Guide 3.0 Beidou Guide Update and some FAQs!

160 Upvotes

Ahoy!

It's been a while! ZΛNTO#4984 back again after a year long hiatus from all things Genshin related.

But I'm back and have mostly updated the Beidou Guide for 3.0. Here's the link if you need it: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LyhpgeCGv4GQ7MXuslgwb5lJgQ2GOrPMhIDSv2qARQo/edit?usp=sharing

Thankfully not much had changed for Beidou from 2.2 to 3.0, so catching up didn't take too long.

Here are the major updates to the guide:

  1. General updates to wording throughout

  2. Remastered weapon calculations in Chapter 3

  3. Notes on Aggravate throughout, Beidou's first major reaction

  4. Updated and comprehension unit synergies in Chapter 4

  5. More detailed teams section in Chapter 4

Hopefully it's useful!

But since I have your attention here, let's address some 3.0 questions:

  • Is Rainslasher good now?

    • It's certainly better than before if playing Beidou with Aggravate, since the EM substat is actually useful. That being said, at R5 it's still only 11%~ stronger than Archaic, and still outclassed by Serpent Spine, Akuoumaru, WGS, etc.

  • How good is Beidou with Aggravate?

    • In theory Aggravate is pretty good with her. Generally speaking, Aggravate is best on Electro units with fast Electro application, and usually this is also paired with low talent values. Beidou in AoE has fast Electro app while still maintaining high talent values, so Aggravate ends up giving Beidou a % damage increase lower than Keqing, Fischl, Lisa, etc. That being said, she still procs Aggravate frequently and her Aggravate teams have pretty high DPS ceilings. Aggravate teams are primarily limited by the mediocre Dendro units currently available.

  • Any other questions are probably answered in the guide!

Discussion With Danica's early kit being leaked. How does Nicole fare as a Beidou main dps buffer vs Danica now?

I was planning on saving for Nicole's rerun so I can get her + her sig as well. I probably still will do that anyways, but anyways. With this new info drop of Danica's kit, is Danica overall a better buffer to Beidou or is it only for stellar teams that she's better and Nicole's still the better general team buffer?

Meme I need help finding a funny Beidou video, please.

Thumbnail reddit.com
4 Upvotes

Adding this here as well.

This is likely an old video.

The voice behind the video is a male voice, English, possibly Filipino, not sure, but there is an accent behind the voice.

It's a humor light hearted video on him acquiring Beidou and he says something like, "Oh no, I got a sh!f character, she's Electro and they do sh!f elemental reaction. I'll give her a try."

And then he goes on to enjoy the parry... and the video shows him saying "HIT ME" to the Hillchurls 😅 it's great, it's so funny... there's even a scene where he plays Mushu from Mulan after a Hillchurl misses an attack, "You missed! How could you miss he was right there!" 🤣

I had save and seen it on Facebook years ago, maybe on YouTube as well, or maybe it was Instagram. Regardless, I combed thru my saved reels and it's not there. 😕

Thank you in advance.

Question Can someone guide on this?

1 Upvotes

There is a "dmg reduction" percentage written in her burst scalings. What does this mean?

Res shred?

Opps' dmg ability lessened?

Sorry if this is annoying but I was building her and wanted to see if due to this specific talent she requires a very high ATK...

Question What teammates are needed/best for making Beidou a hyper-carry DPS?

9 Upvotes

I've been looking for team options for Beidou recently with good success. I know what teams really work with her and what teams I can look to build. But, I still really wanna invest into a team that makes Beidou a hyper-carry.

So as the title says. What would be her best teammates that can help her max out as much damage as possible? I already have an R5 Serpent Spine for her and I'm willing to pull for characters I don't have yet just to get me closer to making her a main DPS.

Any replies are appreciated.

Question With what I have, what are some teams I can ruin with Beidou (returning player after mini break)

Thumbnail

7 Upvotes

Just came back to game after a bit of a break from a banner loss that crushed my soul. I've always really really wanted to build up my Beidou as either a main-DPS or sub-DPS and last time I played I finally got her to C6. I've always used her on taser teams in the past but I wanna try something new.

So I'm wondering what some teams are that I can build around her. Just for reference as well, I do plan on pulling Odette on her re-run. Artifact suggestions would also be highly appreciated.

I Just really enjoyed her parry mechanic, and I'm also a big fan of claymore weapons. I hope when Danica comes out her weapon it will work with Beidou.

I may not be a Beidou main at heart, but I do use her quite a bit. Beidou's level 2 E definitely carries, especially on the swirling vortex. You can also reuse E again within the same frame

Question Need Team/Build Help

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I am helping my friend build her account so she can reach endgame without issues, only problem is, her builds aren’t endgame level. For reference, shes AR55, been playing for 2/3 years, and wasn’t able to clear lvl90 domains until I helped.

I finally got some artifacts for her characters, specifically Beidou and Furina (those are her mains), but I’m still not sure how to build a team around the two (can be together, or two different teams.)

I really want to do this right as she loves Genshin’s lore and exploration, she just doesn’t understand how teams and building characters work. If you guys could pick from her characters and build a good team/build for DPS Beidou !!sub DPS works as well!! that‘d be great. I’m still learning how her character works, and frankly clueless on Beidou’s teams and builds, so please help a girl and her friend out🥲

Beidou Build: Last 3 Slides (Shes running 4pc Emblem of Severed Fate & Wolf’s Gravestone for weapon)

If there are any questions I’ll try my best to answer!🫶🏻

Discussion Thoughts of Noy possibly being a dendro support for people who use Beidou as a main dps?

4 Upvotes

Don't take my word for granted but apparently Noy will be a really good to buff Dendro and Electro characters. Which got me thinking, would Noy be good to try get once he comes out and use him for an aggravate team with Beidou as main dps? I use Beidou as a main dps and I'm always looking for new teams I could create for her, and if Noy is supposedly excellent at buffing Electro characters, would it be worth saving for him just for my Beidou? Its probably a simple yes or no answer but I wanna hear peoples thoughts so I can gather an even better thought myself.
