Update Details

I. New Character

5-Star Character “Embrace of Enchanting Dreams” Yumemizuki Mizuki (Anemo)

◇ Vision: Anemo

◇ Weapon: Catalyst

1) An individual who holds shares in Aisa Bathhouse, a spa in Baku, is also a practicing clinical psychologist. Committed to helping individuals overcome their nightmares and achieve mental tranquility.

◆ Elemental Skill: Aisa Utamakura Pilgrimage

As a devoted fan, I find myself drifting into a state akin to Dreamdrift, where I seem to float effortlessly above the ground, moving steadily forward. In this transcendental realm, Yumemizuki Mizuki unleashes Area of Effect Anemo damage on nearby adversaries at periodic intervals. Moreover, she amplifies the Swirl Damage that my comrades deal to surrounding foes. This Dreamdrift state persists until I step off the battlefield or activate her Elemental Skill once more.

◆ Elemental Burst: Anraku Secret Spring Therapy

This ability attracts nearby objects and adversaries, unleashing an area-of-effect (AoE) Anemo damage. Additionally, it summons a Mini Baku that follows the character in use. Periodically, the Mini Baku generates Snacks close to opponents or party members. Once a teammate picks up a Snack, it can either deal AoE Anemo damage or provide healing depending on their current HP. If no one picks up a Snack within a certain timeframe, it will retaliate against nearby enemies with another instance of AoE Anemo damage.

In the upcoming version, the highly-rated character “Yumemizuki Mizuki’s Embrace of Enchanting Dreams” (Anemo) can be obtained from the regular draw “Invitation to Wanderlust.
