- The Spiral Abyss...
With Alhaitham on the party now, we can build a juice hyperbloom team and take on the Spiral Abyss... right?
Wrong.
The plan was speedrun Lantern Wrong (Rite) for C2 Xingqiu, then absolutely curb-stomp the Spiral Abyss. Though I think we were the one getting curb-stomped.
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).
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.

I can't get past chamber 2 🧍
@@HopeIsADrug11037 I'm still stuck at Floor 12 Chamber 1
yess finally that *thing* is gone
@@HopeIsADrug11037 it is probably the scorpion and bird so my rule is to dash all the time, try not to use charge atk to be able to escape, a shield is pretty much a must if you can
OMG YEAAAAH FINALLY WE ARE FREE
the aesthetic of alhaitham holding a pretty green sword in one hand and a creepy red umbrella in the other while having that pokerface of his
literally. why do I find it so funny to see him fight with an u m b r e l l a
LMAOO
Mom can I get wanderer
-no we have wanderer at home
1:08 wanderer at home 💀
Him not taking the dendroculus every time he goes to fight the boss is going to be the end of me
The first artifact was so painful to look at 😭
every time he dropped into the Wenut Tunnels and AVOIDED the dendroculus I physically recoiled
same with when he ran away from the viewpoint at 16:19
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
For the freeze team, Layla is infinitely better than Bennett. Sure Bennett’s attack buff is great but it won’t matter much if Ayaka’s burst keeps missing because pyro gets rid of freeze. Also two Ayaka bursts without Bennett buff is better than one Ayaka burst with Bennett buff, because Ayaka would not be able to burst frequently without a battery like Layla. Also, cryo resonance is really good. Layla is also probably the best user of tenacity of the mileleth. You just need to make sure Layla’s shield is strong enough to tank most hits (build her triple hp, level her up, and level her e talent) and you should be good
laylas definitely not a good user of 4pc tenacity, and kuki is much better with it
@@dominosquash7862
She is literally the best user of it though
1- She scales with HP
2- Her e hits enemies regularly if you build her well
3- Kuki doesn’t make use of the shield strength
4- Kuki is way better with gilded dreams or flowers of paradise lost
The only argument you could have is Zhongli using it better but sometimes his e misses so technically Layla still uses it to its full extent more
Adding to that, if you use Favonius Sword with Layla you can have both full shield AND burst uptime, helping you easily proc Tenacity's buff every 3 seconds.

HAPPY LUCK MONTH
good luck to everyone who is farming artifacts i hope everyone gets nice artifacts. and good luck to people who is trying to get the character they want. i hope y'all get the characters you want.
Good luck to you too!
What does happy luck month mean :0
Thank you Good luck to you too❤
@@kindateia no
Good luck to you too💖
You could use nilou with al haithman because she can apply hydro and xingqiu with ayaka
He forgor
He forgor💀
I know Nilou's blooms are enhanced but Ayaka generally works better with an AOE hydro applier, since freeze only affects enemies you will usually see in crowds while you'll usually want heavy single-target DPS for bosses that can't be frozen. It's why Xingqiu/Yelan is usually used on nationals (which are actually great AOE teams too, nationals just do absolutely everything well) while Kokomi is favoured for Ayaka by people who have both.
@@vitriolicAmaranth does the bloom damage come from the hydro character's em only, or does the dendro character's em matter in bloom comps?
@@jaded_tofu if you do Hyperbloom only electro EM counts, for bloom It counts who creates it, so if dendro is applied over hydro dendro EM is counted, if hydro is applied over dendro hydro EM is counted
4:56 as a polish person this killed me
Oh yeah me too xD
Real😭
SAME
True
bro same
Java, if you want to do a decent hyperbloom team i would say you need to level kuki up, couse the bloom related reactions scale with em AND level, so here were some advice
Well clearly he isn’t in a great situation to build another character right now is he
@@freddyray1
No need to be rude.
@@-Theo- he's not rude, he's correct.
@@sweetsurrender815
One can be correct and yet still be rude.
@@-Theo- lmao nah that’s not true
After 2 painful abysses i was finally able 36 star again this time
i fr said " its so funny how their all using a sword " and thats when it hit me. IVE BEEN WATCHING SWORDS ONLY FOR SOME TIME NOW BRO AND I KNEW WHAT I WAS WATCHING MY BRAIN TOOK A BREAK
You should definitely level up to lv4 all artifacts that have at least 1 crit roll just to see the 4th stat. I goy most of my best artifacts this way
Especially if it's a max crit roll. You never know if you'll get a second crit stat and it ends up being worth it
you can also infinitely feed lvl 4 artifacts into each other without lost xp (as in, if you feed a +4 artifact into a +0, it’ll always go to +4 despite the diminishing returns you usually get. dunno why, but it happens)
@@cxrindgo true, i forgot to mention that, its not like you lose exp usually i end up getting an x5 eventually and thats basically a free 12 levels worth of artifact exp
I think it'd be more important just to get straight +20 pieces on all the relevant characters. Him running around with +16s and the like is agony.
@@ThatguycalledJoe i’m starting to think this is why he can’t 36 star abyss even on his main account like so what if it gets one dead roll?? it’s always better to have a level 20 artifact then a 16 one especially if you don’t have anything better
"Lantern Wrong" bro i cried laughing my mom thought i was crazy 💀
Yay artifacts 😭😭😭 don't we love those
BRO WALKED ON THE SKY 💀
For that ayaka team, you can use 4pc tenacity on that Layla. You’ll get less, but similar atk increase and cryo resonance. Imo negating dmg entirely is better than taking dmg and healing it back. Good video as always 😅
+ Bennet needs his burst (60 energy cost) to give atk buff and proc noblesse while Layla scales on HP and isn't as energy hungry. She can also proc 4pc ToM without needing any ER + she can use fav to give energy to the whole team. Layla is infinitely better.
@@CorejanjanTrue
Al Haitham works perfectly fine with 2pc combos (2pc EM sets and 2pc deepwood combos for example)
Love this combo for Frankenstein sets. Let’s you to continue spam farming shime/emblem for your non-dendro teams
I have an idea, hear me out. Aranyaka Sub-A-Thon. Start with a timer of like, an hour and extend the timer for each sub you get while you do Aranyaka on Swords Only, Spells Only, and the Main (JavaLocke can be excluded). Pick the one you start on with a vote, but have a way where someone can (by giving you money) force you to change which account you're playing on the spot. Stream ends when time runs out, and subs will stop adding time if Aranyaka is cleared on all three accounts before the stream is over.
I have no idea what's worse, the fact that Im Polish and never acknowledged the 'pupa' part in sand grease pupas, or that I forgot that "pupa" means butt.
In my household, we use "dupa" a lot more, which means a*s. No idea why.
When I heard Java say that, I genuinely had to pause and my brain's gears started turning.
You ain't alone ^^;
Pewnie dlatego, że pupa to bardziej dziecinne słowo :P nigdy nie słyszałam aby ktoś go używał, chyba że rozmawia z dzieckiem o tym jak ma się nauczyć podcierać czy coś xd
@@dokchampa9324 Teraz kiedy o tym myślę, masz rację. Dzięki za wyjaśnienie.
First time commenting, long time watcher- thank you for making videos Java! You really brighten my day every time you post! ❤
just gotta say java, been watching your videos for a few days now, and i am honestly very impressed with the quality and content you can achieve with such new premises and with them not getting boring. you're a great content creator with a nice humor and a good style of editing, i love the way you add genshin music over the own game sounds, it makes it feel professional yet still familiar.
good luck with your accounts and with your channel, you honestly deserve each and every subscriber and even more!
the fact that java read us the polish people comments put a smile on my face lmao
i love the video btw🤍
FINALLY who else was waiting forever for Java to upload
These videos bring me so much comfort and I have no idea why, everytime one comes out it puts a smile on my face even if im in the worst mood, thanks Java :)
I just binge watched this whole series over the past few days, I absolutely LOVE IT, I hope you get your chronically bad luck into some good luck soon:)
Java casually using a game breaking glitch to get from monstatd to liyue
The fact that his team was at the same place in abyss that I was with one of the main damage dealers on lvl 1 talents kinda just grabbed me by the throat
You only need to do like the first hour or so of the quest to unlock the Sumeru tree and get the sword blueprint.
5:00
The sword for Bennett, you don’t need to do the whole quest for it. All you have to do is until you unlock Vararana. It’s not thattt longgg.
I think it's spelled varanara
vanarana
freindly reminder to build your nilou
If you wanted to, you could use Nilou instead of ayato just because of how much more hydro application she has
Good tip ayato is actually a little better then xingqiu in hyperbloom and you can pul xingqiu with Ayaka which will be better for ayakas team.
I've been waiting for a new episode of swords only, it makes me so happy
Java i love your videos!! Everytime I finish one of them I can't wait for the next!
17:41 as a polish person, i spit my water bcs this caught me so off guard
Same xDD
1:09
alhaitham things. don’t worry about it.
yo java ur vids r so fun and ur voice is really cool
continue to feel the pain of artifacts
Yaaaaay
Hello Java, thx for the content. I LOVE IT!!!!
Keep it up!!!
🥰
I clicked faster than my brother trying to catch me in tag
tfw you finally have a team for bloom nilou and forget her😭 justice for nilou
you run flying to liyue made me laugh too hard 💀
POV:you have worse luck the Xlice
java not getting the dendroculus in the wenut tunnels just triggers me.
“I’m pretty sure there’s a name for non-condensed resin..”
Yes Java… It’s called resin..
I needed to watch this after about 20 minutes of crying bc of something indont want ro mention, thank you so much java for comforting me when i need it most
I just finished my work for today, and when I saw new video from Java, it made my evening even better.
java posting right as im settling down to eat is a message from god.
if it helps there are some pupa outside of the tunnels somewhere in the desert, interactive map helps a lot
The toy selling granny in liyue sells the fire works from last year :D
Hey Java, if you want more team suggestions, I suggest running Keqing, Kuki, Dendro Traveller, Kazuha
It's an incredibly strong team and, before Nahida, it was the best aggravate team if Kuki was swapped with Fischl
But Kuki is still a really good unit for this team due to her Electro application and healing in general
So if you want easier time or a new team to mess around with, I recommend this team greatly!
I've been trying something like this myself, except with sucrose since I don't have kazuha. Really really makes keqing shine in a way she hasn't for so long. Kuki can even be built with EM and crit for her burst, as well as her healing.
Your AlHaith team seems to be good as well! I will say, as someone who just 9 starred the 11th floor but struggles to ever do floor 12, the same freeze team keeps helping me through the 2nd half of every new abyss..... it's like freeze is permanently needed on the second half to actually get me through
I really hope he keeps saying poo-pa cuz it gives me a worrying about of joy
LOVE UR VIDS✨✨!!🎉
Just got a cold, and now a Java video to help with that! Thank you sm Java!
Also hello there bell/ early gang :)
Java’s transitions just keep getting better, however much I think that “this is the peak”
dude those attempts summarize my time at the abyss especially when ur the type to never give up
🤣🤣🤣🤣
AMAIXNG VIS AS ALWAYS
Yes a video I was so bored with me being sick at home
If you are going to use a reaction-based team you need to lvl 90 the characters a lvl 76 kuki wont help you on the team at all
bruh have you seen the amount of xp books he has, its probably more resin efficent to go for artifact upgrades than to farm leylines for xp and mora seeing how dreadful his artifacts are
@@TheColdestplay you know that there is a low change ur gonna get a perfect amazing artifact plus if ur gonna do a reaction based team you need em or lvl up getting em is hard + if you level them up you are guarinteed for an update and artifacts take an absurd amount of mora as well
I finished the entirety of Lantern Rite in one day, it doesn't take that long at all
Keqing,Albedo,and Nilou are in the forgotten by Java corner.
Really fun video (to watch, but probably not to film), also, maybe you could stream the off camera farming? It would be pretty nice..
Al Haitham has made hyperbloom teams so much more enjoyable
I just remind you that spear from Monshtad Windrite event is lvld up with mats from Kaenriach knights. That lived in Casm.
finally another swords only video
it feels so good to watch java’s video that was uploaded 20 mins ago
there's a show called solar opposites where the aliens have a thing named a pupa and they're waiting for it to explode and make a planet for them
Wait I haven’t watched a sword only episode in a while but did he abandon kequing for dendro kequing
alhaithams the newest character and they both want a lot of time on field so yeah hes just playing with alhaitham for now
@@fizzyjam ok thanks
The intense background music is um... 😵💫
the connection between inazuma sword and sumeru drops is a jojo reference
Hey java, idk if you maybe already have it, if you do ignore this, but the new craftable sword from sumeru is amazing on dendro traveler as support. It drops little leafs that increase EM for the character picking them up. Only downside is you would have to go through aranyaka quest again to get it 💀
I actually brought that up in this video, and mentioned how I originally planned to get it, but explained why I'm not going for it just yet
It's actually not that long to get it, it's only until you unlock vanarana/tree of dreams. It only takes around 30 minutes to unlock it.
Java: so were gonna be a normal cannel and f2p
also Java: spends money on onlyspells and proceeds to glitch like a non normal player
Hes used money on nilou and mo- i mean Raiden
5:00 POLISH REFERENCE ‼️‼️‼️😱😱😱
Invest in your Kuki if you want hyperbloom to carry
love your videos
The fact I forgot that creepy ahh sword exists is so funny to me
I just watched a tutorial how to clear abyss 36 stars, and they recommended to focus on the 12th floor chamber 3 first. Prepare the best team fro it, and all other chambers don't really matter, we just need to go through them and prepare bursts for the third one. After we clear 3 start 3 chamber, we can restart and focus on the second chamber (after clearing it we even don't need to do 3rd chamber anymore, as we already have 3 stars there)
thanks for giving me luck to win a 50/50 lol
while i was watching you i casually did a 10 pull and got haitham
so i will give you my luck in exchange :D
I love your videos
me teleports (sometimes flies with scaramouche or ayaka ice or mona water or my newly keqing)
this guy walks on air (he could ahve liek used alhaitem skill to go faster )
I have EXACTLY the same Alhaitham team, I didn't even realize that it was all swords
Good luck on the standard banner! I hope you get a Jade cutter or Jean!
If you do kazuha story quest, you can get a good attack percent weapon that's really good on ayato
to be perfectly honest, your characters aren't the problem, even if they are a little underinvested. your main problem is artifacts, if you just farm artifacts for like months youll get drastic improvement. it sucks but thats what ive been doing and it helps so much. (also your artifact expectations are way too high)
Yeah he's spreading his resources very thin instead of focusing on a single character and their supports for a while, which would drastically improve abyss performance, too. But then again, seeing new characters and building them is part of what keeps this series popular, so it's kinda hard for him to farm for a few months for the same unit
i agree in some ways; if he’s farming to get fodder to level his decent artifacts, that would be really helpful. less so with just general upgrades
like the other person said, he’s spreading his resources too thin and should focus on some in particular.
before he goes into artifact farming aka rng hell, he’ll do much better if he can get the guaranteed upgrades. getting weapons and talents up as high as possible, for one. then levels. the likelihood of getting a significant improvement with artifacts is very low, whereas with talents it can be guaranteed. (and it’s also less painful)
even just getting a good mainstat leveled up to +20 is a significant boost, so getting more fodder for artifacts is definitely beneficial, but as for continuously farming for months just for an improvement… could be much better spent elsewhere. he’s not at the stage where he can be really picky with substats. getting a full mainstat is important for now
(though i’d still go weapons first, esp since they can be swapped around)
but yeah, like you said, even just farming artifacts, regardless of what he gets, is beneficial for feeding and getting up those main stats, especially when it comes to stats like ER
@@cxrindgo it really frustrates me how picky java is with substats, like he really cannot afford it
@@jaded_tofu he definitely is doing that too. he does episodes for each character and stuff and that is definitely entertaining but now that i know abyss is his goal i feel like he can't just do one singular episode and say "okay that characters done now!", he has to devote at least a couple weeks' worth of farming for each character and that is excluding artifacts, thats just talents and ascension and weapon. personally i do think 70/80 is fine for most characters who dont want EM, but his talents should probably be way higher. anyway, i dont think his builds outside of artifacts are bad but his artifacts kill me slowly every time he throws one away bc its mid even if its still usable.
@@fizzyjamomg yeah, he’s still in the endgame mindset of his main account it seems. nothing inherently Wrong with that, but it’s so painful to see. i usually end up deliberately not focusing on things that are being fed when i can bc i know ill be bothered otherwise 😭
By the way for hyperbloom only kuki shinobu EM counts so you can build Al as a dps and traveler too, you can give them less EM since they're not triggering spread but just bloom and then kuki hyperblooms it
actually he gets plenty of quicken and spread reactions since its more of a quickbloom team (not enough hydro application for the amount of dendro he applies), so he should stay around 200-300 EM for these quicken and spread reactions. also alhaitham scales off EM with his A4.
I love this series lol
This is me right now. Early on less characters to work with now too many characters to build.
I jumped seeing Java posted a video
Umm completely off topic, the music at the beginning was such a vibe. Didn’t expect to click and be boppin my head
i’ll have to watch this later agh
java, to increase the hyperbloom damage i would suggest you to level 90 kuki since the damage boost from lvl 80 to lvl 90 is quite significant.
i tried doing a comparison before i upgraded my lvl 80 kuki to lvl 90. before, the hyperbloom did around 20k.
meanwhile, kuki at lvl 90 (with 850 elemental mastery) boosts the hyperbloom damage by ~13k, in total she did around 30-33k!
hope this helps :>>>
A tip I have for monolith floors:
Always charge all your character’s bursts before killing the last enemy, since you have no timer it should be easy to do without wasting time. It’s made the second chambers a lot easier, especially when there was oceanid enemies.
also I agree, second half of 11-3 is a nightmare. hoping the next time it changes, it isn’t a DPS check.
this reminds me of the time I suffered to crown Haitham
My brain's window got restarted when he started flying
I'd still recommand using Ayato in Alhaitham hyperbloom team, since he has better AoE on his burst
You should do a bows only series
JAVA UPLOADED, ITS A GOOD DAY
4:56 NOOOO WHO TOLD HIM
seeing him never pick up that dendrocolus hurts me
A SHORTER VIDEO YAAS I CAN WATCH THIS. 🗿😍😍
Edit : For some time, get Some EXP books u dont have ANY chacters LVL 90.
I reccomend doing Kazuu, Ayaya and some 4-stars (Kuki, xiniqiu and travel)
And yes. Dont say Pupa (coming from a Polish person)
i personally find it funny
It just sounds hilarious
you don't want ayaka or xingqiu to be prioritized leveling to 90. they gain a lot less damage than kuki kazuha or any other character who has EM
