Summary
Genshin Impactmay be getting a new Geo 5-Star in Natlan, as recent information reveals that the upcoming female character will fulfill a support role. Unlike Fontaine and Sumeru, Natlan has been airtight when it comes to leaks, andGenshin Impactplayers have remained largely in the dark when it comes to concept art and the Pyro Region’s character line-up. Version 4.8 introduces Emilie as the last character of the Fontaine patch cycle, and any further addition to the cast will come in Natlan – a cast that players are almost entirely unfamiliar with.
Though some of theupcoming Natlan characters inGenshin Impacthave been confirmed, such as Xbalanque and Iansan, their rarities, weapon types, and visions remain unknown. That being said, Natlan is expected to have one Claymore 5-Star, and two Catalyst 5-Stars very early on. If one were to assume that the Pyro Archon wields a Claymore, then that leaves HoYoverse with the perfect opportunity to introduce Catalyst characters to underrepresented elements such as Pyro and Geo.
According to White, who has had a stellar record as of late, Natlan will introduce a 5-Star Geo character, and she will seemingly be a support toexisting Geo teams inGenshin Impact. While her weapon type hasn’t been confirmed, manyGenshin Impactplayers are hoping that she ends up being a Catalyst wielder. Though White explicitly describes her as having a large chest, this phrasing is being interpreted by players as meaning the new Natlan Geo character having a tall female model. Her name is unknown, which only further cements the drought thatGenshin Impactplayers have been experiencing when it comes to leaks, which is strangely fitting for Teyvat’s Nation of Pyro.
Geo Is Still Missing a Healer in Genshin Impact
As for how this 5-Star Geo Support character couldfit theGenshin Impactmeta, there is one obvious road that HoYoverse hasn’t taken yet. As an element inGenshin Impact, Geo is still missing a dedicated healer. While Noelle gains the ability to heal through her Constellations, having a proper Geo healer would give plenty of versatility to existing teams, especially those of the Mono Geo variety.
ThoughChiori in Version 4.5turned out to be far stronger support for Navia than people were initially expecting, manyGenshin Impactplayers believe that Navia’s potential still hasn’t been fully realized. Navia and Chiori proved that HoYoverse still has plans for the Geo element, and this plan will seemingly continue in Natlan – whether in Version 5.0 or beyond.
