The Windblume Ode Passive Is Misleading (Initial Testing, Math, and Thoughts) | Genshin Impact



In this video I tested the new 4 star f2p bow the Windblume Ode. Despite the fact that the passive of this weapon states that the attack boost occurs after using an elemental skill, this does in fact apply to the elemental skill cast. I prove this in the video, do a damage comparison to The Stringless and share my thoughts on this weapon

  1. wait, doesn't 1 of Fischl's abilities say that if Oz is on the field when u use the burst that his duration picks up from where it left off? does the duration of big bird mode count on that timer? come 2 think of it, i'm not 2 sure how much up time he has after the burst off hand, since i may have timed it before but can't remember any details. it would b nice if someone could clear up this misunderstanding. thanks in advance 2 any that respond with any helpful info

  2. Nice, I was wrong that this bow was completely useless on fischl.

    I was wondering if I should level this bow if I just wanted to use it as weapon EXP material in the future. I did the math and realized it is cost effective to upgrade the weapon for the bonus EXP (only up to 70/70), even if you have to farm the weapon domain artifacts (provided you farm them at the highest domain level). The amount of resin needed to farm weapon materials and mora to ascend the weapon is roughly equivalent to if you spent that resin into crafting mystic refinement ores. I can't share URLs on youtube, but you can find a screenshot of this analysis on imgur by adding a slash followed by the id bYfeYzx.

    I did not include mora costs for ascension, but if you add in 20 resin for the leyline, they will both be at very similar resin costs, with the difference being that you have a levelled placeholder R5 bow.

    That said, it is equivalent to spending ~64 original resin on mystic ores, so prioritize based on whether you want the bow.

    I would recommend upgrading it to at least weapon level 70/70, which I think is the highest level you can go if you want to use this weapon to upgrade other weapons from 80 – 90 in the future.

  3. after I get venti to a good amount of energy recharge I think this is the bow for him. I can just elemental skill then burst with the 48% attack increase. this will increase his damage by quite a bit especially since I don’t think he’s scaled on attack in his artifacts

  4. literally got this bow on lv80 to compare with my other options, underwhelming but i hope it'll recieve a buff or something. good thing it was kinda cheap because of the 1.5x bonus on enhancement

  5. While I still haven't gotten my Venti, I did get a Stringless as one of the many 4*s on the way. I stopped using Fischl since I got Ganyu, but I sometimes use her if I need an Electro support DPS. It may still be a good idea to level up this weapon for her for that odd time when I use her.

  6. The first thing I did after getting it was test if the buff stacks, considering most items that do/don't stack state it in the description so I was sad to realize it doesn't stack.

  7. I will definitely be getting the Ode to R5, but I wonder if my R1 Favonius Warbow or the R5 Ode is better on my support Fischl? Still building her to be a solid support for my Diluc team, and maybe my Tartaglia team down the line

  8. Maybe I’m wrong but your video has become misleading
    In 1.4 patch notes says that now the damage calculations are updated live so the abilities are properly affected by bonuses even if certain ability is already casted

  9. The windblume ode is just kinda underwhelming. The passive buff just last way too little time. Besides fischl which can snapshot on any other character it’s doesn’t last enough time for it to be worth it.
