So turns out, there's another interesting playstyle you can go for with Electro Traveler, which I wasn't aware of! You can check this quick video out by Furu here th-cam.com/video/OxJubpRM8A8/w-d-xo.html
There is also the other possibility. Hes meant for a character that has not come out yet and is like half a year away. A few 4 stars had that happen to them
I really wanna know if he's good with Dori or not to be honest. If you build dori into full Exile's artifact set just the biggest dori battery you could possibly make and see if that improves his DPS
not everyone already has sumeru characters built, i started in 1.0 and just built my first dendro (tighnari) a few months ago even though i got him on release because building other characters and maxing them is more important to me. im just now starting on my nahida and i got her on release too. i dont even have one fontaine character built yet.
@@CropCeruse All i am saying is , intead of making this game more complex with its easy to play mechanics they can implement proper scaling and playstyle intead of all this shit
@@Nallu_Swami I respect your opinion, but sometimes having unique gameplays make characters standalone unique compared to the rest, they don't have to hit like aeroplanes or trucks but at least they're fun that's cool.
There's a team that actually works really well with Sethos and it involves the Electro Traveler. Electro Traveler can actively replenish Sethos' energy while off-field with the help of their burst. Sethos 4 charge shot restriction only applies to his level 2 charge shot. It does not apply to his level 1 charge shot. Meaning, you actually dish out more damage if you spam level 1 shots, which only costs half as much energy. Nitro (The Amber Main guy) did 10 charge level one shots of 50K damage each. Which actually puts his total damage output to 500,000 from 10 level 1 shots as opposed to 360,000 from 4 level 2 shots. Its also worth noting that charge level 2 cannot hit weakspots, but level 1 can. Charge level 1 also has no ICD
@@Who14567 Well, have a look at n1tr0t0m with a "Machine Gun Sethos" build and Electro Traveler. If its really not that much slower, then I don't think its a huge dps loss. + you can put fischl on the other floor instead.
Had barely any wishes but REALLY wanted him and managed to snag a single copy, i'm so happy I love his design and his playstyle is so cool and characters that are fun in exploration are always a plus.
Meanwhile, doing a couple pulls to get him only netted me a Clorinde. thereby fucking up the saved pulls I've been saving for a wrioslethy rerun. And then I get sethos after couple more pulls. Thanks sethos 😒
having a 3 star weapon outperform a lot of of 4-star and 5-star weapons is already really great for a character. He actually would've been kinda decent if we can aim cancel in his burst state, but that would've make him a bit hard/sweaty to use. Though i know some people are crazy enough to learn machine-gun gorou 😂 (which is way harder than the n2 aim-cancel)
this is something special in genshin that i did not realize was this important until i played wuwa. in wuwa, the weapon banners are "better" than in genshin, but holy crap they better be, because anything that's not a 5 star absolutely suck donkey lolipop. you either get the 5 star weapon or you have an extremely crippled character. it was never the case in genshin. four star weapons with refinement can match unrefined 5 stars, and sometimes even 3 star wepons are good.
@@bellamoon5861to be fair, quicken doesn’t necessarily need to have Fischl levels of electro application, which is where the flex spot comes in if there isn’t enough anyways. By constantly swapping between Sethos and Tighnari, you still continue to apply the electro and Dendro elements to maintain the quicken aura
@@reyesle6709 tighnari has no ICD so he should constantly be proccing spread. you have to have constant electro app for quicken or it defeats the point. im not gonna spread once every blue moon when i can just use yae instead and spread all my charge attacks. and it disrupts your rotation to constantly swap between the two.
Amusingly, Electro Traveler is one of Sethos' best supports. Each talisman from EMC's skill gives Sethos just just enough energy for another level 1 charge shot to get up to 12 Level 1 Charge Shots. You can even abuse quick charge mechanics to spam his Level 1 Charge Shot in rapid succession. And here's the fun part, his Level 1 Charge Shot DOES NOT have ICD so he can proc Aggravate with every shot. He quite literally doesn't ever need to use his Burst once you master the quick charge shots. A team of Sethos, EMC, Kirara, and Nahida is a solid Aggravate team for him.
@@rekt6641 In theory, Childe can be either built for charge attack sniping, where repeatedly hitting the same enemy triggers his mark on them to do small AoE hydro explosions, or as a melee burst damage dealer by using his skill and getting close and personal.

@@Tuffyimpact At the moment I am using C6 fischl, C0 Nahida, and C0 Baizhu. It is probably loosing a lot of DPS because of Baizhu but I love him so I had to add him to the team.
The moment i touched WuWa and fought lvl 120 enemies with a lvl 40 character i had so much fun That was the awakening i needed to keep my motivation to follow my "screw the meta" mindset. Some characters like Kaveh and Sethos are just too fun to pass on. And if i tickle the enemy, good. Ill tickle it to death. Ill build abyss teams when im in the mood because i have the characters for it anyways, but for now im having fun thanks for this video. some meta playstyles just feel boring to me and im glad i stumbled upon this to keep me motivated.
Thanks for the explanation, I got him but couldn’t figure out how to play him (charged shot playstyle does not work for me on console, kept getting hit before charged shots were ready). Luckily, I already gave him Tighnari’s Slingshot that I recently made!
Finally someone who isnt just saying" sethos is bad"😭. I love this dual playstyle aspect, tbh i hope hoyo does more like this in the future. That way you wont be skipping banners just bcuz they are Dps but you have a bunch of dps already. Please genshin gods, keep making fun characters👏
If I remember his 2nd charge atk scales on both EM and atk which can be raised by lvling his normal atk in addition to his A2 so his c3 has kind of value still in quick charge atk playstyle. But overall thank you for this guide, pretty refreshing to see a 4* dps character that does not scale better/insane on c6, c2 is all you need
A few things: 1. R5 scion of the blazing sun is a lot better than slingshot (if you get the battle pass. I understand not everyone does or even goes R5), especially since his charge attack pierces and can apply that bonus to every target pierced and the bonus last and recharges, funnily enough, every 10 seconds. 2. If you intend to use his CA and skill often, Atk is still important, as they will use his Atk multiplier + EM on top. Atk only doesn’t apply to his burst, which is a conversion 3. Dori is also very good with him as the constant stream of energy allows him to utilize both play styles at the same time. 4. Hyperbloom is crazy, as he can process blooms at will. Since he can’t use yelan or xingqui, his best bet is Furina. As for dendro, either nahida for dmg or Baizhu for safety. The double heals/shield + prototype Amber actually works pretty well for him. Then either Dori if you went nahida or ET if you went Baizhu. It’s actually really powerful, and makes his dmg and uptime unusually high for a 4 star.
5. It's better to cancel his last normal attack by dashing while in burst mode because of how slow it is. If you dash cancel there's a big dps increase
Me personally Sethos has become my favorite characters in my character list so far (Just started) and he actually is pretty useful when enemies are wet or burning (I dont have that grass thing yet).
A little PSA, If you're not as worried about the grouping potential, swap Kazuha out for Sucrose. The EM boost she will give to Sethos AND Nahida will provide you more damage than Kazuha's Elemental damage boost. Unless of course you have Kazuha at c2, which is a different story. And if there isn't a specific reason you're ysing Dori, C6 Diona provides an additional 200 EM for you to play with, as well as a shield for an added layer of comfort.👍
@@Blackoutdmc Dori is one of the few electro characters that can allow Kazuha to infuse electro through Nahida dendro app through the lamp's electro self-application
Eyy, a fellow Dori enjoyer. Cheers. In the case where Venti becomes relevant in the abyss again, I think he might be a better Anemo assist than Kazuha since he displaces enemies away from Sethos rather than towards him, allows his shots to hit multiple enemies easier, and also refunding even more energy to both him and Dori
The main problem I find with the game is the sheer amout of repeated 4 stars we get from banner , not to mention weapons from the limited charachter banners all of which are R5 and beyond. There should be a rule that no 4 star is dropped in a succesion , that way it would be possible to get all the 4 stars we actually desire .
I got sethos c4 and he has such a fun and unique kits. Surprisingly strong as a 4* dps tho in my opinion, running 4pc WT and R2 TFGM rn. I love when on burst mode he is electro yoimiya but when on CA mode he got that piercing CA even tho it lacks aoe as long as u line up the enemies it kinda works just fine.
I do really like that he has 2 playstyles, AND that both perform similarly and use the same built. I didn’t even realise his burst counted as ca lmaaoo I’ve been using him with lyney’s weapon, 4p wanderers and he’s pretty alright lol it’s kindof a shame rust won’t work tho XD ig yoimiya can keep it for now I’m not sure the great magic bow, amos or slingshot would better tho, but I might lvl up my sling and test some more lol
Oh, the horror! Oh, the humanity! And Nathlan is going to be even harder, with Lv81 Hilichurls. How can the average player without C6 Neuvillette keep up with this?
I'd say his best weapon is sacrificial bow. It allows him to cast elemental skill twice, which generates 24 energy on it's own, without considering particles generated.
As someone who was somehow blessed with Refinement 3 Hunter’s path, I see this as an absolute win (As a cruel joke I also got C2 tighnari rather than Chlorinde like I wanted. However, out of ANY standard 5 star, I wanted him most, so idk, it’s just a bumper patch for hunters path users I guess XD)
Sethos at least isn't like the other male 4 stars that suffer from underwhelming kits. He looks like he will be a pretty good character if built right. Though, can't say he will be the best at what he does in the role he is given, those who really like the character aren't going to be too disappointed leveling him up as their damage dealer.
this guy looks kinda lame. using furry ear dendo dude or fiscl is MUCH simpler. too complicated for what he can do, and his slot already has a better simpler unit.
Good thing we don't pull new characters for simpler builds. I am tired of the OG 4 stars. Technically no one matters outside of the fontaine 5 star hyper carries, but that ain't stopping me lol. We can already sweep the abyss with trash units. Why not have some fun?@@simonmaduxx6777
@@Anime1999_lol when it takes paragraphs and paragraphs to explain the kit and the usability of a character which hoyo loves to do, you're doing it wrong For some reason people think that complicated play styles means that it's better. If there's already better units, then a complicated playstyle makes it a wide bother
@@simonmaduxx6777 i mean the video is just saying that its a "4" star dps and Ur telling me thignari is simpler which is a Dendro "5" star. Sethos is much more fun than thignari or any other bow character i can tell that, and it has many option's to go for which makes it funnier And yeah we aint playin this game for money or something to just make the game easy and beat it, Having hard time/hard Units makes the game wayy more fun and no one thinks that complicated play styles is better, Its WAYY funnier.
Another reason to have Nahida! Honestly , Zhong Lee has been getting good partners also , with all new character that use bond of life like Arlechino and Clorinde.
Sethos is such an interesting character to play around with. But.... My only gripe about him so far is that his Piercing shot can not do what a bow character can normally do. Which is stun enemies when you hit their weak point, aka, the robot enemies.
i love this kit currently using him on Thundering Fury to skill during his burst, the extra flat energy gives me a few charged shots after his burst ends.
i play him with Fischl, Nahida and Baizhu (or I replace Fischl with Furina with Favonius Sword for hyperbloom). When the 4 enhanced charge attacks are gone, i set up with the other three and swap into a normal attack playstyle with his ult. his enchanged charge attacks are back most of the time when that's done so its just rinse and repeat.
Sethos kinda just feels like electro tighnari in a way. He’s a bow that relies on having an ability that charges his charged shots almost instantly and scales on em.
He looks fun to use and I’d love to play him. I’ll have to see whether or not he appears on any future banners I’ll be interested in (since I can’t try getting him now.)
I wanted to leave a like cause' the video was good quality, but then I heard that Xinyan slander and I didn't feel like tanking it. Still had great advice though!
I said it before, and I say it again. If the only place where character can be described as "bad" is spiral abyss. Then they are bad only for one hour in 2 weeks, that's why people should stop b*tching and let others enjoy staff.
Spiral Abyss is the only content to showcase or test certain characters capabilities. Of course open world is irrelevant, anyone work, as long as it's not against an immune opponents.
@@redace4821 I have heard some person say that Abyss is the only thing that matters in Genshin.... and that person hated the game xD. Conclusion is that if you want to have a challenge in GI, you either make it yourself, (like Nuzlocke in pokemon games) or try another game entirely.
I think that you're supposed to have enough energy recharge that after you use your burst and you're burst is still on cooldown but you have max energy, then you use the charged shots. Making Elegy also one of his good weapons.
genshin team knew that they dont need to make a great 4 star coz their low standard fans gonna simp & glaze it in every ways possible no matter how trash it is
Theyre most likely scared to make 1.0 supports again so they want to balance it out with cons but its just dumb and the characters arent even as good when c6
Okay, hear me out, Sethos, Tighnari semi quick swap team, I'd love to try it but I don't have Tighnari and I'm skipping this banner, if anyone tried it, tell me if it's any good
hot take: his skill design is way better than neuvillette's. neuvillette's boring af but strong. if this guy was as strong, he'd be a way better character imo. kinda cool, i'll build him when i run out of stuff to do again. Ps: wouldn't sucrose be better than kazuha for him?
I would say Faruzan is good without constellations but is broken with C6 (source: was without C6 for like a year or so before nabbing her in wanderer rerun)
Pls try out a team with both clorinde and sethos. They both have low uptime and electro resonance for energy. Sethos can trigger reactions for clorinde as well. Pls 🙏
ngl the staying still on charge lvl 2 IS a bit annoying, but they probably did it like that bc of the different stance. all other short male bow users hold their bows in that flat facing way, only sethos holds it differently (at lvl 2 anyway) so they probably didn’t wanna do extra riggging to move around like that lol
Anyone else feeling cheated that Sethos was presented as this badass polearm user in the Cyno quest and epic fight cutscene…and then we get this random Pew-Pew bow guy?
Dang, even after winning and getting Clorinde after 80 pulls, Sethos didn't want to come, until I spend another 10 more. Guess he'll be C0 until I get him randomly in the future pulls.
Maybe it’s cuz I have a low AR but I also have a higher leveled genshin acc with yelan and hu tao and I think he’s pretty good tbh also one of my fav playstyles as well
Seems like Sethos is the 2nd best 4* main DPS, albeit an distant 2nd to Gaming, who can actually compete with 5* characters. At least he seems slightly better than C6 Noelle (now the 3rd best 4* main DPS). I really wish Sethos was debuting on the second banner so he wouldn't be getting overshadowed by Clorinde.
He actually feels like a character that you want to use in 4 player co-op where the single player can focus on just hitting things from the outskirts. Not a bad thing honestly.
Sadly, i did not get him, i wanted to try to snag a copy but no luck, i did accidently get a Tighnari at like 30 pity, which was surprising but now i'm guaranteed to get Emilie so that's nice.
Hes such a new unique character m soo confused bout him, i think we will be getting more new chars in natlan with complex playstyles like sethos but ig… maybe ill build him?

Can still help, since usually the first character that can find materials is a 5 star like Klee, tighnari, lyney ect.

He sounds pretty versatile, for open world exploration anyway. Charge attacks for tanky enemies, burst mode for groups of enemies
And he's rlly useful to farm sumeru local specialties if you don't have Tighnari

I do really like that he has 2 playstyles, AND that both perform similarly and use the same built. I didn’t even realise his burst counted as ca lmaaoo
I’ve been using him with lyney’s weapon, 4p wanderers and he’s pretty alright lol
it’s kindof a shame rust won’t work tho XD ig yoimiya can keep it for now
I’m not sure the great magic bow, amos or slingshot would better tho, but I might lvl up my sling and test some more lol
guys if sethos doesnt do enough damage, how are we gonna kill the level 80 hilichurl in front of the common chest??
Oh, the horror! Oh, the humanity! And Nathlan is going to be even harder, with Lv81 Hilichurls. How can the average player without C6 Neuvillette keep up with this?
@@Horvath_Gabor Simple: level 100 characters
electro charged best blessing ever just use sethoss skill and hit ‘em with any hydro character 😍
I'd say his best weapon is sacrificial bow. It allows him to cast elemental skill twice, which generates 24 energy on it's own, without considering particles generated.
I saw Chinise videos him as DPS unit with Sara. Massive dos if you invest on him. Combine with Nahida and Kazuha for EM.
As someone who was somehow blessed with Refinement 3 Hunter’s path, I see this as an absolute win
(As a cruel joke I also got C2 tighnari rather than Chlorinde like I wanted. However, out of ANY standard 5 star, I wanted him most, so idk, it’s just a bumper patch for hunters path users I guess XD)
sounds fun to play, like you're actually doing something instead of just spamming.
I like him already. I use the Scion of the Blazing Zun weapon for him :) and I have him in a spread party
Sethos at least isn't like the other male 4 stars that suffer from underwhelming kits.
He looks like he will be a pretty good character if built right. Though, can't say he will be the best at what he does in the role he is given, those who really like the character aren't going to be too disappointed leveling him up as their damage dealer.
this guy looks kinda lame. using furry ear dendo dude or fiscl is MUCH simpler.
too complicated for what he can do, and his slot already has a better simpler unit.
Good thing we don't pull new characters for simpler builds. I am tired of the OG 4 stars. Technically no one matters outside of the fontaine 5 star hyper carries, but that ain't stopping me lol. We can already sweep the abyss with trash units. Why not have some fun?@@simonmaduxx6777
@@simonmaduxx6777u straight going for the easy stuff, thats lame.
@@Anime1999_lol when it takes paragraphs and paragraphs to explain the kit and the usability of a character which hoyo loves to do, you're doing it wrong
For some reason people think that complicated play styles means that it's better. If there's already better units, then a complicated playstyle makes it a wide bother
@@simonmaduxx6777 i mean the video is just saying that its a "4" star dps and Ur telling me thignari is simpler which is a Dendro "5" star. Sethos is much more fun than thignari or any other bow character i can tell that, and it has many option's to go for which makes it funnier And yeah we aint playin this game for money or something to just make the game easy and beat it, Having hard time/hard Units makes the game wayy more fun and no one thinks that complicated play styles is better, Its WAYY funnier.
Another reason to have Nahida! Honestly , Zhong Lee has been getting good partners also , with all new character that use bond of life like Arlechino and Clorinde.
Sethos is such an interesting character to play around with. But.... My only gripe about him so far is that his Piercing shot can not do what a bow character can normally do. Which is stun enemies when you hit their weak point, aka, the robot enemies.
This may be one of them characters who will work with Nathan characters like Kuki shining was with dendro
I 36-starred with him at C0 with a Quickbloom team, I don't understand what the hulabaloo is all about
for the 4 charge shot playstyle a feel a little bit of ER on him would be good, so that he doesn't run out of energy during the charges
I plan to use Sethos together with Venti.
Thanks for this channel, this channel has been recommended my vidio thanks a lot🙏
Sethos, fischl, kazu, baizhu.
(Almost) immortal team with great damage against bosses or few elites
i love this kit
currently using him on Thundering Fury to skill during his burst, the extra flat energy gives me a few charged shots after his burst ends.
Thank you for this, it's very helpful
i play him with Fischl, Nahida and Baizhu (or I replace Fischl with Furina with Favonius Sword for hyperbloom). When the 4 enhanced charge attacks are gone, i set up with the other three and swap into a normal attack playstyle with his ult. his enchanged charge attacks are back most of the time when that's done so its just rinse and repeat.
i swear that energy take away will be a gimmik in natlan
Maybe the Ode to Resurrection was always about the Shimenawa Artifact set. Hoyo writers cooking fr
Sethos kinda just feels like electro tighnari in a way. He’s a bow that relies on having an ability that charges his charged shots almost instantly and scales on em.
That’s not a bad thing though, as I’m a tighnari main, so I can appreciate having more characters that play like that
He looks fun to use and I’d love to play him. I’ll have to see whether or not he appears on any future banners I’ll be interested in (since I can’t try getting him now.)
I wanted to leave a like cause' the video was good quality, but then I heard that Xinyan slander and I didn't feel like tanking it. Still had great advice though!
Let's see how long and often Sethos shows up in multiplayer ....
I just got Sethos today from the standard banner. I'm gonna try to pair him with Tighnari, Zhongli and Fischl.😅
It's funny that you mention yoimiya because her artifact set works completely against his playstyle
I played woth him sometimes very later now with his love Lyney and along with that, overloading system done many wonders.
I said it before, and I say it again. If the only place where character can be described as "bad" is spiral abyss. Then they are bad only for one hour in 2 weeks, that's why people should stop b*tching and let others enjoy staff.
Spiral Abyss is the only content to showcase or test certain characters capabilities.
Of course open world is irrelevant, anyone work, as long as it's not against an immune opponents.
@@redace4821 I have heard some person say that Abyss is the only thing that matters in Genshin.... and that person hated the game xD.
Conclusion is that if you want to have a challenge in GI, you either make it yourself, (like Nuzlocke in pokemon games) or try another game entirely.
I think that you're supposed to have enough energy recharge that after you use your burst and you're burst is still on cooldown but you have max energy, then you use the charged shots. Making Elegy also one of his good weapons.
you have to play him as burst dps, he turns into electro yoimiya with simmilar damage as her (and attacks maybe even faster than her)
I can see a 5 star sethos comming about soon. Similar to how heizou came first and now, wriothesley is similar to him.
His damage is really nice!!
As a ganyu main, charge attack time I can relate, his charge attack animation is cool btw 😅🔥
Genshin always does this with new 4 star characters, either the character is a support that NEEDS to be c6, or is a DPS that lacks damage...
genshin team knew that they dont need to make a great 4 star coz their low standard fans gonna simp & glaze it in every ways possible no matter how trash it is
Theyre most likely scared to make 1.0 supports again so they want to balance it out with cons but its just dumb and the characters arent even as good when c6
Sethos doesn't lack damage, neither does Gaming simply because they have access to pretty good teammates
@@kison7715 Agreed. It's a complete joke at this point lol
@@salcedsThat said more about the teammate than the carry.
Yaoyao fr is one of the best 4 stars, she helped me alot in early game so much i get her c6 and lv 90
Okay, hear me out, Sethos, Tighnari semi quick swap team, I'd love to try it but I don't have Tighnari and I'm skipping this banner, if anyone tried it, tell me if it's any good
Sounds like a fun team, I’ll steal it LMAOO
IF I ACTUALLY GET A FUCKING SETHOS, I'll try this team! Him, tighnari, nahida and fish/sucrose sounds fun
i think he actually looks pretty fun for overworld… charge attack for overworld, burst for domains and abyss maybe?
hot take: his skill design is way better than neuvillette's. neuvillette's boring af but strong. if this guy was as strong, he'd be a way better character imo. kinda cool, i'll build him when i run out of stuff to do again.
Ps: wouldn't sucrose be better than kazuha for him?
I build him with EM weapons and EM artifacts so far he is working pretty good for me
His concept overpowered his kit lol 😂
I actually enjoy 4* from Hoyo a lot, they are more niche and interesting in gameplay sometimes, even in design.
He is soo god when you try him out and when you got it its somehow below than what you expect
I really wanna go around and open world 1 shot with that charged attack lol.
I would say Faruzan is good without constellations but is broken with C6 (source: was without C6 for like a year or so before nabbing her in wanderer rerun)
Normal attack includes charged attack so that passive is actuallt useful if we're talking dmg
He means that the talent increases his atk scaling but youre not gonna build atk on him so its not cery useful
And you know what? We can finally use that red stone material from sumeru dessert to ascend him
Pls try out a team with both clorinde and sethos. They both have low uptime and electro resonance for energy. Sethos can trigger reactions for clorinde as well. Pls 🙏
a challenging character to use... kinda like electro tighnari but a shorter window of maximum DPS output
ngl the staying still on charge lvl 2 IS a bit annoying, but they probably did it like that bc of the different stance. all other short male bow users hold their bows in that flat facing way, only sethos holds it differently (at lvl 2 anyway) so they probably didn’t wanna do extra riggging to move around like that lol
now the question is: Slingshot or Cloudforged, which was my plan? 🤔
I feel like I need a degree to understand these characters nowadays! 😂🤓
Anyone else feeling cheated that Sethos was presented as this badass polearm user in the Cyno quest and epic fight cutscene…and then we get this random Pew-Pew bow guy?
I'm using the Windbloom Ode on him. Finally have a reason to raise it...
"Still, this begs the question
How much better he becomes with constellations?"
You should make a rap outta that!
This what cyno scaling suppose to be like alhaitham and the other, not the hybrid atk EM
Had Cyno Burst had extra EM scaling along side with Atk as well he would have been more competent than the way he is now.
'The 5 ppl watching this right now and have this weapon, use it". Bro is talking facts😂
Dang, even after winning and getting Clorinde after 80 pulls, Sethos didn't want to come, until I spend another 10 more. Guess he'll be C0 until I get him randomly in the future pulls.
I got sethos in my first 10 pull in the banner.
Im about halfway to guarentee so too risky to go for him (been waiting for Furina's rerun)
Your videos butter My biscuits thank you
Whenever I pop out his ult, I just feel like playing Yoi again lol
Voice line Chest 3 was Peak af XD
I give him the Amos' Bow. Even in this game, he is still as strong as Ayanokoji.
Here's a game, take a shot whenever you hear "Charge shot"
Maybe it’s cuz I have a low AR but I also have a higher leveled genshin acc with yelan and hu tao and I think he’s pretty good tbh also one of my fav playstyles as well
750k damage per rotation? isn't that the same amount as c0 clorinde with the craftable weapon? not bad for a c0 four star.
Seems like Sethos is the 2nd best 4* main DPS, albeit an distant 2nd to Gaming, who can actually compete with 5* characters.
At least he seems slightly better than C6 Noelle (now the 3rd best 4* main DPS).
I really wish Sethos was debuting on the second banner so he wouldn't be getting overshadowed by Clorinde.
One main reason why do you need Sethos -> Now he is the fastest hand on wild west (The fastest archer who can literally combo with charged shots)
Idk I only use Quicken teams on Tignarhi teams
Sethos will definitely pair with our favorite fontainian musket wielder Beido & Bennet
thanks for the rundown, it sucks i want him now, don’t want to pull for clorinde thoo
He actually feels like a character that you want to use in 4 player co-op where the single player can focus on just hitting things from the outskirts. Not a bad thing honestly.
Honestly pulling for this guy only because he have the same voice actor as hunter from TOH 🙂🙂
Sadly, i did not get him, i wanted to try to snag a copy but no luck, i did accidently get a Tighnari at like 30 pity, which was surprising but now i'm guaranteed to get Emilie so that's nice.
I lose 50:50 but getting this dude c2
Glad he has fresh vibe playstyle and very fun to play
Hes such a new unique character m soo confused bout him, i think we will be getting more new chars in natlan with complex playstyles like sethos but ig… maybe ill build him?
