the feeling of opening genshin when a new region is out is unmatched

After only 84 days (~2.5 months) I have completely beaten all main endgame modes (MOC, PF, AS) completely F2P. The only time this account was used before 4.0 was when it was made and when I grabbed Archer, otherwise it is completely brand new. I used the free 5* selector to grab Sparkle and complete my Archer team, and I was able to pull his E1 early. All pulls afterwards were spent on E0S1 Yaoguang and E0S1 Sparxie. I decided on S1 YG over E1 because of the comfort and lower build requirements. In 4.2 I pulled E0S1 SW999 and used the relic event to get a build for her, and I used the spirit companion for a free Huohuo. I farmed important traces to at least 8 on supports and 10 on DPS, and otherwise camped the elation cavern, using relic remains to craft quantum and wind pieces. MoC was obviously the easiest mode to beat, with the turbulence doing half the enemies' hp and Nikador being a punching bag. I was surprised that the SW team was able to 1-star Kafka, I knew it was a favorable encounter for her but I didn't think it was *that* favorable. Similar situation with PF, SW was able to 40k one side while all Archer needed to do was 20k, which was surprisingly easy. The hardest mode was for sure Apoc, with that stupid bug that CCs you into oblivion. SW again carried cuz of shill while Archer was dragged along like a corpse. Still cleared tho cuz Apoc clear requirements are unbelievably low. The biggest gatekeeper was honestly weekly boss mats. Every major trace requires them and you're capped at 3 fights a week. Heck, I actually beat MOC and PF a week earlier, I was just stuck on Apoc since my RMC traces weren't leveled. I initially made this account to play elation since I was skipping it on main, and I thought I'd try to get a break team so I spent a spirit on Ruan Mei, but I later changed my mind so I ended up skipping, and now RM is just kinda benched, so that sucks. I definitely advise you to be more careful on spending them, since they're now willing to novaflare/add novaflared characters into shop, so you never really know when you might need them. Overall it was really fun getting to replay old story, one shot bosses that took me hours to beat in the past, and get to experience building a team from scratch again. I'm amazed at just how many free 5 stars they give us, I was able to build an entire team completely free and spend all of my jades trying to get elation. Plus the really well timed relic recon meant I had a much easier time getting a decent SW build. And my god the shill is insane. I could imagine clearing MoC or even PF without it, but Apoc was just absurd. Definitely the worst mode for beginners with how much of a unit check it is. My plan is now to save for Himeko SP, and by then I should have 3 teams, so I wonder how Anomaly/Starward will go. I'm so glad they're adding more endgame, it gives me a solid goal to aim towards. This was really fun and I'm enjoying it a lot. Sorry for the yap and thanks if you read this far lmao.
