It came to a point where professional opera singers and musicians are involved. All videos are hosted in Bilibili.

The Reddit thread also has a list of notable performances, including a performance sung in Cantonese.

The Cantonese one is really good.....and not just because that's my dialect but it just flows better IMO

[MeoTwister5]

Hokkien is my dialect (but no I'm not a native speaker) so it would have been nice if there was one.

I...managed to get the Big Dong Zhong in one multi. I just got Shenhe so still gonna be 50/50 for Yae. But still, I needed this luck elsewhere and not here. I just came from sparking my pulls in Blue Archive which was super unlucky. Guess now I can finally feel the thick shield that he gives and go unga bunga on enemies without a care.

[Liddo-kun]

got 2 Ganyu and 1 Xinque on the first try tonight. So happy.

[MeoTwister5]

I threw in the rest of my remaining wishes to get the CEO of GEO. I lost my Ganyu 50/50 to C3 Jean and my Zhongli 50/50 to C1 Keqing. While I did get them both, the least they could have done is give me C0 Mona for my troubles.

[Liddo-kun]

I have a bad feeling about these alternate outfits for Jean, Mona, Amber, and Rosaria
feels like they are the censored ones forced on to chinese players, and given as "Alternate" outfits for other servers
just deleted the mail, did not claim the outfits

edit: can't delete them in the mail

[Inverno]

I got Keqing after i lost the 50/50. Not sure if i want to keep rolling the Ganyu banner, i want her but i may regret it when Yae is out, and knowing my luck i'll probly lose the next 50/50 as well.

Damn i thought this just myth.

my time when you will come

[Liddo-kun]

I did not know how it happened, but it happened.
first time for me to get multiple characters in a 10 pull.

Ganyu is my only 5 star. Will level her up when I gather enough artifacts for her.

[Liddo-kun]

edit: can I have suggestion on good weapon for Barbara? I have a billet to forge a weapon for her, but not sure what to make.
_____________

got Ganyu again on my second 10 pull. And a 4 star bow for her to use.

with this, now opened up her second constellation.

[MeoTwister5]

Eh Sacrifical Bow isn't good for since her skill doesn't do much. You're better off crafting the Prototype Bow.

[Marina2]

So......according to a 'rumor' and some mysterious screenshots, look like we are going to get some kind of animation MV soon.

Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?

You can see Ayato in one of them too.

Fans of Rurouni Kenshin/Samurai X, Gintama and Last Blade be winning.

thanks for that info.

Either Prototype Crescent if you often hit the enemies' weak spot. If not, then use Hamayumi for good damage at the cost of only using the Burst when you really need to.
For artifacts, well...depends on your luck. Blizzard Strayer is good for consistent Crit Rate, so you only need about 30% CR and then focus on Crit Dmg.
Wanderer's Troupe is also good, but you'll need to build Crit Rate to make up for the lack of it

I've recently switched my Ganyu's artifacts from BS to WT, and although she doesn't crit as often as before, I did get a 4~5k boost in damage.


As for the current banners...I'll hold on to my gems until the next update is announced to decide if I pull for Zhongli or not.

Depends on your playstyle, but i would go with thrilling tales of dragon slayer to boost my dps's dmg

[Liddo-kun]

@Inverno

ok, thanks for the suggestion on Barbara weapon.

suggestion appreciated. Currently gathering white iron chunks for Crescent, but I'll think on those other suggestions too.

just one last thing on the censorship caused by the CCP
I read somewhere that cut scenes and certain art for the affected characters will be the censored versions as well. Do these censored versions of cut scenes and art apply only to chinese server, or to all servers?

From what it sounds like, the "alternative costumes" are going to become the default costumes worldwide as far as cutscenes and quests go (so they can be globally consistent), but in all servers worldwide except China, the original costumes will remain for characters in your possession.

(And to a point you mentioned earlier, even if you don't accept the mail with the alternate costumes, they will just show up as options in a future patch regardless. The mail delivery is just a means to get it to people sooner, given that in CN they had the even-worse hastily-created versions.)

[Liddo-kun]

thanks for the info.. well, that's actually bad and good for me. Bad because I have to see the cut scenes with the censored costumes. Good, because don't have to spend any credit card money on this game - there are several times I was tempted to go for it and pay real money for more items (thankfully, was able to resist the urge, lol)... and now that I know that censorship nazis can influence the game so easily. My feeling to spend money on this game is gone completely. Dumping money onto a character is no longer worth it, because someday she might become censored.

yeah, I know it will be forced onto people's inventories on future patches. I just want to have the satisfaction of seeing it expire in the mail (lol). And who knows, they might be gathering data on who accepted the mail and who didn't, I don't want them to think I wanted the garbage costumes they put into my mail. So letting the mail expire is the choice.

That's a super early drip marketing for Ayato. And it's not even on the usual time. There were several leaks hours ago of this same pic but is that enough to really release info this early. Then does this mean he's the only new one for 2.6? Either way, he's hot. He hardly looks like Otto or Kevin so no similarity to Honkai there.

Livestream details for 2.5 in less than 2 hours.
