Guys i want the best tip for the pull !!!

i havent seen enough things about zibai to talk about her but ineffa-columbina combo seems promisingly future proof. they're both off field and works together very well, in my experience an off field combo works really well as a foundation to mix and match teams.

pull for who you like!! that’s honestly the most futureproof decision you can make because if you end up disliking the play style or the character‘s lore, you won’t be motivated to build them and it won’t be as fun.


but long story short

Zibai

\- geo characters have tended to be not meta for a while, mostly because their best supports (usually) have to be c6, their kits and weapons are very specific and not exchangeable with other characters and energy tends to be an issue. Worst case, you‘re gonna need to run a mono geo team for energy recharge. If Columbina’s the only one providing hydro aura and enables all lunar reactions, then you might end up having some of the reactions proc’d by other characters instead of Zibai
\- stat balancing is harder on geo characters cause a lot of them need both DEF, ATK, ER and CRIT all at once
\- on the bright side, most geo teams are pretty straightforward to play and tend to be a bit more tanky, so best case, you might not need a dedicated healer. also, there are very few bosses with more resistance to geo specifically
\- Zibai will probably only need Illuga, and not really any specific 5star. If C6ing him is imperative to his usefulness, then it will be harder, but assuming you’re lucky and that he doesn’t need that many cons to be playable, then you could probably get an extra Zibai con for yourself
\- there’s been rumors of a Liyue-specific buff like Hexerei for Mondstadt. Whether Zibai is included in this is not completely sure (good chance she is tho) but if you like to gamble, then she’d probably be really buffed

if you like zibai as a character significantly more than flins or ineffa, then go for it :>>



Flins/Ineffa

\- electro/lunar-charged has been pretty buffed recently, and is also easy to build because it only really requires EM and CRIT, which is why it is more accessible to F2P. If you don’t want to grind for too long. Also because if you really wanted to, you’re not restricted to only that reaction, unlike geo which can only do crystallize.
\- Flins, Ineffa and Columbina would be a premium team and built right, will probably allow you clear a lot of endgame content really fast. You’d have to save significantly more primogems to get Flins, though.
\- Ineffa is a really amazing buffer and support, and even absent Flins, you’d probably still be able to run a super strong lunar-charged team with just her and another electro dps that does lunar damage via Columbina
\- Polearm DPS don’t tend to have very good f2p weapon choices. You might need to invest more into getting Flins signature.
\- The only real downside I can think of about electro/lunar-charged as a reaction is that it loses some (?) of it potential power against single target bosses, but I think abyss has started to lean more into having waves of enemies, considering last abyss.

at face value, flins/ineffa are faster and easier to build and have more accessible supports, so they might be more future proof. If you’re really concerned about the meta but still want zibai, I’d say you should pull for flins/ineffa/columbina and just get zibai on her rerun:3 happy wishing!
