The Mountain-Bracing Bolt stands out as a 4-star Event Wish Exclusive Polearm in Genshin Impact, first unveiled in version 5.1. This weapon can be exclusively acquired through pulls from the Weapon Banner and is not available in the Standard Banner. Despite being a 4-star weapon, the Mountain-Bracing Bolt provides commendable buffs for Energy Recharge and Elemental Skill DMG, making it a compelling choice for Polearm users who primarily rely on their Elemental Skills for dealing damage.
This article provides an overview of the Mountain-Bracing Bolt’s primary stats and effects, as well as a list of optimal characters who can wield this Polearm effectively in Genshin Impact.
Stats and Ideal Users for Mountain-Bracing Bolt in Genshin Impact
Mountain-Bracing Bolt Stats and Effects
At Level 90 and with a Refinement Level of 1, the Mountain-Bracing Bolt boasts the following stats:
Base ATK | 565 |
Secondary Stat | 30.6% Energy Recharge |
Weapon Passive | The user experiences a 15% reduction in Climbing Stamina Consumption. Additionally, their Elemental Skill DMG is enhanced by 12%. Moreover, whenever teammates utilize their Elemental Skills, the wielder receives an additional 12% Elemental DMG boost for 8 seconds. |
From these statistics, it is evident that the Mountain-Bracing Bolt is ideally suited for characters whose damage output is primarily through their Elemental Skills. As such, it serves particularly well for sub-DPS Polearm characters. Enhancing the weapon to Refinement Level 5 amplifies the wielder’s Elemental Skill DMG by 24%, followed by another 24% boost derived from teammates activating their Elemental Skills.
Optimal Characters to Equip Mountain-Bracing Bolt
The Mountain-Bracing Bolt is particularly effective for both on-field and off-field sub-DPS characters, especially those who rely on Elemental Skills for damage. Currently, there are two standout characters who excel with this Polearm:
1) China
The 4-Star Geo character Kachina is an excellent match for the Mountain-Bracing Bolt. She notably wields this weapon during the Natlan Archon Quest cutscenes. Her main source of damage stems from her Elemental Skill, Turbo Twirly. Equipping her with the Mountain-Bracing Bolt significantly boosts her Elemental DMG while also addressing her Energy Recharge requirements.
Additionally, Kachina benefits from the weapon’s reduction in Climbing Stamina Consumption, allowing her to utilize Turbo Twirly for extended periods while scaling surfaces without exhausting her stamina.
2) Emilie
Emilie serves as a solid off-field sub-DPS character who primarily utilizes her Elemental Skill (accentuated by Elemental Reactions) for damage. By equipping her with the Mountain-Bracing Bolt, she maximizes her damage potential while activating her Elemental Skill. Since she operates mainly off-field, players can continue deploying other DPS characters to engage enemies, thereby enhancing overall team damage output.
How to Acquire Mountain-Bracing Bolt in Genshin Impact
The Mountain-Bracing Bolt is exclusive to the Event Wish and appears in Genshin Impact 5.1. Currently, it can be found on the Weapon Banner during the initial phase of version 5.1, along with other 4-Star weapons. This first phase is set to conclude on October 29, 2024, after which the weapon will not be available in any other banners.
