In Genshin Impact’s upcoming Version 5.5, players can look forward to collecting an impressive 12,875 Primogems. This amount translates to 80 Intertwined Wishes, which is just what you need to secure a coveted 5-star character. Players everywhere are gearing up for the update’s big release, slotted for March 26, 2025.
A newly released chart reveals the expected Primogem bounty for this upcoming update. As seasoned players know, managing resources smartly is key in this gacha-style game. Each update only provides so many Primogems, and with limited-time Event Banners, planning becomes crucial. When faced with tough choices between beloved characters, having a strategy can make all the difference.
Natlan, in particular, has dazzled players with its recent tempting banners. Take Version 5.3, for instance, which had fans raving with Mavuika and Citlali, and then excited all over again with Arlecchino and Clorinde. If your savings haven’t taken a hit already, Furina and Wriothesley in Version 5.4 are sure to challenge your Primogem reserves. Luckily, there’s a silver lining with the introduction of a new Natlan expansion in Version 5.4, promising a nice boost in Primogem rewards.
Among the enticing features of Version 5.5, a significant chunk of Primogems, totaling 12,875, awaits free-to-play adventurers. This windfall translates into 80 Intertwined Wishes—enough for a guaranteed 5-star character drop. Adventures in the newly added Great Volcano of Tollan promise about 1,400 Primogems, which is quite the treat. While it remains a mystery what the Flagship Event will entail, current leaks suggest it will be nestled in Natlan.
Here’s a breakdown of where players can net these Primogems in the upcoming release:
– Quests: 330
– Spiral Abyss: 800
– Imaginarium Theater: 1,600
– Achievements: 475
– New Area: 1,400
– Waypoints: 150
– Offering: 600
– Character Trials: 80
– Daily Commissions: 2,520
– Intertwined Fate: 1,600
– Events: 2,360
– Update: 600
– Promotional Codes: 360
– Welkin Moon: 3,780
– Battle Pass: 1,320
Players who engage in the Welkin Moon or invest in the Battle Pass can expect even more Primogems, adding up to 16,655 and 17,975 respectively, along with more Wishes to boost their chances of scoring their favorite characters. Among the highlights, the patch also presents a free Ororon for players, a fantastic addition to any team. The patch duration stretches from March 26 to May 7, giving players ample time to make the most out of these opportunities during the monthly store resets, offering additional draws.
This update is also set to bring a rerun of Natlan’s top-tier Support character: Xilonen. The order of events isn’t fully unveiled yet, but we anticipate banners to include heavy-hitters like Xilonen, Xianyun, Varesa, and the returning Venti. Varesa, noted as a Plunge hypercarry, is poised to shake things up, potentially altering the current meta that features Neuvillette, Arlecchino, and Mavuika. Her forthcoming debut in Version 5.5 is eagerly awaited, and early reviews of her skillset have been overwhelmingly positive. Brace yourselves for the release on March 26, 2025; it’s shaping up to be quite a ride in the world of Genshin Impact.
