Genshin Impact upcoming 6.0 characters signal shift in game mechanics with Lunar reactions
Leaked character kits indicate that Version 6.0 of Genshin Impact will usher in a new era of gameplay with the introduction of Flins and Lauma, and a wave of Lunar reaction mechanics tied to the Nod‑Krai region in Snezhnaya. According to beta leaks via Honey Hunter World, Flins is a 5‑star Electro polearm user whose kit enables Electro Normal and Charged Attacks that trigger Lunar‑Charged reactions when paired with Hydro allies. A new passive talent called Moonsign adjusts effects based on team composition, with Ascendant Gleam enhancing Lunar‑Charged damage. Lauma is introduced as a 5‑star Dendro catalyst user whose power primarily scales with Elemental Mastery. Her kit centres around Lunar‑Bloom, a reaction variant likely exclusive to Nod‑Krai characters that can land CRIT hits. Her passive talent applies different buff stacks depending on the current Moonsign, increasing party-wide DPS. Both characters expand on the Lunar‑Charged mechanic first introduced with Epic Moon android Ineffa in Version 5.8, solidifying Lunar reaction variants as a Nod‑Krai signature. Another beta leak suggests Hydro character Aino will help increase the Moonsign level, making her a strong free‑to‑play pairing for Flins. This shift introduces the concept of regional synergy, similar to the Nightsoul mechanics used by Natlan characters, but specific to Nod‑Krai team compositions. Players are watching closely, as existing characters may become outclassed if Lunar variants prove stronger. Version 6.0 will also bring the new Nod‑Krai region of Nod‑Krai and expand the storyline. As more information emerges from the beta, players await confirmation of these shifts ahead of the update's expected release later in 2025.
