Weapons

This is a sub-page of Proto:Genshin Impact/CBT1.

This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: Look through the CBT1 text assets, they may contain additional early names for weapons released in later CBTs and later versions.

CBT1 has many unused weapons that would appear in later versions of the game, as well as unreleased weapons and old versions of weapons later released with a new design. Many of these would still remain in the files in CBT2.

Note that many of the weapon series names and weapons associated with them are largely fan conjecture based on appearance and other in-game factors such as lore, and are thus mostly unconfirmed.

Early Weapon Designs#

Early versions of weapons which were redesigned before release.

Inazuma Series#

Earlier versions of the 5★ weapons Mistsplitter Reforged and Kagura's Verity added to the game in Versions 2.0 and 2.5 respectively.

Amethyst Series#

Earlier versions of the 4★ weapons Amenoma Kageuchi, Hakushin Ring and Hamayumi added to the game in Version 2.0.

Misc Items#

Wooden Sword can be seen equipped on Ellin of Mondstadt during her daily combat trainings; however, there was no way for players to obtain it until Version 4.0, when a Quest Item named Jabberwock's Holy Sword / Holy Blade of Narzissenkreuz was added to the game. It uses the same model, but since it's only an item, unfortunately, players cannot use it as a weapon. Its design hasn't been changed since CBT1.

CBT1 / Release

Unused Weapons#

Weapons that currently remain unused or unobtainable in-game.

Unused 3-Star Series#

An unused claymore, and catalyst named Quartz and Amber Wand respectively. Though they would be obtainable in the gacha system during CBT2, they don't exist in the current release of the game. Their designs are heavily similar to other later released weapons, meaning they may have been cut and had their designs repurposed.

Quartz bears some resemblance to Skyrider Greatsword, and Amber Wand bears some resemblance to Emerald Orb.

Unused Norse Sword#

A sword in the assets internally named "Norse". It bears some resemblence to Traveler's Handy Sword. It would be removed from the files after CBT2, and it is unknown if this sword will ever see release.

Early Weapon Names#

Weapons who had different names in CBT1 compared to release.
