For the Clear Pool and Mountain Cavern domain I've always just run next to the pyro abyss mage with Barbara, positioned so when the other Abyss mages shoot they hit the pyro mage and Barbara takes down the shield fairly fast. Using Noelle for stunlock, all I have to watch out for is to dodge one of the hydro/cryo attacks so I don't get frozen and run around in circles when the homing missile comes till it stops after the third in a row, so after that I got plenty of time to kill the pyro mage and from then on it's fine since the aura is gone.
The artifact main stats are biased, but there doesn't seem to be any collected data that the substats are not.
The 4 star banner characters are pretty good for me. Getting to C6 Xiangling or C6 Noelle would be nice since i am currently using both. Or perhaps I should build up my C1 Xingqui I've had all along. That is if Ganyu is worth getting for me.

'Accidentally' pulled Albedo. I hadn't read into his abilities at all but he might actually replace Xinyan to go with my Klee/Jean/Xingqiu team.
|
From what I could tell from his trial, his E is basically Xinqui Q, but Geo and with 100% uptime and does more damage. So basically a 5* version of Xinqui. And then there is the lifting flower and be invulnerable to melee which I guess would be perfect for bow and catalyst users. Not sure how you pulled him accidently, but hey good fortune getting him on the last day and all.
Albedo is pretty strange as a character. He pops out of nowhere without being part of any storyline, before the Dragonspine region was added that is, and he is the most normally dressed person out of all the characters. Nobody else would look normal like he does. I think he was some wierd attempt to appeal to a western audience.

+ Show Spoiler [Alfredo usage] +
I also got Alfredo on my 74th roll and it reset my pity, when I was trying to get 6th constellation of sucrose... I got punished for my greed , anyway that video above pretty much shows how to use him. He's a very nice burst support and can fit into any team, really. Elevator is a little gimmicky but his E & Q damage and utility are the real deal.
Anyway, from the same guy explaining how to Sucrose + Show Spoiler +

I wasn't keen on rolling for him because of how boring his storyline/voice/personality is. I usually look for gameplay over 'waifu/husbando' but I felt my teams were complete and I was happy with Klee/Jean/Xingqiu/Xinyan. I was actually trying to roll for a few more constellations on Bennett so rolled 30 times with saved primogems and ended up with one Sucrose (of which I already had C6), zero Bennetts, and an Albedo.
That forced me to actually look into what he does and from what I see he actually is pretty strong lol. I think I'm gonna go for Noblesse 4 set on him since I have zero Petra and need to focus my resin elsewhere.

There's been a couple serious data gathering efforts for artifact substats, and they've all shown that weighting exists. What I'm not sure about is how substat upgrades are distributed once all 4 substats have been rolled.

Just to be clear, l'm talking about the rolling of the upgrading of substats, which was what firebolt and latham were talking about.

I have no idea how it is weighed but even if it's 50% def and 50% shared between critrate/critdmg/attack the chances of that happening to me was extremely slim.
I even predicted it:

Anyone got experience with a Mona Nuke build? I'm not sure I understand what google tells me
As I understand it: Mona AA -> apply Hydro status Sucrose E (with 4-piece Venerer) -> decreasing Hydro Res Bennett Q -> apply Pyro, increase ATT Mona Q -> Vaporize ??????? Somehow Mona Q again? Bennett E
For max damage 4-piece Noblesse on Mona and Bennett right? Or is Hydro better on Mona?

On discord, I got this response when I asked for the exact same thing, like a week ago:

I'm sure you can pop the bubble with Klee or Diluc as well, you don't have to go back to Bennett for that. TT would be, I assume, Thrilling dragon Tales, aka the best F2P support catalyst in the game...
And yeah, if you swap her in only for the Q nuke, full noblesse. Not sure if you want hydro DMG% goblet tho... probably Elemental Mastery or Energy Recharge on Goblet. Bennett wants Healing bonus and ele recharge on Full Noblesse.
|
I have a Widsith R3 on her. Don't know the exact numbers/ math but I guess every song should do more for me than Thrilling Tales. Circlet with Crit rate, Goblet with Atk and watch only with HP and def Still looking for EM/ Recharge or Atk
Step 3 I don't understand. Neither with TT nor with Widsith
Step 6: Multiple sources say you have to wait around with Mona to keep Benny buff and wait till inherent elemental CD refreshes or sth

Neither with TT nor with Widsith Step 3 is assuming you put Thrilling Tales on Sucrose, so you quickly swap back to Mona to put the TT buff on her instead of on Bennett. That's only if you're trying to get really really big damage numbers.
For normal gameplay I just skip all the Venerer stuff and go Bennett ult -> Mona ult -> wait 2 seconds -> pop the bubble using any pyro attack. This won't get gigantic crits, but you can get 150K+ (arbitrary estimate for good gear/levels, not a max crit dmg build) and it's really easy to do. Everything else in that list is just applying more buffs/debuffs on top of this basic reaction.
(Venerer debuff is necessary for really big numbers, but it's kind of overkill when it works, and can also mess up your vaporize reaction by swirling in other elements that are already present on the field. But along with it you also get all the EM that Sucrose generates from her talents.)
The waiting 2 seconds part is AFAIK because Mona's ult needs to apply hydro twice, once when you put it on and once when you pop the bubble, so you need to wait out the internal hydro application cooldown if you want it to proc Vaporize. You are also apparently supposed to stay as Mona while you're waiting, because her ult damage is calculated when it pops, not when she applies it. So you want to switch to pyro & pop it immediately while the Bennett buff is still affecting Mona (it lingers for a couple seconds after you switch out). I am not 100% certain on how all this works, though.
edit: you don't need full Noblesse on Mona if Bennett already has it, because the buff doesn't stack. You can give her 2-pc Noblesse and then 2-pc of anything else (Wanderer's or the new hydro set). Mine has 2-pc Gladiator's just because I happened to get a nice hydro damage Gladiator cup.

Step 3: Widsith on Sucrose or on Mona? Pretty sure the Widsith ability only apply to that character. No point having Widsith on Sucrose.
If I remember right, the Hydro status is only applied at the first and at the last instance of the Q attack. The first time phro status removes both, the second time, you re-apply Pyro so vaporise can happen.
What is missing is the build. Other than obviously giving Mona as much damage and crit damage as possible, Sucrose's build is important. You want to stack EM where you have space to do so due to Sucrose's Ascension 4 talent. You also want C6 Sucrose.

I even predicted it: + Show Spoiler + 1/8 chance assuming equal chances. Do you have at least 7 other artifacts with crit rate and crit damage for comparison?

AR50 (almost 51) and World level 7 whoop
@Firebolt Do you think there is any corelation because you did 0 -> 14 in one go?
@all Thanks for all the help and input with Mona nuke! I have Widsith on Mona. Not sure right now what Sucroses has. Might just skip step 3 then  I currently have 4 x Noblesse on both Mona and Benett. Might switch it up for Mona if it's useless. Have a Noblesse goblet with hydro damage, so that one stays
First bombs yesterday were a bit underwhelming. Need to improve my timing and upgrade talents / weapon and artifacts on Mona some more to get some decent stats going
EDIT: My Sucrose has Sacrificial Fragments giving her ~ 330 EM total right now EDIT2: What do you guys think is better for Mona: 2 Noblesse + 2 Hydro or 2 Noblesse + 2 Wanderer artifacts? I have decent choices for both options

My plan to edge close to pity worked as I got Ganyu in 3 pulls. Found it rather anticlimatic so did a 10 pull for maybe a Noelle con but got a second Ganyu lol.
Definitely will require an adjustment in play style. Awkward but damn she does a lot of dmg.
|
lol gratz! Her C1 seems nice, though know you really want that C2 I guess ^^ If I pulled her I would finally have a use for my bow prototypes and build her a Compound bow R5 or sth
Mona bomb: So far my non crit number is around 30k and crit hit is around 80k. Got me an achievement yesterday (crit over 50k)
|
It took every primogem and all my starglitter, but I got her! I will find out later if that was wise or not. Congrats on the instant C1 on yours.
My plan is to put Diona in a team with her since she has a Sacrificial Bow for generating a ton of orbs for Ganyu, plus the cryo resonance for melt crits. I think it will be really good.
|
I'm gonna save for now, might roll for her at the end of her banner if she gets good reviews, but she felt really strong in both trial and her quest. Really bonkers levels of control.
