Understanding Genshin Impact Banners
Genshin Impact offers three main types of banners: Limited Time Characters, Weapons, and Permanent banners. The distinction between the limited-time character and weapon banners may take time to be transparent. Each Genshin Impact version is divided into two stages, each encompassing a weapon banner and two limited-time character banners. The duration of each phase spans 21 days, and a patch cycle lasts for 42 days.
Conclusion
