Enhancements to Genshin Impact: New Wood Purchasing Options in the 5.2 Update
The anticipated 5.2 update for Genshin Impact introduces a user-friendly feature within the Serenitea Pot’s Realm Depot. Players can now purchase wood directly, a significant improvement aimed at simplifying the crafting of furnishings and structures throughout the game.
How to Access Wood in Genshin Impact
To unlock the ability to purchase wood, players must first collect it within the game. For example, Pine Wood is frequently found in the regions of Mondstadt and Liyue. If you’ve harvested these trees, you may notice this wood type readily available in the Realm Depot. Conversely, rarer woods, such as Yumemiru Wood, are exclusive to Inazuma’s Narukami Island, meaning you’ll need to travel there to access and collect this resource before it becomes available for purchase.
A Glimpse of the Realm Depot Design
An official image details the new Wood section in the Serenitea Pot Realm Depot. Players should note that the store will refresh periodically, with a limit of ten wood pieces available for purchase each time, encouraging thoughtful resource management and exploration.
Real-World Application: Crafting with the New Wood System
To illustrate the practical benefits of this update, consider the crafting of the Red Cedar Curio Stand. This interior furnishing requires six Red Dyes and twelve Fragrant Cedar Woods. If you have previously gathered Fragrant Cedar Wood while exploring Mondstadt, the Realm Depot will allow you to purchase any additional pieces needed to complete this item, thus enhancing your crafting experience.
Past and Future Quality of Life Improvements
This feature marks the continuation of quality-of-life alterations for the Serenitea Pot, following enhancements made in April 2024, which included streamlined one-click crafting options. These updates are indicative of HoYoVerse’s commitment to improving player experiences in Genshin Impact.
Availability Across Platforms
Genshin Impact is playable on various platforms including PS4, PS5, PC, and mobile devices. Additionally, the Xbox Series X version is slated for release on November 20, 2024, coinciding with the arrival of the 5.2 update, providing all players with access to these exciting new features.
