How to Use Epitomized Path

Chart a Course For the Weapon of Your Choice

Players can chart a course towards their preferred 5-star weapon on the Epitome Invocation. Once you've selected a course, you'll be able to gain Fate Points.

1 Fate Point Needed to Guarantee Your Chosen Weapon

After the 5.0 update, players only need 1 Fate Point to have a guarantee that their next 5-Star Weapon pull is their chosen weapon!

Does Epitomized Path Carry Over?

No, the Epitomized Path does not carry over to the next banner, and will reset after the current weapons banner is over.

New Weapon Wish Pity

You can get a guaranteed pull for the weapon you want. However, for you to get this guaranteed pull you have to pull a 5-star weapon up to 2 times in total, where the second pull will be guaranteed to be the weapon you selected.

From Version 2.0 to 4.8, players needed 2 Fate Points to guarantee their chosen weapon, meaning that they had to get a maximum of three 5-star weapons for the third to be guaranteed.

Is Epitomized Path Worth It?

We recommend that you take advantage of the Epitomized Path if you really want the weapon currently on the Epitome Invocation banner, and if you're okay with getting the other 5-star weapon on rate-up.

If you're also not pulling for any characters in the Limited Character banner, and have plenty of Primogems left over, the Epitomized Path can help you get the weapons you desire!

How to Get Fate Points

Everytime you pull a 5-star weapon that's not of your choosing, you'll gain one Fate Point. You only need 1 Fate Point, after which the next 5-star weapon is guaranteed to be the one you want!

When Do Fate Points Reset?

	When you pull the weapon you chose.
	When the current Epitome Invocation ends.
	When you cancel or change the 5-star weapon you chose.

Yes, Fate Points reset after every run of the weapon banner, when you get the weapon that you chose, when you cancel or change the 5-star weapon that you chose.
