Not for the first time, a devoted Genshin Impact player has swallowed their hopes after holding out for the return of Signora, former Fatui Harbinger and current pile of ashes. Bear in mind, this was after Signora was canonically killed off in Genshin Impact's Inazuma arc following her introduction as as a key villain in the game's opening Archon Quest. More specifically, she was eviscerated and reduced to dust on-screen by the Electro Archon Raiden Shogun. "It's not just paywalled, IT'S WHALEWALLED!": Genshin Impact's new level 100 cap has players terrified of a pay-to-win endgame even as MiHoYo celebrates its own generosity Genshin Impact is giving out free 5-star Constellations for the first time in 5 years, but FOMO beckons: after today, you'll miss out on one A gacha RPG is cutting all the gacha garbage so it can just be a better game: "We're completely removing all character and weapon banners" Not only that, Signora later received a funeral held by her fellow Fatui Harbingers. This was what prompted a response from the dedicated Signora Mains subreddit, you may recall. Clearly, Saving for Signora was also betting on a miracle, some kind of phoenix revival plot twist, but it never came. On October 11, 2025, marking "Day 806: The End," Saving for Signora finally stopped saving for Signora, or at least ended their video series. As their latest video shows, they'd amassed a whopping 1,700 Fates for the limited banner in anticipation of Signora's return – more than enough to comfortably max out a 5-star character. That's 272,000 Primogems, people, or about $3,400 worth. This was devotion. Our hero hasn't necessarily given up on Signora, mind you. This figure carries some special significance. By gacha whaling standards, fully maxing a 5-star character in Genshin Impact requires pulling seven copies of the character itself and five copies of their signature 5-star weapon. This will give you six Constellations on the unit and max refinements on the weapon – a coveted C6R5. If we assume the worst possible outcome of losing every last pity – that is, getting a random undesired 5-star when you hit the pull counter to guarantee a character – and work off of soft pity figures (75 pulls for characters, 65 for weapons), pulling a C6R5 unit would take exactly 1,700 pulls. That's seven characters for 150 pulls apiece, and five weapons for 130 pulls each. Granted, it isn't even possible to get this unlucky anymore thanks to Genshin's relatively new Capturing Radiance mechanic, which fully guarantees a target 5-star character if you lose three pity coin flips in a row, with escalating odds on preceding failures. The 1,700 figure, I imagine, is more of a symbol of loyalty than anything. And after 806 days, you've got to respect the loyalty here. If Signora is ever somehow revived, I hope Saving for Signora wins every single pity, gets early pities, and maybe even some double 5-stars.
