Highlights

  • Paimon's Bargains in Genshin Impact offers a rotating selection of characters and weapons every month, including some of the best four-star characters.
  • It is important to save up Masterless Starglitter, which is difficult to obtain, for items in Paimon's Bargains that a player needs, such as constellations or weapons.
  • In addition to characters and weapons, the shop also offers miscellaneous items, including wishes and enemy drops of higher rarities, making it easier to obtain rare items and level up characters.

One of the most, if not the most, loved shops in Genshin Impact is Paimon's Bargains. The shop offers wonderful items available for purchase and the stock changes every month. However, for players who only notice that it changes, but don't keep track of what comes when, it can be hard to remember what will be in the shop every month. Genshin Impact doesn't have an in-game way to check what's coming in the next month for the shop, so it's important to get a basic understanding of when to save up Masterless Starglitter for anything a player needs.

Masterless Starglitter is a hard-to-come-by resource, after all, only available by wishing on banners and receiving 4- and 5-star characters or weapons. The requirement method makes it difficult to justify spending it. It can be used to buy back wishes, which may be a surface-level wise use of the currency, but for players who lack any of Genshin Impact's four-star constellations or want to take a look at the available weapons, there may be better uses.

Paimon's Bargain Rotations Explained

Available Character Rotations

Every month, there are new characters in Paimon's Bargain shop. They dish out two each month alongside one of two weapon lines. This is also one of the few ways to get the standard banner characters in Genshin Impact, since they do not appear on limited banners. Even better, some of the best four-stars are available for purchase here. However, the list has not been updated and there is no indication of the intention to add any more four-stars to the list. But, characters like Fischl, Xingqiu, and Bennett are in. All the available characters and their corresponding months are as follows:

  • January and July: Fischl and Xiangling
  • February and August: Beidou and Noelle
  • March and September: Ningguang and Xingqiu
  • April and October: Razor and Amber
  • May and November: Bennett and Lisa
  • June and December: Barbara and Kaeya

Available Weapon Rotations

Since there are only two lines of weapons, Blackcliff and Royal, these interchange every 2 months. The Blackcliff line all have Crit DMG main stats and can be good for DPS characters who need a better stat distribution. They're also good for DPSs in general, as Crit DMG is invaluable. The Royal line of weapons all have ATK main stats with Crit boosting passive abilities. Genshin Impact's Royal line and the Blackcliff line are available in the following months:

  • Royal: February, April, June, August, October, and December
  • Blackcliff: January, March, May, July, September, and November

Miscellaneous Items in Paimon's Shop

The most popular items available in the shop are wishes, the Intertwined, and Acquaint Fates. These are available for 5 Starglitters each. There is no prior requirement needed for a player to be able to buy these. The other items in the shop are enemy drops of higher rarities than can be commonly found. The rarer drops, the blue/purple rarity ones, can be bought here. This makes farming for new Genshin Impact characters much easier if their enemies don't have many spawns or if the drop rates for said enemies are low.

For example, Genshin Impact's Nobushi are notorious for not having solid drop rates for their handguards. Players have complained about this for a while, but a player who has enough Starglitter saved up can skip some of the hassle and be able to purchase the handguards directly from Paimon's Bargains. For newer enemies, this also helps immensely, since there will be less time to farm enough of their drops to be able to sufficiently bring a character up to their max level.
