Genshin Impact Exercise Surging Storm Event Guide and Rewards
Dive into the strategic depths of Genshin Impact's Exercise Surging Storm event, a key part of Version 5.2's second phase! While initially appearing complex, this tactical RPG-style event is surprisingly straightforward and offers a bounty of Primogems and other valuable rewards. Let's explore how to participate and maximize your gains.
Event Entry Requirements:
To join the fray, you'll need:
- Adventure Rank 20 or higher.
- Completion of the Mondstadt Archon Quest Prologue.
Start your journey at the Knights of Favonius Headquarters in Mondstadt.
Gameplay Mechanics:
The event begins with helpful tutorials. Here's a simplified overview:
Before each wargame, strategically select Combat Units (your troops) and Stratagems (buffs/power-ups). Units have diverse types (AoE Damage, Flying, Ranged, Melee), each with strengths and weaknesses (e.g., Melee counters Ranged).
Analyze your opponent's lineup beforehand. The bottom-right diagram shows unit effectiveness. Adjusting your lineup costs Reinforcement Points—use them judiciously!
Key Unit Roles:
- Melee Units: High damage absorption, slow speed.
- Ranged Units: Long-range attacks, low health.
- AoE DMG Units: Damage multiple units simultaneously.
- Flying Units: Evade ground attacks, immune to certain damage types.
Leveling up units enhances their performance. Repeat unit selection in subsequent rounds to level them up. Refresh your Combat Units and Stratagems for better options. Remember, Elemental Reactions play a crucial role; strategize accordingly!
Even losses earn you Wargame Medals, accumulating towards rewards. Winning yields more medals, but consistent participation ensures reward acquisition, albeit at a slower rate.
