Genshin Impact is evolving more and more with each update, and the new 3.8 Update is coming, so we have compiled a guide on the upcoming TCG update event Forge Realm's Temper: Endless Swarm. Unlike most other events, something like The Forge Realm's Temper: Endless Swarm has never appeared in the game before.
This mini-game is very similar to the world-famous Hearthstone and is a card battle against game opponents. You can get generous rewards for completing tasks that will be available during the event. Keep reading for details!

What to expect from The Forge Realm’s Temper: Endless Swarm event
To play the event, you will need to complete the quest called “A Guest from Liyue”. To access it, you will need to fulfil several conditions, namely:
- Complete the Battlefield of Cats, Dice, and Cards quest
- Complete The Song of the Dragon and Freedom quest
- Have Adventure Rank 32 minimum
After you fulfil all of the above conditions, then according to the rules of The Guest from Liyue quest, you will need to go to Cat's Tail, where you can start completing the tasks. In total, you will have five different tasks with unique modifiers and rules.
Players will need to pit their decks against endless waves of enemies for a set amount of rounds; the more enemies you defeat, the more points you earn.
To win and get the rewards, you will need to collect a certain number of points, depending on the difficulty of the game you choose. Here are the difficulty levels and the points you need to score:
- Easy - 1000 Points
- Normal - 2000 Points
- Hard - 3000 Points
There are also additional modifiers that will allow you to get more points, we will list each of them and the points you can get by applying them below:
Opponent HP Increase
This modifier will allow you to get extra points by increasing the number of HP on your opponent's cards. The amount of additional HP varies depending on the task you are performing, so we will describe this in more detail for each task.
Rounds for Bonus
This modifier will also help you score extra points if you complete the match within the round limit you choose. There are a few tasks where the number of rounds differs, so just like with the previous modifier, we will mention this when describing each task.
We have described all the possible modifiers, so let's not waste time and move on to the tasks.
