On Friday, March 1, during the special presentation of version 4.5, Hoyoverse announced a new way to get characters in its popular game. This is a new type of ‘banner’ called Gachapón compilation and we are going to tell you how it works so you can use it to get that character from Genshin Impact that they have always wanted.
One of the strongest criticisms that is usually made against this and other ‘gacha’ style games refers to the limited time to obtain the characters. This makes many players feel “forced” to spend money to try to get them before they disappear until who knows when. This new type of banner should help alleviate that, if only a little.
What is gachapón compilation of Genshin Impact?
In this new type of ‘banner’ we can spend Crisscrossed Fate – like in other ‘banners’ to make ‘wishes’ that will give us a random 5★, 4★ or 3★ weapon or person. The difference try to get some characters and weapons from previous exclusive gachapones that haven’t returned to the rotation in at least two months.
Although the gachapon will list numerous 5★ characters and weapons, it will be easier to get exactly the ones we want from those available. Just like in the weapons banners, we can select a ‘path’ with the 5★ character or weapon we want. We have a 50% chance of getting what we choose the first time we get a five-star reward. If the first 5★ character or weapon that we obtain from the gachapon is not the one we select, we have 100% certainty that the next one will be. The type of path we choose will also determine whether the other five-star rewards we receive are weapons or characters.
Just like in traditional gachapones, we are guaranteed at least a reward of 4★ every 10 wishes and one of 5★ every 90 wishes. The compilation gachapon will change with each version of Genshin Impactbut the accumulated wishes will remain from one to another without restarting, but not the destination points: the so-called “fifty-fifty”.
When does the first compilation gachapon arrive? Genshin Impact and what will be your rewards?
The release date of the first compilation gachapon will be the same as version 4.5 of Genshin Impact: on Tuesday, March 12, 2024 at night.
The five-star characters that could appear in this edition of the gachapón they will be Eula, Mona, Albedo, Klee, Diluc y Jean.
The weapons that could come out will be:
- Light swords: Heavenly Sharp Blade y Aquila Favonia
- Mandobles: Emblem of the sea of together, Ode of the Pines, Tombstone of the wolf y heavenly pride
- Catalysts: Lost Prayer to the Sacred Winds y Heavenly scroll
- Bows: Hunter’s Path, heavenly wings
