A video posted on theGenshin ImpactLeaks subreddit shows the gameplay animation for both of these characters. The gameplay leak confirmsprevious rumors about the Wandererwho has the ability to float in the air thanks to his Elemental Skill named Hanega: Fushi Kakka. While in this hovering state, his Normal and Charged have increased damage and AoE. to move during this state, Wanderer apparently uses a completely different stamina bar that runs on Sky-Dweller Points. Multiple replies in the comment section claim that they love the fact that Wanderer is able to ascend so high in the air which will become very useful for reaching special items like Oculus in the open world.
According to the video, Wanderer’s Elemental Burst will cause him to stomp on compressed Anemo energy causing a massive explosion that deals AoE Anemo damage. Previous kit leaks have revealed that if he uses his burst, Wanderer will end his hovering state meaning that this unique ability should probably be used at the end of his Elemental Skill effect. Both of his skills heavily indicated that theWanderer will be a newGenshin ImpactDPS character.
When it comes to his rarity, Wanderer is expected to be a five-star character while Faruzan is rumored to have a lower four-star rarity. While there is a lot of hype around the 6th Harbinger becoming a playable character, players also seem very satisfied withFaruzan’s overall kit. Faruzan’s Elemental Skill allows her to send out a polyhedron that deals Anemo damage and grants a buff to her next Charged Attack.
According to a couple of players, her Elemental Burst seems much more exciting, and it will most likely be the main part of her kit. Faruzan can create a “Dazzling Polyhedron” that moves in a triangular path dealing Anemo damage to targets underneath and providing a strong Anemo buff. She is expected to be anewGenshin Impactsupportwho can potentially be paired with the Wanderer.
