What are you considering regular? This looks very underwatered / dried out.

i water it every 4 days. the soil is moist but the leaves keep drying out like this

Might be overwatering or root rot. Sounds like you water it a lot - you should let soil dry out before waterings. I would cut dead leaves so it can save its energy growing new healthy ones

It really looks like low humidity is the culprit. My first calathea looked like this till I made some changes. Spraying once a day isn’t enough to increase humidity, and humidity trays only do so much. The best way is to get a humidifier or put it in the bathroom.

They can be finicky about the type of water used also. They don’t always like tap water.
