Zibai exploration ability

What do you guys think of zibai not having any exploration ability ? Especially those who currently have a natlan character as main how will you guys go back to normal after riding bikes flying in air skating on mountains and rivers to walking swimming climbing normally.

I myself have varesa as main I got her in this banner and love her thunder like Thick thighs so much. Also got xilonen 4 days ago and now she is in my main overworld team with varesa iansan chevreuse just for climbing sumeru mountains (I am doing aranara + sumeru archon quest ). I personally don't know how I will switch back to normal.

Why should we expect her to have one? (though I *was* a little surprised she didn't have a horse form similar to Lauma's deer form at least). Most of the characters since Natlan haven't had exploration abilities like that.

I was expecting her to have a chariot for exploration so was kinda disappointed

Durin has wings and doesn’t do anything with them. Don’t expect anything at this point.

KrzyDankus2026-01-08 18:22

this is 6.X, not 5.X, so no fun movement abilities

Why horse girl if no horse?

Why Cavalry captain if no Cavalry

Varka 2020

Now I’m imagining varka as Radahn from elden ring. 2 big great swords and a tiny little horse.

well it does make sense.
we all know what adding flying to maps that were not designed for flying has done to other games' exploration experience.
Natlan was designed with wide open areas to make the movement skills work for exploration, like how Ockanatlan was build very vertically for flying.

I haven't really felt the need to have Natlan characters in my team while playing Nod Krai, the map doesn't require fast movement or anything to get around.
Basically getting from point A to point B in Nod krai without movement skills doesn't feel like a slog, like it felt in Natlan without using the movement tech of characters or saurians.

I won't be going back to normal lol. Love Nod Krai characters, especially Flins but my exploration team is gonna be full Natlan until someone gets an ability that rivals them. The Varesa + Mavuika + Xilonen combo is just too OP.

LIGHTNING_CHAMP_2026-01-08 17:34

Fr natlan characters spoil you too much I was expecting zibai to have a chariot or horse type something for exploration

PolskiStalker2026-01-08 17:33

Winged dragon doesn't have exploration ability, so I'm not surprised it's the same for horse

AppUnwrapper12026-01-08 17:35

Asking this now, not with Durin or any of the other Nod Krai characters?

LIGHTNING_CHAMP_2026-01-08 17:38

I just started playing in the end of arlechhino banner so I am very new you can tell that by seeing that I am on sumeru archon quest. I just got to know about that natlan characters have unique exploration ability during very last of durin venti banner

KrimsonKurse2026-01-08 17:36

You mean like how Flins doesn't have anything but flower radar? Nefer just struts around in high heels? Why would it matter? Yeah, I have all the Natlan characters and exploration is a blast with them... but why would I need everyone to have some sort of mobility ability?

NikaLav_art2026-01-08 17:36

Why would she need that? Sure its a nice addition to some characters, but there is no need for every character to have exploration ability.
as the other comment said, its kinda wierd that she doesnt have some kind of horse capabilities but I dont find it as a big deal.

I have many natlan characters and still use zhongli most of the time.

AlaindeshoGT2026-01-08 17:42

It really does seems that those kind of OP abilities ended up with Natlan and there isn't going to be something similar anymore

katbelleinthedark2026-01-08 18:10

I never used any of the Natlan exploration abilities so it makes no difference to me.

HuTaosTwinTails2026-01-08 18:11

Why are you acting like Lauma, ineffa, columbina, Jahoda, nefer, etc haven't all released in between her and natlan and none of them have exploration gimmicks.

Honestly, good. I hated movement in natlan outside of Varesa.

Parking_Finding72692026-01-08 18:14

I like that they’re stopping with the OP exploration.
It kind of lost some of the immersion imo

Away_Information13422026-01-14 22:38

Yes I absolutely hate the company making OPTIONAL improvements for players. They should delete teleportation and give us a debuff that slows us down by 500% to truly immerse us in the long travel aspect of the game.

Grouchy_Gap452026-01-08 18:52

Just thank natlan haters for that bro. They really did their best for us to have such characters

DevolayS2026-01-08 19:33

I don't really care about exploration abilities tbh. I already have one exploration team that works good enough and I use it when I'm either clearing the map to 100% or farming some overworld mats. Chiori (for the permanent speed boost), Xianyun (for jumping and heal), Sayu or Lynette (for anemo resonance and running), and 4th spot for flex (usually a character that marks local specialties, Nahida for grabbing some annoying stuff with E, or Furina for waterwalking). I don't really feel like I need anything more there...

When I'm playing the story, I don't need to move fast, so exploration abilities don't matter to me.

When I'm farming leylines and such, I also don't care about exploration that much. Leylines are often close enough to each other, so running is not a problem.

Also, I have most of Natlan characters, except Kinich, and I never really used them for exploration. Even in Natlan, I usually chose to grab a saurian instead. Perhaps I'm missing out but I don't want to ruin exploration for myself. It's hard to come back once you experience the better stuff. Same reason why I limit myself to gaming on 1080p and 60 FPS.
