Whether you’re a veteran Genshin Impact player or someone new to the spiral abyss grind, learning how to effectively manage your in-game resources can make or break your long-term experience. In a detailed guide from creator Amber Benita, she shares practical tips for saving everything from Mora to EXP, talent books, and Primogems.

Let’s walk through each resource-saving strategy to help you stretch every pull and power-up as far as possible.

💰 Mora Management: Spend Smart, Not Fast

Mora is the backbone of every action in Genshin, and yet, it vanishes faster than we expect. Amber suggests:

  • Build one character at a time to avoid scattering your Mora across half-finished units.
  • Test characters before committing. Use trial domains, research playstyles, or borrow them in Imaginarium Theater.
  • Stretch upgrades over multiple days to avoid resource burnout.
  • Don’t overlevel support talents. Skip normal attacks for off-field supports like Xingqiu or Furina.
  • Set Mora goals and minimums. Aim to farm a certain amount or never fall below a comfort threshold.

📘 EXP Books: Save Every Bit

Just like Mora, EXP is precious. Amber’s pro tip:

  • Stop one book short of full leveling if you can’t ascend the character immediately. Characters passively gain EXP from kills and commissions.
  • Use friendship teams to level characters passively without feeding them EXP.
  • Skip the level 20 wish if you’re short on EXP books. Focus on units you’ll actually use.

📚 Talent Books: Chest Rewards Matter

If you’re low on resin or trying to raise multiple characters:

  • Explore first. Talent books are hidden in chests across Teyvat. Exploring Natlan, Mondstadt, or Fontaine can yield a surprising amount.
  • Save up and stockpile so you’re never caught unprepared for an emergency build.
  • Skip talent domains if you can farm books naturally.

🧪 Weekly Mats: Slow Burn Wins

For boss drops and talent ascension materials:

  • Always do your three discounted weekly bosses.
  • Avoid using Dream Solvents immediately unless you urgently need one piece. Saving them stretches out your upgrade pace and avoids regrets later.
  • Let characters come together gradually rather than rushing every build the moment you get a new 5-star.

⚔️ Billets: Don’t Craft Too Soon

When it comes to crafting weapons:

  • Keep Billet Troves unopened until you know exactly what weapon you want.
  • Avoid R5 craftables unless you need them. Most characters are fine with R1 versions, saving billets for future-proofing.
  • Research before you craft. Don’t make a Whiteblind if you never plan to use Noelle!
  • Craft multi-use weapons like Iron Sting or Tidal Shadow. They’re flexible across characters.

🏺 Artifact Strategy: Don’t Gamble Blind

Artifacts are the biggest resin sink in the game—Amber’s advice is clear:

  • Only level pieces with two or more desired substats.
  • Avoid gambling on “maybe” pieces. Don’t waste fodder chasing a 1-stat roll that might never come.
  • Use the Artifact Strongbox instead of trashing leveled 5-stars.
  • Transmute artifacts with bad stats instead of using them as fodder—you might get what you need.

💎 Saving Primogems Like a Pro

Here’s where it gets juicy. Amber’s best Primogem-saving tips:

  • Reruns exist. Skip characters you’re unsure about—they’ll come back eventually.
  • Avoid pulling “just for pity.” You might get the wrong 5-star and waste your entire savings.
  • Skip the standard banner. Use shop pulls and fates—not Primogems.
  • Don’t pull for 4-stars. They’re not guaranteed, and most will come back or be given in events.
  • Only pull weapon banners if you want both 5-star weapons. Don’t chase a single one.
  • Set saving goals and spending limits. Amber aimed for 28,000 Primogems before pulling for Albedo—and it worked.
  • Pull slowly. Spreading your pulls across days hurts less than spending 20k in one sitting.

Final Thoughts

Amber Benita’s approach to long-term Genshin sustainability emphasizes thoughtful planning, not just impulsive upgrades. Her holistic breakdown across every type of Genshin resource—Mora, EXP, talent books, artifacts, and Primogems—is a must-read (and must-watch) for anyone hoping to level smarter and avoid burnout.
