In Genshin Impact, invocations are the key to your progress. They will unlock the best characters and equipment for the rest of your adventure. To do this, you will need two resources: Acquaint Fate and Intertwined Fate. Each stone has its own type of invocation.
Acquaint Fates
These are the most common. They allow to pull simple invocations. Also, they will rarely allow you to obtain really interesting items or characters. However, they are necessary for beginner wishes. These were allow you to unlock Noelle for sure a few days ago (this banner isn't available anymore)
Once the beginner wishes are made, there will be only permanent wishes left.
Intertwined Fates
These will be more difficult to obtain and for good reason: they will allow you to access event wishes. Periodically, specific invocations will be available, allowing you to unlock a rare character (or weapon).
Beware: due to their rarity, you will certainly not be able to make a significant number of pulls for each event. It's therefore best to target your needs and use your Fates only if the banner really interests you.
How to get Fates
As in any gacha game, you can spend a lot of money to buy Fates. But as you advance in the adventure, you will get your hands on primogems. Exchange them in store to get the Fate of your choice.
Drop rates
As in all games of the genre, a drop rate for the different rarities is applied. We show you the different drop rates.

Genshin Impact specialties
- Be careful because the pity (having a 4 star or 5 star guaranteed) is reset each time you get one. There are two pity, one for the 4 stars and one for the 5 stars:
- Every 10 wishes made, a 4 * is guaranteed except in the case where you had one before and in this case the pity falls back to 0.
- Every 90 wishes, a 5 * is guaranteed except in the case where you had one before and in this case the pity falls back to 0.
- For limited banners
- The 5 * item guaranteed at the 90th summon has 50% to be the 5 * featured.
- The 4 * item guaranteed at the 10th summon has 50% to be one of the featured 4 *.
- If the 5 * item obtained isn't the featured one, it will be obtained on your next pull guaranteeing a 5 *.
- If the obtained 4 * item isn't one of the featured ones, one of them will be obtained on your next pull guaranteeing a 4 *.
- It's possible to consult the history of your summons on each banner by clicking on the "History" button in the wish menu.
- Each summon gives you an amount of Masterless Starglitter or Masterless Stardust as below:
- 5 star item: Masterless Starglitter x15
- 4 star item: Masterless Starglitter x2
- 3 Star Item: Masterless Stardust x15
