The Memory of Dust is a five-star catalyst weapon. Focused on improving shield strength and attack bonus, this item can be an incredible catalyst weapon for any character that can wield it.
Offering information on the recent update, Developer miHoYo has since come forward to describe the weapon in more detail. Read on to find out more.
What is the Memory of Dust
“A stone dumbbell containing distant memories.” The developer said. “Its endless transformations reveal the power within.”
Of course, there is no better explanation of a Genshin Impact weapon than a reveal of its stats and benefits as it is ascended.

While the scaling effects of the Memory of Dust are certainly nothing to scoff at, the weapon’s base stats are impressive in their own right. From level 20 to level 90, the weapon’s base ATK ranges from 122 to 608. All in all, this is one weapon that many players are going to be trying to get their hands on for some time. Luckily, it’s not impossible to find.
How to get the Memory of Dust
The Memory of Dust will soon be as rare as it is powerful. Consequently, it is imperative that all interested players take advantage of the item’s current increased drop rate before it declines.
The Memory of Dust can be earned through the new Epitome Invocation event wish that has been added through the recent version 1.1 update. Having started upon the release of the update, this event wish will continue until December 1, 2020. After that, the weapon will become significantly more difficult to obtain.
With stunning effects and impressive base stats, the Memory of Dust will likely always be worth the effort provided you run a catalyst user. If you found this guide helpful, check out our other Genshin Impact guides here on GameSkinny.
