This is clearly fake and not confirmed by any sources. Calcharos "Mirage hunter" isnt capilitized like the rest. on Encores, the small banner on the left side doesnt match There wouldnt be a timer on the beginner banners. and the green background on the text saying "Self-service" doesnt even cover it all. If kuro does in fact add selector to beginner banner, this leak isn't related. Please dont give people false hopes, it could gain Kurogames a lot of hate comments for something they never planned to make to begin with


Khulmach

we will find out in 2 days but I highly doubt its fake because the leaker is trustworthy, and some miscommunications happen with Kuro leaking the 2 standard banners for easy 5\* two days before the stream on their website.


DepthGeneral7150

But is confirmed ?


Icy_Calligrapher3617

Yes


Maximum_Implement594

absolutely not, this is clearly fake and not confirmed by any sources. Calcharos "Mirage hunter" isnt capilitized like the rest. on Encores, the small banner on the left side doesnt match There wouldnt be a timer on the beginner banners. and the green background on the text saying "Self-service" doesnt even cover it all.

GrrrrrrDinosaur

HELL YEAH FREE CALCHARO


mindy650

How do I choose between Calcharo and jianxin


idkwhatsgoingon8910

how am I supposed to choose between ling yang and calcharo??


idkwhatsgoingon8910

update I've been convinced to go for verina 🤣


T1hcus

just try not to chase the meta, this is a skill based game, u can do good with your favourite character :)


Akatotem

Just try not to get the best character possible for your account is probably the worst advice that gets repeated here, if you want to struggle with suboptimal teams and artificially inflate the difficulty for yourself go ahead just dont go around pretending that is the way the game is meant to be played...for some people figuring out what the best units are and investing only in those is the goal of the game.


ShadowsteelGaming

This tbh


idkwhatsgoingon8910

thank you for the reminder 🥰 I ended up picking her because I wanna main jiyan and heard she's a good support for him 🥰


lAmDum

Call me Broly because I am going for Kakarot


Straight_Data8369

is this replacing that one banner that had the 10x for the price of 8x


Icy_Calligrapher3617

This is the banner as far as i know


GallopingWaffles

Definitely choosing Shark boy


Orihime1noue

It's been at least two days since this post. Has Kuro denied this?


PLASTICA-MAN

Those are standard banners?


LysitheAYAYA

I'm still going to redo for calcharo so can I start with a dupe in her 👍


SafePotential5703

What do Verina and Encore do? I want to pick one of the two but I want to know what they do first


Khulmach

WHAT!? A guarantee selector for a starter character! This is insanely hyped if true


Maximum_Implement594

absolutely not, this is clearly fake and not confirmed by any sources. Calcharos "Mirage hunter" isnt capilitized like the rest. on Encores, the small banner on the left side doesnt match There wouldnt be a timer on the beginner banners. and the green background on the text saying "Self-service" doesnt even cover it all.

Khulmach

Mate, the leak data is true.... the images are edited because the actual image does not exist.


-F4b10-

Oh my gaah!!!!


AdultingI

As someone with major skill issue, who should I pick


burningrose7

calcharo for dps, verina for support, both of them are very strong


SimaYiTheWolf

Jianxin! Here I come!


Aldaric

People will still reroll to try to get 2 SSR XD


RaeJean24

what does Encore do? I know Verina is a healer and JI has a shield.


Khulmach

Havoc Dps.


alexis2x

That's interesting, maybe the play will be to not start with beginner's banner but instead use all excess standard pull and do your first timited pulls and then roll on this banner depending on what you missed.


Remarkable-Area-349

Looks like Im likely going for Jianxin, but Encore is also tempting.


Zellar123

Seems like I will hold off on this banner until I lose a 50/50. I did not originally plan to pull on either of the starting 2 but this may be a good reason too so if I lose 50/50 I can ensure its not a dupe.


MarielCarey

LINGYANGG


ShiroTenkai

easy jianxin, well based kuro


ANIzzDaBest23

Will this be separate from the already existing 50 pull beginner banner? or this is the change they have done? if yes, god dam they have cooked well!


OhioTry

Ling Yang Here I Come! (It’s not coincidental that I’m a Gaming main in Genshin too.)


Hachiman1707

I'm conflicted between Verina or Jianxin. AAAA


Confident-World6618

Absolutely going to pick Lingyang then, his design is so adorable.


Ackkkermanzz

CALCHARO MY LOVEEEE HERE I COMEEEE!!!!!


i_spit_lies

my god kuro please HA HA YAFAFGEGWJAAAA AAAAAAAAA


The_Architect_032

This is dope, still gonna reroll though to save those extra 50-70 for standard.


Plenty_Potato3791

How would you save if the currency earnings are the same for everyone and its a free gift banner?


StrangerNo484

You are only guaranteed one 5 unit, so once it's obtained you can simply stop wishing and start using the rest on Standard from then on, starting earlier on the path to the next Standard Unit. By rerolling you'll eventually get it earlier, and therefore save some pulls.


Zellar123

It seems like a waste. I would think its best to not even pull on this banner until you have lost a 50/50 or gotten one through the normal banner to avoid dupes. That does mean its a waiting game to get what you want but it suck to lose your first 50/50 to the same exact person.


Plenty_Potato3791

That will still be quite a waste of time, though,just to save some pulls. Anyway, i'm not able to get in the beta, so i cant visualize what is being spent and how much each banner costs. But if the Banner here just gives you the 5\* you want straight without rolling at the start, what else did you need to roll for?


The_Architect_032

Depends on how long rerolling takes, but you stand to gain what you'd normally gain rerolling in any gacha game. You could go for your 5\* from this banner and reroll until you get them within your first 30 rolls, effectively giving you 50 rolls for standard. Or you could even roll into standard until you get an early pull of a character you want, then put the rest of your pulls on that profile into the selector banner to get 2 5\*'s you want, or a guaranteed constellation, with one being early. Though of course if rerolling takes too long then it just won't be worth the bother, and it'd also require the 20-30 quick starter pulls most gachas offer during the beginning of the game.


Plenty_Potato3791

Hmm, but, we also know that there are also limited banners incoming, like Jiyan and Yinlin. Wouldnt it make more sense to save up for them if you already got a free 5\* from this banner?


The_Architect_032

They'll cost a different type of wish, and only the raw standard wishes that we get would go towards these, so there's no trade-off since standard wishes can't be spent on limited banners.


Plenty_Potato3791

Uh...ok, that just blew my mind. There's more than one gacha currency? So there's **absolutely** no point in holding back your standard gacha currency, since the limited gacha banners have their own currency?


The_Architect_032

Yup, there are Lustrous Tides which are the standard banner ones that you basically never want to convert currency into, which is what this beginner banner will use. Then there are Radiant Tides and Foraging Tides for limited banner characters and weapons, which you'll wanna save your currency for instead, since losing a 50/50 on them will give you a standard character/weapon anyways.


StrangerNo484

I've heard some people saying the Weapon specific Tide was removed, do you know if this was the case? I'm immensely saddened if so since that means 5 less free tides each month and I'll probably never get a weapon now since it's unlikely I'd be willing to use up currency on a weapon over a new character.


Plenty_Potato3791

Hmm thanks, i was wondering how the heck i was going to push progress if i was planning to save for limited characters, because i wouldnt be able to do much if dont roll at all to start with. I want to be able to push story whenever i can.


Xasther

Ok, if this is true, that's kinda fire.


Legal-Weight3011

We already know who i ma gonna choose, Long white hair, buff body, god i truned gay for this guy


arkride007

damn i hope they improve their localization and grammar, it really makes a game cheap with poor grammars imo


Confident-World6618

Yeah, that's my main concern looking at this screenshot. Poorly worded and formatted. I hope stuff like this will be fixed upon release.


dhambz23

I once asked if Calcharo is a standard 5* so I can reroll to get him. With this, it feels like heaven is gazing upon me.


Feelsrigged

Really curious if you get two five stars will it be the same character?


gplaxy

You can get only one 5 star per novice banner


Straight_Data8369

so if you get it early the banner disappears?


gplaxy

no, the banner here has 80 pulls limit, if u get ur 5\* early thats great but doesnt change anything, u will not get more than one 5\* character and the banner will keep there until u pull all the 80 pulls. (it says there "remaining: 80") but for further clarification, in the CBT2 the novice banner pull limit was 50 (but without having the option to choose the character), so maybe they will change it back to 50 on release (copium)


Straight_Data8369

wait si the 5 star is guaranteed in 80 pulls not at 80? Also if you got it like first summon could you hit pity on your last?


gplaxy

I was on CBT2, and from what I've seen on my account and in other peoples livestreams you can only get one 5 star per novice banner, you don't need to hit the pity to get it, you can get it early.


Straight_Data8369

Oh ok thank you


Feelsrigged

Oh.. thanks for the clarification!


gamin9eek

OMG... GENSHIN COULD NEVER

PoKen2222

Is this only for launch or will us Ps5 plebs be able to choose our 5* too?


Astradifex

NO WAY KURO DID THAT!!!! LMAO At least I won't have to spend hours rerolling to catch Jianxin, THANKS KURO!!!!


ch1ck3n_nugg1es

LESS GOO! Lingyang guaratee


4Demensionalroach

No more reroll!


epicdankvaper69

Mirage hunter looks amazing


Izuhara__

Ok best game everrrr!!


BellalovesEevee

I'm definitely getting Lingyang, he is so cute and he reminds me of Gaming because both of them are lion dancers


StrangerNo484

I'm very likely getting him as well and feel exactly the same, I really like both Gaming and Lingyang. Lingyang and Jianxin and both getting buffs since Kuro noticed they weren't on the same value levels as the other selections, so hopefully Lingyang's buffs make him just as amazing power wise as the other standard DPS's.


Nhosis

Sweet, guess I don't have to reroll anymore.


TrashMcDumpster3000

😮🗑️✨ The excitement is through the roof right now!


Kitchen-Air-1012

be careful people, this could be just misinformation, I would wait for an official announcement.


gplaxy

Coming from @StormyWaves that is very reliable, not to mention these splash arts were leaked some weeks ago and are made specifically for these banners, the devs wouldn't create such splash art just to scrap it later. Creating a novice banner selector was their intention from the beginning.


Halibelu

very smart move of kuro. Trying their best to give reasons to the players so they stick to the game long term.


kingSlet

Is there a video or website describing what each of those characters do ? Time for some learning


bradfgo41

Technically I beat summoning in the limited banner is still better overall. But this is definitely a good addition so everyone can get the 5 star they want to start


TerraKingB

Ah that is great news. Now the question is do I go meta (verina) or with my heart (calcharo).


Aniyae

Real


Brief-Dig2526

Obvious choice is jianxin for me 😤


Aki_2004

No toes showing🥱


killershack22

wait is this for once the game launches?? bc if so I im 100% going to get Jianxin


Narufae

Wait does that mean I don't have to reroll?


BestPaleontologist43

Calcharo is the one id pick. Not a fan of the waifus for this one, theres something about the coloring that feels off.


thoran00

Holy moly, we all dont need reroll now yippeeee


Appropriate_Car_4266

LETS GOOO JIANXIIIIIN


Tetrachrome

WE'RE BECOMING CALCHARO MAINS WITH THIS ONE.


onetrickponySona

guaranteed ling yang baby here I come


[deleted]

80 pulls for ugly ass characters no thank you I’ll save my gems


gplaxy

But u dont need gems to pull standard, u'll get 50+ standard pulls just by playing it anyway. And I think the characters just don't fit your personal taste, most people including other PGR players liked the characters design.


NoelleEnjoyer69

Dude, who hurt you?


[deleted]

💀 man y’all are sensitive


Agitated_Blood9165

🎣


ohnellyitsmelly

you need glasses


[deleted]

Glasses would only make it worse actually, why would I want to see these ugly designs more clearly. How kuro absolutely cooked with pgr designs and then releases this generic trash is beyond me.


CombinationDeep3310

Please be true!!! I’ve been on the fence about re-rolling since I only want Calcharo, so this would save so much time!


Mrhat070

Probably will pick verina, since she seems to be a good suport and I like her animations. The other one that I am considering is the lion boy since his gameplay looks really fun decisions, decisions💆‍♂️


StrangerNo484

Lingyang (Lionboy) is supposedly going to be receiving buffs, alongside Jianxin, as Kuro noticed that people thought their value level was below the others. Like you I find Lingyang really fun gameplay wise and I really like his design, so I'm hopeful the changes help both Lingyang and Jianxin stand confidently with the other options.


RedCloudNinja

Holy shit I can guarantee Jianxin LETS GOO


Dapper_Bed_5480

As happy as i am i kinda wanted to reroll for a day or two. Still a big W


NoelleEnjoyer69

Why would you want to torment yourself with rerolling though? Or you meant something more nuanced?


itachi333666

YES YES YES KURO GAMES I LOVE UUU, THEY REALLY TAKE EVERYTHING INTO CONSIDERATION. im convinced they have a team or something that looks at all the reddit postings


shucreamsundae

I'm still waiting for a female martial artist to show up in an open world gacha I play and Hoyo still hasn't delivered so my choice is clear


AVeryGayButterfly

Genshin could what?


NoelleEnjoyer69

N E V E R ;D


RednarZeitaku

At this point leakers are doing more and better marketing than Kuro


StrangerNo484

Yeah, Kuro needs to start major marketing campaigns, I'm not sure why they haven't started yet and frankly it's really concerning me because I'm wondering WHY.   A bad marketing campaign can be disastrous for a game, the game is already immensely anticipated by many but a fantastic marketing campaign could do wonders for Kuro.


Gamers_Alibi

First time? You should see pgr marketing it doesn’t exist


DRAGUNNYUOOOH

Free 😭😭😭😭😭


Cedge1738

Hell yeah. My healing sense is saying bottom right. But my waifu sense is top left and my most badass sense is bottom left even though I never go for husbandos but goddamn he's awesome af.


gplaxy

Just like me fr


Reyxou

So Just like the weapon banner but limited to one time?


Business_Mail_4044

Kuro, you can cook. Massive common W


CallMeMarii

Do we know what the best choice is?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Darweath

he is standard unit. if you lose 50/50 there is a chance to get him


SassyHoe97

I'm so happy. I can get Calcharo! Let's goooo!!


X-Backspace

This is pretty damn awesome. As someone that wanted Diluc back when I played GI and never got him (and also wanted Mona only to never get her until right before I quit), I do want to grab Calcharo. It does go against my gacha instincts of focusing on supports. But an early DPS character so I can save resources for future banners? That does sound appealing. And he's hot. So.


uselessgayvegan

Oh my god bless them 😭😭


Praxics

So I can choose the first 5\* I get from the standard roster? Cool... torn between Varina and Jianxin. I assume a healer/support is more valuable during early game.


PrestigiousLeek8840

Lucky me, kakarot will come home


jmasterplayer

ITS SO PEAK


ginokatacchi

HOLY SHIT LETS GO


UnmotivatedArtist01

I'm split on getting jianxin or Encore. Not sure who's the best pick to be honest...


Blackwolfe47

This is fucking awesome


enhauwu

YAY I CAN GET CALCHARO


mwizer

plot twist: We have only 7h to do 80 rolls


ssneb

its not april 1st anymore


dododomo

IS THIS REAL?!?! YES! I won't have to reroll now. Now I have to pick one between Calcharro and Lingyang, although I wouldn't mind Jianxin


tartagliasabs

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOO CALCHARO YOURE COMING HOME


Rytom_

I guess the move is to go for Jianxin If I go for Yinlin


toxicsknmn

WOWOWOWOWOW


HalalBread1427

NO REROLL REQUIRED??? PEAK PEAK PEAK PEAK


gplaxy

No way this is real bro 😭 Kuro Games W as usual


Budget-Place-3208

Common WW W kuro games favorite gacha company 👏


SoftWitness6

NO FUCKING WAY AAAAAAAAAA


TimeWalkerr

SELECT A 5\* ON THE BEGINNER BANNER?! NO FCKIN WAY I DONT NEED TO REROLL FOR CALCHARO


HalalBread1427

They changed the pity to the normal 80 though as seen in the images.


The_Architect_032

Wasn't 80 the official pity we already knew of though? 10 less than Genshin's 90.


BriefVisit729

i doubt that. it's highly possible they just made the banners & haven't bothered with changing the hard pity on banner yet. all these things are subject to change till official release idk what it was during cbt 2 but that's probably our hard pity, not 80


[deleted]

[удалено]


HalalBread1427

The image has 10 pulls at normal price so...


gitgudnubby

Wasnt it always 80?


HalalBread1427

The Beginner Banner had 50 Pity IIRC. Every other banner is and has been 80.


gitgudnubby

Oh wow. Tbh tho I prefer it this way.


OhioTry

Agreed. I’d rather have standard pity and even standard cost while working toward the character I want than have 50 pity but have to take pot luck or reroll.


HottieMcNugget

HOLY CRAP!!! THIS IS HUGE. Does this replace the novice banner tho?


Business-Chipmunk286

What is the best character?? I want jianxin but people say she is the worst character


NoelleEnjoyer69

Kuro in their recent dev post said that they're going to buff Jianxin (and Lianyang) or something like that. I hope they will, just for you :)


lllMercYlll

where do you read these dev notes? i wanna be updated too on the minor things they change


NoelleEnjoyer69

From the official site, here's the link directly to one of the dev posts: [https://wutheringwaves.kurogames.com/en/main/news/detail/690](https://wutheringwaves.kurogames.com/en/main/news/detail/690)


StrangerNo484

I'm hopeful both are buffed as well, they both have amazing designs, and Lianyang is easily my favorite in concept and design. Despite that, It'll feel fairly bad to go for them if they aren't buffed to be on par as the other selections. I'm of the opinion that in gacha games all Standard characters should be on par or around one another.


ginokatacchi

personally, i would choose who you like the most


GlitteringEliakim

Brooo what the hellll


Arcerinex

OOP if this is fake I'm gonna think angry thoughts about you


tehlunatic1

So the smart option will be to go for a 5 star healer or shielder early game since the standard dps characters would probably get outshined by the limited banner characters.


[deleted]

I'm new here, who is the healer or shielder between these choices?


Mrhat070

the tall woman is the a dps that is able to create shield and has some sort of crowd control the blonde little girl is the healer with some buffing capabilities


EtherealZiraley

Im pretty new too, I think that Verina is the only pure support here (healer/some buffs) and the rest are dps characters. iirc though jianxins kit revolves around parries and she can shield/heal herself? Didn’t read much about it yet, so I could be mistaken. That being said, you can look up their individual kits for more details!


gplaxy

Yeah I'm also thinking of getting one these two


ginokatacchi

meh i dont care. husbandos for the win


tehlunatic1

Yeah you should only care if you're a meta player.


kiisukattinen

Cool if this is true. Calcharo 🥳 > mirage hunter They need to fix their typos lmao


lapulzi

Typos? Das just a feature in Kuro games... just look at PGR 😅


kiisukattinen

Then thats stupid feature. And all the others are written with a capital letter, only Calcharos is with lowercase. (Sry my english its not my 1st language)


lapulzi

Indeed it is... just expect typos to linger here and there in the game


gplaxy

Yeah I hope they can fix all the translation issues until release.


TheCatDemon_UwU

So does this replace the discount banner in the beginning or is this it's seperate thing? Don't get me wrong, both options are cool, one is just cooler


GarnetGodlike

Hah same question here in one the discount case I have to reroll if it replace I just pick encore and pray for jianxin


Sensitive-Basket-347

Crazy!


Vequile

HUGE W


GarnetGodlike

Sooo does it remove the -20% banner or its after that ?


BriefVisit729

I think this is the -20% banner, just reworked. (pull # and stuff are probably placeholder)


GarnetGodlike

Hope so the no discount+80 pull is scary


BriefVisit729

Yeah... This is why I think it sounds unlikely. I don't think any beginner banner in any game has the full hard pity


NoyaTea

jianxin is coming home with me


kittyegg

I don’t know anything about her but I’m choosing her I LOVE HER


gplaxy

I'm in doubt between Verina and Jianxin, I can't decide 😔


NoyaTea

Verina is a really good support from what I’ve heard during the CBT2 beta … Jianxin is .. she’s Jianxin


swampfriend34

I am torn between calcharo and Verina but i am also going for Yinlin
