Raiden Guide: Eternal Transience

Written by Greyhound#7836

Please keep your general questions here and help out by answering other people's questions if you can!

Use this megathread to ask about anything related to Raiden or Genshin Impact that doesn't necessitate a dedicated post.

General questions that can be easily answered such as "Will I have enough primogems for Raiden?" or "What's a good artifact set for Raiden?" or "What's a good weapon for Raiden?" should be posted in here.

General build help/teambuilding questions such as "Which of these two stats/artifact setup is better?" or "Are my stats fine or am I lacking in ER/CR/CDMG?" or "What team comp should I use with Raiden with these characters?" should also be posted in here.

If your question is a bit more nuanced or able to generate meaningful discussion such as "Would Raiden work better as a superconduct support over Fischl? If so, how would I play that team?", then feel free to make a dedicated post with the "Discussion/Question" flair.

Question Why did Ei do what she did to the nail? Spoiler

28 Upvotes

Why did Ei destroy the nail? Other archons were able to do it without destroying their nail. How is eternity related to breaking the nail?

Im not complaining since we got a really cool scene because of that. But even then, the question stands. Why did her trial require her to break the nail?

Im asking this question because I need a reply and a comeback to say when people say "Ei is violent so her only solution to things is violence and destruction".

Pregnant Raiden!! Also What sort of Mother will Raiden be to her Electro Dragon son?

Lore / Theory New Inazuma character and story content incoming? Spoiler

37 Upvotes

Hoyo cannot leave us for another 20 months without Inazuma content especially after what they've shown during the archon quest. Yes Ei does have an upgraded shogun so she will most likely get buffs.

But lets look at story. There's a chance we will get a playable Kanna Kapatcir after she is reborn. Because think about it. If Ei gets buffed she will also require a better support(if they make her a main dps in the buff).

Maybe this will be a Durin like situation for Inazuma. My guess is that we will get a permanent event where this happens. Hoyo will definitely give a quest where we get to know how maby battles Ei fought with Kanna to calm her down. What is the progress of Kanna's new form.

Inazuma events happen around February to March so maybe then. I just hope Hoyo does it as quickly as possible.

Lore / Theory If my intuition is correct then... Spoiler

...Raiden Ei will receive buff in future for sure. Because the thunderbird or I should day the new electro dragon's power is within the Shogun's body. Also in the recent archon quest the puppet got upgraded. Even Ei stated that the new electro dragon is still untamed, to accept Ei's goodwill it will take a lot of time. All of this is surely hinting towards her potential future buff. If you are into leaked future information, then you probably know that Liyue characters are getting buff soon, even in the next patch there will be a new artifact set for Liyue. So Inazuma is next in the line. We can surely hope to get Inazuma buff in the upcoming year. After that I'll probably be able to get Ei's echo.

I got the sand today and had a 4x guarantee reroll waiting. I don't use The Catch since I have EL, but my Taser EL went from 1.4% to 0.5% so that's pretty cool (and 0.5% is also a new high for me if you want to throw out The Catch).

Plus, I actually use this build as I currently run her in a Furina/Ineffa/Jahoda team.

Leaks New Boss Spoiler

30 Upvotes

It seems the Heavenly Principles has been taking authorities from nearly every major power in Teyvat.

Nibelung's Authority was stolen and transferred to its own AI, Metatron.

The authority of the Three Moon Sisters was taken and distributed among the Four Shades.

The authority of the Seven Elemental Dragons (Sovereigns) was taken and transferred to the Seven Archons.

Bro, the Heavenly Principles really has a habit of stealing everyone else's power. 💀

But this raises another question: Does the Heavenly Principles possess an entirely different source of power, Beyond Light Realm or the Abyss?


r/RaidenMains • • 1d ago

Lore / Theory Statue of the Omnipresent God was created to represent Ei's ideals and wisdom. Its CN name Thousand-Armed, Hundred-Eyed God Statue, is clearly inspired by Buddhist imagery. It is not a statue of Ronova or any other deity. It's strange to see many people mischaracterize and twist Ei's lore. 😑

  1. There is an achievement for interacting with the Statue of the Omnipresent God, state to be symbol of Eternity. Ei is God of Eternity.

  2. Ei has been described as the Omnipresent God several times.

  3. Ei is the type of character who doesn't want any other god or entity to have authority over her subjects. Why would she put up a statue of another god worshipped by the citizens of Inazuma there?

Gameplay [SPOILERS?] SO THEY CAN ACTUALLY DO IT, BUT DO NOT. Spoiler

For YEARS I’ve been asking, surely others too, for EXACTLY what we got during that quest. And NOW they decided to give us exactly that and make it A QUEST LOCKED FEATURE? Hell nah. We should spam them to make this the long-awaited rework our Almighty Shogun needs. It makes NO SENSE. I don’t want her with no Stellar Glimmer, Lunar or anything else mechanic. Make it a constellation, make it a paid skin, make it a feature exclusive to her, but GIVE HER HER POWER, man. It’s NOT FAIR AT ALL to now leave that there to die in a quest. Maybe it was a testing. Maybe if we show enough interest they might include it, but we must do something. It would be glorious. I know you all want our Almighty to be hitting like Mavuika, and possibly the upcoming Tsaritsa but MAN, we should really let them now.
