The world of Teyvat is abuzz once again as Genshin Impact 4.1 looms on the horizon. Following the expansive Version 4.0, which unveiled the initial areas of the Fontaine region and kicked off the third year of content and main Archon Quests, the upcoming update titled “To the Stars Shining in the Depths” promises even more excitement and intrigue.
TABLE OF CONTENTS
New Faces in the Block: Neuvillette and Wriothesley
Set to launch on 27 September 2023, the game’s roster is set to expand with the introduction of Neuvillette and Wriothesley. Both characters have been teased by HoYoverse, and leaks provide a deeper look into their potential roles. Allegedly, both are 5-star heroes. Wriothesley, with his Cryo Vision, and Neuvillette, harnessing Hydro powers, are expected to be Catalyst users. If these rumors hold, Wriothesley would be the game’s first Cryo Catalyst character, potentially allowing him to apply Cryo effects with his Normal Attacks.
Wriothesley: The Cryo Catalyst Maestro
Wriothesley is shaping up to be a DPS powerhouse in Genshin Impact. As a Cryo Catalyst user, he is expected to rely heavily on his Normal Attacks for damage output. His Elemental Skill is rumored to buff its damage while also increasing his resistance to interruption. A significant buff to his Elemental Skill has been hinted at, with the scaling of his Normal Attacks potentially being increased from 160% to 170%. Additionally, Wriothesley’s signature weapon is expected to receive a buff, increasing the ATK of the user by 16% (up from 12%). This weapon might also enhance Normal Attack DMG by 16% and Charged Attack DMG by 14% for four seconds, with a maximum of three stacks.
Neuvillette: The Hydro DPS Prodigy
Neuvillette is anticipated to be a formidable Hydro DPS, wielding a Catalyst. His gameplay revolves around his Empowered Charged Attacks, which can deal massive damage. His Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst are also expected to unleash significant AoE Hydro damage. However, there’s a potential nerf on the horizon for Neuvillette. The scaling of his first passive, which increases damage upon triggering elemental reactions, might be reduced from 130% to 125% with two stacks. His signature weapon is also expected to undergo changes, with a potential increase in HP by 16% and a boost in Charged Attack DMG by 14% for four seconds.
Expanding Horizons: New Areas in Fontaine
Fontaine’s map is set to grow, with two new areas rumored to be added. Lefaye, an underwater realm, and the Fontaine Research Institute of Kinetic Energy Engineering are the anticipated additions. Moreover, the Fortress of Meropide, Fontaine’s underground prison where Wriothesley serves as a warden, is expected to play a significant role in the upcoming story quests.
Additionally, after the update, players who’ve completed the Archon Quest Prologue: Act III will automatically unlock a Teleport Waypoint in the northern part of the Court of Fontaine Region, with a bonus Primogem reward. For more insights and discussions, players are encouraged to connect with Genshin Impact on their official social media platforms.
A New Challenge: The Chasm Seahorse
Adventurers should prepare for a new world boss, the Chasm Seahorse. This creature, surrounded by purple electricity, suggests an affinity for Electro energy. As with other world bosses, the Chasm Seahorse is expected to drop materials essential for character Ascension, potentially for the new characters Neuvillette and Wriothesley.
The Millennial Pearl Seahorse, also referred to as the Chasm Seahorse, is set to make its grand entrance as a World Boss enemy in Genshin Impact 4.1. This formidable creature will be located in the Fontaine region, adding to the list of world bosses that players can challenge for valuable rewards.
Location and Availability
The Millennial Pearl Seahorse will become available to players following the 4.1 update. While its exact map location is yet to be confirmed, players will be able to track its whereabouts using the Adventurer’s Book from the menu, ensuring they won’t miss out on the opportunity to face this new challenge.
Drops and Rewards
As of now, there are no confirmed drops for the Millennial Pearl Seahorse. However, given the trend with other world bosses, it’s likely that this enemy will drop materials essential for character and weapon ascensions, especially for the new characters and weapons introduced in the 4.1 update.
Respawn Time
The respawn time for the Millennial Pearl Seahorse is still under confirmation. Players should keep an eye out for updates to ensure they can maximize their chances of battling this new boss and obtaining its potential rewards.
With the introduction of the Millennial Pearl Seahorse, players can expect a fresh challenge and new strategies to employ. As always, it’s essential to be well-prepared and team up with strong allies to take on this new adversary.
Reruns: The Return of Venti and Hu Tao
For those who missed out on Venti and Hu Tao, there’s good news. Both characters are rumored to make a comeback in the 4.1 update. Venti, the Anemo Archon known for his crowd control abilities, and Hu Tao, a formidable Pyro DPS, are both valuable additions to any team.
