Genshin Impact Fayz Trials event guide: Weakness Capturing Challenge and gameplay details

Although Genshin Impact's Lost Riches hasn't concluded yet, a new event will be added for Travelers to enjoy. Fayz Trials are new combat events that will be available on September 8 and will stay in the game for more than two weeks. With this addition, players can farm more Primogems for the upcoming Ganyu and Kokomi banners.

During the event, players can use Fayz Potion to enter Time Dilation mode where they can spot the enemies' weaknesses. At the same time, players can use Viewfinder to capture those weaknesses and gain bonuses called Supersense to deal damage in the challenges.

Like most combat events in Genshin Impact, the Fayz Trials will have a total of seven combat challenges and a new challenge will be unlocked each day for the first seven days of the event.

In this event, the developers will provide specific trial teams to Travelers for each challenge. Elemental Resonances will not be available in the trials. Players need not build these parties as everyone will have the same weapons and artifacts.

In the challenge domain, Fayz Tinctures will be restored gradually to obtain Fayz Potion. Gamers can use this special potion to make the Traveler's mind extremely sharp, enabling them to enter Time Dilation mode where time virtually stops during combat. Both, characters and enemies, are static during this state and won't be able to move from their current position.

Alternatively, Travelers can accumulate Fayz Tinctures by continuously defeating opponents to obtain up to three uses of the Fayz Potion. In addition, some enemies have special golden weaknesses that will significantly increase the accumulated value of Fayz Tinctures.

During the Time Dilation state, Genshin Impact players can use the Viewfinder to capture their opponent's weaknesses and unlock the Supersense Skill. When the number of weaknesses captured reaches a certain number, the power of these special skills will be enhanced.
