As an Anemo main, I both LOVE and HATE this character lmao I love how she buffs my Wanderer/Xiao's dmg... but I hate that a LOT of her potential is locked behind C6 (and the insanely high ER requirement at C0)... What are your thoughts? Small Edit: i wanna emphasize that in 3 anemo comps (w/ sucrose TTDS or Venti) Faruzan even C0 or especially C2 can be good with Xiao and a worthwhile slot in certain Xiao teams if you have enough energy generation (with her becoming rly insane with Xiao at c6, as mentioned --- like actually xiao + faruzan c6 is INSANE).
appreciate the honesty in this video. too many genshin content creators don't account for how the constellation system is designed annoyingly at times. thanks
Also the video title is straight-forward and doesn't exaggerate like "Amazing damage" or "This character is so good" and then you find out it's not really that simple or they mention the flaws of the character way late into the video.
Isn’t this what everyone says about Faruzan though? Almost all of the content creators mention that she’s constellation dependent, even when she’s still pretty solid at C0.
I agree with the honesty, BUT I feel like the Genshin content creation community came together on this one. Most ars calling her unplayable at C0 compared to her C6. Zy0x was even more conservative than some saying 320% ER at C0.
If you currently don't have Faruzan C6, ZyOx's recommendation is correct: You need to focus just on ER to get her Burst up since it's what buffs your Anemo DPS's DMG. Here's a quick tip on how you can build 300% ER on Faruzan: - Weapon: Favonius Warbow (lv90/+61.3% ER) - Artifact set: 2pcs Exile 2pcs Emblem (+40% ER). - Artifact stat: + Flower and Feather: 2pcs Exile + Sands: ER% (Emblem/51.8% ER) + Goblet/Circlet: 1 of 2 is Emblem. So without counting Artifact stat, you already have 100 (base ER) + 61.3 + 40 + 51.8 = 253.1% ER. You will need 46.9% ER from the 4 artifact pieces (not Sands), which is ~11.7% ER (2/3 artifact rolls with 5* artifact or 3/4 rolls with 4*). This is definitely doable and you can potentially get more to find your comfortable ER spot. You can go with the full 4pcs Noblesse/Viridescent but it will be a bit tougher to reach 300% ER, and your support like Bennett may run Noblesse already. Remember that any seconds you don't have Faruzan's Burst back after the 20-second cooldown ends means you are losing DPS. Overall, great video :)
I spent two days using faruzan at c5 and I was crying the whole time doing it. After getting her C6 I was so angry when I realised how easy to use she becomes with her last constellation. It shouldn’t be this way
@@No-jr4mp I'll build her rn since i think she's still good with Wanderer and i already have her at c2, so I'll be saving up on Scara's rerun or anyone with Faruzan featured to get her at c6 at some point
I have her at c6 and yeah, she's much stronger, also I've noticed that her damage is pretty good too, I've seen her burst hit for 40k before which is kinda nutty for a support meant to buff teammates.
Also since her skill procs a lot it does a bit more sub dps overtime. Not sure how much it would do since I'm low on resources so my c6 faruzan doesn't do much damage on the pressurised collapse
Had Xiao since his first banner. Finally got her on her rerun since I took a year long break from genshin. Getting back in and now my Xiao is doing 90k per slam at C0 for both 💀💀💀
@@Solace98 I wouldn't call it "just" if the character deadass needs up to or even over 300% ER to be a proper support. Even then, the Sara gameplay is.... unique. The real problem though, is the fact that her clunkiness, pathetic CC, and energy problems can be solved with ONE (1) constellation, the last one, as well as additional 40% anemo crit dmg because WHY NOT put all of it in one, why would they spread these effects to other cons, its not like they have 3 other slots that can have something other than talent lvl up.
@@tingybong Oh yeah she definitely deserves to be on the list, but I wanted to make it more Sumeru-themed to show a worrying trajectory of some of the most recent 4 stars to date
I got her c4 somehow in 50 wishes and built her to 70 and was so unimpressed. Sure she gave a great damage buff but it was actually impossible to play her with xiao who already has his own energy problems. I bit the bullet and pulled till her c6, got wanderer in the process, and my god she became a 5* support immediately. No character should have that much power locked behind one constellation
This is similar to me, I got insanely lucky with getting 4 copies of her before pulling any other 4 star and then I got her c6 right before wanderer. She’s currently still being built at level 60 with 210 energy recharge(favonious/double energy recharge) and she’s amazing. As a Welkin player her and wanderer are going to be amazing and all I really want is a Thoma to pair with bennet
I wont be surprised if every 4 star released after Faruzan is constellation dependent and clunky (maybe), considering how much harder it is to get 4* than 5* . I'm even surprised it took them this long to do this kind of aggressive monetization, though they did do this for some characters like C1 Hu Tao (which shouldn't have existed in the first place, and was Cleary a "create the problem sell the solution" type of scheme).
Hey we asked for a harder game, who would have expected that only new players are allowed to feel the anxiety of not beeing able to get a Fischl or Xiangling C6. Cause Dori, Collei and all other new 4stars will make it very hard to get high constellations.
@@sofieberger8851 You can occasionally grab cons for Fischl, Bennet, Xingqui and Xiangling in the monthly shop though, so even if you don't pull when they appear on banners, newer accs can gradually increase their cons on these chars...
thats defo fun. now imgone when you play c6 onfield faruzan. she got 40% cdmg for herself, additional automatic free charged shot every 3 sec, additonal energy generation. honestly at c6, she excell both support main dps trait(for fun)
@@hulahupjingga yep. I got her C6 after 235 pull and now I'm leveling her to 90 cuz she is so much fun to use outside of abyss as main dps while on high DPS demanding situation I just use her as support for Xiao or Scara.
I became a Xiao main like from 1 and half year ago. And I was looking forward for a support for him. Finally they added an artifact set that’s really hard to get what you want on him and a support that needs her constellations to be broken. I wished they at least gave her the C1 and 3 energy particles on her skill on the house. That would fix the problem. Also they could at least make The Vermillion Hereafter artifact set less RNG for the exact sets that Xiao needs, I’m literally getting multiple healing bonus circlets everyday. I’m starting to think mihoyo hates Xiao or Xiao mains.
I mean I'm mad that while verm IS his BIS, it isn't by any means broken, or at least good enough to make xiao relevant (or stop a good bunch of players from shittin on him nowdays). It is also paired with another artefact set that's good for just a few units (if we're generous) and won't work properly with "high" ping. And now his best support is locked behind c6. Before faruzans c6 we might as well run Xiao as a bettery for her. Just why mhy why.....
Wow, this guide is very helpful and very easy to understand. I wonder if this Genshin Impact Content Creator is very calm and collected in his streams!!1 Surely I will learn more about this game because of this very intelligent, respectable, tall individual named Zy0x and I am proud to say I am now one of the no-Ls, PogO, Gayge, and sanest Zy0x viewers, true.
ADHD is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders of childhood. It is usually first diagnosed in childhood and often lasts into adulthood. Children with ADHD may have trouble paying attention, controlling impulsive behaviors (may act without thinking about what the result will be), or be overly active.
I managed to get her C6 and the difference that one constellation makes is absolutely absurd. No joke C6 adds: - Anemo Crit DMG - Consistent and decent grouping - Anemo battery - 100% uptime on anemo resistance shred (A1 passive synergy) - No need to ever use a charge shot. - Pretty much no need to ever use skill either. So you now just press Burst, swap out and get all the benefits, then you're ready to go again with nearly 100% uptime.
We should not expect change but it important for everyone to be aware that we can leave feedback in game by selecting the feedback option in the Paimon menu.
That and/or increase her energy generation at c0, other than to force people to pull for constellations there is zero reason for her to have worser particle generation than Sara when she has the same burst cost
@@ixirion things is, before release, that was how she worked. then they nerfed her support capabilities and increased her dmg because hoyoverse is unable to make a waifu that doesn't deal damage. they had a perfectly good character and split her strenghts to sell more, it's fucking sad.
I see Faruzan as being designed to just make Hoyo more money.... everyone that wanted Wanderer/Scara likely experienced FOMO if they didn't put until they got her to C6. They gated her worth behind a pile of primo's (potentially your hard earned bucks) to just squeeze more money out of her. Smart? Slimy? or a bit of both... you decide. I saw through this more or less immediately and decided to not pull on this banner entirely.
I agree. I pulled for Scara because I am tired of the next OP waifubait. He is meh without Faruzan but he destroys hilchurls fine without her. I dont care if my Faru is C0. She will get rerun If I still like Scara at that time I can try to get 2-3 const. If not whatever.
Capitalism mate, if there's demands, its free game for those at the top. Unfortunately, unlike US or japan, chinese company are ruthless when it come to this 😅.
This is literally me. I wanted Wanderer and Itto so I planned on pulling both but after getting both of them I have C5 Faruzan and am mortified to pull on the banners of 5 stars I already have 😭
@@kohltalbot You can risk the first 30 pulls after 5 star. even if you get const you have wasted few wishes. Scara const are a bit better. Itto's weapon however turns him into a monster.
Who is Zyox? 🤭😁😜☺️ in math my solution ➗😖, in history my king 👑🥵, in art my canvas 🎨🤗, in science my oxygen 💨😇, in geography my world 🌏🥺, in artifact RNG my crit rolls 🎲😍
as a xiao main saving for alhaitham, thanks so much! this really helped me make my decision not to pull for her (risking my high pity) and use other supports for my xiao instead. nothing better than best advice from the best xiao main :)
i’ve had c1 xiao since the day he got released and i think his best support is still sucrose with thrilling tales in my books, tbh. all he needs is grouping and some er anyway, he’s a beast and any damage boost is just an extra that isn’t even necessary 🥰
dude what team you r playing her in with xiao . don't get me wrong 200er is way too low I m pretty sure you xiao and faruzan b9th are struggling to get their burst up. unless you r play xiao,faruzan,sucrose,Bennett with fav.
@@killerwheelz741 albedo and zhongli if I’m going against multiple mobs. I generally don’t use Xiao on single target fights, but if I do then it’s Raiden and Zhongli.
At C6 4pc tenacity becomes a very viable choice for her since the vortexes deal elemental skill damage so you'll have 100% uptime on the atk% buff while her burst is active.
See me personally I'd change up her C6 constellation: we keep the Crit DMG buff to fall in line with Gorou C6 (at max value) and Sara C6, while the other remaining parts of that existing constellation get transferred to either other parts of her constellations or just flat-out apart of her C0 kit. The real winner for her C6 would be that her burst moves either based on the position of the most recently damaged enemy or it tracks your character's movement while still maintaining that (weird) triangular formation. Both sound good, so I put them there. Thoughts?
I got her c6 only because I had been saving for Wanderer and Kokomi and their banners came together. So I got tons of Faruzan copies. This video reallly helps figure out how to build her after c6, thanks!
By the way, another benefit of c6: you are no longer tied to your ult so hard, because the actual anemo buff part of her ultimate has nahida ultimate radius, so you pretty much have it all the time. And with c6 when you fire skill arrow, it shreds anemo which doesnt stack with ulti, so you dont care if ult hits enemyes.
I personally like this video and find it really really helpful. I especially like the comparison between c2 and c6 in every section, coz let's face it, not everybody can hit c6 immediately. Some might be stuck in c4 or c5 (like me) So it helps to know what max dmg i can deal with her in c2, but also get an idea on "how will this be different in c6?" Thanks man
And with scara, im using scara faruzan, bennet and thoma, fav on faruzan and thoma. Makes 200/250 er enough which should be very doable (60 for fav bow, 50 for er timepiece and 20 from 2pc emblem + any er substats that you would need.
I've got C3 Faruzan and Scaramouche on the first day of their banner, but because I have no self control (and I saved for him for a long time) now I have C6 Faruzan and C2 Scara. And yes, unfortunately the difference with her constellations is very noticeable. I think she's overall comfortable to use (excluding ER issues) even at C0 but C1 and C2 really enhance that comfort. And then of course C6 is like a patch to her whole kit. I use her with my ER cracked Noblesse that gives 136 on its own and, since I have C6, I could switch Fav for Fading Twilight for more dmg (and because my Fav bows are already used by multiple characters and FT was rotting uselessly). Now I have ~260 ER and next Abyss I'm gonna test if it's not an overkill
I want to ask if you need fav to get enough energy for Xiao (I assume you have him since you went so hard for her c6). If you only have two Anemo, Xiao and Faruzan, does she need fav bow to keep his burst up?
@@mattavarius5119 I didn't really test her with Xiao that much but I think Fav would be best choice in this team. It also depends who are the other teammates, do they have Fav weapons etc.
@@yann6109 Let's say that team is Xiao, Faruzan, Yelan, and Bennett. Would Fav be the best for Faruzan? Or would something like Sac bow be better since it has higher base attack?
@@mattavarius5119 i'd say just use fav honestly because xiao is more energy hungry than scara is, and it's still recommended to give faruzan fav bow even in scara's team. moreso in your team yelan would need the energy particles as well.
this happened to me, pulled because I really wanted Wanderer and he was my first main DPS, then learned Faruzan was super niche and much more powerful at C6, now not sure what to do if I should keep pulling for her, already spent all my primos and only got her at C4
one point worth mentioning on the VV set on faruzan. she only swirls with the special effect of her charged shot and with the initial hit of her ult. not with the subsequent explosions. so at anything other than c6 she would swirl really few times. at c6 the effect procced by teammates would swirl constantly making her even better yet lol
It seemed like Mihoyo likes creating more and more unusable characters. The only usable 4-star character that seemed usable is Layla for her shield. Collei has dendro application problem. Candice requires a lot of uptimes. Dori needs to move in circles to apply electro. And Faruzan has energy, crowd control & charge shot problem. The only last awesome 4-star character is Kuki. With dendro hyperbloom, she really shines as a 4-star on par with Bennett, Xiangling & Xingxiu. My Kuki at level 77 with 794 EM can deal 17k damage per hyperbloom seed.
Please be aware every character has its dedicated ranges in which they also play well. Collei isn't bad when you have her talent. Her c2 (I believe) extends the talent duration. Which makes it super good for burgeon teams and hyperbloom teams. (To be specific CLOSE QUARTERS COMBAT teams. Not mid or long range). You have to think outside the box on some of the new characters. You will be surprised how much different they play when paying attention to their overall performance and ranges. I don't have Faruzan. My sister does. I'll let yall figure her out. So far she's been doing fine at 200ish ER. And helping to buff heiziou (not sure why he wasn't mentioned in the video. ) The other characters are Xinqiu and Kuki. Of course on her file, she's running sac sword. And kuki runs EM. Heizou has Sac Frags. So double the skill usage which adds more energy and adds to his burst as well.
In all honestly I'm running Xiaoden with Faruzan. I don't have Albedo anyways and Faruzan can hold Elegy + 4p VV for Raiden, plus Raiden actually likes her high burst cost. Not sure how viable this team is but it's fun at least
Im a F2P players except specifically for Wanderer (I got him 😊) and I was so upset I didn't roll a single Faruzan on his banner the ONE time I whaled! (I spent 20 bucks)
I only just used Bennett a few months ago and raised him to level 90 + C1, and many people say "don't activate his C6, because that stops reactions from happening". I just got Faruzan today from the Sumeru event, and looks like I'm gonna have to beat up "Light Guiding Tetrahedron" 20 times to get Faruzan to level 90, then do a lot of talent grinding for her and then get an artefact set for her. That's gonna take a while. And I still haven't started using Sucrose yet, and Sucrose is at C3.
*For F2P and low spenders, the only real option is to not pull for her C6. A C0 copy is arguably okay.* I've been playing since the start of the game, with both WM and BP. While I have gotten many 4 star characters to C6, Fischl, who I've had since the start of the game via the Venti Banner, would still only be C5 via the Gacha system (I only got her to C6 because of the first event with her, and the summer event). For the banners I've pulled on, Venti's first is the only one she was rate up on for me. That means, unless Faruzan (and Sara) are on other banners than their "intended" 5 star OR you plan to go beyond C0 with that particular 5 star, do not count on *ever* seeing her get to C6 on your account. Especially now that the summon pool is more deeply diluted, and MHY shows no signs of changing this method, because it makes a lot of money. You certainly can get lucky: I've had some characters go from c1 or c2 to C6 in 90 pulls. But in 90 pulls I've also pulled literally no copies of a character. One whale spent 80k+ primos for a C6 of Faruzan. If you are not a whale or mega lucky, feel free to ignore her completely. Exception being that you just like her and want to use her (which is absolutely acceptable). But as far as value goes pre-C6, she's not worth a ton of resources since what she does is so meh and very dependent on high stat gear. But that's just my opinion.
@@Volair Thank you :) However I am already at 69 pity. So I prefer Dehya, Shenhe or even Mika before that. I got however C5 Gorou if he drops to C6 somehow I am changing to GEO main XDDD
I never even noticed the energy problem- I run her in a team with Zhongli who is on Fav and herself also of Fav with 230 ER (emblem, I just assumed I would want her burst as often as possible) so it really just... never occurred to me. Heck I had more problems with Wanderer's recharge than Faruzans. But looking at the stats, it really does makes sense that she's got an energy problem. Huh. Nice to know.
I do not have an anemo dps, Faruzan was my first anemo character gotten from standard. Now, she's C6, with no dps to support so I use her in my freeze team as a grouper lmao
tbh with you this is the issue with hoyo Making these new 4* characters with lack of function in alot of teams, when faruzan came out i wanted to actually play her with a reaction based team but figured out she only caters to anemo dps's Lile xiao... But tbh i already have better characters that can fill that roll... so if i build her odk what i'd be building her for exactly.... she litrally just sits in my character archive and does nothing...
I see a lot of the content creators say that she's good at C0 and that's not true. Yes Sara and Gorou is good at C0 since their base kit works fine with inconvenience but faruzan is an another level. She also need so much investment to be viable unlike Sara or Gorou.
Kinda stupid how mihoyo at first started making signature weapons for the 5*, but now they do the weapons plus characters that almost need to be C6, like Faruzan or even Gorou. She's probably the worst character in-game.
The responsible thing would have been for them to spread out those benefits across the Constellations, ofc. But they want money, and so stacking them on C6 is the logical choice if they're trying to get people to commit to more wishes in a single banner. That's sad, but it's also how gatcha mechanics work. One thing for folks to keep in mind is that once a 4 star character's banner has run, they're added to the standard pool and can then be pulled on every subsequent banner and including the standard banner. That is obviously random, but it adds up. For example, I have several C6 4 star characters that I've never pulled on a banner for, because they just keep showing up. Namely Ningguang and Sara, both of which are Level 20 on my account because I have no use for them. Almost all my 4 stars that didn't JUST come out (Dori, Faruzan, Leyla, Candace, Collei, etc.) are high constellation or max cons, and I never wish with them in mind. It's not like the ONLY way to get her cons is to spend big on this banner- between passively getting more cons through chance and the inevitable reruns, patience will pay off for her. Spending now is the only way to get the instant gratification for having her C6 though, which is what people actually want. I get that frustration, but she isn't totally inaccessible just because you don't want to spend big on her right this second, not the way a limited banner 5 star with potential locked behind high constellations would be.
This comment is very helpful thank you ;-; as an anemo dps enjoyer its hard for me not to feel pressured to keep pulling for faruzan cons, when im also saving for chars like raiden. youre right tho, just needs more patience!
@@liahbobita I have a fully kitted out Xiao and just pulled for Wanderer and am building him now, so I hear you. I got very lucky so I landed a couple cons of her, but I'm probably going to wait until I have some other characters more rounded out before I commit to building her. Hopefully, by then, she'll be even closer to C6. If she isn't, -oh well, she will be eventually.
What if BROKEN but not actually in a good way (like Xingqiu) but in a way that needs a lot of FIXING? I guess she is one of those characters. And since she is Anemo Gorou, unless you use either Wanderer or Xiao, there is no point in using her...
@@CommentPositionInformer and DPS Ventis, like me. I run her with Xiao, Scara, Venti, Heizou etc. and she feels really good. Plus, there's bound to be more anemo characters who can benefit from her.
@@ChristianDoretti No he is not. He provides less dmg, has less dmg. has no grouping, restricts you to 3 Geo units, cant swirl etc. However Itto is better than Scara :)
Thank you! This video is very helpful! Especially now with the re release of Wanderer banner and Faruzan now on both banners I managed to get a c6 Faruzan without trying.
I have Faruzan, she’s at c6. So I will build her soon. Once I’m happy with my build on Wanderer. Also, I got her first at c5 while pulling for wanderer. Then a few days after I said eh let’s try and one pull she what I get and got her c6
Tbh running 3 anemos would be more bearable if there was a good option for single target: Like, Wanderer/Heizou triple anemo with Venti works really well, but is not the same case against bosses or when you run Xiao, who already has good AOE, the only thing that comes remotely close is Heizou. I wouldn't be mad if they just released an anemo Fischl/Albedo, where you have more than 100% uptime off field, but no AOE, would synergize well with Faruzan to the same degree Albedo and Gorou work well, and also work with units that have lots of field time like Cyno or Xiao.
I have a C6 Faruzan (and C6 Scara so his damage is higher too but anyways-) but I used her at C0 before I unlocked her cons and the difference in her damage as well as the damage coming out of Scara from the buffing was INSANE. It's a shame that newer 4*'s are becoming increasingly constellation dependent because not everyone has the capability to spend money just to have a usable support and character in general. Definitely a love/hate relationship lol I agree with you there
was listening to this guide while walking out in the dark and my phone fell out of my pocket into the snow. it was a very weird experience searching for my phone using the disembodied voice of zyox lmao.
Honestly if they just buffed her particle generation, some of this would be solved...they straight up nerfed it during beta so they KNEW what they were doing. Not to mention how, if she's like Gorou and Sara, we are ONLY going to see her on Scara banners, which makes getting her c6 even harder, as the choice then becomes either risk Scara cons (since getting a c6 4* before a c0 5* is almost impossible) or hope that he's running with another character you do want. And if you don't like Scara but want Faruzan for Xiao only, then you're basically screwed. They're trying very hard and very intentionally to make you pull more than you want to just to get a 4*
faruzan is the character that i was really hyped about as an anemo main. had about 130 pulls ready in hopes for c4-c6 after release i got so disappointed not only i barely got her c2 but the gameplay in current abyss had me want to throw my computer out of the window
I got a single Faruzan in 160 wishes, I literally despise her and have PTSD now tbh As a Xiao main I was super excited to finally have someone to pair with him, but yeah... no. Literally not happening until the next few years. I don't even want to bother raising her for Wanderer either.
The thing about "must c6 character" Is that for some people who might think like "oh the dps is my main, I can wait for the support to get c6 in othet time" but for some other people if not most of the player, we already got bored with the carry character before the support got c6, in my case is my raiden, she's strong and fun to play & I still put het for abyss but damn I'm not gonna have a higher hype even when my sara got c6, it's already wayyy back there And yes my sara still not c6 smh
watching this after c6ing her on xianyun's banner (I don't like her but I've built her for xiao since c0, c2 & when i was stuck at c5 for months :") & i realized how smooth my rotations were in my xiao team LOL like i swap into her & her burst was already charged...BEEN MISSING OUT ON THIS FOR SO LONG IT'S BEEN YEARS
Mihoyo, who does not add difficult content to the game to prevent its players from experiencing anxiety, adds faruzan to the game. I'm stuck at c5 and I'm trying hard not to go crazy, thank you Mihoyo.
If the game is that easy why are you pulling faruzan constellations? I like how cringe metaslaves are pretending to be casuals for attention all the fk time
Emblem Favonius, ER Sands Faruzan...thank me later With another Anemo in the team (which you should) she gets her burst back as long as you proc her skill every now and then, no need for the charged shot. She's at 260 ER% and I find it pretty comfy, anything less than that is going to be a pain unfortunately. I use her with Mono-Anemo plus Bennett, made Sucrose an ADC carry and her buffs are pretty significant I'm gagged.
@@dawn973 Wtf, I literally had more 5* than Faruzans. To put it worse, I have no Favonius bow, so I have to use Rust (at least the base atk is better than the Favonius one). Eitherway I want to build her, tho it's a very cursed situation
@@98Alex99 I got her C3 within the banner duration while also getting a Tighnari and a Wanderer, would love to build her but I don't like her enough to want to invest☹
@@dawn973 Sorry for late reply. I recommend you to invest in her. Mine is at lvl.80, rust lvl.70, emblem and Q lvl.6. And my Xiao went from doing 45k to 65k in double pyro team with Bennet (as you can see I not even completed her build). Remember as we don't have C6 it's better to build her with er than dmg because of the poor er she has (idk, it's just so painful to see how with 2 E she only charge 3/10 of her Q). Build her with 200 er or more. Right now I have 176 er because I didn't finish with my artifacts or go with 3 anemo and she will do good.
Since apparently the name of my game is "be attracted solely to support and niche dps" my c6 gorou and c3 faruzan are excellent supports haha. Ive even built layla and candace. Im really enjoying my niche teams. Im surprised how fun faruzan is to play. I love her!
On day 1 I was lucky enough to get C5 Faruzan, and being stuck at C5 real put into perspective how much it sucks for most of her functionality to be locked behind C6 because even at C5, I had to run 300 ER. It wasn't until yesterday that I finally got C6, and she just became a completely different character and seeing how good her c6 was just made me hate her constellation dependency even more.
Zy0x is definitely one of the content creators of all time. His guides are one of the ones I've seen. These clips are the part of my year. Without his videos, my day feels like a day. He's the most person I've ever met. His Xiao artifacts are one of the character builds I've ever seen. Undoubtedly one of the streamers in 2022. -New York Times Seller (2023)
C0:needs so much er,buff doesn’t last for xiao’s whole ult,good buffs C2:still has er problems ,but buff last xiao’s full ult,buffs are still good C4:energy slightly better,good buffs C6: barely any energy problems because the c6 compliments c4. Incredible buffs for anemo. Totally different character
I usually run C6 Faruzan with Elegy and an Atk sands and have enough ER but maybe I should change it to an ER sands to run less ER and more offensive substats on my other artifacts. My Wanderer currently hast 4x Viridescent because the substats are better than with 2x Atk% sets xD but I’m farming for the new set
C6 Faru is OP really glad I got it somehow. Don't even plan on getting Xiao or Wanderer anytime soon, just using her as a carry (yeah she benefits from her own anemo buffs). Golden Troupe is her C6 BIS set. Viridescent Hunt, Er / Atk / C.Dmg
Lost the 50-50 on Scaramouche but got Faruzan upto C6 by the time I got him so that's a win for me! Almost 100k per plunge in overworld on Xiao is nutty and I haven't even built her properly yet to make the most of her kit.
I have her c6 and with 175% er I run her with wanderer or xiao and I have burst EVERY rotation with her. I never understood people’s problems they would complain about until this video gave me insight
Have you tried a 4 pc scholar with sacrificial? For main dps scara w/ jean bennett faruzan sacraficial keeps giving more energy while the set gives you more particles for kills or skills used on hit, and the more energy from the extra skill w/ constellations. Being that they are mostly anemo you get major particles and the restriction of bow/catalyst on the set becomes null due to how much ER is put out from all aforementioned buffs
My Faruzan at C0 with 280 ER was so annoying that I have to remove her from the team and just brought her back when she got C2. Luckily, she is now at C4 and will try to C6 her.
As an Anemo main, I both LOVE and HATE this character lmao
I love how she buffs my Wanderer/Xiao's dmg... but I hate that a LOT of her potential is locked behind C6 (and the insanely high ER requirement at C0)... What are your thoughts?
Small Edit: i wanna emphasize that in 3 anemo comps (w/ sucrose TTDS or Venti) Faruzan even C0 or especially C2 can be good with Xiao and a worthwhile slot in certain Xiao teams if you have enough energy generation (with her becoming rly insane with Xiao at c6, as mentioned --- like actually xiao + faruzan c6 is INSANE).

lol literally was checking if you did a faruzan guide like 20 minutes ago and now it's here)
I got C6 Faruzan, and I actually enjoy playing her more than my C1 Wanderer lol
HoYo locking half of 4* characters kits behind C6 really sucks I hate that we can't have straight up good at C0 4*s anymore
I only heard you talk about Faruzan's C2 and C6. I don't see a section about the others
appreciate the honesty in this video. too many genshin content creators don't account for how the constellation system is designed annoyingly at times. thanks
Also the video title is straight-forward and doesn't exaggerate like "Amazing damage" or "This character is so good" and then you find out it's not really that simple or they mention the flaws of the character way late into the video.
Yeah it's a toxic positivity, not genuine to the audience
Isn’t this what everyone says about Faruzan though? Almost all of the content creators mention that she’s constellation dependent, even when she’s still pretty solid at C0.
I agree with the honesty, BUT I feel like the Genshin content creation community came together on this one. Most ars calling her unplayable at C0 compared to her C6. Zy0x was even more conservative than some saying 320% ER at C0.
Those CC are on hoyoverse paychecks lol, you cant expect objective reviews from them.
She needs Raiden levels of ER. That's a problem. I agree that they put way too much power at c6. They should have spaced it out.
Nice persona 3 profile. I use faruzan with 264 er and favonius bow she not only has burst ready always i also use her white particles for xiao
@rahul d how do you do that? My faruzan build is also over 200er with elegy for the end but still can't use burst on time. Is favonius better for her?
@@Flyhighman77 favonius over elegy like its not even a competition
@@Flyhighman77 yes, favonious not only has ER substat but the passive makes it generate white particles for more energy
@@Flyhighman77 since her energy cost is high as hell (80) make her er upto 220% so just add fav bow and er sand and the rest atk%
If you currently don't have Faruzan C6, ZyOx's recommendation is correct: You need to focus just on ER to get her Burst up since it's what buffs your Anemo DPS's DMG.
Here's a quick tip on how you can build 300% ER on Faruzan:
- Weapon: Favonius Warbow (lv90/+61.3% ER)
- Artifact set: 2pcs Exile 2pcs Emblem (+40% ER).
- Artifact stat:
+ Flower and Feather: 2pcs Exile
+ Sands: ER% (Emblem/51.8% ER)
+ Goblet/Circlet: 1 of 2 is Emblem.
So without counting Artifact stat, you already have 100 (base ER) + 61.3 + 40 + 51.8 = 253.1% ER. You will need 46.9% ER from the 4 artifact pieces (not Sands), which is ~11.7% ER (2/3 artifact rolls with 5* artifact or 3/4 rolls with 4*). This is definitely doable and you can potentially get more to find your comfortable ER spot.
You can go with the full 4pcs Noblesse/Viridescent but it will be a bit tougher to reach 300% ER, and your support like Bennett may run Noblesse already. Remember that any seconds you don't have Faruzan's Burst back after the 20-second cooldown ends means you are losing DPS.
Overall, great video :)
This comment is underrated;)
God this is so helpful, thank you😭

Question if I have her at C3, and running the 4pc viredescent and managed to get up to about 230 ER should I still aim for 300?

I got her c4 somehow in 50 wishes and built her to 70 and was so unimpressed. Sure she gave a great damage buff but it was actually impossible to play her with xiao who already has his own energy problems. I bit the bullet and pulled till her c6, got wanderer in the process, and my god she became a 5* support immediately. No character should have that much power locked behind one constellation
This is similar to me, I got insanely lucky with getting 4 copies of her before pulling any other 4 star and then I got her c6 right before wanderer.
She’s currently still being built at level 60 with 210 energy recharge(favonious/double energy recharge) and she’s amazing. As a Welkin player her and wanderer are going to be amazing and all I really want is a Thoma to pair with bennet
I wont be surprised if every 4 star released after Faruzan is constellation dependent and clunky (maybe), considering how much harder it is to get 4* than 5* . I'm even surprised it took them this long to do this kind of aggressive monetization, though they did do this for some characters like C1 Hu Tao (which shouldn't have existed in the first place, and was Cleary a "create the problem sell the solution" type of scheme).

Finally they added an artifact set that’s really hard to get what you want on him and a support that needs her constellations to be broken. I wished they at least gave her the C1 and 3 energy particles on her skill on the house. That would fix the problem. Also they could at least make The Vermillion Hereafter artifact set less RNG for the exact sets that Xiao needs, I’m literally getting multiple healing bonus circlets everyday.

What can Hoyoverse easily do in this situation? Just decrease her burst energy cost. That'll fix half of her problem.
move her C6 procs to her A4 passive. Nerf her dmg but increase her energy generation etc.
That and/or increase her energy generation at c0, other than to force people to pull for constellations there is zero reason for her to have worser particle generation than Sara when she has the same burst cost
There are a lot of easy solutions to fix this character. And Hoyo will ignore every single one
@@ixirion things is, before release, that was how she worked. then they nerfed her support capabilities and increased her dmg because hoyoverse is unable to make a waifu that doesn't deal damage. they had a perfectly good character and split her strenghts to sell more, it's fucking sad.
I see Faruzan as being designed to just make Hoyo more money.... everyone that wanted Wanderer/Scara likely experienced FOMO if they didn't put until they got her to C6. They gated her worth behind a pile of primo's (potentially your hard earned bucks) to just squeeze more money out of her. Smart? Slimy? or a bit of both... you decide. I saw through this more or less immediately and decided to not pull on this banner entirely.
I agree. I pulled for Scara because I am tired of the next OP waifubait. He is meh without Faruzan but he destroys hilchurls fine without her. I dont care if my Faru is C0. She will get rerun If I still like Scara at that time I can try to get 2-3 const. If not whatever.

Capitalism mate, if there's demands, its free game for those at the top. Unfortunately, unlike US or japan, chinese company are ruthless when it come to this 😅.

Your team has to have other fav users because even against mobs, 200 is simply not enough.
At C6 4pc tenacity becomes a very viable choice for her since the vortexes deal elemental skill damage so you'll have 100% uptime on the atk% buff while her burst is active.
See me personally I'd change up her C6 constellation: we keep the Crit DMG buff to fall in line with Gorou C6 (at max value) and Sara C6, while the other remaining parts of that existing constellation get transferred to either other parts of her constellations or just flat-out apart of her C0 kit. The real winner for her C6 would be that her burst moves either based on the position of the most recently damaged enemy or it tracks your character's movement while still maintaining that (weird) triangular formation. Both sound good, so I put them there. Thoughts?
I got her c6 only because I had been saving for Wanderer and Kokomi and their banners came together. So I got tons of Faruzan copies. This video reallly helps figure out how to build her after c6, thanks!
that 80 energy cost on her burst is literally the worst nerf on her.

By the way, another benefit of c6: you are no longer tied to your ult so hard, because the actual anemo buff part of her ultimate has nahida ultimate radius, so you pretty much have it all the time. And with c6 when you fire skill arrow, it shreds anemo which doesnt stack with ulti, so you dont care if ult hits enemyes.
My friend challenge me to pull everytime i hear "c6" and "energy recharge" while watching this video, i took it,
and now i have c17 faruzan.
I personally like this video and find it really really helpful.
I especially like the comparison between c2 and c6 in every section, coz let's face it, not everybody can hit c6 immediately. Some might be stuck in c4 or c5 (like me)
So it helps to know what max dmg i can deal with her in c2, but also get an idea on "how will this be different in c6?"
Thanks man
She’s only bearable with Heizhou with his low energy requirement and decent energy part drop
And with scara, im using scara faruzan, bennet and thoma, fav on faruzan and thoma. Makes 200/250 er enough which should be very doable (60 for fav bow, 50 for er timepiece and 20 from 2pc emblem + any er substats that you would need.
I've got C3 Faruzan and Scaramouche on the first day of their banner, but because I have no self control (and I saved for him for a long time) now I have C6 Faruzan and C2 Scara. And yes, unfortunately the difference with her constellations is very noticeable. I think she's overall comfortable to use (excluding ER issues) even at C0 but C1 and C2 really enhance that comfort. And then of course C6 is like a patch to her whole kit.
I use her with my ER cracked Noblesse that gives 136 on its own and, since I have C6, I could switch Fav for Fading Twilight for more dmg (and because my Fav bows are already used by multiple characters and FT was rotting uselessly). Now I have ~260 ER and next Abyss I'm gonna test if it's not an overkill

Same. I have C948308954 Gorou and Yanfei both and only C2 Faruzan after 320 pulls.
one point worth mentioning on the VV set on faruzan. she only swirls with the special effect of her charged shot and with the initial hit of her ult. not with the subsequent explosions. so at anything other than c6 she would swirl really few times. at c6 the effect procced by teammates would swirl constantly making her even better yet lol
It seemed like Mihoyo likes creating more and more unusable characters. The only usable 4-star character that seemed usable is Layla for her shield. Collei has dendro application problem. Candice requires a lot of uptimes. Dori needs to move in circles to apply electro. And Faruzan has energy, crowd control & charge shot problem. The only last awesome 4-star character is Kuki. With dendro hyperbloom, she really shines as a 4-star on par with Bennett, Xiangling & Xingxiu. My Kuki at level 77 with 794 EM can deal 17k damage per hyperbloom seed.
Please be aware every character has its dedicated ranges in which they also play well. Collei isn't bad when you have her talent. Her c2 (I believe) extends the talent duration. Which makes it super good for burgeon teams and hyperbloom teams. (To be specific CLOSE QUARTERS COMBAT teams. Not mid or long range).
You have to think outside the box on some of the new characters. You will be surprised how much different they play when paying attention to their overall performance and ranges.
I don't have Faruzan. My sister does. I'll let yall figure her out. So far she's been doing fine at 200ish ER. And helping to buff heiziou (not sure why he wasn't mentioned in the video. ) The other characters are Xinqiu and Kuki. Of course on her file, she's running sac sword. And kuki runs EM. Heizou has Sac Frags. So double the skill usage which adds more energy and adds to his burst as well.
In all honestly I'm running Xiaoden with Faruzan. I don't have Albedo anyways and Faruzan can hold Elegy + 4p VV for Raiden, plus Raiden actually likes her high burst cost. Not sure how viable this team is but it's fun at least
I'm currently running a main DPS Heizou team with Faruzan, Raiden, and Bennett.
Not a xiao main, but you guys deserved better ...
Im a F2P players except specifically for Wanderer (I got him 😊) and I was so upset I didn't roll a single Faruzan on his banner the ONE time I whaled! (I spent 20 bucks)

I only just used Bennett a few months ago and raised him to level 90 + C1, and many people say "don't activate his C6, because that stops reactions from happening".
I just got Faruzan today from the Sumeru event, and looks like I'm gonna have to beat up "Light Guiding Tetrahedron" 20 times to get Faruzan to level 90, then do a lot of talent grinding for her and then get an artefact set for her. That's gonna take a while.
And I still haven't started using Sucrose yet, and Sucrose is at C3.
*For F2P and low spenders, the only real option is to not pull for her C6. A C0 copy is arguably okay.*
I've been playing since the start of the game, with both WM and BP. While I have gotten many 4 star characters to C6, Fischl, who I've had since the start of the game via the Venti Banner, would still only be C5 via the Gacha system (I only got her to C6 because of the first event with her, and the summer event). For the banners I've pulled on, Venti's first is the only one she was rate up on for me. That means, unless Faruzan (and Sara) are on other banners than their "intended" 5 star OR you plan to go beyond C0 with that particular 5 star, do not count on *ever* seeing her get to C6 on your account. Especially now that the summon pool is more deeply diluted, and MHY shows no signs of changing this method, because it makes a lot of money.
You certainly can get lucky: I've had some characters go from c1 or c2 to C6 in 90 pulls. But in 90 pulls I've also pulled literally no copies of a character. One whale spent 80k+ primos for a C6 of Faruzan. If you are not a whale or mega lucky, feel free to ignore her completely. Exception being that you just like her and want to use her (which is absolutely acceptable). But as far as value goes pre-C6, she's not worth a ton of resources since what she does is so meh and very dependent on high stat gear. But that's just my opinion.
Your opinion sounds legit :) Also in 140 pulls I got... C0 Faruzan XDD

I see a lot of the content creators say that she's good at C0 and that's not true. Yes Sara and Gorou is good at C0 since their base kit works fine with inconvenience but faruzan is an another level. She also need so much investment to be viable unlike Sara or Gorou.
Kinda stupid how mihoyo at first started making signature weapons for the 5*, but now they do the weapons plus characters that almost need to be C6, like Faruzan or even Gorou.
She's probably the worst character in-game.
The responsible thing would have been for them to spread out those benefits across the Constellations, ofc. But they want money, and so stacking them on C6 is the logical choice if they're trying to get people to commit to more wishes in a single banner. That's sad, but it's also how gatcha mechanics work.
One thing for folks to keep in mind is that once a 4 star character's banner has run, they're added to the standard pool and can then be pulled on every subsequent banner and including the standard banner. That is obviously random, but it adds up. For example, I have several C6 4 star characters that I've never pulled on a banner for, because they just keep showing up. Namely Ningguang and Sara, both of which are Level 20 on my account because I have no use for them. Almost all my 4 stars that didn't JUST come out (Dori, Faruzan, Leyla, Candace, Collei, etc.) are high constellation or max cons, and I never wish with them in mind.
It's not like the ONLY way to get her cons is to spend big on this banner- between passively getting more cons through chance and the inevitable reruns, patience will pay off for her. Spending now is the only way to get the instant gratification for having her C6 though, which is what people actually want. I get that frustration, but she isn't totally inaccessible just because you don't want to spend big on her right this second, not the way a limited banner 5 star with potential locked behind high constellations would be.
This comment is very helpful thank you ;-; as an anemo dps enjoyer its hard for me not to feel pressured to keep pulling for faruzan cons, when im also saving for chars like raiden. youre right tho, just needs more patience!
Just make her lv stat ER, her burst cost 60 or 70 and give her particles on cast instead of chargeshot.
@@liahbobita I have a fully kitted out Xiao and just pulled for Wanderer and am building him now, so I hear you. I got very lucky so I landed a couple cons of her, but I'm probably going to wait until I have some other characters more rounded out before I commit to building her. Hopefully, by then, she'll be even closer to C6. If she isn't, -oh well, she will be eventually.
i always feel constellated after watching a zy0nix video
What if BROKEN but not actually in a good way (like Xingqiu) but in a way that needs a lot of FIXING? I guess she is one of those characters. And since she is Anemo Gorou, unless you use either Wanderer or Xiao, there is no point in using her...
Or Heizou. Also saw some DPS Kazuhas saying she is good.
@@CommentPositionInformer and DPS Ventis, like me. I run her with Xiao, Scara, Venti, Heizou etc. and she feels really good. Plus, there's bound to be more anemo characters who can benefit from her.
@@CommentPositionInformer I totally forgot about Heizou! Not used to having 4 star main DPS...
Gorou is better than her and he is still very niche lol
@@ChristianDoretti No he is not. He provides less dmg, has less dmg. has no grouping, restricts you to 3 Geo units, cant swirl etc. However Itto is better than Scara :)
Thank you! This video is very helpful! Especially now with the re release of Wanderer banner and Faruzan now on both banners I managed to get a c6 Faruzan without trying.
another thing abt faruzan is that she's actually a pretty good support for heizou!
I have Faruzan, she’s at c6. So I will build her soon. Once I’m happy with my build on Wanderer. Also, I got her first at c5 while pulling for wanderer. Then a few days after I said eh let’s try and one pull she what I get and got her c6
I imagine faruzan mains will be a true menace in co-op
Tbh running 3 anemos would be more bearable if there was a good option for single target:
Like, Wanderer/Heizou triple anemo with Venti works really well, but is not the same case against bosses or when you run Xiao, who already has good AOE, the only thing that comes remotely close is Heizou.
I wouldn't be mad if they just released an anemo Fischl/Albedo, where you have more than 100% uptime off field, but no AOE, would synergize well with Faruzan to the same degree Albedo and Gorou work well, and also work with units that have lots of field time like Cyno or Xiao.
I have a C6 Faruzan (and C6 Scara so his damage is higher too but anyways-) but I used her at C0 before I unlocked her cons and the difference in her damage as well as the damage coming out of Scara from the buffing was INSANE. It's a shame that newer 4*'s are becoming increasingly constellation dependent because not everyone has the capability to spend money just to have a usable support and character in general. Definitely a love/hate relationship lol I agree with you there
was listening to this guide while walking out in the dark and my phone fell out of my pocket into the snow. it was a very weird experience searching for my phone using the disembodied voice of zyox lmao.
Faruzan needs a legitimate buff like zhongli tbh, her kit is so fuckig problematic that its even comparable to xinyan
I just got Faruzan today and I remembered that the community is talking about 'Zyox Xiao' here and there whenever Xiao or anemo support is mentioned
And here I am
Faruzan is definitely a support.
Currently one of the support in game
ive been waiting for this, Thank you!
hii zy0x love your videos, any chance you could make another best teams video or atleast abyss guides??
Honestly if they just buffed her particle generation, some of this would be solved...they straight up nerfed it during beta so they KNEW what they were doing.
Not to mention how, if she's like Gorou and Sara, we are ONLY going to see her on Scara banners, which makes getting her c6 even harder, as the choice then becomes either risk Scara cons (since getting a c6 4* before a c0 5* is almost impossible) or hope that he's running with another character you do want. And if you don't like Scara but want Faruzan for Xiao only, then you're basically screwed. They're trying very hard and very intentionally to make you pull more than you want to just to get a 4*
faruzan is the character that i was really hyped about as an anemo main. had about 130 pulls ready in hopes for c4-c6
after release i got so disappointed not only i barely got her c2 but the gameplay in current abyss had me want to throw my computer out of the window
I got a single Faruzan in 160 wishes, I literally despise her and have PTSD now tbh
As a Xiao main I was super excited to finally have someone to pair with him, but yeah... no. Literally not happening until the next few years. I don't even want to bother raising her for Wanderer either.
But remember genshin is easy I 36* with only starter 4*🙄
gigachad..
The thing about "must c6 character" Is that for some people who might think like "oh the dps is my main, I can wait for the support to get c6 in othet time" but for some other people if not most of the player, we already got bored with the carry character before the support got c6, in my case is my raiden, she's strong and fun to play & I still put het for abyss but damn I'm not gonna have a higher hype even when my sara got c6, it's already wayyy back there
And yes my sara still not c6 smh
Keep up the great work man 💖👍👍
watching this after c6ing her on xianyun's banner (I don't like her but I've built her for xiao since c0, c2 & when i was stuck at c5 for months :") & i realized how smooth my rotations were in my xiao team LOL like i swap into her & her burst was already charged...BEEN MISSING OUT ON THIS FOR SO LONG IT'S BEEN YEARS
Mihoyo, who does not add difficult content to the game to prevent its players from experiencing anxiety, adds faruzan to the game. I'm stuck at c5 and I'm trying hard not to go crazy, thank you Mihoyo.
If the game is that easy why are you pulling faruzan constellations?
I like how cringe metaslaves are pretending to be casuals for attention all the fk time
@@Zarya. If you followed the game a little bit, you would know that fuck wandererr has nothing to do with the meta.
Them forked tongue people smh
she’s speculated to be a free character in 3.6! i’m stuck at c4 unfortunately though
Emblem Favonius, ER Sands Faruzan...thank me later
With another Anemo in the team (which you should) she gets her burst back as long as you proc her skill every now and then, no need for the charged shot. She's at 260 ER% and I find it pretty comfy, anything less than that is going to be a pain unfortunately. I use her with Mono-Anemo plus Bennett, made Sucrose an ADC carry and her buffs are pretty significant I'm gagged.
I got 1 faruzan after wishing 78 times, gonna note this down ✍
@@dawn973 Wtf, I literally had more 5* than Faruzans. To put it worse, I have no Favonius bow, so I have to use Rust (at least the base atk is better than the Favonius one). Eitherway I want to build her, tho it's a very cursed situation
@@98Alex99 I got her C3 within the banner duration while also getting a Tighnari and a Wanderer, would love to build her but I don't like her enough to want to invest☹
@@dawn973 Sorry for late reply. I recommend you to invest in her. Mine is at lvl.80, rust lvl.70, emblem and Q lvl.6. And my Xiao went from doing 45k to 65k in double pyro team with Bennet (as you can see I not even completed her build). Remember as we don't have C6 it's better to build her with er than dmg because of the poor er she has (idk, it's just so painful to see how with 2 E she only charge 3/10 of her Q). Build her with 200 er or more. Right now I have 176 er because I didn't finish with my artifacts or go with 3 anemo and she will do good.
c0 faruzan feels like both a head pat and a back hand from hoyoverse
Since apparently the name of my game is "be attracted solely to support and niche dps" my c6 gorou and c3 faruzan are excellent supports haha. Ive even built layla and candace. Im really enjoying my niche teams. Im surprised how fun faruzan is to play. I love her!
On day 1 I was lucky enough to get C5 Faruzan, and being stuck at C5 real put into perspective how much it sucks for most of her functionality to be locked behind C6 because even at C5, I had to run 300 ER. It wasn't until yesterday that I finally got C6, and she just became a completely different character and seeing how good her c6 was just made me hate her constellation dependency even more.
Zy0x is definitely one of the content creators of all time. His guides are one of the ones I've seen. These clips are the part of my year. Without his videos, my day feels like a day. He's the most person I've ever met. His Xiao artifacts are one of the character builds I've ever seen. Undoubtedly one of the streamers in 2022. -New York Times Seller (2023)
LETS GO, WAS WAITING FOR IT
C0:needs so much er,buff doesn’t last for xiao’s whole ult,good buffs
C2:still has er problems ,but buff last xiao’s full ult,buffs are still good
C4:energy slightly better,good buffs
C6: barely any energy problems because the c6 compliments c4. Incredible buffs for anemo. Totally different character
Went from C3 to C6 while getting nahida and now going for Xianyun. Happy to be here. 😌
Her C6 seems comparable in power level to Xingqui C6. This isn’t new and I expect it to happen occasionally going forward.
my c0 xingqiu was carrying me hard with energy recharge and a sac sword
Easily annihilated all of Timmie's pigeons. S tier character.
rewatching this now that i have c6....
Only true Zy0x fans know that this is actually called Fengussy review.
I usually run C6 Faruzan with Elegy and an Atk sands and have enough ER but maybe I should change it to an ER sands to run less ER and more offensive substats on my other artifacts. My Wanderer currently hast 4x Viridescent because the substats are better than with 2x Atk% sets xD but I’m farming for the new set
Faruzan is literally "Corpa it's just business" character lmao
i love your takeys
sameee his takeys are so useful
yep he gives the best jenshin impact takeys true
C6 Faru is OP really glad I got it somehow. Don't even plan on getting Xiao or Wanderer anytime soon, just using her as a carry (yeah she benefits from her own anemo buffs). Golden Troupe is her C6 BIS set. Viridescent Hunt, Er / Atk / C.Dmg
Lost the 50-50 on Scaramouche but got Faruzan upto C6 by the time I got him so that's a win for me!
Almost 100k per plunge in overworld on Xiao is nutty and I haven't even built her properly yet to make the most of her kit.
I have her c6 and with 175% er
I run her with wanderer or xiao and I have burst EVERY rotation with her.
I never understood people’s problems they would complain about until this video gave me insight
Have you tried a 4 pc scholar with sacrificial? For main dps scara w/ jean bennett faruzan sacraficial keeps giving more energy while the set gives you more particles for kills or skills used on hit, and the more energy from the extra skill w/ constellations. Being that they are mostly anemo you get major particles and the restriction of bow/catalyst on the set becomes null due to how much ER is put out from all aforementioned buffs
She doesn't proc any energy if you do her E-Skill again, she got that timer like Ningguang E that only proc energy for every 5 seconds or something
@@whitecheeze_rf the set procs the energy in place
My Faruzan at C0 with 280 ER was so annoying that I have to remove her from the team and just brought her back when she got C2. Luckily, she is now at C4 and will try to C6 her.
she’s like the sara to raiden, but both need c6 💀
Sara is usable at c2, and raiden does not rly need her
@Luiza Minasyan faruzan is also usable at c2, you just need 250+ energy recharge plus either venti or another fav weilder. Which is alot but doable
Yeah but raiden doesnt need sara to be good, scara needs faruzan to be mid
@@Kat-37i9 well with that logic dori is also usable, you just need a battery for her and another battery for the battery. which is a lot, but doable
FINALLY u posted her guide
