Genshin Impact 5.0 developer stream review: main news

Official broadcast dedicated to Natlan, demonstrated three new heroes and their skills, talked about the mechanics of the kingdom and announced events and improvements for the August version, which will be released on August 28, 2024 and will mark the fourth anniversary of the project.

The opening banners of the Piro region were named by insiders, and their information was once again confirmed.

In the first half of the patch, prayers will include Kachina. A girl with a Hydro catalyst represents the Natlan tribe of water and uses a surf to quickly explore locations, and a Geo spearwoman will allow you to ride a mechanical drill even along the sheer cliffs of the region.

In the second phase, the banners will include Shogun Raiden. Dendro the two-hander will introduce movement mechanics using a grappling hook.

In this case, the following signature weapons will appear in the prayer Incarnation of the Deity: catalyst catch the wave, one-handed Shining harvest.

A separate line of equipment will be provided for other Natlan residents - along with the release of the region, new craft weapons will be added. To create it you will need ore from Fontaine, special diagrams and a separate type of blanks: border lands blanks. You can get some craft weapons through a web event. In addition, the main event reward will be the Ash Horn catalyst.

To further strengthen the heroes, they will be provided with two sets of artifacts: The Scroll of the Hero of the Burnt City, which provides energy and a bonus of elemental damage, and the Obsidian Tome, which increases damage and increases the chance of crit.

And in order to level up your characters, you will need to defeat two saurian bosses - the Gluttonous Mountain King Yumkasaurus and the Kukuzaurus Tyrant of the Golden Flame.

In continuation of the main storyline, the Traveler will have to meet representatives of various tribes of Natlan and find Piro Archon to ask the sixth deity about his sister. In two new quests, "Flowers in the Hot Sun" and Chapter 2, players will also meet yansan and other representatives of the region, and Kachina will be received free of charge.

• To get to know the new companions better, version 5.0 will release quests from the legends Mualani and Kinich, which will tell more about the representatives of the Hydro and Dendro tribes.
• In battle, the Natlan heroes will be helped by the mechanics of the Night Spirit - a special state that enhances their attacks, and also allows the use of special movement mechanics: Mualani's surf, Kinich's grappling hook and Kachina's drill.

• While exploring the region, the Traveler will encounter elemental dragonets - saurians, which will help you explore the expanses of Natlan. In patch 5.0, you will be able to control three types of creatures: tepetlysaurs (Geo), coholasaurs (Hydro) and yumkasaurs (Dendro). Each of them is available in the territory of the corresponding tribe. Also, in one of the world quests, one of the dragonets will become the Traveler’s pet and friend.

• Natlan's unique energy is phlogiston. In the region, it is presented in liquid and solid states, is collected from special particles and is needed to “inhabit” saurians and solve riddles in Natlan.
