Genshin Impact needs to copy Honkai Star Rail Light Cone banners

Genshin Impression simply celebrated its third anniversary whereas Honkai Star Rail is at present making its approach via its launch 12 months. Clearly, HoYoverse took many classes discovered from the previous to coronary heart when creating the latter, as a result of Star Rail now has yet one more characteristic that Genshin Impression ought to take into account copying. As a substitute of mixing its two restricted five-star Gentle Cones into one banner, Honkai Star Rail permits gamers to drag for one or the opposite — similar to with five-star characters.

Each of those HoYoverse anime games use related gacha banner setups when providing characters, however they differ with regards to weapons and Gentle Cones. Genshin Impact weapons are equal to Honkai Star Rail Gentle Cones in that they each give characters an additional passive capability whereas offering stat boosts.

In every replace, Genshin Impression at present gives each of its five-star weapons on a single banner, which suggests you should get additional fortunate to drag the one you need — it isn’t a real 50/50 state of affairs like with character banners.

Honkai Star Rail model 1.4 is providing two five-star Gentle Cones in the identical replace for the primary time, however every cone has its personal banner, conserving the percentages at 50/50 as an alternative of a 33/33/33 likelihood. It’s a 33% likelihood as a result of you’ll be able to obtain one of many two restricted weapons or a normal five-star weapon, all on one banner.

I can’t even depend the variety of occasions I’ve pulled for a particular weapon in Genshin Impression solely to get a normal banner reward, or a limited-time particular weapon that I’ve no use for.

Star Rail has solved that difficulty instantly on its first attempt, and I hope to see separate weapon banners in Genshin sooner or later. It might doubtless incentivize gamers to drag for weapons extra typically, due to the upper odds and extra particular rewards.

Genshin Impression model 4.1 is underway, which suggests you’ll be able to nonetheless pull for Wriothesley, the top of the Fortress of Meropide.
