⚡ Pro Tips

💡 Explore thoroughly - many hidden areas and secrets
💡 Upgrade your weapons and abilities regularly
💡 Use stealth when possible - resources are scarce
💡 Save before boss fights
💡 Complete side content for extra rewards
💡 Pay attention to enemy weaknesses
💡 Use the environment to your advantage
💡 Experiment with different playstyles

⚔️ Reaction Damage

  • Vaporize and Melt multiply damage - apply Hydro or Cryo first, then hit with Pyro
  • Freeze locks enemies in place and is the safest crowd control in the game
  • Overload knocks enemies back; it also knocks your own combo apart, so use it sparingly

🎒 Progression Priorities

  • Artifacts beat character levels after Ascension 4; a good Emblem set on a budget DPS clears the Abyss
  • Original resin caps at 160 and refills slowly - spend it on talent books, not ley lines, until you are AR45
  • Bennett, Xingqiu and Xiangling are the three four-stars worth building before any five-star

🗺 Exploration and Bosses

  • Unlock every teleport waypoint you pass; the map is too big to walk twice
  • Statue of the Seven levels give stamina - collect oculi before climbing anything high
