[@cartoonvideos5]

Why? Game is easy baby mode, you don’t need strong characters.

[@FireClare]

@@cartoonvideos5 But its more like an ocd at this point to build and get strong characters. Obviously we don't need strong characters to play the game and beat abyss but there is something about games like this where you just want to build your character to the max like an rpg.

[@unicornforever606]

While her playstyle is niche being with Barbara, Dendro MC, and Collei as her teammates makes her team building relatively cheaper since all these characters are free. It's really interesting, I might get her on her re run though.

[@noahi.1381]

Same here, but I have Kokomi ready for her instead of Barbara XD

[@pidgeongguk8818]

I think it'll be interesting getting her during her rerun too. Baizhu and Yaoyao will probably have been released before then, and it'll be interesting to see how the arrival of dendro healers will impact her team.

[@Knightfall28]

You are the only guide maker I’ve watched who has explained her skill in a way I can understand 😭 Thank you

[@lordhiten]

I feel like the ones I like most aesthetically & personality wise are also the most niche characters. I keep finding myself torn between great characters or more universal kits.

[@FireClare]

@@hyunjaycho9004 If they just told the story better and gave traveler voice lines for in-game quest I wouldn't be this annoying at Genshin and Hoyoverse.

[@zaleaz]

Honestly, I kind of relate with you. When I was midway through genshin and decided to tryout spiral abyss and found out it was difficult. I also built the wrong characters for it. After awhile, I realised that I needed to learn about character builds and good team comps, all that stuff. Even until now, I still struggle with floor 12. But at least nowadays, I pull and build whatever character that I like and test with unique team comps but also keeping in mind of preparing a decent one for spiral abyss and exploration. Being able to play around with different teams is one of the main things that made me stay with genshin for 2 years. Sorry for the long paragraph hehe.

[@jonson856]

If you already have a good stock (many different units) of characters then just pull who ever you like. Thats how Ive been rolling ever since I was able to build a couple teams for Spiral Abyss floor 12.

[@tjsan5856]

You have the best Genshin character guides. 😍💙 It’s not just this video. The way you give 4 Star Characters shine is the best. Keep shining!

[@hr6439]

She has comp restrictation, but it is the cheapest one in the game. All three members are free. And building her doesn't take that much of resourses. Will try to get her when she reruns. Now I am waiting for Hu Tao or Childe.

[@teddythepenguin7199]

I don’t plan on getting her (not this banner, anyway) but thanks for the amazing guide as usual 🥰 I find them not just useful, but oddly relaxing to listen too! Good luck to everyone pulling for her ❤

I got really lucky with the banners and got her up to C2R1! I'm quite happy with her overall.

great guide Sevy! I was already thinking about pulling her (waifu over meta!) and it's encouraging seeing your guide showing that while she's not meta, she's still pretty good, and fun to play/easy to build.

[@ArmyofThalia]

I have been looking forward to this video for a long while. I do feel it is very notable that if you run 1/3 for team comp, 3 hydro has a large point of acknowledging with the new hydro resonance.

[@BlazeLibra]

Do note that definitely don't do a revised guide for her until 3.6 goes live! Kaveh and Baizhu could change things, and we're due for new artifacts that patch too It is crazy how much building her is evolving though

[@xtranathor8143]

That dodge transition between abyss floors was awesome!

[@KromeLazarus]

Glad she is very cheap to build like Kokomi. Hope to get her another time but glad to see she is very low investment on Artifacts. But even the Team she needs are here Free to get down the line. Though very funny to see 75k HP and her cons are like Optional like Kokomi was. Her Bountiful Core is restrictive, but it doesn't have special downside as she can work for other Elements for Raw Damage.

[@lisausalad3631]

Watching this not because im pulling but because a friend is and he doesn’t watch that many guide videos (I’ll try to convince him tough) Great guide btw :D, you never miss

Yes yes i think theres still potential in her, right now i use her with kokomi trav, and collei and its pretty solid. I cant wait for alhaitam if he is a solid dendro dps, pair with nilou's bloom kit and go with the dendro-hydro team and viola!

[@eendsofthearth]

Thank you for this guide!! While its outdated as far as team recommendations now, it really helped me understand her kit. I didnt realize Bloom also scales on character level! I'm excited to use her with Baizhu 🎉

[@JayGotGameBruhXL]

Thx so much for this guide. I'm guaranteed to get in 40 pulls so I'm excited

[@tadano-kunn]

If I'll nitpick one aspect then that's her 3 hit NA. It's limited to 3 autos and when her skill is active, she can't do charged attacks. You'll have to keep sprinting to maximize the duration of the hydro-infusion. Which greatly consume stamina. Aside from that, thou niche, I'm definitely enjoying her.

[@GuyWithAnAmazingHat]

Use jump cancel instead of dash if you want to save stamina

[@TheZoobZoobs]

Thank you, I read her mechanics and after getting her to 70 I wasn't sure why I wasn't able to do any proper damage despite having a full team that met her requirements but with your guide I was able to finally learn how to play her properly. Unlike most others she actually needs some getting used to due to her unique mechanics.

[@dynamight9004]

[@aidescal8]

Aside from Kokomi and Barbara as steady hydro healers, we still have the Proto-Amber Mona. With high ER and a 5-star heal circlet, Mona's burst can: 1)pin the enemies, 2)buff the bloom dmg with her Omen, and 3) apply first-aid heal that scales to the active character's max HP. All of these happening with consistency if you can manage to pull-off her burst frequently. Mona can use either a heal+ER set bonuses or the 4pc. Deepwood for the dendro res shred. Mona's Phantoms not only taunt the enemies but it ticks hydro dmg rather fast, so stacking some EM would be nice too if the hits do make Dendro Cores. Now if only Bloom damage is included in Mona's C1 info.....

I got her on 3.6. And that's after Nahida. Why? All i wanted was Shinobu constellations but kept getting fed trash Dori (already C6 prior and then C12 and beyond) and also C6 Layla plus a truck load of random characters/weapons. It's only on the final days did I finally get two Shinobu copies, and Nilou just happen to come along for the ride. Don't worry I didn't spend direct money on Nilou banner, just 100% the whole of 3.6 and events to squeeze every single primogem along with WM, BP, star glitter, and the nicely-timed SA reset. Her play style may be niche but it's certainly refreshing, in a suicide bomber way.
