Genshin Impact 2.0: How to Get Beidou for Free in the Thunder Sojourn Event

Getting a free character in Genshin Impact is not an opportunity that happens very often, especially if the free character is possibly the best 4-star character in the game. Here are the details we have so far.

Thunder Sojourn Event released with Genshin Impact 2.0. takes place in Inazuma. Besides level 90 ascension material, completing these missions will give you the hero "Beidou," the badass Captain of The Crux, for FREE.

Thunder Crystal is the currency that has just become available today (July 30, 2021). You can obtain it after completing the domain Automaton Front.

You will have to defeat the new Inazuma boss, Perpetual Mechanic Array, the new type of Automaton. This boss is similar to the one you battle near Narukami Island, where you can get ascension material for Ayaka.

However, in this domain, there is a boost that will benefit electro characters, including AoE bursts attacks, with the presence of Thunder Dwelling and Nimbus Gems.

You need to obtain 1000x Thunder Crystals in order to get your Beidou's Invitation (Free Beidou). It will take 4 runs of the Automaton Front Domain to receive 1200x Thunder Crystals.
