A new QoL (quality-of-life) update toGenshin Impactis about to make building characters much easier thanks to how much it should affect players’ organization of materials. The action RPG by HoYoverse is reaching the end of Version 5.0, the first update in the Natlan story arc, and it will soon be followed by Version 5.1. There are many new pieces of planned content for the patch, including new Archon Quests to engage in, events, and the playable version of Xilonen – in fact, all of this was confirmed and highlighted during theGenshin Impact5.1 livestream.
When it comes to main story quests, players should continue assembling Mavuika’s roster of heroes to combat the menace presented by the Abyss, though it is uncertain exactly what will occur during the patch. Xilonen will also be presented as an NPC and playable character following her teaser – she will operate as a 5-star Geo support character, capable of debuffing enemies and even healing her allies. In addition to the new content, per si, the developer has announced a series of quality-of-life updates for older features, one of which could make buildingcharacters inGenshin Impacta smoother process.
HoYoverse Announced Several Updates For Genshin Impact 5.1
Many QoL Tweaks Are Underway
The multiple QoL updates were announced by HoYoverse in an official Developers Discussion post shared onHoYoLAB. This includesa skip feature for the Spiral Abyss, which should optimize players’ time within the activity, as long as they have progressed sufficiently during the past season. There are also some changes to the interfaces for Trounce Domains in the Adventurer Handbook. HoYoverse has also alerted players that they could potentially miss out on hundreds offree Primogems inGenshin Impact5.1related to exploration progress within the first Natlan areas introduced with Version 5.0 back in August.
These Primogems can only be claimed by the end of Version 5.2 – after that, the bonuses will be removed from the game.
Genshin Impact’s Crafting Bench Gets A Big Update In Version 5.1
Many New Functions Are Being Added To The System
The most notable QoL update is a tweak to the Crafting Bench. According to the post on HoYoLAB,the Crafting Bench will now feature a one-stop interface that should make it much easier to understand which materials are missingfor each character and weapons’ Ascension process, as well as character Talents. Essentially, the Crafting Bench update will now add a feature that allows players to single out a desired character and that will show all their related development materials. This can be filtered for the character’s Ascension, individual Talents, and their equipped weapon Ascension inGenshin Impact.
Genshin Impact 5.3 Leaks Say Mavuika Is Finally Breaking A Four-Year Trend
The first leaks about Mavuika’s skills in Genshin Impact 5.3 have emerged and she may finally end a character’s four-year reign in a team comp role.
Aside from simply showing the types of materials that the selected character needs for whatever process the player chooses, this update will also allow the Crafting Bench to automatically calculate how many copies of each material are needed and compare it to how many the player currently has. From there,players can choose to craft the materials they require and the game will detect the amount of materials needed to fulfill the development. The post exemplifies this by showing thatKinich’s materials inGenshin Impactneed 12 Seasoned Fangs, but that the player only has 10 copies in their inventory.
Furthermore, when players choose to filter a character by their Ascension, they can also select the Ascension Phase they want to reach. Players can carefully plan out their farming efforts based on each threshold rather than simply farming a huge stock for the complete Ascension. Another helpful tool added to the Crafting Bench update showshow many of a certain material can be crafted instead of leaving it to players to calculate it. Lastly, the player’s latest characters will also be displayed at the top of the page, making it easier to select the filters for them inGenshin Impact.
Why The Genshin Impact 5.1 Crafting Bench Update Is So Good
Players Can Save A Lot Of Time With The Updates
The updates to the Crafting Bench in Version 5.1 are helpful because of how much they reduce wasted time. Showcasing how many copies a player can craft spares them the time of having to do the math and allows them to plan efficiently. Simply showing how many copies of materials are needed for a character’s Ascension from within the Crafting Bench is also a time-saver sincethe current procedure is to access the character’s Ascension page, open the Bench, forget about one of the materials, return to their character page inGenshin Impact, and then access the Crafting Bench again.
Genshin Impact 5.3 Leaks: Mavuika May Have The Most Broken Mount In Natlan
Mavuika’s gameplay kit has leaked and, with it, the mount she uses in Genshin Impact – and it may be broken compared to the other mounts so far.
It is worth noting that this is not a leak and is official information from HoYoverse, meaning it is reliable that it will be added to the game with Version 5.1. These system optimizations and quality-of-life updates have been under HoYoverse’s radar over the past year, and it seems like a lot of the older systems will get much easier and quicker to use as the game moves forward into its fourth year. There are, however, several leaks that have not yet been confirmed by the developer, including a potentialplot twist inGenshin Impact5.1.
