Understanding the Wishing System: Your First Step to Great Fortune
Alright guys, let's kick things off with the heart of acquiring new characters and weapons: the Wishing system. This is where most of your Primogems and Acquaint/Intertwined Fates go, and frankly, it's the primary source of that sweet, sweet great fortune we're all chasing. HoYoVerse has implemented a pity system, and understanding it is crucial. For the Character Event Wish banner, you are guaranteed a 4-star item on or before your 10th wish. More importantly, you're guaranteed a 5-star item on or before your 90th wish. This is your safety net, folks! But it gets better. If you happen to pull a 5-star that is not the featured rate-up character, your next 5-star on that same banner will be the featured character. This is called the soft pity or 50/50 system, and it's a massive factor in getting the character you really want. The pity counter carries over between Character Event banners, meaning if you don't get the featured character on one banner and the pity is still active, it will transfer to the next one. This is HUGE! It means you're never truly starting from scratch when a new banner drops. Knowing this allows you to plan your wishes more effectively. For example, if you're at, say, 70 wishes on the current banner and didn't get the featured 5-star, you know you're guaranteed to get it within the next 20 wishes on the next banner if the pity carries over. This is where great fortune starts to feel a little less random and a lot more predictable. Remember, the weapon banner has its own pity system, which is a bit more complex with the Epitomized Path feature, but the core concept of guaranteed pulls still applies. So, before you go spamming wishes like a maniac, take a moment to check your wish history. See where you are on the pity counter. This intel is your great fortune superpower! It allows you to make informed decisions, save your Primogems, and avoid unnecessary spending. Don't just wish blindly; wish with knowledge, and you'll significantly increase your chances of a positive outcome. Understanding the nuances of the pity system is your first major step towards experiencing more great fortune in Genshin Impact.
Maximizing Primogem Income: Fueling Your Great Fortune
Look, we all want those shiny 5-stars and powerful weapons, right? But they don't just fall from the sky (unless it's raining Mora, which, honestly, would be pretty cool). To get that great fortune in Genshin Impact, you need a consistent stream of Primogems. Think of Primogems as the fuel for your wishing engine. The more fuel you have, the more wishes you can make, and the higher your chances of hitting the jackpot. So, how do you maximize your Primogem income? First and foremost, daily commissions. These are your bread and butter, guys. Do them every single day. They are simple, quick, and reward you with 10 Primogems each, plus a bonus 20 after completing the full set with the Adventurers' Guild. That's 60 Primogems a day, easily! Multiply that by 30 days, and you're looking at 1800 Primogems a month just from your dailies. Don't underestimate this! Next up, Resin usage. While Resin doesn't directly give you Primogems, spending it on Ley Line Outcrops (both Anemo/Geo/Electro/Dendro/Hydro/Pyro/Cryo and Mora) gives you a small amount of Primogems upon completion, especially when you use Condensed Resin. More importantly, spending Resin often leads to artifact farming, which is another, albeit more RNG-heavy, path to great fortune. Beyond dailies and Resin, keep an eye on event rewards. HoYoVerse regularly introduces limited-time events, and these are often massive sources of Primogems, Fates, Mora, and even valuable materials. Always participate in events – they're designed to be accessible and rewarding! Don't forget about exploration. As you explore Teyvat, you'll find Oculi (Anemoculus, Geoculus, Electroculus, etc.) that you can offer to Statues of the Seven for Primogems and other goodies. Chests scattered throughout the world also contain Primogems, especially the rarer ones. Archon Quests and Story Quests are also significant Primogem earners. Completing them not only progresses the story but also fills your pockets. Even World Quests can offer a decent chunk. Lastly, consider the Spiral Abyss. Reaching certain floors and clearing them grants Primogems, and it resets bi-weekly, offering a recurring source of income. For those willing to spend a little, the Battle Pass (Gnostic Hymn) offers a substantial amount of Primogems and Fates for completing its tasks. Even the free track gives some! And, of course, there's the monthly reset of the Stardust Exchange in the in-game shop, where you can buy Acquaint Fates and Intertwined Fates for Primogems, though this is generally less efficient than earning Primogems directly. By consistently engaging with all these activities, you build up a solid Primogem stockpile, significantly increasing your opportunities for great fortune when those coveted banners arrive. It's a marathon, not a sprint, but a well-fueled marathon indeed!
Artifact Farming: The Ultimate Test of Great Fortune
Ah, artifacts. The bane of many a Traveler's existence and the ultimate playground for great fortune (or misfortune, depending on your perspective). Getting the right artifact set with the right main stats and good substats can feel like winning the lottery. But fear not, guys, there are ways to navigate this labyrinth and increase your odds. First, let's talk about the domain grind. The best artifacts come from the highest-level domains (level 80+ for artifact farming). You'll want to focus on the domains that drop the sets relevant to your main DPS characters. For example, if you're building a Pyro DPS, the Crimson Witch of Flames domain is your target. If you need a generalist artifact set like Gladiator's Finale or Shimenawa's Reminiscence, you can farm these from bosses or the Strongbox. The Strongbox feature in the crafting bench is actually a godsend. It allows you to convert unwanted 5-star artifacts into new ones from a selection of sets. This is invaluable for trying to complete a specific set or get better substats without endlessly running the same domain. Now, about those substats. This is where great fortune truly comes into play. You want to focus on artifacts that have Crit Rate and Crit DMG as substats, as these are generally the most valuable for damage dealers. ATK% is also highly desirable. Other stats like Energy Recharge or Elemental Mastery can be good depending on the character. When you level up an artifact from level 0 to 20, it gains substats at levels 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20. Each level-up has a chance to roll into one of the existing substats or add a new one if there are fewer than four. This is the RNG element – where your great fortune is tested. A good strategy is to only level up artifacts that start with desirable substats. If an artifact has DEF% or HP% as a starting substat on a piece that needs Crit Rate, it's usually not worth investing heavily in. Focus on pieces that roll into Crit Rate, Crit DMG, or ATK%. Prioritize your farming. Don't try to farm for every character simultaneously. Identify your main DPS characters and focus your Resin and efforts on getting them the best possible gear. Once they are well-equipped, move on to your supports or sub-DPS. Remember, consistency is key. Even if you don't get amazing rolls right away, continuing to farm and using the Strongbox will eventually yield results. Think of every bad artifact roll as a step closer to a good one. It’s a tough grind, but the feeling of finally getting that perfect artifact with triple Crit substats rolling is a kind of great fortune that makes all the effort worthwhile. Embrace the grind, optimize your strategy, and keep those fingers crossed for those coveted rolls!
Smart Spending and Resource Management: Ensuring Your Great Fortune
Alright, let's talk about the elephant in the room: spending money in Genshin Impact. While the game is very F2P friendly, sometimes you just really want that character or weapon, and you're willing to open your wallet a little. This is where smart spending comes in, and it’s a crucial part of ensuring your great fortune. The most efficient way to spend money for Wishes is through the Genesis Crystal packs, especially when you consider the Monthly Bonus which gives you double the Genesis Crystals on your first purchase of each tier. Always wait for that first purchase bonus! When you convert Genesis Crystals to Primogems, this bonus effectively doubles your spending power for the first purchase of each pack. Next, consider the Gnostic Hymn (Battle Pass). For a reasonable price, you get a significant boost in resources, including Intertwined Fates, Primogems, and valuable materials. It's often considered one of the best value purchases in the game if you play regularly. If you are a paying player, don't just buy random Genesis Crystals whenever you feel like it. Save them for when a banner you desperately want appears. Plan ahead! Understand the pity system (which we covered!) and calculate how many Wishes you'll need. If you're close to pity, a small top-up might be all you need to secure your desired character or weapon. It's about being strategic. Beyond spending, resource management is key to sustained great fortune. This ties back to Primogem income. Don't waste your Primogems on the standard banner unless you're a new player who needs a broad roster, or you are specifically hunting for a standard banner 5-star. The Character Event Wish banner and the Weapon Event Wish banner offer rate-ups and limited-time characters/weapons that you often can't get elsewhere. Once you've acquired the characters you want, think about their ascension materials and talent books. Farming these efficiently saves you time and Resin, which can then be reinvested into artifact farming or more wishes. Don't neglect weapon enhancement materials either! A well-enhanced weapon can make a huge difference. Finally, don't forget about Mora. It's surprisingly easy to run out of Mora, especially when leveling characters, weapons, and talents. Make sure you're consistently running the Ley Line Outcrops for Mora or saving your Condensed Resin for them. Smart spending and diligent resource management ensure that when opportunities for great fortune arise, you're prepared to seize them. It’s about making every Primogem, every dollar, and every bit of Resin count towards your ultimate goal.
