This is a guide to Character Ascension, or going past the max level, in Genshin Impact. Learn how to level up your character, and the bonuses obtained from Ascending.
List of Contents
Ascension is a feature which allows a Character to go past their initial level cap, as well as providing additional bonuses in itself.
When you obtain the same character multiple times from Wish rolls, you will obtain materials needed to unlock a Character's Constellations. These items are unrelated to Ascension, so you will not be able to unlock Constellations through Character Ascension. You'll need to roll a lot of Wishes if you want to open up all of these!

In order to break past the level cap on each character, Ascension is a necessary aspect of play. To proceed through the story, Ascension becomes necessary as enemies grow more powerful, so keep Ascension in mind as you play and collect the listed Ascension Materials for your characters whenever you have the opportunity.
Best Characters to Level Up Early
Each World Level increase means that enemies and bosses become stronger. This makes the game more challenging, requiring you to ascend more characters as you play. Make sure you ascend your characters around 5-10 levels higher than enemies. This makes sure that you can handle most fights with ease.
Not only is Ascension necessary for breaking the level cap, but it also raises the Character's base stats and unlocks a new Talent for them.
Each character has a specific stat that increases at each Ascension Rank past Rank 2. This can include stats like CRIT Rate, CRIT Damage, Elemental Mastery, and different kinds of Damage Bonuses.
