Genshin Impact’s Version 4.0 update brought forth an intriguing addition: the 5-star bow known as The First Great Magic. This bow, associated with Lyney, has become a sought-after weapon in the game, offering benefits not only to him but also to other characters. As Lyney’s rerun approaches with Version 4.6 on April 24, players are eager to learn more about this weapon. Here’s a detailed overview of The First Great Magic, covering its stats, abilities, ascension materials, and the characters best suited to wield it.

The First Great Magic: Stats and Abilities

At level 90, The First Great Magic boasts a formidable Base ATK of 608, placing it among the highest-rated bows in the game. Its secondary stat, a remarkable 66.2% CRIT DMG, makes it particularly appealing for characters reliant on critical hits. The bow’s unique skill enhances Charged Attack DMG by 16% and offers additional buffs based on the elemental composition of your party.

For each party member sharing the Elemental Type of the wielder, they accumulate 1 Gimmick stack, while those with a different Elemental Type earn 1 Theatrics stack. With 1/2/3 or more Gimmick stacks, the wielder’s ATK increases by 16%/32%/48%. Similarly, with 1/2/3 or more Theatrics stacks, the wielder’s Movement SPD rises by 4%/7%/10%.

Best Characters for The First Great Magic

  1. Lyney: Tailor-made for him, The First Great Magic perfectly complements Lyney’s Pyro DPS playstyle, making it his ultimate weapon of choice.
  2. Ganyu: With her reliance on charged shots for damage, Ganyu benefits significantly from the bow’s ATK and CRIT DMG bonuses, amplifying her overall damage output.
  3. Tighnari: As a Dendro Bow DPS character, Tighnari synergizes well with The First Great Magic’s buffs, enhancing his effectiveness in combat.
  4. Childe: Despite its focus on Charged Attack DMG, The First Great Magic’s ATK%, CRIT DMG, and increased movement speed still make it a viable option for Childe.
