Hey there, fellow Travelers! It's your adventuring buddy, back with some important news straight from the bulletin board. As we all gear up for the next big adventure in Teyvat, the folks running the show have let me know about a little scheduled downtime for the Top-Up Center. It's nothing to worry about, just routine maintenance to keep everything running smoothly for our future expeditions. I know how it is—you're in the middle of planning your next big pull for that shiny new character or weapon, and bam, you need a few extra Genesis Crystals. So, I wanted to give you all the heads-up personally, just like I'd tell a friend over a cup of coffee at the Cat's Tail.

The maintenance is set to begin on July 17, 2026, at 06:00 (Server Time, UTC+8). They're estimating it'll take about 5 hours to complete. Now, as any seasoned adventurer knows, estimates are just that—estimates. The actual time might shift a little depending on how the maintenance goes. Think of it like clearing a new domain; sometimes you breeze through, and other times you need an extra attempt or two to get all the mechanisms working perfectly. So, a little patience goes a long way!

Now, here's the practical stuff—what you won't be able to do during that 5-hour window:

• Purchase Blessing of the Welkin Moon: That steady stream of Primogems will have to wait just a tad.

• Buy Genesis Crystals: Any plans for direct top-ups will be on pause.

• Acquire the Battle Pass: If you were planning to grab the Gnostic Hymn or Chorus, you'll need to time it outside the maintenance period.

It's a short list, but I know these are key parts of the journey for many of us. The good news? Everything else in the game should be humming along just fine. You can still explore, fight bosses, complete your dailies, and use any Primogems or Genesis Crystals you already have. Consider it a perfect time to tackle that Archon Quest you've been putting off or finally fish for The Catch!

I genuinely want to thank all of you for your incredible support and understanding. The world of Teyvat is amazing because of the community we've built together. I know scheduled maintenance can be a slight hiccup in our plans, and I apologize for any inconvenience it might cause. The team is working hard to make sure the service comes back better and more reliable than ever. A stable Top-Up Center means smoother adventures for everyone!

While the main website's Top-Up Center is down, the vibrant world of the Genshin Impact community is always open. It's the perfect time to connect with other Travelers, share your theories about the next region, or show off your latest Spiral Abyss lineup. Here are the official places where the conversation never stops:

• Official Genshin Impact TikTok Account 🎵

• Official Genshin Impact Twitter Account 🐦

• Official Genshin Impact Facebook Page 👍

• Official Genshin Impact YouTube Channel ▶️

• Official HoYoLAB Website 📝

• Official Genshin Impact Reddit 👾

You'll find teasers, fan art contests, developer discussions, and so much more. It's like the world's biggest adventurer's guild hall!

To wrap things up, let me leave you with a quick checklist so you're fully prepared:

Action Item	Before Maintenance	During Maintenance	After Maintenance
Top-Up Plans	✅ Perfect time to do it!	❌ Temporarily unavailable	✅ Back online!
In-Game Play	✅ All systems normal	✅ All systems normal (except top-up)	✅ All systems normal
Community Fun	✅ Always encouraged	✅ Highly recommended!	✅ Keep it going!

Remember, this is just a brief pause for improvements. Before you know it, we'll all be back to our usual adventures, maybe with a few extra conveniences thanks to this update. If your Welkin Moon is about to expire right around that time, maybe consider renewing it a day early, just to be safe. Otherwise, sit back, relax, and maybe plan your next team composition. I'll see you all in Teyvat soon, ready for whatever the next version brings our way! Stay awesome, Travelers! ✨
