you know... i don't think i'm gonna start the fontaine archon quest right away. i'm probably gonna skirt around and just trek through the wilds of fontaine first before doing anything else
#⇢₊˚⊹ 🩷∥ruby∥yo,ide yo !!#i'm also finally gonna employ that strategy that murderofbirds did when he explored liyue#which is to light one area of the map at a time. and only light up the next area when you've gotten 100% exploration in the previous area#lighting everything up in mondstadt all at once feels manageable because it's still a fairly small area#but liyue and anything bigger is just... yeah#i started playing when sumeru was already released. and i just wanted to see all the beautiful sights#so i lit up pretty much the entirety of mondstadt liyue and sumeru within my first two weeks of playing#yes,even with my baby stamina bar and no kazuha#yes it was a struggle. but it was worth it honestly#it also made progressing through the archon quests easier for me#since the waypoints were already lit up and i wasn't forced to progress entirely on foot#also. it might actually be a blessing that my characters aren't crazy strong yet#this way i still don't feel like the combat is “too easy”. like yeah hilichurls and shit are small fry for sure. but there's still enemies-#-that i struggle to beat#i feel like i'm very slightly below the right amount of strong for maximum enjoyment of this game#i'm pretty satisfied with my other main dps's being “strong enough” in my own eyes#my cyno doesn't need to kill the shogun in 5 seconds for example#he just needs to be strong enough for bosses to feel satisfying to fight and not a struggle#i mean he already makes andrius feel like an overgrown mitachurl so he's not too far off#still gonna turn chong into a goddamn beast tho; that goes without saying#besides,this way i don't have to bend over backwards for literally everyone's artifacts#i can focus solely on turning chongyun into the cryo archon#this is also the first time i'm only pulling on the weapon banner and not pulling on the character banner at all#(on main anyway. on the alt i'm pulling on both and it's not the most ideal situation)#i'm not particularly hurting to have yelan rn. and if i'm getting lyney it'll probably be on my alt since it's pretty much pyro central#and to me he's more of a “sure it'd be fun if i had him cuz he seems like a pretty cool dude” than a “holy shit i need to pull him NOW”#so i don't really need to get him from his debut banner. i can get him in his reruns#and i don't really mind the possibility of never getting him because honestly,i probably wouldn't be able to do him justice build-wise#the longer i play this game without it,the less valuable welkin becomes#i already don't want that many characters so yeah. at some point all it'll do for me is make resin refreshes cheaper
