New Character: Sandrone

Sandrone is a 5-star Cryo claymore character and the first main DPS for the new Superconduct reaction, specializing in the Stellar-Conduct reaction, which enhances Superconduct damage.

Genshin Impact Sandrone

By holding her Charged Attack, Sandrone can summon an autonomous mechanism named "Fagio" to assist in combat, firing a continuous laser beam. If the beam exceeds a certain duration, it overloads and reduces damage. This overload timer can be refreshed by using her Elemental Skill, allowing her to continue unleashing full-power Charged Attacks. Her Elemental Burst bombards enemies ahead with artillery fire and beams.

Genshin Sandrone Skills

When Sandrone is in the party, she activates the team's Stellar-Conduct mechanism. Triggering a Cryo-Electro reaction generates a Polestar Field, which reduces the Physical DMG of enemies within the field and increases the Stellar-Conduct reaction damage, as well as Cryo and Electro damage, dealt by characters within the field.

Elemental Skill provides a hovering function, allowing for short-distance traversal.

 

Genshin Sandrone Elemental Skill

 

When claiming daily rewards from Katheryne, she will receive additional refreshment rewards.

7 Character Enhancements

In the new version, Witch B will deliver the "Witch's Revelation." Characters who receive this revelation will be enhanced, including Qiqi, Yae Miko, Diona, Beidou, Cyno, Wriothesley, and Yumemizuki Mizuki, gaining abilities related to Stellar reactions. Additionally, in Version "Luna VIII," the enhanced characters will appear on the "Lightrace Wish Banner," sharing the wish guarantee count with the "Chronicled Wish."

Genshin Impact Luna VIII Witch's Revelation
  1. Wriothesley: Within the Polestar Field, he can perform Charged Attacks more frequently to restore HP, enabling more enhanced Normal Attacks. Some of his attacks are considered Stellar-Conduct reaction damage.
  2. Yae Miko: Sesshou Sakura's duration is extended, and casting her Elemental Burst no longer destroys them. Within the Polestar Field, Sesshou Sakura can deal additional lightning strike damage considered as Stellar-Conduct.
  3. Qiqi: Within the Polestar Field, her Elemental Skill provides the team with a Stellar-Conduct reaction damage bonus and deals additional damage in coordination with the on-field character.
  4. Cyno: His Elemental Skill grants a brief transformation state. Within the Polestar Field, he can quickly unleash a burst of damage in a short time, with some attacks considered as Stellar-Conduct.
  5. Diona: After the enhancement, Diona can join Stellar-Conduct teams, providing Cryo damage coordination without relying on her Elemental Burst. At C6, her Elemental Burst originally granted 200 Elemental Mastery; now it additionally increases the Stellar-Conduct reaction damage dealt by the on-field character.
  6. Yumemizuki Mizuki: Increases the entire team's Elemental Mastery, provides resistance reduction at C2, and grants a significant personal damage boost.
  7. Beidou: Her Elemental Skill parry has a higher margin for error and a shorter cooldown. At C6, the original 15% Electro RES reduction is now changed to Electro and Cryo RES reduction plus an Elemental Mastery bonus.

New Weapon: A Teaspoon of Transcendence

Base ATK: 674

CRIT DMG: 44.1%

 

Genshin Impact A Teaspoon of Transcendence

 

Weapon Skill: Equipping character's ATK +28%. Within 5 seconds after hitting an enemy with a Charged Attack, Stellar-Conduct reaction DMG is increased by 16%. Max 3 stacks. Can stack once every 0.2 seconds.

New Map: The Moon

The new map consists of The Eye of Ibni-Belum, Ungien's Circle, Lunar Sea, and the Dark side of the moon. Most areas on the moon are covered in disordered Archaeolune Energy. Staying within these areas will accumulate fatigue; when fatigue reaches its peak, the character will become incapacitated and collapse.

Genshin Impact The Moon

Three types of gravitational states exist on the moon: Low Gravity State, Weightlessness, and Overweight State. In a Low Gravity State, jumping height is increased, falling speed is reduced, and less fall damage is taken. In Weightlessness, the body feels lighter, and inertia must be accounted for when moving. In an Overweight State, any movement becomes very difficult!

Genshin Impact Ungien's Circle

Some scenes on the moon mention sci-fi terms such as "celestial weapon," "broken space station," and "previous civilization," along with devices resembling space elevators. It is speculated that these were likely built by the dragon race.

New Outfits Released: Citlali and Charlotte

Citlali: Whispers of Stars and Smoke

Genshin Impact Citlali Whispers of Stars and Smoke

One of the biggest surprises in this special program was the official announcement of Citlali's new exclusive outfit, "Whispers of Stars and Smoke," making it one of the core highlights of Version "Luna VIII."

Departing from her usual mature and composed aura, this new skin features a gentle pink color scheme, paired with lively twin tails and an exquisite bow design, exuding a vibrant youthful girl vibe.

Completely different from the mature "Granny" presence players are familiar with, this cozy home-style outfit perfectly showcases Citlali's relaxed and gentle daily side. The stark contrast is refreshing and truly eye-catching.

Charlotte: Hurlock Variations

Snezhnaya "Easter Egg"

At the end of the special program, we were treated to a Snezhnaya preview short, which appeared to show the Snezhnaya capital city, packed with information. From the preview, we can see a moving train, a massive Snezhnayan castle, and snow-covered roads. Childe, Pierro, Sandrone, Pantalone, Arlecchino, and Pulcinella all make appearances. Although the Cryo Archon herself was not shown, her voice was heard.

Genshin Impact Snezhnaya

Beyond the new map footage, the clothing of Snezhnayan people is also very interesting. Given the region's cold climate, it's only natural that they bundle up tightly. The image below also shows a frozen monster and a rabbit-like creature, which are likely new Snezhnayan enemies.

Genshin Impact Snezhnaya Enemy

The Snezhnaya map is dominated by mountainous terrain, accompanied by specific blizzard environments. Travelers will also have a brand-new Descender gameplay mechanic. The PV also showed gameplay footage of the Cryo Traveler's skills, demonstrating a conversion reaction ability. The new gameplay also includes using a gun to shoot, which looks incredibly cool. This new gameplay should be very interesting.

Genshin Impact Snezhnaya
