Hit AR32 today. Building characters is quite a chore post 40. I was originally planning on leveling all characters that I like around the same time when I hit level 40. Then I decided to just stick with my core team at 50. Now I was just barely able to max out my "main" character to 60 with uncapped weapon and leveled talents. I think I spent upwards of 1.2 million Mora to get that far just from level 50. Absolutely brutal. I realize that the game isn't a race but I wish the Mora cost didn't scale up so quickly and so high. My artifacts are all sitting around +8 as well, it's going to be probably a few hundred thousand to level those up each.
This resource deprivation seems so counter intuitive to how a gacha based game should work. Like they should want you to keep pulling for characters, so making it such that you can only max out a single character before bankrupting yourself seems like a bad business decision. I certainly am not pulling anything else until I have better resource income. I think all of this could be alleviated if Resin regenerated faster or you had more ways to get it, or hell, even a higher max resin cap so you could stockpile it. I've been spending those resin refills we get on AR rank rewards on the Liyue leylines that give Mora, and they're a lot better now that I'm in world level 3. Still, you can only run 3 until you're out of Resin again.
The only other thing I'm a little pissed about are those elemental shards given by elite world bosses (bosses like the cubes, the big vine things, etc). When I hit world level 3, I thought I'd be showered in those resources, or at least get 3-4 per run. Turns out you get 2 of the boss-specific material, but they only give a single elemental shard and zero elemental nuggets. I fought the electric cube boss 4 times since hitting world level 3, and he hasn't given any nuggets at all. How the hell are you supposed to rank up new characters you pull if the world level increases so that the early materials don't drop anymore? There are a few in the specialty shops in the big cities, but once those are gone, it doesn't look like they reset. Has anyone found another source of the nuggets? (elemental shards with the green rarity)
