Genshin Impact Version “Luna VII” Event Wishes Overview (Phase II)

The Version “Luna VII” Event Wishes introduce multiple limited-time banners running from June 9, 2026 (18:00) to June 30, 2026 (14:59). The update features two Character Event Wishes—“Frostedge Nocturne” and “Ancient Flame Ablaze”—along with the Weapon Event Wish “Epitome Invocation.”

Players can expect boosted drop rates for new 5-star characters Lohen (Cryo) and Mavuika (Pyro), alongside returning 4-star characters and a curated weapon pool. At Animon Life, we typically see strong community interest in banners like these because they often influence both gameplay builds and collectible demand across regions.

Phase II Event Duration Confirmed

Event timing remains identical across all banners

The Phase II Event Wishes all share the same schedule, making it easier for players to plan Primogem spending and wish rotations.

Consistent timing improves planning efficiency

The shared schedule ensures players can freely switch between character and weapon banners without missing staggered timelines. This structure is especially useful for players targeting both Lohen and Mavuika in the same patch cycle.

Character Event Wish “Frostedge Nocturne”

Lohen receives a major drop-rate boost in Frostedge Nocturne

The core highlight of this banner is the 5-star Cryo character “Sharpened Arrowhead” Lohen, who receives a significant rate-up during the entire event duration.

Featured Characters in Frostedge Nocturne

Frostedge Nocturne Featured Characters
Character Element Rarity Role Focus
Lohen Cryo 5-Star Main DPS / Burst Damage
Mika Cryo 4-Star Support / Buff Utility
Xiangling Pyro 4-Star Sub-DPS / Reaction Damage
Bennett Pyro 4-Star Healer / ATK Support

Banner mechanics remain standard but highly favorable

This banner follows standard Character Event Wish rules, including shared pity with Character Event Wish-2. The event-exclusive 5-star character does not enter the permanent “Wanderlust Invocation” pool, making this the primary acquisition window.

At Animon Life, demand for Cryo DPS characters often spikes during banners like this due to their strong synergy in Freeze and Melt team compositions.

Character Event Wish “Ancient Flame Ablaze”

Mavuika headline banner focuses on Pyro dominance

The second banner introduces “Night-Igniting Flame” Mavuika, another event-exclusive 5-star character with a Pyro focus and boosted drop rates.

Featured Characters in Ancient Flame Ablaze

Ancient Flame Ablaze Featured Characters
Character Element Rarity Role Focus
Mavuika Pyro 5-Star Main DPS / AoE Damage
Mika Cryo 4-Star Support Utility
Xiangling Pyro 4-Star Sub-DPS
Bennett Pyro 4-Star Support / Healing

Shared 4-star lineup increases banner value

Both Character Event Wishes share the same 4-star pool, improving consistency for players building support-heavy teams. Bennett and Xiangling remain especially valuable due to their long-standing meta relevance.

For North American fans, licensed retailers such as Animon Life often see increased interest in character-themed merchandise whenever dual-banner updates introduce multiple high-profile 5-star units.

Weapon Event Wish “Epitome Invocation”

Limited 5-star weapons headline the weapon banner

The Epitome Invocation banner features two exclusive 5-star weapons designed for offensive builds and elemental synergy:

  • Disaster and Remorse (Polearm)

  • A Thousand Blazing Suns (Claymore)

Weapon pool breakdown

Epitome Invocation Weapon Details
Rarity Weapons Included
5-Star
  • Disaster and Remorse (Polearm)
  • A Thousand Blazing Suns (Claymore)
4-Star
  • The Alley Flash (Sword)
  • Wine and Song (Catalyst)
  • Alley Hunter (Bow)
  • Rainslasher (Claymore)
  • Favonius Lance (Polearm)

Epitomized Path system improves targeting

Players can use the Epitomized Path mechanic to select a preferred 5-star weapon, increasing the chance of obtaining a specific banner weapon over time. This system is particularly useful for optimizing endgame builds.

Key Event Mechanics Explained

Wish pity system is shared across banners

The Character Event Wish and Character Event Wish-2 share a unified pity system, meaning pulls carry over between both banners. This prevents progress loss when switching between Lohen and Mavuika banners.

Test Run mode allows character previews

Each featured character includes a Test Run challenge that lets players try fixed team compositions and earn rewards. This helps evaluate playstyle compatibility before committing Primogems.

At Animon Life, we often see players use test runs as a decision-making step before investing in character banners, especially when multiple limited characters are active at once.
