In Genshin 5.6 Phase 2, Kinich will once again appear on the banner. In 5.6 Phase 2, Fangs of the Mountain King will also return, which is one of the best weapons for Kinich. Whether you are short of Kinich or Fangs of the Mountain King, you can build the best Kinich in Genshin 5.6 Phase 2.

How To Get Kinich?

On May 27, the second phase of Genshin Version 5.6 was launched, and the banner for Kinich was also opened until June 17. All the banners that are open are as follows:

Kinich Banner:

• Kinich: 5 stars
• Sara: 4 stars
• Thoma: 4 stars
• Lynette: 4 stars

Raiden Banner

• Raiden: 5 stars
• Sara: 4 stars
• Thoma: 4 stars
• Lynette: 4 stars

Epitome Invocation

• Engulfing Lightning: 5 stars
• Fang of the Mountain King: 5 stars
• Lion: 4 stars
• Favonius Greatsword: 4 stars
• Dragon: 4 stars
• Eye of Perception: 4 stars
• The Stringless: 4 stars

Kinich is a top-level DPS character of Dendro element and is very good at exploration. His grappling hook can also traverse terrain by aiming in the air, allowing Kinich to bypass hard and dangerous areas by hoisting himself into the air.

If you are missing such a character, then don’t hesitate to use your Primogems to get him and his weapons in the next upcoming banner.

Kinich Best Constellations

For most players, the understanding of Constellations is either Constellations 0 or Constellations 6. But Kinich is best with Constellations 2. If you have enough Genshin Impact Genesis Crystals for 5.6 Phase 2, then getting three is enough to make a qualitative change in his damage, because his Scalespiker Cannon is already in the best state.

Kinich Builds

Depending on the role Kinich plays in the team, there are multiple ways to build him.

Kinich Burning/Burst DPS Build

• Best Weapon: Fang of the Mountain King
• Alternative Weapons: Beacon of the Reed Sea/Serpent Spine/Earth Shaker
• Best Artifacts: Obsidian Codex x4/Unfinished Reverie x4
• Artifact Stats: Sands, ATK%/Goblet, Dendro damage Bonus/Circlet, Crit Rate or Crit damage

If you use Kinich as your primary DPS, you will have two options. One is to use Burgeon as the main DPS. Kinich is best paired with Obsidian Codex because every time he uses Nightsoul Points in his elemental skills, he can greatly increase his crit rate. This also makes it easier for him to build a crit flow, allowing him to easily get +40% crit rate.

Another option is to use 4 pieces of Unfinished Reverie, which increases the damage taken by opponents in the burning state by 50%, and Kinich is usually played in a team using burning, so this is a good choice.

Therefore, there are two ways to match teams:

Sample Teams:

• Burning: Kinich, Emilie, Xiangling, Bennett.
• Burgeon: Kinich, Nahida, Thoma, Xingqiu

Kinich Standard DPS Build

• Best Weapon: Beacon of the Reed Sea
• Alternative Weapons: Fang of the Mountain King/Serpent Spine/Mailed Flower/Earth Shaker
• Best Artifacts: Obsidian Codex x4/Gilded Dreams x4

Kinich can also be run as a standard Dendro DPS, and you can choose a 4-piece set of Gilded Dreams or other element-centric artifact sets and run him in a standard Dendro DPS combination.

Kinich is responsible for attaching Dendro elements to enemies, and then using Electro units that cause spread damage to generate bloom cores to trigger. He can also supplement a large amount of damage.

Best Artifacts for Kinich

Tier 1 Obsidian Codex:

• 2 Obsidian Codex: When the character is on the field in Nightsoul blessing state, the damage caused is increased by 15%.
• 4 Obsidian Codex: Once per second, after consuming 1 Nightsoul point when the character is on the field, the critical strike rate is increased by 40% for 6 seconds.

Tier 2 Unfinished Reverie:

• 2 Unfinished Reverie: Attack +18%
• 4 Unfinished Reverie: 3 seconds after leaving combat, damage dealt increased by 50%, and this effect can still be triggered when there is a burning enemy on the field.

Tier 3

• 2 Golden Troupe: Elemental skill damage increased by 20%
• 2 Deepwood Memories: Dendro damage increased by 15%

Since each character can carry 6 Artifacts, you can use the above Artifacts in combination.

Kinich Weapon Ranking

Don’t worry if you don’t have enough Genesis Crystal, so you don’t get the best weapon to match Kinich, and there are still many good free weapons to use.

• Fang of the Mountain King (5 stars): Gacha
• Beacon of the Reed Sea (5 stars): Gacha
• Verdict (5 stars): Gacha
• Skyward Pride (5 stars): Gacha
• Serpent Spine (4 stars): Battle Pass
• Earth Shaker (4 stars): Crafted

• Ultimate Overlord’s Mega Magic Sword (4 stars): Event

Have you acquired Kinich? Do you plan to replenish his Constellations or get the best weapon for him? Version 5.6 Phase 2 is your best chance.

As the main new character of Genshin Impact version 5.6, getting Escoffier should be one of the biggest motivations for you to work hard in this version! After all, the new characters of Genshin Impact are not only attractive in appearance, but also help you complete the tasks in the corresponding new version.

At present, version 5.6 has been going on for more than a week. You should have collected some free Primogems to get Escoffier. If not, it is best to hurry up and get Genesis Crystals through Genshin Impact Top Up to exchange Primogems, because the banner where Escoffier is located is time-limited!

If you already have Escoffier, then in order to make the most of her in battle, you need to collect relevant materials as soon as possible to complete her upgrade and Ascension, while upgrading her talents.

Based on this, we will introduce you to what materials are needed to upgrade and Ascend Escoffier, and how to farm them.

All Escoffier Ascension Materials

As you know, the lovely Escoffier is mainly responsible for Cryo sub-DPS in the team, so you need to focus on farming Shivada Jade, the lowest risk basic material, which can be dropped by defeating Cryo bosses such as Cryo Hypostasis, Maguu Kenki, Lupus Boreas, and La Signora.

It is worth noting that Shivada Jade has different levels, and the rarer Shivada Jade can help Escoffier reach higher levels. So if you get too many low-level Shivada Jade, you can convert them into rarer ones through Alchemy Table.

Level 20 Ascension:

• 1x Shivada Jade Sliver
• 3x Meshing Gear
• 3x Beryl Conch
• 20,000x Mora
• Rewards: 1x Acquaint Fate

Level 40 Ascension:

• 3x Shivada Jade Fragment
• 15x Meshing Gear
• 10x Beryl Conch
• 2x Secret Source Airflow Accumulator
• 40,000x Mora

Level 50 Ascension:

• 6x Shivada Jade Fragment
• 12x Mechanical Spur Gear
• 20x Beryl Conch
• 4x Secret Source Airflow Accumulator
• 60,000x Mora
• Rewards: 1x Acquaint Fate

Level 60 Ascension:

• 3x Shivada Jade Chunk
• 18x Mechanical Spur Gear
• 30x Beryl Conch
• 8x Secret Source Airflow Accumulator
• 80,000x Mora

Level 70 Ascension:

• 6x Shivada Jade Chunk
• 12x Artificed Dynamic Gear
• 45x Beryl Conch
• 12x Secret Source Airflow Accumulator
• 100,000x Mora
• Rewards: 1x Acquaint Fate

Level 80 Ascension:

• 6x Shivada Jade Gemstone
• 24x Artificed Dynamic Gear
• 60x Beryl Conch
• 20x Secret Source Airflow Accumulator
• 120,000x Mora

Acquaint Fate as an Ascension reward can be used to obtain all characters and their weapons in Standard Wishes and Beginners’ Wish, except the new banner, so don’t miss it.

How To Farm?

In addition to Cryo bosses already mentioned, you need to regularly farm the new world boss Secret Source Automaton: Configuration Device in version 5.6 to obtain Secret Source Airflow Accumulator, which can be found in Toyac Springs in Natlan.

As for Meshing Gear, Mechanical Spur Gear, and Artificed Dynamic Gear (which are also talent materials), they can be found at Clockwork Meka opponents in Fontaine - this should be because Escoffier is from Fontaine.

All Escoffier Talent Materials

Comparatively, Talent Materials seem to be fewer, but the farming difficulty is actually higher. These materials are:

• Teachings of Justice: 9x
• Guide to Justice: 63x
• Philosophies of Justice: 114x
• Meshing Gear: 18x
• Mechanical Spur Gear: 66x
• Artificed Dynamic Gear: 93x
• Eroded Horn: 18x
• Crown of Insight: 3x
• Mora: 4,957,500x

How To Farm These Materials?

Most of the talent materials are obtained in the same way as Ascension materials, but Guide to Justice can only be farmed on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays in Pale Forgotten Glory Domain in Fontaine.

Eroded Horn can only be obtained by defeating the other world boss Lord of Eroded Primal Fire. Although you only need to collect 18 of this material, due to the weekly boss challenge has a limited number of times and the drop rate is not 100%, this collection process is likely to take you several months.

It is worth mentioning that if you have enough other talent materials but only lack Eroded Horn, you can use Alchemy Table to utilize Dream Solvent to convert other materials into Eroded Horn to save time. As for Crown of Insight, it is mainly obtained through specific limited-time events, reputation system and battle pass.

Due to the low drop rate of some materials, you can actually choose to redeem them directly in Paimon’s Bargains, but this requires many Masterless Starglitter, Masterless Stardust, or Primogems.

After obtaining enough materials, you will be able to unlock the following talents of Escoffier in turn:

• Kitchen Skills
• Low-Temperature Cooking
• Scoring Cuts
• Better to Salivate Than Medicate
• Inspiration-Immersed Seasoning
• Constant Off-the-Cuff Cookery

Escoffier’s Combat Pros

Faced with such a hard material farming process, you may wonder why you do this? This is of course because Escoffier can provide benefits to your battles and enhance your Genshin Impact game experience.

As a Cryo sub-DPS, Escoffier can not only provide damage off-site, but also summon Cooking Mek during combat to periodically fire Cryo damage at the enemy, causing damage to the affected target while creating opportunities for teammates to trigger elemental reactions. In addition, Escoffier can also cause AOE Cryo damage through elemental bursts and heal teammates based on the damage output.

After understanding the above content, you need to develop an optimal route based on the farming location of these materials, complete the farming as soon as possible with the highest efficiency, so that Escoffier can show his skills in your team! Please act quickly!
