Guide to unlocking 7 characters in Genshin Impact
List and Ways to Unlock 7 Characters in Genshin Impact
When starting the game, you'll be able to choose between one of the Traveller Twins. They'll always appear in cutscenes and special events, even outside of your party. Starting with Anemo harnessing the power of wind, but as the game progresses, you can switch to the Geo variant. However, they're not particularly strong but are considered 5 stars.
2. Amber - Pyro
Although she's considered the worst character on the list, you can unlock her quite easily. As the game begins, simply head towards the pinned targets on your map, and you'll encounter her. Her fire power is great for setting traps in the game as you can throw or shoot an arrow to ignite. Amber pairs well with the Anemo Traveller.
3. Kaeya - Cryo
The third free-roaming character appears after completing a quest to stop a mysterious storm. You receive the quest simply by following the natural progression of the game, so don't worry. After obtaining the glider, you're introduced to the Knights, and from there, you journey to some shrines. The second shrine unlocks Kaeya for you. As you might expect, he's not the greatest but will help you get off to a good start.
4. Lisa - Electro
Continuing the story, at the third shrine, you receive Lisa, an Electro mage. She may not stay strong later on, but she's a good mage to employ. Lisa's skills can transmit from one enemy to another, so with Amber and Kaeya, you can clear the path quickly.
5. Noelle - Geo
Noelle is one of the low-tier DPS mainly ranked due to her powerful attacks and extremely useful defensive capabilities. You can easily acquire her by using the Gacha system with 8 regular wishes. There's a newbie deal, a 10-wish pack.
6. Barbara - Hydro
Barbara is one of the best HP healers in Genshin Impact; you can get her for free if you create your account before November 11 when update 1.1 hasn't appeared. If you meet the criteria, you'll receive Barbara via mail upon reaching Adventure Rank 20.
7. Xiangling - Pyro
Furthermore, upon reaching Adventure Rank 20, you unlock the Spiral Abyss. From there, if you reach Floor 3, Chamber 3, you'll receive the character Xiangling for free in Genshin Impact. She's also one of the best DPS to have on your team, so quickly rise to Rank 20 so you can have her and Barbara join your adventure.
Here's how to unlock 7 Genshin Impact characters for free, with some requiring players to reach a certain level (maximum level 20). However, if you want to own high-level characters with stronger combat power, the only way to do so is by opening your wallet and testing your luck.
