The official Genshin Impact Twitter account has revealed the two weapons that will arrive in the upcoming update. The five-star Catalyst Kagura’s Verity will be the signature weapon for therecently confirmedGenshin Impactcharacter Yae Mikoand it has the following stats:
The second weapon is named Oathsworn Eye, and it’s confirmed to be a four-star weapon. A recent tweet by a credible leaker named Ubatcha1 has revealed that the weapon will apparently be obtainable for free by completing a couple of quests in theupcomingGenshin Impactupdate 2.5. The new weapon has the following stats:
Oathsworn Eye could be a great choice for DPS Catalyst characters, which include Ningguang, Klee, Mona, or the recently announced Yae Miko. Even though miHoYo revealed her signature five-star weapon, Oathsworn Eye could still be a great choice for players who won’tspend their Primogems on the weapon banner. The weapon’s passive has led many players to believe that this weapon is a great choice for Yae considering that she apparently has Energy Recharge problems.
Yae Miko’s secondary stat is Crit rate which means that she will most likely be astrong Genshin Impact DPS character. She is also confirmed to be an Electro Vision holder which is usual for Inazuma characters. Yae’s Elemental Skill allows her to move rapidly leaving behind stacks of “Lethal Sakura” that periodically deal damage to one nearby enemy target. This type of skill means that she could also be a great fit for the sub-DPS role. Yae’s elemental burst will cause lightning and thunder dealing AoE electro damage.
Genshin Impactis now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
