New characters: Nahida and Layla

Nahida in Genshin Impact version 3.2
Nahida is the clear prize this update for character collectors.
Genshin Impact Version 3.2 also comes with two new characters, both earnable via wish banners during the update's run time.

The first is Nahida, the Dendro Archon and catalyst user. Nahida'selemental skill can be tapped or held for aiming mode. Holding marks enemies, and when marked enemies are hit with the skill, a massive chained damage effect hits all marked enemies for loads of damage. Nahida's Elemental skill can also grab collectable materials out in the world, which sould make collecting resources much easier.

As for her elemental burst, Nahida expands a special field around her. This provides a series of buffs to Nahida’s powers depending on the elemental alignment of your party, so you'll need to build your team carefully if you want to make the most out of the character.

Then you've got Layla, a four-star Cryo sword user who makes up a major part of this udpate.

Layla's elemental skill creates a shield around you active character. This shield generates night stars over time. When you have four stars, they shoot out and hit nearby enemies. Each time a star is created, the shield strength is increased too, making it a great mix of offence and defence.

As for Layla's elemental burst, you put out a turret, which shoots out stars at enemies whenever you generate a star using the elemental skill shield. When this is places down and the shield is up, you'll be showing down additional damage on enemies you're fighting.
