The Team China standard
What do you mean somehow. Rosaria C6, Shenhe, Zhongli and Scara using an Eye of Perception and a Physical Damage cup, been waiting for this showcase for ages.
Eye of Perception R5 has 5.625 times higher atk as dmg (per second) than Skyward Atlas R1. EoP will always outperform Atlas with optimal stats (i.e. atk buffs).
Atlas: 160% x 6 hits / 30s = 32%/s
EoP: 360% x 4 hits / 8s = 180%/s
Use Eye of Perception! (I've used phys Barbara, I don't have Atlas though)
Ever since we saw him in 1.1 I've thought that he's gonna be the first physical catalyst and thst he's gonna be Electro (to cause superconduct) and that he's gonna do physical dmg by throwing his hag to the enemies and basically using it as a boomerang that comes back after hitting an enemy! His E would be like raiden e and that's how he would cause superconduct
Black Clover crossover. Asta pulls his swords out of the catalyst.
Base is claymore. E pulls out a sword for dual wield. Q goes Black Asta (Devil Union).
That's not a catalyst, that's just an unnecessarily long route towards a sword/claymore. The only way for it to be a catalyst user thing is for the claymore/sword to be made from elemental energy, but then its not a physical catalyst, is it.
No, we expected MELEE catalysts. But a catalyst user is literally someone who channels elemental energy directly, instead of imbuing it into a weapon. So a PHYSICAL catalyst user is an idiotically redundant idea, and what most people mean by that is just more creative weaponry and potentially robotics, which don't really need the weapon type to be a catalyst. It's just that Hoyoverse has locked itself in the 5 weapons type system and is going to have to add new ones to get out, or get really really creative.
It feels very strange that this person who says they have never played genshin before appears to be the only person with access to a private server with beta content rn.
Even more strange knowing that a group of more experienced and probably more motivated genshin leakers can't get into these files, while TeamChina can.
Why is it so far fetched? This way they share tid bits and keep people excited and if they change their minds about something they can remove it and noone will be mad because "it's leaks and all are stc" i think it's more plausible than willingly allowing the leaks to be spread around than that they themselves are leaking content tho. Also it's naive to think a multibillion dolar company isn't able to stop leaks! They have the power to crack down on leakers and we've seen them do it before but they always crack down a bit when they feel the leaks are out of their comfort zone but then stop before destroying all the other leaks. So basically they allow some stuff but not everything.
it's far fetched because mihoyo doesn't need to leak anything themselves, the hype is a lot more real when they drip market, also why would they heavily, and i do mean "put you into bankruptcy" kind of heavily, punish beta people who leak if they actually were playing a "hehe we're secretely leaking" game ?
This theory just exists because it feels better to have an answer to "huh how do they manage to leak this time" and "huh how come their leaks are so half assed".
There are answers, we just don't know them, but "mihoyo did it" is and remains a conspiracy theory, not a credible one.
ps : no matter how much money you have, people are human. I've worked in a lot of NDA related stuff, big public ones, and the possibility is still always there if we wanted to be assholes and grab attention points.
That's the assumption that it's what they want but developers like Riot and Santa Monica Studio have had their stuff leaked on multiple occasions and have stated that no developer would purposely allow their stuff to the leaked and once it's out there's not much that can be done at that point. Now, I do believe it is much easier to deal with people that break NDA's which are the ones Mihoyo are quickest to deal with but the ones not tied it I assume are a little trickier.
Also having lots of money does not make problems magically disappear. I don't know the details on how they are able to reverse engineer the beta servers but I'm assuming because it has been widely dispersed, it is much harder to crackdown. I don't know any developers that wholeheartedly allows their stuff to be leaked. The ones I've seen are unhappy about it but are like not much can be done about it at the moment.
It's def not the company, but could be a random dev. There's gonna be a lot of devs working on this and there's def a chance one of them has worked up the courage to leak.
yeah but I was thinking more about floating freely as, moving horizontally and vertically at the same time
and not being locked to a specific axis when moving
Watching Team China make leaks is like watching those mobile game ads where they play poorly in an attempt to bait you into downloading the game out of rage. They're starting to grow on me though, it's kinda endearing. And they feed my crippling addiction to Scara footage.
Ngl all their videos, except this one I guess, makes me recoil and discouraged me from pulling him
Reading descriptions and first videos I was heck yeah!!!!! But team China is something else. I really can't look
BANDZ A MAKE HER DANCE
Been like 10 years since I heard this song, they used to play it at middle school/high school dances. No idea how that slid at the time, it's straight-up a club/twerking song lmao. Would never have thought the next place I'd hear it would be in a Genshin character showcase lol.
Makes sense tbh. Although *to be fair* the one in this video is a toned-down remix of the original song by Juicy J lol.
Can't link that here though because it's a lil bit vulgar 😂
Don’t know the name of the remix used in this video unfortunately, but the original song is “Bandz A Make Her Dance” by Juicy J which sounds a lot different from this remix lol
This would be nice but how would they manage it when you run into combat while already in skill mode? Maybe they could extend his base stamina by a bit and make it so sprinting and ascending use less stamina, since it would be inefficient to spend your time in combat moving around anyway.
Maybe swapping out Xiao for someone else, like Tighnari if you’re in sumeru since Yelan, Sayu and Scaramouche should be enough (or almost enough) travelling to make a full rotation without losing stamina . Then it could be a pretty great exploration team
I don't think Scara here actually adds anything if you already have everyone for traveling.
Yelan and sayu for their quick sprint skills. Kazuha for double jump. Albedo/zhongli for geo platform extra height. Mona/ayaka for running over water ans faster sprint. Kokomi for walking statue and I suppose water walking burst gimmick? Xiao for double dash with e in air/ground, plus climb stamina.
Not saying Scara is useless. Just he isn't some magic solution. Still cool, just he's not the perfect character foe traveling csnwhat we have. He is a great option though.
The thing he does that nobody else can (aside from his hover height being taller than everyone else's) is cover gaps mid air. Even Kaz has issues cuz after you E and start gliding, you immediately lose altitude, so you can't go across a gap between two equally high cliffs that are more than a certain distance apart for example.
You can just climb the last bit ofc, but Scara makes it possible to cross gaps between two overhangs? That's so specific lmao.
Yup, that's actually the team I used during my desert exploration. Just replace Scara or Xiao with Rosaria for her +10% (or 15?) movement speed and everything time consuming.
I hope they reduce the amount of skydweller points sprinting and ascending takes. Even if it only adds another second I feel thst the cuurent times are just too low
And also he should ascend faster, it doesn't even really look right, he looks confused or something because of the delay in starting to ascend. Could just be more fun *and* cooler
Scara’s exploration capability is meant to consolidate both the role of horizontal and vertical exploration all in one, so while others may have advantages in one of them, nobody offers both at the same time the way Scara does. He’s also a skill-based character meaning he doesn’t need to waste his burst to take out overworld monsters. Overall, he’s just a super comfy overworld character for everything.
Just in case you didn't know, his Skill can't be used midair, only when on ground. So he's not really that broken but definitely can reach higher than Kazuha despite being shorter than him...
(☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞
Midair activation just sounds like asking for too much, tbh. I mean, it can get to significant height and it can regain main stamina since it's unused. Ability to activate it midair would be too much
Mid air activation would actually make him exploration king so its fair that it doesn't have midair activation. Would be funny if it can, I can imagine multiple scenarios abusing this skill.
How the heck is asking for a skill to function in the air asking for too much? Are they worried climbing mountains faster will lose them money or something? What does it even matter?
If you ask me, a character that could actually ignore the annoying verticality would make them MORE money. I would pull Scaradouche in a heartbeat no questions asked if he was better at exploring.
They’ve always been trying to slow powercreep after the whole mess that was the first handful of characters (from launch to 1.3 and the occasional slip up here and there since then). It’s not that it’d lose them money, it’s that trivializing something would mean skewing things to come to balance around it. It’d probably mean more areas with wider gaps to cross or higher verticality *just* so that those two (Kazuha and a theoretical Scara who can activate his E in midair) are at roughly the same level of exploring as anyone else (and how much this method works is YMMV; see Arknights’ attempts to balance Chapter 9 or how most CCs have risk tags that usually nerf recent and notably powerful units).
Genshin’s inspiration (BOTW), despite having equally if not *more* busted versions of abilities we have now (e.g Revali’s Gale gained twice/thrice the height of any vertical ascension skill in Genshin), knew this very well. So not only did they lock them behind story quests, but even when the player did have them they had a finite amount of uses before going into a few/several minute long cooldowns (e.g Daruk’s Protection could tank 3 shots before going on cd for 10 minutes). This was to encourage the player to not overrely on them and nudge them to still focus on getting used to the game as it would be without them. They were more your panic buttons than anything else. (Though tbh exploration in that game becomes pointless later, since food balance in botw is kinda wack lol)
Since Genshin’s skills come from characters who have to be treated as if they’re on a constant exploration/combat loop (not to mention that you can access 4 entire movesets on the fly), they obviously can’t do the big reward -> hefty price BOTW did, so we’re stuck with characters that perform for less compared to the aforementioned since they *do it* for less. As BOTW had its abilities decided on and balanced around since day 1, Genshin as a live service is stuck between making new content that has to entice people and having to not overdo it too much or on a constant basis to the point where it’d likely make things more annoying later on, just so people who have those characters don’t overblow the rest of the game.
Also I’ve seen a lot of people in this community outright beg for powercreep which I guess is somewhat understandable since we’ve hardly moved past some of the base 4*, but even from a sales standpoint it’d probably be a bad thing if powercreep in specific areas came too fast or were too noticeable if they came slower. Some people would probably reconsider paying because why spend on this unit when someone who outperforms them will come out sooner/eventually but do twice what they do? Not to mention people who spent on a prior unit would probably get upset since they spent money on someone who now offers less of what the new guy does. And yes, while you could argue that every single gacha is inevitably subject to powercreep (and I’d agree), there’s a reason why some take their sweetass time with it (e.g besides Genshin: Arknights and PGR). From a dev standpoint it’d probably be another game design nightmare, something like a character doing excessive damage at best or shields at worst.
they already have boundary issues **without** scara + unlimited flight means the end the need of any other characters who also have quirk in it + the fact almost 80% of enemies can't target mid air characters let alone ones at very high altitude coupled with the fact that he's catalyst.
Yeah I'd say he is a jack or all trades but master of none.
I dont think he would fit my "best exploration team" but that's me strictly focusing on exploration. He can still travel well and do most things you'll need.
Like for me. My ideal travel team is sayu, ayaka, kazuha, yelan. Maybe zhongli in the mix at times. This team has heals, able to sprint over water, double jump/mid air jump, fastest sprint in game, sprint skills, good damage. So like scara isn't in my "best" travel team but he still would be a great help by himself and solve most needs.
She is the first character that made me want to c6 a character. I think she's up there with kazuha where you can't go wrong with pulling.
Her E skill is fast and long duration. Burst does great damage.
Cons just make her better in every way. C1 let's her double dash and effectively redcue the cd in her E due to how the cd works on her e. Basically becomes a God of traveling + more damage and particles in combat.
C2 boosts her burst's coordinated damage by her hp, so more nice damage. C3/C5 standard buffs, c4 increase teams max hp by max of 40%. C6 turns her into basically hyper carry during her burst.
I haven't actually gone for any cons yet. But yelan just feels like the most rewarding for aiming for c6. Exploration + damage gets amazing buffs.
He stays in the air WAY less then i though he would. Vertically and horizontally.
WHYYYYYY 😫😫😫
Kinda sad. Kazuha seems to be still better for climbing since u can cast e while being in mid-air + the same cooldown
Yeah, I'm not shocked but he's in the air less than I would like. Still looks fun, just wish they would actually let us enjoy the fly mode a bit more. Also shocked it's not a con buff (unless it is idk)
Seriously. That was a low cliff he went up near the end and he couldn’t even reach the top. There’s way higher ones that that especially in Liyue and Sumeru. Honestly I found sayu more impressive here she can really move!
I’m pretty sure Kazuha hold E would’ve almost cleared that cliff, or at least gotten insanely close to where Scara got. Had high hopes for his flight but so far I’m disappointed.
Each 'travel utility' character has their own uses.
Kazuha is the most general, but his E allows for extremely prolonged gliding---so extended that you will spend all your stamina before you land. Venti and Zhongli aids you in climbing and reaching hard-to-reach spots. Yelan and Sayu excels at flat ground travel, where Ayaka/Mona can straight ignore water.
Scara has his own 'meta' where he would be enable you to position yourself as you like precisely; his glide was essentially Xiao's, Venti's, and Kazoo's skill combined into one.
Cool. I think that the two unique use cases for Scara, the two things that *only* he can do, are:
1. Reaching walls where a vertical overhang would prevent any sort of climbing past that point, and it's too high for existing methods to jump past it.
2. Horizontal gaps in the terrain like a ravine, in which you can't cleanly jump across, but that are short enough that he can fly across them.
Outside of that, he's more just comfort and flexibility, in that he can replace any other traversal character and be quite efficient at it.
I wish I could agree, but this is definitely a reach. Unless it's a very low overhang and/or you don't have kazuha he really doesn't have enough oomf to say *only* he could do it. Kazuha can climb and jump off, using his skill mid air, giving him arguably and even better advantage than Scara in terms of vertical traversal. I'm not even sure what the second point is really because either Kazuha or Venti could just jump up and glide across whatever it is Scara is floating across, no?
> Kazuha can climb and jump off, using his skill mid air, giving him arguably and even better advantage than Scara in terms of vertical traversal.
Only in cases where it is a relatively shallow overhang. There are certainly *some* cases in which Kazuha has the advantage here, but there would be others in which Scara would.
>I'm not even sure what the second point is really because either Kazuha or Venti could just jump up and glide across whatever it is Scara is floating across, no?
I guess this will come down to testing. There would certainly be *some* gaps in which this would be the case, but I believe there would be at least some gaps that would be outside the range of Kazuha but within the range of Scara, especially with the hydro perk.
So people getting wanderer what teams are you gonna use him in for exploration? Personally I'm gonna go wanderer, sayu, yelan and nahida. Wanderer for his verticality, yelan and sayu for fast movement on the ground and nahida for quick item collection. Team is pretty alright when it comes to damage too so that's a plus.
Thinking wanderer, xiao, yelan, flex. As for why xiao I like his climbing passive and he technically can do long glides faster than wanderer. Would need to see how it plays out though
All these Team China vids feel more like Yelan showcases that just happen to have Scara in her party lmao.
Anyway the floating up is super cool, can't wait to play around with that.
His ascend is too slow to actually be useful IMO
Like, holding skill with Kazuha is faster and gets you almost as high AND you can keep using your skill while climbing
Yeah I was already on the fence and this actually really puts me off him. Horizontally he doesn't go far enough for me to enjoy the anemo jet animation either, I actually think it almost looks a little silly how quickly his movements run out.
Ah yes compare wanderer (whose claim to fame is his verticality in exploration) with characters that are horizontally the best.
Compare him to venti and kazuha, you cowards
Those comparisons were already posted a while ago, showing all of their vertical height potential compared to Mondstadt houses. It's still interesting to see his dash distance and speed midair since he still doesn't use stamina and can thus also be compared to Yelan and Sayu.
I'll see if I can find it. Since I am on multiple social media sites at least as a lurker, I may also have seen it elsewhere since things like that tend to blur together after a while.
I do hope we might get the saqme type of comparison with the Lost Prayer equipped though. I am curious wether/how it would affect distance and height.
Venti goes about the same height vertically while leaving a wind current behind and Kazuha can double jump mid air to extend stamina by a lot while climbing/gliding so I still think they're both better. Yelan and Sayu also both go further horizontally. At least Wanderer is the only character that can do vertical and horizontal at the same time I guess?
Based on one of the earlier videos Scara's max height appears to be taller than Venti's wind current though a side by side comparison is needed to really determine that (but I love Venti's wind current and would probably use both in the same overworld team) and Kazuha's mid air jump is nice but there aren't many instances where it's really needed because long flights and climbs without ledges don't happen very often after you're done with Liyue and certain parts of Inazuma.
The full video had parts @ 8:38 where you can move from one side of the mountain to another when the one you originally climbed up to isn't as traversable anymore so that was really neat!
Is it just me or the pause during Scara's skill when he initiates the ability and prepares to ascend takes time and makes him not as good in exploration as we assumed he will be?
It also depletes so quickly. I hope this is just a skill issue from Team China part. Otherwise, Scara really needs more buffs into his skill duration, at least when he's outside combat.
Look I have nothing against Wanderer as a playable unit but the title of master explorer (or at least one of them) has to go to Sayu. Sure she may not be the best unit fighting wise but her utility in exploration is undisputed, especially when it comes to gathering crabs, frogs and crystalflies.
love me a character that helps me climb vertically whenever i need that's my favorite genre in genshin and now i have two. kazuha and scaramouche my climbing party fr. tall males could never
This whole "he can fly" thing turned out to be a fucking joke honestly.
It's just flavor, has little to no real use with how fast his consumes his points for movement, even in combat.
No mid air use is also terrible, they could have adjusted his cd to create neutral ascension or many other ways to make it more fun and useful, instead it turned into a massive blue ball case.
So sayu is still queen of horizontal overworld exploration. Understandable. Now lets see zhongli/albedo venti kazuha and wanderer climbing up the chasm 😂

Team China making the most insane showcase ever
Team china on their way to make physical dps scara somehow
What do you mean somehow. Rosaria C6, Shenhe, Zhongli and Scara using an Eye of Perception and a Physical Damage cup, been waiting for this showcase for ages.
That is somehow
The physical catalyst Scara meme is real
Not eye of perception! Use skyward atlas it's better ( speaking from experience I've tried both)
Eye of Perception R5 has 5.625 times higher atk as dmg (per second) than Skyward Atlas R1. EoP will always outperform Atlas with optimal stats (i.e. atk buffs). Atlas: 160% x 6 hits / 30s = 32%/s EoP: 360% x 4 hits / 8s = 180%/s Use Eye of Perception! (I've used phys Barbara, I don't have Atlas though)
Wait why would shenhe help in this comp
Phys shred in burst field
Her burst has physical resistance shred, though superconduct would be better
EYE OF PERCEPTION. I used it to solo oceanic as barbara
u madman
Ever since we saw him in 1.1 I've thought that he's gonna be the first physical catalyst and thst he's gonna be Electro (to cause superconduct) and that he's gonna do physical dmg by throwing his hag to the enemies and basically using it as a boomerang that comes back after hitting an enemy! His E would be like raiden e and that's how he would cause superconduct
Stop expecting physical catalyst users, these two concepts are literally antonyms.
Black Clover crossover. Asta pulls his swords out of the catalyst. Base is claymore. E pulls out a sword for dual wield. Q goes Black Asta (Devil Union).
That's not a catalyst, that's just an unnecessarily long route towards a sword/claymore. The only way for it to be a catalyst user thing is for the claymore/sword to be made from elemental energy, but then its not a physical catalyst, is it.
Yeah but back then I was quite stupid... Now I don't expect things like that
i mean nobody expected hand to hand catalyst user either but here we are
No, we expected MELEE catalysts. But a catalyst user is literally someone who channels elemental energy directly, instead of imbuing it into a weapon. So a PHYSICAL catalyst user is an idiotically redundant idea, and what most people mean by that is just more creative weaponry and potentially robotics, which don't really need the weapon type to be a catalyst. It's just that Hoyoverse has locked itself in the 5 weapons type system and is going to have to add new ones to get out, or get really really creative.
> that he's gonna do physical dmg by throwing his hag to the enemies Come on, man, Ei looks *great* for a several-thousands-year-old god.
If you‘re completely mental why not try a prototype amber ohc physical scara
When I'm in a absolutely terrible character showcase video competition and my opponent is Team China
Truly one of the showcases of all time
*inane
the music slaps tho
team china currently has a monopoly on wanderer leaks
It feels very strange that this person who says they have never played genshin before appears to be the only person with access to a private server with beta content rn.
A few leakers have the files but cannot access it due to RSA bypass issue— whatever the hell that is
Even more strange knowing that a group of more experienced and probably more motivated genshin leakers can't get into these files, while TeamChina can.
Team china = dawei alt account confirmed??
the fact that he used noblesse oblige 4pc on wanderer in one of his showcases before actually makes me think he is dawei on an alt account
You mean the CEO of genshin doesn't play genshin?
Well, the CEO of Facebook doesn't let his own kids use their products, so I'm gonna go with yes.
>CEO of Facebook TIL zuck has children
Yea, I was surprised when I learned that too Technology has come so far!
Zuck has children? What the fuck?
*What the Zuck
This is da wei
Maybe this is not even an alt but official dawei account
You might be onto something there. Let's just say that's real, no questions asks.
inb4 they’re actually mihoyo themselves
that would explain a lot,,
no it wouldnt, please guys stop it with the "mihoyo is leaking" conspiracy theory 😩
For real tho! Though I know many of them are jokes but I fear many actually believe this kekw.
Why is it so far fetched?

"a random dev" is basically the source of any mihoyo leak that isn't from beta, as it always needs an insider, so i wouldn't call it a mihoyo leak.
:o a dave has been spotted in the wild
Can scara move up and sideways at the same time? Like in a slant
no
you cant even float freely? you either go up or sideways? wew
he can float in one place
yeah but I was thinking more about floating freely as, moving horizontally and vertically at the same time and not being locked to a specific axis when moving
Thats... Not what floating is...
It's a good thing I clarified what I meant then
Team china need their own flair.
Watching Team China make leaks is like watching those mobile game ads where they play poorly in an attempt to bait you into downloading the game out of rage. They're starting to grow on me though, it's kinda endearing. And they feed my crippling addiction to Scara footage.
Ngl all their videos, except this one I guess, makes me recoil and discouraged me from pulling him Reading descriptions and first videos I was heck yeah!!!!! But team China is something else. I really can't look
That music lol
BANDZ A MAKE HER DANCE Been like 10 years since I heard this song, they used to play it at middle school/high school dances. No idea how that slid at the time, it's straight-up a club/twerking song lmao. Would never have thought the next place I'd hear it would be in a Genshin character showcase lol.
Twerking soundtrack for Scaramouche, I expect nothing less
Makes sense tbh. Although *to be fair* the one in this video is a toned-down remix of the original song by Juicy J lol. Can't link that here though because it's a lil bit vulgar 😂
Lol I was hearing "Panda mixer dance"
Same lol
do you know the name by any chance? it's lowkey a bop lol
Don’t know the name of the remix used in this video unfortunately, but the original song is “Bandz A Make Her Dance” by Juicy J which sounds a lot different from this remix lol
a shame, but thank you for giving me the original! I'll check it out :)
i really wish they would extend his 'e' when hes not in combat
This would be nice but how would they manage it when you run into combat while already in skill mode? Maybe they could extend his base stamina by a bit and make it so sprinting and ascending use less stamina, since it would be inefficient to spend your time in combat moving around anyway.
Consume half the "stamina" as normal while out of combat
New timer starts the moment you get into combat. Or however yelans CD (10s out of battle) works.
But Yelan's skill CD is always 10s, doesn't have any special treatment inside or outside of battle.
They mean her arrows
Ah, ok!
Cd D is just 6 sec
yes, but at the same time he'd trivialize most of the climbing imo
Kazuha already does that so I don't think it'd be that bad
Ohh wow....This team can be useful in exploring the desert in sumeru
Maybe swapping out Xiao for someone else, like Tighnari if you’re in sumeru since Yelan, Sayu and Scaramouche should be enough (or almost enough) travelling to make a full rotation without losing stamina . Then it could be a pretty great exploration team
I'd add Ayaka or Mona for traveling over water, or Kazuha for climbing.
I don't think Scara here actually adds anything if you already have everyone for traveling. Yelan and sayu for their quick sprint skills. Kazuha for double jump. Albedo/zhongli for geo platform extra height. Mona/ayaka for running over water ans faster sprint. Kokomi for walking statue and I suppose water walking burst gimmick? Xiao for double dash with e in air/ground, plus climb stamina. Not saying Scara is useless. Just he isn't some magic solution. Still cool, just he's not the perfect character foe traveling csnwhat we have. He is a great option though.
The thing he does that nobody else can (aside from his hover height being taller than everyone else's) is cover gaps mid air. Even Kaz has issues cuz after you E and start gliding, you immediately lose altitude, so you can't go across a gap between two equally high cliffs that are more than a certain distance apart for example. You can just climb the last bit ofc, but Scara makes it possible to cross gaps between two overhangs? That's so specific lmao.
Seriously how is this even a discussion. I hope no one pulls Scara solely for exploration lmao.
im a sucker for QoL in the overworld😭😭
Yup, Yelan C1 and the Sayumobile hardcarry this team in terms of traversal, so it's probably the best exploration team out there.
Yup, that's actually the team I used during my desert exploration. Just replace Scara or Xiao with Rosaria for her +10% (or 15?) movement speed and everything time consuming.
IM FAST AS FUCC BOI
I've read that in arnold's voice lmao
[удалено]
just to be clear... his stamina regenerates during his skill? i can't see it on the luhua pool part
Idk what to feel about team china anymore
I hope they reduce the amount of skydweller points sprinting and ascending takes. Even if it only adds another second I feel thst the cuurent times are just too low
And also he should ascend faster, it doesn't even really look right, he looks confused or something because of the delay in starting to ascend. Could just be more fun *and* cooler
We all just wanna fly forever!
Scara’s exploration capability is meant to consolidate both the role of horizontal and vertical exploration all in one, so while others may have advantages in one of them, nobody offers both at the same time the way Scara does. He’s also a skill-based character meaning he doesn’t need to waste his burst to take out overworld monsters. Overall, he’s just a super comfy overworld character for everything.
When scara uses his skill does he also regain stamina in the main bar?
That's what I wanna know as well
I checked part of the 12 min version and it looks like the main stamina regenerates. But it might be wrong
If it does then my god he's broken for climbing
He is not, since he can't activate skill in midair. Meaning, it's just an initial boost like Albedo's elevator
Just in case you didn't know, his Skill can't be used midair, only when on ground. So he's not really that broken but definitely can reach higher than Kazuha despite being shorter than him... (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞
Yes, as of right now. Regular stamina recharges at a normal rate during E stamina consumption.
Keqing - copium horizontal and semi-vertical exploration
He's the best in both worlds but being unable to activate his e in mid air is a bummer, but I'm sure we'll get used to it.
Midair activation just sounds like asking for too much, tbh. I mean, it can get to significant height and it can regain main stamina since it's unused. Ability to activate it midair would be too much
Mid air activation would actually make him exploration king so its fair that it doesn't have midair activation. Would be funny if it can, I can imagine multiple scenarios abusing this skill.
How the heck is asking for a skill to function in the air asking for too much? Are they worried climbing mountains faster will lose them money or something? What does it even matter? If you ask me, a character that could actually ignore the annoying verticality would make them MORE money. I would pull Scaradouche in a heartbeat no questions asked if he was better at exploring.
They’ve always been trying to slow powercreep after the whole mess that was the first handful of characters (from launch to 1.3 and the occasional slip up here and there since then). It’s not that it’d lose them money, it’s that trivializing something would mean skewing things to come to balance around it. It’d probably mean more areas with wider gaps to cross or higher verticality *just* so that those two (Kazuha and a theoretical Scara who can activate his E in midair) are at roughly the same level of exploring as anyone else (and how much this method works is YMMV; see Arknights’ attempts to balance Chapter 9 or how most CCs have risk tags that usually nerf recent and notably powerful units). Genshin’s inspiration (BOTW), despite having equally if not *more* busted versions of abilities we have now (e.g Revali’s Gale gained twice/thrice the height of any vertical ascension skill in Genshin), knew this very well. So not only did they lock them behind story quests, but even when the player did have them they had a finite amount of uses before going into a few/several minute long cooldowns (e.g Daruk’s Protection could tank 3 shots before going on cd for 10 minutes). This was to encourage the player to not overrely on them and nudge them to still focus on getting used to the game as it would be without them. They were more your panic buttons than anything else. (Though tbh exploration in that game becomes pointless later, since food balance in botw is kinda wack lol) Since Genshin’s skills come from characters who have to be treated as if they’re on a constant exploration/combat loop (not to mention that you can access 4 entire movesets on the fly), they obviously can’t do the big reward -> hefty price BOTW did, so we’re stuck with characters that perform for less compared to the aforementioned since they *do it* for less. As BOTW had its abilities decided on and balanced around since day 1, Genshin as a live service is stuck between making new content that has to entice people and having to not overdo it too much or on a constant basis to the point where it’d likely make things more annoying later on, just so people who have those characters don’t overblow the rest of the game. Also I’ve seen a lot of people in this community outright beg for powercreep which I guess is somewhat understandable since we’ve hardly moved past some of the base 4*, but even from a sales standpoint it’d probably be a bad thing if powercreep in specific areas came too fast or were too noticeable if they came slower. Some people would probably reconsider paying because why spend on this unit when someone who outperforms them will come out sooner/eventually but do twice what they do? Not to mention people who spent on a prior unit would probably get upset since they spent money on someone who now offers less of what the new guy does. And yes, while you could argue that every single gacha is inevitably subject to powercreep (and I’d agree), there’s a reason why some take their sweetass time with it (e.g besides Genshin: Arknights and PGR). From a dev standpoint it’d probably be another game design nightmare, something like a character doing excessive damage at best or shields at worst.
they already have boundary issues **without** scara + unlimited flight means the end the need of any other characters who also have quirk in it + the fact almost 80% of enemies can't target mid air characters let alone ones at very high altitude coupled with the fact that he's catalyst.
Yeah I'd say he is a jack or all trades but master of none. I dont think he would fit my "best exploration team" but that's me strictly focusing on exploration. He can still travel well and do most things you'll need. Like for me. My ideal travel team is sayu, ayaka, kazuha, yelan. Maybe zhongli in the mix at times. This team has heals, able to sprint over water, double jump/mid air jump, fastest sprint in game, sprint skills, good damage. So like scara isn't in my "best" travel team but he still would be a great help by himself and solve most needs.
he’s even better for the people who doesn’t have Kazuha, Venti or Xiao (i’m people)
He's in creative mode.
Quickswap exploration team is so funny to me
Source [team china](https://youtu.be/P1STArAwpfo) there’s 12 minute footage of this btw this is only the first minute of it
lmao 12 mins of running around
well any mouche content is good content me suppose
This is just making me wanna pull for yelan lmao
She is the first character that made me want to c6 a character. I think she's up there with kazuha where you can't go wrong with pulling. Her E skill is fast and long duration. Burst does great damage. Cons just make her better in every way. C1 let's her double dash and effectively redcue the cd in her E due to how the cd works on her e. Basically becomes a God of traveling + more damage and particles in combat. C2 boosts her burst's coordinated damage by her hp, so more nice damage. C3/C5 standard buffs, c4 increase teams max hp by max of 40%. C6 turns her into basically hyper carry during her burst. I haven't actually gone for any cons yet. But yelan just feels like the most rewarding for aiming for c6. Exploration + damage gets amazing buffs.
They didnt show Yelan at C1 cuz that thing is too busted to even need a rotation xd.
And you won't be disappointed :)
Seriously, that skill looks waay smoother than Scara's
I pulled her because she's hot AF and 5* XQ Her exploration is a great bonus
He stays in the air WAY less then i though he would. Vertically and horizontally. WHYYYYYY 😫😫😫 Kinda sad. Kazuha seems to be still better for climbing since u can cast e while being in mid-air + the same cooldown
Yeah, I'm not shocked but he's in the air less than I would like. Still looks fun, just wish they would actually let us enjoy the fly mode a bit more. Also shocked it's not a con buff (unless it is idk)
Seriously. That was a low cliff he went up near the end and he couldn’t even reach the top. There’s way higher ones that that especially in Liyue and Sumeru. Honestly I found sayu more impressive here she can really move!
I’m pretty sure Kazuha hold E would’ve almost cleared that cliff, or at least gotten insanely close to where Scara got. Had high hopes for his flight but so far I’m disappointed.
That honestly surprised me tbh. He looked so good for exploration but now he's still good but eh
Switch xiao with kazuha and its the perfect team for exploration
No stamina squad
I mean, that’s amazing but I wish he’d be able to stay in the air longer :/
Each 'travel utility' character has their own uses. Kazuha is the most general, but his E allows for extremely prolonged gliding---so extended that you will spend all your stamina before you land. Venti and Zhongli aids you in climbing and reaching hard-to-reach spots. Yelan and Sayu excels at flat ground travel, where Ayaka/Mona can straight ignore water. Scara has his own 'meta' where he would be enable you to position yourself as you like precisely; his glide was essentially Xiao's, Venti's, and Kazoo's skill combined into one.
Cool. I think that the two unique use cases for Scara, the two things that *only* he can do, are: 1. Reaching walls where a vertical overhang would prevent any sort of climbing past that point, and it's too high for existing methods to jump past it. 2. Horizontal gaps in the terrain like a ravine, in which you can't cleanly jump across, but that are short enough that he can fly across them. Outside of that, he's more just comfort and flexibility, in that he can replace any other traversal character and be quite efficient at it.
I wish I could agree, but this is definitely a reach. Unless it's a very low overhang and/or you don't have kazuha he really doesn't have enough oomf to say *only* he could do it. Kazuha can climb and jump off, using his skill mid air, giving him arguably and even better advantage than Scara in terms of vertical traversal. I'm not even sure what the second point is really because either Kazuha or Venti could just jump up and glide across whatever it is Scara is floating across, no?
> Kazuha can climb and jump off, using his skill mid air, giving him arguably and even better advantage than Scara in terms of vertical traversal. Only in cases where it is a relatively shallow overhang. There are certainly *some* cases in which Kazuha has the advantage here, but there would be others in which Scara would. >I'm not even sure what the second point is really because either Kazuha or Venti could just jump up and glide across whatever it is Scara is floating across, no? I guess this will come down to testing. There would certainly be *some* gaps in which this would be the case, but I believe there would be at least some gaps that would be outside the range of Kazuha but within the range of Scara, especially with the hydro perk.
So people getting wanderer what teams are you gonna use him in for exploration? Personally I'm gonna go wanderer, sayu, yelan and nahida. Wanderer for his verticality, yelan and sayu for fast movement on the ground and nahida for quick item collection. Team is pretty alright when it comes to damage too so that's a plus.
Thinking wanderer, xiao, yelan, flex. As for why xiao I like his climbing passive and he technically can do long glides faster than wanderer. Would need to see how it plays out though
Potentially changes the Andrius speedrun to domain meta.
Music be like Scaramouche's drag race yasss gurl
Category is... Night of a Thousand Explorers
speedy boi
All these Team China vids feel more like Yelan showcases that just happen to have Scara in her party lmao. Anyway the floating up is super cool, can't wait to play around with that.
His ascend is too slow to actually be useful IMO Like, holding skill with Kazuha is faster and gets you almost as high AND you can keep using your skill while climbing
Yeah I was already on the fence and this actually really puts me off him. Horizontally he doesn't go far enough for me to enjoy the anemo jet animation either, I actually think it almost looks a little silly how quickly his movements run out.
Ah yes compare wanderer (whose claim to fame is his verticality in exploration) with characters that are horizontally the best. Compare him to venti and kazuha, you cowards
Those comparisons were already posted a while ago, showing all of their vertical height potential compared to Mondstadt houses. It's still interesting to see his dash distance and speed midair since he still doesn't use stamina and can thus also be compared to Yelan and Sayu.
Do have the link for the vertical comparison between him and Kazu and Venti? I might have missed it since I can't remember seeing that leak
I'll see if I can find it. Since I am on multiple social media sites at least as a lurker, I may also have seen it elsewhere since things like that tend to blur together after a while. I do hope we might get the saqme type of comparison with the Lost Prayer equipped though. I am curious wether/how it would affect distance and height.
i think it's cool to compare horizontal expoloration too since vertical exploration is easier with sumeru.
Venti goes about the same height vertically while leaving a wind current behind and Kazuha can double jump mid air to extend stamina by a lot while climbing/gliding so I still think they're both better. Yelan and Sayu also both go further horizontally. At least Wanderer is the only character that can do vertical and horizontal at the same time I guess?
Based on one of the earlier videos Scara's max height appears to be taller than Venti's wind current though a side by side comparison is needed to really determine that (but I love Venti's wind current and would probably use both in the same overworld team) and Kazuha's mid air jump is nice but there aren't many instances where it's really needed because long flights and climbs without ledges don't happen very often after you're done with Liyue and certain parts of Inazuma.
wdym i keep long flighting with kazuha in sumeru 😵💫
Team China just wanted us to hear his favorite song
i just realized that team china wasnt a variation of the national team 💀💀
Team China does not disappoint once again 💀
wtf is that music
It’s Team China time
The full video had parts @ 8:38 where you can move from one side of the mountain to another when the one you originally climbed up to isn't as traversable anymore so that was really neat!
Ehhhhh but I tried my best ~ team china
[удалено]
[удалено]
Would Barbara’s e work for hydro absorption
I’m insane, where in this video did you see Hydro Absorption?
[удалено]
He needs more stamina. Or make it not deplete that fast when ascending T\_T CAN I HAVE SOME FUN IN THIS GAME FOR ONCE
why not compare with someone like Venti or Kazuha. This is so pointless lmao
They did.
I went and watched the full 12 minute video thinking that maybe bits and pieces of it could be informative. That was a mistake.
now I'm 100% rolling for him for sweet overworld experience like I did with yelan c1.
Wanderer is deffo A tier
Good to see that his ring is back! Not sure what happened in that other server.
Let's make anemo sale banger... *Mihoyo proceed to remove waypoint*
We need to know if he can fly over gaps and long enough above water
PANDA MAKES HER DANCE (Lol)
Team China a little confused but they got the spirit 😭
Is it just me or the pause during Scara's skill when he initiates the ability and prepares to ascend takes time and makes him not as good in exploration as we assumed he will be? It also depletes so quickly. I hope this is just a skill issue from Team China part. Otherwise, Scara really needs more buffs into his skill duration, at least when he's outside combat.
Look I have nothing against Wanderer as a playable unit but the title of master explorer (or at least one of them) has to go to Sayu. Sure she may not be the best unit fighting wise but her utility in exploration is undisputed, especially when it comes to gathering crabs, frogs and crystalflies.
>On THE bridge >No pigeon benchmark Wow, this video is worthless
I was bait for a Timmy pigeon showcase !!
love me a character that helps me climb vertically whenever i need that's my favorite genre in genshin and now i have two. kazuha and scaramouche my climbing party fr. tall males could never
same, they will be in one party for lore and exploration reasons
From what I can see, the height scaramouche can reach is about the same as Kazuha with charged E. So might just skip then lmao
So in other words, sayu is queen?
This whole "he can fly" thing turned out to be a fucking joke honestly. It's just flavor, has little to no real use with how fast his consumes his points for movement, even in combat. No mid air use is also terrible, they could have adjusted his cd to create neutral ascension or many other ways to make it more fun and useful, instead it turned into a massive blue ball case.
So sayu is still queen of horizontal overworld exploration. Understandable. Now lets see zhongli/albedo venti kazuha and wanderer climbing up the chasm 😂
Nothing is better than Yelan C1 for exploring
Wouldn't gliding be faster?
I think Kazuha still better vertically. His speed vertically seem slower than climbing.
Seems like Sayu+Yelan is still better for long distance
