Genshin Impact Exercise Surging Storm Event Guide and Rewards

Dive into the strategic depth 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.

Exercise Surging Storm: Entry Requirements

To join the fray, ensure you meet these prerequisites:

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

Begin your strategic campaign by visiting the Knights of Favonius Headquarters in Mondstadt.

Mastering the Art of Wargame

The event starts with helpful tutorials. Don't be intimidated – it's easier than it seems! Here's the core gameplay:

Before each wargame, strategically select your Combat Units and Stratagems (buffs). Units are categorized (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, allowing for strategic counter-selection. Remember, changing your lineup consumes Reinforcement Points, so plan carefully.

Unit Types Explained:

• Melee Units: High damage absorption, but slow movement.
• Ranged Units: Attack from a distance but have low health.
• AoE DMG Units: Deal damage to groups of units.
• Flying Units: Evade ground attacks, immune to certain damage types.

Leveling up units enhances their effectiveness. Deploying the same unit in consecutive rounds increases its level. Refresh your Combat Units and Stratagems for optimal choices. Elemental Reactions function as they do in the overworld – leverage them for maximum impact.

Even losses yield Wargame Medals, accumulating towards rewards. Winning earns more medals, but consistent participation ensures you'll still claim rewards, albeit at a slower pace.

Reap the Rewards!

The rewards are plentiful! Earn Primogems, Hero's Wit, Character Talent Materials, and more. Here's the breakdown based on accumulated Wargame Medals:

Don't miss out! The Exercise Surging Storm event runs from December 18 to December 30 (3:59 server time) in Genshin Impact Version 5.2. Secure your rewards before the event concludes!
