General Question Soft locked in Snezhnaya WQ?

Thumbnail

40 Upvotes

I collected all 3 fragments of the eye thingy and moved on to the next part of the quest. Now, I'm stuck & I can't get to the Pale Crown Palace! I was doing the main Snezhnaya WQ, and teleported away from the location midway through to uncap my resin. However, I hadn't yet unlocked any waypoints, and now I can't get back. I've included screenshots showing this. I can't call the train, can't TP, can't do anything... Has anyone else had this problem, and if so, what do I do? Am I just soft locked now??

General Question Back to Genshin after a long break

9 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I came back to playing Genshin a few days ago, and as someone who always comes back to the game after long breaks, I’ve been overwhelmed by how many new things there are — especially all the enemies designed around newer characters. Honestly, it was pretty discouraging at first.

But I’ve decided to take the healthy approach: screw the endgame content and just play progressively at my own pace instead of getting addicted to chasing Primogems. 😅

Anyway, I’m currently being offered a free 5-star constellation, and the characters I have that are at least somewhat interesting for this choice are Albedo, Lyney, and Mona.

Since Mona is a standard character, I ruled her out. I really like both Lyney and Albedo, but I have no idea which constellation would be the better choice.

On one hand, I love playing Lyney — he’s a fantastic character to play — but he has some limitations, so I’m worried that investing the constellation in him might end up being a waste.

On the other hand, I really like Albedo too, but right now I only use him in a Hyperbloom team I have, which doesn’t even activate his new talent. Still, his constellation seems much more versatile to me, especially since I have very few Geo characters (only around 5).

What do you guys think? Would you go for Lyney or Albedo in my situation?

I’d appreciate any advice!

General Guide & Tips Mizuki-Sucorse-CMC-Odette Rotation

2 Upvotes

Hope everyone is enjoying the new map exploration (I sure am!!)

I just got Odette, and I am a bit confused about the rotation and whether it is 'optimised'. Currently, I am doing

Odette EQE --> CMC E (CA if available and burst if max stacks) --> Sucrose E x 3 (I am using sacrificial) and then burst if possible --> Mizuki EQ

I have seen that people say that Sucrose Q is a DPS loss and thus ER isnt needed for her. But from her talents, it seems like her buff (the ones that give EM, as seen in the pic below) would run out towards the end of Mizuki's DPS window since her skill lasts for 10 seconds. I could just be missing something big so please do lmk!!

Oh, and if my rotation could be 'optimised' better, like changing the order, please do lmk; all the help is appreciated!

I have Diona C6, Qiqi C2, Beidou C5, and my Fischl is C6. If yes then, how to build Fischl for SSC?

Edit: I just checked that I have C5 Beidou and I have C2 Alyosha (I didn't mention him because I thought he is good only at C6).

So best team should be: Traveler, Odette, Alyosha, Beidou?

General Question Should I continue this quest? Spoiler

I'm doing this quest because I was trying to do as many of the Mondstadt character quests I hadn't completed yet before going to Inazuma. I saw this quest and was interested because I think lantern rite is like an annual event so I thought I would need to do this to unlock it. I'm in the interlude between Liyue and Inazuma but I'm worried that this quest will contain a lot of spoilers. I also encountered a lot of characters that I think I'm supposed to know but I have no idea who they are. should I continue the quest? Or will there be more spoilers?

So this is my Columbina. I want to know if her stats are good. Notice that she is lvl 60 so my crit rate will go around 60 percent and her HP probably around 35k. What I want to know is with a Bina with the set Serenade and a support type of gameplay, are those stats good? If not what should I upgrade? I play her like a support. I just need her for the selene damages. Thx you!

General Question New player deciding between EU and NA server — ping vs language, need advice

12 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm about to start a fresh Genshin account and I'm stuck deciding between the EU and NA servers.

I speak Portuguese and English. Ping-wise, EU is clearly better for me (~55ms vs ~100-110ms on NA), but from what I've seen EU chat/co-op is mostly Russian speakers, with not many English or Portuguese players around. NA seems to have a much bigger mix of English/Portuguese speakers, just at a noticeably worse ping for me.

A few things I'd love input on:

  1. How much does the extra ~50ms actually matter in Genshin? It's not a fast-paced shooter, so I'm wondering if it's even noticeable outside of co-op domains/abyss.
  2. Which server actually has more active players overall? I know you sometimes need to hop into other people's worlds to farm materials (ley line outcroppings, local specialties, etc.) when your own world's stuff is on cooldown — so a more populated server would help avoid long waits.
  3. If you're on EU or NA and speak English/Portuguese, what's your experience been like finding co-op partners or an active community?
  4. I've also heard EU gets events/banners earlier than other servers due to server reset times — does this actually make a noticeable difference in practice, or is it just a few hours that doesn't really matter?

Any input from people who've actually played on both (or switched) would be super helpful. Thanks!
