How to Use Primogems
Use for Wishing on Banners
Primogems should mainly be used to wish on Gacha Banners. While you can technically pull on a Wish Banner with Primogems, you cannot actually pull on a banner with Primogems alone. Primogems are used to buy an Acquaint or Intertwined Fate to be used on the selected wish.

Primogemx160 eachPrioritize Intertwined Fate
It is recommended to prioritize getting Intertwined Fates with Primogems because these are used for Event Banners. Event banners are almost always better to pull on than the Standard Banners!

Can be Used to Restore Resin
You can also use Primogems to replenish your Original Resin instantly. The initial exchange is 50 Primogems = 60 Original Resin, but the Primogem price increases the more you use it to replenish your Resin.
Not recommended for Free-to-Play
Using Primogems to replenish Original Resin is not recommended for Free-to-Play players. Taking the patient route and waiting for Resin will save your Primogems and allow you to wish more on Banners!
