Epitome Invocation - Overview & Drop Rate

Should You Roll At Epitome Invocation?

Roll If You Want ★5 Weapon

A 5-star weapon has significantly higher stats than lower rarity weapons so roll this banner if you have enough characters already. However, the priority of weapons is lower than characters in early game, so pull other banners if you don't have characters you want.

Lost Prayers For DPS Catalyst

Roll If You Are Using These Characters
Klee	Ningguang	Yanfei

Lost Prayers increases the CRIT Rate and elemental DMG of your character. It is especially great for Catalyst DPS who does not rely on Supports for DMG for it requires you to stay in-field for a long time.

Skyward Pride For Burst Supports

Roll If You Are Using These Characters
Chongyun	Xinyan

Skyward Pride does not only increase your DPS, its substat is Energy Recharge enabling the player to activate Elemental burst quickly. This is great for Burst DPS/ Supports like Chongyun and Xinyan.

Epitome Invocation - Gacha Rates

Item Probability & Drop Rate

Guaranteed ★5 Weapon With 80 Rolls

Epitome Invocation banner guarantees 5-star weapon at least once per 80 attempts.

The first time you win a 5-star weapon in this event, there is a 75% chance it will be one of the featured weapon. If you didn't win the promotional 5-star weapons on your first 5-star weapon, the next 5-star will be 100% one of the promotional weapon.
