"Smol" corrections, thanks to a discord user who made me aware of a calculation mistake: For Jiyan:
Lustrous Razor: 417578, +51.8% in comparison to Broadblade#41
Broadblade#41: 275079
Sorry for that!
EDIT: Just to clarify, as you may or may not know I usually do publish all my sheets, however, in this case I cannot yet. There are actually multiple reasons on why, one of which I cannot disclose, one of which being that there WILL be changes between these calcs in this sheet and calcs in the future - characters change from the cbt2 to release, new best rotations are discovered and so on. If I spot a mistake I will correct it in this comment as I did with jiyan. The problem herein lies, that I have multiple calcs on many resonators in this sheet. I cannot guarantee these calcs wont all differ from the release version of the game and hence I want to provide an overview on what could be the case if nothing changes. If a character doesnt change much, this will MOSTLY be accurate if I didnt make a grave mistake such as with jiyan. If it's 37% or 36% it won't change too much, but 10%+ like in this case does. Though my reasoning didnt change. My entire reasoning isn't even based on the calcs, if you noticed, for this exact reason.
This is why providing sheets is essential, or else it's just trust me bro. Please provide sheets next time.
@@josephs.7960 You don't need sheets lil bro. git gud.
@@josephs.7960I agree! And that is why I usually do! If u have seen basically any of my other videos, you will notice this is one of two where I didn't and if you look into the descriptions of the video, I plan to add them when the game releases - for reasons I cannot just yet unfortunately.
Jianxin use the gauntlets too...
I know this question is redundant but I want the reassurance and yes I watched the entire video. I have Calcharo and Jiyan so broadblade then right? I won’t go for Jiyan signature weapon since I’m not rich lol
I don’t get why people say “if you choose this ur account is ruined” like…????????
yea mate its juss a game
Clickbait, what else? How else do u think cc's get views
Extremely poor clickbait
idk either, but I couldnt resist the urge to take the classic DONT RUIN YOUR ACCOUNT!!! and make it a "ruin your account" just to make fun of it - Though I gotta see how people react to it and if the parody isnt well received even though I literally explain it in the first 5 seconds, I will refrain from it in the future. Probably will do so anyway, I mean, the joke's over now lol
The number min-maxers when they realize it doesn't really matter cuz they can't dodge:
your channel has very quickly become my most favorite wuwa channel. every video is so high quality and your attitude is also very level headed. just good advice with no pressure to do this or that. really looking forward to whatever you put out post release!
Thank you so much 😀
Instant subscription! I love how you explain not just *what* you say, but *why*, and that makes all the difference!
I will choose the 5 star weapon depending on whether I get Jiyan or Yinlin.
I love your vids so much man. Within the minute, I already got my answer! Thanks so much! Keep up the great work!
really appreciate your help with these guides, thank youuu 💕💕
So glad i found your channel! Im so excited for wurthering and saw so many vids like that it had me worried 😅
loving your videos so far!
Amazing video as always!!
It's C because you don't like
I'M THE STORM THAT IS APPROACHING
Not only are you focusing heavily on actually teaching your viewers but that intro had me laughing out loud. I'm subscribed now
nice video :). I believe someone can only make a real decision after looking on what your account has at the time you can select the 5 star weapon. And after pulling on Yinlin banner if you want her. I hope you can keep up the great content on wuwa with your guides to the characters, teams and other things. Again really great video.
I've been TECHNICALLY AND MATHEMATICALLY waiting for a new vid, Thank you for the guide !!
That intro was fire! Nice video.
Really appreciate the insight, it's going to be hard to choose so we'll see if I can manage Yinlin's weapon or not
I have searched for the dps difference between 4 and 5 stars for so long tysm
been watching your vids for a while and i gotta say, you really stepped up with the editing quality on this one, keep up the great work! if i can offer just a little criticism, I'd suggest maybe changing the font on the thumbnails to a more uniform looking one so it matches the overall look of the video. Besides that, great content, great explanation and the most important thing: reminding people to have fun
Thanks, but all the credits to my new editor! Thanks for the suggestion!
Before watching the video:
Yeah I’m just gonna choose Rover’s so my MC has a decent weapon from go basically.
After watching video: yup still going sword
mid game spoilers:
Havoc MC is currently a top tier DPS so going for the sword is a good call
A 5 star quality guide maker indeed
this is what I wanted to see!
okay, honestly speaking - this thumbnail made me not want to watch your channel at all on first site, but I didn't realize it said "RUIN YOUR ACCOUNT" instead of the usual. Excellent work my guy that deserves a sub.
Though I think you have to be careful in the future cause it will make some people who are tired of stuff like that not want to see your videos to not click.
Like again I literally was not interested in even clicking because I have seen thumbnails like that so many times at the start of any gacha launch that I didn't even fully look to see that it was a parody.
I'm thinking to get Calcharo+Jiyan to cover more elements+love their design. As for the chars I like the most too are MC and Yangyang, so the dilemma is between the sword and the Broadsword lol! 😅 I might go for Jiyan's weapon if he comes early.
I think I'll need to play the game for a while before choosing as I'm not even sure who will be my main dps. Ling yian and Danjin caught my attention the most gameplay wise, but you never know how it really feels until you actually play them so yeah... Might need to wait.
Also very sad that i like Calcharo design the most but I didn't like his gameplay, but who knows.
Always choose this, choose that! After, you're gonna matier list from characters to echo?
The developers give us freedom and made all characters good. Now you just have choose on you like and master it, that's set!
Hard choice, but good to know there are a few good options.
Good video. I cant wait to main encore
Is it worth to pull for weapon banner if you already have main dps for 3 teams already? or just spend it for regular standard banner for dupes?
Very good tip that u can share weapons here in wuwa. Games like hi3 with similar end game memorial arena, cant share gears
Excellent video man love on you 🫶🏻
i have calcharo and jyan but dont have any good weapon for then, and im saving for yinlin, so the broadblade seems to be the best choice. the question is: it is worth to keep wasting standart pulls on character standart banner or pull on the standart weapon banner?
Is it better to pull standard character or standard weapon after done with Novice and selector? getting standard characters from losing 50/50 is inevitable, and so is pulling on weapon banner better???
Can't wait to reach yunyun level 45
I pulled the Emerald of Genesis on the weapon banner, should I get another sword on the selector? My main team is Danjin, Havoc MC, Verina. Thanks!
I was planning to get the sword anyway, because i will go for Yinlin and her weapon, and i will use Rover as a dps for early game. Glad to know the sword is actually good.
I just found your channel now! If you dont have a battle pass weapon list, would you evebtualy do it? I am a low spender, but if i enjoy the game i will probably buy the battle pass.
In the end let's see what rng will give us and go ahead after that
I got a 5 star weapon in like 20 pulls but I didn’t see this tier list so of course I chose the gauntlets 😔
Next question, if i get multiple copies of the 5* store from all the standard banner pulls we are going to get from playing the game.. is it better to have 2~3 swords for teams that have more than 1 sword user, or is it better to refine the sword?
I guess it depends on ur team, I plan on using danjin, rover and verina, so in my case having 2 sword chars might be a good option but then again rover can use a 4* well and total DMG won't skyrocket if he/she uses a 5* as he/she is just a sub dps but in case of danjin her DMG will increase significantly so it all depends on your teams and builds etc
The weapon banners and character banners are separate.
Also, you have 100% guarantee to get the featured 5* weapon on limited banners.
Also, on the standard weapon banner, you can choose which 5* standard weapon do you want.
Meaning... You will basically never get multiple copies of the same weapon, unless you WANT to.
Personally, at least at the start of the game, I will probably go for more characters rarther than weapons. And even when I start going for weapons... I don't think going for weapon dupes is really worth it as f2p, unless I plan on having multiple sword users on the team or something like that.
(I haven't done the maths, so take it with a grain of salt, but... Reading the skill descriptions on prydwen, I don't felel like an extra "superimposition" or two on the standard 5* weapons would be really that impactful. I think what makes them stand out from 4*s are their base stats, more so than the passive skills.)
Very well said
Please answer my question 🙏🏼
Is it possible to switch the weapons and echoes of our characters between each floor of the Tower of Adversity?
Since we need 3 teams because of the vigor, this would allow us to keep the best gear!
And theoretically, only 3 R5 weapons can be used for the 9 characters (if they share the same weapon types).
Yes
I like your content, thank you
Cool I was gonna get the sword anyway, but now I feel ✨️validated✨️
Came here from iwtl recommendation UwU
Instant sub!
Thanks!
do you still feel the same way about the broadblade after it got buffed?
That jiggle on Yinlin is absolutely crazy
banger vids cant lie
What about my girl Jianxin? is the gauntlet good for her?
First of all, chose the right server, I hope kuru games give us option to login same account in different servers with same saved data
I have both Jiyan sign and calcharo so Broadblade is good choice?
great vid love yeah content
Kinda guessed that sword was tue best, gonna take it for sanhua and rover
Yeah sword is the best, because there are many that use it.
Sword it is. Rover is the one MC I really want to main.
wondering if a route like:
Reroll for a starter
Roll beginner
Roll for sword from standard with leftover
and then pick to fill gaps
Is gonna be optimal or even viable?
i am gonna switch 2 and 3. just for the sake for giving a 5 star weapon to rover early in the game to do more damage. i just want to play the rover for story sake.
Doing something like another comment
Before watching: Im gonna pick gauntlet for lingyang
After : STILL GAUNTLET FOR MY BABY LINGYANG
lustrous razor is a dps increase on calcharo over broadblade 1, but i saw that autumntrace is his bis, even considering lustrous. is that no longer true?
Will cover that in my Calcharo Guide somewhen after launch
tbh Im a bit annoyed that kuro didnt just make every 5 star weapon in the selection have a crit substat.
Is Cosmic Ripples good for Verina?
Is that rectifier best for baizhi?
Master rivenous is it possible for a f2p day 1 player to save enough pulls for Yinlin and her signature stringmaster? I have hopes since the weapon banner is a guaranteed one
Well they say in the beta was possible to get 200+ tries, and to the garanted, losing 50/50 takes 160, so i guess u can tale her
Nice guide
But what about jiyan's signature weapon's calculations?
Uhh I prefer to not talk about that one yet but u can have a look into my discord if you feel like getting an idea why ^^
@@iamrivenous
Thanks.
I will.
Well i really don't care about meta and just want to play the Game but nice video 😀 man
You got yourself New Sub👍
I appreciate it!
gained a sub for turtle rave 😂😂😂
jk. i think i will take your word for the strings weapons.
03:04 design very doctor ratio. Approved
5:07 Taoqi?
5:13 Jianxin?
I guess you don't have numbers for these characters? Or maybe you don't consider them DPS?
Can we safely assume that their damage increase would be similar to the average damage increase? Or would one or both be higher or lower than the average you calculated?
Also, considering this video is aimed at people who want to complete as much of Tower as possible, isn't a major factor the characters best suited to the first Tower?
My thinking is that I want to clear as much of Tower as possible in the first cycle. Then, I will continue to build out my account. With that goal in mind, I would want to build characters that are best matched for the first Tower cycle, with the expectation that I'll build other characters later, as the Tower requirements change. Therefore, I would want weapons to support those characters. So, even if a weapon is best overall for my account, I may want to get this weapon later, if the characters I'm focused on building for the first cycle don't use this weapon.
I think I've suggested this before, but I'll suggest again. I'd like to see a recommended characters to collect/build if one is focused on clearing as much of Tower in the first cycle as possible.
If there are multiple sets of characters that would be well-suited to clearing Tower, a tierlist of teams to collect/build would be very interesting and useful. If I didn't like the top tier list of characters, I could select a lower tier with characters I do like. Then, I could select echoes and weapons to support these characters. (This could be a whole video series.)
Thanks for your comment! Baizhi is missing as well and Taoqi and Jianyin are both more supportive units and as I said in the video I have not included them, since, and that touches your next point, the most important part to clearing the Tower is a strong DPS. Sustain (Taoqi, "Verina" (lol), "Baizhi") is negligable because you can well, use the game mechanics and dodge and parry, and we only really have a hand ful of supports who handful of supports who don't scale at all with better weapons (well at least the ones I didnt mention, Verina, Baizhi for example).
Regarding your suggestion, my new editor is already sweating for all the videos coming up as am I, however I like the idea and will note it down and keep it in mind! Thanks a lot for the suggestion, I either have missed it the first time or simpyl forgotten (sry very busy currently!).
Idk about jianxin but taoqi is a def scaling character so the 5* weapon is not suited for her and the passive isn't so great that it overshadows the sub stat.... And yeah knowing which characters to pull and build would be amazing especially when u need 3 teams.
@@iamrivenousBut aren't the character's kits subject to change?So it's better to make a vid about that after release or u can do one before and one after release. And hopefully u make character guides as well, would really appreciate that. Cus ur probably my most trusted wuthering waves content creator.
@@Memedom6331 Guides are in the works, however in a order of where I am sure not much or anything will change!
Hmm... I'm still watching but I plan on making Yuanwu and Jianxin my mains of their own teams. So... I'll pick gauntlets. I'll keep watching to see if I can learn more.
Oh. Excuse me?! He's defense scaling? 😫 Fine...I'll make it work somehow. I love Lingyang. I'll go for him after I get Jianxin
I'm gonna be that Sanhua Maxxer
i dont like the fact that i have to move gear to do the end game content. they should just make it so we have to farm for each character i dont giving gears i farm for a character to another one
0:59 wouldnt that require a blind run and their own ability of doing research instead of watching your video?
IWTL brought me here...
Thank you for this! I didn't think about one weapon for multiple units! As I want to main calcharo, but also get Jiyan it now gives me a good idea what weapons to prioritize. I, too, despise videos with the same tired "don't ruin your account" I make it habit to skip those now because most of them have the same old tired information. If you've seen one, you've seen them all
I see Jianxin, i hit like
хорошее видео, спасибо
No Jianxin analysis?
please make calharo guide
jianxin is always left behind
The only correct answer is "Pick the pistol" because anyone reading this comment is actually maining Chixia.
i feel like its never worth to roll on weapon banners tho but maybe that's just me rather roll on characters unless you literally have every 4* standard char as f2p alrdy
we get a free 5 star wep selector afaik
@@earthlingx5267 leaks not official info do not count on it
These calcs should have inclueded the Battle Pass weapons as we get one also for free
The weapons from the free 4* selector are not the battle pass ones.
Oh yes... The old Genshin mindset of "pick X and ruin your account" has been laughed once again.
Thanks for the great info and explanation, as always
Came from iwintoloss
When is the Yinlin banner coming???
Part 2 of 1.0
I only hope I don't get the furry boy as a random from beginner banner >_
"ruin Ur account" wise words
What are the craftable weapons in the game?
All the weapons with a number:
Broadblade#41
Sword#18
Pistols#26
Gauntlets#21D
Rectifier#25
@@iamrivenous Thanks!!
I am f2p but I got all of them

Wait wheres jianxin
I'll ruin my account any way I choose, I will beat the game by shear skill and skill alone
Who is the red guy with cards? Is he playable?
I'll just do what I did with HSR's selector - wait until I have all of the other ones and pick the last one remaining. Done. Easy. You're welcome.
6:50 💀😭
Good video, but could you get rid of the 'subbing every single word as you say it' thing? It's really distracting.
i started getting recommended the "ruin account" things too and damn it's sad... people aren't capable of just enjoying things anymore, it's all about meta and efficiency to the point of making it feel like a job or chore instead of a game that's supposed to be fun to play.
Of course it's good to be aware of what's better and whatnot, but for example I'd rather choose a character I enjoy and will naturally get better at instead of the meta choice that'll likely be viable only at first because of gacha powercreep...

Comment for algo
Yrrrr
First!!
If you put click bait again i will unsub for sure
Well it's ur fault for falling for it...
@@Memedom6331 well you are right and i corrected my mistake i unsubbed👍👍
I am sad to hear that, however I think the videos content is high-quality enough to make up for it. Also note the quotationmarks in the thumbnail. However, I am open for feedback and have noted it down, thank you!
@@iamrivenousthat is one good answer, brother. It consists of good reasoning and the open minded and willingness to receive feedback to keep improving oneself. It seems to me that your answer reflects your videos, brother, which is: high quality
And so, I will subscribe to you and I hope to see you keep becoming better in every aspect of your life.
Just remember, brother: with every hardship, comes ease
Note: reading these words of mine again, I realize these sounds too corny and dramatic xD I hope you can tolerate it
@@akbarrr535 Much appreciated man! Also nah, they ain't that corny :D Yea I kinda just wanted to parody these kind of thumbnails, apparently that might or might not have backfired lol. First time is the last time I guess.
No, you've become what you hate the most. unsubbed.
But I thought he explained in the first few seconds about the thumbnail
