During the Genshin Impact Version 7.1 anniversary event, your immediate priority is to log in daily to claim the 20 free pulls and redeem your free standard 5-star character selector. After securing these zero-cost rewards, evaluate the limited event banners featuring Vesna and Vodyanitsa against your roster's needs before spending any Primogems.
Claiming Anniversary Rewards
The anniversary update provides free pulls and character redemption options through time-gated event menus.
- 20 Free Pulls: Log in daily throughout the anniversary event window to claim all 20 pulls from the event interface. Ensure your account meets the required Adventure Rank before the event ends to avoid missing daily milestones.
- Standard 5-Star Selector: Access the event page to choose one free 5-star character from the standard pool. Prioritize off-field damage or support characters if your account lacks utility. Only select a duplicate unit if its Constellation provides a direct, necessary bonus to your primary team composition.
Evaluating Vesna and Vodyanitsa Banners
Before committing Primogems to the Version 7.1 limited banners, identify which role best addresses your current endgame progression bottlenecks:
| Character | Primary Function | Ideal Roster Fit |
|---|---|---|
| Vesna | High-damage rotations | Accounts lacking high-tier main damage dealers for endgame stages. |
| Vodyanitsa | Specialized utility and shield-breaking | Teams struggling with specific Spiral Abyss mechanics or shield combat. |
If your roster already clears high-level content comfortably, saving Primogems for future banner cycles is recommended over pulling for incremental upgrades.
Currency Safety and Account Protection
High-traffic periods like anniversary events often draw unauthorized currency sellers and third-party offers.
- Use Official Channels: Complete all currency transactions directly through the official in-game store.
- Protect Account Details: Never share your account credentials or UID with external platforms promising discounted currency or bonuses, as doing so violates the terms of service and compromises account security.

Can you add more details about heroes in a future update?
I tried this today and it worked better than my old setup.
Good guide for Genshin Impact players. The heroes part was useful.
I wish I had read this before upgrading the wrong thing.
