Genshin Account Valuation Methodology:

Before diving into the technical details of account valuation, here is a fundamental question for everybody: Where does the account value come from? In order to answer the question, we need to understand the value component difference from starting a new acount [which is FREE].

* Does Primogems, Crystal, SG, SD, resin affect account value? Yes as these are either bought from shop or obtained from completing quests/tasks.

* Does #, star level and rank level of characters affect account value? Yes as these are obtained through limited banner, permanent banners and completing certain quests.

* Does #, star level and rank level of weapons affect account value? Yes as these are obtained through limited banner, permanent banners, collecting chests and completing certain quests.

* In summary, if starting from a new account, in order to catch up to the current account level, the player has spent time completing quests, collecting chest, accumulating primogems, using regular resin to fight different bosses to accumulate all the materials, mora, crystal chunks for leveling up etc…. However, resin, daily quests and limited quests are time sensitive. Once you missed those and they are no longer available to retrieve except fixed story qeusts [ie, archon and world quests]

* Therefore, the account value comes from the actual time and efforts by playing the game to bring the account to the current status as shown in battle chronicle.

* In order to come up a reasonable account value, ideally, the model should consider both the the paper value of the account [this model] and game player distribution [to adjust to find the real worth].

* This Genshin Account Valuation Model uses a bottom-up approach to calculate the account value on paper based exchange assumptions implied through various market mechanisms embedded in the game system.

Factor Category of the Valuation Model [Total 30+ factors]

* Character

* Weapon

* Artifact

* Wish Materials [Primogem/SG/SD/Crystal]

* Backpack Materials Balance
