Collect 200 Fever Points to get the weapon. Since the event will be split into several phases, each offering different missions to complete to earn rewards, you’ll have to be consistent and log into the game at least a couple of times per week to get enough Points for the exclusive weapons. It will also grant you various other rewards.

  • Boreal Wolf’s Milk Tooth
  • Boreal Wolf’s Cracked Tooth
  • Boreal Wolf’s Broken Fang
  • Boreal Wolf’s Nostalgia
  • Gloomy Statuette

Which character to choose in Genshin Impact

Since the weapon has just released and cannot be obtained yet due to the daily limit of Fever Points that can be earned, it’s still uncertain how the weapon will be used at its best potential.

Still, some candidates are clearly put in the spotlight due to its attack boost coupled with Elemental mastery effect. Here are some of those characters.

  • Xiao
    • He can be a good choice in particular for players who aren’t spending money on the game. This weapon can be gotten for free and compares to some premium weapons.
  • Cyno
    • The weapon’s passive has good synergy with Cyno, which makes him a no-brainer. The character has very strong attack and a focus on his Electro’s Elemental skill.
  • Shenhe
    • The Windspear is very efficient on Shenhe due to her powerful scaling on attack and elemental effects.
  • Xiangling and Rosaria
    • They can have a strong synergy with the weapon because they don’t have high energy requirements.

The list goes on. It also depends heavily on how you choose to build your other characters and on which you already put your most powerful weapons.

Raiden Shogun, Zhongli, Thoma, Yun Jin, Hu Tao, and more characters are also chosen by many players to get the Windspear. It also depends on how you build their stats. There isn’t only one definitive answer.
