I have 4-5 different emblem sets because I hate swapping artifacts around. It is genuinely so stupid two years in and we still don’t have preset loadouts.
It's gonna be great for old players but hell for new players. Talking from experience from other games. Load outs makes new players learn the bad habit of constantly switching the same set of artifacts on everyone. So they won't have multiple sets of artifacts when it matters. Ik this cuz this happened to me. Load outs are a bad bad idea.
I love your restraint from spending money to pull for weapons and characters. In my case, I ended up pulling for characters that I rarely use. My Cyno is collecting dust because Alhaitham is way better in hyperbloom/aggravate team. My Itto is in the home for elders because I still have shitty husk set despite of a complete geo team.
#askzajef Would you ever consider giving a tutorial on how to use Excel regarding its applications to Genshin theorycrafting? Like, all the shortcuts and keybinds etc. you use to quickly calculate the DPS differences and whatnot. Thanks and keep up the amazing content :)
I think he was also expecting her to work with a lot of other units. They gave the majority of Inazuma characters horrible energy problems with Raiden as the “solution” in mind lmao
I think weapons can be interesting when they encourage you to use characters you wouldn't otherwise use. Like a Redhorn Stonethresher makes (non-pyro) Xinyan and Noelle a lot more fun to play. So for a single five star weapon, I get two characters out of it, essentially. Of course, weapon banner still sucks, and the Stonethresher is a bit on an exception, in large part due to it addressing one of the things that really should be in Xinyan's kit.
Redhorn + 4pc bloodstained on Xinyan is my favorite meme build. Using pause screen to make charge attack spin until you are out of stamina PLUS bloodstained removing stamina cost for 10 seconds is just so goofy I love it
I means.. if bigger number is your kind of fun, then more power to you. Im not going to judge people for doing what they want to do with their resources. But like.. I don’t think any mediocre or bad character would ever need a 5 stars weapon to be functional and fun.
If you don't pull on weapon banner thats understandable, I got 7 Stringless since starting in 3.1, bad luck for you I guess. I suffer from the fav sword curse like Zajef though
There's something so interesting and funny about most of his 'fun' concept being just TF lMAO like I get people not liking Ganyu, but usually those will love Wanderer or even Heizou bc he's fast, or at least Yoi, but he doesn't like ANY of them, nor Ayaka bc of her charged attacks, but then adores anything usable with TF lol Just a nice fact to see how people's sense of fun can be so different
Tankfei is… interesting. I’ve used it with yoimiya to do swirl set ups, but then yunjin came out and I switched to zhongli and committed to the double geo
I would like to know what are your future plans with the account. What characters/teams would you like to build? Are you waiting to pull for someone in particular?
Ayato used to be one of the ones I'd give up before others, but then I remembered why I pulled him to begin with. His rhythm is just so fun and adaptive, his AoE so big, teams so various, and the man can use TF. One thing I feel kinda stupid about, though, I thought his Q would make for the sickest and comfiest AoE freeze team, and while I do like him a lot in freeze, I have several stronger options focusing on cryo dps and their OP set. Turns out freezing before they're tightly grouped is often a detriment... There's been a few cases it let me freeze a lawa before they shielded etc., though. He basically solves zero issues on my account, but I enjoy him and he gets most stuff done comfortably and consistently, I used to really underrate his national too.
I use him in my freeze team only tbh. Venti w allegy, rosaria fav and 4pc nobless, mona on prot amber r5 and 4pc ToM. Ayato Q> venti Q E> rosaria E Q> Mona Q E > Ayato E spam repeat. Solves all the problem you just mentioned. And nice thing is. Mona's Q doesn't pop for the entire rotation. You don't really need prototype amber either on Mona, thrilling tales also works fine. but it's nice against wolflords.
If anyone needed loadouts yesterday, Zajef would be that guy, wtfffffffff. I build all my characters and they each have their own personal artifacts and weapon. They are obviously watered down quality compared to his, but more than enough to clear 36 star. Constantly recreating the "correct" build from scratch off memory each time switching teams would drive me insane.
doesn't Keqing C1 ensure that both sets of E casts in E1>Q>E2>E1>E2 (with 4TF) get 2 Aggravates guaranteed? Not that 1 more Aggravate changes much, but it is there.
yo wait you might be on to something, I’ve had c1 for a while now so I have no clue how it works on c0 now but I think you might have figured something out
maybe it does but usually before E2>E1 there’s like half a second before the e cooldown ends so I usually do a charge atk between the e casts which procs an aggravate
I like nilou’s design because her restrictions balance her power level, and also incentivizes core production maximization which is super satisfying. But I do agree that without kokomi or nahida she is not as good and that makes her restrictive, but as we get more hydro and dendro units this problem should be less important

I recognize Zajef's knowledge and expertise when it comes to Genshin TC and I visit his account frequently to hear his opinion, however his idea of fun is really different from mine and therefore his account seems quite boring and dull for how I play and invest in carchaters.For example, Ganyu's charged attacks are a blast, and I mean literally, just seeing the damage it makes when melting is just fun on its own. Hu Tao's single target damage is great, still the best, when paired with XQ and now even Yelan. Or swirl with Kazuha/Tankfey. Zongli is not just when you don't know how to play. Zongli is pretty much required if you are using Ganyu for example, because how are you supposed to dodge while charg shooting? Cyno is definitely boring to me too, being a hyper carry-on-filed DPS with such a long burst. Being a TC I wonder how haven't he anticipated the playstyle?
Zhongli is my favorite character. I guess I'm not exactly the target audience for him either because I do bother learning enemy attack patterns and theorycrafting. But idk, I just love his character I guess haha. Him and Nahida are pretty much the only 5* I'm willing to pull constellations for. Not necessarily because they're useful, but because I just like him that much and it gives me joy seeing him with constellations.

@@НадеждаГлебова-м6х iirc it utilizes zhongli's pillar resonance damage with other geo constructs such as albedo's flower, itto's ushi, geomc's boulders, etc. usually you would build him with 2p petra/2p gladiators & preferably at c1 + homa. that's what i'm running on him since getting his c1 :) do correct me if i'm wrong though!

Only weapon banner I ever pulled on was a pretty good one a while back, the only reason I did it was because I didn’t have a fav sword and I was incredibly desperate for one and it was rate up. I did manage to get lucky and I got one fav sword in about 50 pulls. It was worth it but I don’t recommend it, it definitely could have gone very bad very easily. The only other weapon banner I’m gonna pull on probably ever is the 3.4 phase two. Both aqua similacra and homa would be great for me and the four stars are good especially cuz there’s fav sword again and I still only have that one fav sword from before.
Meanwhile me throwing away my duplicate fav swords cause I have it R5 lvl 90 already (I kinda regret not having 2 sometimes, but there is no way I am gonna level another copy of a weapon that I already have lvl 90)
@@ginichimaruan3572 And then there's my lazy ass with level 80-90 on 3 favge lances, 2 swords, 2 bows and a claymore... Not all at R5, I'm not that lucky, but I caught myself limiting my teams by what characters don't require me to do a build-swap and I like my variety more than I like sitting on a mountain of refinement ore.
@@rolf1819 because I won't use them? I only need one copy of a weapon, when I do abyss, when I need a weapon on a different character, I swap weapons. I hate storing useless things in my inventory.
I feel like realistically I play abyss for 20-30 minutes every 2 weeks and collecting all exploration actually takes way more time. So for me Wanderer and Yelan are easy most meta pulls u can zoom through like crazy
I also got Elegy on accident cuz Homa banner at that time but it was a "happy accident" as Bob Ross would say. For sure an useful weapon and my Sara loves it but I can see why isnt a priority.
@@idk4071 that doesn't fix the issue, you still have to run to the right place before ulting.....u still need to get the auto to hit the right enemy.....
Unfriendly person X (i want to be nice today): To few 5* and not enough weapons (also 5* weapons)!!!!! Also unfriendly person X in the same conversation: Abyss is so easy so you should play what you like!!! Imagine they would hear that he kept XIangling at level 60 for a long time just to show how strong she is.
i took ur advice and i have three r1 fav swords and didnt refined it, now its so easy to cast burst a lot in many teams that uses 3 swords users. i have only r1 fav sword even after ar60 until last week i got two copies from standard banner and didnt refined it, as an f2p ar60 player it felt good getting copies of fav swords after 2 dayum years lmao.
I was shocked to see we have almost the same 5* weapons. Primordial, 2 aquilas, skyward harp. Different is instead of elegy i have hunters path, instead of lost prayers i have tulaytullah and I have redhorn
i got one i started building it for xianling and finished it for zhong li and i do not regret it it is very strong and an interesting way to play. i still have a lot more spear billets, i can make another R5 spear if i wanted to but i don't think i will i have some pretty good 5/4 star alternatives fro everyone.
The refiment thing is very real That's why most of my weapons are at R1 because I am afraid of the day where I would have to use it on 2 or more characters LOL And what doesn't help that is that my luck with fav is very.... yeah I only have one fav sword and one fav polearm and two fav bows 4 fav greaswords and catalysts(even though I don't use them)
You’re wrong about Zhongli, he’s also a must pull for mobile players I can’t tell you how many times the game didn’t register a dash or a jump and his shield came in clutch
Eh I play mobile since I’ve started the game back in 2.3, I have zhong. I rarely use him outside of mono Geo and even outside of mono Geo I sometimes take him out. My phone is pretty strong so dodging is fine. I get ping spikes but it’s not enough to where I feel zhong is a necessity to me when I play the abyss.
Absolutely not. I’m a mobile player and I’m doing fine thank you. Not everyone who plays on mobile is a casual player or has bad ping, the upcoming Zhongli banner is a must skip for me.
What is your most fun to play teams, as well, please use food analogies, as well, do not forgot to add the seasonings. Hope you will do a video with that. Even if it is 1 hour long, please do it how many you need. I mean 1 hour long clips. And just: Part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, and to be continue... As well, thank you for the content.
5:34 and only on albedo so why did they have to lock both of his weapons behind events and never get them again making other players Albedo's weaker that players who joined in and got those weapons. they should rerun the events or have us use story keys to play the past events. there is so much content just thrown out for a 2 week event. newer players wont know who is albedo if you did not play early enough and can only go off his story quest. or who Mika is from the a couple of patches ago
When is the Dehya pre-release analysis coming out? Hearing a lot of people saying she’s bad, and she really isn’t looking too hot, but I’m not sure whether she’s actually in a terrible state or if people are just overreacting…
Her kit looks like tank / damage reduction at this moment, with low scaling and no other utility Not sure if current content is suitable for her, but maybe in the future hyv can make a content where she shines or shadow-buff her using future characters/artifact
Her current burst dmg at C0 with BIS weapon with Bennet buff and Kazuha buff only does 27k max per punch, 10 punches in 4 seconds if u spam click your mouse, and with a 16secs cool down. During her burst, for each punch you do, you character moves forwards, meaning u will end up exiting Bennet burst radius, making so u can only benefit from Bennet buff for a few punches if the enemy moves around a lot or can be knocked around easily. So don’t expect 27k for all 10 punches, maybe around 5 to 6 punches. Her skill is basically pyro Albedo, gives on field character stagger resistance and pyro application enemy every 2.5 seconds, 12 seconds duration, so only 4 pyro application, making her incapable of fitting in burgeon team. She’s basically useless in current patch, but maybe useful in future
@@Bullminator Ahh okay, so we can probably expect a pre-release analysis sometime late February/early March, then Probably still going to roll for her irregardless of how bad she seems to be since I really like her, but I really hope Hoyo makes some last-minute changes - if nothing else, pumping her numbers up a bit would be nice
Bro Zajeff, please give a bit focus on your audio on your YT videos. I always watch your videos but the volume were constantly very low. Increasing your audio a bit will also help your viewership and subs. Thanks bro!
I have 2x Homa, Skyward Harp, Mistplitter Reforged, R2 Aquila Favonia, Lost Prayers, Amos Bow, Wolf's Gravestone, and Skyward Spine. Out of all of them I would say the most useful weapon has been Elegy for the End. I got a lot out of it and used it on many characters. It sees almost 100% usage rate no matter what team I use. The only useless 5 star I have is Skyward Spine. Being compared to Favonius Bow is actually a compliment as that is one of the best if not the best 4 star support bow.
@@stephaniem.2909 cyno traveler (now nahida) kokomi and beidou. i had beidou on fav and same with traveler. i havent played in a while but i think nahida was either also on fav or on an em weapon i cant remember. they were all relatively low investment but i cleared pretty easy anyways lmao not all of them were 90

@@NinjaHoff it really depends, it is not applicable to everyone just like what the other guy said, "Fun is very subjective". I love using Sucrose on-field and Kazuha off-field.
I pulled on the Unforged Mistsplitter banner, because I heard that mistsplitter was good for many characters. Ended up with Unforged and right now my more educated self is aware, I don't even play a character who wants mistsplitter. Worst decision on my account so far
I pulled for raiden bc of her off-field skill damage... Pulled for kazuha to jump high.... Pulled yelan to run fast... Pulled kokomi because im lazy to go to a statue of the seven.....

Only weapon banner I ever pulled on was a pretty good one a while back, the only reason I did it was because I didn’t have a fav sword and I was incredibly desperate for one and it was rate up. I did manage to get lucky and I got one fav sword in about 50 pulls. It was worth it but I don’t recommend it, it definitely could have gone very bad very easily. The only other weapon banner I’m gonna pull on probably ever is the 3.4 phase two. Both aqua similacra and homa would be great for me and the four stars are good especially cuz there’s fav sword again and I still only have that one fav sword from before.
7 months of playing Genshin and i still don't have a Fav Sword.
Meanwhile me throwing away my duplicate fav swords cause I have it R5 lvl 90 already (I kinda regret not having 2 sometimes, but there is no way I am gonna level another copy of a weapon that I already have lvl 90)
@@ginichimaruan3572 And then there's my lazy ass with level 80-90 on 3 favge lances, 2 swords, 2 bows and a claymore... Not all at R5, I'm not that lucky, but I caught myself limiting my teams by what characters don't require me to do a build-swap and I like my variety more than I like sitting on a mountain of refinement ore.
@@ginichimaruan3572 Why do u throw anything away? Wtf? It's not a three star weapon...
@@rolf1819 because I won't use them? I only need one copy of a weapon, when I do abyss, when I need a weapon on a different character, I swap weapons. I hate storing useless things in my inventory.
As a whale that levels/100% absolutly everything in this game everything about this account triggers me lmao. Great vid jef keep it up!
I feel like realistically I play abyss for 20-30 minutes every 2 weeks and collecting all exploration actually takes way more time. So for me Wanderer and Yelan are easy most meta pulls u can zoom through like crazy
34:03 itto image with signora's song just got me. I was laughing for the rest of the video)
I also got Elegy on accident cuz Homa banner at that time but it was a "happy accident" as Bob Ross would say. For sure an useful weapon and my Sara loves it but I can see why isnt a priority.
Got it from the homa banner too lol
And then Elegy Yelan happened and Hu Tao mains who lost that 50/50 could rejoice once more. :p
What if he just switches it up and calls us ugly one day 😅
That would be terrifying

It’s fine I’m used to it
@@Rayhaku808 sadge
@@Rayhaku808 well im here to tell you that youre not. youre beautiful/handsome/pretty/cute (whichever you prefer) and i hope you have a nice day
Venti's autotargetting is sooo cringe though, I literally have to run to the right enemy so he will aim the right direction it makes me Madge
You can auto attack first to determine which direction you'll shoot your burst tho
@@idk4071 that doesn't fix the issue, you still have to run to the right place before ulting.....u still need to get the auto to hit the right enemy.....
Looking at yt comments expecting myself to be disappointed and sad and oh boy, they did not disappoint.
Why are there so many casuals here shitting on his account and preferences? The irony is insane.
Unfriendly person X (i want to be nice today): To few 5* and not enough weapons (also 5* weapons)!!!!!
Also unfriendly person X in the same conversation: Abyss is so easy so you should play what you like!!!
Imagine they would hear that he kept XIangling at level 60 for a long time just to show how strong she is.
Daim, I also regret my R5 Fav weapons. Would've been better to have more copies than refinements. 😔
i took ur advice and i have three r1 fav swords and didnt refined it, now its so easy to cast burst a lot in many teams that uses 3 swords users.
i have only r1 fav sword even after ar60 until last week i got two copies from standard banner and didnt refined it, as an f2p ar60 player it felt good getting copies of fav swords after 2 dayum years lmao.
I love this video. It's amazing you can clear abyss with average artifacts.
Meta characters do all the work
average artifacts? half that stuff was bonkers good. and he clearly abuses dendro which is absolutely ez mode.
Zajef to Xlice: Fine, I'll do it myself
Ive been playing for a long time and have r8 fav bow r7 fav greatsword r11 fav book AND NO FAV SWORD💀💀💀
Video (and timestamps) so much appreciated! Thanks
character review summed up "I hate every character"
I have a 128 Em feather for gilded that tiny 124 does not impress me
1 hr video?! happy yt frogs
I was shocked to see we have almost the same 5* weapons. Primordial, 2 aquilas, skyward harp. Different is instead of elegy i have hunters path, instead of lost prayers i have tulaytullah and I have redhorn
The man gets 500 stars every abyss with a nearly f2p account.
Who else here have an R5 crescent pike for physical carry Zhongli? 😂
i got one i started building it for xianling and finished it for zhong li and i do not regret it it is very strong and an interesting way to play.
i still have a lot more spear billets, i can make another R5 spear if i wanted to but i don't think i will i have some pretty good 5/4 star alternatives fro everyone.
i got mine for physical XL originally
Zajef roasting his triple crowned Hutao is so funny
The refiment thing is very real
That's why most of my weapons are at R1 because I am afraid of the day where I would have to use it on 2 or more characters LOL
And what doesn't help that is that my luck with fav is very.... yeah
I only have one fav sword and one fav polearm and two fav bows
4 fav greaswords and catalysts(even though I don't use them)
Ah yes, an hour of zachef asmr this is why you should subscribe
love this self critique of your account given that you've critiqued other peoples account good stuff.
Cyno is also my greatest regret, and I too, accidentally got Albedo.
man, this video is gonna trigger so many people lol
Already did, youtube watchers are sometimes so defensive about their favorite character lmao.
There are so many points where you could put vine boom sound effects in this video
You’re wrong about Zhongli, he’s also a must pull for mobile players I can’t tell you how many times the game didn’t register a dash or a jump and his shield came in clutch
Eh I play mobile since I’ve started the game back in 2.3, I have zhong. I rarely use him outside of mono Geo and even outside of mono Geo I sometimes take him out.
My phone is pretty strong so dodging is fine. I get ping spikes but it’s not enough to where I feel zhong is a necessity to me when I play the abyss.
Absolutely not. I’m a mobile player and I’m doing fine thank you. Not everyone who plays on mobile is a casual player or has bad ping, the upcoming Zhongli banner is a must skip for me.
3x crown hutao just to shit talk her, holy based
zajef77 the real tf gods
What is your most fun to play teams, as well, please use food analogies, as well, do not forgot to add the seasonings. Hope you will do a video with that. Even if it is 1 hour long, please do it how many you need. I mean 1 hour long clips. And just: Part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, and to be continue...
As well, thank you for the content.
Zajef becomes relatable at 27:10 so he's just lime frfr
Lmao the spam of pepeW on chat ICANT
The people in here who spent their parents money in their accounts are too damn high...
omg im so excited im gonna watch this when i go back home and eat
even if i was there on twitch, i cannot wait to see the editor’s art 🥰🥰
5:34 and only on albedo so why did they have to lock both of his weapons behind events and never get them again making other players Albedo's weaker that players who joined in and got those weapons. they should rerun the events or have us use story keys to play the past events. there is so much content just thrown out for a 2 week event. newer players wont know who is albedo if you did not play early enough and can only go off his story quest. or who Mika is from the a couple of patches ago
Thank you for this account review le chef
My biggest Problem with Nilou is that she feels like a Honkai Unit.
yay I was hoping you'd do that
I feel the pain with the favonius weapons. I played since launch still no fav greatsword in sight but like 2 r5 cat and spear ...
When is the Dehya pre-release analysis coming out? Hearing a lot of people saying she’s bad, and she really isn’t looking too hot, but I’m not sure whether she’s actually in a terrible state or if people are just overreacting…
Her kit looks like tank / damage reduction at this moment, with low scaling and no other utility
Not sure if current content is suitable for her, but maybe in the future hyv can make a content where she shines or shadow-buff her using future characters/artifact
Her current burst dmg at C0 with BIS weapon with Bennet buff and Kazuha buff only does 27k max per punch, 10 punches in 4 seconds if u spam click your mouse, and with a 16secs cool down. During her burst, for each punch you do, you character moves forwards, meaning u will end up exiting Bennet burst radius, making so u can only benefit from Bennet buff for a few punches if the enemy moves around a lot or can be knocked around easily. So don’t expect 27k for all 10 punches, maybe around 5 to 6 punches. Her skill is basically pyro Albedo, gives on field character stagger resistance and pyro application enemy every 2.5 seconds, 12 seconds duration, so only 4 pyro application, making her incapable of fitting in burgeon team. She’s basically useless in current patch, but maybe useful in future
The problem is that she's so bad its not worth doing a pre release.
@@Bullminator Ahh okay, so we can probably expect a pre-release analysis sometime late February/early March, then
Probably still going to roll for her irregardless of how bad she seems to be since I really like her, but I really hope Hoyo makes some last-minute changes - if nothing else, pumping her numbers up a bit would be nice
You can find Zajef short video on this very channel about her, nothing in her kit changed since
based account man i love accounts that go for playstyle variety also teapot showcase where ?!
I'm about to start watching and if I don't see TF set on every character I will be severely disappointed.
non-qiqi haver makes your account a 1000/10 compared to my c1 qiqi account
Bro Zajeff, please give a bit focus on your audio on your YT videos. I always watch your videos but the volume were constantly very low. Increasing your audio a bit will also help your viewership and subs.
Thanks bro!
I have 2x Homa, Skyward Harp, Mistplitter Reforged, R2 Aquila Favonia, Lost Prayers, Amos Bow, Wolf's Gravestone, and Skyward Spine.
Out of all of them I would say the most useful weapon has been Elegy for the End. I got a lot out of it and used it on many characters. It sees almost 100% usage rate no matter what team I use. The only useless 5 star I have is Skyward Spine. Being compared to Favonius Bow is actually a compliment as that is one of the best if not the best 4 star support bow.
Surprisingly not a lot of artifacts, which proves you dont need too much investments in them.... but I'm still farming to give everyone their own set.
ive had the most fun with cyno in quickbloom than aggravate but it might be because i just never liked keqing's playstyle
@bigkahunaburger6710 What's your team for cyno?
@@stephaniem.2909 cyno traveler (now nahida) kokomi and beidou. i had beidou on fav and same with traveler. i havent played in a while but i think nahida was either also on fav or on an em weapon i cant remember. they were all relatively low investment but i cleared pretty easy anyways lmao not all of them were 90
me seeing your 96 to 260 crit ratio while i remember having a 36 to 140 crit ratio on raiden 😭
My first 5* was diluc, got him and bennet on second newby pull (one with guaranteed noelle on first pull)
Someone should play a drinking game by taking a shot every time he says TF
Zajeff 2030 : I benched Dainsleif because he doesn't work with TF set.
time to see how many tf sets zajef has LMAO
I didnt get a favonius sword until this month and I played since launch xd
Im like you I have three Fav Swords...theyre so useful
*I hate every character that is strong! I hate every good artifacts, i hate farming, i hate every event .. but i gotta pay the bills so... 🤷🏻♂️lol
hoyoverse knew that if nilou didnt have the only dendro hydro restriction for the boutiful cores she would be too op
Zajef spitting facts on Kazuha not being a massive upgrade over Sucrose, if anything he is a side grade, not saying it as a bad thing.
I don’t think facts matter to casual and fanatic simp. best to leave them be, let them live with their ignorance.
I encountered these kind of people so many times and it is so frustrating to argue with them.
I think he's significantly more fun to play than Sucrose tho
@@NinjaHoff IMO Sucrose taser does have fantastic "I have no def, no HP, no healer, but I fear no god except myself" energy, but other than that I agree.
@@NinjaHoff Fun is very subjective, since others find Sucrose more fun to play and vice versa.
@@NinjaHoff it really depends, it is not applicable to everyone just like what the other guy said, "Fun is very subjective".
I love using Sucrose on-field and Kazuha off-field.
I pulled on the Unforged Mistsplitter banner, because I heard that mistsplitter was good for many characters. Ended up with Unforged and right now my more educated self is aware, I don't even play a character who wants mistsplitter. Worst decision on my account so far
20:07 HAHAHAHAH I FULLY AGREE WITH THIS STATEMENT WITH VENTI HAHAHAHAHA
I pulled for raiden bc of her off-field skill damage...
Pulled for kazuha to jump high....
Pulled yelan to run fast...
Pulled kokomi because im lazy to go to a statue of the seven.....
