Version 3.2 introduces the first agent of the Fengyu specialty, and the mechanics are unusual enough that the standard "crit damage everywhere" advice does not apply. This guide covers what changed in 3.2, how Clara's conversion model actually works, which drive disc stats to chase, three team templates, and the mistakes that cost clears in Shiyu Defense.

The Persona 3 Reload collaboration ran through September 2026 on the CN server and is the headline content of the month. This guide walks through the official timeline, the free pull count, how each of the four new operators is obtained, and a September 2026 priority list for Defender and Medic investment.

Reverse: 1999 4.0 "Box Parade" comes down to three habits: pull first and claim the free 6-star second so you do not duplicate it, carry your pulls over from 3.9 because a parade version usually wants three 6-stars for one team, and spend Euphoria upgrades only on characters who already have their team ready.

Love and Deepspace limited banners work like this: you pick 3 of the 5 featured 5-star Memories to boost, and those picks split 75% of the 5-star drop rate. If you only want one specific card, turn on Targeted Wish, which guarantees your chosen Memory on the next 5-star if the first one misses.

Honkai Star Rail 4.5 ends on September 28, 2026 at 06:00. Spend the last week like this: dump Trailblaze Power into the Flower of Rebirth double-drop event, save Stellar Jade for one banner instead of splitting it, and budget pulls with the 90-pull hard pity and 160 Stellar Jade per Star Rail Pass.

Genshin Impact 7.1 Vesna is a five-star Anemo sword on-field DPS. Build order is attack percent and crit, Anemo damage bonus, then enough energy recharge to keep her burst rotating; pair her with an Anemo resonance partner, a resistance shredder and a healer or shielder, and pull the character before the weapon.

Wuthering Waves Qingxiao is built in three steps: run the five-piece Qingxie Dangsha set with a 4+4+3+1+1 Cost layout, hold crit rate at 70% or higher before pushing crit damage, and take her signature sword Yunlang if you can while using the battle pass weapon Wenqiu as the budget bridge. Her resonance chain sweet spot is S2, with S0 plus signature as the baseline.

Zenless Zone Zero 3.2 adds Roxie on the second half as a Physical Attack main DPS built around single-target finishing. Stack crit rate and crit damage first, then attack percent; run her with Nicole or Anby as the stun partner plus one buffer or shielder, and check the Shiyu Defence node for Physical resistance before you queue in.

One rule clears every Moonlit Waters stage: knock every enemy on the field down, then let your highest-attack squad trigger the field-wide All-Out Attack. Enemies with a physical or arts weakness need enough damage of that type to fall; enemies with an elemental weakness need an elemental burst to fall. Swap your damage dealers by weakness type on SR-EX stages instead of over-investing in levels.

Hedone is Reverse: 1999's 6-star Mineral-affinity Reality Damage support built specifically for the Ritual implement (artifact) system, covering team energy generation, artifact power buffs, Magma Scar amplification and an Ultimate that records ally damage and converts it into stable True Damage; 0-portrait unlocks every core support mechanic, with portraits 2 and 5 as the key upgrades .

Love and Deepspace's Knotted Fragrance event is a collab with the national intangible cultural heritage of Xuzhou sachets, running from 05:00 on 17 September 2026 to 04:59 on 1 October 2026, 14 days in total; players and their chosen love interest complete four craft steps (Design & Embroidery, Stitching, Trimming & Sewing, Fragrance Blending) to earn themed stickers plus sachet charms for all five male leads, free of charge .

Genshin Impact's second 7.0 Spiral Abyss phase went live on September 16, and Floor 12 now gives Swirl reaction damage +200% and Star Swirl damage +75% on the first half, while the second half gives Electro-Charged damage +200% and Lunar Electro-Charged damage +75%; Floor 11 grants the whole party 60% Anemo and 60% Electro damage bonus .

Aventurine•Waveflair is the 5-star limited Elation-path Quantum DPS from Honkai: Star Rail 4.5's second banner half, and his kit revolves around the whole team's attack count feeding him (Heat) stacks for frequent Elation Skill casts; his first bonus ability requires at least 140 Speed, so hit that threshold before anything else .

Sigrid is the S-rank limited agent in Zenless Zone Zero with the Ice attribute, the Attack specialty and PEN Ratio as her damage type; her talents hand her 24% PEN Ratio and 25% ATK for free, so build stats around PEN Ratio and ATK, and her core skill materials are **High-Dimensional Data**:**Corroded Dreamscrap** and **Tainted Crimson Spine**.

Jingran is the 5-star Fusion broadblade character from the second half of Wuthering Waves 3.6, and his damage scales directly off his own Max HP while he converts HP into heavy attack damage behind a self-generated shield; run a 43311 Echo split with a Crit DMG main stat plus two HP pieces and fill roughly 31.57% HP from sub stats.

Makoto Yuki is the Persona 3 Reload collab 6-star Specialist in the Puppeteer branch, and his trait lets him swap to a substitute and keep fighting for 20 seconds after lethal damage; Elite 2 costs 180,000 LMD, 4 Specialist Dualchips, 4 Crystalline Electrokilns and 2 Polymerization Units .

Reverse: 1999 3.9 added two six-stars, Hedone and Narcissus, and Hedone's Psychube should not be her signature; a specific pair of alternatives performs better.

Love and Deepspace September runs a short 5-star Wish window that closes on 7 September, a ten-day check-in, and a two-month Secret Pact, with pull-count rewards expiring per banner.

Honkai Star Rail 4.5's new Xingqi mode splits the Abyss into three lanes that score separately, and free-to-play teams can full-star it on auto, so plan three complete rotations first.

Genshin Impact 7.0's Odette is a 5-star Cryo sword user who converts Superconduct and Cryo Swirl into stellar reactions, wants the new 7.0 set with 3000 ATK and buffs the whole team.

Wuthering Waves 3.6 Qingxiao is an Aero Convergence main DPS: run the five-piece Qingxie Dangsha Heart echo set, pull her signature Yunlang, and pair her with Dania and Monin.

Zenless Zone Zero 3.2 adds Fengyu, a specialty whose damage scales off DEF, so Claret wants DEF and crit rate drive discs, and her best partners are the buffed Koleda plus Rina.

Yuki Makoto is guaranteed within 120 pulls on the Moonlit Waters banner, the event hands out roughly 31 free pulls, and the Campus Store should be emptied in the order summon permits, module materials, Koromaru tokens, elite materials, LMD.

Version 4.5 "A Wager of a Thousand Stars" launched August 26 and runs a compressed five-week cycle instead of the usual six, so both banner halves are shorter than normal . The two SP units split the patch: Robin (Robin • Summeretto, Remembrance, Wind) takes the first half, Aventurine (Aventurine • Waveflair, Elation, Quantum) takes the second. Fill your missing Path before you chase copies.
