Can You Beat Genshin Impact Using Only Physical Damage?!



Genshin Impact has a pretty complicated damage system. All these elemental combos are way too complicated for my brain, so I think I’ll just be using Physical DMG this time. I want to see how far this limited damage type can take you.

Rules:
I can only use physical damage while attacking enemies. If I accidentally kill an enemy with elemental skills or births, then I will Spin the punishment wheel.
Any time I need to use an element for anything, I can use an element.
I cannot fight any enemies in Co-op.
All characters are allowed, just as long as I don’t use elemental damage with them.
No catalyst characters.

  1. But like, isn't it boring not being able to use elemental skills in fights? I feel it would be okay to at least use xinyan's shield or barbera's heal for that matter (or to at least get razor ascention materials using elements). Just don't hit enemies with elemental damage through the normal playthrough. Barbera's heal wont deal damage so she might be useful in a slot for you. The skill won't be dealing any damage, all it does is apply hydro. This is way too hard I feel.

  2. You know technically you're not hurting the electro hypostasis with elemental damage just the things it summons which aren't really enemies. Also yes unfully charged arrows will still paralyze a ruin guard

  4. Back in the day, physical xiangling with prototype crescent was one of the most f2p ways to get good damage (well, at least at the time)

    Xiangling attacks really quickly, and prototype crescent adds an extra attack each time you hit.

  5. The answer is obviously yes, not considering elemental things that require interaction with the respective element, u can easily beat the game only Physical, as its the only type of damage that can damage anything reguardless or buffs or etc. Yes even Electro cube can be beaten without elements.
