New features for Genshin Impact Version 5.2 update
New Archon Quest and Seasonal Event: Engaging in Natlan’s Tribal Stories
In Version 5.2, Genshin Impact expands the story of Natlan through an Archon Quest and an engaging seasonal event. The Archon Quest Chapter V: Interlude, titled “All Fires Fuel the Flame,” allows players to assist Natlan’s Flower-Feather Clan as they work to recover from the effects of Abyssal contamination. With support from notable characters like the Captain and Iansan, players can expect a story-rich respite, focusing on rebuilding and healing as Natlan’s resilience is tested.
In the seasonal event “Iktomi Spiritseeking Scrolls,” players join Citlali and Ororon from the Masters of the Night-Wind group to investigate a strange accident that has disrupted the group. This event combines combat challenges with exploration as players gather spirits and weave scrolls to unlock rewards, including Primogems and the exclusive 4-star weapon, “Calamity of Eshu.”
New Saurians in Natlan: Qucusaurs and Iktomisaurs
Since Genshin Impact Version 5.0, Saurians have been a crucial addition, aiding the Traveler in exploring Natlan’s vast landscapes. With Version 5.2, two new Saurian types, Qucusaurs and Iktomisaurs, bring powerful abilities to enhance exploration and combat. Qucusaurs, known for their gliding skill, can cover long distances and even consume a unique energy source called phlogiston to fly higher, roll, or accelerate in mid-air.
Iktomisaurs, on the other hand, are valued by the Masters of the Night-Wind for their wisdom. They specialize in vertical leaps, allowing the Traveler to quickly scale challenging landscapes. Additionally, their heightened vision detects hidden objects, paths, and even treasures, offering a distinct advantage for those keen on uncovering Natlan’s secrets. With Qucusaurs and Iktomisaurs, you’ll be well-equipped to handle diverse environments, scale heights, and track down hidden mysteries across Natlan’s terrain.
Exploring Ochkanatlan: The Lost City and Its Challenges
In Version 5.2, a mysterious ancient city, Ochkanatlan, awaits discovery in northwest Natlan. Once a marvel of multi-layered architecture, this long-lost city is now affected by Abyssal contamination, with its ruins haunted by a ferocious dragon and dangerous creatures. As you navigate this complex city, you’ll encounter unique environmental challenges that demand strategic movement and Saurian support.
Using Qucusaurs and Iktomisaurs, players can explore Ochkanatlan’s layers with greater freedom. Qucusaurs help cover distances and scale towering walls, while Iktomisaurs detect hidden paths, giving you a significant edge in avoiding traps and discovering treasures. This city isn’t just another ruin but a narrative-rich zone with secrets tied to Natlan’s past. As you explore, you’ll piece together why Ochkanatlan fell and what secrets lie hidden under the layers of contamination.
Version 5.2 also introduces a new companion, Cocouik, who specializes in dealing with Abyssal contamination. This little helper plays a significant role in clearing corrupted areas and assisting you in restoring portions of Ochkanatlan to their former beauty. Cocouik’s skills are especially valuable as you encounter regions heavily affected by Abyssal energy that blocks progression or hides enemies.
