TLDR;
This video provides a comprehensive guide on how to efficiently pre-farm for characters in Genshin Impact, focusing on saving time and resources. It categorizes characters by priority (high, medium, low) and offers specific strategies for each, covering boss materials, weapons, artifacts, and talents. The guide emphasizes resourcefulness, strategic planning, and avoiding resin waste.
- Prioritize character farming based on certainty of obtaining them.
- Avoid pre-farming artifacts until the character is obtained and the optimal set is known.
- Utilize strongboxes and natural exploration for resources before resorting to resin-intensive domains.
Prioritizing [0:30]
The initial step in pre-farming involves categorizing characters into three priority levels: high, medium, and low. High-priority characters are those you are determined to obtain, saving primogems and resources for them. Medium-priority characters are important but not critical, such as support characters. Low-priority characters are those you don't need to build immediately and can wait on.
★★★ High [1:52]
For high-priority characters, such as Skirk, it's important to strategically pre-farm. Delay farming boss materials until you own the character, especially if a story quest provides some for free. Weapons can be pre-farmed since they are transferable, but avoid spending resin on artifacts until you have the character. Use the strongbox for artifact sets if available and only farm domains when you are certain of the best set. Save fragile resin for artifact farming due to its RNG nature. For talents, farm talent domains on available days without using fragile resin, and condense resin to speed up the process.
★★ Medium [6:40]
For medium-priority characters, only farm boss materials after obtaining the character. If their best weapon is a general or event weapon, you can raise it, but hold off on character-specific weapons. Avoid artifact domains and utilize the strongbox instead, using spare artifacts from farming for higher-priority characters. Don't spend fragile resin on artifacts until the character becomes a top priority. For talents, explore the character's nation for talent materials in chests before resorting to domains. Farm talent boss materials early to have them available.
★ Low [10:30]
For low-priority characters, wait until you own the character before farming boss materials. Raise only necessary weapons, and if unsure, wait for confirmed builds or new weapon releases. Utilize existing artifacts in your inventory or use bad artifacts in the strongbox, avoiding artifact domains. Prioritize weapon, level, and talents before artifacts. Collect talent books naturally through events, parametric transformers, and map exploration, avoiding resin use. Farm talent boss materials weekly if they align with your other priorities.
Bonus Tips! [12:40]
Farm enemy drops and local specialties frequently, regardless of character priority, as they are universally useful and time-gated. If not actively farming for a character, spend resin on Mora or EXP, but prioritize obtaining these through exploration and quests. Submit sigils for Mora and other rewards before resorting to Ley Line Outcrops.
