The rerun of Hyakunin Ikki in Genshin Impact 3.1 brings 6 new trial characters that players can use to create their tag teams. Players will need to create 6 tag teams and constantly swap between them in a serial order to maintain the event buffs and deal more damage to opponents.

Newcomers are advised to pair a DPS character with a shield character or healer/buffer so all characters can sustain during the challenge.

Here is a list of Trial characters that are available for use in the Hyakunin Ikki rerun:

• Tighnari
• Diluc
• Sangonomiya Kokomi
• Collei
• Sucrose
• Candace

Genshin Impact players can also equip each tag team with a set of Secret Normal Arts and Transmission Arts. These are buffs, and using the correct ones will exponentially increase your character's damage output.

While Normal Secret remains available during all six challenges, the Transmission Arts changes as per challenge.

Maintain Ferocious Fervor to score more points

During each challenge, as Genshin Impact players defeat waves of opponents and switch teams, they will accumulate Fervor, increasing their Ferocious Fervor level. A Higher Ferocious Fervor level will allow players to obtain more points for defeating enemies, helping players complete objectives and receive rewards.

Each opponent is worth certain points, and players can increase the points by raising the difficulty, which will also increase the multiplier. Although players can score more points, keep in mind that their opponents will be more tanky and will also deal more damage.
