Ver 2.4 Zhongli & Ganyu Banners Release Time (NA Server)

Adrift in the Harbor features Ganyu, a 5-star Cryo Bow character.

Gentry of Hermitage features Zhongli, a 5-star Geo Polearm character.

Both Banners will have bigger chances to obtain one of the Following 4-star characters every ten wishes.

  • Beidou, a 4-star Electro Claymore user
  • Yanfei, a 4-star Pyro Catalyst User
  • Xingqiu, a 4-star Hydro Sword User

At the same time, Genshin Impact is releasing the second weapon banner of the ver. 2.4 features the following weapons:

  • Amos' Bow - 5-star Claymore.
    • The weapon is the signature weapon for Ganyu.
    • Great for big numbers. However, it is available in the pool of the standard banner.
  • Vortex Vanquisher - 5-tar Bow.
    • A very under-whelming Polearm, definitely a very niche weapon.
    • It is not even the Bes in Spot polearm for Zhongli.

Ganyu

The last time Ganyu was part of a Genshin Impact was a little over a year ago. The half-human, half-adepti works as a bridge between the human world and the Deity realm.

Ganyu is a Damage and Crowd Control powerhouse, with a full arsenal of Cryo abilities, and is a contender for the best carry in the game.

Zhongli

The vessel of the Geo Archon, Zhongli, is the oldest being alive on Teyvat. Zhong-li's cover in the real world is being a consultant in the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor.

Zhongli's Shield and Defense Shred to every Elemental Reaction has no parallel in Genshin Impact, making the Geo Archon incredible support. As a result, players can use Zhongli in almost every team composition.
