Genshin Impact’s gacha system can be enticing, but you can build a formidable team without spending a single primogem. Here’s how to unlock 7 powerful characters for free.
How to Get 7 Free Characters in Genshin Impact
The Traveler
At the game’s start, you choose between two siblings, Aether or Lumine, who wield the power of Anemo. They’re considered 5-star characters and play a crucial role in the story, even when not in your active party. As you progress, you can unlock the Geo element for additional versatility.
Barbara
If you created your account before November 11, 2020, you’ll receive Barbara, a Hydro healer, for free upon reaching Adventure Rank 20. Her healing abilities are top-tier, making her an essential member of any team.
Xiangling
Reaching Adventure Rank 20 unlocks the Spiral Abyss, a challenging combat arena. Clear Floor 3, Chamber 3, and Xiangling, a powerful Pyro polearm user, will join your team. She’s a top DPS option and a valuable asset for any player.
Amber
While often considered the weakest character, Amber is readily available. Just follow the game’s objectives and you’ll encounter her early on. Her fire powers are great for setting traps and dealing damage, making her a good partner for the Anemo Traveler.
Kaeya
Follow the main quest and explore the world to unlock Kaeya, a Cryo swordsman. You’ll receive him after completing a quest to stop a mysterious storm. He’s not the strongest character, but he’s a decent DPS option for the early game.
Lisa
Continuing the story, you’ll receive Lisa, an Electro mage, in the third temple. While not top-tier, she’s a valuable asset with her ability to chain attacks on wet enemies. Combine her with Amber and Kaeya for quick camp clearing.
Noelle
Noel’le is a Geo claymore user obtained through the gacha system. However, new players can take advantage of a beginner discount on the 10-wish pull, which guarantees a 4-star character. Noelle’s high defense and healing abilities make her a valuable support character.
By following these steps, you can assemble a strong team of free characters without relying on the gacha system. These characters will help you progress through the game and conquer its challenges.
How to Unlock Co-op Mode in Genshin Impact
The first requirement for unlocking co-op is to reach Adventure Rank 16. This can be easily achieved by completing quests, exploring the world, and participating in events. Here are some tips for leveling up your Adventure Rank quickly:
- Focus on the main story quests.
- Complete daily commissions.
- Explore the world and open chests.
- Collect Oculi.
- Offer tributes at Statues of The Seven.
Once you have reached Adventure Rank 16, you will unlock the “Multiplayer” tab in the game menu. From here, you can add friends or join their games. You can search for friends by their User ID or browse through a list of suggested players.
Here are some things to keep in mind when playing co-op:
- Each player can only control one character at a time. However, you can switch between your characters freely.
- The host player has the most control over the game. They can open chests, collect Oculi, and interact with other elements.
- World drops are shared between all players. This means that everyone gets a chance to loot items from enemies and chests.
- Each player must pay their own Original Resin for the Energy Ley Line challenges.
- There are some restrictions on co-op play. For example, you cannot join a game if the host player’s world level is higher than yours.
With co-op unlocked, you can now explore Teyvat, tackle challenges, and complete quests alongside your friends. Remember these restrictions and considerations, and have fun conquering the Genshin Impact world with your comrades!
