The main way to get characters and weapons in Genshin impact - a gacha system called prayers. In essence, a banner is a set of heroes and weapons, they differ from each other in duration and the key item in it. Intertwining destinies or fateful encounters are used to perform prayers or "twists" - a unique type of in-game currency. You can get it by exchanging source stones (160 stones = 1 prayer).
All banners are divided into two types: permanent and temporary.
Permanent banners in Genshin Impact
There are two permanent banners in the game, both of which use fateful encounters. They can get 3-5⭐️ weapons and 4-5⭐️ non-exclusive characters (which include most of the legendary characters).
Beginner's Prayer
This is a time-limited banner in which you can only make 20 prayers using fateful meetings. It has a unique 20% discount and in general you will have to spend 16 prayers, not 20. When all attempts are used up, access to the banner is closed. There is a nice bonus for the player - for the first 10 prayers he is guaranteed to get ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ character - tank maid Noelle (geo), and has a chance to get a standard ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.
Interesting: the players developed a reroll strategy that allows them to get a legendary character at the start based on this particular banner.
wanderlust
After the player completes his starting banner, one permanent banner remains, on which all the remaining fateful meetings will be spent. The chance of falling out on all items in it is basic, but there are no exclusive ones. The discount doesn't work either.
Current banners in Genshin Impact 4.5
For players, they are much more desirable than the standard ones - almost all ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ characters are exclusive and available only during the duration of their banners (its duration is only 20 days). For them, intertwined destinies are used. A distinctive feature of such banners is the presence of characters or weapons with an increased chance of falling out. Despite this, getting what you want will be more difficult - the set of items includes standard ones, and the first legendary hero will turn out to be an event one with only a 50% chance.
character event prayer
This banner has an increased chance of dropping an exclusive ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ character, as well as 4⭐️, which are presented on the promotional art. In order to get 100% of the main character of the event, no more than 180 intertwined fates will be required.
