A Genshin Impact leak has revealed several weapons that will allegedly be obtainable in version 5.1. Weapons in Genshin Impact are divided into five categories: Catalyst, Claymore, Bow, Polearm, and Sword, which offer diverse playstyles and stats. These items enhance the effectiveness of characters' skills, providing them with a passive that improves their combat prowess.
Weapons are vital for any Genshin Impact unit, as they provide massive stat bonuses and help them complete the endgame content. Like characters, weapons also have a rarity that tells players how hard it is to obtain them from banners. Luckily, there are a number of ways to unlock these items in Genshin Impact. Players can use their wishes on banners, complete specific events, open chests, or collect blueprints to add weapons to their loadouts.
