Summary
The latestGenshin Impactleak has revealed that version 4.4 will potentially bring a new function that lets players equip artifacts automatically. In version 4.3,Genshin Impactbrought several quality-of-life changes to artifacts, including Automatic Locking and Quick Unlock functions, which make it easier to manage the inventory. The material cap for upgrading these items is also increased to 15, allowing players to spend less time on the enhancement screen.
Artifacts inGenshin Impactare a type of equipment that can be obtained by defeating bosses or clearing Domains. They are one of the main ways to increase characters' innate stats and receive useful buffs in combat. Depending on their rarity and type, these items have different sub-stats that enhance the wearer’s defensive or offensive capability. As players reach higher adventure levels, they will collect a number of five-star artifacts from bosses and scale them up by sacrificing others. When combined with a powerful weapon, they can play a crucial role in every build that raises the character’s effectiveness.
A recentGenshin Impactleak from Chaliceindicated that version 4.4 could bring a missing artifact feature, which lets players equip the best overall piece of equipment for their character automatically. This feature will reportedly find the best artifact options for the unit based on the majority of player setups within the server. In other words, it will save Travelers from searching for a suitable piece in their inventory. When playing withGenshin Impact’s Navia, they will equip artifacts that offer Geo damage and Crit DMG bonuses if other players follow the right build. However, it’s a bit risky, given that many Travelers may not know how to build a character properly.
FellowGenshin Impactplayers on Reddit seem excited about the possible upcoming auto-equip feature, with some asking the developers to add the ability to create artifact load-outs and share them with friends. It will be interesting to see if this would be helpful for newcomers who barely know anything about character builds.
In addition to quality-of-life features,Genshin Impactversion 4.4will bring a new character duo, Gaming and Xianyun, with which players will upgrade their respective party setups. According to early leaks, they will be featured in the same banner phase to celebrateGenshin Impact’s flagship event, Lantern Rite. There is even a chance that Gaming, the four-star Pyro unit, will be available to claim for free in the upcoming version.
