Without the Archon Quests in Genshin Impact, we wouldn't have much context as to why Teyvat's nations exist the way they do. That's why every new addition to the Archon Questline - the main questline -  in Genshin Impact is well-awaited and precious, mainly because the developers take a while to craft them.

As a result, the Archon Quests are few and far between. Once you've exhausted the available ones, currently, there isn't much Archon-related stuff left to do unless you make a new account and replay them to appreciate them better. So, which of them are worth replaying? Well, here's ten of them, ranked by how interesting they are.

This article contains spoilers for the Archon questlines throughout.

10/10 Venti's New Plan - Prologue: Act II - For a Tomorrow Without Tears

Most of the time in Genshin Impact, the bulk of gameplay doesn't involve sneaking. Hence, quests like "Venti's New Plan" are breath of fresh air. It actually introduced stealth mechanics to the game.

You have to sneak inside the Mondstadt Cathedral in order to steal the bard's lyre. It's fiddly at first but nevertheless a welcome deviation to the formula. Hopefully, the developers try to incorporate more of these mechanics in the overall game.

9/10 Rite of Descension from Chapter I: Act I - Of the Land Amidst Monoliths

Rite of Descension marks your first task upon arriving in Liyue where you must seek out Rex Lapis or the Geo Archon, at Venti's instructions. It was supposed to be simple but then the god, in his dragon form, suddenly dies.

That was an unexpected twist as soon as the start of the Liyue quest chain and it definitely veered off from the usual fantasy narrative. Moreover, the stealth quest that comes afterward is a good complement to the unusual story event.

8/10 Ending Note from Prologue: Act III - Song of the Dragon and Freedom

Ending Note is the final main quest in the Mondstadt region and it takes place after you have officially defeated Stormterror Dvalin. Celebrations were well underway and everyone was feeling festive until the Fatui reared their ugly heads.

To be more specific, it was Signora, who's quite possibly the second most powerful being in Snezhnaya. She effortlessly took Venti's Gnosis, practically rendering him powerless as an Archon. For many, this came as a shock since a lot of us thought Venti was going to die. Plus, their verbal exchange was fierce and amusing.

7/10 The Fond Farewell from Chapter I: Act III - A New Star Approaches

Speaking of Signora taking Gnosis left and right, she was also out to take Rex Lapis.' She was, however, lucky that Rex Lapis, who now goes by Zhongli, was willing to give up his godhood emblem. He could have fought both Signora and Childe for his Gnosis and still won.

In any case, this paints both Signora and the Fatui in a different light. Whereas at the end of the Mondstadt Archon questline, she seemed like the villain, here in the Liyue quest finale, she's merely a prelude of bigger and more ambiguous things in the future. It's quite a revelation.

6/10 The Floating Palace from Chapter I: Act III - A New Star Approaches

You don't often get to see an optimal and clean bird's eye view of the places in Genshin Impact. Apart from Qingyun Peak, another great place for this scenery is Mt. Tianheng and The Floating Palace quest gives you a better reason to climb up.

That's because the quest is all about getting inside Ningguang's Jade Chamber, which is a floating fortress. The place is majestic and getting there involves lots of quest-related puzzles, as well as some lore dumps that story-hungry fans will surely appreciate.

5/10 Dishonorable Trial from Chapter I: Act IV - We Will Be Reunited

Act IV is one of the recently added Archon Quests in the game and it finally progresses the story of the Traveler siblings. More than that, it brings back a recurring character and introduces a new enemy, namely the Abyss Herald.

Apart from those two, a boss character, Boreas, is also involved and was placed in a more vulnerable spot. He became a prisoner of the Abyss Heralds and for a change, you need to save him instead of killing him for some talent upgrade materials.

4/10 Heart of Glaze from Chapter I: Act III - A New Star Approaches

Since Genshin Impact is an anime game, it can't help but include some anime tropes, such as that one quirky close friend that will eventually betray you. That friend was Childe Tartaglia in the Liyue questline. You get to fight him in the Heart of Glaze quest.

He eventually revealed himself to be a psychotic power player who's hellbent on drawing out Rex Lapis for a duel, releasing the god's old enemies as a trap, thus endangering all of Liyue. So, you as the Traveler confront him, tears welling up in your grimaced face and your hand grasping that Prototype Rancour with seething rage.

3/10 A Long Shot from Prologue: Act III - Song of the Dragon and Freedom

Childe's quest-related boss fight might be dramatic and all, but it's not as epic as fighting a dragon in its home turf. A Long Shot is one of the most exhilarating quests in the game as it's all about fighting Stormterror Dvalin.

The fight has two parts, both of which are an adrenaline rush. The first part involves dancing with Dvalin in the skies in a fantasy dogfight. The second is the usual battle with him in his lair, available for replay in the world as a weekly challenge.

2/10 Turning Point from Chapter I: Act III - A New Star Approaches

Dvalin might be awesome but Rex Lapis' old enemies, such as Osial, are more biblical in scale. Hence, fight with this Archon-level creature requires the effort of several Adepti and Vision-users in Liyue, with your help as the Traveler, of course.

Needless to say, the Turning Point quest is still the most mythical battle ever in Genshin Impact. The stakes were monumental and you couldn't have done it yourself, unlike in the Dvalin fight. Heck, even Ningguang had to sacrifice her life's work (the Jade Chamber) to imprison Osial. The whole fight was nothing short of breathtaking.

1/10 A Soul Set Apart from Chapter I: Act IV - We Will Be Reunited

Speaking of even more anime-style betrayals, A Soul Set Apart ups that ante because it officially makes your in-game twin a villain. That's one of the biggest twists the game has on offer and the reveal was climactic as ever.

The quest was also the whole package and had a good balance of difficulty, interactivity, and exposition to be captivating enough. It would probably still be good even if it was just a cutscene of your twin (Aether/Lumine) leaving you behind for the Abyss. It's like Naruto vs. Sasuke all over again.
