How to Get Free 5-Star Constellation
Complete Daily and Weekly Training Goals
To claim your free 5-star character constellation, Travelers must first complete 8 Weekly Training Goals during the event period, which basically will require you to do 5 days worth of dailies per week over the course of 8 weeks.
Here is the summary on how to complete this event:
- Claim 4 Daily Commission rewards and expend 120 Resin in a single day.
- Do this 5 times per week.
- Get 1 weekly progress for completing that week.
- Repeat process until you get 8 weekly progress to get the Free Constellation.
Complete Dailies 5 Times Per Week
Claim rewards from 4 Daily Commissions or Encounter Points, and expend 120 Original Resin in a single day to complete daily training goals. Complete daily training goals 5 times in a week to complete the Weekly Training Goal for that week.
Repeat 8 Times to Get the Constellation
Once you complete that week, you will get 1 Weekly Progress completion on your event screen, which also gifts you tiered rewards like Dust of Enlightenment or Sanctifying Elixirs.
Repeat this process in 8 weeks in total to claim your chosen character's constellation!
Claim One Character Constellation of Your Choice
During the event, a character's constellation can only be claimed once, and if you've already claimed one before from this event, you cannot claim another on the next rotation.
Note that the selection opportunity does not carry over to the next season, so remember to claim the Stella Fortuna once it's available to you!
Best Character Constellation to Choose
We will list down the best constellations for each character, ordered by priority. Note that most of the characters have a lackluster C1 and so we're mostly focusing on constellations which can be a good stepping stone should you wish to obtain more of them from their reruns.
| Character | Strengths |
|---|---|
|
Klee
(C1, C2) |
・With the new Hexerei Buffs, C1 increases her damage out by having an additional sparks during her attacks and having an ATK buff when that is triggered. ・C2 now shreds enemy DEF by 20% for 10s when she deals DMG with her Elemental Skill. |
|
Albedo
(C2) |
・If you already have his C1, Albedo's C2 allows his Elemental Burst to lighten his kit's split-scaling issues, as DEF will benefit both his Skill and Burst. ・New Hexerei buffs allows Albedo to have off-field capabilities with his C2. Additionally, when triggered, it provides an Elemental Mastery buff for the party. |
|
Mona
(C1) |
・Hydro-elemental reactions are buffed by 15%. ・Hexerei buffs increases the buff by 160%, encouraging Mona to have a Main DPS archetype. |
|
Nilou
(C1, C2) |
・Quite possibly one of the best constellations to pick with the eve of Lauma, her C1 and C2 provides an extension of her Skill duration and Hydro and Dendro RES reduction. |
|
Baizhu
(C1, C2) |
・C1 lowers his Energy Cost requirement. ・Strongly recommended to get his C2 if you already have his C1, as it provides a periodic off-field healing and single instance of Dendro application even with Baizhu not actively using any of his skills. |
|
Hu Tao
(C1) |
・Drastically improves her playstyle as her C1 removes Stamina cost on her Charged Attacks while at her Skill state. |
|
Jean
(C4) |
・Reduces Anemo RES by 40%, which is a rare debuff. ・Lower in the priority if you're already choosing her as the free 5-star Standard Character every Anniversary Patch. |
|
Yae Miko
(C2) |
・If you already have her C1, Yae Miko's totems now unlocks the Level 4 state. This also increases her totem's range, which lets you attack enemies from afar. |
|
Dehya
(C1) |
・Dehya's C1 improves her gameplay as HP now matters on her damaging multipliers. ・Lower in the priority if you're already choosing her as the free 5-star Standard Character every Anniversary Patch. |
|
Xiao
(C1) |
・Increases his Skill charge by 1, which also lowers his Energy cost for the second or subsequent Elemental Bursts. |
|
Tighnari
(C4, C6) |
・Tighnari is the best DPS to pick from the Standard Banner, the more constellations you have near to C6, the closer he is to current S-tier C0 DPS. ・Lower in the priority if you're already choosing her as the free 5-star Standard Character every Anniversary Patch. |
|
Ayaka
(C2) |
・Her Elemental Burst will now have 2 smaller versions of the attack, which provides more coverage and more damage to her placement-reliant Burst. |
|
Shenhe
(C1) |
Premium support for Cryo DPS, gives an additional charge on her Skill which provides more energy and allows her to use both the Normal and Hold variants of her skill. |
|
Ganyu
(C1) |
・Reduces opponents' Cryo RES when they are hit by her Level 2 Charged Attack. |
|
Wanderer
(C2) |
・If you already have his C1, C2 is his best early constellation damage spike. |
|
Cyno
(C2 or C3) |
・His stopping point. None of his early constellations are particularly ground-breaking but if you need some power spike, these are the constellations to get if you already invested some constellations on him. |
|
Itto
(C2) |
・If you already have his C1, C2 is another QoL which alleviates his Energy Costs a bit in Mono-Geo. |
|
Kokomi
(C2) |
・Most of her constellations are just for her on-field kit, which isn't that recommended to use if you're not using her Bloom teams. However, C2 is the only supportive constellation available for her and by far the most worthwhile one that increases her Skill's healing bonus. |
|
Diluc
(C4) |
・None of his constellations are particularly interesting nor powerful to get in terms of DMG output aside from his C4. ・Lower in the priority if you're already choosing him as the free 5-star Standard Character every Anniversary Patch. |
|
Qiqi
(C1) |
・None of her constellations are particularly powerful to get, but her C1 now generates energy on her Skill, which previously doesn't, which is also something! ・Lower in the priority if you're already choosing him as the free 5-star Standard Character every Anniversary Patch. |
|
Ayato
(None) |
・His early constellations aren't that spectacular and only gives him slight damage boosts. Only pick Ayato if you have him at C5 and you want his C6 powerspike. |
|
Eula
(None) |
・Eula's constellations are dated. Only pick Eula if you have her at C5 and you want her C6 powerspike. |
|
Keqing
(None) |
・Keqing's constellations aren't necessarily good, but all of them provide some damage bonus up to C4. ・Lower in the priority if you're already choosing her as the free 5-star Standard Character every Anniversary Patch. |
|
Yoimiya
(None) |
・Yoimiya's constellations are very lackluster and only provides some small damage increase. |
|
Tartaglia
(None) |
・Tartaglia doesn't have a good constellation when it comes to his main role in DPS. You won't need to get his cooldown reduction constellations as managing it depends on the player's output. Should you wish to have a constellation for Tartaglia, C4 at least gives him some supportive capibilities as it'll provide him some off-field Hydro application. |

This is the dumbest I've ever read here. And no, they don't have to be C6 to get up to 95. Also why would you wanna miss out on a free limited constalation? That thing to get them up to 95 you can get anytime from >c6 standard 5* trash. Do some proper reading first and then complain
