Genshin fans are always eager to uncover details about upcoming characters. The latest hype in the Genshin Impact community revolves around Furina, the Hydro Archon of Fontaine, who is expected to make her debut in version 4.2 of the game. Leaked information about Furina's kit, skills, and constellations has been circulating online, shedding light on what players can expect from this highly anticipated character. In this article, we'll delve into Furina's skills, Elemental Burst, Constellations, and more.
Furina: The Hydro Archon's Vessel
Furina is a confirmed 5-star character and is set to be the vessel of Focalors, the Hydro Archon of Fontaine, the Nation of Justice. She was initially mentioned by name before the release of the region but made her appearance as an NPC in Version 4.0. Now, players eagerly await her arrival as a playable character in Genshin Impact 4.2.
Elemental Skill: Arkhe Alignment
Furina's Elemental Skill is a key aspect of her gameplay. It features two variations based on her Arkhe alignment: Ousia and Pneuma. When aligned with Ousia, her skill deals Hydro damage scaling with her Max HP. Additionally, it summons three Fontemer creatures that can attack opponents and consume the HP of allies with over 50% HP left, dealing bonus damage based on the number of affected allies.
Conversely, when Furina aligns with Pneuma, her skill summons entities that heal the active character based on her Max HP. This duality in her Elemental Skill sets the stage for strategic gameplay, allowing her to switch between dealing damage and providing healing support.
Elemental Burst: A Splash of Hydro
Furina's Elemental Burst unleashes a torrent of Hydro damage, again scaling with her Max HP. What makes this ability intriguing is its interaction with her team. When an ally's HP fluctuates, either through healing or damage, Furina gains a buff that increases damage and incoming healing for all teammates. This buff can stack up to a significant 450, making Furina a valuable support character with sub-DPS potential.
Constellations
Furina's Constellations elevate her power significantly:
C1: Automatically grants 150 stacks of her Elemental Burst buff and increases the cap by another 150.
C2: Furina's Elemental Skill inflicts Hydro damage, further boosted by 15% of her Max HP. It can either heal allies or deal damage to them, depending on her Arkhe alignment.
C3: Increases her Elemental Skill level by 3.
C4: Allows Furina to recover four Energy every five seconds when her Elemental Skill heals an active character or damages a foe.
C5: Increases her Elemental Burst level by 3.
C6: Amplifies the stack buffs from her Elemental Burst by 200% and boosts Furina's Max HP by 0.4% for each stack, up to 140%.
While Furina's kit and abilities look impressive, players should be aware that this information is based on leaks and may change upon her official release. As for materials needed for her ascension and talents, players should prepare accordingly. For players looking to pre-farm her materials, our guide has everything you need.
