Summertime in Natlan
In Genshin Impact 5.8, Travelers are invited to explore the Easybreeze Holiday Resort, a vibrant new island region located off the west coast of Natlan in the new Story Quest, “Sunspray Summer Resort.” Joining the fun is the resort’s cheerful mascot, “Asha,” who grants Travelers special exploration powers similar to those of the Saurians, making it easy to glide across water and hover briefly in midair across the layers of the resort. The Asha buddies are also master spray painters, and the color they scatter along the way can solve puzzles and unveil more secrets of the resort.
Hidden throughout the resort are a variety of seasonal events offering generous rewards. Whether by guiding Kau Kau and Akamai in “Travels Are Fuller With Friends,” aiming at opponents in “Strikers Through the Storm,” joining energetic music parties, or spray-painting objects as Asha, Travelers can earn Sunspray Spirit through these mini-games. Collect enough, and Travelers can unlock exciting rewards, including the event-exclusive 4-star Claymore “Flame-Forged Insight” and Bennett’s new outfit, “Adventures in Blazing Hue.” Additionally, Travelers can also pick up Yelan’s fresh outfit, “Tranquil Banquet,” at a special discount.
Fully Lunar-Charged
The featured 5 -star of this banner is Ineffa, an all-purpose household robot created by the Whiz-Kid Mechanic Aino of Nod-Krai. Together with Ineffa, Travelers will set off on a journey across Natlan to uncover the secrets of her origins — mysteries that appear to be closely linked to the ancient dragon civilization.
Ineffa is a 5-star Electro polearm user who introduces the all-new Lunar-Charged reaction. When she is in the team, any Electro-Charged reaction triggered by party members will instead become a Lunar-Charged reaction. Upon activation, a Thundercloud appears on the battlefield, continuously dealing Electro DMG to enemies simultaneously affected by both Electro and Hydro, even with the possibility of triggering CRIT Hits. In combat, Ineffa can deploy a shield and summon the Multipurpose Smart Assistance Unit “Birgitta.” Birgitta can periodically dash toward enemies to deal AoE Electro DMG, and will launch an additional attack if a Thundercloud created by Lunar-Charged reactions is present nearby.
Alongside Ineffa is a rerun of Citlali. In the second half of 5.8, the banners of Mualani and Chasca will return.
