Genshin Impact Leak Hints at Wriothesley Rerun in Version 5.4
A recent leak suggests Wriothesley's highly anticipated return in Genshin Impact Version 5.4, over a year after his initial release. This news comes amidst ongoing concerns about the game's banner scheduling, a challenge amplified by the ever-growing roster of over 90 playable characters and limited rerun slots.
The current system, even with the introduction of the Chronicled Banner (which many consider a temporary solution), struggles to provide fair rerun opportunities. Shenhe's lengthy wait time (over 600 days) before her rerun highlights this issue. Until triple banners become a reality, extended waits between character reruns are likely to persist.
Wriothesley, a Cryo Catalyst introduced in Version 4.1, exemplifies this problem. His absence from Event Banners since November 8, 2023, has left many players eager for his return. The leak, originating from Flying Flame, points to Version 5.4 as his comeback. This aligns with the recent Spiral Abyss buffs that benefit his playstyle. However, it's important to note that Flying Flame's leak record is mixed.
Version 5.4 is also anticipated to feature Mizuki, potentially Inazuma's first Standard Banner character. If both Mizuki and Wriothesley are featured on Event Banners, the remaining 5-star slots might go to either Furina or Venti, as they are the only Archons yet to receive sequential reruns. Version 5.4's launch is tentatively scheduled for February 12, 2025. Therefore, players should approach this information with cautious optimism.
