The FIRST CRYO Catalyst is Here! [Genshin Impact Spells Only]

Wriothesley is here in Genshin Impact version 4.1! The FIRST EVER Cryo Catalyst user in all of Genshin. So being that this is a Catalyst-Only account, we obviously need to pull for him.
This is inspired by my own Swords Only playthrough we currently have running on the channel. That account is at a point where we just need to farm domains to further build characters, so with plenty of catalyst-wielding characters on the horizon, it's time to begin this journey as well.

Hoyo finally answered your prayers. You mentioned the need of a Cryo catalyst in almost every spells only.

[@whysosooft]

his C1 explained: you don't need to have him within the 50%-60% hp range, because he gets his special charged attack when you use 5 NA after using his skill (which is the full combo). the charged attack also deals more dmg, and his skill lasts longer

@JavaTheCup remember that the marechu-something hunter make you worry only about crit damage since the 4-p set is giving you a 36% crit rate by just atacking

[@lorenzopasini8673]

Yeah, that crit damage circlet was kinda good

[@suffering9481]

[@Dodo_badawy]

Marachuasee Hunter, Don't worry, It is pretty hard

[@carlosartola2860]

His C1 makes it so when you either fall to 60% HP or land his 5th attack from his 5 hit combo, You'll get a rebuke fist and it'll heal you. (A boosted charged attack) If that wasn't enough, his rebuke fist does 200% instead of 50% extra damage. And it makes his skill last longer when you land a rebuke fist up to 4 extra seconds. (He basically doesn't need a healer anymore)

[@100RoomsExperiment25]

it makes me so sad that the first con gives +200% dmg when the base is 50% it feels so p2w if you really wanna do massive numbers with him i think (i do not understand any kit mechanics, i throw random stuff until it does dmg)

[@crematedfelony]

​@@100RoomsExperiment25 as far as I understand it's more QOL than dmg, but c1 is also at least somewhat f2p friendly still, gotta take what you can get;; or at least minor spenders with welkin only can afford c1s fairly easily

We will miss you: "If only there were a cryo catalyst user..."

[@bonyeni]

The ice bridging is pretty awesome ngl, having him be a close-range cryo catalyst makes it perfect

[@roseignis3255]

Btw, Golden Troupe is good for Yae Miko, and Wrio and Neuv don't need that much crit rate, just crit dmg

[@elan5614]

the new catalyst from the event is actually REALLY good on wriothesley so its 100% worth leveling up for him over the craftable weapon since u dont have to spend billets to get it to r5, but lost prayers is also really good if u dont plan to give it back to ningguang

[@briannguyen6248]

C0 is more like the traditional boxer where sometimes you’re able to get that nice uppercut. C1 makes it easier to get and do so it’s a nice QOL improvement but c0 is still great

[@manel7786]

Congrats on getting Wrio! I decided to skip him bc I’m saving for Furina, but he has like S tier design. Also that was a very creative way of beating the enemies without using the trial characters, I would have just given up lol

[@lainverse]

8:30 His problem is you can't stay above 50% with him alone since at C0 he loose too much health and his passive doesn't restore enough, so after rotation or two you stay constantly below 50%. However, when you bring a good healer like Kokomi you end up with an opposite problem when you can't trigger his passive at all and loose damage bonus from it. It looks like at C0 he's designed to be played with a healer which do a single burst of heal, so you can actually lower his HP below 60% during his time on the field. This is not important with his C1 since he can fully heal with it and deal more damage on top of that, but at C0 that's something you have to take into consideration. So, in this team you may want to replace Kokomi with someone else and only use Barbara's burst for healing. Mona, perhaps? I think he'll appreciate damage bonus from her bubble and on frozen enemies it stays for a lot longer.

[@kleber8793]

*60%

[@xHeyItsCami]

….Time for me to build Barbara or Mona.

[@RoseBraam]

Oh lord no, you don't want to heal him! You need him at 50% health and then use his charged attack to heal him back up if he gets too low on hp! That way he does way more damage. Keeping him at full health only nerves him

[@nk5499]

if you wanna know what C1 does, the dumbed down version is just It makes his combo NA5 (Normal attacks 5) CA (charged attack also it makes his E have 100% uptime and buffs more damage on his E

6:45 Yeah that happened to me too first I thought you can just go through but then I realized I was trapped. I think the most sad thing about it is that you can’t go to the top until you finished the puzzle quest else I would have welcomed this bug with open arms.

[@monkeyomg8061]

The event was personally fire for me, the elegant poetry, the competition, the new bonds, and the reunification of lovers, but yea the waiting is annoying, but there's only one poetry event in the story a day and the trial characters must have been pain for u😅

I also made a Catalyst Only account a while ago cuz I thought it's fun and only had Wanderer + a few basic 4-stars. I was at 46 pity with 70 saved wishes (all primos gotten from f2p events and etc), I made 3 ten pulls - nothing, I did another 10 pull and somehow managed to win my 50/50 for Wrio, managing to snatch a second one just 2 wishes later in the same pull:') I don't know who made me do it but I also did 2 wishes on the weapon banner and also got his weapon 🥲 The Neuvillette "incident" that happened on my main all over again lmao

The free catalyst would be good on DPS Mona, since on one of her passive it increases her hydro bonus based on her energy recharge, the set I want to try on dps Mona is, Nymph’s Dream set, atk sands, hydro bonus goblet(or EM bc of her passive) and crit rate/crit dmg circlet maybe it would work im not sure but I want to try it once I get the chance to

About his c1. Its very very very nice to have it but if you don't you just dont use charged attacks and run him with a healer. Its not as needed as it seems.

This is so refreshing Istg I haven’t seen a JTC video in like 5-7 months

[@Brenilla]

So for Wriothesly C1, it basically makes it so he is full sustain in HP + charged attack better. Put it simply when he is below 60% HP he gets this red aura that makes it so his next charge attack will heal him. Add in the Skill and it dose great damage. With the Constillation it makes it so this red aura has a lot smaller cooldown for when it can happen if your using his skill. I think that’s the gist. Basically instead of doing NA5>NA5>Charged with likely needed healer, you can just keep doing NA5>Charged without potentially using healer.

[@FknRaccoon]

Two things about Wriothesley. 1. Flowing purity is not that good on him, the current event catalyst is probably his BiS F2P weapon especially at R5. 2. A common misconception is that he needs to be between 50%-60% HP. This is not true. He gets his enhanced charged attack when he drops below 60% and he doesnt lose it if he is healed back up.

[@jamaleqab9153]

[@ShamoogaChinapien]

Congratulations Java❤❤❤❤

[@Aeron428]

His c1 changes his first passive talent. Instead of needing to meet the requirement of being under 60% hp for his enhanced charged attack, you can either be under 60% hp or get it after his 5th consecutive normal attack. Meaning you don’t have to worry about staying between 50-60% hp and instead be between 50-100% hp. Also, you can only get his enhanced changed attack once every 5 seconds but his c1 changes it to 2.5 seconds. Lastly, the enhanced charged attack deals and extra 50% dmg but c1 changes it to 200%. Overall, a very cracked constellation that’s changes his gameplay but it sucks that’s it’s locked behind one.
