Genshin Impact Exercise Surging Storm Event Guide and Rewards
Dive into the strategic depth 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 lucrative Primogem rewards, making it a must-do. Here's a guide to participation and rewards.
Exercise Surging Storm: Entry Requirements
To join the fray:
- Reach Adventure Rank 20.
- Complete the Mondstadt Archon Quest Prologue.
Begin your strategic campaign at the Knights of Favonius Headquarters in Mondstadt.

Gameplay Mechanics: Mastering the Art of War
The event starts with helpful tutorials. Here's a simplified breakdown:
Before each wargame, select Combat Units (your troops) and Stratagems (buffs). Units have diverse types (AoE Damage, Flying, Ranged, Melee), each with strengths and weaknesses (e.g., Melee counters Ranged).

Study your opponent's lineup beforehand. The bottom-right diagram shows unit effectiveness. Changing your lineup costs Reinforcement Points – use them judiciously.
Key Unit Roles:
- Melee: High damage absorption, slow speed.
- Ranged: Long-range attacks, low health.
- AoE DMG: Damages groups of units.
- Flying: Evades ground attacks, immune to certain damage types.

Level up units by re-selecting them in subsequent rounds. Refresh Combat Units and Stratagems for better options. Remember, Elemental Reactions function as they do in the main game.
Winning isn't everything! Earn Wargame Medals regardless of victory or defeat. Winning yields more medals, but consistent participation guarantees rewards.
