Nebby talks Genshin Impact part one of many many parts

Neuvillette building and playstyle for everyone who either has him but has no idea what they’re doing or wants him on his rerun (whenever that happens)

SO neuvi is a main DPS character that’s unusual for two reasons:

-his charged attacks are what you get most damage out of (which is why one of his constellations levels his normal attacks up by three)

-he scales on HP

Build guide first - You can build him on 4 piece heart of depths, or 4 piece nymph’s dream for hydro sets, but 4 piece Marachusee Hunter is also really good on him. HP%, crit rate, crit damage and energy recharge are my focus stats, but don’t neglect elemental mastery either. I’ve got him on the weapon Ballad of the Boundless Blue, but I know that’s an event weapon that not everyone is gonna have. Good alternatives would be: Tome of the Eternal Flow, Lost Prayer to the Sacred Winds or Sacrificial Jade for 5 star and paid weapons, or The Widsith or Prototype Amber for free-to-play weapons

I have my Neuvillette at 1st constellation level, and I’d say that it’s alright but he’s just as good without any constellations in my opinion. If you’re someone who goes for as many constellations as possible, I’d go for 4 on him, as that’ll make more hydro balls and that means more charged attacks.

As for his playstyle, you’re gonna want to concentrate on charged attacks. When Neuvillette’s burst or skill hits an enemy little balls appear, and those let you charge up a charged attack faster. His burst allows for two charged attacks, and his skill for one. Because of his cool-downs, I usually do his skill, then a charged attack, then his burst, then two charged attacks, then skill and charged attack again. His normal attacks are okay, but I tend to avoid using them because they’re slow and clunky. Using his charged attack drains his health until it hits 50%, so keep that in mind. Collecting the balls while charging heals him too, so he’s self-sustaining if you always use the water balls to charge his attacks.

Teams for Neuvillette: crowd control is a must to maximise damage, so one of Kazuha, Venti or Sucrose is good to run with him. I also have a healer with him because of the HP cost of his charged attacks. I use Baizhu, and my fourth slot is filled by an electro or pyro user to have extra dendro reactions. I can see Neuvillette running well in freeze teams, but honestly he’d be good on any team where you need constant hydro applications or have off-field elements to react with.

I’m a really big fan of him, he’s my current main and I don’t think I’ll be swapping him any time soon.

My Genshin builds

Includes: Venti, Xinyan, Yao Yao, Yoimiya, Keqing, Yun Jin

Note: support build. My boy doesn’t do much except wait for his burst cooldown.

Note: support/heal build. I’m in the progress of changing her polearm into the black tassel since she’ll benefit from it a lot more.

Note: aggravate build for Keqing as the main dps.

Note: support.

Note: physical dps build. I’m a Xinyan main. So best believe this build is absolutely fire.

Website: Enka.Network

The art does not belong to me

Builds might be subject to change in the near future.

hi blue!! dunno if this has been asked before but do you know which artifact sets and weapons (five and four stars) are good for dps cyno? thank u <33

hello hello nonnie<333 we shall all be cyno havers, yeah?? i’m not a pro but i really like doing stuff like this so it’s so nice to be asked to do this🫶🏼🫶🏼

warning: I will not spoil you guys EXACTLY what his e skill and burst and weapons but i will say things that will imply about them (obv) so if you don’t want that, then why are you guys even curious about this….

ARTIFACTS

note: i won’t be able to say which one is the best set for him bc obv he is not released and i do not have him yet. these are by far merely my observations and what i myself prepared for him (yes, i alr have artis for him. why? you know why)

Mono Electro/flexible DPS

- 2pc ATK% (shime, glad, echoes, vermil) + 2pc Thundering

- the reason why i named this “flexible DPS” is because of his team comp. you’ll be able to be flexible in terms of who you can pair up with him and even go Mono Electro if you want.

Electro DPS

- 4pc Thundering Fury

- have anyone seen the change in the 4pc set description? it’s so good! you’ll gain 40% more damage when you trigger any other ele with Electro while aggravate has 20%. Then they also decrease your e skill CD by 1s every 0.8s.

- cyno’s e skill is pretty similar to xiao’s, only with a lower CD and only has 1 charge.

- cons: you’ll need someone with a different element to trigger the 4pc (except the skill CD decrease)

EM DPS

- 4pc Gilded Dreams

- now this MIGHT just be his very best artifact set. i’m merely saying this because of his passives (which i wont specify but…) if you know how much raiden shogun needs energy recharge to give more damage, that is how much cyno needs EM.

- cons: you’ll also need someone with a different element to trigger the 4pc, BUT you will have to consider you team comp very much because it does affect the buff that you will receive (ATK% for each fellow electro member and 50 EM for every different element)

Other Artifacts I am not sure would work as well but is worth a try:

- 2pc Gilded Dreams/Instructor + 2pc Wanderer’s/Instructor (double EM/Mono EM)

- 2pc Thundering + 2pc Gilded/Wanderer’s/Instructor (ElectroEM)

- 2pc Noblesse + 2pc Gilded/Wanderer’s/Instructor/Thundering

- 4pc Instructor

- 2pc Instructor + 2pc Gambler/Berserker (or the other way around)

- 4pc Gambler

- 4pc Emblem [not so sure about this, and i think it’s best with other characters instead]

WEAPONS

note: again, i won’t be able to be sure what really is the best for him, but i’ll try to give my own rankings here. special mentions are the ones i suggest if you do not have the ones above. also, weaps with * are craftable.

Electro (can be mono) DPS

- Cyno’s Sig Weapon, Calamity Queller, Staff of Homa, Deathmatch R5, Primordial Jade Spear, Deathmatch, Blackcliff Pole

- special mention: *Moonpiercer

- for me, Calamity Queller probably is the best for him (sad i dont have it…) aside from his own sig weapon

- now the reason why i placed homa there is because of the high crit dmg. crit dmg is pretty hard to get imo and as long as you have it, you just need to add on crit rate with his artifacts, which is easier than the other way around

Burst Reliant DPS

- R5 White Tassel, Wavebreaker’s Fin (burst), The Catch (burst), R5 Halberd, White Tassel (normals), Halberd (normals)

- special mention: Skyward Spine, Engulfing Lightning, *Crescent Pike (normals)

- p.s. i am not SO sure about The Catch or Wavebreaker’s Fin because we still do not know if his burst counts as Elemental Burst DMG or as Normals. if it’s Elemental Burst DMG, then The Catch or Wavebreaker’s Fin is good, and it’s very much like Raiden/s. but if it’s based on normals, then he’s very much like Xiao, where his burst only adds damage to his Normals (and charged and plunging). with cyno, i am not so sure.

- Crescent pike’s main stat is absolutely useless, but the passive may help him if his burst counts as Normals

- White Tassel also counts as Normals, and it has crit rate.

EM DPS

- Cyno’s Sig Weapon, *Moon Piercer, Calamity Queller, Kitain Cross Spear, The Catch,

- special mention: Dragon’s Bane

- now these would be difficult to handle. as someone who prioritizes crit, this may be too difficult for you. also, crit is very important in this game, but IF and only if you get lucky with your artifacts, then these weapons can really make him stronger

- p.s. there is a new 4* weapon coming up (which i wont specify) but it will fall under this type and will be second best to Cyno’s sig weapon. this weapon is kind of like a Calamity Queller but a 4*. Of course Calamity Queller is a 5* so it has higher stats but at least MAYBE we can R5 this new 4* weapon.

if you reached this point you’ll be a cyno haver too<333 ily for listening to my rambling may all cyno wanters be cyno havers !!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

Daily To Do's - Activities & Reset Time | Genshin Impact - GameWith

This is also a very detailed & helpful guide for New / returning players. This one talks about Daily Comissions & also about original resin & how to use it & why its so important & I highly recommend doing your dailies, especially all 4 comissions everyday ( as much as possible ) because you earn alot of Adventure Rank EXP & lots of Primogems each day up to 60 total a day + you can claim the extra reward from Kathrynne from the Adventurer's Guild afterwards too ( she gives you an extra 20 gems + hero's wit, etc. ) Also recommend using Resin, you get 160 each day total original resin, you can use it to do ley lines for experience books & Mora as well as to do Bosses & artifact, weapon & talent book domains each day too to level up & ascend your characters to help you progress faster.

TIL retracing bolide barely does shit 🥲

I only put those originally on my Zhongli bc they had great stats/rolls.... but no wonder he was able to tank shit so well, it only applied to him... ah well, he and Layla have been enjoying the crit values of my 2pc milileth/bolide ig 😭

Seems like I need to build a whole dang 4pc milileth for her now after all ay. Still never fully built my c6 Diona at that.. & I love using her with Kazuha, Hu Tao & Xingqiu (my 2nd team for like the 3x I've done abyss lol) bc she's an all rounder ,,,

Accessible Genshin Guides (needs partners)

Hi friends!

I’m not sure if this will reach anyone but I thought it wouldn’t hurt to ask. My name is Tia and as the title implies I play a game called Genshin Impact. There are many, fantastic tutorials & guides but some are not accessible to those with certain conditions.

I struggle with ADHD (among other things) and prefer visual guides over videos or long walls of text. So, I am going to be working on my own guides! I’ve found a format and look that I adore.

I am still in the process of making my first guide but I am going to include alt text for all images. However, I struggle with writing image descriptions (due to my own disabilities) but this is a must.

I am looking for anyone who has the time, the interest, and the spoons who may be willing to help me write alternative image descriptions that I can (or they if they wish) add.

If you are interested, please feel free to DM here. Thank you!

An example of a few slides so far !

flowers and unplanned proposals

xiao x gn!reader

if someone gifts an adeptus with flowers, it means you are proposing to them, and if they take it, it means they accept the proposal. unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on who you ask), you weren’t aware of such a custom. or — xiao thinks you’re married, but you just thought flowers would look nice on him.

fluff. comedy-ish. accidental malewife acquisition. featuring reader being clueless, xiao being hopeless, and lumine and hu tao being your biggest supporters

It started with a walk on the road as an acquaintance accompanied you.

There’d been a wild flower by the side, with white and lilac petals that you’d thought, rather presumptuously, would suit the dour faced adeptus beside you. So, you plucked it and impulsively handed it to him, a smile on your face and a shocked one on his.

His fingers closed around the flower’s stem, the stern lines of his face softening as he gazed at the tiny petals that glittered in the sun.

You’ve never been rid of him since.

Your friend Xiao could be described as protective at best and possessive at worst. It’s not a bad thing, of course! Caring for a friend is always a good thing in your books, but sometimes, you think he takes the word ‘caring’ to an almost extreme degree.

Take, for instance, now.

“Xiao?”

He hums from his spot on the sill of your window, not even sitting, no, he’s crouched on it, balanced on the thin ledge at the tips of his toes and keeping his eyes (which oddly glowed like a cat’s) peeled for any danger. Like this, he almost looks like a bird perched on a branch.

You let out an awkward laugh. “You know, I appreciate you doing this for me, keeping me safe and all, but I think I can spend the night on my own safely.”

His head whips to you so fast you almost feared he’d get neck cramps, an expression of surprise and… hurt? on his face.

“You… don’t want me here?”

You’ve never backtracked so fast in your life. “No! I mean, yes—but not in the way you’re thinking!”

He looks forlorn now, stepping down the windowsill and shoulders hunched in a similar manner to that of a cat pulling its ears down its head. “Is this what the Traveler meant by sleeping on the couch?”

You’re not sure what to do, but it seems like he wants to sleep on the couch? Puzzled, you smile encouragingly even though you don’t quite understand his words. “Er, if you want to sleep on the couch, you’re welcome to do so?”

His face falls.

✧

“And, I don’t know, he just became all—sad? Just, I felt so bad for basically kicking him out of my room, and now that I’m thinking more on it, I should’ve just offered to let him sleep beside me. Like a, um, a sleepover!”

There’s a distinctly bashful look on your face and, oh god, you’re drawing little circles on the table with your finger, an almost dreamy glint in your eyes.

Sweet Jesus that doesn’t exist in this world, Lumine is going to barf.

She slams her hands on the table, startling you in the process as she leans down and says with an exasperated face, “Have you considered that maybe you actually like him and he—”

“What?!” you squawk, mouth open in disbelief and a mortified look contorting your features. “That’s—don’t say such things, Lumi!”

She drops back down her chair, leveling you with a look that basically said, are you for real right now?

“It’s written all over your face—”

You quickly slap both hands on your cheeks, turning your head away. “I don’t like him! How could I ever… he’s an adeptus and I…”

“And you made an adeptus sleep on your couch,” Lumine deadpans.

She can feel the way your face burned at the reminder. You slump over the table, burying your head in your arms and bemoaning your decision. “I didn’t mean to disrespect him…”

“Oh, I’m sure disrespect was the farthest thing you did to him,” she mutters beneath her breath. Broke his heart, shattered his hopes and dreams, devastated him—Lumine can name a few more.

But then, you suddenly straighten up, determination lining your face. There’s a look in your eyes that tells Lumine she should probably stop you from doing whatever idiotic thing—however in good faith it might be—that you’re about to do.

“I should give him some flowers as an apology. He always gets so… not exactly happy but—warm, that’s it. He feels warmer whenever I give him flowers.” You smile, reminiscing on whatever moments you had with him. You stand up, looking down at the empty plates all over the table before looking at her apologetically. “I’m sorry, could you foot the bill this time?”

Lumine sighs. She’s still got money from the last commission Ningguang made her do, so she supposes she can do it. Just this once. “Fine, but you’re paying for our next outing!”

You beam, thanking her before running to the nearest flower shop or wherever it is you’re going to be getting those flowers from.

“Make sure to let him sleep on your bed next time!” Lumine yells to your retreating back, ignoring the strange, almost scandalized, looks from nearby patrons.

✧

You find him at your house, completely ignoring how strange it is that a friend has complete access to your house including a spare key and extra clothes on the closet just for him. It’s simply become the norm, is all. And he’s a good—you don’t quite know what to call him, roommate? you’ll settle for friend—friend, helping you with the chores and often accompanying you to the market when you need new groceries—but only during the early mornings, of course. You know how much he dislikes crowds.

“I’m home!”

The response comes immediate and, judging by the direction, it came from the kitchen, “Welcome home.”

The large bouquet of glaze lilies interspersed with roses and qingxin flowers is heavy on your arms as you walked to the kitchen. Xiao is there, a broom in hand which he sets aside once he sees you and what you’re carrying.

“Here!” You grin, extending the bouquet forward and into his arms.

He accepts it, a flush to his cheeks and looking distinctly flustered by the gift. “I… thank you.”

“It’s an apology.”

His eyes snap to yours, iridescent gold piercing through you. There’s something almost vulnerable in the way he’s gazing at you, hands tightening around the flowers.

You fiddle with your fingers. “Well, I wanted to say sorry for making you sleep on the couch. If you’d like, you can sleep beside me tonight.”

Something in him relaxes, tension bleeding out of his posture as he smiles, small and near unnoticeable to anyone who didn’t know him so well.

For some reason, the sight of it makes your heart leap.

Lumine’s words repeat in your mind.

Have you considered that maybe you actually like him?

No, you think with dread, absolutely not.

✧

“Yes,” Hu Tao crows in delight, “You’re absolutely in love!”

“See, that’s what I tried to say yesterday, but nooo. Oh, Lumi, Xiao is just a friend,” Lumine grouches, imitating your voice and utterly failing because while she may be strong enough to fight monsters and gods, that girl has absolutely no talent when it comes to mimicking.

Your palms cover your face that feels warm to touch. “I do not sound like that. And it’s true, we really are just friends!”

“Of course, because friends do things like living together and sleeping on the same bed and holding hands—” You open your mouth to protest, but Hu Tao doesn’t let you interrupt, “—don’t deny it! I saw you last week near Liuli Pavilion, and he was holding your hand and carrying a bag of food!”

“He’s just really helpful! He’s an adeptus,” you argue, though it sounds weak even to your own ears.

“And do all adepti live with a human, do they sleep with them—”

“You make it sound so lewd, Lumi!”

“—do they hold their hands and go grocery shopping at five in the morning with them?” Lumine pierces you with those honey gold eyes of hers. “Did you know I barely have anything to do in the Adventurer’s Guild here in Liyue besides babysitting and errands because someone—namely, an adeptus who coincidentally goes by the name Xiao—keeps killing all the monsters within the area?”

Hu Tao cackles. “He always asks about you whenever I encounter him at Wuwang Hill.”

You level her with an incredulous look. “What were you even doing there?”

“Hiding bodies, duh!” At your horrified look, she winks. “Just kidding!”

You shake off Hu Tao’s laughter and pinch your lips together. “Look, it’s—we’re just friends. That’s all there is to it.”

Lumine huffs, “Yeah, sure, because friends like you two give each other flowers everyday. How does your house still have space in it for more?”

You would’ve refuted her words, would’ve argued that no, you don’t give each other flowers everyday, just on a regular basis—but Hu Tao’s sudden silence concerned you more than what Lumine said. The funeral director turns her head to you with wide eyes.

“You gave him flowers?” she asks, an odd tone to her voice.

Your brows furrow at her uncharacteristic seriousness. “Um, yes? I do it all the time.”

She leapt forward, grabbing your shoulders and lips twitching into something you could almost call glee. “And he accepted it?”

“Why wouldn’t he?”

Hu Tao lets go of your shoulders to tilt her head back and laugh. Not the nice little giggles she does after a successful prank, no, this is more manic. The kind that wouldn’t make you think, oh how sweet, but instead makes you think, oh this girl belongs in a facility.

Even Lumine seems confused by her reaction, joining you in watching her like she’s just grown two heads. Hu Tao takes one look at both of your expressions and dissolves into another fit of laughter.

“Oh, dear. And you don’t even know what it means!” she says in between laughs.

Lumine, having had enough of being in the dark, grabs Hu Tao’s face with both hands and forces her to look at her in the eye. “What does it mean?”

Hu Tao grins, gaze darting to you. “When you give an adeptus flowers, it means you’re proposing to them.”

You and Lumine gape, understanding dawning on your heads, though there’s horror on your part at what it could mean.

But Hu Tao doesn’t stop there, “And if they take it…”

You await her next words with bated breath, Lumine seemingly on the edge of her seat as well.

“…It means they accept your proposal.”

Lumine’s screech of delight at this newfound information drowns out the metaphorical sound of your world falling apart and being built anew.

✧

You come home in a daze, eyes blankly staring ahead and unaware of your surroundings until you blink, and suddenly, you’re sitting at the dining table, a plate of steaming shrimp balls being placed in front of you.

Xiao crouches by your chair, examining your face with worried eyes. “Are you well?”

Your throat shrivels up. All the words and arguments you’d been planning to say earlier dying on your tongue. So, instead, you nod. He doesn’t outwardly look relieved, but the softness in his touch belies his care as he places a single stemmed qingxin flower on your palm.

It’s still fresh, you notice, dew gathering on the petals and the scent still present.

Xiao sits on the chair opposite yours, looking at anything and anywhere but your eyes. “I plucked it from the highest mountains of Jueyun Karst, blessed by Cloud Retainer and said to ward away unwanted dreams.”

You stare down at it, at the white petals that feel soft against the pads of your fingers, heart beating out of your chest and hands clammy and breaths labored, a pleasant twist to your gut as you realized that he’d gone out of his way to climb a mountain and have it blessed by an adeptus just to give it to you. There’s being friends, handing each other flowers they saw on the road or bought at a shop, and then, there’s this.

Your mouth feels dry, your chest feels full, and there’s something on the tip of your tongue begging to be let out.

“Xiao,” you start, finally gaining the courage to look up and meet his eyes. “What are we?”

His lips part, eyes widening the slightest amount that tells you he’s unsure what brought this question on and how to answer it.

You shake your head. “Never mind. Just tell me this—are we… engaged?”

At this, Xiao seems to relax. “No.”

You barely have the chance to feel a mix of relief and disappointment, though why you’d feel disappointment at having proof that you and Xiao really are just friends—

He smiles, a small one but no less brighter for it. “We are married, aren’t we?”

And oh.

Oh.

It’s not until now, with the confirmation of everything you dreaded (everything you’d hoped and wanted and yearned for desperately) that you realize how much you’ve longed for something more with him—how much you’ve longed for him.

“Xiao,” you say, eyes crinkling at the corners and cheeks aching with the intensity of your smile, “I love you.”

He startles, blinking up at you with wide eyes, red creeping up his cheeks, but before he can say anything you know he’s not quite prepared to say yet, you continue, still a little indignant at discovering you’d been married without a clue.

“But I demand a proper wedding ceremony!”
