Overview of Upcoming Artifact Sets in Genshin Impact Version 5.5
- Recent leaks suggest that Genshin Impact Version 5.5 may unveil new Artifact Sets tailored for the Natlan region.
- The potential introduction of a secondary Artifact Domain in Natlan could significantly influence gameplay mechanics.
- These new sets are anticipated to enhance the mechanics of upcoming characters, aligning with their unique abilities.
Exciting news has emerged from the Genshin Impact community regarding Version 5.5, indicating that it may finally bring a new selection of Artifact Sets to the Natlan region after a lengthy interval of four updates. Historically, Genshin Impact adheres to a disciplined schedule for its content releases, but Natlan’s progression has notably deviated from this norm. Previously, Version 5.2 featured an Interlude instead of concluding Natlan’s Archon Quest, and Version 5.3 and 5.4 did not expand the map within this region.
With the expectation of content-rich updates approaching, players have described the interim period between Version 5.1 and 5.5 as somewhat barren. Although the Archon Quest’s narrative length was comparable to those of Fontaine and Sumeru, Natlan has, until now, been limited to just two zones and a single Artifact Domain, raising questions regarding its ongoing development.
A source, hxg_diluc via DK2, suggests that Version 5.5 is poised to bring forth a second Artifact Domain in Natlan. This speculation is grounded in several indicators, including the introduction of new factions such as the Flower-Feather Clan and the Masters of the Night-Wind in Version 5.2. Interestingly, the Collective of Plenty remains absent in the current gameplay, which further heightens expectations for new content.
Anticipated New Artifact Sets in Genshin Impact Version 5.5
Considering the current weapon preferences within Natlan, like the Scroll of the Hero of Cinder City for support roles and the Obsidian Codex for hypercarries, the new Artifact Sets introduced in Version 5.5 are likely to explore fresh gameplay niches. Although specific bonuses for these sets have yet to be disclosed, past trends indicate these items often align with the abilities of new characters.
As we look ahead, characters such as Iansan, Varesa, Effie, and Ifa are expected to debut between Versions 5.5 and 5.6. If Iansan and Varesa turn out to be Electro characters, there is speculation that one of the new sets might cater to an Overload or Superconduct playstyle—a scenario that seems improbable but not out of the question given the increasing utility of Overload teams in Genshin Impact. A dedicated Artifact Set designed for this playstyle could enhance team synergy significantly, especially when paired with characters like Chevreuse.
Additionally, the latter stages of Natlan are set to introduce various 5-Star and 4-Star characters beyond the Nightsoul mechanic, such as Skirk and Dahlia. The effects of the new Artifact Sets will likely be designed to complement the distinct needs of these characters, ensuring that players can maximize their effectiveness in combat.
