Do you think they should buff Neuvi with Lunar or something?
no, I don't want neuvi to be pigeonholed into one single reaction, his versatility is his main strength. like i know ppl talk a lot about how he fell off, but its comparing to him on release when he was legit like ridiculous broken. if you had neuvi on release you had experience of just playing a world boss against the simple goons. genshin is a team-building game in many aspects, but on release neuvi could just ignore it, you could slap craftable 4 star weapon and literally any random dif elements teammates and he could clear abyss. with sig, he could solo abyss. like thats not normal on c0, no other character after him can do that c0.
and even like right now he's pretty good, you just need to play him in a good team, like idk, every other character asdfgh? on my f2p c0r1 neuvi literally carried me thru nod krai stygian bc i wasn't lucky to get any main dps, so him and ineffa literally carried. and i know for a fact that having neuvi here is better then like aino or fischl, bc in one stygian cycle where they had his dedicated crab boss and i had to take him off the team, i had to do like 30 retries on the fatui asshole without him.
what he needs is ways to HP buff. like. lets be so for real right now. there are now 4 bennets, like 5 dif support weapons that buff dps' atk, like 5 support sets that buff atk. there are Em buffers like sucrose or jahoda or nahida, several support weapons that buff EM, at least two support sets that buff EM. Even for defense that have like 2 limited dps that use it there are TWO dedicated defense buffers, there are sets that buff defense. Linnea's best set is old defense set instead of dedicated lunar sub-dps bc raw stat increase is just this valuable!
Now, how many HP buffers are in the game? ZERO. How many support weapons that buff HP are in the game? ZERO. How many support sets that buff carry HP are in the game? ZERO! The only way to buff HP right now is hydro res. And C0 neuvi has backed in punishment for having 2 repeating elements in his party, and still his best teams are double hydro bc it's literally the only way to buff hp and raw stat increase is just this valuable!
the way to bring neuvi back to hypercarry is literally just releasing at least ONE way of buffing hp on the level that all other stats have I'm not even talking having all 3, character, support weapon, support set, bc i know hoyo are scared of versatility and all op dps they release now are pigeonholed into one reaction and one specific team. same for buffed characters like rizzler and cyno and mizuki and yae. these buffs are easily predictable and controllable. and they are right to be scared of buffing neuvi bc even right now he clears sandrone boss in stygian with nahida hyperbloom c0r1! if they release any way to buff hp, esp if its support weapons or sets so it allows for flexible teambuilding, he'd be back at being c0r0 random teammates demon
like support set like tenacity, but for hp? 20% free hp? PLUS support set like nobless, plus another 20% hp? and any weapon like ttds, which is btw 3 star, but for 40% hp buff? BROTHER. they know they can't handle it.
