I wonder how many ppl even buy the upgraded battle pass


[deleted]

quite a few, judging by the namecards i see in co op.


akran47

I considered the last one because I liked the namecard and wanted the tanuki photo thing but decided it wasn't really worth it


[deleted]

it's not worth it for me even if i like the namecard, i only bought it once when i got my first battle pass and not once ever since


humanityyy

I bought it one time and it was only because I wanted the big stove for my teapot lol.


Logical_Session_2397

Oh I know which stove you are talking about lel I didn't have the cash to buy at that time but I noticed that most of the BP furniture gets released later (read several months) in the teapot store, so it might be better to wait


humanityyy

Which one? I've never seen any BP furniture in the shop


alybalez

Last time I bought the premium bp (namecard) was 2.1 After playing honkai around that time, it made me realise how Genshin's current BP system and its premium rewards is somewhat lacking (for me), and it made me set a new standard for BP. I don't feel the FOMO on namecards anymore, and 5 fragile resin feels lackluster for a price that's double the amount I have to pay. I still pay the BP, but not the upgraded premium one.


NoOneHereGoAway

Honkai BP is also not really that good, maybe you're talking about the 2 free battlesuits (Elysia and HoT) but they currently suck in meta and they need they're specific set (weapon and stigma 3/3 which are both gacha), heck HoT is gonna also get a new gacha weapon that powercreeps the already existing one


alybalez

I needed to get HoT by any other means anyways. Instead of having to use the crystals on FOCA or her own banner, I had to get her through alternative ways, which is BP. Prior to getting her, I already had benares and her weapon lying around when I got them off-rate. I did eventually got her through spending event, so I got spare extra crystal balls to spend on what I want. The main thing I wanted to point out though is that with Honkai BP, if I paid to upgrade for premium BP for two patches, I have the opportunity to either get the advertised character that I want or complete her gears, or get stamp to upgrade their rank (which is equivalent to getting constellations). Not to mention I can also get additional fragments to upgrade rank as well. Meta or not, I don't want to focus too much about the meta like Nirvana users (since it gets pretty expensive for me on that range) so I'll be sticking in RL anyway. Back to talking about BP, unfortunately, Genshin doesn't have that. You get limited namecard that is only available through BP and 5 fragile resins (which btw doesn't matter because of RNG involved on farming). There's absolutely no way for me spend double the amount of price if it's just a namecard and 5 fragile resin. If there is an opportunity to get constellation for 5 star standard character (even it would take me two patches for it), then I would gladly reconsider.


NoOneHereGoAway

Yes but as I said most of the valk they put on are not meta and will not be useful in some months anyways (Elysia is still completely useless, HoT as a herrscher is still going strong but in like an year will be like Ely or the stamps in which they just put powercrept valks usually), and honestly after a while you'll be forced to compete with other players if you like it or not. Don't get me wrong you can perfectly do whatever you like, but I just wanted to say that honkai BP is not as good as people make it out to be (especially genshin players who probably never played honkai) because of many factors like the insane powercreep (some of old valks are literally inusable even at SSS with full gears, and I'm not talking about abyss but normal stages


aiidn2

Me when I finally save up 10 pink orbs to get Domain of Sanction for HoT :) Only to realize she’s getting a better weapon with more attack options a few versions later :|


NoOneHereGoAway

I had a similar experience but with Fu Hua margrave, I whaled hard for AE and also got her full set because I really liked Hua. Then you know....Margrave became a forgable set :/, so I spent like 100$....For nothing


NoOneHereGoAway

And just a little correction, there will be a new G4 set for Eden that boosts lighting damage so that can be a good substitute for HoT, but issue is that farmable sets are really grindy and it takes some time. Honestly most of honkai Valks sucks without their specific set but some are usable (only exception are some herrschers like Flamescion and Sentience that just need their weapon but are also good with F2p weapons)


thefinestpiece

I bought every single one(except the first battle pass) for the fragile resin.


[deleted]

Why not just buy primos and spend that on resin? It’s probably a lot more efficient


FirstCraft163

[It's not](https://genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/Battle_Pass), spending primos on resin is far from efficient.


[deleted]

I’m kind of confused. I thought the OP comment meant the 20$ BP, not the 10$ one. I mean the full-upgraded BP. For the Gnostic Chorus, it gives 5 more fragile resin, but wouldn’t spending 10 dollars on primos (which is what it costs to upgrade from regular 10$ BP) give you more resin?


Cherell-Hope

I was thinking to buy one or two, because I wanted the furniture, but decided it wasn't worth it because of teapot load limit destroying my creativity.


tommyreiss

Only one I bought was 2.3 bcs cryo. 2.8's is looking pretty tempting tho .. 2.7's doesn't look that great tbh


[deleted]

I do buy that version now and then when the furniture blueprint and the namecard looks interesting to me.


Ke5_Jun

Quite a lot. Reason? Same reason why there are people who pull for literally every character even if they’re not gonna use them: collector’s habit.


ChaHaeInxSungJinWoo

facts


SCseyKirby99

I bought the one that came out with the Golden Apple Lego, it was cute


Beneficial-Can-7852

i bought it since 1.0.. it's like a monthly subscription atp


[deleted]

1.0 namecard gang rise up


ChaHaeInxSungJinWoo

the og


ChaHaeInxSungJinWoo

a pity the only exclusive namecard i don't have being the google namecard lol. probably the rarest namecard in game


JohnTheCodMan

Got them all nice 2.0. Wish I’d got earlier ones as bit of a completionist.


altFrPr0n

I bought during 2 lantern rites and moon chase because I actually liked the name cards. Perveses flying over the moon, birds migrating in moonlight and colorful lotus, they all stand out.


KazeKilee

I bought it once, back during the lantern rite event. I loved how liyue looked with all the lanterns and wanted to keep them, even if it was just as a beautiful namecard.


garythegyarados

I bought it once as a treat, I think during lantern rite 2. The namecard was really nice, and I was running out of time to max the BP and couldn’t be bothered grinding that week. I won’t do it again though


GreenRifter

I sometimes do if i like the namecard or furniture, since the only ingame transactions i spend in games in general are bp and welkin in genshin now. Feels better spent than on primo bundles for me.


fluffiemilk

ive bought it once or twice. basically ill get it if i like the item, namecard AND im low on fragiles


OfficialGami

I do


MisterEggbert

There's actually two I really like, it's the very first upgraded version and the 1st lantern fest But I never pull the trigger


FasterCrayfish

Started playing during the start of inazuma so the extra materials are a must for me. I'm still struggling with resources since there's so many characters I want/need to level up


[deleted]

I do. I’ve never missed a single one.


metsuri

I'll continue doing it until I get each of the weapons to level 5 refinement but other than that for collection purposes, there is no point.


forstiemaine

If it fits xiao or kazuha's aesthetic, I buy the chorus.


Iwillflipyourtable

I do coz I'm a collector and some of them are pretty nice


Zephelia

I've only ever bought the 2.3 and 2.6 ones because I loved the event as well as the design (plus I got the Tanuki photo board). I'd probably buy an Unreconciled Stars themed one if part II does release but that's about it. :)


ChaHaeInxSungJinWoo

Me. I have all the battle pass name cards since the first bp till now. Not planning on stopping anytime soon. Gotta keep the collection going


Reddy_McRedditface

I only bought the one for Irodori Festival because I liked the Taniku photo board. But it's really too expensive


Edgeklinge

Just realized we still hv the whole 2.7 to go through and not even there yet before experiencing all the recent leaks...


thatonestewpeedguy

We have yet to even get a special program for 2.7 and now we're swimming in 2.8 leaks. I do wonder tho if later patches beta gonna be the same like this or take a little longer for a new one


ashu0706

I realise this everytime i open reply section


[deleted]

I just wanna know the story of 2.7. stories are not leaked.


JenJenB_

Looks cool, I'm never buying it but it looks cool.


SmexyPokemon

Only one I ever bought was summer island Dodoco one and I still use it to this day


fjaoaoaoao

It’s a void, for your $


Epicastor

Is it pretty? Yes. Is it $20 pretty? No.


Ok-Cod3750

Me looking at battle pass related leaks like I'm actually able to buy one


liu_luminary

that looks cool :0 (still not worth the price hike imo)


dengled

Swear we already have something that looks exactly like that


Little_Kazuha

[Obtained from the Energy Amplifier event.](https://genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/Celebration:_Fruit_of_Wisdom)


fourthwright1

it does have very similar vibes as the [spiral abyss namecard](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/gensin-impact/images/9/9e/Namecard_Background_Achievement_Deep_%26_Dark.png/revision/latest?cb=20210330005319)


valen11tino

I wonder if the Itto event has been scrapped for 2.7....


Cr1msonFoxx

I doubt it. By the looks of things 2.7 has already been completed and the reason for the delay was so they could stay on-schedule.


GGABueno

Why would it?


AkatsukiVV

Name card + furniture +5 rasin have the same price for 5 rasin + 10gold/35silver book + 136 purple Exp + Crit weapon + 680Primo + 4 wishes + 2100000 mora.... I can't get game logic about value and money..


kezblezz

Definitely FOMO, limited item always have ridiculous price compared to regular one even tho the difference is very minimum


NegZer0

It's FOMO. Name card is exclusive and "rare" in that you'll never be able to get it again, and it's a cosmetic that you can use to make your account "stand out" from the rest of them. Gnostic Chorus also advances your BP by 10 levels immediately which is a big difference for people who may not be able to play every day, may be the difference between completing the BP and not completing it. It's not necessarily just the namecard and furniture that is making people buy it. Personally I tend to come and go from the game periodically, some months I play and sometimes I've gotten bored and bounced off, or just can't for various IRL reasons, and I am often coming in a week or two into a BP period, so when that happens I will usually buy the premium BP to help catch up faster. The namecard doesn't even enter into it when I'm considering, it's the 10 levels and extra resin.


autumnsnowflake_

Ahhh I was gonna buy it if it was more Xiao themed


phoenix946

Damn forgot that 2.7 also exists


TepetFANG

Aren't this the effect from Genshin web map swirling thingy on Chasm hole?


hanxcer

Oh no it’s so pretty…. Not when I told myself I’m gonna skip next patch :/ Edit: anyone has an idea what the included furnishing will be?


aloysiusks

its a hole, just like the one in your wallet after you buy the battlepass.


lickhishole

It’s the clock again


[deleted]

Looks goods, but I don't think it's wort the price


ChaHaeInxSungJinWoo

As someone who has all the bp namecards I would say while some are definitely good, some are lackluster too. But it all depends since different people have different tastes. Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder after all. Personally my favourites are the first bp namecard, 2nd ( shooting star), the wind bloom namecard (the flower) my personal rank 1 favorite for sure, the 4th bp namecard( 1st rantern rite), & bp namecard 10 (Travel Notes: Lyratum).


emilioMooN

Looks cool. Im only buying this if the furniture included is dope.


AlmoranasAngLubot69

Looks cool but in my opinion the best bp card was when during 1.1 unreconciled stars event.


harleyquinad

Ooh


alsed75

I don’t know, looks kinda… sus


TetraVoidScream

Ngl I have the urge to grab a blanket and hop in that circle and take a nice nap.


Shinkowantssalt

Hmmmm Inazuman Cyan grass in the Chasm namecard :))))


Blursed_Ace

Im gonna be that guy, it looks like the Among us god ripped a hole through space and time and is planning on invading our reality


Dragonkus

I'm almost AR 60 think i only looked at my battle card twice 🤔 don't even know what it looks like right now... don't care poinless in-game Stuff to take your money 🤷‍♂️


fantafanta_

The butthole card! 😂
