Forging Materials
It is important to not only equip your characters with good weapons – but to ensure you have the right Weapon Enhancement materials to level them up. Forging in Genshin Impact allows players to craft specific items they need to fortify their weapon of choice. You can forge your weapons or weapon enhancement materials in various towns across Teyvat – you can locate them by following the forging symbol on your mini map.
Genshin Impact also allows characters to forge multiple items at the same time using Forge Queues – this saves the player time as crafting can take anywhere from 5 to 3 minutes to forge one item.
