As version 5.0 has not yet been launched, there is currently no dependable information regarding the acquisition of the crafting diagram for this spear. However, it is quite probable that the mechanism will mirror that of Sumeru or Fontaine, where diagrams can be obtained from local fishermen in exchange for specific fish or from a blacksmith in return for gathered curiosities.

Best characters for the Footprint of the Rainbow
Currently, there are only two users of DEF scaling polearms in Genshin Impact: Yun Jin and Kachina. Both characters are capable of maximizing the weapon’s statistics and passive effects. Yun Jin offers a significant Normal Attack DMG bonus that is influenced by her own DEF. In contrast, Kachina’s damage output from her Burst and Elemental Skill is enhanced by her DEF. Since both characters can readily activate the weapon’s passive effects and greatly benefit from the increased DEF, it may be advantageous to consider further refinements of the weapon.

It makes the experience of playing geo spear characters straightforward, without the necessity for specialized game mechanics. The passive is triggered by an elemental skill and no longer demands any extra conditions, providing a damage increase for Kachinas, with Yun Jin offering the most substantial buff.
