I really like the small Easter Egg that Mihoyo put in Baal's dialogue "Next time I will strike twice" coz it's a famous myth that "lightning doesn't strike twice (at a same spot/thing)"
nice catch! /g it could also be a reference to her musou no hitotachi (one slash of no conception), indicating that she'll make that two strikes next time
Might be 100% viable with Ganyu, Jean, Ningguang, and the fourth slot would go to someone who can apply electro without use of skills or bursts. Fischl & Lisa come to mind to gain shield through crystallization from Ningguang. They'd all be able to provide something without the use of their skills or bursts. Zhongli's shield is dope and all, but if you can't use skills he becomes just a mediocre polearm user. Shame they didn't allow further progress through the fight by setting a hard condition flag to the HP bar of Baal, triggering the cutscene. I would leave a like, but you're sitting at 420 currently.
From understanding the lore, if Zhongli wanted to, he could take on and most likely beat Baal since he is seen as the strongest of the 7 archons but he knows that starting another archon war will only lead to a large scale death of far too many citizens of Liyue and Inazuma and he wants to avoid that after the senseless death that happened during the last archon war.
Zhongli is the oldest of the current set of archons since the Archon war. the Tsarista is currently the youngest. which means there are definitely other gods out there who are looking to take their places or have vendetta's, such as osial during liyue arc. it is stated that all other gods fled the 7 regions controlled by the 7 archons. The archon war was not a direct conflict between all 7 current archons with each other but MULTIPLE gods fighting each other within those territories. Monstadt: decarabian vs andrius (wolf god). venti took the position because andrius is disappointed in humans. Liyue: morax, guizhong, alatus(xiao), havria, osial are all listed gods or adepti in the liyue region during the archon war. Inazuma has not presented enough history to learn of past archons. It is stated that venti and zhongli are the only 2 who are of the original 7 archons with the other 5 having changed within the last 2000 yrs
ah right. my bad 500yrs ago was when the tsaritsa changed her stance and became more active. wonder if there's a correlation there and well the lack of dendro in the game as a whole *cough* baizhu *cough*
when i was watching this cutscene in game, i was NOT expecting that i'm gonna fight her right off the bat so i was really surprised and unprepared while fighting her 😭 i just ran around during the whole fight nd threw some few hits on her, thank god i survived on my first try 😭
@@namyfluid think I had fischl, klee, zhongli, diona. zhongli pretty much ez carried it, just pop shield then fischl klee overload spam shredded her... at least until the part where the visions get locked, then I kinda panicked but fischl/klee do pretty well with normal/charged attacks and I'd just switch to zhongli/diona when it looked like I was about to eat something big.
Lmao in a duel baal definitely stronger than tsaritsa let alone signora a mere harbinger, the only way the can take hers is by using underhanded trick i guess

I was overwhelmed that this boss fight is like a requirement in a Story quest when I fought Childe in the Jade Chamber. It turns out I had to survive to the next cutscene. What a relief.
Aether in electro cutscene: speed boost and a powerful electro infusion literally sasuke Aether in electro gameplay: can't even dash like xiao Edit:sadge from his previous leaks this was his E the one I said the cutscene
This is probably what happen if vision holder challenge her Baal: you're strong,really strong i admit that,however... *Baal move her hand and our vision fly to her palm* Baal: without this,you are nothing *Disable our ability to control element*
4:18 really cool detail in Raiden's eyes, you can actually see Ei taking the backseat once again, her eyes turning darker and her expression more serious a second later, meaning the Shogun was back in control.
Dull Blade is secretly a 6* Weapon. I mean bruh, Aether (Canonically) use that thing to defeat Dvalin, having a duel with Childe and even now using it in a fight with Raiden. Technically, that sword would've been broke by now or long time ago.
@@Haisebtway they are both elemental creatures, they don't need visions. Their's are fake, during the mision where you go to the prision to rescue the "fake vision maker" dude paimons says "i bet this is where venti got his fake vision".

@@chuecoxx For me, at first she's annoying. But guess what, it's also Paimon who ease the traveller when the sibling leave him/her again. Paimon also fun to be teased of.

"The Vision Hunt Decree is here. Except for the Traveler, character cannot use Elemental Skills or Bursts" Me being a traveler main: *im about to ruin this womans whole life* Edit: Thanks for +1k likes!
euthymia might have something to do with this, but it isn’t actually to be emotionless, rather it’s a resilience to mood disturbances. « while in a euthymic state, one typically experiences feelings of cheerfulness and tranquility » they also show an « increased level of resiliency to stress. » i think Euthymia is still a bit weird of a word to be elected for Baal though, since the emotional state is commonly linked to bipolar disorder:
When they were running away from baal i was like "quick back to liyue" Also its funny how the whole story we r getting praised because of our abilities then we get to inazuma and its like "i heard your special, i dont care"
Yeah, it was getting annoying in liyue, like yeah yeah i'm no commoner but come on!! It was refreshing to have actual conflict of winning the respect from people again to achieve our goal
@@cardeselmalevolo4014 Yeah I think even the Traveler gets kinda tired from the over hyped praise like these ppl all around acting like he's a new messiah or something but just doing a few commissions
@@oyasumi6601 I think what the OP meant is that Zhongli's elemental skills are also locked during the "Vision Hunt Decree is in force" phase, albeit he is an Archon himself and can channel elemental energy without vision.
@@oyasumi6601 so then if it's "some people like you" that make that mistake, are you saying you are also one of those people who "skips the dialogue and story and wastes others effort?" 🤔
Baal: The vision hunt degree is in force. Except for the traveler, characters cannot use elemental skills or bursts. Me, an anemo traveler main: Oh no...anyway.
I love how Ganyu, while fighting one of the STRONGEST beings on this planet, instead of being scared of Baal, she’s worrying about “next on the agenda” and her being late. What a mood in my opinion.
Listen. If you are fighting eternity what would you do? Like I mean you obviously won't win. So you won't have eternity. So might as well plan how your non eternal life is gonna be or planning what's next. Right?
I aint complaining that she was hard, but man if I just new that she would be cancelling the vision I would have switched to using razor instead if xiao AHHAHAHAHAHAHAH. In fact, i think her damage isnt a lot and some of her attacks were predictable and if she didnt cancel the vision, it would just honestly be a tankier childe fight
People forget we've never seen an Archon w/ their Gnosis fight...or fought one. It should be extremely hard if not nigh impossible. I'm sure some people complaining didn't even play the story, and just skipped all the dialogue to just do combat (which is fine generally), but in story reasons / 'scripted' losses are a thing and they should at least be aware of that and _why_ . Probably even same people that couldn't clear Vagabond (if WL8) on their own. Or put on the most stupid debuffs / boss buffs in that event that made it too hard for them.
if they really have no mercy, they would have added thunder storms like on the the third island every sec just to show going against the ruler of electro
Bruhh i was attacking her with my electro keqing for like 3min until i realize my attack didn't do one thing to her as she was immune to electro damage That fight was brutal for me
Ganyu and Kazuha bursts are like domain expansion. It would be epic to transport the abyss enemies to a completely different dimension and wipe them out.
I wish they would make her a weekly boss or a boss we can fight in general, the adrenaline i felt while fighting her was smth I hadn't experienced since I was a lower AR, i even had to use food buffs. I would gladly fight her again. Plus, as a traveler main, i thanked the heavens up above for letting me use their elemental skills and burst, but as a zhongli user, i cursed the fact that I was awful at dodging
Man dont even get me started- i thought i had to bring her hp down all the way so i kept refusing to use food heal/buffs n what-not n kept getting killed n restarting... until I saw this video, felt dumb n proceeded to finally finish it
My lvl 90 hu tao, fischel ,zhongli and kazuha were kicking her ass until she disable my elemental power , after that i kept running from her until cutscene poped up .
some interesting things,baal literally took aether to "another reality" just to duel him (idk how to explain it,its similar to mordekaisers ult from league) its so freakin cool honestly,and also if you notice, she seems focused and shows some emotion during that reality,but after she comes out of it she goes back to seem "emotionless".I find it very interesting
@@vaibhavrawat8875 if baal will die then how are we gona get her in our team? most likely fatui gona steal her gnosis again. and she will lose most of her power and become like venti and zhongli. In the first island if you talk to the small girl , she will say that strange people with masks had come to island and the commision didnt stop them from entering nor ask any questions to them. they are likely fatui

Baal hasn’t made a single facial expression in that whole fight. She is truly emotionless.
Finally, a strong rival for Diluc (perhaps too strong??)
Emotions are an enemy of eternity.
Euthymia is being in a state of calm or state of living withoud mood for a long time.that's why she's emotionledd
euthymia might have something to do with this, but it isn’t actually to be emotionless, rather it’s a resilience to mood disturbances. « while in a euthymic state, one typically experiences feelings of cheerfulness and tranquility » they also show an « increased level of resiliency to stress. » i think Euthymia is still a bit weird of a word to be elected for Baal though, since the emotional state is commonly linked to bipolar disorder:

I hate how people are complaining about her being strong. Wasn’t everyone asking for harder bosses?
Yeah and they can't whine all day, do they not know she's an archon or something.
I aint complaining that she was hard, but man if I just new that she would be cancelling the vision I would have switched to using razor instead if xiao AHHAHAHAHAHAHAH. In fact, i think her damage isnt a lot and some of her attacks were predictable and if she didnt cancel the vision, it would just honestly be a tankier childe fight
People forget we've never seen an Archon w/ their Gnosis fight...or fought one. It should be extremely hard if not nigh impossible. I'm sure some people complaining didn't even play the story, and just skipped all the dialogue to just do combat (which is fine generally), but in story reasons / 'scripted' losses are a thing and they should at least be aware of that and _why_ . Probably even same people that couldn't clear Vagabond (if WL8) on their own. Or put on the most stupid debuffs / boss buffs in that event that made it too hard for them.
I wasn’t complaining. I love the fight. It shows just how oppressive Baal is and good god I was fearful and panicking the whole cutscene.
Exactly!!
