  1. I believe in you Lily! I admit watching you take on the Eye of the Storm was kinda funny though, because you just moved so carefully lmao, when you gave up in chamber 3 was also kinda funny. In any case, you’ve got this! When you’re more comfortable with your hit consistency try aimed shot canceling (holding attack to charge instead of clicking the aim button), it’ll save you a lot of time if you are fast at targeting the enemy with aimed shot!

  2. Good effort! You tried where so many write off bows without thought. I see you aiming low on smaller targets. That's your best bet. At least on a miss the bloom will hit. Half of them don't have a "head" weak spot, anyway.

  3. I believe in you Lily! It looked like you were getting 'em aimed real well by the end! Although I play on PC I use a controller as well so I get how hard it can be sometimes. One little push too much and your aim is ruined.
    Also if you wanted to practice the timing of her shot's full charge you could try walking her across water as well. I know that sounds odd but as she's able to use freeze water without charging a skill like most characters you can learn the timing by shooting water, walking across the frozen surface while charging your next shot, and repeat. If you lose the timing and aren't aiming just the right way to the next spot then you fall in the water so it's good practice. It's what I've been doing because I have trouble timing charged shots. I was able to get over halfway from Liyue to the Pearl Gallery Ship after just a bit. Good Luck Lily!

  4. Fellow console user here and one that has Ganyu also.

    My aim is mostly decent and this due to playing a lot of games that are third person perspective (Games like Tomb Raider or Horizon Zero Dawn) as well as fps games.

    But going away from those things though, here are some tips for improving your aim with Ganyu:

    Firstly, try practicing with hilichurls. They're easy pickings, and are much more easier to hit than say, a Fatui Agent that not only stays invisible but just won't stay still.
    Another easy to practice enemy is the Ruin Guard due to it's huge weakness and rather slow movement.

    Secondly, try not to get close too much, an Archer is meant to be long ranged, not closed ranged, this heavily applies to Ganyu because of her somewhat ample charge time. If you can't hit at long distances, try mid-ranged, not too close, not too far.

    Thirdly, keep using Ganyu's flower, it is very helpful for distracting enemies and gives you time to pick off damage from enemies. If the flower's cooldown is a problem, then try freezing enemies, you have Childe, so apply Wet status, and hit them with a shot of Frostflake, and get a crit in

    And finally, don't rely too heavily on the frostflake arrows aoe, I noticed in the video that you just tend to hit the floor and let the aoe arrows do it's work. If you want to practice your aim, keep shooting the enemies bodies to train your reflexes and muscle memory. Eyes on the body, not the floor.

    Tl;dr of it is practice with easier mobs, keep your distance, keep distracting or hindering your enemies, and "hit the target, not the floor".
    I hope this will help somewhat, if not, don't worry, just keep at it till you get the hang of it. Skill doesn't just appear in a day or something along those lines.

  5. 3 ways you can speed up your 12-3 clear time:
    1. Move to one side immediately after starting the first half, then try to make it so that they'll charge into the direction of the wall. Doing so will save you some chase times.
    2. Immediately go forward on the second half. Same logic as above.
    3. Consider using Barbara/ Xingqiu on your second half's team and play Ganyu like a shotgun (close range), doing so will constantly freeze the mitachurls, and as a result, bypass their shields + cc + make it easier to aim.

    Di-did you just juggled them up while using the elevator?! That was sick!!

    As for improving your aim, turn your melt Ganyu comp into a freeze comp. It will save you so much time repositioning that bloody cursor! But if you are still daring, I wish you the best of luck!

  7. Hi, Lily
    I hope this helps you cause i'm also playing ganyu as dps on PS4
    For her Charged Shot if you want to try using animation cancel you can try swap attack button (O) to R1
    Disclosure: It can't achieve fast animation cancel like PC User and it also needs the player to get used more to it
    But from my persepective it is better than always holding l2 for her charged in certain situation (Permafreeze using Xingqiu Ult)
    Oh also this is done using full sensitivity on aimed shot camera
