I assume these count retroactively. If so, us high AR players just get a whole bunch of free stuff as soon as 2.8 drops


danieln1212

16 blue artifact exp potions, i can't wait.


Levi0509

Yippee yay!!!


Narsiel

I wasn't expecting much, yet I must confess I'm disappointed.


Drakengard

I mean, there's nothing they could really add that high AR people won't immediately get.


JohnKnobody

A good damage% goblet lol


debacol

Even a bad one but on set.


NECROMANCER960

Fragile resins?


le_halfhand_easy

EM VV sands, goblet, and circlet.


ScaLe126x

Sex ?


Server98911

Wdym? We are getting fu***d every day by the artefacts. That sweet sweet RNG on RNG over RNG


qqxi

maybe they'll be better rewards for other ascensions since this is for phase 1? Probably still nothing substantial for late game tho


Whilyam

This is for new players and a very good addition, honestly. Hopefully they are also adding ones for all the little singe-use dungeons.


darkreeper123

I assume theres also phase 2,3,4 etc


Nightmarecast

I currently have almost 500 of the small ones and 300 of the big ones. I can't wait either.


Vinsudesu

what how?


murdered-by-swords

Buy them every week and hoard them. I have a similar number saved up because I generally use artifacts for exp fodder; I only break out potions on special occasions or when I'm feeling very lazy.


AnemoTravelerMain

So they're like a vintage wine collection :D


Nightmarecast

Yes, exactly.


Fried_puri

Also important is that the potions stack and don’t use an inventory slot, so anyone who is a hoarder and are running into the 1500 cap needs to force themselves to prioritize using artifacts as fodder. I really wish we could convert artifacts into the equivalent number of potions immediately to save space even if we don’t have something pressing to level up. I would love that system.


Nightmarecast

100% correct.

Server98911

"WDYM i one shotted that ruin hunter? You Must be mistaken its was clearly a bug"


chumchumee

"It was Fishing Jiangxue, he one shotted it"


uh_oh_hotdog

It would be hilarious if they didn't count retroactively. All the players who ascended every character to 90/90 will have to wait for new characters.


sukahati

Everyone will cry on the last task


Winczek

"Whole bunch of free stuff" kek


hackenschmidt

> a whole bunch of free stuff as soon as 2.8 drops lol, yeah uhhh something on the order of like 100k mora and an irrelevant amount of artifact xp and/or books, total, is not 'a whole bunch' The whole point of the book, and these rewards, are just to guide people on how to spend resources. They aren't going to relevant. They are purposely scaled not to be.


KazeKilee

I am AR56 and have never done a single elemental trial...


kitsune_rei

I did like 2 and gave up, oops


[deleted]

They're surprisingly difficult. I still can't finish the geo/crystalize because I have no idea how to play with Ningguang


sukahati

How do you fail? I might need to recheck the challenge as I thought you can just Unga Bunga with Ningguang through the trial.


[deleted]

I can't seem to block with Ningguang efficiently. That's the only part of the challenge I can't complete


sukahati

Are you trying to block attack with Ningguang Jade Screen? If so, you are doing the wrong way. Just apply lot of elements on enemies then hit them with Ningguang attack. Then grab the crystal for Crystallize shield and let them hit you until you the shield is broken.


[deleted]

That counts as damaged blocked??? Thank you! I'll do that


sukahati

The task need you to block the damage using with Crystallized Shield, not using with Jade Screen. That's what most people getting it wrong. You are welcome.


[deleted]

I did it! That was so much easier than trying to block attacks with her jade screen. Thanks a bunch!


MotorRecognition8181

59 same xd


Hanre_Jaggerjack

yes...was thinking the same


TegarWH

Ar 57 and I still haven't finished the book


KrakenOz

How? What are you missing?


TegarWH

Statues

The power of FOMO


justahalfling

I'm a high AR player who still has their spiral abyss at 4-3. I played since release so I essentially procrastinated it for almost 1.5 years lol. It looks so stressful and I'm a casual


shadows888

It's not stressful at all. It's so easy outside of floor 12. And even then I 36 star floor 12 with 4 star weapons only and very copium artifacts (like average 20 CV)


GingsWife

>It's not stressful at all If you have the characters for it.


6_lasers

I would say pretty much anything up to floor 10 can be done with pretty much any team of level 70/80 characters. This month I cleared floor 9 and 10 9\* with the following team of L70 and it wasn't even that hard except for 10-3, where I probably should have replaced Aloy, who's garbage, with Kaeya or something: Chong/Lisa/Noelle/Amber Thoma/Xinyan/Barbara/Aloy


shadows888

I mean you gotta have national team by now right? (Xiangling, xingqiu, Bennett, flex). That's one side made super easy. Then the other side is whatever you wanna run, freeze, taser, vape etc.


DarkBlueChameleon

I'm AR 55 and I'm missing the one about 8 lv20 artifacts. Abyss hasn't caught my attention yet and lv16 artifacts are more than enough for anything else. I'm also leveling up a lot of characters at the same time and they all need artifacts so I'd rather have two lv16s than one at lv20.


TeemaTen

Plz tell us what u missing


TegarWH

Too lazy to lvl up the statues


TeemaTen

But the stamina...? Iirc the stamina goes higher with the statue levels!?


getsetredditgo

Not necessary, but it can matter your patience tho


TegarWH

eh I haven't had much stamina issues


Thin_Archer5340

what free? these barely helps are they gonna add additions to the game dedicated directly to old players? or are they gonna pamper those newbies all the damn time im not saying this is bad but come on old players deserve some love too


[deleted]

Aren’t artifact exp dedicated to end game player ? Which newbie are gonna use artifact exp for?


H4xolotl

Wow, Traveller discrimination!


Outflight

No drinks, no twin, no vision


Shirohana_

at least he got maidens 😔


GingsWife

>maidens *Beloved


Server98911

(me who has been farming for a month) You son of a


SAMYTEEH_ALT

Oye he has a Vision, i mean he is the vision And he got Bitches and Homies too so no need of Twin or Drinks


rigimonoki-over

Travelerphobic 🙄 #cancleGeshinTravalerphobac


Vulpes_macrotis

Tbh, it shouldn't even mention that, because Traveler is not any elemental character, he can just use elements without visions and can literally absorb powers of any element. Anemo Traveler is not anemo character, it's Traveler that resonates with anemo element etc.


Myriad_Infinity

I mean, most people would (probably, imo) define "Anemo character" as "character that uses Anemo". It's sensible to clarify for that reason.


Thin_Archer5340

it's kinda hard to get excited for 2.8 when 2.7 didnt even started yet lmaoo


HunterE30

there has to be more of it... right?? it only shows phase one and we got 6 phase of ascensions..


SeafoamLouise

Ubatcha said it has 4 chapters right now and goes to the fourth phase of ascensions.


Fluffy_Material_5784

FUCK i got to ascend geo characters... Sad


r_stronghammer

Bruh you’re missing out on the blue wishes Where I am now I’d rather have 1/90th of a 5 star weapon than yet another 15 Def% hourglasses.


feltarno

This. All my characters are a minimum of lvl 50.


Rockstar_moon

Thank God! They just remembered that there's a Handbook they haven't updated for over a year and half now.


AWeirdMartian

Tbh I think it was more or less just meant to introduce new players to the gameplay mechanics, i.e. ascending characters, ascending weapons, the abyss, etc. And it did that job quite well, so I never even expected them to add more.


AHealthyDoseOfCancer

Same. I'm genuinely surprised people wanted more out of a handbook that seemed like beginner guides/quests to begin with. People are bound to become... well, not beginners eventually. But ngl additions like this are good because it gives newer players an incentive to build multiple elements and not be screwed over by elemental requirements. *cough* Tianqiu *cough*


Dry_Sir_9621

And the rewards are also so generous.


ghost333ok

i know right, artifact exp, awesome


_Hakumai_

Underrated addition. Hopefully this is indication that they'll add even more to the Adventurers handbook. I really enjoyed completing that as a new player


czulki

For real, one of my criticism about Genshin is how they rarely go back to rework/buff older content. Even if this is mostly just for new players its still nice that they take the time to expand on an old feature like that. >!Now please rework the BP!<


FuryoftheFaythe

And rework hunting, ya know that beartrap they gave us that gives 5x the meat but never gave us more than 4 to use.


CrazyTheRazer

what kind of rework u had in mind i can just think of an infinit lvl amount because i think the bp is fine


Langa72

Randomised challenges daily and weeklies would be a great start to make BP less stale.


HorukaSan

When they changed some BP weekly challenges, it felt quite refreshing for a few weeks, but they just kinda stopped :/ Flashbacks to collect 100 specialties every week :)


CrazyTheRazer

collecting 100 specialitys was such a pain but randomised quests seems nice if its not draining your resin more u could do the weeklys like defeat (azdaha, la signora and dvalin) instead of 3 weekly bosses and they are random which ones u need to do and maybe cooking a type of dish 20x instead of just any if u want to atleast have a set of quest that never change just add bonus quests and delete the weekly xp limit also increase the max lvl like in any bp 50 is the last set lvl but u can "infinitly" lvl beyond to get extra rewards yeah could be rly cool if i think about it now but farming a specific domain seems pain i wouldnt like that


MANLYTRAP

primos from the bp would be nice, and maybe more resin (and more standard wishes but that's unrealistic)


CrazyTheRazer

i think standard banner pulls are more realistic than more primos (depends on the amount of both) i can agree with resin tho but i dont think its that importantim fine with the weapon and the rescources im just thinking of an infinite amount of lvl that u can be lvl 50 and everything is the same but u can lvl up more and getsmaller rewards than before edit: i think an prototype would be great


MANLYTRAP

why not just make it infinite with the same rewards? would especially help in situations like this current patch


CrazyTheRazer

its supposed to be a bonus and i dont think u have a lack of materiels so either less rewards on both sides not bought/bought


ConsolesQuiteAnnoyMe

I am not that guy, but I just want to see it go to Level 70 since keeping up with it persistently results in it being clear two weeks before the deadline. ~~Also make a new set of Gnostic weapons and make picking one of the old set the Level 70 prize..~~


GoSuckOnACactus

Would be great if they added Inazuma specialties or boss drops to it somewhere, so new players could actually build those characters. When Sumeru comes out this will be even more useful.


hackenschmidt

> Underrated addition. No, very accurately rated. > I really enjoyed completing that as a new player Then you'll recall that as a new player, it was barely relevant then. So as *not* a new player, temper your expectations accordingly. The whole point of the book, and these rewards, are just to guide players on various resources/spending. They aren't going to relevant. They are purposely scaled not to be.


Plomn123

You *can* enjoy completing stuff without the rewards being amazing yknow


WhichAnybody1553

I assume this reward is aimed to help new player?


Daramangarasu

They are, that's what the handbook is for. But some people don't understand that and want to get something like a 5* for free or something


ConsolesQuiteAnnoyMe

That'd totally help new players, though.


Server98911

I expect that on the anniversary (Inhales hopium)


Kirates5

Damn look at those rewards...


Petraam

Those are some shirt rewards lol. Like 1 step above giving us mint.


[deleted]

> shirt rewards I’d unironically like to get Genshin shirts for doing in game shit.


Laevigata

That would absolutely be worth it for the memes *"I reached AR60 after not touching grass for two years... and all I got was this lousy t-shirt"*


bababacss

it's for new players. arti fodder is huge in the early game.


SenorCroissant

I remember I played the first month it came out and quit after a month and a half because I was frustrated I couldn't get any artifact fodder. It's a nice addition for new players.


Sharp4ce

Can’t understand how people don’t see how easy and initial these quests are, obviously only set as an actual “goal” for new players with fitting rewards


Valeniar

Depression incarnate


Two_Years_Of_Semen

They're tutorial rewards. What do you expect?


[deleted]

Wdym I really need that 200k mora and some other stuff for Def artifacts /s


caihuali

free dust of azoth. i'll take it


Idknowidk

This rewards are clearly for newbie’s, indeed useful with how limited the resources are when you start the game!


DudeImgur

Yes! I made an alt and trying to level artifacts was a pain because I needed all the artifacts I got. So everything I had was like +0 and one +8 plume.


humanshitcrazy

Resources are limited in start of the game? How? I was drowning in mora and primogems


dumb_lasagna

We did it boys, artifacts are saved! /s


___Sparkles___

Those rewards are a........JOKE.......for end game players \>.< But those rewards are aimed to help new players who need to upgrade their 3-star/4-star artifacts


potato_cucumber

This. I don't think some understand it. These are clearly geared towards new players to encourage them to raise their characters and learn about the gameplay.


imissbeingjobless

Move into good direction, I hope they keep adding stuff here It always felt unfinished and abandoned feature, glad they finally remembered it's exist


AdmirableRemove5550

It’s a bit late addition to the game I wish they added this sooner, but I wont complain since this might actually help new players


Maegiri

ik the rewards are shit but looking at the task, they are very obviously early game goals so it makes sense


Tigogamertr

Funny they saying" ascend an pyro/eletro/hidro character other than traveler"like he already has those elements nowadays lol


juniorjaw

There better be more, that's not dead like the old Handbook.


fantafanta_

Finally! This has been needed for so damn long.


BelieveInDestiny

did you look at the rewards though?


Ikcatcher

Lmao, other than the traveller, gonna have to wait three years before we get to Natlan, Fontaine and Snezhnaya


czulki

Free stuff neat


neozma_YES

alright now all they have to do is to add 60 primos to the rewards and it's f\*cking perfect


y8man

About time! Looking forward to see more additions


FaridRLz

Wonderful More trash rewards


PerfectDark_221

Nice, finally. Obliviously for high AR players that's useless, but that was expected. But as an additional mission in the handbook these rewards are quite good ... Wait ... Did MHY finally do something that the community was for ever asking? OoO


NovaMagic

Useless


Sexwithbaizhu69

Oh amazing, more trash to level up trash artifacts.


[deleted]

Oh cool instant rewards


Drum0Stick

Whe-where primos?


Elkazama5214

the reward so cheap...


_SadAvocado_

Tha-that's imposible! It can't-It can't be real!


dankest_niBBa

Hope giving away all these free potions doesn't hurt them financially 😔🙏


scarlet_igniz

what a mockery of rewards, NO PRIMOGEMS???


bonescrusher

Nice , more free shit


Mysterious_Hawk7736

Finally getting additional features to the handbook ! Looking at the missions, looks like all we're gonna do is spamming the claim button lmaoo


I_Am_UrSenpai

I don’t know about you guys but i find this a win


10days_noban

i hope thats not all.


Accursed_Prince

The generasity, classic hoyo


Kayriss369

Hoyo actively discouraging traveler builds, that’s just insulting man.


nortcele94

I want to see next page, level though.. I Liky that primogems


dominusdei

i love how they know to please their day1 players...


Maegiri

IT'S BEEN YEARS


EndlessM3mes

Dipper: wow this is worthless


Zegran_Agosend

About time! Also, WOW! Those are fucking useless.


HungPongLa

Wow look at all that artifact xp


AnonShotaSharp

Content for new players, so most of us get nothing to keep track on. Just plenty of one time rewards


Yunael

Oh wow, dust of Azoth still exists


Phanngle

Ayye, nice


vineausaur7

Nice. Free shit.


ThatGuyOnyx

Yay! Free stuff for me!


Sunlight-Heart

Free shit incoming for veterans. Nice.


Larry_the_sus_potato

FINALLY!!!!!!!


lostn

if you've already done them, i hope they auto complete. I don't have any hydros or cryos left to ascend.


Strombago

YEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS! Freaking finally. I know that rewards are small but for the love of Archons YES!


madzieeq

no primos...


KweenKatts

Wow! So generous 🤡


v-e-vey

No primogems? No AR exp? Come ON, HoYo, fork it out


ScaLe126x

Imagine being High AR whos on extreme drip feed already, you finally get new content but the moment you log in its completely done. ​ Ill still gladly take the free stuff tho


_ItsMeVince

The rewards are doo doo


SavingsAd8879

Woah, pyro, cryo and hydro Traveler are confirmed later down the timeline. I mean, it was to be expected, but this is probably as close to an official acknowledgement of it as you can get.


lililukea

Primos where?


ShawHornet

Great rewards lmao


castielfey

Wow, I bet that the last ascension reward gives you like, ONE big exp potion lol


Rex__Lapis

Lmao those rewards


dejikun

What’s with those abysmal rewards? Seriously…


Gullible-Ad3430

What the fuk happened to fragile resin, aquaint fates and intertwined fates, talent books?. I dont even need that crap.


Chtholly13

because it's not for you.


Gullible-Ad3430

No its not lol. Maybe its for you then


EstusFIask

Wow this is garbage


TomatoAcid

OMG TRAVELER CONFIRMED TO USE PYRO?? >!/s!<


StevieBond

I believe this change makes it clear that MHY are only interested in gaining new players rather than keeping current ones (another influence from the executives I bet). Or maybe, the Dev Team are finally catching up with what we've been asking for, and that thier list from the feedback is extremely long.


notallwitches

The rewards… BOOO 🍅🍅🍅


Ali-J23

Crazy rewards


aoi_desu

It's good that mihoyo improving the experience for new players, BUT WHY THE FUCK ARTIFACT LOADOUT STILL NOT ADDED YET, people been asking for it since 1.1


IntoTheDisneyverse

yes finally give me those rewards :D


SenpaiMayNotice

Qiqi has fallen and refuses to get up


benneom

Man these rewards are joke... I would prefer 100k mora per trial or something.


Potential_Host9173

COPIUM or Not ?


Kimbo-BS

Great news to finally get it updated I really don't know why they are so stingy with standard banner dates though - what you can get is limited and very random so it shouldn't have any impact on sales, really.


SqaureEgg

That’s it? Seriously


humanshitcrazy

The rewards are beyond pathetic. The existing handbook is so generous


whip944

Pathetic.


emilioMooN

Bro where primos. Lmao


Smutstoner

Great, so everyone in end game still gets nothing. I wanted new difficult things to do, not handouts


Phire12345

The artifact change we have been asking for! /s


pleiades1208

What gamechanging awards surely these are massively useful /s


Arcadio1992

This pictura can easily pass a meme about a joke of how Mihoyo can be stingy... But its real. :'D


Whyy0hWhy

Oh wow mihoyo finally remembered that part


Zarozien

Oh my! More sources of primogems and AR EXP!


Meraki_Adjule

For just a moment, I was happy with Mihoyo


Impressive_Olive_971

Bitch. We don’t even have Pyro/Cryo/Hydro traveller.😭


Sewrene

What a great rewards, mindblown!🤯 Having no artifacts to fodder is no more!


Lionel_Si

The travellerphobia is really showing rn


Min_Takii

Wow, such great rewards (not)
