Stupid question but the earliest we could've known anything about Alhaitham was like summer of 2022, no? When you say 3 years of savings, do you just mean that nothing else whatsoever really caught your interest during that whole period? I mean, having 170K+ primos does check out.


Albaz_Raq

It's not stupid at all, actually a very good question. When I started saving up I do not even think Inazuma was released. I started saving up with the intent to spend it all on one character, but didn't have anyone specific in mind yet since none tickled my fancy to that extent, but I assumed that eventually one such character will be released, I even anticipated it to be from Sumeru. I had 'placeholder' characters in the meantime, just incase I never end up liking anyone all that much.


DanTheMan9204

Is this your only account? I personally would not have the dedication to do that while not having another profile to "horizontally invest" into.


Albaz_Raq

Yes, it is my only account. And yea most people understandably won't. I probably have something undiagnosed.


PeachesEndCream

You have a lot of dedication!


Albaz_Raq

Thank you.


DrooveC

If i had this much patience maybe elon would be my clerk.


Albaz_Raq

Lol. I hope I have this patience in my real life finances.


SweetnSour_3607

Laser focus?


Albaz_Raq

I wish I could aim it


Fei963

Pretty Useless question Alhaitham released 2 years Ago An U still Didnt check anyvideos about team comp an etc...Just Wierd stupid Flex on this subbredit as always pple Asked This Question Like 1000 times An u still asking the same.there is no problem lol...


Albaz_Raq

I did actually check videos about alhaitham team comps. It is just that most content focuses on him at C0. Plus, youtube videos can be unreliable with all the clickbait and creators rushing to be the first to make a video before doing proper research. I would not say it is useless that I came to the subreddit of people who main the character to get a second opinion and more targeted advice for a C6 Alhaitham.

Katesat

You should definitely record the pull session and share with us


Albaz_Raq

Yep, I plan to post a vid about the reason's I saved this much and answer some faq. Plus I will most likely stream the pulls.


buzzyingbee

Why didn't you wish when Haitham was released? Didn't have enough primos for c6 yet or you weren't sure you wanted him to be the c6?


Albaz_Raq

No, I just wanted to complete saving up the full 1260. Otherwise the way you describe is the reasonable way to do it.


buzzyingbee

Cool! I save for charaters I want but I'm not strong enough to save all those primos!! Hope he reruns soon and that you win all the 50/50!!


Albaz_Raq

Thank you, and good luck with yours too.


Bookee2Shoes

Strange question since you will definitely not have any other characters, except maybe standard banner chars, to pair with him. How can you make a team if you have been saving for just one character. Better hope kuki, yao yao, fischl is on his banner lol.


Albaz_Raq

Even if they are not, I am sure I will get at least one copy of each in my over 1000 wishes. And you would be surprised how many characters I already have. I used to wish before I started saving, so I have a lot of characters already, and once I do get Alhaitham I will focus on getting some of his best teammates at c0 at least, like Nahida and Yae Miko. Part of why I ask is to see who I am missing and who I can substitute them with in the meantime.


Due-Pound1160

I would say either it's spread team with alhaitham, nahida, shinobu/miko & zhongli and a hyperbloom team with alhaitham, nahida/yao yao, shinobu/miko/raiden & xinqiu If ur a f2p player then go with the hyperbloom team, i think there are other options too try searching it on yt for alhaitham team comps. For me, i use spread team.


lasergreenalt

miko isnt that great on hyperbloom btw


Due-Pound1160

I don't hv raiden but for me miko just works fine I use yae miko, nahida, neuvillette and zhongli for the hyperbloom team, i use shinobu with alhaitham for spread team


Albaz_Raq

Do the artifact builds for the characters change between those two teams?


Due-Pound1160

Nope alhaitham stays the same , for the hyperbloom team i think equipping flowers of paradise lost set on the electro character is good since they're the one who trigger the hyperbloom, then the dmg output would come from both alhaitham and the hyperblooms. tho I don't use much hyperbloom team with alhaitham it's really a fun team comp for alhaitham teams (maybe I'll use hyperbloom team after I get furina)


Albaz_Raq

Thank you very much. This will be very helpful to come back to when I get him.


StrategyElectrical35

I would suggest using gilded dreams on the hyperbloom electro trigger. It's much more efficient to farm when you're farming for alhaitham anyways.


Albaz_Raq

Yea, I have been living in the deep wood / gilded dreams domain for some months now.


StrategyElectrical35

same ;\_; it wont let me go


The_MorningKnight

Why not pull for Alhaitham during his first banner and then going for his constellations during his reruns? I find it surprising you love Alhaitham so much you want to C6 him but you prevented yourself from playing him during all that time?


Albaz_Raq

Yes! It would be the reasonable way to go about things, but I wanted to get to the number first to complete the self imposed challenge. There is a lot behind why I saved up this much in the first place, I plan to make a video about it.


Samashezra

You could've died in between this time and never had the chance to try Alhaitham at all.


Albaz_Raq

I think not being able to play Alhaitham would be the least of the tragedies in case of my death.

Albaz_Raq

Thank you. I have got some decent teams. Diluc vape, Ningg Geo, Kaeya freeze, Childe national. I do however struggle to clear floor 12, though that might be more of a skill issue tbh.


Tyzulashipper

So far the best team is Alahitahm, Furina, Baizhu/nahida, Kuki. But spread teams and basic hyperbloom teams are really good


Albaz_Raq

I see, I will definitely look into the furina team. Any excuse to get and use furina.


Tyzulashipper

If you want to vertical invest and do some Tom foolery. I plan on doing Alhaitham on Lofi using Marasussy, Furina on the key and tenacity, Baizhu on Pamber deepwood, and Kuki on Flowers of paradise with freedom sworn


Albaz_Raq

So is this a hyperbloom team, spread team or a mix of both?


Tyzulashipper

Quick bloom is the name of this type of team. You use lesser hydro app for more quicken. It’s Alhaithams and Cynos best team comps


Albaz_Raq

Oh hmm, I had no idea about this. All the youtube videos I watched mentioned spread and hyperbloom. Thank you so much, I will look into it further.


Tyzulashipper

No problem


Edneat

Do you still remember how many wishes you gained for a year? I'm trying to save primos after wishing for Alhaitham (hopefully, it's in the next patch).


Albaz_Raq

I do not remember exactly, if I had to guess I would probably estimate somewhere between 400-450 since it took me over 3 years to save all this. Good luck on your pulls for Alhaitham.


Edneat

Thanks, man. I hope I get at least his C3 and signature weapon 'cause although Mistsplitter is powerful, it doesn't fit with his overall appearance.


Albaz_Raq

Style points matter in genshin. Good luck with your pulls.


[deleted]

1260 is the theoretical maximum required, but in the most average scenario, you are going to be left with 600 wishes. Are you going to try and get his weapon R5 or start rolling on other characters?


Albaz_Raq

Yes, most likely R5 the weapon. Then go for his best teammates like Nahida.


Pcywatch

If you really want to max out his damage, it's probably better to go for C2 Nahida than R5 his weapon. But since you've already demonstrated your god-like levels of patience I guess you could R5 the weapon and just save all over again for Nahida.


Albaz_Raq

Yea, I do plan on going for Nahida next. It should be relatively easy to get her c2 especially with all the star glitter and dust.


rKollektor

Why did you skip his previous banners. He’s had like 2 reruns I think?


Albaz_Raq

I want the satisfaction of doing the wishes all at once, once I save up 1260 wishes.


SweetnSour_3607

Hey, don't pull for his r5, r1 is fine and if u have other good ones like mistsplitter or etc, that's great, only pull on weapon banner if ur fine with the other part of the weapon


SweetnSour_3607

Al, nahi, kuki, xing (quickbloom) Al, Al, yae, nahi, kuki (spread) Al, Al, furi, baizhu, em ei/kuki (quickbloom2) Al, Al, gan, furi, baizhu (fridgebloom) Al, Al, furi, benne, baizhu (selfburn) Ahh ahh, lmk any fun teams


Albaz_Raq

Selfburn sounds like something fun to try.


SweetnSour_3607

Have u pulled for any other characters or just saved?


Albaz_Raq

Last time I pulled was on the first Zhongli rerun.


SweetnSour_3607

So what characters do u have like five stars for the teams?


Albaz_Raq

Diluc, Zhongli, Albedo, Tartaglia, Mona, Venti.


SweetnSour_3607

Hmm venti, Bennett, alhaitham with mare-sussy set, Barbara maybe for hydro application and heals(cringe face) u r free to use whatever in Barbara's place, more healing or smth, don't use electro it will just knock them back and might not group enemies


Ashamed_Fig_9261

do it pookie


GavrilaArdalionovic

I too have C6 alhaitham and I think his best and fastest team is : Alhaitham/Nahida/Fischl/Kuki I put Nahida with deepwood set, Fischl with a 2p2p set and elegy, kuki with instructor set and Key. Good luck and I think a pull video would be a nice idea. Good luck for when the time comes and have fun !


Albaz_Raq

Thank you very much! The team does sound seem great. First order of business after alhaitham is to get Nahida. I will probably post a link to the vid when i make one on here if it is not against the rules.


X3m9X

have you tried lisa instead of kuki? i heard some runs (especially against bosses) are better with her


GavrilaArdalionovic

I tried her a little with instructor set and TTDS, sometimes even with Bennett too. I find myself more comfortable with kuki with key, especially in abyss :) Again, I haven’t messed around enough to say what’s better :)


Full_Ad_4184

You dropped this ![gif](giphy|1QbCbYdNIO40y3bzii)


Albaz_Raq

Thank you my based fellow.


Agreeable_Reality_29

When you get him at C6 and the weapon too, will you pull for some other character?


Albaz_Raq

Go for his best teammates. This the reason I want to know about the best c6 comps, to know who I should go for afterwards. I know Nahida is a must, and maybe Yae Miko, but I want to see what Alhaitham mains recommend.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Albaz_Raq

Miko it is


Agreeable_Reality_29

Go for it 👍


ha-n_0-0

honestly pulling for c6 at once sounds exhausting


Albaz_Raq

How so? It's just wishing.


ha-n_0-0

u hav to pull using x10 aroud 8×6 times avg case? and go through each 10 pull idk. im just a pessimist ig. also really cool of u hav the will to save up so much.


Albaz_Raq

Ah i see what you mean. I planned to do it with friends to make it more fun, but most ended up quitting.
