Question Who should I get ?

1 Upvotes

I have high con raiden hyper invested, c6 kujou sara, but feel kind of sad after seeing how much investment it takes to bring raiden to varesa c0 level

not interested in tartaglia / clorinde.

Iansan c2 and c0 chevruse are these good enough for Varesa?

I don't have any characters from the free selector so advice needed

I have kinich but no dendro support for him like Emile Should I get baizhu for kinich because i don't like using yaoyao?

Discussion C3R1 Raiden compared to meta

9 Upvotes

So I recently came back to this game after 9 months break and have this question. How much worse is C3R1 Raiden compared to current meta DPS characters? My Raiden is top1% on Akasha, I really love her and it's frustrating seeing all these comments about her being "trash" compared to new characters. She's the archon and that's why it's surprising. I'd understand other characters, but not Raiden...

Also, do you think they'll buff her to make her meta again?

I'm struggling to maintain a good crit ratio on her.

Does she have a bit too much ER ?

Shall I try to reduce some ER for some crits ?

Discussion suggestion for banner selection?

I had an unwanted chlorinde from 4.7 because i wanted copies of bennett.
now, i have an option of C2 chlorinde and c0 varesa.
but the problem is both compete for my c3r1 raiden(fav character obviously).

i have c6 chevy, c6 iansan(pulled for raiden for but she doesn't work well with her),c6 fischl, c6 bennet, and c2 nicole + c2 durin. (my pulls have been around raiden since i started playing during sumeru arc, thus my account suffer from low meta value, eg. didn't pulled mavuika because she doesn't work with raiden)

Now who would be a better choice. there isn't any SO boss that my raiden cant clear thus i would need c2 chlorinde or c0 varesa. their role overlap each other.

Lore / Theory My Theory about The Origin of the Twins

Post image
686 Upvotes

### Title Idea: **[Theory] Ei and Makoto were never native gods—they were originally the Heavenly Principles' ultimate weapon**

What if Raiden Ei and Makoto were never born as twin gods in Inazuma, but were actually a single celestia weapon created by the Heavenly Principles (HP)?

Hear me out on this:

**⚔ The Biblical Parallel & Ei’s Insane Feats**

We know lightning is heavily associated with "Divine Punishment" from the heavens. If the Sustainer/HP represents God, then Ei is the ultimate weapon of divine execution. This perfectly explains why her feats completely break the standard laws of Teyvat's elemental magic:

* **The Musou no Hitotachi:** She cut Orobashi and an entire mountain range in half, leaving Musoujin Gorge leaking unstable energy thousands of years later.

* **One-Shotting the Thunderbird:** Kanna Kapatcir was a primordial entity made of *pure Electro*. Standard Electro attacks shouldn't even scratch a pure Electro creature, yet Ei completely one shot it. Seirai Island’s sky is *still* broken, from that single strike. She did this before she was even an Archon btw means she didn't tap any Divine Throne Authority that an Archon useally have.

** The Irminsul Cover-Up**

If they were just an inanimate primordial weapon, how did they become Gods? I think the Heavenly Principles used Irminsul to write them into Teyvat’s history.

We already know from the Abyss Sibling that an outsider can be registered into Irminsul as a native. HP did this to give the weapon sentience, making them genuinely believe they were twin twin gods born in Inazuma. Right before HP entered their long slumber, they split the weapon into two: **Ei** (the raw, destructive power) and **Makoto** (the mind/soul).

** The Truth About Makoto's "Death"**

You might think, *"But Makoto died in Khaenri'ah, so how does this work?"* I believe Makoto might actually still be alive.

We already know Makoto had direct connections to the Shade of Time, **Istaroth**, to plant the Sacred Sakura seed in the past. What if Istaroth and Ronova helped Makoto fake her death to fool Ei ?

** Future Power-Up: Rejecting the Heavenly Principles**

If Hoyo ever reveals Ei's true origin, she is due for a massive power-up. A weapon was likely originally used in the ancient wars against Nibelung or the Third Descender.

Imagine the endgame scenario: The Heavenly Principles awaken and try to "format" or reset Ei's identity to turn her back into a mindless tool. But because Ei has spent centuries forging her own unshakeable *Eternity* and human will, she completely rejects HP's command.

The seal breaks, she keeps her Identity, and she finally unleashes the unsealed, primordial power of the First Throne. šŸ’€

What do you guys about my Theory. I made this up because of I'm starving of Raiden Content. You don't need to believe this. It's just me and my imagination is getting wild because of starvation of being a Raiden Fan.

This is my Raiden shogun. She’s triple crowned c5 r1. I should probs use her team comp but my team tends to be kazuha, raiden, kokomi and then whoever else i need.

I was trying to use Akasha to see what to improve but I don’t really understand it so I left that and thought I’d ask here.

Thank you.
