While the official release of Genshin Impact 2.4 is getting closer, we are getting more pieces to complete the picture of the upcoming update thanks to new leaks.
miHoYo has announced the full roster for the last two Banners of Genshin Impact 2.4. Here's what we've learned about the Ganyu and Zhong-Li Banners.
Genshin Impact 2.4 Second Phase Banners
Release Dates
The second phase of Genshin Impact 2.4 will have two Character Event Banners that will launch on January 26, 2022.
Characters
- The first banner, Gentry of Hermitage, will feature:
- Zhong-Li - 5-star Geo, Polearm User
- The second banner, Adrift in the Harbor, will feature:
- The re-run of Ganyu - 5-star Cryo, Bow User.
In addition, both Banners will share the following 4-stars characters:
- Xingqiu- 4-star Hydro, Sword User
- Beidou - 4-star Electro, Claymore User
- Yanfei - 4-star Pyro, Catalyst User
This line-up is a bit of a filler in the banners of two trendy 5-stars characters. These 4-star characters do not have much synergy with Ganyu Or Zhong-Li, except for Xinqiu, but he can fit in many team compositions.

Weapon Banner
Besides the full roster for the last banners in Genshin Impact, we also know the weapons for the Second Weapon Banner.
The second weapon banner has one Polearm and Bow as the 5-star feature:
- The 5-star polearm Vortex Vanquisher, the signature weapon of Zhong-Li
- The 5-star bow Amos' Bow, the signature weapon of Ganyu,
The Vortex Vanquisher is a bit underwhelming polearm. Therefore, it is not the best weapon for Zhong-Li. In the case of Amos' Bow, we are talking about the Best in Slot for Ganyu; however, you can save your Primogems and use the craftable Prototype Crescent instead.
Genshin Impact 2.5 will also be packed with fascinating characters, and we need to use our Primogems wisely.
Genshin Impact 2.5 Banners
We are just some days away from the official announcement of the two new characters for Genshin Impact 2.5, but leaks have already given us some expected picks.
These leaked picks spell out bad news for those hoping for Ayato, as the next 5-star character to make her debut will be Yae Miko and the 4-star Kuki Shinobu, Arataki Itto's sidekick, both Electro characters.
Genshin Impact 2.4 was a move to Geo supremacy, and Genshin Impact 2.5 looks to be dominated by the Electro Element, with the imminent re-run of Raiden Shogun and Kujou Sara as well.
Not only that, Inazuma is closing its doors with another chapter of the Archon Story involving Baal, the Electro Archon, who may become the new weekly boss.
A Kazuha re-run is also on the horizon, and with no more Liyue and Mondstadt characters waiting for a second appearance, we can expect the return of Ayaka, Yoimiya, and Kokomi very soon too.
Everyone is rooting for a banner with the Kamisato Siblings, Ayaka, and Ayato. With that, the future looks promising but expensive for those looking to add to their squads.
