    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).
    Sumeru and 3.0 are finally here. This means we can get our hands on Dendro Traveler, as well as explore a new region. In spirit of this new beginning, I decided to change up the characters we normally use, to allow for some more differentiation. Thanks to new reactions like hyperbloom, aggravate, spread, and more; I can use characters that haven't been given as much of a spotlight in the series yet.
    Thus, this is a new beginning for the account.
    MiHoYo (Now 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 personally don’t mind you using the 5 stars you got through crystals. It’s still interesting to me to see how you solve different puzzles without bows or catalysts etc. I watch another person who does a similar series and he buys every character and it’s still just as interesting. Basically, don’t worry about this series seeming “easy” to your subscribers and just play who you want to play :)

    1: Albedo definitely wants geo damage over defense, especially with those stats.
    2: The dendro damage from hyperbloom is calculated off of the electro character's EM and level, so giving lumine more EM effectively does nothing for that specific reaction.
    3: Crit is very valuable on Aggravate/Spread teams since its another multiplier for the added damage the reaction gives you.
    4: Talent levels will increase only the spread damage for dendro, for other reactions it does little to nothing except at high investment with attack and crit.
    5: Enough about math, Keqing is fun so if you like her, play her.

    I'm for using the keqinf variant of the team. Seems more fun.
    Also my favorite dendro reaction is burgeon. Basically hyperbloom with pyro instead of electro. It just shreads enemies. But bloom generally seems incredible strong.
    Edit:
    Let me also explain the dreams set real quick:
    If you trigger a reaction, you get buffs. Those buffs are 14% attack for every other character with the same element as the person with that artifact and 50 EM for every character with another element as the person with the set. Can be triggered while the character with the set is offield.

    For Hyperbloom teams you actually do NOT need EM on your dendro character since they won't be triggering the reactions. You instead want it on electro character.
    Kaeya, Kuki, Dendro MC, Xingqiu could work really well actually. You put all EM build on Kuki (Iron Sting, EM on all artifacts and the new Gilded Dreams set), the new Dendro set on Traveller (for dendro RES shred) focusing on ER, then CRIT stats, going ER/ATK sands, Dendro cup, CRIT circlet probably and something like Fav sword. For Xingqiu you go for whatever you usually do with him. Kaeya will work nicely for extra damage and some freezes. Building him on Blizzard set can work here. He'd actually help with freezing enemies to make them easier to deal with and the cryo application means dendro lasts longer when you apply hydro for blooms (can watch some theorycrafter vids for more in-depth explanations).
    This team should be getting you quite consistent 30+K hyperblooms as well as all the extra damage from Kaeya and Xingqiu once built up, while also being not too hard to use.

    Kaeya is my favorite character, so I always appreciate him getting some use. I’d at least like to see him in some overworld exploration. I think you should go ahead and give him the mist splitter though.
    I believe the Kaeya, Traveler, Shinobu and Xingqiu team fits a new reaction comp people are calling “Fridge”. Since cryo and and dendro can exist on an enemy at the same time, allowing you to keep enemies frozen in place while triggering dendro reactions on them. Hyperbloom might be difficult to proc this way, though.

    So, Traveller's ult has a really unique thing, hit it with electro and it'll speed up attacks, hydro it'll widen it's AoE, (also pyro blows it up), so I'd actually say, the combo I'd be using for Hyperbloom is Traveller ult, hit ult with electro, trigger Electro-charged on enemies with Xingqiu (remember that Electro-charged is special and keeps BOTH elements on the enemy), then cycle back around to electro the cores that Traveller's ult is making.
    As for "Kaeya or Keqing" I'm team "Whatever you want bruv" but of note, because you have Shinobu you don't need Keqing, and in fact Shinobu is better for Hyperbloom, because she scales of Elemental Mastery to begin with!

  • @anyanP

    If you planning to run hyperbloom teams, you don't need to invest in Lumine's EM -- trigger for the reaction will be electro and the game will look at electro character's EM to calculate damage.
    When running electro+hydro with dendro you might also trigger some spreads/aggravates and for those reactions crit is THE stat you're looking for.
    As for talents, I'd say investing what you get via exploration would probably work the best

    A little thing about Bloom reactions: The secondary reactions, Hyperbloom and Burgeon, are triggered by inflicting Electro or Pyro onto the Bloom cores, which are the seed-looking things, rather than the enemy itself. Not all that important with sword characters and other melee types, but good to keep in mind for Catalysts Only and bow characters.

    EDIT: the blueprints are near the sumeru version of the inazuma tree! you get there after completing the quest with Rana (same quest as the top comment)

  • @yourfriendlyneighborhoodca2647

    as far as dendro reactions go, the general consensus is that aggravate (dendro + electro creates quicken, and if you apply dendro or electro to a quickened enemy you get a flat defense bonus) is rlly good for keqing bc of her decent electro application, while for hyperbloom kuki is prob the better option bc you're going to stack em on her and hyperbloom only scales off em and character lvl
    but yeah, unless you want to try a fridge team with kaeya (dendro blooms + freeze), keqing would probably be the better option. that being said, fridge is also pretty cool imo

If you go with the second option, maybe you'd do a Kaeya appreciation video and raise him to put my heart at rest?

    To be honest, Java, constantly nerfing your own account for challenge content makes it a bit underwhelming in my opinion. I think the growth of the account and overcoming challenges you once couldn't is what makes it entertaining, at least for me. If you constantly give yourself limitations so that you always have a challenge, it feels like there is no progression at all - or that the progression you got through is worthless. I think special episodes like "only using x characters" or "not using x character" are fine, but it's a bit sad to not see you use the characters you invested in because it would be "easy."
    Regardless, I'm always gonna watch your content and can't wait to see the future of all your accounts! It's only fun if you enjoy it. Listen to the community but most importantly yourself!

    I believe whoever triggers hyper bloom is the one who needs the EM, so EM on the dendro character in this case may not have much of an effect, also that reaction will get a boost from dendro shredding effects because the reaction does dendro damage. As for Aggravate, it actually scales very well on crit as well as EM, so you do need crit. In an aggravate team with the traveler, they'll also probably also trigger it (I think the dendro version is called spread) so having crit on them is also valuable. It kinda just depends on the team and who's triggering reactions for that stuff I think

    In a hyperbloom team, your gonna get aggravate/spread as side anyway, which do scale with talent level although proportionally less than with other reaction like vape/melt.
    Generally, DPS that rely on aggravate/spread want crit first then em/att.
    Hyperbloom/burgeon wants em only (in your team with Kaeya, Kuki is the only character that will trigger hyperbloom so you can go full em on her)
    That team would probably be call a fridge team and has some of the benefit of a frozen team mixed in with the dendro. Maybe less flexible for exploration but definitely something to consider for abyss. It seemed to work well for you and you don't have to worry about building em on anyone other then Kuki
