Genshin Impact 4.7 banners: Clorinde, Sigewinne, and Sethos debut

Every new and returning character coming with the update
HoYoverse

It’s been quite a while since a new update introduced a total of three playable Genshin Impact characters, but version 4.7 resets the counter by setting the stage for a trio of debuts: Elegant and skilled Clorinde, Fontaine’s stalwart sword champion, adorable and supportive Sigewinne, our first playable Melusine character, and the desert-dweller Sethos join the roster.

Update 4.7’s banners contain the final few characters from the initial Fontaine teasers that were confirmed playable back then, which is very exciting – this means that we’re essentially entering unknown territory once more with surprises awaiting us.

Here’s everything you need to know about the Genshin Impact 4.7 character banners.

Genshin Impact 4.7 banners: Phase 1

Starting on June 5, 2024, with update 4.7’s launch, you’ll be able to call upon the following characters:

  • Banner #1: Clorinde (5-Star character, Electro, sword), Sethos (4-Star character, Electro, bow), Bennett (4-Star character, Pyro, sword), and Thoma (4-Star character, Pyro, polearm)
  • Banner #2: Alhaitham (5-Star character, Dendro, sword), Sethos (4-Star character, Electro, bow), Bennett (4-Star character, Pyro, sword), and Thoma (4-Star character, Pyro, polearm)

Clorinde

Undefeated in duels, Clorinde is a powerful damage dealer relying on the synergy between blade and pistol, making her a hybrid character capable of melee and ranged attacks. Like Arlecchino, she makes heavy use of the Bond of Life mechanic whenever she’s using her Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst, acquiring more offensive power the greater the Bond of Life gets.

Alhaitham

Alhaitham is the strongest damage dealer the Dendro element has to offer and is usable in a good variety of team compositions. By generating Chisel-Light Mirrors and consuming them through his Elemental Burst, he can cause massive devastation among his foes

Sethos

Sethos is a damage dealer who thrives in reaction-based teams thanks to his ability to rapidly regenerate Energy whenever Electro-based reactions are triggered. This allows him to make heavy use of his Elemental Burst, which strikes enemies with piercing lightning bolts.

Bennett

Unofficially called the Pyro Archon due to his immense usefulness and power, Bennett has reigned supreme among Pyro support characters for a long time now. He provides an excellent mixture of elemental application, buffs, and healing, making him one of the most versatile units in the game.

Thoma

Thoma is another Pyro support, though a lot more niche than Bennett. However, his shielding ability makes him a useful piece in certain compositions, enabling you to mix things up from time to time.

Genshin Impact 4.7 banners: Phase 2

After a duration of three weeks, the banners will change at the halfway point of the game version on June 26, 2024. That’ll make the following characters available:

  • Banner #3: Sigewinne (5-Star character, Hydro, bow), Noelle (4-Star character, Geo, claymore), Rosaria (4-Star character, Cryo, polearm), and Gaming (4-Star character, Pyro, claymore).
  • Banner #4: Furina (5-Star character, Hydro, sword), Noelle (4-Star character, Geo, claymore), Rosaria (4-Star character, Cryo, polearm), and Gaming (4-Star character, Pyro, claymore).

Sigewinne

Sigewinne is a strong hybrid between healer and damage dealer who can create a bubble that bounces between enemies when fired and not only damages them, but heals Sigewinne’s allies in the meantime. After it bursts, her own HP is restored as well. She makes use of the Bond of Life to regenerate Energy, helping her activate her damage-dealing Elemental Burst more often.

Furina

Furina is an immense get for any account, being both a strong healer as well as enabler – her abilities are key to unlocking the power of many Fontaine-based team compositions that revolve around consistent HP manipulation. Her Salon Solitaire summons can either attack enemies and siphon her own team’s HP or continually restore the team’s health. Her Elemental Burst takes all of these HP changes into account, providing the party with massive buffs.

Noelle

Noelle is a reliable shielder for beginners and can keep your team safe from harm, though she's overshadowed by some of her 5-Star colleagues of the Geo affiliation.

Gaming

Gaming's acrobatic combat style is especially effective when supported by Xianyun, allowing him to make the best use of his aerial maneuvers.

Rosaria

Rosaria is a solid Sub DPS option for any Cryo-affiliated team, providing additional damage output and an Elemental Burst that continues to apply Cryo even if she's swapped out.

Genshin Impact update 4.7 will increase the Resin cap as well, a huge change for players of the game.
