Players who have reached Adventure Rank 5 before the maintenance will be eligible to obtain the updated compensation.

Genshin Impact 1.5 will bring a new Diona Hangout event and an Act 2 for Noelle. Since this feature requires two Story Keys to start, players are likely unable to unlock both on the first day. With only one Hangout event and the upcoming achievements, players can expect 90 Primogems from this event.

There are some cases where players can unlock both Hangout Events on the same day. However, this means that players will have to delay unlocking the new weekly boss, Azhdaha.

In addition to the two new Hangout events, two new story quests will be available as well. Act 2 of Zhongli's story quest will be available immediately, and it's important to do it as soon as possible to open the chance to fight Azhdaha. As for Eula's story quest, it will be available later in the version. Most likely, in about three weeks after her banner is released.

Whether it is a new character or a rerun banner, 5-star characters always have their own Test Run. From there, players can obtain 20 Primogems.

In short, players can naturally obtain over 800 Primogems after the Genshin Impact 1.5 update on April 28th. This means players will receive five extra wishes on the first day of the upcoming banners.
