The 4-stars that will be on the Genshin Impact Version 4.2 Phase II banners are Kirara, Shinobu, and Xiangling. As for the 5-star weapons, you’ll be able to get Staff of the Scarlet Sands and Haran Geppaku Futsu. These are the signature weapons for Cyno and Ayato, respectively, and they’re also their best-in-slots.

Cyno is a 5-star Electro Polearm character whose fighting style relies heavily on his Burst. He works very well in a team that focuses on the Hyperbloom or Aggravate Reactions. He debuted in Version 3.1, which came out in September 2022. As for Ayato, he is a 5-star Hydro Sword character who is versatile as either a DPS or a sub-DPS. Like Cyno, the bulk of Ayato’s usage is from his Elemental Burst, but he can also deal decent damage with his Skill. He is also a great character Hydro Reactions. Ayato first appeared as a playable character in Version 2.6, which was back in March 2022.

Genshin Impact is readily available on the PS4, PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices. The Version 4.2 Phase II banners featuring Ayato and Cyno will return to Genshin Impact from November 28, 2023.
