How To Do Charged Attack In Genshin Impact TCG
To do a Charged Attack inGenshin ImpactGenius Invokation TCG, players simply have toensure their current Dice count is an even number (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and so on)before launching the attack.
Any character can perform Charged Attack, but only a few of them has additional feature and benefit from this type of hit.
The cardHeavy Strikeis not only excellent toincrease Charged Attack by +2(one for Normal Attack, and another for Charged Attack) but also toensure the Dice count becomes even.
For instance, if players have eight Dice, and theyuse Klee’s Elemental Skill, the Dice count will now be an odd number (five Dice). This means Klee can’t use herExplosive Sparkthat activates upon using Charged Attack; her Normal Attack still needs 1 Pyro + 2 Unaligned Dice and will only deal 1 DMG.
If players use the Heavy Strike Event Card, the Dice count will now be an even number (four Dice). Now, Klee’s Normal Attack becomes a Charged Attack and no longer needs 1 Pyro Dice, so only 2 Unaligned Dice are required. She also gains +1 DMG from the Explosive Spark, bumping her attack to 2 DMG. Then, because of Heavy Strike, two additional DMG will be dealt, which means Klee’s Charged Attack now deals 4 DMG.

How To Do Plunging Attack In Genshin Impact TCG
PlungingAttack inGenshin ImpactGenius Invokation TCGoccurs when a newly switched-in character uses a Normal Attack. For example, if the active character is Venti and then players switch to Xiao, Xiao’s Normal Attack will be considered a Plunge Attack.
However, once players use Xiao’s Normal Attack,the next one will not be considered a Plunge Attack again. Another switch has to be made forXiao to do a second Plunging Attack. This makes the Plunge mechanic quite complex and requires a lot of switching.
Other than fast switch and switch cost-down cards, thePlunging StrikeEvent Card is one of the easiest ways to do a Plunge Attack. This card immediately switches into a new character and uses a Normal Attack, which will cause the hit to be considered a Plunging Attack.
Although it saves one Dice from a normal cost (1 Dice to switch + 3 Dice for a Normal Attack), this card demands three Dice of the same Element, which can be bad in certain situations.
Genshin Impactis now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
