A Genshin Impact beta leak reveals seven different weapons that are expected to come to the game in the next major update.
Genshin impact weapons are the most important part of any character's build, which creates a lot of hype when a new weapon is announced. With the arrival of the highly anticipated Sumeru region, players expect a lot of changes in the game's combat due to the introduction of a new element.
Every update has its beta phase that almost always reveals most of the upcoming content. Recent beta leaks for Genshin impact Version 3.0 has revealed some new characters and weapons that should be part of the new update.
The addition of a new major region introduces Sumeru themed items and characters. A popular Genshin impact leaker called Dimbreath has revealed the names of the seven new weapons expected to appear in the next update. According to Dimbreath, Genshin impact Version 3.0 will only introduce one new five-star weapon called Hunter's Path, and it will have the following stats:
- Rarity: Five Star Weapon
- Weapon Type: Bow
- Base stat: 44-542
- Secondary statistic: criterion percentage (44.10%)
- Passive: Increases elemental damage by 12-24%. Hitting an opponent with a Charged Attack increases the damage by 160-320% of the character's Elemental Mastery. This effect lasts for 12 10-second Charged Attacks.
This will be the only five-star item and will likely serve as a signature weapon for the new five-star character Tighnari, who has been confirmed to appear on one of the update's banners. Tighnari is a strong DPS Genshin impact character who has a special mechanic on his Charged Attack, similar to Ganyu, which is probably the main reason the weapon's passive effect revolves around this type of attack. The remaining Sumeru themed weapons are:
- Forest Regalia (four star claymore)
- Moonpiercer (four star polearm)
- Timber Blade (four star sword)
- Fruit of Fulfillment (Four Star Catalyst)
- King's Squire (Four Star Arch)
The first four weapons have a similar passive effect that creates a special type of blade once an elemental reaction from Dendro is activated. This blade grants additional Elemental Mastery or Attack depending on the weapon. In the case of the bow, the weapon holder receives an Elemental Mastery buff after activating his elemental ability or burst.
The leaker mentioned an extra weapon that doesn't fit the Sumeru theme, and it's called Trawler. It's a four-star arc with Energy Recharge as a secondary stat, meaning it will most likely be a good choice for supporting characters like Fischl. The weapon has a passive effect that deals 80-160% AoE damage after the weapon holder uses an elemental ability.
Genshin impact is now available for PC, PS4, PS5 and mobile devices. A Switch version is in development.
