So You Wanna Be BFFs With a Genshin Character, Eh? A Totally Not Serious Guide
Let's face it, traveler, Teyvat is a lonely place. Sure, you've got Paimon, the ever-present emergency food (questionable taste, but hey, beggars can't be choosers), but sometimes you crave a deeper connection. You want a buddy to fight alongside, share mora with (emphasis on share), and maybe even listen to your dramatic readings of adventurer's guild notices. Enter the glorious world of Genshin friendships!
But here's the thing: building a friendship takes work, even in a fantasy world filled with elemental magic. Don't worry, though! This totally legit, not-at-all-made-up guide will have you and your favorite character exchanging pinky promises in no time.

| How To Get Your Friendship Level Up In Genshin |
Step 1: Operation "Character Stalker"
QuickTip: Skim the intro, then dive deeper.
First things first, gotta pick your target. Be warned, traveler, this is a commitment. You'll be spending a lot of time with this person, so choose wisely. Do they have a cool fighting style? A voice that makes butterflies erupt in your stomach (we've all been there)? Maybe they just have a really good fashion sense (looking at you, Fischl). The choice is yours!
Step 2: Ditch the Traveler (For Now)
Tip: Stop when confused — clarity comes with patience.
I know, I know, it feels wrong. But here's the truth: the traveler doesn't get friendship EXP. Harsh, but them's the breaks. So bench the traveler (don't worry, they'll understand...hopefully) and build a team around your chosen character.
Pro-Tip: Want things to move extra fast? Forget fancy team comps, just shove all the low-friendship characters together. It's like a Teyvatan sleepover, but with more slime-core enemies.
Step 3: The Grind is Real (But It Doesn't Have To Be)
Tip: Reread sections you didn’t fully grasp.
Alright, here comes the not-so-fun part: earning that sweet, sweet companionship EXP. Daily commissions, ley line battles, world quests – they all contribute a little bit. But let's be real, who wants to grind Treasure Hoarders for hours on end? Here's where things get interesting.

Sub-Step 3a: The Art of the Log-In, Log-Out
Feeling burnt out? Here's a secret Teyvatan technique: log in, swap to your friendship team, then log right back out. Poof! A small amount of companionship EXP appears for each character. It's not much, but hey, every bit counts (and it's way more relaxing than fighting hilichurls).
Tip: Read carefully — skimming skips meaning.
Sub-Step 3b: The Serenitea Pot - Friendship Spa
Ever heard of a magic teapot that doubles as a friendship farm? Welcome to the Serenitea Pot! Place your characters inside, crank up the Adeptal Energy, and voila! Slow and steady companionship EXP gain while you're off adventuring (or, you know, taking a nap).
Step 4: The Payoff - BFFs FTW!
As your friendship level increases, you'll unlock voice lines, character stories, and maybe even a hangout event (think: a fancy date in Teyvat). You'll go from greetings like "Hello, traveler" to inside jokes and playful banter. Basically, you'll become Teyvatan BFFs.
Remember: Friendship isn't just about the rewards (although those namecards are pretty snazzy). It's about the journey, the battles fought together, and the times you accidentally set each other on fire (because hey, that's what friends are for, right?). So go forth, traveler, build those friendships, and remember – Teyvat is a much more fun place with a buddy by your side!
