The latest update of Genshin Impact is almost upon us, and with it comes a brand new sword. We will show you how to get the ascension materials for Cursed Blade so that you can level it up in Genshin Impact Version 2.8.
How to Get Ascension Materials for Cursed Blade
The 4-star Cursed Blade will be available for all players for free once they have completed a quest. The quest is yet to be revealed, but there are speculations that it is connected to Kazuha based on the Version 2.8 Livestream. It showed a damaged sword, and the Story Quest might be about reforging the blade and getting it as a playable sword.
Here are the stats for the Cursed Blade which Genshin Impact has revealed on their Twitter:
- Base ATK at Lvl. 90: 510
- Secondary Stat (ATK) at Lvl. 90: 41.3%
The passive attack is the Hewing Gale. Here’s what the devs have to say about it:
When a Normal, Charged, or Plunging Attack hits an opponent, it will whip up a Hewing Gale, dealing AoE DMG equal to 180% of ATK and increasing ATK by 15% for 8s. This effect can be triggered once every 8s.
As this is a reward item for completing a quest, we don’t know yet if it is refinable. DPS characters would have s great time with this sword due to the damage rotations. So, it’s a good idea to get it for your team. You can get a headstart on the ascension materials. These are mentioned below.
Mask of the Wicked Lieutenant
You can get the Mask of the Wicked Lieutenant from the Court of Flowing Sand, at Inazuma.. It is available every Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday.
Spectral Husk
You can collect the Spectral Husk from defeating Specter enemies. They roam around Watatsumi Island and Seirai Island in Inazuma.
