We Don't Speak About Our Layla Pulls... [Genshin Impact Swords Only]
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ม.ค. 2025
- Swords Only in Genshin Impact can be quite challenging at times. However, as the self-proclaimed master of "Weapon" Only challenges in this game, I am able to best any obstacle (probably).
Layla is finally on a banner, and since she is another sword wielder, we have to try and bring her home by wishing... And our wishes both went well, yet also not-as-intended...
HoYoVerse put out a tweet saying "Polearm Impact"... So I decided to take it upon myself to make a new account, but only use characters who wield a sword because absolutely nobody asked me to.

Alhaithem is *confirmed a sword user* when he fought Cyno so let's hope he comes as a banner soon!
So raiden is a sword user just bc she used her sword in a cutsene
@@Ixy_Phoenix_Office lol, alhaitham is a sword user, what else he will be?
@@grosumihai3419 I'm hoping it's catalyst I want to laugh
3.4 i guess, maybe 3.5, least likely 3.6.
@@Ixy_Phoenix_Office Raiden uses a sword unique to her attacks, just like Childe, whereas Al Haitham is shown using the actual Xiphos Moonlight sword… which means he’s a sword character
Layla’s actually a really good shielder! Definitely a guaranteed boost for the account. Let’s hope HoyoVerse is finally gonna start making good four stars again
Still waiting for c4 yanfie on spells only😮💨😮💨
At least he finally has a shielder he can use (that isn't kaeya cause u need C4 for his shield)
@@cofeespear4992 his shilde is actually for him only it disappears if u switch
@@snapedu9166 he still counts as a shielder which I meant
@Offisianシ Thoma 🥲
I figured out sth by accident while using layla and albedo on my daily team: her cryo slugs can trigger albedo's flower and create a cryo crystalize shield at the same time. It's especially easy to do with her burst up at the same time. Now i can just stand in the middle of the enemies with my lvl 20 layla, not take any damage and watch my constructs do all the work 😂 dailies have never been more fun
Maybe I'll have to give that a shot 🤔
:0
I should be saving to get a Hu Tao constellation on her next rerun but nevermind! I’m getting Layla!
@@leightonisveryslay I don't even have Albedo but now I kinda wanna get Layla for HuTao
@@newbie4789 same!! I have c0 hu tao just waiting to deal big damage.
the transitions from swords only to main account and vice versa were actually so cool
Java: *Gets an attack sands with double crit*
Java: "Oo~"
Me: "Oo~"
Everyone: "Oo~"
For Layla, your best option is 4p Tenacity set, with 2p Tenacity 2p Blizzard set being good alternative option.
As for the weapon, favonius is your best support weapon, while harbinger of dawn being one of the better dps options.
For Layla it's good to go for Tenacity of the Millelith or Emblem of severed fate, er% sword like favonius, and hp/cryo/hp - she's a subdps with a beefy shield
4 tenacity and fav/ER weapon unless you have Key ig. Tenacity buff is just too good to skip out on.
:)
2p Emblem/Tenacity/Blizzard Strayer works too, depending on substats
Her damage is almost negligible. Usually better just to run 4PC ToM and HP/HP/HP. Can also do HP/HP/CR if running Favonius sword.
Damn, That Kazuha transition was smooth
" I'll pay for your tuition " and Layla came in 1 10 pull.
I got my Layla on my first 10 pull in pity for childe
18:04 „If this rolls an attack percent than we re in business.“ the Artefakt: main stat atk percent
Lol Java being silly as always
also its "artifact" but if u wanna spell it incorrectly its fine Ofc!
@@ChibiDaGamer the misspelling is the joke
@@fenn__fenn no it’s artifact in german
The plural for lotus is actually both “Loti” and “Lotuses”, it’s like how the plural of “Person” is both “People” and “Persons”.
“Lotuses” is the more common one, despite “Loti” being the original.
i will never take anyone seriously who says "persons", i cant help but think it sounds absolutely wrong 😭
@@crematedfelony "How do you use persons and people?
Persons is often used in formal, legal contexts to emphasize individuals as opposed to a group. People is the plural of person that's most commonly used in everyday communication to simply refer to multiple humans. But people can also be used as a singular noun to refer to a population or particular community." from google
@@gayceofspades thats nice to know ig? it doesnt really change what i said in any way tho
With layla you will have a masive boost on your account, but you have to build her properly, The set for Zhongli its the best for her. Hust stack hp and you will be fine.
what bosst? she only give confort
@@salutcmoa404 tenacity and no knocback = bigger dps
it makes me happy to see i'm not the only raiden main who got miko while rolling for layla
It actually feels kinda nice to have an inside name sort of thingy for Layla between you and us
Java out here with the vibes of tuonto, the comedy of Danny gonzalez and the luck of Bennett
You should definitely start saving for Al Haitem because he's the only dendro sword. And for Ayato's rerun
dendro traveler is crying in the corner rn
Kirara
Very excited too see Layla on Swords only!! She's become one of my favorite characters
5:46 if you stay close to the cube when it’s displaying the AOE for this attack, you can actually stay inside the vines- it’s vulnerable during this phase. I just attack it until the smallest ring closes in, then burst (if I don’t have a healer/shielder/tank/sacrifice) to i-frame through the implosion
that kazuha transition was SMOOTH ❤
Omg, I'm still fighting to get her but I'm so glad to see you pulling for her
Kazuha, Kaeya, Xingqiu, and Layla is a team I have been using ever since I got her, and it's been a lot of fun! I called it "Get Permafreeze'd", cuz the poor enemies can't even move lol
Edit: and yeah, I have Nilou's weapon on her, cuz I don't have Nilou, but got the sword while rolling for Jade Cutter a while ago
i play a version of this with kaeya, kazuha, kokomi and shenhe, and the DPS is enough for floor 12 (though ofc java cant play shenhe); permafreeze is super fun imo and while theres not that many big dmg numbers its really satisfying to see kaeyas burst hit 16-30k
Her hat sort of reminds me of those sleep hats that cartoon characters wear to bed
Something tells me to speak about the Layla pulls
2:54 as a C6 Layla haver she works great as a cryo support for specifically kaeya but also ayaka as well! she also works great with keqing!
Help my brain read the title to the tune of “we dont talk about bruno”
*”we don’t speak about out Layla pulls no no no we don’t speak about our Layla pullsssss”*
layla is actually really good with yoimiya, hope you get her on the main!
14:00 is about the series of events that occured when my best friend did his Layla snipe lol
Hey Java, you gave me inspiration to do a challenge I am doing Dentro impact, but only with the Dengel traveler I hope we can play in the future. You are my favorite content creator.
i love at the end when you said "if this piece rolls flat def we end the video" cuz you were like ... den end
Just gotten say love these series like spells only and sword only and I love seeing your videos pop up in my inbox always brights up my day
We don't talk about the pulls... No no no no no!
Edit: btw congrats on getting the sleepy shielder girl ✨
it’s lotuses but loti sounds so funny that i want that to be the correct one
Apparently on the 3.3 update there will be itto ( geo claymore) and wanderer/ scaramouche (anemo catalyst) and on the second banner run, Raiden ( electro pole arm) and ayato (hydro sword)
Raiden won’t be on the first half, she will be on the second half
@@Oyogitsuneoh ok Ty
12:37 I'm dead by that transition
Great job Java!
i could have used this like 2 days ago, i was going for layla at 25 pity and other than that trying to save for scaramouche and i got childe on my literal first single pull at 26💀
OH NOOOOO !!
Childe is fun to play though! Hope you get scara at super early and you have 2 fatui harbingers
Dw bro childe aint that bad, during the abyss he made 10k which I didn't think much about till I noticed he had a 1* bow and only 3 artefacts
He can be fun to play
Here within a hour and I LOVE this video. Great Work!
He talks about how he doesn’t want anymore sword characters coming out but in the next update Ayato is getting a rerun.
I remembered this banner. It was when i started genshin, it was my first limited 5* (tartaglia), and i got heizou and layla too, which was sad because at that time i was aiming for thoma lol
1:35 made me feel like I’m not alone- I was hoping for Layla but got THAT THING instead
i love these seriessss aaaaa
So I wasn’t the only one who was getting legend of Zelda twilight princess vibes from her😂
Great video, keep up the good work!
the plural for lotus would probably be loti because cactus follows the same tus rule
I very much relate to this video, I just wanted Layla because I haven't gotten any of the new four stars on their banners, and in the process of trying to get Layla I got Heizou six times, bringing him to c6
Java talking about the Yae: "don't tell Raiden. She doesn't exist"
Me *looks at spells only and my own yae* : welp, looks like Raiden just lost another friend
Yes I like my dark humor
@@darkworld0167 no one asked
Just like no one asked for your comment 😉
THAT YAE MIKO THING THAT HAPPENED TO YOU HAPPENED TO ME I WAS LIKE ".. but i wanted hu tao?" and i still didnt get the 4 star i wanted, TILL NOW.
all sets you can use for layla:
tenacity of the millelith (4)
tenacity of the millelith (2) whatever the heck the cryo sets called (2)
worst case scenario: noblesse oblige (4)
her BiS (best in slot) is 4pc tenacity or 4pc emblem with HP% or ER%. her BiS weapon(s) are: Key of Khaj-Nisut, Favonius Sword, Freedom-Sworn, Skyward Blade, Skyrider Sword.
I love you videos java Im so glad you post almost daily
Yesterday I got my first 5 star and it was Yae Miko and I’m SOOO HAPPYYYY!!!
I also got Diluc and Layla after that but yeah :)
Great vid ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
hi java! i just wanna say i love ur content so much, i dont watch that much videos fully but every video u post i watch fully ur fr my comfort creator rn and deffo deserves more attention bc ur so cool
I can’t get her on my main…
But I do ONE PULL on my ALT and there she is
The video's ending made me almost roll in laughter 😂😂
Albedo's sword looks amazing on her but well... the problem is clear
What keeps me up at night: For an earthquake is it cough drop over and hold?
15:02 THAT TRANSITION WAS AMAZING
Ah yes, Thoma, the character that has plagued EVERYONE’S 10 pulls since his release.
I’ve been pulling for Layla as well and I’ve only gotten Thoma lmao
I kept getting thoma and heizou, even got childe and lost the 50/50 to keqing after that trying to get layla😭
Guaranteed scara at least
i didn’t get a single thoma actually😭😭hes been avoiding me, i don’t have ONE copy of him
For real... I wanted Layla, and ended up with C1 Thoma and Yunjin. Like wtf Yunjin ?? Not even Heizou ??
not my browser crashing four times trying to watch this. mobile it is then
I like how in this whole video the one thing I remembered was the twilight princess reference
Layla best character ♥︎ she's likely based on the Arabic retelling of little red riding hood (Layla means night in Arabic). ngl I can't remember what the different pieces of her outfit are called but she's wearing a lot of Arab inspired looking clothing, so I think they just used some purposeful asymmetry to highlight stuff like her elf ears. Especially because not only does it seem like her hood is literally made to only cover one half of her head... it's also made to have a hole in the back for long hair (like Razor/Zhongli in his Morax days). So the hood technically makes even less sense when you think of it that way lol
Side note but as someone with multiple builds for her because I love her, I am also using Nilou's sword on her (I'll just get another copy or something in the future :')) jade cutter is also good if you want a bit of dps/tiny bit of hp. I'd recommend ER sands though since especially without constellations it can be hard to get her burst regularly, and her skill's stars are her only way of really getting any energy from her directly. Either way I hope you'll have fun with Layla because she's literally now my favorite character ever along with Eula
The kazuha jumping to the main just to get flabbergasted by Miko and jump back to swords only 🤣
This is a great thing to watch while lying in bed and feeling feint!
Umm ikr I
how to build layla!
sub dps: 2p blizzard strayer and 2p tenacity, Sands: HP% Goblet: Cryo DMG Bonus Circlet: CRIT DMG
shielder build: 4p tenacity, Sands: HP% Goblet: HP% Circlet: HP%
weapon options: harbinger of dawn, favonius sword
hope this helps u!!
Layla’s shield is based off of her hp
OH MY GOSH, YES! I LAYLA'S HAIR IS AMAZING!!! FINALLY SOMEONE WHO AGREES!
Bro it ended so abruptly it’s hilarious.
So no one will talk about how his transitions are so smooth? Ok.
Im late but...Trying to 4 stars as an f2p is pure suffering especially getting constellations (cries in Zero thomas)
Me who looked at my Childe who came home at fresh 30 pity: you're not supposed to be here. What am I going to do with you?
18:03, I'm sure you know this and just had a bit of a moment but, It can't get atk% on the substat because that is already the mainstat.
When he started pulling on his main, i was internally screaming "SWITCH BANNERS"
Good luck on everyone's lantern left!
I feel your pain, I got so many Thomas. Thankfully I did get Layla. Even at level 20 if you put decent HP artifacts on her he does some nice shielding.
14:02 and that's how my Layla pulls went-
not that mad about it tho since I was planing on pulling for yae in her next rerun but yea, a Yae and no Layla
java : lets hope theres no new sword character for a very long time
Ayato rerun in 3.3 :
Layla isn't just the first sword shielder, but in terms of shield power she's second to only Zhongli. If you build her with 4pc Tenacity and Fav Sword, she will easily have 100% shield uptime.
Congrats on Yae Miko! She's my favorite character, I'm delighted you could obtain her twice!
Bro was more lucky on the 5 star than the 4 star 😭
This is why I am a Layla main
As someone who got Childe on 50/50 at 31 pity, I can confirm that this is another banger video
Aesthetic wise the cinnabar spindle looks amazing on her
Uhm 20th! So freaking early!!!! Enjoy this series so much
If you want just go for 4pc tenacity or a 2pc blizzard and 2pv tenacity.
I recommend building her as a Diona.
10:18 man really said "lotussy" 😏
i love getting home and having a java video to watch
as far i can tell everyone keeps getting haunted by thoma on this banner, to a suspicious extent lol
"That's why you don't snipe four stars on banners."
"*wish i was give this advice on nilous banner.*"
8:23 "And within Twilight Princess, there was a species, or race, known as Zora..."
There are Zora within pretty much every Zelda game, mate. Some of them only have river Zora, who spit fire at you, but the sea zora that appeared in Twilight Princess are still pretty common.
That transition was slick but for future reference you should set the time of day to be the same in both clips
Java, if you're still confused on why high ar people collect the leyline from lower ar's and even though yes, your own level will give you more but, sometimes people prefer spending 2 minutes getting the material again and again instead of spending 10-20 minutes getting the material and doing it again
I feel ur pain man i wanted Candace but got up to 75 pitty instead and now saved since then
Now ended up saving 100 fates till now and yet my banner yet to come
14:05 Felt this, I was saving for Al-Haitham and Nahida but decided to pull for fun on Kazuha banner and accidentally win a 50/50 twice in a row, him and nahida
I mean kazuha is amazing
"Most videos don't hit 10k in weeks"
*This video having 10k already*
Build Layla HP if you want her to be a shield bot but probably with some ER and EM stats. Probabably 2 pc Tenacity and 2pc Blizzard
I LOVE SPELLS ONLY AND SWORDS!!!
Congratulations
And yes, she is decent for cryo resonance and Tenacity to buff Ayaka. And energy.
Kazuha story quest gives u a free sword so u can try it to get it if you are running out of swords
I wondered the exact same thing as you while building Nahida
Both Loti and Lotuses are correct
I remember trying to pull for yanfei on ayaka’s first banner, but I got a double 5* ten pull and still 0 yanfeis
Was anyone gonna tell him you cant get atk% on atk % sands?
I'm saving for Scara and had about 70 wishes, thankfully I got her onnmy first 10 pull
