- A Genshin Impact player has created a table revealing the 5-star queue for version 5.1
- Shenhe beats Eula's record by not appearing in over 14 versions in Genshin Impact version 5.1.
- The developers are having a hard time balancing the event banners, resulting in some characters having to wait more than 500 days.
The Genshin Impact The waitlist for version 5.1 is out, and rather disturbingly, it reveals that Shenhe has officially surpassed Eula's record by not appearing in over 14 versions. While the world of Teyvat is often praised for its open-world content, it's ultimately the characters that are the stars Genshin Impact. Throughout its history Genshin ImpactThe colorful cast was expanded to include fan favorites like Nahida, Neuvillette and Navia.
While Genshin Impact Although players welcomed the new characters with enthusiasm, it also meant that the developers had a harder time keeping the event banner schedule balanced. Less popular characters paid the price, as Eula famously went without a banner appearance for over 500 days Genshin Impact. In version 5.1, not only will Ganyu join the 500-day club, but Shenhe will also break Eula's record of 568 days.
The waiting list table was created by RapidFresh and shared on the Genshin Impact subreddit, taking into account the recently confirmed event banners for version 5.1 – with Xilonen, Chiori, Nahida and Hu Tao being the featured characters. While version 5.1 introduced Xilonen Genshin ImpactOf the other three characters, only Hu Tao missed any significant time on the event banners, as he was last seen in version 4.1.

It's no secret that Shenhe and Ganyu's absence was frustrating Genshin Impact Community, especially since the pair received premium outfits in version 4.4. Additionally, Wriothesley's extended vacation from the event banners makes it clear that the developers aren't entirely sure what to do with Cryo characters Genshin Impact. While Navia, Chiori, and Xilonen have addressed most of Geo's major flaws, Cryo remains in a rather dire situation by comparison.
However, HoYoverse has hardly abandoned the element, as Citlali did in Genshin Impact It is rumored to be a 5-star Cryocatalyst with a Premium Shield Support Device ability package. In addition to Citlali, Capitano was shown to use Cryo during the events of Version 5.0, and while leaks are still uncertain about his status as a playable character during the Natlan era, the Fatui Harbinger will most likely be a 5-star Cryo Sword- Be a hypercarry when released. While only Chasca and Wanderer are rumored for version 5.2, players should not expect Ganyu and Shenhe until the next Lantern Ritual. On the other hand, a banner appearance from Tartaglia and Zhongli seems likely, with the latter guaranteed due to his status as Archon.
