Rexlent on any character: Okay, [insert character] is REALLY simple.

[@lizabetta1704]

Some of them are tho. The rest is less of their mechanics and more of general game and boss mechanics you take into account in battle.

[@Taronus68]

Vaguely reminds me of some KyostinV (THE AK guide man himself) after clearing a fairly difficult stage. "See? Super easy."

[@PikachuPolice]

​@@Taronus68bro that was not easy.. really

[@ryusawaariel6191]

[@jeffs_2839]

@@ryusawaariel6191 hahaha! Man, this brings back good memories of AK!

[@IronCarnage20]

Dude, this guide is like 10x more useful than the actual tutorial trials in the game all because of how you explain the mechanics of each character. Love it.

[@domokun3627]

i remember the Rex says that he already made all of the vid guides but he is still waiting for the Kuro's approval. maybe it is the condition of Kuro to release his guides an hour before the release date. well, i never saw Rex post a guide in PGR so late like this.

[@vashthestampede3459]

Man, you are so much better than all those clickbait youtubers jumping on the WuWa train. Simple and to the point. You earned a new subscriber

[@guardiansoulblade2673]

He's been covering Kuro's other game, Punishing Gray Raven for years, he's my go-to guy for guides besides Spider 2B.

[@tonkotsuramen8453]

Jiyan is also one of the funniest combat characters as of now that during his ult phase, every non-heavy enemy just gets swept across you for the whole duration and it's pretty hilarious

[@justjuniorjaw]

As someone who has Jianxin, I got Jiyan anyways just for this.

[@mthanh893]

Tips for Encore: - After you use her Forte skill (Hold when gauge full), you can switch to another character and it will still do damage (She will be onfield with the other characters) - After You use her Resonance (E), you can also swap to another character to do some quick damage then swap back to her and use the 2nd E (E -> Swap -> Back to Encore and E) - Her basic attack also has the 2 part like her E. After her 4th attack -> Wait for the prompt -> Basic attack again (It's guarantee if you stay far enough from the enemies and just spam basic attacks)

[@blackknight1605]

did know the hold rmb switch thing, but everything else was new to me. ty vm - encore is my first 5star and i really like her kit

[@Kronman590]

I came here for Encore and I was wondering is this mfer using swap cancels on ANYONE...???? Thats like a core part of the system...

[@mthanh893]

@@Kronman590 you meant the video doesn't mention swap cancel or?

[@olegezic4209]

@@Kronman590 the vid is not about "how to play the game" brother ._. The guy just explained how characters work

[@parafuegosarchive]

​@@olegezic4209 I mean... swap cancels and swap backs are essential to slower characters like encore and the mc

[@PandaStyle07]

There's something you didn't mention about Encore, and I think it's pretty important, you can switch out of her during both of her Heavy attacks and she will stay on field, meaning you can cancel her long animations. You obviously need more built characters to do this properly, or character that can build concerto quickly so you can spam Encore's outro and intro

[@ahmedbraham3327]

Im seeeing videos of combat where thy switch a lot , but just strting the game, it takes 4ever to charge cocerto, any tips how that becomes faster ? I dont want to stay in healer on field long

[@farhangg7070]

​@@ahmedbraham3327Just spam the echo skill and use the character kit properly (which is what is explained in this vid). Then you should not have any problem with it. My advice with the echo is don't use morph/transforming echo type skill on support or sub dps character. Better to use the summon type skill on them so then you would not waste your time on them too much. *I wont say that this is an early game problem but it is more of your understanding of this game mechanic.

[@scyred4568]

Rover actually has one more skill or attack you didn't mention. After doing heavy attack, and pressing attack again, you can do another attack that increases your middle bar for quite a bit and deals decent damage/poise damage. Enables you to have it pretty much at 100% all the time for your enhanced E.

[@Zeg-eh5ik]

it can also be done after a perfect dodge, just like yangyang

[@kuratse205]

A note about Danjin is that since she is at such low health all the time, swapping away while an enemy is attacking really helps with her survivability.

[@SpydersByte]

yea I like her playstyle but the consuming hp part sucks

[@kuratse205]

@@SpydersByte imo thats the best part about her kit. It really makes her feel different to use than other units. She sucks on mobile though, since she actually needs to manage hp. I decided to only play on PC because I'm maining her.

[@deronawuah2136]

U can also dodge lol

[@TheLMBLucas]

But why would she be at such low health all the time to begin with? lol. You are always swapping to the healer or using a healing mob, she is pretty much at full health every time she enters the fight

[@kuratse205]

@@TheLMBLucas Swapping to healer and healing takes too much time. Danjin is a very hp negative character. You can use heavy atk at half bar to heal, or you can wait until full bar to do even more dmg. She will basically never be above 50% hp in combat. I'm currently UL 24 and have her forte inherent skill that doubles HP cost and regen for the bar. It gives her another way to live by heavy atking to tank dmg, then going straight to 1hp for more bar energy.

[@tastycastle1976]

There is currently no cap on how fast characters can shoot when aiming. Someone made a good macro where Chixia shoots like 10 times/sec)

[@Zakoma_]

where do I find that? Kinda want it lol

[@seowonmin223]

terms and services explicitly state that macros are punishable, so use at your own risk.

[@banheesos]

I tried the massager trick instead of a macro and it does work😂

[@SpydersByte]

what? it sure looks like there's a cap now

[@cryzieee]

​@@SpydersBytenope, it was like this until they patched it

[@MKIS_33]

Looking forward to your and Steparu's content. No drama, just pure quality content related to the actual game, you guys always deliver. Cant wait for the game to release.

[@vanavern]

Your guide is so simple & straightforward thank you so much! As a genshin player, I’m so used to just spamming the basic & skill without much strategy which was how I played wuwa yesterday but now at least I know how to do combos & parry.

[@toohardtothink1113]

Didnt realize how many combos were gonna be in this game. This was very helpful ty!

[@Theryonas]

I went from button mashing and rolling my face on the keyboard to actually using some finesse thanks to this video. What a fantastic tutorial! Thank you so much.

[@PaulHofreiter]

I am imagining you as Yangyang now - I can’t unsee it. And I love it.

[@heaven-kd8eb]

Oh yeah, the best guide in the world from this game is a rexlent.

[@xKisei]

just pulled Danjin, she's really fun to play

[@mentlegen3887]

Her hp dynamic is actually so fun! I always love high risk hourglass cannon characters. Also as a vera from punishing grey raven lover... REDHEAD SUPREMACY. ILL GET EM ALL ONE BY ONE

[@really0213]

not in mobile 💀

[@mentlegen3887]

Hahah I think I meant glass cannon, but hourglass characters is good too XD

[@SuperHexer123]

Appreciate the guide Rex as always. Haven't gotten Jiyan or Calcharo yet, but I did nab Mortefi and love playing him. However I wasn't sure if spamming his skill was playing him right lol.

[@ahmedbraham3327]

I heard somewhere hes an off field, he ults then switches and will damage alongside your on field character, i just got him also

[@aschelnotsu6420]

You sort of want to spam his reso skill since the skill resets CD upon reaching max bar while also giving you bar, so you can reso into max reso

[@gilgamesh7679]

This video was very clear and concise. Please make such video for every character even in the future

Video for team comps would be great. What characters synergies well together.

[@Jake-ur4hz]

Dang, I got really lucky and got 4 out of the 5 standard 5 stars but my favorites are Sanhua and Danjin but I'll definitely be trying Jianxin and Encore. The only guides I keep seeing are the "TOP MISTAKES YOU MAKE" clickbaits which are the same in every gacha game. So, thank you so much for the helpful tips!

[@deliro8758]

Confused about Lingyang, his skill does not interrupt his Basic Attack string, so wouldn't something like BBBEBEBEBE until the gauge is filled optimal?

[@ainunkenan]

I got Jianxin from novice banner, at first I thought she was useless, but after watching this, damn!! I realized I was so wrong, this video helps me a lot, thanks!

[@levominhtam7300]

So how is your experience with Jianxin ? I just rolled her. She is still doing good?

[@Forsworn1222]

Yep, concise and helpful guide. Thx a bunch!

[@imdani4997]

Thanks! This actually helped a lot!

[@kienmaple]

I would also add for Rover that if you heavy attack and time basic attack right after, he will doo a hand pull animation and recover 1 gauge immediately. Very useful for recovering his gauge and hasten concerto.

[@Nika_the_neko]

Thank you so much! Helpful vid

[@thatgirl134]

Thank you so much! This fall really helpful and easy to understand. The descriptions ingame confused me, especially the Forte ones. So many on-field dps, that's something to get used to, I guess future off-field sub dps will be an amazing addition to some.

[@ichiroutakashima4503]

The only content creator I approve creating guides. I mean, you are also Kuro Games Approved, it's simple as that. That said, I've already read some of the guides and tier list in courtesy of Prydwen since they mentioned that you were also involved on making it. I have to ask, was one of the other reasons why Calcharo is ranked lower than of Jiyan was simply because of Calcharo's higher skill play requirement? Correct me if I'm wrong about it though. I would be interested to hear more of your info about it and how the ranks were actually formed. Lastly, if I were to compare this to PGR, Calcharo is basically Alpha. Just because you have her, doesn't mean you can easily use her.

[@daniwhy1]

Bro Calcharo will be worse than any promotional character (DPS) (including Jiyan), obviously this is because he is a permanent banner character and has also recently received several nerfs.

[@Rexlent]

That list is for Tower of Adversity, which is mainly dealing with mobs and Jiyan has superior crowd control. Calcharo is more single target oriented but still good, and even better with Yinlin. It's just that Jiyan excels more in this regard.

[@CoFF3e_Man]

​@@daniwhy1In Kuro Games? No. If you're minmaxing? Maybe But if not? They could get the job done

[@ichiroutakashima4503]

​@@Rexlent As expected of the goat! Thank you so much for clarifying the info about that list!

[@exu7325]

​@@CoFF3e_Man It's a tierlist, what do you mean "minmaxing"? Some characters are better than others, deal with it. You can't put everyone into a single tier, completely delusional.

[@Dragongaming-ws7bm]

Verina dps goes hard bc her forte and ult give you additional dmg and you get bonuses dmg for the whole team if you further invest into her

[@jinsaitoda]

very simple and straightforward guide, thank you for valuing my time, you have earned a sub Sir. p.s. I also forgive you for the cosplay.

[@patrick6210]

Nice, I needed a little guide on how to calcharro

[@chan-fm1qo]

Yes my favorite Danjin. Waiting for Camellya to pair with her as I heard from leak that she will be a havoc user.

[@Kizen.]

One problem I noticed with calcharo's resonance liberation/signature move is that it is VERY ping dependant and does not receive hitlag duration bonus (it seriously needs it) Calcharo is capable of landing 3 heavy attack finishers in perfect scenarios, this is not possible with ping over 100, as the ult duration just simply does not last long enough and results in always missing out on the 3rd heavy attack as you only end up with 3 or 4 stacks. I really hope they fix this by simply adding hit-lag duration increases to his ultimate. As it stands he ends up missing a large amount of damage.

[@jammed_yam]

I agree, on 300 ping the ult feels like it just does not work

[@mizuhashitsunoka]

Time to sub back to Rexlent. I followed you every vid for FGO and was hoping you would someday cover a game that i was also playing once again. So glad you made this video coz i really just wanted to learn how to use a character over their builds and all that bs. I can figure that out later, but i really want to have a grasp on the basics of basics of every chara. Hope you do it for future releases as well!

[@atriafire]

thanks, im saving this

[@setovessalius]

THANK YOUUUU

Need team build guides both high cost and low cost teams. Who needs more compared to others in a team. How to actually play the team and what is and is not being used properly. I'd like to request a team build guide featuring Rover first. How to get the most out of him in a team and how to take advantage of the time stop he can do.

[@mikeyc.6022]

The combat is miles better than Genshin 😳

[@EE7A]

its true. the elemental reaction mechanics are novel and pretty innovative in their own right, but this game is way more actively engaging during combat on most of the higher tier enemies. its a welcome changeup. it kinda gives me "genshin and smash bros just had a kid" kinda vibes. im glad i like the combat so much, because outside of that, this game is basically just a genshin clone with less polish and a (relatively speaking) forgettable story, but ill probably be playing this for a while regardless, unless the devs totally blow it down the line like fgo.

[@SaveTheHiro]

Wow, you figured out that a game that put heavy focus on combat has better combat than one that didn't. You're like a modern-day Einstein

[@nguyenmiennam7778]

I love this guild so much, so helpful. But how is your Jianxin's shield so thick, tho? Mine at level 40 only covers 1/3 of that bar. Does it scale with how many green elements there are in the team?

[@skilletossky1536]

VVVVVV great! thank you!

[@Mochazuki]

When you hit someone with Verina's slide, she actually goes into the air, so when you have all 4 of her charges, you can start with her heavy and do the air combo to clear all 4.

[@lanlinked]

This was a way better explanation that the one in-game

[@GrimMeowning]

You forgot to mention that Encore's Heavy attack using Forte and her skill - all will still be played and do damage even if you swap to other character, so no need to wait animations of them, you can swap, do your thing and swap back.

[@ChaseddiHondo]

I saw Danjin's moveset and I'm so building her. I'll be back when I get other characters. Thanks Rex the true Yangyang cosplayer

[@DuyNguyen-wf8um]

Watching him playing LingYang and Jianxin made me wanna main those 2 man, it look so much fun to me

[@kanraizaya4722]

With TaoQi you can basic 4 to convert all the floating shields into gauge instead of waiting to be hit. After that is when you’d probably want to heavy attack/counter stance.

[@udohdanny2944]

Hey, Rex. Awesome video, really insightful. Question: Who would you recommend for the selector banner? From a F2P perspective

[@harissiddiqui4418]

Verina probably, she's the 'must get' character right now and will remain so for some time cuz supports are generally future proof
