I've noticed that the community surrounding Genshin that helps newer players is just incredible. I think Shark is the best content creator for people learning.
found your channel couple days ago. hotdamn. you are a treasure trove of knowledge. especially for us f2p players. but armed with your knowledge? i wouldn't feel bad about spending some coin on the game now. thx bro, you da man.
This has been hands down the most useful beginners guide for genshin I’ve ever watched! One thing I didn’t see mentioned that might be good for a guide is deciding what supports to level/team build. Unfortunately my team is super weak/immuned to electro 😢 so I’m trying to build a second team for electro bosses
Ah well thank you :) It's hard to says which characters are best since it's your team comp that matters overall, but some of the best supports include Bennett, Xingqiu, Sucrose, Diona, and Fischl.
@@sharkh3art brother I'm using kaeya , xainling, sucrose , Barbara and following you will this team help me go till Ar 45 ?? I have characters like (not including above mentioned) beidou , Noelle , diona , yun jin , aether, amber, Lisa I'm AR 27 NOW can you tell the perfect team i will make them as 2 nd team pretty please 🥺🫂
started playing genshin during the first week of feb, followed this guide and im now ar41 with so many resources and im dominating enemies, ty so much for the help, cant wait to farm artifacts and take on the abyss, this is such great content, subbed and liked
One minor thing I think you calculated incorrectly is sanity costs for ascensions. When you clear domains you get a lot of side drops that make the average cost go down, but when you are ascending only one main DPS, you typically won't need those side drops until much later, so just for ascending one weapon, you'll have to run the stage multiple times, going well above 40 resin. Another thing you should really touch on in this kind of video is teaching new players what systems generate resin-free value in Genshin and when they're unlocked. Things like always do your expeditions, commissions, bounties, and requests, and a brief overview of things you can do to get your AR to 25 or w/e to unlock them. Also Serenitea.
Thanks for this! I have an AR 60 account and created a second account to re-experience the world quests and it is so jarring for my characters needing to do half a rotation to kill one of those light blue Armored crab on Fontaine's beach to get their drops.
2:30 Putting talent level at 2 and character level at 4 is a bit misleading/not clear and may throw off newer players since you can only level you talents after ascending your character i.e. increasing character level.
O hey a guide that is not a confession of not being able to google in 2020.. (after watching like 7 guides that's what I feel many guides are, lol). Nice work!
I just want to show appreciation to Sharkh3art for creating content like this. Before when I just first started, everything's so hard for me to understand. Reaction, artifacts, weapon choice, etc. But as long as you're following this guide, everything will be easy/much easier even in the mid/late game. I'm on ar 42 now and still kicking challenges/domains while having fun 💟. Best TH-cam guide that I've ever seen, hands down 👌
time, it takes a day to have max resin. so every two days, you’ll have 5 condensed and max resin, use that to upgrade a character’s talents,ascension material, etc. like this guy said, build one character at a time, you can use fragile resin, but not most of it if you’re f2p. only use it when it’s necessary.🙏👍
I'm super new to the game and actually gaming in general (other than casual games) and this guide was super helpful. You're very right that the game doesn't explain much and I've had to either use trial and error, Google or TH-cam so far at the beginning. I started just leveling up everyone, assigning random artifacts and weapons, then realized what the artifact sets meant. Lol I really like Razor as my main DPS but my Traveler character isn't that bad to be honest. I just got Sucrose on a wish and keep seeing how good people say she is but it must be at higher levels? I'm still stuck on the Stormterror mission and can't beat Dvalin but I hope I can get there soon!! Now I have to look up talents to see what they are and how to use them.
Woo! I'm glad it helped! Sucorse is very good but she needs a special artifacts set which you probably won't farm until AR40+ so you can keep her in the back if you have other characters you like playing more :)
Coming back with AR30 to figure out why I cant do damage suddenly to find out I completely forgot you're supposed to farm artifacts 😌 I suppose this is not the last time I come back for a vibe check
I am a big fan of genshin and I know tge story and all characters but not the gameplay and so when it came to build my characters my friend told me I should watch a youtube vid abt it so yeah thanks
Thank you so much! I just started playing last weekend and I was worried when I can do what. Happened to have a 4 star feather in phase 1 already! Currently working on that first world ascension (am AR 18 now).
for the artifacts I will get the artifact set and level it even if it's not perfect since I know that it can take even months to get the perfect artifacts xD
:| 35-39 wasnt too bad, 40-45 is what really sucks for me. Im intentionally not increasing my world level bc frankly none of my teams can deal with the next world level
Hello, thanks a lot for this guide! I started yesterday, and have already corrected the mistake of distributing my levels to a bunch of characters. I feel a lot more back on track at AR10 with a main dps being built up. What I’m confused on now is party composition. My first question is, am I supposed to have a built team of 4 lvl 20 weapons + lvl 19 characters by AR 15? And secondly, how do I know which character goes well with my main, especially with the limited characters I have at my disposal? I’m afraid of building up 4 characters that don’t do all that well together and thus wasting time + resources :( Edit: lastly, will I ever have to worry about my AR and WL climbing faster than my character building process, or is that not an issue? Thanks again
Cool! I'm glad you found the guide early :) I also have a Start Strong Guide that could be a lot of help! It covers all the mistakes I made and how to avoid them. Your party comp can all be lv 19 with lv 20 weapons initially, but as I say in my start strong guide you want to then focus a main dps and invest in them and keep your supports about 10 levels under them (until your supports are all lv 60 ascended). The best way to know which characters go with your main are whichever ones can help make a lot of advantageous reactions. Elemental Reactions are the name of the game. That's something you'll have to play around with and figure out as there is a lot of variation between characters and accounts. But I would suggest focusing on a team that revolves around Melt, Vaporize, Freeze or Electrocharge. Those are the better reactions and generally it's easier to build teams around them. If your AR exp rises above your WL you can bank it and get all the exp when you ascend your WL so you don't have to worry about it losing AR exp.
I also re start the game by your guidance and I have another account with AR 40 . In this account I have 6 character 5 start but I have not build as properly so I can't survive My own world that's why I created the new account thanks for helping I'll continue my new journey
no hate, but it think these are the actual tips people need : 1. The Priority List Is correct butt 2. Focus On Getting Characters to 60-69 and *ascended* ,that's when they unlock their 2nd passive and it's very important for most characters, then focus on talents and weapons 3. don't even think about artifacts at all until ar 45, at this ar you unlock the lvl 90 domain so you are guaranteed a 5 star every run 4. Focus on 2 teams, one main team, and when that's pretty good another one, i reccomended having them cover each others weaknesses/having different dps elements so it isn't difficult to kill bosses that resist your main team (i got this problem fighting electro cube when i built a raiden national and beidou tazer at the same time lmao) 5. Have fun! of course having a good team is going to help you, but this is a game not a job, use characters you want and use teams you want do what you want
You are just so completely wrong it's hilarious. Max weapon level, max feather level, max level atk% main stats are the priority for the most damage increase. you're just completely ignorant to the video no? How're you going to get a character to 60/70 before getting the appropriate world level?
I actually disagree with the artifacts bit. On my two alts I got a bit impatient and farmed some artifacts before AR45. The key is to not use your fragile resin. If you just use original resin, it shouldn’t hinder you much. Players should still consider waiting, and not use any fragile if they can help it until they can get 5 star guaranteed artifacts. I mean, I’m someone who knows what I’m doing vs a player who’s just started out and doesn’t yet grasp how the system works, but if someone wants to do a little artifact farming using only original resin, it shouldn’t be majorly detrimental to their account. But they shouldn’t make artifact farming a focus. I also think it might be easier to focus on getting 2 mdps’s with 2 teams being an end goal for both of them, but not a priority. What I did with my Asia alt was level my 2 mdps’s, and a healer (and a second healer but early game I think this is optional). I prioritized one dps over the other but still made sure both were more or less even in terms of levels and talents. This I feel sets a comfy stage to eventually get 2 teams in working order, and it’s easy on resources. I think healer, dps, dps, and a support that compliments on of the dps’s or both is a good start if you can help it. Loosely prioritize one dps first so they can help farm for the others. But of course, everyone has their own method for working on an account. These things helped me but they might not be helpful to someone else.
almost a perfect step by step... the only thing that kind sus is... whenever ur world level get higher enemy lv get high and dps will decrease when fighting high lv enemy.. so having a 60 sup ( if u are only using to heal/shield is fine) VS a lv 88-90 (or if abbys 100 on floor 12) u gona do like 30-40% less dmg just because of diference of level , and y u ddint talk about unlocking the last ascension? literally , like u dont need to lv up to 90 (only if that char use hp on skill like zhongly ) just unlock to get ur character passive + get talent to lv 10 (i do lv up only the main source of dmg to 10 else is 9 ) for example hu tao u want to upgrade her skill zhongly ult for dps or skill for shield etc etc
Recently downloaded the game after quitting for 2 years, according to this I definitely hyper levelled without actually upgrading myself way to much lol. I hit AR40 with a single lvl70 and none of my weapons are past 60 and then all the gear is mid-low as hell
I've seen this advice about a main character before, but what do you do when you've put all your ressources into a char, or even 4 chars, and the you reach a boss or event that is just straight up impossible to do without another element? You can always switch in a weaker char, but then the game somestimes leads you straigth into combat with those low lvl chars.
As someone who has ayaka + mistsplitter, I am so screwed when it comes to farming mats. Herself, the weapon and the talents all require the stupid handguard or whatever drop the samurais drop. And it’s ridiculous how low the drop rate for green is, let alone never seeing a blue drop. I need to kill every single samurai on all islands just to do 1 thing, and repeat it every single day. Speak about tediousness.
I hit AR40 back in June and hit a hard wall. With how long anything took to kill, I ended up taking a break from Genshin, but seeing this video really inspired me to give it another go. I really appreciate how you've set this video up 😊 (ps: If one were looking for help on how to build a decent team with the characters they have... what would be the best way to find that?)
There are different sites that give you good builds for any character you look for, and some will also give you best teams for those characters. If you don't have all the characters of that respective team you can also switch some of them up.
AR 20 now, and i just realized that if i want to ascend Yae (my main dps) i need to go to inazuma XD i guess that wont happen soon. i just hope by leveling up her weapon and artifacts are enough to carry me until inazuma! XD
Which free character do you think is best to invest as Main DPS? I don't plan on spending money on the game. Any thoughts? Lisa and Amber seems good to me. Aether too. Plan on starting fresh again. Had played upto AR 29 back then.
I think this video is amazing but isn't talent level locked behind character level. Like you can only level your attack skills up so far till it tells you to ascend your character again.
It's locked behind character ascension level, which is why I say to ascend characters and then level their talents :) After than then you level them up to the next level cap. You're basically getting to the level cap just before you can ascend so you can immediately ascend but level to the new cap later.
Anyone F2P following this guide.. DO NOT BUILD ONE CHARACTER. You simply can't survive encounters without multiple. Domains require multiple characters to complete and without domains you can't upgrade gear. It is incredibly foolish to spend all of your gearing on one character to steamroll, it just doesn't work. Even if you have 3 others who are remotely close (like within 10 levels) but don't have artifacts high enough, you are screwed in numerous encounters. I have tried to build one character but got stuck at numerous points, I even have some of the better 4 stars many would recommend but none of the ones I actually want (haha fuck gacha), so it's not like I don't have capable DPS that can roll. I have proper gear too, mind you as a F2P, stats are relatively high, and mobs go down fast. But without elemental reactions, things will take FOREVER. Luckily Lynette just released recently which mitigates the need for an Anemo to pull off some explosions to wipe groups a lot faster (I got Sucrose so it's been easier). This guide IS a year old and honestly most of it seems relevant, but this was a point that needed addressing. Be very careful trying to dump one character as a steamroll attempt, it won't end well.
Does this guide and the Start strong guide in the description still apply ? I just downloaded the game and I'm wondering if this guide is still viable. thank you very much
Hi, I just started the game and I’m now AR8 I would like you to help me choose the main dps, sub dps and support, the characters I have are xiangling, yao yao, noelle and the main characters
Hmm I'd probably build Kaeya Xiangling Yaoyao and Dendro traveler. It's not a team with a lot of synergy but all the characters are good. When you get characters like Bennett, Xingqiu, Fischl, Beidou, Sucrose, or a 5 star or two you can switch the team up :)
I just (re-)started the game this weekend, after only playing a few hours during the original launch, so this video is coming out at the perfect time! Been unsure of the how I should be handling leveling (especially artifacts), so this video is going to be incredibly helpful. Can't wait till I jump back on and put it into practice.
@@SADJ1990 You can get to AR30+ in a just a few days which is where the mid game starts. It will take a bit longer to get to AR45+ which is when you'll seriously starting farming artifacts and begin the endgame journey to max characters and beat the highest floors of the abyss :)
@SharkH3art Truly the best guide. But it kind of assumes you will not change characters. My main DPS right now is Traveler and I am AR24. I know I will be dropping traveler as soon as I save enough to get something good on a banner.
@@spartanxxv Eventually: pick who you want and get to the AR you need to pre-farm them. before that: Build a character to be good enough to get you to that world level while still being able to actually grind the world itself.
I'm AR 50 now and have been following the advice in this video since I started playing, haven't run into any roadblocks thanks to you, this video is amazing for new players to understand the game!
I reached AR 30 and started having a lot of trouble with enemies. I found this guide, and it took a while to correct the initial problems I had, but now I’m at A35 WL 3 and am clearing everything easily. (haven’t increased world level to 4 yet) I’m just grinding a bit to gather some resources before I ascend my AR. This guide saved me from quitting the game out of frustration. Thank you!
It's actually nice to hear that weapons aren't all that expensive to advance. I've been avoiding it waiting for weapons I like, and at AR28 that's starting to catch up to me.
I started playing during Ayato's banner and basically did a speedrun to get to Inazuma ASAP in a week so I can both ascend him and join the Irodori festival. Got to AR 40 in 3 weeks and am now 46 after playing for about a month. I regret prioritizing character levels instead of weapon/talents so I was very weak when I reached WL 4/5. Didn't know that domains were time-locked. My weapons were all level 20 and talents at 1. But once I learned about them and upgraded weapons and talents, WL6 was significantly easier than when I entered WL5. I also regret not unlocking some bosses early (Raiden and Azhdaha) cause I didn't know they were locked behind story quests. Another thing I wish I knew early was getting my teapot to level 6 ASAP. It unlocks transient resin which gives 60 resin weekly. I'm definitely at Phase 7 of this guide. I've slowed down significantly chasing AR and just focusing on support characters and getting talents to level 8. I don't even have the time to farm for artifacts yet. lol. Thanks for giving me a goal!
How the hell did you get ar 40 in 3 weeks dam my best account is 22 and I played for like 2 months but I started a new one because I was more Familiar with the game but I probably only played 3 hours a day tops some days nothing at all or even multiple days so maybe thats probably why
@@dominicp9296 Just focus at main story dont over explore just unlock dungeons and tps always finish coms. Btw i started 5 days ago and im ar34 this video helped me a lot. Iam not missing any quest but now i miss sleeping😂. Additional tip go further to sumeru dessert and inazuma quickly to get more xp and quest. The only thing that hinder me is my fucking luck i already draw ~70 inc. blue draw still didnt get any 5 star char.
This is such great insight, thanks. I could relate to some of the struggles you went through especially before focusing on weapon and talent leveling. After doing so playing became much much more enjoyable.
I quit the game after AR18 just because I had no idea how to manage resources and ended up with literally nothing. Now I can return and build my Hu Tao properly. Thank you for this video
Perfect timing!! I have watched several videos about builds because even though I am AR 35, I felt like my characters were not strong enough. I watched this video a couple days after you uploaded it and here I am, nine days later, and my gameplay is so much smoother! I had to grind a little bit with domains and bosses in order to pick which characters worked for me and then fixed and built my teams like you said. Holy smokes, everything is much better! The ultimate test was when I had to fight Signora and Ei. I was able to use my two top teams. Thank you for helping me! Your videos are so helpful!
I started playing in October and this guide truly helped me a lot I'm now AR55 and all my fragile resins remain untouched, thanks to this video I handled my resources properly by leveling up only the characters and weapons/artifacts I need I suggest rushing to AR45 (although you might hit a road bump at Signora) to start grinding on Shimenawa/Emblem set, you can always do coop on this domain since a lot of players do Update: I finally beat abyss floor 12 on my 5th month of playing, but only 33 stars since I started lacking damage on my team 2 on chambers 2 and 3
What does that mean by your fragile resins remains unlocked? As in you’ve spent minimal fragile resin? Curious because my girl and I are always using it when we have it to grind out Cubes/Domains etc while only at around AR31…
@@nazkettu Yes I haven't used any of my consumable FRAGILE RESINS when I posted that comment. As of now I spent around 20+ FRAGILE RESINS because I had to rush on grinding Alhaitham and Yaoyao. I still have 94 in my inventory
You can speed it up by just making condensed resin the day before (I start the day before that day with leaving only 1 condensed resin so I get 5 total) and then have an additional 4 more condensed resin from today to spend on the day the talent book is on. Total of 9 condensed resins to use in the domain roughly 2-3 times a week.
For artifacts, it may be better to give artifacts with EM, ER, or health for specific support characters. For example, some shields scale with health, so boosting the health would make a lot of sense. Likewise, EM for characters like Sucrose, or ER for battery characters. In fact, some energy hungry units like XL will benefit from some ER as well. As for weapon, I think it would be good for beginners to become familiar with which weapons are good for who (XL is possibly the only broken one who can swing almost any polearm and get good results). Otherwise, giving the wrong weapons to the wrong characters will reduce the team's effectiveness. In fact, some of the 3* weapons are even pretty good too... ! There are public spreadsheets that document them, as well as character information at some well known Genshin sites.
You cant build a single character. I have a freeze ayaka team and i have no way to get her artifacts or ascend her since in both cases i have to fight ice enemies (with ice shields) which she cant kill
@@sharkh3art Hey man I'm already at ar45 and everytime I raise an ar rank I go back to this vid! You made my genshin experience so good as I've never faced a wall so far! Thank you!
Hmmm this makes so much sense and explains why I run into people with Lv 90 characters who can't get through Lv 90 domains (and get huffy about people bringing Lv 80 or lower characters) and I can get through the same content on my own with Lv 80 and 70 characters despite being an unskilled player (I'm not even lying, Super Mario is too hard for me). I started maxing out weapons and talents as soon as I could and then farming artifacts after that because you need like 20 boss drops for Lv 80 ascension, that's 300 resin you need to spend. I'd rather spend that resin else wear.
I wish I found this video when I was starting to play genshin, now I'm at 54 ar and I can barely kill the creatures of the world, but yea it's a very good video for someone starting their journey or someone like me. Thank you for making this!
You are welcome! The good news is that you can still recover. It will take some time but if you follow the principles in the video you'll be on your way to becoming OP!
one early main DPS I saw left out was chongyun, that boy damages so hard, without him my early Raiden and emblem set farming would have been a real nightmare. he pairs so well with the healers and if you have sucrose and Xiangling it's so much nicer early game. but tbh nearly every team combo you can imagine works nicely. just make sure they synergize decently
probably just not futureproof, building a bennett as a main dps is good early on because the level and talents you upgrade will even be useful as a support later on
@@rapsody230 early on you can just make him ur main damage dealer by investing in his levels and talents. even if u switch him to support later all those resources wont br wasted
I personally would make one adjustment in the AR50+ section. With the supports, I would prioritize artifacts over talent levels 7 and 8. At least for utility supports. Getting usable support sets on them will in many cases bring more value than those two talent levels (Noblesse, Tenacity, etc). If one of those utility supports is anemo, I would suggest getting any 4pc VV set on them as early as AR40 (the stats can wait but the set bonus is just that broken). One other tip I would reccommend is, any spare resin you have from AR30-40 ought to be used for extra talent books. There is less variation is talent domain rewards by AR than things like mora and Exp books and having extras will mean you can farm other things at higher AR (Mora, Exp books, artifacts). Over all this is a great guide for new players and well organized.
Updating my comment now that I reached AR51: as a note if you plan to edit or re-release a guide like this, note 18:04 the idea adventure ranks slowing down at 45 may no longer be the case for players who love World Quests. Between Inazuma, Chasm and Sumeru, there are now enough multi-stage world quests that if you for example spend a whole day entire working on quest chains as if this game was a regular JRPG, you can blaze through AR45-49 very quickly. I started Inazuma at AR44 and decided to do all the side quests I had access to, then I went to Sumeru to try Collei (without having finished the archon quest) and found a really fun world quest in there. After the Sumeru and Inazuma side questing, I was all of a sudden AR49 thanks to multi-part quests that had hundreds of adventure EXP per part. AR49-50 was essentially the anime training arc for me, only doing dailies, domains, and world bosses to make sure I wouldn't be underpowered for AR50/World level 7.
Yeah now there's sooo many world quests I think I might have to remake the video just to tell ppl to slow down around AR30-35 before the enemy difficult makes a huge jump. I'm working on updating another video first, and then this will be on my list ^_^
I just recently come back to the game and though, I’m not very informative towards the artifacts… I usually just slot whatever and that’s what made me have a hard time progressing the game. I also regretfully LVL’d my World to LVL 3 without stocking up artifacts / weapons so that’s a plus…. 😭 I decided to fix my build and hope that I can manage to get there some day. So I have a few questions : •is there a guide or video on where to farm 3 star artifacts before I can slowly climb my way towards the golden artifacts? •Is there also a video on where to farm 3 star weapons? That way, I can just use the duplicates to lvl up my main weapons.
I have been searching for this type of video for a long time but since I couldn’t find any I made a lot of mistakes after watching this I will continue building my character accordingly. THANK YOU MATE. 👍
While this guide is great a thing that most players should note I that at the very start of the game the weapons you get are 3 stars or some four stars that aren't viable on a lot of characters so instead of funneling resources into weapons that aren't very competitive you should focus on talent levels because as you progress and play events you might get great weapons for Characters that you might need to spend resources on to level up so I would suggest to focus on character levels and talent levels first as that is by far the best investment as no matter what its a permanent boost in power . Weapons in early game are shit that you will probably replace
Thank you, was looking for this comment. For instance I have Venti but his bow is less than ideal, also the guys says in his other video that I should ignore Ventis auto attacks...I mean how I ignore the auto attacks of the char I picked up for main dps? Why would I level his weapon? Makes no sense to me
I returned to genshin in 3.2 after not playing since 1.2 Thank you so much for the guide. Coming up on level 79 for my raiden shogun just working on the last talent and assentsion matts this week. Almost AR43. Thanks so much for this guide. Lifesaver
i just rerolled a new account because ayaka is really op and i made really bad decisions on my first account, this was perfect to have clear goals and objetives, thanks for the video!
focus on characters levels, weapons and talents, artifacts wont matter until you reach AT LEAST AR45 but you shouldn't really care nor farm them until AR50 when you get 5* artifacts guaranteed, then you should try and make an early well rounded team, so lets say 1 main dps 2 supports or 1 off field dps and 1 support and a healer, and you MUST fight the necessity of building more dps characters, at least thats what happenend to me, i always wanted to try new dps and at the end i found out i didn't have a TEAM to actually use them as they should or getting their full potential because every support i had was low level, low talents or with bad artifacts because i didn't care for them. so, basically: 1: FOCUS on talents, weapons and character level in that order as those as secured upgrades for your characters 2: DON'T farm or don't ''care'' for artifacts until you can farm 5* artifacts a 100% of the time you do farm them 3: BUILD A TEAM not only dps, since elemental reactions and certain skills from some character cam make or break a dps or a team completely @@sewshy5850
Hi! I stumbled upon this video not too long ago so I started a new account to test out your tips and tricks! I’m currently at AR 32 and I just wanna say this video is very very helpful and I no longer struggle during my lower AR, I can even do difficult quests like chi of yore and the dragonspine domain quest with much less struggles. Thank you so much for making this video I’d be recommending this to my friends who just started playing genshin! :D
Worth noting some characters benefit much more from being leveled to 90 than others. Generally HP and DEF scalers, anyone who is primarily built to do transformative reaction damage (full EM build like some anemo characters), and an argument can be made for characters who are built with some EM and do some transformative reaction damage (e.g., pyro characters in overvape teams). But idk what the DPS increase looks like for the last group compared to other things
Good guide but the prioritze are not good cuz i cant lvl talent if u dont lvl your character so idk ich would say 1. weapon lvl 2. character lvl 3. talent lvl 4. artifact lvl
Im currently in adventurer lv 19. I have Noelle (lv40), Fischl (lv39), Barbara (lv0) and the rest are around level 20. I have been using Noelle is the lead character. Now what do i do with my characters? Should i wait to get Xiangling and use her as main/support? Should i accumulate level up materials and save it for fischl and Noelle? Or should i stop levelling up Noelle and instead focus on Barbara and Fischl or xiangling? Also should i focus all artifacts on main lead character and support only? Or spread them all? Any tips plizz. 🙏🤝
If you enjoy using Noelle I'd level her weapon and build her first, then Fischl as she is a sub dps, and do the same for Xinagling when you get her. For Barbara I'd give the thrilling tales of dragon slayers and just make her a healer by increasing her hp and ignoring any damage potential she has.
Noelle is very easy to get constellations for, being a 4 star, and you can save your currency to buy her const in paimon shop when she's around. At C6 she becomes an amazing choice for a dps, all the while being good at healing and shielding. The weapon you can forge, the Whiteblind, at refinement 5 is essentially her best-in-slot, so if you have any claymore billets they should go to her weapon. Artifact sets for her are plentiful, and def rolls on them shouldn't be hard to get - it's worth it getting both ATK and DEF rolls on her substats, and DEF% on an off-piece
Me after watching this: Shit! I've been doing everything wrong. Me after i created a new account to do it perfectly: *still continues doing it wrong anyways*
This video is incredibly comprehensive and valuable! I just have one question though: at what point would it be appropriate to build a second dps character (if you pull for one or just have another character you really like)?
Thank you! Once you have your main DPS basically built you can switch to another if you have them. Usually that will be somewhere around level 60 or so. Alternatively, you can switch immediately and if your current main dps can be a sub dps you can have them fulfill that role.
I'm at ar35 and I legit can't beat the ascension quest. I'm gonna try and use this guide to help my team. EDIT: I BEAT IT😆😆😆😆 It took a day or so of building my dps the right way but i beat it😁 Really appreciate the people who make guides like this. Especially this one. Definitely subbing and will continue to look for your guides.
@@Diana-Cherry-Blossom It is explained in the video. The priority list is per world level. Since leveling the character is last on the list they will still be ready to be ascended when your world level increases.
@@Diana-Cherry-Blossom Because your initial comment, without further context, appears to be arguing that leveling the character is higher priority. It gave the impression that you hadn't watched the rest of the video or misunderstood the reasoning used.
I tried following this. Missed the laylines bit and was confused as to how tf do I level up my characters but this did help me feel more confidant in my play so that's nice
Really nice guide. Specially the significance of weapon leveling and artifacts leveling. Only issue I hv is that there won't be single main dps because as you progress through story and hit the elemental abyss enemies, you need counter elemental dps. So you need reliable 2-3 dps imo.
So i played genshin, when it released, till i was ar40 something. Then I quit cause it was getting too hard, even on lower world level. I was not watching any guides and was just playing willy nilly. Came back about a month ago and really dug in and started watching guides to see what i could do. My main problem is artifacts i think. Currently at ar 53 and only have enough 5star artifacts for 5 characters and thats it. I think im also lacking a main DPS. I pulled Klee and Jean and those are the ones i focued on. I loved the way you put priorities on what to do first to last. I'm starting to not struggle now but the fight is still real
I hate how playstation players have to make a whole new account if they want to restart its annoying. I had to make a new one since I messed up way to much

I've noticed that the community surrounding Genshin that helps newer players is just incredible. I think Shark is the best content creator for people learning.
every community has this
I f'ed up and used all my books for levelling up some side characters. Now I've to start grinding ley lines 😢
It's okay! I made the same mistake before and you can def recover :)
Holy shirt, man! I've been doing things all over the place, thank barbatos I just found your guide, still AR 21 here!
same im ar 23
found your channel couple days ago. hotdamn. you are a treasure trove of knowledge. especially for us f2p players. but armed with your knowledge? i wouldn't feel bad about spending some coin on the game now. thx bro, you da man.
Haha thanks! I'm glad to help!
This has been hands down the most useful beginners guide for genshin I’ve ever watched! One thing I didn’t see mentioned that might be good for a guide is deciding what supports to level/team build. Unfortunately my team is super weak/immuned to electro 😢 so I’m trying to build a second team for electro bosses
Ah well thank you :) It's hard to says which characters are best since it's your team comp that matters overall, but some of the best supports include Bennett, Xingqiu, Sucrose, Diona, and Fischl.
@@sharkh3art brother I'm using kaeya , xainling, sucrose , Barbara and following you will this team help me go till Ar 45 ??
I have characters like (not including above mentioned) beidou , Noelle , diona , yun jin , aether, amber, Lisa I'm AR 27 NOW can you tell the perfect team i will make them as 2 nd team pretty please 🥺🫂
started playing genshin during the first week of feb, followed this guide and im now ar41 with so many resources and im dominating enemies, ty so much for the help, cant wait to farm artifacts and take on the abyss, this is such great content, subbed and liked
I was googling for something like this last night and just happened across your video today. I'm going to get so much use out of this. Thank you!
Wonderful! You are so welcome!
Amazing video!! I was definitely building my characters backwards. This helped so much!! Already feeling a difference. Thanks!
Glad it helped!
One minor thing I think you calculated incorrectly is sanity costs for ascensions. When you clear domains you get a lot of side drops that make the average cost go down, but when you are ascending only one main DPS, you typically won't need those side drops until much later, so just for ascending one weapon, you'll have to run the stage multiple times, going well above 40 resin.
Another thing you should really touch on in this kind of video is teaching new players what systems generate resin-free value in Genshin and when they're unlocked. Things like always do your expeditions, commissions, bounties, and requests, and a brief overview of things you can do to get your AR to 25 or w/e to unlock them. Also Serenitea.
i love story quest but i was doing 6 damage at level 39, you saved me, literally been waiting for strangers to help me finish quest
Nice I'm glad to help!
I have been playing since May 2023 as a new player, and I reached AR55 in Sep 2023. This guide has helped me quite a lot. Cheers, SharkHart!
I've been following these steps and i just want to tell you that you saved me and thanks to you my gaming exprience is just better than when i started
Thanks for this! I have an AR 60 account and created a second account to re-experience the world quests and it is so jarring for my characters needing to do half a rotation to kill one of those light blue Armored crab on Fontaine's beach to get their drops.
2:30 Putting talent level at 2 and character level at 4 is a bit misleading/not clear and may throw off newer players since you can only level you talents after ascending your character i.e. increasing character level.
I just understood that. I tried doing exactly the way the video says and I could'nt level talents without ascending
O hey a guide that is not a confession of not being able to google in 2020.. (after watching like 7 guides that's what I feel many guides are, lol).
Nice work!
I just want to show appreciation to Sharkh3art for creating content like this. Before when I just first started, everything's so hard for me to understand. Reaction, artifacts, weapon choice, etc. But as long as you're following this guide, everything will be easy/much easier even in the mid/late game. I'm on ar 42 now and still kicking challenges/domains while having fun 💟. Best TH-cam guide that I've ever seen, hands down 👌
Thank you so much!
time, it takes a day to have max resin. so every two days, you’ll have 5 condensed and max resin, use that to upgrade a character’s talents,ascension material, etc. like this guy said, build one character at a time, you can use fragile resin, but not most of it if you’re f2p. only use it when it’s necessary.🙏👍
Yep you get 180 resin every 24 hours so def use that first and save that fragile resin
I'm super new to the game and actually gaming in general (other than casual games) and this guide was super helpful. You're very right that the game doesn't explain much and I've had to either use trial and error, Google or TH-cam so far at the beginning. I started just leveling up everyone, assigning random artifacts and weapons, then realized what the artifact sets meant. Lol I really like Razor as my main DPS but my Traveler character isn't that bad to be honest. I just got Sucrose on a wish and keep seeing how good people say she is but it must be at higher levels? I'm still stuck on the Stormterror mission and can't beat Dvalin but I hope I can get there soon!! Now I have to look up talents to see what they are and how to use them.
Woo! I'm glad it helped! Sucorse is very good but she needs a special artifacts set which you probably won't farm until AR40+ so you can keep her in the back if you have other characters you like playing more :)
@@sharkh3art thank you!!
heck yeah! finally someone gave me some structure I was looking for all over YT to not wander dungeons aimlessly
Haha I know the feeling and that's the reason I made this guide lol
Coming back with AR30 to figure out why I cant do damage suddenly to find out I completely forgot you're supposed to farm artifacts 😌 I suppose this is not the last time I come back for a vibe check
I pressed as soon as i saw the thumbnail (lv1 noob - lvl90 boss)
Doesn't look like a click bait to me.
Haha
I just started a week ago, and i see that I've messed up quite a few things lol
Thanks for the guide. Currently AR13
Glad I could help!
I really wish I watched this before I started playing. I’m ar 36 and can’t do decent damage to save my life. 😐
Aww well you can still use it for the future!
I am a big fan of genshin and I know tge story and all characters but not the gameplay and so when it came to build my characters my friend told me I should watch a youtube vid abt it so yeah thanks
starting my genshin journey today
Best of luck!
Why you have so less subscribers you deserve more bro
Thank you! Much appreciated! ^_^
This a 11/10 informative guide
TY! ^_^
Thank you so much! I just started playing last weekend and I was worried when I can do what. Happened to have a 4 star feather in phase 1 already! Currently working on that first world ascension (am AR 18 now).
REALLY IT HELPED A LOT
(THANK YOU)
MY PLEASURE!
for the artifacts I will get the artifact set and level it even if it's not perfect since I know that it can take even months to get the perfect artifacts xD
:| 35-39 wasnt too bad, 40-45 is what really sucks for me. Im intentionally not increasing my world level bc frankly none of my teams can deal with the next world level
That's a good idea. The range can be a wall for sure.
I swear I’m actually so slow I wanna start playing but idk where to start- and I keep constantly dying💀
Hello, thanks a lot for this guide! I started yesterday, and have already corrected the mistake of distributing my levels to a bunch of characters. I feel a lot more back on track at AR10 with a main dps being built up.
What I’m confused on now is party composition. My first question is, am I supposed to have a built team of 4 lvl 20 weapons + lvl 19 characters by AR 15?
And secondly, how do I know which character goes well with my main, especially with the limited characters I have at my disposal? I’m afraid of building up 4 characters that don’t do all that well together and thus wasting time + resources :(
Edit: lastly, will I ever have to worry about my AR and WL climbing faster than my character building process, or is that not an issue? Thanks again
Cool! I'm glad you found the guide early :) I also have a Start Strong Guide that could be a lot of help! It covers all the mistakes I made and how to avoid them.
Your party comp can all be lv 19 with lv 20 weapons initially, but as I say in my start strong guide you want to then focus a main dps and invest in them and keep your supports about 10 levels under them (until your supports are all lv 60 ascended).
The best way to know which characters go with your main are whichever ones can help make a lot of advantageous reactions. Elemental Reactions are the name of the game. That's something you'll have to play around with and figure out as there is a lot of variation between characters and accounts. But I would suggest focusing on a team that revolves around Melt, Vaporize, Freeze or Electrocharge. Those are the better reactions and generally it's easier to build teams around them.
If your AR exp rises above your WL you can bank it and get all the exp when you ascend your WL so you don't have to worry about it losing AR exp.
@@sharkh3art you’re a lifesaver, subbed 🙏
@@MO-zk8qs Thanks!
I also re start the game by your guidance and I have another account with AR 40 . In this account I have 6 character 5 start but I have not build as properly so I can't survive My own world that's why I created the new account thanks for helping I'll continue my new journey
I'm glad to help :)
came back after 2 years....still consider a newbie, looking for people who can help me out on map exploration and boss fight
no hate, but it think these are the actual tips people need :
1. The Priority List Is correct butt
2. Focus On Getting Characters to 60-69 and *ascended* ,that's when they unlock their 2nd passive and it's very important for most characters, then focus on talents and weapons
3. don't even think about artifacts at all until ar 45, at this ar you unlock the lvl 90 domain so you are guaranteed a 5 star every run
4. Focus on 2 teams, one main team, and when that's pretty good another one, i reccomended having them cover each others weaknesses/having different dps elements so it isn't difficult to kill bosses that resist your main team (i got this problem fighting electro cube when i built a raiden national and beidou tazer at the same time lmao)
5. Have fun! of course having a good team is going to help you, but this is a game not a job, use characters you want and use teams you want do what you want
You are just so completely wrong it's hilarious. Max weapon level, max feather level, max level atk% main stats are the priority for the most damage increase. you're just completely ignorant to the video no? How're you going to get a character to 60/70 before getting the appropriate world level?
I actually disagree with the artifacts bit. On my two alts I got a bit impatient and farmed some artifacts before AR45. The key is to not use your fragile resin. If you just use original resin, it shouldn’t hinder you much. Players should still consider waiting, and not use any fragile if they can help it until they can get 5 star guaranteed artifacts. I mean, I’m someone who knows what I’m doing vs a player who’s just started out and doesn’t yet grasp how the system works, but if someone wants to do a little artifact farming using only original resin, it shouldn’t be majorly detrimental to their account. But they shouldn’t make artifact farming a focus.
I also think it might be easier to focus on getting 2 mdps’s with 2 teams being an end goal for both of them, but not a priority. What I did with my Asia alt was level my 2 mdps’s, and a healer (and a second healer but early game I think this is optional). I prioritized one dps over the other but still made sure both were more or less even in terms of levels and talents. This I feel sets a comfy stage to eventually get 2 teams in working order, and it’s easy on resources. I think healer, dps, dps, and a support that compliments on of the dps’s or both is a good start if you can help it. Loosely prioritize one dps first so they can help farm for the others.
But of course, everyone has their own method for working on an account. These things helped me but they might not be helpful to someone else.
you help sooooo much thank you bro !!!
My pleasure!
almost a perfect step by step... the only thing that kind sus is... whenever ur world level get higher enemy lv get high and dps will decrease when fighting high lv enemy.. so having a 60 sup ( if u are only using to heal/shield is fine) VS a lv 88-90 (or if abbys 100 on floor 12) u gona do like 30-40% less dmg just because of diference of level , and y u ddint talk about unlocking the last ascension? literally , like u dont need to lv up to 90 (only if that char use hp on skill like zhongly ) just unlock to get ur character passive + get talent to lv 10 (i do lv up only the main source of dmg to 10 else is 9 ) for example hu tao u want to upgrade her skill zhongly ult for dps or skill for shield etc etc
At 2:29, I could be wrong bc I haven’t done it in awhile,, but in order to level the talents doesnt the character lvl have to be raised-?
Recently downloaded the game after quitting for 2 years, according to this I definitely hyper levelled without actually upgrading myself way to much lol. I hit AR40 with a single lvl70 and none of my weapons are past 60 and then all the gear is mid-low as hell
Don't worry you're definitely not alone and the good news is you can always recover!
Lmao, same. The max I leveled my weapons was level 20.
I've seen this advice about a main character before, but what do you do when you've put all your ressources into a char, or even 4 chars, and the you reach a boss or event that is just straight up impossible to do without another element? You can always switch in a weaker char, but then the game somestimes leads you straigth into combat with those low lvl chars.
As someone who has ayaka + mistsplitter, I am so screwed when it comes to farming mats. Herself, the weapon and the talents all require the stupid handguard or whatever drop the samurais drop.
And it’s ridiculous how low the drop rate for green is, let alone never seeing a blue drop. I need to kill every single samurai on all islands just to do 1 thing, and repeat it every single day. Speak about tediousness.
^ one of the reasons why I'd not bother pulling for Ayaka.
The Samurai drops are shit, even those big and bulky electro/pyro samurais ends up dropping a single old handgaurd most of the time… its so annoying
@@meikaguya2376 and how stupid tankly they are too (almost always needing burst) yeah it sucks.
I hit AR40 back in June and hit a hard wall. With how long anything took to kill, I ended up taking a break from Genshin, but seeing this video really inspired me to give it another go. I really appreciate how you've set this video up 😊
(ps: If one were looking for help on how to build a decent team with the characters they have... what would be the best way to find that?)
There are different sites that give you good builds for any character you look for, and some will also give you best teams for those characters. If you don't have all the characters of that respective team you can also switch some of them up.
AR 20 now, and i just realized that if i want to ascend Yae (my main dps) i need to go to inazuma XD i guess that wont happen soon. i just hope by leveling up her weapon and artifacts are enough to carry me until inazuma! XD
Thank you so much !!!!
You're welcome! ^_^
Which free character do you think is best to invest as Main DPS? I don't plan on spending money on the game.
Any thoughts? Lisa and Amber seems good to me. Aether too.
Plan on starting fresh again. Had played upto AR 29 back then.
I think Kaeya is the best free character to use since he has good scaling and is still good even at end game.
I think this video is amazing but isn't talent level locked behind character level. Like you can only level your attack skills up so far till it tells you to ascend your character again.
It's locked behind character ascension level, which is why I say to ascend characters and then level their talents :) After than then you level them up to the next level cap. You're basically getting to the level cap just before you can ascend so you can immediately ascend but level to the new cap later.
Anyone F2P following this guide.. DO NOT BUILD ONE CHARACTER. You simply can't survive encounters without multiple. Domains require multiple characters to complete and without domains you can't upgrade gear. It is incredibly foolish to spend all of your gearing on one character to steamroll, it just doesn't work. Even if you have 3 others who are remotely close (like within 10 levels) but don't have artifacts high enough, you are screwed in numerous encounters. I have tried to build one character but got stuck at numerous points, I even have some of the better 4 stars many would recommend but none of the ones I actually want (haha fuck gacha), so it's not like I don't have capable DPS that can roll. I have proper gear too, mind you as a F2P, stats are relatively high, and mobs go down fast. But without elemental reactions, things will take FOREVER. Luckily Lynette just released recently which mitigates the need for an Anemo to pull off some explosions to wipe groups a lot faster (I got Sucrose so it's been easier). This guide IS a year old and honestly most of it seems relevant, but this was a point that needed addressing. Be very careful trying to dump one character as a steamroll attempt, it won't end well.
So my side dps should be leveled up to a bit. ATM I’m using Lisa as a main and xingqui as my reaction starter.
Damn. I am level 16 on average at AR 25- No wonder i cant go through the dungeon to meet the adepti-
This video is just great. I wish someone does something like this in spanish, so I can show them to all my friends.
Does this guide and the Start strong guide in the description still apply ? I just downloaded the game and I'm wondering if this guide is still viable. thank you very much
Yes they are still very valid :)
Hi, I just started the game and I’m now AR8 I would like you to help me choose the main dps, sub dps and support, the characters I have are xiangling, yao yao, noelle and the main characters
Hmm I'd probably build Kaeya Xiangling Yaoyao and Dendro traveler. It's not a team with a lot of synergy but all the characters are good. When you get characters like Bennett, Xingqiu, Fischl, Beidou, Sucrose, or a 5 star or two you can switch the team up :)
I just (re-)started the game this weekend, after only playing a few hours during the original launch, so this video is coming out at the perfect time! Been unsure of the how I should be handling leveling (especially artifacts), so this video is going to be incredibly helpful. Can't wait till I jump back on and put it into practice.
Woo I'm glad I was able to get this out for you!
So how long does it take from start to end game?

I’m just grinding a bit to gather some resources before I ascend my AR.
This guide saved me from quitting the game out of frustration.
Thank you!
It's actually nice to hear that weapons aren't all that expensive to advance. I've been avoiding it waiting for weapons I like, and at AR28 that's starting to catch up to me.
Nice!
I started playing during Ayato's banner and basically did a speedrun to get to Inazuma ASAP in a week so I can both ascend him and join the Irodori festival. Got to AR 40 in 3 weeks and am now 46 after playing for about a month.
I regret prioritizing character levels instead of weapon/talents so I was very weak when I reached WL 4/5. Didn't know that domains were time-locked. My weapons were all level 20 and talents at 1. But once I learned about them and upgraded weapons and talents, WL6 was significantly easier than when I entered WL5.
I also regret not unlocking some bosses early (Raiden and Azhdaha) cause I didn't know they were locked behind story quests. Another thing I wish I knew early was getting my teapot to level 6 ASAP. It unlocks transient resin which gives 60 resin weekly.
I'm definitely at Phase 7 of this guide. I've slowed down significantly chasing AR and just focusing on support characters and getting talents to level 8. I don't even have the time to farm for artifacts yet. lol.
Thanks for giving me a goal!

Perfect timing!! I have watched several videos about builds because even though I am AR 35, I felt like my characters were not strong enough. I watched this video a couple days after you uploaded it and here I am, nine days later, and my gameplay is so much smoother! I had to grind a little bit with domains and bosses in order to pick which characters worked for me and then fixed and built my teams like you said. Holy smokes, everything is much better!

I suggest rushing to AR45 (although you might hit a road bump at Signora) to start grinding on Shimenawa/Emblem set, you can always do coop on this domain since a lot of players do

I finally beat abyss floor 12 on my 5th month of playing, but only 33 stars since I started lacking damage on my team 2 on chambers 2 and 3

What does that mean by your fragile resins remains unlocked? As in you’ve spent minimal fragile resin? Curious because my girl and I are always using it when we have it to grind out Cubes/Domains etc while only at around AR31…
@@nazkettu Yes I haven't used any of my consumable FRAGILE RESINS when I posted that comment.
As of now I spent around 20+ FRAGILE RESINS because I had to rush on grinding Alhaitham and Yaoyao. I still have 94 in my inventory
@@hornivore467 thank you for the reply lol
what character did you pulled for now ?
Its worth noting that leveling talents from 6 to 9 takes weeks, so dont expect a quick damage increase
You can speed it up by just making condensed resin the day before (I start the day before that day with leaving only 1 condensed resin so I get 5 total) and then have an additional 4 more condensed resin from today to spend on the day the talent book is on.
Total of 9 condensed resins to use in the domain roughly 2-3 times a week.
For artifacts, it may be better to give artifacts with EM, ER, or health for specific support characters. For example, some shields scale with health, so boosting the health would make a lot of sense. Likewise, EM for characters like Sucrose, or ER for battery characters. In fact, some energy hungry units like XL will benefit from some ER as well.
As for weapon, I think it would be good for beginners to become familiar with which weapons are good for who (XL is possibly the only broken one who can swing almost any polearm and get good results). Otherwise, giving the wrong weapons to the wrong characters will reduce the team's effectiveness. In fact, some of the 3* weapons are even pretty good too... ! There are public spreadsheets that document them, as well as character information at some well known Genshin sites.
THIS! Choosing the right equipments is as important as having them leveled up.
You cant build a single character. I have a freeze ayaka team and i have no way to get her artifacts or ascend her since in both cases i have to fight ice enemies (with ice shields) which she cant kill

Hmmm this makes so much sense and explains why I run into people with Lv 90 characters who can't get through Lv 90 domains (and get huffy about people bringing Lv 80 or lower characters) and I can get through the same content on my own with Lv 80 and 70 characters despite being an unskilled player (I'm not even lying, Super Mario is too hard for me). I started maxing out weapons and talents as soon as I could and then farming artifacts after that because you need like 20 boss drops for Lv 80 ascension, that's 300 resin you need to spend. I'd rather spend that resin else wear.
Nice! It looks you did the right thing :)

You are welcome! The good news is that you can still recover. It will take some time but if you follow the principles in the video you'll be on your way to becoming OP!
one early main DPS I saw left out was chongyun, that boy damages so hard, without him my early Raiden and emblem set farming would have been a real nightmare. he pairs so well with the healers and if you have sucrose and Xiangling it's so much nicer early game. but tbh nearly every team combo you can imagine works nicely. just make sure they synergize decently
probably just not futureproof, building a bennett as a main dps is good early on because the level and talents you upgrade will even be useful as a support later on
@@Strashky Bennet can main dps??
@@rapsody230 early on you can just make him ur main damage dealer by investing in his levels and talents. even if u switch him to support later all those resources wont br wasted
I personally would make one adjustment in the AR50+ section. With the supports, I would prioritize artifacts over talent levels 7 and 8. At least for utility supports. Getting usable support sets on them will in many cases bring more value than those two talent levels (Noblesse, Tenacity, etc). If one of those utility supports is anemo, I would suggest getting any 4pc VV set on them as early as AR40 (the stats can wait but the set bonus is just that broken).
One other tip I would reccommend is, any spare resin you have from AR30-40 ought to be used for extra talent books. There is less variation is talent domain rewards by AR than things like mora and Exp books and having extras will mean you can farm other things at higher AR (Mora, Exp books, artifacts).
Over all this is a great guide for new players and well organized.
Updating my comment now that I reached AR51: as a note if you plan to edit or re-release a guide like this, note 18:04 the idea adventure ranks slowing down at 45 may no longer be the case for players who love World Quests.
Between Inazuma, Chasm and Sumeru, there are now enough multi-stage world quests that if you for example spend a whole day entire working on quest chains as if this game was a regular JRPG, you can blaze through AR45-49 very quickly. I started Inazuma at AR44 and decided to do all the side quests I had access to, then I went to Sumeru to try Collei (without having finished the archon quest) and found a really fun world quest in there.
After the Sumeru and Inazuma side questing, I was all of a sudden AR49 thanks to multi-part quests that had hundreds of adventure EXP per part. AR49-50 was essentially the anime training arc for me, only doing dailies, domains, and world bosses to make sure I wouldn't be underpowered for AR50/World level 7.
Yeah now there's sooo many world quests I think I might have to remake the video just to tell ppl to slow down around AR30-35 before the enemy difficult makes a huge jump. I'm working on updating another video first, and then this will be on my list ^_^
I just recently come back to the game and though, I’m not very informative towards the artifacts… I usually just slot whatever and that’s what made me have a hard time progressing the game. I also regretfully LVL’d my World to LVL 3 without stocking up artifacts / weapons so that’s a plus…. 😭
I decided to fix my build and hope that I can manage to get there some day. So I have a few questions :
•is there a guide or video on where to farm 3 star artifacts before I can slowly climb my way towards the golden artifacts?
•Is there also a video on where to farm 3 star weapons?
That way, I can just use the duplicates to lvl up my main weapons.
I have been searching for this type of video for a long time but since I couldn’t find any I made a lot of mistakes after watching this I will continue building my character accordingly.
THANK YOU MATE. 👍
You're welcome! I'm so glad to help
While this guide is great a thing that most players should note I that at the very start of the game the weapons you get are 3 stars or some four stars that aren't viable on a lot of characters so instead of funneling resources into weapons that aren't very competitive you should focus on talent levels because as you progress and play events you might get great weapons for Characters that you might need to spend resources on to level up so I would suggest to focus on character levels and talent levels first as that is by far the best investment as no matter what its a permanent boost in power . Weapons in early game are shit that you will probably replace
But that weap you invest can be used as a mats to level up the later weapon right ? So is it still worth imvesting at 3 stars weap early?
Thank you, was looking for this comment. For instance I have Venti but his bow is less than ideal, also the guys says in his other video that I should ignore Ventis auto attacks...I mean how I ignore the auto attacks of the char I picked up for main dps? Why would I level his weapon? Makes no sense to me
I returned to genshin in 3.2 after not playing since 1.2
Thank you so much for the guide. Coming up on level 79 for my raiden shogun just working on the last talent and assentsion matts this week. Almost AR43. Thanks so much for this guide. Lifesaver
My pleasure! So glad to help 🙂
Thank you so much!
i thought weapons were the least important so i have them at around lvl 20
Thank you! I made it because I know there is a lot of confusion around this what is best to level up :)
i just rerolled a new account because ayaka is really op and i made really bad decisions on my first account, this was perfect to have clear goals and objetives, thanks for the video!
My pleasure! I'm glad to help :D
What should i do/not do to avoid having to reroll new account? (New player ar10)
focus on characters levels, weapons and talents, artifacts wont matter until you reach AT LEAST AR45 but you shouldn't really care nor farm them until AR50 when you get 5* artifacts guaranteed, then you should try and make an early well rounded team, so lets say 1 main dps 2 supports or 1 off field dps and 1 support and a healer, and you MUST fight the necessity of building more dps characters, at least thats what happenend to me, i always wanted to try new dps and at the end i found out i didn't have a TEAM to actually use them as they should or getting their full potential because every support i had was low level, low talents or with bad artifacts because i didn't care for them.
so, basically:
1: FOCUS on talents, weapons and character level in that order as those as secured upgrades for your characters
2: DON'T farm or don't ''care'' for artifacts until you can farm 5* artifacts a 100% of the time you do farm them
3: BUILD A TEAM not only dps, since elemental reactions and certain skills from some character cam make or break a dps or a team completely

@@darkcust4478 can you recommend a good dps character?( i got sucrose,xinqiu,chongyun from wishes)
best beginner guide imo i do so
much dmg now and other guides be mad confusing thx fr
Looking at this video, I just found out that I didn't really mess up that bad on my main account... thank you for the tips.
I'm glad to hear it! Any mistakes can be fixed but they do take time which is why I made this guide--so ppl would have a solid roadmap.
Hi! I stumbled upon this video not too long ago so I started a new account to test out your tips and tricks! I’m currently at AR 32 and I just wanna say this video is very very helpful and I no longer struggle during my lower AR, I can even do difficult quests like chi of yore and the dragonspine domain quest with much less struggles. Thank you so much for making this video I’d be recommending this to my friends who just started playing genshin! :D
You just deserved much more thab "just" over 300k subbers.
Thank you! I hope so :)
Worth noting some characters benefit much more from being leveled to 90 than others. Generally HP and DEF scalers, anyone who is primarily built to do transformative reaction damage (full EM build like some anemo characters), and an argument can be made for characters who are built with some EM and do some transformative reaction damage (e.g., pyro characters in overvape teams). But idk what the DPS increase looks like for the last group compared to other things
Good guide but the prioritze are not good cuz i cant lvl talent if u dont lvl your character so idk ich would say 1. weapon lvl 2. character lvl 3. talent lvl 4. artifact lvl
THANK YOU, YOU'RE REALLY HELPING NEW PLAYERS LIKE ME
I'm glad to hear it!
bro I'm at 40 and I just realised how baddd I've done lmaoo my weapons are level 50 and my main dps is lvl 69 talents lvl 3/4/3
Im currently in adventurer lv 19. I have Noelle (lv40), Fischl (lv39), Barbara (lv0) and the rest are around level 20.
I have been using Noelle is the lead character.
Now what do i do with my characters?
Should i wait to get Xiangling and use her as main/support?
Should i accumulate level up materials and save it for fischl and Noelle?
Or should i stop levelling up Noelle and instead focus on Barbara and Fischl or xiangling?
Also should i focus all artifacts on main lead character and support only? Or spread them all?
Any tips plizz. 🙏🤝
If you enjoy using Noelle I'd level her weapon and build her first, then Fischl as she is a sub dps, and do the same for Xinagling when you get her. For Barbara I'd give the thrilling tales of dragon slayers and just make her a healer by increasing her hp and ignoring any damage potential she has.
@@sharkh3art Tons of thanks to you 🤝👍
@@ramor4743 You're welcome :)
Noelle is very easy to get constellations for, being a 4 star, and you can save your currency to buy her const in paimon shop when she's around. At C6 she becomes an amazing choice for a dps, all the while being good at healing and shielding. The weapon you can forge, the Whiteblind, at refinement 5 is essentially her best-in-slot, so if you have any claymore billets they should go to her weapon.
Artifact sets for her are plentiful, and def rolls on them shouldn't be hard to get - it's worth it getting both ATK and DEF rolls on her substats, and DEF% on an off-piece
Me after watching this: Shit! I've been doing everything wrong.
Me after i created a new account to do it perfectly: *still continues doing it wrong anyways*
This video is incredibly comprehensive and valuable! I just have one question though: at what point would it be appropriate to build a second dps character (if you pull for one or just have another character you really like)?
Thank you! Once you have your main DPS basically built you can switch to another if you have them. Usually that will be somewhere around level 60 or so. Alternatively, you can switch immediately and if your current main dps can be a sub dps you can have them fulfill that role.
I'm at ar35 and I legit can't beat the ascension quest. I'm gonna try and use this guide to help my team.
EDIT: I BEAT IT😆😆😆😆 It took a day or so of building my dps the right way but i beat it😁 Really appreciate the people who make guides like this. Especially this one. Definitely subbing and will continue to look for your guides.
Great! I had the same issue when I started so that's what I made it for :)
not me coming back to my world rank 5 account 2 years later and wondering if it might be worth just straight up restarting 🙃
2:10 You can't raise talent level before character level because talent levels are locked behind the level of the character.
You can ascend them and then level talents before leveling the character further. Ascending and raising a character's level are two different things.
@@Nowaylarry you still need to level them up before ascending....
@@Diana-Cherry-Blossom It is explained in the video. The priority list is per world level. Since leveling the character is last on the list they will still be ready to be ascended when your world level increases.
@@Nowaylarry my point still stands true. I did not say anything incorrect idk why you feel the urge to argue with me on this
@@Diana-Cherry-Blossom Because your initial comment, without further context, appears to be arguing that leveling the character is higher priority.
It gave the impression that you hadn't watched the rest of the video or misunderstood the reasoning used.
I tried following this. Missed the laylines bit and was confused as to how tf do I level up my characters but this did help me feel more confidant in my play so that's nice
Really nice guide. Specially the significance of weapon leveling and artifacts leveling. Only issue I hv is that there won't be single main dps because as you progress through story and hit the elemental abyss enemies, you need counter elemental dps. So you need reliable 2-3 dps imo.
Thanks :)
So i played genshin, when it released, till i was ar40 something. Then I quit cause it was getting too hard, even on lower world level. I was not watching any guides and was just playing willy nilly. Came back about a month ago and really dug in and started watching guides to see what i could do. My main problem is artifacts i think. Currently at ar 53 and only have enough 5star artifacts for 5 characters and thats it. I think im also lacking a main DPS. I pulled Klee and Jean and those are the ones i focued on. I loved the way you put priorities on what to do first to last. I'm starting to not struggle now but the fight is still real
Nice! It does take time, especially after when enemies are tougher and you need more resources, but it's always possible :)
Fantastic guide! step by step, easy to follow. Probably the best one i've come across in the two years i'm playing this game.
Thank you! I'm glad it was helpful :)
I hate how playstation players have to make a whole new account if they want to restart its annoying. I had to make a new one since I messed up way to much
