Summary
- Genshin Impact's 4.5 update offers fewer events but focuses on promoting rerun units and introducing exciting side quests.
- The Training Guide feature in version 4.5 helps players optimize character building with personalized recommendations and upgrade requirements.
- Version 4.5 will debut the five-star Geo character Chiori, along with new weapons and side activities like potion crafting and cat petting.
Genshin Impact has revealed all the details about the Training Guide feature that will be available to use in version 4.5 next month. Thanks to early leaks, it became known that Genshin Impact's update 4.5 will bring less content than expected. It will supposedly feature fewer time-limited events and only one new character instead of two. However, players shouldn't fret about the lack of content, as the upcoming update will promote at least four rerun units, introduce some exciting side quests, and give away thousands of Primogems.
Since its initial launch, Genshin Impact has introduced a number of quality-of-life features to offer its player base a smoother experience. For instance, it has recently added a Claim All button for expedition rewards and a Fast Equip feature for artifacts. Besides, the gacha-based RPG has brought the ability to suspend ongoing quests to continue the new version's story.
HoYoverse has confirmed that Genshin Impact's version 4.5 will introduce the Training Guide feature, which helps players build their characters by offering personalized recommendations. As per the description, this in-game tool collects data from active players on the server and provides Travelers with some instructions. It shows commonly used weapons for units, recommending artifact configurations that can beef up the character's performance. Furthermore, the Training Guide displays all the materials required for upgrading Talents. One thing to note is that Travelers can find this feature in the Paimon menu.
Fellow Genshin Impact players think the Training Guide will be a helpful feature for newcomers who know little about character builds. Some also claim that it will make information about characters, artifacts, and Talents more accessible.
Genshin Impact Version 4.5 Will Promote Chiori
Genshin Impact has already confirmed that Chiori, the five-star Geo character, will be the only one getting a debut banner in version 4.5, which means the other banners will be for rerun units. As usual, there will be two separate banners that increase the probability of unlocking these combatants. Also, Genshin Impact 4.5 will bring two new weapons, Urakugo Rensai (sword) and Dialogues of the Desert Sages (polearm), that will be available to claim for a limited time.
Aside from Chiori and her signature weapon, Genshin Impact will add new side activities, such as potion crafting and cat petting, in version 4.5. According to beta leaks, players will try out a unique activity, which requires them to choose three components to craft a potion. They will also pet their cats that live in their teapots.
