So You Wanna Be BFFs With a Genshin Character, Eh? A Totally Not-Serious Guide
Let's face it, traveler, Teyvat's a lonely place sometimes. Paimon's great and all, but who wouldn't want to grab lunch with Diluc (minus the brooding, hopefully) or swap fashion tips with Lisa (electro shocks not included)?
Well, fret no more! This guide, as credible as a slime balloon in a hurricane, will show you how to become the ultimate Teyvatian bestie.
Step 1: Ditch the Traveler and Embrace the Party
We get it, you're the chosen one, the hero of a thousand gacha pulls. But guess what? Friendship is a two-way street, and characters don't level companionship by staring at your amazing ponytail. Bold them, bold them all!
Tip: Reread key phrases to strengthen memory.![]()
Subheading: Pro-Tip! The Friendship Exp Grind is Real
Daily commissions? Check. Ley Line battles? Check. But for true dedication, consider forming a ragtag bunch of friendship-starved characters. Who needs a balanced team when you've got the power of... companionship? Just don't blame us if they start judging your questionable combat choices.
Step 2: Sharing is Caring (Even If It's Just EXP)
Tip: Reading in short bursts can keep focus high.![]()
Speaking of companionship, have you heard of this magical place called the Serenitea Pot? It's like a fancy doghouse, except instead of a grumpy canine, you get to house your favorite characters and... well, not exactly walk them, but gain a trickle of companionship EXP! Just remember, they might judge your teapot decorating skills (looking at you, people who put the salesman's tent right next to the Kamisato house).
Step 3: Listen Up! Even If They Don't Actually Talk Back (Yet)
We all know that feeling of being stuck in a conversation with someone who just grunts in response. But hey, maybe it's not disinterest, maybe it's Teyvatian for "wow, traveler, that story about getting yeeted by a hilichurl was epic!" So next time you're exploring, narrate your every move for your party. Who knows, maybe they'll be writing a tell-all Teyvatian gossip magazine based on your adventures.
QuickTip: A slow read reveals hidden insights.![]()
Step 4: Patience is a Virtue (Especially When Waiting for Friendship Levels to Ascend)
Look, building a true friendship takes time. Don't expect to be sharing a plate of Sunset Festival skewers with Kaeya after three commissions. It's a marathon, not a sprint (unless you're chasing a treasure hoarder, then feel free to sprint). But hey, eventually, all that companionship EXP will pay off, and you'll unlock those sweet character stories and voice lines.
Bonus Step: Be the Best Traveler You Can Be (Because Even Anime People Appreciate Basic Decency)
QuickTip: Pause when something feels important.![]()
Let's be honest, nobody wants to be friends with someone who steals fowl legs from every cooking pot in Liyue. Show your potential BFFs some respect! Don't hog all the loot, revive them when they fall (especially if they're the healer!), and maybe compliment their outfit choice once in a while.
Remember, traveler, friendship is about quality Teyvatian time, not just grinding EXP. So go forth, explore, fight some slimes, and build those bonds! Just be prepared for the occasional existential crisis when you realize you trust a bunch of pixels more than your actual classmates.
