The main event of version 4.5 Genshin Impact It’s called ‘Alchemical Techniques’ and it’s a potion shop simulator so complete and complex that it could be a game in itself, so we hope this little basic guide can help you get through it.
The main reward for this event is the new Four-Star Spear Discussion of the wise men of the desert. This is quite easy to get and you can purchase it even if you don’t fully understand what to do at the event. But if you want to make the most of it and get all the rewards it offers, better pay attention to this guide.
Starting the mission
We can start the event by visiting Lisa at the Knights of Favonius headquarters in Mondstadt. After the talk, she will guide us to the store location and present the tutorial.
In the event Alchemical Techniques of Genshin Impact We have to run a potion shop through “sales cycles.” Each cycle is defined by the creation of a type of potion that we can put on sale and earn money to buy supplies that allow us to be more effective in business in future cycles.
This is what we are going to do in each cycle of the event:
- Go to Freda’s store to buy supplies.
- Plant and collect plants.
- Review market trends.
- Create a potion.
- Put the potion on sale.
As the event progresses, we create potions, buy supplies and earn money, more plants, supply types, upgrades and options will be unlocked. It is also possible to receive visits from other characters who ask us for specific potions.
Now we are going to try to explain what you must do to complete this event.
How to make potions
When making potions we have a grid in which we have to arrange the plants necessary for each potion.
Next to each plant we can see an icon that represents its Effect. If we press R3 on this screen (or touch the ingredient or hover over it) we can also see what its Property.
The Effects are: Strength, Constitution, Dexterity, Charisma e Intellect.
There are also ingredients that come up that have all of the above items and are represented with an empty icon.
The Properties are: Calm, Fragrance, Warmth, Endurance, Relaxation, Healing, Skill, Perception, Concentration y Robustness.
What we have to do is arrange the greatest number of ingredients with the desired properties and Effects in the grid so that the mixing rate reaches at least 100% and preferably exceeds it. We will obtain better quality potions if we use the same ingredient with the desired effect and property, but it is not required.
Quality is determined by how much this graph increases in the direction of the desired effect or effects. Here we can also see the properties it obtains.
If we don’t have the ingredients for the type of potion we need, we have to plant the respective plants in the ingredient cultivation area. The ingredients take between 1 and 3 cycles to grow.
Fortunately from a certain point onwards we can spend money to obtain the ingredients immediately. This is useful when we need to create a potion in the last possible cycle and we don’t have what we need.
When it comes to packaging it, any bottle we have purchased and any decoration will improve the quality and price of the potion.
What potion to make for each market report
The first thing you should know is that, no matter what type of potion you make and put up for sale, you will always make some money. This should be more than enough to reach the end of the event and earn the most important rewards, including the new Four-Star Spear Discussion of the wise men of the desert. If what you want is to make the potion shop maximize profits, do what we tell you.
The goal should be to create potions that satisfy the needs of buyers according to the market report. The text usually has some highlighted words and it is on these that we have to base ourselves to discover what ingredients to use.
For example. The following reports have the words highlighted Combat y grow.
For combat We can use ingredients that have Strength, constitution and dexterity as properties. For grow
How can we know that? If you look carefully at the image, you will discover that there are question marks above each text. As the cycles progress and we make potions with the correct effects and properties, they will fill up. The idea is to make the correct potions from the first cycle in which they appear, but if we fail, we can consult them to at least take advantage of the final cycles.
In the following guide table we can see the valid effects and properties according to the keyword that appears in the market report and thus be able to create the correct potions in each cycle of the Alchemical Techniques of Event event. Genshin Impact.
