The special program livestream hosted by developer HoYoverse showcased all banners of the upcoming update, including the first phase Light Cone banners.

The Brilliant Fixation warp banner will feature Ruan Mei’s signature Light Cone, “My Past Self in the Mirror,” along with three 4-star Light Cones. The Bygone Reminiscence warp banner will feature Blade’s signature Light Cone, “The Unreachable Side.”

Both banners share the same featured 4-stars, which are listed in the section below:

• Planetary Rendezvous: Equipable on any Path of Harmony character.
• A Secret Vow: Equipable on any Path of Destruction character.
• Day one of My New Life: Equipable on any Path of Preservation character.

It is worth noting that A Secret Vow is an excellent 4-star option for most Destruction units as it can increase the damage of a character by 20% at Superimposition level one. Planetary Rendezvous and Day One of My New Life are also great choices for Harmony and Preservation units.

The former boosts an ally's DMG if they wield the same element as the wearer. The latter increases the user’s DEF stat while also boosting the All-Type RES of all allies.
