What is Capturing Radiance?

Event Wish Mechanic for Character Wish Banners

Genshin - Capturing Radiance - New Wish Mechanic
Capturing Radiance is a new Wish Mechanic introduced in Version 5.0 and announced in the 5.0 Special Program.

Players have a chance of triggering Capturing Radiance when they are not guaranteed while pulling for a 5-Star Character in the limited character banners.

5.0 Livestream Summary

How Does Capturing Radiance Work?

Increases Chances of Winning the 50/50 in Character Wish Banners

Genshin - Capturing Radiance - Chance to Win 50-50
When you pull in any Limited Character Banner without guarantee, you have 50/50 chances of getting the featured 5-Star character. In the moment that you 'lose' the 50/50, there will be a small chance to trigger Capturing Radiance.

If you trigger Capturing Radiance, the 5-Star Character you win in the wish banner will be the limited character, turning it into a win!

Does Not Affect the Rest of the Pity System and Guaranteed Pulls

Capturing Radiance does not affect your existing pity or any guaranteed pulls. If you pull in a banner and lose the 50/50, your next 5-Star Character will be guaranteed and Capturing Radiance will not be triggered.

Pity System Guide

Available in Character Wish and Character Wish-2 Banners

Genshin - Capturing Radiance - Only in Character Wishes
Capturing Radiance can only be triggered in the Character Wish and Character Wish-2 Banners, meaning it will not appear in the Standard Wish, Beginner Wish, nor the Epitome Invocation banners.
