Tips for playing Genshin Impact beginners need to know

It's been almost 2 years since Genshin Impact was released and the developer miHoYo is always trying to create a huge amount of new content. While this is great for older gamers who have been with Genshin Impact for a while, it also makes the game quite massive for new players. If you've just downloaded the game and are wondering where to start, let's find out the latest Genshin Impact meta tips that beginners need to know.

Tips for playing Genshin Impact beginners need to know

Do not collect characters in Inazuma

Players should start in Mondstadt then move to Liyue and finally Inazuma. While it's tempting to collect the Raiden Shogun or other characters in the banner, it's really not a good idea.

Genshin Impact restricts character enhancement materials and talent books for characters in their region of origin. As a result, players will not be able to level up Inazuma characters early in the game, as only Mondstadt and Liyue can be accessed at that point. Players need to reach Adventurer Rank 30 to get to the main island of Inazuma and even more to unlock the rest.

Aim for characters with multiple roles

In the early stages of the game, beginners often don't have too many characters to choose from. Therefore, if you decide to look for new characters, it is best to aim for versatile characters like Xiangling, Xingqiu or Bennett.

By upgrading these characters, players will be able to prepare a good squad for any characters they may collect later.

Build a diverse team to explore the world

Exploring the world requires different characters than the more advanced dungeons. While fighting in places like Luo Hoan Tham Canh, players are encouraged to build formations focused on a single element or reaction, exploring the open world requires variety. Players often need to use the elements to solve various puzzles and interact with items in the open world.

For example, a Cryo character is needed to travel through water, or a spear character is needed to mine minerals. Tall characters also swim and climb better than shorter ones. Everyone should also prepare a character that uses a bow and arrow to shoot enemies from above.

New character is better to upgrade the supply of destiny

New players should focus on expanding their character collection instead of upgrading the fate of existing characters. This will easily get everyone stuck with the same character. High level offers require huge spending, with a super low 5 star rate of 0.6%.

To dedicate the number of times to pray for the character Meta

Genshin Impact's Pity system basically guarantees players a certain number of character ranks after a certain number of times. Everyone is guaranteed to own a 5-star character after the 90th prayer on the character event banner.

Prayer times can be tracked by clicking the History button on the Prayer page. If the player is almost at 90x, it is important to delay the gacha spin and wait for the banner to have a good character.
