Genshin Impact — Region pricing differences on the same store

Third attempt at getting this right, so bear with me. Two settings appear to interact in a way the menu does not hint at.

Turning one setting down fixed it, which raises more questions than it answers. Thanks in advance to anyone who chips in.

This is the bit people miss — region and server load matter more than most guides acknowledge.

For what it is worth, you get most of the benefit from the first adjustment; everything after that is marginal.

Had the exact same issue. if it only happens in one mode, that narrows it down considerably.

Agreed on most of this, except region and server load matter more than most guides acknowledge.

Only partly related, but you get most of the benefit from the first adjustment; everything after that is marginal.

Worth a shot before anything drastic.

Only partly related, but keep a note of what you changed, otherwise you cannot undo it cleanly later.

Slightly different take — if it only happens in one mode, that narrows it down considerably.

This is the bit people miss — the defaults are conservative on purpose, so there is usually headroom to gain.
