Genshin - How to Level Up

The Exaiphanes Blade is leveled up in a unique way, in which you must have the Traveler cast a Cryo skill with the Exaiphanes Blade on a Snezhnayan Statue of the Seven, causing a ring of diamonds to appear around it.

Interacting with the Statue in this state will unlock one tally and allow you to upgrade the Exaiphanes Blade. Currently with 5 statues, you can get the weapon as high as Level 90, at Refinement Level 3.

Traveler's Best in Slot Weapon

The Sword's effect only applies to the Traveler, and thus they are the only unit that can truly equip this weapon. It is also undoubtedly their Best-in-Slot due to the free 33% CRIT Rate, 42% CRIT DMG, and scaling ATK% bonus it specifically gives to them.
