Genshin Impact has often been accused of being “pay to win” with its ability to get powerful, upgraded characters and weapons through spending a lot of money. But with the game single play with only select co-op instances and no PvP, you sort of have to ask yourself: win…what?

Imagine spending 200 on lootboxes in a pay to win game

NBA 2k thinks you've gone overboard

Genshin Impact is a game about farming. Yes, there are plenty of quests and story elements, but the game’s general day-to-day involves farming bosses, killing enemies, and finding resources. You lead a party of four through various challenges or explore the map, using various abilities and weapons to lay waste to your enemies.

The Hypostatic Symphony Event that is currently ongoing in the game has given players a way to do this much quicker. The event involves taking on a daily boss, a tough challenge that will reward you with in-game items and currency for scoring a certain number of points against it. When you first load into the boss instance, it will fully heal your party and completely charge your Elemental Burst, powerful abilities that you normally charge by generating energy orbs in combat.
It gets even more interesting because you can then leave the instance before starting the boss fight, and your health and abilities will all remain charged. It provides players with a rapid way to get through their daily grind while also allowing them to save on resources.
While the exploit falls into the “useful” category rather than the “game-breaking” one, it is something that many players are enjoying, as it has streamlined their daily grind and allowed them to wrap up their farming that little bit faster. The event will run until January 31, and it seems unlikely that miYoHo, the game’s developer, will make any moves to change things before then.

I don't hate him as much as I used to.....he seems to have "grown up" since he joined ESPN, but there was a time that all he ever did was write negative things about the Marlins. There is a small part of me that would love to see him wrong about Castillo.
ESPN released your boy LeBetard and StuGotz
