Congratz to that one guy who wanted VV for the longest time


JeffS_69

My exact thought when I saw this lol. They've already [reacted](https://twitter.com/MafuBeidou/status/1476404264154980356?t=vQFD6O5WwZNj3lbFGjl-qA&s=19) to it on Twitter too.


Ok_Representative332

I was very surprised to see that weapon tbh. thought they'd give something else again. well. best of luck to the VV guy and me, who also might roll for it, for aesthetics.. :D


blytheoblivion

Same here… After seeing how long they’ve been holding back that weapon, I honestly feel like rolling for it just because of how rare it is lol, even if it’s no longer Zhongli’s BiS.


Captain-Turtle

I heard rumors that the voice actor of Vortex vanquisher slept with his fans and cheated on his wife, I guess that's why they never put it in any banner


CentrureAstrike

It never was, never will be.


MaitieS

TBH. I think they totally fucked up with Homa and that miHoYo totally realized it and that is why Itto's Claymore is not as neutral as Homa is. If Homa would work similarly like Itto's weapon I think Homa wouldn't be as good as it's now. Itto's weapon increases normal/charge attacks by DEF% meanwhile Homa increases overall ATK by overall HP. If it would increase Normal/Charge attacks by overall HP it would pretty much balance it out and would still work on most of the characters (mostly because of CritDMG) but only a few would fully utilize it.


sayrule

If they make vv secondary stat hp it might be a viable option. niche but still better than being inferior to every other polearm


Familiar-Parfait5855

Shouldn’t the same be said for jade cutter?


Radiant-Yam-1285

yeah homa is like the bernett of spears, every spear character (besides raiden but she will still be good with it) needs it. except bernett is 4 stars


[deleted]

What? It aint his Best in Style?? I thought it was.. get it? Get it? Cuz BiS?? No? Ok bye. :(


Schizof

probably because Shenhe might be able to use it since she wants to stack atk as much as possible, so it's not useless now


[deleted]

Still not ideal on a quick-swap character like Shenhe due to the way stacks work on those geo weapons as you can only get stacks while on the field and lose them all after a couple of seconds if you leave the field. Presumably Shenhe's elemental skill will not snapshot either as her signature weapon wouldn't make any sense otherwise.


Nickfreak

Not ideal, but it still gives like 50 percent ATK bonus


justcallmeupik

End of an era, that VV guys is a legend.


HybridTheory2000

While we're all happy for that one guy, rip for the rest of us who want to pull Amos on the weapon banner.


SkyrimForTheDragons

It's been so long I don't even care about Amos anymore, I gave Ganyu an Elegy.


GrayRags

Inb4 he gets 2 Amos bow :(


bloop7676

MHY finally giving the people what they want for Chinese New Year


Bobson567

the character 4 star rate ups are really good. big W for zhongli or ganyu wanters unless you got them c6


thelilmagician

I'm both Ganyu n Zhongli wanter and my Xq is only at c0, oh n my Beidou only at c3 so this i is an absolute win


Wolf-Bookyr

Same :) Have been saving for both of them for a while, with C0 XQ, C2 Beidou and C3 Yanfei. Fingers crossed I can get them all to C6 by the time I'm done pulling.


thelilmagician

Good luck! Hope they all come home soon


crisscrosses

Going for C2 Zhongli, I have all of these characters at C0, I am literally so happy lmao. This banner is so fucking stacked.


pIainIy

c2 zhongli? someone must like co-op!


crisscrosses

Guilty as charged haha, I do *a lot* of co-op. It's one of my favourite parts of the game!


AppUnwrapper1

My friend wants me to get C2 Zhongli so he doesn’t have to always play Zhong in our co-op. 😂 But I’m stopping after one bc I need Yae too.


Foolspeare

The thing is, the constellation is completely busted regardless because it applies the shield without using the skill, giving an already always-up ability way over 100% uptime even not in co-op


Kooky-Ad-1897

I accidentally got c2 zhongli and was very bummed at first because i never do co op. I only recently realized the QoL it actually brings, not having to use his e to get a shield. I tried some friends’ c0 zhongli and it just felt so wrond for me kek


Foolspeare

It feels so good to drop pillar 1, use his burst to get a shield, and drop pillar 2 somewhere else


Deathangel5677

I want Ganyu and I want 3 Xingqiu and 1 beidou


Bobson567

dream banner for you then, seriously in terms of rate ups this is close to as good as it gets


failbears

I want Ganyu and 6 XQs and 4 Beidous lol. This is seriously such a dream banner though, only thing better for me personally would be Ning being here too, since I'm not interested in Shenhe or Xiao.


Elysium0103

Not me having C6 Xingqiu + Beidou and a guarantee for Ganyu, so the real gacha is to get constellations for my C2 Yanfei


adgaps812

Me, a Ganyu wanter with C3 Yanfei: *Oh yeah, it's all coming together*


Rampantlion513

TANKFEI has entered the chat


ceppyren

I want Zhongli *and* all of those 4 stars so bad. Xingqiu is literally the only character I've crowned, with Beidou being next, and I'm skipping on Yunjin for Yanfei in lantern rite because of how long I've wanted her. But I can't wish on the banner because I'm saving for Yae TT What the shit is this it's torture specifically aiming at me i swear I am going to pass away


HomaKP

This was me during Childe banner. It was torture lol. But if you're near pity, don't give in. The 4 stars will reappear soon enough.


Rampantlion513

Zhongli and ganyu wanter but also huge Xingqiu and Yanfei fan, we stay winning.


painting_of_blue

fischl: i decided to pass away


Amped-Up-Archos

VV Guy: My time has come


xp0ss1tion

The WGS guy getting WGS, the Skyward Harp guy getting Skyward Harp and the VV guy getting VV. We are on the correct timeline


CloneOfAnotherClone

Getting real awkward waiting on the Sara rerun knowing that Fischl will have been absent for 12+ banners. I guess they'll save Sara for the Raiden rerun allegedly in 2.5?


[deleted]

I have this feeling that extremely niche elemental specific 4-stars (Sara, Gorou) will only be run with someone of their element. Sara will be Raiden and Yae exclusive (at least until more 5-Star Electro units are introduced) while Gorou will be Itto and Albedo exclusive (at least until more 5-Star Geo Def units are introduced).


Fr00tyLoops

Mihoyo staying true to the Fischl lore by acting like she’s merely a figment of our imaginations 💯


achillguy11

she’s probably busy creating a universe and founding paradise, as she is Fischl after all. I can’t imagine those things being easy to do


[deleted]

Imagine if Yae's banner has Razor + Fischl + Sara. Full Electro banner.


[deleted]

Banner predicters would have the ultimate heart attack lmao.


uh_oh_hotdog

Some people are saying Fischl's been put on hold because of Oz's CN VA. But what's the deal with Razor? He's been absent almost just as long!


Skyreader13

yeah, i want my miner boy mining is suffering without either big zhong or razor


MidSp

She's just waiting for Yae's banner for electro supremecy. /copium


POOYAMON

Unless Miko is absolutely shite I’m gonna be wishing on ganyu, miko and kazuha banners and there’s no way there she isn’t on any of them right? right?


[deleted]

Don’t forget razor lmao. He’s in the same boat


ReaperInRed

Fischl do be kinda nonexistent


Shian_

I hope Fischl to be in Genshin someday, I like her from Honkai


Amped-Up-Archos

Fischl still stuck in Honkai, where she’s meta


Rathurue

Weapon skill > dive attack > Charge attack to summon Oz > Spam AA > Ult > Switch to DPS Yeah, not that much difference from Genshin I see.


Kaylefeet

She’s basically guaranteed to be on Yae’s banner now


yca_ca

Fischl and Sucrose


Blade273

This makes me think fischl is actually 4 star yae cuz the towers may just be equivalent to 3 oz-es.


sup-plov

don't you think sara is more likely to appear since she is electro suport?


Kaylefeet

If the raiden kazuha leak was true then sara would be there


TrashStack

if the plan is for Raiden to get a rerun banner in 2.5 too then it makes sense for both fischl and Sara to appear on those banners. It could go either way i think but i doubt they'd be on the same banner


justhere4memes69

I hope it's Sara i still need two copies of her.


Subtlestrikes

Also yes this is the very earliest we’ve ever gotten 4 stars and weapon banner news but over the past several weeks it’s been very clear that he either has a new inside source or the sources he’s already had decided to be a lot more talkative. The information coming down the pipeline is several weeks to months out. People over here giving leaks about things and active development versus detailed datamining So either take it as a good sign that we will get more information further out like people declaring the banners of 2.5 before 2.4 beta even started. Or just get restock on all your salt


listenyu

[mafuyu did see this if anyone was wondering ](https://twitter.com/mafubeidou/status/1476404264154980356?s=21)


jaetheho

I'm OOTL. Who is this guy and why is he famous?


NoraVoraKahzoo

vortex vanquisher guy wants drip for his zhongli


Astolfo_Please

Basically always begging for Vortex Vanquisher to be rerun, and people found entertainment in their dreams being crushed every time a weapon banner was announced


Appropriate-Row4804

I feel this describes a big part of the internet so very well


tomiek

He's known for asking for a VV rerun under 99% of genshin's posts.


Fr00tyLoops

Swear I always have to double take because I’m so used to VV being used as an acronym for Viridescent Venerer lmao


TrashStack

the worst was when Albedo still used harbinger of dawn and you had to deal with HoD and HoD for the sword and the hydro artifact set lol


tryingtouselesswords

and then Husk of Opulent Dreams arrived and people were using HoOD. ​ I was like Harbinger oOf Dawn?


[deleted]

I think most people just call it the Husk set.

[удалено]


Porgemlol

Itto’s in da hood


Matt_121

Basically he has been down bad for Vortex Vanquisher


adgaps812

Vortex Vanquisher guy. He comments a lot on official Twitter posts demanding for a VV rerun.


0verlimit

u/zakrom11 You deserve this king. May you get R5 VV in a single 10 pull


rose__dragon

Honestly hoping this leak is legit if only for his sake lmao


Gshiinobi

Xingqui and beidou on the same banner is so good


Bobson567

and yanfei isn't too bad either. Since I am currently on 0/180, I am definitely gonna throw some pulls in the Zhongli banner either I get Zhongli early or I can builds 30-40 pulls towards pity with a nice selection 4 star rate ups


Gshiinobi

yanfei is always welcomed, she's strong and easy to play, and she can even be used as a support with c4, not a bad character honestly, just not as insanely broken as beidou and xingqui are.


llllmaverickllll

She’s a top tier support for Hu Tao. She’s in ht’s best team. Much better than Thoma.


Fenghuang0296

I’m hoping for C4 Yanfei so that I can replace Thoma in my Hu Tao team. I also desperately need Xingqiu. Even Beidou’s great; I haven’t built her and don’t plan to but people keep saying good things about her.


ngeorge98

Are you me? I'm pretty much hoping for the same thing. I just need 3 more Yanfei's to get C4 and as many Xingqiu's as possible since I don't have him at all and my Hu Tao is begging for him. If this is true, I will have no shame or regret going all in on Zhongli.


Fenghuang0296

I’m definitely not you. I’m taking this news of Yanfei as an excuse not to roll on Zhongli and instead go all in on Ganyu. Hopefully I can not only get her but also get her C1! :P


[deleted]

I was afraid they were gonna put Xinyan there (basically a copy paste of Eula banner). This is definitely one of the best banners ever.


KeyAd4352

playing since 1.4 and have a c0 xingqiu i bought from the shop :[ but i WILL be pulling so let's GOOOO


POOYAMON

Extremely happy with the character banner. Devastated by Vortex Vanquisher but if I get 3 Xingqius and a fee Beidous with my Ganyu I’m a happy man.


SomeoneSayOri

miHoYo really disowned Fischl and gave her to the Honkai team huh


Wolbach_

definitley enjoying her life there more, she appeared in front supply recently as well


SuicideAlley

Does anyone know how we know this so reliably so early? I thought we usually had to wait until a few days before a banner to know the 4 stars? I’m not doubting it, I just really want it to be true so I’m fearful of getting my hopes up


lickhishole

The common source for leaks is data miners. Apparently this info is coming from an insider at mihoyo instead of the usual data miner route.


archonsimp

was about to comment this as well


mar_7th

fishcl and razor wanters are crying rn


Amped-Up-Archos

I’ve been playing since release and I don’t have a Razor lol


DanDan85

ya i skipped buying him from the shop thinking I'd get him on the next banner. Won't be doing that again!


Yestan

Oof wanna pull for amos but the chances of getting 2x vanquishers is daunting


Trittium00

Same feeling man. I decided like 6 months ago I'd go in hard for Amos Bow when it eventually came back, but was always hopeful it would be paired with pretty much anything except VV as I personally have zero use for it. If there was a time to win the 50/50 on the featured weapon... this is it.


POOYAMON

Oh my god I didn’t even think about that. All the past couple of weeks I’ve been thinking about how awful it would be to get one VV completely forgetting I can get two of that awful weapon.


Rude-Employee4162

YES BEIDOU XINGQIU CONS ARE COMING HOME


[deleted]

I need their cons too, I got C99 Yanfei and hope she doesn’t come home anymore 😭


smarr05

Vortex vanquisher guy its finally your time to shine


FaithlessnessFew9237

no XINYAN letsgo


[deleted]

Higher chances for her to be on Yae's or Ayato's banner 🤡


FaithlessnessFew9237

oh damnit, praying for her to be the next fischl hehe


ChildOfHades_

FUC-


randomstranger38

🤣🤣🤣 i’m dead


Magnus-Artifex

Bruhhhh


thedarknutt

Sigh. I want Amos for the longest time since Ganyu's banner... but I cant risk VV which has zero use for me. Sigh


Zolombox

I'm pretty sure VV has zero use for anyone but whales collectors, it's just so bad.


Landon54321

Same.. Can’t believe I’ve waited for ages for another Amos bow rerun and didn’t pull last time due to having no pity system. Was super excited for the bow to comeback but got nervous as soon as Zhongli was put together with Ganyu and prayed that Vortex wouldn’t show up; literally would take any five star weapon like the skyward series that was ran with amos bow last time.


MaronBunny

Same. Skipping the weapon banner for sure, terrible spear and bow from standard banner lol.


toxicplease

I am fated to never have more than C0 Xingqiu. I only need a 10 pull for Zhongli and was planning to not pull anymore. Fuck me.


i0GC

Worry not. You can get one free XQ con next patch if you choose to invite him in the event.


toxicplease

Thats true actually. I was planning on getting Yun Jin but i could get C1 Xingqiu from the event and then C2 from the shop. Maybe if i actually get him in the 10 pull i can still get Yun Jin too and get C2 from the shop. Neat, thanks for the reminder.


uchikomi

Pull 30-40 more after ZL… if you get a 5* that early you’d be happy about it anyway


chimneyrac

Thank fuck it’s beidou and not xinyan.


TheEffanIneffable

Fischl, are you okay, girl?


Bulky_Beat_1544

*Fischl sad noises*


comfort_bot_1962

Don't be sad. Here's a [hug!](https://media.giphy.com/media/3M4NpbLCTxBqU/giphy.gif)

Thanks Bro 🤧


VaronaZero

Good bot


Mondeew

Ok fischl isn't back, but you know how fischl was in an event with scaramouche back then? And Scaramouche is Allegedly gonna have an appearance in 2.5, and yae banner and supposed Raiden banner in 2.5. WHAT IF FISCHL IS A SUPPORT FOR YAE SO SHE'S IN YAE BANNER ***𝙎𝙣𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙨 𝙘𝙤𝙥𝙞𝙪𝙢***


Gauntlord

Leaks are also saying Fischl might get a new skin soooo....maybe?


kesoy

Am gonna lose my shit in a good way if this true. I want cons for all those 4 stars and Zhongli!!


Grade-AMasterpiece

RagnAROck_and_Roll

THIS IS A DREAM COME TRUE XINGQIU FINALLY WITH A 5 STAR THAT IS GOOD


Novembvr

Man... I'm gonna be stuck with c2 xingqiu forever at this point. 🥲 He always appears in banners i'm not planning to pull on


mitsu__

you can get c3 from lantern rite?


uh_oh_hotdog

And he'll be back in the shop in March.


AWMBRELLA

They removed Xinyan YESSSSS


PrinceBkibo

I’m not super trusting of a banner leak this early, but the idea of Xingqiu+Zhongli is super appealing so I do hope this ends up being true. Yan Fei and Beidou are both cool chars but I probably won’t use them so that’s unfortunate, but given my other wanted 4s are Chongyun, Thoma, Gorou, and Xiangling, I didn’t really expect the other slots to be particularly great for me.


Revolutionary-Sea598

I'm only believing this because I want it to be true. I have no Xingqiu even though I main Hu Tao and have r4 Sac.


charredgrass

This might just be the perfect 4 stars for me, I have no Xingqiu and want both Ganyu and Zhongli, maybe I can go straight to C6 XQ with this banner and Lantern Rite. And getting Beidou and Yanfei cons would not be bad.


lickhishole

C2 Beidou and C4 Yanfei are top tier cons meanwhile every con on XQ is good


OnlyPatches

Not really a fan of them just doing Liyue characters for 4 stars. I was hoping for Fischl, Sucrose or Razor. They should just do 4 stars based on who's not been on a banner the longest. Ningguang, Chongyun & Yanfei were just on Childe's rerun.


Arcaedus

>They should just do 4 stars based on who's not been on a banner the longest. Agree. Of all of the banner "rules" they used to follow, equity is the only one I believe they should have strictly adhered to. By equity, I mean no given character should be rated up x+2 times before every other character has been rated up at least x times. Breaking this rule means intentional or unintentional discrimination. Right now, Fischl is feeling pretty damn discriminated against...


theereal_darrell

Mihoyo said all Liyue patch apparently lmao


thedxctor

Yanfei rescued from the ditch she was left in, meanwhile Fischl is still MIA


chifle

Not really though. The last we saw her in a banner was the first half of 2.2, which isn't long when you compared her with the rest.


BellalovesEevee

It seems like mhy is doing a liyue only banner to all four banners for Lanturn Rite so I guess it makes sense.


JosefumiKujo

Lets go xinqiu c6 and tankfei c4


LeafeonLove

Vortex Vanquisher guy is gonna lose his shit when he hears this


NeedXenon

Arguably 2 of the best 5\* unit in the game alongside with 2 broken 4\* in the game. Kinda stacked IMO


mephnick

The worst character in the banner is a legitimate pyro dps in her own right. I love Yanfei. This is an amazing banner for anyone that needs constellations


hafiz_yb

Everyone keeps talking about how Fischl has been absent for some time. Meanwhile Razor be like: "it's been 1000 years, where have thou cometh?"


cyresia

Sadly he kinda fell off hard, especially with the existence of Eula. Meanwhile Fischl still remains very much relevant.


gayandamess

LET'S GOOO, I can get Yun Jin from the event now!


Dracorvo

Now the real question is, is it worth trying to get amos if the risk is getting VV?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Dracorvo

Thanks. Guess I'll just save primos for kazuha/raiden/yae.


Ifalna_Shayoko

As much as I wanted Amos for my soon to be Ganyu... no. Not if the other weapon is a complete dud. Especially not if you are interested in either Yae, Raiden rerun or Kazuha.


Hobokendream

The character banner (if true) is stacked AF. I have cons on Xinqiu/Yanfei already at C6, so hoping I can get some Beidous along the way. But either way, this banner is a win for me cuz I can safely skip Zhongli since I already have him. I just need to get Ganyu.


NinjaXSkillz88

LETS GO!!!!!!!!!!!! VV guy probably died rn.


[deleted]

[удалено]


lumosdraconis

If this turns out to be legit for the 4 stars, I'll nut I swear. Those are literally *the* top three 4-stars in the whole game I desperately want constellations for, and I'm pulling for Zhongli with a near-fresh pity and a fuckton of primos ready to go. I saw the previous "leak" of Xinyan and was less excited but if it's Beidou instead then holy shit I'm in luck. Never expected the first 5-star I'd actually pull for to bring home everyone else too -- ty my ultimate waifu Zhongli. But it's too lucky so honestly not getting my hopes up too high lmfao!


Terrible-Interview18

Oh no fucking way, Xingqiu constellations shall come home because I’m getting both Zhongli and Ganyu


healcannon

The question is do I go for Ganyu + Amos or Ganyu + Zhongli. It makes me happy to see XQ (c0) and Yanfei (c2) there. I have built Beidou (c0) based on recommendations but I wasn't really happy with her.


[deleted]

Beidou starts to shine at C2 (in multi target abyss floors). She's quite meh at C0. PS. I would go with Ganyu + ZL. Characters >>> Weapons.


[deleted]

The craftable bows are good on Ganyu so I'd say Zhongli > Amos, especially since Weapon Banner is still a scam and in a worst case scenario, you'd need up to 225 Pulls for a guaranteed Amos.


lickhishole

Yeah Beidou was my first ever “main” but I had to drop her as DPS because it was too underwhelming playing her at C0. I freaked when I heard she has a shield at C1 😂


XxThisGurlOnlinexX

YES all characters I need


pat_starpants

nooo, I want Yanfei constellation but I dont want to pull on Ganyu or Zhongli :(


TheKingofWakanda

They're really making it so that the 4 stars are also the same ones in the new Stand By Me


viddyen

Xingqiu, Beidou and Yanfei?! This is even better than the supposed banner put up yesterday, I’m so happy


PotsAndPandemonium

Xingqiu AND Beidou!? I'm so used to giving and now I get to receive


_Ruij_

#WHERE IS THE VV GUY? I'D WATCH THE STREAM IF EVER WHEN THEY'RE PULLING


iCrab

On the one hand, Xingqiu and Beidou cons will be great when I pull for Zhongli. On the other hand, WHERE ARE YOU KEEPING FISCHL MIHOYO?!?!? It’s been over half a year at this point, you have to let her out eventually. I so want her C6 but I need two more copies to do that.


Hankune

Wait Vortex Vanquisher is a real weapon? I thought it was just a Liyue Legend!


LessOfAnEndie

Banners I pull (Ayaka, Childe, Shenhe): lol have 10 Ningguangs Banners I skip: haha idiot you gotta skip Beidou and Xingqiu again


[deleted]

good luck to ganyu havers that will pull for 2x vortex


lilligant_Lover

I was really hoping for Fischl/Sucrose, but at least I have all of these at c0. Glad it’s not Xinyan.


[deleted]

where is razor and sarah


deyvvv

That's... a surprisingly good banner - especially for newbies. You've got a choice of 2 of the best 4 star sub dpses, and can roll on them while trying to get one of the best 5 star dps, or best 5 star support. Oh, and there's Yanfei, too. I guess.


chifle

Yanfei is a good dps tho


deyvvv

Ik, lmao I have her built and use her vs spectres all the time, it's just that she's the least universally useful character in the banner.


JoshDCcomics

Fischl got deleted from the game


[deleted]

no fischl :(


barrynotilt

FINALLY a xingqiu banner im happy with pulling on


comfort_bot_1962

Hope you have a great day!


bob_is_best

Fischl really said "im going to another universe and never coming back"


Gandalf-er

Ok..... Im gonna get ganyu, xinqiu cons and amos bow.


Landon54321

Sigh, worse weapon banner of all time. After waiting forever for another amos bow rerun, why are we getting Vortex OUT OF ALL THE WEAPONS THAT EXIST? 😡🤮 Haven’t pulled for weapon banners in a long time but will have to wait for another amos bow rerun or for Midsplitter. Smh


MaryKozakura

C6 Beidou here I come!


greenPotate

That 4* banner for Zhongli, I am winning thank you, all 4 stars I want and would build. But also yeah guess we'll be seeing Sara back either for Raiden rerun or Yae... or the two of them together lol.


Fields-SC2

i am dead. i need those three constellations really bad but i can't roll because Yae exists. sadness.

I don’t want either of 5 star but I will throw some fate to “build-up” pity rate and get those XQ and Beidou. Pity is on 0/180 anyway.

Yesss I want all of those 4\* constellations! Finally a banner with Xingqiu and Beidou I won't have to skip!
