New Characters
Columbina Hyposelenia - 5-star Hydro Catalyst
| Element | Hydro |
|---|---|
| Weapon | Catalyst |
| Description |
|---|
| Born in Nod-Krai, Columbina is the sole living Moon Maiden in Teyvat after the fall of the other three Moons. Her powers are drawn from a Moon "beyond the sky", and she's determined to return there, to her "home". |
| Kit |
| - When added to a party, Columbina converts Electro-charged, Bloom and Hydro Crystallize reactions triggered by any party member to their Lunar-reaction equivalent. - Her Skill summons a Gravity Ripple, which deals continuous AoE Hydro DMG. Lunar Reactions build up Gravity for the ripple, and once fully charged, it performs a coodinated attack based on the type of Lunar Reaction triggered. - Her Burst enhances the DMG dealt by Lunar Reactions while the Lunar Domain is active. - Her passive talent revives a fallen party member when you're in Nod-Krai. |
Zibai - 5-star Geo Sword
| Element | Geo |
|---|---|
| Weapon | Sword |
| Description |
|---|
| The "White Horse" Adepti from antiquity who stood beside Zhongli during the Archon War. She is a prominent figure in Liyue Legend and has ties to the Moons and its maidens, as indicated by the book "Moonlit Bamboo Forest". |
| Kit |
| - Zibai converts Hydro-Crystallize into Lunar-Crystallize, summoning three Moondrifts in the nearby area. - She collects a unique type of energy after using her Skill the first time in order to enter a special state, which will then charge her special Skill that deals Geo and Lunar-Crystallize DMG. - Zibai accumulates energy while using Normal Attacks when her state is active. - Her Burst also deals Lunar-Crystallize DMG. |
Illuga - 4-star Geo Polearm
| Element | Geo |
|---|---|
| Weapon | Polearm |
| Description |
|---|
| A Lightkeeper stationed at Piramida, the Lightkeepers' Headquarters, and a close associate of Flins. He is the leader of the Nightmare Orioles, the investigation squad, and is the youngest member of the faction to achieve such. |
| Kit |
| - Illuga buffs his teammates' Geo and Lunar-Crystallize DMG with his Burst. This buff is enhanced when there are more Hydro or Geo characters in the party. - After using his Burst, Illuga gains a stack of "Nightingale's Song". These stacks will initially buff Geo DMG, but if a Lunar-Crystallize reaction is triggered, the increase will be stronger. |
