What Is A Chronicled Wish In Genshin Impact?

The Chronicled Wish banner serves as a hybrid between the character limited banner and the weapon banner:

• Players can make pulls using Intertwined Fate.
• A choice between an available character or weapon allows for strategic gameplay.
• On the second 5-star drop, a selected item (character or weapon) is guaranteed. The first 5-star drop has a 50% chance to be what you’ve chosen.
• Every 90 pulls guarantees a 5-star drop, regardless of your choice of character or weapon.
• Choosing a character means your 50/50 loss will result in another character, whereas a weapon choice will yield a weapon as a loss.

Does Chronicled Wish Pity Carry Over In Genshin Impact?

Much like the Weapon banner, the wish count in the Chronicled Wish banner is cumulative. However, Fate Points do not carry over once a player changes their selection. Thus, tracking your pity is essential for maximizing your rewards.

Is Chronicled Wish Permanent In Genshin Impact?

Introduced in version 4.5, the Chronicled Wish banner does not appear in every version of the game. Instead, it rolls out intermittently. Characters available in this banner are exclusive to those who have had at least three appearances in previous Character Limited banners but have not been available recently. This ensures that long-awaited favorites, like Shenhe, can still reappear to entice players.
