The banners coming out during 2.7 are full of incredible additions and fans won't want to miss out. Players wishing to spend their primogems during the first half can find an overview of the first phase of the update here.
Genshin Impact 2.7: Phase One Banners Revealed
The first set of banners coming out during Genshin Impact 2.7 features fantasy characters, including the release of Ye Lan, the long-awaited 5-star archer.
Ye Lan is a 5-star hydro archer who can do a ton of good for his teammates thanks to his crowd control skills and out of the field use of hydro. Players who need hydro support will not want to miss it.
Xiao will also be featured in the first phase of this update for its second replay since its original release.
He is a 5 star spear and anemo user and a primary DPS. Xiao now holds the record for the fastest replay in Genshin history, but given his huge role during the update story, it only makes sense to be featured here.
Players who missed him in the past may want to pick him up during this replay, as he just received a unique set of artifacts that can boost his damage.
The first banner rotation during the update will feature the same group of 4-star units, and they are all pretty useful additions to the team. Yanfei is a 4-star Pyro Catalyst DPS that can also be used as a healer/constellation tank.
Barbara is a 4-star hydro-catalyst healer who can heal a ton with the right build. Noelle is a 4-star Geo Claymore that can deal a lot of damage while protecting and healing his allies. All three of these units are decently valuable and worthy of Xiao.
Weapon banners 2.7
Weapon banner during the first phase Genshin Impact 2.7 will contain two powerful signature weapons that can significantly increase the damage of their owners.
The first weapon is Aqua Simulacra, a bow that is perfect for Ye Lan and provides some insane stats. The second weapon is Primordial Jade Winged Spear, Xiao's signature polearm that provides great buffs to his damage output.
Gamers who plan to summon any of these 5-star characters will want to spend a few extra primogems on their unique weapons, as it can boost their damage by an insane amount of points.
