Item Story
In the heart of Huitztlan lies the "Mountain King" Kongamato, a gargantuan creature like the mountains among which it sleeps. In moments of searing pain, in half-waking frenzies, the Mountain King sees everything as a mortal enemy, As if to prevent something from being stolen, it attacks all living things that approach without discrimination. People say that Kongamato, who once protected the tribes, was driven mad by that dark disaster, But they are never able to explain why the Mountain King, who ought not to be sentient, only attacks those who draw near. Indeed, its sanity was lost long ago, back when its sharp fangs pierced that person's flesh. Legends speak of the one who once made pacts with it, who hunted by its side, But no matter how precious these memories were, they have now been lost to the Mountain King's long nightmare, Even the name "Kongamato" itself has become unfamiliar to the ancient lord of the Yumkasaurs. Yet, even so— Even if it is unable to break free from the nightmare, it must at least protect the fire — though to whom it belongs, it knows not. Even if who that person was, or why such a promise was made, have long been forgotten. Even if the great body it was once so proud of continues to be wracked by burning agony, Even if its now decaying frame still bears the imprints of unbearable shame, Even so, it would never allow anyone to desecrate the life and fire that were once his. For the giant beast, now lost to madness, Despite its soul having been consumed by the filth of darkness, This final shred of resolve it refuses to abandon, no matter what. "I shall return the Turnfire name to the Night Realm, in exchange for the final kindling." "By past fuel, and present flame, life marches ever on." "We will answer to the fire for all our deeds. Amidst the flames, we shall be reunited." |

Is this weapon good for Diluc? of course with burning/burgeon team.
kinich is gonna go mine some diamonds with this weapon
item story when? (HOMDGCAT already has in CHS)
This weapon got a massive nerf from 33 Crit Ratio to 11 Crit Ratio, and a little less ATK.
Whoever Kinnich gets paired with in 5.0, don’t pull on the Weapon Wish Event.
The nerf its because the intended artifact set to use with Kinich gives you like 40 crit rate, they are balancing things, it would be too easy to build up the crit rate without the nerf
He’s paired with Raiden apparently, although this is all STC.
for a crit rate weapon on an atk scaler that gets a lot of crit rate from different sources this is not a nerf at all, rather a buff
That’s not a nerf, base atk and substats on weapons are inversely proportional
5* crit weapons look like this (the decimals may be slightly off):
44-542 base atk – 88.2 crit value
46-608 base atk – 66.2 crit value
48-674 base atk – 44.1 crit value
49-741 base atk – 22 crit value
the difference of 67 base atk on a character with multipliers of over 1000% atk is pretty big especially since he’ll struggle to keep Bennett’s buff
This is also the first weapon to have a 741 base atk and a crit substat
according to my (slightly scuffed because I’m not super experienced) calculations, the new change is a ~5-10% nerf to theoretical damage if you can convert all of the crit rate into more crit damage, but considering how with the old weapon + artifact set you would have a 78.1 crit rate by default, you’d basically be forced to only roll crit damage on all your pieces to not overcap and waste crit rate, which is nearly impossible. with the change you can be a lot more flexible with the pieces you use.
and even besides that, the weapon still looks to be a ~30% increase over the new craftable, and ~10/20% over R5/R1 serpent spine (without bennett, if you can keep his buff uptime it’s more like ~4/12%), which has a similar crit rate issue as the old signature
Having Clorinde I can say farming artifacts and avoiding CR rolls is annoying
Say you have 3 CR subs on the circlet and 1 on each other piece and that’s enough to cap crit rate for him with old sig
yeah, I agree the new change is probably better for almost every player. The main downside I can think of with this is that it makes the weapon less viable for characters with less base crit rate or who don’t care about base atk as much, if you’re HP scaling or aggravating for example.
i love when people that have no idea how the game works tries to comment on beta changes
are u st*pid ? 740 atk.
???
Too bad they haven’t used unique weapon animations since Arle, this thing would make an amazing switchaxe
Natlan would be the perfect region to just whole-ass turn Genshin into a Monster Hunter clone xD
this weapon is the first one after a lot of time which isn’t strictly tailored made to a chara
it seems it can work with everyone in burgeon-burning team, without any particular condition
and it seems also a very good alternative for dehya for example
And what about now? 💀
Seems that they want the weapon to be more “polyvalent” and i think this is good for the game, a weapon strictly binded to a char make it less attractive
shouldve been crit dmg since he already gets a lot of crit rate from obsidian codex artifact
