πŸ§ͺ Daily Commissions + Welkin: Steady Income

  • Daily Commissions: 60 Primogems x 42 days = 2,520 Primogems

  • Welkin Moon: 90 Primogems daily x 42 days = 3,780 Primogems

  • Combined Total: 6,300 Primogems if you're consistent

This steady stream forms your foundation for 5.8’s wish economy.


Genshin Impact 5.8 Primogem Guide
🎭 Imaginarium Theater (1.5 Cycles in 5.8)

  • Each clear = 800 Primogems

  • Two clear opportunities in 5.8 = 1,600 Primogems

  • Focus on Electro, Cryo, and Anemo for bonus buffs

The Theater is more accessible than Abyss and super rewarding if you plan ahead.


πŸŒ€ Spiral Abyss – Still a Core Source

  • Two full cycles = 1,200 Primogems

  • Requires clearing floors 9–12 with 36 stars

  • Recommend teams: Thundercloud Annihilation (Furina + Yae + Fischl + Kazuha) or Mono Pyro (Clorinde + Bennett)

Even if you can’t get all 36 stars, 600–800 Primogems is a fair expectation.


🌴 Sunspray Summer Resort – Event Highlights

  • Main Story + Mini-Games + Domains = ~1,800–1,900 Primogems

  • Key rewards:

    • Kaeya: Sailwind Shadow Skin

    • 4★ Claymore – Finale of the Deep

    • Multiple Crown materials & Talent books

Tips:

  • Don't skip time trials and floating puzzles

  • Co-op eligible, so bring friends for quicker clears


πŸ—Ί️ Easybreeze Exploration – Chests, Pyroculus & Secrets

  • Chest Primogems (Common to Luxurious): ~800+

  • Pyroculus + Statue Levels: 240–260 Primogems

  • Time Trials & Hidden Quests: ~100+ Primogems

  • Total exploration Primogems: ~1,100+

If you're a completionist, you could squeeze even more out of this region before Natlan drops.


πŸ† Achievements – Easy Bonus Gems

  • New region = new exploration, puzzle, and combat achievements

  • Average total from 5.8 = 200–250 Primogems

  • Easy grabs:

    • “Float Like a Butterfly...” (combat chains)

    • Puzzle-related feats in aquatic zones

    • Full domain clears and secret triggers


πŸ›’ Starglitter & Stardust Shop (Indirect Fates)

  • 5x Intertwined & 5x Acquaint Fates = 10 Fates monthly

  • Total value = 1,600 Primogems equivalent

  • Reset: 1st of each month

Grab these first if you're F2P—they’re one of the easiest ways to build pity.


🌐 Web Events, Login Bonuses & Codes

  • Web Events (e.g. photo sharing or quizzes): 40–60 Primogems each

  • Login Events: 10–20 Primogems/day for 5–7 days

  • Livestream Codes: 3x codes = 300 Primogems

Stay up to date with official Genshin Twitter and Hoyolab community to avoid missing time-sensitive rewards.


⚠️ Reminder: Ley Line Overflow ≠ Primogems

Ley Line Overflow gives bonus EXP and Mora, not Primogems directly. It’s still worth doing if you’re prepping for new characters like Iansan or Natlan 5★s, but it won’t impact your wish count.


🎯 Final Tips to Maximize Your Pull Potential

  • Finish Archon Quests and Story Chapters you’ve skipped—some still offer Primogems + Fates.

  • Claim rewards from Adventure Rank ascensions if you’re close.

  • If you already pulled for Emilie, save the rest for Clorinde, Navia, or Natlan 6.0 banners.


πŸ’¬ Community Tip

“Don't overlook Imaginarium Theater—it’s actually easier than Spiral Abyss if you plan your team around the buffs. Yae + Fischl carried me hard.”
