The highly anticipated upcoming Genshin Impact 4.0 update will bring alongside it the new characters Lyney and Lynette. The duo is expected to be a part of the same banner, with the former being a 5-star character while the latter is a 4-star character.
Over the past few weeks, we’ve seen plenty of leaks on the internet involving Genshin Impact 4.0 and the new characters Lyney and Lynette.
In this article, we take a look at the upcoming 4-star character Lynette, its abilities, constellations, and everything else you need to know about her.
Genshin Impact 4.0 Leaks: New Character Lynette
Unlike her older brother, who refers to himself as “the greatest magician in all Teyvat”, Lynette is a low-profile Magician’s Assistant in the land. She’s an Anemo character with her C6 allowing her to infuse weapon damage with Anemo.
Genshin Impact Lynette Abilities
Prominent Genshin Impact leaker Mero has already shed light on the detailed abilities of Lynentte. Let’s take a look at what we know so far from Genshin Impact 4.0 leaks, including Lynette’s Normal Attack, Elemental Skill, and Elemental Burst.
Normal Attack: Rapid Ritesword
- Normal Attack: Rapid Ritesword
- Normal Attack: Performs up to 4 rapid strikes.
- Charged Attack: Consumes a certain amount of Stamina to unleash 2 rapid sword strikes.
- Plunging Attack: Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground below, damaging opponents along the path and dealing AoE DMG upon impact.
Elemental Skill: Enigmatic Feint
Lynette flicks her mantle and executes an Enigma Thrust, dealing Anemo DMG. When the Enigma Thrust hits an opponent, it will restore Lynette’s HP based on her Max HP, and in the 4s afterward, she will lose a certain amount of HP per second. Based on whether you press or hold this ability, she will use Enigma Thrust differently.
- Press: Lynette swiftly uses an Enigma Thrust.
- Hold: Lynette will enter a high-speed Pilfering Shadow state and apply Shadowsign to a nearby opponent. When this high-speed state ends, Lynette will unleash her Enigma Thrust. If there is an opponent with Shadowsign applied to them nearby, Lynette will approach them in a flash before using Enigma Thrust.
A maximum of 1 opponent can have Shadowsign at any one time. When this opponent gets too far from Lynette, the Shadowsign will be canceled.
Fundamental Force: Ousia
At specific intervals, Lynette will unleash a Surging Blade when she uses EnigmaThrust, dealing Ousia-aligned Anemo DMG.
Elemental Burst
Lynette raises her mantle high, dealing AoE Anemo DMG, using skillful sleight of hand to make a giant Bogglecat Box appear!
Bogglecat Box
- Taunts nearby opponents, attracting their attacks.
- Deals Anemo DMG to nearby opponents at intervals.
- When the Bogglecat Box comes into contact with Hydro/Pyro/Cryo/Electro, it will gain the corresponding element and additionally fire Vivid Shots that will deal DMG from that element at intervals. Elemental Absorption of this kind will only occur once during this ability’s duration.
Genshin Impact Lynette Constellations
- Level 1 — A Cold Blade Like a Shadow: When Enigmatic Feint’s Enigma Thrust hits an opponent with Shadowsign, a vortex will be created at that opponent’s position that will pull nearby opponents in.
- Level 2 — Endless Mysteries: Whenever the Bogglecat Box summoned by Magic Trick: Astonishing Shift fires a Vivid Shot, it will fire an extra Vivid Shot.
- Level 3 — Cognition-Inverting Gaze: Increases the Level of Magic Trick: Astonishing Shift by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
- Level 4 — Tacit Coordination: Increases Enigmatic Feint’s charges by 1.5.
- Level 5 — Obscuring Ambiguity: Increases the Level of Enigmatic Feint by 3. Maximum upgrade level is 15.
- Level 6 — Intent-Identifying Insight: When Lynette uses Enigmatic Feint’s Enigma Thrust, she will gain an Anemo Infusion and 20% Anemo DMG Bonus for 6s.
