I feel like it's obligatory that I post something here haha. (Though funnily enough, I chose my username before Wanderer was.. well Wanderer at all.)

I've been playing Genshin for little over a year now, university has afflicted me with both a massive caffeine addiction and a pixel husbando/waifu addiction. I'm more of an Arknights player, but I enjoy Genshin for a form of gacha that's more relaxed and open-world centric. I've honestly been loving the huge open world maps, and I've always enjoyed experimenting with the combat system and engaging with the lore. Yes, it is absolute agony to get nothing but Lavawalker's from the Crimson Witch of Pain domain, but I've developed a tolerance by now.

I primarily main Venti (Hypercarry DPS) and Yoimiya (Overvape) because they are best boy and best girl respectively. In the future, I plan to main Ganyu (Morgana), Tighnari (Spread/Aggravate), Jean (Sunfire), and of course Wanderer (Freeze, one Anemo hypercarry is enough for me haha.)

In terms of saving… I'm ironically waiting most for a Wanderer rerun, but not for the man himself. I did something like 260 pulls during his first banner hoping for c6 Faruzan, and ended up with about as many Wanderers as I did Faruzans. It was absolute insanity.

I've played off and on since the first Hu Tao banner or so. I got her without knowing what her kit did, and unfortunately I don't like her HP burn mechanic so she mostly just sits in the back of a box now, forgotten…

I guess I “main” Kazuha and Kokomi, mostly - almost all of my teams use one or both of them. I also use Heizou, Ayato, Tighnari, Albedo, Rosaria, and Kuki a lot, and I'm planning on using Kaveh and Baizhu regularly but haven't quite got a satisfying team set up for them yet. I also really like Yun Jin, Kujou Sara, and Candace, but haven't found a reason/way to build them satisfactorily. Maybe I just need to level Yun Jin for Kokomi hypercarry or something.

As for savings, I dumped everything I had on Baizhu and will probably pull until broke on the Kazuha rerun (I want to eventually c6 him). Nothing else in the announced next banners has really caught my interest, so past that it's waiting for Fontaine or maybe a Cyno/Wanderer rerun. I'd also like to pick up Alhaitham and Yoimiya at some point.

I have kind of a love/hate relationship with the game and tend to take extended leaves of absence. I cannot count how many times I've gotten the returner's bonus. I've also been helping a friend grind through the early game and the cracks have been beginning to show (i.e., she pulled Heizou and couldn't level him until AR 30+, which is 10-20 hrs of gameplay at least). That being said, I really enjoy the exploration and think combat can be really fun, if somewhat dependent on what characters you have. Lore/storytelling can be a bit of a mixed bag but Sumeru did some really interesting things.

Hello everyone. I hope no one managed to eat poisonous mushrooms that they picked up in their walk through the forest.

Heh, I think you can guess my main is and who I simp for the most (well, along with Albedo.) I spy a few others who had gotten to snagg Genshin names on here. I'm loving it! I used to main Kazuha, then it was Xiao, and now it's Tighnari because I adore that fox boy way too much for my own good. <3 He is so precious.

I'm a Day One player who took a break for a few good months, but I am now sitting at AR 60 and I have never missed a day since my return. I have multiple side accounts that I kind of forgot about, my Asia one is far luckier than my main, lol. With several 5 stars within 50 pulls. It's stolen most of my luck a lot and continues to do so, lol. Legit, I got Mona, then Diluc on the beginner banner, then Wolf's Gravestone on standard, then Ganyu on her banner, and was stunned at my luck. But then on my main, I'm hitting hard pity for Baizhu and losing it to Mona. xD

I absolutely adore the lore in Genshin - finding myself reading through all the books that I come across, and reading every single one of the character stories too. Lore nerd alert~ The gameplay is amazing as well and I've grown far too addicted to it. I switched from playing FFXIV and Genshin to just playing Genshin most of the time.

I'm not too interested in the meta, but I'm a completionist, so I'll be pulling all the characters, but on my own time. I first go for the characters I want. I still don't have Ganyu, but for all the banners that she reruns in, I wanted the other character. x'D I tried to go for her after getting C1 Baizhu (Lost pity, then got him, then won pity. He was first because I have been waiting for Baizhu since the start!), yet Mona decided to grace me with her presence, again. I would have rather lost to Tighnari because I need to C6 him so badly! There are only a few characters that I ever plan to C6. Tighnari is the main one that I must C6, which will come eventually (and I'm also waiting for the moment the rerun Hunter's Path, because my Nari neeeeeeeds it!). The only other C6 I have that I wanted to get immediately was Zhongli, and he's so good! Others I want to get to C6 now are Cyno, Xiao, Yae Miko, Baizhu, Albedo, Raiden, Yelan, and a few others. But that will be a long time coming. If I'm able to, I'll pull for a constellation or two whenever their banners come around and I'm not aiming for a new character's banner. Welkin and BP are helping with giving me extra pulls.

I've been having the time of my life in Sumeru, mainly because of the Dendro element. It's my favorite element right now. Buuuuut, I can also say that it's so much exploration, especially in the desert regions.

Hello! Tis i Zhongli. Im fairly sure its obvious who my favorite character is lol. I just love his grandpa story times and his osmanthus wine quotes every 5 seconds. Its very “soothing” lmao. I have been playing for awhile,my main focus was c6 zhongli which i achieved. Im one of those madlads that uses him as a physical dps/shield/healer. Its pretty nice. I also plan to c6 dottore if he ever runs.

@Tighnari love your username! I don't play myself but I love watching my friends play and Tighnari is my favorite character, to the point where I'm considering scrying a fan-wolf for him.

Jenshin yes.

Lore-invested Tighnari main here! I've been playing for about a year, but for the first few months the only thing I could play on was my little brother's PS4, and it could barely run the game, so I didn't play often. I've got my own PC that I play on now. I'm AR50 and still can't find my way around the map; I love open-world games yet I'm horrible at navigating. :P I can't get a good artifact to save my life, but it's fine; I don't really care about meta, as long as I can do enough damage to beat up the enemies in a reasonable amount of time, I'm good.

I have too many favorite characters. I like Tighnari, Collei, Albedo, Kazuha, Shenhe, and Thoma. Xingqiu's my sworn brother, Nahida's my favorite archon, and I want to adopt Wanderer. Speaking of, what did everyone name Wanderer? I named him Azad. I wanted to give him a name that sounds Sumeran since he has a Sumeran Vision, and Azad means freedom, so I thought it would fit well. The Sumeru archon quests are the best yet in my opinion, and I can't wait to see what Fontaine has in store!
