During this time, you can pull for Raiden Shogun and Yoimiya, who are usually unavailable in the game. The 4-stars who have a boosted drop rate are Kujou Sara, Bennett, and Chevreuse. Of these characters, Chevreuse is the only new one, and she’s a 4-star Ousia-aligned Pyro Polearm character. She will greatly benefit from Overload reactions, which you can cause with Electro and Pyro. This is likely why she’s running on Raiden Shogun and Yoimiya’s banners since these two characters are good at causing overload.

Raiden Shogun made her playable debut in Version 2.1, and she’s a 5-star Electro Polearm character who can work as either a main or sub-DPS character. She can work very well as an on-field DPS with her Elemental Burst and apply Electro to enemies with her Elemental Skill. As for Yoimiya, she debuted in Version 2.0 and is a 5-star Pyro Bow character. She is a good on-field DPS character against single targets and can increase her team’s ATK with her Burst.

Genshin Impact is available on the PS4, PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices. The Raiden Shogun and Yoimiya re-run banners will be available in Genshin Impact from January 9 to 30, 2024. Their signature weapons will also be in the gacha for a limited time.
