Blackcliff Forge - Home of Liyue's Weapons (Genshin Impact Lore)

In Southern Liyue, you can find an area known as the Blackcliff Forge. This place was where quite a few of Liyue's weapons were created, including the Prototype and Blackcliff weapon series. In this video, I go over the lore of these weapons, and also speculate on a potential expansion here.

I just realised that the Yunhan Troupe that Yunjin is leading might be dedicated to both families ancestors.

[@knightmare4808]

the new event 4* bow Cloudforged also provide additional blackcliff forge lore

[@Der_lorg02]

[@b4u4ever26]

hope your channel grows into a massive one and one day you open your own studio
keep going ♥️

[@revyYT]

finished most genshin content like exploration and achievements as not-reading-lore player, so now im trying to learn more lore stuff, im mostly interested in that all that content you miss if you dont read the notes and stuff, less about out there speculation stuff i see a lot in most genshin lore yt

[@lemonjuiceboi1034]

I do not know, how I would even begin to grasp this part of the Genthin lore without your Channel. Great Video as always man!

[@ritikvibhani5557]

I really like your slow talking personality. The fact you only tell the facts and the fact that you give recommendations at the end of your videos that are actually good.

[@ibbobud]

Now I want a black cliff weapon

[@TheJH1015]

if they make the Blackcliff weapon series craftable with a BlackCliff Forge expansion, they could take them out of the Starglitter shop and put in new 4 star weapons. Maybe the same can work for the Royal weapon series when the Dornman Port expansion gets released?

[@robertmelconde8151]

good lore video if the south of liyue will be release we will get more lore/story about this weapons.
I'm speculation a name of a new playable character on han family side(if exist). Her name will be han sushang(genshin counterpart of hsr/hi3 sushang).
Speculation model: medium female
Speculation weapon: sword(keqing is the only medium female sword user in liyue for now)
Speculation element geo or anemo. Possible role off-field dps or support
Rarity 5 star if madame ping or xinqiu brother is not playable. 4 star if madame ping or xingqiu brother will be playable

[@chrismclean104]

Great video. I love hearing about the lore and how it ties into artifacts and weapons.

[@Yoshimitsuzero]

When?!? When will the coast of Southern Liyue be explorable? I've been waiting for 4 years for this!

[@ryderm6724]

I love your videos, so many lores! Can you do the Royal weapon series lore?

[@ziebus904]

What you think about zhongli saying that tunels of forge are runing so deep in the earth that they reaching ruins of some civilizarion...could that be khanriah or something?

[@SiliconOneFour]

Seems likely to be remnants of the Unified Civilization that existed long ago. Maybe close to the City in the Chasm.

[@ziebus904]

@@SiliconOneFour perhaps

[@coconeko7097]

I’m most definitely thinking Blackcliff Forge will be released next Lantern Rite as several npcs and the new Cloudforged bow from the recent event mention it. I would be so cool!

[@eertikrux666]

It’s about time we get to know the channel’s lore. Why is your name SiliconOneFour

[@SiliconOneFour]

Silicon is my favorite element, and it's element number 14, so i wrote out One and Four and put it all together!

[@xChaosFlower]

So that's why the Blackcliff series looks like an uninspiring copy and paste recolor of the Amber series. And here I thought HoYo was being lazy with weapon models.

[@Golden12500]

They were, they just made a lore excuse for it

[@anshnanavati]

​@@Golden12500that's a bit of a bad faith take. Visuals are the one thing they don't skimp on.

[@mickysaif]

is there lore about why the alley series is a copy paste of favge series or is it just lazy design

[@TheCaribbean04]

There is also Royal series and Sacrificial series.

[@xChaosFlower]

@@TheCaribbean04 I've noticed that one. And from what little lore I've read on them, they have no correlation to one another to justify it.

[@azalea3234]

Hui is pronounced something like hway not hwee. Great vid as always.

[@Fokalu]

Han Li???

[@AlexisNess-mn4zw]

Great shoutout to Mondstadt, my fav region hasnt gotten an update since 1.2
