#ascension stuff is a fun grind but artifact farming is awful

[yue-muffin]

I just figured out you can see your genshin account info on the browser lol...

Currently at AR 54, almost at AR 55. I started this account on 12/25/22 (super easy to remember lol, also, I did get extremely lucky and pulled Wanderer before his banner ended). Still F2P and intend to stay that way!

I’m still a Traveler main 100%, haha, but I might actually switch to Alhaitham...once I get far enough into Sumeru to obtain his ascension mats. He was an impulse pull, because I adore his design and Hydro Traveler is coming up, which means I’ll lose my only built dendro unit...

I clearly have a problem with building way too many units at one time haha, but for the longest time my main team was Traveler, Kaeya, Beidou, and Xingqiu (terrible synergy by the way). Now, I finally built Fischl enough to be useful so it’s currently Dendro Traveler, Fischl, Beidou, Xingqiu. I’ve also discovered that Fischl and Beidou must never part, lol. Beidou’s energy cost is so darn high, it’s always hard to get her burst up if you don’t have another electro unit on the team. She’s also my only semi-consistent shielder (I don’t use Diona despite having her leveled) so that’s important. Honestly, I’m not super good at using Beidou and she’s my least favorite on the team, her damage isn’t super amazing (though she has crap artifacts), but she was my first 4* I pulled aside from Noelle.

I also used starglitter to get Bennett because I just can’t seem to get him on the Standard Banner. I actually love playing him, he’s super fun. I throw him in when I need faster healing than Xingqiu provides, but I haven’t worked out a team for him. 

Amber is so high because favoritism, Xiangling is too stupid useful to not build even if I hate her voice with a burning passion (the ONLY JP voice I despise), I’m working on Wanderer...slowly...and I actually like Diona but I use her a lot on my alt account (which I created to enjoy the story, this account I just zoom past dialogue for progress), so I don’t want to also use her here too.

Ironically, I have five 5*s and I don’t have any of them on my main team. Could be because supports are just overall useful in many different teams, while DPS characters need more investment for a narrower range of applications.

(also, I need a more consistent and powerful shield for Wanderer...)
