In Genshin Impact, a new event is underway. We will tell you how the flying challenge works and why you should participate.
Currently, a new event is taking place in Genshin Impact, where you can snag plenty of rewards. The coveted Original Resin is also available, which you need for wishes to get new characters. Additionally, there are Mora and materials for upgrades. We will tell you how the flying challenge proceeds and what you need to keep in mind.
What do you have to do? Most players are likely familiar with similar missions from various challenges in the game world. You have to glide along a marked path while adhering to a time limit. However, it’s important to collect several golden coins along the way to achieve a better score. Your score ultimately determines your medal, and thus, which rewards you will receive.
But don’t worry, you can try as many times as you want to get the gold medal.
How to participate? Once you reach Adventure Rank 20, simply open the event menu. Select “Flying Challenge” and click on “Mission Details.” There you will see all the paths listed. Choose a path of your choice (currently, only the first one is available) and click on “To the Challenge.” Now the point on your map will be marked, which you just need to visit to start the challenge.
New abilities while flying: To keep gliding in the challenge from getting too boring, there are some special abilities to make things a bit more exciting:
- Updraft: Pressing a key allows you to create an updraft that catapults your character upward a few meters. This way, you can regain height and protect yourself from landing on the ground.
- Aerial Sprint: If you have collected enough elemental particles, you can activate a small sprint to shoot forward a few meters without losing altitude.
Does flying cost resin? No. The flying challenge does not require resin; you can participate as often as you like without having to spend additional resources. However, you must have reached Adventure Rank 20 to participate in the event. Most players should have already reached that.
How difficult is the event? The difficulty level on the first day is quite low. Most players are likely to receive the gold medal within the first or second run, thus snagging all rewards for that day. However, it is expected that the flying routes will become a bit more challenging in the coming days.
Is there more to come? Yes. Every day in the next six days, another flying course will be unlocked, offering its own rewards. Once all paths are accessible, they will remain available until Monday, December 14 at 04:00 AM. After that, the event and, consequently, the opportunity to obtain rewards will end. So, you should complete all flying routes by next weekend at the latest.
Have you already snagged all the rewards while gliding? Or are you struggling with the flying course on the first day?
Genshin Impact is currently gifting you a lot of Original Resin – you should log in again.
