Heavenly Sword in Genshin Impact: how to get it and who it suits

Heavenly Sword in Genshin impact — a legendary one-handed weapon from the standard banner. Thanks to a good basic attack and energy recovery in the additional stat, it can suit both s and some sub-DDs playing from the pocket. In addition to pouring a large amount of VE, the sword is able to increase the damage and speed of the carrier due to its ive effect.

In this guide, we will tell you how to get the Heavenly Sword and what resources are needed to upgrade it. We will figure out which characters it is most suitable for and how to realize its full potential.

How to get the Heavenly Sword

The Heavenly Sword, like any other 5⭐️ weapon, can be obtained by dropping from gacha. It is part of the standard set, so it can drop from both the standard prayer "Wanderlust" and the limited weapon banner "Incarnation of the Deity".

Sword characteristics

• A type: one-handed sword
• Rarity: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
• Basic attack: 46-608
• Additional feature: energy recovery 12-55,1%
• ive: Increases critical hit chance on 4/5/6/7/8%. Elemental Burst awakens the power of the heavens, increasing movement and attack speed by 10%, and normal and charged attacks deal additional damage equal to 20/25/30/35/40% from attack power. All effects last 12 seconds.

How to Raise and Awaken the Heavenly Sword

Resource	Rarity and total quantity
	Arctic Wolf Milk Tooth ×5 Cracked Arctic Wolf Tooth ×14 Broken Arctic Wolf Fang ×14 Arctic Wolf Nostalgia x6
	Branches of the arteries of the earth ×23 Leaves of the Arteries of the Earth ×27 Sprouts of the arteries of the earth ×41
	Slime Slime x15 Slime discharge ×23 Slime concentrate x27
	Mora x1
	Reinforcement ore ×907

To upgrade the Heavenly Sword, you will need resources that are found in large quantities throughout Teyvat:

• Arctic wolf teeth — are given as a reward for completing the Cecilia's Garden dungeon to the west of Mondstadt. The resource can be obtained in Tuesday, Friday и Sunday.
• Branches/leaves/sprouts of arteries lands - material dropped by Abyss Mages. These elite enemies can be found in sufficient numbers in almost any part of the map.

• Mucus / secretions / slime concentrate - a resource that remains after killing slimes, the most common elemental creatures found in Teyvat.

To awaken the Heavenly Sword to the maximum level (P5), you need to get an additional 4 duplicate weapons from the banner. Considering that the chance of a specific legendary item dropping from the standard set is extremely low and has no guarantee, a lot of spins may be needed for full pumping. Each new awakening level gives the sword an increase in the ive skill in the form of an additional increase in crit. chance by 1% and damage from normal and charged attacks after the ultimate by 5%.

Who is the Heavenly Sword suitable for in Genshin Impact?

Due to the demand for its characteristics, the Heavenly Sword is one of the most versatile weapons for s and sub-DDs. Energy recovery in the main stat allows the bearer to use the ultimate more often, and a good basic attack and increased damage in the ive will give a DPS increase. To activate the second half of the ive skill, the bearer of the weapon only needs to use an explosion of the elements and attack opponents with basic attacks. Due to the high VE indicator, this sword is ideal for characters with an expensive ultimate.

Character	Recommendation
Bennett	The best thing to do with the Heavenly Sword is to give it to Bennett. The high energy regeneration rate will help the Mondstadt adventurer to maintain his Circle of Inspiration on the battlefield at all times, allowing the party to receive stable healing and attack buffs.
Jean	Like Bennett, it is important for Djinn to use her ult as often as possible. That is why the leader of the Ordo Favonius will feel comfortable with this sword. The weapon's ive skill perfectly combines with Djinn's ability to heal the squad through frequent basic attacks.
Ayaka	Despite the fact that the Heavenly Sword barely helps Ayaka with the balance of crits, it still feels quite comfortable on her. Energy recovery allows you to ult on cooldown, and to implement the ive skill, you do not need to perform any additional actions. It is suitable as a temporary replacement for the crafted Amenoma Kageuchi.
Qi qi	A good basic attack and a high rate of energy recovery of the Heavenly Sword will help with balancing the stats of the zombie girl and will make the game for her quite comfortable, providing high-quality healing.
Xingqiu	All that Heavenly Sword can give to Xingqiu is the vital energy recovery. The second half of the ive skill is useless for him, and the increase in critical chance is too small. Can be used in the absence of worthy alternatives or a severe lack of energy.
Pyro GG	The weapon gives the Traveler a lot of basic attack and energy recovery. Since the hero needs to press Elemental Burst, VE is quite useful for him. However, the character in the sub-DD role does not use normal and charged attacks, so the second part of the sword's ive will not work on him.

How the weapon works

The Heavenly Sword is extremely easy to use and requires almost nothing to realize its potential. Simply giving it to a character will give them a significant boost to energy regeneration. To fully utilize the ive skill, the sword's wielder must remain active and attack the enemy after using the ultimate, but this is often not necessary.

In most cases, the Heavenly Sword is placed on s who enter the field only to use Elemental Burst and the skill (Qi qi). In this case, rotation is extremely simple:

1. Play as usual, periodically switching to the Heavenly Sword wielder to collect Elemental Orbs, use E, and store energy.
2. Once the desired hero's ultimate gauge is full, press Q to activate an elemental blast.
3. Use the ult and skills of other characters.
4. Switch to your main damage dealer and deal damage until the buffs run out.
5. Repeat the rotation again. Ideally, the Heavenly Sword wielder's energy should have recovered by this point, otherwise continue to accumulate it.

Playing as Jean Repeat in the same order, but make sure that her ultimate activates after the actions of other s in the squad. This is important, as Dandelion Field inflates the other elements, dealing elemental damage and inflicting statuses on enemies.

When using a weapon as a primary damage dealer, there is no point in thinking about a special rotation, just make sure that the sword owner remains on the battlefield after the ultimate for the duration of the buffs.
