As a geo lover, seeing the low effort put into her kit pains me. Like they couldn't even give her ult an additional effect 😕...

[@anokage7403]

For real. Actually makes me mald every time we get a new geo character and HYV conveniently forgets that ZL is still, to this day, the only geo unit that has geo shred in their baseline kit. They locked it away behind C4 for Navia and outside that it's ZL or bust. Achieving 40% shred shouldn't require massive 5* investment or marriage to a specific unit nearly 4 years into the game's life. Gorou's skill should've been geo shred at 3 geo units instead of more geo bonus dmg, and Chiori should've shredded geo res for 10s or so after burst. So many missed and wasted opportunities.

[@jyusatsu]

Same sentiment like they could have even added to her ult like increase X% damage of geo constructs/resonance. I know it's sh*t but at least that's something 😕

[@dgmojojojo]

Even a simple minuscule attack speed bonus to team after ult or giving resistance for 10 seconds would do wonder but MHY too lazy to cook

[@dazzle810]

tbh id rather her ult not do damage at all and just like heal or buff or something

[@MsDestroyer900]

​@@anokage7403you get inherently 20% geo res shred via geo resonance. With zhongli thats already 40% res shred... On top of the res shred has crazy diminishibg returns once it reaches negatives. Geo dmg bonus from gorou is a lot more damage for mono geo teams since enemies have a default 10% elemental res.

What i would have loved for them to do is to have made her and albedo(or any other geo) into what xingqiu-yelan , bennet-xiangling or furina-healer is in general. A strong core you can slap in most teams. Thats what geo needs to not feel stagnant.

[@luckiestluck819]

wouldve been a smart way of getting more people to buy albedo, but sadly albedos small geo construct getting destroyed would not be fun, i dont understand why they dont make enemies phase through albedo elevator instead of breaking it, unlike zhongli pillar, albedos skill is very small

[@lesibalto1016]

@@luckiestluck819 they could have made chiori capable of making constructs stronger or heck, regenerate one once its destroyed. That could help in instances when big enemies just walk and destroy zhongli's pillars as part of animation as well as leave the door open for future geo constructs.

[@christianmoraes7206]

I mean thats kinda exactly what she is, the geo core previously was albedo zhongli and u could slap that in many teams like hutao or xiao. Now chiori just takes albedos spot, probably not as strong of a core as the others u mentioned but definitely still strong regardless

[@vignesh306]

​@@christianmoraes7206 "geo core was previously albedo zhongli" ICANT I've never seen them referred to as "geo core" lmao, they're flexible geo units that can be slotted into teams that have a free slot, for survivability (zhongli) or a bit of extra damage (albedo)

[@lucasayabe]

@@christianmoraes7206 the idea of the comment wasn't this, is about 2 characters that sinergises really well, that make use both of them together in a team much stronger than use than separate. Albedo was a sub-dps flex slot and Zhongli was there because of shield, so you aren't using them together bcoz they fit well together, was more for geo ressonance than other thing.

I no longer think it is a conspiracy that characters are actively made worse when they release around the Lantern Rite timeframe.

It's easy to figure out. Overhyped Star Rail edgy Raiden will be released just a week later, devs purposely move attention to her (playerbases intersect a lot). 4.6 will be the other way around: overhyped girl in a suit in Genshin and some fillers in HSR.

As much as people want to deny it, whether a character is considered strong or not is a huge factor into how their sales perform.

[@takimi_nada]

@@fzhs7030 the fact is that people don't stop playing genshin/whaling/buying welkin when a mid unit releases. a banner can underperform as much as it wants, as long as mihoyo makes a furina or (i'm sure) arlecchino, they won't lose much. i'm almost completely sure that they plan for poor sales for some characters, otherwise they'd try to make dehya better than what she was at release. also chiori's worst issue is not even her constellation-locked gameplay, and not her dmg output. her biggest problem is that they put barely any effort into her kit or animations past what's necessary.

[@EkkusuHayate]

Honestly I feel pretty good about her and she really feels like an upgrade over Albedo. And since I play Itto/Zhongli/Chiori/Gorou - instantly using skill as Gorou actually smoothens the rotation, as before particles from E get to Gorou I can use his burst and switch to Itto. The main complaint I have is about her doll attack animations and effects, they indeed feel lackluster.

[@ShinySwalot]

My first impressions are completely different from Zajeff, I expected hell and she's doing way more damage than I anticipated and the switching is so smooth (and ofc she's beautiful af) Ofc she's still only gonna be used in the overworld for me, if only for the fact I have barely any Geo chars lmao

[@Andrewkin77]

To be honest, I don’t have any issues with her E. There’s a clear visual indication when it’s time to hit skill button again and there’s enough delay to hit the button a couple of times without it triggering next character’s ability (I play on PS5). If anything, I think her skill feels smooth and satisfying. And I don’t get the complaint about her animations either. It looks like any other off field character? Like Yae, Fischl or Albedo. Her dolls move their “hands” when they attack, so it’s not like they’re standing still. Her best animations though are undoubtedly her NAs. I think they might be my favorite in the whole game in terms of both looks and how it feels to use them. A shame that they’re useless without C6

[@Andrewkin77]

@spidebot3045 yeah, Furina is for sure better in that regard, but Chiori has a visual indication too. To me it looks exactly like Yae: there’s a visual indication on the turret and then on the enemy I’m not claiming Chiori has the best skill animations ever, just that to me it seems in line with what we got so far

I get that may not be for everyone but it is for me, and no I’m not coping I just really like how she’s designed

[@101PointBlank101]

If you have good placement with Albedo's flower - she's still an upgrade over him, but not big enough to justify pulling for. Also, the visual effects on Albedo's isotoma are a lot better than whatever animations and effects Chiori has got going on

[@traplegend5065]

finally getting a mono geo character is fun for mono geo, but darn I wish she was a healer sub dps.

[@impostorsyndrome1350]

That pain in Zajef's eyes :D

[@thearchivist250]

I am heavily invested in Noelle and Navia and was really excited about Chiori…until I discovered she requires geo constructs at C0 to do real damage. I don’t care about the other characters on the banner. Pass.

[@xanaviii]

Saaame. I was ready to spend all my primos for her + weapon, because I would love to have a good 2nd geo for Navia. The moment I saw how they purposefully gimped their synergy and locked it to C1, I gave up on her. Her C1 is such trash design. It's literally only a dmg increase for Noelle and Navia teams, and barely does anything for anything else.

[@Pheonee]

I mean she still does damage at C0 even without a construct. Adding another doll is about a 40% dps increase, which is a lot, but it's not like she's unplayable without it

[@xanaviii]

@Pheonee the problem isn't if she's unplayable or not. C1 is a problem because it specifically only targets this interaction. I would be less mad if C1 actually added a third doll instead. Chiori C0 was designed with the idea to have a geo construct as a requirement. C1 removes this interesting quirk of her kit, and does almost nothing for Itto teams.

[@christianmoraes7206]

Shes still good in those teams even at c0

[@xanaviii]

@christianmoraes7206 you're missing the point. C0 Chiori is perfectly fine and a worthy character to pull. But C1 should not do what it does. I'd rather there NOT be a solution to making Navia work with Chiori "better". It hurts the uniqueness of Chiori's gameplay design. And it's of the most blatantly exploitative character design choices Mihoyo has done to date.

[@stewie_]

That doll's face is so accurate to represent the character state 😂😂😂

[@sata700]

The problem with the 2 mentioned issues, they can be both fixed by making character swapping activate her skill

[@JFrog12]

Personally, The switch to next character mechanic is good. It lets the genshin team play around more with team order and is a new thing to get used to, making chiori more unique. This sort of mechanic is something they can expand upon to make team rotations tighter and mkre interesting

[@lilliarunebell609]

I just pulled her, and the thing that i appreciate the most is that her burst potential during the initial 4 seconds of her rotation is pretty crazy, Q EE + 2x talent trigger is so much motion value in such a tight rotation for a pure off field dps

constructive feedback: in the future, instead of calling it a 1st impressions, call it a "One & Done" ex: "Chiori Made me Close Genshin And Do My Taxes | Chiori - One & Done Overview" feels like that gets the message across in the title, idk just a suggestion. watching the rest of the video now

Unlike Albedo who can't do anything against shielded. Chiori can, its a win for me.

[@someoneoutthere4844]

The potion making event is pretty neat though, I haven't had that much fun on an event for a while now. It's just another mini game event but this one is neat cuz it doesn't hold your hand and lets you experiment on things as well as keeping things ambiguous enough that you feel rewarded if you explore how you arrange the potions.

[@Axterix13]

The "use the next char's E" thing is an issue I had as well, though with Ning in my case. It's painful when fighting a boss and you lose your wall, weakening your burst. The swap also has a tendency to get your character hit, if done at ground level. You dash from out of range into range, enemy swings, as you swap and do another E, and you get hit. Ultimately, my solution to this was to change the team order, so that now Yae goes after Chiori. Yae's turrets don't poof, and she moves backwards, reducing the risk of getting hit. Overall, I think it is a matter of finding which character's E feels best to use as a follow-up for her, and to be sure to stay clear of one where placement/timing matters more. If your team has that right option, it feels great. If it doesn't, it feels bad. And even if you build the muscle memory to not do that follow up E, it loses you that smooth feeling, becoming more like just a regular character swap. The other way to work around it is to air launch with the E. The new character won't be able to use the E in the air, so the muscle memory won't matter. But then you do want a plunge attack worth using. But hey, considering I expected forced character swap to feel bad, that I have ways I enjoy it means I'm actually happy with it overall.

[@tokenname1932]

The first issue is something I foresaw, but was fortunate with as she perfectly fit into my Navia team - Albedo used to sit in slot 3, so mashing E gives me an insanely clean transition into Bennett's EQ. The second I don't really see, because in what way is it different from Albedo? You get the same thing, the 'construct' just sitting there and splash effects on mobs.

[@alexanderminas28]

Zajef: *explains about how bad the animations are* The doll at 3:25 :

[@KillMarnoc]

I made an oath to collect all Inazuman characters and their personal weapons, so.. Honestly though her attack animations and bust animation are sick, I can take the dolls looking a bit basic. In the frenzy of abyss, animations rarely register to me but when I'm focused on enjoying a character, testing everything out for fun, the animations form a kind of personality for that character that informs my appreciation of them as a "character." Like, is it important that Furina does a cheeky smile after her 3rd auto? No. But I love her all the more for it.

[@lisausalad3631]

its funny how a character that was teased and was in an event months ago still feels this rushed and unfinished (love her tho, she makes my days brighter

[@mikrikbe]

I got Chiori and... I don't know man... I like albedo more... He's male and to me he's more impactful in non-geo teams because of his EM buff (I wish his passive for EM would last longer) I still farming for her so I'll see, but even in geo teams I don't see place for her. I love play geo teams, but I don't like play Itto and Noelle, and I couldn't find any teams for Navia with her. So I guess I'll just wait untill new geo characters release... Btw I like her overall design and her skill animations is more an upside for me because you don't need to track her abilities unlike Fischl's. I would like to Oz be more visible than her Tomatos. But her E swap is kinda pain in the ass for me because I place my characters in team in 1-4-3-2-1 order so after Chiori I want to swap to next char in my rotation but swapping for previous... And also I'm spamming her E and in Itto teams you want Q first and then E on Itto

[@theysisossenthime]

I love that we have another Geo character whose constructs don't get destroyed by enemies. That's a big plus. She may have better damage than Albedo, but the constructs not getting destroyed is really what sets her apart in my mind. On the other hand, when I tried her in the trial, I had to stop attacking and just watch the dolls to tell if they were doing anything. While I am sure I could get use to that, not having any clear visual indicator on the range of the turrets is a deal breaker to me. Again, I'm sure I could get it down eventually. But that was the biggest turn off on the character for me.

[@pon9035]

Her doll doesn't count as geo construct tho-

[@yoiko89]

If you have two dolls it can hit different enemy at same time (big points if your building crystalized DPS unit)

[@sehajpreet7088]

[@SeoxLeuem]

Love that Chiori has synergy with geo constructs like Zhongli. Now imagine if they fix geo constructs' problems...

[@kazuhah1743]

why don't you go Chiori -> Gorou -> Itto because Gorou goes EQ and mashing the E button is harmless. But yes the real problem is the terrible keyboard interface of the PC version that constantly eats key presses

I just needed a geo unit that is consistent in navia teams, unlike zhongli, so i'm happy. She definitely could have been made better, but i'll take it.

[@musicaddict9058]

Interestingly enough, the auto swap makes it possible to shorten the rotation by a second compared to zhongli, so it ends up being a pretty nice damage increase even at C0.

[@reactiondavant-garde3391]

@@musicaddict9058 It is pretty nice, you need to positional well but having imaddiate Navia skill shot is pretty nice. Though with Navia I had always problem with too short roation, she hvae very short rotations already.

I mean, to fix the botton mashing into itto skill problem, you could put chiori before gorou. But still, i feel you. I always like to have my dps in my 1st slot and my off-field dps/healer on my last slot so it does fuck with your brain a lot

[@bromegaman5962]

Well Gorou buffs her, so going from Gorou to Chiori is better for her.

[@TravelerSaniar]

@bromegaman5962 her skill doesn't snapshot so it doesn't really matter. I don't know if gotou buffs off-field characters. If it does, then she will get the buff even if she skills before gorou. If it doesn't, than buffing her for 1 second doesn't really matter

[@bromegaman5962]

@@TravelerSaniar He buffs her burst too. The flat defense buff from his skill/burst buffs the on-field character's defense. His talent buffs the whole team's defense. Plus he gives Geo% and with C6 he gives crit damage. So using his buffs before Chiori would still be better. Though after thinking about it, it could be more convenient to do Chiori skill swap->Gorou abilities->back to Chiori to Burst->Swap to Itto. She would still get Gorou's buffs on her burst and some skill hits but you wouldn't have to worry about her swap messing up with Itto.

[@AKDE83]

for me, she buffs my favorite team AND i got pretty lucky on the banner so i'm not mad, but she is definitely underwhelming with a boring kit and ugly ass dolls, i'm just happy my itto comp is complete and will perform well cause she does do good damage

[@conorclancy6291]

She's kinda what you thought she'd be though, an Albedo upgrade/sidegrade. The animations aren't great but 🤷‍♂️ I'm surprised the tone is so disappointed when she's exactly what you forecast in the prerelease, and you seemed pretty optimistic there. The title and thumbnail are a lot lol.
