Genshin Impact banner history calculation: How to find out Pity and Soft-Pity count (March 2022)

Not everything in Genshin Impact is about luck; Travelers can guarantee that they will get a 5-star character by understanding how Pity and Soft-Pity works. Here are some basic terms that gamers should know:

Genshin Impact makes it easy for players to know how close they are to Hard or Soft-Pity, particularly thanks to the Banner History feature. Due to this, players don't need to memorize how many summons they've done thus far.

Note: Soft-Pity and Hard-Pity rates vary based on whether it's a character or weapon banner.

Here is how Travelers can check their banner history in Genshin Impact:

From there, players can also check out their history and calculate their current Pity. Alternatively, they can use a website like Genshin Wishes:

If they choose to use that website, they should know that the method will vary from platform to platform. Otherwise, this article will focus on old-school calculations and how Pity rates work.

Soft-Pity will gradually increase the player's chances of pulling a 5-star, but it's only available after the player makes a specific number of pulls. Based on data from millions of wishes, it would appear as though Soft-Pity begins at the 74th pull for character banners.

The chances of pulling a 5-star character would then rise every time the player fails to pull a 5-star character from that point onward. It eventually reaches the Hard-Pity, which guarantees that the player gets a 5-star character.

For character banners and the standard banner, Hard-Pity is available at the 90th pull. Pity also applies to 4-star characters, although at a far smaller scale.

Weapon banners follow a similar format, except with different numbers. Soft-Pity begins at 63 before eventually escalating to 77, which is the Hard-Pity.
