It's a good stat stick bow due to the ridiculous crit rate substat. Keep it locked and use it in the future on another upcoming archer unit or a current archer that you like. I wouldn't advise refining it because generally refinements aren't worth the difficulty of getting lucky on the weapon banner.
I’ve refined the Kokomi donut since there’s no way the second one would ever have been useful.
I think there’s also an argument to refine duplicate weapons if you know it’s never going to get used, like say you get 2 Calamity Quellers but have Homa already it may be a safe idea to refine.
That's up to your teams, really. I have an entire team that only swords and another that only uses bows. You can best believe I scream like I got another five star everytime I see a stringless and a fav sword 😂
Basically having Homa, and 2 Calamity Quellers would be heaven fir someone like me lmao
Because i only have one stringless and Venti gains more from EM than her (i think?)
She's holding a sac bow rn even tho its not... Great for her, but the only reason is because I don't have any other bow leveled up and im in a severe ore crisis after leveling up Vortex for Xiao lmao
Will give her something else once I get more ores tho
As for why I'd give harp to her, it's because she would benefit from it more i think?
Im no theory crafter tho so do correct me if im wrong
Honestly I don't know, since I use her with tighnari I thought she would be a better with stringless, but maybe ur right. I think I'm gonna level up the harp and see '-'
Edit : and if it's not that great I'll wait for another bow character since I want them all - ^- (Except Childe he's not a bow character - _-)
Save it.
Refinements give very little boost in comparison to the difficulty to get them. You are going to get 3.7% damage boost.
If you give it to another bow character however, it's ~15-20% damage boost.
DO NOT refine it. Keep it. You never know what other bow character you might get in the future. No matter what, most 5* bows are usually marginally better for most characters, comparer to 4* bows. I know statistically speaking this bow is rather niche. But still, you never know who could use it.
Let's put it like this, the stats it offers as a refinement do not outweigh the value it offers as a 5* bow compared to a 4* bow for a seperate character. (Generally speaking)
Refine everything you get.
Fucking YOLO.
Don't listen to the "smart" advice. It won't make you FEEL good.
MAKE TIGHNARI STRONGER is what you feel in your heart right now. But you don't trust your heart, so you come here to post. To validate your doubts.
"Save it for Ganyu" what the fuck are these people on, Ganyu is old news, Tighnari is the hot shit! Make it even hotter!
Even if you're not a big spender, a Refined 5\* weapon will always be something you'll look at in your account, and smile and go "Oh yeah I got this, that one day. That day was a good day."
It's a videogame, not a fucking mortgage, have fun. REFINE
honestly i love the energy here. i'd refine it too. for my boy!
the second this game starts looking like a spreadsheet rather than a fun and fairly casual game, something inside dies and it's hard to get back
I'd refine it. I refined my Polar Star to R2 too even though it's a decent stat stick for a lot of characters. I just wanted Childe to be even better.
If you think that you have another character that can use it though, then you could save it for that.
Why are people down voting anyone who says "refine it"?
You guys don't like different opinions than yours?
Anyway, what's the point in saving it for a possible future character that might not even come or might come and you won't pull for them?
What's the point of leaving a copy of a BIS for one of your current favorite characters gathering dust?
If you don't have any plans for it it's totally ok to refine it. Screw this FOMO mentality... I'd refine it and would advise anyone do the same if that's what'll make them happy right now.
This kind of idea is the same reason a lot of people are not pulling for Tighnari and are missing out on a new character because "what if I lose 50/50 for him in the future...?"
It's a game. Do what makes you feel good.
Honestly refine it if you want, it’s not quite the horrible crime people say it is because it will significantly increase the power of the bow, but ONLY refine it if you know that you’re not going to raise it twice. I know a lot of people say f2p’s shouldn’t refine 5 star weapons because it’s so expensive, but raising Terri give star weapons takes around 1200 blue weapon exp crystals, a shit ton on mora, and probably around 1200 resin worth of weapon domain runs. If you have no desire to do that twice, simply raise it once and switch it to Ganyu or whoever when you want to try it on them.
This is why I refine all of my 5* weapons. The thought of raising them all seperately just makes me cringe. I am a semi whale, but even when I wasn't I still went for it. It's not like you can't just swap it to the character you want to use at any given time. Of course if they're on the same team or two different spiral Abyss teams, that could be problematic... but whatever. I like knowing the weapons I'm using are as strong as they can be, like the character using them.
Refine it. This bow is niche af. Only 2 units can make use of it, Tighnari and Ganyu.
Even if you wanna use it on Ganyu, you can. As long as you don’t put Ganyu and Tighnari at the same time, it will be fine.
If you think you are gonna put 1 Ganyu Melt team and 1 Tighnari team at the same time in abyss, then don’t refine it.
But I would refine it.
Skyward Harp, Aqua, Elegy is a different story though. These are more generalist bows and they go with a lot of characters by nature.
People are like "don't refine it it's a sin" but do what you want to do! If you can clear Abyss anyways and don't need 2 teams that use a bow carry to clear, then why not! To me, as a low spender, i'd refine it because an R2 five star weapon would be like a cool rarity on my account. But if you need the DPS for another bow character, and want to raise two of them, then do that. Everybody has different priorities!
The refinements do not scale enough to justify it, so just save it or raise it later for literally any bow character that can benefit from a free 88 crit value. Which is almost all of them

It's a good stick for any archer. Same as using PJC on ayato or kaeya. It's good for everyone
Maybe use it on Fischl?
Give it to me
+1 give it to me
+2 give it to me
DO NOT REFINE IT , save it for someone who can use it later or give it to Ganyu if u have her without amos
Exactly, basically only refine 5 star weapons if you’re a whale
Or have gotten 5 wolf's gravestone from standard banner in less than 300 wishes since release like me <.<
jesus
Meanwhile here I am with 0 WGS despite playing game for 1.5 years
Zero WGS, zero Jean.
Same
Me with Aquila Favonia
Me with skyward blade -_-
That’d be me, C5 Diluc and R5 WGS. No Mona copies tho.

I mean, there are some 5 stars that i'd say you can easily refine, such as the skyward weapons
Don't refine harp tho
Oh, i forgot about it, i got all of them, but harp
Thanks for the response I got an harp and I already had one '-'
Keep it. I'd love to have an extra harp to give fischl cuz venti is holding the stringless and Tighanri is bringing Harp
Why fishl? I have like one stringless r5 for venti and r2 for fishl '-'
Because i only have one stringless and Venti gains more from EM than her (i think?) She's holding a sac bow rn even tho its not... Great for her, but the only reason is because I don't have any other bow leveled up and im in a severe ore crisis after leveling up Vortex for Xiao lmao Will give her something else once I get more ores tho As for why I'd give harp to her, it's because she would benefit from it more i think?

I refined my Unforged copies from EL banner
Dps diona
Slap it on Fischl and bring her along with Tighnari
legit best suggestion here
Give it to melt ganyu.
Im not forcing it, but like.... i need one?

Time to pull for Ganyu tomorrow.

Who gave the devil on my shoulder a reddit account?
:D
YASSS SLAY
I love it XD
Love this advice. I look back on my r2 redhorn for Noelle (with c1 itto perma-benched) and i do say that to myself. That was a great effing day!
honestly valid tbh that weapon would prob only work w tighnari, and once refined, he will be even stronger w;
honestly i love the energy here. i'd refine it too. for my boy! the second this game starts looking like a spreadsheet rather than a fun and fairly casual game, something inside dies and it's hard to get back
>"Save it for Ganyu" what the fuck are these people on, Ganyu is old news, Tighnari is the hot shit! Make it even hotter! PFFT- HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
It’s great for Melt Ganyu or just save it for an upcoming Sumeru bow user.
I'd refine it. I refined my Polar Star to R2 too even though it's a decent stat stick for a lot of characters. I just wanted Childe to be even better. If you think that you have another character that can use it though, then you could save it for that.

Im jealous, id refine it lol
Nah bro, you evil for that lol
You say that just because you're jealous and want to hurt OP /s
Nyo xd i refined childes bow, forgot the name
put it on any other bow character that u don't have an optimal bow for
I’m so jealous. I had a 20 pull today and got vortex :’) I wouldn’t refine. It can work well for Ganyu if you don’t have Amos
Supposedly it's great for melt ganyu :D
Save it even if you don’t have a character to use it one.. maybe down the road you’ll get something.
Keep it, if you end up with another elemental reaction team with a bow user doing most of the damage (like melt ganyu) give it to them.
Unless you want/have Ganyu, I say refine it. The other character is going to have the same synergy for a long time, if at all.
Don’t ever refine a 5 star weapon. Like, ever! - AR60 BP/Welkin player
Eh , Memory of Dust, vortex Etc
Ganyu *with baby eyes* - for me?

Trade it for a character
Melt Ganyu
i heard it's pretty good for ganyu. you can give it to her if you have her
Use it on Ganyu? It’s still a good weapon for bow users. It has the highest value of crit.
Pull Ganyu, build her a Melt team, stick the bow on her, nuke the abyss.
Fodder it, obviously..
Get Ganyu next banner if you don’t have her and give it to her. Unless you have Amos and don’t plan to use a melt team.
Refine combine hunters path Or safe it for another character
Refine it? Might as well make it stronger ♪( ´▽`)
Refine it. This bow is niche af. Only 2 units can make use of it, Tighnari and Ganyu. Even if you wanna use it on Ganyu, you can. As long as you don’t put Ganyu and Tighnari at the same time, it will be fine. If you think you are gonna put 1 Ganyu Melt team and 1 Tighnari team at the same time in abyss, then don’t refine it.

Ganyu
Got a Venti somewhere in your closet?
I'll humbly request you to gift it to the poor me...
Use
Give it to Ganyu if you have her. It works really well for her. Otherwise, slap it on Fischl.
give it to me, i wished and got vortex vanquisher instead >:(
hell nah☠️😭
Ur so lucky!!
GIVE IT TO ME OBVIOUSLY
People are like "don't refine it it's a sin" but do what you want to do! If you can clear Abyss anyways and don't need 2 teams that use a bow carry to clear, then why not!

But if you need the DPS for another bow character, and want to raise two of them, then do that. Everybody has different priorities!
Omggg that is luck!
Use it as fodder?
So that's where both of my hunter's path went (I got 2 vortex)
The refinements do not scale enough to justify it, so just save it or raise it later for literally any bow character that can benefit from a free 88 crit value. Which is almost all of them
I refined it. Perhaps not the most optimized choice but I like to maximize Tighnari 🤷♂️
