All theGenshin Impact5.4 5-star character banners have been leaked, both in Phase 1 and Phase 2.Version 5.4 is the next patch for HoYoverse’s action RPG. Currently, the game is in the first half of Version 5.3, a massive patch that brought forth the final main story quests set in the region of Natlan, as well as the introduction of four new playable characters. This is the update that made Citlali and Mavuika playable and finally unlocked thePyro Traveler inGenshin Impact. The fourth new unit is Lan Yan, a 4-star Anemo character from Liyue.
Lan Yan’s release is directly connected to the Lantern Rite Festival which will take place in Version 5.3. In comparison, it’s expected that Version 5.4 will be a much smaller update.The beta tests for Version 5.4 have already started and, with them, a lot of information about its contents is being shared. This includes rumors about an Inazuma-focused event that will offer players a new F2P (free-to-play) weapon as well as a possiblebattle tower event inGenshin Impact5.4. In addition to this, one new playable character has been officially confirmed for the update by the developer.
One New 5-Star Character Is Confirmed For Genshin Impact 5.4
Wriothesley May Finally Rerun
Previously featured in leaks and now confirmed by the developer,Yumemizuki Mizuki will be a new character added with Version 5.4. The confirmation came through a post made by HoYoverse on the officialGenshin Impactprofile on Bluesky. Other than being an Anemo character from Inazuma, the developer has not revealed much more information about Mizuki. However, leaks have not only confirmed her as a 5-star unit which means she should be featured in her own dedicated banner at some point during the next update, but also describedYumemizuki Mizuki’s kit inGenshin Impact5.4.
Genshin Impact May Have Just Extended Its Roadmap By A Full Year
A new destination on the Traveler’s journey may have just extended the roadmap for Genshin Impact by a full year, effectively postponing Snezhnaya.
Aside from Mizuki, the entire 5-star character banner structure for Version 5.4 has leaked, including the rerun units and the potential order in which the characters will be featured. According to a leak by HomDGCat, which was shared in a “Reliable” post onReddit, Mizuki will be accompanied by Wriothesley, Sigewinne, and Furina. From the structure featured in the leak, it seems likeMizuki and Wriothesley will appear in Phase 1 banners while Sigewinne and Furina will be featured in Phase 2 banners.Wriothesley’s rerun inGenshin Impact5.4had already been leaked, but this leak highlights the entire structure.
Leaked Phase 1 Character Banners In Genshin Impact 5.4
Mizuki Is Expected To Debut Alongside A Wriothesley Rerun
The Phase 1 banners should start with the debut of Yumemizuki Mizuki. The aforementioned leaked gameplay kit for her describes her as a 5-star Anemo unit who uses a catalyst in battle. According to the leaks, Mizuki is an Inazuman character whose main focus in combat is to help with secondary damage and increase the power of Swirl DMG against opponents. Furthermore,Mizuki can deal damage or heal allies through Snacks she drops after using her Elemental Burst. As seen in her leaked gameplay kit, registered byHoney Hunter World, Mizuki’s main stat inGenshin Impactis Elemental Mastery.
Genshin Impact 5.4 Leaks: Arlecchino May Get A Long-Needed Buff Months After Her Release
After nearly a year since her original release as a playable character, Arlecchino may receive a much-needed buff to her kit in Genshin Impact 5.4.
Overall, based on what has been leaked so far,it seems like Yumemizuki Mizuki will operate as an on-field sub-DPS and Swirl support character with some healing capabilities. At the moment, it’s unsure how her best builds will look like, especially because her kit is still heavily subject to change if the leaks are even accurate to begin with.
In general, Mizuki is expected to be a versatile multi-tool character, but it’s unknown if she will excel in each of her roles or if she will do all of them in a suboptimal manner.
Wriothesley inGenshin Impact, on the other hand, is having his very first rerun banner if the leaks are accurate.Since his debut back in Version 4.1, Wriothesley has not been featured in banners, thus making him impossible to obtain for anyone who missed his initial run. His rerun has long been requested and it seems like the wishes will finally be met with his leaked rerun in Version 5.4’s leaked Phase 1 banners. Wriothesley is a 5-star Cryo character who uses a catalyst, which enables him to regularly deal Cryo DMG with his Normal, Charged, and Plunging Attacks.
Genshin Impact 5.4 Leaks: How Many Primogems Are In Available In The Next Update
The estimated number of Primogems in Genshin Impact 5.4 has leaked and, compared to what was offered in Version 5.3, it’s a very disappointing amount.
Wriothesley operates as a main DPS in team comps who specializes in dealing damage through Normal Attacks. The Cryo character’s rotation consists of activating his Skill, which increases his interruption resistance but makes him consume HP when it’s over 50% to then increase his Normal Attacks’ DMG. Under 60% HP, Wriothesley can use his Charged Attack to deal extra damage and restore his own HP, making him capable of sustaining himself.Wriothesley’s kit is a well-tested one, and he is considered one of the best Cryo DPSalong with Ganyu inGenshin Impact.
Leaked Phase 2 Character Banners In Genshin Impact 5.4
Sigewinne & Furina Are Hydro Rerun Characters
The leaks show that Phase 2 banners will feature Sigewinne and Furina. Sigewinne is a 5-star Hydro character who uses a bow in combat. Her main role is that of a healer, though her C6 enables her to be used as a DPS. Overall, Sigewinne’s abilities all scale with her Max HP stat and, because of this, it’s fairly easy to optimize her performance. WhileSigewinne’s best build inGenshin Impactis easy to achieve,her effectiveness as a support is suboptimal, even when compared to some 4-star units.
Genshin Impact 5.4 Leaks: New Filter Could Agilize Character Builds
A new function for weapon filtering has been spotted in Genshin Impact 5.4 leaks, and its introduction should help players with character builds.
Furina is also a 5-star Hydro character, but she uses a sword. The avatar of the Hydro Archon, Furina is arguably the most versatile character in the game, and she excels in whatever role she is in.Furina can be a sub-DPS, a healer, and a DMG buffer for her allies. She can be somewhat tough to build, but she is still one of the most reliable characters to have across a variety of team comps. Once players figure out which ofFurina’s builds inGenshin Impactthey want to use, they should focus on it and enjoy the results.
If the leaks about the character banners in Version 5.4 are correct, then Wriothesley and Furina should be excellent reruns to invest in, especially if players don’t have these characters yet. Based on the leaks so far, Mizuki is looking like a skippable character, while Sigewinne has already proven herself somewhat unworthy of pulls simply because there are better options. For now, leaks should be considered with caution, as the structure of theGenshin Impact5.4 banners is still heavily subject to changes.
