piece fury n glad definitely better
Annnnnd this channel gets my sub. First video I'm seeing from you also 😎
Tnx man ur the best! Looking forward for more Keqing guide..
Thank you for covering everything Keqing. I pulled her on my first roll and she’s been my baby ever since! Also I have 5 constellation Barbara, is no constellation Xingqiu still a better water support than her? Should I pull for more Xiangqiu?
how did u have the exact same unit as me lol. i have keqing, 5 const barbara and no const xingqiu
Once you get Barbara to constellation 6, definitely use her over xingqiu until you eventually pull a qiqi. I would definitely roll for a chance to get Diona, the new ice healer tho. She applies frost for superconduct and heals.
I like Xingqiu over Barbara because he doesn't constantly apply wet to you, and he's much more offensive. I don't have a c5 barbara though so I can't really make a valid comparison..
@@mjbgamez5374 I want Diona, but now I'm not so sure I would use her with Keqing. Superconduct isn't going to be as useful for Electro Keqing. I don't have Xingqiu, and I'm not really keen on rolling on the Klee banner anymore, since I need to save for Diona.
@@mjbgamez5374 is she as good as barbara in healing??? And almost good as qiqi?? Im excited for my razor lol
Thank you for this 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
great video!
Awesome guide, thank you very much!
getting new characters is hard so i watch peopke that have the characters i want and pretend i have them vicariously
What about Mona and the Thundering Fury set? You missed talking about that... :(
Great video man, you've got a new subscriber ! At about 8 minutes in you talk about Keqing needing to be the character that causes the elemental reaction to get the 4 set Thundering Fury effect. Do you know if Barbara's WET effect would result in Keqing or Barbara triggering the reaction?
I'm wondering same. Already have barb built
Great vid! I just hit 40 so this is great help for me.
Thanks for the guide, keep up the hardwork👍👍👍
I like the correct way how u pronounce Keqing. 👍
Tbh im just here to watch keqing gameplay cause i want her so bad...
i got her on my 76th roll on venti/klee banner
@@RRReina Lucky you... Tried the Same rolled until pitty and got Mona.... its fine but not my waifu
I hope you get her soon! I spent a few days rerolling just to get her. I got accounts with more 5* in the process but kept rerolling anyway and I have no regrets, she's so much more fun
Yep you got it all right, it even matches the Keqingmains subreddit and what has been talked there. Using (Electro) 4TS myself atm and might do the 2GR/2TF swap in the future, just need to see what 1.1 changes and does.
Nice vid bro, I just cant decide between gladiator&bloodstained or gladiator&thunderfury for her..she has the blacksword, what would u recommend me?
go electro :)
Such awesome content deserves a sub! Keep up
Thanks for this guides at least now i have an idea on the Pros and Cons of every artifacts for Physical and Electro build....I'll still go with 4 TF set i'll just equip Lion's Roar so i'll still have bonus effect and will have no problem with reactions.
This video is great! You ecplained everything well👌
Good content. I use a full gladiators set with Electro DMG bonus goblet on my Keqing. Been pretty successful so far at AR 43, she still one shots mobs and is my solid solo DPS in floor 9 to 11 in abyss.
Only bad thing about Glads is that the set bonus doesn't buff the charged attacks which is pretty core to Keqings attacks. But take what we can get for now right. I'm still using a Martial Artist 2 piece and a Beserker lol
@@ewoly oh what!? It doesn't buff the charged attacks? damn. Well that sucks, maybe I'll opt for thundersoother instead when I hit AR 45.
Me gusto tu manera de ver la build, lo aprovechare y equipare mi keqing de la mejor manera, thx!!
Have you seen the new weapons in paimon shop? The blackcliff weapons? It has the same passive as the blood stained, I think that might be great if paired with 4 piece set and I think it'll be great in abyss and domains. as far as I know you can get 3 of those and can definitely be refined the thing is it can be bought by starglitter which kinda pain to have.
I am at ar 42 right now i the one thing i noticed is a physical build keqing works really great on all domains especially when farming the electro set. That domain kills you if you activate superconduct. Most if not all domains are reliant on a certain element in order to clear them quickly. So in order to dish out you need a neutral dps to clear them
I pulled Keqing as my first 5 star character and I'm so glad I found your channel and these guides for her as I plan on using her as my main dps char. Are Chongyun and Xiangling as Support DPS and Jean as Healer any good as a supporting team for her?
chongyun is awful imo, better off using kaeya. in chongyuns e field it converts keqings attacks to cryo damage which makes the superconduct null and void. you should find good success if you use kaeya well with keqing, use his e then switch to keqing, tap her E ONCE so you dont teleport then explode it with a charged attack, you are now diing physical damage against an enemy with a 40% debuff. look up a guide on kaeya/physical damage synergy works great for both keqing and razor.
Great video! Do you think you can teams for keqing next? It would help a ton!
Thankss, now i know my keqing have wrong build (i build her 4 gladiator, and always do charge attack)
me too and im doing around 14k using charged attack and my weapon is flute ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i don't see any problem using 4 gladiator
@@xXmauroXxx 4 piece Gladiator's give no bonus to charged attacks, only to normal ones. If you are running 4 piece Gladiator's and spamming Charged Attack (which you should, since she has the best melee charged attack in the game), you might as well only use the 2 piece set and go for something else (like Bloodstained, if running Physical, or Thundering Fury, if running electro).
@@LokiLiesGod The reason why i'm using 4 parts it's because i play the game in spanish and it says that 4 gladiator's set increases your damage 35% with basic attacks and The Black Sword says "
Increases DMG dealt by Normal and Charged Attacks by 20%" soo in my mind was like "it shoulda increase both attacks normal and charged"
@@xXmauroXxx Nope, 4 piece Gladiator's only increase Normal attacks. It's a great set for Razor/Chong, but for KeQing it's a very subpar set, since her biggest damage source is her charged attack.
Complex and useful guide, thank u!
What do you think if Keqing was supported by Diona and using bloodstained+gladiator set? Ofc, for physical damage build.
sounds great, you can use any cryo support as long as it gets the job done (kaeya, qiqi, diona)
Xingqiu is amazing support, pulled C3 today. What are the best weapons on him as F2P?
as f2p really only iron sting comes to mind. you could try your luck on the current weapon banner, sacrificial sword is BiS for him, but it's unlikely you'd get it right away
@@Benalecjohn not fillet blade? Since you switch off of him every time?
@@Benalecjohn what does BiS mean?
My xingqui is at expedition im planning to build him after I HOPEFULLY get childe, any tips or whatsoever? 😂
@@McDudes best in slot
Finally a content creator that says her name right!! Thank you
Ah! thanks so much for this! I'm currently rocking a 4 set 5 star gladiator set with a 4 star cup with atk and all good sub stats. I was actually shocked at how versatile Keqing is. I never thought that I would go for a more physical dps build when I got her but it just kinda happened with what I rolled early on. It works well cause this way she can take on electro enemies as well. I think what makes her such a good character is that she can fill so many rolls on your team depending on how you build her.
also totally feel you on the artifact grinding at AR 40, Definitely not worth it tbh.
Thank you for the tips I will use watch this again when i get to end game :)
I have keqing on the mines since 5 days ago that I got her, but I heard she is good, so I might as well try her out I guess. This guide was useful, thanks.
as of 1.1, you can use characters even if they're on expeditions. Have fun!
This is a great video!
Hi thanks for yet another great Video! just a quick question, I have Xingqiu and TLDR after the patch for the bug fix, its safe to assume to switch to xingqiu first, cast his skill and then back to keqing for the electrocharged? this way it will always be Keqing who triggers it right?
Yes but that would only be the initial trigger (one time).
The way it is now is that both electro and Hydro remain on the enemy (we don't know if that's going to stay), and whenever you reapply Hydro through Xingqiu's water swords every second, it still considers Keqing to be the trigger. If that changes, Thundering Fury will be hit very hard.
Hope I addressed your concern haha
@@Benalecjohn Ah Ic allright then lets hope for the best! Thanks again
I dont know if anyone has recommended this but what I do for midsummer courtyard is that I just outheal the dmg that gets dealt to me just by using bennet. He heals insanely fast and is also a good pyro user so a good chara to invest in!
You are a god man! thanks for this guide, i love you
will you do the same videos displaying the artifacts and weapons for each characters?
considering it right now
Thoughts on going 2/2 bloodstained, thundering fury with an electro cup? Still on the fence about investing for physical or electro when choosing my artifacts I know both can be strong.
Don't go bloodstained on keqing. Just use 2 piece glad instead to increase both your electro and phys dmg.
Yeah but at that point with so much electro id just as well go full thundersoother, the point of bloodstained is for the large physical bonus and the 15% electro from t-fury is bolstered by the electro cup.
@@Valhaluke I actually use thundersoother lmao
@@Valhaluke don't use bloodstained on keqing unless you're going full physical. Bloodstained's passive would not work when you're dealing electro most of the time.
Just use glad 2 pc so both your electro and phys dmg get an increase
I love your guide, it goes beyond stats and very deep into gameplay. I saw from Dreamy’s guide that he recommends Elemental Mastery for Sands of Eon/Hourglass, not Attack. What are your thoughts on that?
I saw only part of that discussion.
At the core of it is the question: Do you want Keqing HERSELF as ONE unit to deal great damage? Or as a TEAM in combination with other units through elemental reactions?
In my opinion EM on a main dps such as Keqing is a trap, but to be honest I haven't tried out any EM builds myself.
What I do know is that Dreamy's initial argument (not sure if he still holds on to that) that EM acts as a separate multiplier that scales all of your other stats/damage is flawed, because Elemental Reactions do NOT care about any of your already invested ATK, CRIT, DMG stats, it's an entirely different mechanism that cares ONLY about level and EM, so instead of playing 2 games at once I'd rather focus on unit damage with Keqing and Elemental Reaction dmg on somebody else (Sucrose, Xiangling etc.)
The Bolide set can be pretty good if you are running Petra support on ningguang(or geo traveler). 35% electro damage with almost constant shield uptime is pretty good. Not that I would be using it primarily but I ended up with a full set while farming Petra and it carried me while I farmed the better sets.
I'm planning to go for a physical build ,thank you!
So how is it going its been to 2 week this comment here. How you build going?
@@maxjoal4444 not fully build before two weeks i just unlocked her, a I needed to upgrade her all the way up to lvl80, now she's 80 but her artifacts are not maxed, still in between lvl 12 to 16, but for now she's fine I can replace her with my main dps, pretty sure maxed out strong maxed out, but I've decided to use her when I maxed her out, I'm not sure to use 4 set of bloodstained or 2 set with 2 set of gladiator, anyone still I don't have non of them completed, I don't want to destroy one charecter to build another one, but she's good for now her dps is good, she's 1700atc at 2000atc she'll be op
@@maxjoal4444 now I can confirm to you that physical build is better, I've tried both builds ,and electro build doesn't feel better enough, physical build is good and the way to go
Ty for thundersoother' specifications, I always wondered if I could also benefit from my basic attacks and not just my electro dmg
In my opinion,
Tshooter is more solo play not switch reaction and nightmare for co op.
Permanent extra damage only on target that have electro element.
So there is downtime when enemy not inflict with electro (this set is godly to face electro slime)
The playstyle become more like razor one man showdown if use t.shooter
Tfury is more on elemental reaction from teamplay (barbara, xingiu and xiangling is pretty good), more so in co op (domain for example). Give electro damage while also give extra E skill (dodge and dmg for keqing. For fischl mean more Oz)
But have decrease damage when face electro slime, force to only use pyshical but better change other char (the only problem for t.fury set is electro slime tbh)
So depends on playstyle, frequently change char for elemental reaction, more benefit to use t.fury
And lion roar or iron sting can work well with t.fury
Thank you for this review. If its possible, do a review for dilucs artifacts set please.........
I guess it's a good thing that i never did artifact run before ar45
Xingqiu or barbara? Which character is the best for keqing? tnx a lot!
I actually main TF just because I have qiqi and Xianling to cause elemental reactions so its the best set for her.
just a little bit of advice!! if youre running tf on keqing, i dont think qiqi is the best option for an electro build. superconduct lowers enemies PHYSICAL res and not elemental. so a cryo chara isnt really necessary for keqing. hope this helps!!
@@nico-ch7ip I don't use Qiqi for elemtal reaction shes there solely for healing purposes only.
Its mostly Xianling and Kequing that combos I know all about what each reaction and thier debuffs do!
Though I'm sure anyone who passes buy and dosent know about reactions will definitely appreciate what you just said.
Thunder set and noblesse oblige is what I use
it is ok my party? keqing, suc, bennet, xiangling or should i put xinqiou
Change suc with xingqiu
Thank you for this!! I don't have that much artifacts stated on ur vid. but I guess i need to get to AR40 first so i could get better artifacts.
