Learning to soar through Teyvat’s skies is one of the most liberating experiences in Genshin Impact, even though true flight isn’t technically possible. Let me walk you through exactly how to maximize your aerial mobility in this breathtaking open world.
Basic Gliding Mechanics
First things first – you’ll need to complete the gliding license quest in Mondstadt to officially unlock gliding abilities. Once you have your wings, press and hold the jump button while in mid-air to deploy them. On mobile, this means tapping and holding the jump icon, while PC players use the spacebar, and console players use X/A.
Here’s what most players don’t realize: you can significantly extend your gliding distance by managing your height strategically. Try to start from the highest point possible and aim for a gradual descent rather than diving straight down.
Advanced Techniques for Extended Air Time
Remember those Anemo currents scattered throughout Teyvat? They’re not just pretty effects – they’re your best friends for sustained flight. When you spot those swirling wind currents, glide through them to get an immediate uplift that refreshes your stamina.
Stamina Management Tips
Your stamina bar is crucial for staying airborne. Each character starts with different base stamina, but you can increase it by:
– Collecting Anemoculus in Mondstadt
– Finding Geoculus in Liyue
– Offering them to their respective Statues of The Seven
Using Characters to Enhance Flight
Here’s an insider tip that changed my whole gliding game: certain characters have special abilities that complement aerial movement. Venti’s Elemental Skill creates an wind current anywhere you want, while Kazuha can give himself an extra mid-air jump.
Wind Catcher Gadget
Want to know a secret weapon for flight? The Wind Catcher gadget is a game-changer. You can craft it after reaching Reputation Level 3 in Mondstadt, and it essentially gives you portable wind currents. Just remember to collect Anemograna to keep it charged!
Common Mistakes to Avoid
I see many players making the same mistake – they spam the dash button while gliding. This actually decreases your overall flight distance since it consumes stamina quickly. Instead, save your stamina for emergencies or when you need that final push to reach your destination.
Remember, true mastery of flight in Genshin Impact comes from combining these techniques creatively. Start with the basics, then gradually incorporate the advanced methods as you become more comfortable. Before you know it, you’ll be soaring through Teyvat like a pro!
