Dive into the strategic depths 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 boasts rewarding Primogem prizes. Let's explore how to participate and the treasures awaiting you.

Exercise Surging Storm: Entry Requirements

To join the fray:

• Achieve at least Adventure Rank 20.
• Complete the Mondstadt Archon Quest Prologue.

Begin your strategic campaign by visiting the Knights of Favonius Headquarters in Mondstadt, the game's initial region.

Mastering the Art of War: Gameplay Mechanics

The event starts with helpful tutorials. Don't be intimidated; it's easier than it seems! Here's a concise overview:

Before each wargame, select Combat Units (your troops) and Stratagems (power-ups). Units are categorized (AoE Damage, Flying, Ranged, Melee), each with strengths and weaknesses (e.g., Melee excels against Ranged).

Analyze your opponent's lineup beforehand. The bottom-right diagram shows unit effectiveness, allowing strategic adjustments. Remember, changing your lineup consumes Reinforcement Points – use them judiciously!

Understanding unit roles is crucial:

• Melee Units: High damage absorption, but slow.
• Ranged Units: Long-range attacks, but low health.
• AoE DMG Units: Damage multiple units simultaneously.
• Flying Units: Evade ground attacks, immune to certain damage types.

Upgrade units to enhance their effectiveness. Re-selecting a unit for the next round levels it up. Refresh Combat Units and Stratagems for better options. Elemental Reactions function as they do in the overworld; leverage them strategically.

Even losses yield Wargame Medals, accumulating towards rewards. Victories grant more medals, but consistent participation ensures reward acquisition, albeit at a slower rate.

Reap the Rewards: Event Prizes

Your efforts are handsomely rewarded with Primogems, Hero's Wit, Character Talent Materials, and more. Here's a comprehensive reward breakdown based on accumulated Wargame Medals:
