The Windblume Festival, which is a celebration of romance and passion, will also feature three mini-games that support single-player and cooperative modes. These new games are Bullseye Balloons, Floral Freefall and Ballads of Breeze.
There will be four levels of difficulty for each game, and players will earn rewards and tickets to the Festive Tour for participating. These tickets can be redeemed at the Event Shop for Talent Level-Up Materials and two new exclusive devices – the Windblume Festival Commemorative Balloon and the Windsong Lyre.The Peculiar Wonderland will also be available and offers a series of more difficult challenges that make players face three random challenge scenarios. Upon completing this activity, players will receive Peculiar Collab coupons that can be redeemed for Weapon Ascension Materials and a brand new 4-star bow, the Windblume Ode.
There will also be a new playable 4-star character called Rosaria “Thorny Benevolence”. Rosaria is “a sister to the Church of Favonius that players may have already encountered during their adventures with Albedo in Dragonspine. Having a Cryo Vision, Rosaria is a powerful pole weapon carrier with an Elemental Skill that allows her to instantly switch back from her enemy, piercing and slicing them to deal Cryo damage. Her Elemental Blast allows her to strike with a powerful blow, inflicting massive Cryo damage and summoning a cold Ice Spear that deals continuous Cryo damage to nearby enemies. “Finally, this new update will increase the limit of the original resin from 120 to 160 and allow travelers to keep up to five condensed resins in their stock. Travelers will also have the option of lowering their World Level to “better serve their needs in single player and cooperative mode”.
