Genshin Impact is a game that you can play for free if you wish. If you want to get the most out of your favorite characters, you are going to need to spend money on the gacha system. Even weapons are something that you need to pull for, and the price of completely refining one can be quite high.
How many primogems would it cost to pull for an R5 5-Star banner weapon?
To get an R5 five-star weapon, you are looking at using around 134,400 Primogems or around $2,100. This is a volatile number, however, as it's much harder to pull on the weapon banner than a character banner. It should also be noted that this number is based on using Stardust and winning some 50/50 pulls for the weapon you are after.
If you have to use the Epitomized Path each time and hit hard pity, you are looking at buying around 268,800 Primogems and spending around $4,200.
How does the 5-star Weapon Banner Pity system work?
Pity for Genshin Impact's weapon banner kicks in at 80 pulls, with soft pity starting somewhere around 60 pulls. The biggest problem with the banner is you can still lose a 50/50, and there are generally two featured weapons at a time. This means even if you win the 50/50, you may end up with the wrong weapon.
To ease the pain of this system, you can use Epitomized Path to guarantee your chosen five-star weapons on your third five-star pull. Once you get the weapon, Epitmoized Path resets to zero.
