    It doesn't, it's just a flat correction based on level difference between you and the enemy. If you're not doing Abyss I'd ague it's even more pointless to 90 a character, because the bigger the level gap, the more it would matter. You can nearly get 1 character from 0 to 80 for the Mora and Wits it takes to get one character from 80 to 90. Timestamped video for the level correction formula:



    Levelling a character from 80 to 90 is basically the least efficient use of resources in the game. You can do it, but you'd get more out of doing literally anything else, including levelling a talent on that character.

    I would like to add one thought: leveling 80->90 is worth it for hyper carry dps characters since level is taken into account in the damage equation. everyone else can be left at 80 unless you feel like leveling them for some reason
    Far from it, but thanks. lol

    Others already responded, but I don't think it is either. I have the characters I like at 90, but that's more of a personal choice as opposed to usefulness. My friendship team for commissions is usually 70-80 and hasn't had much trouble outside of having weird team comps that don't work.

    Mihoyo announced the characters for 2.4 (hope you like Polearms):

    Shenhe - Cryo Polearm
    Yun Jin - Geo Polearm

    2.3 banners also confirmed for starting tomorrow:

    5* - Albedo & Eula
    4* - Bennet, Noelle, Rosaria (same on each banner)

    Weapons:
    5* Freedom Sworn & Song of Broken Pines (get your own, Kas!)


    There's also a good 4* Sword for Albedo coming out from an event.

    Take it with a grain of salt, but there's a rumour that a new weapon type is being tested.

    4000 Cryo characters and still no Cryo Catalyst, booooo.

    Also Hydro is really getting the Electro treatment in 2.X. Shenhe is smokin' but she's gonna have to be Ganyu-level OP for me to pull her since I already have Ganyu and Ayaka.

    Note that it is worth it to ascend from 80/80 to 80/90, but you don't have to actually level because of the stated marginal increase in your dps.

    It really only hurts like three characters, two of which nobody uses anymore. It's bad for Eula, and Razor and Keqing (lol Pyro Keqing aside). It's also not great for Chonyung Melt Diluc I guess, but no one does that anymore either.

    I have C5 Bennet and am going for Albedo so I might get C6. I think I'll just activate it; I almost exclusively use Bennet in Childe setups anyway. Plus I think it would be fun to do weird things like pyro Keqing or Ayaka lol

    the glider is stupid and not worth it and the promotion is terrible for streamers and of course I bought it because I'm a whore for this game

    any other Albedo havers? this sword is hilarious. it's either BiS if you have him, or absolute trash if you don't lol

    Managed to get Eula and a C0 Bennet. Is it worth trying to fish for C1 Bennet, or is it generally fine to leave him at C0 for support stuff? I'm not really that keen on rolling for Albedo, so any more rolls I do would be just for C1 Bennet and a possible Rosaria really.

    I’ve had Albedo since his first banner and he’s been in my main party ever since. His new sword doesn’t seem as good as the one I was using before (4star one, can’t check which one it was atm). Hoping that when it’s fully levelled up that it’ll get better otherwise I’ll probably switch back.

    Saving my gems for the next banners.

    Rather than roll for C1 Bennett, is his constellation still in the shop? Maybe just go there instead.

    He's still in the shop, but I don't have enough to get it, unfortunately. Only have 20/34.

    There are some streamers on the list I was already following, so I'll get it since it supports them.

    I have Albedo but haven't got around to the new event yet. I'll have to try it out vs Festering Desire.

    Never try to roll for 4*s unless you also want the 5* in the banner. There should be multiple anecdotes in the thread, but for reference, I got 3 5* characters before I got my first Sayu.

    More constellations are good for him (C6 is the debatable one), but don't feel pressured into getting them. You'll do well enough with C0.

    All set for Goru & Itto mats to max ascend, so it's all artifact farming for them. 1500 purple books and 16 mill gil saved up.

    I had a few questions about this. Idk how Mihoyo operate but are they being stubborn on his c6 being so controversial since you cant toggle it? Like is there a reason why they haven’t buffed/reworked it?

    Also are there other traps besides c6 Bennett i need to be wary of?

    There's nothing inherently wrong with Bennett's C6 and I highly highly doubt they'll ever touch a 4* character after release. The best you can wish for is eventually giving us the ability to toggle constellations on/off, which is really only beneficial to people doing benchmarking/testing, or in this one really specific scenario.

    It's not really a "trap", and it's not necessarily exclusively an issue with Bennett's C6.You just need to be mindful of any character that can provide an elemental infusion to another(off the top of my head, this only currently applies to C6 Bennett, and C0 Chonyung). Some characters have elemental/physical damage bonuses built into their kits, either as Ascension bonuses or as passive talents (Ayaka, Eula, Razor primarily at the moment). Characters that do will lose a lot of damage if they're infused with another element instead. More recently a few characters that self-infuse have had their self-infusion made un-override-able (Kazuha C6, Raiden as examples).

    Bennett's C6 and Chonyung's E are currently only actually an issue for Eula and Razor, because so much of their kits are built around Physical Damage %.
