I don't understand. So, the chances of getting Jean in Venti's banner were higher than in Jean's banner?!

Yes, of course. The description of each banner contains information about the percentages.

Venti's banner = Venti himself + five other 5* characters + zero 5* weapons.
0.6% for 5* characters in total, of which 0.3% for Venti and 0.3/5 = 0.06% for each other character, including Jean.

Standard banner = five 5* characters + ten 5* weapons
we get 0.6/15 = 0.04% for Jean

The chance is exactly 1.5 times lower on the standard banner.

In short, I had to pull 60 times for Ning Guang. + 2 Diona, 3 Beidou, and 2 other 4-star weapons. I could pull a few more times for the awakenings, but I don't really want to pull for a 5-star...

Why does the pity timer reset?

Well, you're guaranteed to get a 5-star after every 90 pulls if you haven't gotten one normally, right? And if the progress carries over between banners, then if I get a 5-star now, that progress won't carry over to the next banner, and I'll just be stuck with a Pacamara that I don't need.

Ah, in that sense, yes. The pity counter will reset upon obtaining a 5-star.
Only, in the next banner, the character will unfortunately be the spear-wielding one as well.

Well, I'll skip it too. Actually, what I don't like is that there's no visual indication of how many times you've already rolled or how many more rolls are needed to reach 5.

Yeah. You can just open the history and count how many times you rolled yourself.

I just write down the number of rolls for each banner in a notebook so I don't have to recount later.

Got Ningguang and a four-star sword in the first 10 rolls (although I only had enough resources for about 15 rolls). By the way, there are bonus codes for 50 and 60 Primogems, in case anyone hasn't seen them: GENSHIN1111 GENSHINGIFT
They can be activated here. That's almost a whole roll, lol

>The chance is exactly 1.5 times lower than on the standard banner.
-_-
Okay. One could also thank you for the misleading images, but to be honest, I was drooling over both anyway, as the resources are different. So, never mind.

A person who doesn't read the information about the banner...

I had just started playing and wasn't sure if I would continue. I only start reading and analyzing, looking at percentages, after I've already grasped the core mechanics. In the aforementioned Granblue, I also messed up at the beginning, wasting resources before waiting for the Light Festival. However, nothing terrible happened as a result.

By the way, I also spent some Primogems on the standard banner at the beginning, without thinking about what Medj had written. Now I checked – I made 27 rolls (some of them were for free Primogems that simply can't be used for the event). I got Xiangling and a couple of decent weapons, so I'm not complaining. But most of the Primogems were initially spent on the event: I had a habit from other games – to grab temporary content while it's available (even though I don't really like Klee, but what if I get her).

You get the idea...

Wish, thank you so much for the promo codes, I didn't know about them.

I also spent a bit too much on the classic banner at the beginning, without thinking about what Medj had written.

And I actually didn't really worry about being off by a fraction of a percent.

My logic was this: roll two accounts to the top five and choose the one I like more. Moreover, on the second account, I decided to roll specifically on the standard banner because I wanted to get different characters, and not just the three that were likely to drop from Venti's banner. I wanted to have a choice.

The result is as follows: first account: 11 characters and 3 weapons in 130 rolls. 70 rolls left until the next guaranteed. Tartaglia dropped. second account: 8 characters and 4 weapons in 100 rolls. 30 rolls left until the next guaranteed. Mona dropped.

The second account turned out to be more enjoyable, and I will play on it. Yesterday, I looked through the list of characters and wondered who I actually want to get from the ones I don't have. It turned out to be only Genie. �� Well, I'm unlikely to get her, so I'll just play and wait for new characters to be released.
