A Genshin Impact player has shared a hilarious video on how to reach a chest by using the Pyro user Bennett. Exploration along with unique character design are probably the two main favorite aspects of the game for most Travelers which is why the addition of a new major region is considered the main event of the year.
Traveling and exploration have probably become even more popular as Genshin Impact introduced a new diving mechanic with the most recent 4.0 major update. This new feature allows players to explore a completely new world that's filled with surprises including new chests with precious rewards.
There are many ways Travelers can acquire chests, from completing various overworld puzzles to beating different groups of enemies that can be found all over Teyvat. Some Genshin Impact chests are placed in hard-to-reach places which require players to use some of the powers of their playable characters. While most players usually use simple skills like Venti's Skyward Sonnet or Abledo's Solar Isotoma to resolve these issues, some Travelers can get much more creative in their approach. A Reddit user by the name of Paramita-Papilio has shared a hilarious video of how to collect the rewards of a chest in the Liyue region. This Exquisite Chest is placed on a high platform surrounded by two lower ones, but players cannot reach all the platforms with their regular jumps.
The footage in the video shows the player using Bennett's Elemental Skill, Passion Overload, to reach each of the second and third platforms. This skill has a tap and a hold variation which have different effects. Holding the Elemental Skill button with Bennett will cause him to perform a powerful AoE Pyro attack that also launches the character backward.
Even though the third platform is much higher than the second one, the player managed to trigger the mechanic to collect the chest rewards which included Primogems while mid-air. Fans seem to like the silliness of this trick as the post reached over 4k upvotes on the game's main subreddit with many fans praising Paramita-Papilio's creativity.
Some players have also pointed out that this video perfectly resembles Bennett's character since the official storyline revealed that he seems to be cursed with extraordinary bad luck. However, despite his disadvantages, Bennett always seems to somehow get the job done. He is also one of, if not the most popular four-star character in Genshin Impact thanks to a simple kit that provides tons of healing.
Genshin Impact is now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
