I don’t care what people saying, since I need a fresh air after using Amos for a long time, I’ll build this bow for Ganyu since it has beautiful design.
I’m Ganyu Main after all.
Also, it’s great for melt attack.
It is the best bow for freeze Ganyu, while being a close second for melt Ganyu
Is it good on yoimiya ?
no
Why does this bow look so damn tiny when equipped on a character…
Is this bow good on a more damage oriented Sara?
garbage bow
no, you are wrong 🙂
how cute it is when some TP users are trying to explain that TP is better than PS just because they don’t have PS and feel jealous
Funny how most people i’ve seen saying Polar is trash on Childe/TP is better than Polar happen to be people that pulled for TP… Weird coincidence right ? Kek
Both are good, and they both are good on Childe. Anyone saying Polar Star is trash either doesn’t understand basic math or is objectively absolute trash at Genshin. I mean you literally have to be an absolute bumbling idiot to think this weapon would be bad on melee Childe. Ive tested it against a friend who pulled for a TP and the numbers are fairly close.
Yeah, both are extremely good (i wasn’t trying to say TP is bad or anything, in case my comment seemed that way.) The complaint i hear the most is that Polar is only a few percents better than TP, but TP was also only a few percents better than Harp… I don’t understand why some TP users are salty when TP isn’t that far behind Polar anyway. Even if Polar is overall BiS, TP can outdamage it in certain circumstances. Although they’ll need to wait for a delusion skin for TP to beat Polar in drip.
maybe its garbage because you didn’t get it lol
Is this better than r5 crescent? talking about ganyu btw
due to the difference in gameplay for ganyu and the actually intended character… no it,s not better than crescent for ganyu. I tested it
People don’t read the item story and still think it is a Ganyu bow.
How come this is Childe’s signature weapon, but it needs inazuman materials to upgrade? What kind of dumb logic is that?
what did you expect? snezhnayan materials??? childe already uses a liyue speciality to ascend and mondstadt talent books whats so odd about this lol
hahaha you nailed it man
And you see snezhnaya on the map?
No, but i see a character FROM SNEZHNAYA, his name is CHILDE btw in case you don’t know, he doesn’t hail from any of the regions currently in the game, he has a signature bow that uses materials from a region he has NOTHING to do with.
Don’t blame me because MIHOYO are clueless d*cks.
Your name suits you
then what you want, huh? you want them release snezhnaya ma first so we can get snezhnaya material?? or you want to wait for 4 years till we can get childe’s signature weapon?? you just want to hate mihoyo
Man ur actually a dumbass go ahead continue ranting no one cares not like mihoyo has very good interest in ramters like you complaining about everything like a little 9 year old kid
You’re asking why the signature weapon for a character from Snezhnaya, who uses Mondstadt talent books and Liyue ascension materials, takes Inazuma materials to upgrade?
Mr worldwide am I right
Hell yeah
You absolute potato
Whyyyy Memory of Dust, our expections were as low as Vortex Vanquisher and they still managed to disappoint us somehow. Still gonna pull because i really want Childe’s signature bow but holy shit…
Does anyone have a guess on whether R1 of this bow can do more dmg than a R5 rust bow ? Thanks in advance.
It does more damage than R5 Rust for sure
not sure if thundering pulse is actually better than this bow but even then its probably only slightly better. also what? crit rate is less powerful than crit dmg? what are you smoking bro. crit rate always comes first compared to crit dmg. without crit rate, your crit dmg is useless.
not to mention the 1:2 ratio for optimal dmg output.
TP is better against solo target since your normal/charge atk is main source of dmg. PS is better against group of enemies since it boost your riptide and elemental skill/burst dmg. Also your normal/charge atk also benefit from %atk, so i not gonna fall behind too much
Polar Star kills Regisvine faster than Thundering Pulse.
Dude just do some real and honest research
No wonder they gave hilichurl icons to commentors here
Top comment on this forum lmao
Finally, they changed the name of the stack. Ashen Nightstar is much better than Byakuya Kyousei!
I liked Byakuya Kyousei tbh seeing it basically meant midnight sun, but Ashen Nightstar is OK too I guess.
Kinda miss Iram Et Fatui though… or Wrath and Folly
In Chinese it’s Bringer of Perpetual Day (极昼的先兆者) but who knows, might change again before it drops.
I do not have a single 5 star bow. I want this weapon.
Should I refine this for a Cont 6 Amber instead of Amos bow?
Elemental burst hit on opponent grants you 1 stack, meaning that you will not get max stacks on using your burst, becouse it needs to hit first. And it gives you elemental burst damage bonus. I am dead laughing rn. Great design.
Well see how Tartaglia playing then come here and say what you like
Simply this bow created for him so its easy to use this bow on him
Hot take inbred mongoloid. Go back to school and crunch some numbers.
Bruh, im not saying its bad, iam saying you are not able to use its full potential. And i want to say its not BiS for childe. First – you need more time to activate all stacks, second – you get a bit less stats than pulse, third – bennet is less effective with this bow since u get a lot of atk and no dmg% bonus, and the last – crit rate bonus is less powerful than crit damage bonus (my opinion). Inhale your copium, roll for it cus it looks better and regret it when better 5* burst bow will be released (someday). Only hot takes here
It is Childe’s BiS lmfao, not by much sure, but it is, deal with it. Let me guess, you’re salty because you pulled TP/Harp ?
BiS for damage per screenshots. Other than that, it’s not that good
@Childe It is Childe’s BiS for general use, what are you talking about ? On the contrary, Thundering Pulse is better for damage screenshots because of the Crit dmg mainstat
Pulse would also require you to use burst since you need to be under 100% energy, then again this bow prefers a fireworks comp since you just burst off cooldown / at the start.
Pulse also has no bonus damage on charged attacks which is a big part of Childe’s personal damage this bow in theory would give you a bigger number on those.
The 12% elemental damage bonus would buff AoE damage since it buffs riptide but you’re right about the bennett part, but the general attack buff of polar star that affects every part of his kit instead of just normal attacks would balance them out.
The difference between Polar Star and Thundering Pulse is almost nonexistent if you just swap crit rate and damage circlets depending on the weapons.
So they are both the same?
Garbage bow
Whaaaaaaaaaat you can’t say this. This bow is amazing.
Mabye you are tired to read or understand it))) it is hard to understand the stacks?)))
I think you like simple things like stringless boost Elemental skill and burst)
Don’t say garbage to something amazing because you don’t use it
Oh? There’s actually someone who disagrees with you? Sarcasm aside, maybe you’re the one who can’t read. This bow is hardly complicated to use. It’s pretty much unga bunga and get max dps. I, however, would not consider it particularly good, since the dps increase compared to already existing bows isn’t much.
Of course the stacks are hard to understand, because most of the “””mathematicians””” in here can only count to 2.
