It should be the first thing you see after you log in on a new day (servers consider it a new day at 4 AM). It's not even a "little" pop up, it takes up the entire drat screen.

You also get it right after you buy it. The day you buy it is the "first day". Check your credit card statement. Did the transaction go through? My Visa won't even accept mihoyo as a merchant, and my mastercard makes me enter a 2FA code every time.

I remember that screen on the day I bought it, but I have never seen it again since that first time. When I launch the game all it does it drop me directly into the game where I left off. There’s no screen telling me to tap to claim the gems. And I paid for it through Apple’s in-app purchase so it hasn’t shown up on my credit card yet but I definitely got the 300 not-primogems and IAP works for everything else.

On PS4, I have to make sure I'm completely logged out to see it the next day. Like, menu then square log out not just put console to sleep.

I still get them even if I don't see the screen but I like seeing the screen every day.

Oh poo poo, I wonder if that’s it. I play on my iPad and I don’t think I’ve ever tapped the logout/exit button. I just swipe up to minimize the game and go on my way.

You’ll have them.

If I forget to force close the app on my iPhone before I go to bed I won’t get the pop up but primo will be there. I’ve checked a few times with screen shots and it’s always worked just fine.

If you want to make double sure you need to force close the app when you are done for the day.

If it stays in memory you probably won’t get the pop up.

The double fall damage is Charged Attack > E pointed at ground, then up and launch. The fall damage from the first ground hit will be less than the second one.

Having a Keqing banner for the event seems to back up the idea that they aren't able to keep up with their intended release schedule. It could also mean they want to be more thorough in their testing so they don't have another Zhongli catastrophe. I can only hope we can get some more info about Hutao before Xiao's banner ends or else I might have to take a chance on him.

Keqing makes the most sense to run because 1) She's probably the most popular female 5 star overall and 2) She's and Qiqi are the only liyue launch 5 stars and they're probably saving a Qiqi rate up with Hu Tao.

people have been begging for rate-ups on standard 5*s, just seems like the smart thing to do. especially if 1.1 really was meant to be part of release originally, it would mean that the new character blitz was just them playing catchup rather than the intended rate of new characters.

Hopefully they don't add the rate up to the 5 star limited banner. That would be all kinds of dickish.

I'm figuring that eventually they're going to have something like Honkai's supply dorm system. Where you can use their version of an expedition system (It's more complex than Genshin's since each character has stat allottments that determine what types of missions they can do.) to get tokens that let you buy all sorts of stuff, including a free roll from the supply dorm roll.

Otherwise they'll eventually hit a point where they have so many characters in the non limited banner that you won't even be able to level up your character's or get new ones reliably without risking getting starglitter'd.

So I finally did some rolls on the weapon event banner and got a Skyward Pride on my 20th roll. I suppose it's not worth trying to get an Amos Bow now.

I now have two 5* weapons and I'm not using either of them:


I already have an 85 serpent spine and 90 prototype animus. I stopped raising the Pride when I realized it was going to take me 3 days worth of primogens to get it to 80 then another 2-3 to get it to 90. And it leaves me with 3 claymores and 2 claymore users. I do have a C6 Noelle at L60.

Here are my dudes with Constellations if appropriate, help me figure out how to trickle these down:



The other 5* is Sacred Winds. My catalyst users are already using their supposed BOS gear (Dragon Tales for Barbara and Sacrificial Book Thingie for Sucrose). Is it good enough to be worth boosting my C6 Ning or C3 Klee? I also have C1 L70 Mona as support but I mainly use Xingqui now.

I could see them eventually adding a 2nd rotating banner that features baseline 5*s or event reruns alongside the current event banners. It would be nice for times where you don't want the featured event character or already pulled them but could spring for Venti or Zhongli or something instead.

If they rate up Qiqi, I hope it comes with a buff so I can feel less sad about pulling her twice instead of literally any other non-Diluc.

It's kind of cruel how the weapon banner has two rate-up weapons. Arknights does the same thing.

At least just having a single character on the character banner means you can guarantee it.

That looks like a Skyward Atlas to me and not a lost prayer unless you have another lost prayer hidden away somewhere.

If you're already clearing abyss to a degree that you're satisfied with you can do whatever you want. If it were me, I would level Noelle and put the Pride on her, it's a great weapon for her. Klee is weirder because I'm just naturally resistant to leveling two pyro carries at once so I'd probably put the Atlas on Mona, but if you ever want to use both Mona and Klee you'd put Atlas on Klee and Mappa on Mona.

I also personally prefer Festering on Jean just because I think her E damage is more relevant than Bennett's (this will depend on how you've built each character).

Yeah....Sacred winds is Klee's best weapon since it gives her a massive stack of crit rate, which benefits her teammates due to her her ascension talent.

C3 Klee with sacred winds plus max consellation XQ Bennett Sucrose (or venti) would be absolutely absurd.

I'm being completely serious when I say that would actually be a good thing. The only way to really pull dupes of those 3 is from the Standard banner, and there they are in a giant pool of every other 4* character and a ton of weapons. If you throw them onto a side-banner focused on non-event 5*s and/or reruns then it means mostly F2P players can buff up units they are guaranteed to have around. All three of them actually have some pretty great constellations too.

so far they will never hit this point because none of the characters they add (barring 4*) are in the standard pool. with standard rolls also being just a thing you passively accumulate through AR/ascension/patch and BP cycles, i don't think they'll ever need to do more than have these occasional featured 5* banners like Keqing. with the 4* pool, stuff like the 3:1 character ratio on event banners and the glitter shop mean they probably don't need to worry about 4* pool size either, ignoring that it doesn't seem to be growing particularly fast.

though the lack of Amber/Lisa/Kaeya on banners runs counter to all that, for whatever stupid reason Mihoyo decided people wouldn't want or shouldn't be able to get their cons unless they wait years for luck and glitter shop cycles to align.

Yeah sorry it's a Skyward Atlas. I know, I was getting excited, too! I couldn''t initially get into Klee, I don't know why, found her hard to work on controller and I had Diluc. Maybe I should give her another try.

Jean was using Noblesse but I swapped her to VV, I usually move festering over to her when I'm using her. I'm not sure how to use her I guess. Bennet is support so I really just need the highest weapon base attack.

I don't think she really brings that much to the table that you're missing out by not having her, but she is pretty fun. With the right number of constellations, she's kind of a Pyro alternative to Razor with more support potential.

She can also be run with Razor as a support due to having one of the few direct buffs to Phys DMG.

Razor is extremely selfish, which is great for coop where you only get one character. He's the premiere phys dmg in the game, his playstyle is apply cryo somehow, switch to him and proc Superconduct with E and then press left click as much as possible and his Q lets you left click faster.

Xinyan C4 is nice as a Razor support due to providing phys damage boost, phys defense break, cleansing shields, and getting you half way to the +25% pyro attack bonus.

I think Kaeya is usually better for priming a Razor burst, but not all enemies are vulnerable (Anemo bosses) and some enemies have naturally low physical defense, reducing the benefit of superconduct.
