Wriothesley is the first 5-star in Genshin Impact to have a Cryo vision and be a Catalyst user. Catalyst characters tend to inflict elemental damage with their basic and charged attacks. This results in most of their damage coming from elemental reactions. Wriothesley is no different; he has a fun playstyle comprising of him punching his opponents and inflicting Cryo on them.

Wriothesley was first added to the game during patch 4.1. He is the administrator of the Fortress of Meropide, which is Fontaine’s de facto prison. Wriothesley’s special HP-draining mechanic allows him to self-buff and deal considerable damage to targets. However, you first need to level him up quite a bit to be able to unlock his full potential.

Here’s a guide containing every material you need to fully upgrade Wriothesley’s Ascension and Talent Levels.

Just upgrading the Ascension levels won’t help when it comes to damage numbers. You need to level up Wriothesley’s combat talents to increase his overall damage output. As you level up talents, you boost his damage and effect percentage. Every combat talent can be leveled up to a maximum of 10.

Here’s a combined list of materials you need to upgrade all of the combat talents of Wriothesley:

  • 18x Meshing Gear
  • 66x Mechanical Gear Spur
  • 93x Artificed Dynamic Gear
  • 9x Teachings of Order
  • 63x Guide to Order
  • 114x Philosophies of Order
  • 18x Primordial Greenbloom
  • 3x Crown of Insight
  • 4,957,500 Mora

Recommended Talent Upgrade

If you are familiar with Wriothesley’s skill set, it is evident that most of his damage comes from his basic attacks. His normal attack talent is what you should focus on first, followed by elemental skill and elemental burst. This is recommended by us in case you do not have all the materials needed for a complete talent upgrade.
