As mentioned, Windtrace is a game of hide and seek between one Hunter and three Rebels. Note that the role of each player is assigned randomly. As a Hunter, your primary goal is to catch all the Rebels within the time limit, while preventing them from fixing the Signaling Devices on the map. Here are some tips for you to win as a Hunter in the Genshin Impact Windtrace event:

1) Choose the appropriate character

Choosing the right character in the Windtrace event is very important. This applies to both Hunter and Rebels. Since you will be running around a lot, it is advised that you pick someone taller like Zhongli and Neuvillette since it will help you run faster and consume less stamina compared to someone shorter like Klee and Qiqi.

2) Choose the best skill combos

As a Hunter, you can use up to three skills while chasing the Rebels. It is recommended that you choose them wisely. For example, you can pick Mysterious Hunch as your first skill (NA), which briefly shows the directions in which all the Rebels are located.

Next, you can select Imprisoning Curse as your third skill (Q). This ability randomly dispels the disguise of one Rebel and imprisons them inside a blue box for 40 seconds. This skill works perfectly with the Mysterious Hunch to locate the restrained Rebel and catch them.

3) Return to Signaling Devices

After capturing a Rebel near a Signaling Device, it is recommended that you return to its location frequently since it is likely that other Rebels will also return to the same device and complete the repair progress. Do not forget to check on other devices since the Rebels need to repair at least four to win the round.

4) Scout better

Scouting the map and checking up on the repair progress of all the Signaling Devices simultaneously from an elevated place is also recommended. Furthermore, you might also spot a Rebel relocating and catch them.

This completes the guide on how to win as a Hunter in the Genshin Impact Windtrace event. You can obtain Windtrace Coins during the event and unlock several in-game items, including Primogem rewards.
