Genshin Impact The Catch: How to Get, Weapon Ascension Materials, and More

The Genshin Impact 2.1 update “Floating World under the Moonlight” will introduce the Electro Archon, Baal, as one of the playable characters that players can obtain from the Reign of Serenity event wish banner.

Since Baal is an electro user and a polearm wielder, two new polearms are also coming to the game. We're talking about The Catch and the Engulfing Lightning.

The Catch is a four-star weapon whose secondary stat is Energy Recharge%, and weapon skill, Shanty, which increases Elemental Burst DMG by 16% and Elemental Burst CRIT Rate by 6. one of the best, if not the best weapon. for Baal.

Keep in mind that the stats above are only from the R1 version of The Catch. With a level 5 refinement, the Catch is even better than the Engulfing Lightning. Why can you ask?. Because weapon skill is not based on Baal stats. And, the Catch is a free weapon.

Players can obtain the polearm "The Catch" from the Inazuma Fishing Association. Once the Version 2.1 update is live and you're done with the new introduction to fishing activities, go talk to the NPC, Kujirai Momiji. You can find her near the shores of Inazuma City. You can exchange the polearm for certain items that are not yet known.


But since it's tied to the new fishing activity, you'll probably have to trade fish for the weapon.
