Genshin Impact: Conquer Storm Surge Event for Glorious Rewards

Author : Lucas Feb 21,2025

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 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; the mechanics are simpler than they first appear. Here's a concise overview:

Before each wargame, select your Combat Units (troops) and Stratagems (buffs). Units are categorized (AoE Damage, Flying, Ranged, Melee) with specific strengths and weaknesses (e.g., Melee counters Ranged).

Study your opponent's lineup beforehand. The bottom-right diagram shows unit effectiveness, allowing strategic adjustments. Remember, changing your lineup consumes Reinforcement Points, so choose wisely.

Understanding unit roles is crucial:

  • Melee: High damage absorption, slow movement.
  • Ranged: Long-range attacks, low health.
  • AoE DMG: Damages groups of units.
  • Flying: Evades ground attacks, immune to certain damage types.

Leveling up units enhances their effectiveness. Repeat unit selection in subsequent rounds to level them up. Refresh available units and stratagems for optimal choices. Elemental Reactions function as in the overworld, so leverage elemental advantages.

Even losses earn Wargame Medals, accumulating towards rewards. Victories yield more medals, but consistent participation guarantees rewards, albeit at a slower pace.

Reap the Rewards

The rewards are plentiful, including Primogems, Hero's Wit, Character Talent Materials, and Mora. Here's a breakdown based on accumulated Wargame Medals:
