The Genshin Impact Version 5.2 "Exercise Surging Storm" event: A strategic challenge with bountiful rewards!
This tactical RPG-style event, part of Version 5.2's second phase, might initially seem complex, but its mechanics are surprisingly straightforward. The event offers generous rewards, including Primogems, making it a worthwhile endeavor. Let's dive into participation and rewards.
Event Entry Requirements:
To join the "Exercise Surging Storm" event, you need:
- Adventure Rank 20 or higher.
- Completion of the Mondstadt Archon Quest Prologue.
Start your event journey at the Knights of Favonius Headquarters in Mondstadt.
Gameplay Overview:
The event features helpful tutorials. Here's a quick guide:
Before each wargame, select Combat Units (your troops) and Stratagems (buffs/power-ups). Units have various types (AoE Damage, Flying, Ranged, Melee), each with strengths and weaknesses (e.g., Melee counters Ranged).
Analyze your opponent's lineup and adjust yours accordingly using the bottom-right effectiveness diagram. Remember, changing your lineup consumes Reinforcement Points, so strategize carefully.
Unit types explained:
- Melee: High damage absorption, slow speed.
- Ranged: Long-range attacks, low health.
- AoE DMG: Damages groups of units.
- Flying: Evades ground attacks, immune to certain damage types.
Leveling up units enhances their effectiveness. Repeat troop selection for leveling. Refresh Combat Units and Stratagems for better options. Elemental Reactions work as in the overworld – use them strategically.
Even losses earn Wargame Medals, redeemable for rewards. Winning yields more medals, but consistent participation guarantees rewards, albeit at a slower pace.
