1st Character Banner for Genshin Impact Version 3.1 Phase II: Twirling Lotus

This banner is the debut drop-rate boost of the event-exclusive 5* character “Dance of Lotuslight” Nilou (hydro/sword). She specializes in a modified version of the Dendro/Hydro Bloom reactions. 

Nilou will be accompanied by the 4* characters “Uncrowned Lord of the Ocean” Beidou (electro/claymore), “Shinning Idol” Barbara (hydro/catalyst), and “Exquisite Delicacy” Xiangling (pyro/polearm) who will also receive a huge drop rate boost. These 4* characters are also permanently available in the Standard Wish – Wanderlust Invocation without any boosted drop rates.

2nd Character Banner for Genshin Impact Version 3.1 Phase II: Secretum Secretorum

This banner is the second rerun of the event-exclusive 5* character “Kreideprinz” Albedo (geo/sword). He debuted in version 1.2 and received his first rerun in 2.3.

The rate-up 4* characters “Uncrowned Lord of the Ocean” Beidou (electro/claymore), “Shinning Idol” Barbara (hydro/catalyst), and “Exquisite Delicacy” Xiangling (pyro/polearm) are also available in this banner alongside the featured 5* Albedo.

Weapon Banner for Genshin Impact 3.1 Version Phase II: Epitome Invocation

This banner features the event-exclusive 5* weapons “Primordial Jade Cutter” (sword) and debuts the “Key of Khaj-Nisut” (sword). “Key of Khaj-Nisut” is the signature best-in-slot weapon for “Dance of Lotuslight” Nilou, meanwhile “Primordial Jade Cutter” is a premier 5* sword suitable for any sword user.

This banner also debuts the event-exclusive 4* weapons “Xiphos’ Moonlight” (sword) and “Wandering Evenstar” (catalyst). These weapons will be accompanied by the 4* weapons “Rainslasher” (claymore), “Dragon’s Bane” (polearm), and “Sacrificial Bow” (bow). All of these weapons will receive a huge drop-rate boost.

“Rainslasher” (claymore), “Dragon’s Bane” (polearm), and “Sacrificial Bow” (bow) will also be permanently available in the Standard Wish – Wanderlust Invocation without any boosted drop rates. 

Final Thoughts

Nilou is a very niche character since she can only be optimally slotted into a Dendro/Hydro-only team. Since this limits her team-building potential, players should think before deciding to pull for her. Hydro as an element is extremely versatile and hydro characters are a staple part of any powerful team.

While Nilou is the exact opposite of the versatility that hydro characters are known for, that does not mean she doesn’t have great potential within her niche. She can be expected to get better with the release of more dendro characters, specifically the Dendro Archon Nahida, who’s debuting in Version 3.2

Despite belonging to the rather inert geo element, Albedo is pretty versatile since he is a great off-field sub-DPS. However, at the current moment, his best team is a mono-geo team with IttoGorou, and Zhongli. He used to be a part of Hu Tao’s best team.

But Yelan is now more favored since she boosts her DMG much better. If players own the event-exclusive reward weapon “Cinnabar Spindle” from version 2.3 and plan to build a mono-geo team with Itto at the center, Albedo is a solid choice. Otherwise, there are much better 5* support/sub-DPS characters to choose from aside from Albedo.
