F2P Alhaitham hyperbloom team x F2P Keqing aggravate team

Doing this F2P showcase with the main focus on Alhaitham and Keqing was kinda satisfying, maybe I could do something similar with other characters.
I must also admit that it was very easy because most of Alhaitham team damage came the hyperbloom reaction caused by my 1k EM Kuki, while the aggravate Keqing comp can deal huge damage thanks to Fischl's passive.

Awesome! I’m so mesmerized by all the hyper blooms lol- I wish I had kuki ):. (Also the thingy is ready if you wanna check it out :DDDD)

This sands on Keqing are godly

[@Totigno]

It's still one of my best artifacts on both accounts to this day

woah alhaitham showcase with damage that actually looks achievable?? no way

[@Totigno]

Harbinger of Dawn is literally stronger than any 4* weapon and characters like Kuki and Xinqui that heal Alhaitham can constantly trigger its passive. If I had swapped Traveler with Yaoyao or Prototype Amber Nahida, it could have been even better.
However, I must admit that Kuki helped a lot with the hyperbloom reactions for the overall team damage, which is extremely important in 12-3-1 against that chicken with high Dendro RES. I've done other videos with Alhaitham in a spread team, but against that damn chicken I always spent 90ish seconds, so bringing a hydro character to trigger bloom is very helpful

[@thatweirdodaniel]

@@Totigno yeah yeah!! my alhaitham has umbrella rn but once i level up my harbinger I'll definitely switch his weapon! i have been seeing the whole alhaitham, kuki, xingqiu team going around but honestly wondering if the last spot can just be anybody? like is double dendro/hydro the most optimal comp or could this still work if you bring someone like sucrose of kazuha for cc? is that even necessary?

[@Totigno]

@daniel if Alhaitham is the main DPS then the 4th slot should be a character that can constantly trigger the 4 piece set Deepwood, so characters like Nahida, Yaoyao or Dendro Traveler are very good options for him.
An anemo character like Sucrose or Kazuha is not ideal because they do not boost Alhaitham's damage and don't have a good synergy in general with Dendro DPSs.
Bringing another Dendro is usually the best option for 2 reasons:
1) Dendro synergy boosts team's EM, and since every single Dendro reaction is purely based on EM, it provides higher damage for all team members.
2) it is easier for a Dendro unit to efficiently use Deepwod, so Alhaitham can use 4-set Golden Dreams or any 2 pieces that boost EM for higher personal damage.
Bringing another Hydro is good but not optimal, because the Hydro synergy is not useful for every team member and applying to much Hydro could trigger bloom instead of hyperbloom (bloom deals damage to the character, which makes it difficult to use HoD's passive or constantly heal the team).
In the end, just bring a Dendro character

@@Totigno ahh ty ty!! stuff like this is so helpful since im pretty casual and im just starting to dip my toes into all the theory crafting stuff!! so in the end dendro units like nahida and traveler would work better than units like collei and tighnari because of their dendro application, yeah? anyway, thanks a lot!! this definitely helped me out a ton!!

[@Totigno]

@daniel Deepwood is triggered when elemental skill or burst deals damage to opponents even when the character is off-field and Dendro characters can also benefit from the 2-piece bonus.
At the moment Nahida, Traveler, Yaoyao and Collei's burst are the best characters to equip this set, while Alhaitham and Tighnari prefer other artifacts that boost their damage with both 2-piece and 4-piece set.
The only instance where Deepwood is better on them is when there is no other character that can constantly deal damage off-field to proc the effect.
One of the best non-Dendro characters that is good with Deepwood is Albedo, whose burst also gives 125 EM to the entire party

My kuki has 900ish em and she only does 30k hyperblooms. How are you getting 42k hyperblooms 😭

[@Totigno]

1) double dendro increases EM
2) Traveller is equipped with the set that increases dendro damage taken by the enem
3) Paradise Lost boosts hyperbloom damage
4) level 90 increases EM damage
5) Abyss buffs can help

Flower of paradise set also
