🎮 Just stumbled upon a wild Genshin Impact rerun chart, and wow—some five-stars haven’t seen daylight in AGES! As someone who’s been grinding since 2023, I’m shook at how HoYoverse keeps skipping fan-favorites. Let’s break down the tea ☕ and see who’s been ghosted the hardest!
The Eternal Waitlist 💔
The Reddit chart by RapidFresh reveals Shenhe holds the crown 👑 for the longest rerun drought—12 updates! Ganyu follows closely at 11 updates since her last banner in Version 3.6. Kokomi? Nine updates MIA. Even archons aren’t safe—Zhongli and Tartaglia haven’t rerun in eight updates. Meanwhile, Hu Tao and Wriothesley fans are coping with seven skipped cycles.
🔥 Top 5 Drought Champions:
-
Shenhe (12 updates)
-
Ganyu (11 updates)
-
Kokomi (9 updates)
-
Tartaglia & Zhongli (8 updates)
-
Hu Tao & Wriothesley (7 updates)
People Also Ask: "Why isn’t the Chronicled Wish fixing this?" Great question! Many hoped this system would cycle old characters faster, but it’s clearly not keeping up. Newer players from 2024 are stuck without meta staples like Shenhe’s cryo support or Ganyu’s charged-shot dominance. 😤
Version 4.8 Reruns: Mixed Reactions
HoYoverse announced Navia, Nilou, and Yelan for 4.8 reruns alongside new Dendro character Emilie. But let’s be real—the community’s side-eyeing this lineup. Reddit threads are flooded with comments like, "Where’s Shenhe?" and "Ganyu mains starving since 2023." Even leaks about Version 5.0 reruns in August offer little hope—most drought queens aren’t on the radar. 💔
Why This Matters 🌟
Long rerun gaps hurt both F2P and whales:
-
New players can’t build optimal teams
-
Veterans miss constellations (C6 Ganyu when?)
-
HYV’s focus on new games (Zenless Zone Zero) feels like neglect
💡 Pro Tip: Save primos! If your main isn’t in 4.8, skip Emilie’s banner. Leaks suggest Fontaine-era characters might dominate 5.0.
Open Question: With Natlan around the corner, should HYV prioritize reruns before introducing 10+ new Pyro characters? Or will your faves stay in rerun jail forever? 😭
