So it’s impressive to me that they managed to design her in such a way that is unique from other Hydro characters while also being just as strong as one expects an Archon to be.

I've been using mika, yelan and venri in wriothesley's team [I use r3 scara bell and +13 E skill mika for speed freeze.] After replacing venti with furina, it's just insane! Mika is honestly really good in a speed comp if they are using furina

[@kittenlord0571]

The combination of Furina and Mika has made physical teams much better as well! As I Freminet main, I had been using a team that consisted of Mika, Fischl, Xingqiu, and of course Freminet. Xingqiu didn't fit very well on the team, but with Bennet c6 my options were limited, but when Furina came out and I put her on my team, the synergy between her and Mika increased my damage significantly, and I finally felt like I'd made a good team for Freminet!

While my time so far this patch has been spent building Furina, I've been super excited to give Freminet a try once I'm done. Furina's buffs are incredibly potent for those mediocre physical characters like Freminet (and to a lesser extent, Razor, because Razor has Thundering Furry) thanks to her ability to buff both their elemental damage and their physical damage, so they can run attack% cups and genuinely become dual-element DPS. I'm not expecting him to be god-tier or anything, I just think it'll be a neat team that isn't total garbage!

She may not have been the best option in those, but versatile enough to be doable with less compromises. Furina enabled that versatility to shine.

[@bjornnilsson2941]

I built my c6 Noelle so fast when Furina dropped. I legit think she rivals Itto's damage now and is a full on healer and tank at the same time.

I’m definitely happy for Koko getting well deserved buff and happy Jean finally have a solid role besides early game healer, Noelle is definitely the biggest surprise her shield is both her best and worst gimmick due to its long cooldown and her team heal requiring her to be on field but now we actually have a reason to optimize her DPS build.

[@Menageryl]

Noelle’s ascension passive results in a 1 second less on the shield cooldown per four hits she does. Especially if you charge attack with large mobs… You can essentially end up with a permanently up shield if you give her enough field time and play her right.

[@GentleIceZ]

8:08 Also forgot Mika. Not that I blame you but it is a shame he wasn't mentioned in this video since he not only has the insta-heal, but he also has a regen effect when the active character attacks after his burst is cast plus he gives an attack speed boost That's the one thing I always loved about Mika's design; sure, he's made to be a physical support, but he had enough variety in his kit that he doesn't absolutely need physical carries to be useful, unlike Faruzan, Gorou and Sara

I would also like to add that Noelle can comfortably use Marechaussee Hunter when paired with Furina, effectively eliminating the need to farm for husk of opulent dreams if you dont want to (which is basically a useless domain for most characters)

[@KittyNatiquinha]

For some reason, nobody talks about these 2 details that seemed to be forgotten. -Sayu: Just like Jean, she has a party heal in the burst activation, just smaller. But maybe people are forgetting that one of her passives allow her to heal every time she swirls while on-field. So if you give her a ton of EM, can't she just keep rolling, swirling and healing? -Barbara: Besides her burst, yall are forgetting that, when her melody loop is active, her normal and charged attacks will heal all party members. So it's literally Kokomi and Noelle exept she only needs her skill! I can imagine that this healing is smaller, but it's still pretty good and her burst can make up for It. Please do correct me if i'm wrong, but I believe those two should definely get more attention.

[@anishkhatavkar3178]

Furina's burst is active for ~20 seconds, where you need to generate max fanfare stacks to gain a 75% attack bonus. Sayu isn't being talked about because to gain those fanfare stacks, she needs to be on field. Same with barbara. If you're on field with your healers, kinda takes away from the damage that a DPS can do in that time.

[@KittyNatiquinha]

@@anishkhatavkar3178 Yeah, but then why is Kokomi being talked about? Because she's being build for damage right? Then Barbara can kinda become a cheap Kokomi (we all know how scary dps barbara can be). As for Sayu, i'm putting her on a team *as* the on fielder, with a bunch of EM so she can keep rolling in her Sonic form!

[@BeaneChunz]

Back when I still had the clam set for Barbara, her healing via slapping water with her ES on is insane enough to consistently proc the maximum 30k dmg of the clam set's bubble. Her on-field healing is a lot, easily top 2-3 in the game. However, being an on-field healer is not the meta, hence people forgor about her

[@danish2.012]

Furina buffs also this one knight of favonius that is forgotten by almost everyone, Mika. I saw mika being mostly forgotten bcs his kit wasn't as supportive as other supports in terms of dmg buffering and boost. He could only greatly perform in physical teams. THANKS TO FURINA, which greatly buffs healers who can heal teamwide, mika gets significantly buffed thanks to his burst kit that heals the entire team when the active character deals normal attack dmg. He can shine outside physical teams like in NA spammers teams like yoimiya, wanderer and wriothesley. Don't underestimate the atk speed boost he gives, the dmg increase is quite big and more satisfying to see. Combined with the sheer destruction of atk speed boost and his great synergy with furina's burst, my dps especially wanderer can deal big and satisfying surging dmg to the opponents around. He may not be around jean level who can take advantage of VV shred that is busted but at least he can offer satisfying atk speed boost.

4:08 I always used kokomi as my main DPS but now the Monohydro team actually requires her to fit into that role Koko is truly one of the best units of all time, from being shitted on upon debut to finding her place as an amazing support and now, a main dps in a meta team

Power creep doesn’t really exist in genshin yet as all the characters can be used to clear the hardest content in the game, there’s just better options out there.

[@flamezforthegamez1056]

@@ChristianKessler4185 Genshin was always gonna be a casual game. If it has a large mobile customer base, it will fall into the clutches of being made into a casual game. But thats not to worry, as Hoyo has progressively made tougher enemies, even in overworld. The release of local legends after Consecrated Beasts made their debut summarizes it. First Vivianne and Ninianne hitting so hard they clap Zhongli's shield, to Rocky with his atomic punches and Liam the overloading concoction master showing us whose boss. With Natlan, the nation presiding over war, we might have even common enemies being on equal level as the mitachurls while elite enemies are comparable to consecrated beasts.

[@Satellit3]

I try to pull every character for collective purposes but i've never been as glad that i pulled for someone as i've been with furina. She made every single one of my mains a ton stronger in some capacity and works with pretty much anyone and in any team. Bloom? Great, Hyperbloom? Great Vaporize? Great, Freeze? Great, Mono hydro? Great, heck she even makes geo units usable (especially noelle as said in the video). Absolutely insane character

[@-13eNnY-]

Yelan's hydro application is also fixed by her c2, along with even more DMG and ER flexibility from the constellations.

[@nievesofficial]

I’m so glad I invested in Jean way ahead of time, her and Furina are my power duo

[@kyokajiro1808]

i pulled for baizhu for 3 reasons: it unconditionally heals all party members with their skill (for afk coop members) as nobody else fills this niche at all i'm a completionist and want all characters my main team is nibloom making baizhu a perfect fit (albeit yaoyao works just as well)

[@enutrofdude]

Just saying hello to my fellow Nibloom + Baizhu-enjoying character-collecting completionist colleague. When I'm not running Nahida + Nilou + Yaoyao + Yelan, I often go with Nahida + Kuki + Baizhu + Yae. Seems ridiculous for a healer, but I have Baizhu in the Marechaussee Hunter set w/ Lost Prayer catalyst. He'll often spam normal attacks when teammate skills are active.

[@Tai-Lung]

I was so excited for kokomi when she first got announced as she looks very cute, and i was hoping she would be a catalyst dps but she turned out to be catalyst healer but now atleast i can play her on field which is more like DPS to me.

[@ryluthy]

I fully cleared this abyss with Noelle, I'm so happy I got redhorn for her, now she is actually a really strong for AOE dmg and still good single target thanks to furina and Yelan doing so much dmg. one thing so note is def goblet is way better than Geo dmg for her not only because furina gives so much dmg % but also because if furina and Yelans max hp is high you need high def (since Noelle's heal is based on def) to heal enough to gain fanfare quickly, it can still be Geo dmg but you will need more def % stats to properly heal. edit: unless you're using whiteblind since it gives alot of def% already

[@carlosleite7011]

This is because you are using Redhorn which gives only 28% DEF, but also gives normal and charged attack damage based on 40% of DEF, so the extra scaling made DEF goblet better. But for a F2P, a Whiteblind R5 will give 51.7% DEF + 48% DEF from passive, so i think Geo Goblet will be better in this situation.

[@diziwiz3887]

I’ve A/B tested a geo and def goblet with comparable substats on my mono hydro Furina team with Redhorn Noelle and geo bonus still does a wee bit more dmg. Of course it’s nearly impossible for 2 artifacts to have the exact same substats so ymmv. The DEF goblet gave my Noelle 111 more ATK, 398 more DEF, and 1.2% more crit rate with no change in crit dmg and the Geo goblet still did a teensy bit more dmg. My Noelle is on 4pc Glad tho. I can see how the math might shake out differently with the geo dmg bonus from Archaic Petra or the def boost from Husk tipping the scales.

[@ryluthy]

@@diziwiz3887 might be because my testing, I'm using c2 furina, I should've tested more and prefaced this in my original comment. They are about equal in dmg but the extra healing makes it worth to go for the more common def goblet imo

[@diziwiz3887]

@@ryluthy Bigger heals for more Furina stacks definitely would make the pairing more comfy. I reckon it really depends on how much def Noelle has from other sources. I’ve found that shooting for ~2k is plenty. Going too far over that starts to run into diminishing returns. At its peak, my Noelle’s def was over 2400, but over the years I’ve whittled it down to 1800 and the stats I traded for that contributed to a boatload of extra dmg.

[@ryluthy]

@@diziwiz3887 I agree, I honestly might have oversold def goblet in my original comment now seeing your points. However, I will still add another point though just for discussion, the more def on Noelle the stronger you're shield is and you also take less dmg to the shield with higher def. Some of the abyss enemies hit really hard and can actually break your shield making it so you no longer heal and you get interrupted. Thus with higher def you can focus on just doing dmg no need to dodge. But hey if you have more fun with higher dmg build I can't blame you, I like dmg too! I dont have my c0 Gorou built so I dont have that def buff sadly, was gonna build him after I get cons or finish other characters. RN I use Yunjin or Albedo with Noelle Edit: this is still with redhorn so I benefit of its passive too so my bias toward def may be due to this, I also have a geo dmg build but with lots of def substats instead of CD I like Noelle to be a unkillable tank

[@weregretohio7728]

I gotta build my Jean and possibly revive Noelle... sigh. And now I want Baizhu, but that would wipe out the remaining gems. Sigh. Quite a few people still think Furina is overrated, but even a blind man can see how much stronger she makes even underbuilt units.

[@NoGoodIdeas]

As a person who runs a jean main dps, good luck.

[@ZariLutus]

Im pretty sure most of the people still calling her overrated just want to justify skipping her and probably care about meta a bit too much. But like…you dont need to justify it. Ive skipped Kazuha multiple times and I’ve been fine

[@tierlis422]

Just wanted to add that Ganyu really received a huge buff as well. Now, she can fully utilize the size of her Celestial Shower in Freeze comps because Furina provides hydro application without attacking. I would would even put Ganyu above a couple on this list.

[@omnipresent_lightbulb]

I'm enjoying this video so far, but i have to correct you on one point (4:28), Kokomi scales with healing bonus only and not incoming healing bonus. It still helps with the fanfare points generation, but these two stats are not to be confused with one another.

[@twistedfate9475]

I think there is a misinformation here , Kokomi doesn't scale with incoming healing, she scale with healing bonus so Furina doesn't increase Kokomi damage that way .

[@kaito9836]

I don't think he ever said Furina increases her damage? He just implied that Kokomi heals even more than before, making the team pretty much invunerable (whilst killing his Kazuha on screen💀)

[@chokeolatte]

The dmg bonus on Furina burst buffs Kokomi.

[@PerfectChaos7]

@@kaito9836 At 4:28, he specifically says that Kokomi's damage gets strengthen by Incoming Healing Bonus, which is plain false.

[@DonKangolJones]

Despite having a fully built Kokomi, Baizhu and Yao Yao, Jean is my favourite healer to use with Furina. Shes so satisfying to use with that massive boost of healing. Also, it's really fun to watch her hit things with Fleuve Cendre.

[@lunasquib]

Me who mains Kokomi as a sub-dps since her first banner I see this as yet another absolute win

[@michaelman90]

Charlotte also has instant party-wide healing. She's basically Barbara but better in every way, having a lot of fun with her and she's a potential partner with Furina in freeze teams if you don't have or don't want to use Jean.

Jean was my first 5 star. I loved using her but as i progressed she started falling off hard...specially when i got zhongli. And now she's the bis healer for the strongest team in the game. It feels like a breath of fresh air with a hint of nostalgia. Love it

[@j.k.6200]

Honestly Thanks to getting Furina I need to speed up my plans to rebuild my Noelle. She was my first dps, and even then she was pretty much indestructible, though doing time challenges woth her were a bit painful, especially those requiring fighting enemies. And I've wanted to rebuld her ever since I've got her c6, though there were always other units in the pipeline. Now, I've got a valid reaso to swipe enemies again like in good ol' days . Riht after I finsh building my Furina ofc ;)

[@coohippo]

I'll never understand the Noelle hate in this game lol. She can literally shield, heal, and do damage (yes, good dmg, not low dmg like this video implies lol). Do people not like that she's a maid or something?? Like, I honestly, legit don't understand why some people say she's bottom tier. Is it just because she's Geo and Geo doesn't have reactions. I would love for someone to explain why she's bottom tier without forgetting that she's also a shielder and a healer. DPS, shields, and healing. Let's not forget that please lol

[@TenchiHawkwing]

She isn't and never was bottom tier. Vars says lots of things that are wrong.

haha as a former kokomi main from her very first release I am so glad that people started to appreciate her more over time

[@TheDjdeath45]

[@michaelmi5292]

I think Barbara is also buffed and more cost efficient than kokomi; you get here for free and her constellations patch up the shortage of her hoop not regenerating healing. Additionally, if you get the sixth constellation, you basically get a ‘invinciblity card’😊

[@GohanXGAMERYT]

Kind of related but I feel like Yanfei has been greatly benefited from Fontaine, she got a new viable artifact set and 2 new weapon options that both pair well with Furina

[@soumya6759]

i used the koko team to clear abyss, and i just could not believe how such a team which looked absurd on paper just did that. I specifically had to increase her burst level for the team

[@TwinkleStar707]

While not as powerful, Barbara can also be used as a sort of “Kokomi lite” in that by just activating her skill and auto attacking, she heals the entire party. It gives her some more use and while maybe not optimal, it’s something for people that really like Barbara or people who can’t really afford the other team, since 3 premium 5 stars is pretty expensive.

[@italomorais9424]

Kokomi was already used as a on-fielder on some teams. Like thoma burgeon or some versions of nilou. Mono is hydro is a nice addition to her repertoire tho.

[@Zwallu]

I'm glad Hoyo found a way to make Furina an incredible unit. I always saw hydro as the best and most "competitive" element in the game. All the best units for some roles were all in the hydro element so in my mind I thought the only way she could be powerful was through power-creeping one of these units. However this is far from the case as she has synergy with all these hydro units which makes her so so good.

[@KategariYami]

8:43 Correction - Jean needs to be the one picking it up, so if you're playing her in a very quickswappy nature, you don't have even close to 100% uptime to that C2 Buff. I wish you could have 100% uptime but that'd be so overpowered it'd ruin the value of C6 Yunjin lol

[@yourlocalyanfei]

I’m glad Baizhu is getting the recognition he deserves. I think he was released at the wrong time just like Kaveh. Granted, Kaveh has his issues with damage and Energy, but he’s not Dori levels of bad and can be a pretty good unit.

Dendro units with Furina: UNLIMITED BLOOM

[@Grief111]

No joke, the Noelle team is so comfy to play. I use Yelan/Furina/Kazuha combo and it wipes the abyss...mostly because the shear amount of damage those three are doing with Furina's buff. It's a very flexible team as well for the fourth slot. Furina and Yelan are locked in, but that fourth slot can be Yun Jin, Gorou, Xingqiu, Fischl, etc.

[@Kuddochan]

Wouldn’t even say Yelan is a must inclusion really, going Albedo + Gorou + Furina is also pretty similar performance. I tested a bunch of different variations with Noelle with different geo and hydro combinations and honestly all of it works. Mostly just a matter of how the single target vs AoE requirements are and how much hydro app you think you need for shieldbreaking purposes

[@Grief111]

I didn't consider that because I have Albedo, but that's a very good point.

[@Name_is_unavailable]

I think players in general greatly overlook the defensive units in terms of their synergy with Furina (besides healers of course). When there is a constant health drain on your units, your team might feel really frail and frustrating to play. If you don't have skill issue and know how to dogde, this wouldn't be a problem, but i don't, which is why i think Xingqiu (and to some extent Dehya) benefits from Furina's introduction (as well as benefit her) almost, if not as much as Yelan

[@NrdDy]

People don’t consider defensive units because healers exist.

[@Name_is_unavailable]

@@NrdDy Yes, but most healers don't provide resistance to interuption, so once you're staggered, it's very easy for you to just die instantly because your health isn't full

Xinqiu feels better than yelan but yelan deals more damage. It comes down to preference i guess (i definetly prefer Xinqiu>Yelan for Furina teams).
