Genshin Impact: How to calculate pity

Checking pity in Genshin Impact is a simple task, and players won't need to do any complicated math to calculate it. Genshin Impact character banners allow for a maximum of 90 wishes before a 5-star character is summoned; the cap of 90 is known as hard pity.

If players reach hard pity, they are guaranteed a 5-star character. However, there is only a 50/50 chance their summons will yield the featured 5-star character. Calculating hard pity is simply a matter of counting how many wishes have been done.

To do this, fans can head to the Wish History tab in the Wish menu. After this has been opened, calculating hard pity is only a matter of counting how many wishes have been done, and then subtracting that number from 90.

The remaining number indicates how many wishes are left until players acquire hard pity.

Soft pity in Genshin Impact is a hidden system that begins to take effect around 70 wishes. At this point, the odds of getting a 5-star character begin to rise, and many fans report getting their 5-star at 75-80 wishes.

This area is known as soft pity, and is reached at around 12,000 Primogems. Soft pity isn't a guarantee though, as it doesn't always occur. Calculating soft pity is done in the same way as hard pity, just by subtracting the total wish count from 75 instead of 90.
