Tips
- 1Yae Miko is the board’s pick: T0 as a damage support. Mona is T0.5 as a support, Qiqi T1 as a sustain. Diluc, Jean, Keqing, Tighnari and Dehya all sit lower.
- 2If you already own the standard 5-stars, take the one whose next constellation changes the most. Yae Miko’s C1 and Mona’s C2 are the ones the board prices in.
- 3The only requirement is an unlocked Wish screen, so a new account can claim this on day one.
- 4Players who register after Version 7.1 ends get the same offer in the next run of the event, so the pick is not lost by starting late.
