It is like the first character where i say yo he is worth it and i am fine with 1 heizou and no cons so i have wishes for Sumero chars and i get all the other chars, weapons and a mona. Everything but not heizou. I have literally everything prefarmed for him. Not like i had for all the other chars. Now i am just scared that if i continune pulling that i get no heizou but a kazuha so i dont have Tighnari save.
Pet theory: Heizou is Hoyoverse's way of trying out close quarter combat style character and see how the current players respond to it. This is so they have some sort of reference when they want to design Natlan characters that do the same.
This. There's hardly any single enemy you can knock around, and when there's a swarm of smaller mobs, both electro-charged and frozen mechanics solve the damage distribution problem. Also, with being close and personal with the target I can finally unleash my perma-wet Barbara
Out of all my 90 wishes. I got C infinite Thomas, 1 Heizou and a Jean. I saved just to get Kazuha. My rage is immeasurable right now. So Heizou better be an effective Coping Mechanism. Edit: After putting my time in farming primos from the Islands, I've finally got a Kazuha and C1 Heizou. Safe to say, I'm happy now.
I know your pain, i wanted freedom sworn and not only did I lose my 50/50 both times I went to hard pity every time. I was going to roll for Heizou after but now I'm prob going to skip since I wasted too many primos.
I kinda of fill your pain. I have being saving for kazuha for A WHILE and, at all of the 4 stars the only one that I was slyly interested on was Ningguang because I'm building a mono Geo team and I pretended to put her in this team, so gaining some constellations would be cool. 60+ wishes latter and then I ended up getting c3 Heizou, c4 Thoma, not even a single copy of Ningguang, and I lost my 50/50 to Diluc. And them I'm here trying to see if Heizou can be useful for something for me
im not a whale but my c6 8/10/10 with shitty artefact (i mean they nice but not whale artefact) doing 70k (no boost only full stack) and with bennett 109k
I was just able to barely clear 130k skill with bennet buff, and I’m only at C3, at C6 I think it’s possible to clear atleast 150k, and with god send artifacts you could even clear 200k.
Heizhou is pretty good for daily end game user like me that already have a overpower and fully invested character. He's limited dmg is very good. Why? So i can feel the game again. Well at least my enemy cant died in seconds i teleport. 💀
Thats very true, although with limited dmg, with maxed out talents and constellations and with the right team he can still definitely easily beat the abyss, very nice character.
He's alright at best at c0 . Doing 6digits on his skill/burst isn't anything special considering Sara with supports can also drop 6 digit nukes with her burst at c0 too. And unlike Heizou she actually has access to some to shred the resistance of the element she uses
@@justsomeguy727 True nowadays hitting 6 digits number is not anything, but still one use elemental burst which requires 80 energy cost and terrible particle generation while the other one coming from elemental skill.
@@justsomeguy727 they're very different tho. Sara can achieve high numbers but only every 20s with 80 energy cost. heizou basically just has stamina cost on it. Also Anemo is arguably the STRONGEST shield shredder, as long as you have multiple enemies with multiple elements on, anemo will swirl on every single one creating multiple reactions and each one apply damage to shields. And most single-target enemies don't have shields to begin with.
Well Sucrose attacks are ridiculously fast. But I get what you mean. Catalyst does bring concerns, but with Heizou they are trying to break that mindset so ppl start loving catalyst again instead of only praising Spear 😅
Fun detail about Heizou! He can actually mine ores I assume because he’s technically punching them, which means he gets to join Klee and Ninguang as catalysts who can mine
Just a heads up to my Heizou bros: one of the rumored artifact sets from Sumeru grants ATK% and/or EM based on your team composition, so it may be a very flexible option if you're willing to wait 40 days.
Aside from his C3 that increases his E hit, he really doesn't have any meaningful power boosts until C6 (though that's kind of a doozy). The rest of his constellations are basically quality of life upgrades.
@@justsomeguy727 because Sara’s play style is stiff, unlike Heizou that can dish out a huge damage without any complicated stuff like rotation, positioning & etc. and her kit is meant to buff Raiden, sure you can make her as her own dps but again, her play style is too stiff added the fact that she’s electro - the weakest element in the game as of now. Plus Heizou is anemo. Slap him some VV and he already hurts cuz even if your VV artifacts is +0 the 40% decrease elemental resistance is still there.
he's the first character that I've ever owned where I genuinely couldn't care less about the damage. He just looks so sick when he's fighting. His mediocre damage forces him to keep attacking and I get to watch him stylishly commit genocide for longer
I religiously refer to your guide videos to learn about new character builds and guides the pacing of your videos and the format your guides follow is perfection in my eyes, I cant wait for your next upload and I hope whatever your going through irl is resolved in your favor!
Ningguang would be the perfect DPS if not for her being Geo. 1. No charged attack stamina cost and can deal up to 2x more damage with max Star Jades 2. 3 E's in like what, 3 seconds? if you're not gonna do that, it's a guaranteed E every 6 seconds which can deal up to 35k damage each 3. Burst will whittle down a single target boss. 4. Range, can take down all kinds of shields (which will change to MOST shields if she was any other element) 5. Mommy
Not as simple as that. Her kit is design for geo, pure brute force with low energy cost, short cooldown, and relatively high multiplier (compared to her peers at least). If she were another element, i'd imagine her damage multiplier would be lower, her skill would also slightly change. She is perfectly fine geo dps, whether she is competitive with other unit or not doesn't matter, she works fine as is.
Heizou fixed my issue with Xiao. We finally get an Anemo DPS that can benefit more from Swirl, and is able to work well with sub dps like Xingqiu, Yelan, Beidou, etc
I thought yelan works with him? Just do a simple n1 plunge. It makes sure that you gain her a4 passive boost and to make it so that she's not just there for the DMG boost but to be a sub dps Although correct me if I'm wrong
@@ironspider_9522 she totally works with Xiao and by the end of her burst she increases each plunge by 10k+ (plus the exquisite throws dmg: 5k x3 for each plunge, with copium artifacts. Overall, during her and xiao's bursts, she adds something like 150k via throws damage and another 150k via plunge dmg increase. And that doesn't even take into account the buffed dmg for other party members: my albedo flower gets a nice boost too during her burst). So, overall, she is a competent support for Xiao, as well as a sub dps (directly and by buffing other sub dps, especially off field ones)
Don't worry, in 3.0, VV/Maiden's, TF/Thundersoother, CW/Lavawalker, Archaic/Bolide and Heart of Depth/Blizzard will all be added in the artifact strongbox.
@@FakingGold Yes, you will be able to craft them in the alchemy table, so save your trash artifacts for 3.0 and then craft them into your desired artifacts mentioned previously.
If you use him as your driver in a taser team, it makes Kuki a better option than she is in a sucrose taser team because you don't have to worry about the low range of her E since you're in melee range anyway. So if you REALLY need more healing in your taser team (if not then just use Fischl/Beidou/Yae/etc), he indirectly buffed her.
How?? All my characters are level 90 with artefacts 5stars and i only can get 7k in damage? Should i use only crite rate and crit dmg and not use any atk% artefacts??
@@Aya-20248 im at lvl70 and its true he does that dmg, i use 2pc vv and 2pc glad focus on crit rate and crit dmg. Sand should be atk, anemo goblet, crit rate or crit dmg circlet and im using widsith lvl90 Also substats should be cr and cd
@@Aya-20248 have you leveled his talents? Especially his elemental skill. Also, I'm sure you already know this but charge up his stack to 4 so you could get the highest damage you coukd get :>
I lost Kazuha with Jean but I guess I'm okay with that and also I got Heizou. Maybe on next Kazuha's rerun will definitely get him. Update: OMG! I JUST GOT KAZUHA! THANKS TO Y'ALL! LOVEYOU GUYS.
precisely because of his melee animations he's so fun in open world... i never thought punching pigeons and kicking dandelions could be so fun, but damn the first time he punched a bird mid-air with his fist i couldn't stop laughing for a good minute
I just got 3 heizou's in my first 10 pull, along with three new weapons (including a new polearm for xiangling, she can finally stop using a lv 60 white tassel) very glad he's a good character
I’mma summarize for y’all, since the title was misleading and the video is relatively long: Heizou’s skill has pretty good damage. He doesn’t have a lot of options to shred anemo to be a carry, so his performance is hindered. His attacks hit like a wet noodle, and C2’s grouping is lackluster. EM is a niche build for him essentially locked to XQ/Fish. Standard damage spread is flexible, but runs into the issue of squeezing a full declension skill in before buffs run out-which non-declension skills are generally not worth it with the considerable declension damage scaling. Pull if you like him, but not if you’re expecting a god-tier character. I probably saved you 10 minutes.
With how much time on the field, i think Lost Prayer would be good on him,, get all the buffs of bennett etc and stay on the field whilst he builds up stacks for LP and his E
Finally I someone who can use the Lost Prayer I didn't want from standard. Yanfei could also potentially use it, but I prefer Dodoco Tales on her because the immediate buff allows you to quickswap to supports without losing stacks. Heizou wants to be on-field longer so he can really take advantage of the stacks after you set him up with some off-field support.
I really liked the infographic showing the relevant stats while showcases were going on! Made it very clear to see what to expect, and having them visible and handy like that is just super helpful. Often in other guides I've seen, I have to keep scrubbing back and pausing to see a characters stats for reference. Great stuff as always!
I definitely see Heizou being a test case for bringing in a different type of weapon for a more fist melee type combat. Maybe bringing a Fu Hua type character from Honkai Impact down the line. Just my little theory.
After reading the comments lmao I’m glad I’m not the only one that got tons of Thoma’s and only 1 Heizou (Got 4 Thomas, 1 Chongyun, and the four star Bell claymore before Heizou finally came home. Even though he’s C0 I’m glad I got him lol and definitely cannot use anymore primogems… my pity is too high.)
Great video! Super useful. I didn't want to level up his talents until I saw what you thought of him. You continue to be my go-to guide maker after all this time playing Genshin!
I was lucky to get C3 Heizou and my man does casual 60k (lvl 12 talent) with his skill without support 80k with buffs like Benny And he is so fun to play, the only thing I regret is not having enough material to crown him
He seems very very fun, but meta-wise, he is a Sucrose downgrade. I know he is technically better when they're both on crit build, Sucrose is likely better than any Heizou build when she's on full EM and has something to swirl.
As much as I love Heizhou VV domain is the definition of torture, I've farmed that shithole for 4 months, I've yet to get a good 4pc for Kazuha, he's still rocking 2pc Glad and 2pc Wanderer's, because my VV pieces are that shitty Yet with the amazing Maiden pieces I have I could probably build hybrid DPS, healer Barbruh
the way my kazuha is also running 2pc glad and 2pc wanderer’s too even tho i’ve farmed that domain ever since venti’s second rerun and i don’t even have any godtier pieces like i have gotten from other domains 😭
I’m excited to see some Heizou videos with his constellations! I won’t be going for his constellations this time around because I’m saving for a character, but I hope I can pick some up next time he comes around.
I got a double Kazuha in a single 10-pull and C4 Heizou in 90 pulls. Never been this blessed before! Knew Kazuha was OP and a lot of fun, but Heizou´s gameplay has grown on me. His e feels really good to charge and then release at 4 stacks :DD
I plan on building him in either 4pc shimenawa or 2pc atk & 2pc vv with my r3 widsith. I also already have a team for him: Heizou, Anemo Traveler for anemo shred, bennett, then either xingqui or fischl.
I would love if his E skill acted liked Jean’s charge attack that almost puts enemies in slow motion on a wind current so he wouldn’t have to chase enemies down and they would be unable to attack too!
I use Yun Jin (C6), Barbara, Heizou. 4th can be anything you have free. My Heizou is crit build (15% anemo and 18% ATK set) and comp revolves around him (wanted to make 4* Heizou main dps comp). Yun Jin gives huge boost to Heizou normal attack. Barbara is here to buff ATK (catalist) and provide reaction (ELe skill) so Heizou can fill up ele Skill charges. As forth char you can use Rosaria for freeze or Fishl for electro charged. I find this comp quite flexible.
I haven't played Genshin in months and when I came back, I rolled for Heizou and got him in 10 pulls. I have no idea what teams are great for him so thanks
I wish I was Heizou Perfect hair Perfect face Perfect artifacts Perfect legs 3 crowned Nsfw Artista studying my entire anatomy And A huge massive taser With a Elemental Mastery to boot.
Didn't watch the video yet, but I feel like I can be veryvhappy that I pulled his c6 while pulling for Kazuha c1. The 4 stars in the banner are great for me. My Ningguang was still c3 and I had no Thoma.
i feel so lucky, i hear everyone talking abt only getting one heizou after many pulls and im over here after getting 2 copies of him in my first ten pull
He's SOOOOO FUN! I Cannot freakin WAIT for what's to come down the line with future melee characters and perhaps other combat styles. You already know there's going to be at least one t star melee character that goes crazy 🔥🔥🔥
Hes swiftly become my favourite charevter to use, he's so satisfying. He does have high damage potential, but thats not why I love him. I use him in an overload team with Bennett, thoma and raiden, so clearly not optimal, but punching out fireballs and lightning bolts and blowing shit up with EM buffed overload is just hilarious
He is amazing. I pulled immediately for Klee and got him too. His skill is so good in my opinion and Burst too, and his attack is decent, and fast so you can build up his talent for the skill pretty quickly
@@keane2160 Probably yes but Heizhou again is not the best at grouping things together. His more a Sub Dps than support, because yeah his skill just dosent pull things together , so yeah, best as Sub or Main DPS. For Klee Sucrose, Kazuha or even Venti would be great because they pull everything to one spot and that works great with Klees Skill and overall atack
I did a single multi and got c1 heizou, I have him at lvl 60 lvl 4 element skill with lvl 90 r5 dodoco tales and he crit for nearly 30k. I just gave him my Xaio artifacts with over 200% crit dmg. With a 1.9k atk stat and no buff.
Just got Heizou from standard banner, I missed out on him when I was taking my break from Genshin and I was bummed that I had missed him because as a fighting game player I love punchers. Building him is gonna have to wait though, I am currently in process of building a team for Nilou and my resources are going into her, Barbruh and Collei.
I tried so hard to get a copy of Kuki. When I reached soft pitty for Itto I gave up on her. It paid off big time. In 3 wishes I got a 3 star weapon, Heizuo and then Kazuha. Best 3 wishes ever.
His Elemental Skill currently has a bug it seems, and Hoyoverse has addressed it saying something along the lines that sometimes his fully stacked Elemental Skill will only do tap damage.
He is not just having a decent damange, but his gameplay is sooooooo fun that even I was simping Itto so hard after I get him on rerun banner, now im just put him in my team for emotional support and playing Heizou as a DPS instead lol.
As a big fan of Anemo, I was so happy I got Heizou along with Kazuha. I got them in 40 pulls but that doesn't mean I didn't het a C6 Thoma while wanting to have a single Heizou. And yes, I pulled C6 Thoma and a C0 Heizou :)
I remember when they reveales heizhou on instagram, everyone was shitting on mihoyo saying heizhou looks awful, now here he is as the most fun and probably most powerful inazuma 4 star at c0.
Agreed! I pulled for him out of curiosity,got him in my first 10 pull.saw the dmg,gave and I was so surprised.gave him some of my good artis,217 crit dmg.he does so much damage it's like he's a 5 star chara even at c0
Heizou is incredibly fun, i got him today at C0 and I'm absolutely delighted with his playstyle and capacity. Plus, given that i 36starred abyss with him at lvl60 on a taser team that's not exactly amazingly built, i think it's safe to say he's a pretty good unit :D
Ive been too focused on trying to farm for kazu( which i lost to qiqi) that i Forgot to farm for heizou. And I don't have enough beetles which is a torture to farm :(
For me, the fun part starts where I need to build him on my secondary account at AR 25. I don't have access to endgame artifacts yet, so thankfully, there is no guide to spoil my fun.
Yknow what's funny? I like the knockback on his E cause the N1C(Normal attack once, charged attack) actually chases the enemy wherever they went which is fun!
I used all my 76 wishes and got C1 Heizou, C2 Ninguang, C2 Thoma, and a Kazuha. I'm pretty happy with the characters I got! I'm starting to build my Heizou, he is a REALLY 4-star good character.
It's pretty ironic that we finally got a strong Inazuma C0 4-star and it's only when the whole region is finally phasing out :D
Which tier do you think he is?
Like they say, Save the best for last. 🥲
It is like the first character where i say yo he is worth it and i am fine with 1 heizou and no cons so i have wishes for Sumero chars and i get all the other chars, weapons and a mona. Everything but not heizou. I have literally everything prefarmed for him. Not like i had for all the other chars.

So if you REALLY need more healing in your taser team (if not then just use Fischl/Beidou/Yae/etc), he indirectly buffed her.
yours is always the 1st video I watch when a new character comes out for a realistic/reliable take on them, good job!! :D
Leveled him up to 60 today and Heizou can immediately deal 22k in a single skill.
How?? All my characters are level 90 with artefacts 5stars and i only can get 7k in damage? Should i use only crite rate and crit dmg and not use any atk% artefacts??
@@Aya-20248 im at lvl70 and its true he does that dmg, i use 2pc vv and 2pc glad focus on crit rate and crit dmg. Sand should be atk, anemo goblet, crit rate or crit dmg circlet and im using widsith lvl90
Also substats should be cr and cd
@@Aya-20248 have you leveled his talents? Especially his elemental skill. Also, I'm sure you already know this but charge up his stack to 4 so you could get the highest damage you coukd get :>
@@tomoedaichi5588 thanks
I recently got heizou, great to know what works for him:D
everyone only recently got heizou
" Recently" he came out 3 hours ago
Tf you mean recently man? Everyone has it and he came it just some hours ago
I lost Kazuha with Jean but I guess I'm okay with that and also I got Heizou. Maybe on next Kazuha's rerun will definitely get him.
Update: OMG! I JUST GOT KAZUHA! THANKS TO Y'ALL! LOVEYOU GUYS.
Same I hope you get kazuha early
well 1more year
Lost mine to a c2 diluc
I got c1 qiqi…..
Ah same. But well that mean i dont have to worry failing any sumeru chara i want to pull
precisely because of his melee animations he's so fun in open world... i never thought punching pigeons and kicking dandelions could be so fun, but damn the first time he punched a bird mid-air with his fist i couldn't stop laughing for a good minute
It took me so many pulls to get kazuha that now i got a c6 thoma and heizou, looking for a c6 build video from you 😃
Took me almost 80pulls, my luck is so bad
Spent 120 wishes and got infinite thoma, ningguang, c1 kazuha and only c0 heizou 😭
I just got 3 heizou's in my first 10 pull, along with three new weapons (including a new polearm for xiangling, she can finally stop using a lv 60 white tassel)
very glad he's a good character
Liarrr
cool bro.. now u better shut that mouth before I start clapping those cheeks
@@bajulipat5210 It's litterally possible...
mmmmm
Wait why are you not farming for "The Catch"? that's the f2p BiS for Xiangling.
He's so much fun to play. Anemo always gets the most creative characters
I’mma summarize for y’all, since the title was misleading and the video is relatively long:
Heizou’s skill has pretty good damage. He doesn’t have a lot of options to shred anemo to be a carry, so his performance is hindered. His attacks hit like a wet noodle, and C2’s grouping is lackluster. EM is a niche build for him essentially locked to XQ/Fish. Standard damage spread is flexible, but runs into the issue of squeezing a full declension skill in before buffs run out-which non-declension skills are generally not worth it with the considerable declension damage scaling.
Pull if you like him, but not if you’re expecting a god-tier character.
I probably saved you 10 minutes.
Well summarized
just watch the video
He didn't mention c2 heizou at all because his heizou is c0 in this video.
mmm
@@masyan3457 he mentioned grouping, which I’m pretty sure only gets added with c2.
i got so lucky i pulled 30 times and got my first ningguang, heizou, and kazuha with no pity :0 as a free-player this was my dream come true
With how much time on the field, i think Lost Prayer would be good on him,, get all the buffs of bennett etc and stay on the field whilst he builds up stacks for LP and his E
LP on him has been so much fun mine in r3. I have widsith maxed too, but it's so aesthetically pleasing lol
Finally I someone who can use the Lost Prayer I didn't want from standard. Yanfei could also potentially use it, but I prefer Dodoco Tales on her because the immediate buff allows you to quickswap to supports without losing stacks. Heizou wants to be on-field longer so he can really take advantage of the stacks after you set him up with some off-field support.
I really liked the infographic showing the relevant stats while showcases were going on! Made it very clear to see what to expect, and having them visible and handy like that is just super helpful. Often in other guides I've seen, I have to keep scrubbing back and pausing to see a characters stats for reference.
Great stuff as always!
His kit is great since anemo when combined with elements. And his atk is elemental and aspd is quite fast
As time went by the quality of this channel's content has improved drastically. You've come a long way since Genshin 1.0.
Keep up the good work!
I definitely see Heizou being a test case for bringing in a different type of weapon for a more fist melee type combat. Maybe bringing a Fu Hua type character from Honkai Impact down the line. Just my little theory.
i got heizou and kazuha today so this is rlly cool to find out more about heizou!
Youre faster than my dad leaving for a milk
Amazing analysis as usual, can’t wait for the C6 tests, keep it up!
I'll likely be building him for my open world team.. I love his combat and the fighting style.
Man, you are faster than genshin R34 artist XD
After reading the comments lmao I’m glad I’m not the only one that got tons of Thoma’s and only 1 Heizou
(Got 4 Thomas, 1 Chongyun, and the four star Bell claymore before Heizou finally came home. Even though he’s C0 I’m glad I got him lol and definitely cannot use anymore primogems… my pity is too high.)
I got him C2 along Kazuha, I’m really excited to build him
Total how much pull & your pity!?
@@roshanbaig1487 I had 3 pity and did 60-ish pulls but i think it was worth it
Great video! Super useful. I didn't want to level up his talents until I saw what you thought of him. You continue to be my go-to guide maker after all this time playing Genshin!
Thanks Hoyoverse for giving me 1 copy of Heizou, now I have c20 Thoma!
I just got him a few days ago and he's now my main DPS... As a player who loves elemental reactions than damage, I love his playstyle
I was lucky to get C3 Heizou and my man does casual 60k (lvl 12 talent) with his skill without support
80k with buffs like Benny
And he is so fun to play, the only thing I regret is not having enough material to crown him
Finally a 4 star that doesn't revolve mainly supporting a "specific" Inazuma 5 star character.
He seems very very fun, but meta-wise, he is a Sucrose downgrade. I know he is technically better when they're both on crit build, Sucrose is likely better than any Heizou build when she's on full EM and has something to swirl.
i pulled c1 today and im so glad, ty for the video!
As much as I love Heizhou
VV domain is the definition of torture, I've farmed that shithole for 4 months, I've yet to get a good 4pc for Kazuha, he's still rocking 2pc Glad and 2pc Wanderer's, because my VV pieces are that shitty
Yet with the amazing Maiden pieces I have I could probably build hybrid DPS, healer Barbruh
Leaks confirm that VV is coming to the artifact strongbox soon, so that will at least help
you should use any EM VV regardless of substats, the 4pc set effect is just godly on anemo
the way my kazuha is also running 2pc glad and 2pc wanderer’s too even tho i’ve farmed that domain ever since venti’s second rerun and i don’t even have any godtier pieces like i have gotten from other domains 😭
I farmed it for one hour and if dropped an em set when I was just looking for an atk Sands
I’m excited to see some Heizou videos with his constellations! I won’t be going for his constellations this time around because I’m saving for a character, but I hope I can pick some up next time he comes around.
gacha gamer has early access and is able to test characters ahead of time. how does no one know this, he mentions it all the time lol
I got a double Kazuha in a single 10-pull and C4 Heizou in 90 pulls. Never been this blessed before!
Knew Kazuha was OP and a lot of fun, but Heizou´s gameplay has grown on me. His e feels really good to charge and then release at 4 stacks :DD
I plan on building him in either 4pc shimenawa or 2pc atk & 2pc vv with my r3 widsith. I also already have a team for him: Heizou, Anemo Traveler for anemo shred, bennett, then either xingqui or fischl.
Finally a catalyst character that won't become a TTDS slave
I got Jean, Kazuha, and 2 Heizo’s all in one pull today hoyo really blessed me
All in one ten pull? Wow
I like when he said he tested a lot of team comp and the video shows 9 screens of testing but it's the same clip lol
WAIT HE CAME OUT TODAY?!?
yeah.
Appreciate this video Gacha...good looking out 🔥👌🏽
🌸😹He would certainly shock us all and utterly blow away expectations alongside the mind at that😹🌸
I see you everywhere
I wonder why you decorate your comments with a blossom and a cat everytime 😂(i like it 😻🌸)
7:55 that perfect 60.000 damage though...... Satisfying!
Heizou is one of my all time favorite 4 star character. He’s just so freaking cool
Wtf so fast lmao
I would love if his E skill acted liked Jean’s charge attack that almost puts enemies in slow motion on a wind current so he wouldn’t have to chase enemies down and they would be unable to attack too!
I'm just stoked he PUNCHES the air. The dude is a literal airbender!
I use Yun Jin (C6), Barbara, Heizou. 4th can be anything you have free. My Heizou is crit build (15% anemo and 18% ATK set) and comp revolves around him (wanted to make 4* Heizou main dps comp). Yun Jin gives huge boost to Heizou normal attack. Barbara is here to buff ATK (catalist) and provide reaction (ELe skill) so Heizou can fill up ele Skill charges. As forth char you can use Rosaria for freeze or Fishl for electro charged. I find this comp quite flexible.
I haven't played Genshin in months and when I came back, I rolled for Heizou and got him in 10 pulls. I have no idea what teams are great for him so thanks
I wish I was Heizou
Perfect hair
Perfect face
Perfect artifacts
Perfect legs
3 crowned
Nsfw Artista studying my entire anatomy
And
A huge massive taser
With a Elemental Mastery to boot.
Didn't watch the video yet, but I feel like I can be veryvhappy that I pulled his c6 while pulling for Kazuha c1.
The 4 stars in the banner are great for me. My Ningguang was still c3 and I had no Thoma.
i feel so lucky, i hear everyone talking abt only getting one heizou after many pulls and im over here after getting 2 copies of him in my first ten pull
He's SOOOOO FUN! I Cannot freakin WAIT for what's to come down the line with future melee characters and perhaps other combat styles. You already know there's going to be at least one t star melee character that goes crazy 🔥🔥🔥
Hes swiftly become my favourite charevter to use, he's so satisfying.
He does have high damage potential, but thats not why I love him.
I use him in an overload team with Bennett, thoma and raiden, so clearly not optimal, but punching out fireballs and lightning bolts and blowing shit up with EM buffed overload is just hilarious
He is amazing. I pulled immediately for Klee and got him too. His skill is so good in my opinion and Burst too, and his attack is decent, and fast so you can build up his talent for the skill pretty quickly
can i put him in a team with klee?
@@keane2160 Probably yes but Heizhou again is not the best at grouping things together. His more a Sub Dps than support, because yeah his skill just dosent pull things together , so yeah, best as Sub or Main DPS. For Klee Sucrose, Kazuha or even Venti would be great because they pull everything to one spot and that works great with Klees Skill and overall atack
@@hannabeaverly6263 i dont have those characters sadly
@@keane2160 Damn. Well yeah, Hiezhou is not good support for the most part
I did a single multi and got c1 heizou, I have him at lvl 60 lvl 4 element skill with lvl 90 r5 dodoco tales and he crit for nearly 30k. I just gave him my Xaio artifacts with over 200% crit dmg. With a 1.9k atk stat and no buff.
Just got Heizou from standard banner, I missed out on him when I was taking my break from Genshin and I was bummed that I had missed him because as a fighting game player I love punchers. Building him is gonna have to wait though, I am currently in process of building a team for Nilou and my resources are going into her, Barbruh and Collei.
Hope you get things together mate, thanks for the vid.
I got him three times in 10 pull with kazuha and I immediately went here to see if he's good or not lmao, good luck to everyone who want him!
I got him unexpectedly on my first try w/ 10 pulls/wishes. Can’t wait to lvl him up. whoever is trying to pull him I hope you get him soon 💪🏼
OMG i thought my luck was ok. I got kazuha, c1 heizou, c2 thoma, and ning under 80 pulls. I wished singles btw. and now i cant believe how lucky i was
I tried so hard to get a copy of Kuki. When I reached soft pitty for Itto I gave up on her. It paid off big time. In 3 wishes I got a 3 star weapon, Heizuo and then Kazuha. Best 3 wishes ever.
Holly moly. 4 more wishes and I have Klee. This is crazy.
Ok?
Very good guide . You put a lot of time . Nice
His Elemental Skill currently has a bug it seems, and Hoyoverse has addressed it saying something along the lines that sometimes his fully stacked Elemental Skill will only do tap damage.
i appreciate the time and effort u put into ur vids, thank you we love you
He is not just having a decent damange, but his gameplay is sooooooo fun that even I was simping Itto so hard after I get him on rerun banner, now im just put him in my team for emotional support and playing Heizou as a DPS instead lol.
As a big fan of Anemo, I was so happy I got Heizou along with Kazuha. I got them in 40 pulls but that doesn't mean I didn't het a C6 Thoma while wanting to have a single Heizou. And yes, I pulled C6 Thoma and a C0 Heizou :)
I remember when they reveales heizhou on instagram, everyone was shitting on mihoyo saying heizhou looks awful, now here he is as the most fun and probably most powerful inazuma 4 star at c0.
Agreed! I pulled for him out of curiosity,got him in my first 10 pull.saw the dmg,gave and I was so surprised.gave him some of my good artis,217 crit dmg.he does so much damage it's like he's a 5 star chara even at c0
Heizou is incredibly fun, i got him today at C0 and I'm absolutely delighted with his playstyle and capacity.
Plus, given that i 36starred abyss with him at lvl60 on a taser team that's not exactly amazingly built, i think it's safe to say he's a pretty good unit :D
Ive been too focused on trying to farm for kazu( which i lost to qiqi) that i Forgot to farm for heizou. And I don't have enough beetles which is a torture to farm :(
For me, the fun part starts where I need to build him on my secondary account at AR 25. I don't have access to endgame artifacts yet, so thankfully, there is no guide to spoil my fun.
would u advise me to invest into a team with Heizou if i don’t have time to grind a lot. like if he might not be worth it long term or something? idrk
Yknow what's funny? I like the knockback on his E cause the N1C(Normal attack once, charged attack) actually chases the enemy wherever they went which is fun!
love your content! very nice
I used all my 76 wishes and got C1 Heizou, C2 Ninguang, C2 Thoma, and a Kazuha. I'm pretty happy with the characters I got! I'm starting to build my Heizou, he is a REALLY 4-star good character.
Glad to see it's not just me having to put up with bad VV artifacts. I swear that domain is cursed lol. He seems like an interesting character.
I was pulling for Kahuza (I got him btw) and he came home too with C4 lol welcome home buddy 🍃
Got Kazuha and Heizou in my first 10 pulls this banner. Pretty cool. Don't know if I can use Heizou now that I have Kazuha, but I'll experiment a bit.
