Genshin Impact, with its breathtaking open world, deep lore, and intricate combat mechanics, has captured the hearts of players worldwide. For newcomers to the International Server, the vast world of Teyvat can be overwhelming at first. But with the right strategies, you can grow from a novice adventurer to a seasoned pro in no time. Here’s a detailed guide to help you get started and master the game.
1. Getting Started: The Basics
Choosing the Right Server
Select a server based on your geographical location to minimize latency. If you're an international player, pick the server that aligns with your time zone for smoother gameplay.
The Traveler's Choice
At the start of the game, you’ll choose between two protagonists: Lumine (female) and Aether (male). The choice is purely cosmetic, so pick your favorite.
Focus on Questing
Archon Quests: These are the main storyline quests that unlock new regions and game mechanics.
World Quests: Side quests that offer rewards like experience, mora, and resources.
Daily Commissions: Unlocked at Adventure Rank 12, these provide significant Adventure Rank (AR) experience and primogems daily.
Leveling Up Your Adventure Rank
Your Adventure Rank (AR) determines what content is available. To level up quickly:
Complete quests and commissions.
Open chests and explore the world.
Participate in Domains and Ley Line challenges.
2. Building Your Team
Core Team Composition
Build a balanced team of four characters to handle different challenges:
Main DPS (Primary Damage Dealer): Focuses on dealing the most damage.
Sub DPS: Provides secondary damage or buffs.
Support: Offers healing, shielding, or utility.
Elemental Enabler: Creates powerful Elemental Reactions.
Recommended Starter Teams
Beginner-Friendly Team:

3. Mastering Elemental Reactions
Elemental reactions are the cornerstone of Genshin Impact’s combat. Combining different elements creates reactions that amplify damage or provide utility:
Vaporize/Melt: Triggered by Hydro + Pyro or Cryo + Pyro, significantly increases damage.
Overloaded: Electro + Pyro causes an explosive AoE attack.
Electro-Charged: Electro + Hydro deals continuous damage over time.
Frozen: Hydro + Cryo freezes enemies, immobilizing them.
Pro Tip: Use characters with complementary elements to maximize damage through reactions.
4. Exploration and Resource Gathering
Unlock Waypoints
Activating Teleport Waypoints across Teyvat reduces travel time and unlocks fast travel.
Collect Anemoculi and Geoculi
These orbs are scattered across the world and are used to upgrade Statues of The Seven, increasing your stamina and providing rewards.
Farm Resources
Gather plants, minerals, and enemy drops. These resources are crucial for leveling up characters and crafting weapons.
Solve Puzzles
Teyvat is filled with environmental puzzles that reward you with treasure chests. Always explore thoroughly and interact with glowing objects.
5. Enhancing Your Characters
Leveling Up
Use EXP materials like Hero’s Wit and Adventurer’s Experience to level up your characters.
Weapon Upgrades
Equip characters with the best weapons available and enhance them using enhancement ores.
Artifacts
Farm artifacts in Domains to boost character stats. Equip sets that complement a character’s abilities, such as:
Gladiator’s Finale for attack-based DPS.
Noblesse Oblige for support characters.
Ascension
Ascending characters and weapons unlocks higher levels and increases base stats. Collect materials by defeating bosses and exploring.
6. Domains and Spiral Abyss
Domains
These dungeons offer rewards like artifacts, weapon materials, and talent books. Choose a Domain that matches your current needs.
Spiral Abyss
A challenge mode with increasing difficulty, the Spiral Abyss is the ultimate test of your skill. It provides valuable rewards, including primogems, for each floor completed.
7. Advanced Strategies
Energy Management
Energy is required for Elemental Bursts. Use characters that generate energy particles or equip energy recharge artifacts.
Dodging and Timing
Master dodging to avoid enemy attacks and save healing resources. Utilize invincibility frames during sprints or Elemental Skills.
Co-Op Mode
Play with friends to tackle difficult bosses or Domains. Co-op allows you to combine characters for even more powerful elemental reactions.
8. Tips for Efficient Progression
Daily Commissions: Complete them every day for Adventure Rank experience and primogems.
Resin Usage: Use Original Resin for Ley Lines, Domains, and boss fights to earn resources.
Plan for Events: Participate in limited-time events to gain exclusive rewards.
Use an Interactive Map: Tools like Genshin Impact’s interactive map help locate resources, treasure chests, and puzzles.
Becoming a pro in Genshin Impact International requires a mix of exploration, combat mastery, and strategic planning. By focusing on team building, resource management, and understanding game mechanics, you’ll quickly rise from a beginner to a master adventurer in Teyvat.
