Genshin Impact’s five-star unitsand their signature weapons are always featured at the same time in the game’s limited character and weapon banners. Even though Clorinde, Sigewinne, and Sethos are yet to officially join the live servers, recent leaks have already revealed more details about a new character named Emilie, who will be joining the playable roster in Version 4.8. When it comes to her rarity, rumors claim that she will be a new five-star character that uses a polearm. A newpost on theGenshin ImpactLeaks subreddithas given more details about Emilie’s signature polearm.
The weapon leaks give more credibility to previous rumors claiming that Emilie will be a newsub-DPS character inGenshin Impactwhose kit revolves around Burning. This elemental reaction can be triggered by combining Pyro and Dendro. It applies an AoE effect that deals Pyro damage over time. Even though Burning has been the only Dendro elemental reaction in the game since its release, not many characters have their kits revolve around its effect.
Genshin Impact Version 4.8 Expectations
Genshin ImpactVersion 4.8is expected to be the last update before the release of the long-awaited Natlan region in Version 5.0. Going by the game’s usual release pattern, players can expect Natlan to drop in late August or early September. Each update before the release of a new region has featured a Summer event, so it won’t come as a surprise if HoYoverse continues with the same pattern.
Some players expect to see a Natlan character before the official release, similar to Charlotte, who made her first in-game appearance a couple of months before Fontaine arrived. Apart fromGenshin Impact’s Pyro Archon Murata, the character that most leakers have mentioned is Xbalanque, and he seems to be the prime candidate to introduce the Traveler to Natlan.
