Hey friend! If you‘re wondering how to get the hotly anticipated character Scaramouche in Genshin Impact, you‘ve come to the right place. I‘m going to walk you through everything you need to know to add this powerful Anemo character to your roster.

The quick answer is: Wish on his limited banner when it releases in version 3.3 on December 7th! You‘ll need at least 14,400 Primogems saved up to guarantee unlocking him.

Now let‘s dive deeper into the details:

Overview of Scaramouche Banners and Release Date

• Scaramouche will be released as a playable 5-star character named "Wanderer" in Genshin Impact version 3.3.
• His release date is December 7, 2022 – mark your calendars!
• He will be featured on the first banner of version 3.3, lasting 3 weeks.
• Make sure to wish on his banner between December 7th – December 27th!

Here‘s a quick timeline of when you can wish for Scaramouche:

Version	Banner Schedule	Chance to Wish for Scaramouche?
3.3	Dec 7 – Dec 27	Yes
3.3	Dec 27 – Jan 17	No
3.4	Jan 18 – Feb 7	No

As you can see, the window to get him is fairly small – just the first banner of version 3.3. So plan ahead now to make the most of it!

How Many Wishes Do I Need for Scaramouche?

Let‘s break down the wish ranges you‘ll need to unlock Scaramouche:

Scenario	# of Wishes	Primogems	Odds
Win 50/50	1	160	0.6%
Lose 50/50, hit soft pity	75-90	12k-14.4k	Average luck
Hit hard pity twice	180	28.8k	Guaranteed

Assuming average luck, expect to use around 75-90 wishes or 12k-14.4k Primogems to get Scaramouche.

But RNG can be unpredictable, so here are some benchmarks to aim for:

• 🎯 Minimum goal: 12,000 Primogems
• 🏹 Recommended: 14,400 Primogems (90 wishes)
• 💯 Guaranteed Scaramouche: 28,800 Primogems (180 wishes)

My personal advice is to save up 14,400+ Primogems to make sure you unlock him in most scenarios. The more wishes you stockpile, the lower your reliance on luck!

Is Scaramouche Worth Wishing For?

So should you actually wish for Scaramouche when his banner arrives? Let‘s weigh the pros and cons:

Reasons to Wish for Scaramouche

✅ Powerful Anemo DPS: Extremely high damage potential from Normal Attacks

✅ Crowd control utility: Gather enemies with his Burst

✅ New playstyle: A "melee catalyst" which is unique

✅ Cool design and animations: Dashing hat and flashy moves

✅ Intriguing lore: Complex backstory and redemption arc

Reasons You Could Skip Scaramouche

❌ Have invested Anemo DPS: Xiao, Jean, etc.

❌ Saving for other characters: Like Dehya, Alhaitham

❌ Already have his role covered: Eg. Venti for CC

❌ Dislike his antagonistic history

My Verdict on Scaramouche‘s Value

Based on my personal experience with Anemo characters in Genshin, I think Scaramouche will be a top-tier DPS that is absolutely worth going for if you need his niche strengths.

However, if you already have a stacked roster, he may provide less value compared to new characters that fill gaps for you.

I would only recommend wishing if you either need a strong Anemo carry or really vibe with Scaramouche‘s character design and gameplay. Otherwise he is an easy skip.

But hey, meta and tiers aren‘t everything – go for who you like!

What Are Scaramouche‘s Talents and Abilities?

Now that you know he‘s worth considering, let‘s take a quick look at what Scaramouche actually does:

Normal Attack – Tatarigami Ougi: Performs swift Anemo sword slashes.

• Has unique floating stance when using Elemental Skill

Elemental Skill – Fluttering Pulse: Rushes forward swiftly, dealing Anemo DMG. Enters a special mode where he hovers in the air and is immune to DMG. His Normal and Charged Attacks will trigger heraldic swirls.

• Allows him to avoid attacks while dishing out Anemo damage

• Key damage source from additional Anemo hits

Elemental Burst – Dome of Kunagara: Creates an immense vacuum blade that pulls nearby opponents in before fiercely slicing forward, dealing massive Anemo DMG. The vacuum applies the Seed of Skandha effect on hit.

• Crowd control to group enemies tightly

• Enables powerful Swirl reactions on clustered foes

So in summary, Scaramouche brings a nice mix of offense through his fast Normal Attacks, and utility from gathering enemies with his Burst. Very strong pairing!

What Are the Best Weapons and Artifacts for Scaramouche?

To maximize Scaramouche‘s performance, you‘ll want to equip him with weapons and artifacts that boost his Anemo DMG and ATK.

Here are some solid options I recommend:

Best Weapons

5-Star:

• Tulaytullah‘s Remembrance (Signature): The custom-made signature weapon is BiS for DPS. At R1 it provides 55.1% ATK and converts 80-200 EM into ATK.

• Skyward Atlas (Alternative): Increases Elemental DMG by 12% and has 674 ATK. Great stats for overall damage.

4-Star:

• Solar Pearl (BP): Increases CRIT Rate by 20% and Normal Attack DMG by 20%. Easy to acquire and synergyzes with his kit.

• The Widsith: The DMG buffs can be strong in short battles. High potential in bursts.

Best Artifacts

• 4pc Gilded Dreams (Signature): Specifically boosts his Elemental Skill damage windows.

• 4pc Viridescent Venerer: Anemo DMG +15%. Standard set that also shreds resistance.

• 2pc Glad + 2pc Shime: Budget option for ATK% +18%.

For main stats:

• Sands: ATK%
• Goblet: Anemo DMG Bonus
• Circlet: CRIT Rate/DMG

Prioritize ATK%, Anemo DMG, and CRIT in your substats as well for maximizing his personal damage numbers.

What Is Scaramouche‘s Backstory and Lore?

Scaramouche has one of the most fascinating backgrounds in Genshin Impact‘s lore. Here‘s a quick summary of his origins and story:

• He was a prototype puppet created by Raiden Ei, but abandoned for being too "human"

• Joined the Fatui Harbingers, becoming known as "The Balladeer"

• Played a role in manipulating the Inazuma Civil War to spark chaos

• Defeated by the Traveler, prompting an existential identity crisis

• Travels to Sumeru and decides to sever ties with his past

• Gains an Anemo Vision and the new name "Wanderer"

Scaramouche has gone through incredible development from his beginnings as a divine puppet to gaining freedom and forging his own identity.

I love characters with multifaceted backstories like this, so learning about Scaramouche‘s journey makes me even more excited to add him to my team!

Which Teams Should I Use With Scaramouche?

When using Scaramouche as your main DPS, you‘ll want teammates that can enable reactions and boost his damage.

Some great team options include:

• Scaramouche – Fischl – Beidou – Zhongli: Overload and Electro-charged enablers. Zhongli provides shields and resistance shred.

• Scaramouche – Xingqiu – Diona – Sucrose: Freeze and Vaporize amplifiers. Sucrose buffs EM for Swirl damage.

• Scaramouche – Bennett – Xiangling – Raiden: Powerful National Team framework. Offers huge offensive buffs.

• Scaramouche – Yun Jin – Albedo – Jean: Geo resonances boost ATK. Jean heals and shreds resistance.

Flexibility is one of Scaramouche‘s strengths – he fits into many team archetypes effectively. Experiment to find your favorite!

Should You Prefarm for Scaramouche?

With Scaramouche‘s release coming up, you may be wondering if you can "pre-farm" by collecting his ascension materials ahead of time.

• Local Specialties: Gather Whisperroot, Lumang Grass, and Nilotpala Lotus in Sumeru

• Talent Books: Farm the Ingenuity series

• Mora + XP Books: Stockpile Mora and Hero‘s Wits

The only material you‘ll have to wait for is Puppetary Heart, which comes from his new weekly boss that will unlock when his banner starts.

But pre-farming everything else you can will give you a big head start on raising Scaramouche quickly!

Final Verdict: Scaramouche is an Incredible Addition

After breaking down all the details, I believe Scaramouche will be one of the most powerful and fun additions to Genshin Impact in a while.
