Guarantor in Genshin Impact: how the software works, 100%, 50/50

This guide describes in detail the process of calculating the guarantor for prayers in Genshin impact. Learn how to get the desired weapons and heroes of rarity 5⭐️ from temporary and permanent banners.

Genshin impact - a gacha game in which, using the principle of a capsule machine, you get heroes and high-quality weapons. These are the main types of drops that players can get by saying prayers using special items: Destined Encounters (for permanent banner) and Intertwined fates (for event banners). The key advantage of this system in Genshin Impact is the presence of guaranteed spins that occur at the stage of pronouncing a certain prayer.

Next, we will detail how to recognize the guarantor in Genshin Impact in order to be sure of 100% drop of the necessary weapon or hero.

How the guarantor works in prayers in Genshin Impact

Function guarantor in the prayers of Genshin Impact - this is a kind of insurance against the fact that each subsequent spin will bring the player only consumer goods. Sooner or later, a character or weapon with a rarity of 4-5⭐️ will still appear. Moreover, the guarantor system in Genshin Impact works according to clear rules, which allow you to calculate exactly when a rare hero or item will drop. Next, we will help you understand all the nuances of the calculation.

What prayer is the guarantor in Genshin Impact

According to publicly available information, upon opening banners in Genshin Impact guaranteed weapon drop 5⭐️ happening on the 80th twist, and hero 5⭐️ - on the 90th. This means that the 80th and 90th spin, respectively (8-9 for packs of 10 prayers) will bring the player a valuable item or character, if one has not fallen out before. As soon as the player receives any drop of the highest rarity - the counter is reset to zero.

For characters and weapons, 4⭐️ the guarantor falls on the 10th twist. In fact, in every pack for 10 prayers, there must be at least one drop with a rarity of at least 4⭐️.

These rules are relevant only for temporary banners. In constant prayer with weapons and heroes, only the principles of loss are preserved, but the drop of a particular character or weapon cannot be calculated (full random).

Beginner's Prayer completely disappear from the list of banners immediately after the 20th spin. An entire reroll tactics, within which you can re-create an until the ideal set of heroes falls out for starting prayers.

Character Drop Chance

So, according to the “rule”, the legendary character drops out on the 90th spin. However, in practice, everything can happen much earlier.

A legendary character can be knocked out even on the 1st twist with 0,6% chance. However, it is a mistake to think that with each new prayer, the chance will become higher. In practice, the chance fluctuates in the range of 0,1-0,2% of the starting value, but at the same time, the dynamics of growth cannot be traced according to statistics. Really, the chance of a character falling out in the event banner grows only on the 74th twist and is kept at the level 20% (+/-) until 89 start prayer. This whole interval is called "soft guarantor" (soft pity). Only 90-yu twist can be called "hard guarantor" (hard pity).

For 4⭐️ items, as said earlier, soft pity is the 9th prayer and hard pity is the 10th prayer. If 10⭐️ falls on the 5th spin, then 4⭐️ will be in the next spin, because lega only displaces a hero of lesser rarity, but does not drop instead.

You can see how it all works in practice in prayer simulator (spin) for Genshin Impact.

Weapon drop chances

In the weapons banner, the declared guarantor falls on the 80th twist. However, a huge statistical base indicates that hard pity weapons - 77th spin, because after it no legendary items fell to anyone at 78-80.

Soft guarantor of the weapon banner with an increased chance of dropping legendary items - 63-76 twist.

A similar shift applies to 4⭐️ weapons. It is guaranteed to drop on the 9th spin (instead of the 10th), and an increased chance appears already on the 8th prayer.

Captivating radiance

Starting with version 5.0, event banners have a special mechanic that slightly increases the chance of winning in this particular type of summons.

In a separate guide you will learn more about everything, how does Captivating Radiance work.

How the guarantor works in Character Event Prayer 2 (II)

Along with Update 2.3, Genshin Impact introduces the Character Event Prayer II. This is a temporary character banner that will exist in parallel with the existing one. So, the opening of patch 2.3 is entrusted to two heroes at once - aeole, as well as six characters of rarity ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

Features of using character event banners:

• they have general statistics of twists;
• the guarantor for them is calculated simultaneously (90 spins are made up of prayers said for the first and second banner);
• when activated 50/50 on the first banner, the guarantor works on the second one (and vice versa).

Accordingly, in order to calculate when the player will receive the legendary character, it will be necessary to add up all the prayers of the temporary banners of the event. Otherwise, the principles of the work of the gacha have not changed.

Think of these banners as a whole, knowing that each part can drop a certain quartet of characters with an increased chance.

How does the guarantor work in the Prayer of the Chronicles?

In version 4.5 Genshin Impact introduced Prayer of the Chronicles. This is a separate temporary banner of characters and weapons, in which the event currency Intertwined Fates is valid. You can knock out six 5⭐️ heroes and eleven 5⭐️ equipment from it.

The Prayer of the Chronicles has its own rules and the Path of the Chronicles:

• to rotate the banner, necessary set a course for a character or weapon in the Path of Chronicles;
• if you choose a course towards a hero, then all 5⭐️ items will be heroes, if towards a weapon - weapons;
• 5⭐️ item is guaranteed to drop on 90 twist, 4⭐️ object – on 10;
• The chance of dropping the desired item is 50%. If you receive something other than what the course is worth, you will be issued 1 Fate point. After that, for the next 90 spins 100% the required 5⭐️ item will drop out;
• Fate point dumped if: you get what you want, choose a course for another subject and change the banner;
• the number of completed prayers is counted separately from other banners and preserved in counting for the next Prayer of the Chronicles;
• characters and weapons in the banner don't share on standard and event ones, and drop out randomly within the framework of the rules described above.

Prayer of the Chronicles contains characters who have been re-injured more than three times and have not appeared in the event banner for a long time. Heroes from the prayer can either return to it again or appear in a regular separate banner.

How to find out how much is left before the guarantor

Tracking your guarantor of labor will not be. Enough open prayer history in the banner menu to see when the player last dropped a 5⭐️ hero or weapon. From the next spin, you should count the number of less successful attempts to get a valuable drop.

According to the screenshot from the author's prayer history, it can be seen that after the Eola was knocked out, 10 spins of the event banner were made, i.e. there are 79 attempts left until the potential guarantor, if the hero does not fall out earlier.

For each banner, the countdown works separately. In the menu header "Prayer Stories" you can select the type of banner.

What is a soft guarantee in Genshin Impact

As has been said, soft pity or soft guarantee - This is an increase in the chances of a legendary character or weapon falling out in the corresponding temporary banners. For a character event prayer, it falls on 74-89 spins, and for weapons, it falls on 63-76 spins.

What is the 50/50 Guarantee in Genshin Impact

You can wait a long time for the coveted 80th and 90th spin and prepare for it. But at the same time, the player may also receive another weapon or a 5⭐️ character that is not an event one. This situation is called guarantor 50/50.

50/50 in character banner

The 50/50 guarantee for characters in Genshin Impact actually indicates a 50% chance of dropping an event legendary hero against standard (not shown on the banner, but falling out of it with a certain chance). It works like this:

1. On one of the spins from 1 to 90, the player may get a leg. At this moment the guarantor counter is reset to zero.
2. If the leg is not an event one, it means there was a 50/50 loss and there is a 100% chance of dropping the 5⭐️ character depicted on the temporary banner.
3. The drop of the event leg will occur on any of the 90 spins after the reset has occurred.

For characters 4⭐️ this pattern loses its meaning, because One banner can drop three different heroes of the corresponding rarity.

50/50 in weapon banner

When it comes to the Deity Incarnate weapon banner, you should count on a 75/25 ratio, which means a 75% chance of one of the two event weapons being dropped versus the standard weapon (not shown on the banner, but dropped from it with a certain chance). The guarantor works in prayer with equipment as follows:

1. After any of the spins from 1 to 80, a legendary weapon may drop. At this moment the guarantor is reset to zero.
2. If the leg is not an event one, then there is a 100% chance of dropping one of the two 5⭐️ weapons shown on the temporary banner.
3. The drop of any event leg (if you do not take into the Path of Incarnation) will occur on any of the 90 spins after the reset has occurred.

For weapons 4⭐️ this pattern makes no sense, because One banner can drop five different equipment of the corresponding rarity.

How the weapon guarantor works in Genshin Impact: Path of Incarnation

Since version of Genshin Impact 2.0 The game now has an additional guarantor system for the weapon banner. It allows you to target your prayers to a specific item from the two legendary ones presented in the banner.

With the help of the Way of Incarnation you can pave the way to the desired weapon 5⭐️.

If during the next spin it falls out not the weapon thus chosen, then the player will be awarded 1 Fate point. You can only collect 1 Destiny point in total. Once you have accumulated it, there is a 100% chance the next weapon dropped 5⭐️ will be the target.

The mechanics of accumulating Fate points:

• are reset when the player gets target weapon 5⭐️;
• are not collected if the goal in the "Path of Incarnation" is not selected;
• are reset if the selected weapon is changed or the target is cancelled;
• disappear at the end of the current cycle of the Incarnation of the deity.

If we consider the work "Ways of Incarnation" on the example of the banner presented above, now A player can only get 1 non-target weapon in a row. Wanting to get Celestial Majesty (two-handed sword), 1 point of Destiny will be received for the knocked out Prayer to the Holy Winds (catalyst). The next successful spin, bringing a weapon 5⭐️, will give the claymore. If the two-handed sword drops before accumulating 1 point of Destiny, then it will be reset and the cycle of the guarantor will start over.

Weapon drop chances 4-5⭐️ have not changed with this change.

Why Know the Banner Guarantor in Genshin Impact

Realizing that sooner or later a valuable item will drop out to the player, one can hardly estimate the value of such knowledge as the time of the appearance of the guarantor for the drop in Genshin Impact. However, correct calculations, for example, will allow do not waste extra resources on third-party banners, knowing that in the run-up to the release of a new character, there is the possibility get hero 5⭐️ with a 100% (or just increased) chance.

The guarantor is a transitional phenomenon: if 89 prayers of the current temporary banner have already been wound up, and the 90th will fall on a new set of heroes, the guaranteed drop remains.

If a free-to-play player has limited access to primogem in Genshin Impact, then the correct calculation of the guarantor is a very important component of the game economy.
