Short answer: push the Archon Quest for fast Adventure Rank, spend your Original Resin every day, save Primogems for limited banners you care about, and claim every active code first.

Priorities for new players

  1. Follow the Archon Quest. It raises your Adventure Rank quickly, unlocks systems, and pays out Primogems.
  2. Spend Resin daily. Original Resin refills over time, so use it on Talent and weapon material domains rather than letting it overflow.
  3. Save for limited banners. Primogems are scarce. Read the Wish pity system before pulling and commit only to characters you want.
  4. Claim free rewards. Redeem every working code on the Genshin Impact codes page, and collect daily Commissions and login rewards.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Do not wish on a banner just because you have the Primogems. Wait for a character you will build.
  • Do not skip your four Daily Commissions; the Primogems add up fast.
