Genshin Impact Version 4.3 brings with it the titular Roses and Muskets major event. Other than a story, the event also brings with it four smaller events. One of these events is the Trick Shots, Tricky Lights combat event. If you're having a hard time with this event, especially since it's ending soon, then don't worry. Here is our guide for Stage 1 of the Trick Shots, Tricky Lights event in Genshin Impact.
Trick Shots, Tricky Lights Stage 1 Event Guide
It's important that the event will end in a few days. Players who still haven't finished the event stages will have to pick up the pace to get the rewards. Once the event ends, any rewards that were not unlocked will no longer be claimable.
For starters, let's talk about the basics of the event. As with most combat events, players must defeat as many enemies as possible before the time limit ends. There are four difficulty levels, with the more difficult ones giving the player higher score multipliers. Players only need to get at least 2,000 points to get the Primogem rewards, with 4,000 points giving the maximum amount of rewards. The levels of the enemies the player will face will depend on the player's Adventurer Level, as well as the difficulty they select.
Additionally, players have access to “Special Lighting”, which are temporary effects that power up the player. These effects charge up in between each wave, so players should make sure to take advantage of the “Special Lighting” whenever it becomes available. Each stage has a different “Special Lighting” effect, so players should build teams to take advantage of said effects. Additionally, players also have access to two Trial Characters, which they can use in their team for the event.

- For 12s after using, unleash a Hydro shockwave centered around your active character every 4s. Opponents hit will be dealt Hydro DMG. All Cryo DMG dealt by party members will be increased by 60%.
Stage 1 Team Composition
Based on the Special Lighting effect, as well as the trial characters, players are likely encouraged to run a Freeze Team, with a focus on dealing Cryo Damage. A possible team composition could look like this:
- Ayaka (Trial) Main DPS
- Barbara (Trial) Healer
- Xingqiu Sub-DPS
- Kaeya Sub-DPS
This is a Free-to-Play friendly team and consists of four-star characters that the player likely already has, as well as the trial characters. The playstyle for this team primarily involves using Ayaka to deal the chunk of damage with her Skill, Cryo Normal Attacks, and Burst. This, partnered with Xingqiu and Kaeya's Burst, as well as Barbara's Skill, should help permanently freeze enemies, or at least freeze them a lot. Make sure to regularly use the skills of the Sub-DPS characters to charge up their ultimate.
Alternatively, a more expensive team composition could look like this:
- Ayaka Main DPS
- Shenhe Support
- Furina Healer/Support
- Yelan Sub-DPS
Yelan's Burst partnered with Ayaka's Cryo-infused Normal Attacks should help in dealing a lot of damage, while also permanently freezing enemies. Shenhe's Elemental Skill will also help in increasing the damage that Ayake deals. You can replace Furina with a different healer or Hydro Support like Kokomi or even XIngqiu. If you will use Furina, though, make sure to keep track of your HP when using her Elemental Skil.
Whatever team you may use, remember to time your huge bursts of damage whenever you use your Special Lighting, as it will increase your Cryo Damage.
