Hey Jelly As a off field supporter youve done a good guide Jello, But bit disapointed you didnt cover her On Field DPS build more as she can do massive damage. Current world record for her DMG is nearly 800k. but no clue on that persons build. For an On Field DPS Ive been maining Beidou from the moment ive gotten her. Love her to Bits. Here is some of the things ive found and im sure your Wife would appreciate this Info too as i know she love her too First point energy procker. Electro Traveller or Sara is great. Can use Fischl but not a fan of her play style. I Personally use Electro Traveller for Energy if i need more. Beidou to run as a solo electro unit ull want min 150 ER 180 to be really comfortable Teams Ive found to work the best with her are based on Characters i have Traveller, Bennet, Mona Traveller, Rosaria, Yelan Traveller/Sara, Bennet, Sucrose (Unfortunately i dont have Kazuha, Lost 50/50 to Keqing *cries*) Sara, Bennet, Mona/Yelan Rosaria, Bennet, Yelan Ive not mentioned Xingqui as im still building him so cant say with any certianty if he will synergize as well as Mona or Yelan For any form of Bloom Team ive not tested extensive there as i only have 2 dendro charcaters besides traveller (Yaoyao and Collie) and none of them are built. Weapons For on Field DPS best weapon if The Unforged because of the 100% dmg boost when her shield is up. So for peak dmg solo - attack and enemy 5 times to get the 4% x5 atk boost then Burst to get the Shield up for a total of a 120% atk boost, then Perfect Parry when attacked. 4 star options - Serpent Spine, Fish, Prototype Artifacts Top Recommended 4pc Emblom of severed fate ( a set im working on right now) Second recommened 2pc Thundering Fury/ 2pc Gladiators Finale Atk Sands, EDB Goblet And Crt Rt/DMG Circlet Crown Both Skill and Burst if you can, if you cant just crown Skill. I went all in C6 Trip Crown Beidou. And take note of her talents they scales of both HP and ATK, Sweet Spot seems for be 2300 ATK and HP anything over 20K is helpful :) Hope you and your wife find this information helpful

[@newgate-zerohour]

Love to see Beidou get some recognition, she totally deserves it

[@Lewy94999]

16:38 Beidou's perfect parry doesn't proc the second ATK% passive on the Beacon, because the shield she creates with her skill absorbs the damage. That passive requires the character to actually lose HP from the enemy's attack. The only time her skill will proc that passive is when the attack is strong enough to get through her E shield.

[@ShinySwalot]

Al Haitham Nahida Beidou Kuki is legit one of my fav teams in the game, it's so comfy with the Beidou shield and resistance to interruption

[@MrMonklad]

for those looking to build Beidou and struggling to choose her weapon, the 4-star Inazuma Craftable claymore the "Katsuragikiri Nagamasa" actually does a lot to help her ER needs without sacrificing a lot of damage at base and even more so at high refinement, it's what I use on her and I'm getting away with only 160 ER at R1.

[@VastChoirs]

I mained beidou in the start of the game and loved it. She's so fun to use and play with. I think one great thing about her is that she's useful even with very low investment; if you're level 80 with a 4 star instructor set or just random substat emblem set, she still contributes a ton to the team. Running her in hyperbloom with fischl, yaoyao, and Neuvillette right now.

[@themaladaptiveotter]

Beidou is incomparable in 2-or-more enemy situations. Imagine if we have a character who synergizes with her and enables her chain lightning unconditionally e.g., an electro character that can summon a totem that works like a lightning rod for other chars. That would undoubtedly boost beidou’s overall abyss usage, and makes for a fun team setup.

My first main and I’m still using her today ❤

[@bigblue4364]

"If Raiden could work with her" Raiden's burst doesn't work with her burst, but she does cover literally everything else.

[@MrAidenBlaine]

When activating Fischl's burst, if there is only 1 target and no need to stay in the bird form for the entire duration of the burst, you can cancel it early with no downside by switching to a different character. When using Neuvellette's charge attack while there are at least 3 water droplets in range you can shorten the cast time from 1 second to nearly instant by charging and releasing the charge attack the instant it converts from regular attack to charge attack instead of holding for the entire 1 second. You can "perfect block/parry" with Beidou's skill by tapping instead of holding just before an attack connects to her, this will instantly charge the resulting slash to the maximum charge level without having to hold or wait. You can tell it activated properly because the resulting slash will be much bigger than a regular tap and the screen will become dark for the duration of the slash.

[@Shane_A_M]

Returning to this since Beidou might be good with Clorinde to supplement her sustain. I can’t wait to see you test them together.

[@chinhcui1481]

she's pretty powerful in this abyss right now since the enemy come in waves with 2-3 at a time

[@frankydiamondz]

Nice work my dude ! ❤ it . Keep on keeping on . I enjoy your content the most so thanks for being that guy

[@molybdnum]

I like the counter-shield concept, I like the taser team archetype, I have Beidou at C4 and enjoy her character writing and VA... I'll build her teams when she gets a skin and we see how a couple upcoming Fontaine characters suit her.

[@kazekori9593]

I think Beidou's main problem is single bosses which she does like 20% as well against.

[@braddl9442]

Yup, its the single target situation. She is at her best verse 2 or more enemies at once.

[@samuellinn]

This is why currrent abyss is probably the best abyss for Beidou. All the bosses are on the second half and all the mobs are on the first half. On top of that there are plenty of pyro shield that beidou excels in breaking especially in a taser comp. The abyss lectors don't stand a chance.

[@Ostrid1]

And at the same time fighting bosses with her is the most fun thing ever because of the perfect parries.

[@picapica8266]

But she can stack Buffs like Bennet's atk Burst that's Benneficial to her ! 😎

[@Pineapple343]

so what if you use her with navia and since navia is a nuke against single bosses wouldnt that be a good team?

[@Opti-Miser]

I Think beidou is underrated because the strongest part of her kit (her burst) does a lot of medium sized hits that can be hard to pay attention to and see. (Same idea with her electro charged and aggravate teams that do a lot of damage instances) With a character like xiangling its wayyy easier to tell how much damage you're doing at a glance, so people are more likely to judge them properly!

[@UzzyB945]

My Chad Queen getting her due recognition.

[@MrSemperEaden]

As a big Souls fan, i love parrying mechanics in games, and i used her for a very long time only for this. But the ennemies aren't aggressive enough to enjoy it without waiting 30 seconds to get a parry each time in open world. I wish a 5* parry character would release, with 3/4 charges of parries ( skill ), and the passive would increase the ennemies attack rate. It'd definitely not be one of the best but i'd enjoy it a lot.

[@studiesinflux1304]

I came from Phantasy Star Online 2 and yeah, the parrying is nowhere near as developed in Genshin. From what I see, a lot of enemies aren’t designed with parry gameplay in mind with either wind ups that are too short, no rhythm to attacks, or so many attacks that you cannot weave parries and dashes to evade/counter an entire combo for zero hit gameplay.

[@chimezie7]

Another thing that I think made ppl stop using her is that period in Genshin where the devs made damn near every enemy run away from you as you atk so you had to chase these mfs 😅. Damn, that was an annoying period, enemies weren’t even hard just annoying bc they would just dart away from you

[@Erox006]

first i read secretly busty , and i was like nah dude , its pretty obvious with the jiggle physics and pre-censor era of cleavages ....

[@JelloImpact]

He gets it

[@Oleg-xc6kr]

some hints: one of the best her hyperbloom team is Nahida, EM Raiden, Xingqiu, Beidou. Profits: a lot of def (you already say it), resonance for energy, her ultimate chains doesn't target seeds (Raiden do it). second one - Chevreuse. With C6 Bennett she can solo trigger all reactions. Imagine team: C6 Bennett, C6 Sara, C6 Chevreuse with high investment C6 Beidou driver: Chevreuse - 40% attack for each 1k hp (just build with 40k hp), 40% shred for pyro and electro after trigger overload, heal active character means you can use great f2p weapon Tidal Shadow (~90% attack at 90/R5) and with C6 each heal stack 20% dmg bonus for pyro and electro for 8 sec up to 3 stacks (maybe EM goblet/sands can be useful)... With buffs from Bennett and Sara... just one good counter and ->> passive 1 + passive 2 + C4 == charged attack spam kill machine :)

[@Arteps1]

My favorite character in the game since 1.0. I still use her to this day and is one of the most well taken care of characters in my account. I used her to 36 star the current abyss with Sucrose (Prototype amber), Furina, and Fischl.

[@ginsengaddict]

21: 35 - "no perfect partner for Beidou" There's Neuvillette. He's a perfect partner for Beidou. His charged attack procs her burst.

[@braddl9442]

Everyone just forgot about her. She was always pretty strong.

[@natalies8498]

Ahh... Beidou, my first and OG main when I first understood what having a main means, but still.. C0, so eventually had to swap to another character to run more consistently. TT_TT (Had to hold off of pulling for Furina this time around, so... I can hope she'll be back eventually on a banner I can pull.) She remains my character avatar and will stay that way for a good long while methinks if even my love for Neuvi and Nahida hasn't usurped her position as my OG fav.

[@Writingmyfuture99]

Beidou supremacy, yes mommy!!!!

[@phoenixlau]

Biggest issue is that she relies so much on Fischl to avoid diversion of stats into ER, but most of the teams you're running Fischl in would rather Beidou's slot be something else.

[@kanoaika]

1. If you can get full counters (which is not that hard tbh) she actually have very managable ER needs. While she does have an 80 cost burst like Xiangling (who needs 170+ even with Bennett batterying her) she has ok (2 particles with no full counter) to amazing (4 particles with full counter) energy generation which she can all catch while on-field. Even as the only electo unit on teams she can often get away with less ER than Xiangling needs with Bennett because she can battery herself. I currently use her wish a c0 Kuki with Yaoyao and Xingqiu on a hyperbloom team and she has more than enough energy with only 140% ER. 2. It is true that 5* electro characters like Yae or Keqing can be better as your other electro in an aggravate team, but I don't have them, and Yae is not a big enough upgrade to be worth wishing for solely based on power. tl;dr: With limited resources versatility is a form of power. The existence of another character who can do more damage in a role doesn't make Beidou any less powerful. Further Beidou is not tied to Fischl like Xiangling is to Bennett: she has good enough particle generation to be used as solo electro or with other electro characters who don't make as many particles.

[@inyostupid]

Beidou relying with fischl is so bullsh*t bcs all beidou needs is electro resonance and all electro chara can fill that role

[@viktoriyaserebryakov2755]

@@kanoaika When I'm ready for counters they never attack me. She's better at avoiding damage than Zhongli is.

[@kanoaika]

​@@viktoriyaserebryakov2755 Lol so true. That is why she works best in teams that don't penalize you for swapping. The basic idea is that with enough knowledge of enemy attack patterns you can get her requirements low at least with most enemies. But it is always going to be a balance with the type of enemies, your skill/knowledge of them, team rotation flexibility, and ER. She still deals pretty good damage when at fairly high ER (like 160-180) but the point is that she is a character that strongly rewards skill investment: both directly with damage multipliers, and indirectly with lower ER needs.

[@viktoriyaserebryakov2755]

@@kanoaika She's my first crown, I'd use her but they really just don't want to swing when she's out. Then she can't make particles to catch, then she can't keep her burst up, then the whole rotation is ruined, then I drop her other stats to increase her ER even more, then it's just not the same anymore because I dropped her attack sands for ER. Too annoying for me unfortunately, easily one of the coolest characters.

[@haseulmybeloved1134]

Thank you for this! I got Beidou in the begginer banner and ever since then i wanted to play with but didnt know how

[@crocworks]

To be more specific about why the Unforged weapon doesn't really work with Beidou, her burst snapshots before the c1 shield comes out and thus snapshots before the Unforged attack boost can happen. Also, rumor has it that a "future" event 4star claymore will be good for Beidou. Also also, for the overworld. If Beidou is standing in burning grass, you can just tap her skill and she'll guarantee a perfect parry.

[@kanoaika]

I mean it is more than just a random wishful thinking rumor now as we have leaks about one such claymore being the event weapon for 4.3. If it is not changed before release it will be by far her best general f2p option. Tidal Shadow is also really good if you get the passive (and even beats Archaic without the passive at least for my Beidou because of it's much higher atk% substat). I assume the only reason he didn't mention it was because the KQM guide (and thus most people's knowledge lol) has not been updated since 3.1.

[@jonomate]

I do love a Beidou + Al Haitham + Kuki + XQ team. Great in overworld, great in Abyss, variety in shield breaking checks. Just got to get a high ER on her, but that's why we have Emblem set to help offset a lot of the damage loss from building ER.

[@HydraneousHadokenPent-Striker]

For general discourse I disagree with the ER requirements being a con to her, she is one of the few characters where it is hyper focused as a con despite the fact that her energy requirements are no worse than basically half the cast, but she also can be teamed with Fischl or just double electro in general. Also her best 4pc set is Emblem which incentivizes ER to begin with, so I just find it being a con to be a bit exaggerated. I don't hear this ER 'con' argument being anywhere near as stigmatized on anyone else, characters like Xiangling have higher ER needs, and Xiangling needs to be glued to Bennett while Beidou has higher flexibility.

[@JelloImpact]

The thing is you often want to run Bennet anyways in teams with xiangling, so having to run him to battery her isn’t a huge deal. Whereas with beidou and fischl, you usually want kazuha or sucrose. But now you can’t run Bennet with your carry. It’s team slot syndrome. If you could run her without fischl, then she would be an incredible alternative to fischl for aoe content As is it is more awkward building around her than most.

[@HydraneousHadokenPent-Striker]

@@JelloImpact Thats fair, Xiangling Bennett is a super strong core. Though I will say Beidou definitely does not need to be paired with Fischl, Kuki or any other electro works fine for the double electro core. So I assume you mean Fischl can get run as a single electro unit in the team while Beidou can't anywhere near as easily do that. That said for dendro teams specifically, i personally prefer double electro (Beidou + Kuki) compared to a double hydro or double dendro core.

[@jimmmi7655]

[@krispiek4084]

Beidou's been my go-to electro support/sub dps since the early days. I usually run her just on 4p Emblem or Noblesse with Fav but I've never really had that much issue with her energy needs if anything I use her as a battery for others. She actually works very well with Cyno with her 15s burst duration, interruption res, damage reduction, C6 electro res shred, her not taking away Cyno's hyperblooms, and with Electro Resonance they can actually battery each other pretty well. I also use her a lot with Xingqiu as a defensive pair in place of a dedicated healer and shielder since the damage reduction between the two of them as well as Xingqiu's small bit of healing is surprisingly often enough.

[@mixesforthemasses]

I’ve been running Fischl as electro applicator, Furina as healer, Tighnari as DPS, and Beidou as off-field DPS/quick swap for parry’s. Using furina as healer, but sometimes I use her to apply hydro for hyperbloom. Otherwise, she just keeps my party alive. So it’s mainly a Spread/aggravate team. Pretty comfy play style. Though now I’m rethinking my team comp.

That is why she works best in quickswap friendly teams. You just quickswap to her when the enemy is about to attack. It is not strictly necessary to parry with her either. Just so long as you do her skill a couple of times. This greatly reduces her ER requirements.

Thanks for the video! You can use on-field Beidou with Candace, Nahida/Baizhu and Kuki/Raiden. You not only infuse Beidou's normal attacks with hydro to apply hydro for hyperbloom, but also get a buff for your infused normal attacks from Candace. You can also use your skill more often to lower your energy requirements and dodge some attacks. Raiden/Kuki also help with energy by providing electro particles. And finally Nahida provides Beidou with some EM that increases both your aggravate and electro-charged damage. You can even possibly switch to Candace to dodge some attacks with her shield sometimes. Or to Nahida if your Dendro aura expires (you'll get less hyperblooms, of course, but you'll get some agggravates and spreads and apply more dendro if needed). Is this the most powerful hyperbloom team? No. Will you be able to get 36 stars in the Abyss with this team? I don't know, but hyperbloom is broken, so it's almost certainly possible. Important note: Beidou's C4 might ruin this idea.

One way ive found myself personally using her is off field electro for Childe for 100% uptime on of electro-charged reactions during her burst

[@Naestrith]

Beidou is the first character I build, before totally understanding her kit as I was more focused on the overworld. She's also my first C6. With the arrival of Dendor, I think she had a massive power boost (as other Electro characters) and I think she's the perfect match for any Dendro NA-DPS (Alhaitham, on-field Nahida, maybe Kaveh). One of my favorite team is Beidou/Fischl/Nahida/Alhaiham (I know there's no swirl, but double resonance and C6 mitigates the lack of).

[@ambersdarkfox]

Honestly, back in the early days building Beidou around her counter was a very strong build. Quite a few people used to do that but the game has changed quite a bit since those days. There wasn't no Ganyu or Hu Tao yet so the damage you could get off of her counter was pretty spicy. I remember people standing in burning grass as a method of getting easy perfect counters.

[@alexprus7953]

I think Sacrificial Greatsword on her is underrated. It helps with her Er issues a lot and is a dmg boost with 4pc Emblem. The passive also lets her counter more, which is great against hard-hitting enemies, or elemental shields.

I made Beidou my main dps with Furina, Fischl, and Sucrose. Using The Bell and Tenacity of the Millelith as my weapon and artifact made me an invincible tank while being a dps.

While it is true that she has an 80 cost burst like Xiangling (who needs a battery and like 200% ER or more especially at low constellations) Beidou also has frontloaded particle generation and if you learn her to get full counters (which is not that difficult) her particle generation is amazing (4 electro particles she can catch directly each skill use). Because of this even teams without a battery, as long as you can swap to her and use her skill, her ER needs normally don't go above 180%. Finally as for the craftable weapon choices I don't blame you because KQM's guide (and thus most people's knowledge) hasn't been updated since 3.1, but Tidal Shadow (Fontaine Craftable) can outperform Archaic even without the passive (and thus refinements) because it's much higher atk% substat, and if Beidou is consistently getting healed before her burst, it is much better than Archaic (by 10-17% in non-Bennett teams; at r1 and r5 based on calculations with my Beidou stats) because it gives an additional 24-48% atk. Even better if you are patient, the event weapon set to come out in 4.3 looks (in my opinion) even better for her in general because it has higher base attack (same as Archaic), 30% ER substat, and 48% attack (conditional on helping Melusines). With my Beidou stats it was about 7% better than Archaic at baseline and 15% after adjusting her artifacts for the lower ER needs from substats. Basically it should outperform even Tidal shadow up to r4 with even with the passive and maybe even r5 if you have better artifacts (I'm at 45% CR and 135% CD; lots of people who have been playing longer than me or have farmed emblem more will have better stuff). tl;dr I think that it it will be her best free/accessible weapon in general because it is much better than Archaic, is not conditional on healing for its effect, and can basically match (or potentially exceed) Tidal shadow even if you have high refinement and 100% uptime on the somewhat restrictive passive.

That's my girl beidou is crazy

[@thesmashdancers105]

Love your videos!! Can you do more character guides?

[@GenshinYuppe]

i completely agree. she has always been underrated from the very beginning of the game. idk why. i've always been a noelle and geo main, but my first full party was double geo double electro, with fischl and beidou. i guess her energy hungriness and low burst duration is annoying but you can just use favonius and completely negate that downside...

[@eriksiget-rv5ff]

Low burst duration??? 15 seconds is low?

[@moxaban6907]

Beidou carried me so hard when my account was new. She came in pretty early (I think during the newbie Noelle Banner 😂) and along with traditional Taser of Sucrose, Fischl and Xingqui, they carried me so far… all the way up to AR 45. Granted, she has slowly been phased out of my main teams, she’s still level 80 with a level 80 serpent spine, so I still take her out for a spin. Very good character, my account would never have gotten that far that fast without her!

[@piro_the_cat]

Thank you, I used to have her on my main team but that was months ago and i really miss using her but kew that i wasn't using all her potential

[@brendaclemmer9946]

I use Beidou with Yaoyao, Bennett and Ayato, most of the time.

[@liiich6175]

I only built her to 70 and 6/6/6 so she will remain fun to play in over world and I love the counter mechanic she does. I wish the enemy AI was much more aggressive after playing her I notice how little we get attacked during fights. She remains my weekly boss/quest team when I want to actually experience the game and enjoy the fights

[@gachacaspa]

I probably use beidou with to much ER. She useful char but my build requires work! And i do like pairing her with raiden skill, so when my fischl built i think that will be much better alternative.

[@wizart7249]

Mine is c4 ... So I'm building her ... Feels good with Nuvelette

[@Scarletcroft]

I recently got Beidou, and I also got a wolfs gravestone claymore today on the standard banner (only 1 though). Totally by random chance, since I'm F2P. I only just started playing Genshin so I know nothing.

[@myshrinkingviolet2]

Right now, my favorite team with Beidou is Yelan, Kuki, Beidou, and Qiqi. Qiqi is my main DPS AND healer, and I use the rest as off-field. I could probably switch out Kuki with Fischl, but Kuki has been fun to use regardless in this team comp.

[@InanisNihil]

Beidou is best mommy… she needs her own trailer just cause 😂

[@KonoDmaxda]

9:24 damn this is the exact team I use Beidou on....

[@hriata168]

The thing with Shogun is that if her attack chain during her burst doesn't count as her burst her damage would just tickle

[@JelloImpact]

But it works with xingqiu 🤦 it’s pretty arbitrary

[@jimjalabeans]

@@JelloImpact XQ and Yelan burst fire off of inputting NA commands. Hence, they work with Raiden since even if her Burst autos are filed under 'Burst Damage,' she's technically inputing NA commands. The problem with Beidou, then, is that her Burst is coded to only fire off of NA/CA HITS - hence why she still works with Neuvilette. All in all, though, I remember being extremely excited to play Beidou w/Raiden when Raiden first released. It's still really weird HYV got really pedantic with how Raiden + Beidou interacts 😬

[@alpha4935]

And yet, there's an easy fix for that: Just make it so her burst deals additive burst damage on top of her normal attack damage (similarly to Yunjin's buff, Shenhe's quills and Spread/Aggravate damage), that way she simultaneously deals both normal attack damage to proc Beidou's burst and elemental burst damage to benefit from 4pc Emblem.

[@threebees7785]

​@@alpha4935yeah it's a very easy fix, just that mihiyo is being stingy or idk

[@jimjalabeans]

@@threebees7785 Back on her first release, a lot of people complained abt their anti-synergy. Thing is though HYV just responded by doubling down that the Bei + Raiden didn't work, along with like 100 primos for compensation 💀

[@Ocean_bIvd]

She was my first ever main and I love her to this day, I got the serpent to r5 just for her and c6 with three crowns, my record is 120k skill hehe, tho I tried to get dehyas weapon but failed (staff of sand), and she’s never disappointed with aggravate, hyperbloom, national or ayato/neuvilette/tartaglia/kokomi/raiden/wanderer/eula/wrio/Freminet/Yoimiya/Haitham/Nahida carry comps💜💜 and yes I tried them all, and I’m very happy she’s finally getting the recognition she deserves.

[@ayekonn5885]

Imo if her burst worked with raiden then she would be more popular

[@Saberdud]

im too high to understand what's being said in the video but i watched anyways love you bro

[@Faisal-hi7ln]

i genuinely can't wait for chevruse to be out so i can use her in a beidou fischl and yanfei overload team!!!

[@thenathanbyrne7333]

Dude shes a dawg, beidou is basically HIM Killed a sea god( i think haishan was a god) with one hit after blocking him off for a few days non stop. Her lore rocks and her kits is fun. 5 stars

[@tejas3272]

She was my first 4✨ and i mained her every since genshin came out

[@hlonghi]

Didn't got a Charlotte this last banner. My Beidou got to C6 though. I guess it's time to build her. 😅

[@666hasselhof]

I have started using furina yelan beidou and Jean with driver and skill spamming Jean. IT shreds

[@austinstewart284]

On3 or my favorite characters, she's always either my 1st or 2nd character I pull on my accounts.

[@AzureDrag0n1]

My favorite Beidou team is Nahida, Kuki, Beidou, Xingqiu. I bring this team out against the most dangerous content without sacrificing too much damage. It is very strong defensively. This team is also quickswap friendly so you can use your Beidou parry more freely. The restriction of being mostly AoE centered and wanting a quickswap friendly team is one of the big reasons why she is not used all that much. One team you did not mention is the hypercarry Beidou. Basically same exact team as hypercarry Raiden but it plays quite differently since you swap characters a lot and try to land parries. You also have to remember to do normal attack autos as you quickswap. Beidou's personal damage can get quite crazy on this team. Imagine doing 40,000 damage per lightning discharge and it bouncing 5 times to do 200,000 damage.

[@SeenE-kg9nj]

It's annoying that Hoyo made Spread not count as an Electro reaction. This means that Fischl A4 doesn't get triggered by on-field Dendro units which indirectly affects Beidou because you want to play those two together. This basically leaves us with just the Sucrose team at the start of the video or some kind of Hyperbloom support roles. Technically there is also Keqing+Beidou but Fischl is so good it's hard to justify dropping her
