Should You Pull? (F2P, Low-Spend, Optimal Strategy)

EarlyGG Perspective:

  • If you’re chasing meta-defining units or unique seasonal characters, Luna II’s banners may represent the best short-term shot at certain roster upgrades. However, exact details and rate-ups remain unconfirmed.
  • Primogem Management: With back-to-back event banners, F2P and low-spenders should avoid impulsive pulls. Save for clear favorites or reruns of top-tier units.
  • Pity Count: Standard Genshin Impact mechanics apply. Track your 4-star and 5-star pity closely to avoid overextending on banners with unknown long-term value.

Teams & Synergies: Prepping for the New Meta

While official team comps for new characters are not published in the source, the cyclical nature of Genshin banners means every patch holds opportunity for both seasoned and new teams to shine:

  • Synergy Focus: Watch for event-locked unit kits that can revamp classic national/mono-element teams.
  • Alternative Cores: Always invest in flexible, utility-heavy characters—these are rarely power crept by new releases.
  • Rerun Upside: Banners featuring rerun units often bring new weapon pairings, opening up build diversity.

Events: Activity Timeline & Rewards

Version Luna II will include several time-limited events. While exact names, dates, and eligibility were not provided in the official material, prior cycles indicate involvement in:

  • Multi-tiered Tasks: Complete daily and event-specific objectives.
  • Exclusive Rewards: Primogems, materials, weapon components, and seasonal cosmetics.
  • Shop Rotations: Redeem event currency for highly efficient resources.
