Genshin Impact maintenance compensation

Genshin Impact has announced that they will give players free Primogems to compensate for the 2.2 maintenance. More specifically, players will get 60 Primogems for every hour the servers are down, totalling 300. To be eligible for this reward, players must only reach Adventure Rank 5 when maintenance begins.

Maintenance may end ahead of schedule, as it has in some past updates. If this happens in the 2.2 update, players will still receive all 300 Primogems. On the off chance that maintenance takes longer than expected, players may receive more Primogems at the rate of 60 per hour.

Though Genshin Impact didn’t announce this, they may patch some bugs and give players 300 more Primogems for their troubles. Genshin Impact has done this in many of its past updates. So, with maintenance compensation on top of the bug fixes, it’s likely that players will get 600 Primogems once they’ve updated to version 2.2.

Some exciting additions are coming to Genshin Impact in this new update. The character event banner will feature Childe again, while the weapon banner will feature a new 5-star bow. Moreover, the new Riftstalker enemies and Tsurumi Island will make for some new in-game experiences. Players need to wait a few more hours to play through all the upcoming content.
