In the vast and beautiful world of Teyvat, wishing on banners is arguably the most exciting part of the Genshin Impact experience. Whether you’re chasing a powerful 5-star character or a game-changing weapon, you need Fates—specifically, Intertwined Fates for limited banners and Acquaint Fates for the standard banner.

While the quickest way to get Fates is by spending real money, Free-to-Play (F2P) Travelers have a surprising number of reliable avenues to earn these precious items for free. Forget about hoarding every Primogem—here is your comprehensive guide on how to maximize your free Fate haul.
1. The Power of Currency Exchange: Paimon’s Bargains
Paimon’s Bargains is the single most consistent source of free Fates. You’ll use two currencies earned from wishing:

- Masterless Stardust: Every time you receive a 3-star weapon from a wish, you gain Stardust. This currency resets monthly, allowing you to buy up to 5 Intertwined Fates and 5 Acquaint Fates for 75 Stardust each. This is a must-do F2P priority every month.
- Masterless Starglitter: This rarer currency is obtained from pulling 4-star or 5-star items. While you can buy Fates with Starglitter, it’s often wiser to save it for guaranteed 4-star characters or weapons that rotate in the shop. However, if you are close to pity, Starglitter is a viable option for a quick boost.
2. Character Milestones: Ascension Rewards
Don’t forget about your character roster! Every time you ascend a character at Level 20, Level 50, and Level 70, you are rewarded with 1 Acquaint Fate. This applies to every character in your possession, even if they’re sitting on the bench.

A quick and low-cost investment to get free wishes is to level every 4-star and 5-star character you own to at least Level 20/Ascension Phase 1. This requires minimal Mora and resources but can net you a significant amount of Acquaint Fates toward your standard banner pity.
3. Exploration and Regional Progression
As you unlock new regions in Teyvat, you gain access to powerful upgrade systems that reward you with both Intertwined and Acquaint Fates:

- Regional Offerings: Each major region (Inazuma, Sumeru, Fontaine, etc.) has a central offering system (like the Sacred Sakura Tree or the Fountain of Lucine). By collecting and offering Elemental Sigils found in treasure chests and domains, you can level up these monuments, which grant a generous mix of Intertwined and Acquaint Fates at certain tiers.
- Unique Regional Trees: Dragonspine’s Frostbearing Tree and The Chasm’s Lumenstone Adjuvant also offer free Fates at specific upgrade levels. Exploring every corner of the map truly pays off!
4. The Adventurer’s Handbook and Archon Quests
The Adventurer’s Handbook is not just a tutorial; it’s a hidden source of Fates!

- “Travel Guide” Section: After completing acts of the main storyline, known as Archon Quests, check the “Travel Guide” section of your Adventurer’s Handbook. Completing these acts often rewards you with a precious Intertwined Fate.
5. Time-Limited Events and Rewards
Always pay attention to what’s happening in Teyvat.

- Major Events: Genshin Impact’s major in-game festivals, such as the annual Lantern Rite and Anniversary celebrations, often feature login bonuses or event reward shops that include a batch of free Intertwined Fates.
- Web and In-Game Events: Keep an eye on the official HoYoverse social channels and in-game notices. Maintenance compensation, special promo codes, and smaller web events frequently reward Primogems, which can then be converted into Fates at a 160 Primogem to 1 Fate ratio.
