Genshin Impact 6.1: Primogem Totals, Banners, and What It Means for Your Pulls

With the release of Version 6.1 on 2025-10-22 (UTC+8), Genshin Impact enters a transition phase defined by fewer new characters but significant game mode changes and a clear calculation of available Primogems. Whether you’re aiming for the debut of Nefer or eyeing banner reruns, a precise understanding of rewards is crucial for gacha planning this cycle.

At a Glance

  • Version: 6.1 (“Nod-Krai” Archipelago content continues)
  • Update Goes Live: 2025-10-22, UTC+8
  • New 5★ Character: Nefer (Dendro Catalyst)
  • Banner Reruns: Furina, Arlecchino, Zhongli
  • Total Primogems (F2P): ~9,810 (plus 12 Intertwined, 15 Acquaint Fates)
  • Events: Miliastra Wonderland (UGC mode), Imaginarium Theater, Stygian Onslaught
  • Major Patch Features: UGC mode debut, streamlined event offerings

Banner Schedule & Pull Value

Phase Start/End (UTC+8) Featured Characters
1 2025-10-22 / TBC Nefer (+Aino, Flins in pool)
2 TBC Furina, Arlecchino, Zhongli reruns

Official timings for both phases were not stated in the initial announcement.

Should You Pull? Guidance by Playstyle

  • F2P: With Nefer as the sole new unit, consider skipping to boost savings for patch 6.2—especially if rumors of Jahoda or Durin pan out (Unconfirmed — subject to change).
  • Low Spenders: Welkin Moon and BP buyers can expect an extra 4,460 Primogems, raising your cushion for soft-pity on banners. Weight reruns like Furina and Zhongli—still top-tier for teams and Spiral Abyss.
  • Banner Value: This patch leans rerun-heavy, ideal for those who missed prior headliners. Pity carries over; minimal banner overlap reduces FOMO, but timing your pulls remains key.

Events & Limited Content: What to Expect

Miliastra Wonderland (UGC Mode)

  • What: Launch of User-Generated Content; players can craft custom stages/outfits.
  • Why it matters: The first Genshin-sanctioned UGC system, designed for replayability and extended ‘endgame’ value.
  • Reward Note: Official Primogem rewards for UGC participation were not stated in official materials.

Imaginarium Theater

  • Rewards: 2,000 Primogems via completion.
  • Eligibility: Unlocks for high AR; requires team-building across multiple elements; can’t be repeated within single patch.

Stygian Onslaught

Banner Reruns: Maximizing Value

  • Furina, Arlecchino, Zhongli: All remain S-tier in meta teams—familiarize yourself with current tier lists and recommended supports ahead of their banners.
  • Team Synergies: Strategy hinges on your roster depth (existing 5★/4★ dupe levels). Don’t neglect synergy with patch-limited 4★ units on the banners.

Pre-Patch Checklist: Optimize Before 6.1 Hits

  • Resin Spend: Clear boss and weekly domains—no new region domains in this patch.
  • Materials: Save Dendro stones and books for Nefer (ascension/talents). Check for required specialty drops as official kit is announced.
  • Spiral Abyss: Complete both cycles pre-and post-patch for top Primogem yield.
  • Daily Comms: Log in all 42 days if aiming for the full free Primogem count.

Day-1 Priorities After Update

  • Test Nefer: Try before pulling to assess value for your teams (where demo/event is provided).
  • Claim Maintenance/Code Rewards: Redeem within 24–48 hours; codes expire quickly.
  • Explore Miliastra Wonderland: Early adoption yields unique outfits and materials otherwise time-gated.

Unconfirmed — Subject to Change

  • Durin & Jahoda in 6.2: Currently unverified; several credible sources mention their arrival but no screenshot/release note as of publication.
  • Varka Appearance: Teased in official trailers, presence in 6.1 Archon Quest not confirmed in patch notes. Treat as rumor until included in official channels.

Key Takeaways & What’s Next

Version 6.1 marks a rare light patch in terms of sheer Primogem volume, with one new character, focused rerun banners, and an emphasis on system changes over pure content expansion. F2P and low-spend players should weigh their pulls carefully, as the ability to save for future banners is strongest in cycles like this.
