Mastering the Chronicled Wish System in Genshin Impact

With Genshin Impact continuously introducing new characters in each version, players were hoping for the release of three banners simultaneously to reduce the waiting time for their desired character. However, instead of launching three banners at once, HoYoverse surprised everyone by introducing a new system called the Chronicled Wish banner in Genshin Impact.

In this article, we will delve into the details of the new Chronicled Wish banner system in Genshin Impact. We will explore the mechanics of the banner, the characters available, and the upcoming plans for this fresh rerun system.

What Is A Chronicled Wish In Genshin Impact?

The Chronicled Wish banner in Genshin Impact combines elements from both the Character Limited banner and Weapon banner. Here’s a brief overview of how the wish system works:

To make a wish on the Chronicled Wish banner, you will need to use Intertwined Fate.

You have the option to select from the characters or weapons featured in the banner.

When you make your second 5-star pull, you will definitely receive the character or weapon you desire. However, during the first 5-star pull, your chances of getting what you want are 50%.

The 100% 5-star drop guarantee occurs after 90 pulls, whether you choose a weapon or character.

If you pick a character for your guaranteed drop, your 50/50 chance loss will be another character. On the other hand, if you choose a weapon, your 50/50 chance loss will be a weapon.

As a mix of Limited Character banner and Weapon banner, here’s how you can expect the Chronicled Wish banner in Genshin Impact to work:

Choose between the available characters or weapons.

Keep wishing until you receive a 5-star drop.

When you make a wish, there is a 50% chance that you will get the 5-star item you selected. If you choose a character, then there is a 50/50 chance that you will receive a character as your reward. On the other hand, if you opt for a weapon, then there is a 50/50 chance that you will receive a weapon.

If you miss out on the 50/50, you will receive a Fate point, just like with the Weapon banner. However, with the Chronicled Wish, you only need two 5-star pulls to guarantee your desired character or weapon, unlike the Weapon banner which requires three. This ensures that your next 5-star pull will be the character or weapon you have selected, with a 100% chance.

Once you obtain the 5-star item you wanted, or if you decide to change your choice, the Fate point will be used up.

Does Chronicled Wish Pity Carry Over In Genshin Impact?

Similar to the Weapon banner in Genshin Impact, the wish count is carried normally, but Fate Point from the Chronicled Wish doesn’t get carried over.

A Demonstration of the Chronicled Wish System

For instance, if you decide to select Eula as your guaranteed 5-star character, you will not receive any 5-star weapons from this banner. After using your Intertwined Fate, you eventually obtain a 5-star character. However, instead of Eula, you receive Klee.

If you lose your 50% chance, you will receive one Fate Point. This allows you to keep pulling until you obtain another 5-star character, ensuring that you will get Eula on your next gold drop.

However, if you decide to stop drawing before the Chronicled Wish banner expires, you will forfeit your Fate Point.

Yes, Chronicled Wish is not a permanent feature in Genshin Impact.

After experiencing the 50% chance of getting Klee and using up all your Primogems in 50 pulls, you will find yourself back at square one when the current Chronicled Wish banner comes to an end and new characters become available. This means that you will once again face the 50/50 odds when aiming for a new 5-star guarantee. Even though you are at the 50th draw, you will only need 40 more pulls to reach the 90th wish guarantee.

Genshin Impact Beginner Banner - Is Chronicled Wish Permanent In Genshin Impact?

In Genshin Impact 4.5, we will see the introduction of the Chronicled Wish for the first time. It is not yet clear whether this new feature will be refreshed with every version update or every 3 weeks like the usual limited banners. What we do know is that the Chronicled Wish will be periodically available, so you can look forward to seeing changes in the character and weapon selections as time goes on.

The character selection for the Chronicled Wish banner is very specific. Only 5-star characters who have been featured in a Character Limited banner at least three times will be included. These characters must also not have been available in any recent Character Limited banner.

Characters who appeared in the Chronicled Wish banner will still appear in future reruns or even other Chronicled Wish.

Editor's P/S:

The Chronicled Wish banner system in Genshin Impact presents a unique and intriguing approach to character and weapon acquisition. While it offers a guaranteed 5-star drop after two pulls, the 50% chance of not getting the desired item can be frustrating. However, the absence of a pity carryover after the banner expires adds an element of urgency and encourages players to make a decision within the given time frame.

Overall, the Chronicled Wish system provides an alternative way to obtain highly sought-after characters and weapons, but it also introduces a level of risk and uncertainty. Players must carefully weigh their options and consider the potential outcomes before committing their resources to this new banner type.
