Despite the update in June, Genshin Impact still has numerous bugs, errors, and frequent disruptions affecting players.
miHoYo has always made an effort to resolve issues through updates and patches. However, these problems often take a considerable amount of time to address. Meanwhile, as miHoYo is currently quite busy, players might find it easier to exploit these issues for their advantage. One notable bug is causing characters to be less popular in Genshin Impact at the present time.
The main character is the Traveler, a name frequently overlooked. In Genshin Impact, the Traveler is designed to be versatile but never overly powerful. Players can switch elements, but this character’s damage output always remains at a moderate level.
Players often find themselves using this character to explore stronger versions like Mavuika or Neuvillette. However, everything changed with a recently discovered bug in Genshin Impact, significantly enhancing the Hydro Traveler’s power to the point of being overpowered and overshadowing any other characters in the game.
Specifically, the damage output of the Hydro Traveler is devastating whenever it interacts with an enemy. Generally, this is in a perfect state. However, for some reason, the Xiao Lanterns in the game—items derived from the event—are also taken into account. Consequently, by summoning a series of Xiao Lanterns before using a burst, Genshin Impact players can activate a large damage output, allowing the Hydro Traveler to perform exceptionally against bosses for a few seconds, which is something even C6 Mavuika, Arlecchino, and even Neuvillette find challenging to achieve.
Of course, this situation will not last long. HoYoverse is almost certain to fix these issues soon. However, as it stands, the Hydro Traveler remains a “bright star” among the characters in Genshin Impact at this moment.
