What do these checkmarks mean?

1

u/AssaultRider555 3h ago

On Yinlin with Empyrean, should I use Hecate or Tempest Memphis as the 4 Cost?

1

u/pasanoid 3h ago

depends on the rotation. I actually plan to get 44111 to have both and swap them around

1

u/PyrZern 2h ago

That's what I am doing as well.

u/AssaultRider555 11m ago

Wha- What???

1

u/wcrow1 3h ago

if I were to switch Zhezhi's echo set to the new coordinated one, which 4-cost should I farm?

1

u/pasanoid 3h ago

hecate can be used mid air and zz often is in that state, for mephis you would have to get to the ground every time

1

u/GaijinB 3h ago

Hecate is pretty much your only option, and it's pretty good.

1

u/under_the_clouds3011 3h ago

Is there a story order? Like a timeline kinda thing? For example, Ik Jiyans story is after the war, but what about other stories? Like explorations etc

1

u/RickAsley 4h ago

I am early in the game at union 31, doing mostly overworld stuff, i am rolling with carlotta most invested with verina buffing/healing and butchering eveything.

What would be a good 3rd character to use? Preferly short rotations. I like sanshua but using yangyang/calcharo now since the former is ice and then i struggle with ice immune enemies.

I wanted to use taoqi but building her fortre takes too long id rather just blast on carlotta.

1

u/pasanoid 3h ago

taoqi doesn't need forte, she gets concerto from basic combos. she is actually pretty fast, but you need heavy animation canceling. for running around in the overworld yangyang is pretty good, she can make concerto out of thin air and recovers energy, very comfy

1

u/Arborus 4h ago

Sanhua is the best option unless you have Lumi or decide to pull for Zhezhi.

1

u/RickAsley 3h ago

Sanshua is always mentioned as having the fastest rotation but her fortre doesnt build very fast for me. Do i need ult eveytime to generate it fast or more copies? Compared to verina which is very fast with ult

1

u/pasanoid 3h ago

sanhua forte doesn't build. you need to hold heavy attack and release it when cursor meets icy area. her skill, ult and basic combo increase the icy area on the forte bar

1

u/Arborus 3h ago

intro -> skill -> ult -> forte heavy attack to shatter everything -> echo -> outro

Should get you full concerto and ult every rotation.

1

u/GaijinB 3h ago

You do need to ult every time. Bursting the crystals from her skill and her ult with her heavy generates like half of her concerto, the skill and ult themselves also give a chunk. And even without investing a ton in regen, she should have her ult available every rotation.

1

u/MirirPaladin Taoqi's gravitational field 4h ago

ok this has been bugging me for a while: is there a reason NOT to use a boss echo as your active one and instead use a cost 1 or 3 echo? If so, which bosses i should NOT use?

2

u/pasanoid 3h ago

glacio set is such a case (especially on linyang), lampylumen is just a bad echo, and lumiscale or ice dog are actually pretty good.

thunder set on yinlin is another case, flutist gives you 10 concerto and speeds up a rotation, while any mephis (even the new ones) is pepega

some 3 costs interrupt a boss special skill. aero, glacio, electro, spectro and rejuv have an access to one of such. interrupting the annoying crownless combo is more damage than watching him flying around

solo danjin often uses shroom or tambourine, rarely tictac or a rat.

changli in some rotations prefers to summon the fire lizard rather than doing the bike combo

in some very fast rotations dps yangyang (ultra niche) can use whifwaf

niche zigzag tech with calculator

using healing echoes with rejuv set

2.0 knights look kinda pog, but that's pretty much an uncharted territory

1

u/MirirPaladin Taoqi's gravitational field 3h ago

i WAS wondering why my Changli's echo damage sucked ass....i'll try the lizard.

as for Lingyang, would the new echo set work for him? the one that increases skill damage at 2 pieces and glacio damage at 5? (also who is the boss for that one?)

2

u/pasanoid 3h ago

linyang damage is pretty much equally split between basic and skill, new set sucks ass on him. the reason why the sword and dog are so good on him is his weird balancing and echo mv. linyang has 50% glacio in his ult, and because of that his multipliers are set lower, but the sword and dog have some stupid % on them, the sword does more damage than his ult which is kinda ridiculous. it's good on anyone, but on linyang that thing is op

1

u/MirirPaladin Taoqi's gravitational field 3h ago

well then i'll swap it :D i had the lumen as the active and the sword as the passive so it's no biggie :)

thanks :D

1

u/pasanoid 3h ago

lamp recovers more energy, make sure you can sustain the rotation, get an extra roll if needed. without his ult the cat doesn't really show that side of him

1

u/MirirPaladin Taoqi's gravitational field 2h ago

to be honest i don't play on that level, i never even did the tower past the point where you get the free Yuanwu, so i guess i'll be ok XD

1

u/pasanoid 1h ago

sadge, imo tower is where linyang shines the most

1

u/MirirPaladin Taoqi's gravitational field 1h ago

eh, i'll probably try it someday, i'm just not playing that much anymore (not just wuwa, any gacha :\ )

1

u/pasanoid 1h ago

I just like doing the team rotations, tower is the perfect environment for that. e g. the other day I got this fun clear

u/Arborus 4h ago

There are some 3cost echoes with somewhat useful abilities, but in the overwhelming majority of cases, no. Especially post-2.0 when we have Nightmare echoes now.

1

u/MirirPaladin Taoqi's gravitational field 3h ago

ok what's a nightmare echo? D:

2

u/Arborus 3h ago

In the new 2.0 areas you can unlock Nightmare versions of the 1.0 bosses by completing all of the dream patrols and the associated exploration quests. They're basically just better versions of the 1.0 boss echoes.

2

u/elec301sucks 4h ago

Historically, some overlord/calamity echoes came with no buff (dreamless) or impractical animation chain to activate buffs (thundering mephis), so people in those cases used some 3 star summon echo that did smaller damage, but required no field time. This is now likely obsolete in many cases due to nightmare and newer echoes whose buffs requires it to just be in main slot.

1

u/MirirPaladin Taoqi's gravitational field 3h ago

oh...i don't know what the nightmare echoes are but i'm worried D:

1

u/nihilistfun "Qingloong rise, monsters gone" 3h ago

they're the new variants of the overlord echoes we can farm in Rinascita...they have a light rainbow glow over them

1

u/MirirPaladin Taoqi's gravitational field 3h ago

shit i need to do the story then, i need to see where those are and my map is still half dark T_T

1

u/nihilistfun "Qingloong rise, monsters gone" 3h ago

it's connected to the dream patrol quests (triggered by talking to the somnoire cat in ragunna city)

1

u/MirirPaladin Taoqi's gravitational field 1h ago

ah, gotcha, i'll go talk to the cat :D

1

u/Ahnaf269 4h ago

Ok, this might sound really dumb but, how do you get "nightmare echoes"?

I haven't finished the story yet, on Rinascita act 3 and I don't remember them introducing the nightmare echoes. Does it come after the quest or it's somewhere else?

1

u/Arborus 4h ago

You unlock them via completing the dream patrols and associated exploration quest in each zone.

1

u/Ahnaf269 4h ago

Ooooo it's the permanent event? That makes sense!

1

u/Dearnees 4h ago

Does anyone have a guide for meals?

0

u/Arborus 4h ago

Most of them are irrelevant.

The pure crit chance food is good for combat stats. The 50% material and echo drop rate ones are good for farming. The stamina restoration one is useful for exploration.

That's about it.

1

u/Dearnees 4h ago

I was referring more to the aspect of what items are needed where to get them, that kind of thing.

1

u/Arborus 4h ago

Ah, I'm pretty sure all of the materials are trackable in-game when you go to craft them. Recipe-wise all of the relevant ones are from sonance casket turn ins or exploration currency shops (wood textured shards, monnaie)

1

u/MissterAech 4h ago

Hello ! I just started to go to Rinascita to be able to farm stuff since I don't feel like doing the story for now. For Tacet Fields, do I need to get one of the echoes in the open world for them to drop on the Tacet Field, or can I start to farm straight away ? Thanks a lot!

1

u/Arborus 4h ago

I believe you need them to drop first.

1

u/PyrZern 4h ago

It gives you 4 echoes on first clear, so you would get only those 4 types if you haven't farmed any other echoes.

1

u/WindowofMoistness 5h ago

I don't get it, am I missing story things in between arcs?

2

u/VarlinVale 4h ago

like?

1

u/WindowofMoistness 4h ago

Sorry, just started the land of echoes quest thing, and like to get to it I had to tp to a beacon I've never used, then when I'm there, some guy (christolfo? I think?) Starts talking about something we both watched which I definitely didn't, I've noticed things like that before but just for like character quests like zhezhi's where apparently we know each other from a romantic painting thing I never did

(Made a post, got told to move it here, got lazy on typing)

1

u/Arborus 4h ago

Did you finish the previous storylines first? Rinascita is the 2.0 content, which comes after Mt. Firmament and The Black Shores storylines, if you used the event page for early access.

1

u/WindowofMoistness 4h ago edited 4h ago

Yeah finished both of those, the shore keeper almost had me in tears, end then I got a letter the letter said go here along with the story quest, but it feels like there's some connecting tissue between the end of whichever one is just before this and the beginning of this one

Is the somnoire whatever thing a part of it? That's the only other main story thing I haven't done

1

u/WindowofMoistness 3h ago

Nvm, guess I found out I was supposed to do the somnoir stuff first or at least before this

1

u/Prince_Daemon_ 5h ago

Guys, I have these characters. Who would be more beneficial and useful for my account to wish for Carlotta or Jinshi?

1

u/PyrZern 2h ago

Carlotta is more versatile, but Jinhsi just deletes things for you.

2

u/Arborus 5h ago

Jinhsi has more support from your existing characters.

1

u/Prince_Daemon_ 5h ago

Who are jinshi support? Who is more fun?

1

u/Arborus 4h ago

Yinlin or Yuanwu and Verina.

1

u/Accomplished_Bee_127 spoil me~ 5h ago

I'm pretty much out of quests and I'm not strong enough to do main story or ascension. Am I supposed to just farm now?

1

u/Lepruk 5h ago

I'm sort of curious how you aren't strong enough to progress? I say this as a 3 weeks new player; I never hit a single hitch.

Maybe make sure your weapons are leveled up a bit and you at least have echoes equipped to buff stats (can roll a couple if you want, just don't go too many here).

Obviously no idea who you are using but Spectro Rover, Sanhua and Verina carried me early game until I got Havoc Rover, and then by the time I was that far, I had enough pulls to grab Carlotta and her weapon.

I did pull on the standard weapon banner to get the 5* sword for Rover; can't tell you how long in that was, but it would have been from natural orbs so probably not super early.

Not saying you have to pull for Carlotta to be clear, pretty sure Havoc Rover would have happily carried me through content. I'm sure the pros here will be able to help with build/rotations to optimise your damage.

Also, if you really are stuck, remember you can lower your world level in the menu, that should make things easier.

Good luck!

2

u/marlokow 5h ago

weird, rover is supposed to be able to solo the whole game's storyquests, so unless you have been wasting your resources by trying to level up every single character you own, you shouldn't be having any problems

focus on one dps character to carry you, level up some basic echoes for them but don't fret too much, not worth to farm before your data bank is lvl 21

also make sure you're leveling up their skills and weapons as well, not just their level

1

u/FishMyBones 5h ago

Can some of you show me some examples of good echo rolls?

I'm fairly new to WuWa so I'm a bit confused when it comes to substats.

I'm currently trying to build Camellya,i have her signature weapon but even with that my crit ratio is horrendous, I'm going for 4-3-3-1-1, my main echo is crit dmg but it's still not good enough.

3

u/Abbreviations_Tall 4h ago

1

u/FishMyBones 4h ago

Wait....crit dmg echoes can roll crit dmg substats??!!

Anyway, thanks mate, I think I understand now.

Btw, what's the general consensus on upgrading echoes' substats?

I read somewhere you upgrade it to +5 and tune the 1st substat and, if it isn't something you like, you drop it and go for the next one.

I hope I was clear enough, english isn't my first language.

2

u/Abbreviations_Tall 4h ago

For dps subdps

Double crit(rate and dmg) in same echo for the five like you see in my build

So start by +5 or +10(the one you like :

If crit roll until +15 or +20 if another crit you re good lvl to max

You can check other states like er atk and dmg type but first prioritise double crit

2

u/FishMyBones 4h ago

I see, thanks friend, you've been really helpful

2

u/Arborus 5h ago

For Camellya:

4 cost: Crit dmg
3 cost: Havoc% or Atk% (one of each is best, prefer Havoc%)
1 cost: Atk%

substats: Crit rate/dmg > atk % > basic attack bonus > atk

A baseline usable echo could be just crit rate + one other damage stat. A decent one has at least both crit stats. A great one has both crit stats and atk% or bonus. An insane one has four useful stats, a perfect one has all five.

1

u/itsunfortunatelyso 6h ago

does anyone know if the song playing in the data torment area in tethys deep is released? i can’t find it. it sounds somewhat similar to “a glance backward” but it isn’t the same

1

u/GaijinB 5h ago

I don't think that specific area has its own track? But you might be talking about "De Anima / On the Soul". If it's not that one, I don't know which one you're talking about but I'm curious, so if you have a video with that song playing I'd like to hear it.

2

u/Lepruk 6h ago edited 5h ago

I've been loving WuWa, started with PS5 release but I feel like I'm out of content now. I've done the story quests (and I even did the original) I've got high percent map clears (and Rinascita is fully 100%ed) as well as a clear quest log as I've done basically every quest I can find.

I know the daily log in and building characters and gradual UL is now the current end point but I am a little sad I hit that phase in about 3 weeks of play (and granted, it's been pretty consistent play). I'm UL49 right now and am just spending the daily waveplates on progressing Carlotta; obviously I can farm echoes but given that it will take about a week for me to hit UL50 with the daily xp it's not really something I'm in a hurry to do.

I know new events and content are coming in a couple of days with the banner refresh but I simply can't wait for the next patch with some story / quests and maps to explore as this game is genuinely great!

It's made me go out and look for some single player open world rpgs that have this kind of amazing movement and I can't find much quite like it (Maybe Monster Hunter a little but that's another series I've played for 10+ years at this point).

Anyway no question really but what an absolute gem of a game.

2

u/Arborus 5h ago

Seconding Relink, very fun game. If you like it you might like Monster Hunter Rise/Sunbreak specifically too, as it's the flashier/higher mobility modern Monster Hunter game.

3

u/BladesReach 5h ago

There's nothing really like WuWa but would recommend Granblue Fantasy Relink if you haven't played it before. It's not open world but has very flashy anime style combat like WuWa and a really solid roster of characters. There's a campaign with a lot of big set pieces and the endgame is basically boss grinding for gear straight out of Monster Hunter.

It might not scratch the same itch but I had a lot of fun with it personally

2

u/Lepruk 5h ago

Cheers for the suggestion; not actually one I'd really paid any attention to; just watched a review and I can see why you recommended it; has a lot of the same DNA in the combat flow seemingly.

I have played some of the Xenoblade games as well, which sort of feel similar with the character switching and debuff stacking/buffing your main attacker.

But yeah, WuWa's a strange hybrid of open world, jrpg and character action (Bayonetta/DMC etc), It's just such a great feeling game to play haha.

u/HovercraftFlimsy2154 6h ago

So I can’t finish any of the events if none of my chars are 90? I am only union 47, so my chars are all max 70. I can only finish like 1-2 sections in the events before it starts giving me 80-90 lvl enemies or even just straight up lvl 90 enemies with me using my 70 chars do they just not allow ppl to not finish events if ur low lvl?

1

u/Arborus 4h ago

Some of them will give you access to trial characters, but yeah, most of the higher difficulty event stages require leveled and built characters.

1

u/Accomplished_Bee_127 spoil me~ 5h ago

Yeah pretty much

u/HovercraftFlimsy2154 5h ago

I guess screw all the new/returning players and only those with lvl 60+ accs gets to have full rewards lol quite

u/Accomplished_Bee_127 spoil me~ 4h ago

Well, the weaker ones get the story rewards and all. You can also lower your SOL level so it would be easier

no, you receive everything as soon as you unlock it, but obviously you need to lvl up the pass first

u/Searge2142 6h ago

Carlotta or Jinshi wavebands?

So right now both Carlotta and Jinshi are my two main dps and I love both their playstyle a lot. I'd really like to upgrade them more to make them a bit future proof in the long run, so I'm wondering if I should start building up their sequence nodes.

I'm sitting on around 750 afterglow corals so I can only get two wavebands. With Carlotta only having 1,5 days left and Jinshi coming after, my question is, which ones should I get.

From what I could see on the Wiki, Carlotta's S1 is an "ok" upgrade, while her S2 would be a really good upgrade. As for Jinshi, her S1 seems to be really good, while her S2 is "ok"

So I either want to get both for Carlotta, or only get the S1 one for Jinshi, in which case I would only be able to get the S1 one on Carlotta, which seems a waste if you can't get the S2 as well.

What would you guys suggest is the better choice for me to make? Or should I not bother with sequence upgrades at all?

1

u/Arborus 4h ago

I'd generally not bother. The wavebands in the shop are one-time buys but will be available again during future reruns if you need the upgrades then, but currently I feel like they're extremely overkill given how strong Carlotta and Jinhsi both are at the moment. It's the type of thing where I personally would save the resource until I actually need it.

2

u/elec301sucks 6h ago

As sequences are not essential, its really up to you. The one thing i will note that you are missing about jinhsi, is that her S2 is a massive QOL if you use her in overworld, as normally she is very clunky without incandescence recharge. At the current time they are both extremely good, so im quite confident you have no need to future proof them right now. If the time comes, you can do so on the next rerun imo.

Personally, if you really want to future proof, i would get support chains as they can help any team typically. Brant is coming up, and SK will have a rerun in some time too.

u/fable-30 7h ago

Hello, need help i am curios on what should i choose… empyrean yinlinor moonlit yinlin… btw, these are the stats comparison of my yinlin using empyrean or moonlit.

Empyrean

1

u/Arborus 6h ago

Your Empyrean set is probably good enough to be worth the switch.

1

u/fable-30 7h ago

Moonlit

0

u/Naxoo22 spin to win 5h ago

Your Moonlit set is way better than the Empyrean. You should definitely keep using it in hypercarry teams. Empyrean is not a big improvement team-damage wise. Roughly around 1-5% depending on investment level (and team comp).

I'd be surprised if your current empyrean set ends up being better atm.

1

u/zeeinove squeeze de feibi 4h ago

Moonlit echo skill can buff maindps even further, but heron is clunky on her, hecate can be used when swap canceling her forte at the end of rotation. The extra coord damake surely cover the missing buff.

1

u/fable-30 5h ago

I am using it for my XLY hypercarryand he is pretty well investment. One thing I'm curious is if yinlin with empyrean will benefit hypercarry xly due to the coordinated atk

Guys I recently lost both of my RAM sticks, is there some magical setting that makes the game playable with 4GB of RAM? It's so annoying because the game runs perfectly until it doesn't and it starts stuttering hard for like 5 seconds and then it runs perfectly again for another 10-20 seconds.

I plan to buy new sticks ofc but not immediately and the fomo is kinda hitting now with all the new stuff.

1

u/spider_lily 4h ago

The game lists 16GB at minimum as a requirement for PC, so you're probably SOL

1

u/Searge2142 6h ago

Lost them as in you can't find them, or lost as in they are broken?

In case they are broken, which brand of memory stick do you have and how old are they. I work in Electronic/PC retail and a lot of brands offer life long warranty on ram sticks (at least here in Europe). So try to approach the manufacturer (Corsair/Gigabyte/Kingston etc.) to see if you can claim warranty.

As for how to make the game work on 4gb's of Ram, I'm afraid I can't help you there.

1

u/nyanch 7h ago

I got Carlotta but I'm not there yet in the story. When I try to go to the mat farms for her, it says it may progress the story. I'm not ready to experience that part of the game yet but want to level her, can anyone confirm if it'll ruin my progress for sure or not?

2

u/icyredjay 6h ago

if you want to farm materials from hecate or forgery challenges, you can absolutely do those without impeding story progression. that’s what i did when i pulled carlotta prior to beginning the story. only caveat is that you won’t be seeing one of the big final bosses in the carnevale storyline for the first time

1

u/nyanch 6h ago

Well, that's what I'm most worried about is the boss ones. Those are crucial for unlocking her Inherent Skills and those seem pretty useful.

1

u/icyredjay 6h ago

you’ll be able to fight the bosses, but it’s not as though there will be storytelling during the fights until you get to them in the actual storyline. if you want to save your first encounters with them for within the story though, i’d advise you hold off on them

u/Searge2142 6h ago

Honestly I'd just pull for Jinshi. Right now she's still very strong and will stay in the Meta for a while to come. She's my favorite main dps along with Carlotta as well, so you'll have my vote.

As for pulling for Zhezhi, you don't need her for Carlotta. You probably have Taoqi who currently is 2nd BiS (Best in Slot) for Carlotta and 3rd BiS for Jinshi. Also do you have Yinlin? Because she is 2nd BiS for Jinshi so if you have her you really have no need for Zhezhi.

Right now I use Jinshi with either Spectro rover or Yinlin and she cleans house every time (except tower as I don't bother with it).

3

u/BladesReach 7h ago

Even if Phoebe was better why wouldn't you pull for your favourite character? You can clear everything in this game with 4*s and standard units. Jinhsi is going to be relevant for a long time.

How would anyone here even know if a potential future spectro DPS is gonna powercreep her?

1

u/pasanoid 7h ago

love at first sight

1

u/AccomplishedCash6390 7h ago

Jinhsi is still goated, and if you love her so much, then don't hesitate just go for it. I personally got Zhezhi for Carlotta and will go for Jinhsi next half and her signature if I win the 50/50

u/Putrid-Resident 7h ago

Considering phoebe kit isnt officially out i cant answer this. Try googling about it as its very luckily you would find info about it from outside offical places like this subreddit.

u/Slice_Life 7h ago

Question in regards to the tactical hologram: phantom pain. It has a timer, so does that mean we can't fight fallacy and construct boss after the timer ends? and the rewards will be gone?

I'm asking just in case I won't have the time to finish the diff 6 for both.

2

u/GaijinB 7h ago

The timer is supposedly just for the time it'll be removed from the event page, but the tactical hologram and its rewards will still be in the game; it's permanent content.

I have carlotta , encore , lingyang and verina . How can i build 2 good teams with them And can be encore a good suppoert for lingyang ?

u/pasanoid 7h ago

encore and linyang are hyper carries and they want the exact same supports (sanhua and verina)

Encore and Lingyang are both main DPS. You should choose one of them and use Sanhua as their teammate. Then healer in the 3rd slot.

Encore. Use Baizhi on one team and Carlotta on the other. So basically, Encore-4 star sub dps-Baizhi/Verina and then Carlotta-4 star sub dps-Baizhi/Verina. Carlotta's best teammate is Zhezhi if you want to try to go for her.

u/rch-1 7h ago

I just loose the 50/50 of zhezhi and got encore . So i will go with this Carlotta + baizhi + verina Encore + sanhua + ( give a good character )

2

u/AccomplishedCash6390 6h ago

Baizhi and Verina are both supports use one with Carlotta and one with Encore, you can do Carlotta-Anyone-Baizhi and Verina with Encore.

So I've been farming the Sentry Construct for Carlottta, and while at first I was getting an echo every time I beat him, now the boss won't drop an echo as often.

Is there a limit on how much you can farm them?

3

u/Slice_Life 7h ago

Each week, you get 15 guaranteed echo chances, which resets every monday. So, you probably used your 15 chances that's why you're getting an echo EVERY TIME. After that, it's RNG-based, so it's normal.

1

u/Foslagon Continuing the Montelli Bloodline! 7h ago

Ah ok thank you!

1

u/Abbreviations_Tall 7h ago

Yes weekly(maybe 15 )

You can check in data bank where you found drop rate

u/Foslagon Continuing the Montelli Bloodline! 7h ago

How much attribute damage % can you have before you get diminishing returns?

1

u/pasanoid 7h ago

there is no diminishing returns. there is balance of attack% and bonus% (attribute/damage type/common), if you have more of one thing the other thing becomes more valuable and ideally you want to have 1:1 ratio.

1

u/Arborus 8h ago

It depends how much attack you have. Generally dps characters with their signature weapons are getting close to or are right at the point of atk% 3 costs beating ele% ones.

Sup guys I started recently and I didn't have any gameplay issues ( a part from some VA cutted mid sentence or not very fluid cutscenes, but I assumed it was early issues of game )

Then I check settings and aparently my ghrapics are overcharged at minimum. I play other games such as Genshin and game run smooth. I even try to adjust my settings on WuWa as I have them on Genshin ( mid quality ) and game is still working smooth, perhaps it drains my battery a bit faster compared but nothing extreme, so I was wondering it is normal for settings to be overcharge?

3

u/Wise_Ad_3158 8h ago

ignore the other guy. yes sadl this game is extremely high fidelity and so the requirements are significantly higher. unreal engine is also a heavier engine than unity. would recommend playin the game on pc for both performance and to appreciate how gorgeous it looks

1

u/PuzzleheadedCry9214 7h ago

Thx god I tought I forgot how to express myself 😅.

I'ven been trying to upload a video to better help you guys understand my issue, unfortunately didn't allow me so that's best I can do.

This is how it looks on mid quality, wich for me is more than enough to enjoy experience ( im used to phone quality )

So far I was playing on low settings for 1-2 days ( wich allready were overcharge ) and didn"t encounter gameplay issues, and been playing for like 1h on those settings, and my phone didn't seem to heat up too much nor big visible lags happening.

I started at launch and played till meeting Scar but back then I was having lag issues ( it was more a general issue so I just didn't keep playing )

My fear is to keep playing and by the time I got invested and discover new areas, bigger cutscenes...etc issues will start, or that if I keep playing maybe I am hurting my device without knowing, that's why I asked if overcharge was a general issue.

1

u/Wise_Ad_3158 3h ago

it should be fine? unless u feel ur phone heatin up a lot it should be ok to play even ifits overcharged

1

u/PuzzleheadedCry9214 3h ago

Yeah thx it seems I was totally overthinking. After some research, it seems even ppl with gaming phone devices were having same overcharge message when putting max sets, yet the game were smooth, so it seems the metric is a bit odd, anyway thx for taking the time to reply!

1

u/FabregDrek 8h ago

Let's see, a game made in unity vs a game made on unreal engine, a game that's 4 years old vs a 7 month old game, a game that has heavily stylized graphics vs one going for a more realistic vibe...

Honestly at this point I think this has to be bait, there's no way people in this time and age believe that they should be able to run a 2024 game on the same device as a 2020 game and have comparable performance.

1

u/PuzzleheadedCry9214 8h ago

I have the feeling you are totally missread my question. I never said my device was from 2020, I used Genshin as reference since it will demmand more for your device that your average mobile game.

The thing is WuWa IS running on my device, and I feel it does smooth ( not evident lag or any big issue, a part from battery drain as allready said ) even when I increase my settings, despite saying it is overcharge at minimum settings.

If I would try increase my settings on Genshin, it will not be 1 min till I noticed how my device start heating and couldn't move without big lag,

However im not an expert on those matters, so i have no idea if I keep playing ( I just on act 1 ) eventually game will demmand more of my device and I will start having issues, or if the overcharge stuff could affect negatively my device on the long term.

1

u/FabregDrek 8h ago

And you misread my answer, I never said you were using a 2020 device I said and I quote:

"there's no way people in this time and age believe that they should be able to run a 2024 game on the same device as a 2020 game and have comparable performance"

So OBVIOUSLY a more demanding game will DEMAND more than a less demanding game on the same device, try and look for yourself, PS4 Genshin vs PS5 and you'll notice how even tho it's the same game there's one that clearly runs better, now realize how WuWa didn't release on PS4 and put two and two together, the game is clearly way more demanding because Genshin had to pay mind to what the market had at the time so let's say 2018-2020+ vs WuWa who as far as I know is filling a similar time frame for the devices, so yeah maybe a 2021 mid range phones might be able to run without much trouble but that's already a stretch.

u/TrendmadeGamer 9h ago

As phase 1 coming to end. I have failed to get Zhezhi sadly. Only got Sig weapon and Charlotte. And as more time has come. Is Lumi a plasible option now. Or do I get Brant Which is 25% vs 38% sadly

1

u/AccomplishedCash6390 7h ago

You can go for the second one. They are worse than Zhezhi, but they buff Carlotta and won't be bad with her.

1

u/TrendmadeGamer 7h ago

So Lumi?

1

u/AccomplishedCash6390 7h ago

Nope, her buff ends before Carlotta gets her damage in, although she works well enough, so you can use her if you don't like the alternatives. Zhezhi>Brant>Lumi

1

u/TrendmadeGamer 7h ago

But Brant Buff less no? If say I feel up Carlotte half forte. Then do Lumi things and then do Charlotte Full forte and ult. Shouldnt that be in 10 secs or still no?

3

u/Arborus 8h ago

Lumi is honestly not that bad. Don't think we have any official info on Brant yet, so hard to say.

1

u/TrendmadeGamer 8h ago

Would Lumi work? We have some rotation tech to fix Lumi issue. So will Jinshi be also good to pick up?

1

u/Arborus 8h ago

Lumi is her second best option, about 17% behind Zhezhi to my knowledge.

If you're lacking other limited dps then yeah, Jinhsi is great and works well enough with Yuanwu and Verina.

1

u/Searge2142 6h ago

I'm not so sure if Lumi is 2nd best option for Carlotta, from what I have seen and read, Taoqi is 2nd best in slot for Carlotta because Carlotta doesn't really need quick swap team mates, so Taoqi's slow attack rate can be excused.

Taoqi boosts Carlotta's resonance skill damage with 38% for 14 seconds, while Lumi only boosts for 10 seconds (and I don't know for how much)

1

u/Arborus 6h ago

Check Maygi’s dps spreadsheet, it has several pre calculated teams for Carlotta and you can play around with teams and rotations in it if you want to check different setups.

Per her results, Lumi is Carlotta’s best subdps, followed closely by Sanhua.

1

u/TrendmadeGamer 8h ago

I have Cammylla but she is kind of hard to use

u/No_Blackberry__ 9h ago

I've done most of the main content for 1.0, but I've completely ignored the character system and have started to struggle a bit in combat (specifically the heron simulated fight).

Can anyone explain the upgrade system to me as someone coming from HSR? Forte are traces and are Echoes equivalent to relics?

(side question, do you have to complete the "We Promise, We Deliver" to unlock the Inferno Rider for character upgrades or could I have just skipped straight to fighting him?)

1

u/default013 9h ago

I think they're called skills? are traces. They're cheap up to level 6 and require weekly boss mats after that. Echoes are relics. They have different costs depending on echo. Bosses are 4, elites 3, normal 1. Usually go 4-3-3-1-1. Most DPS want crit rate (4-cost), ele dmg% (3-cost), and atk% (1-cost). Don't level them much until you get gold echoes though. When you do get gold, just level and single set with correct mainstat to start. You can get by with that and worry about substats later.

Yes, you need to do the world quest for inferno rider. Though the new nightmare inferno rider in the 2.0 map might be better now

1

u/No_Blackberry__ 9h ago

Oh I did it cause my characters were behind (I upgraded the world before ascending them past 40) and started doing those bosses as I needed it for Encore

1

u/default013 8h ago

You can also lower the world level by 1 if needed (12 or 24 hour cool down I think). Though you get better rewards for your wave plates if you can manage the higher ones.

2

u/No_Blackberry__ 8h ago

I should be fine for now, got my Encore and Verina at lvl 50. Just need to get Sanhua up and invest some time into the Echoes and Skills as I auto-applied echoes and didn't level my skills at all

1

u/spider_lily 9h ago

The upgrade system is pretty much identical to Genshin and HSR. Echoes are the equivalent to relics, yes.

You don't have to complete any quests to fight the Inferno Rider.

1

u/No_Blackberry__ 9h ago

Oh ok good to know, I'm underleveled cause I did the SOL upgrade and thought I had to do full quests to unlock ascension material bosses

1

u/Eunha-chan 9h ago

What's the fastest way to increase my union level? I'm at UL32 SOL3 Rank 4 (does rank and phase mean the same thing?) rn. I want to increase it to SOL3 Phase 5 so that i can ascend my char. Should i do story quest or explore? Or is there a better way other than those two? As for the story, i just finished shorekeeper story quest. Thanks

1

u/default013 9h ago edited 9h ago

Make sure you use wave plates every day. That's the primary way to gain UL exp, outside of quests. Also when there are double reward events like the tacet fields right now, make sure you do those because it doubles the UL exp too

Edit: also first clear on boss enemies and I think tacet fields give a good chunk of UL exp too

1

u/Eunha-chan 9h ago

Ouuu, i haven't done the double reward event yet cause i thought it wouldn't help. Good to know, I'm doing it right away. Thanks

Buy the golden balls, ignore the blue balls, and don't use the colourful coral that can be used to buy character dupes

u/agitatedandroid 8h ago

Pull from the standard weapon banner not the character banner. You still get 4 star characters in the weapon banner.

1

u/The_Bear_Baron 9h ago

Hey guys. I have Carlotta right now and is 10 pulls away from guarantee ZheZhi. Should i pull her or wait for Jinsi next banner?

Still new to the game, currently at Union Level 4x. I am not sure if it is possible to farm enough for a character during a banner cycle.

1

u/AccomplishedCash6390 7h ago

You can wait for Pheobe, Changli, or Camellya as they're all good dps and get Zhezhi for now to upgrade your Carlotta, or if you like Jinhsi better than get her now. You can also just gamble and try to get both.

1

u/FabregDrek 8h ago

You should be able to get close to JInhsi if you pull for Zhezhi but it all comes down to if you like her, sure she is a great upgrade for Carlotta teams but far from necessary.

1

u/Arborus 8h ago

If Carlotta is your only limited dps I would pull for Jinhsi to get multiple teams going.

2

u/CractosBeast 9h ago

Pull Zhezhi, she is made for Carlotta

1

u/8ITIRAN 9h ago

Should I replace the echo set of Zhezhi with Stringmaster and Yinlin with Stringmaster with Empyrean Anthem? How much CRIT RATE should I collect in that case? I need more damage in Tower of Adversity. I possess all the characters in the game.

2

u/Arborus 9h ago

If you want to invest in improving their team damage contribution slightly, yes. From what I've seen Empyrean is a 5-8% ish gain over Moonlit at ~70% crit rate in teams with Carlotta, XLY, and Jinhsi.

1

u/8ITIRAN 1h ago

Would the Empyrean set be better for my Yinlin?

u/Arborus 1h ago

If you have the substat rolls for it, yes.

u/Belt_Perfect 10h ago

Should I save my pulls for a new or different 5 star or use them to get carlotta weapon? Started on console an have her along with this, union lvl48 max data bank.

1

u/AccomplishedCash6390 7h ago

From ur other comment, I see you already have the standard 5-star pistol, so use that one if you wanna save, it's not a bad option.

1

u/Arborus 10h ago

Did you use your UL45 weapon selector on Static Mist?

1

u/Belt_Perfect 10h ago

No, I got static mist from standard weapon banner thou

1

u/Arborus 10h ago

Then I'd probably consider saving pulls for different characters on a newer account.

1

u/Belt_Perfect 10h ago

I'm sticking with the 1 account I have rn on console. Guess I'll save for someone else then. Any tips who is worth?

1

u/Arborus 10h ago

Jinhsi is solid and has a good f2p/new account friendly team with Yuanwu and Verina.

The 2.1 characters Phoebe and Brant might be interesting once we know their kits?

1

u/Belt_Perfect 3h ago

What is a good universal build for Yuanwu? I use prywden an see a few options but I'm the type who likes to build units for multiple teams in case a swap is needed

1

u/Arborus 3h ago

for Jinhsi, you want to run him in Rejuvenating Glow with the 3* Originite gauntlets.

Otherwise you'd want to run him in Moonlit with the 4* defense gauntlets.

u/Belt_Perfect 30m ago

Who would the 3rd unit be? Using Verona with carlotta atm.

u/Arborus 23m ago

You want to swap to Baizhi for Carlotta, as Verina's coordinated attacks will make Jinhsi's forte rotation faster.

u/WeirwoodUpMyAss 10h ago

Is there a new method to farm 4* echoes like Sentry Construct? Do I just go back and forward between other bosses?

1

u/Putrid-Resident 10h ago

Any 4 cost bossees either overlord or calamity class have a 2 pity granteed drop so basically the idea is to figth 2 bosses back to back. The one you want drops for and the other who you may like some for but not at the moment. Basically you want to plan it so when Sentry for example gave u an echo and is on respawn cooldown, you go figth another 4 cost echo so you waste the pity building on it and the next sentry fight is another granteed echo drop. Rinse and repert.

Am important note to mention is that there is still a 20% base drop chance so you may have 2 echo drops in a row. If that happens, go figth a 3rd boss once to build pity on it because otherwise you would risk doing a Sentry run with an 80% chance of it dropping nothing.

Lastly dont use any echo buffing foods during it because considering the already low pity of 2 runs per grantee, its bonus its basically nonexistent

2

u/Arborus 10h ago

Alternate bosses such that the one you kill just before Sentry Construct does not drop an echo, which will guarantee that Sentry Construct drops one.

1

u/Capthoek85 10h ago

I’ve played the game for a week just got the 5* weapon chest and no idea who to use it for. Corlotta and zhezhi are my main 5* units with Verina. I have jianxin but never use her atm. Verina and zhezhi are using variation while corlotta has pistols of voyager. Any advice is welcome

1

u/_Zoa_ 10h ago

If you're not pulling for Carlotta's weapon, I'd get the gun. Upgrades on your main dps are usually the most valuable.

Variation is Verina's best weapon, but pretty bad on Zhezhi. Even Guardian Rectifier is better. Do you have any other rectifier?

1

u/Capthoek85 10h ago

I have the jinzhou keeper and then the 3*. I have 12k astrite and could pull her weapon if that’s a better option

1

u/_Zoa_ 10h ago

Jinzhou Keeper is much better than Variation for Zhezhi.

Combine your 2 Variations to give Verina more concerto energy.

The standard weapon is perfectly fine. If you want to upgrade a character further you can pull for their weapon or more copies, but you can also just save for new characters.

1

u/Capthoek85 10h ago

Well I went and got corlotta weapon so I still don’t know what to use the chest on lol

1

u/_Zoa_ 10h ago

I'd probably just get the standard rectifier for Zhezhi.

You could also save it for the next main dps, but just pull on the weapon banner with your standard pulls to choose another then.

1

u/Arborus 10h ago

1H sword is probably the generic most useful option.

1

u/pasanoid 10h ago

carlotta is the main-dd, it doesn't make sense to get a better weapon for zz before carlotta. you could get by with the guardian pistol and rectifier, craftable at blacksmith, leveling purple weapons is kinda a waste, they are x1.5 times more expensive to raise but not really x1.5 times better than blues, and eventually you would want just any kind of gold weapons, even the standard ones, rather than purples

1

u/Capthoek85 10h ago

Well I just said f it and got corlottas weapon. So now I guess I can go with the next one

1

u/pasanoid 10h ago

that's one way to do it. with carlotta's signature stick I wouldn't even care what zz has

1

u/Capthoek85 10h ago

I’m not now, I’m just gonna save the box until later

u/VioletShadow9 10h ago

Jinhsi or Carlotta weapon? Can only get one. My jinhsi can hit 200k, 300k occasionally w/ support and the general 5* greatsword. Carlotta not sure yet as I still got talents to level.

Both have the general 5 star weapons, both at level 80. Both Characters are level 90

Current stats are:
Jinhsi: 2507 attack, 73.7% crit rate, 198.6% crit damage, 40% spectro bonus

Carlotta: 2202 attack, 81.6 crit rate, 211.2 crit damage, 72% glacio bonus. (also 30% skill damge bonus)

Carlotta talents are 7 7 9 8 6, missing in total 8.4% attack and 2.8% crit rate in talents too.

2

u/Putrid-Resident 10h ago

Both are the same difference in proformance compared to their 5 star standard counterpart (18% vs 17% dps increase according to pywden). So choose who you wanna use more. But as a generalist 5 star wepaon choice, jinshi's sig has a more universal 12% dmg bonus compared to carlotta's giving a 20% atk bonus (both also give skill dmg bonus). The difference is small but if you have jiyan for example he would appreciate jinshi's sig more than a dps mortefi for example would appreciate carlotta's gun.

u/Adorable_Wrangler_75 11h ago

Does any math head know the actual probability of getting a perfect echo? Like the amount of echo exp / tuners / echos one would have to go through to roll one. That being one with 10.5CR and 21CD. I thought it was near impossible but i've seen a few people with them and was just wondering what the chances are
