1. Bro does not disappoint, honestly. Aoe reliant, but that’s what it says on the packaging, Im fine with it. This abyss isn’t that great for him imo, too much ST/boss fights to make AOE-centric teams fun to use. Regardless, other testing in WL9 has been rewarding.

   Chasca/Nightsoul users make him so much more fun by removing the Electro-Charged reliance. Mavuika + Chevy + Ororon + Flex are gonna go HARD, I can tell.

   • Not too impressive from what I can see. EC is notoriously hard to consistently trigger, which is why Anemo units are the only units to build EM on most taser teams, since they can cheat by just abusing Swirl Spam.

     If you’re feeling insane you can try a team of 4 EM built units, but it wouldn’t expect much out of it unless it’s mob shredding teams in AOE content. Or Overworld.

     EM substats aren’t terrible, but Ororon is likely better off focusing on classic DPS stats.
     It’s Emilie all over again (except Emilie 100% hates EM lol).

       • Basically, Emilie is a unit that benefits from the presense of Burning but doesn’t actively want to build EM to increase Burning’s damage.

         Navia and Freminet are other examples of this pattern, for Crystallize and Shatter respectively.

7. can someone tell me where to find rational and proper information/speculation about him and electro charged? because to me, from this kit, he’s totally mid
   i don’t see anything “good”, properly speaking
   he’s not bad, but nothing that interesting also
   multipliersand base stats are quite low, and not everyone is prone to invest a 4star to lev 90 and talents 10
   constellations are decents but nothing special, and his c6 is not making him that better than before
   and i know everybody wants to compare him with fischl, but we know she came at the beginning with benney etc.
   and don’t tell me he can use cinder city, because that’s not him but the set
   so what does HE ACTUALLY provide so good to justify this statement?

   • “Why would anyone use Kazuha? And don’t tell me it’s because VV”
     “Why would anyone use Xilonen? And don’t tell me it’s because Cinder city”
     “Why would anyone use Nahida? And don’t tell me it’s because of off-field Dendro application”
     What an actual idiot lmao.

     • No way you’re genuinely using this as an argument.

       Both Kazhuha and Xilonen provide Elemental Res Shred, VV and Cinder City are just bonuses to what’s already there.
       Nahida’s whole thing IS her Dendro application and that in itself is pretty powerful.

       What does Ororon provide other than his own personal damage or the ability to use a nation-locked artifact set that should make him a “must pull”?

       I could think of a few – probably more if I knew things you can only learn from playing him – but OP’s question was very much reasonable.

     • “Why would anyone use Kazuha? And don’t tell me it’s because VV”
       Kit innately has massive DMG buff from Q and the strongest and convenient gather in the game.

       “Why would anyone use Xilonen? And don’t tell me it’s because Cinder City”
       Kit innately has massive resistance shred and massive single target healing.
       In fact in Mualani comps it is not consistent to activate the Cinder City buff for Mualani.

       “Why would anyone use Nahida? And don’t tell me it’s because of off-field Dendro application”
       As long as Nahida’s skill still works, Nahida does a ton of “AoE” damage, and that AoE damage has none of the circle impact disadvantage of use that AoE normally has. And the Q can give 250 EM.

       For someone calling someone an idiot, you don’t really seem to understand the game itself.

   • You put him in a team with hydro, he does electro charge and his own on-hit electro damage
     but wait there’s more, electro charge reactions get stronger this patch
     but wait there’s more, because “he can use cinder city” and electro reacts with literally every element in the game he can buff anyone.
     but wait there’s more, the hydro dps that have too much application to maintain vapes can use this 40% buff
     But wait there’s more, he can fly so he’s a 4-star Kazuha/Wanderer/Venti for exploration
     What an actual idiot lmao

       • You made a perfectly reasonable statement and asked about opinions. Nothing wrong with that. Sneed feed seems to have broken up with the only friend he had and decided to let it out on you. Now we know why he has no friends.

   • Attempting a more level-headed response here:

     He’s OK. Great at C6 I would say, but not a gamebreaker unless his Hypersense damage contribution surprises me. Or maybe if a EC Chevy/Nilou comes out to fill out the EC niche alongside him.

     Cinder City is a plus, even if it’s not a part of his base kit, it IS a highly synergistic set for him. Same way Kazuha loves VV and Xilonen loves Cinder as well. While on the topic of CCity set and Xilonen, there is a clear conflict between Xilonen and Ororon since the set can’t stack, but IMO Taser teams are more Kazuha/Anemo friendly due to double swirl tactics, so it’s not the end of the world if they happen to have that set in common.

     Damage is fine, considering he is clearly skewed towards AOE. Can hit up to 4 opponents per Hypersense proc, Burst has OK Aoe damage with a Lynette-tier Taunt (this is a good thing, Long Duration + Indestructible). Taunts are underrated too, it’s a good source of defense for easily staggered units like Wanderer, Bows, etc, assuming Shields and Freeze tactics aren’t options. It also crowds enemies as an alternative to usual CC methods, which is really good for Consecrated Beasts and the like.

     I feel like an EC Buffer unit would help a lot, since there’s an untapped well of free AOE damage via EC that isn’t being fully utilized by anyone besides Anemo units. I digress tho.

     He’s also got energy regen for himself and on-fielders, so that’s nice too. Note that this particular passive isn’t restricted to elements, any elemental on-fielder can use it.

     C6 (obviously not everyone will have) is an 30% ATK buff for on-fielders with some added frontloaded damage on burst cast (souped up Hypersense, so it’s AOE). A shame this doesn’t buff HP scalers, but I guess they don’t need the help anyways. Future Iansan support maybe?

     And of course there’s his weirdly cool Synergy design. Like yeah EC is his bread and butter, but he also just likes Natlan users, who can also trigger his Hypersense. Likely meant for Chasca and future units since Mualani is anti Synergy and Kinich is kinda awkward.

     I think he’s Good/Great, a solid A tier 4*, maybe High B if you’re being super critical. He’s coming out far better than Kachina. As much as I like her, *that* is a character who is entirely carried by an artifact set. Ororon can at least try to do other stuff.

     I do hope this explains why people are kinda excited.

8. Oh, if only Ororon was a five star. He’s his tribe’s hero for Pete’s sake, and he’s apparently pretty popular among even CN players. But no, the drunk grandma is the five star instead. Is it bad that a part of me hopes that CN’s alleged attempt to convince Hoyo to make him a five star is successful?

   • The real question is “Why is he the hero and not the amazing Citlali ?” The aphid lover isn’t even the main element of his tribe. He is the only one in that case, all five others are. Citlali matched both as Cryo char and 5* char. But no, the aphid lover is the hero instead.

     (No offense, I like Ororon as well xD)

     • By that logic, shouldn’t Chasca also be a four star? The Flower Feather Clan’s primary element is Pyro, if the Saurian is anything to go off of.

   • Do remember that character rarity doesn’t reflect their lore importance most of the time. For example, Ningguang is the Tianquan of the Liyue Qixing, meaning that she holds a very important power across the nation. And yet, she is a 4*.

9. hear me out guys-

   Ororon is a pretty big buff to Yae Miko. from what we can gather from his kit descriptions, the on fielder has to deal electro or hydro damage to get energy from Ororon’s passive, and active characters have to deal hydro or electro damage to build nightsoul points, 5 at a time, on Ororon. Rroron will initially have 40 because of nightsoul burst.

   So, since Yae’s uptime on field is pretty long for off field dps, she’d generally gain energy from Ororon. she can also deal electro damage on field with her NAs to build nightsoul points on Ororon.

   Yae also is known to miss her burst nukes at times, so Ororon’s taunt can crowd enemies around his taunt so Yae’s burst won’t miss.

   Outside Furina, Kazuha, and Xilonen, there went many ways to buff her off field dps. Cinder City set on Ororon compensates and give her 40% dmg bonus.

   Yae double dips into EM. with the electro charged buff alongside that of transformative reactions, Yae’s personal and electrocharged damage should be pretty solid.

   Yae’s personal damage should be really good here. Yae has AoE Fischl doesn’t have, and electrocharged from Yae gives more free damage.

   last two characters would be a mix of Kokomi, Kazuha, Childe, Xilonen, Jean, Ayato, or maybe Sigewinne. Maybe even Furina + Xilonen and on-field Yae Miko.

10. Took a hiatus from 4.3 to the start of 4.6, and now considering taking another one for the rest of 5.1.
    If Ororon isn’t on Chasca’s banner, and is instead pitched onto Phase 2 reruns that I don’t care about, that’ll be my queue to take that break. Would be great to get his C6 on Chasca’s in one go, but knowing Hoyo… “You want Chasca and Ororon both? Well… see: You can have just Chasca for now, and we’ll put Ororon on these two Phase 2 5* rerun banner characters that you keep skipping every time. We’ll probably also finally throw Heizou in there as a bonus just so you’d be forcing yourself to keep him at C0 since 2.8 yet again, loser.”

    Yep. Yep. Lemme prep up. Might be time to burn Primos to Lv. 50 BP for the second time ever again and then dip out until 5.2. Might even just pull Chasca and then leave until whenever anyway.

    • I guess it’s possible, but historically if a version has a single new 4-star and a single new 5-star, they tend to get released in the same phase. Here’s some data starting with version 3.0:

      4-stars that came in the same phase as a new 5-star:
      Tighnari and Collei
      Faruzan and Wanderer
      Yaoyao and Alhaitham
      Kaveh and Baizhu
      Charlotte and Furina
      Sethos came out with Clorinde. I’m choosing to not treat Sigewinne as a real 5-star character.

      4-stars that came in the other phase:
      Layla and Nahida
      Dehya and Mika (lol if you even want to count them)

      Odd scenarios:
      Xianyun’s banner had new 4-stars in both phases: Gaming with her, and Chevreuse with Raiden. I would count this as a win for players.
      When Candace came out, there were new 5-stars in both phases. I do not know whether she made more sense with Cyno or with Nilou.

      • Chevreuse came out patch before Gaming, and was not on Navia’s banner. Navia being the only new 5 star.
