Genshin Impact 6.6 Update Patch Leaks – Everything You Need To Know

With the release of the beta for Genshin Impact version 6.6, players will now be able to have a small glimpse into what this new patch of updates from version 6.6 onwards have in store for them in terms of map, contents and characters, thanks to the various leaked information from trusted sources.

Therefore, let’s have a good look into the leaked information for Genshin Impact version 6.6. Please keep in mind that since this is leaked information, despite being from a trusted source, this information is subject to change and can be greatly altered when the official release of the character is out, so take this information with a grain of salt. 

Brand New Story & Maps

Alongside the release of a brand new Update patch for the game, a brand new main story quest will also be released. This time the final main story chapter for Genshin Impact Luna chapters – Luna VII will be released, featuring a return of characters back to Sumeru to deal with the impending disaster surrounding the Irminsul.

Alongside this brand new mains story quest, an entirely brand new boss enemy will also be making an appearance and will become a new weekly boss for players to challenge in the form of Dottore II.

Brand New Characters

Of course, the main attraction to the Genshin Impact version 6.6 are the leaks regarding the upcoming playable characters and we now have information on 3 different characters: the 5-Star Cryo Polearm user Lohen, The 5-Star Pyro Catalyst user Nicole and the 4-Star Anemo Catalyst user Prune.

Lohen is an upcoming 5-Star Cryo character that wields a polearm as his main weapon. He serves as a powerful Cryo on field DPS, capable of dealing powerful Cryo damage to enemies after making use of other characters’s off-field abilities to fuel his unique effect. When he is on field, by using his Elemental Skill, Lohen can enter a special state, allowing him to accumulate a special Joy effect whenever he attacks enemies with his normal and charge attacks. During this accumulation process, whenever an ally deals attacks to enemies, Lohen will also accumulate a special stack effect that boosts the damage output of his Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst. Upon accumulating enough Joy effect stacks, Lohen can unleash a special Cryo Elemental Skill towards enemies, dealing more damage the more special stacks he has accumulated thanks to allies attacks.

Lohen serves mainly as a straight forward on field Cryo and Physical DPS character, capable of alternating between dealing massive amounts of Physical damage to enemies with his normal and charge attacks and dealing Cryo damage to enemies with his Elemental Skill and Elemental Burst while taking advantage of allies’ off field attacks to trigger different types of elemental reactions to deal even more damage.

Nicole is an upcoming 5-Star Pyro character that wields catalyst as her main weapon type. Nicole’s skill kit makes her a strong off-field Sub DPS and Support that is capable of both dealing Elemental damage off-field to enemies and supplying the active character on field with powerful damage and sustain buffs. Nicole’s main gimmick lies in her Elemental Skill, which grants allies a special Grace of Kenosis effect and a shield proportional to her attack stack. While Grace of Kenosis is in effect, the ally with this effect will have their attack stat increased based on Nicole’ attack stat and after they have stayed on field for more than 3s, this Grace of Kenosis effect will evolve into Guidance of Theosis, granting the ally an additional 300 attack stat. This effect will be reverted if the ally leaves the field. 

After using her Elemental Burst, Nicole will deal an instance of Pyro damage to enemies and switch a special mode. During this mode, she will supplement the attacks of the on field allies with occasional off-field elemental attacks, with these attacks’ elements being changed depending on the active on-field character, allowing players to apply different types of Elemental Marks on enemies based on which character they have on-field while Nicole is in this state. This helps to set up various different effects and elemental reactions for different teamcomps but is relatively difficult to use if players are not used to it.

Prune is an upcoming 4-Star Character of the Anemo Element. She wields a catalyst as her main weapon type and serves as mainly an off-field Swirl enabler with her decently easy to use skill kit. Prune’s elemental skill allows her to deal Anemo damage to enemies and if the Skill triggered a Swirl Elemental Reaction, her next Elemental Skill will be enhanced, being infused with the element that triggered Swirl previously and deal enhanced Anemo and Swirl damage to enemies when used. Her Elemental Burst allows her to deal Anemo damage to enemies, then enter a special mode. During this special mode, Prune will constantly deal Anemo damage to enemies by surrounding the active character on field, allowing her to deal off-field damage and triggering Swirl Elemental Reactions alongside the active character’s attacks. Additionally, her talent also allow her to boost the overall damage dealt by the active character’s normal attacks, charge attacks, elemental skill and elemental burst.
