@Fredy31 you can't get the event character from the standard banner, but you can get the standard 5* character from the event one if you lose the 50% thing
so, in the end, it is better to focus on the event one since the not-limited 5* are bound to came soon or later anyway
yeah I probably understood it wrong but my understanding was standard you can pull ANY character except current event, and the event pull the pool of characters is reduced, but then you got more chances of getting the current event
But also the standard has a bunch more weapons to pollute what you are pulling
because if im pulling a 3star weapon, guess where it fucking goes... TO THE GRINDER
basically, if you get a 5* on Xiao banner, you either get Xiao OR a standard 5* (Diluc, Keqing, Qiqi, Jean, Mona). If you get the not-limited character, next time you are sure to get the limited one.
The standard banner uses a different type of fate. On that banner you can only get Diluc, Keqing, Qiqi, Jean, Mona OR a 5* weapon (out of a limited pool again)
since you can get Diluc, Keqing, Qiqi, Jean, Mona by failing on the Event banner it is not worth to pull on the Standard one unless you got those fates from quests/events
basically - do not spend gem on standard, only the fates you get for free. Unless you really need that for some odd reason.
Btw, I'll have to go in a while. But I realized another fun thing...
Mona "censoring"...
they still sell the figure, they still have preorders they can't cancell.
So the game censored the big bad thing the pearl clutchers were screaming about, the government can say they protected the children, and the weebs can still see the 1 cm^2 of skin that was there
