New content & story updates

Dehya will have her own Story Chapter, and Faruzan will have a new Hangout Event.

The new Traveler’s Chapter story with the return of Dainsleif may be the most intriguing. The new “Caribert” chapter will also feature Kaeya, another Khaenri’ah character, finally interacting with his compatriot. This chapter also introduces the new Cryo Abyss Herald and a new type of Black Serpent Knight foe.

New events

  • Windblume’s Breath
  • Spices from the West: Northerly Search
  • Vibro-Crystal Verification
  • Leyline Overflow

The main event is Windblume’s Breath, which marks the return of the Windblume’s Festival. Traveler can play a variety of minigames and receive a free 4-star Claymore, which can be upgraded by completing events.

More events will be added later in the update, such as Spices from the West: Northerly Search, an updated version of a previous cooking event. The Fungus Mechanicus minigame also combines two older events, combining the Pokemon-like combat of the Fungi event with the tactical Theather Mechanicus.

Vibro-Crystal Verification will be a simple combat event in which you must form two different teams to defeat some odd enemies, while Leyline Overflow will return near the end of the update.

New features

The Genius Invokation Trading Card Game is also being updated. The addition of Eula, Sangonomiya Kokomi, and Kujou Sara cards will undoubtedly cause a meta shift in the game. The Heated Battle mode will also be available, with all Elemental Dice costs temporarily reduced.

The most important change is the addition of Intertwined Fates as rewards for Archon Quests. Following the update, you can claim all Fates from previously completed quests and redeem 1 extra Fate from the Adventurer’s Book for each chapter completed.
