Summary
- A chart reveals Escoffier is responsible for over 85% of sales, which is surprising given Navia's popularity.
- The addition of Ifa, a new 4-star character, did not significantly impact the revenue difference between Escoffier and Navia.
- Gameplay leaks hint at Escoffier's synergy with Skirk, one of the most anticipated characters in the Genshin Impact community.
An interesting Genshin Impact chart shows the sales difference between the two currently featured five-star characters, Fontaine's Escoffier and Navia. Every update in Genshin Impact consists of two parts, each featuring a separate Limited Character Banner. Since double banners were introduced back in Inazuma, they have become a standard practice for HoYoverse's most popular title.
This means that players can pull for two separate limited five-star characters at the same time for around three weeks, which is the approximate duration of each limited banner. Players who want to get either of these two five-stars have only a few days left, as their banners are scheduled to expire around May 27.
Rumor: May 22 Could Be a Major Date for Genshin Impact Fans
A new Genshin Impact leak suggests that players should look forward to announcements in May, which could reveal important news about new updates.
A credible Genshin Impact stats site called Paimon.moe has revealed the revenue difference between the new five-star chef Escoffier and the fan-favorite Geo user Navia. According to the chart, Escoffier is responsible for over 85% of the sales, which might come as a slight surprise since Navia is widely considered one of the best Geo users in Genshin Impact. Escoffier is the only new five-star character introduced in this update, and she's best used as a sub-DPS or support character in a specific team composition that revolves around Freeze. Even though Freeze has been part of the game since release, it has long been one of the least-used elemental reactions in Genshin Impact. However, over the last couple of updates, HoYoverse has given more attention to older elemental reactions, either by directly buffing their effects or by releasing new characters whose kits enhance these reactions.
Genshin Impact: Escoffier and Navia Sales Difference Revealed
The five-star character Navia has had a similar impact on the Geo element, as her addition back in Fontaine caused a slight increase in team compositions that rely on Geo. Navia is best used as a main DPS character in Genshin Impact, and she’s widely considered one of the most fun units to use in the game.
Escoffier was not the only new character added in this banner cycle, as Genshin Impact also introduced Ifa, a new four-star Natlan character. This character is shared between the two limited banners, which means he probably didn’t have a significant impact on the revenue difference between Escoffier and Navia.
One of the reasons why many players pulled for Escoffier could be the fact that recent gameplay leaks confirmed she will have great synergy with one of the upcoming five-star characters, the long-awaited Skirk. The mysterious Skirk has been one of the most anticipated characters in the community, and HoYoverse finally confirmed that she will join the playable roster in the upcoming Genshin Impact update 5.7.
