Did you notice Sethos' damage dropping after 4 CAs? During recording I was mostly thinking I was just losing buffs like VV, but what I didn't realize until after I edited this video was that Sethos' 700% EM passive is lost after 5s or 4 shots hitting. Which means the indefinite CA playstyle isn't ideal compared to hybrid CA/burst playstyle. So the "proper" way to play a high ER 4pc TF Sethos is to do 3 or 4 CAs (depends on your energy situation), then use skill into burst and do N2 combos with walk canceling. But this also means someone like Baizhu applying dendro off field may be notably better since quicken would need to be refreshed before bursting on Sethos with Kirara (though you could maybe run a normal Wanderers Troupe build and swap to Kirara in the ~3s skill downtime). Regardless, I could still clear the abyss with the non-ideal CA spam playstyle, so how much does it _really_ matter? That will probably depend on the level of your account investment. And I also definitely prefer the CA spam playstyle for OW still. Originally I was planning this video to have Sethos @ level 80 and seeing if he felt fun enough to earn being level 90, but then I realized he had enough interesting ways to be played (such as the high ER build I used this video) that he ended up being a much more satisfying unit to play than I expected. Here be the livestream where I leveled up and tested this team more: kzfaq.infofjDTEmDmRvc (I may or may not have gotten Al Haitham during it...) Lastly, for any spreadsheet impacters out there, Sethos IS amazing by my personal standards. I'm not claiming he is the best electro carry in the game, but he has far exceeded my expectations, and is worthy of being called "amazing."

There's a specific reason I love you, because your the only streamer who clears their damn notifications on Genshin. And for that you get a Sub + Bell

Youve made me hear “this is based” EVERYTIME. I CANT UNHEAR IT

i wanted sethos so badly, and instead got 9 thomas 4 bennetts, a million weapons, and 2 alhaithams. no sethos to be found

Im at the point i really dont care about power level and just want to build fun characters (like Freminet), so I'd love to build and play Sethos. I was sold on him from the moment we met him in Cyno's story quest and I got a feel for his personality. I guess I'll just hope he dops randomly from the standard banner somehow since I'm skipping these banners for Furina

I just wanna say thank you for giving a lot of characters a chance that most people would write off immediately. This video even encouraged me to pull on the banner just for Sethos (who I thankfully got in one 10 pull)😊

There are too many content creators calling him Garbage and that he's just a worse electro yoimiya.. sure he's not as strong as like C6 Gaming but he's one of the 4-star DPS that doesn't depend on his constellation too much ( looking at you gaming ) I'm glad you like his playstyle and actually took the time to learn about his kit, there's too many people doom posting on Sethos and Clorinde, so I'm glad you're not one of them and for that, you've once again gained my respect

I’m a Sethos Main and i was so lucky to get him C6. At the moment I play him with Furina, Nahida and Baizhu. The Weapon i use on him is Hunters Path. Thank you for the video, i will try the animation canceling. :)

Sethos has a fascinating kit, so I figured I could count on Soluna to explore his different playstyles, teams and builds. Pleasantly surprised to see how fun his fast CAs look, so thanks for offering some options for continuing that. I did notice that he loses the big passive bonus damage after 4 shots, but while running around in the overworld, 4 shots is plenty anyway and after 15sec that bonus will come back. (Probably will use fav for this overworld play so I don't have to feed him energy much) Good to know about the walk cancels, for getting out more electro infused shots when using his burst. Anyway, thanks for the video!

You see I was actually thinking of building him with Zhongli and Nahida instead, similar to Tighnari's team. I've grown use to Zhongli not even for the shield but the unconditional resistance shred lol

This is the first time since I started where I immediately LOVED a 4 star. Gaming is cool but I have wayyy too many pyro characters built. As a controller player my favorite bow characters are Tighnari and Yoimiya, so I guess it was fate. While a bit unconventional my overworld team rn is alhaitham, xingqui, Sethos and Clorinde.

Sethos seems like such an interesting character! I really want to build him after I finish building alhaitham and prefarming furina!

Sethos is amazing as long as you don’t use his normal charge attack until you got C6. Simply use his elemental skill and burst, remember to apply other elements for elemental reaction for quicker burst charging. And elemental mastery build is best for him.

I personally used electro traveller to solve his er needs and it felt veryyyy good to me

I LOVE using him in Quickbloom with Furina, Nahida and Baizhu. I have an excellent WT, Hunter's Path build for him and my rotations go like 2 CA - E - 2 CA - E then any downtime can just be used to trigger Dendro cores instead.

honestly, my fav genshin youtuber. He doesn’t scream and he doesn’t add flashy vfx or loud music. He def deserves more recognition!!!

I’ve been building sethos and he’s now almost fully built but I’ve never considered a team and now I’m watching this I’ve realised my exact neuvi team is one of the best sethos team lmaoo (baizhu/fischl/furina)

Jeez I love your vids❤ Your voice, idk why, but it's so pleaseant to listen to and I like how you try and think of how old characters or worse character can be used, like for example C6 Candace with Arlechinno

Love your channel❤

dori c4 is actually so good for him with nahida and furina , even tho you dont have a shield the constant healing and energy makes it up for it , also c6 sara with elegy and instructor is absolutely busted if you play him w CA playstyle

Thank you for giving 4 stars, especially Sethos the attention they need. I love his play style so much, he’s truly so much fun and easy to build :D

Got him to C6 unintentionally while pulling for Clorinde (guess who’s a C2 Keqing haver!!); haven’t paid much attention to him besides admiring his character but this showcase might’ve just changed my mind! His gameplay looks really satisfying and fun.

I just started a few months ago so I only just built Fischl and Xingqiu. I'm wondering if I should build Sethos next since I got him c3 or go for more well known best 4 stars like Xinagling Thoman and Bennett

I run him with Fischl, Collie, and Baizhu since I only have him on my experimental f2p account and I don't have Kirara. Baizhu alone just doesn't feel like it's enough dendro application and Collei is actually my next fav dendro support. My opinion is that he's like Yanfei, an overall solid unit that get's better with cons and with investment can be powerful. Powerful enough to out dps a 5 star, no but he'll still carry you. I'm also running him with Slingshot as, apparently that's his second best weapon after Hunters Path and performs much better than the event bow, so very f2p friendly.

The team I'm enjoying with Sethos is with Furina, Nahida, and Zhongli for comfort. Surprisingly I'm also having a lot of fun with Furina, Kuki, and Baizhu.

HYPEEE NEW 4STAR VID JUST DROPPED🦖🦖🦖🦖

have you tried c6 Diona with intructror set as replacement for zhongli. On paper it might seem a good replacement as she provide em, heal, and shiel

Got a single copy just for the sake of it & likely won't go al out to build him for a while so slapped on some of my Wanderer's pieces & Alley Hunter just for lolz.

So far level 80 C1 sethos and he’s my favorite character since Gaming. Such a fun play-style and cool design, who cares what anyone else says the abyss is so easy i’m still clearing it with him, nahida, fischl, and baizhu as a team. It’s refreshing!

I just wish his cons fixed the extremely tight passive buff time he has… when he loses his passive his damage drops to hell

FWIW, I don't feel like building a 3* weapon, so I'll just keep him on Cloudforged. And I have been saving cracked Wanderer's Troupe pieces for over a year, and that set is seamless on him.

I just play him with tighnari. It's been feeling nice except my level 3 talents on sethos

I’ve been using 4pc wanderers but TF looks very comfy in terms of energy

Pulling for lofi but I’m still gonna try and get him he’s seems so fun compared to some bow users 😅

0:59 Yep, first time I hit an eagle mid-flight was with Sethos! (I won't count Yoimiya's auto aim shots)

Have you tried lyney's weapon on him? (I lost the chance to lyney's weapon trying to get arleccino spear)

I have a question Which one preferable: Fischl or beidou(since beidou burst can be triggered by charge attack)

17:29 you actually did 78134 DMG after the 71088, crazy

sethos or thignari for hyperbloom/aggravate?

cool vid

I might have missed it in the vid, but what constellation is your sethos at

Could the new event bow, work as a good f2p option?

The way he does more damage than my Ganyu hahahha

:33333 SETHOS VIDEO YIPPEEEEEE

soluna have you ever tried yae and xianyun together?

Love Sethos on my Arrows Only account. He helps me so much.

I don't even have sethos and yet I'm here 😅😅😅

I think if you manage to get c4 kirara she might get higher on the ranking of off field dendro sup, she still doesn't heals but the shields cooldown match up perfectly so

18:52 and that is why aqua is bis. It gives you 16% hp. Which is great

Just saw the update stream/pinned comment, but while listening to this I was wondering - why build so much ER to stay on-field for the 6 shots instead of swapping to re-swirl and re-shield at 3-4? I.E... Fischl E/Q, Kazuha E, Kirara E, Sethos E-C3 (E?), Kazuha Q, Kirara Q-E, Sethos E-C3 (or burst here?), repeat. Sorry if that's redundant, I'm a little lost on what the "main" charge attack playstyle people are describing is exactly.

God I really wanna build n use sethos but I am perpetually fischless 😭 I have KAVEH but not FISCHL. Idk maybe my c8 dori will finally be useful 💀

I kept trying to get his c2 but I got c24 Thoma instead 😂

I want him so badddd, hes literally the whole package like whaa hes hot and amazing aoe at the same time

Its kinda suck for me bcs hoyo kept spamming me bennett and thoma, even though I have both c6. I wish I could get him at c2, but for now I can only do c1

today i had my university enterance exam soluna.

If you switch fishl for electro Mc. You can do a lot of the same rhings without needing a specific artifact set of weapon. It will probably end up being a worst twam over all since fishl is busted but its more new player friendly

Hear me out, sac bow :I

Can I use thundering pulse on him

My god clear Farajkert quests, poor tree is suffering x_x

He gives me a weird dps Faruzan vibe so I enjoy him but I just have to many electro dps so it's hard to accept him on my main team.

In how far is he really different to Tighnari tho? Like yes with his burst its s little more fancy but except for that it seems pretty mich the same with skill then CA

Try scholar artifact for Sethos, And if you want to go beyond pair him with faruzan C6

that funny when ca almost do damage than element burst

me who spent all my primos on arle and stopped playing for a bit after losing 50/50: :(

Btw you should pretty much always build enough er to burst on cooldown on kirara

does your kirara use deepwood? or millelith?

day 900 no sethos 💔💔💔

I wasn't really interested in him ( mainly cuz his charged shot playstyle was underwhelming) but now im really hyped for whenever i manage to get him Im also gonna have a genuine reason to use kirara. Shes great, i really need a reason to use her when i have nahida, baizhu, yaoyao and elegy collei

What about new event weapon?

I like his charged attack playstyle more

I haven't seen anyone test hunter's path on him it should be better then slingshot

What if you use him with tighnari

this character is probably the only bow characters whose CA playstyle is actually good (except the not being able to walk when fully charged that shit is whack)

I see people say he is bad then they are hitting like 80k charged shots soo like am I missing something ?

I lost my clorinde's 50/50 to keqing at 84 pity😢. So, in rage i build sethos well now he does 28k charged attack. I pre-farmed everything for clorinde artifacts, talent mets, books etc. Well i think It's time to quit😓

No, I use Dori. Thanks for the reminder Although should Oz rather fischl 😒 11:07

First thing I thought when I saw his kit was sethos tighnari quickswap with like fischl baizhu but there are two major issues with that 1. I don't have sethos 2. I don't have tighnari But I was wondering why no one else tried that, both their up times are low enough to allow a secondary dps and if you like one of their play styles, you should like the others aswell

Is he worth building at c6?

mip

How does he compare to Keqing?

Tignari but less damage

artefakts?

I see shrine of depth in your map still not complete the exploration

just a reminder you guys: sethos' burst NA hits are counted as CA dmg, so he's a pure CA on field dps. thundering pulse will not benefit him no matter how good it looks on him 😭😭😭

a guide when the guide person don't know about that asimon boss mechanic gimmick even though that thing been released since long time ago and been on spiral abyss lineup several times💀

Nah, he is actually better than cyno 🗿

You should fix my account!. Started early. Quiet and came back recently. Skipped the whole storyline. Ar 54
