Genshin Impact Exercise Surging Storm Event Guide and Rewards

The Genshin Impact Version 5.2 Exercise Surging Storm event: A strategic challenge with bountiful rewards! This tactical RPG-style event, part of the second phase of Version 5.2, might seem complex initially, but it's surprisingly straightforward once you understand the mechanics. The generous rewards, including Primogems, make it a worthwhile endeavor. Here's a guide to participation and the rewards on offer.

Event Entry Requirements:

To participate in Exercise Surging Storm, you need:

• Adventure Rank 20 or higher.
• Completion of the Mondstadt Archon Quest Prologue.

Begin the event by visiting the Knights of Favonius Headquarters in Mondstadt.

Gameplay Overview:

The event starts with helpful tutorials. Here's a summary:

Before each wargame, select Combat Units and Stratagems (buffs). 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 unit effectiveness diagram (bottom-right). Remember, changing your lineup consumes Reinforcement Points, so strategize carefully.

Unit types explained:

• 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.

Level up units by re-selecting them in subsequent rounds. Refresh your units and stratagems for better options. Elemental Reactions function as in the overworld; utilize them strategically.

Even losses yield Wargame Medals, redeemable for rewards. Winning earns more medals, but consistent participation guarantees rewards, albeit at a slower pace.

Rewards:

The event offers Primogems, Hero's Wit, Character Talent Materials, and Mora. Here's a breakdown of rewards based on accumulated Wargame Medals:

Exercise Surging Storm runs from December 18 to December 30 (3:59 server time). Don't miss out on these rewards!
