Summary
Genshin Impactis currently home to 1,365 achievements, a number that is only set to increase with future updates. Players can showcase their expertise and experience in the game by completing these achievements,with a lot of them often being hidden.
However, there are certain achievements that are hard to do, or extremely time-consuming, so investing resources in getting the achievement becomes a challenge in itself. TheGenshin Impactachievements that have made it onto this list are truly some of the hardest and take unwavering dedication and focus to complete.
10Hyperblooming Circus
Kill Enemies With Hyperbloom
WhileHyperbloom team comps are very popular inGenshin Impact,getting four kills with this reaction in a short span of time is much trickier than it might seem. Players will have to carefully assemble a team that can proc Hyperbloom in a rotation where it is able to land the finishing blow.
This is easier said than done against high-level enemies. Doing this a total of 16 times to complete all three tiers of the achievement is definitely tedious. The best way to achieve this feat is to form a team consisting of Electro Traveler,Barbara, andColleiand fight low-level enemies to make sure Hyperbloom can reliably kill them.
9Well, That Was Strange
Defeat Unusual Hilichurls
The Unusual Hilichurl has been a part ofGenshin Impactsince Version 1.1. As its name suggests, it is a strange-looking Hilichurl that takes on a very different look compared to its kin. It also has a variety of moves that are not usually part of a Hilichurl’s arsenal. These include smacking a player with its briefcase and throwing cabbages.
Defeating the Unusual Hilichurl is not the hardest part. It is to find it 75 times to complete the three tiers of the achievement. It spawns every 12 hours in real-time and can be defeated twice before going on cooldown. Finding these locations without a guide can be done only through exploration. Even with some tips, it is quite tedious and definitely one of the harder achievements to obtain in the game.
8Dear Daddy
Hear Timmie’s Story
Dear Daddy is an achievement that can only be completed after getting a specific version of the Mondstadt commission named “Pigeons Go AWOL”. Acquiring this particular version of the commission, involving the Hilichurls, will take a good amount of RNG, which naturally makes this achievement hard to obtain.
It is further made hard as the letter that is needed to activate the next quest, “A Boy’s Letter”, is based on luck and will not spawn even if you get the Hilichurl version of Pigeons Go AWOL. This is an achievement that players can achieve relatively quickly or take ages to complete.
7Perfectionist
Help Tsarevich Out
Tsarevich is a top contender for the most hated NPC inGenshin Impactpurelybecause of his commission “Reliable Helper”. This commission can be obtained by setting the region to Mondstadt. The catch with this achievement is that players will have to do the three variants of this commission flawlessly, which is quite hard.
These are the three variants of the commission and the requirements to complete it flawlessly:
Messing up any of these will result in a flawed completion, after which players will have to wait for the commission to return, which is dependent on an internal cycle. This is a troublesome achievement that can take a really long time if things don’t go right.
6Divine Roots
Explore Every Corner of Inazuma
Getting to Level 50 of the Sacred Sakura’s Favor takes an immense amount of exploration and grinding. Players will need a grand total of 1,250Electro Sigilsto obtain this achievement. Needless to say, players will have to explore almost every island in Inazuma to its fullest.
Inazuma features some of the toughest exploration for newer players that do not have well-equipped teams. It is also home to some frustrating and mind-numbing puzzles that can test anyone’s patience. This is easily one of the most time-consuming and tedious achievements to complete inGenshin Impact.
5Culmination Of The Great Dream
Traverse The Rainforest And The Desert
If leveling up the Sacred Sakura Favor was not hard enough already, making theTree of Dreams in Vanaranareach Level 50 is even harder thanks to Sumeru’s vast landscape. While the puzzles in this region are not as hard as the ones in Inazuma, it is quite cumbersome to explore so much land across the rainforest and the desert.
Add the plethora of underground sections into the mix and players can find themselves completely overwhelmed. This is an achievement that is best done in a step-by-step process, as it can take a good chunk of time to complete a lot of the important world quests and unlock devices needed to reach particular sub-areas in the region.
4Bounty Of The Earth
Complete Ley Line Outcrops
Completing Ley Line Outcrops is a great way to spend Resin inGenshin Impact, when there is nothing else to do. Getting free gold or experience books is the premier way to pre-farm for future character banners or ascend existing characters. However, this achievement requires players to complete 1400 Ley Line Outcrops, which is absurd.
Players will not usually be spending all their Resin on Ley Lines every day, which makes this achievement incredibly time-consuming. Additionally, spendingCondensed Resinto get double rewards only counts as one Ley Line Outcrop completed. All of these factors make Bounty of the Earth an achievement that will take a couple of months to a few years depending on the player’s choices.
3Tales Of Monstrous Madness
Finish The Toki Alley Tales
Tales of Monstrous Madness continues a series of achievements that takes an ungodly amount of time to complete. Finding the first 50 enigmatic pages of Inazuma requires exploring the islands of the nation. The hard part comes into play while trying to collect the final 10 enigmatic pages required to obtain the achievement.
These 10 pages are purely dependent on RNG, as players can only get them by fishing in Inazuma. There is no guarantee involved in this process, and it can take incredibly long to obtain the final 10 pages. This is one of the few achievements that is quite frustrating and is often not worth the hassle unlessplayers are heavily invested inGenshin Impact’slore.
2Ding Ding Ding!
Become A Fishing Expert
Fishing is one of the least used features inGenshin Impact.Other than obtaining some strong craftable weapons likeThe Catch, or simply relaxing for a while, there is very little use for this gameplay mechanic.
This is why catching 2600 fish is borderline impossible for many players, as they simply won’t have the patience or time to commit so many resources to an inconsequential mechanic that barely gives out worthwhile rewards. This achievement is comfortably one of the hardest and most drawn out in the game.
1Stop! Gather Time
A True Gardener
Much like the “Ding Ding Ding!” achievement, Stop! Gather Time suffers from the same problem of being too long to invest time in a measly 35 Primogems. The fact that this achievement takes up to a minimum of 7000 hours is mind-boggling.
This is easily the hardest achievement to obtain inGenshin Impact.The lack of rewards, except for local specialties, makes this journey almost pointless except for dedicated players looking to get every single achievement in the game.
