Genshin Impact Encounter Points Guide

Encounter Points in Genshin Impact offer an exciting alternative to claim your daily commission rewards.

A unique feature of Genshin Impact is its system of Adventure Encounters, which allows players to collect Encounter Points and claim various rewards, providing a fresh dynamic to daily gameplay.

Adventure Encounters in Genshin Impact

Adventure Encounters is a system within Genshin Impact that allows players to earn Encounter Points through various activities in the game. These points can then be exchanged for commission rewards, offering a flexible way to gain daily benefits without strictly completing standard commissions.

How to Unlock Adventure Encounters

To unlock Adventure Encounters in Genshin Impact, players must achieve one of two milestones:

• Reach Adventure Rank 35
• Complete Chapter II: Act III of the Archon Quest, “Omnipresence Over Mortals.”

This system becomes accessible via the Adventurer’s Handbook under the “Commissions” tab, providing a structured way to track and redeem Encounter Points.

How to Get Encounter Points

Encounter Points can be earned through a variety of in-game activities, each contributing differently to your total points:

1. Complete Archon Quests: Each completed Archon Quest generally grants a substantial amount of Encounter Points, often around 4 points per quest.
2. Complete Story Quests: Like Archon Quests, Story Quests also provide Encounter Points, typically up to 4 points, depending on the quest’s length and complexity.
3. Participate in Event Story Quests: Shorter or less complex Event Story Quests may offer fewer Encounter Points than the main story quests but usually give 4 points.
4. Open Luxurious Chests: Found in Shrines of Depths or other significant locations, these chests usually grant 1 Encounter Point.
5. Open Common Chests: Most chests that you find in the open world contribute 0.5 Encounter Points. However, chests in specific scenarios, like Domains or those featured as part of an event, may have different values.
6. Collect Special Items: Gathering unique environmental items such as Oculi, Crimson Agates, Lumenspar, Plumes of Purifying Light, and Spirit Carp can earn you 0.5 Encounter Points.
7. Participate in Events: Many in-game events offer Encounter Points as part of their rewards structure. The number of points can vary based on the event’s stages and the specific tasks.
8. Complete Invitation Quest or Hangout Events: These special character-focused quests often reward players with Encounter Points the first time they are completed.
9. Collect from Event-Specific Chests: Some events feature unique chests that can grant Encounter Points; the exact number may vary depending on the event’s design.
10. Claim Rewards from In-game Events: Activities that involve stage completions in events can provide between 2 to 3.5 Encounter Points, depending on the nature of the activity.

It’s important to note that Encounter Points are capped daily. Once you reach the limit of four Encounter Points or complete four Daily Commissions (or a mix of both), you cannot earn more until the reset.

Other Important Details

• Daily Reset: Encounter Points reset at the daily server reset time, so plan your activities to maximize your daily gains.
• Claiming Rewards: After earning four Encounter Points, visit any Adventurer’s Guild and speak to Katheryne to claim your commission rewards just like you would for Daily Commissions.

Adventure Encounters in Genshin Impact enriches the daily experience, providing diverse ways to earn rewards and engage with the game’s expansive world. By utilizing Encounter Points, players have more flexibility in engaging with Genshin Impact’s daily activities.
