This is a guide to Character Ascension, or going past the max level, in Genshin Impact. Learn how to level up your character, and the bonuses obtained from Ascending.
What is Character Ascension?
Ascension is a feature which allows a Character to go past their initial level cap, as well as providing additional bonuses in itself.
- Raises a character’s max level
- Raises a character’s base stats
- Raises a character’s Ascension Bonus Stat
- Unlocks new Talents
Cannot Unlock Constellations
When you obtain the same character multiple times from Wish rolls, you will obtain materials needed to unlock a Character’s Constellations. These items are unrelated to Ascension, so you will not be able to unlock Constellations through Character Ascension. You’ll need to roll a lot of Wishes if you want to open up all of these!
How to Ascend
Ascending a Character requires unique Materials obtained in Abyssal Domains and from enemy and boss item drops It’s also required to raise your Adventure Rank first before Ascending to the next level.
How to Get Ascension Materials
Since Adventure Rank will go up as you complete Quests and continue playing the game, collecting Materials is the only real hurdle for Ascension.
Methods for Collecting Ascension Materials
- Searching the Map
- Abyssal Domains
- Purchase them in Shops
- Defeat Bosses
- Dropped by Enemies
- Adventure Rank Rewards (Main Character)
