Genshin Impactofficially confirmed the three four-star characters that will appear on the upcoming double banner. The previous live stream event already confirmed that the second phase of update 3.3 will have two very strong five-star characters, the Electro Archon Raiden Shogun and Ayato, the leader of the Kamisato Clan.
This means thatGenshin Impactplayers who want to acquire the currently available limited five-stars, Wanderer and Itto, will have a couple of more days to do so as their banner is scheduled to expire around December 27. Each Limited Character Banner also includes a lineup of three four-star characters.

The game’s official Twitter account has confirmed the three four-star characters that will accompany Raiden Shogun and Kamisato Ayato on their banner. Four-star characters have a 10-wish pity which means that players are guaranteed one drop every 10 pulls. While they are usually seen as weaker units, some four-stars like Xiangling and Bennett are considered to be some of thestrongest supports inGenshin Impact. According to the tweet, the upcoming Limited Character Banners will feature the following units:
The two five-star characters, Raiden Shogun and Kamisato Ayato, are both top-tier picks in their respective roles. Ayato is considered a verystrongGenshin ImpactDPS characterwith the ability to dish out tons of Hydro damage. Unlike Ayato, Raiden Shogun can fill multiple roles within a team comp which makes her one of the most flexible units in the game. She can be a main DPS, a sub-DPS, and even a support due to her ability to constantly produce Energy particles.
Players seem overall happy with the four-star lineup, especially since it includesSara who only appears on a banner when she’s placed alongside the Electro Archon. She is a strong supportive character whose main job is to buff her team’s damage output. However, Sara’s kit often seems a bit harder to execute, especially for new players, which is one of the reasons why players usually opt for Bennett whose skills are much more straightforward.
Rosaria is a much more offensive character who can fit both the support and the sub-DPS role. Her best type of party is probablythe Permafreeze team compositionwhich revolves around triggering Frozen. Sayu is a decent Anemo support whose primary job is to provide constant healing to her teammates.
