Summary
- A new Genshin Impact leak reveals event banner details for Version 5.4
- Mizuki, Wriothesley, Sigewinne, and Furina are the 5-Star characters expected to feature in the Version 5.4 banner for Genshin Impact.
- 4-Star characters Mika, Gorou, Sayu, and Chongyun will likely be featured in upcoming event banners.
The latest beta build for Version 5.4 has updated the Event Banners for the upcoming patch in Genshin Impact, providing more insight into which 4-Star characters will join Mizuki, Wriothesley, Sigewinne, and Furina. With Version 5.3 concluding the Archon Quest in Natlan, Version 5.4 will bring players back to Inazuma. Although it won't introduce a new map expansion, the Flagship Event will focus on the yokai of Inazuma, prominently featuring Yae Miko and Ei.
Arguably, the highlight of Version 5.4 is Yumemizuki Mizuki, a new 5-Star Anemo Catalyst from Inazuma. Expected to be a Standard Banner character, Mizuki's Signature Weapon is likely to attract significant interest. Her ability kit can be likened to Sucrose with healing capabilities. While her rotation has been critiqued for being too passive, Mizuki has received consistent buffs throughout the beta testing phase.
Thanks to HomDCCat's datamining efforts, Genshin Impact players can now learn about the majority of 4-Star characters that will be featured in the Event Banners of Version 5.4. In terms of 5-Stars, Wriothesley and Mizuki are expected to appear in the first half, while Sigewinne and Furina will headline the second half. The 4-Star characters of Version 5.4 are projected to include Mika, Gorou, Sayu, and Chongyun. Rumors suggest an Inazuma Chronicled Banner may be introduced in the upcoming patch, but confirmation or debunking is expected during the developer livestream.
Genshin Impact: Banner Characters in Version 5.4
Mizuki – 5-Star Anemo Catalyst
Wriothesley – 5-Star Cryo Catalyst
Sigewinne – 5-Star Hydro Bow
Furina – 5-Star Hydro Sword
Mika – 4-Star Cryo Polearm
Gorou – 4-Star Geo Bow
Sayu – 4-Star Anemo Claymore
Chongyun – 4-Star Cryo Claymore
It should be noted that the 4-Star characters on the list are not ordered. However, if Version 5.4 does include an Inazuma Chronicled Banner, Gorou and Sayu would likely appear in the phase not featuring the Chronicled Banner. Given past patterns, both first and second half placements are possible. Among the lineup, Mika is considered the most valuable, synergizing well with both Furina and Wriothesley.
When speculating about the final two spots on the Event Banners in Version 5.4, many Genshin Impact players have expressed a desire for Charlotte to return. She has been absent from the Event Banners since her debut in Version 4.2 and did not appear during Furina's rerun in Version 4.7. Given Noelle's synergy with both Furina and Gorou, it is likely that the Maid of Favonius will appear in the second half. While there are certainly stronger 4-Star characters in Genshin Impact, this setup provides Sayu, Mika, and Gorou with much-needed reruns on the Event Banners.
