Genshin Impact is nearing its latest update in a week or so, and during their special program livestream, they announced a number of awesome things coming your way. Here's what you need to know;
New Characters
There were 2 new playable characters announced in the livestream, Dehya and Mika. Though not the most sought out characters but still worth talking about.
Dehya
She will be the new 5- star Claymore character introduced as an standalone banner in the 3.5 update. The underwhelming part of her release is that she will join Tighnari and the others in the standard banner so she loses her exclusivity after her launch period.
Her kit in itself seems pretty normal, with her elemental skill providing off-field pyro damage to her teammates and she disposes her claymore to fight with her bare hands during her elemental burst which deals pyro damage.
She does bring a lot of versatility to the table as a sub-dps and her kit might not seem as exciting to others.
Dehya will be arriving in the first phase of banners alongside Cyno's first ever rerun banner which is questionable to say the least. But then again, his debut was placed during an awkward timing, sandwiched between 2 popular archons, Zhongli and Nahida.
Mika
With much changes to the game, physical damage is rarely seen to be a must-have to any team composition which is understandable. But with the release of Mika, we can look forward to seeing the META shift around.
Just like Gorou is to Geo teams and Faruzan is to Anemo setups, Mika will provide a significant benefit for physical damage teams. Although the only reliable candidate as a DPS in this field is Eula, Mika pretty much compliments her kit really well.
Being a Healer/Buffer, Mika can provide ATK Speed and Physical Damage Bonus % with the use of his elemental skill, and his elemental burst provides a team-wide heal on top of lifesteal during the duration of it.
What can potentially make Mika broken is his C6 trait where his elemental skill will also provide his team with a 60% Physical Crit Damage buff which can be huge for a Eula team setup.
Mika will be available in the second phase banner as a 4 star unit. To think that it will be a good fit to pair him up with Eula as a rerun, but instead he will be in company with Ayaka's and Shenhe's banners

In conjunction with a new archon quest, every player will be able to claim 1 intertwined fate per archon quest they have completed in the past. This will be a permanent reward system implemented into the game.
