Genshin Impact enthusiasts were eagerly anticipating the Version 4.3 update, speculating on the return of Albedo and Itto alongside the debut of the highly anticipated Geo Claymore character, Navia. Contrary to previous expectations, reliable sources suggest a significant change in the character lineup for the upcoming banners. In this article, we take a look into the alterations and explore the potential impacts on players.

Genshin Impact 4.3 Banner Leaks

Originally dubbed the "Geo" patch, Version 4.3 was expected to introduce the highly anticipated 5-Star Geo Claymore character, Navia. The prospect of pairing Navia with Albedo, thanks to her Crystallize reactions, had players enthusiastic about rejuvenating the somewhat neglected Geo element in Genshin Impact.

However, recent leaks challenge these expectations. According to renowned leaker Waffel, the revised banner for Version 4.3 will feature Navia and Ayaka in the first half, followed by Raiden and Yoimiya in the second. This shift leaves Albedo and Itto enthusiasts disappointed, as their reruns are postponed.

Banner Alterations and Player Opportunities

Despite the disappointment surrounding Albedo and Itto's delay, players now have an extended period to stock up on Primogems after acquiring Navia. The delayed reruns also provide an opportunity for players to explore and experiment with the new Crystallize reactions brought by Navia, potentially unlocking exciting synergies with existing characters.

Weapon Bonanza and New Character Introduction

Version 4.3 promises not only a change in character banners but also a noteworthy weapon patch. The introduction of Navia's signature two-handed axe and its pairing with Mistsplitter Reforged, alongside the coveted Engulfing Lightning with Thundering Pulse, makes this version stand out as one of the best for weapon enthusiasts.

Moreover, players can look forward to the addition of a new 4-Star character, Chevreuse, a Pyro Spear user designed for Overload teams. Her presence in the Raiden and Yoimiya banners during the second half of Version 4.3 adds an extra layer of excitement for fans seeking new additions to their rosters.

While uncertainties remain about the exact character banner order, all eyes are on the 4.3 Special Program scheduled for 8th December 2023, where official announcements will provide clarity on the banners of Genshin Impact Version 4.3.
