Five Hidden Genshin Impact Secrets That New Players Should Uncover
Chloris – The Secret Merchant
In Genshin Impact, players often need a multitude of materials, which are essential for character progression. Some of these materials are quite rare and become difficult to find at higher levels due to longer cooldown times (after initial retrieval). In such cases, players can find a secret merchant to buy some in-game materials.
Players can explore the main road above the Windrise area to find a merchant named Chloris. Once located, they can approach Chloris and interact with her to buy varying items. Chloris carries limited stock for each material, but they will refresh after a couple of days. Once the stock is refreshed, players can approach Chloris again to buy the items.
Special Dishes
Players can cook food for their characters, which will allow them to enhance HP and get other boosts in the game, based on the quality. A secret that many don’t know about is the Special Dishes, which can be cooked using specific characters in Genshin Impact. The base ingredients remain the same, but players can switch characters to change the results.
Certain characters have a higher chance to cook a Special Dish with the same basic ingredients. It will provide extra bonuses on consumption. For example Kaeya has a higher chance of cooking Fruity Skewers with Chicken-Mushroom Skewer’s ingredients, while Kujou Sara can cook Faith Eternal instead of an Egg Roll.
Secret Achievement For Gliding
Gliding is among the movement abilities in Genshin Impact, which allows players to travel across the map in lesser time and effort than running. Many players don’t realize that they can also unlock secret achievements for gliding over a long distance for more than 80 seconds. Thus, one can aim from one POI to another to unlock the secret achievement.
It is readily achievable, if players jump from Starsnatch Cliff towards the Nameless Island. After hitting the jump button from the cliff, players can hit the same key again mid-air to open their Wind Glider. Then players can aim towards the Nameless Island and continue to glide. The stamina consumed while gliding, can be replenished with food and talents.
Nameless Island
Now that players have uncovered the secret achievement for gliding, they can also explore the Nameless Island located in Starfell Valley of Mondstadt. If players don’t want to glide, they can use a Cryo character like Kaeya to freeze the water and walk towards the Nameless Island. Reaching the location will allow players to unlock a secret quest.
Fantastic Four Achievement
Another secret that players can uncover in Genshin Impact is the Fantastic Four Achievement. Players will have to use four characters with the same elemental type and complete a trial in any domain and difficulty. One must also ensure that none of the characters die, so that the achievement gets unlocked automatically.
Once players have uncovered all the secrets, they can also check out all hidden locations of Genshin Impact Mysterious Ore.
