Genshin Impact Top-Up Guide: Crystals vs Welkin Moon
Published on 27 October 2026 • 1 min read

Genshin Impact has three main paid items: Genesis Crystals, the Blessing of the Welkin Moon and the Battle Pass (Gnostic Hymn). They serve different purposes, so the best choice depends on how often you play.
Genesis Crystals
Genesis Crystals convert 1:1 into Primogems, which you spend on wishes for characters and weapons. You can also use them directly to buy outfits in the shop. Each crystal tier gives a bonus on top, and the first purchase of each tier is doubled. The double bonus resets during some anniversary events, so it is worth checking in game before a big top-up.
Blessing of the Welkin Moon
The Welkin Moon gives 300 Genesis Crystals immediately and 90 Primogems every day you log in for 30 days, 3,000 Primogems in total. For a player who logs in daily, it is by far the best value per dollar. You can stack it for up to 180 days.
Gnostic Hymn (Battle Pass)
The Battle Pass unlocks extra rewards as you level it with daily and weekly tasks: a choice of a Battle Pass weapon, Intertwined Fates, Mora and upgrade materials. It is good value if you play regularly and need a 4-star weapon.
Which one should you choose?
- Daily player on a budget: Blessing of the Welkin Moon.
- Saving for a specific banner: Welkin Moon plus first-purchase doubled Genesis Crystals.
- Active player who wants weapons and materials: Welkin Moon plus Gnostic Hymn.
