- I was going to make this video when Kaveh got a rerun, but apparently Hoyoverse is never going to rerun him. So I did it now instead. Surely I can get Kaveh to work as intended, right?
I will be occasionally streaming non-genshin stuffs on my Twitch! (maybe, my internet kinda garbo rn) / soruruna

Dude was abandoned by his father at early age and mother at later age. And hoyo also abandoning him. he's cursed😢 give the dude some break

No wonder he went on to destroy the world.
As someone who C6-ed Kaveh on release and has been using him in bloom, I approve of this video.
Babygirl deserves recognition
Same but sadly I haven’t been using him 😭 I feel bad now since he hasn’t got a rate-up since he was released but I had Tighnari and Alhaitham way before him and while I could improve their artifacts they’re still hitting strong
@@DG_Toti i usually use him as driver for Nilou. Hydro drivers like Kokomi feel less consistent for me, but Kaveh/Nahida/Xingqiu/Nilou team? Very tanky despite self-damage with no proper healer, and rotation flows pretty naturally.
And in good AoE abysses forgoing Nilou is also an option w someone like off-field EM Kokomi
Yo, same on the C6. Kaveh-Nilou bloom was my first takedown of the local legend in this abyss cycle. His being a claymore that can work with bloom has saved me so many times.
@@anyanPWho do you build with EM in that variant? Does Xingqui need EM or do you only worry about EM on Kaveh?
@@anyanP If only we had more good hydro healers for bloom tbh - I want a 4 star hydro healer / shielder specifically for bloom, like a niche support for Nilou or something 😭😭 then again, her niche support would be dendro probably and she’s already a niche character herself 😭😭
Dude musta lost his keys to the banner.
sometimes i forget my kaveh isnt the only one in extistence. his crit ratio is like 78/245 rn. seeing other people play him is such a joy
It’s definitely not the only one haha
Did you think he was going to be received so poorly or was it a shock to be one of the people who main him?
Very nice, with enough ER still?
@@Array_EByeah of course it’s not! but it’s still very rare to see people actually play him in my opinion. he’s loved as a character but very often not built
@@xxx0ox0i dont think he’s received poorly, he is fairly popular. But not many people play him because he’s not very good, so to see a content creator play him is always a treat !
On Baizhu and Kaveh's first banner i really wanted both of them. I went almost to pity and lost my 50/50 and then went almost to pity again and got Baizhu, but i didn't get a single Kaveh. He's the only 4 star i don't have. Please... please come home...
i started recently and pulled on standard and got one (1) kaveh and tighnari as well.
then my luck died and i pulled a 10 debate clubs lol
i ended up getting Baizhu before my 1st Kaveh...then i lost my c1 Baizhu 50/50...and still no cons for Kaveh
you know it's a slow patch when you are building Kaveh...stay safe out there
lmaoo
LMFAO best comment
What do you mean by that 🤨
Live Kaveh main reaction: 👁️👁️
While he does feel like a cheap Nilou/Alhaitham in most of the teams he can be used, he's still one of my favorite characters, personality wise, in this game. So I had to build him. So far, my favorite team is a bloom based team:
Kaveh: 4 piece Deepwood, Favonious Greatsword, full EM on artifact.
Xingqiu: usually DPS build
Yelan: usual DPS build
C6 Sacrificial Bow Diona.
The idea is that XQ and Yelan's strong hydro application will keep the hydro aura on the opponents so you can guarantee that Kaveh is the bloom trigger, thus only needing EM on him. XQ also provides resistance to interruption for Kaveh while he's attacking.
Diona's C6 will give him 200 extra EM, that he misses because of the Favonious Greatsword being used as weapon. It's a good balance, because then Kaveh has the opportunity to trigger Fav at least 2 times while on field, helping all the team's ER needs and Diona can keep him alive with her heals/shield
Oo that sounds like a good combo. Too bad my Diona isn't c6... My usual Kaveh team is Kaveh, Xingqui, Nilou, Nahida/Kirara/Baizou (That last slot depends on how dangerous the enemies are). But yeah... I have to build Xingqui with EM on that team since both he and Kaveh are triggering blooms.
Thats a fun idea, will try to remember to try it after I get back from my vacation next week! Feel free to remind if you catch me during one of my streams
A bloom shatter team.
"He feels like a cheap Nilou" but doesn't he work with Nilou??
@@jadecoolness101im pretty sure their different speeds of triggering blooms make it weird to play
at least that’s what i’ve heard
I wanted Kaveh so bad when he was released and I got NOTHING. I've been Kavehless sense and I'm sad.
Same, i got c1 baizhu and 0 bbg😔
I'm the opposite i wanted kaveh so bad i got 1 copy of him and then... never touched him .. at all...i know.. blasphemy...
Soon he will be back, surely! (though we also couldve said that 6 months ago…)
@@Solunerra Praying for his rerun :( Or at least bless me with his presence on standard
i was lucky enough to get kaveh to c4 on the banner... only after getting 4 5 stars and then i ran out of wishes.
Hoyo got scared of the Kaveh Scandal that made him delete things in game.
The cause of that scandal was a real human, not a person in the game.
@@apriljaxon7623nah it was kaveh
👎
I built Kaveh to play burgeon. Deep down I know most of the damage is probably done by Xinqui and Thoma but its alright, cause the only thing I see is Kaveh and some big numbers popping on screen.
Tbh they fk him up by giving dendro vision
His best team is with nilou or bloom and most of the time hydro characters in those team are build as triggerer and full em.
They want kaveh to be bloom trigger plus build full em yet they make the hydro to be better element to do.
If he has hydro vision he would be one of good option for nilou team cus of the buff he give to bloom he trigger
Also why his energy cost is that high when his brust do is only infusion and nothing else
He doesn't work with Nilou because he needs to be the one to burst the bloom seeds and he can't do that to Nilou's special blooms. Unless I'm missing something
@@alexprus7953I think that he can still burst nilou's bloom seeds
@@alexprus7953 that's why being hydro is better cus he doesn't need to brust the seed just need to make the seed since nilou seed brust themselves.
His buff work on the seed he make he doesn't need to brust them.
Yeah I hate his energy cost. Also definitely agree he would be much more interesting as a hydro unit.
@@alexprus7953nilou's passive just makes bloom seeds burst much quicker, their damage is still calculated by whoever created the seed with their reaction. So as long as there is hydro on the enemy and kaveh hits them, kaveh will cause the bloom reaction and the damage will be calculated by his EM, level etc. Just means his skill is kinda useless coz they dont need to be popped quicker
half an hour video about my favourite character by my favourite yapper youtuber. i literally started frothing at the mouth GET OUT OF MY SKINNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! edit: i have kaveh and i put him on verdict because pretty guys have pretty weapons and kaveh is my beautiful babygirl....
This has been bothering me for so long!! Kaveh has joined Eula club 😭 this is the longest since a 4 star has gone since release without a rerun by far. I tried so hard to get him at release and I couldn't and I've been waiting 11 months! Thank you for acknowledging him!
Well not quite the longest, he's at 16 banners since his last rate up, which is really long don't get me wrong. But it is definitely not the top spot, that goes to Gorou with a gap of 21 banners (3.3 - 4.5), then Xinyan with a gap of 18, followed by a tie of Sara, Ningguang and Layla (who is currently still growing that streak) with 17 each an THEN we get Kaveh at currently a 16 banner gap and counting, tying him up with Chongyun. Eula's gap was 27 banners btw, which isn't even the longest by all that much: Albedo got close with 24, and Hu Tao did have a solid 21 gap before her 3.4 rerun.
@@vanthom993 I appreciate you took the time to compile that! :) I did say "the longest a 4 star has gone SINCE RELEASE without a rerun." I did know Gorou went 21 banners between his 3rd and 4th banner appearance, but he's been on multiple banners. Kaveh has only shown up once and then disappeared. (I know he's on standard but 11 months later, I still don't have one)
This makes me realize how lucky I am to have gotten him on the standard banner not that long ago
@@fatpotato317 it's gotten to the point where every single 4 star I get (except when its guaranteed to be an on banner character/weapon) I think "could've been kaveh". C9 dori? Could've been kaveh. 10th eye of perception? Could've been kaveh? C3 Amber? Cool but like... Could've been kaveh! 😭😂
@@fatpotato317 congrats though!!! 😁
Kaveh is hands-down my favorite character and this video makes my heart SING. I really like your build!! My Ka-BLOOM team is C2 Nahida with her sig, Nilou, Kokomi, and of course C6 Kaveh. 💚💚💚 I went all out for him and it's so fun to let him go ham with his burst.
How has my boy never gotten a rerun?
Wall of text below regarding the text pop-up in the video:
I cutout a whole rambly section talking about how Furinas C2 and Nahida C2 makes little difference for this video (it was too long and too off topic from just doin Kaveh things so I didn't find it worth including, and Id rather keep my videos a bit more focused on the fun stuff). But if you care, below is basically what I cut out:
Xianyun is already so good of a healer with Furina that C2 is just getting dmg% sooner with her, but the dmg% is still the same total value, and with an invested Xianyun you get max dmg% quickly regardless. C2 Furina makes a difference for non-ideal healers paired with Furina, not ones like Xianyun who has healing exactly made to synergize with Furina. I disclose when I am trying to abuse Furinas C2 when it is relevant. In this video it is irrelevant enough that I decided it wasn't even worth including in the video. C1 Furina is more relevant than C2 in this case, but I digress.
Pertaining Nahida C2: we aren't using Electro, which means no 30% def reduction. The only value Nahida C2 is then giving is the blooms critting. This is 20% fixed crit rate with 100% crit damage, which is a 20% overall increase to bloom dmg in this team. That may seem big, but this team is not doing entirely bloom damage--it is not a Nilou team--so it is not a 20% team DPS upgrade. If the bloom damage is doing 50% of the team damage in this video, then it means Nahida C2 is only increasing the team DPS by about 10%. But that is only IF bloom damage was 50% of the team DPS. I've not done hardcore tracking of what percentage of team DPS the bloom dmg was, but I highly doubt it was 50% (the exact % would depend on context quite a bit). Point being, Nahida C2 is realistically at best a 5-10% team DPS increase in practice. It makes more of a perceptual difference in this video than it actually does for the teams performance. So if all other factors were the same for you on your account trying to play this team, but you don't have Nahida C2, you would expect abyss clears to potentially take a few seconds longer. It may be the difference between having to optimize your play a bit more than I had to (or require having a stronger team the other abyss side), but it is not the difference between being able to clear at all. Sometimes Nahida C2 can make a significant difference, but in this video it (and Furina C2)didn't, hence my decision to cut my 5 minutes of rambling about this from the video.
I'm saying all this for anyone who may overestimate the significance of some of these constellations sometimes. The nature of supportive constellations is that they aren't always relevant. I'd turn them off if I could for videos to prove this, but I cannot. Ultimately, having Xianyun, Furina, and Nahida at all to make this Kaveh team function is of FAR more importance than the minor upgrade of having a couple constellations. It is fun to see blooms crit of course though lol. I am actually glad I didn't end up with Xianyun C2/her weapon in hindsight too, as that WOULD make a meaningful difference. Praise the gacha gods for at least keeping that more relatable for me lol.
Highly appreciate the Furina info - my use of her is almost 100% with Xianyun and understanding that is going to save me pulling for C2.
It would be cool to take off con's and it would only make them more money
I was about to comment on Xianyun C2 when I noticed the last part I thought you had that one too because you had C1 with her second skill charge
I think levelling him from 80 to 90 makes a significant difference because bloom is a transformative reaction and scales by level
furina is the one doing the blooms in this comp
kaveh still does some blooms but yeah ur right
I clear Abyss with Kaveh and Nilou, it's really comfy that Kaveh is the only one who heals from bloom, i like him chilling out in the sea of Nilou's bombs with full HP while enemies die lol
The Kaveh + Furina + Nahida + Cloud retainer team is literally my team in the overworld and I was so happy when I cooked it by my self. Overall it feels very fun to play but I will say that you need a lot of investment into it because my characters from it are mostly half-built so I am having a hard time fighting bosses.
Yeah its definitely not low investment with all the ER needs and what not lol
it's funny because despite him not having a rerun, he has jumpscared me three times on random banners so I have already built him and used him in bloom comps lol
Our booyyyy!!! I also want to see what a C6 Kaveh can do. I hope Hoyo lets him out of the basement soon 😂
as a Kaveh main, his best team is a C6 Kaveh bloom team (build EM EM crit, favonius, no er subs, just crit and EM) and teams is Xingqiu, Fischl and C2 Nahida, doing same damage as a Burgeon Thoma so pretty good for aoe on abyss, he's doing bloom and aggravate with decently high damage
Kaveh has a great design I hope he gets buffed
i see kaveh in thumbnail i click. simple as that. but seriously, nice video! i really enjoyed your approach building teams around his gimmick. personally, used him since his release in a nilou teamcomp w/ baizhu and furina. yes, very high investment across the board, but he can easily clear abbyss 12 and that makes me happy~
I really want Kaveh, started the game almost a year ago and he still has not been on a banner. Thanks for the video, really interesting and fun team!
Id be surprised if he didnt get a rerun in 4.6, but I was also surprised he didnt get a rerun this patch, so who knows lol. Hopefully you can get him soon!
@@Solunerra I speculate he will get a rerun in 4.8 since Nilou is speculated to also rerun then. Ofc, if Mihoyo is not going to bamboozle us.
omg i laughed so hard, this is my exact favorite overworld/exploration team (healing, good mobility and walking on water, nahidas skill and a claymore is just so comfy)!! plunge kaveh for the win truly.
i'm personally very pleased he hasn't been on these recent banners because i WILL pull for his c6 and it would be nice if i wanted the 5*s too lol. he's my absolute favorite character in the game and the only 4* i will ever risk it all for
i built him a few weeks ago despite having Alhaitham and i really only built him for fun and he’s very very fun. not great if you’re in seek of damage, but good if you have an end game account and want some fun.
I was actually looking so forward for Kaveh, and they did my boy dirty like this
Thank you for doing the video in the end. I'm really not a fan of Xianyun playstyle but as soon as I can get Furina, I'll try this with another healer like Charlotte or something I suppose.
i’ve actually been using quite a lot lately so it was fun to see which build and team you’re using. might try bloom kaveh too now haha
Kaveh is a pretty fun character, especially whit Nilou.
If you do it correctly, Kaveh whit Xingqiu he becomes FKNG INMORTAL, and it’s not even close.
He could go head on onto the 3 onis in THAT ONE abyss and he just wouldn’t die, and there’s some recordings HAHA.
His problem is that… well… the rest of the team does not have sustain, and going Furina is just suicide most of the time.
And the other problem is that, even tho alongside Nilou he’s BIS, the difference is soooo unnoticeable and the other Nilou teams are MUCH MORE comfortable… well, that speaks for itself.
Even though I became a Kaveh main from a friendship farmer just a few months back, it gives me joy when I see Kaveh mains in coop and I have surprisingly met at least four of them in domains. Kaveh is pretty famous in the windtrace event too. I've had some hilarious interactions with other Kavehs and Alhaithams in windtrace lmao. Especially how people changed to Alhaitham anytime someone uses Kaveh
Just came across your channel and you're now my fav genshin content creator
I love him. Literally just 36* cleared the abbyss with him. My team was Kaveh Spreadbloom - Kaveh, Furina, Fishl and Baizhu. My Kaveh is invested as a spread DPS, he mainly has attack and crit and hes using Beacon.
Love this video! I think a lot of people who play genshin treat character building like a jigsaw puzzle in the sense that they think there's one "correct" final picture that you should be working towards. I prefer treating it like a box of lego. Sure, maybe it came as a set and there's an intended way to put all the pieces together, but that doesn't mean you can't build something else instead. Idk, I've always thought one of the most enjoyable things about genshin as a game is that you can pretty much clear all the content even while ignoring meta. Like sure, seeing crazy big numbers and one-shotting bosses can be satisfying in its own way, but imo the game is most fun when you just build your favourite characters in whatever way your heart desires bc you can usually figure out weird team comps and synergies to make things work regardless.
Another great off-the-beaten-path video! I like that you used Kaveh in a Bloom team specifically as well as recognizing that he has the advantage of claymore character plunge modifiers. He doesn't feel "tacked on" to this team at all. I hope when he finally reruns, C6 comes home to you quickly and easily.
He’s very good with nilou
He’s able to heal
Himself with blooms so he’s doesn’t need a healer, also his burst gives bloom dmg
Also nilou cores count as bloom cores so all
Bonus kaveh gives still apply
The fact that he was on only 1 banner(as much as I know) and I still have a PERFECT set for him is very sad
Got Kaveh 2 months ago on the standard banner and wanted to build him since then bc I adore him, but I didn’t know HOW to build him. Your video helped me get some inspiration! Unfortunately I skipped Xianyun and Furina, so I guess I still need to improvise 😅
Man this takes me back to when I was cooking with Kaveh lol
He's such a strange case since theoretically he should've been a fridge/freezebloom dps, but his energy needs and his being a claymore user just doesn't allow for it. It's also a really good lesson in bloom priority since if you have Kaveh+hydro, the hydro has bloom priority. If you have Kaveh+hydro+hydro, the bloom priority is back to Kaveh and synergizes with his kit for the most part. And if you leave it at that, you then have the very obvious energy needs that get in the way of him bursting every rotation or having maximized bloom damage. So you bring in a second dendro to help, and then THEY get bloom priority (according to Kaveh mains at the time). Which isn't totally bad on Nahida if you have a 1k EM build on her, but still it devalues Kaveh being on his full EM build...except if you put him on Ocean Hued Clam instead to maximize the heal-to-damage potential lol
Also this might be forbidden knowledge, but I just want to point out if you put Kaveh on a hybrid build then his healing should overcap and help out with Furina fanfare stacks in a not-insignificant way. So...hybrid Kaveh in the future?
I have my Kaveh lvl 90 triple EM on fav and he clears everything in the game with ease! *hides my c1r1 Nilou and r1 Nahida that I use him with* It’s definitely him that’s carrying haha wdym
this makes me want to pull for xianyun for the first time
I feel like Kaveh’s uniqueness is that he self-heals from core damage, so he is, most likely, intended to be a Burgeon driver (as he heals instead of taking dmg)
Sure, he could have a universal dendro bloom damage bonus to facilitate and incentivize his usage outside a cheap Nilou gimmicky or even being outclassed by Baizhu in every form of driving +dendro bonuses. Nonetheless, Architect buddy works the best alongside Thoma + Xingqiu + any other (probably dendro, yaoyao/nahida) in my opinion
This is relatable gameplay skill, lol. I've been playing plunge Chongyun with Xianyun but the circle impact from Chongyun's infusion is annoying, at least Kaveh doesn't have to deal with that. I feel it's quite hard to aim claymore plunges properly especially when you're trying to dash cancel
I was on a break when he released and just recently got lucky and pulled him on the weapon banner. I can't wait to build him ❤
I tried to play as Kaveh + Furina + Thoma + Bai Zhu/Kazuha (depends on situation). Obviously not a meta team but surprisingly comfortable one for exploring and fightings. And i also don't like to build Kaveh with EM - in my opinion, Kaveh is better with standart crit/atk build with gladiator for example
I have him at C6 and i kinda want a nilou bloom team for him
Honestly, I fell in love with Kaveh and Dori’s Charged Attack and built them both off of that.
Kaveh has Skyward Pride, and 4pc Heart of Depths. (Used to play him with Candace, after a while I stopped doing that and just utilizes the 4pc effect only.)
Dori has Favonius Greatsword, and 4pc Shimenawa (I’ve tried other builds before but … this is the one that stuck, and her C6 makes it even funner.)
I decided to build them at the same time, so I ended up making a team of; Kaveh, Dori, Sara, and Yaoyao.
Yaoyao is there for the Dendro Resonance, plus her C1. Sara was there because … my Bennett is C6’d … (no regrets, Pyro rules!) it was a plus since Sara already buffs ATK and can give the team Electro Resonance (plus, as a Bow user, she can shoot the weak points in Ruin Machines, so … yippee!)
SOLUNA MAKING A VIDEO ON MY FAVORITE CHARACTER OF ALL TIME YIPPEEEEEE
I was a Kaveh main, bloom Kaveh main. I miss it so much but Neuvillette stole my heart...
WOW, thanks for the video. I use Kaveh in many cases, but I haven't used this method yet, thanks for the idea.
I hope they let him out of the basement.
why would you NOT love this icon
I think that is less that he's a 10% Nilou she more that he's kinda-sorta Nilou's equivalent of Sara/Gorou/Faruzan/Chevreuse, buffing her off field damage and removing the negative side effects of Bloom.
I've been slowly building Kaveh since I got Ayato, and playing together is so fun especially when I pair them with Furina :D
I saw someone clear abyss using c1 Kaveh bloom without furina or Nahida or Nilou (baizhu + yelan + xingqiu) recently and it inspired me to give him a go on bloom again. I’ve managed to do decent damage using him on a spread plunge team (I have cracked artifacts + nahida) but I like the idea of using him in a way that fits his design…
for some reason i thought this was gonna be a thunder fury kaveh bloom video
i was super wrong
I only managed to get one Kaveh con on his banner and I really want more. I use him in my bloom team in the abyss a lot of the time. Hoyo please bring him back
KAVEH CONTENT
i started playing in december 2023 and kaveh's the 2nd character i ever got and he hasn't left my team since along with kirara who was the first character i pulled LOL
my team is kirara, kaveh, kazuha, and barbara and i really love playing them together :3
As someone who lost chiori's sword to redhorn(yes it's a loss for me because I don't like claymores) at least it fits kaveh's aesthetics.
I always love building characters alongside you, it’s so fun seeing the new perspectives. What if you replaced xianyun with nilou?
Replacing Nahida with Baizhu and Xianyun with Nilou should be a more than functional team (likely better than this one) as far as team dps goes. But that is mostly a team configuration where you happen to be able to utilize Kaveh just by nature of him applying dendro as an on fielder. But Furina should still let you get some decent damage at least, and the team DPS is probably higher, but at the end of the day that would feel far more like a Nilou team to me than a Kaveh team. But its still another way to at least get a little use out of him which is nice
@@Solunerra you have a fair point. I don’t have xianyun or Baishou so I might go for a yaoyao, furina, yaelan, or a nahida, furina, kokomi
Yay Kaveh content, but with signature Soluna team building spice (I now unofficially dub this comp spring bloom). I’ve missed seeing this man so much idk why Hoyo refuses to release him from the basement. I managed to get a 3rd Beacon just for him this past Chronicled, but I still desperately need his cons! Back on debut I only managed to get C0 and had to go past pity to do so, which at least thankfully was a Diluc so I could guarantee his roommate (and teammate cuz I play them together in spread META be damned).
Flash forward to now and I’m at 71 pity (Kuki & Kirara together was too good & I hit Ayato early) and looking at 5* leaks only to see if any are likely to be someone he’d run on and if I can tolerate having that character or if I should sacrifice a few of my savings to reset my pity. So far if the current 4.6 lineup stands precisely as is, I’m gonna hold out. Really REALLY praying he comes 2nd half because that would be a massive *W* for me (or preferably at least 2 for C4 😉).
This video somehow showed up on my algorithm right after I quote-retweeted the Wanderer/Baizhu Phase 2 banner with "Where is Kaveh?", and of course, Kaveh is nowhere to be found
Wanted, Kaveh
-Last seen:
Al haitham' bed
Want to clarify that Nilou multiplies the damage the Bountiful Core does afterward while Kaveh adds his stats directly to the damage. Think of him like Yunjin, Aggravate, Shenhe, or Xianyun. While Nilou multiplies the entire end damage. The cool part about it is that it's one of the few Transformative reactions that can be affected by stats and rolls! Nilou's is definitely stronger as a large multiplier but he does gain a lot of utility with the healing and explosion that most don't especially if paired with an Anemo to bring them in.
He also doesn't have the restriction with team comps so you can throw him in with some unique teams like Kaveh Plunge with Xianyun! I think he's pretty underrated but also he came out on a banner that wasn't the most popular or people were saving and never came back so it makes sense he hasn't really been the most explored. A neat trick was adding two Anemo or Attack speed to the team and still going Bloom.
He also isn't restricted to only doing blooms so he can do HyperBloom, Burning, and Burgeon pretty well! Just wanted to clarify a bit because I do think both Nilou and Kaveh get stuck in the bloom only grouping when they have so many more uses outside of that!
tldr for Nilou her skill applies Hydro asynchronously every 2s and checks to see if there's a Hydro particle. So if you're consuming it consistently its one of the fastest applications and doesn't rely on a pulse or stacking like Kokomi or Xinqiu. That's what makes her great at Bloom! Works great for ensuring there's always a single Hydro particle on every enemy! I used it with my Vape Klee and Furina Xianyun so as soon as I Vape the Hydro Nilou skill sees no Hydro and applies one for the next. Works great for freeze too.
Would love to see you upload a video with other uses for Nilou. I've used it a lot with Hyperbloom to make the blooms since she doesn't react and it just makes them consistently, as well as freeze shatter to freeze them immediately after shatter!
Yay for Kaveh appreciation!!! I farmed Flower of Paradise Lost for Kaveh..... the good thing is that I was able to build Kuki, Scara and Raiden as well. And I also got C1 Baizhu trying for One copy of Kaveh.... he's forever C0 now.....
Whats crazy is the four stars rumored next banner dont include him
See I have Nahida and Furina but I don’t have xianyun, I’m unsure what I should put in the last slot and making teams for him is so confusing. Should I do beidou for spread or kaeya for shatterbloom or is there another character I can use..
I love how you talked extensively about furina, then switched over to kaveh and was like: "Man idk kinda looks swag on him what can I do"
I love using Kaveh! I have two teams that I use.
The first one I thought it was kinda boring, but it's nice actually: Kaveh in Nilou Bloom team. I thought Kaveh would just be a worse Nahida, but actually he's the best Nilou driver (or the most comfortable to play with) because he heals from blooms and has a lot of interruption resistance. I even used him against the Tulpa with this team.
The second one is actually my favorite, and it's pretty similar to your team. I use Kaveh, Fischl, Xianyun and Furina. It's very fun and it uses the most of everyone's kit, imo:
- Kaveh's high MV from the plunges, can still proc blooms (and heal from it), and do Spread damage. Also, his damage is buffed by Xianyun and Furina, just like yours.
- Fischl doesn't usually proc hyperbloom, but her A4 allows to do extra Aggravates for every Quicken Kaveh's do. Her damage is also buffed by Furina.
- Xianyun's buffs matter a lot for Kaveh's damage, and her Anemo AoE for each plunge can sometimes proc Hyperbloom (it's not much, but it's extra damage, that usually is higher than the blooms), and Kaveh's long CD allows more time spent on Xianyun, so I can actually use her skill with 3 jumps and no need for only 1 jump (and maybe even do a little of taser driver things for a little while).
- Furina will buff everyone in the team, including her (only not buffing the bloom, hyperbloom, electrocharge and swirl damage).
But all of these characters, excluding Fischl, are C0, and for this plunge Kaveh team, it's best to use him on Fav, so his damage is way lower than yours (and you're not even doing spread damage xD).
I'll try your team another time to see if I can clear abyss with it as well, even with Furina and Nahida being C0.
Ive been waiting for over a year to get him hes literally te only 4 star i am still missing.
I love kaveh I built him before haithem xdd his team is pretty good doing overall around 60k in bloom and his team called bbg bloom xddd (his team has kokomi, nahida and xingqiu)
I also play my kaveh Bloom with furina and koko and nahihi♡ if I want hyperbloom, I ll switch nahihi out for fischl, I do my best to use my fave characters
I FINALLY got Kaveh from standard the other day because I was taking a break from genshin during his release.
you can just do one normal attack (can animation cancel) instead of dashing to do a plunge attack so the character's plunge range would be closer to the enemy.
the irony is that being dendro is detrimental form make his functions, bloom es reaction with direction like vaporize and melt, and the weak reaction is from a hydro attack to a dendro aura enemy, so literally kaveh actually work if he was hydro insted of dendro, the second option for him is make him gain the ownership of the dendro cores with his skill, burst and C6, so it doesnt matter who make the core, they will use Kaveh EM, kinda like how kuki and thoma work, until that happend his kit is kinda disfuncional
I’ve been a C1 Kaveh main upon release, do i have better characters? Yes. Would it make my life easier if i used them instead? Absolutely. But i love him anyways, so thank you for taking him out of the back alley ❤️
I got Kaveh C5 and I’m going to build him when I get Nilou! He’s great
Kaveh-Nilou bloom used to be a worse version of Alhaitham-Nilou bloom, but with Furina it actually feels superior to me.
The reason being, Alhaitham-Nilou-Baizhu-Yelan feels good, but lacks Furina's damage contribution.
Furina insted of Yelan is uncomfortable with Alhaitham, because she puts him in constant danger with her HP drain.
Kaveh-Nilou-Baizhu-Furina feels really good and comfortable to play, with Furina being a godly buffer and sub DPS + Kaveh is rosy-cheeked thanks to his self-healing.
I don't have Nahida, so I can't compare options that include her, but Kaveh's ER problem can be resolved without her through ER sands, substats and weapon (after a lot of experimenting, I settled on Melusine claymore).
I always said that Kaveh would be so much better if he gets ownership of the blooms when he pops them. That way you could still build em on him, and c6 would still be integral to his kit
He gives the bonus dmg if he pops them with his skill regardless of him triggering them. Not taking ownership means you actually have more freedom to use other units built for EM like I did with Furina, then you can spec into his crit stats. If using his skill to trigger blooms only used his EM it would make it impossible to do what I did this video
@@Solunerra fair. I complete understand haha. Im glad u had fun with the video tho! Keep it up!
Kaveh is amazing his gameplay is so fun
i have kaveh on a bloom team and i love playing him, hes my darling boi
Everyone out here talking about Kaveh meanwhile I'm over here crying about Layla's last rate up being the banner BEFORE Kaveh's.
I’ve managed to 36 star abyss with him using Raiden, Nahida, and Kuki before
Personally I like running him on Sacrificial for the er and extra skill
1:16 he's got quite a few new toys to be able to play around with 🥵🥵🥵
My preferred to play Kaveh is quick bloom with Collei, Xingqiu, and Kuki, I'd replace Collei with Nahida and Xingqiu with Yelan on my main account because they are better.
It's alright of a team and I don't have to wait for Kaveh's cooldown, it's big problem is it just need both EM, ER, and Crit stats. I'd put GD set on Kaveh to worry about EM.
Kaveh is the reason I cleared my first abyss a couple month ago when they had all the enemies with those geo shields. Just him being my most invested character able to break the shield that I could fit in a strong enough team. If I wouldve had Alhaitham, Nahida, or even Baizhu at the time I wouldve never built Kaveh and probably wouldve never cleared or 36 stared the abyss until this most recent one
He was my tipping point to finally start playing (but I had finals so like 5 days after Providence/Banner ended)
Now... idk if his 5-star is Baizhu or Nilou, he's mine (kinda hope its Nilou ; I like her a lil more and 2 artsy people AH)
I'm for Wanderer and c6 Faruzan in the next patch (if there won't be Faruzan in Wanderer's banner, I'm gonna steal all the road signs around Mihoyo's hq). Unfortunatelly Snek Man has also his banner then, so there's a high chance Kaveh will be there
Nice team... Too bad I don't any of the 5 stars you showed
I got him on my other account on a random single pull for stander banner. But still, such a pretty boy
I tried plunge Kaveh and it works. EM-Raiden, Furina and Xianyun. Enough er on Kaveh. 36* in the abyss with plunge Kaveh and Alhaitham hyperbloom :D
noooooo please don't hurt kaveh's hand
I almost feel bad because I keep seeing people who didn't find him in Baizhu's banner while I started playing after that banner and yet I have C1 Kaveh thanks to the standard banner 😅😥
mine is just c0
but I like the idea of em furina
the best and most lazy way to contantly apply hydro but hp drain is issue
Once I finally get nilou I will try to bloom with baizhu and nahida
He's got a new toy you say 👁👁
I run him WITH Nilou, Xingqiu and Nahida. Perfectly fine and fun! He is fun to drive dendro with
I love Kaveh he is my everything
i whaled a lot during baizhu's banner just to get kaveh. neither of them came hame T_T then i got Kaveh on standard a few banners after. no cons, only 800EM because i got trashy artis. hopefully he comes back on Haitam's banner
MY boy is still C0 but I triple crowned him anyway (I run him on the same team but Nilou who I didn't actually want but they work really well together anyway bc no matter the EM she just cannot kill the babygirl; ofc the others can absolutely die but they are only there for the meet and greet and he overheals so Furina keeps giving booboo kisses on that, so...)
Now I might wana get more artifacts to modify his current EM/dendro dmg hybrid build to go with Xianyun, though...
I have wanted Kaveh for the longest time and when I wished for him before, I got Baizhu and never Kaveh! 😩
My c6 triple crowned boy getting the appreciation he deserves
Idk why they just couldnt give him more dendro aplications to be the bloom tank that nilou needs so we dont need to take by force a healer in that team
