Key Takeaways:
- Genshin Impact’s recent Quality of Life Update accidentally buffed a character to the extreme.
- The character in question is Barbara, who now has infinite resurrection in Spiral Abyss.
- Previously, Barbara had a hidden cooldown of 15 minutes for her resurrection ability.
The Unintended Buff:
In the video, kettletoro explains how Genshin Impact’s Quality of Life Update inadvertently made Barbara’s resurrection ability completely broken. Prior to the update, Barbara’s C6 ability allowed her to bring someone back from the dead every 15 minutes. While useful, the cooldown was quite long. However, with the new update, the cooldown is reset upon clicking retry in the Spiral Abyss, effectively granting Barbara infinite resurrection. This unintended buff has drastically changed the gameplay dynamics, making Barbara an overpowered character.
Impact on Spiral Abyss:
The unintended buff to Barbara’s resurrection ability has had a significant impact on the Spiral Abyss. Previously, players had to carefully strategize and time Barbara’s resurrection ability to maximize its effectiveness. However, with the update, players can now abuse the infinite resurrection to breeze through the Spiral Abyss without any consequences. This has led to an outcry from the Genshin Impact community, who argue that the unintended buff has disrupted the balance of the game mode and made it too easy.
Developer Response:
As of now, there has been no official response from the developers regarding this unintended buff to Barbara’s resurrection ability. It remains to be seen whether they will address the issue and release a patch to rectify the situation. In the meantime, players continue to take advantage of Barbara’s infinite resurrection to their advantage, while others express frustration over the broken mechanics.
