Genshin Impact Alhaitham banner release date speculation
Alhaitham’s banner is to set go live with the Genshin Impact 3.4 update on January 17.
Genshin Impact Alhaitham abilities
Normal attack – Abductive Reasoning
- Normal attack: Performs up to five rapid strikes
- Charged attack: Consumes stamina to unleash two rapid sword strikes
- Plunging attack: Plunges from mid-air to strike the ground, damaging enemies and dealing AoE damage
Elemental Skill – Universality: An Elaboration on Form
Rushes forward, dealing Dendro damage to nearby enemies when the rush ends, causing a Chisel-Light Mirror to form.
Hold: Enters aiming mode to adjust the direction of Alhaitham’s rush attack
Chisel-Light Mirror: When this skill is unleashed, Alhatiham generates one Chisel-Light Mirror, if no mirrors are available, he generates a mirror. Mirrors convert Alhaitham’s normal, charged, and plunging attacks into Dendro damage. When attacks hit enemies, the mirrors unleash a projection attack that deals AoE Dendro damage based on the number of mirrors. The mirrors disappear when Alhaitham leaves the battlefield.
Elemental Burst – Particular Field: Fetters of Phenomena
Creates a Particular Binding Field and deals AoE Dendro damage. If mirrors are on the field, then all mirrors are consumed to increase the number of damage dealt.
