Here's a beginner's guide to help you get the best start in Genshin Impact. By following these steps, you'll set yourself up for success in Genshin Impact, enjoying both the gameplay mechanics and the beautiful world of Teyvat. Remember, the game is as much about the adventure as it is about the destination.
Understanding Adventure Rank (AR)

Adventure Rank is your account's progression level. Increasing AR unlocks new features, quests, and increases the world level, making enemies tougher but rewards better.
Do Not Rush: Early on, explore and complete quests at your pace. Rushing to increase AR can lead to under-leveled characters.
Character Leveling

•Character EXP: Earned from defeating enemies, but mainly from using EXP books (Hero's Wit).
•Prioritize: Focus on leveling your main DPS first, then your sub-DPS or support characters.
•Ascension: Characters need to be ascended at certain levels (20, 40, 50, etc.) to increase their max level cap. This requires specific materials.
Priority Tasks

•Main and Archon Quests: These advance the story and often unlock new areas or features.
•World Quests: Found all over Teyvat, often provide good rewards and lore.
•Exploring: Open chests, solve puzzles, and collect Oculi. These activities provide resources and increase your Adventure Rank.
Daily Commissions

•Complete Daily: Four commissions become available each day. Completing them gives you Primogems, Adventure EXP, and Mora.

Managing Original Resin

•Resin: This resource regenerates over time (1 resin every 8 minutes) and is used for claiming rewards from Ley Line Outcrops, Domains, and Boss fights.
Prioritize:
•Ley Line Outcrops: For Mora or Character EXP books when you're low.
•Domains: For artifacts, talent level-up materials, or weapon ascension materials.
•Weekly Bosses: Use resin for these since they can only be fought a limited number of times per week for rewards.
•Condensed Resin: Craft this using Crystal Cores to store resin for later use, doubling the reward from a single run.
Character Building

•Weapons: Equip characters with the best weapons available. Enhance them but save your best for your main characters.
•Artifacts: Start by focusing on getting the correct main stat for each piece. Sub-stats become more crucial later on.
Elemental Synergy and Team Building

•Elemental Reactions: Learn how elements interact. Build teams that can trigger reactions like Melt, Vaporize, or Overload for increased damage.
•Team Roles: Have at least one main DPS, one or two sub-DPS or support for healing, elemental reactions, or shields.
Wishing and Primogems

•Save Primogems: For characters or weapons you really want. The game uses a pity system, so saving for a guaranteed pull can be wise.
•Beginner's Wish: Use your initial Acquaint Fates here for a no-risk chance at Noelle and other characters.
Co-op Mode

•Join or Host: Especially useful for bosses or domains you find tough. However, most content is manageable solo with proper character development.
Events

•Participate in Events: They often give great rewards, including Primogems, characters, and useful items. They're also a good way to earn resources outside of the regular grind.
Understanding Wishes

•Pity System: After 89 wishes without a 5-star, the 90th wish guarantees one. For 4-stars, it's usually every 10 wishes.
•Rates: Understand that the rates for 5-stars are low, so manage your expectations and your gems.
Final Tips 
•Enjoy the Game: Genshin Impact has a rich world with lots to explore. Don't just focus on progression; enjoy the journey, story, and music.
•Learn from Mistakes: Don't worry if you've made less optimal choices early on. Resources in Genshin are renewable, and you'll get chances to correct course.
