  1. Wait, is it going to be both new characters on phase one for two weeks? What happened to the full patch banner leak?

  2. I’m so happy Shenhe is finally back after almost two years of absence. But why would they put her in the chronicled banner despite the fact she had only two runs from the limited banner? Unless the players have no interest on having Natlan characters.

    • Going to just say what 5+ people said, basically she isn’t popular enough(made enough money.) so they changed the rules.

      • hoyoverse do wat they want wit their banners
        lyney for example isnt popular and he got 3 runs after 1+ year of being released
        shenhe isnt particulary popular, right, but she isnt of the least popular ones eiter
        characters that came out around the same date of her have had a minimum of 4 runs

    • The official statement (from the special program) is that Hoyoverse heard player feedback about both the overly restrictive rules of Chronicled Wish and the frustration of not being able to get Shenhe for so long.

      I suspect she hasn’t rerun in a regular Character Wish because Hoyoverse expects lower profits from her. Between Cryo being largely abandoned for years and Wriothesley not rerunning for about a year, there is probably more noise about her long absence than there are people who will actually pull for her.

  3. Lol Capitano silhouette wasn’t seen anywhere on the live stream. It’s Capitanover. Brace yourself, death flag is coming. ☠️

    • Considering Capitano was rumored to be a physical main DPS, that points to another character being that role.

      I am very confident that Iansan will be the Superconduit support that Genshin Impact desperately needs. There is another Natlan character from the Collective of Plenty, Varesa, that has mentioned in lore (and I have seen speculation that the cow-girl in the silhouette is Varesa).

      If this is true, to me, this points to Varesa being a new 5* physical Main DPS. Iansan would either be a 4* on her banner, or be a 5* running on a concurrent banner (like Mavuika and Citali in 5.3.)

    • Lol. “I’ll do anything for Natlan”. his death flags are pretty obvious, aren’t they?

      Jk aside, dead or alive, I hope he would be still playable. The people demand The Captain. Hoyoverse is planning to shoot themselves on their foot if they don’t make him playable.

  4. TL;DW highlights from Genshin’s latest livestream:

    * Archon Quest V
    * Lantern Rite (Hu Tao and Xiangling are getting skins)
    * Mavuika and Citlali are in banners together in Phase 1, but it’s still not confirmed if the banners will run for the whole patch. This reflects Hoyo’s new banner strategy that they first pulled off in ZZZ.
    * Clorinde and Arlecchino are getting reruns in Phase 2.
    * Chronicled Wish is returning.
    – 5* Characters: Baizhu, Shenhe, Keqing, Ganyu, Xiao, Childe, Qiqi
    – 5* Weapons: Primordial Jade Cutter, Summit Shaper, Unforged, Queller, Xiao Spear, Jadefall’s Splendor, Memory of Dust, Polar Star, Amos Bow
    * Permanent rhythm game event

      • I’m still baffled that shenhe ended up in chronicled. She’s only had two banners? Ever? Like the others had multiple. Childe though I figured would run at the start of shenznya. And well the unforged is a good dumping stick I guess.

        Wonder what the inazuma would be? Probably chirori would end up on it, she doesn’t seem to popular. Although both inazuma and sumeru don’t have that many characters, might just combine both?

        TLDR: Why shenhe on chronicled?

        • Why is it important? Nobody cares. Shenhe is coming home, that is all that matters!

          Hoyo made the rules, Hoyo is free to change them anytime.

        • Shenhe isn’t popular enough for Hoyoverse to give her another normal event re-run banner, so they changed the rules to allow her to appear in the Chronicled Wish Banner.

        • In the live stream they specifically mention that Shenhe didn’t meet the 3 banner requirement. So they chose to remove “that restriction” from Chronicle wish rules.

        • Shenhe is on the Liyue Chronicled Wish because she’s from Liyue, hasn’t been rerun in eons, is somewhat popular, is from Liyue, and they didn’t want to find out what would happen if she wasn’t included.
          Should she have had a rerun earlier? Yes.
          Should they have included her regardless? Also yes.
          They’ve probably been planning to include her in the 5.3 Chronicled Wish for a while. I can’t imagine the resulting resentment and violence were she not included in a Liyue Chronicled Wish after almost 2 years of absence.

  5. I’ve seen people saying Pyro Traveler is comparable to C0 Hutao? Is that actually possible?

    Also, would a team of Childe/Pyro MC/Mavuika/Flex work? I wanna play Lumine and Childe together.

    • that is cope from the depths of the copium mines, the fumes are so concentrated its turned into liquid. Funny enough this concentrated cope is still no where close to no xiloen havers pulling on mav banner expecting her to work well lololollolloolo

    • do you think they’ll ever understand that 6 weeks for the same abyss is way too long? idk you but considering it’s the only decent endgame it’s absurd it lasts so long
      if it was for me, it should change every week (but also, a random spawn would be very intresting and challenging)
      but no, it seems that even stupid thing are too much to be asked
      i really can’t play more than 1 month with the same stuff, especially crap enemies like tulpa which negates a specific elements, or past geo bitch statue where if you put geo you have a huge advantage

      on the other hand we have that shit theater but that’s the worst possibile rng, beucase instead of random enemies you have random charas and you’re forced to build them all
      they really don’t know how to make this game a great one

      • I read from one of the leakers that Hoyo wants to keep us busy with multiple end game shit for a month.

        Week 1: Theater
        Week 2: This new Osu thingy
        Week 3: Abyss
        Week 4: Nothing so far, but to be done yet

        Just because you will get free shit from something else but the Spiral Abyss doesn’t mean it is bad. Overreacting and soy raging, even.

          • “Repertoire of Myriad Melodies”

            It’s a “new” game mode. Remember the 4.6 music event in Inazuma? Yeah, it is permanent now, and you get primos for doing it once a month.

      • Hoyo doesn’t want us to get more freemogems. So any new permeant source of primo pushes back the reset old ones.
        Even though they make millions per banner

  7. I heard rumors (probably from Sauce Kun but I digress) that banner phases are “phasing out” (pun intended) and they’re going to transition into a new banner system that might last for 42 days i.e. an entire patch. I don’t know the sales strategy Hoyo is pulling out on this one so feel free to share thoughts. It might affect other Hoyo games as well (HSR, ZZZ).

    While on the topic of banners:

    5.3 Banners (STC)
    * Mavuika
    * Arlecchino
    * Citlali
    * Clorinde

    * Lan Yan
    * Chevreuse
    * Rosaria
    * Diona
    * Bennett

  8. WELL. The new beta update sure is something. But whatever, what really matters to me is that my girl Lumine got buffed a bit. I’ve built each element Lumine but this time her being a damage dealer isn’t that much of a cope

    • they shouldve make traveler gains a little stats for every quest completed, like when the traveller use the knowledge capsule it increases their base atk by 3, that way it can compensate the dog shit kit the dev intentionally create with high stats.
