There’s going to be work done on the avatar technology, factional warfare, Concord sanctioned warfare and a bunch of fixes....

Genshin Impact: The Case for Adding a Neutral Element

Summary Now that all the main elements of Teyvat are playable inGenshin Impact, it’s time to start looking at how else the meta could change with an additional element. It’s already speculated that Dainslief, once made playable, will have a new element for players to explore. But that’s only “new” for now, considering his addition will not be happening until way later. A neutral element would be a good way to ease people into havingGenshin Impactcharacters with abyssal powers instead of visions - or for characters with no visions....
