Expeditions are a key part of Genshin Impact. Not only are they an easy way to gain Mora and other resources, but they can help you with farming your battle pass too. Here’s a guide to expeditions, including the best characters to use and areas to explore.
What if there was a way where you could farm Mora in Genshin Impact by doing absolutely nothing — not even a survey? Well, expeditions might seem “too good to be true” in that aspect, but it’s actually real.
All you have to do is send characters out to explore Teyvat, and they’ll return with goodies like Mora, ores, ingredients, and other materials. However, there’s a knack to expeditions, like picking the right characters and areas to explore.
We’ve got a guide right here to Genshin Impact’s expeditions with all the tips and tricks.
How to send Genshin Impact characters on an expedition
Sending characters on expeditions in Genshin Impact is easy. All you need to do is go to the Adventurer’s Guild in any major city, then speak to Katheryne and send your allies on their way.
Here’s a step-by-step guide for doing just that.
- Teleport to the Adventurer’s Guild in either Mondstadt, Liyue, or Inazuma
- Speak to Katheryne
- Click on “Dispatch Character on Expedition”
- Choose where you want to explore and for how long (4/8/12/20 hours).
- Pick your character and send them off!
Every character in the game can go on expedition except for the Traveler, and you don’t need to worry about them not being in your party — that old condition has been removed from the game. A character can be in your party and be on expedition at the same time.
Expedition buffs: Best Genshin Impact characters to use
While every character can explore, some do it better than others. There are two types of expedition buffs in Genshin Impact: ones that reduce time taken, and ones that give you bonus resources.
Only a select few characters have these, and they’re region-specific, so be sure to utilize their powers effectively when you go out on expeditions.

| Chongyun | Liyue | When dispatched on an expedition in Liyue, time consumed is reduced by 25%. |
| Bennett | Mondstadt | When dispatched on an expedition in Mondstadt, time consumed is reduced by 25%. |
| Kujou Sara | Inazuma | When dispatched on an expedition in Inazuma, time consumed is reduced by 25%. |
