Holy Primogems, Travelers! As a Teyvat veteran who's burned more Resin than a Pyro Abyss Mage in Mondstadt, I'm vibrating like an overloaded Electro crystal over these 5.5 leaks. We're finally getting Natlan's fiery expansion alongside two electro-charged newcomers โ and lemme tell ya, HoYoverse ain't holding back. That Collective of Plenty tribe better stock up on Smoldering Pearls 'cause my wallet's about to stage a rebellion!
โก The Electro Duo: Varesa & Iansan Take Center Stage
Picture this: a 5-star Electro catalyst user who turns plunge attacks into an aerial ballet of purple pain. That's Varesa for ya! Her leaked kit's wilder than a Hilichurl on Sunsettias:
-
Charged Attack launches her skyward for plunge combos
-
Elemental Skill grants stamina-free charged attacks (bless you, Hoyoverse!)
-
Secretly restores Nightsoul points through plunges ๐
Meanwhile, our fiery NPC-turned-playable Iansan brings 4-star polearm energy. She's basically Natlan's feisty little thundercloud ready to zap everything in sight. Between these two? Electro supremacy is BACK on the menu!

๐ช Phase 1: Plunge Attack Paradise
Hold onto your wind gliders, folks! Phase 1 banners are shaping up to be a gravity-defying extravaganza. Varesa's plunge-focused kit practically screams for Xianyun โ that cloud-riding queen who turns anyone into a plunge attack maniac. I mean, her crit rate buffs alone make Xiao mains weep with joy. Putting these two together? Chef's kiss ๐ฅ
Leaked 4-star buddies:
| Character | Weapon | Role |
|---|---|---|
| Gaming | Claymore | Pyro DPS |
| Faruzan | Bow | Anemo Support |
| Beidou | Claymore | Electro Sub-DPS |
Seriously, this banner's got more synergy than Archons at a tea party. If you miss this plunge meta, I'll personally send Crystalflies to haunt your Serenitea Pot!

๐ Phase 2: Geo Queen & Anemo Grandpa Return
When Phase 2 hits, we're getting that sweet Xilonen rerun we've all been hoarding Stardust for. This roller-blading Geo goddess isn't just a RES-shredding maniac โ she's the Swiss Army knife of supports who moonlights as a healer. Compared to poor Venti (bless his Anemo heart), Xilonen's like bringing a cannon to a slingshot fight ๐น
Though let's be real โ any banner giving us:
-
First-ever Xilonen rerun
-
Venti constellations
-
Yanfei rate-up for shield-breaking
...is basically Hoyoverse saying "Here, have some OP goodies!" Not that I'm complaining...

๐ Natlan Expansion: More Fire Than Diluc's Bad Mood
Version 5.4 felt like appetizers, but 5.5? This is the FEAST! The Great Volcano of Tollan ain't just pretty lava โ rumors say it's got:
-
New saurian enemies (dino-riding when, Hoyoverse?!)
-
Collective of Plenty tribe quests
-
Exploration mechanics requiring actual skill
-
Artifact sets that'll make us re-farm everything... again ๐ญ
โ People Also Ask
- "Should I pull Xianyun for Varesa?"
Absolutely! Their plunge synergy is bananas โ like peanut butter and electro slimes.
- "Is Xilonen still meta?"
Honey, she RES-shreds like a woodchipper. Still top-tier support!
- "Will Venti be useful in the new area?"
Probably not for vertical spaces... but hey, gathering Cecilias just got easier!
๐ฎ My Crystal Ball Gazing
Looking beyond 5.5? I'm betting my last Mora we'll get dragon-riding by 6.0. And can we PLEASE get artifact loadouts? My inventory's more cluttered than Klee's bomb stash! But honestly... if they keep dropping fire content like this volcano expansion?
Well
Let's just say
My wallet's gonna need CPR ๐ธ
