Mondstadt – The City of Freedom
Elemental Focus: Anemo (Wind currents, gliding mechanics)
Traversal: Open landscapes, beginner-friendly terrain, wind-based movement
Hazards: Sheer Cold in Dragonspine, wind barriers in Stormterror’s Lair
Mondstadt serves as the perfect introduction to Genshin Impact's traversal mechanics. Its wide-open spaces facilitate easy running and gliding, while wind currents enable long-distance travel without stamina consumption, ideal for newcomers to master the art of exploration. Many puzzles here revolve around Anemograna, which create temporary wind currents to elevate players.
Natlan – Land of Pyro
Elemental Focus: Pyro (Phlogiston, Saurian Indwelling)
Traversal: Saurian abilities, Nightsoul mechanics
Hazards: Abyssal Blight, Unstable Phlogiston Crystals
Natlan introduces a range of Saurian traversal methods:
- Koholasaurs: Swim rapidly and utilize Jet-Set Eddies for high jumps.
- Tepetlisaurs: Burrow underground, opening up normally inaccessible tunnels.
- Yumkasaurs: Use their tongues as grappling hooks to latch onto objects.
- Qucusaurs: Fly and glide, harnessing Phlogiston Wind Tunnels to maintain altitude.
The region also employs Phlogiston, a volatile Pyro-based energy that powers Nightsoul abilities and exploration mechanics. However, both Liquid and Gaseous Phlogiston can be dangerous, quickly depleting HP if not navigated carefully.
Nightsoul abilities, unique to Natlanese characters, enhance combat and movement, allowing fluid character switching during sprinting, climbing, and swimming.
Environmental hazards such as Abyssal Blight block pathways until purified, and Unstable Phlogiston Crystals explode after a short delay when approached. Access to Tribal Secret Spaces is granted through Obsidian Rings, revealing hidden arenas and challenges.
Natlan's dynamic traversal mechanics make it the most fast-paced and action-oriented region in Genshin Impact, requiring players to master various movement techniques for effective exploration.
Each region in Genshin Impact presents new exploration mechanics, making Teyvat a continuously evolving world. From Mondstadt's straightforward gliding to Natlan's versatile Saurian abilities, every area demands unique strategies for efficient exploration.
