Chasca and Ororon debut while Lyney, Neuvilette, Zhongli rerun
Chasca
Chasca is well-regarded as a Peacemaker from the Flower-Feather tribe. She also plays an integral role in our mission to save Natlan. As a playable character, Chasca will have a 5-star rarity and will wield an Anemo vision. Her weapon of choice is the bow.
Chasca will take on a DPS role, relying on reactions to amp up her damage. She also joins the gunslinger girls Navia, Clorinde, and Chevreuse with a gun of her own.
Chasca will run on the first half of the version
Ororon
Ororon is a mysterious, isolated figure from the Masters of the Night Wind tribe, and is a student of Citlali. He aligned himself with Fatui Harbinger Il Capitano during the crisis at Natlan, believing that in doing so, he could sacrifice his life to help others.
As a playable character, Ororon will have a 4-star rarity and will wield an Electro vision. His weapon of choice is the bow, and he will have a more support-oriented kit.
Lyney, Neuvillete, Zhongli
Lyney is a 5-star Pyro Bow DPS best known as the magician of Fontaine and a child of The House of the Hearth. He will run alongside Chasca’s debut banner on the first half of the version.
Neuvillete on the other hand, is the Iudex of Fontaine and a Dragon Sovereign, as well as one of the most powerful DPSs to date. He wields the Hydro element with a Catalyst as his weapon. He will run alongside the Geo Archon Zhongli on the second half of the version 5.2.
New Saurians
Qucosaur
The Qucosaur will debut alongside the Flower-Feather clan, and is known as the “King of the Sky”. These saurians can take flight with the aid of Phlogiston, and can easily aid Travelers in exploration through the skies.
Iktosaur
The Iktosaur will debut alongside the Masters of the Night Wind tribe. These saurians have the special ability to leap vertically, as well as have the ability to see hidden mechanics.
New areas
The version 5.2 update will feature map expansions that will introduce players to the villages of the Flower-Feather clan and the Masters of the Night Wind Tribe. Additionally, a new area called Ochkanatlan will also be integrated.
Ochkanatlan is an ancient city that has been corrupted by the Abyss, and will feature a new world quest where a new obtainable companion, called “Cocouik” will be included.
New world boss
A new world boss will also be added to the roster of farmable monsters, this time providing ascension materials for Chasca and Ororon. Called the “Tenebrous Papilia”, it has the ability to distort its form into various other bosses, and will only be defeated with the use of Elemental and Nightsoul-aligned attacks.
New Archon Interlude Quest “All Fires Fuel the Flame”, and other events
The Archon Quest Chapter V: Interlude will see the Traveler aid the Flower-Feather Clan from the threat of Abyssal contamination with the aid of Iansan and Il Capitano.
While the main seasonal event for the version will be the “Iktomi Spiritseeking Scrolls”, where the Traveler will be joined by Citlali and Ororon in investigating a mysterious accident within the Masters of the Night-Wind tribe. The event will feature combat challenges, assembling woven scrolls, and gathering scattered spirits for a bounty of rich rewards and an exclusive 4-star sword called “Calamity of Eshu.”
Other events will be as follows:
