Just wait for the Adeptus faction buff, and then Zhongli will get attention. Though Venti did get stuck with a standard weapon first, and then Elegy. This one seems more like a Venti bis instead of a support bow that's great for anyone.

WHYHYHYHYHY! Zhongli still sitting on Vortex which does literally nothing for him and doesn't even get reworked and Venti meanwhile gets THREE Signature weapons. WHY? Isn't mihoyo a CHINESE company and isn't Zhongli the Archon representative for china? 😭
