At a Glance

• Character: Odette (Cryo, 5-star)
• Banner Name: "Swan's Shadow in Silken Ice"
• Release Date: August 12 (after Version 7.0 update)
• Weapon Type: Not stated in official materials.

Banner Details

The event wish will feature a significant drop-rate boost for Odette. Standard banner rules apply: soft pity at 75 wishes, hard pity at 90, with a 50/50 chance for the featured character. If you lose the 50/50, your next five-star is guaranteed to be Odette. The banner will run for the first phase of Version 7.0, typically three weeks. Exact end date not confirmed.

Should You Pull?

Odette is a Cryo character, and her role in the current meta will depend on her kit, which has not been fully revealed. However, Cryo remains a strong element for Freeze and Melt teams. If you lack a reliable Cryo DPS or support, Odette could be a valuable addition. For F2P and low-spend players, consider your current roster and future banners. If you already have strong Cryo units like Ayaka or Ganyu, you may want to save for other upcoming characters. Keep an eye on official kit reveals before committing.

Teams & Synergies

Without official details, we can only speculate. Cryo characters typically pair well with Hydro for Freeze (e.g., Xingqiu, Kokomi, Furina) or Pyro for Melt (e.g., Bennett, Xiangling). Anemo supports like Kazuha or Venti provide crowd control and resistance shred. Once Odette's abilities are confirmed, we will update with optimal team compositions.

Events & Rewards

No specific events tied to Odette's banner have been announced. Standard Version 7.0 events will provide additional Primogems and resources. Check the official Genshin Impact social media channels for updates.

Conclusion

Odette's arrival in Version 7.0 is a significant addition to the Cryo roster. Her banner "Swan's Shadow in Silken Ice" starts August 12. Stay tuned for official kit details and make your pull decision based on your team needs. For more Genshin Impact news and guides, visit our Genshin Impact hub.
