Genshin Impact 3.0 Banners
Three new playable characters make their debut in Update 3.0: Tighnari, Collei, and Dori.
Phase 1 begins with the Viridescent Vigil banner, which will feature 5 stars Tignari and 4 stars collei – which will benefit from a high sink rate. After the version 3.1 update, Tighnari will be available through the standard wish, Wanderlust Summon.
The following banner is a replay of the Gentry of Hermitage banner, with a 5 star character Zhongli. Over this banner, 4 stars collei will still have its high drop rate boost.
Phase 1 banners will run side by side and available from Wednesday 24 August. At the time of writing, however, we don’t have a confirmed end date for these banners.
In Phase 2, the banners begin with the replay of Adrift in the Harbor, which features a 5-star character Hiring and 4 stars Dori which has a high drop rate boost.
Phase 2 ends with a replay of Drifting Luminescene, which includes 5 stars Sangonomiya Kokomi and 4 stars Dori – which will still have its high drop rate boost.
All the new 4-star and 5-star featured characters you could want in the 3.0 update are:
- Tighnari (Viridescent Vigil Banner – Phase 1): New 5-star character Dendro who uses a bow.
- Collei (Viridescent Vigilant and Gentry of Hermitage Banner – Phase 1): New 4-star Dendro character who uses a bow.
- Dori (Adrift in Harbor and Drifting Luminescene Banner – Phase 1): New 4-star Electro support character who uses a claymore.
- Zhongli (Gentry of Hermitage Banner – Phase 1): Returning 5-star geo character who wields a polearm and is best used in a support role due to his protective abilities.
- Ganyu (Adrift in Harbor Banner – Phase 2): Archer Cryo 5 stars back, and is best used in a primary or secondary role due to its charged attack damage, AOE range, and Cryo application.
As Zhongli has a Banner Repeat during Phase 1, his signature weapon, Vortex Vanquisher, will have an increased drop rate until the Epitome Summon Weapon Banner refreshes for Phase 2. He does not have It’s not yet been announced what the featured weapon for Phase 2 5 Stars will be, but with the return of Ganyu’s Banner, his best weapon, the Bow of Amos, will then likely be featured.
As a reminder, all Phase 1 Banners will be available from Wednesday 24 August and, while we don’t have an end date at this time, they will be replaced by the Phase 2 Banners at some point. Phase 2 will then run until ready for the 3.1 update and a new set of banners.
Two new arcs were also announced for Genshin Impact 3.0, the first being the 5-star Hunter’s Path. Considering this is a 5-star item, it will likely be available through a weapon banner, but exact details have yet to be announced.
The second arc is the 4 star End of the Line. As of this writing, all we know about this bow is that it will look like a marlin and maybe even be made of one…
There is also a new set of forgeable weapons themed around the Sumeru region.
Finally, Genshin Impact 3.0 will introduce new artifact sets – Deepwood Memories and Gilded Dreams. To get these new artifacts, you’ll need to challenge the new Domain of Blessing, Spire of Solitary Enlightment.
