Additionally, the Genshin Impact staff will use the in-game mail system to provide an additional three Intertwined Fates, bringing the total to thirteen.
In Almighty Arataki Extraordinary and Exhilarating Extreme Beetle Brawl event, we will engage in a simulated battle amongst bugs. Warrior’s Spirit brings back the combat tournament mode, where abilities are disabled and parrying is the only way to avoid damage.
