We hope this guide helped you learn more about the 5.7 patch announcements and leaks in Genshin Impact. comments share your impressions and expectations from the update. In a separate article, follow version schedule.
I recently knocked out Ayaka and Yoimiya for myself, plus a cryo cook, so Skirk is no longer needed.
Oh… Skip Natlana
Well finally Emilia
They also showed possible Nord characters, but that's more for a separate article.
and what kind of fours will there be?
So far, only Yao Yao and Dalia are known.
How come there won't be a new location?! There's a continuation of the main quest, the perfect place for a location. I need it, I don't have enough for Skirk! I need to close the circle of tons!!!!! And what about the summer inventory and its temporary location? It's a tradition, it has to be! What's the point of releasing two locations in one update?
there won't be a summer one
Yes, players won't be able to clear two areas at once, there won't be enough time, it seems like there will be more gems from Natlan, but then the temporary location of gems won't be enough. And Skirk with Shen He is placed because whoever hasn't knocked out Escoffier will knock out both Skirk and Shen He, and there will be more donations (it's good that Skirk is not with Mavuika). And Skirk is 100% Mavuika, and if Shen He or Escoffier are not there, then there is no need to knock them out.
The developers have become so lazy with this Natlan that they won't even bring in the summer location in the 8th update...
Will there be a hide and seek event?
Not in this patch.
Let's pray that in one half with Skirk there will be Elan, and not a pistol or a shark
Not in one half, but it will be :)
UPD: unfortunately, still no...
It turns out that there will be no time lock in 5.8
will there be a summer update with a temporary location?
Must be in patch 5.8, it is usually in the latest updates of a series of versions.
I hope for a rerun of Ye Lan
That's for sure (I want that too, but after Escoffier I won't have time to save up
