The New Spiral Abyss is awful
I really hope I’m not the only one who thinks this new spiral abyss is absolute hell. I mean I’ve never actually got all 36 stars on spiral abyss before I do know a lot of my characters still need work, but I can usually get at least 34 stars at best. Floor 12 I can typically get 2 stars per chamber and last one I got really close to getting all 36 but this run I came out with only 1 star for the entire floor. I haven’t done this bad on spiral abyss in months.
It honest to god feels character locked. I was running my Lyney Mono Pyro team for the first half Lyney, Bennett, Xinyan (cause that stupid Geovishap needs shielding and my LanYan isn’t built yet) and Venti for the gathering on that mushroom thing. The second half I was running my Lunar Bloom team Columbina, Nahida, Baizhu, and Aino. My Lunar bloom team even with Ascendant Gleam cannot take down that stupid abyssal dog thing. What the hell even is this boss??? The first time I’ve seen it was when they threw it in Imaginarium theatre this season and I could only even kill that guy last time borrowing someone’s C6 Mauvika. This time I can kill him in the time limit with my own characters but I didn’t get any stars in that chamber even though my Lyney team can take that first guy in like a minute and a half. It takes me the whole 8 and a half minutes left to kill that dog no joke. I don’t have Nefer or Lauma my only “moon wheel” or whatever character is Columbina.
I don’t even know what’s up with the other chambers I’m lowkey considering just trying to try different teams for each chamber by getting the stars in one then quitting and changing teams. That’s what my boyfriend did and he pulled 33 stars with characters less built than mine even. I know my Columbina needs work but I was able to pull 34 with her in the last spiral abyss so it still doesn’t really make sense. I think the only star I got was on the chamber with the geovishap but that was only one. I tried my Arlecchino team as well because I use a lot of shielding in her team which is Arrlecchino, Thoma, Diona and Layla (who I subbed out for venti in this run), with that one I didn’t have enough pyro application somehow in Chamber 1 even though I’ve never struggled on that with Arle’s team. That Dendro fungi guy was easy I killed him in no time with the lunar bloom team but I took too long killing the Primo geovishap so I only took one star on that chamber anyways.
Chamber three was a joke because I couldn’t seem to get Venti’s burst up for when I needed it for those mini guys to gather them even though my venti has never struggled for energy recharge and he was getting it up constantly when I killed this thing for the local legend achievements. I’m considering subbing him out for Kazuha. That crab is a joke too I also got the local legend achievements on this guy with the exact team I’m using now and I can’t even pull a single star.
I’m not sure if I’m looking for help or just complaining about this season at this point but if anyone does have advice I’d appreciate it.
