Genshin Impact Achievements: Your Witty Guide to Glory and Primogems
So, you’re in Teyvat. You’re fighting hilichurls and solving mysteries. Great! But are you making the most of your Genshin Impact experience? Achievements await. These shiny badges not only boost your ego but also grant Primogems. The game rewards your effort with “Hey, nice job!”
Conquering the “Reliable Helper” and Becoming a Perfectionist (Achievement-Wise, At Least)
Let’s start with the “Reliable Helper” Achievement. Sounds fancy, doesn’t it? It is, especially while smashing hilichurls and completing daily commissions.
The “Reliable Helper” Daily Commission Breakdown
To earn this achievement, finish the “Reliable Helper” Daily Commission consistently. Here are the steps:
- Chat with Tsarevich: Find this friendly guy. He’ll ask you to defend a spot from… wait for it, Hilichurls!
- Location, Location, Location: Tsarevich presents three locations: base of the mountains, mountainside, or mountaintop. Choose your battleground.
- Hilichurl Havoc: It’s time to fight! Defeat the Hilichurls as Tsarevich asked. Each area has its own challenge:
- Foot of the Mountains: Speed is crucial here. Destroy enemies and report back to Tsarevich in one minute for success. Think speedrun but with more battles.
- Mountainside: Protect crates! Treat them like Primogems. Don’t let you or hilichurls touch them. They’re fragile.
- Report Back: After defeating Hilichurls, return to Tsarevich and enjoy your success.
Unlocking “Perfectionist”: Because Good Enough is Never Enough
Now, onto the “Perfectionist” achievement, linked to being a “Reliable Helper.” How to earn it? Simple (but not really): achieve flawless completion of “Reliable Helper” multiple times across variations. Be a top-tier helper and the game acknowledges your hard work. Aim for that perfection!
Achievement Hunting 101: Beyond Reliable Helping
“Reliable Helper” is just the beginning. Genshin Impact has many more achievements, some easy to find, some hidden gems. Let’s explore a few:
- Telling It How It Is: Want a dose of truth? Viktor in Mondstadt’s Tales of Winter needs your… loot! Specifically, gather Mitachurl, Treasure Hoarder, and Ruin Guard items to earn this achievement. Who knew diplomacy means monster parts?

- Revue Synchronicity: Want a show? The Imaginarium Theater is your venue. Invite a character and put on a full performance. Bravo! Achievement earned! Genshin has its own version of Broadway.
- Geo Archon Anecdotes: Lore fans, rejoice! Musheng wants tales of Rex Lapis. Deliver four Liyue-related items in this commission, and you become a collector of Geo Archon anecdotes.
- What’s the Password?: Mystery awaits! Near Lamb-Devourer Rock, an Eremite Mercenary has a password. Retrieve it (through conversation or force), then unlock a door. Achievement unlocked! Secret agent Traveler at work.
- O Archon, Have I Done Right?: Seeking moral counsel? Talk to Shouta and deal with some Treasure Hoarders. Help him conclude by consulting Kouichi and Yayoi Nanatsuki. Did you do right? The achievement thinks so.

Questing for Glory (and Maybe More Achievements)

Genshin Mechanics 101: Adventure, Primogems, and More
Let’s cover some core Genshin mechanics linked to achievement-hunting:
- Adventure Rank and World Level: The maximum Adventure Rank is 60. The highest World Level is 9. Achieving these ranks is an accomplishment itself, though it doesn’t appear on the list.
- Primogems: The Shiny Currency: Primogems fuel wishes! Earn them from achievements, events, Spiral Abyss, or redeem codes. Keep an eye out for those codes; free Primogems are always great. Don’t forget the Spiral Abyss! Early floors offer 100 Primogems per star (max 3), while the tougher ones offer 50 (also max 3). Dive into the Abyss for primogems!
- Genshin Impact Gift Cards: Want more Primogems? Genshin Gift Cards are prepaid codes for Genesis Crystals or Welkin Moon subscriptions. Treat yourself or another traveler!
- Characters: Building Your Dream Team: Building characters can be an achievement itself. For ease, consider Lynette (4-star Anemo) and Kazuha (5-star Anemo). They’re straightforward to gear up and deal heavy damage. Curious about character dialogue? Noelle excels in hangouts while Albedo chats at events.
- Unlocking Scaramouche (The Balladeer): Want to battle Scaramouche in his Trounce Domain? Progress through Archon Quest Chapter 3: Act 5 – Where the Boat of Consciousness Lies. Progression is essential!
What Makes a “Helper” Truly “Reliable”? Philosophical Detour!
Returning to the “Reliable Helper” achievement prompts deeper reflection on “helper” and “reliable.”
- Biblical “Helper”: In English, “helper” appears subservient. However, in the Bible, the Hebrew word “ezer” describes divine support or military aid. God is referred to as Israel’s “ezer.” Thus, in Genshin, you channel divine power against hilichurls!
- Reliability Defined:A reliable person embodies dependability and trustworthiness, always meeting expectations. In Genshin terms,…
- A reliable helper defeats hilichurls. They protect crates and report back to Tsarevich on time. This job is simple but essential for achieving perfection.
- The Ideal Helper: Ideal Helpers show compassion. They help others. In Genshin, this means Travelers assist NPCs with daily tasks, even if they face more hilichurls.
Miscellaneous Genshin Wisdom
Here are some miscellaneous Genshin tidbits:
- Defeating the Elusive Rilai: Want to defeat Rilai? The mysteries of Teyvat run deep. Explore more and engage in strategic combat.
- Curing Anna’s Ailment: Remember Anna and Anthony in Mondstadt? In the “Miracle Medicine” quest, help Anthony gather ingredients for a prescription from a Liyue doctor. Complete this, and in “Recuperating From a Severe Illness,” Anna recovers! A heartwarming story.
- The Tsaritsa’s Transformation: Wonder why the Tsaritsa is what she is? Khaenri’ah’s destruction changed her. Her love turned cold. She rebelled against the divine. She seeks peace through war. Heavy stuff indeed.
