Developer HoYoverse is back with the details of Genshin Impact – Version 7.1 Phase I, including character & weapon banners and the upcoming events. Let’s check them out!
For those who want to play with the new Stellar reactions, you’re in luck. The newly-introduced characters, Vesna and Vodyanitsa, both continue expanding the possibilities when it comes to the new Elemental reactions and the involvement of the old buffed characters.
Genshin Impact – Version 7.1 Phase I Banners Feature:
- 5-star characters: Vodyanitsa (Hydro Catalyst) & Vesna (Anemo Sword);
- 4-star characters: Diona (Cryo Bow), Chongyun (Cryo Claymore), Faruzan (Anemo Bow);
- 5-star weapons: Beyond the Chrysalis (Sword) and Hymn of the Maelstrom (Catalyst)
- 4-star weapons: New Bough (Sword), Winter’s Heavy Heart (Catalyst), and Breezeborne Refrain (Bow), Favonius Greatsword (Claymore) and Dragon’s Bane (Polearm)
Vesna joins the roster as a 5-star Anemo Sword wielder. In combat, she can convert Cryo Swirl reactions into Stellar Swirl reactions. Using her Elemental Skill and other abilities, Vesna can summon Spirit Blades and gain a certain amount of “Sword Essence.”
She can then consume “Sword Essence” with a special Elemental Skill to command the Spirit Blades to strike enemies. When they attack near a Stellar Vortex, their attacks are treated as Stellar Swirl reaction DMG. Her Elemental Burst summons another wave of Spirit Blades to deal AoE Anemo DMG while restoring “Sword Essence.” Vesna also offers a unique way to explore the open world. As a Vila, she is able to take flight during exploration.
Vodyanitsa is the Prima Donna of Snezhnograd’s Korolevskiy Troupe, as well as a kind-hearted Water Imp and 5-star Hydro Catalyst wielder. In combat, she can transform into her Water Imp form and sustain her song through her Elemental Skill, continuously healing the active character, reducing enemies’ Hydro and Cryo RES, and boosting the active character’s ATK.
In this form, she can also move swiftly through the water. Her song further empowers Stellar Vortices, reducing enemies’ Anemo RES and increasing Stellar Swirl reaction DMG. Her Elemental Burst carries her voice across the battlefield, dealing AoE Hydro DMG. While exploring the open world, Vodyanitsa can remain in her Water Imp form and move freely even outside the water.
