Genshin Impact 5.0: New Banner Mechanics Make Pulling Limited Characters Easier!

Get ready to level up your Genshin Impact characters with a big update in Genshin Impact 5.0 update. This version promises new ways to pull limited-time characters and even better odds! If you want to know how to get those unique Genshin Impact characters, you're in luck!

What are Limited Character Banners?

In Genshin Impact, Genshin Impact banners offer a chance to pull those amazing and unique Genshin Impact characters! There are two main categories of banners:

Standard Banner: This always provides an opportunity to get Genshin Impact characters that are permanently available!
Limited Character Banner: This rotates every few weeks, and they give players a chance to add a featured character to their team, but these are limited-time characters that will vanish! They give a special opportunity to get specific and desired characters.

What is The 50/50 Pull?

Whenever you pull Genshin Impact characters using the limited-time banner, you have a 50/50 chance of getting the featured character. A 50% chance is not guaranteed. It is a lottery with two possibilities, giving you a chance at pulling either your favorite or a random 5-star character from the banner.

How Does the "Capturing Radiance" Mechanic Work?

Good news! This new mechanic is designed to boost your odds for limited character chances, or to say it another way, to help you pull the limited character more often.

Whenever you miss your 50/50 pull (a chance to get the featured character), and pull another 5-star character (a 5-star pull), there is a 55% chance to activate "Capturing Radiance", meaning the featured character will be guaranteed on the next pull!

How Do Soft Pity and Hard Pity Factor into Pulling a Featured Character?

Don't give up too quickly. Genshin Impact has "soft pity" and "hard pity"! Even if the mechanic doesn't kick in right away, you'll have the chance to get your desired 5-star character through a series of guaranteed pulls.

Will There Be More Changes With Genshin Impact 5.0?

Yes! Genshin Impact 5.0 has more! Along with Genshin Impact Weapon Banner, a new Artifact-crafting system is coming out as part of the update.

What is The Best Strategy for Pulling a Limited-Time Character?

To avoid getting disappointed, gamers have various strategies! While this new update increases your chances for limited character banners, players need to remember it still is up to chance! To try to boost your odds for a desired character, it might be good to plan out what you would pull. If you plan to try to pull a new Genshin Impact character on release, it's best to prepare ahead of time to avoid disappointment and to increase your chance for success.
