There’s a lot a player can do in the open world of Genshin Impact. You have characters to level up, and enemies to battle, but most of all, you need to progress through the game.
However, this ‘progression’ works a bit differently than single-player games. You have no final boss to kill; there are no in-game checkpoints either. So, how does one track their progression in Genshin Impact?
The answer lies within a player’s progression rank. The higher it is, the better it is for you as a player. However, leveling it up can be a massive struggle.
Therefore, this guide will show you all the nitty-gritty of leveling up your Adventure Rank in Genshin Impact. So with that said, let’s get started!
What Is Adventure Rank In Genshin Impact?
Adventure Rank (AR) – in layman’s terms – is the progression metric of a player’s account. It is raised through Adventure EXP and can unlock specific options upon progression.
Players can not only ascend their worlds to the next World Level but can also experience better rewards and battles.
By default, your Adventure Rank can be leveled up to rank 60, with your world level reaching 8. Once you’ve reached this point, all the additional Adventurer exp will be converted to Mora. The ratio is 1:10 for this conversion.
Decreasing World Levels
Once you’ve reached World Level 5, it becomes possible to decrease the level by 1. This allows you to have an easier time battling enemies. However, your rewards will also decrease accordingly.
Upon changing your world level, you’d have to face a cooldown period of 24 hours before you’re able to reset it.
Benefits Of Leveling Adventure Rank
Aside from the mentioned perks, you’d also be able to claim rewards from the Adventure’s Guild whenever your rank increases.
Certain regions are also locked due to your Adventure Rank’s inadequacy. Therefore, you’d have to get the leveling going as soon as possible.
Most unlocks in the Genshin Impact world are bound on Adventure Rank. So if you do not have sufficient rank for a certain area, you would not be able to access its benefits.
With that being said, here’s what you will unlock in terms of Game Systems:
Adventure Rank |
Game Systems |
---|---|
8 | Blossom of Revelation Ley Line Outcrops |
12 | Blossom of Wealth Ley Line Outcrops
Daily Commissions |
14 | Expeditions |
16 | Co-Op Mode
Domains of Forgery (Weapon Ascension Materials) |
20 | Spiral Abyss
Battle Pass |
22 | Domains of Blessing (Artifacts) |
25 | Reputation |
26 | Story Keys |
27 | Domains of Mastery (Talent Level-Up Materials) |
28 | Serenitea Pot (Housing) |
45 | Mystic Offering (Artifact Strongbox) |
How Does Leveling Adventure Rank Work?
Your adventure rank can be increased by accumulating Adventure EXP. While a bunch of factors contributes to its increase, it fundamentally runs on the same principle as a regular in-game EXP bar.
You don’t have a limit on the amount of AR EXP that can be held. Therefore, you can potentially delay your ascension quests for as long as you want.
However, they’re better off done as soon as possible since you’re potentially halting your game progression otherwise. Once the quest is completed, the overflow EXP will be adjusted in levels.
How To Level Up Fast – Gaining Adventure EXP In Genshin Impact
Despite the game being programmed for all kinds of audiences, finding Adventure EXP without a single clue can be pretty tough.
Luckily, there are 6 quick ways to obtain more Adventure EXP to help yourself reach the Adventure Rank 60 as soon as possible.
With that said, here’s what you need to do:
1. Do Quests
Almost every in-game Quest gives out Adventure EXP. Therefore, there’s no reason to sleep on them.
However, in order to get the most out of these quests, you need to look for the following:
- Archon Quests: These Quests tell the main story of Paimon along with the adventurer when they traveled the world of Teyvat in order to search for the traveler’s long-lost sibling.
Each quest in this series is unlocked by having a certain Adventure Rank, so it isn’t your primary way of leveling up.
- Story Quests: These quests revolve around Characters and their interactions with the mysterious traveler. You’d be learning a lot while clearing these.
- World Quests: Just like Character Quests, the World Quest gives insight into the various locations present on the map. These can be pretty easy to grind – especially if you have a good team comp.
Aside from these, the four commission quests are available each day. Clearing them can net you around 175-250 AR EXP per quest.
Consequently, you can gain an additional 500 AR EXP from Katheryne after all the Commission quests of the day have been finished.
2. Open Chests
Chests are a great way to encounter random fortune. They come in 4 rarities and can guarantee a bunch of AR EXP – depending on the type of chest.
With that said, here’s what you’ll be getting from these:
Chest Type | AR EXP Given |
---|---|
Common | 10–20 |
Exquisite | 20–30 |
Precious | 30 |
Luxurious | 30–60 |
Making these your primary way of earning isn’t really the way to go since they’re pretty unreliable when it comes to consistent loot.
However, the ones at the Shrines of Depths might be a single exception to this clause.
3. Offering Oculi To Statue of The Seven
A Statue of The Seven can provide a maximum of 2,160 Adventure EXP. So if done right, it can net you a huge amount of Adventure EXP as quickly as possible.
Upon unlocking a statue, you are rewarded with 50 Adventure EXP. The statues in a region share the same level, so offering Oculi to one statue will have the same effect as offering it to others in the area.
With that said, here’s what you’ll be gaining in the different areas of the map according to the Statue Level:
