Having the trio of Xingqiu, Bennett, Xiangling is a game changer.

I appreciate the Layla love! She’s definitely on par with zhongli with enough investment. The only caveat is that her shield is too short for long rotations. But she works just fine with shorter rotations.

Bennet was an angel coming from the sky for these no-wishing accounts

I love this. I’ve always been a believer that any character can be used for the game with enough investment. Which means you can use your favourite characters. Sadly a lot of people I’ve met always use the same characters and don’t like it when you use something different. My Lisa for example can hit massive damage…but if people see me with her? They go raiden or yae (even though yae is barely different from Lisa) then demand I swap. It’s kinda sad. I miss the first year of genshin when people used a huge variety because we were all still learning.

This is funny because I actually almost did this on accident because there was a time I did not know about wishing I got to around lvl 35 before I did my first wish…

This is quite an achievement This is a flex because you know that half of the effort is thru using your skills as a player, not soley relying to your characters' power Mad respect 👍

No wishing means Noelle is forever locked behind the Beginner's Wish banner. Now _that_ for me is a nightmare.

Honestly I appreciate this video so much. I understand that when people fine tune broken characters that they start thinking the abyss is a joke, but it's only a joke because of the amount of effort and saving they've done to ensure success. You take away a core part of the system and it quickly becomes a very hard challenge.

This reminds me of when dehya first came out and I had to actually think and work in order to make her viable, rather than just melt everything around me while sleepwalking through the game with my hyperbloom team. It made the game a lot more fun since I had to actually engage with it on an intellectual and mechanical level rather than just 'unga bunga big numbers hit bigger'.

Now we have free Lynette at ar 25

My first time clearing (not even 36 star-ing) abyss was the beginning half of September. I've been playing since July 2022, just hit ar 58, and I'm f2p but every 5 star character I've managed to get is pretty broken (I have all the archons + kazuha). This video just put into perspective how much of a skill issue I have that I've been working on my "broken" characters nonstop and still only just managed to succeed after 14 months. That being said, I'm weirdly motivated after this? Yes I clearly have a skill issue but if you can do this literally anything is possible. So, in a roundabout way, thank you! Hopefully it won't be too long until both of us manage to get 36 stars lol

I'M SO PROUD OF YOU~~~! This was so cool to watch and see you accomplish. I now wanna see if I can improve the characters that I have so that they're all useable with decreased suffering on my part when I'm farming for friendship. Thank you so, so much for this video.

Now THIS is a genshin impact challenge.

this actually makes me appreciate hoyo a tad bit more too, considering you don't really lose much not being able to farm floor 12 and immense amount of content the game has with stories, world quests and world puzzles and treasure hunting. Any other publisher/dev with a gacha game I know would have made it nigh impossible to make progress in the game's late game content without whaling

Omg wishing on the weapon banners is such a good idea!!!!

I absolutely love Layla, her skills are so pretty and her shield is one of the best besides Zhongli obviously. My main team currently is Layla, Yanfei, Rosaria and Koko, I just got Zhongli so sometimes he gets swapped in when I'm doing boss fights or facing scarier enemies. I somehow got c4 Bennett from that banner and the free copy we got (I didn't have him prior.)

Always great to see you upload a video:)

You can't just put Hopes and Dreams in and not expect me to jam out! Amazing video, you truly are DETERMINED!

Dang this must’ve taken awhile props to you. Really nice video

Layla is amazing for "just a shielder", especially when she's teamed up with a decent hydro (not Barbara) character (I mostly use Ayato for the AOE burst combo). Collei is not bad for 4* Dendro, her boomerang is surprisingly useful, and while her AOE isn't as big as Traveller's, it does fire off faster, which is great for hyperbloom.

Having high level well built characters really does make all the difference in the world. I remember when I had just started playing Genshin, I was about AR 15, and ruin guards were my worst nightmare. It would take me like twenty minutes to fight one and I would be hiding somewhere shooting at them as Amber and dodging the whole time cause she's really squishy. But then my AR 60 boyfriend came onto my world for co-op and we ran around the Sumeru desert with him one-shotting everything in sight. It was so fun to get to explore without worrying about getting my ass handed to me by some hilichurl camp. Now I'm AR 45 and while there's a lot of content in the game I do still struggle with, it doesn't take me an insane amount of time to beat any one enemy now. Plus I know what my characters are strong enough to fight and what I need help on.

The fact that Genshin "unlocks" all 4 party members for you very early is really nice thing. I remember how I used to play Borderlands where you have your 4 weapon slots initially locked, and that means you need to re-learn every time you unlock new slot. Which, in my opinion, happens too late in the game. I'm happy Genshin decided against that.

Im inspired to do the same bro! Thank you for this! Im so proud of you and cheering while watching your video hehe this is epic! Keep it up! :)

For almost the entirety of my Genshin playthrough (basically two years now, until a couple of months ago) I didn’t know how to build my characters. So whenever you said about how you have to interact with the people you fight I FELT that. The biggest struggle fight I had was Signora tbh

Ugh. This makes me sick. I'm so lazy I just don't bother with floor 12 even though I could in theory clear it. I just want to steam roll it like it's floor 9. Good job!

I do appreciate the effort on this account, btw. Did you know that you also can get Lynette as the free character(permanent like any other character) So maybe you could get a more member party in team too!

It's always nice to see your uploads in my notifications. Keep it comin 😎

Im doing the same challenge but I only wished once on Noelle’s banner to obtain her because I consider her to be a “starter” character.

I can‘t even get to chamber 3 in floor 12 with my normal account so I have mad respect for this

Great video. I wish this was around when I first started playing and wishing on every banner and spending money. I no longer play that account because Genshin is a different game if you have everything. It’s boring for ME. So I started a new account and I’m just using characters I got free and a couple I got just wishing on Noelle’s banner once because I like her. I’m struggling but it’s fun.

its possible to use the starter team and finish the in-game story content like the archon and world quests, i used to use the starter team with noelle all the way to sumeru, my luck was really bad but at least i did win my first 50/50, and sure i did wished for noelle but honestly even without her i would've still survived though a bit harder without the help of her shield and healing.

Keep uploading videos we support you❤❤

Absolutely appreciable

I think now u know my pain, when I first started genshin in 2022 I was not informed about it basics and I just used to play it for fun so ofc I used to waste my primos on standard banner without knowing anything then I played a whole of mondstad, liyue with only (kaeya, aether, barbara and etc) then I quit in between for no content then came back during electro arcon update and still used the same and later when I grinded for artifacts then my friend said me to pull for only temporary banner, Then I realised shi

Excellent editing!!

I'm doing this too! however, i gave myself access to the beginners banner only once i reached AR45, i now have Noelle & Beidou! now i have no wishing left. I'm currently AR55, very close to AR56. i can't wait for lantern right so i can have xingqiu finally! i chose yaoyao last time for dendro & healing. my absolute needed/wanted character is also fischl bc as much as i like beidou, i would prefer oz on the field instead. :(

Everytime someone uses xenoblade music i just want to jump around in my chair with excitement 😂

When I started my new account, all I actually needed was Amber and Kaeya. Mostly Amber. At the very beginning I gave her the best weapons and artifacts, and she was great help if you use her properly (charged shots all the way baby, no fooling around with her silly auto-attack). Next stop was Xiangling from Abyss floor 3, at which point you basically won the game. She's a 6-star unit, I tell ya. You can get Barbruh for added comfort and Collei to use her for dendro element check, but XL and Kaeya is all you really have to build from now on.

Just getting bored from playing genshin bc of slow updates, seeing content like these and now finally decided to make a new account and try no wishing as well maybe till I find a char I like new or old. Great content man!

this is amazing and it makes me feel better about using weak and underappreceiated characters

I love this kind of videos where people have to actually play the game haha

I literally just started playing Genshin a few days ago and haven't used my primos yet (saving for the upcoming Raiden banner) so I just have the traveler and his merry band of free 4* characters (plus Noelle of course) but it has been pretty fun so not complaining there.

super motivation well done

nice video man!!

I tried this but only with the original 4 without collecting the free characters so my character screen only had 4 characters, but I think in Sumeru I decided to spend all my unused primos on weapon banner and didn't realize characters also dropped there. My biggest mistake but still decided to use only the OG4. I was able to clear the entire story as of current but like the issues you had with time limit in spiral abyss, there are some red key puzzles in the open world. Different journey, but even with Dendro Traveler with Mistsplitter Reforged, Kaeya with Aquila Favonia, +108.3% Physical DMG Amber with Skyward Harp, and Lisa with a Thousand Floating Dreams, there is still some over world content that is hard using onlg these characters.

AYYYYY THIS MUST’VE FELT SO REWARDING 😭🙏

🥰🥰🥰 Great as always 🥰

do you think you'll ever do a guide on this? as a new player im so confused on how to do things to prepare for end-mid game.

I have a wishless account hat i actually play on more then my main account nowadays. the most difficult thing is or i guess now-was- not having bennet on my wishless account to buff my Chongyun for old-school National team. i gave the Abyss a couple runs after getting benny on my Wishless account and i nearly cleared Floor 11, the biggest issue now isn't so much dmg as my lack of a Crowd Controlling character. Maybe well get a free sucrose in the future. I made this account about a month after the release of the game and i always try to do events that give us free weapons and characters.

I m doing this same stuff with my new account, and thanks i got better idea what will happen and how will i exicute things in more efficient ways.

congrats sir!

Mad respect bro

Yeah, looking at it objectively, I think Lisa is the best of the starter trio now. Kaeya's still fine, but Dendro(Hyperbloom specifically, but even Aggravate with Fischl's A4) gives Lisa an on-field driver presence with stupidly low investments for equally stupid high returns, surpassing even the ridiculousness that is Blizzard Strayer.

I pulled Tighnari, when I created my account, so yeah, it was a big help

Now! Lynette is Free Every alternate patch there is a free character from events.

3:03 me, having a Lisa-Collei Hyperbloom Team: Oh, yeah, totally haha...

Kaeya can actually solo Raiden Shogun boss. All you need is good dodging skill.

Thats a good brother

I'm doing this same thing on my account too. I hope to complete spiral abyss one day on it too.

YES LAYLAS HERE TO SAVE YOU, accept her love

noblies hasn't pulled since day 1 of genshin

the answer is simple even before you do this challenge : you can but you will play a frustrating hell game (not sure you can even call it game anymore) that reminds me of dark soul. . why its like that? because the game needs income, so gacha aspect will be made as something important to be able call this a fun game

I love Bennet so much

Admirable! Buying my early bday gift, c3 hutao! Maybe c4 if i get lucky lol

i havent watched the full vid yet have you fr done this? also im the third comment also when did you start editing this vid and everything cuz the line sumeru the final region is what i heard

meanwhile me spending every wish i get because i didn't have self control i have nearly 2000 primos, 5 pulls and another 5 from the login thing tomorrow :p all for furina and arlecchino

@tectone would be proud

Automatically liking this vid cause of the NGNL music in the background

Genshin impact:the darksouls experience

I play a no-wish account. The Noele banner is still there XD

Lmao! You did not! You wild wonky person, you! Could not be me... lmao.

I mean, there is a player that has beaten whole Abyss with 25 AR account, which locked him at 50 level characters without second ascension talent, weapons at 50 level as well etc. And AR 25 can't even get many of the best free to play stuff, like Amenoma Kageuchi, which is locked behind AR 30. So it will be far easier with 90 lvl characters, even if they are the free characters You get. Also no wishing doesn't mean You can't claim free characters like Layla for example either.

Would ne nice if someone just make a playlist for there gameplay where the beat the game with no wish

My biggest flex:i got from ar 1 to ar 55 without noelle

so only with event banners can you get a 8th char lol. and you spent how long... 8 months to a year?

me casually doing this on my first playthrough anyway because im dumb

Hold on..I use Layla alot but why have I not considered using her in abyss😦

The way I use xingqiu as my abyss healer😅

I missread the title and thought you can beat genshin without wasting a single time

honestly i wanna know how many wisges u can do on this account

bro finna turn rich

I got to Ar 50 without wishing as well, Aether Kaeya Lisa and Xinagling xd, throughout that I completed till Inazuma Quests. At the end artifacts is what matters mostly.

If we ignore the abyss completely as it's an optional content for molding and tryhards, the game is fairly easy without wishing at all. (considering 95% of the video focused on it alone). Even if it's a free game, you are still paying.. with your time instead of money.

Meanwhile, me, been playing for 3 years and have wished and even spent money on the game. Still haven't cleared floor 12. I guess I should just pass away now.

I won't even watch the video: event rewards, artifacts, talents.

bro fr looks like pointcrow

Floor 11 monolith challenge was sus though

I just realised that collie’s fit is green and her eyes are purple where as Lisa’s is purple with green eyes

I haven’t made the game easy yet. I have so many unbuilt characters that I’m still having fun lol my main DPS and main is legit Diluc 😂😂😂

I think iam in love❤

how did you got bennett and layla without wishing?

I started a new acc and good yelan, and dude life is so easy

17 hours later!!!

"YESS!! LET'S GOOOO" *gets 0 stars* I'M CRYING THATS SO FUNNY

I think the problem is that now youngsters don't know how to play a game at all esp such as Genshin. Using characters should be creative and useful, in tempo with the game content. I couldnt go without wishing thou because I like to have team formed of cool guys and those aren't obtainable aside of wishes (except Kaeya). But I always change teams and like to build all characters that I like (btw I spend only on Welkin occasionaly - so no craxy money spending, wont be fun to get characters/constellations easily). Usually I make teams according to regions. So if in Mondstadt for example I go with Eula Mika Kaeya Diona/Diluc Kaeya Sucrose Lisa /Diluc Benny Jean Barbara. If in Liyue: Yanfei Xinquiu Ningguang Yelan/Baizhu Yelan Zhongli Keqing/Shenhe Yun Jin Yelan Ningguang, etc.. Imazuman team: Thoma,Yoimiya,Kuki, Kirara/Thoma,Kirara,Heizou,Kuki, etc. Sumeru team: Dori,Layla,Candace,Alhaitham /Alhaitham Kaveh Dori Candace. In Fontaine: Neuvillette/Lynette/. (Hoping for Navia soon to fill in quickly Fontaine team😅). Overall, if you just play Genshin for high numbers (damage saucers) and clearing content easily by money - this won't let you feel Genshin at all nor enjoy the game truly. It's not your thypicall rpg/mmorpg/open world game and it can give really much if you are properly "playing" the game and not "clearing". Enjoy gaming all x)

i kinda want to do this

good video

What was that music at the end of the video please?

I don’t pay to win in games and honestly it half sucks since I’m usually very late on games, but I like difficulty

To make it easier for me i made it so i could use blue wishes but not pinks or primos just because i couldnt handle not wishing lol-
