| Character Details | Baizhu, the owner of "Bubu Pharmacy," is a master of the medicinal arts. He is benevolent and kind, yet also shrouded in mystery and other contradictions. Despite having countless admiring physicians begging for his attention, he has insisted on choosing a zombie who can barely sort medicinal ingredients to be his apprentice. And though only a mortal, a talking snake with powerful spiritual energy is always wrapped around his shoulders. Maladies major and minor may all be mitigated with his medicine, but the physician seems unable to cure himself. Such a person does not go unnoticed in Liyue, for the greater a person's capabilities, the greater the calamity they could cause should their heart harbor any evil intent. Yet both public observation and private investigation have not only found no trace of any hidden wickedness, but have seemed to confirm time and time again that his unimpeachable reputation as a benevolent doctor was, in fact, the unvarnished truth. As for all those inscrutable secrets, Baizhu simply smiles and laughs: "Good medicine is so bitter, so it shouldn't be a problem to let a good doctor keep a few secrets, no?" |
| Character Story 1 | Though he was widely known by the moniker "Mr. Bai," Baizhu's last name isn't "Bai." The origins of this misnomer can be traced back to his apprentice at Bubu Pharmacy, Qiqi, and her sieve-like memory. When she first arrived at Bubu, her memory was even worse than it is now, and she would even forget to return to the Pharmacy at night after going out to gather herbs and ingredients during the day. Fortunately, Baizhu is always patient when dealing with patients, and doubly so when dealing with Qiqi. At first, he attempted to have her stay at the Pharmacy and rest, but Qiqi was always resolute and could not be dissuaded from harvesting materials, saying: "My responsibility." Helpless to stop her, Baizhu would personally go out to find her each and every time, and remind her of the fact she lived with him at Bubu Pharmacy over and over and over and... With a memory like what Qiqi sported then, remembering anyone's full name was beyond the realm of possibility. So for a long time, the names "Baizhu" and "Changsheng" were simply replaced with "that person" and "that snake." Ever one to prescribe just the right medicine for the disease, Baizhu prepared a notebook for Qiqi to write in and review whenever she had time. Finally, there came a morning when Qiqi saw Baizhu and did not cock her head and ask who he was, but said: "Good, morning. Bai... Bai..." Changsheng was ecstatic, and immediately extended her body outward, even more excited than Baizhu: "Yes, yes, Bai-what now? And how about me? Don't forget about me—" "Mr. Bai." Qiqi answered earnestly. "And, long... long, snake." "—Outrageous! My name isn't 'long snake'—" "Remembering things is like curing an illness. One cannot be too greedy for progress, but be satisfied with gradual improvement." Baizhu smiled slightly and nodded, as though having accepted the name "Mr. Bai." In the days that followed, the phrases "Mr. Bai said" and "Mr. Bai won't allow it" were never far from her lips, and the endless stream of customers asking after medicine soon brought the name "Mr. Bai" out of Bubu Pharmacy to every corner of Liyue Harbor. Qiqi's notebook has been filled to bursting and then some, and today she no longer needs to consult it before recalling Baizhu and Changsheng's names. But "Mr. Bai" had already found its home in the hearts of some, and it was too late to change it. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 2 |
| Character Story 2 | Baizhu is not only a brilliant physician, but possesses considerable business acumen. This should not come as a surprise — it would be impossible to operate a such a large pharmacy on the strength of one's medical skills alone. The prices at Bubu Pharmacy are generally fair, and the pricing strategy for most products is one of high sales with low margins on each transaction. But there is some merchandise priced at a curious premium — such as the "Everlasting Incense," which was 2,990,000 Mora even after a discount. Usually, the customers for goods like these aren't picky about price, and only care about the quality and effectiveness. So why head to the market to haggle and search, when you can get everything you need at Bubu Pharmacy? Even if it's a bit more expensive, the peace of mind provided by Mr. Bai's reputation is worth it. Naturally, price is not Bubu Pharmacy's only competitive advantage. Many of the customers are businesspeople who have become "partners," bringing Baizhu rare herbs from across the land and exporting the medicines he develops to every corner of the world. As the pockets of Bubu's business partners began to bulge, so too did the Pharmacy's ledgers. But the objectives of Baizhu's plans do not seem to revolve solely around Mora itself. If they did, why would Bubu Pharmacy take care of someone with no positive impact on income flow like Qiqi? It makes no sense from a business perspective. When encountering unusual or novel diseases, Baizhu often accepts only a token fee, saying "It is difficult to assess a fee for such a rare ailment." As this practice has persisted, clients from far beyond Liyue have come to seek treatment at Bubu Pharmacy. Baizhu never refuses a patient, and is very willing to treat people from all walks of life, regardless of the disease that afflicts them. Thus has the good doctor cultivated a reputation as a selfless and benevolent healer who makes money elsewhere, presumably so that he can continue to perform acts of kindness far into the future. But only Baizhu himself understands the truth: Bubu Pharmacy never engages in unprofitable transactions. Some goals are impossible to even think about without massive financial backing and a reliable network supplying resources from across the world. Even with sufficient wealth, those goals would have little chance of success without the right opportunities and a bit of luck. As for the chance to research the secret arts of the adepti and strange diseases... these are opportunities no amount of Mora could ever buy. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 3 |
| Character Story 3 | Baizhu habitually has a pot of water before boiling a pot of tea after waking up early in the morning. There is never a shortage of pastries at the Pharmacy, both sweet and salty, delivered from nearby shops and from around the neighborhood. This routine has never ceased, and is unchanged through all four seasons. The snacks are divided into three portions, two large and one small. The large plates are for Baizhu and Herbalist Gui, and the small plate is for Qiqi and Changsheng. Whichever of them so desires can take a bite, and this counts as having had breakfast with everyone. In addition, the doors of the Pharmacy are always lined with fresh supplies when it opens in the morning: vegetables, rice, fresh fish, melons and fruits... there is always an abundance of food at Bubu Pharmacy. Baizhu has repeatedly attempted to persuade the community not to give him such gifts, as he does not like to take things from others for free. But the public knows that Dr. Baizhu doesn't always charge for his consultations, and offers steep discounts upon already reduced prices to the people. The child of this family, the grandfather of that household... The number of people who have benefited from his care is beyond count. Of course, since cheaper healthcare means more Mora in the pocket, using the savings to give gifts by way of thanks is a perfectly sensible thing to do. Baizhu's attempts to dissuade his well-wishers were defeated by this logic, and his only remaining response was to ask Herbalist Gui to bring all the gifts from the door into the shop. After breakfast, the clinic opens for consultations. Baizhu remains in the shop to see patients, and Herbalist Gui delivers medicines wrapped and prepared the previous night to elderly patients who have difficulty walking. Each package comes with a detailed note explaining clearly both the frequency and quantity of medicine to be taken for the convenience of the patient. When patients begin arriving at the clinic, Changsheng takes leave of her perch on Baizhu's body and wanders about the clinic. If she catches Qiqi performing her calisthenics in the courtyard, she will wind about Qiqi's shoulders and help her keep time with a "one two three one two three," and so on. If she runs into Herbalist Gui delivering medicine in the corridor, she will rest on his arm and ask after the latest neighborhood gossip. After the talking is done, the medicine weighted and packaged, and the tea has cooled, it is time for lunch. At this time, Baizhu is at leisure to personally prepare a nutritious meal and sweet soup that are both healthy and tasty for all who come to call. Afternoons in Liyue Harbor are a leisurely affair, with studying children, tottering old grandparents, Millelith carrying spears... An endless patter of footfalls. Changsheng and Qiqi lie by the pharmacy door, basking in the sun and watching the flow of people. They idly observe that the one on the left has let their hair grow too long and needs a haircut, while that one on the right has a rash on their face, and might be suffering from an internal imbalance. The sound of their chatter reaches Herbalist Gui's ears, and fearing disturbing others, he brings over a bench and moves Changsheng and Qiqi back inside the pharmacy. The commotion reaches Baizhu's clinic, and he listens to their exchange as he writes a prescription. Time is like boiling water in a copper kettle: at once both a turbulent tumult but also sitting quietly beside you. As night falls, Bubu Pharmacy closes for the day. Herbalist Gui sometimes stays for dinner, and sometimes goes home to eat with his family. Then only Baizhu, Qiqi, and Changsheng remain, and the two people and one snake may eat and drink to their hearts' content, returning to their rooms to rest by the light of the moon. One cannot call such a day anything out of the ordinary. It is simply a day at Bubu Pharmacy. Though, if Herbalist Gui suddenly had the thought to come back and take a peek before going to bed, more likely than not he would happen upon Baizhu teaching Qiqi new exercises in the courtyard to keep her limber. One-two-three, one-two-three... Morning, noon, and night, spring, summer, and fall — oh, and also winter... Calisthenics and life both have their rhythm. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 4 |
| Character Story 4 | The storyteller rapped the wooden table, opened his mouth, and began to tell a tale of ghosts and demons. Though the public loves to hear these stories, they get old after too many tellings, and so people asked, "is there anything else? You've told the one about the jewel-seller and the one about the thief, what else is there?" At that moment, Baizhu came down the stairs, and the audience saw him and thought to themselves: Dr. Baizhu has many stories, surely, but putting them into a book might be far too difficult. Other than discussing his exemplary behavior and medical ethics, if one wishes to say a few words about him over tea or after dinner, the most that can be talked about is the Doctor's private pursuit of the adeptal arts and the like, a matter that Baizhu has never intended to conceal. There are a multitude of visitors to Bubu Pharmacy, and those with sharp eyes cannot avoid noticing the books Baizhu reads in his spare time. In addition to medical treatises are ancient tomes which record the ways in which the adepti may be sought out. In addition, the medicine chests at Bubu Pharmacy contain a multitude of rare herbs and ingredients which are of no use in treating common illnesses, but are constantly used and replenished in an endless cycle. Though the average patient may not understand the arcane implications, those from families which practice alchemy or thaumaturgical arts can instantly recognize that all of these are ingredients used to refine various "Elixirs of Immortality" spoken of in legend. For most ordinary people, "immortality" is simply too strange a concept. But there are people whose curiosity will be aroused, and who will seek to know just how Baizhu wishes to attain immortality and how far along the road he has come... But this has proved akin to walking on a tightrope at night — it is difficult to take even a single step. Eventually, news of Baizhu's quest spread. Once the news was leaked, people formed an opinion. Some coveted his knowledge, some opposed this pursuit, and others didn't particularly care about his goal of immortality, but were concerned about the trouble his methods might cause. Baizhu himself was in his clinic, but his fingers were on the pulse of the street, and he had anticipated this would happen. In the vast land of Liyue, the concerns of the third group of people would be the most difficult to assuage. He had initially planned to quietly dispel any doubts, but the name "Baizhu" had already appeared on the Ministry of Civil Affairs' persons of special interest list. Fortunately, Baizhu always conducted himself impeccably in his daily life, and is amiable and willing to chat with his patients during their consultations. From these visits, he learned that the Ministry of Civil Affairs was keeping a close eye on him. He saw through their methods, and turned the ears and mouths of the people to his own ends, letting them spread the word on his behalf that his research and approach had no ill intent and would cause no trouble. Rumors spread more quickly than the most infectious pathogen, and soon the fact his quest was benign had spread to every corner. This push and pull between Baizhu and Ministry continued for some time, but eventually he was able to avoid unwanted attention and his name avoided appearing in the top secret intelligence reports of the owner of Yanshang Teahouse, Yelan. As for the aforementioned second group of people, their beliefs are already a known quantity, and set in stone. Many are the descendants of a clan that believes firmly in the principle that some things are divinely ordained, and that the impermanence of life and permanence of death are among those immutable truths. It must be pure coincidence that the representative of this second group lives but a street away at Wangsheng Funeral Parlor. As the saying goes, neighbors are like relatives and friends, and Bubu Pharmacy and Wangsheng Funeral Parlor have had many interactions over the years, and both parties greet each other with a smile when their paths cross in the street. As for those questions of life and death, death and life, the opinion of the 77th Director of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor Hu Tao is as follows: If the matter cannot be explained or settled in a couple words, it's better to have Baizhu over for dinner! And as for a sensible person like Baizhu? Of course one should attend the banquet! Season after season, year after year, without going into too much detail, the two households with very different views have spent many a day together, and could be considered close friends, albeit with each keeping their secrets. When two parties do not align closely, they merely speak of etiquette. But when they align, one may speak of duty. For Bubu Pharmacy is in the business of healing the sick, and in the course of business it is inevitable that there will be those beyond saving or at the end of their lives. Those with good fortune are cared for by their family, but those less lucky will breathe their last in Bubu Pharmacy. When this happens, Bubu Pharmacy and Wangsheng Funeral Parlor will jointly ensure their final rest is peaceful. The last rites and journey of the deceased is of great importance, and Director Hu Tao entrusts this to her most dependable consultant, Zhongli. For Bubu Pharmacy, Baizhu cares greatly for those patients who pass away under his care, and personally sees to their arrangements. The two parties hold a ceremony in a secluded thatched cottage in the dead of night. Baizhu sends the deceased there, and the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor consultant holds the ceremony and performs the final rites, carrying out each step in an orderly manner. Even if it is simply going through the motions, the departed may rest in peace. It is a pity that though the soul has passed on, no living soul will ever thank Bubu Pharmacy or Wangsheng Funeral Parlor on the deceased's behalf. But the heavens wheel ever onward, and so too does the cycle of life and death continue unceasingly. Doctor and Funeral Director and consultant are neighbors by coincidence, friends over the dinner table, but only truly meet heart-to-heart when conducting the solemn duty of seeing off the souls of the deceased. Once they walk out of that thatched cottage, they return to their former selves. As for the aforementioned first type of people, those who covet the secret of immortality, though they are many in number, their methods are crude, and they are easy to deal with. Bandits are common in the wilderness and in the mountains, and a few particularly stupid and shortsighted ones once ran into Baizhu alone on a mountain road. Baizhu was refining medicine, and the bandits, having heard rumors of Baizhu's quest, came to the conclusion that he had made something of value here in this remote location. They struck, expecting to plunder the secret medicine Baizhu had created. A few hours later, the Millelith arrived at the scene of the crime, having received a report. It was difficult to tell who was the real victim, with the ruffians laid out upon the ground and Baizhu standing beside them with a smile. "The facts of the case come first, so forgive me for asking," the Millelith soldier began hesitantly, "but did you really come to place this remote just to make cold medicine?" "If I was refining some special medicine..." Baizhu laughed and shook his head. "Would they ever have found me?" These stories traveled round and round, eventually returning to the ears of the storyteller. He thought for a moment, then shook his head and sighed: "Forget it. At the end of the day, Dr. Baizhu is just a doctor. What fascinating tales could there be?" * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 5 |
| Character Story 5 | Every time the weather turns cold, the threshold of Bubu Pharmacy is crowded with patients seeking a consultation. But today, Baizhu's silhouette was nowhere to be seen. Only his assistant Herbalist Gui was at the counter, prescribing medicine and dispensing medicine. Those with recurring illnesses who visited frequently knew what this meant. It was "one of those days" again, and so they took the medicine carefully wrapped by Herbalist Gui. They offered their best wishes, such as "Please tell Dr. Baizhu to care of himself," and shuffled out the door. At that moment, Qiqi came in from the doorway and bumped into an old man's calf. Holding her hat tight, she nodded and hurried to the back room with her stiff steps as quickly as she could. "It's one of those days" isn't a particular time or place, but rather is shorthand for an oft-used statement: The Doctor is ill, and cannot see patients today, so we are sorry you came all the way here for nothing, please come back some other time. It is hard for physicians to cure themselves, and this is true for Baizhu as well. Baizhu claims that it is simply a chill, but he knows that he has a weak constitution, and all of his internal organs are diseased. Though his life is not in imminent danger, nine out of ten doctors would be dumbstruck, only able to gape in wonder at the nature of this rare and incurable disease. Therefore, whenever his symptoms flare up, all Herbalist Gui and Qiqi can do is bring him hot water, cloth towels, and plates of fruit to show their concern. Baizhu does not wish others to worry on his behalf, and insists on being alone in his room with only Changsheng for company. With the curtains pulled over the tightly closed windows, the room was dark and gloomy. Baizhu lay down, tormented by the chills and following hot flashes, occasional breathing problems, and intermittent yet intense full-body pains that often came whenever his symptoms flared up. After a bout of agony, he joked to Changsheng, "If I don't make it one of these days, it'll be a giant hassle, won't it?" Changsheng slithered up the head of the bed and looked down at Baizhu's sweat-soaked visage with human-like pupils. "Oh you, oh you, you may lie, but you may not die. Who is it that wishes to live forever? You are not yet old, and haven't yet experienced a full life." A man and a snake, the snake with human eyes and the man with snake eyes. A strange phenomenon indeed. Few know the truth behind such an enigmatic anomaly. In fact, the pupils in their eyes are proof of their greatest secret — the contract between them. The result of this contract is the Baizhu of today — practicing medicine to save lives and alleviate the pains and aches of humanity, but also embedding illness deep into his own bones, where they reside forever with no hope of relief. And in the land of Rex Lapis, God of Contracts, the law is supreme and contracts must be abided by. Liyue is an ancient country with a multitude of spiritual beings and magic, and the contents and types of contracts are equally varied. But Baizhu and Changsheng never discuss the contents of their own contract, and always share the same response: Contract? It's just an agreement, you could say it's just a secret technique with a couple of restrictions on how it can be passed down. Those too old or young, those who are insincere of heart, the inhuman, all of these cannot inherit this technique... What else is there? Oh, yes. "Those not fated to cannot inherit it!" Qiqi put down the tea tray and hot water, closing the door behind her as she left. Baizhu watched her leave before let out a long sigh, as though he had a thousand worries caught in his throat, but was unable to give voice to a single one. All he could do was shift the conversation to a distant rumor— In ancient times, there was once a Mt. Yaojun, and the master of the mountain and their tea-loving friend once made a pact to wait until the tea trees on the mountain had grown, then hold a tea banquet, inviting all the adepti to partake of their tea. What a beautiful thing that might have been! But alas, of the two Adepti who made the agreement, one sank into the water like the residual remnants of tea leaves, and the other lost all ten of their fingers for picking tea, and even their memories of the past faded and were forgotten. Changsheng hissed an impatient reply: "What's so strange about that? The adepti are gone, but don't their tea trees remain? The tree and tea leaves will remember their ancient agreement in their stead. You should worry more about yourself, for if you and I leave, only Herbalist Gui, Qiqi, and the wood of the house and bricks on the floor will remember the two of us." The name of the contract with Changsheng is known as "Way of the Dragon-Dragging Jade Snake." Only the name of contract is known, and not even Changsheng can explain the details, only that she learned it long ago. If you ask who she learned it from, she cannot recall even a bit of tangential information. Talking about the distant past with Changsheng is often like this. Baizhu is used to listening to her advice, though, and understands she has good intentions. Thus did he vomit up the blood stuck in his throat before sitting up straight against the head of the bed. Changsheng glanced over: "What're you looking at me for? I don't have hands to support you with." Cradling the soup made for him by Herbalist Gui and Qiqi, Baizhu slowly drank it. He got through it one spoonful at a time, his eyes never leaving the soup for a moment, as though there was an entrancing scene of spring flowers and autumn leaves at the bottom of the bowl. The small things, one at a time. The basic essentials of daily life. Life is like soup, boiling and cooking. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 6 |
| Bubu | In Liyue, a form of divination is often used to predict fortune and peril or ask the gods for guidance. The people of Liyue call their particular art "Zhanbu." It is said that in ancient times, medicine and "Zhanbu" were tightly linked and often confused. With no scientific understanding of birth, old age, sickness, or death, the ancestors could do naught but pray to the gods for wellness and take medicinal herbs for comfort. Over time, countless generations experiencing sickness and recovering upon taking different herbs were able to distill their knowledge into a set of rules, making breakthroughs in their understanding of medicine. Thus was medicine born, with trained physicians curing the sick. After becoming an heir to this medical tradition, Baizhu brought Changsheng to Liyue Harbor to open a pharmacy and practice medicine in the bustling port city. At that time, the following story took place: According to the traditions of Liyue, new businesses must divine an auspicious time for their grand opening using the art of "Zhanbu." By sticking to the preordained opening day, the business will prosper and enjoy fame and fortune. But Baizhu did not wait until the day of good fortune. One night, a mother brought her fever-stricken daughter to the door of the pharmacy, frantically pounding on the door. ... Early the next morning, the neighbors were shocked to discover that the pharmacy had opened several days early, with no fanfare or celebration. "Aren't you afraid of going bankrupt and losing everything?" Changsheng's voice was full of regret. "All you did was treat an emergency case last night, why would you need to open up shop early?" Baizhu replied as he wrote a prescription: "Every day delayed is another day the patients must wait for their consultation. Besides, what pharmacy wants business to boom? We aren't hoping for more people to get sick, are we?" "That doesn't mean you should just throw open the doors without even thinking of a name for our shop! And what about a celebratory message for the grand opening?" "A name and a message... Then let us send the message that no matter the fortunes of this shop, or the diseases afflicting our patients..." Baizhu picked up the prescription note and faced the rising sun framed through the door. "...Or our fates, we don't need to ask the gods or use divination any longer." In the language of Liyue, "Zhanbu" is divination, but "bu" can also be the word for a refusal or negation. Thus, he chose a name that enshrined his beliefs. The rays of sunlight were shining through the door and the thin paper in his hand, with the words written by his hand clear and confident— "Bubu Pharmacy, Baizhu." * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 4 |
| Vision | When Baizhu was young, his hometown was struck by a horrific plague. Fortunately, his master was practicing medicine there, and was able to contain the spread. But no miracle could bring back the lives that had already been lost. Having lost both his parents, Baizhu began to follow in the footsteps of his master, learning the physician's art. The world is full of strange and complicated diseases, but Baizhu's master was always able to provide treatment. Studying with his master, Baizhu learned a simple truth: Disease is dangerous, but it can ultimately be overcome with human intellect. ...Until the day finally came that Baizhu's master was completely exhausted by the maladies brought on by a contract, and could hold on no longer. Though Baizhu had learned much in those years, he was still unable to do anything in the face of such a complicated and serious affliction. That most intractable disease in the world, the one with no cure or answer — death — had finally come for his master. Was there really no escape from sickness and death for mortals? The memories of his parents coughing blood from his youth had grown hazier over the years, but the scene of the cold tombstone of his master was crystal clear before his eyes. Standing before his master's grave, Changsheng's normally playful words were tinged with an imperceptible sense of melancholy. "Who knows how many more people will take on this contract..." Baizhu did not want to see yet another precious life slip away before his eyes. "No. This contract will end with me." When he next opened his eyes, they shone with a golden light, as though they were unquenchable candles. The first thing reflected in his now vertical pupils was a Vision, appearing briefly like a firefly on his master's tombstone. The Vision was like the gaze of a god who had witness to everything, but it was also like those of his master, gentle and full of expectation. * Unlocks at Friendship Lv. 6 |

His buffs get better the higher your EM are.
So the better your account gets, the more value you can get from Baizhu.
The corresponding EM which would be needed to keep up for the buff of a 50k Baizhu in bloom can be calculated with the formula
f(x)=(-x^2-4000x-4000000)/(x-30000)
with x beeing the EM of your bloom trigger.
So an Trigger with 1300EM (can be easily achived with Nahida Buff) and Baizhu Buff does the same DMG than a 1680EM trigger without Baizhu.
Objection. It is just increase by multiplier your base aggravate and bloom dmg not entire dmg. Example with 40k Baizhu will +0.8×4340.56 = 3472 for burgeon and hyper bloom and +1663×0.32=532(agravate) or +1808×0.32=578(spread) but agra and spread can be crit and but all bonus for Baimid can increase further with deep wood. However it so fking hard to also gain 180-200 Er with 40k hp and mapleR5 especially with deep wood sets otherwise make any 1 ware deep wood instead of him which is make it even harder to farm to farm.
My example was explicitly for bloom, because you have less EM on aggravate units (because of crit stats).
Furthermore you have no split scaling on bloom so you can exactly calculate the benefit you will het from him.
The problem is, that the higher your EM already is, the less benefit you get from additional EM. This is where Baizhus flat bloom buff comes in pretty handy.
Personally I will run him on R5 Prototype Amber with a 2pc HP / 2pc ER set. It has a HP substat and reduces is ER needs.
I’m currently at 50k HP and 190 ER but I will try to get the 10 remaining ER until he releases.
I don’t like deepwood on him, because he has a slow dendro application (=dmg) with his burst and the dmg is only single target. (I might change it later, though)
you mean his A4 buff?
I think It will give same value adding to your bloom dmg regardless of your EM.
At 50k HP he will give 100% additive to after your normal bonus from EM.
it’s not 100% as in double the damage on anything.(or to say it’s not multiplication after EM bonus, it doesn’t interact with the current character EM at all)
Let’s say your EM is 900 , it will give about 500% bonus to bloom. Adding 100% from Baizu you get 600% bloom bonus. (totaling 700 % dmg)
Let’s say your EM is 130 , it will give about 100% bonus to bloom. Adding 100% from Baizu you get 200% bloom bonus. (totaling 300 % dmg)
if base hyper bloom dmg lv 90 is 3907 : 100% bonus of that is always another 3907 no matter what’s your EM right?
If anything it’s about 120-150 EM boost equivalent For bloom and quicken alone without actually boosting EM.
** values are from https://genshin.mingyulab.com/game_system/elemental_reaction and in game
Still too low if compare him with Kazuha who can increase dmg to multiple element by percentage and can pack up midget enemy and apply element too. Baimid only exist for one purpose is to improve dendro dps but he fail and heal or shield is not necessary at all for high end player we only need massive dps boost for abyss which will become a lot harder in Fontain.
My point is that the more EM you have the more EM you need to get additional bloom dmg and bloom only scales with EM and buffs like these.
true and wrong at the same time. the more em and reaction bonus dmg you have the worse it gets.
with 75k hp nilou (gives +4 reaction bonus) and 1300 em you get 11,3x and with 1680 em or his passive (what is +1 and this is a bit of a digression, but it might not even trigger on the right char) it’s 12.3x what is a 8,8% dmg increase that’s mediocre for a buff in this game at best.
compare this with 0 em (and nilou again) you get 5x without and 6x with his buff what is 20% more dmg. (that’s equivalent to 133 em what is indeed less then 380 em)
but still the less em you have the more reaction bonus buffs dmg wise because of diminishing return.
em and reaction bonus are just added together and do not multiply but since em just flattens so badly on a high value reaction bonuns outperforms it by that much.
on a very high em value em just has no value anymore and reaction bonus just happened to have more value then em. your exemple just shows how small the difference is dmg wise between 1300 to 1680.
they should have give him sth like nahida’s c2 what is always and at all time a straight 20% dmg increase.
if we use the 1300 em exemple with nilou buff but without baizhu buff nahida’s c2 (11,3:1,2=13,56) is equivalent to 2301 em. 1001 em more.:D
P.S.: I used nilou as an exemple because she has the highest bloom dps in the game. I know she already has a lot reaction bonus and there is a even higher diminishin return with her. with 1300 em baizhu buffs 13,7% more damage with blooms while nilou isn’t involved. with 0 em it’s even 100% dmg increase with his buff. but then again it just shows how much more viable and consistnat nahida’s c2 is on high em.
dendro Xingqiu? Burst shielding is weak, but constant, and it *is* a shield, so essentially stagger resistance. Dendro application essentially every second. Solid healing on top of that. I don’t understand how this is a bad character.
Only every 2.5 sec and only 1 target. If play him as dendro drive may provide a bit more dendro application but it is still big dmg loss and his buff is only increase 2-3.5k total dmg it is so useless.
Does anyone know if the effect from “All Things Are of the Earth” will also trigger even if the character has full HP? If not wouldn’t it be better to leave the talent on lvl 1 so that he heals not as much and the buff can trigger more often?
What the hell are you talking about? The effect only depends on Baizhu’s max HP
you might be right but also wrong because it doesnt matter really. his shield is as weak as thoma’s. so even if baizhu has lot of hp, it’s still very easy to break.
Yes, it does work.
Is Nilou superbloom increased by the bloom % from his passive?
yea
yes but it will just add to the already existing boost. The bonus part is the healing and intermittent shielding from self damage from blooms.
Yes but like someone mentioned it will add to the existing bloom boost from Nilou
so he only buff the reaction of the character he heal with his burst? e.g i have nahida on field and xingqiu off field to trigger bloom (with nilou of course), he will not buff the cores dmg because nahida is just an applier and xingqiu is the one who trigger the reaction?
The cores dmg will be buffed even with off-field Xingqiu, but only for 6sec and only if he was healed by Baizhu’s burst before. After 6 sec u need to switch again to Xingqiu and receive a healing to trigger this buff
Serves all the Alhaitham haters right. Now where did all ‘muhh waifus OP’ or ‘liyue bias’ go for Dehya and Baizhu? Enjoy your mediocre characters that you skipped Alhaitham for ???
skipping midhaitham for c2 Nahida :3
Pulling for C2 Nahida screams skill issue.
Oh no I’m the most skill issued player known to mankind!
pulling for every character screams skill issue, play with amber
me who want to use him for mono dendro team (Alhaitham, Nahida, Baizhu, Yae MIko) : interesting
yae miko crying in zero res shred
no need VV because there are too many dendros
im just saying [ Alhaitham , Nahida , Zhongli , Yae MIko ] is better , but you do you
if you wanna play Baizhu try [ Alhaitham , Baizhu , Fischl , Beidou C6 ] you might run in to ER problems on dendro units but you will have both res shreds , i would slap fav on baizhu if i had to
Why tf do you need electro shred when playing spread-focused team? If you saying Zhongli’s 20% elemental shred will be better than 40% spread & aggravate damage bonus you are fu*king wrong. lv90 Alhaitham with dendro dmg goblet, 500 EM + 250 EM from Nahida buff will only gain 5% damage increase from 20% elemental shred, in the other hand with 40% spread damage increase it will increase Alhaitham spread damage by around 13.68%. Moreover, with triple dendro setup you can reduce energy needs for each of member by a lot so you won’t bother with energy issues and can focus on more damage increase/utility stats (Crit/EM/HP) for those who need them
i disagree , assuming you run deepwood and dendro res shred is halved Zhongli is still +10% to all dendro dmg and +15% all electro dmg ( not just the reaction dmg )
res shred doesn’t lose value if you have too much of the other stats it only get halved if enemy resistance go negative when you have too much res shred
if the enemy have 20% res or more Zhongli is +20% all dmg of that element
if the enemy have 10% res Zhongli is +15% all dmg of that element
if the enemy have 0% res or less Zhongli is +10% all dmg of that element
https://old.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/qw1mwh/explain_resistance_shred_to_me/
Do you know the difference between damage increase and final resistance? All you pointing out is only the final resistance after Zhongli shred without showing the actual damage increase from it which anyone already knows how it works. And yes with deepwood memories, 95% of the enemy already have 0 resistance (only jadeplume and dendroshroom have more than 30% base dendro resistance) so damage increase from Zhongli res shred is negligible since the res shred is halved and the enemy resistance is already low enough.
idk about that but i do know that Zhongli’s shred is a party wide buff and has better up time and is definitely better for yae miko
You are running deepwood either way and with Nahida tri-karma purification you basically can shred enemies far away and have 100% uptime unlike Zhongli that have to always hug the enemy to gain res shred, and again why you insisting on buffing Yae with lower than 20% team damage contribution when running spread focused team. Just accept that generalists will always have less value than exclusive units unless they have Bennett/Kazuha-level, in this case, Zhongli is not that guy.
nvm i checked it
with deep wood res = -20 , res multiplier = 1+(0.2/2) = 1.1
deep wood + Zhongli = -40 , res multiplier = 1+(0.4/2) = 1.2
it’s 10% dmg increase not final resistance

me who plans to pull for baizhu just for alhaitham: what is this dude even talking about?
Just accept that no one cares about Al-Haytham – he’s just a regular dps-unit, without support options and the ability to play it off-field.
People skipped it not for the sake of Dehya and Baizhu, but for the sake of Yelan – which can be easily understood by the profit of banners. And everyone will do it again if Nahida / Yelan / Kazuha / / Raiden/ another good character lies in the next banner.
lol regular dps? He’s considered S tier and FYI Hu Tao’s first banner did significantly worse than his. Numbers skyrocketed only on her 1st rerun and afterwards.
Does he need to level up his attack talent for his intended role or is it fine to leave it low?
He isn’t an on-field unit, and he cannot attack off-field with his normal attacks. You do the rest of thinking.
What artifacts set(s) can I use for him?
Ocean Hued Clam and Deepwood Memories will be his most common artifact sets.
Nice April fool’s reply. Nailed it mate :thumbs up:
What do you mean April fool’s? What else con you equip him with?
Noblesse, Tenacity? I mean the ones you stated are correct in what will be quite common or a 2ps HP/2ps ER.
Baizhu wanters! My girl has a message to u and has me deliver it here!
“””
May all Baizhu wanters
not get the determination shaken by Baizhu haters
May all Baizhu wanters
get many early pities and multiple 5* in the 10 pull
And may all Baizhu wanters
become Baizhu havers
Kamisato Ayaka
“””
i have enough for a baizhu and that makes me happy
Wow……Nahida is rerunning before his release…..Hoyo legit is purposely sabotaging him at this point.
Actually it’s better this way. Nahida is an overpowered character so placing her after would make his sales fall since they would save for her.
If you have nobody special to pull for after, you’re more likely to give him a shot.
I dont get what the issue is… it’s just for people to anticipate for his debut and plus it gives us enough time to collect more primogems
I do not think that is the case, if someone gets Nilou or Nahida (or even both) from the first banners they will want to get him as he works pretty well with them
This is not sabotage, but salvation for him – otherwise people would skip him to get Nahida.
