How many Primogems do you need to get Ayaka in Genshin Impact?

The poster for Kamisato Ayaka, the fan favorite character of the Genshin Impact cast members, is one more week away.

With Sumeru on the way in upcoming patches, there's a good chance players won't see Kamisato Ayaka returning to the featured banners anytime soon. Therefore, they should take this opportunity to summon one of the best DPS characters in the game while they still can.

Kamisato Ayaka has crazy multipliers on both her charged attacks and Elemental Burst, making her a simple character built to only deal damage while on the field.

This article will discuss all about summoning Kamisato Ayaka and how many primogem players will need in this effort.

Genshin Effect: How many primogems will it take to summon Kamisato Ayaka

Players will need tons of Primogem and some luck to summon Kamisato Ayaka. It is also important that players understand and benefit from Genshin Impact's sting system.

The sting system exists in Genshin Impact to allow players to summon any character they want. According to the pity system, players are guaranteed to summon a 5-star character on their 90th wish.

To wish 90 times on the leaderboard, players will need around 14,400 Primogem, which may sound like a very high amount. However, it is fairly easy to farm that many Primogems if they can grind it daily.

Additionally, the pity system also features a "soft pity" feature that allows lucky players to summon their 5-star characters early.

Based on global wish statistics from paimon.moe, the current soft pity system activates between 73-86 wishes. However, lucky players may only need around 12000 Primogem in the best scenario to summon Kamisato Ayaka.

Either way, players who have been saving up for Kamisato Ayaka for a long time will have a much easier time summoning him.

Worst Case and 50-50 Chances

Whenever a Genshin Impact player summons 5 stars from an event wish banner, they have a 50% chance to summon any 5-star character they want. If they lose 50-50, they will summon a random 5-star character listed on the standard banner.

Therefore, players have a chance to get Keqing, Jean or Diluc instead of Kamisato Ayaka, even if they have 14,400 primoges to make 90 wishes and summon 5 stars from the "Heron's Court" title.

In this case, the pity will be reset to 0 and players will have to make an additional 90 wishes to summon Kamisato Ayaka. So, in the worst case scenario, about 28,800 Primogems should be available to make 180 wishes.

That way, they can summon Kamisato Ayaka whether they win or lose 50-50.
