Genshin Impact 2.2 live stream is approaching, and this may be the best time to start farming Primogems before the update begins.

Primogem is the main currency in Genshin Impact, which players can use to wish for limited characters and weapons. However, since it is almost the end of Genshin Impact version 2.1, only a few ways to obtain Primogems remain.


How to get 11510 Primogems worth of wishes before Genshin Impact 2.2 update

It's worth noting that the Genshin Impact 2.2 update maintenance begins on October 13 at 6:00 a.m. Therefore, players have less than 22 days to collect Primogems before the update.

Before the Genshin Impact 2.2 update, here's an overview on how to get Primogems:

  1. Version 2.2 live stream redemption codes = 300 Primogems
  2. Daily Commissions = 1260 Primogems
  3. Battle Pass = 320 Primogems worth Acquaint Fates
  4. Gnostic Hymn = 840 Primogems worth Intertwined Fates
  5. Blessing of the Welkin Moon = 1890 Primogems
  6. Stardust Exchange = 3200 Primogems worth Acquaint and Intertwined Fates
  7. Spiral Abyss = 1200 Primogems
  8. New Events = 840 Primogems
  9. Daily Login Event = 1600 Primogems worth Intertwined Fates
  10. Character Test Run = 20 Primogems
  11. HoYoLAB daily check-in = 40 Primogems

Overall, free-to-play users will obtain a maximum of 8780 Primogems, while pay-to-play gamers can gain 11510 Primogems worth of Fates. However, note that the Fates included in the list are as Primogems (1 Fate = 160 Primogems), so the number may be lower when dividing Primogems and Fates as separate currencies.

Since P2P players decide to spend on Genshin Impact, they will obtain higher amounts of Primogems in a short time compared to F2P gamers.
