Travelers across Teyvat are buzzing like Electro Cicins about Natlan's upcoming Nightsoul Burst mechanic. Leaks suggest this fiery new system will shake up team-building strategies harder than a Pyro Abyss Mage's spin attack. Following Fontaine's Bond of Life mechanic that turned healers into damage amplifiers, Natlan's approach seems to prioritize elemental aggression and team synergy – perfect for a region obsessed with war dances and volcanic showdowns.
