Hey Java, just letting you know that the healing is actually bc of Xingqiu! He has a passive that heals the active character every time one of the rain swords from his skill expires.

Unfortunately, Kirara doesn’t use Scaramouche’s boss material. She uses Apep boss material- (Good luck, you’ll need it Java)

Sacrificial sword is her best 4 star weapon since she can use her skill twice to get the maximum shield strength

If you’re wondering: 4* are added to the standard banner pool in the next patch after their release

As a cat person, I see this as a win. Edit: Meow if your a cat person

Hi java! Just wanted to let you know that 4* characters only get added to standard after the version they're in ends :D

FINALLY! A USEABLE NILOU TEAM!!!

It's better to run Kirara in a Spread/Aggravate team, but she's cool with Nilou. I'd use Alhaitham with the hyperbloom team and Kirara w/ Nilou for a superbloom team

you should really get kukis level as high as possible since hyperblooms base dmg goes up with character level

hey, if you hold Kirara’s skill, in cat box mode she can jump high enough to hit the mimic birds 😊

If hydro traveller turned out to be a healer, that’d be really nice for your team!

You know, you can put a portable teleporter near the bosses' arena - it's craftable at the alchemist's table

I'm sorry, but why would Kirara's skill ever trigger Xingqiu's rainswords 😭

Many shielders have a co-op constellation, even zhongli has one

Since I haven't seen anyone comment on this I'm pretty sure that Kirara's C2 is mostly for the DMG absorption of the shields, but it can also allow for you to give shields to allies.

I get doing these challenges when there's nothing to do, but that new area is definitely worth exploring, not to mention there's Nahida story quest pt2.

It just so happened that Kirara was the reason I found joy in playing again. Bc after Baizhu's release I really had 0 motivation to do anything other than dailies and resin(sometimes I couldn't even force myself to use resin) I had a sparkle of hope when I got c5 Candace while pulling for Baizhu and wanted to get her c6 so I could build her, but the game gave me c4 Kaveh when I wanted him only for looking pretty in my teapot. And then Star Rail and TOTK were released, and I was playing those with a lot more enthusiasm bc they were fresh (still am). Also, finals are getting closer and closer every day, and I'm exhausted.... But then he new update drops, and I manage to pull Kirara without losing my guaranteed Kokomi (I'm about 60 in with 100% guarantee). And I'm having so much fun building her that I'm also building Kaveh bc I want to play more! Still a bit behind on the quests, tho (haven't done Baizhu and Yoimia's quests, and Layla and Kaveh's hangouts)

i always enjoy swords or spells only:) definitely brightens my day when i see a new episode. i get so much inspo for my own spells only acc!

When fighting Baptist, I usually bring a hyperbloomish team. Kuki is gonna be your best friend, especially for cryo lol

Kirara with Nilou is good ngl, idk how to build Shield stacks though

Usually i fight the baptism boss with my al haitham hyperbloom team cause three elements are present in it to destroy its shields Al haitham(Dendro) > electro and hydro shield Kuki shinobu (Electro) > cryo shield Xingqiu (Hydro) > pyro shield Though my fourth slot has yelan, you can change it to some other character if you want to. The boss dies with this team very fast

To be honest, once I got into the video I completely forgot about what you said about the quality being bad. It still looks really good to me, and this video was really enjoyable!

16:36 -Alhaitam’s great renown-in Teyvst brings you dooown. SORRY I CANT

If you are okay with spending money you should buy the battlepass sword and give it to Alhaitham because that sword can heal. It is by no means his best wepon but it will help you survive in Nilou bloom team.

Meowrvelous episode. PS. This is the HARDEST Abyss since early days, says many many streamers and YT channels

Love the jokes and also didn’t notice no change in quality my eyesight go brrr lol

It’s the start of the video but Katherine is already looking in a sus direction

i think i would try to separate alheitham and kirara, and run kirara with nilou and heitham in a spread team. Maybe something like alheitham, kuki, xinqiu, flex and kirara, nilou, ayato, dendro traveler

Ayo bro wth is Katherine doing in the intro, personal space!

That moment when you only watch vids in 480p cause your internet is bad and didn't even notice the low bitrate

4* characters are added to the standard and weapons banners in the next version. So no Kirara there sadly in this version both in standard and weapons banners

Honestly even with my main account I can't beat the current floor 12 with 3 stars, I got them all 2 stars... usually in times like this I would watch other people's abyss run and learn the most effective rotation etc. But I'm just too tired to do that-- I choose to ignore the extra 50 primogems from 36*ing the abyss to save my own sanity. I'm happy with 33* thank you very much.

I always watch videos at ×2 speed and that actually makes it so the poor quality parts look good as normal

0:01 Where's Katheryne looking tho?💀💀

Bout the water birds: Kirara's jump on catbox form actually reaches them, so if you use Shinobu's skill and then jump with catbox Kirara, it's almost an instakill for those annoying birds

I think the hyper loom is an overall better abyss team. Alt has really high personal damage, which isn’t utilized very well in the bloom team since there are no spread reactions. In the hyper bloom, both hyper bloom and spread can proc, so alt can actually utilize his kit better

7:18 - 7:27 Best 10 seconds of my life right here. ♡

If you hold E, Kirara second form jumps can reach the birds... Is what I think would be possible

I've been non stop watching for like 24 hours (minus a break so not non stop but it's fine)

i was just watching your “only spells” series after a while and then i see u upload another video W

I got so used to the kinda mid quality during the video that when kirara's showed up all nice and crisp at the end I was so surprised

“I know I’ve been away for a week.” Java, this area has been out for like a month 😅

Hey Java, I'm not too sure if you know this already, but Kirara's shield stacks with itself if you hit enemies 3 times with her cat box form. Her shield is stronger, but it takes a couple seconds to spin around 3 times

i think if you are in need of good 5* swords for some of your characters you should pull on the weapon banner for second phase!

The new boss area was added in 3.6 so I suppose it's fine that you haven't yet been there.

FINALLY THE CIDEO I WAITED FOR KIRARA VID

7:28 absolutely not, that was adorable

IVE BEEN WAITING SO LONG FOR THIS

The small “seelie” (it’s not exactly a seelie) thaws some crystals that came from the main hole in the middle of the new map.

The way I kept refreshing my feed to get the video 👁👄👁

I feel like everyone forgor about the new desert region 2 days after 3.6 released. Honestly…3.6 felt like soo much happened and nothing happened at the same time

I love when youtubers apologize with genuine concern for video/audio quality when i actually couldnt give a smaller shi

so no one's talking about how the shield were acting weird? 19:30 dendro should be easily capable to get rid of both hydro and electro (i mean al-haitham's dendro, not hyperbloom)

People complain about climb in Liyue but the new regions in Sumeru are another level

Java, at the beginning of the video Katheryn was staring up Alhaithams You-Know-What

Yuki Rurikawa (瑠璃川幸, Rurikawa Yuki) participates in the Summer Troupe as a costume specialist and actor. He loves wearing cute feminine clothes. However, his personality is rather frank and brazen, and he often goes off at his seniors. After he did the costumes for the Spring Troupe's Romeo and Julius, Izumi Tachibana decided to invite him to the summer audition. Soon following, Yuki became a part of the Mankai Company.

I was like "Okay quality is not that bad" and then I saw the abyss lol

At 14:09 i thought my internet went off but he just stopped talking lmao

You should've added no purr intended in the title

A quick tip you can kill the oceanoid bird with kirara when you jump in cat box form

About Kirara healing: Kirara's Elemental Burst allows her to create a box with a giant cat inside that opens its mouth and launches small explosive boxes. These boxes will deal Dendro damage they will be redirected to the player if there are no enemies nearby. However, instead of dealing damage, the boxes will provide a heal.

Already know it's gonna be good!

Ok, so this is gonna take a bit of explanation. But I’m a MASSIVE Kirara Simp, and I’m building her as a DPS, most are building for shield, and you (I think) are gonna do Nilou. That’s 3 different versions, I LOVE Kirara SO MUCH. And I love the pun in the title, of of mine was “Kirara Is Purrfect, I would Sleep on the Meowch for Perr”

hyperbloom is usually better than nilou bloom without full investment for single and aoe so i would say hyperbloom 1st half with kirara alhaitham xingqiu kuki(PLEASE LEVEL YOUR KUKI to lvl 90 its like a 25% dmg bonus to hyperbloom and thats A LOT ) then second half could be ayaka layla idk nilou as hydro application cause there is no other option then kazuha ofcourse i hope this info is useful

"you guys annoyed yet?" me "nope! i love cat!"

That new desert area was last update and he didn't knew😂

The fact that the top of the screen was cut off annoyed me way more than it should

They Really Make HP Scaling Characters With No 4* HP Weapons... Kirara, Layla And Candace Are Crying😩

Java did you know the new honkai character jing yuan is erudition you should go on your Alr for him because I’m obsessed to seeing how the account turns out

Me when java posts::HE POSTED, HE POSTED, FINALLY :DD

Now everyone repeat: Portable Teleport Waypoint!

Hey look he’s still got the funny puns

hey java, for the hydro mimic birds you can just jump in her cat form and it will reach them

you are my favorite youtuber because you never say bad words ☺☺☺☺☺☺

Greetings, Java. I think that it would be better to seperate Alhaitham and Nilou for more potential on their sides. For Nilou you could go: Nilou, Xingqiu/Ayato, Dendro MC and Kirara. For Alhaitham you could go: Alhaitham, Xingqiu/Ayato, Kazuha and Kuki. There are also other teamcomps I recommend for the abyss (Perhaps not all good, but fun and still slightly meta): - *Sunfire Ayato* : Ayato - Jean - Kazuha - Bennett. - *Ayaka freeze* : Ayaka - Xingqiu - Kazuha - Layla/Kaeya (Or Qiqi, but less recommended). - *Aggravate Keqing* : Keqing - Dendro MC - Kazuha/Kuki - Kirara. - *Hyperfridge Kaeya* : Kaeya - Kuki - Xingqiu - Dendro MC.

For the assumption about the waypoint being unlocked by the story, yeah you have to do the new interlude archon quest

java always has the best commentary 😊

tbh I put a portable waypoint near the boss if you're okay with resources I really recommend abusing the hell out of those waypoints, it's so convenient haha

Mister Java you have the cat island kind of unlocked 👁👄👁

Hey Java, I just think that since you don't have any challenges since your characters are leveled up enough, I think you can spin a wheele to choose which character you will play for that spesific video and don't use other characters. It would especially be good when the Fontaine comes out I think

a way to see what shields the abyss boss will have, is you can see the lil orbs flying around the center

i have to agree, the new hilichurs are a pain, actually they are the reason why i can no longer do abbyss 11 on 9 stars and need to get 6-8 only... especially that i end up wanderer tean versus rhe aneno one which seems to have anemo resistance...

Hi about the standart banner: the new characters get to that banner after the release banner. You would have to wait for the next update

ITS ONLY BEEN 15 MINUTES AND THERES ALREADY 2K VIEW LIKE DANGGG ALOT OF PEOPLE WERE WAITING FOR ANOTHER VIDEO

I always enjoy your voice dude

remember the archery challenge? so remember praying for raiden to strike? soooo i was doing that commision an raiden struck! WHEN I FRICKING MAIN YOIMIYA!!!!!

I didn't see the difference in quality because my internet is always bad💀

1:17 that was cute actually not annoying

When Java uploads its always a good day :) Also 43 seconds early!!

You can actually kill the hydro bird using kirara like Skill: Xingqui - Skill Kuki - Skill Kirara - Skill and And just jump to the hydro bird it can also be perfect for hyperbloom without attacking them.

why was i raging when java was doing the baptist fight 💀

hi Java! The next part of the banners there are kazuha and alhaitham, would you pull for a weapon banner? there is a good support sword with ton of em also an alhaitham sword with crit rate that can be used on dps charactres! thats a very good opportunity to get one of the best swords!

*Him trying to find a cat* Me: What about the cat Irland???

Java,, when in the hold version of Kirara's skill, You can jump, dealing damage to the birds

I don’t know what it is but I feel such violent tendencies when I see someone besides me using Alhaitham

Oo! Oo! I can tell you what happens when you close the game when you get a 5 star! You still get it! I would know because I got Itto right after I lost the 50/50 to keqing... This was before Kazuha's banner as well. I thought it would be funny if I did a single pull.. and got Itto.

Me: If you think about it, you will understand it! Java: Oh! No wonder i do not understand anything...

I’m waiting for Jean yuan on erudition only😊

Hey java by the way, don't get discouraged because of the abyss, because even though you might be making progress, the abyss is only getting harder with every patch

Java, about grouping the hilichurls in abyss, walk to the ladder at the back of the room (spiral abyss background) and then come back
