HoYoverse recently announced a new banner coming in Genshin Impact 4.5 update called the Chronicled Wish. This new addition will give players more control over acquiring specific 5-star characters and weapons from past limited banners.
Here’s everything you need to know about the new Chronicled Wish banner in upcoming Genshin Impact 4.5.
Release Date
The Chronicled Wish banner will arrive alongside the Genshin Impact 4.5 update on March 13, 2024. This coincides with the regular update schedule, providing eager fans their first opportunity to utilize the banner’s unique mechanics.
How The Chronicled Wish Works
The Chronicled Wish event in Genshin Impact implements a similar pity system to weapon banners. However, there are some key differences:
Players select one 5-star character or weapon as their “Chronicled Path” before wishing.
After 90 wishes, there is a 50% chance to receive the selected item.
If the desired item is not obtained, players receive 1 Fate Point. The next 5-star is guaranteed to be the pre-selected item.
4-star or higher items are guaranteed every 10 wishes.
When chasing a character, 5-star pity will always be a character. Same for weapons.
The 90 wish count carries over between Chronicled Wish banners but Fate Points reset.
This new system enables strategic planning – players can effectively guarantee their most wanted 5-star character or weapon within a maximum of 180 wishes.
