While Genshin Impact focuses primarily on open-world exploration and story, it also has a defined meta. And with Natlan coming soon, new leaks point to a potential meta shift with the character in version 5.1.
Ranking of all FONTAINE characters…
A post from dataminer Full Stop Chan, shared on Reddit on June 27, suggests that the upcoming 5.1 version character is a tall Geo female model whose playstyle revolves around shielding and will be crucial to Natlan's meta. Keep in mind that all information is based on leaks and is subject to change.
The message reads: "5.1 Geo Mature Female. An important support kit. One of the most important meta characters in 5.X. Have Shield."
While Genshin has a lot of strong characters, there are definitely missing five-star shields like Zhongli. It seems like the upcoming Geo-shield will be a good competitor for him.
