Genshin Impact |OT| 5.0 (Natlan) - Everything Changed When the Fire Nation Arrived

Since I'm trying to fill my scroll before I do the Archon quest, I went ahead and opened up the "quick battle" for the new weekly boss so I can start getting Mav skill materials. Seems like it has 10x the HP as other weekly bosses, but maybe that's just because it's new still and I don't know how to phase skip on it. Cool fight though, and I was legitimately surprised when it cut 1/3 of the arena off.

That said, I still think Arlecchino is the hardest one. This was a more enjoyable fight at least with only a few time waster phases that I ran into.

I still need 4 spaces filled on my scroll before it's full, going to search around to see if it's possible to fill it before the archon quest. I know I still have to do part 3 of the Nightwind quest that wasn't available until this patch, and the wiki said that I have to do the Octonatlan world quest to fill one of them, unsure what the last 2 are though. I was hoping it'd be figured out/datamined by now, but it doesn't seem to be.

*edit*

Also won the 50/50 again and got my Mav C2. That's 4 character 50/50's won in a row, and a double 5* on the weapon banner that got both featured weapons. I'm kinda scared what's going to happen to me since my luck's been so good this patch.

Meanwhile I've only won two 50/50s and lost seven in the past 12 months... I'm due for another lucky streak MHY!
 
I almost convinced myself to do another huge grind and try for Mav C0 because of how powerful she is, it I did her trial again and decided against it. I don’t have it in me for grind like that right now, and I’m flooded with games atm taking most of my time. Skirk or bust.

Neat, somebody made a mod for the "500 years ago" Mavuika from her promo video. I personally like the biker outfit better, but I enjoy these lore-accurate mods. My friend still uses the Zhongli cape one.

Nice Mav cosplay too (inc. shiny boobs)

I really hope for you that Skirk won't end up another gimmicky character... Don't put all your eggs in one basket in this game.

Even if she’s terrible she looks amazing.

All eggs going in!
I'm huffing incredible amounts of copium, but I kinda hope she's another Cryo imbue character, We have plenty DPS/Supports, but if they're going to make her Cryo instead of Void element, the least they could do is give her a unique kit that enables something interesting. Like Chongus but she also buffs Cryo damage and maybe vacuums like Kazuha. Honestly I can't imagine what her kit would be if it's not just Cryo DPS carry, so I hope they do something cool (and not ultra gimmicky like the Natlan gang). She's from an outside organization from the rest of Teyvat, so she's not beholden to any specific regional gimmick, so let's hope that's a positive.

Ya hopefully she’s immune to any sort of weird nations specific gimmicks. Even if she just combines a couple other cryo characters into 1 and is powerful that would be good enough for me. Role consolidation is always nice.

Also, won’t Cryo be getting some kind of buff when the next nation drops?

Leaks are saying that we're still a far way away from actual Snezhnaya. Next nation we'll be spending a year in is the southern tip of Sneznaya called something like Cro Magnus (I can't remember the actual name). It's a separate citystate that has its own laws and stuff, and doesn't follow the Fatui or the Tsaritsa. All the while still being technically a part of Snez. So I doubt this area will be 100% cryo themed, not sure what to expect honestly. Lots of politics, from the sound of it. (in-game politics, not real world shit).

Mizuki "drip marketing" is up. Interesting that she's got elf ears and a tail. Is she a Yokai or a succubus? Normally I'd be pretty intrigued about a hot springs character being revealed, but this is Genshin so no doubt they'll all be fully dressed and standing outside of it.

Likely banner leaks too:

Leaks said she was supposed to be a mouse, but her theming is all about tapirs. I'd have to assume she's a tapir Yokai then. Not sure what the elf ears are about, but I don't think they've ever explained what the deal with those was anyway.

Happy to see those reruns out of the way so their weapons can't shit up future banners. Kinda hoping Iansan might run alongside Xianyun or Mualani.

Oh this really awesome news, now I need to use this opportunity to max out all characters to 80
I think you might be the only one excited for less content in the game.

Artefacts is... Yeah kinda content but this is not either thing I will cry about if it does not come each patch. I rather this than HSR that add way too much relics and ornements that also make lot if ld ones irrelevant and useless aksowith no time to up some extra characters



Dude it's been a while I wanted up everyone specially since theatre introduction, but there was always something that prevent me to do so. So yeah I fucking excited for this. I can now focus on upping everyone now in peace for 2 months around. But I'm pretty sure 5.5 there will be new artefacts. Maybe
