Every other week it seems like MiHoYo is dropping fun and exciting events, for players to play solo or with friends, they tend to last for a week or two long and have players grinding up fun mini-games to turn in for tons of in-game rewards like upgrade materials or Primos!
As long as you complete all of the event objectives the game rewards with hundreds of primos.
Daily commissions are one of the steadiest ways to earn primos, gaining 10 per completed daily and then an additional 20 for turning in the dailies to Kathern will leave you with 420 primos a week towards your next banner pull.
All of the main story quests will allot players primos for completing main checkpoints in the game, as well as a lot of difficult or tedious side quests also will reward players for completing the quests. Then you can also go turn in to collect even more from the Reputation board in both major cities.
