Genshin Impact “Luna VI” Phase II Banners Revealed Featuring Lauma and Nefer With Major Drop Rate Boosts
HoYoverse unveils new Event Wishes, powerful Dendro 5-star characters, and exclusive weapons arriving April 28
HoYoverse has officially released the details for Genshin Impact Version “Luna VI” Phase II Event Wishes, bringing a fresh lineup of high value banners, boosted drop rates, and exclusive characters. Set to begin on April 28, 2026, at 18:00 and run until May 19, 2026, this phase introduces two highly anticipated 5-star Dendro characters, Lauma and Nefer, alongside a wide selection of returning favorites and powerful weapons.
The first banner, “Moonsong of the Groves”, highlights the event-exclusive 5-star character “Evermoon’s Sacrament Song” Lauma (Dendro). Lauma receives a significant drop rate boost, making this a prime opportunity for players looking to strengthen their Dendro based teams. Joining her are boosted 4-star characters Xingqiu (Hydro), Kirara (Dendro), and Jahoda (Anemo), offering strong synergy options for both new and veteran players.
Running alongside is the second banner, “Temptation of the Crimson Sands”, which features “Secret Beneath the Sands” Nefer (Dendro) as another event-exclusive 5-star unit with increased drop rates. Similar to Lauma’s banner, Nefer is supported by the same trio of boosted 4-star characters, ensuring consistent value across both Event Wishes. Players should note that both Lauma and Nefer will not be available in the standard “Wanderlust Invocation” banner, reinforcing their limited time exclusivity.
A major highlight of this phase is the shared pity system between Character Event Wish and Character Event Wish-2, allowing players to strategically plan pulls across both banners without losing progress. Additionally, the Test Run feature will be available, giving players the chance to experience these characters firsthand and earn rewards through trial challenges.
On the weapons side, the “Epitome Invocation” banner introduces powerful new options, including the 5-star catalysts “Nightweaver’s Looking Glass” and “Reliquary of Truth”, both receiving boosted drop rates. These weapons are expected to synergize strongly with catalyst users, particularly those focused on elemental damage and reaction based gameplay. The banner also includes boosted 4-star weapons such as Dawning Frost, Sacrificial Sword, and Favonius Warbow, adding further value for players looking to upgrade their arsenal.
Another standout addition is the “Dewlit Tranquility” Chronicled Wish, which offers a flexible system allowing players to select and chart a course toward specific 5-star characters or weapons. This banner features a wide roster of fan favorites, including Emilie, Clorinde, Sigewinne, Navia, and Lyney, alongside their signature weapons such as Absolution, Verdict, and The First Great Magic.
What makes the Chronicled Wish particularly appealing is its independent pity system, ensuring that progress within this banner does not interfere with other wishes. This creates a strategic opportunity for players to target specific units without affecting their main banner pulls.
Overall, Version “Luna VI” Phase II delivers one of the most content rich banner rotations in recent updates, combining new characters, reruns, exclusive weapons, and flexible pull systems. With strong Dendro representation and valuable support units, this phase is expected to significantly impact team building strategies and the evolving meta.
Players are encouraged to prepare their Primogems and take advantage of this limited time event, as many of these characters and weapons may not return for an extended period.
