Many fans of\u00a0Genshin Impact<\/em><\/strong> were looking forward to the game’s Version 1.2 update primarily for its promise of an entirely new region to explore. Dragonspine, a vast Cryo-themed mountain range, was introduced as part of the update, and with it, came many new enemies, characters, quests, and even features.<\/p>\n

If Travelers venture out into Dragonspine, they’ll find that the new\u00a0Genshin Impact<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>region is particularly dangerous simply because of its climate. The so-called Sub-Zero Climate in Dragonspine slowly inflicts players with the Sheer Cold status, which when in full effect, can defeat even the strongest players.<\/p>\n

So far, Sub-Zero Climate is the first and only specialized form of weather in\u00a0Genshin Impact<\/em>. Of course, there are rainy moments in-game<\/a>, but rain itself only applies the Wet status, which bears no inherently negative or positive consequences. Sheer Cold, however, has rather dire consequences if allowed to accumulate.<\/p>\n

To counter Sheer Cold, players must simply do the obvious: find a way to keep warm<\/a>.\u00a0Some sources\u00a0of warmth include standard fires, like those from torches and generated by Pyro magic, Warming Seelie, a new red type of Seelie, and Scarlet Quartz, which\u00a0repels Sheer Cold altogether. This is only a handful of the options available, so players really can stay safe if they’re thoughtful before venturing out into Dragonspine.<\/p>\n

Players may now be wondering, well, “What’s the big deal?” if Sheer Cold accumulates. The big deal is that players will immediately begin to constantly lose HP, until they die. Simply put, the Sheer Cold status inflicted by Dragonspine’s Sub-Zero Climate will slowly kill players over time. As such, adventuring in Dragonspine is particularly cumbersome<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Naturally, many\u00a0Nintendo fans\u00a0are associating this feature with that of the “tundra” biome found in\u00a0The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.<\/em> However, while players in that game can counter the cold with neat armor and the like,\u00a0Genshin Impact\u00a0<\/em>Travelers must rely on\u00a0bare-bone basics. That is, raw fire,\u00a0food, some rocks, and a single gadget.<\/p>\n

Specifically, the\u00a0existing ways to combat Sheer Cold in\u00a0Genshin Impact\u00a0<\/em>are currently as follows:<\/p>\n
