As seen in a newly shared fan discovery, players have been completing one of ’s most heart-pounding and tense missions in the wrong way. Curiously enough, it is one of the first quests that players embark on when following the main campaign. The popular action RPG was released by HoYoverse back in 2020 and, since then, its contents have expanded significantly. For veteran players, the first onboarding missions in the region of Mondstadt may have even been forgotten, considering how long ago they were first played – and, potentially, how little of an impact they left.
This is especially true when compared to the denser and more complex storytelling direction the game is currently taking with its main quests – the story of Fontaine in , for instance, is one that scars deep with its emotional and profound narrative, as well as the revelations of more information about the larger story of Teyvat, its peoples, and, most importantly, how the Traveler fits into all of that. Nevertheless, for some, the classic Mondstadt missions are held in a special place, but one of the most notorious of them has a completely different possible solution than expected.
According to a post made by Genshinlif3 on Instagram, there is one particularly stealth-heavy mission that players can complete without using stealth at all. As seen in the video, the quest “Venti’s New Plan” can be completed simply by running past the Church guards instead of using the exclusive mechanic to lower and hide behind objects to avoid their sights in. When running past them, their alert meter will increase, but by passing through swiftly, those meters stop, and they lose focus on the Traveler. Of course, the Lyre is then stolen by a Fatui Electro Cicin Mage.
For reference, this is the mission the Traveler is assigned with stealing the Holy Lyre der Himmel to then use its power to restore Dvalin to its regular self after Venti’s plan of asking for it to be lent to him does not work.
The fact that players can get through the Church of Favonius’ basement undetected by simply not using stealth is perplexing, but also a soothing thought for newcomers. This stealth-focused sequence is one of the most tense moments in the game to this very day and is especially remarkable when players have just started their adventures in the world of Teyvat in .
Trying not to get caught can lead to a lot of stress, especially when multiple guards start converging on the player’s presumably safe location. This gets even worse when players fail the objective in “Venti’s New Plan.” Getting caught by the patrolling guards in the underbelly of the Cathedral in Mondstadt can set players back, as they have to restart their infiltration mission all over again.

The latest Genshin Impact leak shows Sethos in action against a Ruin Scout, giving players an idea of his damage potential. In version 4.7, Genshin Impact will introduce players to three new units: Clorinde, Sigewinne, and Sethos. Information about these characters is sparse, but early leaks have already revealed their skills and weapons. Clorinde will reportedly be an Electro DPS, while Sigewinne will scale off HP and serve as a healer. Sethos, on the other hand, is expected to be a four-star Electro applicator similar to Fischl.
A new leak from Genshin Impact is teasing several Domains coming as part of the game's Version 4.7 update in June, showing off four new locations. The Fontaine cycle for the massively popular HoYoverse RPG has brought plenty of areas for players to explore within the world of Teyvat, both inside and outside the new region. Fontaine has received multiple expansions since its 4.0 launch, and the Liyue region finally saw the release of the long-rumored Chenyu Vale. Now, Version 4.7 is set to introduce a plethora of Domains for players to explore.
A long-awaited gameplay feature in is finally arriving if new Version 4.7 leaks are to be believed. The action RPG has just entered the first stages of Version 4.6, a bulky patch that brought forth a load of playable content. Players got an extension to the Fontaine map accompanied by a whole new underwater section and its respective World Quests, as well as Character Quests and the playable version of Arlecchino, the only new character in 4.6. While there is still a lot to do in the current patch, eyes are turned toward the next update.
A hidden detail in the DLC for has probably passed by unnoticed by most players looking forward to the upcoming content. The first fully-fledged expansion to FromSoftware’s award-winning open-world RPG is arriving this Summer and with it comes a load of of new content, which includes an entirely new location called the Land of Shadow, opponents, weapons, and, of course, boss fights. Several weird enemies in ’s DLC were showcased in the trailer, but there is one detail in the video that players may have missed.
Details about Clorinde’s kit in 4.7 have been leaked and the information provided hints at what will be a challenging gameplay rotation, even for some of the game’s best players. Clorinde is the Champion Duelist from Fontaine, the former escort to Lady Furina, and Navia’s old friend. The character has played an important role in the Fontaine storyline and is now finally confirmed as an upcoming playable character in 4.7. She will be released in the same patch as Sigewinne and Sethos, both of which have been confirmed, too, though their order in banners is uncertain.
A new character in 4.7 may make Neuvillette completely broken, according to a set of leaks about the upcoming patch. The popular action RPG is just entering Version 4.6, a massive update where it will introduce the highly anticipated Arlecchino as a playable character. The Fatui Harbinger known as the Knave had already appeared as an NPC during the Fontaine storyline, but had not yet become a playable unit. Of course, the new character in 4.6 is not the only piece of content coming with the new patch, as there is a lot more planned.
A new Genshin Impact leak has revealed more specific details about Clorinde, an upcoming five-star Electro user. Developer HoYoverse has already confirmed that Clorinde will be joining the playable roster in the upcoming Version 4.7 alongside another five-star character named Sigewinne.
Genshin Impact Version 4.6 appears to have made a change to the game's rendering system without being mentioned in the official patch notes. Following the update's release, Genshin Impact fans began to examine the differences in rendering between Version 4.6 and an update from exactly one year prior, Version 3.6.
Unlocking and beating the Knave boss fight in can grant you important rewards for some characters, in addition to being one of the best encounters in the game. The Knave is the boss form of Arlecchino, the Fatui Harbinger that was first introduced as an NPC and was then added as a new playable character in 4.6. While Arlecchino is a ruthless and powerful DPS unit, she gets even more powerful in her boss form – this is quite similar to Raiden Shogun as a character versus her boss form in the region of Inazuma.
Having to choose to pull for Arlecchino or Lyney in 4.6’s banners can be a difficult task, especially considering how similar the characters are in some aspects and whether or not they will fit some team comps. Arlecchino is finally becoming a playable character after her debut as an NPC during the Fontaine storyline – in fact, she is the only new character in 4.6. Nevertheless, the patch is bringing in a load of content beyond her release as a playable unit. This includes a new area to the south of the Fontaine region.
Genshin Impact is introducing a major change to the rewards structure for Spiral Abyss by raising the amount of Primogems that players can earn by 33%. Given that the main appeal of Genshin Impact is its colorful cast of characters, the majority of spending in the world of Teyvat is through the Event Banners that feature 5-Stars on a three-week rotation. While completing daily commissions and engaging with Flagship Events has been a reliable way of obtaining Primogems, the extra pulls from Spiral Abyss shouldn’t be discounted either.
A reliable source in the Genshin Impact community has revealed the full ability kit for Sigewinne, an upcoming healer character set to release in Version 4.7. Though comparisons between Sigewinne and Kokomi were rampant among Genshin Impact players, the first impressions of her ability kit imply that Sigewinne will fulfill a completely different role altogether. As a Hydro 5-Star healer, she will not intrude upon Kokomi’s niche of providing powerful off-field Hydro applications, but will instead focus on increasing her energy recharge and healing power through the Bond of Life.
