Key Takeaways
- Version 5.2 in Genshin Impact introduces new characters Chasca and Ororon with unique abilities.
- Ororon debuts as the first tall male Electro character who summons a totem, while Chasca is a Rainbow character.
- Full Event Banners for Version 5.2 are revealed ahead of time, allowing players to plan their spending wisely.
Genshin Impact has revealed the featured characters for Version 5.2, as Chasca and Lyney join Neuvillette and Zhongli on the Event Banners alongside an interesting lineup of 4-Stars. Genshin Impact continues to grow its cast of characters, with Chasca and Ororon joining the fray in Version 5.2 – each representing a new take on Bow gameplay. Though there has been a lot of excitement about the playable debut of both characters, Ororon’s gentle nature won the adoration of the Genshin Impact community.
Ororon is not only the first tall male Electro character, but also the first male off-fielder in quite some time. His ability kit can best be compared to Fischl, as Ororon’s Elemental Burst summons a totem that deals continuous Electro damage (while taunting nearby enemies). On the other hand, Chasca in Genshin Impact is the first true Rainbow character, capable of dealing several types of Elemental Damage directly from her ability kit.

Genshin Impact Chart Reveals Most Used Spiral Abyss Characters for November 2024
A recent chart reveals which Genshin Impact characters were among the most popular in the Spiral Abyss for the second half of Version 5.1.
As revealed by the official Genshin Impact account on Twitter, both new characters are slated to appear in the first half of the Event Banners, alongside Lyney, Sucrose, and Barbara. However, thanks to datamining and the process of elimination, the rest of the 4-Stars can safely be guessed. The second half of Version 5.2 will be headlined by Neuvillette and Zhongli, with Shikanoin Heizou, Yao Yao, and Fischl accompanying them. This effectively reveals the full Event Banners for Version 5.2 of Genshin Impact well ahead of time, allowing players to plan out their spending wisely.
Genshin Impact: Banner Characters for Version 5.2
While Lyney and Chasca make for a powerful Weapon Banner in Genshin Impact, veteran players may not exactly be thrilled to find Barbara on the Event Banners. Not only is the idol of Mondstadt available through the Masterless Starglitter shop, but she has been a steady regular on the Event Banners since launch. On the other hand, Shikanoin Heizou should be welcomed by just about everyone, as the 4-Star from Inazuma hasn’t been featured since Version 3.7.
Curiously, this marks the first time that Lyney will feature on Genshin Impact‘s Event Banners without his sister, as Lynette will likely be held back until Arlecchino’s rerun in 2025. While Ororon remains the most desirable 4-Star character in the entire lineup, Genshin Impact players will benefit from Fischl and her Constellations, especially if they come attached with two of the most popular Genshin Impact characters. Version 5.2 is set to launch on November 20, 2024.
