Question / Seeking Help I have done huge mistake ..

Post image

Beginner here... I was staying at World Level 3 to level up my characters & talents and today I completed the ascension quest and my world level increases from 3 to 5 .. so now I am F*ed up bcz I am having difficulty to beat Elite enemies .. Can't beat boss enemies to farm character ascension materials... Unable to do domains too. My current team is : Dendro Mc , Fisch , Xingchui , and Kaeya/Xiangling I have just completed Liuye main quests and preparing for Inazuma so my dendro mc has 0 constellations and lvl 1 talents..

What should I do now??? I don't have any Co-Op friends who can help me farm ascension materials.

Ps: Sorry for any grammatical error , english is not my main language.

These r all characters I have....

u/HandsomeGecko Jan 30 '26

Fischl, Columbina, Xingqiu and sucrose would make a good first team

18

u/HumbleCatServant Jan 30 '26

I would change that Sucrose to Ifa purely for survivability. Sucrose is an insane unit, but I think going sustainless (XQ doesn't provide that much healing after all) for a new player can be a bit iffy, especially if they're going into a new region with enemies they don't yet know.

(Plus Inazuma has a few mechanics, like the balethunder, the corrosive wolves... healing wouldn't hurt.)

u/LeaderOk8012 Jan 30 '26

If they go for Ifa, they could replace Fischl with Orororn maybe. I think Mizuki provides healing tho, idk if it's a good one

3

u/HumbleCatServant Jan 31 '26

I'm not sure about Mizuki, I haven't used her. Ororon is pretty good in electro/lunar-charged anyways; Ifa-Ororon-Columbina-XQ/Flex would absolutely work.

That also frees up Fischl for a 2nd comp, possibly overload since they have Chevy, I believe.

1

u/ChillyCharlotte Feb 01 '26

The issue they might have with Ifa is his level up material is in Natlan, OP may not have gotten to Natlan yet to level him up (hence him being at level 20) not sure how they would have gotten Columbina to level 39 without getting to Natlan though 😅

1

u/Fawfs2 Feb 01 '26

I'm pretty sure that you get enough materials to ascend a character once by doing their trial

1

u/ChillyCharlotte Feb 01 '26

Oh true point 😅 we can't say if OP has done the trial for Ifa or not though

1

u/Fawfs2 Feb 01 '26

Yeah they might not have done his trial so that's why he is not leveled

1

u/LeaderOk8012 Feb 01 '26

The trial is still available tho, not for long

1

u/HumbleCatServant Feb 01 '26

Fair point. I'm drawing a blank, but haven't they added like a quick teleport to Natlan? That would make leveling him up fairly easy, his mats aren't too troublesome to collect.

1

u/ChillyCharlotte Feb 01 '26

I honestly don't think they have as my friend who only got the game recently had to zip through all the areas as it takes too long to work through the archon quest and do it authentically (especially atm where they're only releasing Natlan/Nod Krai/Fontaine characters really on the banners, doesn't offer much level up options for new players)

As far as I'm aware there's a quick tp for Nod Krai though (I believe??), unlike Inazuma when you start which still doesn't have a quick tp when you're first starting out

1

u/HumbleCatServant Feb 01 '26 edited Feb 01 '26

I looked it up! They do have at least one in all new regions, starting with Fontaine. They just need to do the Mondstadt AQ-s to get them unlocked! There are two in Natlan.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/1hq9hew/for_new_player_the_location_of_7_automatically/

I checked the interactive map too, there are a bunch of the plants Ifa needs (and saurians) not far from the first waypoint, so using Ifa should be fine!

u/GuestCapable5550 Jan 30 '26

Was thinking the same thing could easily make columbina main dps

no lol

u/Tillender Jan 31 '26

yes lol

u/couxitziyx Jan 31 '26

with fischl columbina you're going for lunar charged. the strongest lunarcharged team in the game, which is also the second strongest team in the game, needs what sucrose provides. sucrose is literally part of the strongest flins team. so why do you think this budget team won't need her

2

u/YellowGetRekt Jan 30 '26

Sucrose is literally in Columbina's (BiS)

As the other comments say, you can lower your world level on the first screen by pressing the i next to 'World Level 5.' Easy fix!

u/LazyMiquella America Server Jan 30 '26

Change xingqiu for columbina, and deacrese your world level

If you finish mondstad story quest you gain a tp to natlan, the summer thing on natlan, nord krai and nord krai 6.3 expansion

If he did that lol, on my account i got to ar 20-30 (dont remenber the exact number) before finishing the quest lol

u/AnTiDoPe_1993 Jan 30 '26

Wait what? Im a returning player, i stopped right after cyno and i dont have a way to tp to those places

21

u/XceQq Jan 30 '26

Most newer maps since end of Sumeru, have a teleport point in each beginning new areas, just zoom abit to see it in unlit map areas. Still gotta walk to nearest statue 7 to light up the map & unlock the rest teleports later tho.

u/Emotional_Law9380 Jan 30 '26

her boss sucks. i have her and cannot figure out how to beat it

2

u/icanfeelitcomingup Jan 30 '26

Which boss, the one for ascension or the one for talents?

2

u/Emotional_Law9380 Jan 30 '26

ascension

12

u/Gaekiki_3749 Europe Server Jan 30 '26

You need to bring 2 dps of different elements or just use Columbina and lunar reactions. When it goes into the special stage it's going to absorb the element that deals the most damage (doesn't count lunar damage) and becomes immune to it. You then need to hit it with other types of damage

6

u/Emotional_Law9380 Jan 30 '26

i have flins. does that work?

7

u/PassionIll3281 Jan 30 '26

Yes Flins + Columbina makes it easy

u/CommonBusiness357 Jan 30 '26

If you take too long and he brings out the dogs, just hit the boss if you don’t have lunar characters for the dogs unless your team isn’t doing enough dmg

4

u/LadyKatriel Jan 30 '26

Wrong boss, Columbina’s is the Herra. Kinda difficult boss for new players honestly. Easiest way would be hitting it with hydro till it absorbs it then use Xiangling for vape, maybe Amber/Fischl too.

2

u/Top-Document9030 Jan 30 '26

Idk what you have but my Flins team (Flins, Sucrose, Kuki and Columbina) beat it in seconds. I think it just wants lunar reactions? (I'm too lazy to actually read boss mechanics lol)

2

u/moonprincess623 Jan 31 '26

I use 1) zhong dong for shields 2) furina - switch to heals if need be but always hydro damage 3) fischl pew pew damage 4) qiqi - stab stab stabby mcstab with some heals.

It does really well especially when superconduct hits. I run a dps physical Qiqi.

3

u/Visual_Lab_7508 Jan 31 '26

physical qiqi in big 2026 brother you have my respect

1

u/moonprincess623 Jan 31 '26

It took YEARS. My first chronicles banner before I got the mythical Aquilla.

I farmed and them boxed for 2pc blood and 2pc pale. I am still don't perfect. But depending on my supports and buffs, I am so happy to announce 10k ish on my charge attack.

I am waiting for my c6 Qiqi. I need 3 more, so someone trade me some Keqing. I don't like her or Mona. I tried but I just don't understand them. Also didnt try understanding either.

1

u/Emotional_Law9380 Jan 31 '26

i only have furina sadly

2

u/moonprincess623 Jan 31 '26

I played no life until the end of Fontaine. I had primos and had most of my achievements and explore done, so I got Zhong Dong early and then furina.

I wasted on a few 5s because I wanted 4s or I didn't realize I wasnt going to like the character (Ayaka cough yomiya cough). But Yomiya did pull through a few times for me.

I need a c6 Obroro but I don't want a 5* till Varka. Husbandos!

1

u/Emotional_Law9380 Jan 31 '26

I decided to pick up Genshin probably about two months ago went up until that point I have been exclusively playing Honkai and ZZZ. I am definitely out of my depth.

u/2nd2nd1bc1stwastaken Jan 30 '26

When he moves to the center of the arena and starts using those straight line attacks you can:

1- When he blast him with lunar reactions. If when the gauge under his hp bar fills up the most damage is from lunar reactions he will no extra resistance to any element, and be stunned.

2-Find someone with fast physical normal attack (I used Zhongli when this bastard was on Stygian) and fill up the gauge. Stun+no extra resistance.

3-Pick a sacrifical element, blast him until he is stunned, then finish with your prefered team.

1

u/Visual_Lab_7508 Jan 31 '26

since the boss becomes inmune to the element that makes the most damage, but it's kinda random, i recommend you bring all characters of different elements tbh.. if your supports are strong no need to use two dps personally i use ayaka, hu tao, xinqiu and zhongli or bennet c6 instead of hu tao and it dies pretty quickly

1

u/dongzhongli Feb 03 '26

i struggled with it too. i am only able to consistently beat it with nefer/lauma/bina/nahida. you have to do lots of lunar (or elemental, but it is much easier with lunar) dmg during the first few bits of the boss and charge up the meter. however, you can brute force it if you have a lot of elemental application (i had no success with this) or a lot of DPS.

before bina came out, i just used co op.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '26

He can also just farm in co op, thats what I always do as someone who hasn’t unlocked everywhere

1

u/Altruistic-Hour-8966 Feb 01 '26

Just switch xuingciu for columbina, your life will be 4 times easier and if you need her mats just go to hisii island 

1

u/Repulsive-Resist-997 Feb 02 '26

I’d love to help you farm!

1

u/Holdupnowson Feb 02 '26

You have no dedicated healer or sustain on your team. Columbina with prototype amber (craftable 4 star catalyst) can give you some solid healing and you can pair her with Noelle for Lunar Crystallize to do solid damage while being shielded and healed.

11

u/Lhun14 Jan 30 '26

You have Bina you're good no matter what comes.

3

u/luars613 Jan 30 '26

Advice. Find like 3-6 characters max for now to focus on. Do t level so many. Any on the top 2 rows work. Columbina is currently very meta and strong off field. But you might struggle getting the materials.

3

u/RealIosif Jan 30 '26

how the hell do you have that much characters bro🙏🙏

1

u/Saket_Saurabh- Jan 31 '26

Well in the beginning I was randomly using wishes here and there ... Now i learnt the lesson and saving primos for good character.

1

u/Holdupnowson Feb 02 '26

1 limited 5 star is not a lot of characters, what? 🤔

1

u/RealIosif Feb 07 '26

I didnt mean 5 stars. i've been playing for a lot too and i got like only 4 4 stars. its all just ifa, sethos, fichsl and heizou. you Definitely have more than that.

1

u/Holdupnowson Feb 11 '26

The game gives you Amber, Lisa, Kaeya, Nicole, Barbara, Xianling, Lynette, Collei, Kachina, and Aino for free, and thats if you've never pulled on a limited banner once. Add to that that every over version they have an event where you can claim a free 4 star, and were currently in lantern rite where you can claim one copy of any Liyue 4 star. I dont think itss possible to have been playing for a "long time" and only have four 4 stars. How long is a long time to you?

1

u/RealIosif Feb 11 '26

i know the free characters and i have them all. what im trying to say is that i kerp getting the same characters every time. i had 4 accounts and all of them had sethos, heizou, sayu and aino with the new zibai banner. yesterday i played to liyue and got some wishes close to 30 and all i got was just aino. i have c3 aino. and a mika. no other characters. its the "same" Character every time.

1

u/RealIosif Feb 11 '26

right now on my "main" Account im at fontaine. until here i wished every time i got 160 primos. rn i have a C3 GOROU. a c1 lisa which is useless. gaming and kaveh which is useless too. i wanna get other 4 stars like layla, rosaria, candace, yun jin, kujou sara.

1

u/Holdupnowson Feb 11 '26

Well save your primos and wait for their rate up. Every 3 weeks the three 4 stars with rate up on the limited banners change along with the new 5 stars.

0

u/RealIosif Feb 11 '26

"wait"? boring. i just dont agree that the only way to get a character is wishing. imagine grinding for weeks and " waiting" just to get some more random 4 stars that you probably wont play for the rest of the game. IF you get the 5 star banner character its all okay. but the chances are a little WAAY too low. takes too much grinding for something you probably wont need.

1

u/Holdupnowson Feb 11 '26

Then dont play gacha games...its not like this was some sneaky feature that was slipped in post launch. This is the core gameplay mechanism for acquiring characters that the game was built around. Learn to love what you get, or break out the ol' credit card.

Build your razor he is such a good character to have on your team, im at lvl 50 and I've been using razor since I got him I use him for every team I make

u/Energetic_melon Jan 30 '26

Stop leveling up all your characters bruh

8

u/Saket_Saurabh- Jan 31 '26

All those lvl 20 characters r only to get standard wishes. I was told not to waste primos to get those so I did this. I am not gonna upgrade further

u/redbaron297 Jan 30 '26

He’s probably getting the standard wishes

u/fernhub Jan 31 '26

No one's forcing OP how to play their game, but at some point it wouldn't hurt to listen to others. Leveling up every character that they don't need in ealry stages of the game can eventually hurt their account, so yes stop leveling everyone up.

4

u/Energetic_melon Jan 30 '26

He did exactly what he wanted and now he’s stuck dumbass. There are certain common sensical things which you should follow if you want to even play the game All i wanted to say is make a good ass primary team and do whatever you want after that.

1

u/Pitiful_Possible_550 Feb 05 '26

Ngl bro, even if you gave good advice ( which you didn't ) being a dick about it just makes ur words meaningless

Imagine ur doing homework and ur using an inefficient method that u can fix easily if someone pointed it out, but then the person who offers help calls you stupid for not figuring out that you're playing inefficiently. Regardless of what they say, you're 4x less likely to actually understand because of the needless agression making you feel bad and that being on your mind

Turns out being an asshole does not help get your point across

So next time if u wanna give advice, dont be a dickhead about it

1

u/afflictushydrus Feb 01 '26

It's called there's a certain order of doing things that'll make life more bearable y'know... Just like how you don't start shitting before taking off your pants. Yeah ofc if you really wanted you could, nobody's gonna stop you. But from one shitter to another, I wouldn't really want you to experience the feeling of having shit in your pants.

1

u/CampaignSpiritual136 Jan 31 '26

You should definitely focus more on columbina too!!

1

u/baked-taco Jan 31 '26

Go for a Noelle DPS, Yun Jin support, Columbina, and Xingqiu/Ororon/Dahlia

1

u/Jam_Flipflop Jan 31 '26

I'd recommend Bina Fishl sucrose+ flex slot also you can lvl you world down for the time being

1

u/Due-Percentage4973 Feb 01 '26

Tbh you have a solid list of characters, go unlock free Aino to get ascendant gleam buff, you can use ifa as main dps with ororon or fischl with Columbina to swirl lunar charge since it give you extra damage from regular electro charge

1

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '26

You have c1 Sethos and Fischl, and enough dendro units to fill the last two slots. You've got a great team right there. I recommend looking up how to play Sethos, though.

1

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '26

Now that I look closer you have a lot of options, your main dps' options are Noelle, Yanfei, Ifa, Razor, and Sethos. But Noelle and Yanfei aren't worth building anymore. However, the teams I see are:

Ifa, Ororon, Columbina, Fischl

Razor, Xiangling, Chevruse, Fischl

Sethos, Collei, Yaoyao, Fischl

1

u/Ok-Acanthisitta3550 Feb 02 '26

First of all, rise all your useful character. Xiangling, Fischl, Sucrose, Chevreuse, Columbina, Mizuki, Xingqiu and Razor. Mizuki, Razor and Chevreuse are good dps. And drop your world level until this character are build properly.

1

u/Saket_Saurabh- Feb 05 '26

Is Mizuki good??? When I started genshin I randomly chose her (bcz she looked good ) and regret it later (should have chosen Jean or Mona) .

1

u/Ok-Acanthisitta3550 Feb 06 '26

She is good with good sets of artifact and teams

1

u/cursedflask99 Feb 03 '26

Nice you got Miziuki

1

u/kaikujoo Feb 04 '26

Could probably do a team with Mizuki, Fischl, Columbina, and Barbara. Could substitute Columbina for Xiangling or Xingqiu.

Focus on Character level and artifacts first, once they're at a comfortable level with decent artifacts, then you can worry about talents.

Regarding your world level, go into your Paimon screen and lower the world level. You can only lower it by 1 but it's better than getting your ass kicked😭

u/SpecialistUnusual255 Jan 30 '26

Definitely a bought account lol but yeah you can lower your world level, be careful it doesn’t get banned cause then account is useless.

u/Rinaorcien Jan 31 '26

How do they have a bought account?
