Hey Travelers!
We’ve just gotten a massive influx of information about the upcoming Genshin Impact banner lineups, and it’s time to dive deep into the details. From 5.6’s shocking reruns to potential 6.X surprises, let’s break down everything you need to know.
5.6 Banner Updates: A Wallet-Draining Surprise
The 5.6 beta has revealed some exciting new characters and unexpected reruns. Here’s the rundown:
New Characters:
- Escoffier (5-Star Cryo Support): A dedicated buff support, particularly designed to enhance future Cryo DPS characters like Skirk. This character is shaping up to be a must-pull for Skirk enthusiasts.
- Epha (4-Star Anemo): A tall male character wielding a gun, adding another male character to the roster.
Rerun Characters:
- Navia
- Keqing
- Raiden Shogun: This is the big surprise! Raiden Shogun’s early rerun is a significant shift from the usual Archon rerun patterns.
4-Star Reruns:
- Lynette
- Iola
This banner lineup is clearly designed to test our Primogem reserves, especially with Raiden Shogun’s unexpected appearance.
5.7: Skirk’s Debut and More Speculations
Looking ahead to 5.7, we anticipate the arrival of highly anticipated characters:
New Characters:
- Skirk (5-Star Cryo DPS): Expected to be an incredibly powerful Cryo DPS, potentially the strongest yet.
- Dalia (4-Star): There’s a strong possibility we’ll see Dalia from Mondstadt, based on official silhouettes and community speculation.
Rerun Speculations:
- Furina (Archon Rerun): Following the Archon rerun pattern, Furina’s rerun seems highly probable.
- Clorinde: After Keqing’s rerun, Clorinde is another likely fontaine rerun.
- Charlotte or Emilie: Depending on the 5.7 rerun, either Charlotte or Emilie could appear.
- Chiori: Chiori also has a chance to appear.
5.8: Reruns and Summer Surprises
5.8 is shaping up to be a rerun-heavy patch, with potential summer event tie-ins.
Rerun Speculations:
- Fontaine Reruns: Characters like Sigewinne, Emilie, or Clorinde, who haven’t had a rerun, are likely candidates.
- Summer Event Character: If there’s a summer event, the featured character will likely receive a rerun.
- Archon or Inazuma Rerun: Following Raiden Shogun’s early rerun, another Archon rerun is possible. Alternatively, Kokomi from Inazuma, who hasn’t appeared in a while, could make a comeback.
- Sumeru rerun: A sumeru character rerun is also possible.
6.X: The Arrival of Durin?
The most exciting news comes from reliable sources indicating that Durin, the shadow dragon, might become a playable character in the 6.X version.
- Durin (Playable Character): This is a significant development, potentially accompanied by a Dragonspine event.
- Wanderer Rerun: If the Dragonspine event occurs, a Wanderer rerun is also speculated.
- Archon Rerun: If the Archon rerun cycle has changed, another Archon character could appear.
