Starter Characters Only: 4.1 Spiral Abyss

[@TurtleCamera]

Update 2: I managed to get 9 stars for 4.2 Spiral Abyss too. The video for that version will premiere on November 28th: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aF6knKp-qbOfsKM. Update 1: After rewatching the footage a few times and planning for the 4.2 Spiral Abyss cycle, I noticed that the strategy I used in the video doesn't swirl cryo 100% of the time. This is because Kaeya has ICD on his burst, so it won't always apply cryo between the time I use Lynette's skill and burst. The easiest solution to this would be to stall on Lynette for a bit after I use her burst and wait for the anemo DoT damage from her burst to swirl cryo (VV doesn't debuff when the wearer is off-field, so I need to stall on Lynette). The harder (more optimal) solution would be to time the abilities in such a way that Kaeya's application does occur between the time I use Lynette's skill and burst, but I'll have to do more testing before the 4.2 Spiral Abyss cycle.

[@elina1421]

did this really take 268 retries?? you're insane

[@VrtielA6300]

That's why I can't train myself when you said this number of attempts. "Practicing Makes Frustration"

[@oddpotato4038]

But the satisfaction when pulling off the complicated rotation of the team. Even its still doable, the amount rng on to deal with combined with a team composition that doesn't let you have a wiggle room in case you mess up sometimes take a toll on my sanity. Well it depends on person to person tho. Sometimes most people value on how efficient they can clear the abyss content. Others just want to try the wackiest strategy to see howfar they push their skill (and patience). I used to do the latter but my current time schedule doesn't let me have enough time to explore new team comps.

[@lylusbadylus1107]

This is BEYOND very impressive. You perfected every second of this abyss.

[@isuka2312]

This is pure skill gameplay. Also for the music why dont you use the Enkanomiya battle theme,it's really fitting for spiral abyss.

[@Yfoos]

I agree, I mostly hear either battle music or character trailer music when I see Abyss videos, would be nice to hear other genshin music as well

[@memezabelle]

enkanomiya battle music is so good just for it to be used in a area we will never see again

[@kangketokmagic]

AGREE

[@miiinkus]

enkanomiya battle theme is best in game

[@nationalgeografic7687]

​@@miiinkussumeru exists

[@kr_3036_]

compared to very big numbers, I personally find not particularly big but constantly appearing numbers more satisfying (I'm not sure how to word it but 2nd half was very satisfying)

[@AdamBlade17]

As a fellow Lisa enjoyer, those swaps and hyperbloom plunges at the end were amazing.

[@FweshPwinceJiff]

This is the most pro genshin player I've ever seen. The explanation made it so entertaining as well as impressive. Well done

[@pikolino7087]

Idk if anyone said this already, but those are some really good instructor pieces on barbara, gave you quite enougg hp and er and it was such a good choice for this team

[@supm8te751]

you are an actual god for this

[@ellosteve]

[@crimsonram6106]

amazing planning and dedication, max respect. I usually give it 5-10 tries and just end up with 33*. I respect your time to understand and SHARE these mechanics, much appreciated

[@angelagustin513]

I really love how the team build at the end is organized. Others show it too fast and it’s annoying having to pause at the right frame. This is perfect, thanks!

[@everhartt]

those lisa plunges for hyperbloom is just so smart. this run was just pure skill! im amazed

[@Schniffers]

I’m amazed by how your first team survived without a decent healer

[@m40th]

this is amazing, and also somehow nostalgic because these are the voicelines i hear all the time fighting enemies in early AR

[@axinevermore5798]

The well timed plunge attacks w Lisa are so satisfying....

[@VietHoang-mf4wb]

insane gameplay man, one of the best 4 stars only run Ive seen recently

[@pedrocasanova3601]

Bro Ur builds are excellent, I loved them, I can see U R a favonius enjoyer jajaja

[@gouravnigam1987]

oh about the music, i think the character demo music in genshin suits them well tho personally hutao and alhaitam character demo music was fire!!

[@Aeondrew-]

Finally got around to watching this, this is very impressive and I really appreciate being able to see the thought process behind your decisions! There are so many small things you do in these runs to improve consistency and as someone who struggles with that in my runs it's very satisfying to see! As far as battle music goes, if you want something from Genshin that fits the intensity of an Abyss run you could try the Coral Defenders battle theme or the Osial battle theme since I don't think most people hear those too often

[@Rud0lph_5]

For the background music, i highly suggest childe’s theme “letter from ajax”, you really feel the intensity and the excitement for battle with that song, beffiting of your amazing abyss runs!

[@Fun-On-Run]

This was amazing. No words to describe. Keep up good and amazing play. Looking forward for more footage. You have mastered amber.

[@WeltWeltWelt1195]

such a legend

[@Loxa_24]

Seeing this video shocked me, even using underrated characters, and making them broken.. especially seeing amber 😂.. i learned alot, thanks and keep it up! ;)

[@ciroidchavez246]

I really liked starter plays on spiral abyss runs 😘 it's so satisfying to watch than other 4 star & 5 star character play 😍 but to get me wrong though other plays are still great but for the starters one I just really liked them when someone plays them in spiral abyss 🤩

[@TurtleCamera]

I have a soft spot for these starter characters too. I used to watch other players like Valaine Bluebery DeathWhizkersz, Enviosity, and lIIllI, who were known for starter characters only runs, but they don’t seem to do those runs anymore. These players inspired me to try out starter characters only runs too.

[@alliew9216]

师父 这实在太厉害了 😭 我真佩服你的坚韧

[@TurtleCamera]

谢谢！我尝试了几种办法，才解决了12层满星。

[@dunkin_dova]

this is unreal, absolute mad lad

[@goodisgood153]

Keep doing the abyss runs with starters ! This is such a great content

[@Tareera.]

This is so cool! I really like the description in your videos.

[@pyro8632]

That's insane. Knew Amber was one of the best characters to break shields, but still this is such a clean gameplay. Oh, and for music, how about using Honkai Impact or Star Rail's OST? Since anything else is gonna have copyright, at least they're made by Hoyo already

[@TurtleCamera]

Thanks! I’ll take a look at the OST from Honkai Impact 3rd and Honkai: Star Rail in the meantime

[@starlette7820]

Yeah it's basically her only function since her damage output is pitiful compared to other dps 4 stars, and also it helps that they have her c2 which allows them to detonate her baron bunny by shooting it. Most people wont have c2 unless they're willing to spend starglitter on her, and the only ones who do that are people who simp for her hardcore.

[@pyro8632]

@@starlette7820 Well yeah, but she has some uses. Her burst is good at breaking shields and has a low energy cost, she's a good holder for Elegy, great for Xingqiu vapes. Also a lot of people buy starters in the shop, I have her C5 already, but C6 is her best const, I wouldn't say C2 is that necessary. I'm building mine for Hu Tao team.

[@starlette7820]

​@@pyro8632 I mean you literally just repeated what i said back to me? Breaking shields is basically her only use where she isnt outshined by anyone else. Xiangling and even c6 bennett are superior vape pyro 4 stars to her. And Fischl is a superior elegy holder as far as four stars go. And also you didnt really contest my point about people who simp for her getting her constellations. Most people wont waste their starglitter on Amber and will either get the blackcliff weapons, or kaeya/lisa cons since both of them at c6 are far superior to amber in both use and damage output with their c6, especially now that dendro is a thing and lisa can be utilized in hyperbloom teams. The only people who will get her constellations are people who actively use her, which are players who simp for her/enjoy her as a character/like how her kit feels. Not because it actually makes her really good, because none of her constellations are really huge game changers. I only mentioned them having her c2 because being able to detonate baron bunny on command made her skill less useless than it normally is in the abyss. Look im not trying to shit on amber here, because everyone is free to enjoy any and every character. I love Dehya but I can admit that she is very lackluster and not that great, and she NEEDS her constellations to be really good. So you dont need to get defensive over your fave. I had no intention of attacking anyone personally, especially since I love many of the characters who are considered bad myself. I was merely responding to a comment i had an idle thought about in passing when scrolling down past the video.

[@Why_Cant_I_Use_My_ProfName]

​@@starlette7820I've never bought anything from starglitter shop other than wishes and my Amber is c4.

[@mikulover493]

the plunging attack trigger for hyperbloom was so satisfying!! i never thought of that

[@hewsman1]

this was awesome to watch. thank you

[@kiaalii]

this is hella late, but hearing Rain World music in a video would make me click every time.. .

[@TurtleCamera]

I’ll add Rain World to a list of recommendations I’ve received and will try to put it into the video if it fits!

[@Hezkun]

FANTASTIC RUNS!!! I loved seeing your strategies

[@captainbeefheartt]

The abyss run of the guy who is saving for Signora :

[@Raikri-yt]

That's a lot of hardwork there. Big round applause. Good video

[@mz5403]

Enviosity is definitely envious of this 💀

[@CommentOfficerNeo]

when Collei was released some players with sheep mentality started calling her useless because their Favorite Genshin content creator said so, but look at this video Collei on a Hyperbloom with Dendro traveler.

[@riskisulthan5386]

Holy sh*t, you actually did it.... Dude that was sick...

[@christiansarvida6267]

i used all archon and still died on this abyss 😭😭

[@Screw064]

Seeing that first half team actually work is so inspiring cuz I’m bullheaded and hate meta. I try to clear the abyss w 4 dps instead of building a team w a healer. The double melt team might have more thought behind it than the teams I make but I still feel glad that ppl can pull it off fr

[@surgingtides]

This is impressive not just because you use free/starter characters but also those grouping tips because I had troubles everywhere: not being able to break the electro shield of the seahorse effectively, can't fight Coppelia without the cryo blades of Coppelius kills my team numerous times, don't know how to group the Wind Operators and keep on wonder why do they have to stand so far from each other, and that shockwaves from the automation kill me without fails because I never fight this thing before 💀

[@gabrielgamespunk]

Whoah, this is awesome. Just this. Awesome. This is to prove that we can do anything with the characters we like, no need to be using TOP META 5 STARS C6 WITH SIGNATURE WEAPONS;

[@commandopea9765]

For background music, Fate Grand Order ost would be really cool to here. In my opinion, their soundtrack is amazing. Also nice job on this Abyss. Seahorse boss gives me trouble unlike Crab Boss who's very easy for me

[@Deterxfox]

My Ayaka + Shenhe, and Hu tao // Neuvilette is crying in the corner watching this💀

[@jakequines8066]

Impressive

[@SomeoneSayOri]

hmm, maybe pick the music according to the enemies in the chambers? like coppelia's theme for 12-2, a fatui theme for 12-3, etc. amazing run btw!

[@staarfall5317]

im using hu tao hypercarry and ayato hyperbloom w nahida and ive only 36 starred abyss once, and i had like 2 seconds left on 12-3 chamber 2. youre actually insane my god

[@nightmarered4176]

​@@Tnsclaburnmelt does way more damage tho

[@stribijev]

Amber C2 with 60CR/169CD, C4 Kaeya with 62CR/169CD, Lynette is C0 but her VV set has 80CR/120CD, Xiangling C6 with 60CR/131CD, Lisa C3 with 230ER, Dendro Traveler at 67CR/163CD. R5 and R4 Favonius Warbows! - I have just one copy after 9 months of playing. R5 Favonius Codex! Two Favonius Swords at R5 - well, I never refine my Favs, so I have about four copies now, all at R1 so that my supports can use them. Well, this feels like one needs to play Genshin for at least 3 years to achieve something similar! I'd rather fall back on 5-stars who I can get easier than C4 Kaeya (who never appears on limited char banners, same as Amber).

[@cruLife-morningSTAR]

Mad respect for this! It was satisfying to watch. This might be the only vid of gameplay that i didn't skip anything, heck i even replayed some parts. It kinda inspired me to build these characters, especially that Second team. I have C6 Barbara💀 and C6 Lynette😭. Xiangling, Barbara and Lynette are the only characters that i have built and leveled up here, the rest are only lvl 20. I just need good Artifacts, i always got the worst one.

[@davidolvera1031]

You have Barbara constellations?

@@davidolvera1031 if only i could give it to others, lol but yeah got 8 copies of Barbara actually. Sadly i dont use her, maybe after Furina's release i can put her in a team with the brat archon.

Amazing job, very enjoyable to watch and great commentary with helpful hints! As for music, even though I think it may not fit genshin's style that much, you can try Devil May Cry OST. I enjoy it when playing the abyss.

[@reinhard7731]

Youre so underrated bro

[@cjcbrehaut]

This was top tier skill, nice work!! For music, I think if you use OSTs from fighting games like Tekken 7 or Street Fighter would be cool as your gameplay is so fast paced and intense!

Nice Run! For Music suggestions.. If you want Fontaine then there's this one Metal Cover by mntx chords which ia extremely unique and cool. Else you can check out another Artist called Vetrom who makes Character Remixes but adds a bit of his own flare to them, he also Extends them nicely instead of looping them.

[@zettonhz]

My end game dream, doing abyss with these 4 stars character.

[@OK-otic]

Wow, very nice! This is my first exposure to quickswap teams. I know about them in theory but have never really seen them in action, and they're all starter four stars and have Favonius weapons?! 😃 This was very eye opening. Also you have C4 Kaeya?? Does the Sophisticated Synchronization thing you mentioned a buff from one of his constellations or something, or is it someone else? Great job! P.S. As for the music, I found the Fontaine music very fitting and very relaxing! Since we're in Fontaine, I think it'll be great if you ran with that for a while longer. There will be more Fontaine battle music coming out to use, I'm sure P.S. This is my first time seeing a good Instructor set, too! Now that I know it's not just a meme build, I'm going to keep an eye out for good peices

[@TurtleCamera]

Thanks! About the Sophisticated Synergy buff, it comes from Lynette’s first ascension passive: “Within 10s after using Magic Trick: Astonishing Shift (her burst), when there are 1/2/3/4 Elemental Types in the party, all party members' ATK will be increased by 8%/12%/16%/20% respectively.” I’ve gotten a lot of suggestions for music in the comments section of this video, but I’ll see if I can add the Fontaine battle music again without it being too repetitive in my videos.

[@OK-otic]
