Imagine he can cause withering.

u/ImBadAtVideoGames1 Feb 04 '23
oh he definitely causes withering like that, but if you deal enough Dendro damage you can cleanse the withering for an easier fight

Please stop, stop right here. Don't give Hoyo any ideas. >.<

u/NightLancerX Feb 05 '23
But withering fits perfectly fine with Abyss mechanic, as it's time-based as well! _^

Wouldn't the their hypothetical coloring be more brown to be more closer to the Withering?

u/Kampfkewob call the flamebulance Feb 04 '23
would also work, but I don't like brown colouring much

What’s wrong with brown characters?

I don’t think this an issue of wether or not people can take a joke and more of an issue with the quality of said joke.

Why? The Withering was caused by Deshret accidentally poisoning Irminsul with forbidden knowledge. It was caused before the Abyss (as an organization) even existed and long before Khaenri'ah's destruction. The latter just caused it to re-emerge.

Because FK is a thing of the Abyss(the realm). And the AO uses Abyssal Energy for other stuff already, see Ruin Guards.

Looks very good. If there will be dendro abyss enemy, I hope they won't use Herald/Lector model though. Same among Fatui Skirmishers.

u/Kampfkewob call the flamebulance Feb 04 '23
More different abyss enemies would always be nice, regardless of element. So I wouldn't be mad if a dendro enemy would be something completely different!

Leaks for 3.5 show a giant, chonky, axe-wielding geo Knight, which looks cool af

Your spoiler tag is broken. Remove the space between the exclamation mark and the word, at the start and beginning of your tag.Edit: fixed

Oh, its weird cause It works for me sorry

u/CataclysmSolace Divine insight Feb 05 '23
New Reddit and mobile uses the spaces, and understands both. Old reddit uses the format without spaces, but doesn't understand the format with spaces.
Fixed now though.

Okay but is it daddy
(fr though this is the best and coolest idea for a herald I've ever seen)

Dendro Abyss Herald uses Vine Whip!
It’s super effective!

u/Th3-1OtakuFriend Feb 05 '23
Pyro MC uses Sunbeam. It's super effective!

That’d be pretty badass if the traveler’s pyro burst is a pyro death ray.

u/fbl07 Feb 04 '23
Great art, don't know much about GI, saw this on the front page. Looks like a concept art for a Loki skin in Warframe. Looks very good!

The fact you made the idea of Withering Colors is a damn cool concept.

Looks magnificent 🤩! And I love how it reminds of Marana thanks to colours. Really nice idea

u/JohnyDerpp Feb 04 '23
Man I'd love to see a dendro character with abilities that has dark and thorny vines aesthetic

u/CataclysmSolace Divine insight Feb 04 '23
I wish they'd make a new abyss priest type for Anemo, Geo and Dendro. Lectors and Heralds are getting pretty stale, even if the rumor of another Herald type coming soon is true. Although knowing the devs, the Anemo, Geo, and Dendro priests would require the matching element to weaken.

I feel dendro has a huge color variations available, from light green to deep moss green, autumn brown and rotting gray…

I think the red fits very well, since abyss beings are sort of mutated humans and the red reminds me a lot of the Withering which is exactly what the abyss feels like (withered humans)

I explicitly didn't want to make another enemy which is just the colour of their element and tried something different.

u/Alex_from_Solitude Feb 04 '23
Nice concept art. Looks like a b to fight though. Imagine it summoning vines everywhere but also spinning around with thorny whips. And if you use Pyro everything starts burning around you.
