Swords are the perfect example of an overall great weapon in Genshin Impact . They are quick, have fun combos, and do good enough damage that elemental reactions are not always necessary. Some of the most powerful weapons in the game are part of this class, and they can make a world of difference. However, it is the characters that make Swords as strong as they
This is especially true if players are trying to use melee weapons to hit their opponents rather than long-range options. Because Catalysts and Bows have auto-tracking projectiles, hitting Electro Cicins is easier. On the other hand, melee weapon characters in Genshin Impact require repositioning and running after the opponent in hopes to land strikes. It is quite literally like trying to kill a mosquito and fail
Swords have some of the game's best and most comprehensive range of characters. Supports like Bennet, Kazuha, and Xingqiu are constantly popular picks that amplify a team's damage. Genshin 's Sword weapon type is also home to some of the best DPS characters like Ayaka, Nilou, Ayato, and Alhaitham. Overall, this weapon offers a variety of characters that can fill multiple roles in teams and be used at the highest tier of com
Bows have some of the most flexible gameplay in all of Genshin Impact . At first, they may seem like the standard weapon that fires basic and charged attacks, but they have the potential for much more. Small combos are intertwined into the basic attacks to make them more appealing, while charged attacks will be infused with the characters' element. Bows are also the only long-range weapon of the five, making them crucial for specific situati
Enter the ruins and talk to Nasejuna near the giant battery. After the dialogue, you'll see two closed doors and one path, as shown above, apart from the path where you entered from . Enter the door in the open path and it'll close behind you. You'll see some frozen Rifthounds and a blocked mechanism near the next d
The Black Sword's passive ability heals Ayaka and increases her Normal and Charged Attacks' DMG. Additionally, the Crit Rate increase is highly valuable to her since it allows Ayaka to use a different artifact set such as the Noblesse Oblige for better Burst dam
There is likely no enemy in Genshin Impact more annoying than the Hydro Abyss mage. Among all types of mages, the Hydro version is the most troubling one to take down. It starts off with the fact that mages have shields, so players have to effectively take the shield down before they can actually deal damage. The problem with Genshin Impact 's Hydro Abyss mage , however, is getting in close enough to deal damage. Not only does this opponent teleport around, like any other Abyss mage, but it also has two distinct moves that can trap the player inside water bubb
The location cards get a major gadget Optimization guide upgrade, introducing Tenshukaku, Sumeru City, Vanarana, Chinju Forest, and Sangonomiya Shrine. Some old friends like Dunyarzad and Rana join the five new NPC cards, while the Red Feather Fan and Treasure-Seeking Seelie swell the ranks of the Item cards. With the inclusion of the Archons into TCG comes a new type of card, which players can add to their deck if they have two characters of a given reg
Since Kirara is a 4-Star character, the Version 3.7 banners will all be reruns of older 5-Stars. Many players hope this will include Eula, the 5-Star Cryo claymore user from Mondstadt. Eula has not been featured in a banner for multiple updates. Since Mika, a Physical Support and a subordinate in Eula's division of the Knights of Favonius, has been released, fans expect that Eula is not far behind. Sadly, current banner leaks say Eula fans will have to wait for her ret
Getting around these bubbles without getting caught inside them can be an extremely infuriating experience, as most of the battle will be about being careful and breaking out of traps rather than fighting. Hydro Abyss mages are the most annoying enemy in **Genshin Impact ** – and if they are paired up with a Cryo Abyss mage, they become all the more annoying, capable of incapacitating players through Freeze, along with the bubb
The reveal of Kirara, the 4-Star Dendro sword user , has generated a fair amount of hype, as she is the first Dendro character hailing from Inazuma. This makes Mondstadt the only available nation to not have a known Dendro user. For a long time, players thought she would be a 5-Star Geo character named Momoka connected to Asane Shrine, the cat shrine on Seirai. This rumor was supported by leaked character builds showing Kirara with a Geo Vision. However, this has been chan
The other downside of Claymores is the lack of powerful characters it has gotten. There was a time when Diluc was one of the best DPS choices, but that has passed. Eula is a decent Claymore user, but besides her long time without a rerun, she is mainly a physical DPS. Itto is also decent, but he needs a specific pure Geo team built around him to be usable. Besides those big names, others like Noelle, Beidou, and Dehya have such niche uses that they are often not worth using over other charact
