A recent Genshin Impact leak unveils a new five-star Dendro DPS character slated for Version 5.0, coinciding with the introduction of the Natlan region following Fontaine's storyline conclusion. Natlan, the Pyro nation known for its warlike nature and ruled by the Pyro Archon, Murata (the God of War), promises a wealth of new content including characters, weapons, storylines, and environments.
Leaker Uncle K details this upcoming Dendro Claymore wielder, a unique combination for a five-star unit. Their kit centers around the Bloom and Burning elemental reactions; Bloom, triggered by Dendro and Hydro, creates explosive Dendro Cores, while Burning inflicts a damage-over-time (DoT) effect when Dendro and Pyro combine.
Community skepticism surrounds the reliance on the Burning reaction, generally considered weaker than other Dendro reactions. This contrasts with the upcoming four-star Dendro support, Emilie (Version 4.8), initially designed for Burning but later buffed for broader team compatibility.
While Natlan's Pyro Archon is confirmed for future inclusion, HoYoverse may unveil additional Natlan characters during the Version 4.8 Special Program (around July 5th). Further leaks point to Columbina, the Third Fatui Harbinger and a rumored Cryo user, as the Natlan arc's primary antagonist, with a potential release in 2025. The upcoming update promises significant additions to the Genshin Impact universe.
