Players of the free-to-play miHoYo title, Genshin Impact, have discovered an exploit that may be an unintended benefit to the newly introduced Hypostatic Symphony event thanks to the design of the boss encounters. [Thanks, GameRant!]

In the new event, players face variations of the game’s Hypostasis enemy. One such variation is the Violet Lightning Concerto, which counters electro damage with AOE electro damage and can be faced in both single player and cooperative modes. At the start of that fight, player characters automatically have their health bars and Elemental Burst gauges filled to max. This bonus also applies to other Hypostatic Symphony challenges. While this effect can aid players against the event monsters, there is nothing stopping them from simply exiting the encounter through the pause menu.

With a quick and effortless method to recharge these resources, players should be able to undertake other tasks in the game more efficiently. It isn’t clear if the developers will do anything to mitigate these exploit benefits outside of the event-specific fights, but, even if they don’t, the Hypostatic Symphony event will still end on January 31, 2021.

Rewards for the ongoing Hypostatic Symphony include a Hypostasis name card and Primogems.

Genshin Impact is available for PlayStation 4, PC, Stadia, and mobile devices. A version for the Nintendo Switch is currently in development. A recent update to the game added a new story quest alongside a new banner featuring Ganyu and Xiangling.
