Genshin Impact: Thundering Pulse Ascension Guide

January 24, 2024 by Maddy Cohen

Thundering Pulse is part of the 5-Star Inazuma weapon set. It increases the wielder’s base ATK and provides damage buffs based on specific conditions.

Though it doesn’t fit her color palette, Thundering Pulse is Yoimiya’s signature weapon in Genshin Impact. Overall, this Bow is great for any DPS character due to its CRIT DMG stat. Primarily, it increases the wielder’s ATK and Normal Attack DMG, so Bow characters who rely on infused Normal Attacks will do best with this.

While this is a good Bow for Yoimiya, other characters like Ganyu, Tighnari, Yelan, and Lyney can effectively use Thundering Pulse.


Weapon Skill – Rule by Thunder

At R0, Thundering Pulse increases the wielder’s ATK by 20%. The wielder can also gain a Thunder Emblem in one of three ways: using a Normal Attack that deals Elemental DMG, casting an Elemental Skill, and having less than 100% Energy. The wielder can have a maximum of 3 stacks.

At stacks 1/2/3, Normal Attack DMG increases by 12/24/36%. Depending on how the stack was acquired, each stack may have a different duration. Stacks gained through the Normal Attack method last 5 seconds. Elemental Skill stacks last 10 seconds. Stacks gained through the Energy option last until the wielder’s Energy reaches 100%.

Refinement

Each Refinement level increases the base ATK buff and Normal Attack DMG buffs provided by Thunder Emblem. ATK increases by 5% per Refinement, with Thundering Pulse increasing the wielder’s ATK by up to 40% by R5. Each of the three Thunder Emblem stacks increases by 3/5/10% per Refinement, allowing for a max of 24/48/80% increase to Normal Attack DMG.
