Genshin Impactplayers are asking HoYoVerse to add more Geo element characters to the game after a long gap since the element received its last new addition. The massively popular RPG’s new characters have seen a wide variety of elements represented throughout recent patches with players receiving plenty of new options for their favorite elements. Version 3.0 also introduced the game’s newest element in Dendro with a suite of new characters showing offthe power of Dendro-focused team compositions. Now, fans have noticed one element seems to have been forgotten in HoYoVerse’s new releases.
Out ofGenshin Impact’s seven core elements, Geo holds a unique position among the game’s main combat mechanic due to its reactions with other elements. While other elements each feature unique reactions with one another, providing offensive effects like Overload and Vaporize, Geo instead focuses on a defensive approach. The Geo element features the same reaction acrossGenshin’s four main elements, Crystallize, which grants players a shield. However,Genshin Impacthas seen a long break since its last Geo character joined the game.
