New characters and banners
The miHoYo team has already officially introduced two new characters that will appear in the upcoming patch: Chaska and Ororon. Insiders shared information about their abilities and reruns of other heroes.
Phase 1 Banners
Informants suggest that the following fighters will be featured in banners in the first half of the patch:
- 5-stars – Chaska (Anemo, Onion) and Zhongli (Geo, spear).
- 4-star – Ororon (Electro, Onion).
The first years of life Hours passed in the tribe of kukusaurs. After returning to human society, it was quite difficult for her to adapt to the new environment. She often got involved in conflicts and ran away from home to the mountains without warning. Now Chaska acts as a rather formidable peacemaker, forcing the parties to the dispute to forget all previous disagreements. With the help of her skill, she will be able to fly above the ground, causing damage to several opponents at once. Apparently, in the team she can be given the role of the main damage dealer.
Ororon has an extremely stubborn character. He talks to the plants in his garden and gives them names. It can also be understood that he has a rather close relationship with Aifa. It was the sauroveterinarian, who was mentioned in the lines of other characters in Natlan, who introduced the new hero to the players. Judging by the preliminary description of his abilities, he will be able to act as a secondary damage dealer in the squad.
In "Incarnation of the Divine", you will be able to obtain Chaska's signature Onion called Scarlet Star Vulture Feather.
Phase 2 Banners
The second half of the update (launches December 11th) will likely see the following fighters released:
- 5-star – Venti (Anemo, Onion) and Albedo (Geo, one-handed sword).
- 4-star – unknown at this time.
It was previously assumed that the developers would hold a new global event in Mondstadt, which would cause a Venti rerun, but now it is known that the main event will take place in Natlan, so its banner is unlikely to appear. We will update this information as soon as we have more reliable information.
As for the weapon banner, it may feature the Elegy for the End Onion ( Venti signature).
Pyro the Traveler
In update 5.0, the main Achievement: Hero did not get a new element at his disposal. According to rumors, he will be able to get the Pyro element only in patch 5.3 at the end of the Natlan story arc, when Mavuika gives him the heart of the god. However, it is possible that this will happen in the upcoming version.
New locations
Insiders note that the developers plan to expand Natlan to the northeast, and the new area will be comparable in size to the first region of the Pyro Kingdom. One of the locations will be high in the sky and covered by dense fog on the map, which will most likely have to be removed as part of the mission, as happened on Inazuma.
By the way, it is in this area that the settlement of the Flower Feather Clan is located, where people live With You with the Kukusaurs - flying saurians. The village is located high In the Mountains, and on its territory there are hovering platforms. In the south, you can find the tribe of the Lords of the Night Wind, where most of the inhabitants are healers.
Players will also be able to visit Ochkanatlan, the Eternal Empire, including its ancient capital built by the followers of the very first Pyro Archon.
New Zavrians
Two new types of Saurians can be found in these locations. The Night Wind Lords have Ictomisaurs, which are capable of performing high jumps and scanning selected areas.
The second type is the Kukusaur, who are friends with the inhabitants of the Flower Feather Clan. They are able to fly high above the ground, which can be useful for players to solve various puzzles and pass difficult tests.
