as usual Genshin Impact Updated, version 2.3 introduces a number of new weapons to the game – with more coming soon.While new weapons can usually only be obtained through the Gacha Wish system, the Cinnabar Spindle Genshin Impact Can be obtained for free – a bit rare for a new weapon – without using the gacha mechanic. So, how does the new Cinnbar Spindle weapon work? Genshin Impact Compared to other swords already in the game?
weapons in Genshin Impact is a mixed bag, often mixing excellent (but hard to obtain) five-star weapons with mediocre (but easier to obtain) four-star weapons. Players can obtain the new four-star sword Cinnabar Ingot through the ongoing “Snow and Shadow” event in version 2.3. It might be attractive to players for a number of reasons – no gacha is required, it requires Alkahest to refine rather than repeat, and it’s an entirely new sword.
In order to get the cinnabar ingot sword Genshin Impact, players first need to make a fluffy snowman as part of the “Shadows in the Blizzard” activity. After obtaining the sword, players can obtain Alkahest through the event store for refining. As usual, the sword is much better when fully ascended, and the full cost of ascension is 150,000 Mora (and the necessary materials).
The best Genshin Impact characters of Cinnabar Spindle
As a 4-star weapon, Cinnabar Spindle Genshin Impact It’s not terrible per se, but it has a significant quirk that may make many players choose not to use it. Cinnabar Ingot’s Immaculate Heart increases elemental skill damage by 40% and defense, and can also be activated outside the battlefield. Paired with a sword wielder with a high DEF stat and good elemental skills, Cinnabar Spindle works great.Conveniently, this sword works best with the new albedo built in Genshin Impactand might even serve as an incentive to pull characters during banner replays.
Ultimately, a Cinnabar Spindle is only as good as the character using it. Unfortunately, other sword characters like Genn or Traveler are not suitable for Vermilion Spindles because they lack the DEF scaling of albedo. At this point, this means that the Cinnabar Spindle is really only useful to Albedo – and even then, some players with 5-star swords may choose not to use it.So while it’s a fun free bonus Genshin Impactcurrently only really useful if players want to pair it with Albedo.
