Genshin Impactweaponsare the core of every character’s build, always having an interesting story about their origin. A recent post on the officialGenshin Impactsubreddit has revealed an interesting real-life replica of a popular five-star sword - Cinnabar Spindle. Reddit user vyecos is a known cosplayer, often portrayingGenshin Impactcharacters such as Childe, Dainsleif, and Diluc. Cinnabar Spindle is a very specific sword as its secondary stats provide defensive power.
Cinnabar Spindle is a very controversial weapon in theGenshin Impactcommunity, and it’s considered to be the best and the worst weapon at the same time. The main reason for this is that the Cinnabar Spindle suits only oneGenshin Impactcharacter - the five-star Geo alchemist Albedo. Since his release in update 1.2, Albedo has been one of thestrongest support characters inGenshin Impact. In addition to that, his kit is one of the easiest to execute right now which makes him even more reliable in his role.
The Cinnabar Spindle was released two months ago inGenshin Impactupdate 2.3alongside Albedo’s and Eula’s double banner. This update was the first one to include the double banner mechanic which allows players to opt for two limited five-star characters in one banner cycle. The double banners usually include re-runs which could be miHoYo’s way of compensating for the absence of a new character in the banner cycle.
Albedo is a very underratedGenshin Impactsupport charactersince his impact is not as obvious as it is with Zhongli. He is a crucial part of the popular Geo party trend a lot of players opt for these days. Albedo and Zhongli’s Elemental Skills have one of the greatest synergies in the game, dealing constant Geo damage in a large area for a long period of time. His Burst deals far less damage, but it provides multiple damage buffs, especially if his Constellations are maxed out.
Genshin Impactis now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5 with a Switch version in development.
