Spiral Abyss Floor 12 Walkthrough

How to Unlock Spiral Abyss

Reach Adventure Rank 20

Before you can enter Spiral Abyss you will need to be AR 20 so it's best to aim for that first. That said, the steps to unlocking the island can be done at any time.

How to Raise Your Adventure Rank

How to Get to Musk Reef

Cape Oath Portal

Order	Explanation
①	Mondstadt: Go to the Cape Oath Teleport Waypoint
②	Defeat the nearby enemies
③	Find the 3 Seelies
Seelie #1	To the west near an Apple tree
Seelie #2	To the west at the top of a cliff
Seelie #3	At the north edge of the cape
④	Ride the wind up and enter the portal
⑤	Arrive at Musk Reef where the entrance lies

To get to Spiral Abyss you will first have to go through the portal in the sky above Cape Oath. Every subsequent time you can teleport directly there.

What is Spiral Abyss?

Repeatable Challenge Domain

Spiral Abyss is similar to a Domain but instead you must clear 3 challenges per Floor. There are 8 floors in total and you can earn various rewards for completing the clear requirements.

Build Your Party Based on Ley Line Disorders

Each floor has a 75% damage buff or debuff Ley Line Disorder so you should prepare your party accordingly.

Character Tier List

Choose Your Benediction of the Abyss

At the beginning of each Chamber you will be able to choose one of 3 buffs. This will persist through the rest of the Chamber so choose wisely.

Restrictions You Should Know About

Things You Can't Do
No Co-Op Cannot use items Cannot change party members mid floor Cannot change weapons or artifacts No character growth related actions allowed

As you can't use items or change up your party mid floor, make sure your party is fully healed and prepared before challenging Spiral Abyss. Also, if you leave the designated area it is an automatic failure so be warned.

No Co-Op

In Spiral Abyss you are unable to challenge Chambers in Co-Op with friends. If you happen to be in Co-Op mode, however, you can still challenge it alone.

Blessing of the Abyssal Moon: Surgestrike Moon

Blessing Effect
When a character deals Lunar-Crystallize DMG to an opponent, a shockwave will be unleashed at the opponent's position, dealing True DMG. This effect can be triggered once every 3s.
Blessing Reset	2026/03/16 04:00 (Server Time)

Spiral Abyss Patch 5.7 Changes

Retry Challenge Button Feature

A new Retry Challenge feature has been added to the Spiral Abyss reset on the Version 5.7 update! Players who have not obtained all the Abyssal Stars after clearing a chamber can choose to retry the previous chamber or move to the next.

New Summary Screen

In Version 5.7, a new summary screen will show the maximum amount of Abyssal Stars you earned after clearing Floor 12 Chamber 3. Furthermore, players can also claim all the rewards from Floor 9 to Floor 12.

Spiral Abyss Patch 5.1 Changes

Skip Floor 9 & 10 Feature

Starting from the Spiral Abyss reset on October 16, 2024 during Version 5.1, players can skip having to complete Floor 9 if they previously full-cleared Floor 11, and can skip Floor 9 and 10 if they full-clear Floor 12.

Despite skipping Floors, they can still claim all previous Floor rewards as if they finished them manually, which saves a lot of time for players just wanting to get into the hardest Floor in the Spiral Abyss.

Genshin Impact 5.1 Release Date and Details

Open Artifact Chests in Bulk

This Quality-of-Life feature lets players open the acquired Artifact Chests from Spiral Abyss rewards in bulk, as opposed to opening each box one at a time, making it a more efficient and convenient system for frequent Abyss players.

Spiral Abyss Patch 1.4 Changes

Check Your Elemental Resonance

You can now check your Elemental Resonance while creating your party before tackling on a floor in Spiral Abyss.

Retry Function Added

You can now restart the chamber on the current floor you are playing on without having to leave the Spiral Abyss Domain. You can do so by pausing during a fight and then press ''Retry''.

Upcoming Abyssal Moon Phases

Upcoming Abyssal Moon Blessings
Phase II: Converging Moon After the character's Charged Attack hits an opponent, the character will receive a 20% Elemental or Physical DMG Bonus, corresponding to the Elemental or Physical DMG type of the Charged Attack, for 5s. This effect can be triggered once every 0.5s. Max 3 stacks. Charged Attack DMG bonuses from different Elemental types or Physical DMG are counted independently. .
