What should I check before playing after a Genshin Impact patch?

Guide Q&A

Check the current build/status notice first. After a game update, wait for a compatible build, update the loader, then verify the setup in single-player before returning to co-op.

If anything behaves unexpectedly, stop and review the status notes rather than assuming the old setup still applies. The checklist covers the patch-day routine in more detail.

Testing after the update before co-op is the part I used to skip. Now I check the build note and run a quick bot lobby.

Guide answer

Agree. If the build/status has not caught up, wait. A checklist is better than guessing.
