With every new update, Genshin Impact introduces characters for its players around the world. While explosive damage dealers like Childe arrived in the game with the 1.1 update, mysterious consultants like Zhongli made their way through the 1.2 patch. Following a similar approach, the upcoming 1.3 update for Genshin Impact will introduce a new Pyro character named Hu Tao.
Hu Tao is the 77th Director of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, a job which she took over at a very young age. The five-star polearm user will arrive in Genshin Impact alongside Xiao. Owing to her abilities relating to health regeneration at lower HP, she is an ideal main DPS for any party setup.
Pyro is arguably the most popular element in Genshin Impact; naturally, a lot of players will try to get their hands on Hu Tao. However, unlocking characters in miHoYo’s action RPG is just the tip of the iceberg. To unleash their true potential, you must ascend them and upgrade their talents, and Hu Tao is no exception.
