Genshin Impact Resin Guide: Costs, Condensed Resin and Double Claims

Original Resin is what Genshin Impact charges to claim rewards at Petrified Trees in Domains and at Ley Line Blossoms, which appear after Ley Line Outcrops and Boss fights. Exploring, quests and chests do not use it, but the materials from those claims gate most character upgrades. Since the “Luna I” update in September 2025 the claim screen gives you more choices than a single 20-Resin claim, and Condensed Resin works differently than most older guides describe. This guide lists what each activity costs, how one full bar of 200 splits, how to claim step by step, and what we would spend it on first. Every cost comes from HoYoverse’s own update notes.

El “Luna I” update notes (September 2025) changed three things at once. Condensed Resin “will now require Original Resin ×60 to craft” and claims rewards up to three times; Condensed Resin left over from before the update still gives triple rewards. On the screen where you spend 20 Original Resin, a new option takes 40 for 2× rewards, and another lets you buy Original Resin with Primogems and claim up to 3×. Fragile Resin and Transient Resin appear as options only once your Condensed Resin count is 0.

Weekly Bosses work on a weekly allowance: Version 1.5 introduced three opportunities every week to halve the Original Resin cost at Trounce Domains and the Dominator of Wolves challenge. The notes give the discount, not the full price, so check the number on the Trounce Blossom before you claim. Normal Bosses that take 40 Original Resin respawn in place right after you claim since 5.3, without the old teleport-and-wait.

A full bar is ten 20-Resin claims, five 40-Resin double claims, or three Condensed Resin (180) plus one 20-Resin claim. All three end at ten sets of Domain or Ley Line rewards: the newer options cut the number of runs, not the Resin. Spent on Normal Bosses, the same bar is five claims.

Spent Original Resin comes back on its own: the game’s own description says it “will gradually regenerate back to its limit over time, or can be immediately replenished by spending Primogems.” What HoYoverse’s update notes confirm about refilling:

• Timer: the time until a full bar is shown on the Map and in the Adventurer Handbook; Version 5.2 added it for Controller Mode too.
• Primogems: the replenish window buys Original Resin with Primogems up to a set number of times; Version 2.5 greys the button out once you reach that maximum.
• Transient Resin: restores 60 Original Resin and expires some time after you get it (Version 1.5).
• Fragile Resin: used from the same replenish screen, which shows how many you own (Version 1.4).

Not in any HoYoverse note we found (all 2,188 posts in the official news feed, read 1 October 2026) or in HoYoWiki: the per-minute regeneration rate, so how much Resin a day brings and how long 0 to 200 takes, and the full Weekly Boss price before the half-cost discount. Both are shown in the client; we will add them here once checked there.

This order is our approach, not a HoYoverse rule. It follows from which costs are discounted and which rewards are random.

1. Weekly Bosses whose drops you need. Three half-cost claims a week are the only built-in discount, and an unused one is gone at the reset. The discount does not make a Boss worth it on its own: if none of your characters needs that Boss’s talent materials, the Resin does more in a Domain.
2. Talent books and weapon materials for the character you are building now. These drops are fixed materials with a known target. Our talent priority guide covers which talent earns the Resin first.
3. Normal Bosses for Ascension materials when a level-up is blocked on them, at 40 a claim.
4. Artifact Domains once the character’s levels and talents are set. Substats are random, so this is the open-ended part; our artifact guide explains the stat side.
5. Ley Line Outcrops when Mora or Character EXP is the thing that runs out.

If the Resin is there but the days to spend it are not, our Domain Runs, Derrotas de jefes y Ley Line Outcrop Runs are played by hand on your account and priced per run or per kill; they use your own Resin, so the count per day is limited the same way, and payment is held until you confirm.

“Condensed Resin is a double run”

That was the old rule. Since “Luna I” a Condensed Resin costs 60 Original Resin and claims triple rewards. The double option now lives on the claim screen itself, at 40 Original Resin.

“Double and triple claims give more rewards per Resin”

They do not. 40 for 2× and 60 for 3× keep the same 20-per-reward rate; they save runs and time.

“The claim screen always offers Fragile Resin”

On the 20-Resin claim screen, the Fragile and Transient options appear only once you have no Condensed Resin left. That limits the option on that screen, not the items: both still refill Original Resin from the replenish screen. Transient Resin also expires, so use it before it does.
