A good chunk of my music is done by @tnbee / @tnbee they make awesome covers of hoyoverse music! check them out!
A lot of information in general I learn from theorycrafters and creators such as Zajef77 / @zajef77 , The Genshin Scientist / @thegenshinscientist , Jamie / @jamiekb9v , Jstern25 / @jstern25 , Flip / @fliponyt KQM keqingmains.com/ . If I ever directly lift any specific info from any of them specificially I will additionally credit with a shoutout in the video or first part of description. I always do my own extensive testing of course, but often these guys create a baseline that every creator starts at, and most of us wouldn't be able to do what we do to the level we do it without these guys creating a foundation. If you think anyone else should be credited here, let me know and I'd love to add them.
Where did you get your figures?
- Keqing is the official one, you can get it from many sites. expensive.
All the others are from ali express. They were around $40-$80 Canadian dollars including shipping, pretty reasonable.
- Nilou is amazing, highly recommended
Shenhe Nahida Zhongli childe are quite good
ayaka is solid
yoimiya is minimally acceptable
raiden is BAD do not get that one. Hu Tao is also very bad. They're not displayed becasue of how bad they are.

Thank you.
Dude's like taking a walk in the park with this endgame mode when he has just built and tested every single character to help us decide who we wanna wish for and build 😂😂😂
XD
Nah it really is easier than abyss. If you are one of those vertical investment ignore every other character type of player you will struggle here but if you are like one of us who basically focuses more on building other units than making a few units stronger then this is easy
@@goodisgood153I vertically invest and this mode was easy lol. I could literally bring my level 20 amber and level 20 gaming and my C2R1 Arle would still decimate the last boss.
@@vanilla9886 bruh the minimum requirement for the hard difficulty is having lvl 70 characters, if that was the case I too would be able to do it but it is not a DPS check entirely you need to build 16:-18 to lvl 70 just so to participate in it
@@m3hrn_ damn didnt know that, well thats a bummer lol. I wouldve had Arle solo, but they said that it needs a 4 member party, and I already had a ton of pyro, electro, anemo. I maybe will have a problem if they had dendro or geo as required elements lol.
it is easy for you because you built and tested every character ;)
😂😂🤣
you can build your characters too :)
@@peterkenez8190no
@@peterkenez8190 yep, just a little bit of time for each character (about 1-2 weeks for each character) So, just in a few months you might be able to start the hardest difficulty
@@vladys001that is... If you have them. If genshin wasn't friendly towards new players, now it's worse. This mechanic is clearly a push towards spending on the game.
The people who C6 a single character by waiting 2 years are cooked
anti simp
Lol😅
its me
😂😂fr
Imao 😂😂😂😂😂 serves them right hahahahahaha
"it's easy"
me who barely made it through normal difficulty because I can't use my go-to mains that I hyperfocused on for spiral abyss:
same, i had to bench all my mains to beat hard mode
same, play this game for 3 years now. Invested vertically into raiden, furina, eula and nahida and can't use 3 of them in this game mode. I have hutao as my only half built pyro dps, solely because i don't like to play pyro reactions. Now i am forced to do so and not even that i am forced to play with characters i never pulled for because i don't like them....
Normal mode easy honestly, I have been playing around 10months now I just lack around 4 characters until I can try hard mode
It's artificial difficulty central over here.
Every Furina/Neuv player lol. Gl yall
It's funny cuz one of the first thoughts that came to my head after trying it today was,“Yeah, Jello must be having a field day with this one"
If only building characters wasn't extremely resin dependent 😔😔😔
time dependent too! resin makes it much more difficult to build characters, but for those of us with a lack of free time it’s nearly impossible to plan out builds 😢
The actual biggest pain with this one ngl, now it feels like I'm progressing even slower than I previously was
also mora
The good thing is it lasts one month which is about enough time to build new characters
The resin dependence thing holds this end game mode back the most. It undeniably favors old players. I guess that's why they released it so far from launch.
My biggest pain point for this gamemode isn't that it is painful for anyone who doesn't horizontally invest, its that EVERY TIME YOU FINISH A BATTLE IT KICKS YOU BACK TO THE LOBBY INSTEAD OF JUST SHOWING THE MENU FOR THE NEXT ACT WHYYYYYYY
The conversations you get to have with the characters between rounds is a big draw for a lot of players, I think
I know I enjoy them, but it would make sense to give an option to avoid it.
@@maevethefox5912I just saw the character in the background and ignored them. I’m just there for the primogems.
@@maevethefox5912I do like that aspect, however they don't say anything new so it's a one and done experience and becomes incredibly tedious. 😔
@@ulrikrubyyall are so boring
Yeah that needs to go lol
the day the theatre is hydro, anemo, and pyro is the day i rejoice
Nah you will get cyro geo and electro
YOROKOBE
@@HappyPepe5💀
Cryo, Dendro, and Geo
@@smith7602 it’s sure bro gotta go for cryo crystalise (or even) geo anemo and dendro
This game mode makes me wish the process of ascending characters wasn’t such a slog
Starting from level 70 it's a pain in the archon
During sumeru I just ascended every character to 70/80 for the free wishes because I didn't have any use for my resin. I keep raising new characters to this level (except Qiqi and aloy, they are 50/60)
To be fair that parts still quite quick, its farming a set for characters that takes forever.
@@matthewsarson6934 yeah but you can swap artifacts in this mode, you just need to have some good generic sets or off-pieces
I kind of wish that we'd be allowed to enter rooms with less than 4 characters. Because the stages themselves are so easy, I'd love to try some challenge runs where I solo a stage even at c0.
+1 to this. it’s annoying to force a full team
true but that does take away from the resource management aspect and makes it a ton easier
This was the first thing I tried and was disappointed when the message popped up telling me 4 characters were required 🙃
It’s designed this way so the whales don’t have a field day
I hate I can’t do a duo of wanderer faruzan to clear some events but i had Zack characters
1) Support Characters Shine: Off-field and utility characters are much more valuable now. While they have the same Vigor as on-field characters, you'll need three times as many. Running two on-field damage dealers on one team is inefficient.
2) Friend Power: Finding friends with the right characters is crucial. They can provide the perfect support character you might be missing in your own roster.
3) Constellations Count: Built C6 4-star characters are more valuable than the trial characters provided, which are always C0.
4) Flexible Builds: The value of non-EM builds for non-Anemo characters went up. In Abyss, it's easy to define who will be the trigger of a reaction, so building EM is a no-brainer. In Imaginarium Theatre, it's hard to guarantee you'll have the necessary supports, and if the "trigger element" overtakes the "aura element", the EM on your character will not do anything. Additionally, you have to consider building your characters with more ER just in case you have to run a character without its "battery".
5) Elemental Reactions: In the current Anemo/Pyro/Electro lineup, building EM for Pyro and Electro characters is challenging. Off-field Electro application is plentiful, but Xiangling is the only consistent off-field Pyro applicator. Pyro and Electro EM builds will likely become more valuable again when we have access to other elements, especially Hydro and Dendro.
6) Save the Best for Last: Consider reserving your strongest characters for bosses, especially the final one. Familiarize yourself with the final boss's mechanics to choose the best team composition.
7) Star Challenge: Glory or Grind?: Star Challenge Stellas don't affect your rewards but are recorded in your history. If you're just interested in rewards, you can ignore them. However, if you're up for an extra challenge, try to collect them all.
I really like this new game mode, it has a lot of potential! It incentivizes building different characters and trying out new team comps, unlike the abyss which focuses more on dps checks and vertical investment. I feel like a lot of people who didn't like this don't actually play the game a lot? I mean, yeah, it takes resin and time to build the characters, but if you're in endgame then that's something you have in abundance. And if you're not in that stage of the game yet or if you play more casually, then I feel like you shouldn't expect to be able to clear endgame content so easily. I couldn't clear the abyss for the longest time but I knew that's because my teams weren't good enough yet, not because the endgame was badly designed. I just hope people remember to have fun when they play, not just push themselves to clear everything just to have more primos.
EXACTLY!! it rewards game knowledge more than abyss, i usually cant 36* the abyss due to me always using funky teams with hidden mechanics, this mode REWARDS funky teams!! so nice actually
I’m finally getting the last laugh full clearing this day one as a player who has been stupidly and stubbornly horizontally investing since release.
me core, I'm already planning to get Emilie for this reason, more dendron off field units needed.
i think part of the reason jello thinks this mode is so easy is bc he has every character built. he was not playing with a level 60 yanfei who was holding thrilling tales and no artifacts
Use Yanfei on easy stages so you can clear up a slot for another and hopefully better Pyro character. Think about Theatre as a series of math problems with easy, intermediate and hard problems. If we are allowed to use tools for these problems, using your fingers is like using Yanfei and thus better to use it on easy problems. Harder problems require better tools so using a calculator is like using say Arlecchino or Clorinde. This is just a oversimplification but I hope you get the point.
that's on you for deciding to vertically invest 😭😭 no one forced you to
all chambers can be completed with one well built dps and a well built support only, benching the other two units. if anything, a ttods yanfei is pretty good bc she is not completely useless.
@@alport1331there is no easy stage for such lvl 60 non-dps Yanfei😂
But using her on first or second floor is not even an option: she's not in the opening lineup, a run could get unlucky by not having character summon card in the beginning, she might not be available among the 2 random characters to choose from.
@@r.d.6290 Simple. Don't use her as a DPS and only put her on easy stages where she can be carried by a properly built character. She's still useful with TTDS and shield at C4 so she's not a total dead weight.
This is the first comment section I've seen of ppl feeling rather positively about the new mode! It's refreshing and also good to see more of the full range of player perceptions.
wait people aint liking it? i loved it 😭 maybe its because they cant just bruteforce neuvi-furina-baizhu-kazuha and hyperbloom on each side haha you need to know game mechanics and actual creativity! so good, so rewarding too
@@sakaom ooooooh yeah, there is a good amount of ppl not happy 😭 and tbh I can see their points about some things, but since I haven't even been playing for a full year yet, I don't have much horizontal investment. But after doing this event, I immediately started beefing up my characters and I enjoy having that kind of push 😂
@@sakaom I play Slay The Spire, this game mode is not nearly as good as that. I steamrolled it asleep on my AR60 account and it only took me 2 attempts to 8star on my f2p AR58 alt while still steamrolling it.
6/10 it's okay.
The main things I noticed: 1) Kazuha or Venti is a must for the defense stage star, unless you get one with big enemies only. 2) You don't have to get all 8 stars in one run. Focus on getting the last two stars in hard mode and then do normal mode for the first six stars.
Edit: I've since read that the stars don't actually matter. You get all the non-cosmetic rewards just for completing hard mode. The reason I didn't have to get all the stars in one run to get the rewards is because I didn't have to get any of the stars to begin with.
oh, interesting observations, thank you
Do we even need to get the stars? The stars are just for flexing right?
@@AldersonForOne they are for rewards
@@vladys001 No you don't need stars for rewards. You just need to clear the floor. The stars are just for flexing. I cleared 8 floors with 5 stars and still got all the rewards
I was able to clear it with my C6 Lynette 💪 she makes the enemies get distracted and not attack the monolith
honestly, this endgame is wonderful for genshin cause it finally highlights its biggest and most wide gameplay element, which is teamcrafting! i had soo much fun thinking about the synergies, and restraining myself cause i had to save characters for later. most old accounts had accomplished everything in spiral abyss at this point, what a way to give new life to the game!
Its not about "the perfect team" anymore, its about exploring the mechanics of all characters and essentially that is where the developers have put most of their effort in making. was definately underexplored since now
Yes ! I actually ended up using Lisa somehow in this event. In abyss i would never cause there are always better alternatives
@goodisgood153 I actually quite like using her in Neuvillette teams, she's so much better than I ever thought when I first started with her.
I agree, but the elemental restriction is really harsh. I *really* don't like pyro or anemo units.
Like why is every single Pyro dps either fragile or clunky to play?
Why does every Enemo dps need c6 Faruzan to do dmg?
@@Kmn483 i think that the difficulty is well balanced around the elemental restrictions, i was able to clear floors with hu tao basically unsupported, and then there is the option to borrow a whale char.. and yes its true that most pyro dps are clunky/hard to use but i really enjoyed the challenge
@@littlemonster7357 Yeah, but could you clear those floors if the only anemo built is Jean or only Pyro is Chevruse? The rest of my characters of those elements have no artifact sets and are level 50 or under. I really don't want to build characters I don't like just for this challenge. But I have TONS of hydro, dendro, & electro units that would love to be slapped together in teams. Chlorinde electro-charged? Sure. Nahida hyperbloom driver? it works! Tighnari bloom? Hell, I'll try it once I get Nilou.
Just don't force me to use the elements I dislike and we're good. Like if 2/3 elements for the Theater are Geo + Cryo, people will start complaining.
The game mode itself is enjoyable, but the imposed restrictions feel quite excessive. Requiring a total of 18 characters, all of which must be either electro, pyro, or anemo, seems like a significant demand, honestly
My haphazardly horizontal investment account (because I'm frolicking around trying new kits and changing my mind...) Is 2 characters away from being able to play hard mode. Luckily I don't need to build Faruzan but just need to level up Lisa, Sucrose or Fischl (yes I don't build Fischl).
@@planetary-rendez-vous I didn't build Fischl until like this year XD I feel you on that and the frolicking around trying different kits. I dusted off Ninguang recently and got her to level 40 just to see how she plays for giggles lol
Yeah whats even more screwy is they put extra rewards in for melt reactions in some acts. Like huh? Why restrict to anemo Pyro and electro but require melts?
@@Fyxxterzc I think that’s for the special guest characters since they include Wriothesley as an option or bc of Cryo and bc you’re playing pyro against cryo enemies in some
Bro it’s end game content, what do you expect ? Just invest horizontally and try out new teams.
I beat hard mode on my account and I think there doesn’t need to be any difficulty tweaking. It’s just fine as is, because it’s a trade off for the heavy restrictions their placing on our rosters.
Yea same i think the difficulty is good cause i dont wanna sweat on it and spend all my common material to build non used 4 star characters. But i think they will make it harder cause of all the complaints saying its to easy
I like theator so much more than spiral abyss
yes, and it has so much personality in it. I also like that you can talk to the 4 characters that you took to the last battle in the area
I'm not gonna lie, this was very fun and it pushed me to think of ideas of new teams and wanting to have more characters. 10/10 i loved it.
I absolutely love this mode, horizontal investment finally feels useful. I keep seeing people complain about the fact that theyre required to build characters, it feels like since genshin players are so used to being able to do whatever and find a way to clear, many casuals are now freaking out about the idea of and endgame mode requiring endgame investment. That being said, this gamemode is pretty easy regardless.
I have 80+ characters built in my arsenal with no use. This mode is amazing.
Same, I've been playing since day 1 and the first time I've used some of my characters that are not on overworld... This is way more fun than I thought
I’m pretty excited to have an incentive to horizontally invest now
Same I've been doing this since I started playing with little to no reward
But I still don't have enough yet 😅 so there's still more work to be done
i feel bad for people who got less characters :(
I not hard for me to feel their pain. All it take for me to jump on my mule account to see it my self. ON account that only have 12 character........................
Mine is lacking of Electro characters and Anemo lol, even though I have more than his 12 characters
i hate that we cant borrow characters from friends that are included in the trial chars
we cant? i thought we kinda setup the support lineup for that? yesterday i was the first among my friends who tried it, so i thought i couldnt borrow anyone because my friends hadn't setup their lineups yet
I hate that they include existing characters with Fantastical blessings towards the char limit.
Had to convert my traveler back to Anemo just to play it on hard.
I kinda figured this would be the case, so I selected several support characters for people to choose from that were not in the initial roster.
Oh damn is that true? I guess none of my friends get to use my top 1% Arlecchino 😔At least I put a bunch of decently built "rarer" characters in my showcase like Dehya, Yanfei and Chevreuse.
honestly its kinda fun having to actually build new characters
BRO this is actaully so challenging !! To decide who we can use in the right combo , i love it !!!
For the people who said this game mode is hard or annoying: stop being a meta slave or a simp, lv up your characters to lv 70, slap some random artifacts on them and have fun by building the dumbest and most random team you could put in but some how it just works. If spiral abyss is made to check your damage, this one is created to check your character roster.
I have close to 36 characters built up past their last ascension (80+), with all relevant talents leveled up to at lvl 8 (11 when cons), NO weapon sharing, NO artifact sharing. YET, this mode punishes me for not knowing how to play the characters I don't own. What good is a fully built Alhaitham or Wanderer that I don't know how to play? Honestly...
@@CarlosAnglada Isn't that the point of the theatre? It's rougelike, where you make use of whatever tools that's available regardless if you are familiar or not.
@@CarlosAnglada easy: wanderer-thoma-faruzan for the first 2 stages, save clorinde for the first bost, alhaitham for second boss and arlecchino for final boss.
Easy to say if the mats are plentiful to come by.
Kinda wish my team building wasn't rng dependent
The only thing that disappointed me was that I can’t take photos in the library domain and forced to be traveler 😭
THIS MODE MAKES ME SO HAPPY
My problem was going into it without readint the instructions so i thought the goal was trying to finish it with as many points as possible so i never had enough characters after act 5 it wasn't until the third replay i found out u were supposed to use those points 😂😂😂😂😂
It's really hard for f2p players or who vertically invested in few characters. Because we don't having 12 lvl 70 and build characters 😅. That's why we can't complete fully . I completed act 6 6* and I can't even try the hardest one because I don't have enough characters in Pyro electro and anemo.
Loved doing this when it dropped! I like that the level 70 character req is also the last ascension for the last free wish. I think this will be a stepping stone mid-end game mode for horizontal investment and learning team building while the abyss remains the vertical investment end-game.
Feels like a gut punch the way I am being punished for... [Edit: I was trying to get every star (like Abyss!) but you don't need ANY stars to get full rewards. Makes it crazy easy. They should have made it clear that you don't need any stars/achivements to get full rewards! Finished in just a few min.]
I feel the same, there's a reason I don't pull certain characters. Whatever, surely a 10 pull and Wirth the headache
Time to build different characters then. If you don't want to do it you don't get rewarded. Just like the Abyss.
@@meisterhyperion207 I was trying to get every star (like Abyss!) but you don't need ANY stars to get full rewards. Makes it crazy easy. They should have made it clear that you don't need any stars/achivements to get full rewards! Finished in just a few min
most of my characters are barely level 80 with crappy builds
... but I'm *cooking* in this game mode
I feel so vindicated lol
Restricting the characters you use is really fun and made me play teams that I never thought I would with characters I have but never got around to build up to Spiral Abyss levels of investment because why would I when I can beat everything quite easily by using a c2 Furina on the myriad teams she has.
I had some regret building Yae, Klee, or Gaming, for example, because "I already have Kuki, Fischl, and Xiangling. Why did I invest in these characters?" This mode washed away all that, and now I can see myself pulling for Chiori, Navia, Wriothesley, Venti, etc. who are all characters I love, but never pulled for because I felt like I would never use them in content.
Great environment, new character interactions, Wolfy is cute, more Hexenzirkel lore. If Natlan can be better than THIS, Genshin might just be my favorite game again.
the only con is that a wolfy plushie doesn't exist irl
I really didn't like it at first, but having a reason to build some of my neglected characters might make me log in every day again. And the presentation is nice too.
My main recommendation for the theater is, don't bring too many DPS characters. There are three in the principal cast already and you really don't need more than about two more. Bring supports if you can, or at least DPS that can work as support/sub DPS.
This I cleared but it was maximum pain as I hyper focus my favorites. Got through on hard with like half of my 18 characters without artifacts
This mode looks super fun for end-game players with how it incentivises building and playing with a super wide variety of characters.
It's not for me yet though... I've only been playing for 5 months and suffice to say I don't even have enough characters on my account, let alone built/invested in. ONE DAY THOUGH! 😅
As someone who got every single character to lvl 90 (I dislike seeing different levels on my characters) and talents up, this mode is fun.
Long time players: This mode is easy but i love the restrictions
New players: This mode is easy and i hate the restrictions
Felt way too easy for me. I actually thought that I completed only the first stage of Imaginarium and then I realized it's already over. 😐
It is actually too easy and the RNG buffs have zero impact on the gameplay. What I appreciate about it is that it is much less sweaty and time-consuming than Abyss or SU.
@@possumsam2189 Those boons helped my half baked Yoimiya beat the final boss, I had to return and buy like 10 of them but it worked. So they have some impact.
@@stanysk ngl chars have more impact than boons and you will just invest everything into acquiring more chars before the last stage.
If you have a Lvl-70 starter squad with deplorable artifacts, then boons will make that little bit of difference towards the end.
However, If you have strong high investment teams and/or that one friend with C6R5 chars, then you won't notice the boons because there is very little difference in difficulty to you.
**when you don’t have enough characters to even attempt the second and third parts of Imaginarium theatre and don’t have any mora to build up more character cause everything is so freaking expensive at high levels**
Removing half of the abyss to add this new mode was the most disgusting strategy to sell characters I've ever seen in my life.
Gotta be honest, this new mode wasn't it for me day 1. Didnt realize how many characters i used that were sharing artifacts, its actually kinda hard for me to have 12 different artifact sets fully leveled up with decent substats. Had to use a few akward 2 piece 2 piece and a few atk goblets to make certain sets work....
So far not a fan tbh...
I wish they made it like divergent universe where if your character is not built it will automatically build it for you so you could play it without restriction it really is hard for those who haven't built so many characters
Have you tried clearing with all trial characters instead of your own? I only have Kuki of all the starters and that makes it really brutal to me
I thought it was a lot of fun! Lately I’ve been just trying to expand my roster of built characters (even before I heard about this game mode) and it was a lot of fun to see my hard work pay off.
Battle pass and welkin player here. I find this game mode more annoying than hard but one thing that I find weird and good at the same time is that you only need to clear the levels to get the rewards and that the stars are basically useless. I mean the stars don’t add value to your clears. The starting team is supposed to be obligatory so that casual players get to try the mode even without having characters cuz even me as a collector I felt lacking some pyro.
Props dude this video is way better than your last one keep it going!
Remember guys you can always have amc or emc for an extra slot
honestly, so true this imaginarium theatre was made for you! i really enjoyed this game mode, the character choosing part is fun strategy!
Trial characters are fine, but I did not like being forced to use the trial characters at the beginning. It became much more enjoyable when I finally got rid of them and filled the roster with my characters.
As f2p lvl 59 (started 1 year and 5 months ago) you can easily beat this just using your already built characters, half my roster was not built and i still beat it just by using the trial 5 stars and friends c6. (I had to lvl up 1 character to lvl70 cause i had 17/18)
Half the complaints are people not having enough built characters and thats simply cause this is endgame not for people who are ar58 and lower.
The other half is it being to easy for the sweaty no life players. My answer to that is they should have something like hsr where there are extremely hard optional levels that need peak built characters and just reward you simple rewards like mora or books as it is optional end game for the top 1%
On my first try i got to act 8, but my only remaining characters were underbuilt and had really bad synergy with each other and the boss, i literally couldnt even kill the boss in time. On my second try I used all my bad characters early on and kept hoarding arlechino until she could blitz the coppelius at the end easily, even got all the stars on all floors.
Honestly had quite a bit of fun with this mode. Wasn’t paying attention and was forced to clear copellia with Raiden, Diluc, chevreuse and a Lisa with lvl 0 noblesse.
I'm low spender, few bps and maybe 20~ months of welkin. I like pulling every character I like and build them. This event was so easy for me lol
As someone who didn't really play hypercarries, mostly quickswaps with PLENTY of characters built "just alright"... my time has come ❤🔥 I like how you can retry and rewind, it feels very forgiving vs the abbyss! You don't even need to pass it with full stars, it's just bragging rights, to get full rewards you just need to... survive and get to the end. Love it here!
(I'm pretty mid at the game, but passed "hard" on my first run. And one of my boss teams was Gaming-Baizhu-Klee--Sigewinne like bruh lmao; and almost all starting characters I had to pick trial ones. Easy mode, but for players who played for a longer time. If you'd focused on one or two hypercarries for years and only that... feeling kinda badge for you ngl)
Now spam it until you can get 8 of the random buffs for the achievement.
Full cleared it first day on my AR 58 account. From final 18 characters, more than half was lvl70 and without artifacts. I liked the new mode, it will «force » me to invest horizontally and test different teams. Agree it was easy so maybe they need to add few more stages
It's like this mode was custom built for me im also a horizontal invester. Walk in the park. Bahah yup i also expecting a bit of difficulty on the beasts. Fastest clear, Chlorinde, Leney, Chevvy and XL overload. Made me realise how busted fontaine characters truly are. Ironically Leney fit nicely into Chevy downtime as a burster with a few charges
Felt great for me too, since I built a lot of characters. I also just got finished building Chevreuse, which was perfectly timed to deal with that last stage. My only issue with the mode is how it forces you to use 4 characters each time. Just felt like they forced you to waste a character at times.
I absolutely hated it. I cried today after being unable to do the defense level. Yeah, it was another straw on the overworked camel's back, but I didn't have any fun. No fun, just frustration. No real control over my lineups, unbearably stupid. My friend has Kazuha. Could I choose him for the def? No.
The return to the table every time is so stupid, gosh.
Jello, try again, but next time don't use any of your characters in place of the trial characters. All of a sudden it's not so easy. It's doable, but getting full stars with the trials is actually fairly tough. I'm vertically invested, and being forced to use units i never use in teams they're not actually all that good in is a super struggle. The free Chlorinde did less than a third of the damage yours did. I certainly played her wrong.. but my shots with her did between 1.5 to 5k. The free Arlecchino did 20 to 30k instead of your 60. When you lack built units this mode is annoying af. If they actually make it harder it will seriously gate out many players. I'm ar 59, and I was talking to an ar60 player I know, and neither of us had the units to even start hard mode, I had to build someone just to be able to even try it. That's nuts.
The geo/dendro restriction is going to be brutal when those show up.
Part of the reason I watch every one of your videos is because I build every character I have too! Am enjoying the mode and using my roster. Thanks!
I just spent the morning clearing this up to act 8. It's restricting, yet fun? (besides the part where I cleared up to Act 6 and accidentally finalized the run and had to start over)
Last boss (coppelius) took like 8 tries, with my Alhaitham (I forgot to put the stronger copy of LoFI on him), Fischl, Kuki, Diluc (my only pyro unit available for boss' cryo shield). A bit frustrating, but I managed to clear it. Can't wait for the next round.
I went in blind for my first run and my gosh I was feeling lost. It just didn't register to save characters so I ended up running of characters bc I wanted to save the flowers for some dumb reason?? I attempted coppelia with yoimiya, kazuha, Lynette and Jean and it was hilariously bad. Second time I spent the flowers (gosh I'm dumb) and ended up with raiden triple pyro. Such a difference.
This game mode was actually super fun to play my only complaint is maybe add more support cards because now the buffs feel very minimal
Quite interesting.
I only did use mid teams and full cleared it without any issues.
I have also built all of my characters! All of them have their own weapon and lvled 5 star artifact set that works on them! Imaginarium Theatre feels so rewarding to me!
I quickly had to level 2 characters to 70 so i could access the hard mode, gonna try it later when im free
Spent Fontaine making units that can clear everything abyss could throw my way with minimal effort. Now for Natlan, I can take the shotgun of shotgun approaches picking up as many units as possible to cover all my bases should Hoyo get a little funny with their element choices for subsequent theatres.
Whenever you have the opportunity, fight the Erimites, fight them? No. One should only watch them dance respectfully from a distance. 👌
Me who went on a 80/90 all characters quest but stopped due to a storm hitting us, but still managed to get most to lv 60/70 before it did: Wow, almost as if I saw this coming 3 years ago
And here I planned on using only two or three characters per team the way I did in the event that used vigor. Seems like my roster is going to need more work if I'm going to have to work on a DPS, and probably defensive support or two, of each element.
In my opinion Xianyun is a S tier as if you save her for the end you can complete the challenge using random rubbish teams.
I used her once with an all bow team just as a splash healer, and then once with a Plunge Dehya team of castoffs, it was delightful
Sucks that you need 18 characters at level 70 to access hard mode... I started in January and was able to 36 star abyss since April because of smart resource management and pulling. This mode basically punishes newer accounts trying to power up fast since it's almost impossible to both vertically and horizontally invest in a way that lets you both 36 star abyss while also being eligible to do hard mode in this.
man is trying to speedrun the game lmao
This is end game material... The game is 4 years old.
I thought i was good by 36 star abyss in 8 months and it only took you 3??? How was it even possible to farm good artifacts for two teams in 3 months of playing? 💀💀💀
I sadly can’t ply on normal mode since I don’t have enough characters built😔
surprisingly had an easy time in normal mode. only missed one star on the very last challenge. I'm pretty proud considering I just started in april. Don't have enough characters built for hard mode yet.
Lesson learned: pick all the character bonuses possible right as they're available for a bigger selection.
Edit: my best pyro DPS is my Diluc. He's great, triple crowned, well built, but deals half the damage in a Xianyun plunge team, as that trial Arlecchino does in overload with Chevreuse and Fischl.
For electro, I guess my Raiden and the trial Clorinde are my best options
For Anemo, I only have Wanderer as a DPS unit, and even he'd need off-field element applicators.
I should probably look for a well built Alhaitham in a friend's available character list, so I can go for aggravate/spread for a team as well.
All i wanted was a monthly abyss with 4 different layouts where you have to clear 2 for max rewards, and maybe a floor 13 with no primos inside. What i got was a "you can't play until you level 4 more characters to 70 because FU" mode. Right before i was going to (most likely) finally pull Nilou and build a new team.
2/10 endgame, 2 points are not for the gameplay part btw.
When I first played i thought that you need to save those purple things and never use them for more rewards in the end or something
After playing theater I think I will only build one on-fielder per element and bench all additional on-fielders. If your Yoimiya and Arle are very well built, you can absolutely just use them in the same team, but with low investment, I'd rather have my Lisa do some off-field damage.
Ironically in this mode Yoimiya is better than Arlecchino 😆 because they both have enough damage to clear the content but if you end up with too many main DPS you can at least use Yoimiya for her burst buff. Because you can't control the teams as much, the characters that are more flexable do feel a lot better now as well. I bet Ayato will be stronger than in abyss for example if Hydro is allowed next time.
The biggest problem for me as a newer player is artifact sets. I don’t have 12 level 20 sets.
This is an end game mood not for newer players
What I don't like here is I can't avail the specific character that I want to be set in this team not like in abyss I can select any character that we wanted in team up. But in theater we can only select those who are in limited character choices only😅😁
Bro I just started the quest I can’t Wait
Also, abyss does just require 2 good teams as you said. It requires up to 4 teams in order to go around all those elemental restrictions while maintaining sufficient dps. So no, just having Arle Vape and Neuvi Hypercarry isn't enough.
I think the difficulty on hard is just right. The enemies don't feel like damage sponges and the focus is on team building and strategic picks. It complements Spiral Abyss very well.
I didn't have enough leveled characters for hard mode (started in late 4.0) but overall I really do like this, especially that it's permanent. I do think it could use a few improvements next reset but overall fun. I won't lie though, I still would be so happy for a third permanent mode closer to a Simulated Universe or Elysian Realm analog. Like less restrictions and just a set of 13-ish rooms with a mix of puzzles, trash mobs, elites and a few bosses.
i love this mode its pretty fun
cant believe the day of glory because i leveled and built unusual characters has come to me. never thought i would ANIHILATE every chamber with sige-lisa-xl-dori
As someone who levels characters to 70 for fun and feel like they wasted a bunch of mats, I'm so happy they finally have a use! Honestly, I've never felt so challenged by genshin in a lONGG time
There is a bug with rewind where if you rewind and score another star it fills in for the stage you didnt get a star for... thats how i claim full reward😅
Imagine Building and Testing EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER. (So that we can decide, who to wish for and build) 😊
Aha, finally I am rewarded for building so many characters!!
Hey Jello, could you do a video of how to prepare for future IT? A lot of people are scrambling trying to build their character rosters, and I was wondering especially which 4 stars and standard banners would be a good idea to build in your opinion!
