Genshin Impact Version 5.6: Paralogism is just around the corner! Having introduced Escoffier and her abilities, the developers have turned their attention to the other new character: Ifa. This 4-star Anemo Catalyst will debut alongside Escoffier in V5.6 Phase I.
“Although he’s never counted them before, the scars all over Ifa’s body tell the story of many a patient’s struggles. He can’t bring himself to blame the scrabbling claws of the sick and injured… But enemies are a different matter altogether.”
Ifa soars into battle alongside his Qucusaurus companion, Cacucu. This skilled sauro-vet can rain Tonicshots on his foes while healing teammates, and summon a wind current that pulls in enemies to control the battlefield. While in the Nightsoul’s Blessing state, Ifa boosts Swirl and Electro-Charged DMG based on the party’s Nightsoul Points.
With his sharp medical instincts, Ifa can also automatically heal the active character when their HP falls below a certain threshold, ensuring his team stays healthy and strong in the heat of battle.
Genshin Impact – Version 5.6 Banners Feature:
- Phase I: Escoffier (5-star Cryo Polearm) & Navia (5-star Geo Claymore); Ifa (4-star Anemo Catalyst), Ororon (4-star Electro Bow), Layla (4-star Cryo Sword);
- Phase II: Raiden Shogun (5-star Electro Polearm) & Kinich (5-star Dendro Claymore).
- Chronicled Wish: Inazuma, featuring a number of Inazuman 5-stars and their Signature weapons. Chiori also makes her surprising appearance here.
Escoffier’s combat style blends culinary flair with elemental power. Her Elemental Skill allows her to summon the All-Spectrum Multi-Use Cooking Mek, which can either stay in place to absorb Elemental Attacks and prepare food items, or follow the active character to serve up continuous blasts of Cryo DMG. Beyond dishing out damage, Escoffier also brings reliable support to the table. Her Elemental Burst heals allies, and both her Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst reduce enemies’ Hydro and Cryo RES, an effect that strengthens with more Hydro or Cryo teammates.
