Genshin Impact 3.0 First Phase Banners
The first Sumeru banners will feature Tighnari and the fourth rerun of the Geo Archon Zhongli.
We don't know yet the duration of the banners, as the next update will be shortened by one week with Genshin Impact's modified schedule.
These are the two banners of the first half of Genshin Impact 3.0
- Viridescent Vigil will feature Tighnari - a 5-star Dendro Bow Character.
- Gentry of Hermitage will feature the rerun of Zhonglu – a 5-star Dendro Polearm Character.
The following 4-stars characters complete the banner.
The Genshin Impact 3.0 update could be called Bow Impact, as it will be a banner with all bow characters.
Additionally, the new 5-star weapon will be Hunter's Path, a powerful bow, and we are getting another for Free, the 4-star called End of the Line, via fishing.
Do note that Collei will be the free character in the main event of Genshin Impact 3.0, something to keep in mind if you were planning to spend your Primogems to get her.
Weapon Banner
The first Weapon Banner in Genshin Impact 3.0 will be the debut of the 5-star bow, Hunter's Path, the signature weapon for Tighnari.
For the second 5-star in the banner, we will get the Vortez Vanquisher that until today has not been viable in the meta.
