Genshin Impact: Solar Pearl – How to get it, stats, and ascension materials

In Genshin Impact, the Solar Pearl is a 4-star Catalyst weapon that can only be obtained through the game's monthly Battle Pass system. To receive this one-of-a-kind weapon, you'll need to get the Battle Pass. The Solar Pearl is a wonderful passive for the rare Catalyst primary DPS character, offering your carry some Crit Rate. Purchase the Battle Pass and level it up to Level 30 to receive the Solar Pearl. When you reach Level 30, you'll be able to select one of five battle pass weapons. Each weapon type is represented by one of the five battle pass weapons.

Completing daily, weekly, and special missions will help you level up your Battle Pass. To level up once in the Battle Pass, you'll need 1,000 EXP, which you can get in three or four weeks if you keep up with the tasks.

Is the Solar Pearl any good?

The Solar Pearl is often a decent choice for the game's few Catalyst Main DPS characters. Currently, the value of this weapon should rise as more DPS characters are released with a Catalyst. Yanfei, Ningguang, and Klee are the Catalyst characters who might benefit from this weapon right now. The weapon Dodoco Tales, which was handed away for free before, is preferred by all three characters. However, if you missed the event and don't have that weapon, the Solar Pearl is a viable alternative.

The Solar Pearl is also up against the Widsith, another 4-star weapon. If you have to choose between the two, it's best to go with the weapon that possesses the stat you're lacking. For example, if you already have a lot of Crit Rate, it's better to choose Widsith. If you have a lot of Crit DMG, though, the Solar Pearl is the way to go.
