Crimson 4 piece isn’t even good on hutao. Cause it requires constant skill uses in a set period of time. Shim is probably better somewhat. Although her burst is useful in her kit to some degree.
@@marley7659 It is really good. The damage increase from the 4 set is really good. Although she cannot take full advantage of it, it's still a really good set for her. It's only slightly behind shim in terms of ca dmg and the fact that you can use your burst which not only gives good amount of dmg but also healing makes it the overall BiS.
C1R1 Hu Tao was a very expensive feat for me too. While I did have to spend RL money, I got my Primo's worth from this *epic* banner wave. I chose to skip Yelan this time, because I already achieved C6 on the featured 4-stars on my journey to C1 Hu Tao! For the weapon banner, the RNG turned out to be more in my favor than expected. I got both Aqua AND Homa, as well as an R5 Fav. Sword and R5 Codex and at least one copy of the other 4-star weapons! It'll be a long time before I'd be willing to spend anywhere near as much as over this month's rerun banners... What this second half banner wave made me realize is how much whales and min-maxers get "punished" by diminishing returns. 😯 By the time you C2 a new limited 5-star on the same banner, you'll have all the featured 4-stars at C6 *on-average.* This happened to me earlier than expected and is why I didn't pull for Yelan after acquiring C1 Hu Tao. I'll be more inclined to pull Waifu Xingqiu when she returns with a different 4-star lineup.
@@mehmeh_ I don't want to give away too many specifics here: It's a part-time job and my first ever true job IRL! I'm still living with a working family, so my personal income is more than enough to cover the rate I intend to spend it. I've been recording every single 5-star milestone and transaction I achieve/make in Genshin via spreadsheet. I've also done some interesting financial calculations in the file to determine the average and maximum cost of something on a limited banner and what I call, "The Whale Boarder" which is *$421 USD/year* (excluding minor intentional fees). Spending beyond the six initial 2x Genesis Crystal packs IS approaching whale territory. Just because I am now making a good amount of money to spare doesn't mean that I will stop trying to critique this game and call out times when HoYoverse gets excessively greedy/exploitive, like what they appear to be doing to 3.5's character banners and how they've been treating Dehya, even if they don't directly affect me personally. *"Don't settle for less.

I’ve wanted Homa every Hu Tao banner but always got a different weapon when I tried for it so I decided this time around I wouldn’t waste my primogems trying to get it. When I get primos I convert them to Intertwined Fates because I like seeing how many wishes I have saved up more than seeing how many primos I have. I got the primos from the event and bought my fates which landed me at 71 intertwined fates and I’m weird so I wanted it to be a round 70. I dropped the single pull on the weapon banner. I got Homa. At 6 pity.
4pc CW is ideal though she doesn't lose that much from 2pc CW, 2pc any of the 80 EM sets if the substats are better. 4pc Shiminawa's is also solid but I would only recommend it if you are running her with a shield since you will likely only have your burst every other rotation. Not an issue if you can one cycle content but in longer fights it can leave you rather fragile. Since you have Homa I 100% recommend an EM sands. It will basically always be more damage than an HP sands with Homa.
Bruh. I lost 5 fkin 50/50 in a row and half times I had to go to the hard pity as well. Every time I see you guys my favorite youtubers getting what I want so easily I feel so much pain I hate it.
Genshin is literally a pyramid scheme for this man. He makes money from planting the game, but ends up having to spend money multiple times for the content he needs to make money off of the game.
the "if I do x and y then I pull" content is the most burnt out thing I have ever seen in the genshin community. Like you said, forcing content because you don't know what to do in the game that's why I don't watch youtubers like Tuonto and stuff like that anymore
have fun w/ hu tao, and get ayaka on your first wish! im going for her as well with like 2 wishes to my name, altho ig im going to have the 20 or so archon quest free wishes as well? may all ayaka, shenhe, dehya, and cyno wanters become ayaka, shenhe, dehya, and cyno havers! also, if i have any wishes left after ayaka (or whoever i lose the 50/50 to lol), do i try pulling on the weapon banner or no? i know its a scam, but id be happy with either of the 5*s (on the second phase), and i want weapon upgrades for my characters, plus we're going to have mistsplitter on the weapon banner, and i use a LOT of sword characters... ah who am i kidding, im just typing this to convince myself at this point lol
@@brokeboi2026 yea thats prob the best course of action and the next banners will probably be released by the time i get a 5* on character banner, so thats what ill prob do lol
Sure is a good thing a lot of bow characters have kits that don’t actually require aiming or else we’d never know peace 😅 Even if you don’t have Childe, Yoimiya, or Yelan, surely you at least have a Fischl right? She’s pretty much just an Oz bot and Aqua 2nd passive applies off-field. And when the Wenut eventually comes to Abyss or the flying ruin monster ascends, you can have her ready for when you’re actually forced to use the aiming mechanic. Also in the off chance you mean can’t aim as in “literally my mouse doesn’t move in aim mode I can only use WASD,” I’d rewindow the game smaller until it does move then readjust your actual PC to those aspect ratios. It’s what I had to do with my potato doesn’t even have a dedicated graphics card laptop, and now my inability to aim only comes from skill issue 👍
The greatest luck I've ever had on genshin to this day was getting hu tao within 15 single summons cause she was guaranteed but I wasn't anywhere near pity and the very first multi I did in 2.3 after gave me eula
Thats exactly what happened to me this banner, and my wallet felt it. Well its ok, i will assume its my payback for wininng 7 50/50s before this banner...
2:49 bruh I got hu Tao there too at like 37 pity and I won 50 50 she was my first 5 star 6:17 actually a very good spear allows you to spine a lot more with hu because of the attack speed buff btw yes I have it on her.

I love how he says I never swipe 💳 😌 but you still hear the swipe swipe noises T~T . RIP Javas wallet 😪
i got staff of homa too today and i put it on my xiao which i got recently and he does big dmg

I mean normal wishing videos are pretty common, but in java's case it almost feels illegal
I was there for like 4hrs wondering how he could make that into a video, and he did.
I just realized how lucky I was getting Hu Tao and the Staff of Homa as a F2P with 40 wishes...TwT
Me too getting Homa at 4, but I used ovet 100 wishes for her herself
I somehow got c3 in 100 wishes, I do have a homa as well but I don’t remember if i spent money on it 😅
I got c6 hutao and r5 homa in one 10 pull and I'm f2p.
I pulled a qiqi~

@Aster AAT 90 PITYYYY😭
Best artifacts for Hu Tao are crimson or Shime but gilded is pretty decent on her too if you have good sub stats

went from no hu tao to C1 + Homa in 140 pulls. Hoyo saw that I lost all my 50/50 before this and decided to be kind this time.
Then why aren't they kind to huh i lost my 50/50s as well and im f2p if qiqi didn't came home i would have c1 hu tao by now...T-T
this is exactly what happened to me, except I got c1 + homa in around 90 pulls
@@SolSaR0903 qiqi was running away from hutao, hutao will come next chasing after qiqi
That timing is impeccable though 😆
11:44 Java: Goodbye, LUPs!
Hu Tao: Sayonara!
*flashbacks* (if you know, you know)
props to the Ad intro. honestly the most creative transition to the sponsor i’ve seen.
the vtuber looked traumatised lol
I love how the first pull on the weapon banner was one letter away from Homa.
me:ohh a Java video also me:i watched this stream start to finish
When being f2p doesn’t give you your Hu tao and Homa, so you have to join the dark side.
You know the rules and so do i

I got an opera gx ad during your opera gx ad . . . to quote the traveller: is this a sign from this world?
i already use opera gx but you make the ads always so entertaining that i cant skip it lmao
alternate title: java finally gives in to his gambling additction and gets poor
Wishing is so satisfying
is there anyone else other than me who's watching his old vids cause you watched all the new???
Hereee
1:56 you can do that with literally every browser. even chrome has it.
I can officially say I was in a java video and I'm happy about it
wow it went from if i blank i pull to just pull
1:45 "Profile 34" ayo
I got Hu Tao cause I was watching your video,. THANK YOU! :)
No but I spent 20 minutes trying to pause to see what he been searching and dam he has good taste for things to sleep to
this makes me want to cry as i saved up over 100 wishes just to get a qiqi, hu tao and then a jean sob
me when i get 160 primos

That is a nice bar. I don't often get a chance to appreciate it so much :P
he ain't spending he's just sweeping...the floor
2:42 give me right now Beidou doesn't want to come home for me even after giving her my best artifacts, weapon, and triple crown
On your first ten pull on the weapon banner you got a Staff of T-homa

why is opera gx in love with you damn
